germany. reporter: early morning in berlin hotel, the german foreign minister sigmar gabriel faced the task to smooth ruffled feathers with his turkish counterpart. the discussion was described as positive but tough. "we agree that neither side is interested in damaging german-turkish relations for the long-term, and that we can only overcome the current tensions if we engage in an objective and respectful dialogue with one another." instead of appearing together with gabriel, turkish foreign minister melvut cavusoglu visited berlin's idb tourism convention and stated his position that turkey views germany's policies and media as hostile. "we have to decide whether we want to continue this way as friends or whether we will break apart. we want to continue as friends, but germany must decide what they want, and then we will take steps accordingly. reporter: one day earlier, the turkish foreign minister had held a rally at the turkish consulate in hamburg for an upcoming referendum in turkey tha

germany needs the u.s. more than the u.s. needs germany, there's a lot germany has to offer. the german companies provide 700,000 employment opportunities for americans in the united states. she's going to remind the president about that. she's also going to be appealing to the united states president to try to remember germany is in a central place when it comes to defense for all of nato. donald trump and his lot of his top officials have been reminding germany and otherer u officials that they're not carrying their weight when it comes to defense, they're not spending enough money on the military and the u.s. is carrying 75% of the load when it comes to nato funding for different defense organizations. so she's going to be reminding donald trump that she should be able to, germany plays a major role both in trade and defense and has quite a lot to offer. >> matt bradley on the ground for us there in berlin, matt, thank you. jamie ruben state department spokesman under president bill clinton, he joins me now from. london. jamie, let me read the politico headline to your new

they're looking to germany and the success in germany. as a foundation.ou look again at the states they were able to win on the campaign trail, this is an issue that has bipartisan support. the new chairman is at the forefront of this as well. ifwill be interesting to see they can use countries like germany as a benchmark for that. there are such clear differences on trade and immigration. david: let me ask an uncomfortable question. you have served and democratic administrations. is it conceivable that donald trump could pick up something dropped by the democrats. i come from michigan. i come from flint. we did not do enough for the workers kicked out. this administration come in and fill that gap? bottom line is the democrats need to figure out how they lost a key component to what had historically been their base, working men and women there is no question there is a challenge there. people on both coasts, mainstream democrats and mainstream republicans perhaps celebrated the benefits of globalization and the technology revolution without focusing enou

and the reason why they do that is they realize they can't remove jews from germany as fast as germany's borders are expanding to contain more jews. and as a result, they realize they're chasing their own tail, and they begin to think of new solutions other than expulsion to their so-called jewish problem. >> host: were wealthy jewish people in germany able to get out early? >> guest: they were, and if they chose to get out early in '33, '34, they got out with more of their wealth than they would have later. the problem is that wealth tempted people the stay. people who had substantial assets, they were more reluctant to give them up. they somehow thought they were more important to germany's welfare that they wouldn't be attacked, and so the temptation was for some of the wealthiest german families, the warburgs, for instance, who were a big banking family, the temptation was to stay. and by 1938,' 39, it was too late. most of them got out with their lives but with nothing else. >> host: why was it too late at that point? >> guest: because the policy had become much more confiscating by

bulent: it started with the rest, and came to germany.oinda: anne renzenbrink, what degree is germany over a barrel here? first of all, the refugee deal that was mentioned earlier, germany and europe have a deal with turkey by which you are supposed to hold back the refugee flow. secondly, turkey is fighting the islamic state, and the german military uses a base in turkey. to what extent does that make it very difficult for germany to react more strongly? anne: it is something that we have been criticizing, the german rhetoric that was not strong enough or clear enough. to the it is linked massive interest germany has in turkey, but we should also stress it is not a one-sided dependency. there's also the european -- in terms of economic dependence with turkey y from germany of te european union, i think the german government could be stronger and clearer in their message, and not only focus on deniz yucel, who is important, but also on the remaining 150 journalists in jail. -- posesour title post the question, the end of freedom in erdoga

the made in germany machine is doing quite well right now. what can germany convince the u.s.its side of the things, why the u.s. needs germany from a trade perspective? >> well, germany's been a critical partner of the u.s. in europe, and chancellor merkel in particular has been a close partner of the last two presidents and working through a lot of the issues of the global economy. so, i would imagine she would want to talk to the president about how to make sure trade remains open between the u.s. and europe and to try to push president trump and has administration to take a more leadship role in the global economy. on the other side, this president is focused on the bilateral trade deficit with certain countries, including germany. and i imagine they'll want to talk about how important it is for germany to have more demand-led growth in germany and not rely solely on exports. >> how, ambassador shapiro, is germany likely to react to that? they have the third biggest trade deficit with the united states after china and japan, and that's something we know president trump is

germany is a part of that force. admittedly, they wanted to go and the part of afghanistan where there was the least amount of combat, which is typical of some of the other forces of europe with the exception of the brits, but nonetheless, they have stood by us in that war. that obviously was our war but also it touched nato. i think in going forward here, i think the obvious concern is radical islam and the middle east and how it emanates out of there, particularly isis and what it has done in terms of migration and the immigration issue throughout europe. certainly, chancellor merkel, who is probably one of the two most experienced world leaders that president trump will deal with in his term of office here, the other one certainly being vladimir putin, chancellor merkel has been in office for 12 years, grew up in east germany, speaks fluent russian and is a highly skilled politician who has survived many crisis, both political and economic in her country. i think of the council that she can provide to him in deali
