9:02 am
the republican people's party received around thirty one percent of the vote while cell had seen demo tash of the pro kurdish h.t.t.p. has pulled in just over eight percent. though everyone has said the governing alliance led by his islamic conservative party had also secured a parliamentary majority with his dual victories heir to won will assume sweeping new powers added to the presidency last year and a referendum also of those. one nation one flag one country the crowd chant led by one man rushed up to have added one has tightened his grip on power in turkey off to winning sunday's presidential poll he thanked his supporters in ankara after the electoral commission declared his victory. called the should of the winner of this election
9:03 am
is democracy. me lou. our nation. the winners of this election every one of the eighty one million citizens. his supporters were overjoyed. then. we were at the capital of democracy and human rights the elections were perfect we've won a victory again i defy you bad one is the best president the world can also. not celebrating as the main opposition c.h.p. party adeline's main challenger. had earlier warned of irregularities and accuse the state run news agency of manipulating the numbers inches backers were dismayed . which is misinformation and we're devastated we already have no freedom of opinion on civil rights if the system now changes for the worse we're finished we
9:04 am
should only for a country. when ushers in a new political system under which she becomes head of both state and government at one end says this will bring prosperity and stability to the country following a failed coup attempt to years ago but critics say the new system will further erode democracy in turkey. let's get more now on the selection from correspondent dorian jones who is standing by with the latest in istanbul and dorian as we just heard there the selection very much being seen as part of turkey's transition from a parliamentary session to a presidential one with the heir to expanding his power what is this likely to mean for the country. well it is seen is a major consolidation of presidents powers he can now rule by decree which carries a power of law all the ministers now are appointed by the president and are
9:05 am
accountable to him the role of parliament is significantly diminished even the position of prime minister no longer exists and the other one's control and power over turkey's top judiciary is also further confirmed with him now having a say on the appointment of nearly all members of turkey's constitutional court court that means there are virtually no checks to his power now he has a complete free hand to accelerate his programs both internally and externally. and of course he has his critics in this one of which is the opposition the opposition parties which have raised doubts in fact about the accuracy of the results how strong is their challenge while in the earlier following the announcement of the result there was a lot of anger because the chief challenger more i mean just had said that not all the votes had been counted in particular strongholds in the main cities there were
9:06 am
pictures on social media of huge numbers of sacks of a purportedly uncounted votes but the problem later on was that the opposition had created an independent means of assessing and counting the votes and that did concur with the results given by the turkey's new main state news agency so there was really nowhere for ensuring the opposition to go and the message sent by injure to a turkish news anchor he said the third one had one although he maintained that the election itself was very unfair. and that's of course something that probably the other big winner in terms of the opposition parties would also agree with that's the procrit and i just want to talk a little bit more about them for a moment because you know that their candidate who is running from jail came in third and his party will now be the second largest opposition party in parliament dorrian what's behind their strong performance well i think is a combination of factors for sure that there was
9:07 am
a lot of discontent in turkey's pre-dawn the kurdish southeast over this in an unprecedented military crackdown across the region and also into syria against kurdish rebels that didn't play well with turkey's kurdish vote even among supporters of one who are traditionally a strong force in that region on top of that you also saw the unprecedented move by turkey's main opposition to give votes to the h.t.t.p. there was a message from the from the leader of the main opposition that they should support them because they were seen as key to diminishing the role of. a party if they had failed not to enter parliament all those votes and the palm tree seats would have transferred to other one that didn't happen so they saw that as a major success on their part daryn jones in a sample thank you. and here in germany the vast majority of the turkish community through its weight behind president won partial results results show aired one has taken sixty five point seven percent of votes among turks in germany
9:08 am
a higher percentage than within turkey itself and as heir to once triumph became clear his supporters took their jubilation to the streets. they count themselves among added ones most loyal supporters dozens streamed on the streets is the result then gathering in the heart of palin as the hopes of being realized over two thousand kilometers away. i'm really excited very happy if i can put it into words if i like the president and i support him someone else germany should recognize that he's not a dictator we have a great president and everybody should see and have that. just a few streets away a very different picture. tempers run high as ed one opponents came face to face with those who helped secure his return to power. came to a launch turkish community palin's critz burg is in many ways
9:09 am
a microcosm of turkish society with people of every political stripe living side by side and with one point four million people in germany eligible to vote it was clear they could play a key role in shaping turkey's future for the minority ed one opponents the stakes couldn't have been higher with no standing to despair as the results became clear. i know what i think any hope for democracy is being extinguished it will just be a dictatorship a one man rule. more disappointment this time of the gathering for supporters of the pro kurdish h.t.t.p. party. he's a mention this is not there are these people who stand by at one's party and don't feel they belong in germany we should think about what has gone wrong here for people to still feel so connected to turkey. the techies community here in germany is now facing a very different turkey to the one they once knew
9:10 am
a facts not lost on anyone supporters as they celebrate a new chapter in turkish politics. the leaders of sixteen e.u. countries have stressed their willingness to find a solution to the blocs longstanding migration debate but they ended a last minute emergency meeting in brussels on sunday without any concrete decisions a full wide summit is coming up on thursday german chancellor angela merkel is seeking short term deals with other e.u. member states to cope with the migration crisis for german chancellor angela merkel who is in brussels looking to have fellow e.u. leaders for backing on migration austria's chance in a sebastian could stake some more hardline approach but there is some common ground between merkel and french president emanuel my car. the era of open borders across the whole of the e.u. seems to be over more and more member states are demanding more rigorous security like here on the boat garion turkish border the leaders are united on strengthening
9:11 am
libya's coast guard so that migrants can no longer travel to europe by sea and hardliners want to create more reception centers like this one in libya far from the borders some leaders did however voice concerns. because of on the phone we have our values. and every time we betray them we do damage italian prime minister giuseppe conti once an overhaul of the so-called dublin agreement under which asylum seekers must be processed in the country they arrive italy says that will ensure a more equal distribution across the e.u. and open the door for bilateral agreements on the repatriation of migrants and that's exactly what angle of merkel once she does not want to send refugees back to another each member state without that country's agreement after the talks merkel was optimistic. wherever possible of course we want to find european
9:12 am
solutions and where this is not possible we want to bring together those who are willing and work out a common plan of action. every willing european partner strengthens michel back home in her dispute with her conservative c.s.u. sister party at the end of this week the chancellor must be able to show them what she has achieved and with the clock ticking as we just heard there we have our correspondents max often standing by in brussels and hans brandt with the very latest from berlin and max i'd like to turn to you first because these talks are over now what do you make of the outcome. well there's substance and appearance as for appearance medical try to show that she's trying to tackle the problem that she's trying to bring something home to berlin that's not up to us to judge if she really made a point there in the second part is the substance and you might be surprised there's a little more to that meeting than meets the eye first of all the telling ins were
9:13 am
there that's important because they are of course the country where most migrants arrive in the european union and they have a populace government that feeds off of simple solutions but they acknowledged that this is complex so this is a step in the well in the right direction if you work for the e.u. institutions and then there was a summary from the e.u. commission who led that meeting on sunday night where they outlined a couple of measures that they would like to take at the at the summit that we have at the end of the week and they all focus on what we just heard in that report external border control maybe even reception centers outside of the e.u. beefing up the whole operation with a lot more money giving more money to african countries where a lot of those migrants are coming from so it appears the path forward here is no longer having a comprehensive european solution but focusing on those things where everybody can agree on and not letting the migrants come to the european union in the first place
9:14 am
and the stakes are really high as as we heard a bit earlier hans and i'd like to talk about that with you because if chancellor merkel doesn't succeed in hammering out a european solution by the end of the week she's going to face serious trouble here in berlin with her sister party the c.s.u. what are her chances but you say. well at the moment obviously i'm going to moscow is back in berlin back in germany and there will be regular consultations with her christian democratic party today on these issues she will consult with her cabin that during the course of the week but in effect everybody in the party and market herself have been saying we have to wait for this european union summit coming up towards the end of the week and she continues to put the emphasis on the european solution so in a sense why this week is a crucial week it's also a week of kind of wait and see of trying to arrange things push things along in the background on the european level while here in germany people are kind of on
9:15 am
tenterhooks to try and see what's what's going to happen what's going to come out of this but certainly it's a crucial week for i'm going to america. people are very very tense and on that european level max some analysts they're talking about a europe of separate nations stressing that unity seems to be at stake and that soon there could even be border controls back again what do you make of that. well to be fair we already have border controls on some borders for example between austria and germany not systematically but that's beyond what you're referring to the so-called shang and system that guarantees the free movement of people in many european union countries so we already have that because of first of all migration and terrorism back then many people linked at the height of the whole crisis and we have more terrorist attacks in the european union now the numbers are speak a different story migration is down from the peak and two thousand and fifteen
9:16 am
terrorism is also down at least the terrorist attacks in the european union but still this topic is very important to many people in the us because many populist parties feed off of that but don't worry the schengen system just yet it's dear to many europeans they feel it's an achievement this free movement so we're not there yet and it's here to the chancellor as well and hands i'd like to ask you how do you think that this week will go down in history is this the last days of chancellor angela merkel in office. recall it said that for certain yet but certainly there is a chance of out and not surprisingly enough surprising enough and it is a chance that it is going to be her own the sister party the christian social union and very that is in fact going to engineer the end of her political career and that is really quite ironic think seeing that it's not really an opposition quality at the moment the bavarians don't seem to be prepared to budge at ole unless their
9:17 am
demands a match in some way. is likely not to be able to push through her policies and if that is the case she may have to fire her interior minister from bavaria and that would lead probably to the collapse of the government so there is a real chance that this could happen but at the moment we still have to wait and see at the moment we can say that this is in fact the case here it was bronze in berlin max hope and in brussels thank you to both of you meantime concern about the state of germany's economy is growing and helen hunt for has the story that's right sorry very much seems that the german economy will be facing some headwinds this year and now the economic research institute if i recently come gemini's twenty eighteen grateful calls to one point eight percent down from two point six percent committed escalating trade skirmish between the united states and the european union. it's been a tricky year for germany twenty eighteen began with an economic growth slowdown
9:18 am
between march and january the economy only group zero point three percent that's half the rate recorded in the previous quarter and the outlook isn't great germany is facing headwinds both at home and abroad. is dealing with a political crisis a very in coalition partners c.s.u. have taken a tougher stance against immigration that could bring down the government and force new elections something that would in bold well with investors add to that the dispute between the u.s. and its major trade partners washington has threatened even more tariffs in retaliation to brussels new levies and american products experts say germany would be the big loser any new tariffs on vehicles would hit it more than other e.u. countries. and joining me here in the studio now is dr fata tire from the
9:19 am
association of german chambers and industry and commerce thank you very much for joining us this morning said germany the industrial powerhouse is facing increasing trade tensions is this the end of the party for the country's economy. still the domestic driving forces are performing consumption is on the rise the labor market is still going well investments are picking up but yes international activities are stumbling and it seems so that the worst is yet to come to what extent is the united states to blame for this so down that we've already seen because i mean let's be honest the german government has also had its fumbling this year which haven't really helped christ. it's not only the usa there is a certain degree of mistrust in several governments let's say after the financial market crisis that means now for a decade ago that and we are up serving that there are non-tariff barriers
9:20 am
making you have bringing noise into the into the trade activities so. protectionism is on the rise and this is now the new form of escalation of what we are receiving from them from now you point to that period off to the financial crisis and indeed developed pointed out that germany's second an economic miracle is over compared to years of steady growth since the financial crisis to world war two and the you know reconstruction period that would you say that that's a fair assessment. you know we are if in an absolute we are at the crossroads where to go they have to break away off the us a from multilateralism and the hope is that there are many other countries and emerging market countries including china that they believe in open markets although they do not behave like
9:21 am
this but the hope is that that we form some form of correlation and that the usa are stepping back from the course they are now on the way and this is escalating the conflict the german economy at an economic crossroads currently talk to fica tired from the association of german chambers of industry and commerce great to have your analysis thank you. german companies b.m.w. and siemens who joined us in voicing their concerns about staying and investing in britain the companies all cite uncertainty surrounding a post break as it deal with the european union their criticism was magnified by a new by a new survey among business leaders in six e.u. countries maybe hoffa eight of eight hundred executives polled by the north firm baker mackenzie so there had reduced investment in the u.k. since the briggs it aeronautics company said last week that a no deal scenario might lead to it moving thousands of jobs abroad.
9:22 am
sunday was the highest scoring day of the world cup so far and we have became bridge from v.w. sports to break down all the goals and wow there were a lot of goals we have to first of course talk about england well yet this was one of those rare occasions i was an englishman where you get to come on to speak to guys during the world cup with a smile on your face yes it was only panama yes they were expected to win comfortably but it was still an incredibly impressive performance regardless south side and it gives me great pleasure to introduce this one let's take a look. jane glynn showed their dominance from the start john stones opened the scoring and just minutes later harry came doubled the lead a sublime shot by jesse link up made it three. before johnstone's got his brace in the forty eight minutes. of my ahead of the break
9:23 am
carry came made it five completing his chicken early in the second time off. panama celebrates a late consolation like a winner but it was england who victorious six one the final score their highest ever well cup win. and there were just as many goals in perth for a trite but those games they played out differently indeed there were another seven goals in the two remaining games of the day for group say japan's clash with senegal was very different to poland's clash with colombia in the first it was a very tightly contested affair very dramatic to the end and the second there was a clear when i say let's have a look at how those games turned out. yeti may not have the be open to scoring off to forty minutes konstantinos was a better team and went on to two more goats on the continent the second time now the masako and one plugged in securing the impressive three spalding i cannot imagine sutton's
9:24 am
a group potentate to make it out of the group stage shows a certain time in a row and the group leaders clash sunday and monday it opens a scoring for senegal the sayings to some kamikaze defending by japan. the summer roy blue was the first shot on goal is true takashi zen's the youngest player on the pitch nineteen year old moose of a gear we still it's in the full senate go only for japan to level again through case and honda to all is the finest goal. so a lot of action there and we actually know that today is really crucial phase for the world cup with is being played in group a and b. and as you can see over my shoulder here we're actually being joins live from moscow now our correspondent jonathan crane is standing by with some more analysis on that so tell us jonathan what do we have to look forward to today. yes the final round of group stage games taking place today four in toto first in
9:25 am
group a and then followed by two in group b. they have to kick off at the same time to avoid any kind of funny business and collusion between the sides so what's at stake well not so much in group a because egypt and saudi arabia are already out there just playing for pride they want to watch the russian against uruguay to decide who will win that great victory or a draw for the russians will see them and just do just that it's a lot closer and therefore not more complicated spain and portugal are the favorites to advance but don't discount iran if they beat portugal and they will go through at the expense of christiane the rinaldo and his team mates and what a story that would be and then we know you've been in russia for two weeks now how would you describe the mood there. i think it's right to say the mood has changed a lot savor the last few weeks russians were always looking forward to hosting this tournament but that was tempered by
9:26 am
a degree of pessimism about the national sides chances now of course with russia on the verge of topping the group that's been replaced by an outpouring of pride in the national team as one newspaper wrote we don't have to bite a finger nails anymore we can actually be excited about the football and i think when news or draw the russian fans with sammy be excited tonight when we were speaking to said he expected a electric atmosphere here in moscow he said that moscow used to be a village and now it's like international fans coming and joining in the celebrations you have to expressed a bit of shock at how well the team was doing he said maybe someone was putting them under pressure maybe that someone working in the building right behind me on that note don't forget that russia is emerging from a state sponsored taping scandal for any kind of positive sporting news is very welcome so that some eyebrows have been raised about some statistics that show that russian players have run further than any other tournament in russia coach stanislav treasure self was asked about that in his press conference yesterday and
9:27 am
he said it was down to motivation and motivation yeah exactly a lot of people though motivated a lot of teams and just briefly before we go i'd like to ask you who do you see advancing tonight well as jonathan beautifully summarized just now there's there's a there's a big game between you and why and russia and i fancy year ago i just edge that group the group b. games i think it'll be a little bit more straightforward i fancy spain spain comfortably and iran even though they have a chance of going through i fancy portugal to edge it and go through with spain in group b. and cambridge joining us here in studio and jonathan crane with the very latest from moscow thank you so much to both of you. you're watching t.v. news we have more coming up at the top of the hour in the meantime don't forget you can always get the latest news and information are around the clock on our web site at e.w. dot com and you can follow us on social media i'm sarah palin for lead thanks for watching.
