with the approval of the basic law constitution the federal republic of germany west germany was established in. 949 you have your buffoon aunts here. looking back on 70 years of german history and here we see kind of had no assigning the basic law at george. and when the last of germany was still in ruins but no i wanted to emphasize the importance of this historic moment. so he used the very grand gilded silverware from cologne town hall. that. the establishment of west and east germany in 1949 sealed the division of the country. and became the provisional capital of west germany and the seat of its parliament. its fast freely elected members sat on these chairs. and you all know this tells us something about the 1st west german parliament. we got some of the original seats and created this display also the podium and lectern from which are no and others address the assembly element. we have some speeches about nuclear weapons which was a major issue back then and. i look at some and also lighthearted and even reality ones which show how parliamentarians sometimes let rip. important moment

germany once again on north stream donald trump is particularly critical of germany's north stream to project because he believes germany would be hostage to russian interests so these are not necessarily new words from donald trump but they do reveal once again the difficult situation that the transatlantic relationship is facing you mention north stream that's the pipeline that brings gas from russia to germany and as you said donald trump had some particularly strong words to say there let's listen to what he said. when germany made a decision to buy a tremendous percentage of their energy from russia and germany whether they should be doing that or not they're the ones that have the power to block it they shouldn't buy it or if they want to they can but that's really a decision of germany i'm not saying that i would be in favor i think the german people are very happy about it because it really makes germany a hostage of russia. if things ever happen ok thomas these comments are not new from the u.s. president but still should the german government be worried about them and warnin

agreement sets the course for the decisions of germany in terms of policy in germany and abroad this you do you will continue to contribution to a stable functioning government thank you very much. from what we're going to see so that's all all right so that was a very brief statement from be head of the c.d.u. . for some analysis now i'm going to be speaking to a political correspondent kate brady. short sweet. i think. what i mean what what what are we expecting from the c.d.u. obviously the any problems with the s.p.d. directly affect the grand coalition with the c.d.u. and what impact is this going to have on the on the ground coalition well it certainly does have an impact but as we heard there from and i put. the cd you know conservative party leader the seedier is very much keen to push on with this so-called grand coalition but of course right now looking especially at the opinion polls as anything but grand about it that was the title given previously to these 2 main parties germany's big tent centrist party the social democrats and the conservatives both who have suffered h

germany's super rich no other european country has as many 1000000000. and while there fortunes are growing more and more living under the poverty line set by the organization for economic cooperation and development. the press frequently reports on the country's high income inequality and low social mobility but little is known about the super rich the truth sure money attracts success and success attracts money as i do believe that and i've experienced it myself you can suddenly connect with people previously out of reach for. the wealthy how do they live and how do they see the country they live in. the way wealthy people in germany are talked about bothers me because it sensationalizing him sycophantic and in no way reflects what wealthy people have done and continue to do for this country for produce ludlow's. only creates this impression of rich people being like scrooge mcduck that they have these money bins in which they wallow in their coins. look scrooge mcduck wants more more more that's not what world minded i walk around in my house but not

will be stationed in germany. stationed in poland almost as if the move is intended to plunge germany is that how you read it. well i think it's plays into the present personal narrative that we've we've been hearing for a long time but i think i think he also said in the announcement said from germany and other locations but then when you step back and think about the historic context look during the cold war for a long time the nato alliance had forces stationed in germany right on the frontier since the cold war ended and nato and large them brought in a new allies that front here has moved in so poland's now on the frontier so i wouldn't take this as such a you know a personal attempted offense to germany this is history playing out where poland has chosen by its own sovereign will to join the nato alliance and it's now on the frontier so the frontier has moved and the party of democratic like minded allies has expanded i would take it more in that context than any personal issues or concerns about germany's d

post-war germany west germany and complete sham any we had 2 camps center right sent to left and 2 big parties one to the right the christian democrats and one minute the ball to the left the social democrat. and the idea was that these 2 parties always could get a majority and that they had different concepts and if one government was not delivering anymore the other could take over and having these 3 grand coalitions with until america already. this whole idea is. just not working anymore because i'm going to michael has turned to the left she's a social democrats some people in her party say and this is not a positive thing in her party and on the other hand we had before. who also turn to the right and was doing something his own electorate wasn't really saying was a good thing so these are all whole idea is not working anymore and we don't have any. probably any new parties that give us an idea how it could work so the traditional german policies being swept aside to a certain extent from that's a by by tectonic changes there and among those there's a lot of talk about another tec

when they were young they had never imagined is germany west germany or. united reunion. but somehow it upand saw. that those german told me don't lose my home because everything could happen both men hope for hong kong homeland where democracy and the rule of law prevail just like in germany. entire regions of mozambique were destroyed in early march when a cycle tore through the country more than a 1000 people died and hundreds of thousands were left homeless people were left without basic supplies those in the port city of beirut were among the hardest hit . weeks after the cycle on and really you know it's house is still barely habitable for the family have moved all their possessions into the only undamaged room that's also where they now sleep. you know we'll never forget the day the storm hit. i was just the idea to go anywhere because that was so wally they couldn't come out so they leave. going out that was a very very plain. leonore's houses just a few 100 meters from the shore the sea is the most immediate danger. often floods parts of the city are below sea le

this is you know he was lying from berlin raising a red flag germany's top security official says the political assassination of a local politician is an alarm bell for german democracy or say off for germany's interior minister calls the fatal shooting of a politician fall to the because the earlier this month repulsive and says it's evidence of the dangerous new face of right wing extremism also coming up a fresh apology from hong kong's leader kerry last for the unrest sparked by her controversial extradition bill but despite taking responsibility for the crisis she refuses to resign protesters meanwhile are still calling for her to step down and the former head of european football should bettine maintains his innocence after being detained by police in france investigators are looking into the awarding of the 2022 world cup soccer tournament to the gulf state of qatar. where hard thank you so much for joining us everyone it's an assassination that has sent shock waves through germany a regional promo politician shot execution style on the terrace of his own home well now 2 weeks

that germany has a long environmentalist green tradition and i wonder whether you believe that that image of germany still stands up and still violent yes of course it is climate change protection that has moved in the middle and into the mainstream within the last month and that i think that the green party success is in some kind you can you can understand it as the movement off climate change protections within the family's bijan. a broader society we have. professor malcolm. va question is i suppose this excess of the greens that has now been on the very been on the rise as marx he was pointing out for quite some time is it here to stay because they've been they've been here before and faded back to becoming a 1015 percent party are they here to stay this time as one of germany's leading forces i'm i'm a bit more cautious about these polls reading and press and polls are polls elections are elections and by the way european elections are different from national elections in national election the people milne vote more for party where they're not only have trust and have sympathy

germany's wealthiest people live why do they keep such a low profile me i was snooping around to catch a glimpse. of the it's hard. to describe the super rich starts to take. agriculture is in crisis not just in many parts of africa which are prone to drought and land speculation ravaged by climate change soil degradation pesticides and insect death a lot of farm land is no longer able to bring forth the bounty who once taken for granted the united states to europe from africa to asia and australia there is trouble on the farm and if we want to continue having our daily bread we have to act now welcome to mate and it's time to rethink the way we farm our land why because even in temperate climate zones like europe conditions are changing and they're changing fast in regions of germany for example the water table is falling and harvests are declining as a result adapting to the new conditions requires a willingness to explore new methods and take advantage of new opportunities when your crops no longer grow the way they used to it may be time to try something different. full it's early

when it comes to germany's defense spending that he would like germany to spend much more than what the country is spending we've heard before from donald trump his criticism about germany's planned north spring 2 pipeline with russia on watch he views there as germany becoming hostage of russia those were his words not mine so in a sense this is not new the possibility that there could be sanctions when it comes north is maybe further development of all this but as our xandra correctly pointed from washington i would interpret donald trump's words as a sign of what is becoming a very troubled relationship between washington and now that the possibility of sanctions has been firmly put on the table should the german government be worried they should such in the considerate and look at that very carefully a pretty sure that they are doing that already as i say trump's comments on north into are not new we've heard that many times before but when we look at those comments by donald trump we also have to look at a separate issue when it comes i mean not only about energy security donal

all right so germany heading home just how disappointed are they yeah this is a big blow for germany this is the 2nd time that crashed in the quarterfinals in a major tournament in 2 years after the disappointment of the euro 2017 and this also means that germany won't be competing in the olympics next year in tokyo only the top 3 teams your pain teams in the world cup go through and so that's a huge blow in terms of the team's development this is a young team a few of the players will be retiring and you know they need these competitive games to move forward as a football nation i think largely the qualification for the olympics needs to be taken a look at i think there should be proper qualifications so that the top teams do go and compete in it but that said germany didn't deserve to win this match they knew what was at stake and still have to move forward from here all right so what this means is that sweden will now play the netherlands how did they get through yes so this was a very tough match the netherlands up against italy and it was played in startling hit 33 degrees they

you recently warned jews not to wear a keep in germany but anti-semitism is nothing unique to germany it exists in many countries in the us we've seen it were jewish life is much more prominent than in germany even in israel there's often tension sometimes violence between secular and religious jews why a specific warning for jews in germany. semitism in germany is always something very special because the holocaust was invented here and happened here and of course we have to take a very very close look at the situation and with the description of the reality i wanted to trigger an honest. discussion and like in normal life i think when you want to make a good therapy you 1st have to analyze the situation this is what i did and i'm quite satisfied that the discussion is so broad now that we have to protect jewish life in germany together politics the state and society as well and it comes in the context of our crude stay which you are calling on all germans to wear a keep in solidarity with jews could stay which has origins in iran is to show support for the palestinian state it's inh

he started to talk about germany and poland on his own he also criticized germany for relying on. and their g. coming from russia so i think that it was at least he's intention once again to criticize germany and its policy towards russia and oil also the fact that germany is not committed to spends 2 percent of its g.d.p. on defense you know that's why the 2 percent keeps coming up again and again with nato and with trump you know he is always under a phenomena there at the white house and washington alexander thank you our sports news now and the women's world cup germany took on spain in their 2nd game of group b. both signs won their opening match making the winner of this fixture favorites to end up topping the group germany prevailed but it was a tough battle in the rain. germany without injured star midfielder jennifer were under pressure against spain who created more chances early on but shortly before the break germany applied their own pressure off the cross alexander pops had her popped out and sound at the average was there to pick up the pieces giving germany a one g

germany's super wealthy how do they live and how do they see the country they live in. the way wealthy people in germany are talked about bothers me because it sensationalizing and sycophantic and and in no way reflects what wealthy people have done and continue to do for this country for this long clothes on but. i need a creates this impression of rich people being like scrooge mcduck that they have these money bins in which they wallow in their coins. and scrooge mcduck wants more more more that's not my world mind if. i like earning money but not swimming and. we thought. we wanted to get closer to the discreet world of germany's ultra rich of company owners and as with millions we wanted to find out what makes those on top of the world take. every year an exclusive event takes place in the schlosser take on balcony a friend 1st to which the public is not invited. it's the annual hall of fame evening for the business monthly manager magazine partly any other occasion in germany draws as many wealthy business onus. the air gets a lot out of steam to presenters did ju

germany. well i have to say this that as a german reporting here at the white house i could certainly say that i would understand this this way. that the u.s. is deploying additional troops to poland and that those troops would be coming possibly from germany or our countries at the same time he prays poland for spending 2 percent of his g.d.p. on defense and went on criticizing germany for not spending enough then he praised poland for. buying the u.s. liquefied natural gas and criticism. at the same time germany for relying too much for making a tremendous mistake to rely too much on natural gas and energy from russia so certainly it appears as a sort of punishment for germany but of course we cannot say for sure if that was what presidents trump really meant by making this announcement today all right center for a moment outside the white house in washington alexander thank you. well i'm joined now from our washington bureau by. senior vice president of the atlantic council and director of

in germany we should not forget that germany has historical responsibility when it comes to fighting right wing extremism but notwithstanding this history of germany it should always be the responsibility and the duty of authorities to fight right wing extremism and i would have wished that the federal minister of the interior. would find words to describe also a political leadership and a political responsibility in doing so words and what actions. what should he do it was before it needs to be investigated whether there was a network behind the suspect the suspect claims to have acted alone but this shouldn't be believed without further investigation so 1st of all we need to investigate whether there's a network behind him 2nd we have to work on the digital competencies and the digital understanding of our security or thora to use they don't have in mind and they don't know what's going on in the internet when it comes to hate speech when it comes to threatening politicians when it comes to people threatening people that are engaged in the civil society and we have to discuss about

of west germany and i'll complete germany we had two camps center right center left and two big parties. one but it would move to the right the christian democrats and one minute the ball to the left of the social democrats. and the idea was that these two parties always could get a majority and that they had different concepts and if -- one government was not. delivering anymore the other could take over and having these three grand coalitions with underlying medical already -- this whole idea is now. just -- not working anymore because i'm gonna michael has turned to the left uses social democrats some people in a party say and this is not a positive thing and a party. and on the other hand we had before we get out shura. who also turn to the right and was doing something his own electorate wasn't really saying was good thing? so. these are whole idea is now or not working anymore and we don't have any. probably any new parties that give us an idea how it could work. so the traditional german parties being swept aside to a certain extent vanessa bye. bye. tectonic changes that among t

against uniforms in germany you know nazi society was. in uniform today in germany wearing a uniform of any form is difficult even school uniforms are something that you don't see in germany at all partly because of that so there's a very strong sense that one has to prevent germany prevent germans from doing this kind of thing again in fact there are not many memorials for these kind of events from the 2nd world war and if there are more stand up cold memorial stone cold warnings there cold monuments of warning to warn people and the public against a repetition of these kind of crimes that germany committed and that about time we're getting live images from normandy right now the british prime minister there awaiting the arrival of french president manu all. i have in the studio with me are political commentators orders on tomorrow's face manual. when as we wait for the french president to arrive we've been hearing what this means for people in germany not only young people. and today in france germany is considered such an important par

they fear legal action if they return to germany. and women even when i listen to her i think she would rather stay down here i'm not convinced sarra is willing to let go of her beliefs. on the. man who will is still missing fabiani is imprisoned somewhere. you or him go hard wonders if his sons still hold radical beliefs. or if they've come to regret having joined the i.a.s. . and got from iran to kind of plastic and they weren't bad children in germany but the things he did down here will have to face the consequences for that. and if need be i'll have to face a sentence in germany. in germany your team says his sons lived a sheltered life untouched by war. now he realizes many germans would fear them as terrorists. i want to ask him how he got to this point to do these things he never learned any of this in germany. says that he really believes that this is what a good life is about taking others as slaves torturing them and this if you really think that's ok i'd like to ask him myself even if he has committed atrocities he still

wants germany to block away from its 5 g. network well it definitely does it's a major stumbling stone right now in the relations between the 2 countries because as i was just talking about there germany has a problem when it comes to building these type of networks it's a huge problem the last 2030 years hallway is the market leader when it comes to this type of technology it's also the cheapest provider that's out there so really if germany wants to build a 5 g. network quickly efficiently it needs hallways technology however the trump administration argues that there's a lot of securities concerns out there now the german government has echoed some of those concerns heigl mouse said recently they admitted to the fact that there were some security concerns around huawei however germany really can't afford to block them out of the development of 5 g. at the moment which is part of the reason we're seen such a contentious issue develop between washington and berlin at the moment all right aaron chilton from business thank you

compulsory military service ended in germany in 2011 but more and more people are getting into john. what is a weapon like this do to you and to me that's what i want to find out that much i ask. it. because we aren't using lethal weapons these are airsoft guns looking credibly real and cost around a $1000.00 euros each. they only fire small plastic balls. but it still hurts. i got here that's my 1st one and one more and i'm out. of all of them to all the other popular shooting games include laser tag and paint ball the bullets are still quite high velocity which is why we only wear goggles and you can't play until you're 18. the demand is huge here in knocked about alone the number of players has increased 10 fold since 2013. everybody seems to know what to do apart from me i'm a complete novice. coach and i'm actually pretty stupid here but it's not something that comes naturally to me i'm a civilian at heart. military service wasn't for me i refused and did civilian service instead and then i presented a kid show. but as a journalist now of course i'm curious where does this new l

live from berlin and virus mental activists faced off with police that protest that i'm lying here in germany thousands of people have turned out to call on the government to immediately end its reliance on tolt and. members of the german government to sound the alarm about the far right extremism weeks after the murder of a pro refugee politician shocked the country to ask just how being germany's neo nazi problem is also coming up. after undergoing heart surgery rolling stones front man made jagger hit the stage again and the better in france launches its latest north america tour. player. play. on the welcome to the show. hundreds of climate activists have broken through a police line and stormed one of germany's biggest lignite coal mines several police officers have reportedly been injured it's the culmination of a mass protest organized by several environmentalist groups activists are demanding that germany take immediate action to phase out fossil fuel so as to limit global warming. ok. it's a coordinated protest targeting several different locations slowly this group of demonstrators

a huge lead off for germany. germany's big break arrived in the 2nd town adores to encourage a corner was cleared but only as far as julia when the midfielder smashing home to put herself in the lead for good. one nil the final score coach martina fostex lim board could be happy that her team came away with a scrappy victory i. sew a rather tight make 3 there for germany but what a moment for into what did you think of her performance absolutely is very impressive for a while to come out with a moment like that a match winning moment for a 19 year old as well playing a 1st world cup game ever just over the moon after that i thought her instead you hoops the 2 wing is where germany's best outlet talking out ledger in the game when they struggled really to create chances those 2 were the best options that they had so that was one plus and i think youth generally was a big plus for germany in this game as well aside from julie had when they all. he was just 17 years of all come on off the bench. just 21 she is someo
