me the a snack and neck in germany. federal election with exit polls. putting the center left s p. d policy just ahead of the routing, c d signaling that what could be a change of direction for the country in the post. marco era will have special coverage or will bill to be an extremely tight race for the chance for ship. and the way the top stories are not see the russian sales pair, move the loss of 6 people killed in a universe to show think our correspond and trace of the steps of the gunman steadily. ron page. this is the exact road the perpetrator took while he was carrying out his vicious planet. and frances political dialogue with nature is known existence as the us and britain struggle to comb french and get

a security pox with us trailer ah you're watching the news are now seen can nationally meet you last 5 our the thing for joining us. the votes and now in the count is on in germany, the federal election would be outcome set to determine who will replace angular, marcos, chancellor. and what will be the fast change at the top in over a decade and a half the the 1st exit polls are rain and they all indicate that support from michael's c d. c. as you policy has shrunk considerably since the last word in 2017 germany said

the f news channel put the social democrats in the lead with 26 percent with the routing christian democrats in 2nd place with 24.2 percent of the vote. thirty's, big green policy with 14.3 percent, then comes free to my classic policy with 11.5 percent. go turns for germany. party gone is 10.6 percent and the left party only just passes the 5 percent threshold. and let's now look more closely. i will devote means john, mr. day, one, directly choosing a chancellor. they were electing members of the burned to stock who will now go about picking a chancellor to lead or in practice is always a coalition government to rethink to balance paper is the furthest for he comes that in the electro district. there are $299.00 such conflictions as across the country. and the 2nd ballot is for a political party. there are $47.00, i've been buying for seats, but only partners with more than 5 percent of the nationwide can and parliament

with no single party expected to secure an absolute majority. coalition talked seem inevitable. also is peter oliver, breaking down the possible option for its vote as close thing get here in germany. as it stands, the social democrats, the center left party, are ahead by a whisker in this most recent poll. in fact, they look like they're about to put on around an extra 5 percent of what they picked up back in 2017. this would be one of the biggest comebacks in lots of us because just even earlier this year, they looked well out of the running. and that's probably one of the reasons why they're candidate for chancellor. all shots seems quite a bit if i make the affiliates in. i'm happy to see so many here today. and of course i'm happy about the election results. not the germans have decided. the social democrats are on their way to make success. this will be

a long election make sure, but what's the certain as well is that many germany put that cross next to the s p d because they want to change in the government and because they want the next chancellor of this country to be lashing. so there was quite a different mood on show at the headquarters for the center, right? conservative union that's made up of the christian democratic union. and in bavaria the christine social union, they look likely to drop around 9 percent of what they pulled back in 2017. i mentioned the christian social union in bavaria for on 32.5 percent. if that comes in the around that well, that would be the lowest numbers date posted since 1949. farrah thought the conservative block set for pops that worst ever showing in the bone the stock. they have spent the last 16 years in power with angular merkel at the helm. it's now looking unlikely, or looking, uncertain whether there'll be a part of the next government us all this is nick,

neck race. this election is an exceptional situation. at present. we don't have any certain outcome any certain figures, but we can already say that we can not be satisfied with the results. and yet, the outcome of election still unclear this will be not current, yet shawn's eigen. well, germany is all about coalitions when it comes to who rules the country. so let's have a look at some of the, the mathematical possibilities based on how things look at the moment. the grand coalition is between the center right in the center left. that's what's rural germany for the last 4 years or unlikely that is what's going to be going forward basically, because it's, it's unlikely it's unknown whether they will get over the 50 percent needed of seats in the the stock in order to form a coalition. government will then start looking through those coalitions that involve 3 parties, the traffic light coalition, so called because of the, the colors of the policies involved. that's the read of the social democrats, the greens of the green party, and the yellow of the free democrats. there's also the germany coalition that

deutschland coalition on sometimes called the mickey mouse coalition, by those that don't particularly like it. that's because it makes up the colors of the german flag or the other colors of disney's mouse. that's the red of the social democrats, the black of the conservative union, and the yellow of the free democrats. and that is particularly popular with business, not so much with anybody else. that brings us on to 2 national flag coalitions that you make a coalition, which is between the conservative union, the green party, and the free democrats. plenty of questions would be raised with that one. then there's the kenya coalition. so called because of the can you flag as i mentioned, that's red, black and green. know mark is zada, who's the leader of the various christiy and social union. quite finds these a jamaica coalition will of course he would, that would see him or his party at least to remain in government. what we are hearing though is when it comes to coalition talks, it may well be the free democrats, the pro business, low tax party, the greens,

they want to see more taxes on the pro environmentalist agenda. they may have to hammer out coalition talks before they involve the one the lion's share of the vote . because if those 2 conform relation, if they can work together, then they can be the king makers and decide who gets to be chancellor. a long way to go yet we knew this was going to be tight. i don't think we really realized exactly how tight until we've seen these figures. and let's take a closer look. i will. each of the 3 leading part is fans full. so the social democrats, which are in the lead, want to see much more stick action on climate change. and they are in favor of nor immigration and free trade. the part hills to support the creation of a european army while upholding germany's nato commitments and the s p d. c is a good time with russia as buying hopefully european piece. second in the polls a, b s. b, c, d. c su alliance,

which until now was fronted by angular michael. that campaign. so going to is to make good things better in the post merkle iraq, they're promising to title immigration rules and comp taxes for low to middle income workers and, and foreign policy. they see relations with russia and china as the main challenges facing germany, called the green party with other 14 percent of the bud seeks to combat climate change and develop infrastructure. they're also in favor of more integration and a rise in the minimum wage. why also supporting a universal basic income despite approving a, germany's nathan membership, they stand against nuclear weapons and the greens won't topher policies on russia and china have also reported that some police stations in berlin, one out of the papers. it's also been said that they were not able to get deliveries quick enough as roads are closed due to the annual math and also how this sunday angle americans preferred choice in the political race. all men lush,

it round everyone's attention at the polling station. when he accidentally reveal his ballad to photography, i'll say it was already filled in and we discussed with the new government might look like with dr. o' rafe buckner and professor at european studies at stanford university in berlin and steven meisner of police on list. it feels very good for the total democrats to be in a position like this when they have the lead for the very 1st time since 2002. on the other hand, it might leads to a few months until we finally know who's going to be the winner. and it can even be that the social democrats don't really offer enough to that junior partners. it's most likely that they need to because i don't think that the spirit and the grand coalition between the social democrats and the christian democratic union would allow swap of places. the social democrats will take the chancellor re and the

christian democratic union only the vice chancellor that cd was in such a bad condition after makeover that i don't see this happening. so there will be something like a free party coalition. and that can take a long time until they agree on what is done nailed down in a coalition treaty, c, d. u has never had any elect results anywhere close as bad as they have tonight. lasha doesn't for the next government, i think the knives are going to come out in the c d, u. and there's going to be like real butchery going on. they have to basically do is to renew them to renew the party and have any hope of ever regaining above 30 percent again. so voting, serving germany and exit polls. jones, the country could be headed for a change of direction would be s p d just slightly ahead of merkel a c d. c. s. he still too close to call, but we'll keep you updated as those results come in.

the said been shrink, have been not tight heightened, state of alert and because of a ball down as early as a convoy of 7 tongues was reportedly observed heading towards kosovo. so they do circulating on line suggest belgrade is deploying his troops. i mean soaring pensions with christina escalation for louis course with decision to require 7 drivers entering the region to obtain a new license plate issued by close of owed to the registration to the registration of the habit of talk near the border in reaction course of his prime minister says, said there is provoking and international conflict, individuals and groups whose activities endanger the rule of law and public order are attacking or state and disturbing the peace. they are clearly encouraged and

supported by serbia. serbia is using the citizens of kosovo to provoke a series international conflict. christine is absolute occupation of northern cost and metro hija is taking place in that international silence. however, everyone starts to worry immediately when they see serbian helicopters and planes over the territory of central serbia. apparently they should not take off without the approval of the prime minister of kosovo, cutty or someone from the international community. so that does not recognize its former pro province of course about as a separate nation. and thus it considers that mutual buddha is only a temporary boundary. the eu has called on both sides to defeat the pensions. costco and serbia must find solutions to diffuse. the situation and agree on the way forward, the e. u will actively support these efforts, both cost of answer be and lead as a fully responsible for any risks to the safety and well being of local communities . and the lead time cross live to international affairs expert and marco gothic now

. okay. hello that. so can this escalation of tensions on the border between serbia and course of a lead to an actual military conflict? i think that's almost impossible. i think it's this is another, this is just to show from a survey points of view president rudy wants to show he's taking the pain in leaderships unilateral behavior seriously. and so he's sending a domestic signal with these user planks. and jess, i don't, he's going to breast nato, which is occupying the so the total cost of a moments. he's not impress then very much with his military hardware, but he will least make people at home feel better. i think the real question is, why is this happening? and i think what we have here is a us attempt to up up the answer as well. i mean, what seems to be happening is that things are too quiet for washington's face,

and they're encouraging the albanian, the leadership to the temperature. so the west come in pressure, so we have to lower the temperature as always happens, right? so basically you're saying that the license play dispute is not the only reason for that collation. no, that's sorry. i don't think that in a leader could see anything about number plays whatsoever. this is just an attempt to make things more unstable. as i say to the temperature of discussion. so then pressured to lower the temperature through confession when mo thing is a bit popsicle, really. but in the why the picture we have, i say washington advising the paintings. we have a president, would you say perhaps too much advice from tony lap. so you really have western participants on both sides. you could say that the main axes here all bite in

a black row. courage could see and bush. so in a way we, we have here just kind of an elegy, political situation by proxy with the old news using performing the usual lean role of appeasing the empire. that seems to be around at the time. so what can actually be done to defuse the situation and restore peace or concessions can be made by, by, by side? well, the side that may be unilateral move should see, but it shouldn't have for better or worse. is locked in negotiations with christina, cost of all of shoes in brussels, in the e. u and any new moves are supposed to be agreed by both sides. say we have one of the slides. absolutely. you're actually doing what it likes, and pressuring the local serbs threatening them. we know that the ethnic cleansing

threat over the civil surviving serves, of course, is a real one. so this is one size, the leadership advised by washington behaving intellectually creating a crisis. so any concessions should we buy them? we should basically be de escalation or that tendency to escalate. right, so the, the he is actually calling on both sides to come down on private, found anything, but it was a thing he's both side down. the one side has been extremely aggressive, right? that could be, you further intervene what it could, but it never will. i mean, what needs to happen is that the baby is in the 2nd half land. the law needs to be given a sense of reality about what they've already managed to get for themselves and to understand that they can't just keep going in the same direction because they never really explained to that. they can't have everything. they believe they can get everything because they have washington on their side and you following all. so

while 15 things that can get everything, it will never concede anything, it remain aggressive. i'm not degeneration with what's happening. what's being done by the obedient leadership in cost of all of the moments. right. and again, course about how the keys said they have provoking international conflicts. do you think that's true? well, it can't be because culturally the positive, it's an interest serbia counseling, but we have an occupied public which is cultural and to call it by a proper name. and that's the part that's got the succession is obedient, love 20 years, who are pretending that the countries and they've been ethnically cleansing anybody who disagrees with them. so that's the situation is a situation with in serbia, which is the partition by nato occupation. that's not in special conflict by any no definition. right. i'm not gonna take care. thank you very much. indeed. international f as x, but thanks very site. thank you. the central russia they

have pair isn't morning after this week's university gun massacre. 6 people were killed on monday, allegedly by student, him classmates described as a silent and lonely teenager. just the what a warning you may find the following images disturbing. another 40 people were wounded in the shooting. most of them students, many are still fighting for their lives conference. the rush called husband retracing the steps taken by the killer. it says the exact road the perpetrator took while he was carrying out his vicious plan. and this is, by the way, the exec street, where he fired at a passing car as he was making his way towards the campus. ah, the gunman showed up at the university faculty building. and this is where he was 1st filmed by terrified students. they were staring at him as he strode across the

park with a hunting rifle, ammunition wrapped around his body. he doesn't use the me i didn't. but when i was leaving university, a group of people had already gathered that tons out. 15 minutes earlier, we could have been in that situation. it was very scary. we usually can be a building the next time we are in the 1st building. out that it was this little practice today. ah, ah, that's the building where are these horrific scenes unfolded just meters away from

where we're standing now? people were jumping from a height of about 4 meters spalding heavily onto the ground. many of them have suffered serious injury because of that hasty evacuation my fee was among those who jumped. this is him on the video falling from the window. fortunately, he didn't suffer any injuries, unlike other students. movie gillian, we saw a guy walking across the square holding a gun, aiming a top building. he fired a shot and then disappeared from our line of sight in them. we realized we had to do something better with us. sprint has been identified as an 18 year old freshman at the university and a social media post he made. shortly before he embarked on the shootings, he talked about hatred for mankind in general, and that he'd been planning to commit a mass murder for several years. yeah, well it looks like nobody's in there. this is the suspects department. this is

where he lived with his mother and neighbors told us that after she was called in by the investigative committee, she then decided to move elsewhere away from the media. attention near the house, we met the suspect. former classmates remembered him as a silent and lonely teenager who didn't have a lot of friends. they also run into him the morning he went to shoot people on to quibble when he was quiet and shy, not very sociable and he always slower when he walked in the news of the game that day. he walked differently. that day. he walked with confidence quickly with broad steps. and of course the main question in everyone's mind now is how 18 year old got hold of a firearm. while he bought it legally, he passed the medical test he was added by. it's a hi triest who apparently had found anything odd about this quiet young man. there was even footage taken in one of the gun stores on the outskirts of berm right here . where are the light shooter?

purchased himself. ammo as he was getting ready for the mass. murder, ah ah, we were welcome at the store. if we can get your name was crystal clear about this tragedy is that it could have been much worse if it hadn't been for 2 heroic traffic police officers who just happened to be in the vicinity. when the shooting started, both officers rushed to the campus with one of them quickly running into the attacker who opened fire. that officer consented calling in return, fire, wounding the suspect, and then he administered 1st 8, or the gun mans and hospital in a serious condition. although he has revived and even regained conscious,

i can say that about the city though hard because of perm is still trying to come to terms with the nightmare that has just happened. and as you can see, people are still gathering at this make shift memorial to honor the memory of the deceased the us and britain us crumbling to man, direct with france. after sidelining the l. i, in a security patch with a trailer biden, has now admitted it was wrong to trying to deal behind. paris is back. that sounds are the french defense troops had political dialogue with nato has all but disappeared. let you to visit, as you knew, the attitude of the united states toward the submarine program as a further investigation of zation that we have been making for months today. political dialogue is non existent within the atlantic lions. and he's done a quarter reports now on the cranks appearing within the western move alliance. and how the british fun minutes face handling the fresh. what, what do you say?

you have only a have a great mutual protection, a greater common purpose. all this seems to go out the window and there's a bit of money to be made. the recent controversy surrounding the u. s. u. k, and australia. new security pack has left in new leaders scratching their heads about what even means to be in nato anymore. the reason for nato existence is transatlantic security. this is what we want to remind the united states off. therefore, our partners decided on our initiative as well as on the initiative of germany to revise the strategic concept of the alliance. being allies does not mean being hostage to the interests of another country. at 1st, the spat seem confined to only a few powers friends being upset with the suspension of its submarine contract with australia, which resulted from hawkess's provisioning of nuclear sub technology to the country . and the entire strategic alliance is feeling the reverb. it is such

a difficult issue where we see traditional alliances in some way torn apart are certainly changed fundamentally. but the issue doesn't stop there. wondering, doesn't even feel like they've done anything wrong. it's 3 very like minded allies, standing shoulder to shoulder, creating a new partnership for the sharing of technology. it is not exclusive, i did not trying to to shoulder anybody. i did not add the stereo towards china, e u states feeling like they were left, hung out to dry, the u. s. and u. k. and making decisions without consulting their friends with nato's ongoing friendship. crisis airing it's member states dirty laundry. many are finding it hard to see a strong united future for the west over 7 decade long military alliance. nato was considered by franz a month ago, year to go by president my whole as brain dead. a brain dead alliance, best strong words within nato. they want to revise the concept,

he's teaching concepts and bring it back actually to the north atlantic. because if you follow america, nato will soon be in the pacific, cruising around china with us. this is not the way nature was conceived and it shouldn't be there. europeans should not be in that region of the world. markets said repeatedly that we should enlarge our vision any desperately look to something to do. that's the reality. you know, we are in that. i mean, maintain what's in the scanner. stuff is in iraq. to train the forces, that's the limits of the extension. this is not the north atlantic anymore, is it? london and washington have both welcome to see or casteel, but time between the 2 countries aren't exactly going supply and joe biden has play down the chances of a pose briggs, a trade deal with the u. k. and that's res. further down over the so name, special relationship as simon right explains. remember the old joke. how can you

tell a politician who's lying because their lips move? well, joe biden embark johnson sold that problem when they met in washington. the last event is that the western well dashed down for new york for a special meeting in washington, the kind of weird news conference where everyone pretends the special relationship is still a thing. even though we all know is not really the facade of sin, these they, they don't even really use the phrase. and in the absence of anything else, they just ordered the bond over trying to keep down an abstract. is that right? i did. you did the 1000000 miles i'll stay the rest of that. the train back went on for about 2 minutes. the mission for the british prime minister was to spin the very obvious truth. the post brack that britain passed basically no chance of getting a free trade deal with us anytime. yep. biden's said no without actually saying

we're going to talk about trade in today. and we're gonna have to work that through work it through. indeed, some report suggests that britain is going to try and bought in the back door of a trade off between the us, canada, mexico. anyway, every time someone brings up the idea of a free trade deal with britain buy and does that weird thing where a bank owned about the north border. and they were, however, very keen to try and show how united they are ahead of the 26 climate summit in law's. going to come november, you made a commitment on supporting the the world to adapt it to climate change, doubling the american commitment that very important for our school. so like everything else is just for diplomatic show reports in january, suggested the u. s. o britain to get a grip on how it was planning conference, essentially washington telling britain to plan its own policy. so the special relationship is in this kind of place now, where every now and again washington, throw the boat in britain's way. just keep the whole thing taking. so boy finally

got an invite to the white house, off the 2 years. down close they. of course they had the job, the bottom, the orchestra in the military lines in australia. because while trade deal the hard military deal to a penny with a lot, the most telling me was this one page one house off and ending the news conference going forward with the literally in the middle of a sentence. before the boy himself fed on the plane over to the us time, and sure biden has a lot of fish to fry down traces in buffalo, new orbit throwing bottle that police setting vehicles on file on leaving restaurants in a 2nd night of intense prose. heads violence

rotted at the end of the festival on the beach. as the jubilant asthma said, the old anto calles police reported the dozens of people were injured in malay, at least, demonstrators have, have been detained. firefighters were called to be seen as protest to set fire to motorcycles within the community of the beach front. and then brings us up to date for they saw the moon use about 30 minutes. sign up next to the document. re the the the, the, the what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy.
