ah no agreements yet, deliberations continue with the cop 26 summit with countries attempting to reach a deal on climate change. ah, you're watching al jazeera life or my headquarters in sal. how i'm getting an obligation. also coming up a syria man dies as thousands of asylum seekers remains stranded along the bellows . holland border and freezing cold conditions covered 19 and regional tensions take center stage of the asia pacific leader summit plus i need to play a different presidential candidate. yes, but he's a ready to do seem to be sent to supportive and soaring in opinion polls.

mm. hello, negotiators of the cop 26 summit in glasgow have published the latest draft deal and at reportedly keeps the reference to phasing out subsidies for fossil fuels. so the core aim is to cap global warming a $1.00 degrees celsius. for this to happen, the world needs to cut emissions by 45 percent by the year 2030, and achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. this is our collected moment in history. this is all chance to forge a cleaner, healthier, more process as well. and this is all time to deliver on the high

ambition set by our leaders. at the start, all of this summit, we must rise to the occasion. so one of the countries which has been refusing to commit to stronger or short term targets as australia, the federal government there doesn't support the phasing out of coal. and critics have called australia climate pariah neglecting its pacific island neighbors. like vinyl want to who have a lot of to lose the archipelago is one of the most at risk countries in the world with raising sea levels already encroaching on its land mass. its representatives are calling for more investment from wealthier nations to protect vulnerable islands. sarah clark has more on this from brisbane was really was very slow to commit to the 1st round of targets where they took met the 0 net emissions by 2050 a little on the short term targets by 2030. so by the end of the decade, fries been pushing back on that. and the suggestion was, the strategy has been leading the charge this week in glasgow to try and walk down

that agreement, which looks at the shorter, tougher targets in the short term, as well as the phasing out on the dependence on coal. a strategy of course, as the 2nd largest exporter of coal worlds. so one of the highest amid has in the prime minister has said scott morrison has it even before he went to glasgow, that destroyed no stallion policy to commit to mandates like this. now a strategy has pledged $500000000.00 in new climate funds for its asian pacific neighbors. and that certainly be welcomed by some of those countries including fiji . the fiji and prime minister met with scott morrison in glasgow. and he said this is certainly a start. now, unfortunately, due to covered only for the specific nations were able to be represented by the leaders in glasgow, but they have so much to lose. so it was a small group, but a large voice that scientists have said that the sea level rise in the pacific islands could be $2.00 to $3.00 times the global average. and some of those low line correlate holes are simply won't survive and some of the islands will be

uninhabitable by 2030. now we spoke to some villages in invented watson and they discussed about what life is like, living with the extreme, whether they're experiencing on a daily basis. we just build and then it is destroyed and we build again. if the whole world could see what we are going through and find a solution to help us overcome these natural disasters. whenever a natural disaster comes, instead of us just rebuilding and rebuilding, we need solutions to be found for us at a community over a level. let's cross over to cop $26.00 in glasgow and bring in anderson. and to tell us about the latest draft deal, andrew, that has just been published a few minutes ago. yes, it's just coming in and we're just digesting it now. as not so much about sir changes, it's about what stayed in without any amendments or 3 key areas. one of which is the inefficient fossil fuel subsidies are being phased out

or that's is staying in it. has been changed somewhat to with, with word inefficient in the previous draft. it stayed in as is. so that is a key area that wasn't in the paras agreement in 2015. that is new. and that is seen as a positive out of many, many negatives in this deal, but that is a positive and it also is associated with coal. a coal co power has to be phased out, although there is a that there isn't on the previous amendments to that, that allowing that the man, if these structuring of new coal plants are providing they have adequate systems to that stop, stop any pollution. now there is also an, an upgrade in the climate pledges. this is another of really important points. calling all countries to upgrade their pledges on emissions cuts

at at the next cop in egypt in a year's time that is seen as, as, as a win. that is seen as a positive, of course of many, many people around the world will want to see immediate new pledges, but that is not possible under the mechanism of the system. there is no bold way through that it would appear, but that is the situation there. furthermore, there is a, a, a pledge that sir, that the on adaptation finance, which is a very vexed area or that there will be a doubling of that finance. we're talking about a lot of money that 520-2500 1000000000 was pledge soon, but that will, will be a something of a developments. and so this all looks reasonably positive. the way things are planned is to follow through with this. with a plenary meeting her a, getting people together, a stock taking as it's termed in this summits and looking at all the way ahead and

what can happen next. there are further amendments and changes, but that, that there are, they are relatively small so far as far as we know. but we're still getting information in we haven't completely digested all of the text yet. and so this is going to, as i say, go to an informal plenary later on on saturday. the plan is to actually have a full formal plenary and then we will actually see a agreements made an actual decisions. and the aim is to actually wrap the entire summit at some time on saturday afternoon. so really what we're seeing now, i'm whether or not the assessment will be yes, there's been some progress. but whether or not this is seen as an outright success is another matter. with me right now to speak about this, we have a greenpeace head of delegation. we, we've seen a number of

a concerns haven't weighed about mitigation, about the whole process of, of how we move forward on this. so one pablo as o'neil, you have seen a lot of deliberation. are you happy about things or are you really concerned this isn't enough? well, i'm concerned that it's not enough. i mean, as you, as you said, the language that was there in the previous sex about coal pace out fossil fuels subsidy pace out, was a lot stronger than the one that we're seeing. now at the time we're actually pushing for deadlines. so we want to face our cold by when we were pushing for immediate pushing for a face out of fossil fuel subsidies by 2025. and what we have now is an updated coal, so that basically means all call that doesn't have ccf. there's technology that grabs c o 2 and puts it back to the ground. and we have inefficient subsidies also in the tech. so that live leaves a little bit of wiggle room to not really do as much as you potentially could. but the, all of the other major issues is,

is actually setting these climate targets these attempts to get the emissions down . are you happy with, with that situation gps? that's good. yes. i think we can't wait 5 more years to get those renewed or updated. and that's what we had with the parents are in the private agreement called for a party to do it every 5 years. what this agreement establishes now is that they have to come back every year until the gap to get it to $1.00 is reached. that is a big that is that could save $1.00 all over narrows down. i couldn't if that is really, really if that hadn't been there, that would be more of an emergency that was already well, it depends what's in the pledges. i mean to be quiet and quite honest. and what we expect is that they combine the whole fossil fuel thing with the pledges coming back next year, and that those climates, i just show you how you're facing out coal, how you're facing out subsidies and how you actually pleasing out fossil fuels as a whole. if they don't manage to do that, then we'll be back next year where we are today looking at not enough ambition. and

the gap between where we are now and 1.5 getting larger and a year is a, it's quite a long time with, with a scale of emergency right now years a long time. but it's probably very tight for small island states, for example, which also looking for help and capacity to be able to give a quick turn around to their n d c. however, quite frankly, they're not the problem very briefly. will they be happy with the the finance? do you think? i think we need to see more into it. there was a lot of trust lost when they didn't get the 100000000000. it was supposed to be delivered this year with a promise from copenhagen that was reinstated in paris. so let's see how it goes in the plenary, it's going to be the most exciting lenary in the history of cops. it's a high risk game that the presley is playing, putting this large amount of text, and like an up and down vote. that's what it's looking like. so i'll be, i'll be prepared. ok, or unpopular. thank you very much indeed for joining us and i'll just 0 important historic times right now. and we'll see later on as or probably just mentioned

that that's the gas coming down on this. that will still be some resistance from some of the delegates and it has to be every single member of call who actually, who actually agrees in this. that's just nitty 200 countries here. so it is, this is not, is not a written deal. it has to have, it's not given that it's going to happen. definitely. but this is looking very optimistic. ok. thank you so much. andrew simmons reported from cop 26 in glasgow opposition groups. sensor don, have called for a nation wide protest on saturday against the military takeover. they're opposed to the creation of a new military run ruling counsel, and it's being led by general. i've heard about hahn and the commander of the powerful, rapid support forces. it excludes any representatives from the civilian forces of freedom and change coalition, which had been sharing power with the military since 2019. a young syrian man's

the u. n. cop 26 summit has published a new draft deal. it keeps references for countries to upgrade. their climate pledges in 2022 and to phase out inefficient fossil fuel subsidies. opposition groups and sudan have called for a nation wide protest on saturday, against the military takeover the repose to the creation of a new military run ruling council. a young syrian man's body has been found in poland near beller, uses border polish police have not been able to determine the cause of death. thousands of refugees are migrants, are stuck on the border. leaders of the asia pacific region have pledged increased corporation to help the recovery from the coven. 19 pandemic apex summit was hosted virtually by new zealand. and came at a time of increasing regional tension, particularly between the us and china. wayne hay reports, ah, they were the traditional welcomes and ceremonies as new zealand hosted. this is asia

pacific economic cooperation meetings. but for the 2nd consecutive year, the cove at 19 pandemic meant those meetings were held virtually. the culmination was the leaders summit, which resulted in a joint declaration full of positivity around co operation on the environment economy and the pandemic. so where they may have been potentially in the past, an opportunity or, or, or an area where you may have same forms of protectionism or nationalism in the response. you saw the opposite. a real commitment from a peak economies to overcome those issues. in normal times, it's this sideline meetings away from the spotlight with the big decisions and deals are made in the virtual world. it's difficult to get a sense of any tension, but it was brought to the surface during a speech by china's president. she jin ping ceos summit the day before the lead is met or shall be thought mocking towards him. mover had, i'm reject practices, are of discrimination and exclusion of others. if she attempts to draw 2 article

lines or forms more circles on geopolitical crowns are bound to fail. the issue, pacific region being cannot and should not rely please enter the confrontation and division of the cold war era. his comments appeared to be in response to the united states, increasing military cooperation with regional allies, including india, japan and australia, and came after years of trade. tensions between the 2 countries. on monday, president, she will meet virtually with his u. s counterpart, joe biden. there are also issues around the trade pact known as the comprehensive and progressive agreement for trends. pacific partnership, all 11 members are also apec members. and now china wants to join. but so does taiwan, which beijing regards as a breakaway province, that it will one day retake. there was, of course, no mention of that at this a pick summit, not publicly anyway, but despite the virtual nature of the meeting,

there was still an opportunity for the tradition of the leaders posing in an item of clothing of the host choice wayne, hey al jazeera towed on a new zealand. so as wayne just mentioned, that much anticipated virtual summer between the chinese and us. presidents will happen early next week. it's the 1st major opportunity to improve relations tension has risen because a taiwan and american support of pro democracy protests in hong kong. allen fisher has more from the white house summit still happen unless there is an outcome agreed in advance. and that's, we're expecting to see joe biden would love to meet judging, paying in person, but that's not happening at the chinese president simply not leaving the country and hasn't done it since march last year. so this will all be done virtually. it will be done here. at the white house on monday they will talk about a number of things that they have in common. first of all, getting on top of the corporate crisis. there's the global supply chain as well. 3 there is also the climate change,

and we knew that joe biden was pretty critical of the chinese for not showing up in glasgow essentially seeing that if you want to be a while leader, you have to show up to lead. as there will be other things that they will touch on, including nuclear weapons, they will talk about it, china's military operations in and around taiwan. i remember it's just a week ago that the americans have said that they are obliged. joe biden said that they are obliged to defend taiwan and would do so. and of course, there's been quite a leap forward in chinese military technology with them testing a supersonic aircraft that can go into space or something that might milly who is the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff. here in the united states said the change in china's wealth and also its military operations is the greatest geopolitical shift in more than 20 years. so yes, they've got a lot to cover while they were able to do it one day, probably not. but if they can show some sort of cooperation on things like exports and visa controls, then they will regard this as

a success. and it's really about getting the relationship back on track. because the relationship between the chinese and the united states has been it's still me for a number of months. donald trump's former top aid, steve bannon has been charged with 2 criminal acts for disobeying a congressional order ban and was summoned to appear at a hearing investigating the january 6 riots on capitol hill committee is trying to determine the causes of the attack that attempted to stop the certification of president biden's election when chris is salumi is in new york with more details where there are 2 contempt of congress charges, one for failing to testify before the house committee and another failing to produce documents requested by the committee. steve van, in the long time adviser to the former president, was subpoenaed and asked to appear by the committee that is investigating the january 6 capital breach. they say that they had reason to believe that he had

information regarding the balance that took place that day. they point to statements, he made the day before the january 6 attack on the capital in a podcast in which he said that extreme events were going to happen and quotes all hell is going to break loose on the following day. so the house wanted to hear what steve been and had to say when he didn't show up. they voted him in contempt of courts that finding was turned over to the courts in the united states, the u. s. attorney presented it to a so called grand jury, who found that there was reason to move forward with criminal charges against the president's former adviser. and if he's found guilty of these charges, he could face up to a year in prison on each one as well as a significant fine from his presidential election is 5 months away. but the race
