4:00 pm
the al jazeera, where as i all, ah, this is al jazeera. ah, hello, i'm emily. angry and this is the news our live from coming up in the next 60 minutes . g. 20 late is a grade to k global warming to 1.5 degrees celsius. but there's no pledge on net 0 emissions as the focus shift to glasgow. the climate summit, taiwan and tre, dominate talks between the us secretary of state and he has chinese counterparts. both sides agreed to keep the lines of communication open. more strikes and
4:01 pm
demonstrations in sudan a day after 4 people was shot dead during protests against the military curve. and japan's new prime minister is projected to hold on to power after sunday's election . that opposition games could wake and senior shaders influence. and i'm we a hearty with all of your sport. india's cricketers prepare for a crunch match against new zealand. that's a t 20 world cup with both sides looking for their 1st when at the turn. ah hello and welcome to the program. we begin with the latest from the g 20 summit. world late is a calling for meaningful and effective action to ensure global warming is limited to 1.5 degrees celsius. but the final communicate from rome doesn't include a deadline for net 0 emissions. well, the biggest economies also didn't set
4:02 pm
a target for phasing out coal domestically. the focus is now on the called the $26.00 climate conference that's underway in glasgow. diplomatic, diplomatic, at his head. james base has moved from ron. some of the g 20 leaders went for a picture in the center of rome in one of the most historic places, the trevi fountain, that's where you know, the tradition is to throw a coin into the fountain and make a wish. and i'm sure they wished for a green earth and protecting the planet. but campaigners say it's not about wishes or wishful thinking about actual action. and i think that is going to be one of the problems from this g 20. that translates to glasgow. what actions are they actually promised, and what will those actions mean in terms of the environment, the metrics and all this a very difficult. what we're going to have is each country putting forward, it's nationally determined contributions. what it's going to do to try to protect the planet, to try and reduce its emissions,
4:03 pm
but then it's up to scientists and scientific models to work out. well, that actually is going to me in global warming, and what i think is likely in the next 2 weeks as we head through the gloves go summit, is you going to have disagreements between world leaders who say the action is great. it is a great step forward, and many campaigners who say it really isn't enough. while climate change was the main focus of the g 20 summit, other significant talks took place on the sidelines. us president joe biden met turkish president rachel type early on, and they agreed to improve their strained relations. they spoke about the differences around the anchorage acquisition of a russian missile defense system. and anchors threatens or threats to expel diplomats from 10 countries, including the us. taiwan and tre, dominated, as us secretary of state, sat down with his chinese counterpart. anthony lincoln told at china, both nations should fairly manage their trade competition. and bar johnson and
4:04 pm
manuel micron have agreed to work towards de, escalating a post bricks at fishing dispute between france and the u. k. wrestle sutter is standing by for us in east ample with the turkish perspective on the talks between odon and baton. but 1st, let's go to our white house correspondent, kimberly hell kit in rhyme. hello, they, kimberly. what more can you tell us about this discussion between lincoln and wong eat? however, learning more about it from a senior state department official telling us that the conversations that occur between the u. s. secretary of state and his chinese counterpart were candid but also that they were constructive. what we know is that one of the big discussions centered around concerns about charges actions with respect to ty, wine, and the concern being that there has been increasing escalation in the area of the taiwan strait. so we're told that the secretary of state made very clear to china
4:05 pm
that any interruption of what the u. s. c's is the status quo would not be tolerated by the united states. and that the secretary of state also warned against any unilateral action by china towards taiwan and that there would be consequences . so this was one of the key issues where there were some tensions. the other of course trade and the trading practices of china, the united states has maintained for some time that the actions of china upset the international rules based order that exists when it comes to global trade. and so we know that the secretary of state also raised concerns and so the u. s. would defend its interests. kimberly plenty happening on the sidelines. what can you tell us about the attempt to smooth things over between the u. s. and turkey. now there is a lot of tension and it's not new tension when it comes to the relationship between
4:06 pm
turkey in the united states. this has been simmering for some time over a number of issues most recently over conserves, that were raised by not only the united states, but also germany and france, with respect to jail, businessman and philanthropists. so we know that the u. s. president, according to a read out provided by the white house, raised the issue broadly, but not specifically that we know of at least with respect to human rights, and also the rule of law. but the other big issue and this concerns the fact that turkey is a member of nato. and what are the big purposes of nato is of course, to counter aggression from russia. so there's been this long standing simmering dispute over turkeys decision to buy technology from russia with respect to surface to air missiles. and so we know that that was also something that was discussed between the u. s. president and the turkish president. we are told by a senior administration official that the conversation was both candid,
4:07 pm
but it was constructive as they talked about those issues as well as a number of. c policy issues including syria, the situation in the south caucuses, the east mediterranean, and also in libya. thank you for the update. kimberly healthcare live for us in rome. all right, let's bring in rest. so santa now, who is life for us in east ample? where so can you give us a perspective on from turkeys perspective, following that sideline making well, this is the 2nd time that pres, madeline, an prism by than had one, a, one, a me thing. the 1st one was in june in a nato summit in brussels, and since then it was long awaited that prison. this 2 presents are going to me that again. so their expectations were quite high during the you and j summit in, in new york, but it didn't take place the meeting between the 2 leaders. but finally, it happened in rome. just that they did. the american us side has mostly emphasized
4:08 pm
a partnership with turkey and the contribution of turkey over the last 2 decades, particularly in afghanistan and they have discussed the did the pros, the political process in, in libya. the democratic is dead dramatic process in so called case your regarding the war between armenian, azerbaijan and celia was also at the table. the dispute on the, the, in the eastern mediterranean, also have been discussed between 2 leaders. however, there are some of the disputes that these 2 companies are having grove in differences. one of them is syria. so turkey is, is, is preparing for a ministry incursion, ink to syria against a white pg. however, the u. s. is regards white p g as one of its main ally in the country. so recently y, p g has conducted the effect over to the turkish military post and the turkish backed air or ceiling or position forces pres. now, one says that any time turkey could conduct such a military operation against y,
4:09 pm
p g and syria, we do not know whether the u. s. is going to give a green light to this operation or not. but in the did, the expert says that it is quite immediate that will happen. another dispute between these 2 countries is turkeys purchase in, at the russian made asked 400 miss as defense system. and the usa says that this defense system, russian defense system is at to add to the native system. however, on could, i says that it has requested repeatedly to acquire the, the u. s. made a pat systems, but the usa and other natal members have been quite reluctant to provide that, and turkey was left with no option but to go with the russian one as well. so the relation between tis these 2 countries are streamed over several issues, regional issues and domestic issues, human rights in the country, and also the regional issues such as east mediterranean, syria, north africa, and so one but 2 days. the 2 days
4:10 pm
a meeting was quite important and not only in regards it, yes, turkish relationship, but also for the nato as well. because the grow in differences between these 2 companies are posing a threat to, to, to ne, 2 as well. in that sense, we could see that these tools are particularly regarded as very constructive and positive by the turkish side. and also the tourist. i says that add one i been has agreed to quit, to establish a common mechanism that would take out the, the distance between these 2 countries. we do not have the details yet, but this establishment off a mechanism is also quite something new. thank you very much. wrestle, sarah ly, pressing a stan bull, the focus of world ladies, who now shift from rime to glasgow as the you and climate, some it gets underway. the meeting has been described as a make or break my meant for the planet. rising temperatures are affecting millions of people with floods suit the stones, and wildfire causing devastation. listen,
4:11 pm
look up to 6 begins in glasgow to morrow. quite literally. it is the last chance saloon. we must know translate fine words into still finer actions. and as the enormity of the climate jelena challenge dominates people's conversations from newsrooms to living rooms. but as the future of humanity and nature herself are at stake. it is surely time to set aside our differences and grasp this unique opportunity to launch a substantial green recovery by putting the global economy on a confident, sustainable trajectory, and thus saber planet. let's bring in our environment. it is a nick clark. now who's live for us in glasgow? hello there. nick, today is largely ceremonial, but ladies will get down to business to morrow. what will, can you tell us?
4:12 pm
well as me describe is the most a consequential summit ever. a turning point, perhaps for humanity. others say is not really important at all is not going to have any effect. it's just a talking shop, a, a cove it melting point. a melting pot, if you like, for 25000 delegates who has stuck his eye the 10th for 2 weeks. and the more of an opportunity for a blade is to say more of that, blah, blah, blah, to quote, a famous you facts of his recently. but the sons tells us that there is no question that we need positive action here to say the least. is it even feasible? is it possible that speak to the green please? chief a jennifer morgan who's a veteran of these crops, you've been to the old 26 of them. yes. such ever what, what's your expectation here or we can get a positive outcome. i mean, my expectation is that the leaders who calm are going to come and make commitments that will keep this 1.5 degrees, goal and site that they're going to come forward. the developed countries and
4:13 pm
support the poorest countries on earth to deal with the climate emergency. and that we're not going to have rules that are gonna open up some offsets, which are pretty dodgy, and can endanger the paris agreement. and that's all to play for. it's day one with that's your expectation, but it's not only realistic is that everybody's playing. donnelly, shawna, the, the caught president, u. k. co present you saying, you know, attaining that 1.5 degrees celsius goal is probably not attainable. but i think there's 2 things there. i think one thing is from my experience at cops, is that anything can happen in these 2 weeks? it's like a microcosm of the world. in these 2 weeks, governments can go further than what they have been thinking. they're going to have to do because suddenly they're face sitting there looking at a person from a small island whose island would disappear if they don't act more. that's one thing i think the other thing is you can't just wish 1.5 away. this is science, this is humanity, these people's lives. and i expect we expect millions of people expect that leaders
4:14 pm
are going to go beyond their comfort selves that president has to go beyond his comfort zone and land. something here to give hope, right? we, we've had a raft of reports of, we, in recent weeks, spelling it out. we're way of being, we're not hattie's was when and how to results is with ron, about $2.00 degrees celsius by the end of the century, which would be disastrous. yes. would be absolutely disastrous. i mean, if you think about the hundreds of thousands of people who live in low lying areas who would die, the famine that would occur across the world in southern africa. ah, the creatures, the nature that we are so interdependent on. and that's really what the says about like, is that important or is holding on to the past of fossil fuel industry and corporate interest that want things to stay the same as that more important. that's the real choice here that leaders have to know what is going to change the mood music here as i say it's, it's pretty glum at the moment. there isn't a great deal of expectation, but what could happen to give it the momentum it's that's required. all leaders are
4:15 pm
arriving tomorrow in their speeches. they can make it clear, they're ready to reduce more in their speeches. they can commit more funding to meet the pledges that they made in 2009. and i think the other thing that can change the mood or the activists who are here and who will be holding accountable and telling their stories back home and putting pressure to, to move things up. or, you know, we'll see what happens. no doubt will be speaking to lot more of the forthcoming fortnight with bites of in the meantime, as jennifer said, yes, it's a well laid is arriving tomorrow. it's pretty much a procedural day to day. not a lot happening. we've heard from the mel devion for a minister, obviously that is a nation very much at risk from sea level rise. we've also heard from the president of view and general assembly has been speaking as well. but all eyes on tomorrow with the national leaders arrived and given national statements in what could be a tumultuous fortnight. thank you very much for that update nick clack lab for us
4:16 pm
in glasgow with a priority of coverage. okay, let's get some more analysis now from a room about gosh, he's a doctor and the ceo of the council on energy environment and water based in the indian capital. hello, they. dr. thanks for joining us. let's take a look at climate change from the developing countries perspective. what jim's vain named to fight the climate crisis. i think what is needed is a deal for development a deal that allows developing countries to move on to a more sustainable pathway while delivering on the aspirations of people who haven't caused the climate crisis. and in order to do that, you need a combination of finance that was promised the $100000000000.00 in 2009. that is yet to be delivered. but you also need large volumes of investment that goes into trillions of dollars for building the clean energy infrastructure that is needed in these developing countries. and you also need
4:17 pm
a cushion against climate shocks. these are vulnerable communities that are the victims of the culprits of climate change. and when climate shops, whether it's an extreme drought or flood, or psych clone, i'm happens, then it is their lives and livelihoods that get disrupted. so we need a way to cushion them against those shocks, so you need to invest in resilience as well. and finally, what developing countries want is a way to be core developers of though technologies of the future. we don't need a world where we saw the climate crisis and yet widened the technology gap between the rich and the for that is not going to be a just was and that is not going to be an equitable one. so if we can deliver on the $100000000000.00, if we can figure out ways to, for us, bring in trillions of dollars of investment into developing countries for their sustain with infrastructure. if we can create
4:18 pm
a cushion against climate shocks and invest in resilience. i'm bring developing countries as partners for developing the next generation of clean technologies. then we have a hope that glasgow will deliver a div for developed. how difficult is that balancing act between fighting climate change but allowing each country whether developing or not, a ability to grow it is definitely a difficult thing to do, but it is certainly not impossible. and what the worldly does, especially in the rich world, need to recognize, is that a lot of action is already happening in developing countries. my own country, for instance, india has plows to build 450000 megawatts of renewable energy capacity within this decade. which is larger than its entire electricity system, nor rich country has upturned its electricity system. in this manner, 63 percent of global elect. steve demand comes from elect emerging markets that are
4:19 pm
already showing that they have beaked or plateaued in the use of fossil fumes. so the action actually is happening in the developing countries, though empty words are often coming from the people who polluted the planet in the 1st place. and really the bridge between the actions and the words. and that's why i said that while it is important for developing countries to deliver on development for their people, it can also be sustainable. and we don't have to go through a polluting bought, we can move or leave for all into a much more sustainable and low carbon future. what kind of financial investment have you got a number? does the developing world need in order to reduce emissions and to invest in things like renewables? overall, even though look in the course of this coming decade,
4:20 pm
we are looking at upwards of $3.00 to $4.00 trillion dollars of investment that would be needed in developing countries. and that's why the $100000000000.00 marker for me is in negotiated maximum and a deliberate minimum. instead, it has to be a law. ready or not a ceiling for real climate finance unreal climate finance is not just constantly going with ah, a request that the 100000000000 a promise is met. but instead of thinking about how would we be risk investments in poor countries? how do we make sure that the pension funds on sullen world funds in the largest economies port the developing countries on their radar for investment? and if we can, dearest, if we can clear those in shorten solutions, then we can ensure that the large volumes of capital flows after the pandemic, the rich world has invested 16 truly in dollars in post pandemic recovery. and
4:21 pm
we're talking about even $100000000.00 cannot be found. the money is there is just not flowing where the sun shines the most or the wind goes the hardest. while we appreciate your insights, doctor, a ruin of our gosh, thank you for your time. thank you. moving on to the rest of the days nice and the sudanese teaches committee has called for a strike in all states of sudan that comes a day after hundreds of thousands of people rallied to denounce the military tank over at least 4 people have been killed. let's cross live now to hear morgan who joins us on the fine from cat soon. hello there he bab protesters are out on the straits again. are they? what do you even saying? well, emily, we're around 2 central business district. and normally around this time of the day and it's about 3 pm, it's a little bit after 3 pm local time. and this is normally the time of the day where you see a lot of cars on the street shop open. and we can count on,
4:22 pm
you can count the number of cars that pass by any, not many. normally, people are either on their way back home or on their way to see other says, and you can see some kind of activity, but then the military take over on monday and especially following yesterday's math process. there's hardly any kind of business activity here at the central business district. now, the committee that the graduate committees across the dental levels have called on the people in their neighborhoods and their residential areas to stay in their home and abide by the civil disobedience committee. the teachers union has responded and said that they will be joining that call for civil to be. and also the pharmacists union was also called nitro repeat, in protested to continue setting a barricade in the residential neighborhood. and continue the process until there was a return to the democratic process that was ongoing before monday school. so still
4:23 pm
they're called to be in many, many shops and businesses around the central business district here and to remain close. and it's not clear if people are staying away from work, whether it's because they are following the civil disobedience call, whether they want to see know whether it be could be barricaded or set up a residential level, residential neighborhood level. it's preventing them from coming to work. when you look at the government institution, there is a lot of security forces around the government institution, especially presidential palace. but most institutions are really close to despite being the 1st the of the working week. many, many government institutions, both at the federal and state level, remain close. so if it's still an ongoing process, this, that movement has called for the coming day. but for now, they seem to settle on the issue of civil disobedience and setting a barricade dental neighborhood as the best way to show their anger at the minutes we think over. okay, let us know how things unfold. they have
4:24 pm
a morgan live for us in cartoon. thank you. france as president emmanuel mccomb and the u. k. borrowers johnson have helped talks after days of arguing over opposed to bricks at fishing rhymes. earlier in the week, france seized a british vessel. it's now threatening to block ports and increase checks on boats . if you can, doesn't run more licenses. to french troll is let's go live now to alexi o'brien in paris. hello there alexi. any detail on how the 2 ladies are going to de escalate the situation? well, it actually appears these now a dispute about what actually happens in this meeting that was extensively aimed at easing this dispute over fishing rights. now, earlier a french official had said that both leaders, french president emanuel mc chrome and the u. k. prime minister barak johnson had agreed to the escalate, that there would be measures in the next couple of hours aimed at ease intentions
4:25 pm
after days of arguments of threats of claims and counseling. claims from has been angered over the number of fishing licenses that especially men were given under the post bricks that's tre deal. it has said that europe got 90 percent of the licenses that it asks for. but that, that remaining 10 percent that they all belongs to french fishing vessels. and so they say, i feel we would target. and that's when it goes from being a sort of technical problem to a political problem. and so the brush meeting between macro and johnson was organized on the sidelines of the g 20 meeting in rome. but as you here earlier, it appears the u. k. has a very different sort of time on about exactly what was discussed in the meeting. now, according to the elisa palace, mccomb told johnson that london must respect international law in relation to this post bricks that tre deal remains to be seen exactly what will happen in the coming hours. both leaders are due to give briefings in about 3 hours or so,
4:26 pm
but they had been hope that these talks could come to some form of outcome. the issue of fishing is very political on both sides of the channel, but this is a day where the g 20 summit is wrapping up. these all important climate talks getting underway in glasgow and it was hoped that these 2 close allies that the neighbors do appear to be in trouble was somewhat. but that they might have been able to find a way to resolve this dispute on the day that they were talks on the way about the very future of our planets. thank you very much. lexia brian live for us in london in paris. rather, let's go to london now though with sonya k go and sonya, what's the latest from the u. k. can well, yes, as, as alexi said, it's not really a question of them haven't come to any sort of agreement to both you came from seem to be remarkably continually continuously divided on the issue as it stands. it hasn't even,
4:27 pm
they haven't managed to sort of resolve that. they agree to disagree on this, but anything, it's been put on ice, but they're still continuing to throw down the bottom to each other. because fundamentally, what is that the house of this is that the french view that the u. k ha, is already in breach of the t. c. a that trade and cooperation agreement that the u . k. signed with the european union. and the u. k says that these, this has as if france does act on the rhetoric that was put out earlier by president tim, edward mack, who then france will be in basically breaking those rules and regulations. so really that seeing this situation completely differently. and of course this all stems back to that tense fil relationship that the u. k. currently has with the european union in the read out from, from downing street as well, but the prime minister barak johnson did say that he raised the issue of the
4:28 pm
northern island protocol, which for the u. k. is the most important issue that is surrounding and it's in the u. k. e u relations. now the problem is, is that the european union, having seen how the u. k signed up to those deals at the beginning of the year in order to be able to have a post breaks it's trade relations. it fundamentally seemed the u. k. as an untrustworthy partner, because having dialed back as it were, the success of the trade agreement that they signed. initially the u. k. had said that this was a tremendous agreement that it was paid paving the way for normal relations. but now since then, especially with the bricks that minister david frost as well, they've said that says plenty wrong with that agreement. so really, the u. k is not really carrying a lot of favor in terms of trustworthiness with the european union front being of
4:29 pm
course absolutely central to the european union itself is not going to sort of bend towards any demands that the united kingdom is going to make at this moment. certainly of all these issues and these of course are issues which are very small economically when you look at the issue of fishing rights for both countries. but the, a hugely symbolic and for france entering a presidential year and with the u. k. got to play itself as a major global player and in terms of relations around international relations, really they're going to fight it out at every corner that they can plenty of moving parts to the sun. thank you for the update on your gag or the law for us in london . ok, it's time now for the weather. he's rough. this is proper dime. pause of the change of season have been seen. this line of clay represents in stretching, crossing north morocco hills of los miran. this is the result of the impulse thunderstorm giving flash flooding in a bill. lot alone. i know,
4:30 pm
and it won't be the last of because those storms are going to continue. they are notable over the hills. you see the blue here, and of course at real height a bit of snow in there is what will they tend to die out? by the end of sunday, there is something to the suggest winters trying to get him another. he makes a huge amount of progress is waiting to come, but look at the wind direction for the north and cassock stuff, it's just not bringing that winter in. so generally fine afterwards, but still with shouts for the west. and they seem to be joining up gain yet with what's happening in the east and met because what has happened in the eastern met? it was nasty weather around system. that's the storm. it was named apollo's, nothing like this because it was most, it's right now over the open water, but it is heading slowly east was and so for good part of western and southern turkey in cyprus. so be significant rain from that. and so, scattering shafts the east, but not huge ones, no more than we seen so far. however, rest of the mediterranean and portugal on spain.
