the 35 years of to the full of the fun in the mood, november 9th. can you tell me the welcome to focus on you? it is good to have you with us. eastern spain was hit by historic floods, devastating several localities, and shattering thousands of livelihoods. flash floods, caused by record breaking rain falls, swept away almost everything. in the past. in the outskirts of valencia, people were trapped in vague colson homes, with no time to react. many have died in the floods. residents feel abandoned and are desperate the weather phenomenon responsible

for the extreme floods is comparable to a hurricane, or at times to the effects our hiring reminder that european countries like spain on prepared for these consequences. many residents of the oscars of valencia or in the epa center of the flood damage like atlanta, talavera ortega, she is frustrated over the crisis management at nose. the community needs to come together to help each other. almost everything has to be thrown out. trustee furniture that's long been pulse of christy and his family's life must be broken. the family was at home when the flowers came. for 15 minutes the water rose continually. the parents and children took refuge on the 1st floor, their lines thoughts throwing out the possession still really hucks. just wondering is how are you? i'm sorry,

my friend has helped us to take the things out because we just couldn't do it. what about the no, but it is not because we didn't have the strain august the but because these are all memories 1st you can't just throw them away, you understand them. so they did it for us, but i so, but all this because you know, nobody else in the neighborhood alpha has been badly hint elias again the next day when the water had gone down, i went to look for my car. i find it in an open field in this and on the way back i saw a pile of cars and they'll be no more than the other coaches. there was a man underneath. have you looked like he was asleep? i mean, but he was dead or his method. okay. just tell us how you feel, tom, what many people on, elena and christy on the streets of have similar experiences, the throwing themselves into the work suppressing the grief and questions. for example, while i view for a cheese, didn't want them in time about the devastating search. even though the voice of further up the river was already very high. spain's politicians arguing about it

now. you've got to lock people to see a good. the weather situation was predicted pretty well, but it's intensive. do you have never been experienced before? and i put 3 to 500 leaders within a few hours to sort stream. and then it's almost impossible to give adequate warning by the population wasn't prepared for the fact whether the extremes are becoming more frequent in times of climate change. say the expense valencia suburbs with it's extremely hot. and what looks like the sense of the dissolves, the film is reality. here. countless calls stranded in the streets. spain is in the states of emergency volunteers arriving and messes to help out in the worst suburbs of valencia. equipped with cleaning materials and volta ivanhoe, a german spanish student shocked by the destruction here along with all the students. he's also around in the neighborhood what they can do to help somewhere else. cuz like we were told that the people in the neighborhood need,

walter mentioned, especially the older people who can't get talked to the house at the moment though, the thing and that's why we're going right and asking for money to watch or have i said, well, we've got food with us to buy, so trying to help where we can one, when one comes and lots of people need that help owners too many deals, storage, ease of trying to coordinate to the assistance. there's a distribution center with water and food for those who are mobile, but they're all still missing people for them, like i say, it's very sad working like this is under the circumstances that are not being able to help out or not being able to reach people anymore, but we'll manage even if it takes longer for the others. this is now the volunteers meeting point buses for the age mission leave from the renowned, futuristic science park underwrite. in another wild nothing seems to be in its place. any more rec, so piled up in tunnels fall, your flight is a salvaging them. i'm searching for missing people. how many or missing a?

still a move in the same mission. colleagues, pump water out of an underground call park. it was flooded within minutes. 200 parking spaces by 7. got it. that are certainly cars day and they are but they are not that important. human lives are the priority or animals that might still be there. that's why it's still looks like this and many cartridges. the search will survive us as a race against time. meanwhile, a space government approved at 10600000000 is you relief package for the flood victims to the floods in spain underscore the dramatic reality of human costs, climate change and issued to the top of the list of the upcoming climate summit in other by john as several countries in europe have introduced a tax on carbon dioxide emissions. denmark has now gone beyond that as implemented

the fee for burbank house, emitting climate damaging meaning. denmark is the 1st year pink country to introduce this kind of tax, which already has had an impact and the region of christians. the niners, please. the danish government has recently taken steps against working capital business because their belt has contained anything which is harmful to the claimant . that's why danish farmers are now being taxed for their burke and coves. dw spoke to castle reader, christie hancock, in the small village of christie on the steps. he has 1000 heck, tears of land and ruins. 1000 coats. christiane tells us why. coast belgian, the 1st place that not of buying a cool with the problem with cows is that the ruminants. so the feed passes through several stomachs, is i'm making boy says full time. and then the process. methane is produced,

which isabel is found on the hooks to the house the because the theme is even more harmful to the claimant and c o 2. denmark is taking action. charging 40 euro's and tax per ton of anything. roughly what 10 k was admitted in a year. the government farming lobby and denmark largest nature conservation association agreed on this figure. a denmark, the minister of agriculture is the lights and by the joint decision, the signal that is clear that the farm us of the have to develop the farms in the even more greenway. we have to take out parts of the farming lens as well as putting up more forests for instance, and that we are in a hurry. but the, i believe that the signal that we've sent with this equipment will also help doing all these things even faster than what we have agreed in the, in the agreement itself. it shouldn't affect the task. i think that the whole thing has actually gone very well. the fact that they came to an agreement as positive,

oppose this is elsewhere in europe, there is far less goodwill in germany and friends. farmers have steve massive protests and major cities over the small list of for farms thinking of and then my guess on based on, on, on i think there's a slightly different mentality in denmark of the we don't want to harass ordinary citizens and drive around protesting and attractor making a model, it broke up, investing in psycho home from giving help arable land and re for us thing, which is a big deal for danish farmers. but it's needed to improve the quality of denmark, lakes, and fjords as they're heavily polluted from excess fertilizer. less agriculture near the water means less water pollution. it's christy hancock also news that he can lower his tax burden. if he uses feet that causes the coast to burn less even though denmark's nature conservation association

doesn't one farmer switching fee to it. it says the agreement is too soft on this point and that's look kind of on the agreement, especially that the part is not as strong as we would have hoped. we are worried that some farm us might even not have to pay anything in tax. so we would like to seem that strong, even so in true danish fashion, all groups agree to the kind of deal, despite their different interests. then we have a long tradition talking to each other. we're small country and we have what's called the things module, where we sit together the government, the organizations, in this case, the farm us together with the green organization and find the right balance funds to ride compromise. christiane, from the gulf green piece, wasn't part of the talks and is deeply disappointed. this deal,

we'll just keep the non part of couse and picks and so on, on a quite steady level. so this is not really offering a solution to a much smaller plan for the stack because you and therefore we will not see that as soon as we get back on foot with this deal. this is the, the news live from blaine, germany's governing coalition, collapses. johnson, the olaf shoulds fires, finance minister and coalition popped up. christie and lena charles, once a confidence vote in parliament, engendering also coming up. we will engage in a peaceful transfer of power. the concession speech of us vice president, coming to how does includes a d at president electric drums and congratulations for winning bucks. the white house, the

to i'm finished vanity work. i'm the governing coalition in germany has collapsed. and johnson the own. i felt as cold for the confidence vote in mid january sholtes of the source of democratic party made the announcement. after dismissing his finance minister christiane lin uh, who leads to business friendly, freed democrats. they foamed both of the countries to follow the coalition government with the greens, the confidence vault will likely trigger new parliamentary elections by the end of march. we expect to hear a live in the coming minutes from the head of the main, the opposition party, the christian democrats, or the c, d. u. but 1st, here's how schultz explained the decision to sac his finance minister. we have it in buddhist, i asked permission from the federal president to dismiss the finance minister. i was forced into this decision in order to prevent damage to our country. so then we need a government capable of taking action that has the power to make the right decisions for our country. and that's what i needed in the last 3 years. and that's what i

need now. i made another extensive offer to the free democrats earlier today so that we can close the holes in the budget. and to avoid scrubbing our country into chaos, did you look at one of those house actually some going on? it was a long distance call assistance. shots of decision follows months of inviting in the german government over the budget and during a major slow down of germany's economy finance. but it's the leading, blamed john specials for the break up the fortunately, we made suggestions for an economic time around 12 to put the country back on the path to success. folks cause so being any got people cut the less bureaucracy. that's taxation of democracy, pragmatic energy and climate policies control the more control of immigration. so we like style can at the same time strengthening the individual responsibility performance and encourage innovation, right? these are for the suggestions we're not even accepted as a basis for discussions by the social democrats or i'm greens are it's up to you.

it's to last outside. robots, how back from the green party that's heard. bob 9 jones is going listen. have these to say this nice don't, didn't house it was impossible to close the holes in the butcher's bottom. but there were many different options on the table and they're just cutting down and off to dish. and the biggest would have included ways to provide you creating with more support to gain custody of this to get on task would have been the best response at the beginning of the day, which donald trump was selected to call it. and i will, germany has a role to play in europe and the fighting ukraine is a fight for peace and freedom only. we won peace and freedom in europe, and germany has a role to play on the bucket ball from the goddess funding to join us. deli junior up germany is governing coalition has collapse now, but all of charles has got the confidence vote only in january. why then as well, he says that it's because he wants to continue to bring forward and basically come

to prove some measures that his governments had already planned to get approved in the parliament. so he says, these are important measures that have to get approved. he wants to implement them, so he wants to get that done by the end of this year. and then once christmas and the new year has started, then call this vote of confidence. and this is the procedure. as it happens in germany, it is different from some other parliamentary democracies where sometimes the president or even the prime minister of the chancellor can call for snap elections like this themselves. in the case of germany and the chancellor has to call for a vote of confidence and when of his confidence is denied to him and his governments only then can the chancellor discuss with the president of germany to dissolve the parliament and go to new elections and this seems to be the plan of

current german chancellor shows in speaking of plans. i mean it is plans to have a gentleman election next year in september, but he's an early election now inevitable. it's not a level, but it looks like it's going to be the likely possibility. now there is still the option of a, for example, going ahead with a minority governments. so the 2 other coalition partners within the current government, the chancellor's social democrats and the greens could continue to govern without the 3rd coalition partner, the f, d p, the liberals. but this would mean a difficulty in trying to get laws passed. for example, in the parliament they would have to look for a different majority every time they wants to pass the law. and it doesn't seem like a chancellor shots and his partner, the greens, want to go ahead with this possibility. now according to the german basic law, the constitution, there is also another option and that would be for the parliament to

approve a new chancellor. and basically go ahead with a constructive vote of confidence. that means that the parliament would have to elect with an absolute majority, a new chancellor. and in that case, that would mean that the current government would have to step down and new governments would come along with the same parliament. but again, this also doesn't seem like a possibility that for example, the opposition wants to go ahead with, and it seems like everyone really wants to go to new elections. there are huge political differences between these 2 policies, and this goal isn't from the get go. so why did it split now? so yeah, it's the beginning of, uh, there is a period of in government to the 3 parties manage the bridge. the difference is that they have and basically come together with a government program, a government contract to that push to law on what they actually do have in common. so on trying to transform germany to prepare germany for the future,

looking at digitalization and innovation, and for the 1st few months of their government to business what was driving their action forward. but things didn't get more difficult after putting the invasion of ukraine, the war there and the following energy crisis, which also brought inflation and difficult economic situation in germany. and then gradually, what to these 3 parties have in common became increasingly less relevant. and the attrition and the fractures became more important and especially one of the big issues of contention is how to deal with it. you cannot make an fiscal policy how to finance the budget of the country and whether germany should be able to take on more that to finance for example, the improvement of its military and many other big issues. for example, the industrial transformations to

a greener economy through that or whether they should try to do that the least amount of as possible. and so this is sort of like the issue that really seem to break the coalition officials once debility in government. so that decisions can be taken for the country, but he's bought and the 2 other bodies with whom he was governing impala. all 3 of them together, approving very unpopular in germany actually have come back to you june on it has gone through here. what's the head of the main opposition party in germany, or is saying we're talking about friedrich mats, who is the head of the c d u. but remember, this was a party of pharma john's law. and grandma commissioned this and into what he has to say. this is simon on 10. there is a gentleman, the witness counselor at the gen chancellor. yes, today, and it is coalition damage substantiating with this, with the argument that she had no trust any more in the coalition law.

in the wake of this, it is also clear that there is no majority in pine demands that the thing has confidence in this german chancellor. there. for this reason i buy the continuing guide you. but the government would demonstrate the lack of respect to the substance of this country because life shows is trying to overcome this lack of confidence sites up by the me at the continuing the editor in position. and if he were to do that, this would be a demonstration of arrogance and disrespect to the electorate. and of course vic, frugal. germany needs 42, a shift of course, and it needs a change of policy. we cannot afford a transfer who's paralyzed gotten a residual coalition with its minority cannot aim to continue to govern.

and this is why it's can only be pulled up. all right, sounds good. that's all laugh far in. so it's one of the cock, stay put the vote of confidence to the parliament, the bundle tack right away. then he needs to give the responsibility back to the voters that he needs to be prepared to make it clear that the need to be refreshed . selections of a truck. uh we find it absolutely untenable that laugh shows is trying to on to name and not take on the responsibility for the state that he has and to pursue, of course, of political bankruptcy and delaying. and this is why we would call on him next week to put the vote of confidence to parliament. young ladies and

gentlemen. since yesterday evening, the coalition has failed. it did not sail on the ftp alone. it also failed pauses based on the lack of basis and for an alliance to govern. you can date the failure of this coalition back to a specific date. you can sponsor, namely the 27th in february of 2020 to one of the day on which or life show it's up to you not made a government statement talking about a turning point in history, a site from vendor. the results of the policy of germany and the government were not a turning point in history, though. the events that happened then where the german government and particularly the chancellor with its social democratic party. the complimentary group tried this bytes, the beginning of war and ukraine to continue without any

response to the changing world policy when so to continue on with the policy that they had agreed in the coalition agreement. but at the very latest, the inception of war and ukraine calls into question is coalition agreement. and yet none of the parts to this coalition had the courage to questionnaires to say this and to implement the results of kind of your mind. and this is where it's got those, there's no common ground anymore. and there's coalition forces and the f, d p who made some proposals to reanimate a national economy, came with these proposals very late. they should have not just been proposed, but implemented many months ago. but this coalition does a lot of the strengths and do it and stuff. the end of the coalition yesterday

evening is the end of this electrical term. and in the parliamentary group, we have just talked about the next days and weeks kind of, there's absolutely no reason not to ask for a vote of confidence. now, why do it in january? the coalition lacks the majority in parliament to for them, which means we have to ask the chancellor and we will do so in our problem into a group rate is to put about confidence to parliament next week at the latest thought . the federal president will then give still how parliament 24 hours to dissolve. and in this 24 hours, we will have plenty of time to look at whether or not their issues that we might want to conclude together in the last 20 of the term in office of the windows tack . naturally, we are prepared to enter into dialogue, and of course,

we will take on responsibility for our country. should there be a need to make this decision? if this is necessary, we would certainly be willing to, we will deliberate and we will make it possible to carry this out. or what's important is that very quickly, the responsibility for the composition of parliament be given to the electorate in the us. the 2nd week of january we could hold new elections this time for that and we'll meet you on the next nominations for the coming parliament can be undertaken. we can come up with a list. there's absolutely no reason to wait until spring of next year. and i'd like to draw your attention to the fact that the, that internationally, there are many conferences commitments, decisions that need to be made in the european union that require a strong german government capable of action. we simply cannot afford to

have a parliament without a majority for months on end. and then to follow that with an election period and then perhaps have weeks of coalition negotiations. things have to go quickly. so i will ask the chancellor this afternoon to pave the way for fresh elections and will present my arguments with the federal president as well. many thanks. i or so that was germany's main officers and coalition. they're making a clear demand that they want a vote of no confidence to be held. now remember, johnson, the older shoals has proposed a vote of no confidence in gender. they lifted more from the new political correspondent g, or less so deadly. do you know your initial reactions on what you've heard so far as well? this is something that we'd already heard coming out of the conservative opposition

that they want. the chancellor all of shows to ask for a vote of no confidence. a confidence right now as early as next week, and to go to elections as quickly as possible. now we've heard from manse of ahead of the cd you party that he believes that it makes no sense for the government to stay in charge until the end of the year. because it doesn't have a majority in parliament, so it would not be able to pass the laws that they want to get past until the end of the year. and i've shown so said he would, he wanted to reach out the sleeping meds to make sure that they could come up with an agreement together to pass these laws that shots believes are important to get past quite soon. met. seems to this agree there. so we're going to have to see whether it's going to be possible at all to find a dialogue there. but we also need to consider that a now that a new elections are starting to appear on the rise and that the different parties

are already starting to think in terms of their political campaign. and it is in the interest of, of the conservative opposition. the cd you to get to elections as quickly as possible. the party is currently pulling 1st quite ahead of all other parties there around 34 percent of pulling now. and that would mean that they wouldn't be able to then leave negotiations with other parties to form a coalition governments. and if we can ask, does not want to lose the opportunity of being ahead in the polls of having a lot of voters behind him. and he doesn't want to risk up disadvantage might wither away over the next few months were shows on his party, but also the greens and in general the other parties in parliament pick up on their competing and maybe a sort of catch up with the cd. you, where does this leave a johnston, olaf schultz, then as well, he is currently in a difficult position, but it's gotten to

a point where he has taken a charge in a way, in this situation. and now that he has a fired his a finance minister and that's the ftp the business friendly party is leaving the coalition. it does also give the chance of the possibility to speak more freely. now these parties have been in contrast for many months, even though they have to work together as a coalition governments. and now that the f d p is not in the picture anymore, shows can really speak more freely about what he thinks did not work in that coalition. we already heard that yesterday when the chancellor gave a speech about the end of this coalition government where he very clearly spoke against clarity on it now, who is the head of the ftp, the liberal party. he clearly said that he had this a point that shows that shows was the pointed in what a, how little conducted himself and his party within the coalition. and this gives him

also a chance to, to show that he is now ready to, to move on. and that basically it wasn't his fault, mainly that this collision that didn't work and he can put the blame on the ftp more clearly. so it does give the chancellor a bit more of a room to play and actually be able to also answer the electoral campaign. really leave it there for the moment, but thanks so much for joining us during this identity. the w political correspondent, let's let's uh, head now to another person that we can talk to we talking about the gun on the instability in the german parliament. let's bring in the thomas silly bohannon. he's a member of the drummond building to start for the conservative se is you uh, thanks for making the time for us, mr. silva on. so uh, the opposition go less than that essentially once a vote of no confidence immediately. why can you not wait until january and get

some work done for the country in the meantime? our conviction is that our country now needs clarity. there is no reason to accept and entered in period of uncertainty over several mountains. so our clear expectation to attend such choices, to call for a vote of non confidence this week, or at least next week, and to after 2 elections positively already at the end of january. and if he doesn't agreed to your demands, what does that mean? you would not cooperate with them at all fall. this is our 1st condition in order to come to a specific issues. and we are not against the minority governments in general, but there is no reason to tolerate a minority governments this the chancellor charles, he.
