2:00 pm
live. this is d. w.'s coming to you live from berlin a stop gap prime minister party to drop the search economist carla carter then he has been named to head to get a good government by the president that's on the populist parties bid to form a government collapses we go live to role also coming up. the risk your guess is your board and image and to scale the building to save a young child gets a meeting with the president a jungle book and french citizenship. and economic development and kills
2:01 pm
corporation with the e.u. and still he prepares to vote next month the top opposition we detailed steve jobs this is what he wants to bring to this country. hello and welcome i'm on the thought she the man who will become italy's new caretaker prime minister has promised to do all he can to steer the country out of its political crisis a short while ago carlo confidentially was handed a mandates to form an interim government it followed the collapse over the weekend of what could have been italy's finest populist administration quarterly promised that he if he wins a vote of confidence in parliament he would hold fresh elections in italy by the beginning off next speaking as
2:02 pm
a short while ago today he sought to reassure introduce partners in the european union. when the local color dialog with europe to defend our interests is essential we can do better than we did in the past but it has to be a constructive dialogue fully acknowledging that as a founding member our continuous participation in the eurozone remains essential your own. correspondent is standing by for us in siena from what can look on to releasing italy's position in the e.u. and the euro zone is at stake the floor about what he said. this further i.m.f. official who's now been put in this position as being the prime minister designate he's clearly stated and assured that there would be a prudent management of finances and that he will come forward fairly shortly with a list of ministers and present his program to the lower house of parliament as well as to the senate and that will be put forward to
2:03 pm
a vote of confidence now if he does win that vote of confidence he expects to continue to let you use the end of the year to get the budget passed and then there will be pressure elections at the beginning of twenty nineteen but if he doesn't get that vote of confidence which at the moment is looking to be the case he said that there could be elections right after august in the beginning of september he'll don't meet it very clear that he himself will not be running in any of these elections so it's pretty much a caretaker role getting an economist in technocrats to try and bring this government towards fresh elections now but the two euro skeptic parties which are trying to form a coalition government say they are being cheated out of their mandate are they right. well there are views out there though their supporters believe that you know they've decided to make a will work it together these two populist parties which are actually a very differing views but they put forward their program and they feel that
2:04 pm
they've been cheated on it by the president essentially veto their suggestion for a euro skeptic finance minister now you could say that perhaps they have a point because the president stepped in but that said the president was well within his constitutional right to do so the president can reject any name that is presented to the to them they however insisted on sticking with that name there is a view in rome right now saying that perhaps that was the leader of the league that wanted to push this because essentially wanted to go for fresh elections but of course lots of discussion here in italy as this term all continues and we see my fear is a caretaker government what will it look like probably a lot of technocrats economists call a academics perhaps coming together to lead this government towards lead this country towards fresh elections italians as a whole perhaps are going to be very frustrated by this they didn't see
2:05 pm
a government form a more than two months after the last elections and now you have this as well so really a lot of frustration a lot of comments out and social media frustrated with some frustrated with what the president has done others saying that it's important to stand by him because really really he's looking they believe for the rights of the italian people they're saving more importantly as well as the future of the country the moderates on the other hand though had taken a dive rise in sea monkey in rome thank you very much. so more political turmoil in italy monica is with me how investors taking it monica as we just heard the markets not looking too good right now but having said that i'm rita the investors say that turmoil is still better than an anti euro government and therefore investors were heaving a sigh off relief at first but markets remain cautious as italy is far from being out of the woods just yet before talks to form
2:06 pm
a new coalition government broke down ratings agency moody's threatened to come to italy's debt rating citing risk that that new government would weaken its public finances and retreat from previous reforms italy holds the world's third largest public debt and its vulnerable to a rise in refinancing costs. i will more on that story i'm joined by fed and fish the who is the chief economist at the german institute for economic research good to have you with us and i said that investors heaved a sigh of relief because that market rally we saw earlier today has somewhat slowed down didn't last for long does this have anything to do with the new interim premier the former i.m.f. official well i guess there is a certain skepticism that qatar really can actually turn things to the better because the structural situation for policymakers in italy is not so easy these
2:07 pm
days i guess there is a lot of skepticism and even if he has six months maybe more to to verge on a roof on reforms for the tell you an economy it is quite clear that in the next election results will be again populist parties with a majority which can in turn lead to the same problems which we seem to have overcome in the last few days so i guess this is just a very short period where we're brits can take some breath. right i mean we're used to political upheaval in italy it's never really running smoothly for long there but this is a different story this time and i remember what greece was in big big trouble and we were faced with a looming brics it a lot of economists were extremely alarmed about the wider implications. what about italy in a in a similar position. in a way you just mentioned it what people alarmed about the situation in greece are
2:08 pm
the wider implications meaning that the crisis could spill over from greece to italy and other southern european countries so the words were not so much about greece some five years ago worries will more about the fact that crisis might spill over into other markets like the tell you markets and in that sense we are now in that exactly that situation that we feared five years ago it was not exactly a spillover it's like a homemade crisis they are having into now they cannot really attribute this to the situation in greece anymore but we are exactly in that situation which we actually feared five years ago that italy might go down the road and that italy might run into serious troubles and this is exactly what markets are currently observing so i mean it is debt is huge and if it's silly. to be governed by an ad to a government to coalition or after fresh elections perhaps
2:09 pm
a single party that is anti european is the euro strong enough to handle such a situation frankly at this stage i fear not i guess if the actually exits from the monetary union this would probably be the end of the euro itself and if markets feared that other countries could follow like greece like portugal this could really result in a tremendous crisis for the world as a whole. in a sense this. the only good news today that the new government the interim government gives us some time to reform the structures of the euro area as a whole and to prepare markets and prepare the institutions of the euro area for such a crisis in italy like changing the banking system provided actual solid foundations for support of the banking system across euro area borders in
2:10 pm
a way so these are changes that are overdue for a long time and are very urgent now because we have this window of opportunity of a few months at least until the end of a federal a goal still the italian holiday when we might face fresh election and who knows what the outcome is until then headed out to fish not chief economist at the german institute for economic research thank you so much for joining us in the studio thank you. on the european union has proposed monday a sweeping ban on single use plastic products in a bid to cut down on the twenty six billion tons of plastic waste it produces every year this could hail the end of single use products like straws plastic plates and cups these may now be replaced with environmentally sound alternatives across europe e.u. member states and i also have to pay a fee for every kilogram of plastic waste they don't recycle.

2:18 pm
a modern social democratic party but they also follow a nationalist approach they draw their support from secularist voters most of all in western turkey cities like is neo on telly these are their strongholds and yes they announced what an engine as their presidential candidate just recently a man who has been in turkish politics for many years but hasn't had the chance to make it to the big stage yet until now and he clearly tries to present himself as an alternative to miss to add on he says i will bring turkey back on the reform track i will repair strained relations with the european union he also attacks mr outline for his mega projects and status symbols mr injure for example says as president he will not use the huge presidential palace and brother to turn this building into a university so democracy justice and economic reforms these are the major promises missed in jamaica's during his campaign but talking about economic reform
2:19 pm
the economy is a big issue in the upcoming election this as a turkish guard and say the leader has lost more than twenty percent of its value against the dollar and the euro since the start of the let's let's have a listen to what you had to say about the economy turkey is now a free market economy and you can bring your money but the government is considering. any investor come in the current situation even turkish investors don't invest money in turkey. they all move their capital elsewhere. you can't regulate the economy with policing measures when we get elected we will solve these problems in three months by working with experts and applying universal principles and laws. so yes a specific message for his supporters but you know what head of inches john says against president john in next month's election. well the
2:20 pm
economic situation here is definitely a huge topic for many people but there is not going to be an easy solution i'm sure where an engine knows that as well what are his chances i mean he is seen as a charismatic guy someone who passionately speaks to people so on this level when it comes to motivating people he's certainly seen as a man who can challenge ms to add one but nobody really things mr inject can get the necessary fifty percent of the votes in the first round of elections so the opposition's best hope is that misses out on will not get these fifty percent as well and therefore be forced into a runoff against a single opposition candidate but let's remember this election is again happening under a state of emergency which has all kinds of implications for candidates and campaigns rights groups criticize the media landscape here is overwhelmingly in support of the government in support of mr adlon so many people here fear that these elections
2:21 pm
are not going to be fair elections now you are standing in gezi park where five years ago today there were massive protests people have come out to demonstrate against a controversial development project planned for this popular park and the protests turned violent after a ride police car with protesters using tear gas and water cannon the government stuff response spark nationwide protests that people wanted about what they saw as turkish president. lives to was. being their rights and press freedom you know five years later what remains of the angle to give a protest of two thousand and thirteen doesn't still resonate with the people there . oh yes people are talking about what's happened five years ago they shared their hopes and fears their emotions that made them actually become part of that dizzy movement as it's often referred to they showed videos their
2:22 pm
share they share photos but they do so most mostly privately or on social media on twitter for example because this area where i'm at right now the guese park in the surrounding taksim area is actually off limits to demonstrators now there is police twenty four seven making sure similar protests won't happen again so if the give me time was about hope hope for change for many people the dominant mood now is does illusion and my feeling my impression is that opposition parties here are now trying to ignite that spark of hope again and trying to mobilize people around this . in istanbul turkey thank you very much. will power kept a fine we can force trillion multi-sport by becoming the first australian driver to win the prestigious indy five hundred after his compact daniel dick yaddo one
