the democracy of germany, you cannot separate it from the way germany dealt with its past. when you have a party like the afd which is attacking this way of dealing with memory, that is fundamentally for the democracy, then, in a way, this party attacks also the democracy. because the way of dealing with history in germany, especially, brought the people, the civilians, to develop a sense for individual moral responsibility. peter: would you like to pick up on that, alan? alan: not really, because i agree totally. i cannot say much about that. you're totally right, geraldine. peter: the alternative for germany, as we have seen, they are now a far right party. they are in the german parliament, the bundestag. the question is now how to respond to them. their presence here is one example. in september 2017, the far right populist alternative for germany became the third largest party in germany's bundestag. they claim to be the only ones who can preserve germany. the rhetoric is getting tougher on all sides. >> no, i will not allow any heckling. all the members sitting there

sparking a massive debate here in germany also of all of. the time interior minister in two thousand and six said something along these lines but you know this is what is famous for he's always been the foreigner in uncle americal side especially when it comes to the migrant crisis and to the migrant policy off the open doors allowing more than one million refugees coming here to germany in two thousand and fifteen and this is the picture he's trying to draw off himself for the bavarian voter the guy from bavaria who comes to berlin defending conservative values here the question is going to be very interesting to watch right now whether this plan will work out because no doubt he's a good p.r. guy but the question is will voters appreciate this roof or will it fire back and resolve in a further. support in the if the party getting stronger as a result of that because those who are the ones today who are applauding the lot of the loudest given what you've said about playing to the crowds i wonder how the chancellor and her interior minister

have a place in germany islam does not. this country has been culturally influenced by christianity for hundreds of years. that's why it is wrong to say that islam belongs to germany. in teaser form flourish chancellor angela merkel disagrees and she very quickly and publicly slapped down her interior minister and party ally inspiration to me you are in the four million muslims who currently live in germany practiced their religion. and they belong here just as much as their religion does your own government to do it stand i thought. germany's new justice minister offered a reminder that freedom of religion is strictly protected in the constitution. mentioned i mean i think people are tired of these theoretical discussions about terminology it's clear to everyone that we need practical solutions to our problems i hope we can agree that our value system encompasses everyone's basic rights. the central council of muslims in germany says politicians shouldn't adopt far right rhetoric in the run up to a regional election. it's

the tension in germany's new government says the interior minister says it is not part of germany.

germany to built up its democracy the democracy of germany you call it separate it from the way germany dealt with its past so when you have a party like the a if they which is attacking this way of dealing with memory the. fundamentally father democracy then in a way this party attacks also the democracy because the way of dealing with history in germany especially brought the people. the civilians to develop a sense for individual moral responsibility to pick up on the phone. well. not really because i agree totally i mean i can't say much about that you're totally right geraldine that's something let's go back to the the alternative for germany as we've seen the very year on our far right party there in the german parliament the bundestag the question is now how to respond to them and their presence here is one example. in september twenty seventeen the far right populist alternative for germany we cannot the third largest party in germany's ponderous time they claim to be the only ones who can preserve germany the rhetoric is getting tougher on all sides thank you so you know i won'

that goes for his fellow left-wingers in germany, too. >> in germany, the social democrats say they need to govern with the conservatives for the good of the country. but that's a mistake. because europe needs a common discourse. we need to say we'll no longer accept the status quo -- a europe that pleases the rich and crushes the poor. >> mehdi chalah himself grew up in a poor family. but he worked hard in school and came here every evening to get help with his homework, so he was able to study law. at 17, he joined france's socialist party. it's been in power in lille for decades, and is renovating the area mehdi chalah grew up in. though even that, he says, won't level the playing field for its residents. >> as a teenager, it became clear how important this association was to me, because no one could help me at home. for kids whose parents are teachers, doctors, or lawyers it's a different story. and that's simply not fair. >> he went into politics and moved to paris to work as parliamentary assistant for a socialist mp. but his political aspirations were quashed during the french leg

up and actually even in germany we see a close adherence to patry arkell traditions in germany especially chiefly because . migration per se makes people more conservative as we see worldwide people living in germany who originally come from turkey or muslim countries are more conservative than in their countries of origin microns of at. some muslim families it's actually seen as wrong for women to have equal rights in germany we have the basic law enshrining women's rights as equals is this ignored in muslim families in germany. and unfortunately in europe and particularly in germany there are parallel societies with people from turkey or muslim cultural circles who believe that german or european law does not apply to them their values are the values of sharia law not just the ritual aspects of sharia but its legal aspects to democracy is something they do not accept unfortunately many families see the world this way. why is such intolerance accepted in germany as the state looks on who does nothing to intervene. like a beggar i would say no freedom for the enemies of freedom no toleran

coalition agreement the finance ministry is well which really is a key ministry here in germany that something magical got a lot of criticism over from her own party that she gave away that's one key ministry so this is something the sister democrats simply didn't want to say before they learned the result of the vote because they're very keen on at least dimming down this debate this bruising battle that there has been over posts and people and names within the party and certainly if they were seen to already divide up the ministries before they even know what the party base wants them to join merkel's cabinet once again that ford of really decrease the chances of this vote going in the direction of the party leadership wants to see and for a viewers are just joining us michelle we are waiting for the social democrat party to reveal the results of that key ballot and we are hearing some unconfirmed reports at this point we should stress that these are unconfirmed that the party base has voted in favor of supporting another coalition government with a chancellor angela merkel's conse
