and we are not available to join the so called grand coalition soon finished. sayfullo. if we are not afraid of new elections on fire and not nish. sold six to go into opposition after september's poll handed his party its worst election results since nineteen forty nine. but not all of spd wants to go into opposition such as president frank walter steinmeier who has urged schultz to reconsider talks. in a bid to avoid new elections steinmeyer has met with the leaders of the other potential coalition parties. the greens. and the pro business at d. p.. merkel however said she favors new elections over leading a minority government. according to a recent opinion poll by german broadcaster zdf fifty one percent of germans support new elections while forty three percent oppose it. for more on this story we can bring in found cocoon

milt miller head of political intelligence of the consulting firm open cities good evening thank you very much for being with us. did you expect his coalition talks to break down the so called jamaica coalition. not exactly to the extent that we have something in germany that people are talking about now laws while which is democratic responsibility. so parties are expected to do their job as you just saw the headline of the bedside on this wall. am which means they're expected to form a coalition so that they can govern the country and it's normal on german politics that you need former cornish and that's. difficult i'm saud these parties could have formed a coalition the ftp so the business friendly liberals as well as the greens are extremely far away from each other politically. but both i expected also want to check seat to power. ultimately that's not what happened angela merkel knew she was taking the challenge on our hands when she said let's get into bed with

these two other parties in sheer. she did but she then really didn't have a choice because the social democrat peter much insurance immediately after the election announced firmly that he would take his party into a position. and then there was no discussion so jamaica as we call it was the only option about stage and so she had no choice but to going to these negotiations now frank a water steinmeyer thinks he can. convince. martin scholes otherwise to to form this grand coalitio. would you think he'll buckle under the pressure. it's extremely difficult situation right now for the spd because he made that strategic mistake i would call it of. of immediately saying no matter what happens we go into the opposition he dodoes this because the party has lost over the past few elections every time it a little bit more of the electorate. and the idea was that the party could recover while being in a position differentiate itself from the cd exactly. exactly and now what happens is that it's it's up to them to the social democrats to decide whether we have a stable government over there we go

into near elections which we have never seen before in germany. so that's obviously a very big responsibility and they have to certain extend maneuvered themselves into a very difficult. almost lose lose situation angela merkel says she's open to the idea of. snap polls do you think she really means long. she has the radio was on and she knows that many of the for the thing with i'm right that's right and she has to be open to it because it's not. not up to her to decide where the spd ultimately agrees to another crown commission she and her party are. open to it and that she now hope for it. but that doesn't mean that it will happen so she has to be open to new elections but on all the main parties in germany white about the possibility of new elections because then the far right if the party could. actuall. come out stronger than they didn't in september's bowe that's right and they should be and the appropriate are because also the mainstream parties but the cd america's party and the social democrats. have lost lost

already a lot of seats in in the last elections in september. and this could just get worse if we call another election. and the after you could definitely win from this we have to watch the polls over the next few days and see how this plays out so what do you think angela merkel next move is likely to be. wait for march and chills to knock on her door a fifth and start the with adagio attorneys legs you think. you think that's going to happen finally i think ultimately he won't have a choice you will at least have to try and talk to the city year he. he did it because a politically can't just immediately even just refuse to talk to the city years i expect that he would go and. talk to the seed year then he could still decide to do what. lint off the ftp that and walk out of these talks. but i expect that the first step we now have in germany is talks between the senior and the spd because martin schulz is on the first time where he says he. doesn't want a former grand coalition needed after the elections in september heated again on monday way sat right. on and he

actually said he wants our. elections again but does he actually think he's going t. do better than you did previously as i said i think to a certain extent he knows he has maneuvered himself and his quarry into a corne. and what will happen now and we've already seen there is actually internal position within his party people are. saying. well we have to take our democratic responsibility as they call it in germany and we have to go and talk to the cd you. might initials might not be the one who leads these talks if you know if if there is a leadership question that now comes up over the next two weeks we'll see what happens in the coming days and weeks from. cook calmly at thank you very much joining us on the program. now it here in efron side lebanese theater group has won the culture award a four piece from the shock foundation. they've been helping refugees overcome trauma since two thousand six whether back home or in the camp the known as the jungle in the french port city of kelley. harbin melissa. block.
