the un saw a chance to intervene in libya to save it from moammar gadhafi and it does or dictatorship were to soon be replaced by a failed state human traffickers and fighting warlords tonight germany confirming that it will try to do what russia and turkey have been unable to do mediate a peace deal to end the proxy war on the southern shores of the mediterranean i'm often berlin this is the day. of the coup attempt or start refused to sign the cease fire but there is a definitive results has not been achieved. first he said yes but then he left moscow. i'm against the ceasefire because we have to build military and police forces to end the militias when is the good german government

is planning to organize a summit which is a few of them. because we all work in the same direction of the police is. no good libyan will accept any bloodshed from the sun cease fire is a wise decision. also coming up tonight an exclusive report hiding his identity to bring the truth to light to what one hong kong police officer thinks about the pro-democracy protests. i'm just frustrated because some offices really dislike the protesters and honestly they really want to beat them up i have to say the senior offices have basically messed it up. on to our viewers on p.b.s. in the united states and all around the world welcome we begin the day with libya's unlikely peace broker in 2011 germany drew international criticism when it refused

to support a un security council resolution that authorized military intervention in libya early ends fears at the same time would soon be realized that libya liberated from a dictator would soon become libya front line of a new proxy war the capital tripoli remains the target of fighting militias and the latest attempt by russia and turkey to mediate a cease fire collapsed today we're now in germany were trying to mediate on sunday german chancellor angela merkel plans to host a peace conference here in berlin a negotiating table reportedly with room for everyone who wants a say in the future of libya. the talks were meant to bring an end to the conflict in libya and be a diplomatic victory for russia and turkey but after general. left the talks in moscow without agreeing to a long term truce they appeared to end in failure speaking to meteor

a day off to hell with the russian foreign minister sergey lavrov played down the outcome saying the peace plan put forward by moscow an acura was still a work in progress. representatives of libyan society met in moscow with the participation of the russian and turkish foreign and defense ministers we will continue our work on this track so far there has been no definitive africa. libya has seen heavy fighting for months the country's internationally recognized administration the government of national accord led by fires sarkar raj is based in tripoli it's facing up our challenge from general have todd's rival administration based in the east of the country and the city of tobruk. after its forces calling themselves the libyan national army are reportedly being assisted by russia and regional allies egypt saudi arabia and the u.a.e. . meanwhile ankara along with the united nations is backing tripoli's government of

national accord earlier this month turkey's parliament gave president reject type one the green light to send troops to tripoli. and after the moscow talks failed to offer a solution on tuesday other one provided a clear warning. you know they're not vigilant in the coming days we will be closely following the choices that the coup plotter have and the country's legitimate government will make. in the event that attacks against the country's legitimate government and our libyan brothers continue we will never refrain from giving hafter the lesson he deserves i did little me john. now the focus moves from moscow to berlin german chancellor angela merkel has invited top officials from a host of countries to peace talks on sunday in the hope that this time around something might be different. and for more tonight i'm joined from london by

monti he's the head of the zadok institute that's a think tank focusing on libyan affairs and is going to have you on the program there is i want to i want to talk about this conference in berlin in just a moment but i want to remind our viewers there is a legitimate government in tripoli at the moment supported at least by the united nations yet it is under siege what does that say in your opinion about the u. wins ability to secure the peace in libya. well the u.n. framework by the security council is ultimately broken in libya another is the u.n. that came in and does letterman will give its members 173 he says 11 to rely on its responsibility to protect doctrine led the coals internationally it's a day late in the safe civilian lawyers from i look at the after the arab spring started until it doesn't happen and 9 years later all something about the situation

is radically different it is the u.n. security council's framework which is working as the in many allegations maybe little rocks but how they support it discreetly put it out there since the 101415 during the 2nd civil war and then not allowed to sanction him or threaten him or condemned and that this is the members of the un security council framework and the framework that is just the result of conflict and i'm pretty steadily and learns has really been threatened by the example of the convert well we distill this down for us if we go back to 2011 there was disbelief the arab spring was beginning there was disbelief that something good could happen in the arab world and in northern africa the u.s. president barack obama he put the resolution to the u.n. security council and intervention took place and it did not work the way it was planned didn't do you want to venture an explanation there what happened was the international community then too naive. well it is certainly believe it or think

the slogans alone like that and i am of mubarak are down there with them with sort of an alley that these things would result in men or men of us change all on their own ethics slogans are one thing but programs and really significant change beyond just the head of the states because those states had pretty deep hands of goals and and that is an element of what has been going on across the arab world where you have the deep state that is the remnants of those former regimes there's networks as political and economic and security networks as patronage that works how the government or a country beyond just that they are has i had to limit security and almost disenfranchise many of the population there's things no one had a clue about have assault them let alone the local populations that had rose up in different cities that was sort of egypt that it was so and so autocratic regime it doesn't it seem. i turned it into this it as in sudan very very recently as well as the crackdown. with lebanon and iraq so this movement doesn't lead to where

some i did for but it doesn't mean that people have kind of given up on this on this because i think there is really a movement that is going across the world that those things but. the danger is miller standing in the way that those things that the that's about it because ultimately when you look at a place like tripoli the way this war over the last 9 months you had a small little flicker of flame left the democratic aspiration there's a musket extinguished but no under the pretext of that and a spring or early that human rights of expression of that moves us those things or you know that you can't let's you fashionable because of the rights of what has happened is there has been a even movement called the returns all too apparent instability and that has come at a group expense across the arab world and especially india and back in 2011 you know as i said earlier in the program in germany did not support the un resolution the no fly zone over libya was something that germany did not want to participate in and it proved that germany despite all the criticism was probably right at the time

in looking towards the future and now we have germany this coming sunday trying to mediate some form of peace but we're talking about 9 years between 2011 and today is a european countries efforts to bring peace to libya too little too late. i think we have to really look at certainly there's also such a research place in europe because there are so many things that could have been done but we brushed under the carpet leave later well until you are can do very very easily and very very you know with adequate political will is to enforce laws and bugger you can only fight if you have arms and weapons supplier and over the last 3 days alone. moscow talks of and that there had been need shipments from the u.a.e. special forces base but not without any go into eastern libya that has been somewhat. who left moscow knowing they had the backing to fight now if the u.n.

role in germany it well it started falls on symbolically that would force the local players to have lower action but you need to make peace a little and you have to make because it's easy to say don't mess up the but somehow it's better to look at both of these things because for every situation that libya the west would like syria we have genocides that were likely to run 20 years ago. you know standing police assistance is looking to let them go to live like this the situation and you know i was wondering i'm going to look i'm sorry if there's a fit of feedback here and i'm sorry about that me just ask you there what about the credibility of the german chancellor i mean it's it's it's clear that europe and germany don't want another migration crisis like we had in 2015 and they don't want one coming from libya which would explain why they want to do something in libya does the german chancellor in your opinion is she the one leader right now who has the credibility to get people to make promises that they will keep.

and it has a great reputation at least in the north of us just policy at the very least it's a trial is not being called into question any moment given the announce that there's been a conference for over 4 months ago so i think it's the adequate forum but the question really is and certainly angular merkel is you know as all the credibility that any should enjoy when they're trying to host a conference like this but the real question is is that adequate political will in europe can emanate from germany and at it from that meeting because to be frank we're going to have this meeting of scott my months ago at the participants are all members of internationally that at least get to journalist the question really is are other members of the international a right enough so i want to solve this because there's only one thing you can do with fear and fear is easily manipulable you know it's something that could be manipulated by other actors like russia you know could continue to manipulate the situation and ease the militia crisis that the great movie are about. the question

is is that a political will to put this to bed not a letter it's yeah you're right it could have been as simple as a skype video call but it wasn't until the money joining us tonight from london and as we appreciate your insights tonight thank you. the investigation into the crash of that ukrainian airlines jet last week it's just beginning iran has admitted that one of its missiles accidentally shot down the plane near tehran and this tragedy is the latest in a string of events drawing the world's attention some say casting the worst a light on ukraine and you don't have to go back so far in time you remember just a few years ago in the capital kiev those demonstrations in favor of closer ties with the european union that turned violent and deadly scene there after russia

annexed crimea and illegal act it also sent military aid and personnel to help fight a bloody separatist movement in the eastern section of ukraine the fighting is still ongoing and the hope attached to the election of president vladimir is alinsky in ukraine earlier this year well it was dashed quickly when a phone conversation between the president and us president donald trump ignited a political firestorm in washington resulting in the impeachment of drop the other day all of this recent history prompted alina by the cover of the brookings institution to write this ukraine seems to have a dark cloud over it it's finding a war against russia and it's become part of the political war in the us this tragedy again puts ukraine in the middle of conflicts that have nothing to do with it all right for some analysis let's take you now to kiev where

w.'s nick connelly is joining us good evening to you in nic i mean there's a very sad perception when it comes to ukraine at the moment we saw it in that quote right there which ukraine do you see as a correspondent living there and reporting from there. good evening brant i think most ordinary ukrainians are fully aware of that dark cloud over seas hanging over them but it is true has been an extraordinary few months and a real baptism of fire and it is that phrase is for ukraine's new president william zelinsky in office less than a year having to deal with being at the heart of this us impeachment conflict something he didn't choose he didn't seek out something it was thrust upon him and now again with this ukrainian plane being shot down over tehran being in a essentially the finding himself in the midst of the west conflict with iran again

unexpectedly again without having done anything to be so i think it's a very intriguing it's a very winning line i'm not sure there's so much to it i think the bigger picture is that ukraine has to deal with the fact that the u.s. is absent from europe especially now in this impeachment period any kind of involvement ukraine seems to be toxic in washington and that means that ukraine has lost significant support from the u.s. and might now be pushed into some kind of deal with the russians that's the baseline rather than some kind of course make. astrological set up that's really doing ukraine is present in. a lot of hope that was invested in the election. and a lot of that hope was dashed i think when this tragedy occurred last week just because he's president doesn't mean that bad things are going to happen that are attached to ukraine has that do you think in the minds of people. told them that he is unfortunately already

a disappoint me. i'm not sure i mean this definitely has been a puzzling time for people here in ukraine ukraine has to be had to fight to get attention especially in the west and a lot of people i mean it's basic as is it called ukraine or the ukraine people not really knowing how to spell kiev with a while the russian spelling it is basically is that this is a problem that ukraine really has faced for decades and now suddenly to find itself at the center of the international news agenda has been very strange having said that there's been some really positive signs for ordinary ukrainians over the last few months something that hasn't got the same kind of internationally ukraine's currency that who even has really added in value against international currency and that really is an important psychological indicate for ordinary ukrainians people here might not be able to tell you what was happening in politics 5 or 10 years ago but they will be able to tell you how much the dollar cost them back in 2004 back in 2010 that is something that is the people's minds and that strength in the currency really makes people feel that they're getting wealthier and they're

getting back to some kind of economic situation there before also just before the news hole days you have big exchange of prisoners with the production separatists that again a big feel good moment that presents let's give the form a showman was able to really explore it to the max and to really ram down people's kind of threw in a really not a highly publicized with tears on the tarmac here in kiev so it is a mixed picture but definitely nationally it does look like one disaster after the other also it may look like that ukraine is all alone in a very ugly and hostile world is that one way of seeing it and you have to ask you like you said the beginning of what about all of this just being a you know a case of a lot of bad luck and nothing. definitely you crazy looking in a more difficult international position than it was even just a few years ago i think as i said the main problem there being the us and the us

broadly more broadly withdrawing its attention from europe and kind of closing in on internal matters and weariness in europe there's no real sense that the e.u. is willing to give ukraine any kind of roadmap to membership in the u a weariness there and a weariness also in european capitals to maintain this standoff with putin's kremlin it's been going on for the last 5 years now i was in paris in december of last year just a few weeks ago and there's a real sense that at least france wants to get back to business as usual as fast as possible with the russians and is willing to go into considerable arm twisting with the ukrainians to get them to make concessions to make that possible some kind of deal of. the infancy of any kind of resolution here but there is a sense that ukraine is coming under great pressure to really make concessions and to get this problem out of the way for western european capitals well there's one thing that is for sure all of this definitely keeps you busy our very own economy

tonight on the story for us in kenya nic thank you. china poses a global threat to human rights that is a key takeaway of the annual report by human rights watch which has just been released the report points to chinese president xi jinping as government and it accuses it of overseeing the most brutal and pervasive oppression that china has seen in decades pro-democracy demonstrators in hong kong they say that beijing is using the territory's police to enforce a policy of ever greater brutality and oppression but support of the communist party line among the police in hong kong it's not universal at least when some police there to speak the truth he. has this exclusive report. when david chan joint the hong kong police force a few years ago he never thought that he would see scenes like these david town is

not his real name. base was last november when protesters and police clashed for hours on the university campus hong kong police had come on the massive attack. and david says it's not only the physical threats that affect morale. they've been working long hours they've been blamed fingers pointed at them it's very exhausting both physically and mentally. this is what he's talking about criticizing and often could sing at the police many offices are on edge they've been accused of indiscriminate breasts beating up subdued protesters and threatening to shoot you guys into apartments if video is alleged police brutality circulating online. bystanders would get into arguments with officers risk getting

pepper sprayed a clear violation of the rules as david. i'm just frustrated because some offices really dislike the protesters and honestly they really want to beat them up but i think this isn't the right mentality we should be impartial as police officers we shouldn't take sides he says he's currently doing as much as 100 hours of overtime every month while he isn't serving at the front line as backup he often has to be at the side of demonstrations david is hiding his identity feel being bullied by protesters online and he worries about professional repercussions . as a member of the hong kong police force i shouldn't be criticizing it in public but as a citizen of hong kong i have to say the senior officers have basically messed it up . officials denied the police have done anything wrong

the police has been the focus of the demonstrators since june when they 1st violently broke up a protest. since then public anger has steadily grow especially among the young david says most of his friends have turned their back on him in the past 6 months. i was a bit upset about it because they were my good friends but then i thought about it there's nothing i can do. he says several of his colleagues have quit their jobs but while he's at all it's with the current tactics he has no intention to leave. i should be staying in the police force and try to maintain the right mentality and to uphold the values of the police. it's a tough challenge for david stuck between loyalty and.

climate change is real no matter which language you speak a team of german linguists has just announced the annual worst german word of the year award which highlights words that can mislead or obscure the truth and that word this year is clima history and if you translate that word into english very easy to do you get there you see it climate hysteria and the jury says it used to defame climate change activism and discredit important debates on the phenomenon it makes a path ology of the growing climate change movement is misleading and irresponsibly supports anti science tendencies the power of one word all right so let's get back to the science now a major new report has shown that the world's oceans grew even hotter in 2019 now that is no surprise the last 5 years were each in their time the hottest on record

the researchers say that the warming oceans are already having a major impact on marine life and on these severely of storms so i clones and hurricanes. as our planet warms due to the greenhouse effect the vast majority of trapped heat is absorbed by the oceans over 90 percent of it the oceans therefore provide a key buffer that helps keep temperatures on our planet stable but their capacity to absorb heat isn't endless and marine eco systems are suffering organisms like corals that can't flee the higher temperatures simply die back to back bleaching and catastrophic mortality has meant we've lost 50 percent of all corals on the great barrier reef in 2 years and this is meant we've needed entirely new ways to think about how can we fast track both resilience and recovery according to the new study sense 2010 the oceans have absorbed around 22860000000 joules of extra heat

to compare that's over 400 times the energy used by the entire human race annually and warmer oceans are having another major impact on our planet's colder regions even a slight rise in water temperature causes glaciers to melt more rapidly from below billions of tons of ice have already disappeared from the ice caps in a nutshell warmer ocean temperatures mean rising sea levels the minister marine biodiversity and more powerful storms. no climate hysteria they are well the day is almost done the conversation online continues will find us on twitter either at the w. news you can follow me at birth golf t.v. for get used to or hash tag of the day every member whatever happens between now and then tomorrow is another day see that.
