Electronics giant samsung expects to post its highest operating profit in two years for the quarter just ended, thanks to a rebound in demand for its galaxy line of smartphones and a robust chip business.

Profit from core businesses is expected to be 12.3 billion won (9 billion euros) in the third quarter of 2020, the south korean company said on thursday. That was an increase of 58 percent year-on-year. Market leader’s estimates for memory chips, smartphones and televisions exceed market expectations.

In terms of sales, samsung expects an increase of 6.5 percent to 66 billion won. As usual, the group will only present more precise business figures at a later date.

She is trying to "really live up to her oath of office – to serve the good of the german people," merkel said on sunday in the ZDF program "berlin direkt.". "And that means serving the people of the country."She enjoys her job. So it goes without saying that she is in competition with the head of the SPD. She faced the people in the election campaign, they then had to vote on 24. September make your decision.

Schulz had previously accused merkel on ARD television of being "out of touch" and out of touch with the citizen.

At the same time, merkel made it clear that she intends to run again as party leader at the next CDU election party conference in 2018. During the question-and-answer game about future headlines at the end of the interview, moderator bettina schausten asked whether there could be any truth in the line that merkel would stand for saarland minister president annegret kramp-karrenbauer as her successor shortly before the next scheduled CDU election party conference at the end of 2020: the chancellor said that this question was not being asked today. "I hope i’ll continue to be party leader then. And then let’s see."

"We must become clearer and more binding in our objectives," said chancellor angela merkel (CDU) at the fifth integration summit in berlin on tuesday. The summit did not produce any tangible results. "We have to gradually move from model programs to permanent offers for improved integration," said merkel.

Opposition and associations reacted very critically. Instead of more and more new plans, concrete steps are needed, they warned. Around 16 million immigrants and their children live in germany.

The vice chairman of the alevi community in germany, ali ertan toprak, said that more progress had been made in integration policy in recent years than in previous decades. But efforts often focused on immigrant deficits or technical integration issues. "We must finally reach the hearts of the people. We must finally develop a sense of we," he said. With the right-wing terrorist murders of nine business owners of turkish and greek origin, many migrants had lost confidence. He called for more immigrants in the civil service – including in the police and schools.

The CSU wants to enter the 2018 state election year with a dual leadership of markus soder and horst seehofer. Former finance minister soder (50) is expected to replace seehofer as bavaria's minister president by spring at the latest, and then lead the CSU into the state elections in the fall.

Seehofer wants to run again for party chair at the CSU party conference in december. It is conceivable that he will join the federal cabinet if a government is formed in berlin.

Barely ten weeks after the bankruptcy in the federal elections, the crisis-ridden CSU thus ends a bitter power struggle. "The work is done, seehofer said on monday after a meeting of the party executive board that lasted almost three hours. At the party conference in innurnberg, the 68-year-old can now hope for a good result thanks to the compromise, even though this year he was responsible for the CSU's worst result ever in a federal election, 38.8 percent.
