but this is something that can happen because there might be no choices. the audio still have to move and gaza in any case, you can't prove if you don't have settlement, especially when it is still not clear who exactly would govern a postwar, gaza. for what israel's plan is for lasting piece is israel's war and gaza grinds on. opinion poll, show palestinian support for him. us is growing in the occupied westbank. the same polls indicate that the palestinian authority which governs the territory is losing support. we take a look now at what that could mean for the future of the palestinian territories. a pro, how most rally in the occupied westbank for years. few people in the palestinian territory supported the group which is recognized as a terrorist organization or the you and the u. s. 3 months of war have changed that in september,

delores served as finance minister in the 1980s before moving to the you. he was a passionate advocate of european integration, and his son are branded as a key figure in the creation of the single european currency. the euro are now to mexico city, where us and mexican officials have been meeting for high level talks on migration . this, as washington tries to reduce the number of irregular migrants crossing the southern border, us secretary of state entity blinking met with mexico's president andre manuel lopez over a door with an eye to limiting the number of migrants reaching us. lopez over our doors has said he is willing to help at once washington to improve relations with other countries in the region, as well as increase aid in return. the issue is becoming a big political problem for us present your bite and the see approaches. next year's election, as many as 10000 people a day are being detained,

trying to cross the southern us border migrant stranded in northern mexico. hoping to get to the us border by train for them. a wagon is a better option than attempting to reach the board of by boss. they say, mexican immigration officials keep pushing them back to southern mexico to know why or will they get us off the buses. or if we are about to reach the boulder where we are returned without any apparent reason, they demand that we get migration documents, that they are not valid because they have them in our faces. how are we supposed to move forward? that to so this is all really hard. i've been doing this for 3 months. i felt last night trying to get on a train to go on with my and my children's journey. they've had fever and flu due to the cold weather. we no longer have water and we don't have any idea when we will leave this month,

that us briefly shop some international railroads between its southern states of texas and to mexico because of rising number of migrants crossing. as many as 10000 migrants today were arrested at the us, the south west in boulder. in december this 6000 strong group are walking along a highway, watched by the mexican national guard. many migrants and the families come from central and southern america. they have fleeing poverty and violence, and the hate from the mexican authorities will allow them to continue that track north end of day. we ask them to that is the cost freely to go to the united states . we go there to work and our children to study. so we won't the, because we are looking to improve ourselves, to have a better quote to you if life. because in our country,

the situation is getting worse and worse. and we are looking for an opportunity. oscar mom's long and dangerous route. the us for defense is in sight. but with pressure building in the us to block migrants from entering the country. reaching the border, may not bring these migrants the best to life. they had hoped for both going sure. but one of the most influential figures in german politics has died at the age of 81 as finance minister and uncle michael's government. he was known for his hard line austerity measures during the year a debt crisis. the veteran, conservative lawmaker was confined to a wheelchair, after surviving a gun, an attack in 1990, a voice gun shy. but it was the conservative politician of the old god internationally known as germany's to finance minister and to financial watched talk during the euro. crisis being his last political office as president of the german. but in this talk he was

a voice of moderation as his right not debate has rules. so just as me defend it is connected to the willingness to demo, to respect the democratic procedures and would not denounce majority decisions that have been made and then as a legitimate or treacherous team, or the 5 days of age or the sun street. so they don't see of his tenure as finance minister was crucial for germany. he managed to restructure the german budget despite the your crisis and accumulated no new debt. jim and i'll solution data and try this potty colleagues petri smith's praise choice to enter some more than 50 years in german politics. ones that i'm familiar with him go on now. country has lost an exceptional politician. scotsman, a statesman who is deeply implants, germany and europe, the fall of a 5 decade secret, quick sharp. this rise began in the 19 eighties and

a hand with quotes government. as minister of the interior. he played a significant role in drafting the german treaty of reunification in 1990. shortly after that 5 that was attacked to contain wiley and severely injured. he survived but was left paralyzed. but this didn't hold him back. after only 3 months, he returned to work. who is very impressed with as a chief means live and even more so after he was seriously injured in the attic. why not people 10? so he was pretty authentic, sadly, had his weaknesses and flaws for me. so i don't think that's a bad assessment for a politician. he certainly had a very sharp tongue and hurt many people's feelings, but he was also very hard himself. that shouldn't be forgotten. well, it's gone short of this political fate. what's the next trick? kimberly linked with him with cold. he was extremely loyal to his mentor. yet he eventually broke with him over the conservative parties funding scandal that finish

10 quotes career shortly then allowed himself with i'm get, i'm a i cool. then you force into cd. you 1st became her into we administer, then finance minister in 2009 voice gun shy, but it had the lasting influence on german and international politics. despite the blow, as to his personal and political life always remains fully committed to his duties . d w as chief political correspondent, nina has offered this assessment of both kind of choices, legacy or yeah, i think it's safe to say that this truly is the end of an era in german politics and reactions have come pouring in from a lot of the major german voices who took about surplus, lasting impacts on job and, and international politics. and one of them is the former chancellor and glum mackerel, who these days keeps around. the low profile fatigues come out and sees praise falls, gun shy black hole, quote,

his ability to recognize and hate big political developments. now he was of course, michael's interior and then have finance minister for many, many years. and in fact, most times i've is leaving a very big legacy here in germany because he wasn't inferential positions during very crucial periods and all those decades. so, so i blur held all the important jobs you're going to have within 7 politics with the exception of town sla, until been president internationally. people will associated these days with a name boss. so sorry for that is that he was probably the embodiment of a german finance minister. he held a post of ages. so during the difficult is of the year zone cries as he stood for a very strict public finance policies and balanced spending. not too much debt to ideally, no new debt. the euro zone cries in those is from 2010 on with saw him labeled as mr. austerity, and he became a hate sega, in the highly indebted countries in the south of europe. for the 2nd thing he will be most remembers for broad is his role in german reunification after the collapse

of the soviet union and his position as interior minutes of the time was going. so either was the main figure for western germany to negotiate the reunification treaty. if you are watching dw news course and get all the latest news information, anytime you want on our website that dw dot com and on our youtube channel as well . i'm terry morris and thanks for watching the devastating causes soft worldwide deforestation in the rain forest continue. carbon dioxide emissions have
