going into this meeting angela merkel had three big challenges. office,to stay in another was to keep the christian democrats together, and the other was to desert minister -- of these are .inister -- appease the minister they will bring able to determine who will stay in germany. at the german government has also announced a bilateral deal with austria. that theed out minister stays and angela merkel presumably also stays. this is the newspaper in germany and basically the message is clear. seehofer stays. about what does this say merkel's leadership? she might have stymied this particular eruption, but it just does not look that stable, does it? >> exactly. this is a diminished chancellor. clearly hurt election performance was a sign of that. angela merkel has been able to cut a deal, a migration deal in brussels, and three bilateral deals when it comes to migration with the governments of spain, greece, and austria. this is a government that still yields a lot of power and can get things done. no one to this point is willing to challenge her op

and chancellor angela merkel c.d.u. have found a compromise for their ongoing fight over germany's migration policy. after very intense negotiations between the c.d.u. and the c.s.u. we've reached an agreement we have a clear arrangement for preventing illegal migration at the border between germany and austria in the future. the two sister parties have decided to set up so-called transit centers on the german austrian border from where asylum seekers who have already registered in another country would be transferred. that's who would also put us in addition we will undertake domestic measures and covariates with refugees countries of origin as well as with other nations. we will set up transit centers and from there we will consult with other countries especially as island seekers home countries and the countries where they are already registered in europe then we will make it possible to return those asylum seekers accordingly this is precisely no cordons with the spirit of partnership in the european union after nob

talking about angela merkel. germany just started paying billions of dollars for energy needs for russia. not stacceptable. all nato nations must meet the spending percentage of 2%. i think the politicians here and diplomats were expecting to tie up the loose ends from yesterday. there was a communication that was outlined with the final statements. i think that potentially we are not quite out of the woods yet when donald trump shows up half an hour late and he tweets like that this morning. remember, he put all these points on the record yesterday. he made those punches yesterday. he comes back with this today. you know, we don't know what it adds up to at the moment. i think we are trying to see what is happening behind closed doors now. >> the president's next stop is the uk for the long awaited visit to america's closest ally. he will have tea with the queen. what else? >> reporter: you know, he will get to have a wonderful almost state banquet dinner. that should be very much to his taste. the lenin palace

i2 of people can't even remember a life before angela merkel! 12 years in office, could stretch to 16 if she stays the course. and today that feels like a big if. thank you. david eades in berlin. rescue teams in northern thailand say they've moved closer to the spot in a flooded cave where they believe 12 boys and their football coach have been trapped for more than a week. there has been no contact with the group since it went to explore the tham luang caves, in the northern chiang rai region last saturday. divers are now advancing further underground because water levels are receding. 0ur south east asia correspondent jonathan head sent us this update from the scene. there has been no contact with them in the early stages when navy divers we re in the early stages when navy divers were able to advance quite far, before heavy rain pushed the water levels up again and drove them back. handprints were seen on the walls, bicycles were still locked in this direction, if we get the cameraman to point in that way, where you see the soldiers walking

so chairman, and might be willing to take angela merkel with him. so you think that it is transparent, that people are aware that this is about internal politics rather than a fight for the leadership of the country? on a factual basis, this cannot be about migration. angela merkel brought back a lot of goodies from the eu summit and the csu were initially happy about that, but it has totally derailed now since this basic struggle is back. it is not about pushing refugees back to the border or not, it is about the person of angela merkel, the symbol of liberal politics in germany, whether the csu thinks she has to give way to give the party a better chance in its regional elections this coming fall, and horst seehofer, being the party chairman of the bavarian csu, is at the helm of the bavarian csu, is at the helm of this survivor strategy. do you think the country is now looking at a split, and if so what does that mean for german politics? this is what nobody in germany expects, because that would definitely shatter the party landscape. it would d

you are a very close ally of angela merkel, i wonder how you felt when you read this. "the people of germany are turning against their leadership as migration rocks the tenuous coalition, crime is way up," — we know that is not true, but he went on — "big mistake in allowing people in who have so strongly and violently changed their culture". what did you think when you read that tweet? i must say that that is just stupid. we have taken in eu half as many refugees as turkey has done. we have now per month 95% less migrants than in autumn 2015, incredible success story how to keep the numbers down. what we are doing at the moment northern africa but also the south, is to decrease it, to help these countries to go forward. that is, go to the root causes of migration. here, trump wanted to decrease the money for africa. again, if you don't mind me saying so. trump in his own way, nobody can accuse him of worrying too much about accuracy, but in his own particular way he is picking at a scab which is painful for germany because your coalition is again divided on migrat

angela merkel has signed off for the summer with an annual press conference in berlin. speaking after a roller coaster start to her fourth term, the german chancellor denied rumors that she would step down before the end of the current parliament. she tackled major issues confronting her fragile coalition, not least how to deal with donald trump's america from and how to solve europe's migration crisis. reporter: angelu angela merkel set aside 1.5 hours to talk to the media before her official summer holidays began. it has been a turbulent political year for the chancellor, and many wonder if it would spell her downfall. many of the questions posed by the press centered on donald trump and whether merkel could understand why he singled out germany for criticism. chancellor merkel: i took note of it. i did not look for motivating factors. reporter: merkel said she would rather deal with the issue rationally. trump's outrage at germany's trade surplus with the u.s. solely concerned trading goods, she said. chancellor merkel: if we add services to that and the profits tran

party will hold another meeting with chancellor angela merkel c.d.u. later today in a last ditch attempt for the conservative alliance to mend fences today harper has the choice to resign after a rift with america over migration policy but there is no sign of compromise from christian democrats who say they back home policy of c.b.s. european solution to the migration crisis.

party could be stepping down as a result of a disagreement with chancellor angela merkel over her migration policies the hope for has been saying the migration measures put forth by the chancellor after she struck a deal with the european union do not adequately accomplish what he is seeking. for also has said he wants to germany to turn away some asylum seekers at the country's borders but the chancellor has insisted on europe wide solutions now melinda could you perhaps take us back to what exactly merkel was able to agree on with her european partners at the summit in brussels that we're hearing is not satisfactory for as a whole for what is he rejecting exactly. well the first thing that they were able to agree on is something that also angle americans conservatives and mr c. ho for is very young party the c.s.u. do agree on namely a tightening of the external borders of europe both by creating new centers offshore in mostly northern african countries that would be so-called centers of disembarkation that means that people who attempted to go to the european union via . the sea would th

but the pushback we've heard from angela merkel is this. you cannot just measure a country's financial contribution. germany commits long-term troops, it commits trips to afghanista afghanistan. we heard from the european council president yesterday saying 870 european men and women, service members, have lost their lives in afghanistan. so these are the lines we ear likely to hear or president trump may hear from angela merkel pushing back about this idea that it's about dollars and scents that there is another level. >> collective defense and coming to the aid of one of our allies that article five lays out which is what our nato allies did after 9/11. stay with me. let me bring in lieutenant general mark hertling and political and national security analyst david sanger. let's listen to this exchange back and forth between president trump and jan stolenbeens stolt the breakfast. >> despite our differences we have been able to unite around our past to protect and defend each other. we are stronger together. two world wars and the cold war

angela merkel still unchallenged. no rivals. government isrman not as weak as we thought it would be. this should allow her to stay in office for another three years. however, there is a regional election in bavaria. you mentioned a little bit earlier on, the spd. they have broadly signed up for this. which questions do they want answered? they were against, in theory, some of the things that have been agreed. inia: this was an issue back 2015. liken socialist do not this idea of a transit holding center for migrants. how long can you hold people? under what conditions? that's what we're waiting to hear. anything they do will have an impact on merkel but i do want to point out a poll came out and germans don't want any more political drama. people do not think a germany and angela merkel are to blame for the problem, they think it's a much different issue. the spd has no incentive to try to destabilize merkel any longer. guy: thank you very much, indeed. . today are joining us. join us.tadeo at the, we take a look stocks of a mo

that's the big sticking point with angela merkel at the moment. that may be resolved later in the day because there has to bea later in the day because there has to be a further meeting between these two parties, but, as i say, still shrouded in uncertainty. andrew plant as the background for you. he is part of chancellor merkel‘s coalition government, but has become one of her loudest critics too. now horst seehofer, leader of the christian social union party, and germany's interior minister, has offered to resign over mrs merkel‘s approach to migration. at a summit in brussels last week, an agreement was made among eu leaders to share migrants more evenly across the european union and build new reception centres too. the talks were prompted by italy and malta turning away rescue boats that had picked up migrants crossing to europe from north africa. angela merkel‘s ideas for building migrant processing centres were already a much harder stance to her previous opendoor approach, but the proposals hammered out in brussels proved a tougher se

he is seen as the bad cop versus angela merkel's good cop. butjeremy hunt is appealing to both to help britain in the event of a no deal. but as camilla was saying, the idea of negotiating hasjust camilla was saying, the idea of negotiating has just been camilla was saying, the idea of negotiating hasjust been very poor from been all along, it is basically we have been in a poor position than the eu. but we are acting as if we have this amazing ball in our court. i'm always suspicious when they say the prime ministers cutting short a holiday. i think there will always be plans, but it is adding to the sense of drama that she is pulling out all the stops, she has a new brexit secretary that has been slightly deputized. so she is looking like she is taking control. i think looking like she is taking control. ithinka looking like she is taking control. i think a lot of that will be optics. let's move onto the a warning over no—deal brexit trucks logjam. jane, this is a warning from dover district council, a brexit impact report that they have

down 2.5%.rket's angela merkel in focus as well. we would talk about coalition talks in more detail. suggesting that she will survive. the dow off by some .6%. crude at $74 a barrel. tweeted that he had an agreement with the saudi's. 2 million barrel increase. david: not so much. there are plenty for investors to pay attention to. durable goods and factory numbers tomorrow. thursday, the fed releases minutes. friday is the big one. it's job stay with expectations mayhe u.s. added jobs in and the u.s. is scheduled to enforce tariffs on additional $24 billion of chinese imports. mexico, the big election overnight. let's take a look at the peso. it's sort of interesting what happened. initially, it strengthened, and then, it weakened again. >> we got a little relief in the and as part of broad dollars -- dollar strength, it took off. i'm kind of wondering if this is in andof trends coming it looks like the coalition might have control of both the lower and upper house so if he wants to and has the room to, there's no real check on him

it was a clear challenge to angela merkel. at the end, we saw was a lot of concessions from angela merkel to stay in power and keep the christian democrats in power. they did not want a party split. major concessions. the tension is the german government is going to put at the border with austria, creating tensions with the austrian government. principalkel said the of the free movement of people is a redline, now it looks like she is blurring her own redline. guy: what about the other german parties? these two are not the only german parties. what do the other parties in the parliament think? >> that is right. thirdrman stp is the pillar of this coalition. we know angela merkel is going to meet with them today. she wants to hear what they have to say because they could pose a challenge to her government. you see how weak this chancellor is. in 2017, they said this idea of holding people in holding facilities is something they don't like. they don't like the humanitarian angle. will they try to get a different deal with merkel

merkel said they are and as angela merkel said they are an independent country and can make their own decisions about that. again repeating that 2% full stops and he seems to be sticking to that message. and it's going to tell you, england have scored in the world cup in the first seven minutes. more on that in just in the first seven minutes. more on that injust a in the first seven minutes. more on that in just a second. joining me now in the studio is former us secretary of defense william cohen. i know will be rooting for england! so donald trump could've gone to brussels and said look what i have achieved, i have got everyone to increase their spending, which he has, by being tough on nato members but instead had this extraordinary spectacle of the american president effectively saying what good is this alliance? he has perfected i think the art of the insult, not the art of the deal and his diplomacy is by humiliation, i think it is important to tell european allies who have not done enough, not meeting your obligation and we need this organisation, it remains vital. but instead

angela merkel had an interesting response to all of this. she, of course, reminded folks that she grew up in east germany. she said she knows what it's like to be captive to then, of course, the soviet union. so an interesting dinner on hand this evening as the president certainly setting the stage for more confrontation as he's done throughout the day here in brussels. >> a lot of tough talk already. jeff zeleny in brussels, thank you. >>> before we go any further, i want to fact check these claims from the president that the u.s. basically supports nato and the accusation that germany is beholden to russia. our chief national security correspondent jim sciutto is with us. let's start with the president demanding that other countries pay what he says would be their fair share and they pay it immediately. is the u.s. being treated unfairly? >> well, this battle within nato is not new. successive u.s. presidents have pushed european allies to pay more, to contribute more. and there is some basis to that argument. i'll give you an example. thi

and right now going after german chancellor angela merkel. who is seen as the last defender of the liberal democratic order along with justin trudeau who the president trashed on his way out of the g7 meeting. if he does those are are going to turn to screams in western europe. >> thank you so much. we'll check on you a little bit later on. and to that point what will the president expect after nato? let's check in with kyle perry when it comes to two fronts. >> reporter: listen, i think woo esaw some extraordinary comments from president trump given to the secretary general ofinate oe. lecturing the secretary general on economics. that's going to be headlines across europe. first the criticism of germany and the oil deal with russia. the nord stream 2 what they're calling it here. this was a long negotiated agreement between germany and russia. it was done so while concan sidering the broader security imp ls. when it it comes to germany's defense spending, something we're knowing to hear consistently. germany would becausically need double t

angela merkel will be keen not to wea ken angela merkel will be keen not to weaken her coalition, though, and avoid new elections which some fear could embolden the far right in the country and lead to political instability both in germany and the rest of europe as a whole. andrew plant. my colleague david eads is in berlin and brings this update. every time you mention a problem with the coalition government here, the moment, the question is, is this the end of angela merkel. i don't think we are there just yet but it could be the end of a partnership between these parties, angela merkel ‘s party and the sister party based in bavaria in the south. they've been in union for almost 70 years. for many eclipses of the writing is on the wall, i'm joined by the deputy director of the german marshall fund. thank you forjoining us. the issueis fund. thank you forjoining us. the issue is immigration. the problem is one tiny aspect of the bigger picture. enough to sink that coalition government? it's certainly something that horst seehofer, the interior minister, has drawn a line in the sand, s

office issued angela merkel with a two week ultimatum that expired on the first of july sunday mr c. hoffa saying that he once had to find a european solution to the migrant crisis and now we're hearing that he feels he is left with no choice but to turn back migrants from germany's borders this of course flies in the face of the german chancellor's open door policy and she of course felt that she had found this european solution after a two day summit that was held thursday and friday in brussels there was an e.u. summit that if he now seems as if the interior minister would disagree. we are sure that we have the right to immediately send migrants back from the border was all that might open up we go and either we find a solution so that you never can be your own people feel that we are guided by the values and that we advocate multilateralism and not you know literally or no one will believe in our values which have made us all strands if mr c. hoffer in fact resigns this will see a break up of the seventy year alliance between his christian social union and angela merkel's party w

he feels he has got enough from angela merkel to stay. it is over the question of immigration and the top of policy and one specific point. with me is the chief europe correspondent for politico. what has he got? he got a commitment from macro or two to set up commitment from macro or two to set up refugee camps in transit zones on the austrian border. —— merkel. what that means is, it should allow the germans to accelerate deportations of people who have been registered as refugees in other eu countries. this is not exactly what horst seehoffer was looking for but it's a compromise, showing voters that they are taking a hard line. it is not going to be about a lot of people? at the moment, not about a lot of people because the numbers of refugees coming into germany has falle n refugees coming into germany has fallen precipitously over the last few years so we fallen precipitously over the last few years so we are now fallen precipitously over the last few years so we are now down to levels that are below where we are —— where we

allies that's the party of angela merkel remember all this revolves around the c.s.u. wanting better to control the borders of germany and to be able to turn migrants back from the borders angela merkel's party has said that it doesn't really want to do that unilaterally that it would be dangerous it would in danger the e.u. wide solution that angle america arrived at in brussels with other member states last week at point here is the future of the coalition does the c.s.u. want to stay in government and exempt most of what it wanted or does it want to pursue the philosophical purity of its position and risk falling out of government those are the questions that will need to be answered on monday in order for this scenario to play itself out to a final outcome the u.s. envoy to the philippines has met north korean officials in the demilitarized zone that's according to south korean media is laying the groundwork for an upcoming visit to the north by u.s. secretary of state mike pompei o last month the united states and north korea agreed to pursue the denuclearization

caroline: meanwhile you said previously that angela merkel is just more how important is angela merkel and how strong can she be when she has these differing devices -- divisive issues. she is central to anything happening in europe alongside president macron and other european leaders. she is also weaker, she's got a weaker coalition, her closest ally from bavaria is -- against are very her alleged center party is uncomfortable with some of the decisions made. you've a week and chancellor who clearly has a tense relationship with the u.s. leadership. this means nato politically a least is going to be in a state crises-moving political and european leaders are going to hope for the better in 2020 and if not, in 2024. vonnie: this is a real pivotal point and it feels like something needs to be done pretty urgently. angela merkel on the defensive saying germany is the second-largest provider of troops for nato operations and that the largest part of military capacity is offered to help nato so she's trying to prove both in terms of burden sharing and in terms of relationships germany is

also coming up german chancellor angela merkel defends a controversial deal aimed at reducing illegal immigration refugee groups are calling her inhumane and incorruptible. plus england to break their world cup of curse. that was the moment that the three lions beat a long way out in a dramatic penalty shootout to claim the last place in the quarter final it was the first time that they have won a world cup shootout. i'm sorry kelly welcome to the program. one of the divers who found the twelve boys and their coach trapped in a cave in thailand has told d.w. that freeing them will be quote a very dangerous feat he seemed to rule out the possibility of having the boys swim and dive their way out of the cave saying that it was too treacherous rescuers are exploring a number of options to bring the group to safety more on that in just a moment but first this report woods with some new video of these voice. i'm in good health says each boy after introducing himself by his nickname despite being filmed in the depths of the cave the group seems in high spirits they've received medical treat

wants to go it alone and potentially blow up its union with angela merkel c.d.u. party will they risk going that far that is the question as chancellor merkel says she does agree with her sister party that migration must be reduced but they do disagree on how to do it do you think it might be enough to say we agree to disagree. well they agree to disagree for a very long time and the feeling certainly the german chancellor got after signing that coalition agreement is that they had a roadmap on how to deal with it at the track record of legislation in germany shows that anglo marco already tightened her migration policy partly pushed by a conservative system party but he evidently in bavaria the c.s.u. is being pushed by the far right if tea party which it has to contest against in those upcoming reached our elections and this of course is the big issue here how much of this is about political point scoring ahead of regional elections how much is the regional factor here and how much of it is political psychology my prognosis is that this won't go beyond the brink

angela merkel left alone. german interior minister and party leader of the c.s.u. the but very insisted party to merkel's c.d.u. was absent from the conservative parliamentary group meeting on monday germany's conservatives are falling apart at the seams but merkel's conservatives remain optimistic. i think whoever has good intentions will in the end find a compromise so i say is deputy party leader we also support our party to angela merkel because she has good arguments. which i will mention the dispute is about the details of germany's migration policy the bavarian c.s.u. party wants to turn away migrants who have already registered in another e.u. state or have already applied for asylum. the chancellor has always made it clear that this wouldn't be part of germany's migration policy something she reiterated once again to her own conservatives earlier today but the c.s.u. boss and german interior minister hostie hofer isn't about to back down quietly after a long meeting of his party delegates save over threatened in the early hours of monday to step down as in

office issued angela merkel with a two week ultimatum that expired on the first of july sunday mr c. hoffa saying that he once had to find a european solution to the migrant crisis and now we're hearing that he feels he is left with no choice but to turn back migrants from germany's borders this of course flies in the face of the german chancellor's open door policy and she of course felt that she had found this european solution after a two day summit that was held thursday and friday in brussels there was an e.u. summit but it's if he now seems as if the interior minister would disagree. we are sure that we have the right to immediately send migrants back from the border does or does not open up we go either refund or solutions so the generic and beyond people feel that we are guided by values and there to be advocate multilateralism and not union later alyson or no one will believe in our values which have made us all strong if mr c. hoffa in fact resigns this will see a break up of the seventy year alliance between his christian social union and angela merkel's party what it does

it's a problem has this been for angela merkel. well it's been a particularly serious problem because this because about this her party and have a very and sister party well they've been effectively wedded at the hip as it were for decades they govern germany for many decades they are a potent political force together in every general election they present one chancellor candidate and for these two parties since well more than thirteen years it's been angela merkel has been the person that they have put forward so the idea that she has had to fight tooth and nail to achieve the piece of paper this document demonstrates quite how serious this problem is it's almost unheard of for the for these two parties to bicker the way they have to and let's be clear about this also her interior minister who represents a party with forty six seats in parliament compared to her two hundred has in some ways been holding her hostage to the policy outcomes that he wants however she promised she would get an e.u. solution she promised she'd make bila

remember angela merkel... seems in bad taste. remember angela merkel. .. the seems in bad taste. remember angela merkel... the irish prime minister had also, i am not surprised he has gone. that brings us to the front page of the metro newspaper describing boris is dropping a bombshell. he let of bombs afternoon. that is one view this as afternoon. that is one view this as a statesman—like decision by somebody who practices the word is singing from the same hymn sheet yet the words stuck in his throat, as he puts it. or the other view is he looked at the criticism of him on sunday in the newspapers, we expected winston churchill and instead we got neville chamberlain saw his pride was hurt. what do you think? i think boris realise this could be a good moment for him. if he stayed, he looked weak. as much as he is not a strong politician, he does have a way with words.

donald trump versus angela merkel. the two just met face-to-face. the harsh comments on this pipeline, on germany being a captive to russia. where does this go from here? >> i think what we see playing out here is a fundamental question about american leadership and the alliance. for 70 years, past american presidents, both parties, have seen nato summits as an opportunity to demonstrate unity and solidarity and american leadership, bringing the alliance together. despite internal differences, which were dealt with behind doors, privately and discreetly. now, we have a different style of leadership. one, i'm afraid, features disruption and divisions, maybe pitting one ally against another, seeking leverage. this will not go over well in brussels. >> what's interesting, ambassador, is we've heard from angela merkel about this. in german, so i'll paraphrase. hey, i grew up for a time behind the iron curtain. i know about being controlled by russia. this ain't it. she looks forward to controversial discussions. is this relationship fixable today, do yo

he spoke specifically again about chancellor angela merkel. >> and i said, you know, angela? i can't guarantee it, but we're protecting you and it means a lot more to you than protecting us because i don't know how much protection we get by protecting you. and then they go out and they make a gas deal, oil and gas from russia where they pay billions and billions of dollars to russia, okay. so they want to protect against russia, yet they pay billions of dollars to russia and we're the schmucks paying for the whole thing. >> okay. let me take the first bit first. president trump is saying i don't know what we, the united states, get out of essentially protecting you, germany, you, europe. could you answer that first? what's in it for the u.s.? >> of course, yes. two points. the first one, once in our common history of nato, almost 17 years of nato now, article 5 collective defense has been triggered and that was with the horrible terrorist attack at 9/11. we all stood side by side with our american friends in afghanistan, fighting the terrorists. and we're still there. so this

what are the implications for angela merkel? carol: what are the implications more broadly for the european union? >> merkel is on the back foot at the moment and essentially over her liberal policy. but specifically on migration. now, merkel has a coalition government and one of the three parties in the coalition, her bavarian sister party, is kicking up against her policy. bavaria is on the front line of the migrants who traveled north from the mediterranean sea up through europe and into the richer countries, mainly germany and sweden. and they say she's essentially opening the border to too many people, and they want to send these people back. carol: this is a fascinating story because we are seeing this globally, this wave of nativism, people pushing back and not allowing immigrants in. you talk about the important role of germany, especially when it comes to the european unification. this is a bigger deal. we've been worried about italy. but as i think your story says, maybe the black swan is germany. alan: germany is the
