in those legal situations again so uncle americal would prefer to base all the decisions that everybody is taking on the number of new infections on certain other scientific measures but really she is also limited by the legal situation here she said for example that she would have preferred a situation where the state premier as would have based their decision making on when it comes to reopening schools and kindergartens on the number of new infections bazzi said she's also facing the reality that state premiers when it comes to reopening schools and connect arms have lots of other factors to take into account and so she staying out of that and she is very aware she said that she can't interfere that these the elections coming up for many of these state premiers she also mentioned the vaccination vaccination strategy that has gone off to a very very slow start here in germany and pointed also to europe and defended the decision to leave the buying of the vaca vaccination of the vaccines to the european union what did she have to say about that it is very rare when angle americal uses.

about those mutations especially because the vaccination program has been so slow here so uncle americal defended the decision taken with the 16 state premiers on wednesday night that now is not the time for a proper return to normality and instead the lockdown will be extended till the 7th of march medical had her way it would have been the 14th of march so even later and they will meet again on the 3rd of march to reassess the situation and was also new is that they are now saying that in order for the 1st reopening steps to be able to be taken they have to reach the districts have to reach a number of new infections of 35 per 100007 days rather than fifty's and century under medical asked for yet more patients ok and she's made the goal really abundantly clear was that goal shared by the rest of parliament. well the goal to fight the virus is of course one that is shared by everybody but there was a lot of criticism of the details so by the far right of the party for example that questions the entire decision making process as factually and legally wrong and the liberal f.t.p. party a

americal could barely conceal her relief after joe biden's victory it's good and for. president biden we simply have a much wider range of political agreement. but that doesn't mean that the u.s. and germany suddenly agree on everything they really don't so we're going to take a look at 3 issues that are right at the top of the transatlantic agenda. first up north stream into a russian natural gas pipeline under construction to germany that team biden says must never be completed. because it divides europe it exposes ukraine and central europe to russian russian manipulation and because it goes against europe's own stated energy and security goals the us is even threatening sanctions against companies involved in the project here in berlin the government says that that is no way to treat an ally so the big question is can merkel and biden find some sort of compromise next china the rising giant challenging u.s. leadership in almost every thinkable way and shocking the democratic world with its crackdown on freedoms in hong kong. the u.s. and china are entering a period

of course so this is sort of the ground that they're going to meet in and at the same time uncle americal and the state premiers are going to discuss just when this 1st reopening steps can be taken so the draft paper that we've seen that is the basis for discussion says that the lockdown will continue till the 14th of month of march now this can of course still be shaken up but then we're expecting a long debate as well about just which infection rates need to be reached in order for the states to reopen gradually everybody agrees that schools and kindergartens need to come 1st and there the draft paper says that that will be up to the regional leaders to decide ok if those surveys are really decisive day in terms of those measures you know you know also there is a bit of a debate going on in the country right now we mentioned that america is meeting with the 16 leaders of the german federal states because there's a federal system in place in the country lots of debate about how effective that structure has been when it comes to officiant concrete and streamlined action phyllis and there.

europe is going to have to step up many european leaders actually agree during the trump is uncle americal often spoke of the need for europe to take more responsibility for it serves curity side. and then beyond of unknown. fairly often go on. even those to fall by. that's obvious and in that garden earlier well that's not counting of the video oh you know muslims are shit 3rd berkeley's you know what i'm going to have them but that's in theory what about in practice when the lofty ambitions come with a price tag here in germany for example military spending is the portion of g.d.p. has preserved in the past couple of years but it's not expected to hit a target of 2 percent for some time to come. and in the aftermath of the mind to make government spending cuts come under massive pressure the population i'm used to paying for its own defense and an enthusiastic regulatory action may push back against big budgets or. after decades of depending ringback on the us to such an extent is it really realistic for the e.u. to find it so what we can do underestimate what america has there own the d

it is very rare when angle americal uses. political tools like referring to the world war as of cause one of germany's. i mean germany's current modern germany's biggest traumatizes the until america referred to world war 2 as the reference point from which on words modern germany decided to take all the major decisions together with its european partners so that was very strong language from anglo-american in this context she really wanted to get that message out we're only as strong as europe is and so this is something where she is not going to give in to anybody who's criticizing that strategy you have to keep in mind that germany is surrounded by 9 european member states so the virus doesn't know any borders we know that the virus can travel into germany from basically lots of places and so uncle americal is convinced that the european way is the way forward but of course the german federal structure has also led to a situation where the vaccine rollout has been very slow now there is a bit of light on the horizon now wi

china agreed just sweeping investment treaty aimed at boosting business between the 2 sides uncle americal was the trifling force behind the deal saying it would bring fairness to european companies working in china what really stood out about this deal was the timing it was squinting. just at the end of the year and as germany's presidency of the european union was about to come to an end and crucially it was more than 3 weeks before the biden of new straits was about to come into office it was so last minute that the biden 2 interviews directly appealing in a tweet for the europeans to great and took a battered joint approach. the european side shrug that off and went ahead with the deal anyway seizing on chinese concessions and delivering a huge diplomatic boost to beijing in turn it could hardly have been a more powerful signal from berlin and brussels to the bike ministration cannot count on automatic support from europe in dealing with china. while the e.u. professed openness to working closely with the biden team ultimately their own interests came 1st those interests a pretty clear

the 4 years of the trumpet ministration were a toxic age for transatlantic relations americal could barely conceal her relief after joe biden's victory it's good. with president biden we simply have a much wider range of political agreement. but that doesn't mean that the u.s. and germany suddenly agree on everything they really don't so we're going to take a look at 3 issues that are right at the top of the transatlantic agenda. first up north stream into a russian natural gas pipeline under construction to germany that team biden says must never be completed to deal because it divides europe it exposes ukraine and central europe to russian mint russian manipulation and because it goes against europe's own stated energy and security goals to us is even threatening sanctions against companies involved in the project here in berlin the government says that that is no way to treat an ally so the big question is can merkel and biden find some sort of compromise next china the rising giant challenging us leadership in almost every thinkable way and shocking the democratic world with its crackd

important nord stream to gas line project that will pump natural gas from russia to germany uncle americal has said that this will remain unaffected by the diplomatic tensions that europe should not become unilaterally energy dependent on russia we've seen increase calls to for sanctions by the german foreign minister hiker mohs this is something that he is going to discuss with his counterparts on the e.u. level on february 22nd so that having reverberations the world of course a verdict can we expect. well of course we don't know how the court will rule in this case but it bears being say and or it bears saying rather that the russian judiciary system has never been particularly sympathetic to mr have only in the past however if he is convicted he's widely not expected to face additional jail time of course he does he is looking down the barrel of a 2 to 3 year jail term moving forward anyway. the russian government hands that these are serious charges but in of all these team itself says basically amounts to legal harassment they say that they're attempting to hurt his reputation in the

should happen but germany's relationship with russia of course is complicated by nord stream to angle americal and coalition partners are sticking with the gas pipeline project. and they say it's important for germany's energy supply and they just want to get it finished but the voices that oppose the project are growing louder donald trump was against states and the interesting there's been a big political scandal story here this week here with revelations that the finance minister schultz was trying to persuade the trump administration to change its mind on nordstrom by promising to build terminals here in germany to receive american gas supplies as well as russian ones in any case berlin now is hoping that the biden administration might be a bit more agnostic on nord stream hoping to get talks off the ground but it's very difficult there's a lot of opposition you know there's opposition from the u.s. there's opposition from a lot of e.u. countries to nordstrom and now we've got russia threatening to break off ties a very difficult situation it's a multicolored fight tensions between russia

they truly do like a lot of what they are hearing and we just heard it in the report their uncle americal actually saying that the the outlook was brightening for multilateralism you know this belief that countries should work together to solve the world's problems rather than the america 1st attitude of donald trump she said that that was brightening and that was because of joe biden but both my merkel and my core focused a lot less on this theme of biden's speech was always the biggest theme within it of a sort of a battle of the systems between democracies north or a terence with a particular view towards russia and china. mark all stressed that europe still has to work with russia medical stress that china was needed to solve global problems so both of them sounding pretty cagey about this idea of really kind of taking a democratic fight to those authoritarian powerless because it does seem that russia and china are going to be big issues on which the u.s. and the e.u. will have completely different approaches. yeah and i think i mean obviously these are early days administration is j

but can german citizens also imagine him as chancellor as the successor to uncle americal machall has said she will not run in this fall's general election and for the 1st time since its party party's big 3 the polls in for a test deem up who germans would vote for ephedra lections were held on sunday well the c.d.u. c.s.u. would get 34 percent which is a drop of one percentage point since polling last year the social democratic s.p.d. party would gain one percentage point the far right d remains at 10 percent followed by the business friendly f.t.p. and the left and the green party would remain 2nd strongest in the country with 21 percent support. the crane is our chief political correspondent and joins us now to help us make sense of all these numbers good to see you again melinda germany's conservatives they picked their chancellor candidate but the earth they have not picked their chancellor candidate rather they have chosen the new party leader tell us more about this poll . well i wouldn't read too much into the call at this early stage the fact is other potential chancellor can

there were good reasons for the slower pace and that trust is essential in the delivery process americal also gave more details about when germans can expect to get their shocked does. in 5 the end of the 3rd quarter but at the end of the summer we'll be able to offer every citizen a maxine. that the manufacturers are also told us today that something that they can always occurred during production and they also will have no prior experience of things but i think the numbers for the different quarters overall already very relevant. and let's bring in our chief political correspondent melinda crane melinda walk us through the messaging here it sounds like merkel is saying this is a marathon not a sprint. absolutely it was very clear from yesterday's vaccine summit that the supply that that of the vaccine will remain tight for at least another 8 weeks and only begin to ease up in the 2nd quarter of this year and moreover it was very clear that german leaders are looking far beyond this year alone the health minister said that he wants to ensure that adequate stocks of vaccine are in place

schools and in which shape or form this is the right time to remind everybody that in the end angle americal come would you decide very much it is always up to the individual states to take decisions and implement what is agreed round the table and here we are clearly shifting from the drive to have a unitary approach across germany to push for an implementation plan that would allow for regional or even local openings and dropping of the lockdown if the figure is improved and if the infection rates drop locally to give people a perspective and something to work towards rather than a continuation of a nationwide it's locked down and that's where those state premiers will start the discussion this evening and we can be very very curious indeed how much this current formula 50 infections per 100000 people 7 weeks will be redefined because that's really the target everybody has been working towards to lift a lockdown event and getting those 16 state from yours to agree on one strategy is of course a very big challenge in fact germany's federalism has come up time and time again in political dis

government to take the action it did and emmanuel mcconnell speaking in a digital conference with angle americal the 2 had been meeting in a digital format as part of a franco german security council well mr merkel made very clear in his opinion he had condemned firmly everything that happened in the process that mr novelli found himself in from the moment he was poisoned back in august to now where he finds himself in a prison serving a freshly imposed prison sentence and so you have to view what's the use reaction to what has happened on friday through that prism remember that the 2 leaders merkel and mccann have been perhaps the most strongly spoken in condemning what has happened to mr never knew and the way that the situation has evolved over the course of the past few months and so on that basis the explains the sort of language we're hearing now coming both from paris and from berlin dominic thank you very much dominic came there live for us in berlin let's go to moscow correspondent there alexandra gold for so alexandra or what's the signaling here from the kremlin . well it is interesti
