that meeting was called in by a cdu — christian democrat — official.n democrats and asking them what went wrong there, why they invited martin sellner, who is not a member of ours and never will be? and, well, it's not important what he does. he was one of the presenters. nobody discussed anything. and what they discussed did never, ever enter into our programme. i'm really bored and sick of saying... i've been saying that for one year now because it is all wrong. the interior minister of your country, when she read about this meeting and she knew that afd people were involved in that meeting, she said it was, quote, "reminiscent of the horrible wannsee conference" — of course, a reference to that terrible meeting of the nazis. oh, come on... that's what she said. oh, come on. this is really becoming ridiculous now. everything is bogus. everything is wrong. especially that term is really incredibly wrong. and it's really... well, we're talking about the nazis here, so... well, i'm quoting to you... we have nothing to do with them... crosstalk ..the fed

if you look at the christian democrats parts you program, so it is according to their party programs, you do use about the age at which people can retire should be things to, to, to, they're more talis you. right? so does that mean they should work until the 17th the engine, after paying into the pension system for 4 to 5 years, people shouldn't be able to retard. this is why the christian democrats are suggesting people who have worked the whole lives should not be able to address this is completely unfair. instead, we suggest stabilizing the pension level quickly, because guaranteeing pensions is something that is going to expire on the 1st of july. that's just 7 months away unless and if we don't increase this guarantees and people's pensions was decreasing value year for year. what is that? if not shortening people's pensions the college of, of the program, the search by o, within 1st bridge, i won the last elections by promising that every citizen in our country would have a right to respect wherever this respect may come from, wherever these people come from, whatever they do wh

then there's chancellor want be friedrich, merce of the pool leading christian democrats who seems to already be campaigning for the late february election. that this vote is now triggered on the idea of being more of a case up to the you and to washington. then schultz ever was like, that's germany's big issue right now, that it wasn't sick the found taken off under salts. mertz said that it was quote, embarrassing how schultz acted into european union. now schultz shrugged off north stream, being blown up. and mertz doesn't think that he was enough of a team player. then you have the german anti establishment parties. try me in the left wing, pointing out that mr. piece here. schultz has a bit of a weapon, spending problem. and suggesting that murtz already came close to triggering a world war when he wasn't even the chancellor. yet it's a good time to stay moxie and glorious end of a government that has noticeably and permanently west and people's lives. they present themselves as chancellor of peace, and yet they support the largest rearmament program in the history of the allianc

that's why in a hospital from the christian democrats, he has spoken of a terrible events taking place. he is heading to the to the scene. the rescue services are reported by german news media of talking of as i say, schools of wounded. now that number some say perhaps 60 some say perhaps 18th, i have to be careful to say here, there is no independent confirmation of that like clause. there are suggestions of at least one photography, but again, that has not been confirmed. it is being reported by german news media, but it has not been confirmed separately. and there are also suggestions coming from the officials of the state that sucks any on the hub, which is the states in the old east, germany to what's the fact that people are talking of an attack. now again, not have to be very clear, fast who's being reported by news media, who are sole thing on identified sources within security services, but that has not been confirmed as of yet. and dominic, we are seeing live video on our screens of that street that the driver drove through plowed through at that christmas market. and you had

that fact that the conservative leader of the christian democratic freighters mounts is here to well he had said in the book to sign in the german palmer in the course of the week is just elapse. he said one central plank of his policies, policies, policy going into the election is the security of this country to make germany more secure as it used to be. he said, what was that comment for 9? be in stock focus on the basis of what has happened to, you know, question other policies. also speaking about what has happened to the f d, the alternative germany far right party that lead candidate alice vitus saying, when will this mathis end onto it? as she said, that's yesterday evening. following use of this tax, even though we now know it has been suggested that the person who the police suspects is responsible for this attack was making posts so retreats in content that was positive about the if day. so no question about this issue security, what people feel in christmas markets, but also what they feel in general society is going to be a serious issue and it will be tied to immigration

also the prime minister of the states was faxed to me on how to find a house enough in the christian democrats booking about this being a terrible event that is taking place in a state. all right, i'm gonna go stay with us. we'll come back to you in a few moments for more details for the moment that dominic cane i'll just here as dominic can live for us on the phone. and he's heading to the scene, have more details for us shortly. raphael, but song is a research associates specializing in european internal security at the german institute for international and security affairs. he joins us now from berlin. let me ask your official security services, say that this appears to be an attack. what do you make of what we've seen thus far as well? on the one hand, it's unfortunately symbolic day because it's all only the last friday before then reading the final christmas evening, but of credit last week and before christmas. but it's 8 years since the last, very, very senior terrorist attack in germany is an attack on the christmas market in berlin itself, in 2016, which kills about 16 people and wa

the head of germany's christian democratic block is expected to promise his support for the country and its efforts to repel russia's invasion. this is what sleep like mounts at a set of eyes is the same for the name of my trip is to learn more about the current state of this country's defenses. i'm very much looking forward to meeting present. and so lensky again, been over the course of a day, and i simply want to find out about the situation in ukraine. and what we can do to help this beleaguered country continue to defend itself against russian aggression with logic. now to south korea and the justice ministry there says a travel band has been imposed on president unit. so your, he's under investigation after declaring martial law last week, which was quickly reversed. you in survives and impeachment, vote in parliament on saturday. but the opposition says, we'll submit a new impeachment motion against him this week. protests those in south korea losing patience with the president. they want him to resign. peace, a vibe, and between bid and good faith another. so for now, he remains

that is the he is the leader of the christian democrats federalists. that's the man trying to take the chon solution from pull it off shots, but no policy. political points being made by any of those people in this city because for them it's about expressing solidarity grief. understanding for the plights of those who were cool south in this incident. but one interesting element that's being reported by certain german use media is that the interior minister here, that's nancy phase a. she was c o 2 saying that the individual, the suspect that is, was currently is lumber phobic. that's what she says in so far as how this will play into the election. well, let's be clear. prior to this, earlier this week, the week just gone, preachers mount set in parliament, his christian democrats were going to make germany secure. again. all those comments now say kind of different context, i'd say in the life of the incident here in this markets round standing where the police saw that matches with cars that killed so many people was driven. it drove up this, this st

from nato and the 1st place, christian democrats are demanding that nato be better respected, so too highly contracting or abuse. and only one of them is going to come out on top in the election set for the end of february. a recap of our breaking news from moscow brushes, nuclear, biological and chemical defense forces, chief lieutenant general ego or colored law. along with his assistant major leah, polly caught a post helping us us and they said it occurred and around 6 am this tuesday morning . i had signed an apartment building in the sites east of the capital, an i e. d, packed with the equivalent of 200 grams of t n t was remotely designated taking the 2 lives according to investigators. the mixture of palm was reportedly attached to the electronics booter that was parked outside. western and ukrainian media are now reporting a t of security services b s b u of claims responsibility for the attack. the russian investigative committee has called the dedlock, lost an active char. your true loss was a well known figure for reporting a new trinity and by law son investigating clai

right. establishment christian democrats. if current poles hold basically says good rents. the heads of state and government of the european union are speaking out publicly. the german government is there is no other way to put it a total failure in brussels. unfortunately, it has to be said. the majority of european heads of state and government are simply fed up with meeting the german chancellor to weather sits in silence for hours or lectures the world. but there is another possibility with this and on confidence votes schultz could end up being forced to stay put, or maybe even having to resign. that's what could happen if the right wing anti establishment alternative for germany or a f d party votes in support of schultz, along with his social democrats by the a f d model to do that. well, because some of them, as already said that they think murtz could be even more of a disaster than sholtes. he's already promised hand over the tires missiles for example, and to even better coordinate with washington and brussels on ukraine because i guess that's worked out super we

recent poll in bills and according to that survey, she's up for points on friedrich mertz, the christian democratic establishment. right opposition leader and nearly 10 points up on shots. popularity. that isn't exactly surprising though, considering the convergence of so many positions between the anti stablish thing right and left to seem to be increasingly resonating with voters, particularly against the search and really not a global as positions of the establishment. they present themselves as chancellors of peace, and yet they support the largest rearmament program, them in the history of the alliance. you have fallen too often, mister schultz, for us to trust that your word on torres will still hold after the election. mister mertz has recently developed a memory gaps and can suddenly no longer remember his torres ultimatum. here in the bundles, talk to chancellor candidates with memory loss. that's how well germany is armed by the next has also suggested that shows was a vassal chancellor, which jives with what bible was saying recently that germany has become basically a vassal of washingt

all of this came about because his finance minister, christian living or from that centrist free democratic party, decided back in november that he really wasn't interested in a career as a magician attempting to work a budget miracles with schultz is spending priorities. germany virtue signal itself right into economic devastation. following along with you sanctions to impress their girlfriend zalinski. then schultz tells us finance minister. hey man, just missed your foot up off the debt break of it. so i can go on another 15000000000 euro spending joy ride for ukraine, and lender was like, i know how, but if you just desktop, some of those long range towers, massages you have over there in the closet and give those to your girlfriend instead. and schultz doesn't want to do that because it would mean babysitting here . so it didn't start a 3rd world war against russia. so schultz and lynn are had a falling out over a month ago. now they're ultimately led to a breakup with lender and his yellow light center walking away from schultz has coalition table like a teenage clique in the school.

coalition government here in germany, but also of the main office vision party, the city of the christian democrats. and there is a sense of urgency to get this reform approved because there is this feeling that it has to happen quickly before the elections that are coming up in february, especially looking at the far right a if the a party that is currently pulling in 2nd position and who could become increasingly relevant within the party. and that is why the other parties wants to shore up the constitutional court and make sure that the changes to its structure and the way it functions and the way it is elected or kept that bay. and especially in a country like germany that has a specific sensitivity to also retiree and ism and possible moves toward authority are also are it's harry and is and because of its past. and how is the sri i asked a how they were reacting to these proposals? of the party is against this reform. we've heard some from some party members who have said that the reform is actually a threatening the rights of the oppositions. but it is hard even for the sd itself, a far righ

he's the head of jeremy's christian democratic block, is expected to promise his support for the country and his efforts to repel russia's full scale invasion of using a spring in our chief political editor. and we say it, i prove not mikaela. what does the least math want to achieve in keith? well, 1st of all, he wants to demonstrate that he is where the price of points in europe is politically. math is not unlikely to become the next ton. so here in germany is the current polling is anything to go by because his conservative cd you policy is by far in the lead. according to the latest polls round about upwards assessing percent, where as well as sold the current time. so this policy is around about $1415.00 percentage points. so clearly smith is trying to come across as exactly that, the potential next tons, the anti comes with a message as he says that ukraine needs to be able to defend itself. he's come quite away from just a couple of months ago, arguing that he would want to see germany's towers cruise missile system, immediate need delivered to ukraine and build them is it landsca

i moved out to a christian democratic party, a neighboring level. so me do, let's say easiest and use siri and authorities want to rule. they have to protect religious positions are one of the oldest communities in the, in the middle east. and in this then they faced harassment of all over the past all over history. and this let them be a really, it is indian and really attached to the land. no one can remove the christians from this land. and now there is a just for the new opportunity to preserve and protect the christian interior of the city and people and the city and people is known by, by the respect is known by a, by the diverse city and the co existence together. they are living and go is go existence regardless of their religion. so now it's a really, that's for the new or 32 and they can affect the christians and please of the city and community actually as an estimate in color or damaging the 3 building. the 3 is not so that the need for the christians. that's so that's ending, i think that the city and people i should have the ending of

so the 2nd place a f, d is demanding more respect for germany from nato and the 1st place christian democrats are demanding that nato be better respected so to hardly contracting or abuse. and only one of them is going to come out on top in the election set for the end of february. all right, before we go, a brief recap of the breaking news. we're following from here in moscow where russia's head of radiation, chemical and biological defenses, lieutenant general ega cara love, and his assistant had been killed in an explosion of inside an apartment building. a criminal case has been opened and the russian investigative committee is investigating the deadly blast as a tear act. according to law enforcement agencies, an explosive device was placed in a scooter park near the building entrance and was detonated remotely. eager carroll, i've had become a well known figure for reporting on ukrainian bio labs and chemical weapons incidents in syria or do stay with us here on our t international. we're going to take a short break and i'll have much more on the story and all the days news in about hal

that is a christian democratic party in neighboring lab on good to see you on to me. how would you describe what christians and other minority groups have been facing since to hobbies, to power in syria, or hello everyone at all for all the audiences. thank you all over the world. i actually uh, cushions are um, one of the oldest communities in the, in the middle east and in this then uh, they faced harassment uh all over the past. oh, those are history and this let them be uh, really resilient and really attached to the land. no one can now remove the christians from this land and, and now there is a test for the new opportunity to preserve and protect the christian and celia a disability and people a, the city and people is known by, by that a spec is known by a by the diversity and the co existence together, they are living and go is co existence regardless of the religion. so now it's a really test for the new authorities. they can affect the christians and please of the city and community. well, what do is to miss who are link to the, the new power in survey than

so the dish maps from the conservative christian democrats pul expressing that har. what happened? the pond, all of it is an election campaign combination 2 months from now and february, the 23rd for security and migration for be a key issue. dominant came out to 0. i'm active on the sorry is new data with all shaw has convened to meet single infections of the old position. as a new administration begins to rebuild the ministry force, the groups met in damascus on site today to consult on how all factions can be represented under one on a. 2 major appointments have been made within the new government, but half of the customer has been named defense minister. meanwhile i saw her son i'll she bonnie has been chosen as foreign minister of more on this for us to set out joins us live now from damascus. so what more can you tell us than about the new appointments under new leaderships plans for city of the be today we have seen 2 major appointments. one of them was a for the ministry and the other one, the defense administered for them is, is extremely important. for the media integrati

of the country that people want security here, echoing to a such an extent, the view of the christian democrats, but clearly full of his playing at because of the general election in less than a week's time, a little and know that you'll be keeping an eye on that for us to dominate came the from the land, romania is outgoing presidents has designated the left his social democrat and also tell us who were forming a government top code had done all the previous presidential election officer a fall right. pro russian politician won the 1st round in november. it cited the evidence, russia led an interference campaign. the incumbent prime minister who won the parliamentary election in december will need to approve the dates for a new presidential election. johnny's comic has honda and nissan have a great to start talks about a possible merger movie said is a bit to catch up with chinese rivals and tesla. on the electric vehicles it could lead to the biggest domestic measure in japanese automotive history. mexico sentences pos for forms aimed at improving labor. rise for dr. is with dr. hailing platf

the friedrich mouse was once frozen after the christian democrats on the i'm going to napkin, but now at the head, he may be weeks from winning the general election with a clear break from mass codes, consensual politics, and a profoundly conservative message to the vices. believe me not to come for, for the end of us, we are presenting you with a program for domestic security one to make germany say for again, we no longer want to accept no go areas in our country. it's becoming the norm that they exist in that our police can properly investigate those areas. we will reinforce law and order in germany, enrollment. so now it's what matters is the economy and how to reverse the stagnation. he says, the social democrats have cost while the chancellor is now leading a can take a government. this message to voters is the only his policy can take care of them all i've chosen. so going to hit the ground running with the slogan after this associated watch list for you best if the drum unit, the problem is most opinion pulse of the most show you as soon as possible will make the lives. but on

one of the parties had done the leader of the christian democrats. fried rice mounts, laid into olaf shots, basically saying that he felt the shots had wasted. the 3 is chop. so that's the stagnating economy. was the fault of shots saying, where is your reference to the competitiveness of our economy? so lots of issues to talk through in the selection campaign. migration is also a big issue with the full of the side regime. some parties know, typically the far right updates saying they would like to see many refugees sent back. what we know is that the time table is clear, february, the 23rd will be election day between now and then. well, the amount of fresh, those will be published, policies putting at what they say, the policies they think will be popular with the votes this. but at the end, the decision is for the vices on february 23rd. the one that came houses, era fairly, the ukranian navy is reporting that russia has withdrawn it's black sea fleet and deployed it to the sea of us, of ukraine's navy has sunk or destroyed at least a quote or if the russian fleet since the war b

here, of course on the sides of it will have shots for the dish man, us from the conservative christian democrats pul, expressing that horror, what happened? the pond, all of it is an election campaign. come a nice thing, 2 months from now and february, the 23rd for security and migration for be a key issue. dominic came out to 0 from active on the serious new administration is taking shape with the appointment of a foreign minister. the government led by hi terry ross. sean has named us side house on our shabani as its top different that he has experience dealing with international aid organizations in the bay area leader. i'm and i'll show rise working on building new relationships with world powers after the collapse of bashar assad, 3 sheets from on this fed springing results, the guy who's lived for us from damascus for. so an appointment that comes a day after a series new to met with us officials in damascus. what more can you tell us about the new ford, mr. and the new leaderships planned for siri? a. cindy, it's so the new 4 minutes there was a young digger then he was born in the northe

as in front of the christian democrats, us, the conservative policy which is presided over by a man free jewish mounts. who is one of the great stay as it was of politics that went about. so he just says he one percent 2nd place is the if day that's the alternative for germany far right? empty immigrant policy, which is trying to get to 20 percent, which if it were to do that so that would be its best results, have a and then underneath that you have jockeying for position amongst the 2 other policies in this coalition. the greens and the social democrats, the interesting thing here is that what effect might the christmas markets attack impact of bulk have on the way that people perceive the campaign issues. we have these many weeks now until those same day that will be debates between the leaders that will be, god knows how many different riley's with folks who opportunities for the politicians at markets of the riley's demonstrations. that kind of thing. the question for votes is, is who do they trust and the economy is a main issue. we know that the conservatives have said that they w

but for this maps, the leader of the conservative as the christian democrats in the federal parliament while he was here too. and remember, in the course of the week that's just going by in parliament, he referred to his policy is the one that wants to restore the safety and security to this country will lose remarks on after all, as a different lights on them. now is because of what has happened here. it's worth remembering that this man who has been referred to, i mean that for the suspects has been referred to by the interior minister and see phase as being is a lot of phobic with someone who online has been retreating, re posting, praising the posts of the alternative for germany, call to the f day, the far right policy in this country. so there's no question migration and security is a big issue in this selection campaign. what's happened to you will make it even bigger . dominic, thank you very much for that domini came live for as a matter back. as the serious new administration is taking shape with the appointment of a foreign minister. the government led by hi, i terry alshaun

well, the talk was main arrival. christian democratic union leader friedrich months has responded by blaming the government for all the nation's troubles. sounds neither politician is guessing support from the alternative to jeremy policy as well. that's all it's a stale lof schultz has been the worst chancellor. the federal republic has ever had germany is in the deepest, most severe economic, financial energy and migrant crisis. our parliament faction has just discussed this, even though there wasn't much to discuss. we won't support sholtes and the confidence vote, except for 3 persons worried free drink merits might become a war chancellor, showing that it was a big view of cars from inside. they have the money to go to road for funds to keep them out this out because it also is in one situation or do a lot against the tribes and to take the risk to get the amounts as it makes the trans up. that wasn't making a discussion, but i think because they have done the all right. some of our function has the most it for us was i know most of them wanted to against was because the sides o

have been here, of course on saturday will have shots for the dish maps from the conservative christian democrats pul, expressing that horror. what happened? the kind all of it is an election campaign coming icing 2 months from now in february, the 23rd for security and migration for be a key issue. dominic came out as 0. i'm active on the now we're getting reports. these really all me is coming up more attacks when the bed a functioning come out at one hospital, besieged northern gauze. but this comes all submitted to ordered people near the facility and inside the hospital to forcibly evacuate park opposite m, as in their opposite uh, in central goes and joins us on the phone. that's how right come, what more can you tell us as well, the situation is really keeping up in the notes right now. in fact, well, be direct sales come out of the hospital, recent release of you, you just during the past couple of hours describing an unprecedented attack by the 20 minute treat on come on at one hospital, he reported that he's been admitted tree has opened fire on critical areas, including the intensive c

so the parties that have been in the government coalition and the main opposition party, the christian democrats, there is really this urgency to wants to get this done to get these measures approved. today the i've been trying to work on these measures to gather for the last few months because there is a sense that a, with elections now coming on close with the elections move forward, especially now to february instead of september of next, next year. there is a concrete danger that some parties and specifically, obviously a fluoride, a sd party, could a threaten the independence and of, of the constitutional court. and we've seen these parties actually coming together of the former members of the government coalition and the opposition to the cd. you coming together to try to work on, on this reform. and this is something we haven't seen very often, especially since the collapse of the government to this is one of the few measures that of the opposition has agreed to work together with that former coalition government. and the just tell us more about just the constitutional court itself and wh

we spoke to the head of the youth and students office for the motor on the movement, upset christian democratic party and neighboring level until they do mit saves. if the new server and authorities want to rule and they have to show up and protect religious positions, are one of the oldest communities in the, in the middle east. and in this then they faced harassment of all over the past all over history. and this, let them be a really resilient and really attached to the land. no one can remove the christians from this land. and now there is a test for the new opportunity to preserve and protect the christian and syria and uh, the city and people. and the city and people is known by, by that respect, is known by a, by the diversity and the co existence together. they are living and go is go existence regardless of their lives. and so now it's a really, that's for the new opportunities and they can affect the christians and please of the city and community actually a selected needing color or damaging that the building. the 3 is not set up in the kitchens. so, so that's ending, i think that th

the leader of the christian democrats really trying to, to as well put the knife in and saying that he felt the shots had wasted 3 as a government in office, as johnson a good, the, the young of germany, a having some bad the costs of the errors of his government and saying that there was no mention of the competitiveness of the german economy in the woods of shots. so they were already pushing out as it were, the posse line, what they want to campaign on. thank you so much, dominic, that's dominant cane reporting from building. let's see, a cranium. navy is reporting that russia has withdrawn, it's black, safely and deployed it to the sea of us, of since the beginning of the war, ukraine's navy has sunk or destroyed, at least the cost with the russian fleas targeted to tax by ukraine have killed a large number of the fleets commodities in november, a russian combined to in charge of the missile batteries for the fleet was assassinated and eastern ukraine. russian forces are advancing on several fronts. prussian forces all within one and a half kilometers of the town of bulk, roast a v

so the 2nd place a f, d is demanding more respect for germany from nato and the 1st place christian democrats are demanding that nato be better respected, so to haile contracting more abuse. and only one of them is going to come out on top in the election set for the end of february of the kid has got a recap of our breaking news from moscow. rushes and you can are biological and chemical defense forces. chief, the tenant general igor cutoff, along with his assistant major elliot poly comp, posts have been assassinated. it occurred at around 6 am this tuesday morning, outside of the apartment building and the sites east of the capital. and i talked with the equivalent of 200 crumbs of t n. t was remotely decimated taking the 2 lives according to investigators and mix shift palm was reportedly attached to an electric scooter that was parked outside. western new printing and media are now reporting that key of security services. the s p u obtain responsibility for the attack. the russian investigative committee has called the deadly bloss an act of terror and your career.

right. establishment christian democrats. but right now, why don't you just heard there is the most personally popular figure in the race for chancellor. that's according to a recent build pool, but it's already looking like stein meyer is limbering up to task democracy right under the digital bus. if he doesn't like the results of the selection and then just cry that social media cat fishy voters, with glamor filters to make the anti establishment opposition look hot or something or t country to rachel marston taking us through all the bod. rachel, thank you very much. well, we also spoke with a f t party member on former european union, parliamentary and the printer back. he called president stein myers comments about possible external influence in the upcoming election, a trend sparren's attempt to smear the countries opposition as the week of germany becomes economically and a military day at the grand, that delusions of adequacy and delusions of grand. yeah, of the juices that whenever the elections in germany, the gover

thing is that they have to signal to voters that if, for example, they vote for the to do the christian democrats. so that's the conservative cl conservatives, right? so that it wouldn't be a possibility and that in the end they would have a coalition with the f d. so we'll just have to be sure that their words wouldn't be used by this kind of coalition. that's one thing. and also am and germany, the, the f d is viewed as a very, very different party from all the auto state, the strategy, the program, the things they, they say the people and they present as the lead important politicians. and that they are part of very, very different spectrum and then all the, all the apologies. yeah. so essentially the other party saying this party is too far to the right. we need to keep it out because that could be dangerous, particularly given japanese history, as of course, the country that that was ruled by the nazis and, and adult. hitler. ok, so some of that background we're going to touch on the elements of that later. but let's start looking in detail about the positioning and the selection of and why
