12:09 pm
a much tougher tone than we've ever heard i'm going to machall and she also used the issue of the latest confrontation between russia and ukraine to make clear that she would be in favor of a much tougher stance and this is a voice that anglo-american as chancellor will have to listen to very closely in the near future in her bowl is german chancellor but of course we know that is to see to eye to eye they get on very well so i'm going to matter has nothing to fear as chancellor from her own party and that certainly would have been a very different scenario if one of the other two one or she might have become the should you achieve. nearest rival by only thirty five votes does that mean the c.d.u. is a divided party. was certainly at this election contest which was seen as very fair indeed in all three candidates so that has unearthed what could
12:10 pm
become a potential list within the conservative c.d.u. we saw and it can't happen choose her secretary general today the leader of the use of the c.d.u. poets and yet he was proposed by her he was the only candidate and he only received sixty two point eight percent so not even around about seventy percent that shows that she still has a lot of people to win over for her team and we also heard she's from the stage behind me already today asking fifty schnapps to stay on board and particularly help out in those key regional elections coming up next year in those eastern states where there is a tough battle with the far right f.t. so yes a.k.k. has a as she's also called has a very tall order in uniting this party behind her struggling to hold on now and give america of all just four of the party conference yesterday let's just listen in to an excerpt of that address. because there's democrat this one you and george
