again after a chance to remove her domestic intelligence chief only to promote him to a more powerful post hans-georg was under fire for contradicting the chancellor about the extent of recent far right violence and had the backing of merkel's rebellious interior minister horse a hole who also leads one of the coalition parties but medical center left coalition partners the social democrats demanded basons ouster the party leaders agreed on the fate of a crisis meeting on tuesday but that compromise is already testing the government's unity. the decisive meeting at the chancellery was held in the late afternoon for days people could only speculate whether the head of germany's domestic intelligence agency would stay. the coalition party does reached agreement within two hours and will leave his post but he will actually be promoted to the office of deputy minister at the interior ministry he will and more than before.

junior coalition partners the social democrats have demanded mawson's removal but party leaders finally agree to his job change instead the concession has a poll to other party members. as i'm talking shit it's a slap in the face to people who take responsibility for their actions and who if they make a mistake don't get promoted or even face negative consequences i think the price is too high for the survival of the coalition. leaders of the opposition have also greeted the news with school on. a pawn sacrificed in their game to save the coalition. the head of germany's domestic intelligence agency came under heavy criticism for a public statement following right wing riots in the eastern city of ken that's massive as to that the video being circulated did not necessarily show mobs hunting

down individuals but had possibly been manipulated to spread fake news musson statement directly contradicted chancellor america from the start she had condemned what she referred to as a hostile mob the only politician to defend mass and was his boss interior minister . who heads the conservative c.s.u. one of marco's coalition partners. is expected to describe the details of my sins new position today and name his successor at germany's domestic intelligence agency . well for more of a spring in our political correspondent much biljana caution help us out here much more. we've got the chancellor and her main coalition partner no longer trusting him to remain as head of the domestic intelligence service so they make him deputy head of the entire interior ministry with even more power what's going on here well the rationale of the coalition partners have given us yesterday is that every

single party within the coalition government has gotten what they want to so these social democrats the center left coalition partners said they wanted out of the office they didn't want him any longer to be the head of the domestic intelligence service they've got another sense he's removed from that particular post the interior minister who has always backed mohsen has always said he has my trust and i don't want him to be gone kate within his ministry so he still has severe. period of mass and that is the only way to trash a fact and not go who was forced to act on this particular issue has acted on it so in a sense. the compromise is every one of them is happy the question of is is it a good compromise and what does the rest of the world market and is it good to keep mohsen in general in a public office well that is indeed the question this is a problem within chancellor merkel's coalition politically but remains

a hugely controversial figure what does the rest of the country make of that exactly so he remains a controversial figure we haven't heard anything yet in for example on an investigation on the way he's conducted his position so there have been accusations of on several different fields there's been a question of how he's been working together with the far right if the policy that been questions in the way certain things have been investigated within the domestic intelligence service there's no announcement of an investigation on his political conduct yet and the other things of course there's been quite the critical reception so there has been even within the social democratic party there has been criticism towards the leadership how this has been handled he should have been removed from political office completely and the opposition of course especially this subtle left opposition is very critical of the way the compromise has been reached the only ones who seem quite happy with the fact that he isn't losing his

job completely is the far right a state they consider him a pole but they so happy he is in office millionaire thank you so much much million a kosik from politics. some football now and the return of the champions league saw two of germany's most high profile coaches face off as you're going club's liber full welcome to tell us to hose probably some cement side liverpool took the lead early on through daniel sturridge before james milner and doubled their advantage from the penalty spot thomas who pulled one back for paris just before half time early and look to it snatched a late equaliser but ruled out for me no secured three points for liverpool with an injury time winter three two the final score there. but that wasn't the only game on tuesday with plenty of high scoring matches across europe a messy hat trick saul barcelona beat p.s.v.
