so unreasonable or stop, what is this nonsense? i want my son to become a doctor. to inbox, now it's time to to and then when generations to nash dw documentary, the a lame duck chancellor, it doesn't get to call the shots anymore. that's a realization, rapidly donning under miss old off shots after the collapse of his government. he had held for opposition support to implement at least part of his agenda before a confidence votes to determine his political face. but that's so favor his rivals across the aisle are not willing to do they want elections and they want them. now i'm looking for the humor land. and this is the day the

i already decided that they should be new elections as soon as possible. so the chancellor was unable to give me a plausible explanation as to why he would only call the fault of confidence in 2 months time. for tones fargo, provided we should discuss the date as calmly as possible design. it's his responsibility to ensure that we can get a new government quickly. i think we will quickly find a good solution for everyone, game and also on the day. so i plan on taking all sky as the leader of the opposition and bella roost tells me how the incoming trump administration can help her costs. so uh, what we need uh from dish the support to those in democratic forces is the pressure one more question because the resume because if the data and the, you know, one of the task of them critical just to fight with the data.

welcome to the show. pressure is mounting on germany's chancellor or lost shots to hold snap elections. his coalition government collapse this week after he fired a talk minister now around his broken now between show so social democrats, one to oppose. next march, and the opposition cd. you will help to profit from a much earlier ballot. school starts as in budapest today, meeting with other usually this back home, the discussion about new elections is intensifying. so it's his plan was full vote in march holding the collapse of his government coalition earlier this week. but that's too late, according to 65 percent of the tenants in berlin, a position. the then sense that helpful fluidly schmidt has also been pushing for early elections as an early a vote of confidence by the chancellor. that will trigger them. so it's still in. budapest has now stated he's open to discuss the election date in parliament next week. would be good if we could now reach an agreement and the bonus tag among the

democratic parliamentary groups on which laws can still be passed. this year. disagreements should then also be able to answer the question of the right time to call a vote of confidence in the stock. also, with regard to the possible new election date in hendrick, often represent annoyed by 10 mean. so it just has to be is pulling a 3rd place far off behind the conservative cd. you'll see us you on behind the far right. if the it's possible, the chancellor had hoped to wait until march 2 in big favor with lotus. but that would have meant nearly 5 month as a minority government that would not be able to post any legislation without deposition support, including now this crisis has been a long time calling has difference is over economic policy between the chancellor and who's now former finance minister grew until they became an sustainable and that is something i want to talk about to call them as an author of both guy moonshower, he's co founder and director of your intelligence, which provides news analysis from the you and your zone as new book is called

comport the end of the german miracle, it looks and journeys economic model. and what he says is germany's decline. the book came out this week just one day after the german coalition fell apart. welcome to the day mister mensch out for some congratulations on the truly impeccable timing of the release of your book. were you surprised at all to see the governing coalition fall apart? i was actually surprised, stuckey surprised that it would fall apart on the date of bending book was published. that was standing not intended, but it certainly i have expected it to last because i do not think that the st pods are doing themselves any phases uh, from a you know, technical, political, the one of you, the best move best buy out against both against linds month against charles and but especially for lyndon i think i think there is no, not much of an upside for him. i just thought to you, in your opinion,

what were the key factors that got the country here? and this is gonna be a long time. i think people with a really good economy is by looking at you the piece that goes and you know, just g p a sort of held up because right? good in, especially in the beer from 2005, 2015. and more recently, you know, it's, it's been sort of stuck maintaining a bit, and it's only sort of in the last 2 years, the people, people still notice that something wasn't, wasn't going right. that was the russian gas situation that was been done make these supply chain problems. and you know, i was looking deeper into this and you've also been covering the story for very long time and dark, seen gemini, becoming progressively more tied to the 20th century technologies, taking not very great interest in this whole industries. we've seen the car industry. how's it going from, you know, global leadership to, you know, being a technological lego to in the new field of electric vehicles. receive a general watch the channels, you know, hospitality to was digital. and as i know,

i see this in schools at universities, but, but especially income and in the united kingdom or in the us. you know, the life is modest advantages and germany and invest has become a problem. now that it's becoming a commercial, a commercial issue. we're looking at, you know, as in my book, i was looking at the gem financial system is still very much space on spot customer, mr. stumped on, you know, funding funding, medium sized companies, mostly in old technology. the sectors that is in the capital markets, funding phone you sectors, and i think what, what's happening, especially now with all the geo political shifts the, the election of trump. but it goes further, you know, they, we, we have the ukraine's after ukraine bowl. we have a great geo political realignment. the german model was very much depending on that, not happening because depending on expos, on industrial exports, in particular,

it was actually depending on the sub list is not just on export, but i generating stop. this is, which is a very dangerous strategy, because if you're making a so dependent on, on subclasses you, uh, you reduce the degrees of freedom in your to your part of the collection. so, so a lot of things that are going to jump in there, but, so what you're saying is that germany means in general shift in its economic model . how could that be received? it can be achieved by, by mostly because, you know, i'm not saying that piece of terms of and sort of what it's for does is doing. but it's, it's an open up to you and just say that you have not defined itself as an industrial economy. and i think that has been a mistake by the success of government as much as one political party to define germany as, as industry, jeremy is a great country for large companies. it's not a great company for smoke. it's next to great. some people, companies that have no legal departments that don't focus on regulation, but it's a great company for, for a large company, certainly has

a lot of loss companies. the system needs to open up to diversification that other industries can do under printers. and to make life easier for them and also to allow some of the photos for those sectors. a lot of money into, i mean, look at the, the government's policy and industrial subsidies. a lot of the money runs into a few industries, especially sending conductors and the whole idea behind to send me content semiconductor subsidies was to secure the supply chain of the cons. so this is all about a lot of the money. a lot of the structures of designs to facilitate life for the last, you know, in this case, the last car companies such as the the, the general environment for, for you, for, for smaller companies. it is not nearly as great as it, as it is for the last. so can you start to say, so that's, that's what i want. to what extent would you say the current crisis is related to what you're just pointing out to the con prizes this ultimately um is based on an

economy that's not what uh, the, the, if the economy has rebounded, is a last year as people have expected this year, you know, the that would have been more money available for the government to bridge its difficulties. but in economy that doesn't grow, cannot, cannot afford this. and that's what they have to make sacrifices. they just not comfortable for me to fulfill the extremes. pictures of the debt break, the, the high social funding that this government has accepted, plus the increase in defense spending, the shows the progress in is through, you know, speech on the poker, change the sites and brenda that he, that he espouses strong so strongly. so there is a, a, a, a conflict conflict of interest that has now uh, that is actually not come to the surface. so this particular price is just very much related to this. yeah, as a germany is this week, especially if not the only country facing change, donald trump was moving back into the white house in january. how do you think his

economic policies will impact or me, especially at those curren impasse? yeah, just it's always hard to predict what things don't attempt to do, but he seems better bit about this stuff. and he so you know, he has an agenda. he not also has the majorities. this is also different from last time. he has a supreme court that is, that is republican, old or conservative. he has a majority in the sense the house is still not decided yet, but it looks like the, the, the house of representatives, but also have a republican leadership team. if that is the case, and you know, at the moment it's leaning that that direction would be, i'm not sure. but if that was the case, then he would have, he would govern with a complete majority. and one of the things they will do is impulse as he s e s e s b, as he threatens all indicated, hire people and prose terrace on a 20 percent terrace, which i mean at the time like this would be an absolute killer. so they would use german companies to shift more production to the united states business. the 20

percent gap is hot. it's hot to a bridge of germany. and so this will have, that will be more an investment spectrum companies in the united states to circumvent these terrorists. and it will become a excitement which is going to be much. how does the drum you will be forced to make those things that i, i suggest it's almost almost because it's, it's close on them by the outside. well, the system is not sustainable in, in it's not just donald trump. it's not like it will end depend on it from lease office and for years. yeah, this is a very persistent change. the republic and the, the, the trump isn't, isn't just a phenomena showtime. it's phenomenal. this is very much a, a sort of an app. this is the real ethical change that is happening. we'll have to leave it there that was walk on one child, your intelligence and other other reason we publish book couple many thanks. thank you. after the election in the

united states, russia as president vladimir putin says, he is ready to discuss ukraine with donald trump, kremlin spokesman and demetrius pest. golf said, that's doesn't mean for knows, willing to change his demand. so he also refused to confirm whether a north korean troops are currently fighting against ukraine of the summit. and buddha passed from sanchez, some porter in the you. hum, gary and president victor all on for dated. the trump administration would stop providing support of keys and science against russia i owe like that is one of the reasons the us election results for fall so closely across eastern europe, solano, to handle sky as the leader of the opposition and believers where she worked in 2020 ran against authoritarian leader like santa lucas angle. she now lives in self imposed exile in lithuania and joins us today here in the studio. i'm thinking okay, i thank you so much for coming into the studio. and joining us here on dw, and the current us president was very clear and his support for the bill of raising

people's fight for democracy and human rights. what do you expect from a 2nd, donald trump term? no, i remember having to is a 20 he uh on the he's in ms. freshman. the 1st, not just being forced against to cushion because the resume off to the power has been seized by him and the look now the un grizzly to trump don't have trump with the, his presidency because of he had to respect choice of the american people. you know, it's such a luxury, you know, no to know who you will be. go next president, because in builders is like a to rile. uh no, no, no, no elections. so, and of course v as in creek philosophy, uh, they'll have to work with the new administration. we have showed me the coloration, 0 his election campaign, but now we have to see with extra spill be. but they want to believe that the american people who influence actually in the full so for the presidents because they are following the country, they will stand strong before

a full democracy. they will stand with those who fight for them for the change of changes. and they will conduct principles and values based policy, but not the business or interest base policy. i want to quote your message of congratulation to donald trump. you said you want to continue and enhance or cooperation with the us to bring freedom to bella. ruth, what do you hope that cooperation will look like? you know, for this, for years suspense, it's meant to be, have been enjoying bipartisan support in uh, from the usa. so uh, what we need uh from dish the support to those and democratic forces is the pressure one more question because the resume because if the data and the, you know, one of the task of them critical just to fight with the data. so functions for human rights abuses for tortures and billers, and the assessments for people and also brennan, of the, for 3 of us to accountability. so these are directions we are working on. and of

course, the you know, treats and below were, since we've had to flee the bill, was because of repression. single, honestly, providing them via the refugee. when assessed right now, a little concerned go has responded to the results in the united states with flattery. he called donald trump a powerhouse and a bulldozer and even so as i said, he would recommend him for a nobel peace prize if he brought the war in ukraine to and, and how concerned are you about this kind of praise, maybe winning donald trump over you know, getting him on his side. i looked at a sure that's the crown clearly seems self knows about the situation in the billers at the moment is a crazy little quick him. maybe he doesn't remember who is the question good tool. so uh, of course, you know, cuz i'm going to show that the cut off, you know, he'll be on the side or foot dictate this. hopefully, she will not be a but, you know, in advance you decide that, you know, to, you know, send such

a pleasant message. but it's still a want to say that i really believe in the american people who are not the, there's, this is democracy. it's not the one person, some dictates are, you know, who is conducting from forces, people and people support and bureaus people, there's a supports in ukraine and the, hopefully the most allow still assistance to the premiums. let's look at the situation in ukraine because donald trump is run on a platform saying that he would end the war and ukraine in a matter of 24 hours after he returned to office. it's wildly believe that that would be a piece on russia's terms, at least partially. what would that mean for the region? it's the importance uh for all done for the quote, including you, they are say to provide everything possible for you. praying is for them to be in the war for them to be leading to some of this fight. and of course, it's not just

a career somewhere just fighting for the territory. it's not like a local war, it's fight against dictatorship. and if no critic world in a democratic lead, us will show the weakness, or they will show that they who can make deals with the terrorists, you know, with the tyrants. so what will be the response of the society with them for the society? so not only bill recently created on the threats or for the date, the ship or the return these and it's the whole world. so now uh, the existence of respects democracy and the critical test to show that we have teeth because instruments you know, to punish you and to show that the strong. so now we have weights in from, from powerful lead us into your say in germany, to show that the dictates us we will get pieced. the code dictates us, we will be on the 4th. if that doesn't happen, if case in ukraine, happens on russia's terms, do you think that will lead to,

to vladimir putin being emboldened and maybe trying to grab more land sees control and other parts of the region? absolutely. i think that's, you know, tearing the ease like cancer until you caught the last sale of it. it will be a pro then, you know, it, board us, and the, i'm always just tell him to all we were in france, e smoke still tyranny. now, they will not to your doors will take, going to do them. is it if we're looking at this, this more than maybe widening or, or you know, lot of input and aspirations growing. do you think that's a realistic prospect given how the war has been conducted until now? you know, tens of thousands soldiers of di, there is growing discontent within russia as well. about this conflict. i do think there is a way that maybe also civil society and russia would then say, okay,

this is enough or, or is the propaganda machine such that, that a lot of important can have this way either way, because it's up to russians, people to decide what they want in russia, but the now it's very important to help those who have consensus in regard to milk for. so we'll talk, pressing the course in billing rules, those in society. we want to retain build rules into europe. you wouldn't want the critic future for blood was the same about to create new. so help those who know what they want. and believe me changes in billing rules can spark changes in russia . so don't i'm to estimate the meaning or for free democratic and independent builders. in this fight against google to run it. i think you mentioned a free democratic fellow rose. there are elections scheduled in belarus for next january. how big are your hopes for for a possibility of change even ever so slightly. ok, wouldn't to use the would election regarding bill rose is the invitation is foss is

i didn't know retail all circus, but north elections it goes in the country with now will the toner to meet the ruins where civil society is the has to fleece know the country with people i have to fight on the ground with the course of the levels. refreshments with all the political openings for in prisons or in exile is like a political doors. and now it looks like a location because preparing for meals restoration for like the right events most for so cool directions. so this is resolved and will change anything for blower, since it will not make what question can legitimation again, if you will send the page of our history. and of course, i know encourage older than credit constitutional notes, recognize the selections, and i will read the fuel this consensus about the specials. nobody's going to say ok, you know what questions the point is himself. so he'll return to business as usual

. no, it will not happen. you say it's going to be a sterile event. do it just paint a picture for us. what does this election or pseudo election going to look like? oh, you know, people who will be forced to come to fullest ations, you know, to like make the choice what, what is going to college of people, accounts, voices. they will just draw the number one cushion come nice. it's a true and this is, you know, and i don't think the people this time you'll go to the streets, you know, to protect a, you know, independence because they level or for freshness and builders. it's awful. you can see realists on the streets. now you can see, you know, a vocal blo since because every day in villarreal 1520 people are being detained every day without weekends and i received called before so called directions. this region intensified refreshments because they are afraid of people. they still
