9:06 am
announcements during his political campaign one of the things he says is that he wants to legalize carrying weapons for each. citizen and that is how he sees a way of fighting crime here in brazil another thing he said is that he wants to open more million. schools in brazil at least one in each brazilian state on the international level he said that brazil is going to withdraw from the united nations literally he said that he sees the united nations as a group often nonsense communists however two days later he said that this is not going to happen and this shows us probably the most important and the most worrying point. and that is his and predictability we already know this kind. of making policies from the president of the united states mr donald trump. curly and you know we saw that there was not only jory on the streets in our supporters but also a lot of pain
9:07 am
a lot of sorrow how divided is brazil right now. president is completely we also noticed that yesterday when we went to the point syria they don't they are well aware the supporters of the workers' party gathered they were of course and not only sad but also applied laurie because we have to complete the really have seen two completely different candidates here and this is how the country also looks like people who support a far right populist and the other one supports a leftist candidate this already shows two completely different faces of the country and also the political mood in this country. for us in rio de janeiro thank you very much. now to some other stories making headlines around the world the leicester city football club has confirmed the death of its owner the chinese streets have been a problem he and four others were killed after their helicopter spiraled out of

9:10 am
party leaders in berlin are now ready to change course. takes at the federal level contributed a lot to our losses in hester and there are two reasons for that firstly something has to change in the end. we have a lot of work ahead of us so i think the conditions of the government is unacceptable. even we have to ensure the government does what it was elected to do when and are fighting. whether we govern together or not the people expect us to do what's right and deliver results but support for the greens doubled from has this last election five years ago it's their best result in the state. and this result is evidence that people from mainstream society a longing for another kind of government with different ideas. but this is this while. the far right if he garnered nearly thirteen percent of the vote and is
9:11 am
entering houses parliament for the first time it will then be in all sixteen of germany's state parliaments following the election has the pressure is increasing on the government in berlin to turn its words into action. let's bring in our political correspondent thomas sparrow he is standing by at the social democrats s.p.d. headquarters here in berlin hi thomas good morning now we've seen this month two state elections there after bavaria yesterday was has a two terrible results for the social democrats what are going to be the consequences well one consequence that they have already announced is what they're describing as a new plan and although obviously some of the concrete details on the plan and still lacking they will probably be discussed right here at the headquarters of the social democrats today where we can clearly see a we can clearly say from what some of the politicians have been mentioning is that they want some concrete results at the federal level with the governing coalition on some of the social issues that the social democrats are really focusing on on
9:12 am
the other hand they want to change in tone there's something else that they've been describing you know the words trying to leave old out quarrelling aside all that infighting aside and really focus on the content and then there's another aspect to that and that's how the s.p.d. will restructure itself internally there is a lot of opposition internally about the social democrats role in the grand coalition and that's something else that they want to try and focus make sure their profile both internally and then also externally is better explained and it's clearer for everyone those are the priorities of the social democrats have said after that very bad result and has said after the very bad result in bavaria as well thomas one of those priorities mean for chancellor merkel and her shaky coalition government. well frankly merkel it's obvious obviously a very difficult moment as well someone yesterday on twitter described the conservatives proper probably the happiest losers of the night because obviously they they did get a result which gives them the mandate to form
9:13 am
a regional government on the other hand the losses are absolutely evident and the losses are very difficult also for angela merkel she will probably be able to continue with her government in a way with her governing coalition but she will also have to make changes and you also have to make changes considering what i mentioned just earlier sumi the fact that the social democrats here are under a lot of pressure that they also have to bring results and that also applies for angela merkel both the conservatives and the social democrats will have to bring results if they want to turn those bad numbers around tell us what does all of this tell us about how germany's political landscape is changing or it is changing a lot in that you can obviously see that when you look at the results it has that when you look at the results in bavaria even when you look at the results at the federal elections in september last year the fact that germany's political landscape landscape is being fragmented and more political parties are coming to the fore in entering general politics as well the fact that traditional parties like the conservatives and the social democrats are losing ground and those votes
9:14 am
are going to smaller parties part is that on some occasions are even on the fringes of the political spectrum like the far right alternative for germany or in other cases the greens for example the queen's i've also benefited from from all this and this is by the way to me something that is not only not only applies to germany to some of the world to seeing in europe this fragmentation of politics and the fact that those big traditional parties are losing ground and voters in many cases both regionally and nationally are preferring some smaller parties that in their opinion respond much better to their needs and to their desires as a population. tom aspera for us at the social democrats headquarters here in berlin thank you thomas. the u.s. where mourners held an emotional vigil sunday for the victims of the synagogue shooting in pittsburgh eleven people were killed when a gunman opened fire at the tree of life synagogue on saturday the suspect a forty six year old man is due in court later today. security remains

9:16 am
prevented the attack. pittsburgh mayor bill to do did not agree. i think the approach that we need to be looking at is how we take the guns which is the common denominator of every mass shooting in america. out of the hands of those that are looking to express hatred through murder was her a multi faith service brought together leaders of jewish christian and muslim congregations to send a message of mutual trust me love we needed to be here because it's times like these we need community. was. while many talk of a surge in hate crimes and divisive politics in the u.s. pittsburgh was a place of unity on sunday was. in

9:19 am
