contains an important sentence the german government is prepared to spend more money on in europe. with cheaper lawyers essentially. the work on a must see year financial planning medium term financial planning is already well underway now this current phase is going to run out twenty twenty the next one's being planned and in the news tranche we're going to have to look at what the member states. contribution for it bracks it. and what measures need to be put in place here to be quite useful there was plenty of measures that were financed by the u.k. as the twenty eight member states now we're going to be twenty seven member states and of course everyone's going to have to pay a little bit more. and when it comes to the investment budget for the eurozone this is an issue that president mcconnell has posed as well you know if we want to be

paying more into e.u. public coffers then we need to look at whether or not the extra money we're paying can finance. well and what it's supposed to finance exactly and look at the investment that we're trying to achieve. and finally the iraqi instability mechanism is a fund that has several hundred million. years to show that billion euros in it is an issue the very volume of this post is. a major one it's a strong instrument of eve financing. and mr gove's of madam chancellor of the view of the fact that both the finance ministry and the. foreign ministry have got the s.p.d. aren't you afraid that you're going to have to do more towards what mccann wants

then you might want to. buy m forty two when it comes to positioning as. the france scope of me what do you think is going to happen are you going to be pulling the putting on the brakes the whole time to slow down the social democratic ministries and then mr schwartz it would seem then when it comes to your citizens health insurance you haven't been able to do what you wanted but you've got three important ministries here how are you going to defused the impression towards your members that at the end of the day it was more about ministries perhaps your own position and not so much about content. well first of all the mostly year financial framework is dealt with by the foreign ministry and that's nothing new it's been the case for some time now and i've weathered it fine we have to social democrat ministers in the past with parish time work in the first grand

coalition from two thousand and five to two thousand and nine we worked together stream really well. and the first encounter that i had with mr bouck was in fact with the single currency commissioner there where we decided to adhere to the stability of tax and whether or not the ministry is s.p.d. or c.d.u. you can only spend the money you've actually got and we've set ourselves a very clear framework here and naturally we're going to be discussing all of these issues but to be perfectly frank i'm not remotely worried what mr schultz. sure but as we know about smart politics ensued well i think if you read the coalition agreement in detail we've achieved a great deal here the became the cold war we've been massively combative fixed term work contracts without good reason to a large extent but in other areas around labor policy and in terms of the rights of workers councils to forward motion and qualification actually of employees which is

a key part of the game labor market policy of the future we've achieved a great deal of fish so i don't agree with your view things and i think political parties see the physics issues are always linked to the people who are pushing for them you know they should be part of so i think the whole debate about personnel isn't something you can always separate from issues thank you very much for coming along. you know when i don't turn just one of them back and you have been watching their chance i'm going back on her conservatives as well as the head of the social democrats making official what we've already heard a or hours earlier in the day their parties have agreed on a deal to form a new coalition government a chance americans saying that she believes this agreement can provide a foundation for a good and stable government for germany and our political correspondent for

a lot of parts is with us here in studio watching this press conference with us what did you make of first of all what chancellor merkel had to say well she's right i mean it is a stable government could be about to be formed if the s.p.d. members indeed voting that this is a good deal we could see a government by i think what is striking is this is one hundred seventy seven page document i would laying the legislative agenda for the next four years and it is pretty interesting to read through it i have may make it made it through all the way but how many promises they are making in terms of investment they've mentioned several times they are going to spend the big bucks and they are going to make many groups of photos very happy in terms of pens pension years for example or families with children there's going to be a lot of investment small fixes so to say making voter groups happy with

a social democrat leader martin schultz sounded happy he said there's a real stamp of his party on the say greenman do you agree yes i do anglo american had to make a lot of concessions the conservatives had to make a lot of concessions hope poteet lost the interior ministry to the varying conservatives and she lost the finance ministry to the social democrats and she herself admitted that that is a pretty big deal because it has been in the hands of the conservatives for quite a while austerity policies have been extremely important. conservatives especially in terms of the european union. keeping keeping the balance in check there and now with the social democrats we're looking probably at a lot more spending in terms of the european union as well so she had to make a lot of painful concessions and. and his social democrats clearly coming out as the winner out of these coalition talks with three men to taking three

ministries that extremely important to the potty when talking about finances himself probably heading the foreign ministry where he can shape the global policy international policy and also the labor ministry which is extremely important for the traditionally labor union have the social democrats you know we heard chancellor merkel say it wasn't an easy deal but a good one and it was particularly hard for her party to give up the finance ministry in particular how relieved they seem a lot of weary faces today especially after all night talks once again yet they are very relieved i've been covering the talks for about four months now or the struggles surrounding a new german government and it's been we have to remind all of us the longest time ever in post-war german history that germany didn't have a government a stable government in place so really they've been struggling to find a solution and compromises and you could see the relief on all politicians' faces

that these long nights of talks finally over oh well let's get more from our political correspondent melinda crane she was us in that press conference just now listening in a melinda what did you make of what was said. i think. charlotte summed it up quite well i think certainly watching schultz who definitely looked weary but also satisfied i think that he is correct in saying that this contract very much does bear. the imprint of the social democratic party that was something that the social membership social democratic membership had absolutely demanded they were very reluctant to enter these negotiations at all they held a special party conference in order to decide whether to go ahead after the initial exploratory talks at that conference they raised the ante on two very important points for them on health care policy and on labor market policy and we see in the

draft agreement real concessions on both of those points so i think that there negotiators i think the over time was absolutely about these two issues they did more than two days of over time and in the end i think they got some really significant movement from the conservatives and then the other point of course the distribution of the ministries this leaves the social democrats holding some of the most powerful ministries in the german government and for one very core area that is going to be significant namely european policy european union the coalition agreement contains some very significant changes in the german approach to the european union higher investment for for example fighting youth unemployment in europe that's something that the old german finance ministry would have put the

brake on. was always very reluctant to see german taxpayer money flow toward the european union but that will change now the s.p.d. will have the powerful finance ministry as well as the the foreign ministry and i think that will enable acim real steering on the point of the social democrats when it comes to e.u. policy and of course we mustn't forget that martin schultz who is thought to be the next foreign minister the. martin shultz has many many years of experience in brussels so theoretically if he does in fact take that post he will be bringing that to bear so a lot of when they are saying for the social democrats will that be enough to overcome the final hurdle we cannot forget that the s.p.d. party members will have to vote on this agreement about three weeks time. that is the big question martin short's just said in that statement that he hopes the

members will read the contract that they will look at what has actually been decided rather than simply voting on a gut feeling of rejecting a grand coalition but as we know twenty four thousand new members have joined the party in recent weeks a number of them in response to a drive by the party's youth wing to get new members precisely in order to vote no on the ground coalition the new membership represents almost five percent of the party so that is not obviously enough to win on its own but it's it will remain very suspenseful for several weeks until we have the outcome of that vote which is probably not going to be before the end of february early march the chief political correspondent linda crane at that press conference that just took place melinda thanks very much for that we'll be talking about later. and lot are

coming back to you now hearing about all of these concessions and of these the step forward for the social democrats where does this leave chance well i'm going to america well she really had an awful four months we have to say she already failed to reach one coalition agreement with the greens and the liberals late autumn winter but now finally a deal is on the table but it was a hot deal to reach and as you said she had to make several concessions she lost the finance ministry she lost on key issues and that is pretty disastrous for her we have to say though she is staying chancellor so she is down but she's not out and she is going to be the chancellor for the next four years i think on a global level she will remain one of the leading she will remain in her leading role and. world leaders will find this very reassuring that germany

finally sees her as chancellor again on a national level i think she is severely weakened and we'll have to see how that plays out in her role here as chancellor and c.v.s. weakened i'm saying in a way that slowly successes will be probably rising in her potty to replace the potentially we have to remind the viewers she's been in power for twelve years already but for sure this time as chancellor how important do you think this breakthrough is also internationally as you said looking at the stability of germany as the anchor of europe as well well i think a lot of countries and leaders have been waiting for germany to get its act together over the past month and especially if we're looking at french president wanted to push european reforms through so heavily when he came into office and then he was lacking a strong german patna also in terms of the bracks of negotiations so there are

a lot of european issues to discuss and germany has always played a very leading role in the european union as melendez milena mentioned before if indeed becomes foreign minister and the social democrats are taking over the finance ministry that is good news and terms to the european integration it will mean the end of the a stereo to policy for for southern europe and most certainly more investment in european projects we can read that in the coalition agreement so a lot of european leaders certainly will be very happy about the european leaders maybe but what about german voters is this the government they wanted the renewal of this alliance these two political groups coming together again it's definitely not what voters wished for in the beginning i think with the problem with this grand coalition in the long term is that. it is lacking a grand vision for germany of what they want for the next four years and i'm

talking a vision in terms of not just using the easy fixes so we we are seeing in this coalition agreement a lot of presents for certain voter groups for families with children for pension years but what is lacking is that they are looking at the long term fixes germany has apart from doing very very well at the moment economically some major problems ahead in terms of the care of the elderly demographic problems of pens of pension systems and those reforms could easily be done under renewed coalition and we are not seeing any of that in the agreement yet so a lot of big challenges for the next government to face and we're not there just yet because as we said there's another big hurdle for a lot let's take a look at that because despite this breakthrough as we said the two sides have another hurdle before the deal can actually be sealed the coalition deal has to get the blessing of the rank and file members of the s.p.d.

so germany has to wait until that party vote is expected to take about three weeks for an end to months of political uncertainty. angela merkel's fate is in their hands the four hundred sixty thousand s.p.d. members could block another grand coalition between maque of conservatives and the social democrats but who are these people there are far fewer women than men two thirds of all s.p.d. members a male. less than ten percent of s.p.d. members around. the strength the numbers lies with those above sixty. have a university degree even more people with higher education can be found in the pro-business f.t.p. . the green party boasts sixty eight percent of members with degrees. when the s.p.d.

members vote on the grand coalition civil servants will have the most powerful voice as they represent almost half the party membership only every six member of the historically working class party is a blue color. almost half of all members a protestant one has no religious affiliation one is catholic. but they all have one thing in common they will decide whether or not could remain chancellor and that grand coalition. can see some fertile still to overcome the social democratic members of base nearly half a million voting on the deal also the conservative delegates have to vote at a party conference on this agreement so couple of hurdles to overcome here but i think after reading through this coalition agreement there is hope that the

democrats will say yes to that deal all right we'll have to wait and see what happens there in about three weeks times as we said our political correspondent thank you. and for all of your analysis thanks for having me. ok well what does the a business world think about all of these political developments here in germany event this one is there with that the business world doesn't have much positive to say today i don't think through me stinging criticism from various groups the media my engineering association calls the deal lackluster avoid a vision its biggest gripe is that this next government could just be a continuation of what germany already had and we'll the grand coalition the federation of german industries says the treaty doesn't even address the most pressing issues it doesn't provide corporate tax relief over taxes in germany are among the highest in the world plus the lobby group says the digitise ation policies a not comprehensive enough and will not prepare this country for the future. let's go live to daniel corp our financial correspondent who's been tracking this

on the frankfurt stock exchange daniel what's the market reaction there. but i guess the market here is on one hand relief that it seems that will really going to have this government and that new election that these for the moment seem to be off the table this would have most likely resulted in two and the other landslide the markets today has been slowly recovering from the correction that we have seen on wall street and also from a struggling market yesterday blue chip index stocks right now up with one per cent but yes you mention it analysts and investors here are not that excited about what really this new coolish an is going to do also for business a sea of corporate tax a big issue many of them here are saying that they are actually wishing that we would have see that we would have a similar tax system like in the united states with a corporate tax at

a level of about twenty to twenty five percent so yeah they were really hoping for more and daniel is we've been hearing this could herald a shift in euro zone policy the powerful finance ministry could end up going to the coalition partners the social democrats. yeah exactly or shows us actually pretty much respected here among investors remember that he was already holding a ministry position in the past and also when you look a little bit deeper in this document we are getting word that there is going to most likely a european fund that president manuel kong has been asking for already for quite some time to help other european countries that could come for example into a financial crisis as i said in manuel my kong as well as e.u.

commission they have been very much in favor of this and also as investors that's what investors are telling me here as well it's very important that germany is going to have again a strong voice now on the european level there is so much on the agenda such as brac said for example those talks have been very slow and then those latest comments also made recently and by two reason may about the rights of citizens so investors are happy that germany is really back also on the european level ok let's stay on the european level because analysts have been telling me that the commitments in this treaty to reform in europe are strong but we would be hearing a different voice from germany i mean with choice as finance minister it was all about austerity if we get a new finance minister in that finance minister is from the social democrats it would definitely be a different voice how do you think germans will react to that because germans don't

want to see that they're the ones pulling the way that they're the ones working for the southern europeans. yes thank you this is certainly going to be a topic that will be discussed here and will be also creating lots of attention. among the germans but yes it's going to be very interesting because and that's what also investors have been telling me they kind of know what to expect from somebody like scheuer now or laughs was somebody who has not have a was not in this position before so he is kind of like a of written paper pretty much so yeah it's going to be really interesting in what direction he is going to lead the country ok let's see what we can read into it daniel koch for us thanks for the analysis from frankfurt. international markets have recovered from this week's correction european shares are in positive

territory after a big bounce back on wall street overnight the big question is how the dow jones index opens in the next minutes substantial falls rekindle that panic after tumbling as much as seven percent on tuesday japanese stocks enjoyed a robust recovery upbeat corporate earnings from the likes of to you would have helped put more than anything else the balance back in japan and other emerging markets came as investors took cues from a rally on wall street late in the trading day after a choppy session there u.s. investors exchanged panic for perspective following monday's steep sell off sharp downturns can take the air out of a market that may have been doing well for too long and investors can move back in add more feasible prices but analysts warn it isn't exactly going to be back to smooth sailing going forward. from our perspective we had come

far fast without. any rest along the way if you will. and this is an opportunity for for investors to reconfirm not only their their investment thesis and their investment objectives but make sure that they're in a position for a potentially more volatile environment volatility may be making a comeback but improving growth prospects all over the mean very few are expecting a bear market or sustained period of falling stocks but just how volatile will it be. for many investors is literally the million dollar question. and talking about ups and downs the next story which looks fun but actually the woman there i don't know if you can see her expression looks quite terrified the world's first passenger drone made its inaugural flight in the chinese city of. all you have to do is fasten your seat belts then the automated flight system takes over electrically powered drug to take a single passenger

a twenty three minute flight at one hundred kilometers an hour. by announced plans to cooperate with the company behind the drone on to develop self flying taxi. back to sydney and more on that grand deal right ben a reminder now of the story that we've been talking about the country's two biggest political groups have announced that they are now have agreed on a forming a coalition government conservatives thrashed out that deal with the social democrats after a marathon talks here in berlin now the social democrat rank and file they do still have to ratify this agreement and that means we're extending the country's wait for a new government by another few weeks but we have our own political correspondent melinda crane standing by for she has been covering all of this for us outside of the c.d.u. party headquarters so melinda we can't see you yet but if you can hear us so this is a long document some one hundred fifty pages we understand so we haven't had the chance to read through it just yet but what are the most important points to take away

here. the overall title of this coalition is essentially turnaround for europe and turnaround for germany and the way that it was presented today by the party leaders is that it seeks to strike a balance between. giving people a secure basis in their lives whether it's in the area of health care whether it's in the area of work whether it's in the area of pensions so essentially giving them security but at the same time making the country fit for the future in the sense of fit for demographic challenges fit for new forms of business competition due to do juleps digitalisation due to automation so essentially a coalition agreement that seeks to strike the balance between competitiveness and

security and the areas that are absolutely key for that and they were they were listed by the chancellor in her remarks in the in the city you have corridors just now are education first of all an effort to invest in schools there have been a number of criticisms in recent years about neglect of education schools that are physically defective that don't have what they need in order to provide real skills in digital with digitalisation for pupils so all of that one very important chapter of this agreement with a great deal more involvement at the federal level and that was one of the big wishes of the social democrats so when for them there then the area of health again a very key issue for the social democrats they want to see greater equalisation of public and private insurance they are definitely we see clear steps toward that and

a host of other issues as well too short to cover in the time. we have already have his melinda crane thank you very much. and we'll be taking a short break but we'll have much more on the top story and other stories from around the world stay with us. on. necklaces colorful and shiny at the effect example of some doing culture in kenya you can see that this jewelry has a pulse and come to symbolize child marriage and sex are in the beans. josephine county unless some dude has self is trying to break the vicious cycle of tradition

and ignorance. lost childhood in kenya. hijacking the news. more are going wrong the news is being hijacked journalism itself has become a scripted reality show it's not just good versus evil us versus them that's why in one. in countries like russia china churchy people are told is that something and if you're a journalist there and you try to get beyond it you are facing scare tactics intimidation. and i wonder is that where we're headed as well. my responsibility as a journalist is to get beyond the smoke and mirrors it's not just about being clear from balance or being neutral it's about being truthful. when he was born golf and i work you know.

in. the conflict zone this week on conflict zone i mean it's good to talk to robert go back she maestro turkey is removing one of the the a k p she speaks for apology i'm sure you and yours it was so close calling for president out of the government because she was really terribly operations in syria and continues to crack down on civil liberties the true principle like. welcome back you're watching news our top story germany's biggest political parties have announced an agreement to form a coalition government chancellor angela merkel's conservative thrash out the deal with the social democrats after marathon talks here in berlin the social democrats rank and file still have to ratify the agreement extending the country's wait for a new government by another few weeks. and. moving on to some other news now

the mother there next to her husband and that sign says sell breast milk save you want ten if you one for one minute. i mean the couple has two twin baby daughters and one of them was born with a serious condition she's currently in hospital and in an intensive care units the couple needs to raise one hundred thousand yuan which is the equivalent of thirteen thousand euros to pay for the hospital bills there they have a and assistance poorest poverty assistance certificates medical records that show that they are in need of help and they needed to find a solution a way to raise money quickly to pay for their daughter's hospital bills the video was filmed in the streets of. the province in the south east of the country and it's gone viral on the chinese a social media it sparked a big discussion well let's talk more about the discussion because we actually have

our correspondent in beijing mightiest berninger with us right now mathias this is such an extreme gesture is this a typical story in china. well as you said it's an extreme gesture also for chinese means and it's not typical in a way that you would see this frequently happening however cases like these have been on social media from time to time there has been a father last year who offered passers by to beat him with a stick for money so he could raise money for his son there has been a girl last year offering her virginity. on the metro in shanghai on the subway. because she wanted to help to cure her brother's disease. recently there has been a case also in guangdong not far from certain german where parents were not able to raise money they abandoned their child with a letter saying that they would hope that process by which the police and the state

would take care of them because they had used up all their savings most of these people are migrants from rural areas the problem is that migrants do not enjoy the same social security as urban residents. there is a scheme for migrants for for rupe people to. health insurance scheme but it does not cover it covers almost nothing and it has a cover so these costs will never be taken care of so these are isolated cases but of course very troubling on the less what kind of reactions federica have we seen online well as we've heard there are some cracks in the health system particularly when it comes to migrant workers and it's the case of this a father as well so people it's known that people sometimes need to do extreme

things to help their loved ones nonetheless this has sparked a big discussion online and not everyone is sympathetic i we've seen a users commenting on the video saying that that is a vulgar selling. as a vulgar way to ask for help we have an example here a comment from a user who says they should not get married if they're poor not to mention having children they're just creating trouble for themselves and others saying that this mother has lost her dignity by selling her breast milk but of course there are also many people who've expressed supports for this couple and for the incredible effort they're making for their child this user here says for people who criticize this couple you are all spoiled kids who grew up in a privileged environment they have to resort to selling breast milk because they are in need they could have also abandoned their child but they didn't they are the best parents so a lot of people also pointing to the finger to the system that is not able to provide for for everyone coming back to you know with the outcry that we've seen

over this case what are authorities doing to address this problem. can you please repeat the question there was something in the law you were wondering what authorities are doing to address this problem after this outcry that we have seen. china has been to the credit of the government extending basic coverage of medical costs however this problem of health insurance off of health care remains a huge problem and there is this rural urban gap that is cemented by the system if you are a rule resident and you move to the city you will not have the same rights as city people and the government has not been addressing this problem probably it's a problem that has been on for decades and we haven't have seen very little progress on this i haven't seen any reactions to this particular case from the

government from the earth or a tease but there is little hope that hope that hope will come from the side of officials the only hope probably for this family might be that they would be able maybe to raise money via crowdfunding this has worked in the past for some individual cases but the flaws in the system remain and they will remain for a long time why did his correspondent in beijing that he has been here and a federica body our social media editor thank you both very much. all right moving on to sports now and in football the german cup returned last night there was a chance for a fairy tale of david versus goliath ending as byron music munich visit a third division potter born and then there was chance for a fairy tale and. there were no surprises in the david versus

goliath clash of vaunted have the ball in the net first but so that's yet shown now was ruled offside after twenty minutes pine asserted their authority confusion in the box and kings the command took advantage one nil brian. come on turn provide a five minutes later robert leaven dusty with the finishing touch so will. the bavarians were able to take their foot off the gas but that didn't stop the gulf s yahshua kimmage with an ice cold finish their game already decided at the half time whistle after the break an unmarked car in santa lee so not enough for a simple training drill for the guests. in the dying minutes there was still time far in robinson score a brace six mil the final score. client progressing to the semifinals with a nice. match that was quite

a thrashing from by what do you make of that well i mean it's looking more and more like we're going to see byron in this german cup final they tend to make a habit of it they've been in six of the last ten german cup finals and won five of them. and really the best news for byron this season is the team who knocked them out of the cup the last two times they were knocked out of the cup don't meant they've only taken care of door they've already taken care of leipsic earlier in this cup competition still however you can never count the rest of us at the field out and i'm knocking out competition like this and i think especially teams like leverkusen and you know chalco if they get it done tonight will feel like they have every chance of taking down by in a one off counter here's what i. have to say after this win however he had some interesting things. even if so should we if we haven't showed such a good attitude in the school wouldn't have been so hard and we might have even

struggled. because we showed a full quality and i was specifically pleased that the whole team performed well and they proved how much they wanted to make it into the semifinals. i would say so after a six know when they're now looking at the other match mat leverkusen recovered from two goals down to win in extra time for two what did you make of the action on the field there this was an absolutely wild match i mean in the first ten minutes of this game play vertues and we're just playing defense in a totally desperate fashion they had they gave a penalty on a very dumb foul. you know are and johansson chipped leverkusen keeper in great style they were down to nil after ten minutes but you know later coups and have a lot of confidence right now and that mostly comes from the fact that they have a lot of offensive weapons mainly on bailey had been getting it done in the league for them last night it was yulian plant who scored the first goal sort of about

thirty minutes into the game scored another goal in the second half to bring things level they held on to extra time and you know i call him the coach for labor because it had a master stroke he brought on current in extra time and literally on his first touch since entering the game scored the goal to make it three they didn't look back or at all a good match for them and there is more good action coming up but looking ahead to tonight's action shellcode is playing both bergen both teams are coming off the back of disappointing results over the weekend well let's take a look now at who might bounce back. the royal blues hope saturday was a one off riding high at one nil up with twelve minutes to play a red card into late goals so what seemed a certain win turn into a stinging loss against braman their coach says the squad is keeping cool though. you know when you lose a game a bit unlucky late and suddenly everything's that is that's a bit much in my book because we know how to assess this loss and we put more

pressure on ourselves than anyone i'm here for the good times and for the tough losses if. it's not you know. their opponent's votes more to let the lead slip away this past weekend but they held on for a draw the bulls have become draw specialists this season they've taken a single point from twelve of their twenty one games. but on wednesday they know that's not going to be enough you don't know what this is a book called to prevent but this is a cup competition and a knockout games you don't play quite the same way as you do in the bundesliga the way you play away to byron or dortmund or shall go or leverkusen isn't how you'd play against them in the cup and the humidity silva talked with them once on a bill cosby good. sport side playing to win and the shelter team eager to shake off a frustrating defeat a recipe for

a great game in the german cup. match who has the edge here i think it's got to be shaka they are much higher up in the bundesliga table than are false for they have a better squad you know the thing on the other side however is shaka have had some troubles at home recently but then again spoke of had some troubles travelling away from home i mean really the thing that's going to do the best by a shock is if they can get an early goal because both spork just don't score a lot of goals plain and simple they haven't scored more than one goal. in a match since their last cup encounter although it took them all the way to extra time just for both of those goals against nuremberg you know if liberal or if they can keep this one tight and sort of hold shaka to no goals or one goal through normal time maybe they have a chance but i don't see it all right i met her from the sports on the german cup action for us thank you matt and we do have one more item from the football world for you ronald koeman has been appointed as head coach of the netherlands national

team he is the seventh manager in eight years for the dutch coleman has been out of work since being dismissed by average last october after a poor run of form in the premier league he has been tasked with resurrecting dutch football after the one successful team failed to qualify for the last european championship and the upcoming world cup in russia. coming back now to the top story that we've been following for you at this hour germany's biggest political parties have announced an agreement to form a coalition government chancellor angela merkel called the deal her conservatives struck with the social democrats a basis for a good in stable government while social democrat leader martin schultz said the pact would bring fundamental change for both germany and europe his party's rank and file still have to ratify the agreement extending the country's wait for a new government by another few weeks. and we have

a lot of parts back with us here in studio for more analysis on this or look to what did you make of those two statements that this is the basis for a good and stable government and that it will fundamentally change german do you think that's true well first of all i think it is basis for a stable government which was about time we've been waiting for this for four months ever since the election and september is this going to change germany definitely not so we are seeing continuation of the last four years of the grand coalition they've been governing for the last four years together they've accomplished quite a few things there but they haven't fundamentally changed germany and this is what we are seeing now and this coalition agreement they are not going to be huge reforms or the deep underlying issues such as the pension system here and they haven't outlined great foreign policy proposals or things like that but we're rather seeing easy fixes to to underlying problems and basically it catering to a certain groups of voters spending

a big bucks for families with children of pence and pensioners for example so it's basically a continuation as what you're saying how problematic is that because the political landscape in germany has changed it definitely has changed every sense of the right wing populist alternative for germany has entered the palm and parliament in september and they have been pushing the debate here in germany to the right we are seeing that also in the cohen. agreement the agreement they freed on refugees on family reunification for refugees for example you can clearly see that that is not a big liberal step but rather catering to the right also the interior ministry from now on in the hands of the bavarian conservative a bit more conservative than manacled c.d.u. is going to be called the ministry of home ministry that is definitely catering to to the a of devote to get them back into the middle and i'm not sure if

that is a good step if that could work but most certainly this is changing the political landscape and the problem also is if you have two strong parties in the middle governing the fringes are growing we've been seeing that in other european countries and that is of huge concern the f.t. that you just mentioned the alternative for germany the far right party entered the government for the first time in september and they will now become if disagreement does indeed go forward in the past by the members as we said they would be the biggest opposition party how significant is that that is definitely significant there chairing three commissions and parliaments that are very important commissions for example the budget committee the m.p.'s have elected them as the chairman for those groups they have the rights as the biggest parliamentary opposition group chair those and it will drag the conversation more to the right

we've already seen that during a hollow commemoration last week when the it was clearly not well as involved as the other parties and parliament looking at bad and all of the challenges that the two biggest political groups have faced in the past few weeks in coming together in forming a government do they have the political capital show up. to move forward to push through these reforms that they are now promising in this agreement to form a government well they do have the majority in parliament and i think they are going to turn towards a legislative agenda now and start with the most urgent reforms that they consider the most urgent reforms for example in terms of labor and health care so i think they do have the political capital if we're looking at i think she has had to make some huge concessions have conservatives had to giving up the finance ministry

is just one of them and she definitely comes out weakened on a national level out of these coalition talks and out of these struggles of the past four months to find a government so her standing nationally as a chancellor is definitely weakened on a global scale i don't think that will matter i think her role internationally is still seen as a she still seen as a strong chancellor forward germany and. so just time for one more short question to show to when are we going to actually see the new german government start well this is going to take some time first of all the s.p.d. membership will vote on it that's going to happen probably was in the next three weeks so we should have a government if everything goes well until easter by easter let's hope that is the case our political correspondent sheila departs with us here in studio with us so on our continuing coverage of this breakthrough on coalition talks here in germany thank you very much for charter for your analysis thanks for having me. and you're
