the, the, this is the, the, the new is my, from the german politically to seek away for the after has started victory by the fall, right. the alternative for germany tops the fault and the eastern states of india for the other passage, refused to join him in coalition. also on the program. israel was more dead hostages hush. goldberg, poland. one of the best known in the cafeteria held by her mouse, is buried in jerusalem, his body and those are 5 others were found in a tunnel in gauze, up over the weekend. the

. i'm so glad you're welcome to the program. political 8 as in germany, i'll weighing the options that the fall rise alternative for germany potty took 1st place in a state election on sunday. they asked the one the vote in the eastern states of to india, despite being classified as extreme missed by terminal forces. acting one almost a 3rd of 2 inches of votes and came in a close 2nd in the neighboring states of saxony. but its chances of governing all uncertain as all other parties have refused to work in coalition with it. german chancellor actual to social democrats fan pull in both folds this whole process to form coalitions without bite, wing extremist. right, if the may have emerged as the biggest when that into region of electrons but will likely end up in opposition. all main screen policies have pledge to uphold a firewall against entering

a coalition with the n d migration potty and both the range and sex any a low. a key majority didn't cost their vote for the a if the and don't want to see if given some state it has a mandate to form the coalition for whiskey and sucking methods. you just have to come together in the interest of democracy now. yeah, they will cry too, you know why that i'm tired of a lot and the share of votes is simply to be model. don't feel so open, but at some point do you have to ensure that people see the choices you're being reflected while in for vill clifton? think up on saturday, i think they should be given a chance to work together with everyone. when only then can you say whether they're up to it or not, but denying them that chance by claiming to be too good. you actually end up elevating them and you shouldn't do that too much. but there is concern about the rise of the file, right? why does t as the fact that the f d has done so well, especially in rural areas,

is concerning focus of agent. yeah. as long as this, i think it's basically right not to work with them. but it's hard to see a government being formed at all, then you can come to like this terrible absolutely terrible message with us. so i don't know what will become of germany and why it would be a if the say they have a right to govern in state level coalitions. the policies running the national government on the pressure, they badly manage to scrape 10 percent of the vote combined with just the you to go before federal elections. these results are likely to increase the tensions filled by what of schultz has already divided coalition. let's pick up some of those points for that political correspondence. i'm in your welcome simon. so, visa state elections despite that gemini, is national governing coalition that's clearly been paying close attention as

well for sure will fail. and the, as he said in that report to him, you know, this will definitely increase pressure on the chancellor sholtes and he's 3.2 coalition in the lane. he's on the social democrats. what, what town to summit said, but they did very poorly. the greens have made it into one of these 2 state parliaments and the free democrats. well, they didn't figure it until then or going to be represented in the parliament. so pretty bad results. so the governing policies and one of the reasons that those policies gave themselves for the, for that is the lack of unity. and a lot of the political analysts as a well, you know, how could that be improved in time for next year's national election? there are key fundamental differences between the parties that are a problem. what was i one other thing? feel the so the social democrats themselves, i think it this result will cause them to look again at all our shows. is he the

right candidate to lead them into a national election? a lot of the experts are saying he's personal and popularity has been a real drag on supporting these 2 regional elections. ok, so they started when for the german file right pocket. clearly this is being seen as a potentially indicative of the way national elections. my go as well . uh if they may well do the a f d the alternative for gemini, for them. it's clearly another milestone to take care of the 30 percent of the values into, into regional states. and, you know, they take great haul from age at the national picture of course will be different. there are different issues that state as far as the posters, se, uh, support for the a f d nationally is around 16 percent. incidentally, that's more or less the same is where i felt is social democrats. so as well i want

to create. i think the refusal of the, of the policies to work with the a f d, even at regional level in coalitions will mean that they will stay as a policy of protests. they would be tested when they go, as it were, the rains, the hands on the reins of power, voters wouldn't be able to see what they would really do if they had to make responsible decisions. i'm not critical is help them because they could continue to roy, the wave of dissatisfaction with the national government and sort of feed off disgruntlement and get support that way. so with the, i have to be taking up to a fund of votes in both of those states kind of come the other part is actually a for to refuse to work with them as well. i think the question really fell. is it, can they afford not to because it's a to, you know, to agree to work with the a f d would involved going back on the clear promise that they've made to have a clear line between themselves and, and the fall, right?

so what's gonna happen now, they'll have to look around some of the coalitions that can somehow be made to work . and one possibility that that may bring. yeah. forward is the idea of the question. democrats center, right? policy of, if it goes like coming right out in our helmet, coal aren't going to miracle. working together with the new the other populist rising phenomena and janet politics. the b s. w. lead by zone and logan connect to the next communist as somebody with very different views from the question, democrats who oppose these military support the ukraine, and that would be a tricky coalition, but tricky coalitions. i really want to, jim and politics is all about nowadays in this splintered political landscape. thanks, simon. that the deputy political correspondence, simon young. like a quick look now at some old story is making the headlines. brushing missile strikes of wounded thousands of people in the train in the city of hockey. shopping

is likely to bring any change of strategy from this government to well, 1st of all, the legal court, israel, it has said that the, these trying to political, the cool to end destruct immediately tended us the 4 hours ago. so there's no trying any more the trying that these the, which is the workers union party, the national weather union parties, and israel uh said, excuse me, is a not to am a valid anymore. they should go back to their job steps. first of all, 2nd, the processes they use continuing because this is the only way right now they understood that the strike and the workers can help in with the putting more pressure on the government. we understand also, for instance, the statement is the prime minister. you know, sit in the cabinet meeting today, after criticizing the strike after criticizing based the boot,

he said that we will not lead to the 42 days and nothing 43 years. so it means that no change in policy and science. okay. us president joe biden was asked to today whether benjamin netanyahu was doing enough to achieve a hostage deal. he's answered with a simple no, they sounds like a rebuke. today's ready, prime minister or it definitely is the some of the hostages for me uh, has it said that the we were speaking more prove that nothing always the obstacle for reaching the deals. we are getting get it from the prison. and by and after the criticism from the bottom of the statement from about is the official themes and they show up maybe called name for benjamin the whole as great as the statement saying that instead of putting more pressure on the espn one or the leader, they're putting more pressure on the prime minister involved as being pregnant, the next step to be american proposal on the 31st of may,

all of them are to fix proposal on the, on the 16th of over the although the proposal they're still putting more pressure on israel to may do more good session to home on the party that is actually not giving the session. there's still evidence about the position that they need these ready to leave the doctor entirely from the 1st stage of the deal into the car door . and of course the man and government sees fire. so this whole situation right now is a big giving us better and maybe we will see more answers from bethany on. so that will speak in a press conference in an hour from now. okay, thanks for that. so i thought i got doing this probably explaining, telling me you know, way, how's the, how's the death of a wide beluga way of which can you meeting to the to while watching us because the mama was suspected of spying for russia. years ago he was found reading
