the german model and. in many cases migrants have really been very successfully integrated into the german workforce there's a there's a big shortage of. crazy knees apprentices. markets are doing. very important for valuable things and if you talk to migrants who are being integrated in this way they are indeed. really quite outstanding successes i just came across a bloomberg article on the integration of migrants and essentially the mass it was that because of. the and the willingness of merkel governments to give the moderates and refugees a permanent status of integration is not going on well and the idea was also in that article about the companies are not willing to or not able to in vast long term and training off many of those of those newcomers again because merkel keeps three to rating the point that once the wars are over my gran's are expected to go back into the country to into their home countries rather do you think that is actually a good sense because it seems to me that this is a politic

network and one of the best known correspondents reporting on the german politics. also with us is alan posner a regular columnist for the berlin based newspaper debo hello and a warm welcome to today w.'s political correspondent michelle. michelle i would like to begin with you a bit victory for angela merkel she has secured what is an historic fourth term in office but her conservatives got the worst result since nine hundred forty nine would you say. yes well parties won the elections but this was by no stretch of the imagination a victory she will go down in history as. she's managed to basically impose her own political brand on the c.d.u. party and it looks like own party is now paying dearly at the polls here and money and she herself finds herself in a position where she is weakened as somebody tossed with putting together a coalition now looking on to germany from the outside and having the german chancellor i'm going to machall remain a fixture here suggests that they will be continuity that there will be stability that you can still expect what's coming o

so this is one important aspect, how the german government, how german officials actually found out about this case in the first place. anchor: given that they are german nationals, what does germany seem to be prepared to do about it? reporter: political pressure. that's something we heard today from angela merkel who said they wanted to react decisively, not only trying to make sure, to make clear what the german position is. anchor: thomas, thank you. and one of the german citizens being held in turkey is a newspaper reporter who has been behind bars 200 days. turkish authorities accuse him for spreading propaganda and his case have strained ties. his wife spoke about her husband's detention. >> treating him like this is inhuman, a journalist waiting for 200 days without formal charges. it's not easy, but dennis has remained to remain physically and sikecolingically fit. anchor: a quick trick of other stories making news. in syria, u.s.-backed kurdish forces have said they have recaptured raqqa's old city. the syrian democratic forces describe the victory as a present. raqqa has been t

i have a very german sentence for you. should present germany as a european nation of culture and a liberal constitutional democracy. that one sentence presents a demanding task that is the broadcasting mandate. how do you do that in practical terms. with a lot of interesting programs and i think the most important task that the lawmakers have given us is to inform. the most important. we have to inform specially when i might not be sufficient knowledge about germany or europe. or about topics that people aren't allowed to discuss in their own regions of the wound because their sense of. who has a huge duty to provide freedom of information. and then there's the entire set of values that we also have to impart. as a liberal constitutional democracy that represents and which it propagates is crumbling in poland hungary russia turkey. how does d.w. react to these developments. trying to refer especially to the issues in those places where we have a broadcast presence. in russia and in poland. so we're trying to inform our us

would have gone down quite well with the german elite just before the election. more collaboration and foreign and security policies all of which are things that make good sense but the important one and the one that's going to cause the problems during these negotiation coalitions is his call for a common euro zone finance minister a common euro zone budget of physical capacity which the greens in the coming coat coalition talks are for which the social democrats would have been for but they bowed out which some which angola merkel herself might have even entertained but which the bavarian sister party the christian social union and the free democrats rigidly and stubbornly will oppose because they would they think they fear getting punished yet again by voters because they fear that is the beginning of a slide into a transfer union from their point of view where germany will permanently subsidize other countries and they want to avoid that so this will be one of several key sticking points and one reason because it's the big issues that not the smaller they wil

cars german culture german beer but what isn't popular is the german sanctions against russia e.u. sanctions against russia supported by germany and everybody knows until america will stick to them so yes everybody here is of course unhappy with the situation and would like and get american to change it as soon as possible and many hope she will all right yuri brush is a big country it's got a lot going on but in general how important is the german election to most russians really. well it was very very interesting how the russian to t.v. for example didn't cover the election campaign as too boring it understood understandable for russians but now it's very important and it's headline here is america one this is a multi most important result and as i said the russians seem to be satisfied with this result and recognized america as the german chancellor once again for the fourth time all right that's the view from moscow yury rich shadow thanks for a look. you're watching date on the news coming to you live from berlin our coverage continues at the top of the hour but don't forget y

german government. conservatives are the biggest party in parliament but politically after record losses. also in the news today kurds have been celebrating after holding a referendum for independence from iraq but regional powers are bitterly opposing that vote and threaten retaliation. and the war of words between president and. north korea's foreign minister says the u.s. has declared war on the country. absurd. this is from berlin we have more coming up at the top of the hour don't forget you can always get the latest news as well around the clock at our website. dot com for now though thanks for being with us. us kick up the phone just like guy likes. us dog trash his glove box the black and yellow since the colts home with the half. full needles by after a hard chase snatched up one of us can. tell you. she's long been a symbol of hope in syria trying to help people. outside does she stand for change for the false facade of her husband's room of terror. she believes in by projection that they are

it's ok as long as stays in german hands. just because i believe that it's german location should continue to be strengthened . and that foreign investors particularly chinese ones shouldn't be able to come along and cherry pick the best bits. analysts say the big winner in aberdeen lynn's demise will be germany's number one ally and lufthansa and that for several reasons. with the acquisition of air berlin they're able to strengthen their budget airline euro wings and there's one competitor less meaning they can raise prices we have a big national champion which is what the german government wanted. but the air berlin disaster has its fair share of loses to not just the company's employees but also its passengers after all less competition in the skies will almost certainly hike ticket prices. asleep at the will that's what many accuse the germans of when it comes to. the chinese on the other hand said to be streets ahead but are motorists there electrified about beijing's plans. the sites may look rather humble but don't le

he spent years as the president of the german european parliament german politics. is new terrain for him. a german cannot cast a vote to directly. elect the chancellor but if they coul. hear the numbers for you and they are very telling. so opinion polls indicate that mariko would get forty nine percent of the vote. while thirty seven percent a german voters say they want her conservative cdu csu block. to lead the next government. alright we're gonna take me out to martin schulz and see what he's dealing with tonight. the numbers for him on this debate night are not as good. if the chancellor could be elected directly only twenty six percent of german voters would choose mister schultz. as chancellor and for his party it's even worse just twenty three percent. want his social democrats to lead the next government that's according to the latest opinion poll so you can see how high the stakes are. in tonight's debate many observers saying officials does not pull off a surprising and strong performance his hopes for an election day. victory on september twenty fourth

german art is big business in places like the us britain and china compared to these giants the german art market is only a small player. in the art is created in germany but it's sold in london and new york why is that let's find some answers from stuff i'm trying to from greece about one of germany's most prestigious auction houses. and lobby there's no one lobbying for it it's not like the twenty's when you had patrons in collectors and benefactors from the museums. today art is often bound up with an educational mandate funded by the public with big museums with events. events on a middle class collector peers at a disadvantage and just have to get up. there is another new phenomenon contemporary art is often incredibly expensive while paintings from the eighteenth or nineteenth centuries don't sell at all why is that. and i think also there's a lot of hype at the moment around easy to distressed contemporary work the old master's take effort to appreciate life the notion that you have to be aware of arts mythology and like no graffiti is out of fashion in our time but we're workin

i think the view from david davis and others that once the german election is over and the germans get stuck in. no sign that will happen, but no signs it will make things a lot worse either. chris, thanks very much. jeremy, thanks for the question. immigration was the number one issue in this election. primarily because of angela merkel‘s decision to open adopt anopen border policy in 2015. many came from syria, iraq, afghanistan and eritrea. across 2015 and 2016, germany took in more than one million migrants. there was polling to suggest that angela merkel had ridden out the political impact of the decision. it seems not. a poll from the german state broadcaster found tha 89% of afd voters thought that decision by angela merkel ignored the concerns of ordinary voters. 85% said they wanted stronger national border. stronger national borders. julia ebner, institute for strategic dialogue. she has spent a lot of time looking at the afd. a few viewers asking us should we be scared or worried about this organisation? in many ways, yes. this is the first time in post—war history in ge

is dividing germany and its rise could make german politics fiery. we've just heard of the scandalous rhetoric that the f.t. has been using in their campaign and it seems to have worked because look at this the number of voters that they've managed to get from other parties from the c.d.u. c.s.u. bloc alone they've managed to get over one million voters that's incredible and that's not exclusive to the c.d.u. c.s.u. bloc you can see right across all the other parties they've managed to get more votes from from other parties but where exactly are these voters coming from let's look at the german map to just see that the dock blue areas are where the voters seem to be concentrated and very clearly they are in the east of the country now in these regions so in this states in the east of the country the states are less diverse they are less economically well off than other parts of the country and so they do appear to be more sympathetic to the message of the d. but that's not to say that the east is exclusively for the f.t. as you can see in this in thi

the still strong far right in france what a lot of germans not all germans but what a lot of germans are looking for is strong stable leadership and miracle in the past has has has given that over and over and over again so i think if we're looking at you know what she's going to continue to do if she is elected to be chancellor once again it is she will she will continue to do what she has been so good at which is you know to take opposition policies and co-opt them for herself to continue to give a strong hand for the e.u. and to make no sudden drastic changes that could destabilize the country or the e.u. in general and the you know will we see greater fiscal integration do you think and is that important now for the euro zone of course the that is of course the perennial question and we see angela merkel's counterpart in from home pushing hard for more fiscal integration but the fundamental rules of the euro zone game do not change that is that germany is not does not want to become the e.u. to become a permanent transfer union and nor will it relinquish more money to the rest of

reaction toward the german election. not really no tweet yet from donald trump at least not on the german election no official statement from the white house on the state department the american foreign ministry of course there have been a few reactions we have to say senator john mccain a foreign policy expert for instance. congratulated. with the tweets and praise the german american relationship the alliance as very important for both countries we've also had a reaction from the world jewish council president mr law has praised as a true friend of israel and the jewish people and at the same time set the f.t. was disgraceful and reminded him of doc days and german history but that's about it basically of course the media have reported on the issue on the results of the german election they have focused of course first of all on the fact that i'm going to remain chancellor the f.t. is another big topic and at least in the papers the policy by politics buffs might read the question what is a jamaica coalition because of

parliament like the kaiser he dreamed of a world wide german empire. when war broke out in one nine hundred fourteen he demanded conquests in east and west when it was clear that the war was lost he too wanted to restrict the power of the kaiser but he didn't welcome the republic that was proclaimed on the ninth of november one thousand nine hundred eighteen. one one. that. was a prism and found himself marginalized it seems as with the end of the imperial regime a man's whole world collapsed. for him personally the end of the war brought a hiatus in his career. and february nine hundred nineteen the freely elected german national assembly met environment the city made famous by good turner and schiller strays a man was the chairman of the newly formed german peoples party which wanted a constitutional monarchy but now it was the social democrats like friedrich hébert who had to say. that. i thought. i'd get there but. i gave a right hand. here and. in the national assembly the advocates of a republic had a two thirds majority based on the social demo

german government which every way it is formed shall dress warmly we will hug them. we will hunt mrs merkel whoever and we will take our country people back again. it is incredibly vitriolic language why are they why has a so toxic in their view of the angle america. well they basically have to declare that in a way they've set off a political brand as well being anti machall also looking at polling that actually is a significant proportion of german voters who felt that twelve years is enough american anyway so they tap into this right wing rhetoric they. are going on just in the middle of this campaign saying it's time for germany should draw a line to be proud of the military achievements of demonstrators in world war two and then basically saying well i don't really see what the problem is that's what falls for me to all sit i'm just quoting him and it's this kind of new mechanism that is breaking a consensus here in germany amongst not just the launch parties but also those parties already in opposition that is not something you toy with and hold and strikes me

looking back i am going t w dot com the germans. an overwhelming majority of iraqi kurds have voted in favor of independence from iraq announcing the results of monday's referendum and the election commission said more than ninety two percent of voters in iraq's autonomous kurdistan region had.

special coverage of the german election. chance we're going to tackle has won a fourth term but it's been a bruising night for the country's main parties they've lost a lot of votes compared to the last election four years ago that's true for merkel's conservatives and also for the social democrats or center left coalition partners in the current government now both parties say they're going to work to win boaters back. joy and despair for germany's conservatives they lost significant ground this time around but chancellor angle america will still serve a fourth term she says she'd wished for a better result which is now set to form a new government. isn't starts the cuff we the c.d.u. and the c.s.u. have emerged as the strongest party we have the mandate to form a government and no one will form one against us. the social democrats are in shock after their worst ever result the so-called schultz effect a bump in the polls when party leader martin schultz declared his candidacy went nowhere he's now ruling out joining the ne

eric is an authority on german politics he's also worked as an advisor to the u.s. state department also with me as well to let me editor of target spiegel newspaper right here in berlin he was also the paper's bureau chief in washington d.c. gentlemen it's good to have your the big table and eventful day a historic day. what did germany and its voters decide today actually there well i think they decided to continue with chancellor merkel i mean for all the talk of transformation and everything like that i mean she is going to stay in power most likely so i think they are choosing continuity but there also is some kind of payback i think that a lot of germans were really unhappy with her policy decisions during the migration crisis and now it's coming back to haunt her and she's we can because of it but there's still it's still continuity overall most of the revenge of the voters there's a little little aspect of revenge into it i mean i mean if one party you already mentioned the right wing populist party of the f.t. they were strictly opposing her refugee policy

so two german voters at chancellor one of chancellor angela merkel's rallies. expressing their dissatisfaction you know tell us tell us more about what they are angry about. it's quite interesting actually that there is a core that brings these people together and that is the refugee policy of america but the two people that we just saw for example the woman with the red hair she was in the east she was an openly a f.t. supporting person i have to the also and to germany yes the. immigration party anti islam party exactly that this party and she said when i continue talking to her that was just like a part of our conversation is that the germans we have to wait for furniture or for for flat if we need something that they could pour germans they have to wait forever and the foreigners they come and they are treated like kings and that was basically what she was saying so they left felt left out and not as well treated as the refugees for example the other woman she was rather unsatisfied with the way the anglo american has treated the refugee policy for her that

i want to point out and the results of the german election shows that german society has entrusted in restoring normal relations with russia i hope that the signal will be heard by the federal government including by the new foreign minister. the minister and the uk authorities. would organise. just who that will be and whether an easing of sanctions against russia will follow as to be the subject of intense coalition negotiations that may last months. well the german elections are being followed closely around the world including in west africa and here to talk with me about the region and its relations with germany i'm pleased to welcome missy a pioneer she's a correspondent at channel c.v. in nigeria welcome he received and i'm also joined by editor and news anchor are about coombs and she's with joy news in ghana welcome hour but just to be here you are both here covering the german election for your news organizations and are about to tell us a little bit about what your experience has been like here in berlin so far well it's been interesting of course the difference is in the p
