this is d.w. news live from berlin tonight who will lead israel the election delivered another still meet and now political leaders are battling for the top job benjamin netanyahu is calling for a coalition government with himself as prime minister centrist but he got also wants that coalition but with himself at the helm will go to drusilla for the latest also coming up tonight those photos from the past

a racism scandal surrounding canadian prime minister justin trudeau escalates as more black face pictures emerged trudeau says he is deeply sorry and a murder that has shocked germany the victim was a former chechen leader living here in berlin he was gunned down in a park that is now under police guard and there's one big unanswered question was russia behind the killing. i'm off it's good to have you with us in israel the voters have spoken and that is now part of the problem tuesday's election produced no clear winner israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu and his main political rival binny guns are now both vying to be the country's next leader conses centrist blue and white alliance says

it will never sit in a government led by netanyahu and his right wing likud party. a handshake and a smile to seal benyamin netanyahu surprise off a power share with benny gantz man in the middle israeli president for even revel and threw his support behind the idea but it was rebuffed just hours later the party leaders were attending a state memorial for the late leftwing statesmanship on paris during a speech in s. and yahoo gave a nod to the coalition forged by paris with conservatives in the eighty's. when there was no clear victory in the knesset parliamentary elections shimon opted for national unity and agreed to cooperate in order to navigate israel to a safe shore. in this election there was no clear winner and i call on you

as a president that has worked together again to bring the state of israel to say. look . it's a later press conference dan said he does want a unity government between led by him. contra prochoice forming a unity government with all these different parties and political spin do you have to come at it with honesty dignity and sincerity israel centrists are in total opposition to the government led by netanyahu and have accused him of trying to drag the country into a 3rd election in the move to create a broad coalition. or for the latest now we want to go to our correspondent on your kramer she's on the story in jerusalem tonight good evening to you. we're at this point that follows every general election in israel where the president plays a crucial role talk to us about what has to happen now. yeah that's right intention

is now to shifting to president richland who today has appealed again to all the parties but mainly to benjamin netanyahu and the guns to do that best to get out now what is happening on sunday the president will start consultations with all the party leaders that will come one after the next and they will then make their commendations as to who they want to see to form the next coalition government now this process might usually take $2.00 to $3.00 days but because it sets. complicated situation it might take a bit longer than next wednesday the official election results are expected to be published and then president clinton could then announce who he will toss with forming this coalition there's a lot of pressure. on him with this because everybody also wants to blow it of

course has to go in for another election sometime soon yeah and understandably so we know that netanyahu has suggested that he could do a so-called premiership swap after 2 years is that now out of the question. mr netanyahu was referring to a unity government in the 98. where there was a rotation of premiership but many guns in his short answer today in his statement he didn't really address netanyahu directly but what he's saying is that if there is such a unity government then it would be under his leadership so that would put basically an end to the idea to have a rotational. and that goes along with what you might have said all along during the election campaign that they would not sit with the prime minister who might be

indicted for several corruption charges and the korean dykeman hearings for mr netanyahu are in about 2 weeks and the talk is that the 2 leaders who are standing in the way i mean for likud and blue and white to form a coalition government together what has to happen. well you know pete number 2 of the blue and white has said very plenty actually you spoke off to any guns today and he said there's only one problem we don't have a problem with that he could but we do have a problem with netanyahu that wouldn't be netanyahu could be a unity government and that's what they have basically said on the lawn and there's another problem as well since yesterday prime minister netanyahu at 4 am a block you had consultations with his traditional coalition partners the smaller right wing national religious and also talks parties and they have pledged that

they will be staying loyal to him and that's their luck and would only enter negotiations in such condition talks to gether this is a bit of a problem for people in white who have said today again that they would look for a broad and liberal government so they all kind of problems and all kind of complication still and it's you know it's still a bit unclear how this will move for but definitely not a simple solution that is for sure tanya great reporting tonight from jerusalem tania thank you so here are some of the other stories now that are making headlines around the world to new users ousted president. ben ali has died in exile in saudi arabia that's according to his lawyer he ruled the country for more than 20 years from 1987 until he was forced out of power during the arab spring in 2011 he was 83 years old at least 30 people have been killed after a u.s.

drone strike in the east of afghanistan the target was an islamic state hideout but the missile struck civilians in a nearby field meanwhile intel upon car bomb flattened a hospital in the south of the country killing at least 20 people injuring scores more it's the 3rd consecutive big of violence ahead of presidential elections in the country. the racism scandal surrounding the canadian prime minister justin trudeau is getting worse images have now emerged of trudeau wearing black face he'd already apologized after time magazine published a picture of him wearing brown makeup at a party back in 2001 the affair is a bombshell in the middle of an already tense canadian campaign yearbooks have a hobbit of haunting politicians this 2001 photo of justin trudeau and bryan face is no different clearly rattled the canadian prime minister pains to

apologize in 2001. i was a teacher of in vancouver i attended an individuality for the theme was arabian nights. dressed up in a latin costume and put makeup on it was something that i didn't think was racist at the time but now i recognize it was something racist to do and i am deeply saddened when you take your this scandal feel to the fire of condit as election campaign. wearing brown faces an act of open market 3 and race is just as racist in 2001 as it is in 2019 but what comedian sought to see is someone with a complete lack of judgment and integrity and someone who's not fit to govern this . trudeau launched his reelection bid last week just as reports a match that police are investigating claims he had corruption charges dropped

against an engineering company but for someone who has made political he of his support from multiculturalism this could be more damaging. what's troubling i mean it's really it's insulting. any time we hear examples of brown face or black facing it's really it's it's making a mockery of someone for what they live and what the relived experiences are. i think his answer for it and he's got to answer the question why he did that perhaps more than the charge of racism and which will lead to questions of authenticity and whether justin trudeau is indeed the poster boy of liberalism that he claims to be . here in europe the austrian parliament has voted to reject a trade deal agreed to by the european union with 4 south american countries and they could veto the agreement between the e.u. and block of countries now this deal took 20 years to negotiate it could now all

collapse austria is the latest country to cost out on a deal that's been 20 years in the making for the past several months the plan to agreement between the european union and for south american nations has shown signs of on ruffling trading relationship worth $88000000000.00 euros a year is at stake the e.u. exports $45000000000.00 euros of goods to brazil argentina parekh y. and euro quite each year the markets are a block sends almost as much back the deal would remove to she's on over 90 percent of goods the e.u. exports to america soar that includes cars textiles and chemicals markets are countries for their parts would benefit from reduced tariffs on opera cultural products including poultry and beef. images like these of the

amazon burning have prompted countries including france luxembourg and arland to threaten not to approve the agreement brazil and response accusing the bloc of using environmental concerns as a mosque for discontent among the e.u. farmers. but wave off 3 are now adding its voice to dissent the way forward for this long fought for deal is paved with obstacles over more now i'm joined by claimants kober he's a lobbyist in brussels working for the german chambers of industry and commerce claims it's good to have you on the show you know we're used to talking about brags and as a symbol of a lack of unity in the european union this deal now which is poised to publish probably collapse is that also in your opinion a sign of the e.u. struggling to find unity good evening from brussels so the deal as you have said has been negotiated for over 20 years we've had more than $38.00 rounds of

negotiations and now we have a breakthrough. deal that is good balanced and it's a deal with more than 700000000 people so it's really in terms of size one of the biggest us of it done and if you look at these numbers which is a big achievement by the way for the outgoing commission it's no wonder that there is an intense and that has to be well informed debate about that all i can tell you from the business perspective we have more than $12000.00 companies especially small and medium sized companies that are exporting to markets or and for them looking at the trade tensions that are already hitting their exports this is really a good opportunity to move forward and. the deal will still take a while to be ratified and. it's a normal process so what about if he does. what about what about of austria

successful torpedoes this deal i mean for germany exporting nation then that would be a disaster wouldn't it. as you said exactly walking away from this deal this would be would put a big question mark that read ability of the whole trade policy for the e.u. . being able to open markets for for a business that they are dependent on. so now it would be the right thing for all the member states and the commission to continue to push forward with this deal which. has the potential to break down barriers open markets and also set standards european standards especially in the field of sustainable trade if we walk away it will be others stepping in taking our advantage of way and we will have other standards prevail right claimants who were with the german chambers of industry and

commerce joining us tonight from brussels let me thank you thank you. or relations between britain and russia have been frostings since the attempted murder of a former russian spy and his daughter last year in england these cripple k.'s lead london to accuse moscow of exporting state sponsored terrorism on to british soil but some say the kremlin's criminal reach does not stop in the u.k. the recent fatal shooting here in berlin of a forward chechen military leader allegedly by a russian citizen has thrown up new questions was he murdered in germany on orders from the russian state for something that he did 20 years ago when russia was the enemy. why was it him how much she limited it's a question his ex-wife manana tivo can stop thinking about she says and was she to sought asylum in germany in 2016 because she was being pursued by the russian

secret service. who is not going with us tomorrow but he picked a priest and we were warned that something could happen at some point but i never thought such a brutal attack could take place so easily here in germany where the security services the police and the law are among the strongest in the won't question said the missing. 20 third's hunger was causing the spark unveiling to be easy to mosque a man in the bicycle approaching from behind and fired several shots at the edge of the gunman flat but was soon caught the dangerous of the 2 men quickly raise suspicion. the victims in hunger shield was spirit and he's home country georgia he belong to the minority chechen community there until 2005 he has been a commander in the 2nd chechen war against russia that put him in moscow slips of want to terrorists. an attempt had been made on his life 4 years ago.

but which i think he was killed because of his role in the chechen war most of. all his problems started when he came back from the war which. gave me. the name of the alleged gunman is off according to his passport hereafter in germany shortly before the attack possibly using a fake identity the investigative group belin could believes says the nation may have been ordered by the russian secret service. or gave. us the clues are in the passport used by the subject and in his visa application. passed so hard to read the name given on the passport doesn't exist in any russian database and also gotten one to fitness. big moscow order the killing.

says the end of august to the suspected assassin has been held in this building prison and is maintaining his silence his russian passport was issued under the name but in circles a false identity according to media reports so the suspicion to confound russian secret services will become the focus of the british. appeal of the in state prosecutors who want to comment on speaker lation about russian involvement. with the into going to the motive behind the attack is difficult to pinpoint we haven't found any evidence of a classic motive from the world of organized crime we haven't found any personal motive between the parties and presume it is more to move. the cases being followed across europe so gilligan's key is a german member of the european parliament who says spell in slow call authorities are overwhelmed and wants federal prosecutors to take over the investigation. i

think it would be wrong here to hesitate because it is about our resilience as a country and it is about our security situation and threat it's better to act fast in a situation like this. but the official reaction so far has been to slow film and not succeed. even though she knows the situation sensitive. case has the potential to shake up german russian relations. is that going to happen to talk about that i'm joined here at the big table now by our security analyst christiane good to see you christiane so we don't know that much really about what investigators have found so far and i guess we are going to look to our crystal ball here i mean how likely do you think it is that a foreign secret service was behind this murder and i mean do you think it was the

russians right now john investigators are trying to find out who this guy really is the alleged killer is in custody and he's shows absolutely no will to cooperate there were some newspaper reports saying that the u.s. secret service gave some material to the drum some evidence that shows that the alleged killer is in some form connected to was some certain russian state agencies true or false we don't know john investigators staying absolutely quiet and do we know what you know what interest would be crim when have in seeing this chechen leader or former judge leader dead well congressman he was a farm a wall lot he was the leader of a brigade in brutal guerrilla warfare against russian troops after the wall if left to georgia than made it to ukraine eventually he ended up here in berlin where he asked for asylum. off the record investigators say this guy had

many enemies not just in russia and not just in the russian army and if you analyze that whole case politically there are some doubts that russia really could be behind the killings because russian president vladimir putin is pursuing the sort of really encreased strategy right now he wants to break up the deadlock the diplomatic deadlock his country is in he wants to get rid of the sanctions understate all that killing and that in that face could derail the whole strategy and that's a good point but we know that putin is a man if you carries a grudge and he doesn't forget do you see any similarities with this case and with these therapies group or case in the united kingdom last year well in the past russian hit teams have killed some form a wall it would take more if you were abroad and these cases are now being really

analyzed the scriptural case to me looks a bit different because mr scrip i was officially labels to be a traitor by the russians and in this criminal case we know that the 2 agents would try to poison this description that were members of the russian secret military service this is not the case perhaps not yet the case here in berlin now if evidence does come to light pointing to russian involvement in this murder. what is that going to mean for german russian relations it would be a serious blow was serious damage to german russian relations and that's why in my view why russian government officials extremely cautiously reacting on that whole affair if there's any proof that russia that the russian state has all of that killing germany had to react perhaps by even imposing new sanctions against moscow but if you do that you have to be 100 percent right sure otherwise if you. falsely

accuse a state of committing crimes of fuel soil it would end up in a diplomatic disaster and we know i mean you've covered politics here a long time you know that the german government is very careful anytime when it's talking about actions that may or may not have been taken by the russian state or security expert because the intrepid as always christiane thank you. are never going to change pace and talk about something that is cute cuddly and so non threatening what better ambassador to show the softer side of a world superpower right china has for decades loaned out giant pandas at a price to win hearts and minds around the world but that diplomacy well his turned to tragedy in thailand after spending the last 16 years at the shining mice zoom trench weighing died there suddenly on monday he collapsed shortly after doing what he liked to do best snacking on bamboo leaves french wines passing his spark public
