. but i'm at the songs you say that thousands of protesters are out me near the activity on the police firing tear gas but for the time being the situation is relatively calm compared to the past few weeks there are few standoff between the police and the protesters and the police officer is our applying a different strategy in that they have little squads that are actually trying to arrest those the instigators here instead of staying away from the protesters as they would normally do but as i said the situation is relatively calm at the moment so the police does appear to have a strategy but what can be said about the government does the government have a strategy to end these protests. well that's a very good question as far as we are informed president ever remark or we'll talk at one point next week early next week we obviously don't know what he will say but we expect that new measures will be announced try to calm down the protesters the

happening there asking the government to take away more from the rich and not from the poor the protesters have accused the government and the business of the president as a president who is out of touch then have funded grounds for the decision. well it was in the past said things that didn't go down that was for example he met an unemployed person in the street and you say you know you just have to cross the street and you find a job of easy that just sounds like someone who's always you know had the privilege privilege of having a good education you know getting access to good jobs many people here feel that they don't have these privileges but actually france is quite an elitist country you must remember that so for many people he did get access to very good schools sometimes it's rather difficult to find good jobs that are well paid. you have a corresponding views on who are supporting for us in august and you very much.

you know who is the man who came up with the idea of actually using the yellow vests which helped launch the french protest movement did a news reporter i mean spoke to kuta and also and how he came up with the idea. it was really simple i was making my video and i saw the vest and i use all the time for work. i thought to myself it's highly visible we all have one in our cars because it's required by law. so why not use it as a sort of color code. just to see if people want to go out in protest. and then go. over to. why he's along and i see protests macross comes with the tax. related tax. it's not enough we should have woken up years ago we took too long to wake up and
1:06 pm
now we have to make up for the years we missed there in really way too many abuses for years and he isn't listening to us he had a program that was actually not too bad but he didn't do anything he promised. goes we'll. what are your politics. on the evidence you. me i'm not political at all. i'd like to have the right to vote on the important laws think it passed. because we don't get to give our consent. if some of them. own what we don't have a right to decide on these things. are you against micron's attempt to improve the environment. or well no actually we would all love to drive with clean energy but the government's plan doesn't stand up that's not how we're going to achieve

to achieve this sunday's all stop a myth that biden there were fears the contest which featured candidates with markedly different profiles could split the party but the defeated contenders urged unity. well you see i learned how to i would like to ask everyone now to give our new leader on a great calm column by our their wholehearted support if you are in an election featuring such distinct candidates was a courageous and thoroughly democratic experiment for the c.p.u. it was a moment to celebrate even for those who didn't vote for comic-con. the nation torches was no i'm not disappointed it was very close so i voted for a spot in the first round because as a young person he made the best impression on me that people get knocked up so i did it was clear early on that it would be a close vote i would have liked the result to have been different. if you like and that's what we've been talking we knew the whole day it was going to be

she had a plan for the party and at the same time we so i think it's come out on both tried very hard to distance herself on key points she talks a lot about migration. in 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 angle america as chancellor will have to listen to very closely in the near future in her vole is german chancellor but of course we know that is to see to eye to eye get on very well so i'm going to map a 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 as you might have become the studio chief but then. nursed by will by only thirty five votes does that mean the c.d.u. is a divided party. post certainly this election contest which was
