well it's the social democrats that have been escalating this situation as you have said that the interior domestic intelligence service. has been under a lot of criticism in recent weeks over discussions on demonstrations in kemet spy right wing us in the city of chemists and what in fact happened there is that he directly contradicted statements made by under machall herself that's really the core of the of the issue here the question of whether he was was taking part in a political discussion in which the head of the intelligence service would not be involved he should strictly speaking be someone who provides reliable but neutral information which the politicians can then assess in their own terms this is not happened but what has happened is that the parliament examined and question marks and for several hours yesterday as a result the conservative party said that they were satisfied with his explanations and above all the interior minister who is the direct head of the intelligence service the direct boss of the intelligence service said that he sees no reason to dismiss him now the

democrat leader has resolved really to show in this particular legislative period that the social democrats can be very very uncomfortable coalition partners one of the. alternative for germany germany far right opposition party and they seem very much to be enjoying themselves at the chancellor's expense. indeed they're very much. in the top of everyone's minds they dominated the key budget debate yesterday and you know they they're dominating the headlines in many way in many ways and as you know any form of published is good publicity. for spring kate thank you. you're welcome but take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world germany is close to agreeing a deal with italy to return migrants german interior minister jose hoffa told parliament that only signatures were being away said the agreement allows germany to turn away migrants at its border with austria if they have already been registered as refugees in italy. sprains parliament has voted to remove the remains of former dictator general franco from his two franco rule spain where they have for thirty si

let's get the latest now with our political correspondent hans bronte hans so the social democrats they are part of chancellor merkel's government and they want mohsin gone will they get their way well that's not the social democrats obviously who can get him dismissal who called who can dismiss him but they are escalating the situation all mohsen spend about five dollars in parliament yesterday explaining to both the intelligence committee and the committee for interior of what is the exact position was. clearly the social democrats have not been satisfied with the explanations that were given and parliament yesterday and they haven't all as a party said that this state of the domestic intelligence should be dismissed the formal formal boss of the domestic intelligence of mr mostyn is the interior minister that is holds the whole of he is from going to marcos conservative says the party from bavaria and they have always been tensions between holds the whole for and i'm going to michael so what the social democrats in fact are doing are increasing tensions within the government as a who

saying this social democrats the social democrats will not agree either in parliament or in the government to germany's participation in the war in syria so very very stark divisions and christopher help whitely is it that the chancellor will go ahead without the support of these social democrats and say yes to produce a patient in a military operation. looking at things from the perspective of today i think it's quite unlikely for chancellor merkel to ride roughshod if you want. the very clear opposition from coalition partners and ran on this opposition is was formulated in such a categoric way that it really if chancellor merkel were to ignore that it would threaten the survival again of her already fractious governing coalition. christophers bring it on the story for us tonight here in berlin christopher thank you you're welcome. or tonight hungary's prime minister viktor orban is accusing the european union of trying to blackmail his country over its treatment of migrants the european parliament is debating whether or not to sanction hungering for what he calls the erosion of the rule

the social democrats which have had an array of leadership struggle just finish that off but still kind of not really knowing as a junior coalition partner where they're standing what they want and then the conservatives in bavaria the see as you head into election in their federal state and the variant two weeks where there's also expected with their current decreased polling results that they will have a leadership struggle after that and then merkel what as we have seen yesterday where her own faction in palm and isn't following her recommendation on which on the person she wants as the faction leader so we see that there's also a shift of the base is the backbenchers challenging the challenge of the chancellor and with all these properties not having the backing of their backbenchers in parliament it's difficult for them to put their policies through with in as a government coalition now some macs have described where that happened as an affront to a chance. america what does this all mean for her position. well it's certainly going to be interesting to see how she's going to come o

take the place of another deputy minister who was announced who was put there by the social democrats so where does this leave the social democrats well they're the ones who are currently losing in two counts in the situation first of all there's also the sacking of mohsen but he's now been given a higher position under his mentor the interior minister who was the office and they also lose political power within the interior ministry. and they've been speaking about this and yes they have in fact the. secretary has been quite critical of how this situation has developed. said to. them would not have been made deputy minister under an s.p.d. interior minister the minister and it's also important to point out that even the chancellor distanced herself from this horse a whole for bringing martin into his interior ministry looks like another appealed to the chancellor and i don't know how that will affect the coalition's internal relations in future lost and that of. mr kling bille it's not wrong that this does look like a another rebuke to the chances so where does this leave this chance

junior coalition partners the social democrats have demanded mawson's removal but party leaders finally agree to his job change instead the concession has a poll to other party members. as i'm talking shit it's a slap in the face to people who take responsibility for their actions and who if they make a mistake don't get promoted or even face negative consequences i think the price is too high for the survival of the coalition. leaders of the opposition have also greeted the news with school on. a pawn sacrificed in their game to save the coalition. the head of germany's domestic intelligence agency came under heavy criticism for a public statement following right wing riots in the eastern city of ken that's massive as to that the video being circulated did not necessarily show mobs hunting down individuals but had possibly been manipulated to spread fake news musson statement directly contradicted chancellor america from the start she had condemned what she referred to as a hostile mob the only politician to defend mass and was his boss interior minister . who heads the conservative c.

this is the social democrats headquarters we are looking at. we don't expect a huge anything at all announcement is made. that's talked about sweden democrats. their votes are in neo—nazi politics. they have attempted to clean it up and eradicate that type of influence, but it still seems to be be imagined. it is a discussion in sweden this is a racist party not. when all is most 20% of the population started vote for a party, it is very difficult to say that they are racist. and that has been a big problem in this campaign, that we cannot agree what sweden democrats r. we were definitely no more than the next half an hour or so. more than the next half an hour or so. please stay with us and give us some analysis on the media get the final result. thank you. russians angry at pension reforms have staged protests across the country. the jailed opposition leader, alexei navalny, called for the rallies. there's widespread discontent over the pension changes, which will force men and women to work five extra years. these pictures have just come i

the center left social democrats have been the biggest party in every swedish election for a century true again this time but not by far and it's a relief it's been their worst result of a i think it's fine big problem now is how can we make it. how can you be a government with this since it's really hard to see. how to how to make us table government this is an election that scene support shift from the center to the extremes coalition building will be tough one big winner has been the anti immigrant sweden democrats are not as big as they'd hoped the story of the night is that while the far right has become a force in swedish politics they won't be taking over just yet what would seem hairy is a political earthquake. really brought to sweep this political history and i think that they're the leaders of the two big parties social democrats and the moderate party need to listen to this single from the swedish people need to say is the policies. that the sweetest people want to see the rise of the far right in sweden meant voters took to the election with customary. suzy hasn't even i

it was the head of the social democrats who sent a letter to angela merkel, the head of the cdu, and also the head of the bavarian sister party, saying it was time to revisit the decision because they had made the wrong decision when they decided not only to fire mr. maassen went to promote him to another job within the internal ministry. ms. merkel stressed once again that it was time to revisit the decision. she believed that was the correct way forward. it is highly unusual in germany that this is happening and it just shows to what extent the coalition here in germany is divided on fundamental issues like the fate of germany's domestic intelligence chief. phil: stay with us as we take a look at the latest political polls which are out today, which make for scary reading for germany's mainstream parties. the latest survey by german broadcaster ard show that only 28% of voters back the chancellor's conservative bloc. her social democrat coalition partners, the spd, are down to 17%, and they've been overtaken by the far right alternative for germany party. that makes the afd the sec

democrat coalition partners the s.p.d. are down to seventeen percent and they've been overtaken by the far right alternative for germany the party of eighteen percent that makes the f.t. the second strongest political force in the country calling for the green left and pro-business f.t.p. parties is largely remained the same so thomas sparrow perhaps these polling figures explain why the three party leaders have agreed so quickly to new talks in part that's correct obviously because they realize that they do not necessarily reflect. what the public what the german of voters are thinking you can just imagine the criticism that came from german voters after mr marson was promoted and there was an outcry also on social media regarding this decision but i would see and i would interpret these numbers in a more much broader perspective because it's not only about mr marson that we see these numbers it's about a general sense of disconnect between german voters and traditional parties like the conservative bloc all the social de

the social democrats leader and the question is how could such a solution look like because i mean as you said already the guy was the man who was promoted instead of punished and that is something that caused great outrage so one has to find a solution where there is a new job for him where he at least earn more money than before this is the big issue you know that they have to find if there's nothing on the table at the end of these negotiations that would be a big loss for the social democrats and also because they wanted to have those negotiations but i don't think that the government could collapse because at the end of the day the social democrats have already agreed ones to this compromise with. political correspondent up in front of mark thank you. well it made history this year as the first kenya film to be shown at the cannes film festival and now kenya's high court has temporarily lifted a ban on graffiti which is a film that explores lesbian ism the decision came after the film's director sued the government not just to allow it to be screened in kenya but also to make it

democrats a very good evening miss close of first things first house the leader of the social democrats miss not has been outmaneuvered by the interior minister mr say offer. well i would say so yes actually i mean it's a success after all that said as he was able to remove mass and. from this old post but now that he's now joining the government that's i would say a big success for haas they will fire the interior minister and actually have the defeat at say mostly for america but also for the social democratic party opposes the big question and that is we want to protect our democracy and that's why we wanted to remove mass from his responsibility and now he's having an even more powerful office and this well of questions on the. how we how successful we were by protecting our democracy from this guy and from his conspiracy theories so do you think this is a mistake yes i think it's a huge mistake because it undermines. trust in democracy from our population and also shows that machall actually is quite powerless. on the grist for interior minister that she has no power anymore really

democrats a conservative had scaled must and must go if they could quit governing coalition of those but so anyone at the head of a security institution of our country has to be absolutely trustworthy it's obvious that this trust no longer exists so there must be consequences. musson is accused of improperly passing on sensitive information to germany's far right populist party the f.t. and the f.t. member told german media the data was contained in an unreleased government report . and we spoke with mr martin about the report it wasn't available in printed form yet we talked about various numbers and figures such as right wing extremism left wing extremism and islamist threats. critics point to other instances where they say mass and has favored the far right or been less than forthright about past conversations but for the time being his conservative boss interior minister horst say hoffa has backed the secret service had. this oh. god like to tell you that mr marson has my confidence as head of the office of the protection of the constitution of. say s.p.d. chairwoman met for cris

democrats have lost votes. in comparison to the last election but it's not as devastating as some had feared and they might as well hold onto power it depends now on the showing of the others of the greens and the left party ok but still significant gains there for the far right swedish democrats as you were saying is there a chance that they could now become part of the next government. that depends on whether the fire wall that the other parties the traditional sweetie party so far have defended against the right wing populist and we've been asking around here today during election day and everybody who was allied to one of these party said no we will not do it no way under no circumstances of course they had been reporting before this day whereas some observers said we're not so sure they might you know sort of make a pact bot if the social democrats the other two leftist parties emerge as the strongest force and they can again form a minority government then no they will not get the direct say however they

in particular, the social democrats from the junior coalition partners, chancellor merkel's coalition, their stance stiffened quite considerably, and they are fairly category in their domains for his resignation. the opposition liberal free democrats were also dillydallying last night, but they have stiffened their stance as well. i would say there is a very big question mark on how long hans-georg maassen is going to survive in his post. there is one persistent rumor going around berlin this evening, which is that the three leaders who are talking to each other, coalition leaders talking to each other in the chancellor's office today, the best solution to this most elegant solution to this, would be if hans-georg maassen himself decided to step down, thereby freeing them from the responsibility of a firing him. brent: i want you to take a look at this tweet that was posted today. the general secretary of the social democrats, he tweeted, "it's completely clear to the spd party leadership that maassen has to go. merkel must act now." customer, -- christopher, how politically explosive

democrats andrea novelis categorically refusing that option she said and the social democrats will not agree either in parliament or in the government to germany's participation in war in syria so quite serious divisions so how likely would the chance to be to go ahead without the support of as speed the coalition is. well taking today's perspective i think it would be quite unlikely simply because if chancellor merkel were to ride roughshod over the opposition of you know one of the major partners in her already fragile coalition it would put that coalition. very much at risk again and. the categoric nature of her statement and the sharpness the terseness of her statement sort of reveals that. she's not going to be discussing this she's there are many many pacifists in the social democrats both within functionaries and among the ranks of their supporters and the party is losing so much support at the moment and renata it's going to do all she can to shore up that support christmas brigade thank you you're welcome. russia has begun its biggest military exercises since the end of the co

junior coalition partners the social democrats who demanded martin's removal but party leaders finally agreed to his job change instead the concession has appalled other party members. as i'm far from feel it's a slap in the face to people who take responsibility for their actions and who if they make a mistake don't get promoted or even face negative consequences i think the price is too high for the survival of the coalition. leaders of the opposition have also greeted the news with scorn. and sacrificed in their game to save the coalition. the head of germany's domestic intelligence agency came under heavy criticism for a public statement following right wing riots in the eastern city of ken that's massive asserted that the video being circulated did not necessarily show mobs hunting down individuals but had possibly been manipulated to spread fake news mustn't statement directly contradicted chancellor america from the start she had condemned what she referred to as a hostile mob the only politician to defend mass and was his boss interior minister . who heads the conservative c.s.
