A new era for his country at the opening of the communist Party Congress and beijing and in football by your car backfiring on all cylinders in the bundesliga under a new coach your contacts can they do the same in europe we will look ahead to their Champions League clash with celtic. Welcome to the Program Thanks for joining us here in germany an exploratory round of talks about forming a Coalition Government have begun three weeks after an inconclusive general election german chancellor Angela Merkel is seeking to forge an alliance with the greens on the business friendly f. T. Paid if successful todays talks about talks could lead to what is called a Jamaica Coalition the name is based on the colors associated with the partys meeting in berlin. Black yellow and green for now the colors of the jamaican flag are just hot air on the banks of the reverse body. But exploratory talks are under way chancellor merkels conservative c. D. U. In the c. S. U. First met with the business friendly f. T. P. Party and later with the greens the Jamaica Coalition would be an exotic combination that has never existed before at the National Level if negotiations failed new elections could be called. For france and will be professional about this we are aware of our responsibility we will be reasonable but until the actual negotiations have started its hard to predict what will happen we can devolve into a new open your vocals or even. Members of four potential Coalition Parties are now trying to find Common Ground on several divisive topics such as immigration they could become the most complex negotiations in decades. We talked about all the issues that are important for us the subject of immigration is important to both sides but for different reasons. To have perspective on friday the exploratory talks will continue with all four parties meeting at the same time it may be weeks before a final agreement is reached. Lets bring in now Thomas Sparrow who you can see is out on the streets of berlin he has been following these talks for us and he joins us now for his as always expert analysis thomas so we hear that both the free democrats and merkels conservatives appear to be happy with the results of their first meeting does that mean that theyve made some Real Progress here. Not necessarily in fact obviously they did say that the first talks had been constructive that they had been able to discuss a series of issues that both parties are interested in but that does not necessarily mean that they made Real Progress in fact the goal of this first meeting which took place right behind me here was to try and set the ground for negotiations that everyone involved already knows will take a long time in fact one of the participants in that first meeting said that if the distance between germany and jamaica is around eight thousand kilometers jamaica referring to the colors of the jamaican flag which also represent the colors of the parties involved here if that distance is eight thousand kilometers then what theyve achieved here today is only the first few meters so that just gives you an idea of how difficult it will be to try and find Common Ground. A lot of those meters are between party and also the green party that we know theyre currently talking the two of those parties together what are the likely pressure points between those. Well here you have here you have a big difference between the conservative bloc on the one hand and in particular. Sister party the c. S. U. Of both varia which tends to be a party on the right of the political spectrum and the environmentalist greens who tend to be on the left side of the political spectrum so obviously you can see that there are plenty of theres plenty of space between the two blocs their own areas for example our migration if were talking for example about the goal to reach two hundred thousand refugees per year or the possibility or not possibility of having family members reunited with refugees here in germany those are all issues where the c s u in particular and the greens do not see eye to eye but its not the only issues we have differences on climate differences on on europe so in particular the conversations between the greens and the conservative bloc will be very difficult and thats something that members here have already expressed publicly so a lot of work there still to be done as those talks are underway Thomas Sparrow with as always your expert analysis outside of where that meeting is taking place we thank you very much for your reporting thomas. And as the chancellors party looks for Common Ground after the election its poor showing in one region has already claimed a casualty one of the cd use case figures is stepping down saxony state premier stanislav telis says that his state needs new leadership to meet future challenges this after the far right pushed his party into second place in the eastern german state in last months general election it was an embarrassment for the city u. S. Saxony have long been a party stronghold. Chinas president xi jinping has declared a new era for his country and said that it is time for china to take center stage in the world at the first session of the communist Party Congress in beijing she also pledged to open his countrys economy further and pursue a policy of zero tolerance against corruption during the weeklong congress a new politburo to run china for the next five years well be selected. Its a meeting on the grandest of scales. Nearly twenty three hundred delegates representing the eighty nine million members of chinas communist party. And the focus of it all one man president xi jinping. She praised chinas achievements during his stewardship but he said the country must not stand still. China has made major breakthroughs in its Reform Campaign where now in high gear and full steam with deepening comprehensive reforms and resolutely removing all systematic problems these reforms have been carried out in an indepth them fundamental manner his speech may have been light on details but she promised to continue Economic Reforms fight corruption and open the door to more Foreign Investment as part of a new era of chinese development. She also set the tone for chinas role on the International Stage in the coming years. One focusing on Economic Development and environmental protection. But she also cautioned world powers against taking his warm words as a sign of weakness. China versus an independent Foreign Policy of peace and respects the rights of other countries to choose their own development road china will never pursued development at the expense of others interests and will never give up its legitimate rights and interests either no one should expect china to swallow anything that undermines its interests. She is widely seen as chinas most powerful leaders and smiles they dont but hes still trying to rally support for a new term in office and his message to these embley was clear stay the course and clear the way for a new era of prosperity.
