during the amazing, the annual meeting of china as part of the national people's congress. so what does america i want to we and you are a pass to fear from the country. we roughly twice the economic growth of the united states. during a slow down, a rising superpower with a close to economic and political links with russia. the biggest, i'm in the world that a dubious human rights record. i'm feel guarantee invalid, and this is the day. the, i'm sure, the russian chinese cooperation, it has unlimited impossibilities and prospect. great. we were in china this summer . they like us to know, we like them to, to china and russia has set a new paradigm for major power relation to the university of medicine for china. itself, we are ready to co operate in all areas. we have no restrictions. we love china.

also on the day are you crying needs both soldiers, but few of civilians are willing to fight at the front. so the government is messing volunteers, set their own terms. it's difficult to imagine how horrible war is on the line unless you live in ukraine. i want to in cottage, my friends, who is my own example that you putting in people have to join army, otherwise we will lose our car. welcome to the day now has been said that china is relationship with united states will be one of the defining factors of the 21st century relations between the 2 superpowers have been strained in recent years of a host of issues including tre, human rights, a spying obligations and tie, one with time is national people's congress on the way the country's foreign minister suggested that the united states was trying to suppress his country as a startup. trouble in taiwan,

why he also defended beijing's close relationship with moscow during much of the cold war, sophia, russia and communist china were at all. but especially since the status of the crime war, the 2 well 3rd period neighbors have been foraging the foot ties. and now appear to be positioning themselves as geo political counter whites to the us. china is annual rubber style in parliament. the national people's congress likes to play up the countries rise on the international stage. as china plays a bigger global role, aging is try to match its growing economic strength with diplomatic muscle. one area, it's keen to play a bigger part in is media using international crises, including the ukraine war for the white. china says it holds a neutral stand and tries to play honest broker. it's refused to condemn the invasion. and europeans believe facing is using the conflict for its own purposes. economically. geo, politically. so vital is china to must go. now with the president,

vladimir putin has described beijing and russia's relationship as being without borders. what's yeah, the key thing about serious. lemme get to video. it's a love seat homeless. yeah. when the most new and you can, that's what china itself. we are ready to cooperate in all areas. we don't have them any restrictions would issue. and this also applies to mimicry, technology suspicion, as we think about the future in the future world. although about ensuring that security of putting more or less than the traditional buy and sell relations at the city. i'm, we're thinking about the future. i know them throughout the thinking about technology. who do me a technology? china has sent leeway. it's special envoy for your asian affairs to keep, to seek a political settlement to the war. so you can take over the past 2 years. we have never given up our efforts to promote basis. and we have never studied our efforts

to promote dogs. we, china has maintained in depth communications with other countries, including russia and ukraine, who's going to play a constructive role in dealing with the crisis. gigi and ping and vladimir putin are fervent admirers of each other. china is 12 point piece proposal issued in february 2023 to end. the war is seen as being very pro, moscow and trust in beijing has eroded further as europe steps up scrutiny of its trade with china, russian imports from china last year. we're up 65 percent on pre war levels. china is reportedly challenging key defense technology for the russian war effort through neighboring countries to get around sanctions. this week, the head of russia space agency said it's working on plants with china on ways to deliver uninstalled, a nuclear power plant on the moon by 2035 as

the relationship, but that borders extends into the stars. well, joe, list stuff. i've been crunch my invasion is following the national people's congress and we asked him, what chinese foreign minister, why game meant when he spoke of a new power type of major power relations? what do you say the city of china and russia now are at to quote unquote, historic friendship. and this friendship has created a new paradigm of country to country relations paradigm that is a base up on non alignment and non confrontation and not targeting any 3rd party. and i'm quoting here, of course you might argue how credible is such a statement given that this, in this very moment rushed as continually with its close gable against ukraine. but nevertheless, let me give you an explanation of what i think what one year and the chinese government means by the statement in the eyes of aging. the u. s. is pushing for

a cold war approach and um is continuing with a kind of a block building and it, china is pursuing a more multi pull out world order. of course, critics and also independent exports are arguing that actually what china, it's aiming for us that a heads up the heads of money of the west, the left by the us and will be replaced by the new world power at china. um, so i think that will be my interpretation of the one you statement from this morning. post weight and this is probably joined nato as a alliance, especially 2nd member, prime minister of chris to song a 100. the accession documents to us secretary state antony plan can in washington the settlement box and then to swedish policy of non alignment which had lasted more than 200 years. finland and sweden both applied to join may, so in may 2022 after russia in thank you to craig 5 minutes to have more to say about what motivated sweden's that choice. the security situation in our region

has not been the serious since the 2nd world war. russia would stay a serious threat to the us that the security for the policy of, of future. it was in this light that sweden applied to join the nato defense alliance to gain security, but also to provide security. we have unique capabilities to contribute online in the are at see how support the ukraine is a fundamental part of that ukraine is fighting bravely for its freedom, but they are also defending european freedom. meanwhile, housing training is continuing to edge its allies to boost um supplies after rush and made some advances on the front line. after months of what appeared to be style, nice in the wall, you cried with joe, his troops and the key eastern town of id. if caught in mid february,

boscoe says it has since taken control of several nearby villages. the price is working to reinforce its front lines that he's now trying to create is now trying a new approach to mobilize volunteers, dw sonya. finally car has been to meet some ukrainians. determined to help an appeal back to the not just to keep it, but to prepare for the buried we will, one sleep of ankles is an english teacher in keats. he's decided to join the ukrainian army. i have lost the meaning of my civil life. civilian people died like every day, and it's not a joke. once a month i wake up due due to explosions or flashing, besides bone being key. and in this case, learning programming or becoming a developer or grades in your family. it feels like you're

a law. i'm lying to myself. philip wants to become a soldier and who defend his country. instead of waiting for the drop notice that would assign him to a random military unit. felipe is dropping his own thoughts as bob forbids to boost recruitment, ukrainian controls that own military tools. she wants to serve in the dumping. she was the prestigious unit, only accept volunteer. it's offering jobs in the infantry and for meetings, but also in logistics and to know patients. often, initials, 5 day camp applicants can sign the contract and get advanced reading. at the time when you create needs more soldiers, fuel people are willing to fight. many do want to help the war effort, but not only on the front line,

the government has done to the market to help flood as lovely z hits a major online recruitment agency that works with the defense ministry. the advertise pauses of jobs with hundreds of military units, provide information and help with the recruitment process. here's different forces . around forces, navy air forces, div received over 70 full, causing applications so far for positions ranging from tribals mechanics, communication and i. t specialist engineers sort soldiers and even gulf treatments like the whole process is voluntary for society for people, it's very important to control the future as much as possible. people want to trust the future colemander. they want to know that it would be professional. but this flexible approach has not been enough to address the actual problem of boosting. coup numbers at the front. a lot is love admits the biggest vacancies in the

infantry and medical call back from you. the recruitment center for deep is happy with. how was it to be when he hopes to sign up soon and split on others to do the same? it's difficult to imagine how horrible war is on the line unless you leave in ukraine . i want to in cottage, my friends with my own example that you put in you and people have to join army, otherwise we will lose our country. phillips is being able to choose the unity trust was the reason people into a soft approach that helped him make a hard decision based on the meat on is a ministry on the list of kings college of london. and we are asked to whether they reluctance a more ukrainians to join the fight should be seen as an admission. they don't think that country can when we have seen the 2 premiums for volunteering at the

very beginning of the war. but now is this war for t cast, sat in and as some ukrainian military officials have pointed out, it's not just the believes that work cannot be won. it's also the fact that um, the president might be under plains association on the ground. meanings of people who haven't been drafted yet, do not feel the urgency to join in meaning they, they probably think, well, if i wait long enough, it will be over. and this kind of information dissemination, skews the picture and undermines the ukrainians will to join in because a sink or a portion of some things, everything is going just fine on the battlefield even without me. as the phone is riley officials as these country would welcome us plans to build a temporary post on the gauze coast to increase the flow

a few monetary aid into the gaza strip. it would involve maritime cars or to bring aid from the mediterranean island of cyprus. u. s. military would help set it up. but as far as a stress that us troops would not be able to drive than gaza, but residents that are in desperate need of food, clean water and medical aid, low. yeah, dw spoke with valleys like dean and john listed in tel aviv. he's been talking to people in gaza and we asked him whether they were what they were telling him about the situation. to say that the situation is very about is on the statement because of the lack of the human to be an a the, the food scare set the all over goes up. it's also telling me the price is, has chung for food and medicine, $500.00 to $600.00 for sense of what was. and one struggle is now 600 is riley shekel. so some people actually pay old, but they have in order to buy some food as for the family and also telling me that

people are literally killing each other. they are attacking each other with knives, wildfire the older flower and food them. that situation actually made some sort of, uh, gangs, all of regardless of groups of people, certainly to get up to steel as much as possible. all the comes in because there's not many for everyone. and to secure the food admitted simple their own group. but so also are silly that in order to have some money to buy uh for the future. so families that were suppressed by almost doing the rules we were talking about the cloud uh, judy from us as route was suppressed. but now, because the mazda is not print the back a game, each one does he go food and medicine for the own people, and the latest air drop that was from the a you sorry, from the you the, it was fine. that's what they're telling me. but the previous one, we're talking about the air drop from the us up on a partnership with a georgie,

and they didn't know why the air drop me was on the sea shore. this telling me that many of the 8 was actually carried by the wind inside the sea, us caustically, they're saying that the fish embassy got more of what we have gotten. so the situation is backed by a bad and decimal just it is, well, the memories of the how must her attacks of october, the 7th, a still role. yet, despite the ongoing hostilities, somebody's writing, these are returning to the community. is that what hardest hitting them is? attacks the village of narrative, hassan i is just a 100 meters from the border with gaza. it was the 1st community to be stalled on october, the 7th. the w, as tanya treva has been to this afternoon to meet some of the people who are returning to loves loan is back, feel good. she plans to rebuild her life entities, hospital and is ready community on the border wisconsin. buck on

say that when i caught me with night, they've done cloak twice before. i don't look twice before and you know, going to a greenhouse, but it's something that it's fading away as long as, as time goes by, but it will never go away completely. there's a october 7th, we will always stay positive. what happened? the timeline is toharma. she grows vegetables for seats. her greenhouse is where demons spiral coach hire from garza and travel from isabel's defense system. she's confident she can rebuild the green houses, other things. so the more difficult they manage to kill a 20 members of our community and young people, closer to families, conflict families with advantage and india. many, many of us. and we were in a situation that we, with our homes,

were invited by terrorist for 12 hours and, and, and they just do whatever they want. and what they wanted was to full bladder on the land. the new chief hospital was the 1st community to be attacked by him. us militants who preached the border from dallas on october 7th, a family was killed in this house. jewish fenelon hid for hours with the family and the safe from of her home. today she tells me she feels safe enough to come here. gauze us on the other side of the fence. in the distance, the palestinian town of be 10 noon lies in ruins. sometimes you can hear the boil being fort over there. so we can help them get rid of home us, but we, we are here waiting for them to do that. if the everyday prelim garza once with

better life, they need to make sure this how much we cannot control them and we're not control of the region anymore and then the future will come for them. and for us, as with rocket fire from garza has become rare, but most residents, us do not allow to return to the homes. fedloan is one of the few who stays overnight when you are a farmer or full time farmer. so for me to overcome what happened was to continue with as much as a family the life we had that me full full of hope because of all people came to where there are these rallies of each other out there is together united in times like this and this is my hope. remembering october 7th will always be important, she says, but she's now trying to focus on the future. the last month was the woman's february on record. according to your pain union climate

. scientists making it the 9th month in a row to break previous world line temperature records. here in europe, it's been the 2nd was winter since records begun with many skiing results struggling because of a lack of snow in the southern have hemisphere where it's summer. hans of south america also reported a rec for seats in february last spring, and called friedrich stories, the age they had of climate science and the global policy institute climate on a matrix. and he joins us from hearing by then welcome to date w. as i understand it, we by way i made a huge amount of say we have something of an excuse this time because temperatures have been boosted by this totally not non made el nino weather. in fact yes indeed. what we do see in this year and what shaping our temperature records is an extreme, the new events, which is a unexcused event. retirement system comes on top of climate change and suits and

the o actions have dimensions over the past 2 years. have made the effects of this or then you also what's. okay, so that's our excuse done. now let's look at some some, some figures of february's record breaking temperatures. what about one point? 77 celsius. warm with them. pre industrial times. this takes us, this takes a 12 month average as i understand it, to $1.00 degree celsius above pre industrial levels. the powers climate agreement was the whole time just below $1.00. so we've, we've broke of that. so does that mean that the deal is not broken in the old bets are off? no, not at all to paris at. tempt you a quart research to human made component of trends, interest to our best estimates are still around $1.00 debates and the new events that we talked about would boost climate over a couple of months or an individual year. way about this long term average spend we

talk about measuring progress to its temperature, go up to kind of give you heads up to parents agreement. we would take about 20 average of similar to identify the human made component of for me. and yes, it is a very stock will be signed the beginning of the clothes that are the ones that i have to be limited, the need to double down and i'll x. okay, so that power as a deal, that's a 20 year average. but what, but we are still not seeing quite well resolutely towards that sound we because as i understand it every month since june of last year, i see a new temperature record. yes indeed. i mean that's the considering part of the, of the climate prices. it's not something that's going to come into the products and features something that's very much here with us now and today. and to the big challenges that now we're seeing on top of this long term trend about top of the trend since the, our expos, into the product system via seeing fixed event in terms of natural variability. i

mean, do extreme see surface temperatures around the globe including in the atlantic, and these are driving in particular and this your record temperatures on top of this long term printed vehicle. all right, so as these different, why don't understand is why this is still happening. we know now we know most of us that are the few, nothing's on the fringes, but now we know what's doing it. and yet the graph is still going upwards. regardless of the warnings from people like yourself. regardless of, of they they, they got various conferences that are held and all the agreements that a race and everybody comes out saying this is a fantastic thing, but still, it takes upwards. why is that? well, if i had the answer to that question, i hope we would all do you one step closer to the solution. it is to take a look at climate challenge is really

a global societal transformational challenge. and the, and they are many elements to this. and why emissions? uh, uh, not going down at the pace that it said they should. yes, and this is important and we do know that we can and should peak global emissions as soon as possible and can a very stringent lead reduced. i'm still it just in case because the solutions that the needs to do so renewable energy is better. you select the vehicle since on also on the rise and provide us with the means to actually take over the class by says hopefully for good. and let's look at a, one of the big co pay. so carbon based fossil fuels that the big cobra in this picture. how seriously all the companies behind those carbon based fuel companies? how seriously are they taking their responsibilities to help us be best a global citizens as well? that's a difficult question to, to some extent these do well the rounds of science that i can speak to. what i can

say is that these common majors know about climate change since and 19 eighties. and instead of trying to move away from the business model that is such as one course to destroy a habitable climate on this tenant. they have doubled down and spitting this information and on their business model and are to, to stay expecting you post what your resources would be half estimated that this is a really a staggering number. instead, the damages caused. wow, it's a beautiful to kind of major since the 1980s may amounts or something like 20 children us dollars. and the question is whether or not they're prepared to pay that bill by brief. what then on? yeah, you touched on what's going on in the same, we generally think about the effects of lines when we talk about climate change drives and floods and heat stroke. but the oceans reaching rack or temperature. so what do we have to fear from that side of things and the to the global ocean. so it's all about 90 percent or

a bit more than 90 percent of the excess energy use. all, all the total climate change that we bring it to decline system and this leads to mess the changes in the ocean and, and ocean eco systems and quarter sea level rise headquarters species to shift. and it causes some things like the read face and other things that bleach in particular to uh, um, various tv effects on. yeah, we know cuz this and such rocco over use and what they are currently experiencing, i'm very concerned about is a global quote. okay. teaching events and use unique impression system of any other fact. thank you so much coffee. it expires not from the climate. another 6, thank you. thank you for everything on that. so what's the day have a good time the
