9:02 pm
a new constitution is to replace the one drafted in 1982 in the air of general augusta pinochet's military rule. chilion at present, gabrielle borage has already cast his vote. one of the 15000000 people eligible supporters of the new constitution claim. it's one of the most progressive in the world. it would guarantee abortion rights, protection for indigenous people and the environment was cross live now to the sea at newman in santiago. so they say, how important a landmark could this be fortunate? hi, there, it's a, it's an extraordinarily important document. it would signify a huge shift in this country's political, economic, and social framework. and there's really no understanding it. the current constitution is very much, a small government fried a market based a constitution that gives a lot of power to private property and less social rights. this new constitution
9:03 pm
would do exactly the opposite and much, much more are we are outside of a school now where president gabrielle burridge is expected to arrive shortly after having cast his vote in bold that in us, which is his home city and his accompanying the 1st lady or will be any moment now, but 1st to talk more about the details of that constitution. joining me is passat a dead international political analyst who knows a lot about all this and the difference between one constitution and another pass. thanks for joining us. my pleasure. lithia 1st, 1st of all, around the world, this is seen as a very progressive, very a 20 for century constitution that that, that gets a feminist constitutional guarantees, gender parity, a whole array of rights that are seen as very much something for us, for our modern times and yet, according to the polls most jillions plan to vote against it. why is that? well, i think is because the process has been a little bit rash that a lot of lot of positive things about the draft. but i think the,
9:04 pm
the procedure was very much draft and the, there was, there wasn't a lot of time to polish that they did the fissions. and therefore a lot of people having watch this monday to friday every day. my parents, for example, have been watching this, and they thought that perhaps some people think that there was a lot of divide the divisive issues that were not clearly solved by the convention . therefore, they said the sal, good chunk of people that think that perhaps it would more time we will have about the draft that the draft still have things to improve. well, i know that many people to say that if it's rejected, then we'll have to start all over again. that will, chilly, will see a new process to elect a delegate store convention. and then in a year's time, a new draft. but there is a lot of talk about how people a haven't read it and don't understand it and be the disinformation campaign that has accompanied the whole process and factor members of the u. s. congress have just put out a letter directed to the leader to the c e o's of facebook, twitter,
9:05 pm
and a tick tock, asking them to urgently stop what they call, a corrupt us information campaign that is distorting this process. and this vote, what do you say to that? well, i think if we look at comparative politics, there are number of referendums around the world what you find, this kind of issues that information in the one hand. and also i think the, the, the, the feeling that people vote not on the techs or not exactly on the issue, but on other things. so this gets the feeling is that people will be voting about the government. the government has been in power only for 5 months, whether they are doing a good job or not. not a good. no, no, such a good job. and i think personally, this reminds me of breaks at a little bit because breaks it was also a constitutional issue, where some people accused that there was at his information campaign and not enough hard data or how life will change for the come a citizen. and i think, you know,
9:06 pm
there some element to that, that in, in voting when, when this environment we have social networks, the social that this also the potential for this information of the general population. that is a fact. or one interesting thing though, as opposed to bricks. it is that 80 percent of chileans voted a little bit about 2 years ago, almost exactly to the day voted in favor of changing the constitution. not, not exactly. we're son of chilly of $79.00, but, but that was who could vote yes, but it also, it was, it was voluntary to vote and saw basically, half of the electorate voted and of the half tips than 80 percent were in favor of a new constitution. now we have a compulsory voting with or know who will, will act will actually be be both in culture has changed a little bit. but there is a fine, i substantial fine. if you don't talk to vote and the electro services, it doesn't, it doesn't, doesn't matter. if it takes us many months, we will effectively be, be sure that people vote or they pay the fine. very interesting. so we really don't
9:07 pm
know what's going to have exactly. we don't, we don't really know what kind of electron we will have. certainly it wouldn't be the same that voted in december for gabrielle borage. well, it's very interesting in indeed 3 quarters of jillions will have to cast their vote to day and will of course be bringing you the latest throughout the day about this very, very, very significant referendum both for latin america and for chile, of course. okay, for now. lucy newman in santiago. thank you. now to germany, where chancellor le sholtes has pledged the package worth $65000000000.00 to help people and businesses cope with soaring prices. the war and ukraine has caused an unprecedented energy crunch throughout europe. shells, in 5th, germany will make it through the long windsor high force. it has more, the heat rises and wholesale gas prices have set off in inflation re shockwave through europe, rushes announcement on friday,
9:08 pm
that is not stream one pipeline would remain shut down, is set to send energy prices spiking yet again, this week. you will never walk alone. germany's chancellor is trying to ease fears among households and businesses with a new package of aid, not to the states and we are talking about 65000000000 euros when you add everything together. i mean, i'm talking about 95000000000 if you include the 1st 2 relief packages. that's a lot we are doing and it's necessary. gemini, finance minister apparently is now persuaded of the need for a wind full tax on energy suppliers with in the double digit billions. he says, life, a german government is saying the country can last the winter, having built up gas reserves to 85 percent of capacity, but energy stockpiling by germany and other european countries has helped set prices skyward, along with fears for millions, facing fuel poverty, with an asset this morning it's really spent a 100000000000 euros on,
9:09 pm
on gas in energy. and it's one of the most exposed to russian importance for that context. normally, the customer around 12000000000 euros country like that. so this is very expensive and what we're seeing now is those costs studying spillover question therapy and leaders is to what extent this economic pressure could splinter the united front and supporting ukraine. the check prime minister. so saturday street protests organized by radical russia sympathizing elements. nonetheless, police said 70000 people took hot tease, show too gentle, but this winter russia is preparing for a decisive energy strike on all europeans. and the key answers to this should be 2 things. first, are unity. unity in defense against the terrorist states to show and 2nd, increasing our own pressure on russia. these will not allow shelters. second set piece of into the day designed to support that message welcoming ukraine's prime
9:10 pm
minister with a military god of honor. dentist, me, holly, seeking more military aid from berlin and his offering to send surplus ukrainian electricity the other way. harry faucet al jazeera. let's take a closer look now at the cost of living crisis in germany. well, last year inflation was 3.9 percent in august our it's nearly 8 percent. and that's largely because of rising energy prices, which are now more than 35 percent higher than they were. and last year, those higher prices are also driving up the cost of food in 2021 that increased by 4.6 percent. this year it's expected to exceed 16 percent laurie really, that is the lead analyst at the center for cert, sean energy, unclean. he joins us now from health thinking, welcome to the program. so looking ahead then, what is the main impact of this energy crisis going to be, especially when you consider the coming winter?
9:11 pm
first of all, it's important to be clear about the causes. the rising prize is not caused by the war, any grain, it's caused by rushes, black male for europe. russia, unilaterally shutting off the exports of natural gas to europe in order to try and influence the country, the back don't be the region of the impact, of course, is huge when we're talking about of the energy price is increasing. 4 or 5 times the most absurd thing about these is that as a reward for rushes, blackmail, the prizes by they do russia has gone up because those are linked to europe, say, internal energy market. so the most obvious thing to do is to break these link everything enterprise, these that are big russia, to the levels that prevailed before this blackmail started. the other very important thing is to focus on saving energy and deploying clean energy sources to
9:12 pm
replace fossil fuels. as pos as possible in order to reduce reduce pressure and the internal on the international market were given what you say, i'm an e u countries are doing their best to win themselves off. russian gas, how well do you think they're doing? 1927 countries having introduced new policies for clean energy and those will make a big impact over the next 5 years or so. but to get through this winter, a lot more short term measures are needed. we should be lowering the speed limits on highways in order to save oil. we should be handing cash incentives to households to save energy rather than punishing them with higher bills and so on . there are a lot of steps that could be taken and should have already been taken 6 months ago
9:13 pm
in order to reduce the consumption over this winter and use the situation. and how long might it take them for different sources of energy supplies to filter into the system as it were to improve matters? there's already been a lot that has come on come in over the summer. europe's l. n g or it's op, 60 percent this year, year and years or so there has been a lot of capacity. i don't think there is more have room to increase in boards in the next 10 months. it's now really about managing with the amount of energy that we have subsidizing energy consumption isn't going to help with that. what's really needed is just managing with the amount of energy and making sure that to everyone who can reduce consumption,
9:14 pm
dos and prioritizing those uses. that are absolutely necessary wanting back to stir july's or manufacturing, which is now being shut down. and that is going to have big baps on, on the cost of living. murray at the center for research on energy uncleanness. thank you for joining us. thank you so much. ukraine's prime minister visited berlin on sunday and a sign of ease intentions between the 2 countries that have arisen since the war ukraine started. dominic cane has more now on what they spoke about. lots to discuss, but it krista rises around a few things. firstly, can the german government provide more arms, more munitions to ukraine than it already has done? the point here is that defense ministers say, well, they're getting to the point where there isn't much more that germany can offer ukraine in the form of weapons without prejudicing its own defense needs. then
9:15 pm
there is another suggestion from the ukrainian side, at least, that germany be more considerate of the idea of this idea of a ban on visas for russians coming to the european union. we know that the german chancellor is not really in favor of that sort of option. and then there's one other thing to consider in this visit over the course of the last 678 months. there has been some suggestion in some circles of a fall out as it were, of relationship between the governments, between the shots, government and as the density government. because of the way that mister shots believed that the german president had been handled not being allowed to go to care for mister shots was then saying he wouldn't go either. now there's very much more emphasis on the 2 countries coming together. and the friendliness between the 2 countries, given the amount of aid that germany has already sent to give the south of ukraine, there's been fierce fighting as a key of tries to gain ground and
9:16 pm
a counter offensive to retake ground occupied by russian troops. officials say to will not be a quick operation and are asking ukrainians to be patient in while civilians that near the front lines are taking cover. gabriel alexander has more from keith it's sunday in the southern ukrainian city of b. goliath. usually a day for people to rest, but there is no time for that now. only clean up a debris after the city came under russian shelling the night before. a medical clinic and a research institute were 2 of the buildings damaged by the nearby artillery strikes. this provided, so when you blair, to inside of each room the equipment, the computers, the ross is the furniture, the ceilings. they've all been damage college in. in nico hall, another southern ukrainian town, local officials say residential areas are under constant russian shelling, fearful,
9:17 pm
and with nowhere else to go. my a chair, nish, a math teacher, rushes to set up a make shift camp on the outskirts of town with a boy who here from the russians, a shelling at night when people are sleeping, how we've had during the last days they started to shout during the day the the 2 cities are both near where ukrainian forces are about a week into a counter offensive to retake near by her san which fell to the russians. early in the conflict, this video, verified by al jazeera, is of a ukrainian strike against a bridge. the russians used to supply troops, it had sawn, the ukrainian military has seen some modest victories in the counter offensive. retaking a handful of villages in the region, but has yet to mount a push to had san city where more fortified russian defences await. when do you think you will be able to do an offensive against her son? city?
9:18 pm
was a very good question. actually. it purely, the browns saw no hold on. this is gonna work. how quick we get all necessary amounts from our vest and alliance, especially from united states and her kindly ukrainian. i'm forces field, the lack of law. i'm or the goals for our non infantry. we feel lack of for air forces. we need the thanks and we need artillery foster fault. and from his perspective for i would say, or any sort of counter offensive would be possible after receiving all this armaments. it will take several months, at least, at least several months. winter is coming soon. it will be harder for troops on the ground to maneuver. that's why both sides are trying to lock in gains on the battlefield now with the ukrainians pushing the offensive in her song. and the russians entrenching even further innocent civilians looking to find any place they
9:19 pm
can to remain safe. gabriel's ando al jazeera keith sent to more heads on the nissan, including a flood victims in pakistan that tell us they're angry because they feel abandoned by their leaders and the rich. in sports, the foreman won well champion drives to victory in front of his home. fans, and they will be happy with that. ah, iraq's caretaker, prime minister, mr for academia, says he's arranging a 2nd round of talks involving all parties to resolve the political impasse on con, has been speaking to people at a marketing by god about cream, his leadership. there's no doubt that the clock is taking for prime minister must differ alchemy, he's actually now calling for talks between all of the political parties. but those talks, elisa, that call for talks is likely to fall on deaf is here in this market in the streets
9:20 pm

a. you're watching l to 0 reminder about top stories. now. voting is underway in chile referendum on a new constitution face. the one that drafted 982 new era of general was to finish military roof supporters of the new constitution. it's one of the most progressive in the world. we crane in forces are trying to cut off thousands of russian troops the counter offensive, and it doesn't have only regions. on sunday, ukraine kind of got more strikes and underneath rich keeps the primary. russian forces. german government has now to $65000000000.00 support package to help people and businesses cope the story. inflation on the show room full energy companies
9:33 pm
will be used to keep down the cost of gas. let's take a closer look now at how dependent europe has been on russian energy. well, before the war and ukraine, russia used to supply about 40 percent of europe's gas, mostly through its network of pipelines, germany, italy, bulgaria, poland, and france with one of its biggest customers. european countries have now drastically reduced to their dependence on mash and gas, while at the same time keeping their storage sites at 80 percent capacity. by october of france, germany and italy have some of the largest ability to store gas, and they're nearly full of polish gas reserves at capacity. well, guerria has yet to reach the you target drisco foul is a professor of public policy at the university of effort. he describes the households that will be hardest hit as always, the share of the population that spends most of their available income on energy
9:34 pm
services, low income people, households and, and families with a lot of children are the, the, the novelty here though is that for the 1st time i would say the crisis is actually eating into the middle class as well. people will find themselves in a difficult situation at the end of the year when they faced the energy bills and when they really have to pay for the costs of the whole year. and that's for it. we would expect a lot of people to go into the red just to cover those bills. the sheer of households, ad energy, poverty risk is at 25 percent already now and that's before we're entering the heating season. the. the price increases are yet to come. and the, the gas surcharge that the german government has decided on is yet to come in october. most of the bills will only come by the end of the year because we're
9:35 pm
talking about a fixed price contracts and most part of the country. and some utilities have already announced energy price increases, but not all of them have done it. so we will certainly go beyond that 25 percent of energy, poverty risk, the 3 packages that the german government has put forward a target essentially most of the needs that i've just talked about. but i guess the real issue is, and i think that's what we have to face up here, have to face or is that the state cannot and will not be able to fully shield households or in the street from the economic impact. it will be there and it un is warning of a looming crisis in liberia where prices are skyrocketing, making, buying foods unaffordable to most while the government blames the ukraine crisis and cove. it members of civil society say corruption and mismanagement of public funds. are the real culprits? it was huck reports from the liberian capital monrovia too. while i'm ready to
