this is d. w. news live from berlin the u.s. government shutdown is over at least for the time being. in the short while i will sign a bill to open our government for three weeks until february fifteenth. i will make sure that all employees receive their back very very quickly or as soon as process. will happen for us but president trump still wants his border wall and is threatening another shutdown if he doesn't get what he calls

a fat deal. also coming up at least nine people have died and hundreds are missing after a dam collapsed in southwest brazil and rescue workers are warning the death toll could rise sharply up for a torrent of money devastated roads phone lines and homes. and that some nordic head to head at the handful of world cup norway wins that semifinal against germany and now take some posts denmark. i'm on you tube as mackinnon thanks so much for joining me the longest government shutdown in the history of the united states is at least for now thirty five days into the standoff with lawmakers president donald trump has a short term funding bill to temporarily reopen the government but his funding

request for a five point seven billion dollars border wall with mexico that's the issue that starts at the deadlock is not part of the deal. i this was the announcement federal employees across the country have been waiting for and not just them thank you very much my fellow americans i am very proud to announce today that we have reached a deal to end the shutdown and reopen the federal government trump agreed to temporarily reopen the government until mid february even without having received the funding for his key request a wall on the border to mexico. his retreat came after intensifying delays at some of the nation's biggest airports and another missed pay day for hundreds of thousands of federal workers the american people do not like it when you throw

a wrench into the into the lives of government workers over an unrelated political dispute working people throughout america empathize with the federal workers and were aghast at what the president was doing to them since the beginning of the shutdown the president's approval rating has hit an all time low he was increasingly accused of being out of touch with the ordinary people. but despite all criticism trump has not given up on the border wall just yet republican and democrat lawmakers will now negotiate in order to find a mutually agreeable solution for border security and trump already made clear should he not be satisfied with the outcome the shutdown could continue. a cult and that from the german council on foreign relations joined me in the studio earlier and i put it to have this is a clear defeat for president trump. absolutely the democrats can

claim for victory here there are no negotiations about the war before the end this shutdown so i think it is a very big success for the democrats and especially for nancy pelosi now this is a temporary measure this is funding for only three weeks but what happens then i mean there's been a huge cost to the country during this the shutdown what happens after these three weeks where the negotiations will be even tougher because the atmosphere will change even more. even though people will get paid now or will. be compensated for the time. of the shutdown and a lot of people who are dependent on this money which are not directly working for the government so all the services the people who provide. goods and

services to the government we're not to be paid so you have hardening off the atmosphere and the issues if the democrats are willing to include the budget for the wall will still be on the negotiation table so i expect another crisis on the horizontal because trump has to deliver to his electorate and he will not back down even though his situation has now fundamentally changed he even looks wimpy to some office. supporters and this is something which you know insight and debate and most possibly another crisis so as you say an even further hardening of of the atmosphere and of course his standing he does not like to lose what is this going to do how will this affect affect trump's support specifically amongst his base where you still have to deliver and the base still expects. to come up with an

idea or up with a plan to build the wall and it's interesting because yesterday when he announced the temporary. end of the shutdown he didn't talk about the fact that she wanted mexico to pay for the war which is very interesting because this is something he promised to the people who voted for him and you know seeing him doing this might change some of the elements of what he promised his electorate to do and they have very closely observing what the president can and cannot so it is a very tricky situation and the government shutdown is extremely unpopular and that was nicole runabout from the german council on foreign relations who joined me in the studio earlier. now the u.n. security council has called an emergency session today to discuss the crisis in venezuela the country's self declared interim president has said he won't give up
