the state premier of saxony gave a statement anyway let's listen to what he had to say. i don't like the basic tone we are currently talking a lot about spending money and i think politics is not about spending as much money as possible but about making financial leeway possible for future generations investing in the future and this must now come more into focus. we have a situation in germany that is better than ever before. we have economic growth. we have very low unemployment we have almost zero percent interest. the government shouldn't be focusing on redistributing wealth. we have to remember that money needs to be earned before it can be spent. that's why creating more bureaucracy for companies isn't the right path. so michelle are not necessarily the most positive commentary on these talks what do you think this tells us about the atmosphere. well it shows us that the christian democrats in particular mr kurtz who presides over the government in saxony which is really embroiled is having a very tough time time. fighting the alternative for germany on the right s

in twelve sixty eight the first sister sions came here from the mother abbey in saxony and set up the noid cell a monastery the complex belonged to saxony for centuries at its heart is the abbey church it was extended during the period when the clock tower on the west side and the high altar to the east were added. in eight hundred fifteen the territory on the order river was ceded to pressure two years later the monastery was secularized in its property went to the state. one man who has delved into the history of the monastery is the archivist of the diocese then free to play. for there are many records related to the founding of north setup but there is one written source it's not in the files but up in the church tower unfortunately you can't see it from here in the middle ages it was visible but now it's hidden by the baroque roof so i suggest we had up there were forced on this it's not good. so if it were before little rock. and. isn't with work home. we're now in the clock tower that was set in front of the medieval facade during the baroque period here this is the western wal

when you are with your father who was in the social democrat party took you to the lower saxony parliament. to be boring for another four year old not for you. long well it is because even pregnant it's hard this thing for miss piggy had a real impact on me as a minority within a minority as a religious minority and because of my nationality i understood quickly that what we had here was special freedom democracy the parliament. my father was passionate when he explained to me that this was where german laws were made and that people could express their opinion freely this had such an emotional impact on me. and mark very sickly want politicized year by two thousand and fourteen you to sign to to go to iraq to report about the use edis being massacres either so i asked or so but if. you gave up a permanent job at r.t. how to do this your first big decision was what was behind it and if you could talk . it was that universally the basic decision and it had little to do with nationality or background it was basically about the question am i living my life right. may sound a bit pretentious b

think of artists as rather extravagant in their manner but he's not a toll doesn't it was born in saxony but has declared the spot on lake to be his new home of choice when he sold dan a book also he also sold a large part of his collection to an american investment bank and it was time to move on his needs when dealing with he's not integrated sure but that's not a precondition that's the case with all celebrities. there are others who are port houses here we don't say you have to belong we want to leave him in peace after all he's supposed to be creating upgrade and that's why he came specially to bavaria i think some of. the bavarians aunts an inquisitive bunch of mercury here i was. bustling it's lives a reclusive life hidden behind fences and trainees you want to view the artist at work forgetting. i mistrust yeah so mark everything he does is quality was this is in trouble he now lives in a house he commissioned from a very good architect. a bonus. so the very air can take pleasure in the fact that one of germany's leading artists lives here but it was a long journey. in one thousa

was a painter from saxony that's important and he's not held in high regard his work borders on. basel it's only mentioned him in the title or and that at that was a done computer and was good looked at the picture itself is his own idea of himself i'd say but he said. that's an option that sort of is in new york in one thousand nine hundred ninety one a buyer paid the record price of more than a million dollars for look at this rishta only way to work it's precisely there were meant to carry paintings that still make top prices possible it's pictures can be found in all the major museums and collectors are still often. do you consider me he is of course an artist who never sticks to a cycle for very long but always quickly moves on to the next we'd often prefer him to stick a bit longer to a particular series simply because the demand is there for completed groups of works but this curiosity this desire to jump from one thing to the next that fascinates me too in that sense every visit his studio is a surprise because you never know what you're going to get to see but it's emerg

have come out in favor of launching coalition talks lower saxony has. and hamburg and brandenburg but three states but lynn saxony am house and two india have recommended voting no none of the other regional branches of the party have declared their preference the biggest question mark is north rhine-westphalia which is sending the highest number of delegates to the conference social democrats that are split on how to vote so those on the map the social democrats in north rhine-westphalia and hesson are calling on leaders from post certain conditions on medicals conservatives where they agree to launch these full talks is there a chance of that even happening let me just say those votes are not the decisions are not binding so every deli can can vote however they want so that's why we don't know at all what the outcome will be but the conditions let's talk about those say what they want changes in employment policies refugee policies and also health policies. conservatives have already said no more conditions but i think when it comes down to the pressu

leaders but narrowly with fifty two to fifty one votes social democrats and saxony on halter rejected a renewed grand coalition in berlin. but others in the party are trying to drum up support. it's. now that the f.t.p. has refused to go into government the left party the f.t. i don't want the s.p.d. to be the fourth party to deny its responsibility i don't think that will help us in the end but what would help the s.p.d. that's where opinions among party delegates and members diverge widely. maybe the s.p.d. is political responsibility now is to become the party it once was and not to grow weaker from election to election and lose its profile. we have to remember that numerically were the weaker of the two partners so in that sense it's tremendous what we can achieve in terms of issues and setting priorities. d.s.p. faces a quandary its youth wing in particular rejects a grand coalition and that means chairman is traveling through germany campaigning against a new grand coalition. because we want to get back to a real culture of debate among germany's parties because we don't want th

well you said you have very different views here i mean that was a very regional view saxony where the far right alternative for germany is very strong so we heard from a prime minister there that is trying to fight it out with the far right if he and that's in a sense a common struggle because the some of this is democrats and i'm going to mackerels see do you feel here but talk will definitely also be about money and about the bigger picture of how they want to set themselves up particularly on the issue of europe but domestically there are big differences in deeds so democrats would like to see a complete system change when it comes to central issues like health care for instance the christian democrats say that is simply not on the cards from the side ok health care a clear sticking point what are the other stumbling blocks the big stumbling blocks in this negotiation that could hold up from forming another government. well another one is migration when we're talking of thousands key issues like how many migrants could legally come here to join those already accepted. as asylum see

encounter was a good old fashioned local rivalry where bragging rights for a certain portion of lower saxony were on the line as hanover and volts squared off as the home side with a inform striker hannover went into the match with plenty of confidence but what sport were determined to spoil their rivals afternoon. handovers nicholas has been red hot lately and the home faithful were ready to see him take it to the ball sport defense and he got his chance when pearman straggler took a corner in the thirty fourth minutes i will try to head home but the ball deflected off victor or seaman's head and white of the net i had over also wasted other chances and both sport made them pay units molly firing a rocket from about thirty yards out one i get shot had so much firepower that phillips had no chance of stopping it. in the waning minutes had over pushed for the equaliser but could only send it crashing into the woodwork i could tell goalies forward unlucky after some pinball in the box and that's how it ended hanover wastes the opportunity to in school or to the european spots while both sport

granite is found in eastern bavaria and in saxony geological formations such as salt domes have grown over millions of years the layers of rock above are safety barriers that would prevent a release of the radioactive waste even if there were major changes to the surface . so much can happen in a million years there was a time when the alps grew by five millimeters a year so in theory a mountain range with a height of five thousand meters could grow up during that period all that could be a new ice age those are uncertainties we have to live with if we want to get our nuclear waste below ground. going to continue to hear i. will never have one hundred percent safety at a given time because our knowledge will progress but in my view there's no alternative to this route my worry is the longer we wait the more we run the risk that the politicians will find it less and less attractive to take responsible. other routes will seem increasingly attractive such as the one that for me is out of the question the cheap route namely disposing of this waste in a country other than germany in meetin
