this is you know we do is lie for a role in the moment of truth or germany's domestic intelligence chief is being replaced martin pays the price for meddling in politics and for his controversial response to the far right chemists riots were at the german chancellor rhee also coming up it looks like poison this member of the russian protest group pussy riot is in intensive care in a berlin hospital doctors say it's highly plausible that justice for so often was poisoned but their confidence field recover and president trump is china with more

terrors the biggest wave yet new punitive cuties have been announced on some two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese imports beijing has promised to get back. home while iraq is great to have you along everyone the german government is removing the controversial head of its domestic intelligence agency. and has been under fire for weeks after he appeared to downplay violence against migrants during recent protests in the city of chemists but the case triggered a disagreement within the german government officials now say mohsen will be given a job with the interior ministry instead. political correspondent kate brady is covering developments for us kid mr moss's removal from the post as head of

germany's domestic intelligence age as the head of that intelligence agency hasn't been entirely unexpected but how surprising is this outcome because there have been rumors floating around in this afternoon into the evening of a compromise being on the table from the conservative coalition leaders and that that was evidently presented to social democrats need to and they are not as this afternoon so it doesn't come as a complete surprise but at the same time this has taken quite a bizarre ten zero because this is a very curious compromise of course mohsen has indeed been fired from his position as the domestic intelligence chief in germany but effectively he is now being promoted and will now be working as a state secretary in the interior ministry of course not going to be hearing from

the coalition party leaders this evening and we are expecting to hear more details from the interior minister. tomorrow and of course people will also be asking is what did the social democrats get in return for agreeing to this compromise is because they went into these talks today with a very strong aim of making sure that mohsen was out which of course has been achieved but with this very bizarre compromise in a minute we're going to talk a little bit more about this compromise solution but first of all talk to us a little bit about mr moss's new position. well effectively this is a promotion for moss and he will be one of several state secretaries in the german interior ministry which actually brings him close on a professional level. for the german interior minister so this is to be a state secretary in

a ministry in germany is effectively one of the highest position that you can hold in a ministry without being the leader of it so this really is a promotion for mohsin because as i mentioned we're expecting to hear more details of exactly what capacity what role he will play in the hold in the interior ministry to morrow from the interior minister. i kid is this the type of solution that allows all those involved to save face. well certainly i think it's fair to say that all every every party leader involved in the governing coalition will no doubt be coming out tomorrow claiming victory after these talks and then of course it's very interesting to see exactly who is the winner in this it has certainly allowed merkel and they will vote to save face but at the end of the day it's invasive as to how effective this will be and

how this is being already we're seeing a lot of backlash from politicians from members of parliament here in germany particularly online some people describing the outcome as a fraud as a fiddle and that speedy members we've also m.p.'s story we've seen reacting on twitter especially saying that if mohsin is holding one of the top positions any is if he isn't he should be out and many all ready and he's calling definitely criticizing this decision. we're all sort of kind of they're just doing this so the recent developments but how big is the rift would you say in this coalition and can they carry on this way from stress test a stress test. exactly as you say this is a recurring problem especially when it comes to migration policy and it is the thorn in the grand coalition side which simply will not go away of course this

coalition has only existed since march this year and so far they've not really been able to implement any of their kind of standard domestic policy they've always being kept busy with international issues and also with this issue of migration policy time and time again i think it's only a question of time until this issue comes up once again. political correspondent reporting thank you. meanwhile income that's the court has released one of the suspects being held for the murder of daniel hilik which sparked you know for violence in this eastern german city last month where police said there was no forensic evidence to link the twenty two year old iraqi man known as use of a to the fight fatal knife attack on news of the killing lead to mob violence so you may recall him round of street attacks in the state of saxony last month. and
