a look at who stood out in a record-setting win over europe. good to have you you with us. well, u.s. president joe biden is starting a critical week with the future of his domestic agenda unclear. at stake are his $1 trillion infrastructure bill as well as his $3.5 trillion social welfare and climate control package. despite division in his own party, mr. biden remains optimistic about this week's negotiations. house speaker nancy pelosi had said she would call for a vote on the infrastructure bill later today. well now, she's acknowledging that might not happen. >> we will bring the bill for tomorrow for consideration. but, you know, i'm never bringing a bill to the floor that doesn't have the votes. >> the infrastructure bill includes spending for roads and bridges, high-speed internet, and public transit. it has bipartisan support. but progressive democrats want it tied to the much larger spending bill. moderate democrats join republicans in opposing the massive price tag. congress faces a thursday deadline to fund federal agencies. a democratic move to tie the government funding to a suspension of the debt limit faces republican opposition in the senate. well, democratic lawmakers admit there will have to be compromise to get these measures passed. >> you want me to be honest? i'll tell you it's going to be a week from hell. but the fact of the matter is failure is not an option. there is too much at stake. we need both of these bills. we're going to have to come together as -- as a caucus. we -- the d in democrats, d stands for deliver. we need both of these bills and we are going to have to figure out how to make that happen. >> both bills are part of president biden's vision for the united states. and i would say, almost all of the democrats share that vision. we're seeing the sausage making now -- um, we have to reach compromise. i have been in congress quite some time now, and i'm used to this fact. i don't get my way 100% of the time. we have to compromise and move forward for the good of the country, and i'm confident we'll do that. >> melanie reports on the sticking points that will have to be resolved for both measures to pass. >> reporter: well, we are gearing up for an intense and crucial week of legislating on capitol hill. speaker nancy pelosi announced that there will be a vote on the bipartisan infrastructure bill on thursday. that was a promise that she made to her moderate members. but the question is are there enough votes for that bill to pass? as of right now, progressives are saying they will not vote for the bipartisan infrastructure bill unless their work is complete on the massive economic package that democrats are trying to pass through the reconciliation process. the issue there is that bill, not going to be ready for a floor vote this week it looks like. that's because there are still a host of unresolved issues, from price tag to policy. and house democrats don't want to put a reconciliation bill on the floor that they know is ultimately going to be pared back in the senate. and so far, it looks like senator joe manchin and kyrsten sinema are in no rush to negotiate. so i think the trick here is for nancy pelosi to convince her progressives that they are making progress on the economic package. and at least two centrists have come out and said that they would support the 3.5 trillion package but there is still a lot of work to be done. and it remains to be seen how all this is going to play out on capitol hill. i'm melanie zonona, cnn capitol hill. >> ron brownstein is a cnn senior political analyst, and joins me now from los angeles. he is also a senior editor at the atlantic. good to have you with us, as always. >> thanks, rosemary. >> so, given all the infighting within the democratic party. with progressives refusing to vote for president biden's infrastructure bill without his sweeping $3.5 trillion economic plan that moderates won't support, what's likely to happen during this critical week do you think? >> i don't think anybody knows for sure. i mean, i think the assumption has been -- i have certainly been in this camp -- who believe that at the end of the day, democrats have to and will find a way to overcome their differences because there is no faction in the party that benefits if the whole thing collapses. both in terms -- they all have policy priorities that are included in one or the other of these giant bills. the infrastructure bill and then the broader public investment and -- and social safety net bill. and also, they all stand to be exposed to more risk, politically, if this goes down and biden's approval rating tumbles even further. so my assumption has been that they always find a way, in the end, do this. and you wouldn't bet against nancy pelosi based on her track record. boy, they are taking it down to the wire. >> right. and of course, you -- as she's always said, she won't bring a bill forward unless she's got the votes and she doesn't think she has for infrastructure. so you are feeling that there will be all this venting but eventually they will come onto this -- the same page because i mean, presidents -- president biden's agenda is really struggling to survive right now, isn't it? >> right. i mean, look. i mean, there is -- there is an ahistoric degree of difficulty here. i mean, the -- the reconciliation bill, in particular, the 3.5 trillion even after it's scaled back, that has been described as the great society in a single bill. it does everything from universal pre-k to free community college to expanded medicare to a new child tax credit to historic, massive investments in green energy and paid family leave. i mean, you know, it is an agenda in a single bill. well, when lyndon johnson passed that great society, in fact, in the 1965 congress, he had, i believe, 68 democratic senators and 150-seat democratic majority in the house. now, they can only lose, what, four votes in the house and they are at 50-50 in the senate. so, they are trying to make historic change on a very slender majority. and that is very difficult. but the assumption, i think, has been that if you -- you know, if -- if -- if logic prevails, it is still in the interest of each faction of the party to find a way to move this forward than to allow it to collapse. but again, the -- the -- the pressure of doing all of this at once really has created a rubik's cube. and by the way, the reason that they have to do all of this at once is because the senate democrats will not confront the filibuster. that's the only reason all of this has to be in one bill because the reconciliation bill is the only chance that democrats have to pass their priorities and -- and -- and skirt around republican filibusters. so that is really added to the complexity here, as well. >> and, ron, how concerned should the country be about a possible government shutdown with republicans refusing to raise the debt ceiling and mitch mcconnell being very difficult in this situation and going against what he has said in the past? >> i think concerned. look, i mean, mitch mcconnell as he has done often before has created a new rule out of old cloth. remember, famously, in 2016, he said that the -- the supreme court justices should not be confirmed if the senate is held by the party opposite from the white house. well now, he is creating a new rule in which he has said that the debt ceiling should be raised and it should be raised only by the party that is in the majority, except -- and here's my catch -- we -- we, in the minority, should still preserve the right through the filibuster to stop you from doing it. democrats could take this threat away from him tomorrow by voting to exempt the debt ceiling from the filibuster but they are not doing that. and they're allowing him to gain this leverage. so, exactly how this comes out, again, the assumption has been that rational people will not let the u.s. default on its debts. that the business community, in the end, will lean on the republican community. republican -- excuse me -- caucus because the economic consequences could be so severe. but as on so many fronts, rosemary, you -- you are seeing the way in which the filibuster distorts decision-making at a moment of intense polarization in -- in our country. and -- and no one, i think, can predict exactly how that one is going to end, either. >> yeah. we will just have to watch very closely. ron brownstein, always a pr pleasure to get your analysis on all things political. appreciate it. >> thanks for having me. germany's left-leaning social democrats have scored a narrow victory over the conservative bloc of outgoing chancellor angela merkel. here are the preliminary results. the spd claiming the most seats in germany's federal parliament. but mrs. merkel will remain in office, for now. it will likely be some time before we know who will succeed her. a new governing coalition will need to be formed. a process that could take weeks, even months. cnn's frederik pleitgen joins us now, live, from berlin. great to see you, fred. it appears germany's social democratic party scored a narrow victory here. what is the latest on these results and, of course, what it all means? >> yep. yeah, certainly seems as though that is the case, rosemary. and i have to say, it was one of the most exciting elections that i've certainly seen here in germany in the past two decades. really, a very narrow one that for a very long time was also much too close to call. but now, as the results have come in, this -- the preliminary results, it certainly looks as though the social democrats appear to have a mandate to try and form a government. in fact, right now, we are waiting for the main candidate, olaf scholz, to give a short statement. and we believe that like yesterday night or last night, he is going to come and say that he believes that the germans want him to be the new chancellor of germany. but as you've said, um, the real tough work starts now. trying to form that coalition. one of the interesting things that we saw late-last night is that despite those massive losses that angela merkel's christian democratic bloc had, they still believe that they might be able to form a coalition. they came out last night and said, look, even if we are only the second-strongest party, we can still try and form that coalition but that certainly is something that is going to be quite difficult. um, also in light of the fact that the social democrats are ahead by about 1 -- 1.6 percentage points ahead of the conservative bloc. and that's still a pretty big margin. that's bigger a margin than angela merkel, for instance, had in 2005 when she first became chancellor. so, now, those negotiations are going to start. it could take quite a while for a new government to be formed so angela merkel is going to remain in office for that time. but certainly, and i saw angela merkel onstage also yesterday as -- as -- as their main candidate spoke. this really isn't the way that she would have wanted to leave the political stage here in germany. also, of course, the international stage that she was so big on with a result like this with the conservative bloc really facing some massive losses. and obviously, also, a massive loss of trust by the german electorate, as well, rosemary. >> yeah, that is critical. frederik pleitgen, great to have you with us, live, from berlin and great coverage, too, of the election. appreciate it. well, stefan cornelius is a german journalist and author of angela merkel, chancellor and her world. and he joins us now, live, from munich. thank you so much for being with us. >> happy to be with you. >> so, germany's left-leaning social democratic party celebrating what appears to be a very narrow victory. next, of course, comes these long, drawn-out coalition negotiations. what could this potentially mean for the country going forward? >> well, it means a long period of uncertainty. probably, um, vagueness on what content of the new government will be. it means a lot of uncertainty for germany's neighbors, mostly in the european union where major decisions are due in the european council. um, it's inconclusive, this result. i mean, even though merkel's party, the conservatives, have lost big. they now claim a right to form a coalition and there will be a continued fight now, continued battle between four central parties on who goes with whom to form that coalition, who gets what claims. they all have demands. they all have interests. so that'll take time to sort out. >> and so, why do you think angela merkel's party, the cdu, did so badly? was this a rebuke of merkel? and what she stood for? or was it rebuke of all of her party and replacement? >> well actually, if angela merkel would have stood again for re-election, she might have won this. but after 16 years in power, she for some very good reasons decided to step down. actually, the party's -- there's such a long stretch in government, you probably have to reinvigorate, you have to get new ideas, find new leadership figures. that's what the cdu hasn't done. the whole process of handing over power has gone pretty bad. actually, not just last months but even for past years. the -- the main candidate for presumed successor was weak. he was not really -- he was really keen on getting that kind of power. and there was an internal-party battle between the sister party in bavaria. so, a complex pattern of issues or problems which really, really accurse the party. >> our thanks to stefan cornelius for joining us. you are watching "cnn newsroom" of the. still to come this hour, deadly raids in the west bank. how both sides are reacting after israel said it acted to prevent a terror attack. plus, why russian mercenaries may be headed to mali as the prime minister says the country has reached a breaking point. the details, just ahead. hetics and blends from damage in the wash. like fading, stretching, and pilling. new woolite has evercare, a first ofof its kind formula that keeps today's fabrics looking like new. new woolite with evercare nyquil severe gives you powerful relief for your worst cold and flu symptoms, on sunday night and every night. nyquil severe. the nightime, sniffling, sneezing, coughing, aching, stuffy head, best sleep with a cold, medicine. feeling stressed in your skin?

>> well, rosemary, the idf says this is part of a major operation that was several days long but these raids that led to the deaths of five palestinians and two were arrested took place on saturday night. the youngest of those killed was a 16-year-old from the area. two israeli soldiers, israeli officials say, were critically injured. now, israel has long been concerned that hamas, who they believe these people were part of a cell that they say were about to plan and execute terror attack, hamas which controls the gaza strip is gaining a major foothold in the west bank which is controlled by the palestinian authority. but it's becoming more and more deeply unpopular for its part, hamas blamed the deaths and the arrests on the security cooperation between the palestinian authority and israeli officials. hamas in a statement calling on what they say the masses of our palestinian people in the valiant west bank to escalate the resistance against the occupier. palestinian authority president, mahmoud abbas, for his part calling it a crime, calling them field executions warning the continuation of this policy will lead to an explosion of the situation, and to more tension and instability. and that's really the concern here. an explosion of the situation. there has been a fragile cease-fire in place since that 11-day conflict in may between hamas militants in gaza and israel. and there's been this concern that any sort of spark could cause this conflict to really explode, once again. um, overnight, actually, there was even more violence in the west bank according to the israeli border police. several-dozen palestinians threw rocks and some reports of live ammunition at a group of 500 jewish worshippers who were going to joseph's tomb in the west bank. they were being escorted by a heavy presence of border police, two of whom israeli officials say were injured and we have no word yet on any palestinian casualties. i should also note, rosemary, that in just a few hours we are expecting to hear from the israeli prime minister, naftali bennett, who is expected to give a speech to the united nations. now, although we don't expect much of his speech to be focused on the israeli-palestinian conflict, he wants to instead focus on issues such as iran and the potential iranian nuclear deal. a lot of eyes here will be towards the south, towards gaza, to see -- to see how and if hamas will respond. rosemary. >> certainly, be monitoring all of this. cnn's hadas gold joining us live from jerusalem. many thanks. well, russia's foreign minister says mali plans to hire private-russian mercenaries to assist with security. mali's prime minister says the african country is at a breaking point. he spoke at the u.n. on the need for a new security strategy, citing rampant terrorism and criminal violence. cnn's david mackenzie joins me now, live, from johannesburg. so, david, what's going on with this and what does it signal? >> well, i think it confirms weeks of rumors that the notorious group, a mercenary group from russia, was doing a deal with the malian government, the military government there. and you had confirmed significantly by the foreign minister of russia saying that they would be doing this deal and it could be up to a thousand paramilitary in the country to help stabilize the region. here is sergey lavrov. >> translator: mali has approached russian private military companies. we have nothing to do with that. this is an activity which has been carried out on a legitimate basis. >> now, we have to take that with a pinch of salt. our reporting and others' reporting has shown that the group has deep ties to the kremlin and is kind of an unofficial military wing of russian foreign policy. they have been involved in mozambique. notoriously, in central african republic, as well as libya. and this is also, of course, of geopolitical implications. you had that very strident and usually direct speech by the prime minister of mali at the u.n. criticizing the french government for, in his words, abandoning the nation in their fight against islamic extremists and insurgents that control or have control over parts of the northern part of the country. but a couple of things worth remembering. the french have recently said they are looking to transition towards a multilateral force. they've had several-thousand troops in that region and they basically bailed out mali in 2012 after it looked like the entire country would be taken over the -- by these groups. you've had two coups in recent months. and there's a lot of distaste from the french and the european union about the lack of motivation, it seems, for the military rulers to transition to elections. and you've seen in recent months these closer ties developing with the russian government who are less queazy about the lack of a democratic transition there. and it means that the foothold of the russians in that part of the world could expand. all through this, you have this terrible violence and extremism that is affecting the civilian population of the sahel through mali, burkina faso, chad, and niger that is having a impact in that region and potentially much wider implications, rosemary. >> all right. david mackenzie bringing us the very latest on that story. many thanks. still to come, we will hear from the former-fda commissioner on when he thinks the delta variant surge will start to die down. and still ahead. how the uk is planning to tackle both its petrol shortage and sudden need for more truck drivers. real milk, just without the lactose. so you can enjoy it even if you're sensitive to dairy. so anyone who says lactaid isn't real milk is also saying mabel here isn't a real cow. and she really hates that.

talk to your doctor and say yess to linzess. hundreds of friends and family members of gabby petito gathered sunday to celebrate her life and her sense of adventure. a public memorial service was held in new york near the town where gabby grew up. long lines of people waited to get inside. it was one week ago that gabby's remains were found in a national forest in wyoming. her heartbroken father spoke at the memorial. >> the entire planet knows this woman's name now. and she's inspired a lot of women and a lot of men to do what's best for them, first. put yourself first. and do it now, while you have the time. i couldn't be more proud as a father. >> gabby petito's fiance, brian laundrie, still has not been found. police and the fbi are intensely searching for him. after a horrific summer surge, plagued, unvaccinated americans, the numbers of new cases and hospitalizations are, finally, falling. more than half of the u.s. is now fully vaccinated. but at the same time, we are back to an average of about 2,000 covid deaths a day. and in places like idaho, the virus is killing so many people, hospitals and funeral homes don't have enough space to store the bodies. but the former-fda chief predicts the delta surge could die down by thanksgiving. >> probably, by thanksgiving, i think that'll have run its course. you see very dense epidemics right now in the midwest and the pacific northwest became inflamed a little earlier than that. i think the big question mark is whether the northeast is going to see its own surge of infection. there's a presumption that because it has high vaccination rates and high-prior exposure from previous waves of infection that it's somewhat impervious to a big wave of infection. people who believe that the surge of delta that you saw in the summer really was the surge that you're going to see in the northeast. i am a little bit more skeptical. i think that you are still going to see a wave of infection sweep across the northeast as kids go back to school and they become sources of community spread and people return to work, the weather gets cold, and people move indoors but i think by thanksgiving, you will have seen this move its way through the country. >> dr. gottlieb also suggested that the u.s. could have a level of covid immunity at around 80% through a combination of vaccination and infection. and earlier, i spoke to dr. scott miscovich, a national consultant for covid testing and asked him if he agreed with the former-fda commissioner's analysis. >> i agree with him on all those points because, you know, we have zero-prevalence data across the united states. and what that means is people go in for a routine blood draw for, like, a pre-op test or just a regular cholesterol test and they will do serial surveillance to also see if there's any signs that someone had contracted covid. the numbers are all over the map where some states are upwards of 40% of those are positive. so, most of us believe that there is a significant percentage, well beyond what we see with our testing, of americans who are positive and will have immunity. so i fully believe we're, you know, well into the 80% right now. if we can throw the children, you know, where we get half of them or more, we're going to be pushing ourselves probably into the mid-80s, even closing on 90 if we get continuation of vaccinations. >> that is very encouraging. so, i did want to ask you this because new york governor kathy hochul is preparing for a potential medical staffing shortage because the statewide deadline for healthcare workers to get vaccinated with at least one dose has not been met. i mean, that's just in a few hours from now. so why do you think some health workers don't understand the science behind these covid vaccines? they've been trained in science. >> boy, i'll tell you. when i look at it, i -- it just -- just blows me away. and, you know, look at the nation -- the national data, though. we have 13% or so or even 15% depending on the state who basically are never going to get the vaccine. well, those people work in healthcare, also. and -- and there's something more when you're like myself and my teams out in the field whether it's giving vaccines, you know, there's some -- there's some misunderstandings have been perpetuated in the web. um, that we're never going to understand. and i do believe that, um, we're going to see this across the country as vaccine mandates go. there will have to be some hardline held that people will be losing their jobs. i mean, even in regular healthcare right now, if you accept medicare or medicaid within a certain period of time, all doctors' offices, nursing homes, et cetera, are going to face losing federal funding unless you have your staff vaccinated. so it's -- it's going to be a push but i -- i would have to say i believe we're going to get to a point, my prediction is, we're going to have mandatory vaccines just like we have mandatory school vaccines. >> yeah. seems to be the only way forward, doesn't it? dr. scott miscovich, thank you so much for talking with us, joining us from hawaii. appreciate it. >> thank you, rosemary. nice to see you, again. a shortage of truck drivers is driving a fuel crisis in the uk because you can't get fuel delivered without someone to drive the fuel truck. to solve the problem, the uk has suspended its competition laws on fuel companies and it's issuing temporary visas for foreign-truck drivers. nina dos santos joins me now, live, from london to explain. good to see you, nina. so, how is this going to work exactly? how will suspending competition laws help the petrol shortage? >> reporter: hi there, rosemary. well essentially, what it'll allow is fuel retailers like this one behind me in central london to talk to each other, to try and divert fuel supplies to empty petrol stations like this one. it's been empty, in fact, since friday. they got a delivery on saturday. that, very quickly, ran out. and now, they are just turning people away. it's a scene you are seeing right across the country with industry bodies saying that -- that in 50 and 80% of petrol pumps across the country are having some form of shortage either in reduced supply of various ranges and grades of fuel or, otherwise, just -- well, sort of completely dry. so that will help foreign business perspective to divert supplies to where they are needed but it's not going to address the underlying cause which as you pointed out was a shortage of highly specialized heavy goods vehicle drivers who are able to transport flammable material like this to places like this. and then, disgorge it themselves. there is about 100 to 120,000 truck drivers in the uk. that has been exacerbated by the coronavirus and also by tighter immigration rules thanks to brexit. and so, the government over the course of the weekend decided that it was going to try and temporarily loosen the visa restrictions to entice, hopefully, about 4,000 of these specialist drivers over from the european continent. whether they'll arrive in time to try and abate situations like these remains to be seen. but this is a big crisis across the country. as i was saying before, the government says that there's no national shortage of fuel. that's a message that's reiterated by the oil and gas companies, too. but it's a question of this supply crisis that is now manifesting itself in fuel but it has also been felt with fresh produce, as well. again, legacy of brexit. legacy of coronavirus. and also, labor conditions inside this industry that's being felt right across the uk. rosemary. >> and they have got a temporary solution here. but i mean, is this going to be a problem long-term because of the combination of brexit and covid? >> rosemary, if you just look at the numbers of those delivery and truck drivers as i said, they have to have a special license to drive heavy-goods vehicles across the uk. and then, you have to have specialist skills to try and disgorge and load flammable material and transport it safely in urban areas like this part of central london. and you have to do specialized training for that. but again, to get the licenses, there's a backlog with the dvla here, the authority that gives those licenses thanks to coronavirus. thanks to things like, um, working from home, industrial action, et cetera, et cetera. so, there's various issues along the way but if you look at the fact that this is an aging industry. the average age of a truck driver in the uk's been getting older and older because the conditions have been more difficult. the pay has not been great. it's been long days. they are about 55 years old, on average. and there is 2,000 people leaving this sector every single week. only 1,000 of them, being replaced. that gives you an idea of where the labor-crunch point is and how it's manifesting itself in goods like this. rosemary. >> they will need a long-term solution, for sure. nina dos santos joining us live from london, many thanks. well, u.s. transportation investigators are expected to give an update on the deadly train derailment in montana in the coming hours. federal authorities are trying to find out what caused eight cars of the amtrak empire builder train to derail on saturday. killing three people and hospitalizing seven others. montana's governor called it a heartbreaking event and said all passengers onboard the train had been accounted for. the railway released a statement of condolence on behalf of its ceo. and coming up. a landmark election is set to usher in a new era for europe's largest economy. we'll have a look at how germany's historic vote is impacting the markets. that's just ahead. my plaque psoriasis... ...the itching ...the burning. the stinging. my skin was no longer mine. my psoriatic arthritis, ma my joints stiff, swollen... painful. emerge tremfyant™. with tremfya®, adults with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis... ...can uncover clearer skin and improve symptoms at 16 weeks. tremfya® is the only medication of its kind also approved for adults with active psoriatic arthritis. serious allergic reactions may occur. tremfya® may increase your risk of infections and lower your ability to fight them. tell your doctor if you have an infection or symptoms or if you had a vaccine or plan to. tremfya®. emerge tremfyant™. janssen can help you explore cost support options. morikawa mor similar. were . pad that protects differently. with two rapiddry layers. for strong protection, that's always discreet. question your protection. try always discreet. air wick our essential mist transforms fragrance infused with natural essential oils into a mist. now with an extra boost of gentle fragrance to awaken your home. with scents inspired by nature. all to create an experience you can see... smell... and feel. it's air care redefined. air wick essential mist, connect to nature. well, the first official results are in from germany's pivotal federal election. they show the left-leaning social democratic party winning the most seats in germany's parliament. the party took a narrow lead over outgoing chancellor angela merkel's conservative bloc. but she will stay in office until a new governing coalition can be formed, and that process is likely to take weeks, even months. for more, cnn's anna stewart joins us live from london. anna, how is this narrow win of the social democratic party in germany playing on markets this morning? >> good morning, rosemary. well, i can tell you that there is positive reaction on european markets. we can bring you those now. they have been open for over half an hour now. all the major indices in the green and really, germany leading the way here up around 1% as you can see there. and that's actually not really a surprise because that actually what this result showed us was the biggest risk for investors going into the election which analysts warned me about last week was the risk of the left party being a part of any future coalition. that risk is pretty much completely off the table. then, we look at the potential coalitions. grand coalition of the main-two parties looks extremely unlikely which means you are looking at probably a three-way coalition. and there are two potential kingmakers here. both, the fdp and also the green party. and what's so interesting about them when we look at a market perspective is what they mean for businesses. their policies are really quite divergent. for instance, the green party. very ambitious. of course, when it comes to climate change. they would like to ban combustion engines by 2030. that would have a huge impact for the auto sector, given volkswagon have said they won't be fully electric until 2040, a decade later. you look at the ftp. they want to privatize rail. that would have a huge impact, a positive impact, for many in infrastructure and rail within germany, as well. but looking at all the sectors today, none's really higher than the other. they are all in the green and i think what you are seeing here is the expectation of compromise. the fact that we are going to have a three-way coalition. the fact that some of those more radical policies from those two junior parties are likely to get cancelled or balanced out. so that is the look. >> okay. >> and there could be plenty of market uncertainty as those coalition talks unfold. rosemary. >> anna stewart joining us from london. many thanks. well, switzerland has become one of the last countries in western europe to legalize same-sex marriage. more than 64% of voters approved the change in a referendum on sunday. opponents forced the nationwide vote after parliament voted to legalize same-sex marriage last year. the measure also gives married lesbian couples access to sperm banks, and allows same-sex couples to adopt children. >> translator: this is an historic day for switzerland. an historic day for equal rights for people of the same sex who love each other and a symbolic day for the whole lgbtq community. yes, it is a really, very important day. coming up here on "cnn newsroom." it was a dominant performance for team usa on the links. hear what they had to say after winning golf's ryder cup. back in just a moment. at usaa, we've been called too exclusive. because we only serve those who honorably served. all ranks, all branches, and their r families. are we still exclusiveve?

so just before the break, we were looking at the positive reaction on the markets to germany's election results. now, let's go to one of its neighbors because france and germany are, of course, the heavyweights in the eu and they don't always see eye to eye on key issues. now, the question is will president emmanuel macron see angela merkel's departure has a chance to become the de facto leader in europe? let's bring in cnn's jim bitterman to take a look at this. he joins us live from paris. so, jim, what is president macron's likely next move? >> well, i think for one thing, macron has cast himself from the very beginning as a president of europe from the 2017 election onward. on election eve, you remember, rosemary, he strolled on the stage to the strains of the ode to joy, the european anthem. so he's always kind of considered himself very much a committed european and he's worked in hand in glove with angela merkel all along here. the two of them have -- you're right -- they have not seen eye to eye on everything. but by the same token, she's been a great partner for him. and so, in this period while she's still in there, they'll be working together. the countries will be working together as they always have. although the real dynamism is supposed to be coming in the 1st of january when macron takes over -- when france takes over as -- with the presidency of the european council. and that's going to be a moment when it will be very helpful to have a -- a -- a solid german government onboard and one of the things that i think they are watching is the way this -- and attempts at cobbling together the government in germany are -- are going because it will have a bearing on what takes part -- takes shape in -- in terms of their leadership of the european union. one of the first reactions we got this morning from any french official was from the secretary of state for -- for european affairs and he said the results are close. quite certain -- i'm certain there's going to be coalition negotiations, no doubt a complicated coalition with three political powers negotiating over three months. so, it's -- it's the kind of thing they are watching to see how long this is going to take. clemente bowman also said earlier, he said you're never strong alone in europe. so clearly, the macron government realizes the importance of having good, strong negotiating partner with germany. >> jim bitterman joining us live from paris. many thanks. and these are live pictures right now of a volcano erupting in the canary islands. let's bring those up. officials warn that the volcano in la palma is getting even more dangerous, and experts predict lava explosions could last another three months. nearly 7,000 people have been evacuated. but residents are in limbo as flights remain cancelled for a second-straight day. and journalist al goodman joins us now, live, from madrid with more on this. al, what are you able to tell us? >> hi. the latest, rosemary, canary islands emergency authorities early this day just after midnight local time sent out a series of urgent tweets to the residents of the island. ordering people who live in four villages on the eastern shore of la palma to stay indoors. they are basically locked down and that's because the lava flow from the volcano now in its ninth-straight day of eruptions. the lava flow is just about one and a half kilometers or one mile from the ocean and when it hits the ocean authorities say there will be toxic gas fumes going out into that area and across the island and there could be also some -- some sort of explosions. they say the force of these explosions as it hits the water, plus what's going on with the volcano itself, the eruptions, that could shatter glass in your house windows in a radius of five kilometers or three miles. so people are on edge. again, this has been an up-and-down situation where there have been more intense eruptions and explosions, lesser, now, we're back to a more intense phase as you mentioned. the airplanes, again, flights cancelled by spain's airport operator saying flights in and out have been cancelled. um, they were on again, off again yesterday. they were cancelled on saturday. these -- more than 6,000 people evacuated are safe. the authorities are happy to report in the midst of all of this that there have been, so far, no reported injuries or deaths. all of this happening, rosemary, on la palma which is one of the smaller of spain's canary islands in the atlantic ocean off the northwest coast of morocco. the spaniards like to call it the east la bonita. the beautiful island. but clearly, with hundreds of homes destroyed and its valuable banana plantations, many of those destroyed, as well. it's a major provider of bananas to europe. the situation is quite serious. and in terms of if you were on the island and wanted to get off, basically the way out is a ferry boat, two and a half hour ride to the nearest island. rosemary. >> we appreciate you staying on top of this. journalist al goodman joining us live from madrid. the american golf team is celebrating an historic victory in the ryder cup. team usa thrashed europe 19-9 in wisconsin on sunday. the result was never really in doubt since the u.s. players had been so dominant in the first two days. cnn's sports patrick snell was at the course and has more. patrick. >> reporter: so the pain of paris three years ago is now officially over for this exciting and all conquering team usa. and the historic and record 19 points to 9 victory. and this party is just getting started. >> this is possibly way better than any other tournament that i have ever won in my entire life. just the group of people, the collective game of golf. it's -- it's so much bigger than just a singular tournament. it -- it's about people coming together and doing some special for the game of golf. >> this is amazing and to be part of, you know, a part of this group of amazing talented players and personalities has been a lot of fun. so i'm happy for captain stricks and happy to be part of this team. >> a lot of these guys have grown up with each other. it's -- it's a special group of kids. and um, yeah, it was -- it was fun to be a part of it all this week, especially here in wisconsin. >> i have only lost one other one. and it's -- it's -- it's painful. >> how much it hurts and how much you despise it and how much you can't wait for it to come around in two years' time to win it back. >> so for team europe, there is much to reflect upon and that is putting it mildly ahead of the next ryder cup in rome two years from now. while for team usa, it is, indeed, time to celebrate. it's the first time in almost four decades they can celebrate back-to-back ryder cup triumphs on home soil. at the ryder cup, i'm mpatrick snell, cnn. >> thanks for that, patrick. in the world of u.s. football, a history-making moment sunday as the baltimore ravens' justin tucker set an nfl record with a 66-yard game-winning field goal. >> announcer: on its way, it bounces off the crossbar and it's good! >> very exciting. baltimore had been trailing by a point with only three seconds left in the game when tucker kicked the field goal. it beat the previous record by two yards. how about that? well done. and thank you so much for your company. i'm rosemary church. have yourselves a wonderful day. "cnn newsroom" continues next with isa soares in london. you have always loved vicks vapors. and now you'll really love new vicks' vapostick. it goes on clear and dries quickly. no mess. just the soothing vicks' vapor for the whole family. introducing new vicks vapostick. a very warm welcome to our viewers joining us in the united states and right around the world. i'm esa soares on "cnn newsroom." >> the urge against si is important. >> the speaker has said she'll get the votes. >> a big week ahead. democratic divisions and partisan opposition could hurt his top spending priority. germany's social democratic party narrowly wins against ge
