Tonight a crucial match for controversial coach peter bosch. Hello im terry martin good to have you with us germany has been thrust into Political Uncertainty talks to form a new Coalition Government collapsed late on saturday after four weeks of marathon negotiations the german president says he will meet with the leaders of all parties and press them to try once more to cut a deal meanwhile chancellor Angela Merkel is weighing her options she says shes ready to run for chancellor again in a new election if thats. The german chancellor would have gladly spared herself and germany from this walk of shame but after the collapse of Coalition Talks its up to the german president to decide the next step. Another dealing is a new government is always a difficult political. One involving struggle and disagreement but the task of forming a government is very important possibly the most important task that voters give their representatives within a democracy and this task remains. My up plans to meet up for talks with the various parties over the next few days my refuses to accept that they are incapable of fulfilling the voters mandate his message is also addressed to his own party the social democrats who are still insisting they will join the opposition after their poor showing in the elections. By expect everyone to be willing to participate in talks and make it possible to form a government in the foreseeable future. In those who hope to gain political responsibility in an election cannot shirk that responsibility when they have it in their hands. Were not going to pull our ministers out of the serving government so there is all the time in the world to find a solution thats what were offering our way of taking on responsibility. The far right after we are not concealing their glee in their Election Campaign they demanded that uncle americal step down now they see themselves one step closer to that. Were pleased that this coalition has failed that would have been a coalition that did not represent social change it would not have heralded the start of a different type of politics instead the coalition would have represented business as usual. But german voters dont understand why the four way talks failed they had a task and still were not capable of coming to a compromise that is a shame this is horrible these politicians cant agree the f. D. P. Announced their withdrawal from the negotiations saying it would mean too many compromises and would betray the promise of change theyve made to their voters. If the f. T. P. Had agreed to what was on paper it would have had to abandon its basic political position in this situation we saw it as our responsibility not to join the government but to ensure democratic diversity in our country is retained and reinvigorated but the greens believed they were on the verge of finding a compromise even on migration. These are compromised would have been a good thing for our country this irresponsible action is just reopening old wounds the idea one. Of chancellor Angela Merkel insists that even in this phase germany remains a stable country. Im not planning on a minority government but we will have to wait and see what happens in the next few days time the path to fresh elections is one way. But according to polls the results of new elections would find the c. D. U. Their sister party the c. S. U. And the s. P. D. With about the same number of votes as last time. Well for more on germanys political impasse and joined in studio here by suns bond our Political Correspondent morning hans mechelle said she would prefer fresh elections to leading trying to lead a minority government do you think a rerun of the election is likely yes it is likely obviously the german president who is in charge of this process now and has to decide when or how this is all going to happen has said that he is not in favor of that that he would prefer Political Parties that have a mandate now to actually implement that mandate but it seems very unlikely that there will be any change in the preparedness of the various parties to participate in Coalition Talks so fresh elections is the most likely outcome it seems no chance of michael c. D. U. Party won the last election they got the most votes but their performance really wasnt that strong do you think that chancellor merkel is betting that her party can perform better in fresh elections i dotted very much i mean the most recent polls show that theres not likely to be meant much change and one can assume that im going not only has access to polls that we know nothing about theyve always said to the christian democrats and various other parties involved in these talks that theyre not really interested in new elections that they want to form a government now but i think the situation just is the situation as it is they have to accept the way it has developed now and they have to accept that new elections are the likely outcome so obviously all parties will then find as as good as well as they can and try to do as well as they can but it was not the choice of angloamerican to go for fresh addiction what about the other parties that are also going to have to put themselves up for election again lets take the d. For example the far right a f t just entered the German Parliament for the first time could it maybe strengthen afresh lection strengthen the far right a. F. P. Thats one possible outcome indeed there might well be. An. He said this feeling of dissatisfaction within the german electorate which has already led to a quite spectacular success of the f. T. By entering this problem into double figures and with these Coalition Talks having failed theres a chance that voters will. Increase the protest and that would increase support for the f. T. There are those could also be the possibly be possible the market liberal free democrats have been moving towards the right into the spectrum that the f. T. Has also covered so they i think might actually be quite happy about new directions and hope to increase their. Their support at the expense of the fifty and theres a great deal of speculation about chancellor merkels future right now some say that her failure to cobble together a workable coalition this time around shows that shes used up all her Political Capital do you think her days are numbered well if you if you will answer that question honestly her days are numbered even if she gets reelected she was reelected knob but its clear that it will be her last term as chancellor but its not something thats happening you know immediately she is going to stand again as candidate for her party the party is likely to come out of new elections as the Strongest Party so its very likely that she will stay on this johnston so in the immediate future i think she will stay in charge and shes obviously status of that she wants that her party has that her party wants her to say as top candidate as leader of the party so its not something thats happening immediately. A future for the short term is assured and banned from our political desk thank you so much. As we all know germany plays a key role in europe and not just because of its economic prowess in recent years its gained a reputation as one of the European Unions most stable democracies so at a time when you it self is craving stability the current confusion in berlin is causing nervousness in brussels. Sports. Its one of those rainy days that brussels could have done without ministers now know that the e. U. s biggest member state germany is unlikely to have a stable government for the next few months slowing everything down from Foreign Policy to euro zone reform. So let me bring you up to speed what do you ministers make of the collapse of german chancellor Angela Merkels Coalition Talks for instance austria. I believe that the failed talks confront us with a very very difficult situation not just regarding germany but also the e. U. Germany has always been one of the key drivers of the european idea we are currently in a crucial phase to decide if we want further integration in the e. U. And if so how and germany place here a crucial role to the country that has the biggest concerns about the political crisis in germany is france a political expert told the french president my call has been waiting for support from berlin ever since presenting his ambitious e. U. Reform agenda after germanys election in september now everything is on hold obviously the french are not happy mccall is not happy. Marco knows how important merkel is for him which is why the first phone call that merkel received less than an hour after the talks failed was from Michael Floyd and stan believes a new election is now very likely in the e. U. There is however still hope the potential Coalition Parties could break their stalemate. Belgium was without government for eighteen months and the netherlands just finished the longest talks in history to form a government with four Political Parties i think pretty lections this is the path that we took seven months ago to have still think a little bit more than five to go to. That thing is to rethink your arguments and i may be that moment started talking again brussels is still hoping for a speedy solution in germany that would help clear up the e. U. Skies. Germanys Business Community is shocked by the failed Coalition Talks kristoff has more thats right terry after a long grueling weeks of preliminary talks many Business Leaders had hoped a compromise would be found giving europes largest economy a stable government it has long been known for now that the preliminary talks have collapsed a majority of germans is favoring fresh elections however many in the Business Community feel that efforts to form a new government should continue while it cannot be indicators remain strong confidence in germanys political system and its booming economy are reassuring to many who look at the current impasse but theres trouble ahead if uncertainty lingers businesses want to belittle investors need certainty and germany europes largest economy has a lot on its plate. As if he holds the economic challenges are humans get what does it mean for the e. U. Economy its in the for International Trade digitalisation education infrastructure payment for germanys Energy Transformation theres so much on the agenda and we need answers all too often. One answer thats feared by many economic stakeholders is new elections its a process that would lead to months of uncertainty new elections are so unattractive to german business that on monday representatives across germanys economy including the engineering and Chemical Industries and the export sector each publicly urged for a continuation of Coalition Talks. Theres concern also at the e. U. Level where ministers await action on several economic proposals including euro zone reforms a common finance minister and a common budget think french president a man well mccraw has a particular stake in a new German Government pledged his quest for a more economically integrated european economy hinges upon german support for. Its own human being number one without a partner is not good emma crawl has also been elected to revive a european project to push you a p. R. It was supposed to be a matter of weeks before mccraw had his german partner now the timing is anyones guess. And of course well have lots more coverage on the political crisis in germany throughout the day so keep it here on g. W. For now back to terry with more world news thanks christophe lets take a look at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today u. S.

Is the United States<\/a> biggest Telecommunications Company<\/a> time warner a major producer of media content allowing both companies to merge would mean a concentration of power detrimental to consumers the d. O. J. Argues however with president Donald Trumps<\/a> outspoken dislike for time warners news channel c. N. N. Some also see a political twist of the story. Plans by a. T. M. T. V. To purchase time warner one of the leading Media Companies<\/a> in the u. S. Were ready controversial when they were announced in two thousand and sixteen even before he became President Donald Trump<\/a> was already critical. A deal we will not approve in my administration because its too much concentration of power in the hands of too few like trump has called c. N. N. Which is owned by time warner fake news this is why plans by the department of justice to sue eighteen t. To stop its acquisition of time warner a controversial but c. E. O. Has said he will fight the u. S. Governments suit in court theres been a lot of reporting and speculation whether this is all about c. N. N. And frankly i dont know but nobody should be surprised at the question keeps coming up because weve witnessed such an abrupt change in the application of and i trust law here but the bottom line is that we cannot. And we will not be party to any agreement that would even give the perception of compromising the First Amendment<\/a> protections of the press so any agreement that results in us forfeiting control of c. N. N. Whether directly or indirectly is a nonstarter the us has not seen such a high profile antitrust case in decades already many are asking whether the lawsuit is about protecting consumers or political interference in Americas Press<\/a> freedoms. How do you sell a pencil should be so hard right after all theyre in demand from katmandu to kinshasa but with protectionist tendencies on the rise doing business around the globe has become more difficult lately and changing standards and regulations are increasingly taking its toll on one of germanys Oldest Companies<\/a> best known for its pencils crayons and Everything Else<\/a> you would find in a well organized desk. Compass is like this are often used for School Design<\/a> or technical applications the biggest components the arms are made from metal that contains lead for some countries thats a problem. Overnight south korea reclassified a compass from drawing a quick meant to a childs toy which isnt allowed to contain lead thats just one of the many measures countries have taken to restrict imports. A company like step which exports eighty percent of its products is directly affected by tactics like these. The economy enough to not really need to. Really tell if these are protectionist measures or if there are regulations like standards that are changed by the e. U. Or if theyre regulated from other countries sometimes its hard to tell when you know we try to react immediately to check overall materials and Manufacturing Processes<\/a> so we can adjust to these things that he will hold them for months of going to the heart of. The company was founded in one thousand thirty four and is now present in one hundred fifty countries. The sea is worried that the biggest market the u. S. Will continue to isolate itself along with other countries. We can really do something with copy the entire world map is a marketplace that. Were seeing that in almost every region the nontariff barriers to trade are increasingly. A rising calculation theres a changing to make imports more difficult its happening all over the world and imported. The same can be here of a divide. Business is getting tougher in the e. U. As well. This is a filament of lead in pencils is being lowered even though youd have to eat eighteen pencils a year to absorb the current limit. All appeals to regulators have been unsuccessful. Since. We have no other option but to adapt to the changing conditions its a bit complex gets complicated. Trade agreements get terminated sized really darrius things get turned over to individual countries which makes them more time consuming and expensive indigo and its and because untied. The company doesnt want to walk away from any market but the increasing demands and higher g. T. S. In certain regions make the products more expensive for the consumer. And they wont pay higher prices to start new products if domestic ones a significantly cheaper.

News im terry martin our top stories zimbabwes ruling party is set to begin impeachment proceedings against president Robert Mugabe<\/a> the motion accuses the ninety three year old of charges including allowing his wife grace to usurp constitutional power the embattled leaders refusal to quit following a military intervention has plunged the african nation into crisis. German chancellor Angela Merkel<\/a> says she would prefer pressure elections rather than ruling with a minority government thats after Coalition Talks<\/a> collapsed the countrys president will now try to persuade the potential Coalition Partners<\/a> to return to the negotiating table. So whats likely to happen next here in germany ill be putting that question to a political analyst in just a moment but first lets hear from incumbent german chancellor Angela Merkel<\/a>. I didnt plan for a minority government but we have to wait and see whats going to happen a new election is one possibility the pos towards a minority government is one that has to be very very carefully considered for a stable country and for a country that has a lot of work ahead of it i dont want to say that its impossible but im very skeptical about minority government and i believe a fresh election is the way to go the. Lets bring in for some analysis lets bring in Sara Brock Meyer<\/a> shes a political analyst at the Global Public<\/a> policy institute here in berlin and good morning sarah so uncle michael as we just heard there says she would prefer fresh elections to instead of trying to lead nor of the government what do you see happening it does seem like the most likely outcome in the next few months will be new elections the other options are the f. D. P. And the social democrats be considering joining a Government Coalition<\/a> with her or a minority government but sixty three percent of germans have said in a poll yesterday that they would prefer fresh elections as well ok so the german electorate wouldnt mind going back to the polls under these conditions it seems the situation were in though now has never happened in germany before why are we seeing this now is it simply the result of an inconclusive election in september or is there something is there a deeper problem and germanys political culture we do indeed see quite unprecedented situation but it was a quite a shift in the last election with the right wing turn to for germany the. Being elected into parliament for the first time this makes it harder for other go parties to find the majorities to govern basically but it might also with this kind of populism way make the other part is a bit more absolutist in their stance and with makes it harder for them to compromise and america has been giving a lot of interviews lets listen to what shes been having to say shes addressing speculation over her political future lets listen in. I was asked time and again during the Election Campaign<\/a> whether i was prepared to serve germany for a full. Two months of possums than so it would be very strange just because we have a situation where the f. D. P. Has decided to leave the talks to tell voters that everything i said during the campaign is no longer valid so yes i am ready to serve as a young. Chancellor merkel says she is ready to continue as chancellor you think thats going to happen can she count on that can she be confident it looks quite likely that thats going to happen for two reasons one she is theres basically no i turn it if in the city you are right now no clear other views are that they could replace her with and secondly germans really like her again yesterday a poll showed fifty eight percent of germans would be like her continuation. The german president. He has a role to play right now a very Important Role<\/a> he says he would not like to see fresh elections and hes going to be talking to the leaders of all the prospective Coalition Partners<\/a> to see if he can get them back to the negotiating table what do you think is going to be saying to them well its basically his job right now to precisely constitutionally remind them that they have the responsibility to form a government right now so thats what hes going to do today hes meeting the f. T. P. Liberals and he will tell them to go back to the negotiation table the same tomorrow with his own party the s. P. D. He will ask them to basically reconsider their strong stance and join a coalition with them going to merkel and youve already said that you do expect to see fresh elections but under these conditions why cant we have a government we had a successful election there are a couple of options for for putting together a Coalition Government<\/a>s one of the parties not willing. There might be a shift as i said earlier two parties being less likely to come from ais basically all of them expect that they might gain from future elections even though its very unclear how new elections will turn out well thats my blass question to you if we do have a rerun of the election whats going to happen we had an unprecedented number of parties coming into the German Parliament<\/a> as after the last election what can we expect next time around we will see if there are last nights polls show that none of the parties will actually shift a lot in their Percentage Points<\/a> so we might have precisely the same election and we will have also difficulties forming a new government but all depends on both to turn out as well sara thank you so much sara brookmyre from the Global Public<\/a> policy institute here in berlin and youre watching news still to come a big night for bruce you dont land in the Champions League<\/a> they face a threatening spurs side as they seek to arrest a desperate side slide in for. First though Amnesty International<\/a> has published the findings of a two year long investigation into the crackdown by myanmars military on the ethnic root hinge of people the findings are hard hitting with amnesty accusing authorities in myanmar of creating a system of apartheid which is classified as a crime against humanity the root hinge it had faced state sponsored discrimination for decades according to this report but this is worsened since two thousand and twelve when by list broke out between buddhists and the muslim. Today that violence has forced over six hundred thousand revenge or to flee to neighboring bangladesh and see international has now called for the Un Human Rights Council<\/a> to hold a special session on the richer crisis in myanmar. Well for more now lets cross over to bangkok where laura haith is a researcher with Amnesty International<\/a> is standing by laura your organization has just completed a two year investigation into the crisis in myanmars were kind state where out most of the ridge a live can you explain to us what is really driving this crisis and well thank you for having me and yes i think everyone weve had an. Experience of t. V. Screen or. As weve seen or if you just invited actually inject us that ok all right so you are kind say when i record showing states that actually there is a root cause to this life that is a system of institutionalized discrimination and segregation those are huge states meaning thats actually every single aspect is restricted and has been for at least the last five years and we continue to have to careful i think and you know this is this is a crime against humanity and specifically use the crackles not. Ok stay with us from what were going to take a look at the plight that many written git refugees are facing. These are the latest real hinge arrivals seeking safety at the richie g. Company coxs bazaar in bangladesh the campus run by the International Organization<\/a> for migration has seen a massive influx of rutin just since last august several hundred thousand are sheltering here and in the surrounding area violence and persecution in their home country of me and maher drove them here. Other busy much. And forced us to work as forced labor taking our Identity Cards<\/a> for most. They burned on our houses we kind of lived there we had to leave to come here that was what i had thought but i didnt know that. Back in may in mar the countrys leader sun suit she has expressed what appears to be support for the brutal crackdown and for that shes been heavily criticized brault the authorities and me and maher have accused the real hinge of terrorism and regard them as Illegal Immigrants<\/a> their hinge of crisis has also been overshadowing the mission of asian and european Foreign Ministers<\/a> in me and maurice capital night beetle one glimmer of hope china has proposed a three phase plan to end the violence starting with a ceasefire. The plan has won support of me and mine in bangladesh but that plan if implemented will take time to come into effect and as the negotiations go on the exodus of revenge a look set to continue. Now lets go back now to bangkok where laura hi with i understand it ashleigh is standing by for us laura defacto leader on songs that she shes been severely criticized for her handling of this crisis she appears at least to be supporting the army how does your Organization View<\/a> her role in this crisis. Well i think we have to be very clear that one things you see is not to be the tree when were looking at the traits its part of it is the truth sounds. Like she is failing in how political responsibility on this crisis but i think whats also really important to consider to bear in mind as well is actually this is not a new situation in many ways this this is a campaign thats an attempt to crimes against humanity but these crimes against humanity predate the current find when you look at the systematic discrimination and segregation interface it is points right its something that outs affects every single aspect that i went around to move around freely to Access Health<\/a> care so when were talking about what happens to range refugees im going to be trying to hard the question is what are they responding to i mean is this government its like to cheat committed to the scientific system or possibly things states ok so theres also so cheese role in all of this but other countries have an interest to european and asian Foreign Ministers<\/a> are meeting in myanmar this week do they have any leverage to help resolve this crisis they do and they have to use every single piece of leverage every single measure to stop this. Kinds. Ultimately of the many of the International Community<\/a> is not stepping up to the plate but there are condemnations but it is not resulting in actual its not results of change where we need to see is a very strong message to leave as you can join the next day now basically makes clear the crimes against humanity will go on and there will be consequences what about china its so thats the key player in the region and chinas proposed a plan to address the crisis in Rakhine State<\/a> is that the way forward. That i say is one of the poorest states and there is no doubt that development is very part of the solution well were concerned about is that Development Without<\/a> attracting root causes that is structural discrimination and segregation in your communities is only going to perpetuate the problem so what happens if you rebuild hospitals and rebuilt products that are actually going just on allow to use you cemented a system of apartheid fears that unless international dont step very clear red lines were going to see this Warning Systems<\/a> warning regime. Laura hi from Amnesty International<\/a> talking to us from bangkok thank you very much. Thank you. To cyprus now critics have accused the country of effectively selling citizenship to the mega rich and in particular to well off russians in a moment ill be talking to an Anti Corruption<\/a> campaigner who says the practice has helped fuel criminal activity but first lets take a look at how cyprus is generous citizenship scheme works. This policy on the republic of cyprus is from russia with love on the lawn of the president ial palace in nicosia the rich and powerful a showing off their influence an entire choir of monks flown in from moscow is making their Russian Community<\/a> here feel at home on this greek part of the island for years the numbers have been growing. On a study on the Greek Cypriot<\/a> president sits beside the Russian Ambassador<\/a> and expresses his appreciation. They have called to do so much to the growth about what it could mean to save especially after the crisis of two thousand and thirteen and it was the great support and trust to decide who should go to. About eight hundred fifty thousand people live on the greek part of cyprus a significant number of them are russian fifty thousand russian living here. We are glad to have such a nice evening most of the russians living on cyprus have cypriot citizenship which in turn makes them citizens of the European Union<\/a>. Most live in the city of lima sol on the Southern Coast<\/a> a simple Business Model<\/a> is behind the shop growth of the Russian Community<\/a> observers say whoever can invest two Million Euros<\/a> in a luxury piece of real estate on cyprus receives a passport from the country. Real Estate Agents<\/a> unabashedly advertise deals in lima sell this include gorgeous homes complete with cypriot citizenship after three years you sell your property and keep your passport. Human rights activist to doris Polly Company<\/a> who has been criticizing the sale of citizenship for years now only the countrys minister of the interior the government knows who gets it however polycarp who says hes heard of at least one russian with cypriot citizenship who is wanted by the u. S. Or serenitys we have a responsibility as a society to make sure that we dont offer the citizenship to people that they might use the citizenship. There to clean. This the journalist john issue one who writes a lot about these socalled golden visas he says that even though other European Countries<\/a> sell passports cypriot citizenship is by far the quickest to get you get one within two months and only forty percent of the investors actually live on the island they feel the majority is on the move i mean they just use the gold to resign a lot of the benefits that are getting from these. Many more ways of stay. Many use cypriot citizenship just to be able to live in the European Union<\/a> analysts say that these new citizens stay on the island for a short holiday until bureaucratic matters settled. The former legal office of the cypriot president anastasio is in lima still human rights activist plenty compass says this is where Many Russians<\/a> get legal help when they invest in real estate and an accompanying golden visa. One of the big growth he says was so pretty that directly by the president he was elected the now hes run with the same name but he stuck to his partners. And so it seems the russian cypriots can party on now to brussels and berlin of becoming more critical of russian investors in cyprus qualifying for the golden visa that puts president honest just on the offensive. They have to check down we need billions they have in their banks to we just coming from russia. Point taken still critics are demanding quick action and new laws to increase transparency about exactly who is being granted cypriot citizenship through real estate investment. For some insights into this dealings lets go down to vilnius in lithuania where nikita cough is standing by hes with the center for transparency and accountability thats an ngo that supports Anti Corruption<\/a> activities in russia thanks for joining us youve been looking into the practice of russian acquiring separate citizenship what sort of people are we talking about here. Well we we are looking i am im also intrigued with the Integration Foundation<\/a> in russia which is the major russian enjoy. So and we were looking into the. Nonspecific doing to the activities of russian in cyprus but we have seen some ciders connections from time to time when we investigate the high profile corruption in russia. As you said in your report. Most of those who most of the high profile corrupt officials for have some connections in cyprus do not leave there in case they in this case they only need cyprus says that the to transfer their money or to get the baskets cyprus is definitely not the primary just a nation for the corrupt money or criminal money where the people would like to state they use that isnt the is the intermediate point. How are they going to put this you know you see excuse me an indicator you know investing money is not illegal right are the russians were talking about here baiting taxes are they actually doing something illegal or are they simply investing their earnings abroad with the benefit of getting an e. U. Passport. Well they do both first of all you have the setting up we have seen hundreds of cyprus said was based companies who have. Subsidiaries sing russia and the cyber Space Companies<\/a> is used for. Sending money and brought. All of the way you that hartley dont have in the illegal and the the other. Option is to evade taxes yeah which is not debate but optimized taxes thats called this great but these super based companies this offshore Security Companies<\/a> have many other advantages which are more important that optimizing taxes for russians you dont have the proper protection of your wealth and property in russia even if you are a Government Official<\/a> so this Security Companies<\/a> are used as the vehicles to hold the russian asses ok send money from russian s. S. Abroad and then invest them somewhere else not just not in cyprus moves the i guess what do russian authorities make of all this money being transferred to cyprus. Well russian authorities do nothing about that because a person of authority is im not interested in preventing me from going outside of russia to cyprus or whatever else or wherever else because this is their own money they either transferring their own money because this is the corrupt capital so the Government Official<\/a>s or they are interested in the controlling the outflow of russian capital through side results roll through of it to other countries because by controlling anything they get their own share all they piece of cage yeah its from that so this is a reduced will do nothing to prevent the outflow of capital through cyprus or through any other country theyre interested in that now rich russians cant acquire cypriot citizenship without the cooperation of the separate government what role do you see cypriot officials playing in all this. Well russia sadlers have. Long lasting relations they have many business connections they see in this crisis in two thousand and thirty russia help cyprus to. Deal with that and i just ask that they sit through the photo ops one of the best friends all of the russian authorities in the European Union<\/a>. If you if the question is how to prevent them from acting in in favor of russia and violating the or against the European Union<\/a> rules that is to separate questions about the procedures in the banks and how to prevent this corrupt illegal get that it was in flowing to set up we have an opportunity to talk about that again at some point on the cato thank you so much make a ticklish bank off there from the center for transparency and accountability speaking to us from vilnius in lithuania.
