what we basically see if the centre—right liberal sdp is not willing to form a coalition with the greenshey have hardened their stance on asylu m they have hardened their stance on asylum and refugees and angela merkel is basically not willing to do that. she wants to include the greens so for now, it is very early days, we have to see if it will return to the negotiating table. i won't be surprised if that somehow happens. but one option could be a minority government between angela merkel and the greens but then again, that the problem that merkel‘s bavarian allies who also wa nt merkel‘s bavarian allies who also want a more right—wing refugee policy, might not be willing to do that so there is even the possibility that we will see merkel basically leaving german politics because her person makes it impossible to include a coalition. well, mexit is not something i have heard before. talk through what that would mean for the eurozone, going forward. without the strength and leadership of angela merkel. and also, the brexit negotiations.” don't think we should dramatise it. all in all, t

sdp i think surrounding this there are misunderstandings. but i learned from someone at doe that the reason that mutual aid or mutual assistance didn't kick in right away were that there weren't offers right away. i'm hearing there were six high priced. but that mutual aid is usually is based on the state being able to repay. and that since puerto rico was in bankruptcy, that there wasn't offers to do this. is that just wrong? >> senator, the six offers were from private companies. proposals. none of them are related to appa or mutual aid. private companies. >> okay. so i think that's might be part of this. that it wasn't the normal if minnesota gets hit, wisconsin and south dakota, north dakota are ready to go in there under normal mutual aid and to do it under the normal circumstance, but that the fact that you're in bankruptcy made these other -- all the normal, you know, utilities that come in worry that they weren't going to get paid. so that's perhaps why the offers you got were not the normal ones coming in. this past weekend, i met w

she has already stated she doesn't want to lead a minority government, and the main opposition sdp sayshare power with her cdu party. that leaves the prospect of a fresh election, as andrew plant reports. after 12 years of stability there is uncertainty in germany. at stake, angela merkel‘s place at the forefront of european politics. translation: resigning was never an option. i have always said i am ready to serve germany for another quarter years. this coalition failed in its negotiating talks but that does not mean i will forget the promise i made. negotiations to form a coalition government collapsed at the weekend. in theory that leaves three options. either mrs merkel restarts the talks or she opts to form a minority government. or, option three, germany's president calling a new general election. that has been called unwelcome and even destabilising, but it could end up as the only choice left and it could be the option that germany's voters prefer. translation: untilthe last second i thought we could get along and form a government. until the end i have believed in it did not

recriminations are already starting and this morning most german commentators seem to be blaming the liberal sdp the talks, for the breakdown —— fdp. if there is a backlash, angela merkel could be strengthened because often when things get rocky, either abroad or domestically, she is often seen as an anchor of stability so she could even emerge stronger from this. what is clear is that we will see a period of political instability in germany because none of the options going forward for the new government are good. we either have a minority government, fresh elections, and they would mean months before the next elections take place and this would lead her effectively in political limbo which could have a big impact on the german economy. damien, thank you. the former wimbledon singles championjana novotna has died of cancer at the age of 49. the czech tennis player won the championship in 1998, after losing five years earlier to steffi graf in a memorable match. ms novotna, who also had an outstanding doubles career, has been described by the women's tennis association as an inspiration. our spo

i'd like to see the political system in argentina very similar sdp i think it does look very similar to the early transition years and the three first presidents. with two party in the coalition and another party outside. it worked very well. and the provided stability and the provided all the tools necessary for a smooth transition as possible. in those years people tend to forget how unstable chile was in the early 90s and how uncertain the transition was. as commander in chief of the army. in the' 90s. another option for argentina in order to keep it in the neighborhood is that coalition doesn't continue in the future. and the parties the coalitions may or may not last. and then if we have a three party system, look a little bit like uruguay. the center is the traditional by party system. liberal and conservative. change with the emergence of the left. becoming viable electorally and having had now three consecutive presidents. this is a quite interesting because we know that when there's a change in political party in the political party system, there's a stability generally and

decision-making process will step anna: do we read anything into the collapse of the talks, the things that the sdp has objected to? requestsvery specific about the ability to not leave the european union. bob: correct. the longer-term european union strategy has been to have this inner courre in the eurozone and then around that, a ring of countries, such as sweden and denmark, that were not in the euro, but are strong members of the european union. that's the longer-term strategy and within that, within the eurozone, to have more fiscal consolidation because obviously, the big anomaly in the eurozone is we have monetary policy coordinated, one clear policy. we are moving, though i would argue too slowly towards a banking union and capital markets union, but there is still a lot of work to be done on the fiscal union. that is the next stage of the big european project. if we don't have a big, cohesive government in germany, that stalls the next phase of european integration. manus: the politics are fairly clear. there's a vote that needs to take place if she decides to go a certain road, but from
