streets once again this time in cologne. nearby a very different crowd hundreds of out of one supporters mainly from germany's turkish community where elton forces the early hours keen to catch a glimpse of the man himself the turkish president was in cologne to open the city's central mosque but he used his speech just throw a parting jab at germany accusing it of discrimination and its treatment of two turkish german football stars of the. racism has to end let me give you one example measured who was born and raised in germany an equal were excluded from the society simply because they took a picture with me in england. president out of one's visit began as a carefully choreographed effet to improve relations after a series of diplomatic spat between germany and turkey. but it was going to take

more than a three day visit to heal divisions with tension is coming to a head at friday night's state banquet at the presidential palace germany's president raise concerns about political prisoners jailed after turkey's failed twenty six. added one angrily fired back going off script to accuse germany of harboring members of the movement he says was behind the attempted coup. the guerrilla movement is a terrorist organization unfortunately hundreds even thousands of its followers are walking free in germany. and we're not going to talk about them. i didn't want to bring this up tonight but when the president mentioned these issues by how to. all in all this is not a visit germany will forget in a hurry back home though at one selling this trip as an overwhelming success an

opportunity to boost economic ties and right himself is the man for whom gemini quite literally rolled out the red carpet in spring and. she joins me in the studio great to have the visit is a president at a one k. germany with the hopes of turning a new leaf in relations between the two countries did he achieve that well as our reporter there in the piece rightly said you can't repair a damaged relationship with a state visit only that's for sure but of course mr adelman as we know him will try to sell this as a great success to his supporters back home in turkey i mean he was received with full military honors he got the red carpet treatment so these were the pictures he wanted he wanted to present himself as a statesman well respected by political leaders by europe maybe he hopes these pictures will help him calm down the markets considering the economic currency

crisis in his country but considering also the fact that most of the turkish media are now in the government's hands or reporting close to the government what turkish people will probably not hear as much are the the many scandals that this visit has produced the angry offend that missed out on at the state dinner or take for example the joint presser with chancellor merkel she said a profound differences remain when it comes to the rule of law and press freedom in turkey in just a few minutes later as if to emphasize this president add on germany for the extradition of a turkish journalist who has been living here in germany. for the past two years so sometimes you get the impression they don't really speak the same language and that's my opinion this state visit has highlighted the stark divisions that we still see between turkey and germany of course it's important the dialogue.

continues but i'm not really sure what this visit has done for the german turk friendship well we know what what people were expecting from the visit expect critics of president at all what they were hoping that the german government would raise some contentious issues during his stay do you think they delivered effectively on that part well for the gem government it seems to be a balancing act you know they want to cooperate with turkey they need turkey as an important partner not only in nato when it comes to economic issues geopolitical issues the refugee deal that's an important issue but not at any cost i mean there are still five german citizens in turkish jails as the german government says for political reasons this is an important issue for chancellor merkel of course the general human rights situation all the other people who are arrested who are you know in detention basically for more than a year sometimes without any indictment being presented to them i'm talking about politicians opposition politicians activists human rights laws lawyers and so on so

these issues were brought up by german chancellor merkel by the german president steinmeyer by the local premier in north rhine-westphalia where mr atwan opened the mosque today. so a lot of chris criticism he's not used to that much criticism i'm sure but the question is will he really really listen so i think for the church's position now it's important that germany continues to bring these issues of you to one thank you for your reporting. iran musk of the founder of the electric car make a tesla is to step down as chairman of the company according to u.s. securities regulators a probe by the u.s. securities and exchange commission began after masked tweeted that he could take the company private for four hundred twenty dollars a share and that funding had already been secured charged him with securities fraud alleging that he misled investors tesla has agreed to pay a multi million dollar fine but musk will remain as c.e.o.
