a fight for a while, if you got them eric, i was told to think that women were made a challenge in the region. i will not stop being pro life. i want to sleep. we don't have read them in study about 2 weeks now, 3 day journey to with someone destroys our country. someone needs to rebuild. ah ah,

hello, i'm lauren taylor. this is the al jazeera news. i live from london coming up as china, as president visits moscow and assure support for vladimir putin. the u. s. warned the world not to be fooled by she's piece plan for ukraine. plus the $1.00 degree limit is achievable, but it will take a quantum leap in climate texture. the un releases a survival guide for humanity warning that the window of opportunity to beat climate change is closing fast. this is research and save a drought in somalia killed as many as 43000 people last year. half of them children on the $51.00 dead off the canyon police fire war to canon and tear gas at opposition leader. while a dinger and his supporters during protest against the high cost of living and i'm far as smile with this or it's referred to, martinez holds his 1st training session as portables in new boss or china. and

although is also back in international action, as the squad prepares for their euro, 2024 qual, fine campaign which kicks off this week. ah, russian president vladimir putin has told his chinese counterpart changing thing. he's open to negotiations on beijing's piece plan to resolve the war and ukraine came as the chinese president made his 1st visit to moscow. since the conflict began last year, she and putin hailed a historic close ties in the face of russia's isolation from most of the international community. hash robert fought, ah, this is a trip. china hopes would end war in ukraine. but it's a delicate mission for chinese president g jumping. she has repeatedly said his country is neutral in the conflict, but he is widely seen as

a key ally and support of russian president vladimir, put in albany, trying to values the friendship between china and russia. this has historical logic because we are neighbors and to large countries. we're also strategic partners such a position determined that we have a very close relationship with last month. china presented a peace plan to end the war in ukraine thinking. but while it calls fun and to unilateral sanctions against russia and a ceasefire, it makes no mention of russian troops withdrawing from ukrainian territory. president vladimir put in said russia is open to a political and diplomatic solution. whereas in community assertion privileging, we have considered your proposals for settlement of the current crisis. of course, we will have an opportunity to discuss this. we know that you are basing this on principle of furnace and upholding the principle of the international law, indivisible, security for all countries. you also know that we're always open to negotiations.

we'll discuss all these issues, including your initiative. we'd use the principles following his trip to moscow. president g jumping is likely to speak with your crania leader for the demur, zalinski for the 1st time since the start of the war. but ukraine has rejected calls for a ceasefire, while its territory is occupied by russian forces. beijing also faces another challenge, convincing west to leaders who remain largely skeptical of its best plan for the united states said it was designed to deflect attention from china. support for put in washington has recently disclosed intelligence that china was considering sending secret shipments of weapons to russia. and if that happens, the u. s. was it may impose economic sanctions on badging hash of alba, l 0. moscow based journalist jojo ship of oliver has more from moscow and wine.

good relations with china are important to russia. many people here understand the chinese on this in number one, economic part, no. russia in 2022. the trade turn over between the countries increased, set a percent reaching record $185000000000.00. and we'll also see that due to the ukranian conflict, russia has lost many of its long time friends and partners, and due to his sanctions imposed on russia in connection with its special military operation. ukraine was he that china's role has increased massively. it has become russia's largest economic partner and the largest consumer of russia's oil and coal . but on the other hand, people here think that russia's becoming more and more dependent on china. so when the special miniature operation began, the russian president site at one of his goals and of the operation as being more independent for the west, being more independent for russia, for, from the west. and he spoke about russia sovereignty. so probably a, china's embrace now can, can appear to be too tight. the jo suggest

a antony blinkin has dismissed china's attempt to broke a piece in ukraine. the ward should not be fooled by any tactical move by russia are supported by china or any other country to freeze the war on its own terms. such a lube violet, the on charter and delay. ah, the fire, excuse me, the will of a 141 countries who are the condemned brushes ward and the united nations general assembly one party to this conflict. ukraine has already put forward a just peace formula. the china is committed to supporting an end to the war based on the principles of the un charter, as called for in point. one of his plan is going to gauge with presence lensky and ukraine on the basis, and use its influence to compel moscow to pull back its forces. johnson ward is founder and president of the atlas organization, a consultancy focused on the global rise of china and india. is also author of the

decisive decade american ground strategy for triumph over china. jones's life, washington d. c. thanks so much need for being that the so what would you say the main aim is for she of this visit to, to moscow? well, this visit is really about consolidating, i mean, really in a certified they continue to strengthen in their own words as they say it, the partnership with russia, they call it the comprehensive partnership of strategic coordination for a new era. and it's been deepening for the past 10 years, i mean their military exercises and deepening their economic relations have been deepening. i mean, even during the war in ukraine, they've exercised joint nuclear caper, capable bomber flights. they've exercise militarily by land and sea and air. and, you know, i hear, i think they're taking stock of the relationship of putin's war and ukraine. and she didn't thing has been a backer of this war from the beginning. if we look back to the joint, russia trying to statement at the olympics and beijing last year, each sy pledge their support for the other in europe and asia respectively. so i think there should be no doubt as to which side china is on and at the same time

she jen thing is able to, has been able to somewhat successfully play a double game, pitching himself essentially as a peacemaker to the capitals of europe. but i think people are seen through that now, especially with revelations of military aide go into russia at this point. the avenue unit, a new to the mitre 8. and we've heard from the white house just today saying we still believe china has taken lisa laid for russia off the table. so at the moment his admitted that the china is, is supporting openly the, the, the russian war effort and ukraine. but if it were to premier, it would be sanctions and such towing that kind of critical line for shawna trade isn't it will absolutely. well look, that's what they've chosen here is they've chosen to support. and i mean, that's a relationship this matter. a great deal to them for the past decade. you know, they would like to have economic relations with europe and the rest of the west with the united states as well. but geopolitically there alignment with moscow is very clear. they've made that very clear and ideological terms. their propaganda support for this war has been, you know,

very robust and their economic support continues to be robust. i mean, many of their companies are still operating in russia. even the western companies have less left in exodus. and at the same time, we have seen recently, you know, reports of lethal weapons such as i'm assault rifles, body armor, to use drone parts. all of that, i think now is known to have been supplied to russia, including through one of the major chinese state on enterprises. brinko. it's one of their defense giants about a $70000000000.00 company. so i think it's pretty clear what they're doing. and this summit between put and, and she is very much taking stock of the russia trying to relationship in their joint geopolitical strategy, which i think they've expressed somewhat openly to the world for years now. so how realistic is the prospect of any brokering of piece by china for, for, for the ukraine situation? i mean, i don't think that's realistic. i think, you know, the ukrainians are in this to win and, and is, you know, facing major battlefield difficulties. so ultimately this is going to be likely

decided in the field in the real question is whether or not they're actually gonna go forward on before 8 and, and whether or not the west is going to see through the diplomatic actimmune us secretary blink and said we should not be fooled by beijing's talk, even as we can see, their actions are very clearly across the spectrum in their support for russia. johnson won't thank you very much for talking to thank you. thank you. 17 european union nations joined by norway, who signed a long term deal to buy ammunition for ukraine and increase their own stockpiles. the e u. european defense agency announced the agreement which covers multiple ammunition types and will last for 7 years. the 1st 2 years of a deal will fast track 155 millimeter heavy artillery rounds. russia has opened a criminal investigation into the international criminal court prosecutor and judges. the move comes 3 days after the court issued an arrest warrant for vladimir putin over the legend people taishan of children from ukraine to russia.

representatives of the icpc meeting in london to discuss the situation in ukraine as to how report 40 countries fewer than a 3rd of all signatories to the international criminal court, gathered in london affirming their support for the courts work in ukraine. the journey towards international justice will be long, its scope, vast as these mainly western members of the court have pledged money and resources to the corrosion that we share. the belief that president putin and the wider leadership must be held to account. and it's absolutely vital that we're night behind the i c c. and that we support the office of the prosecutor with whatever it needs sta, appealing for support. the i c. c. 's chief prosecutor said the very concept of international justice was as stake. da da, if we don't at this moment in world affairs cling to the law if we don't look at ourselves and decide how we can do better, not just in ukraine,

but as nations as member states of the united nations. we will not only miss an opportunity, but we may not have further opportunities. hi, on everyone's agenda was the 1st major step on that journey arrest warrants issued last week for russian president vladimir putin. and his children's rights commissioner charged with the illegal deportation of ukraine. children in russia's response a day after president putin, 2 of the ukrainian city of murray of poll now, and the russian occupation was to issue criminal charges against the i. c. c itself for ignoring kootenai immunity as head of state under international law. so the chief prosecutor of the i c. c. kareem khan has urged countries here to find the stamina to deliver international justice. but the real test of that stamina will not be in pledge is made at conferences like these. but in countries signed up to the i, c c, recognizing their obligation to deliver on its orders in the name of international

justice like south africa, a signatory to the i, c. c, which failed to arrest sedans, omar, her son, alba, sheer on an i. c. c. warrant when he visited the country in 2015, president putin is due there for a summit in august and the south african presidency says it is aware of its legal obligations for mister putin may have to re think his plans. now, a wanted man in the international criminal courts quest for justice joe hall al jazeera london, president putin says russia will supply free grain to africa to avoid food shortages. if the ukranian black sea export deal falls apart in may. he was speaking at a russia africa parliamentary conference deal allows ukrainian grain exports safe passage pass the russian navy on the black sea. it was renewed on saturday for 60 days. if you crane along with the un and to kia, who broke of the deal wanted 120 de renewal coming up on the news from london.

am i getting my whole government survives to know competence, notions. after bypassing the french parliament to push through his unpopular pension reforms by talks rally to the emergency rescue. due for credit suisse appears, the eas investors fears and as for more on the spanish teenager who's returned to the top of the world's tennis ranking, coming later ah, the window of opportunity to beat climate change is rapidly closing and extreme weather events will only get worse unless the world acts now to secure a livable future for all those the stock predictions outlined in a un report that's expected to shape climate policy in the years to come. our environment headed to nick clark has more in every country on every continent. the climate emergency is taking hold. this is malott away, hundreds dead,

hundreds of thousands displaced. the cause, a record breaking cycling on the other side of the world in argentina, endless brutal heat compounding and drowns with farmers facing losses. estimated at $14000000000.00. so now we have this latest call to arms from the united nations with what should become the fundamental policy document for shaping climate action . it is the distillation of years of work by hundreds of scientists. and these are the key points in the past decade that had been 15 times more deaths from droughts, floods, and storms, and more vulnerable regions, carbon emissions, they need to drop and rapidly. in fact, they need to cut by almost half in just 7 years. if global warming is to be limited to one and a half degrees celsius baths a rapid and far reaching transition could pull us back from the brink and to help do that, developed countries need to stump up hundreds of billions of dollars every year to

vulnerable nations something they've so far failed to do whether or not swelled leaders with that is another matter. it's not as if there weren't warnings long ago, and this was for man, nasa climate scientists, james hanson way back in 1988 altogether. this evidence represents a very strong case in my opinion that the greenhouse effect has been detected and it is changing our climate now. well, as we now know, the well didn't listen 35 years on fossil fuel emissions continue to increase along with colossal profits for the oil giants and temperatures. as of course, they're going up to and now say the experts once and for all we need to act before that window of opportunity slam shut. you in touch again. i'm telling you the terror says the climate time bum is ticking. and he edged rich nations to slash their mission sooner. humanity is unseen, ice, and that ice is melting fast. as to this report of intergovernmental panel on

climate change, i, b, c, c, the, those humans are responsible for virtually all global heating over the last 200 years. the rate of temperature rise in the last half century is the highest in 2000 years. concentrations of carbon dioxide at, at their highest, in at least 2000000. here's the climate time bomb is ticking. but these i pcc report is a hold to guide to the fuse the climate time bomb. it is a survival guides for humanity. mikaela loach is a climate justice activist and author. she joined us now from brighton in england. thanks so much for being with us. so some of the warnings in her, in the report, quite stark, but they do hold up possibility that global warming could be kept at relatively safe levels. alack is that the corporation is needed for that is actually possible . i think we have to make it possible and i think there and there is oversee

a lot of really stark warnings in this report that we need to be paying attention to you. but what i think really is galvanizing from this report is it tells us the livable future is not lost and doom and gloom is not our only kind of scenario. and that's not any feature that we have to accept. and if we actually kind of come together and put the pressure on to you and start these kind of institutional and barriers that they say a carney stopping us from reaching that kind of livable future than we can actually achieve that world. and, but that is going to need us to stop there like play for asian, having more and more fossil fuels and also scale down the current use of fossil fuels and currently and all of that is so possible. and we do have plans to make that happen. but in order to implement that, we're going to need a lot put pressure being put on from the public and from movements and in year, cuz you mentioned that the fossil fuels, i mean, the 2 biggest brutus, china and, and the u. s. a still approving new fossil fuel projects. how difficult is it to, to move into it could have, obviously, some of the, some be would argue you still need fossil fuels before you can transition to

renewables. but how difficult is it to speed up that transition new thing? i think it was important to know that i'm trying to do say scaling renewables faster than any country in the world. and that historically the use of fossil fuels has not been as big as countries like the us in the u. k. he's kind of historically been using fossil fuels so much longer. and it's important to say to, to know, yes, we need to resisting new projects like the will project in the, in the us. it's connie trying to be push 3 by the, by the ministration, who won on climate and are pushing 3 and your project, which is competing against what they were standing for. and in the u. k. as while the government also trying to push through new projects like the rose bank or failed, that this oil field alone would produce more emissions than the 20 low income countries. annual emissions combined just from one oil field. and i think the people have this idea that we need this new oil in order to get us through the transition, but with the existing fields that we already have. and i'm already exploiting from . we have more than enough oil and gas and cold to gas through this transition,

as we actually don't need to be opening any more. and not sure if we need the scaling down what we already have. because one thing that this report did say is that if we do, you continue to explain all of the existing field that we've already started. exploiting from that we will exceed all kind of boundaries in which we can actually live on this planet with. and so we actually need to be scanning data me and we have to make that possible and, and it is possible. and that require like a big scanning up of renewable energy and understand your book is to try to make people feel less less hopeless about it. what, what's your advice people can looking at all of these reports? and as our colleague nick thought was pointing out, a lot of the warnings have been ignored over the years. i think that we can focus on is what we can do from here. and i think that there is a lot that we can do, and i want i want people to realize is that they have so much power. i'm. i used to lie awake at night after reading reports like this one like this report or the report in 2018 and being scared and being kind of anxious about our future. and now

i've really had to transform how i view these things. i've had to realize that we have to all the only thing we can do is act and what doesn't, how he's doing and demon and, and only feeling scared. whereas what we can do is kind of transform that fear into action that can really transform wild. and i'm just trying to pay attention to the fact that the climate crisis and climate justice is the principle that i wrote my book about and offers of actually an oppertunity to create a best wild. because so many of these, i'm kind of impacts that i'm being faced and some of the solutions that we need actually have co benefits that arise when we, when we send to justice when we take them. so it's not actually just about stopping the bad stuff. i think we should focus on what is this new well that we could build and how can all of us in whatever skill sets that we have, use and do everything that we can to make this better world and arrive as soon as possible. we can alert, thank you very much indeed. thank you. some ideas, ongoing record drought killed as many as 43000 people last year. that's according

to research and by the london school of hygiene and tropical medicine. half of those killed were children under the age of 5 reports, as the rate of fatalities could rise in the 1st half of 2023, with as many as $34000.00 deaths predicted researches fear the crisis could prove worse than somali as last. major drought in 20172018. while one service in the ha learn where no one is helping us. we have no food. we have no water. we even have no clothes in a plastic sheet to shelter. we fled from drought. m. i have been here for 158 days with no food and shelter for the children. every day i go out and knock on houses in town to beg, so that my children can eat, be prosecuted to situation, is so poor lost people have lost everything behind them. bath is low for step rec, osha and became completely in need of food. ciocca water, hope care, every little thing they want. my daughter,

2 of them are women and children as we have seen today in if denied the p. french president, emmanuel, my cause government has survived to no confidence votes in the national assembly over its controversial pension reforms. 278. m p. 's voted in favor of the 1st no confidence motion. that's 9 sure to the number needed to bring down the government . parliament then rejected a 2nd motion by the far right. they were in response to widespread anger after the government pushed through plans to raise the retirement age from 62 to 64 without a vote in parliament. the french pension system currently costs nearly 14 percent of g d p. president michael says frances aging population makes that unsustainable, and not everyone agrees. economy ministries, as the proposed reforms, will bring in an extra $17700000000.00 euros in revenue by 2030 and create up 280-0000 jobs by 2025 at ashley butler has more from paris for the french government in the short term is there any good news they have survived to these to

no confidence in the parliament, even though from a very tight margin. they can now press ahead with that controversial pension reform bill. and what that means is, in the coming days with imagine that that bill will then go to the constitutional court and within a few days a week that could get signed into law. so in the short term, good news for the french government, but there is no doubt that the political crisis that they face today is a fall from. because in order to continue with the manual micro presidential term, the governments are going to have to work with other policies in the parliament. they do not have a parliamentary majority. they're going to have to reach out to politicians and also to parliament if they want to go ahead and press ahead with other legislation . but that is clearly going to be extremely difficult after these no confidence motions off to the government pushed to prove that bill by decree and parliament bypassing and pays that is infuriated. and people who now say that they have little

faith in the government, and there's no doubt that the french government has been severely weakened. the u. s. a worker and a french journalist who a kidnapped by all groups in west africa, has been released. aid worker, jeffrey woodcock, was kid up to new jersey and held hostage for more than 7 years. french journalist olivia, the boy, was, could not neighboring molly in 2021. because huck has more of the story from a single one is an american aid worker. the other is a freelance french journalist. they were both seen for the 1st time. at the tara mac of new years, main airport in the may, the both looked haggard, tired, but overjoyed to looking forward to be reunited with their family. geoffrey, which was abducted in 2016 in the region of i've a like this christian missionary with held captive for 7 years. and what you did, you was captured almost 2 years ago in the region of go in molly both,

both according to new shares, ministers say that they were both abducted by no kite felicia martin. the thought when the slum, while mostly mean and they share organized their, their release with the help of french and american forces. ms are going to be the hostages were recovered safely by nay. jiri. now, it is before handed over to the french american stories after several years of captivity, oliver war and jeffrey was a very happy to be reunited with their family. communicate coming out of the white house and lili's in paris, both relieved that their nationals have been released. but there are hundreds of millions people from kina faso, teacher or soldiers that we've met, their relative that we've met, that say that their family members are being held hostage by arm groups linked to

al qaeda and i so and so this liberation comes just days after anthony blink kid visited nice air, announced $150000000.00 additional dollars in age military. a to these countries are fighting off our groups, but millions of people are being displaced and killed and many are still be held captives. nicholas hawk al jazeera, the car is not more still to come this hour. ah, thousands, march through cities in south africa demanding an end to pow cancer, and cyril run, oppose his presidency. still waiting for justice. 20 years after the u. s. invaded iraq. we talked to the man in a photo that became one of the defining images of the abu ghraib b scandal and his sport bos loaner school. what could prove to be a decisive go in the race to win the spanish league title? ah

a weekend of emergency talks of bankers, regulators, and government officials struggled to save the swiss lender monday so a bumpy dave, trading on global share markets, as investors tried to digest the deal. many asian markets close down, but major exchanges in europe recovered from losses. and in the us stocks end of the day higher without up 1.2 percent credits 3 shares were down 56 percent that close. its biggest ever daily decline. u. b. s is paying $3250000000.00 for credit suisse. about 60 percent less than the bank was worth when markets closed on friday . the 167 year old bank was once worth more than $90000000000.00. jessie with cecia of the finance innovation lab. thanks for much need for joining us. so a deal has been structured to rescue credit suisse him as underpinned by the swiss or thirties, will not be enough to think to, to comp, invest his fears and in the banking sector. i don't think it's far too early to

tail. i think the main thing that's become clear is that we are in the middle of a major global banking crisis. so this isn't really about mismanagement at credit suisse, or there was plenty of bad credit suisse has collapsed, basically, and had to be forcibly sold to its biggest rival. because there's been a huge loss of global confidence in the banking system in general, stemming from the collapse recently of silicon valley bank in the u. s. and so what we know from past banking prices are the ones that confidence goes. lots of institutions become vulnerable, which we're seeing with 1st republic in the us as well. and so this i think, is a crisis that has got a loss of time left to unfold. and on, on march the 19th, the federal reserve and 5 other a central banks, now they would boost liquidity to try and kind of ease these strains. is that a sign of how worried they are about the financial markets and the banking sector? moberly, absolutely. i mean, on some measures,

the federal reserve has actually lend more to banks in this crisis than they did in the global financial crisis of 20072008. and actually there are quite some similarities between the 2. because you remember that the big crisis in 2007, 8 was caused initially by problems in the u. s. banking sector, which then spread globally. and we've seen now with the collapse of what is one of the world's biggest banks, credit suisse, it's one that's been classified as too big to fail in the global governance hierarchy. that this has become a real global crisis. but i think was really important to remember is that this has its roots in 2018 when president trump weakened the rules governing the banking system in the u. s. and so they didn't apply to banks like silicon valley bank. and that is what has cause ultimately started this tumble of banks across the world. so it's a real lesson that we shouldn't be weakening regulations. we should be thinking

about strengthening them to make sure that the system can withstand shops like this . we talk about strengthen regulations. it sounds as though it emerged that silicon metabolic valley bank had been under review by the federal reserve bank of san francisco since 2021. and they'd been issued warnings and they had failed to act on them. so is it that new regulations are needed or is it that the, the regulators need to get kind of big a teeth and actually implement some of these regulations? well, it's definitely both, but i think that the key thing that happened in 2018 was while 2 things. first of all, the stress tests, which used to apply to both like silicon valley bank were lifted. so the regular wasn't doing in debt strength, stress tests of whether they were good institutions or not. and then some of the requirements on the capital and liquidity they had to hold or we're also reduced. so it was a foolish weakening of regulations. and what's really concerning is that it's not this, sir. deregulation is not just happening in the u. s. actually in the u. k,

where i am, we are undertaking our government is undertaking what it's calling the biggest change in financial rules of a generation. and a lot of those are aimed at rolling back, some of the protections that regulate is put in place after the global financial crisis. so i'm very worried actually that we are storing out more problems in the future. and we need to take a long, hard look of regulation and think about how do we strengthen it and make sure that the, this crisis doesn't spread and that we prevent any future crises. and in terms of preventing future crisis, just briefly, what about the federal reserves are continuing to raise interest rates? do you think it will carry on doing that or do you think it will try to change course because of the time when we seen? well, it's become very clear that there is actually the federal reserve and the grand central banks around the world have helped to precipitate this crisis by raising rates a bit too quickly. and so i think they will have to take a long i'd look at that and think about the slowing down potentially reversing, depending on how big this crisis gets. jesse with a thank you very much indeed for don't it. thank you. now the international

from new york. this is the center of the political world right now, at least here in the united states. we're in this court house behind me here in new york city. there is a grand jury that we believe is in the final stages of making a decision if they will bring a criminal indictment against donald trump. if they do, it would mean trump is the 1st president ever in us history to face criminal prosecution. the manhattan district attorney has been investigating trump for several years. the case revolves around stormy daniels, a former adult film star, who claims she had an affair with trump and threatened to take her story public right before the 2016 election. knowing that the embarrassing claim could derail his presidential campaign. trump allegedly had his then fixer michael cohen kaye daniels, $130000.00 to keep quiet. i live,

during a later trial, the prison term could be up to 4 years in jail, but there is no mandatory prison required. and most independent analysts say it's highly unlikely that trump would ever serve any time in jail. for this case, gabriel's hondo al jazeera new york still had this news. our in sport ronaldo trains with his portugal squad as their new manager takes charge or we'll have the details and find out which nation has taught the list as the wells happiest country for 2023. ah.
