[000:00:00;00] the visit dw news live in from berlin. little bit zalinski tonight is a man on a mission. the president of ukraine arrived at the united states on a tour, a bit, securing funding for his country's war effort against russia. also coming up tonight that you've been climbing, fox, and overtime, and on the verge of failure at issue a dramatic phase out of fossil fuels to mitigate climate change. some countries say yes, others and say, you know, and don't tell us returning the power in poland to be prime minister,
7:01 pm
promising stronger ties with an e. u and more support for ukraine. the break up is good to have you with us. you. courtney, president. bottom is zalinski has just told us senators that his country can win the war against russia if it gets more aid from america. so if you met with lawmakers in the us capital to push for a new, a package for ukraine and time is running out. this is the final week before congressman go home for the holidays. republicans have been blocking a $110000000000.00 package for both ukraine and israel. the white house, it says current funds for ukraine will run out by the end of the year. so lensky held talks with the speaker of the house, mike johnson, who reassured him that the republicans were behind ukraine, just had
7:02 pm
a good meeting with press, then so lensky, i reiterated to him that we stand with him and against hooton's, brutal invasion of the american people stand for freedom and they are on the right side of this fight. i have asked the white house since the day that i was handed to gabble, a speaker for clarity. we need a clear articulation of the strategy to allow ukraine to win, and thus far their responses have been insufficient. they have not provided us the clarity and the detail that we requested over and over since literally 24 hours after i was handed, the gamble speaker, the house. since the positive words, they're coming from speakers to help us go over to washington. now my colleague janelle demario is following this story. janelle zalinski arrived to a much pessimistic, much more pessimistic mood compared to when he swooped in last winter for a hero's welcome in washington. is there any sign that he has a swede,
7:03 pm
republicans to get the funding that he says his country needs steps of the mood definitely watched more differently this time around, even though by most accounts that closed door meeting between us lawmakers and zalinski wasn't seeing us particularly hostile republicans were already telegraphing ahead of this meeting that there was very little of that zelinski could say that would move them from wanting to see a u. s. mexico, a board or deal a tighter board or a deal agreed before any more ukraine aid could be released. now of course, so this means that republicans are essentially using ukraine aid as a bargaining chip in order to achieve domestic policy goals around immigration, around, around the border around asylum policy. of course, these are obviously very important to republican avoiding issues ahead of an
7:04 pm
election year and 2024. but a lot of these proposals, democrats have bolted, calling the maximum list and draconian and valencia coming to washington hasn't really done that much to change that dynamic. and as you say, brand, they are running out of time to agree a deal. they have 2 more days. lawmakers go home for the holidays on thursday. yeah, that's exactly right. and we know that to lensky boss will be meeting with president by the janelle, i'm wondering what time that he was president. do other than, you know, offer some kind words. i mean, he doesn't control the 1st strings, doesn't, as well as the landscape sports is here on biden's invitation. the idea being that the landscape is the best advocate for ukraine, that the american public and american law makers could benefit a bit from the to the landscape messaging magic. now of course, so zalinski is having a politician and no, we shouldn't say anything on the board or what he can do is continue want to
7:05 pm
highlight to the aid that he needs help quickly. he needs to get it and the risks of not getting that aid. so earlier he was talking about how keith is a protecting the west of from putin's a potentially further expansion is done visions. now by then, of course, is his staunch us ally here in washington. a what a bite and might be able to do in negotiations with lawmakers, could spell the difference for the lens key, but perhaps not soon enough. all right, dw, is janelle, to belong in washington with the latest. tonight's, janelle, as always, thank you. i went out to do by where negotiators at the carpet, 28 climate, so many have gone into overtime trying to avert failure. some countries including germany, the us and the u. k. are refusing to sign up to the latest draft deal or a reference to phasing out fossil fuels was taken out. the summits host, the united arab emirates,
7:06 pm
have said that they will now try again in the hope of finding a consensus, dw, correspondingly only if on how much time is following this conference in due by force i asked earlier. is it a final declaration really within reach? well, that's the question on everybody's mind here. obviously to, you know, last nights and for us and service us during this. it's been a pretty long night and a pretty long day of, of waiting and for the negotiate is behind closed doors. and it has been a very long night and a very long day off negotiating, trying to find compromises, trying to find the, to build bridges. and, you know, the presidency is in talks with this sort of difference, a country groups we're hearing a lot of rumors and the, the stakes are pretty high. the pressure is on. i mean, we're heard some of those statements. they are ministers coming out. there is a pretty stark stand off between, you know,
7:07 pm
those countries like oil producing countries like saudi arabia. i'm calling for for know language of pays out to be included in the draft text. and then especially time in front of the country, small island states and the u. i'm calling for, you know, to add a lot more urgency to the text and calling for song, this language on fossil fuel phase out. and so it's really up to the presidency now to build those ridges to drive to new texts we are expecting. and also there we're hearing a lot of different rooms, but we are expecting a new text to drop at some point during the night, we've just heard that apparently there is going to be a planner you scheduled for tomorrow morning. and so this cop you mentioned it is already an overtime. everybody's pretty exhausted. the pressure is on the stakes are high. so that was the only from how much time they are reporting from the by is really officials say that they are increasing security screening of 8 deliveries bound for gaza to enable more supplies to enter the territory. the crm show long
7:08 pm
check point will not reopen, but it will be used to check deliveries before they are sent through the roof of border crossing, which connects egypt and gauze, up to egyptian security sources. said inspections will begin on tuesday under a new deal between israel. egypt and the united states are senior international correspondent funding. the chart is in jerusalem and she told us more about the delivery screening and what it could mean for goss. they're talking about inspections and not to be confused with the cam shown crossing to be open, which is closed since october. the has actually before that hundreds of trucks could get in and get out and deliver much needed 8 hundreds of trucks i'm seeing. and right now the situation is that the trucks can only get through their off full body crossing, but really dropping the bucket in the current situation with the ongoing rule. so having said that, an additional inspection, a facility, basically there at the junction between e's real and gaza,
7:09 pm
and egypt and gaza may stop there. and additionally, inspection that is much needed and it seemed read as a ray of hope because of that would push that possibly mean to alleviate the pressure on i got to traffic that really hundreds of trucks to a mile away from the roof for border crossing. and that would mean that move trucks could possibly get the dispute and it to go through rough for border crossing, but at least as an additional inspection and the hundreds of thousands of people really in gaza, desperately waiting for food for medicine, food, shelter, and for protection. in fact, for you and has already said that with the ongoing move is less and less supply available, which means that the trucks that are going in the risk of being attacked simply by desperate citizens. we have all seen those pictures of people trying to come through the rubble underneath us. bake to restore that was attacked, trying to get bread parents skipping meals in order to make sure that the children
7:10 pm
are getting sued. so the situation is really desperate. as a result that crossing, even though it's not opening, but the fact that more inspection may be possible as a result is as i say, a ray of hope to get at least a bit of me. a to there was a senior international correspondent public char. they're reporting from jerusalem . let's take a look now. some of the other stories making headlines this. our pakistan's army says at least 23 soldiers have been killed in a terror attack in the north west of the country. i think to say is this militants rammed a truck full of explosives into a police station and then launched a mortar attack. the army had been using the police station as a base camp. a former japanese soldier, rena goodoy has won her battle for justice and a landmark sexual assault case. earlier, a court found 3 of her former colleagues guilty with each receiving 2 year suspended jail sentences. the case had been dropped, but the authorities were forced to reopen it. following an online campaign by
