tough talks begin in germany a. party which limp told to election victory with its worst results in history looks for coalition partners to govern with the so-called alliance appears the most likely so. the. protests against germany are about to start in berlin for the nationalist party and the party for the first time in its history and some federal.

human rights watch accuses the u.s. led coalition of killing scores all the civilians including children strikes near the syrian city of. your company this is r t international coming to you from school where it's just after seven in the evening monday september twenty fifth. just after six pm in germany where we start this hour and i'm going to digesting what's been a bittersweet federal election for her on the c.d.u. party which despite coming out on top soil plunge in voter support the right wing nationalist on the other hand has been celebrating an historic twenty four hours with more of the results in reaction to kevin on. the rest. b.r.t.

team in berlin. yes hello again to from the banks of the overspray here in central berlin virtue that will just never know in the cure of the our special coverage of the german election and what a twenty four zero six b. would be for some not so good news for others nikki sounds america's christian democratic party registered is worse results in the postwar period winning a projected total of two hundred forty six days that's almost seventy fewer than a previously held. but b. c. of the social democrats. meantime they're on course for a hundred and fifty three seats they were not growing coalition a lot more while ninety four are going to be taken the big headline by the

alternative for germany party that's the first time it's entered the national parliament if a lot of people are happy about that as well of course not just here in germany but the wider europe as well lot of people looking on so the big question is what happens next well and now angela merkel is tasked with teaming up with other parties to create a viable government in the bundestag and she's that sees not willing to form a coalition with the a d. and that's the controversial policy and then she said this will not have any impact she said the a.f.p. will not have any impact on shaping migration policy. i believe that the party should can go into coalition find solutions search for them there are some differences of opinion between the union and the greens the c.d.c. is you and the f.t.p. and in part also the s.p.d. and of course we will find that then and the coalition agreements depending on how the end that will be reflected in there but the. the will not have an impact on

that. merkel's major rival who she used to be the grand coalition with martin shields has said that forming a coalition with were not an option may change in the future though and that is s.t.p. party will go into opposition as it stands at the moment because this is all going to be thrashed out over a period of weeks yet. polluted we used to have politics without the brains without discussion from the outside it was going. on it's important to put in its rules are the role of the opposition in german parliament isn't important to understand if it's a responsible role because we shouldn't for the next. ok third party means that perhaps the most likely option is the so-called jamaica coalition this is an alliance with the pro-business free democratic party and the green party could be or could it itself as we've been talking about forming a coalition with the remaining parties is going to be a tough job for a glimmer of hope but it's not the only challenge ahead for the now fourth

chancellor more about that little kids. to many i'm going to merkel is the embodiment of stability in the face of crisis because in diplomacy with a firm hand and sound decision making well as for that skill this term has been marred by a series of setbacks firstly she decided to open the doors to asylum seekers at the height of the refugee crisis almost a million flooded into germany in twenty fifteen alone while some more welcoming others started to worry the country just wouldn't be able to cope. a year after mark a lot to open door policy germany saw a rise in margaret crimes one of the most shocking hundreds of women alleging they were sexually or. altered in cologne new year's celebrations by men of north africa

an hour of appearance. the events in cologne took their toll on merkel's popularity. the chancellor's controversial refugee policy is also blamed at least partly for something much more sinister and dangerous a rise in is the most terrorism. poorly vetted or later radicalized migrants cross the border germany saw multiple terror attacks take place markel faced biggest leadership crisis. for the interest.

on the gun to. finally the g twenty summit presents an international p.r. opportunity for chancellor merkel but while she advertised hamburg as a gateway to the world protest groups had other ideas welcome to hell and the authorities failed to prevent the chaos. the city descended into riots torched cars and pitched street battles with the police much of the media held her accountable for the chaos and for even choosing that venue to start with she may still be queen of the polls but merkel may need a fourth term just the right some of the mess she created in the third. it seems so well some european leaders meantime welcomed alternative of germany's success the

dutch far right leader maybe not surprisingly get the builders' posted a photo of himself or the f.t. chief for the election campaign prokop actually the news about her as we just saw she's decided to leave the party to forge a way forward some other way for us all saying that they're going to fight together for their countries in fact she turned around and called they have been much the surprise today. she wanted to see them becoming more moderate she walked out of the room the vote was also called a symbol of european awakening by the french national front leader as well the pain there was obviously on very closely the events here in neighboring germany of the last twenty four hours however some in berlin are horrified the nationalist party has entered parliament take a look at their. posts d.i.v. image that the h.d. enters the bundestag with approximately thirteen percent is a catastrophe for us i hope we won't have a big coalition but rather that the c.s.u. the f.d.p. and the greens will come together reasonably and that the s.p.d.

will come up with good arguments to the f.d.a. as opposition so that we weren't let them become stronger here in germany clar gordon he was clearly a get into the going to struggle what is the realisation that such a radical force is in parliament and it's terrifying to know that these people most into longside other politicians and than we were completely horror point that the f.d.a. had its hand i think it's actually saying it was the germany has gone down this path. i can tell you at some points last night the f.t. campaign headquarters here in berlin the some points last i looked it up to about two thousand protesters they're very angry at the police were called in there were some scuffles nothing particularly kicked off there but a lot of very angry people thankfully it didn't turn violent similar scenes across a number of other major cities as well across germany and we can tell you that. this time in twenty four hours to six o'clock tomorrow evening here in berlin a massive rallies been called for anyone who wants to come to complain show the

dismay and happiness about the getting in to power will be following that of course our correspondents will be staying on we'll be here for a couple of i would think kicks off but we're expecting something to be happening this time in twenty four hours time it will be interesting to see how many people do turn out thousands are rumored to be attending this protest tomorrow so it looks like these anti fascist protests are going to continue i don't know for how long for but it looks like in the coming days certainly we're going to see more rallies now some dismay some expressed dismay of some of the alternative to germany gains in the capital it was also evident across the country as you were just saying sake a look at some of the images we have. to queue what was said to smell you started really you know don't do it don't do it because you couldn't see half of it you know to me. it was. one of the biggest

sounds of fascist rallies gathered outside the if these headquarters as we've just been saying the protest and shouting at the party's leaders as they celebrated the election results the f.t. spokesperson says that the protest was so violent they couldn't leave the building over after you were covering this interleaving. the other was scuffles i didn't hear of any takers for the big left off they did you know there's a few scuffles there's a very large police presence then the protests continued even after the a.f.d. members had left the building but our correspondent left quite early no no violence tomorrow is going to be the first time with this isn't what it has had to say about last night. because in the city and for a large part due to get final you talked about muslim in st louis missouri. we are not that is respected but this is what he's naive people believe it is because we are furious about this party that stands by its our lives unless we continue and

move on to projects political discourse. early alcoholic meal javi heard from senior german diplomat frank l. but he was part of the negotiations for germany's read of the case and. we have the situation that we have since two thousand and five. all together. twelve years of a grand coalition that is bad for democracy it kills parliamentarian it doesn't allow an opposition party to degenerate i think we're just going to be fed up and we're looking for different alternatives the big parties made the mistake of demonizing the. status that they had not deserved so many to vote. to vote because they had thought that the only

way to voice their protest. didn't really address the problems of the nation let me talk for a moment of all the following if we have a number of crisis in this world at present we have a wave of possible immigrants. from africa wanting to come to europe and we don't know how to stop them we have the crisis was russia we have a european crisis now you would think that politicians would jump in. if you look at the deal with the between mrs merkel and mr ford's foreign political issue was not addressed once we have a poll. of german. staking that eighty one percent of the drone. population feels the need for me. the relationship between russia. and germany and they wish some sort of an improvement

of these relations which are quintessential. for the security of the europe if you could no such anxieties that exist in the population who make a mistake and you are right it's right to pour you'll be complacent. lawyer i can judge it because i don't have the evidence but as long as i don't have the evidence i keep quiet and i think this is not an issue which we should take seriously and definitely your audiences should not be awarded. we're going to be back here next hour live as we continue to pick a convoy speed of very eventful two thousand and seventeen federal election yes things winding down a bit now though let's take another view over the river spray just right outside the. house studio in central believe i can tell you that if you didn't see it less than two minutes with more of the international news which is always there is quite

a bit stale take it so that we hope see again that in forty five minutes from now with the latest ongoing coverage chauffeured the big election of the last twenty four hours here in the center of you. when else seems wrong. why don't we all just don't call. me. yet to shape out the state becomes active. and engaged equals betrayal. when somebody find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.

what politicians do. they put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. or some want to. have to go right to be close to survival before three of them or can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters of. the ship. where back in moscow with more international news a new human rights watch report tells accused the u.s.

led coalition of killing at least eighty four civilians near the syrian city of herat including thirty children back in march rocco's the of reports are from syria . in the unlikelihood more than eighty four people civilians were killed in two u.s.'s strikes even any of the syrian city of braca and those eighty four people well that's just the bodies cool enough to identify. strikes allegedly targeted a school kids and the bakery putting to human rights watch which carried out an investigation and published a forty two page report previously the u.s. led coalition had said that for doing that internal review they found the claims of alleged civilian casualties back spread to bill it's well human rights watch visited these locations they spoke to the people when they looked at the evidence and they found that the u.s. led coalition give a visit to these locations they never spoke to the people they never looked at the

evidence coalition forces have said the. there is insufficient evidence to conclude that civilians were killed in the attack on the school but as far as we know they did not visit the school they did not talk to any witnesses if they had they would have found plenty of evidence that civilians were killed in this case the question they're asking is whether the u.s. led coalition somehow these dozens and dozens of civilians present to these locations or whether they chose to ignore them whether they did care about them he also said that there were isis fighters at these locations but so would dozens and dozens of behind the c.b.d. we can't rely on the americans or the american military to. also investigate their own atrocities on the ground in syria that would be ridiculous would be like you know. providing the evidence to be held against them later points.

so no i think we we have to accept organizations like human rights watch and all those will do the investigations will interview the witnesses later stages of that's really the beginning of the legal structure that's taking form now i mean i'm quite confident that this is going to happen in the future you have seen the school. call for more on the report we can now bring in regional deputy director of human rights watch nineteen you're very welcome to the program this hour the figures are really quite startling aren't they eighty four people dead thirty children hit while in a school while in a queue for bread at the bakery should these type of targets not immediately have raised a red flag for the u.s. led coalition. yes we should. you know. there was some initial attention to earlier or. less investigation came.

striding. you know i suspect. are true it's not actually that there was actually and there isn't i didn't get that many civilians were killed dozens of the by our own account the. i mean as we know there were some isis presence and besides we know that isis does try to make it with the end of the not remove the only who are parties that they all precautions and this is why i'm sure the us. did not do its home or in. there were anything but the billions around and i would be violation of a national law or the universe is billions and aside anyways and. likely be buying. me under international law and it's also been months in the dean since the start of this so-called bottle for rock that city is

being of course very much in the forefront trying to battle against isis how many casualties are estimated during not and since that. you know it's very difficult. but we were investigations. and these were the areas around. us who are who are able to go there. are no groups within the council. because isis is granted the local it's not under the control access of the simonis information so we're only going. to locals here an organization of the estimated. one hundred and that's very worried about we don't know as soon as possible it's going to be access to these areas that are under fire right now just to pick up on a point you said earlier the coalition ses the u.s. led coalition says that seven hundred civilians have been killed in its operations

that's since twenty fourteen do those kind of figures tally with your groups and i appreciate it's very difficult to get a precise number but in a sense or do you think the coalition may intentionally perhaps underestimate collateral damage because collateral damage is something that we're seeing quite a lot of in recent times other monitoring groups we know do put the number higher than seven hundred. well it's clear i mean if you do to strive for we investigated as well some of the open air strikes. in this war it. will not have appear in a coalition according. yes we believe that the actual number being recorded by the coalition under-reports it now to keep question. and has been an ongoing subject of conversation issues with letters and requests between us and the whole it. i mean we believe that investigations that they are conducting are not

using all of this it's not enough to revive satellite imagery or grow the term and if there were civilians yes or no it's been proven time and time again that sometimes these high tech meet miss key information by going to come to survivors that my company has now one thing much more accurate picture and we believe this is the sort of investigation that will be required now the military should be doing that in the conduct of the operations but also there's a key role for n.g.o.s also will be proof that you were. only checking. and and sources of information to confront some of that information yes i do you say i don't we have been looking into other groups monitoring this there the levels of civilian casualties compared with out of what the pentagon the ses there is

a difference is it because possibly the way the investigation is not being carved i thirdly and because the pentagon says it doesn't vest to get all reports of civilian casualties to your knowledge is that true. well and you know and this is this is a group for instance on the east. one school that holds this police as well as some isis members. you want to see that coalitions that are the best the whether it's the eastern shore that there were no civilian casualties or actually you were there with insufficient and in the clinton were civilian because well when we asked them through all about how do you conduct their investigation in these were you know there were some secrets not shared with clearly the emotion was not sufficient to respond or now and the second strike one of them are going to date. to this

news media. and the investigation about it. is that we don't have you read the evidence but we are still waiting for an answer you know this is something that human rights watch has been pushing now in syria from me asking all or more transparency the better the reporting to its million protection at the heart of operations. just just finally while we have you because one of the one of the things we heard a little bit earlier this year was from the american defense. he said that civilian casualties are a fact of life referring to the campaign to liberate the city of mosul not rock out this time does that reflect to your mind america's approach perhaps to collapse or old damage that as long as we get the tourists some deaths of civilians are perhaps something that happen in wartime. now you know this was

a very. crucial correspondence with. alicia and. it's got a horribly i mean very special position is that the cautions that in. honor of strikes. there were no. we. didn't think some measures are not for them and in this report there are two major ones as well the small and then is where civilians were you know not clear why. this is at a minimum. and. cautions now this indifference and lot of or was this just this need. only an independent thorough investigation and as. we look at this and this is what we need to push for also another key recommendation in this war is this nation with

knowledge of men all the victim because. basically you know they want either an apology they want to read the mission of the harm that happened to them and. in these that video becomes coalition is leaving many of these the only reason we appreciate you staying on the line there the connection was not great but we really wanted to hear what you had to say so thank you regional deputy director of human rights watch nadeem. just a point to add to all that we are requesting comment from u.s. central command the latest human rights watch report that we've been speaking about soon as we get a response we will let you know. all the news for this hour will be going back to berlin for the latest on the reaction to the twenty seventeen federal german

election and more news as well next hour. my i. think. the reason why north korea is trying to develop the capability to. prevent japan and the united states from assisting south korea in case. contingencies

because with. the missile capability is capable of attacking japan and the united states north korea can say oh the americans and japanese if you assist south korea. with nuclear weapons. you. see no working next. man wouldn't. according to the cie it is home to the most powerful drug syndicates why you grow. tomatoes. all of the. time and for your money watch the people.
