scandal of the involvement of the far right alternatif in germany in a regional election in which mr crump. and control of the party have been threatened and weakened she announced her decision as a news conference here in berlin and for sizing that it would not affect the country's coalition government. but then something as far as i'm concerned this has no impact on the stability of the grand coalition government i was the party leader and i am the party leader and i will remain in this position for the forseeable future of what i have said is that i will not run for chancellor but other than that the situation has not changed let's get more mission d.w. political correspondent simon young welcome simon what's behind this decision well there were too many problems for him a great current bar too much pressure on her and i think she never really ultimately put her stamp of all thora t. on the party even angela merkel's decision to appoint her as german defense minister was enough to secure her the backing in particular of the right wing of the c.d.u. and she faced too many detractors with
