even over walsall may ruffle chelsea. deeply divided poland is widely seen as a battle for the country's future including its strained relations with the e.u. . on sunday well before all the votes were tallied with just a razor thin lead president due to seemed confident he'd win now after a campaign fueled by anti european anti german sentiment he's striking a more conciliatory tone there's any color coded present by if anyone was offended by anything i did or said in the last 5 years not just during the campaign please accept my apology as if it's the only i want to assure you that i have respect for you just like i have respect for all my compatriots irrespective of their views of . this from a man who is a law and with the governing right wing populist law and justice party they've made no secret of their dislike for foreigners sexual minorities and the free press.
6:11 pm
just 3 points short challenger rough ski from the centrist civic platform party is showing is seen as proof of a growing opposition in this deeply divided country he ran on a platform of pro european liberal and tolerant values. for the other fellow. you know that's a nominee yes it's only the beginning i'm convinced we will change poland that now that we have woken up not you no one will put us to sleep my balls and what's most important to me will continue fighting in south irrespective of the result. do those reelection give the law and justice party a shot at governing for another 5 years during this time they aim to push through controversial justice reforms putting them on a collision course with the e.u. . get some analysis now with a from the polish service that is so we're getting these sort of results it's
6:12 pm
pretty clear president going to stick around what does that mean. well it means that the national conservative government in poland will be able to continue its controversial. reforms and aiming at stretching its power in the country for example it is expected that the government will continue its reform of the of the judiciary it is expected that the government will try to decrease the power of the local governments it's expected that the government may try to take control over the. independent media and the president in poland is able to stop all of this because the president has the power to veto a loss i'll call it however it's very unlikely that there's to do that will do it because he's a very close ally of the ruling party correct so his reforms you talked about reforms to destry system extend the federal government's policies all things that
6:13 pm
the european union has been very vocal against what's this likely to do with the relations between poland and the e.u. well they are already troubled and i don't see any chance for improvement i don't believe that the party the ruling party in poland will now step back from those controversial reform from the reform of the judiciary which is jeopardizing the rule of no in poland so. on the other hand of course the government bullen doesn't want to destroy its relations with the european union roland needs the e.u. and the e.u. need to poland however just relations will be very tense ok so what does this mean . now for the opposition which we know is predominantly pero. well the situation of the of the pro european opposition in poland is very dire out say the government has now the parliament it has the president the government the ruling party and they have a lot of time the next important election in poland is the parliamentary election
6:14 pm
in 3 years. it may be hard for the opposition you know to keep their supporters and their members mobilized for such a long time sister. so are a majority of poles and i mean can we interpret that from the president and he did as well no actually no polls are very pro european polling is one of the most pro european countries. in europe in the european union however poland is very deeply divided and as we have seen in this is this election. it's almost 5050 half of the of the society says we agree what the president does we like it that way the other 50 percent says no but it doesn't mean that the you did the country wants to get out from the rippin union ok so. from a polish test thank you for that thank you. prime minister just have

a conte and germany's chancellor angela merkel have met for talks on a proposed coronavirus recovery fund for your country's country has been gente european leaders to support the multi-billion dollar economic stimulus plan he has medicals backing but some e.u. countries oppose the fund which would see the european union issued joint debt for the 1st time several e.u. countries including if the off facing severe economic recession due to the coronavirus endemic. and formal we can use chief political correspondent melinda crave who is at schloss news a bit outside the den where the meeting between going to medical and just if it contained is taking place hello melinda good to see you so so mcaleer conti have been speaking to the press what have we heard. well there was a great deal of personal warmth on both sides the chancellor paid tribute to the

6:17 pm
stake if if member states don't take strong and coordinated action does machall share that view. she does in fact share that view when he repeated that message here by the way just now saying that if money doesn't get disbursed quickly to the countries that are hardest hit we will see further divergence within the eurozone further fragmentation of the eurozone pressure on those countries and on the euro itself and possibly the destruction of the euro zone that was the word he used to destruction and the chancellor certainly seems to be on his way flix she has said in the past that the very stake of the their very survival of the e.u. isn't stake and she too repeated that this is a crucial moment. all right that state employees chief political correspondent linda crane reporting from schloss news of a thank you melinda and also some other stories making news around the
