the, the, this, the dw news lie that from berlin tonight, america's top diplomat into tar shuttle diplomacy in search of peace. anthony blinking told in crisis talks of the situation of guns and as he works to secure an extended ceasefire between israel and tomas, also coming up to 9 for donald trump, a possible presidential privilege didn't know us appeals court rules. the former president has no immunity against the charges that he tried to overturn is 2020 election defeat. also protest by farmers forcing the european union to watered down the blueprint of agricultural reforms and britons king charles was seen in public

for the 1st time since his diagnosis with cancer. his son harry arriving in the u. k. today to see his fault, the library golf is good to have you. with this on this tuesday, us secretary of state anthony blinking is pressing your head with a diplomatic tour of the middle east. in the hope of securing a ceasefire in garza lincoln and has been meeting with the egyptian president of the cc in cairo, america's top diplomat says that he is hoping for an enduring and to the war. a proposal to pause the fighting would include a deal to release hostages were captured by him off during the october 7th. the terror attacks and despite the talk is real is pushing on, but it's offensive in gaza. advancing towards rafa in the south. prime minister benjamin netanyahu says that he will continue the war until her mazda is destroyed

. meanwhile, more than a 1000000 displays, palestinians are sheltering in the area. what journalists can rebuild, or holly in cairo, told us more about the deal that's currently on the table. what's the on the table is what was the goal shades? it's already in paris between the is we're in is the americans gotta enter egypt options. it says some kind of temporary ceasefire and then a face exchange of hostages and prints this, of course, the, this one big sticking point is we don't have to get an efficient answer from us to this proposal. we know that how much and 6 to be tricky because they have the money is an end of the wall and then the exchange of prisoners. so and they want some kind of guarantee that there is no the temporary ceasefire. but there is

the find the end of the war and then the exchange of prisoners. that is the main sticking point. that as you go to your in your report is read about prime minister . but in any way that y'all is so saying that he will move on until i have the victory against how much i'm telling how much is destroyed, difficult to see how much is giving up. it's a cost of just the only leverage they have right now. as to what is rain and why if i wanted to bring any means and always announcing that he is out there to destroy the very same people he's negotiating was right now in director. and that was journalist or e mail. good. how are you here in cairo? i'm doing now by get of steinberg. he's the middle east expert at the german institute for international and security affairs here in berlin gate. i was gonna see you again. this is anthony blinking 5th, a trip to the middle east since the october 7th. a most terror attacks and talk to me about his chances of success this time compared to the previous times. as

i am a little bit pessimistic of for the same reasons that were quoted by cutting myself honey, a rip already these riley's one don't want an extended seas class and 3 because they want to continue fighting to come us in the gaza strip from the other hand from us once and in the to the war. that's nothing that's easy or at least can accept. it would already be a major success if some, if some of the hostages would be freed for some kind of says some kind of ceasefire . but uh, i have no idea how far to negotiations have gone already. these negotiations we understand are moving now into could tar blinking. we'll be meeting with officials there. do you think that that will facilitate the least the

possibility of a potential deal? oh yeah. what is the place to go to the if it's only for the reason that the hum us leadership suits over there. and these are the people who will decide whether uh hostages will be freed or not where the from us will give up. but it's a, it's the mando ending, the war for good. and the category government does have some influence on how much simply because it hosts host them and car time. i think that the bring can visit to cut off is a lot more important than the one to egypt, for example, to say this or do you radio in this regard. and do you think that he can successfully exert pressure lobby, the guitar ease, to push him off in the direction he wants to see them go in as

well as us i, i think that the categories always uh they listen very carefully to what the american government tells them, but in the end it's a, it's a sovereign decision by a, by hum us. they will have to decide whether they are ready to give out hostages for an extended ceasefire or not. i do not see, i do not see these rarely government ending this war for, for good. and at the same time, i do not see how much giving a call is. it's hostages. they are, in fact life insurance, sports, all the rest of its leadership in the sort of southern got the street. they come to give up on that. and most of the considering all of that when blinking the goes on to israel and meets with this really prime minister benjamin netanyahu. what leverage does he have any? why can he do to get nothing yahoo to move this?

what you radically, he has leverage simply because of the united states is the most important ally and in tech for types of uh, i'll face around at the same time. we have seen seen time and again for, for the more than 3 months now that the american influence, the influence of the binding that ministration on his role is limited. israel has not changed it's behavior and because of cause a strip to uh and uh secondly, it has not um, it has not listened to us the minds to develop a vision for the gaza strip off to this floor has ended the apart from some kind, some kind of these rarely occupation. so i do believe that that the american influence beacons influence on this part of the government is very limited and it is limited to then who maybe has

a stronger hand on the or does anyone have the power to influence benjamin netanyahu? enough to change his mind. i think nobody, nobody has. uh the, uh, is there any population degrees within that time yahoo government that this war shouldn't and the before, how much is done with? and that's part of the reason why, you mean nothing. yahoo has has been so adamant in his rejection off the off american demands. if it is not the us to that is accepting influence on benefits on yahoo government. there is nobody here who can you know, steinberg with the german institute for international insecurity affairs. you know, as always, we appreciate your time and your analysis. thank you. i think it's a us federal appeals court has ruled that former us president donald trump does not

have immunity from charges that he plodded to overturn his 2020 election defeat of judges rejected trumps claim that he could not be prosecuted because of the obligations relate to his presidential responsibilities, any possible case, and effectively been frozen while the court consider the arguments no trumpet. says he plans to appeal this decision. we wanna go down to washington, our correspondent janelle dom allowing is on this story for is. janelle reminded me again what the basis for trump's claim of immunity was as well. basically, his defense centered around him not being immune a for a b and even for being prosecuted from acts committed while he was president. now this is of course, so no said not the 3 judge panel on this d. c. federal district appeals court has now soundly rejected in a 57 page ruling. we pulled this out of that ruling. the paddle wrote for the

purpose of this criminal case, former president, trump has become citizens, citizen, trump, with all of the defences of any other criminal defendant. but any executive community that may have protected him while he served as president no longer protects them against his prosecutors. and so, in addition to that, despite arguing that he should have the fact of immunity, his lawyers also try to sort of double jeopardy defense. this idea that somebody accused cannot stand trial twice for essentially the same crime. now they argue with that because trump already faced impeachment in the house of representatives for trying to reverse the result of the 2020 election but was not convicted by the senate. but essentially, he already had his day in court and he doesn't need another. now, of course, we know that impeachment proceedings are political proceedings and not criminal proceedings. as thoughts of this argument did not count in the way that tom's

lawyers wanted. we also already heard from the trunk campaign. in response to this ruling, this from campaign spokesman is even strong prosecuting a president for official acts violates the constitution and threatens the bedrock of our republic. president trump respectfully disagrees with the dc circuits decision and will appeal it in order to safe guard the presidency and the constitution. so that's where they stand on that. so what's gonna happen next in the me is going to appeal is, is there a guarantee that the supreme court will, will hear this case? i mean, do we know what will happen eventually as well as we heard their trump is expected to appeal what is on what is unclear at the moment is whether he will exercise this judgment of bringing up this option of bringing it to the full dc circuit. for review, he may do that, or he may appeal to the supreme court directly. now, if he's going to appeal to the supreme court directly, he has until monday, february 12 to do that. so that is a very quick turn around that is just in

a matter of days. now, if the supreme court does agree to hear the case, however, then really a lot is writing on how much they will be able to get done before the general election in november. because we know that citizen trump, of course, is also likely republican presidential, nominee trump, he has every incentive to see this trial delayed, to see all this potential trials move till past the election and election that he might potentially win. in which case, you might also ask about his department of justice to junk the case. he may even potentially part in himself. so a lot is going to depend on whether the supreme court decide to hear this case and what happens from that, or yeah, still a lot of and answer questions that you're sure, janelle, in washington, thank you. this or at least get you up to speed. now some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world, at least 11 people who have died in

a fire at a fireworks factory in central india authorities in hard to in the, let's see, a product should stayed say at least another 150 people were injured in the blast. rescue crews are racing to find potential survivors. 6 people, including 3 police officers, have been wounded at a shooting outside the court house. it is temple, a man, and a woman opened fire at a security check point before being shot dead by police turkey's interior minister said that they belonged to a luck this militant great. the united states has said that it is disappointed that hunger res ruling party, blocked a vote on sweden's bid to join nato, and gary and prime minister, victoria bon and his feed us party have been stalling stock homes bid ever since 20 . 22. agree is the only nato country that has not ratified sweden's membership in data control. the workers union has dropped a key part of its 2040 proposal requiring agricultural emissions to be cut by 30

percent. it's a big deal. the move comes as spanish farmers stage protests across the country as you see right there using tractors to block roads in some areas. they're joining farmers in germany, france, and other european countries who have held similar approaches in recent weeks. farmers are angry about rising cost, high levels of bureaucracy and competition from non e u country. the farmers are not happy to talk about that. i'm joined here by my colleague, beatrice christophe are open dw environment. be just as those talked about what the you did, did they, did they pull back because of the anger of the farmers? well, we can see exactly if that was the reason, but you know, we can put $2.00 and $2.00 together. if we look at the clinicals overall that they announced today the, you know, interim target for 2040 is that they want to reduce their emissions by 90 percent compared to and 1990. that's a really,

really emissions target. but then we have agriculture, which is a sector that you know, and it's more than 10 percent more than 10 percent of the use emissions are come from agriculture alone. and then we're not even going to mention that in these and vicious targets. so it is definitely a find that is, you know, there is a lot of social push back to some of these measures. it is a challenge for the you to kind of balance the measures and make them palatable, palatable for every sector. and most importantly, to provide incentives to get everyone on board and to get everyone to participate. i think, i think when we talk about reducing our c o 2 footprint new and i know that and you know, we, if we write our bike instead of joining a car, for example, this easiest. but what about for farmers in the agricultural sector? what, what are the challenges of reducing emissions? the challenge really is the way that we've been doing agriculture for the past decades. and that is a system that really incentivizes raising down massive parts of nature. you know, mass of carbon sinks also that, you know, absorb lots of c o 2 to make space for huge crops,

huge amount of cultures. and that also gets subsidized. you know, the more you produce, the more money you get, that's a financial incentive, which is a huge chunk of the opinions budget, right? the exact subsidies are farmers. absolutely. and so really what we need to do here are the big challenges completely rethinking that way. we do agriculture and thinking of ways to, you know, get financial incentives to people who don't raise on nature, who like conservative, maybe of farmers who think of drought resisting crops, heat resistant cross waves of you know, incentivizing behavior. that kind of keeps the new reality. we have in mind and beyond agriculture, melissa can be a tire european union. how is it doing in terms of meeting the needs emissions targets? it's actually not meeting its targets right now. so, you know, 2040 the seeing the target that was announced that was an interim target. we have another interim target for 2030, which is a reduction of 55 percent. the way it's looking right now. we're probably not going

to meet up and we're probably around 51 percent. of course, there are some in, you know, certain countries that in some sectors are doing good things. and here in germany, more than half of the electricity came for new from renewables. that's great, but really if we look up the whole block, there is some agriculture, a still big issue. there is not many changes. their road transferred is still an issue. so really the center i'm target is kind of giving us no reason to double down and to try harder. would you say that these new e u climate targets or are they realistic? the, you know, scientists have not only felt that they are realistic. they have said that they're absolutely necessary, but no one said that this was going to be easy. of course, it requires a massive overall of how we do business, how we grow food, our infrastructure. but we can't really look at this as a cost to us. we have to because there is no future in which we can continue business as usual, without any consequences. we have to see this as an investment into a livable future. yeah. yeah. and it's

a britain that everyone shares and i guess to the trick there is making you feel like it's an as being shared equally that's, that's tough to do for the politicians. make sure the interest is good. have you in the studio? thank you. thank you. alright. storms have lashed in california with the original rain that has brought severe flooding in land. slides following trees have killed 3 people in the north of the states. hundreds of thousands are without power and extreme weather. warnings are in force. a record breaking rain full has sent mud tearing down hillsides. los angeles, the national weather service says that some of the west as to whether the california has seen nearly a 150 years. residents of the 2nd most populated area in the us of facing road swamped with volta. it's the 2nd time within a matter of days, the atmosphere at river has brought huge amounts of moisture. northwood from the

woman attitudes to the state. officials say so much. rain has full and so quickly the ground simply can't take any more in with the swell being so saturated. obviously it, it gets to a point where you just cannot absorb it anymore. and that's when it starts to uh, to move. and then we have that shift in the, in the soil. some residents have been falls from the homes by the torrents of mazda were heard, it was raining, but we didn't know there was anything like that. we looked outside and there's a foot and a half of running water outside of the house, um and it sort steeping through the doors. and so they start, they start boarding up the doors and i'm like running equipment upstairs because we have studios downstairs and like we're trying to save things. the areas homeless community has been hit hard by the storm with many living incumbents, and particularly flood prone areas. rescue workers have helped bring some to safety

. while the heaviest rain has no pulse authorities urging people to remain cautious in the l. a area saying there was still a risk of yet more flooding on line slides to come. a jason camper donia is the nbc news radio bureau chief in los angeles. he gave us an update on the situation there . i can tell you that experts are saying that the ground is saturated right now, and that's the tipping point. so the water seats into the soil, it hits bad rock and that's in that soil just falls right off of the mountain side . so everybody's kind of breezing for the worst at the moment. uh, the rain continues to fall here in southern california and its expected default throughout the rest of today. and we'll finally start to break up later this afternoon, late this evening and into tomorrow. we should see showers on and off tomorrow, but that's not helping the situation right now. we really need the sun to come out

and start drying up some of these hill sides because everybody is just kind of bracing for more months. slides. var debris flows and, and the fear is that we're going to see what happened in mont. i see those several years ago where there was a massive mudslide and it wiped out half of the town. um and that was devastating. lot of damage and things like that. so everybody's just kind of on pins and needles right now. here in southern california that was jason capital, any of you reporting from los angeles years or more stories now that are making news around the world in brazil, rio de janeiro has declared a public health emergency over an outbreak of den, the fever. the city has registered more than $10000.00 cases since the start of the year. party goers are pouring in now for the annual carnival celebrations. inside government approaches have brought cities in haiti to a stand still. police fired tear gas and clashed with demonstrators demanding prime

minister ariel henri. step down, opponents lame him for a recent wave of violence that has displaced hundreds of thousands of feet. or a kenyan called leader is facing new charges and murdering a $191.00 children. paul mckenzie is alleged to have motivated more than $400.00 followers, to starve themselves to death. and dozens of other suspects are charged with multiple offences, including torch synagogues, a parliament has voted to postpone the next presidential election. the pope was due to be held this month, but it has now been pushed back until december. senegal has long been considered a model of democracy in west africa. the delay has sparked protests on the streets and in part of the send, the goal has ended on job to data cri, dozens of opposition, m. p. 's made a last ditch condemned to block ability leading elections,

but they were thrown out of the national assembly and the remaining long because voted to postpone the election to december. this extends the current, president's daniel by about 10 months. so i'm thinking really what brings us together here is quite simply unconstitutional, which is why i say that today we're, we to send an attempted constitutional cool it's it's clear that the governments a is to push for a postponement of the elections because they know their candidate will lose on president mackie saw announced the election dealer over the weekend. he said it was because of a dispute between the parliament and the constitution going over the rejection of canada. and the next, the scene offers announcement products and operate across the capital car. the government's and hundreds of security forces into the streets in

a shaw force for 75 years. and it probably doesn't matter if we are afraid. it's a question of whether we're willing to let the regime that's in place of advance its political agenda, whether we say no. and the answer from a simple is to say, no, we're going to go on and on and on and on. we don't know so ever since we want to prefer it unless you in the election. that's all we want. we don't want anything else. nothing. the protest soon escalated into violent flashes with police. sending all has long been considered a moderate democracy in west africa. but this latest crisis threatens to undermine that image. britons king charles has been seen in public for the 1st time since the world found out that he has cancer. the monarch left his london home clarence house in trouble by car to buckingham palace today. aid said to 75 year old king had started treatment and is positive about the outcome. his youngest son,
