what's a big what's it got to her over. the debris of what. i . am. the at. this is d w news live from berlin where a major international conference a reaching a peace deal in libya will soon get under way but on the ground in libya tensions are escalating as the government forces have seized or oil fields and shuttle for 14 everything that could choke oil exports also coming up on kong police fighting
10:01 am
a gas up protest says this thousands gathered to what they call a universal siege on communists. thank you as. i'm at home free glad you could join me a major international conference aimed at reaching a peace deal for libya will begin here in berlin in just a few hours time now libya's main warring parties in the international backers will seek to thrash out a deal to end years of conflict germany's expressed confidence that an agreement can be reached in the german capital but tensions remain high in libya as the country remains deeply divided. a quiet day in libya's capital tripoli. libyans awaiting news of sunday's berlin peace conference but expectations are low . limit that regarding the berlin conference if it favors the libyan people libya
10:02 am
will of course welcome it but it pavers other matters that we won't be happy that here. the truth is the conference of berlin is simply a trap to libya i don't think that any benefits will come out of it. there are currently 2 sides to libya the internationally recognized government and the opposition. spearheaded by this man general khalifa haftar he wants to take power and he's raised the stakes forces supporting general have to have blocked oil exports from key ports in eastern libya holding the economy to ransom the country is divided with and you have to protest in western libya the conference in berlin overseen by the united nations aims to bridge this divide but it won't be easy. i'm not saying that's a mistake to say that it will be used as it were but i'm not say are naive to say
10:03 am
that it will be the end of international divisions if we can lighten richie's the calm down and call upon the divisions you know especially the regional ones but also into next 3 divisions that we have seen in recent that would be very good. 9 years of conflict in libya has slowly turned into a regional proxy war the u.n. wants world leaders to stop meddling and hopes the berlin conference will be the beginning of the end for foreign interference let's talk through this now i'm joined here in the studio by all the little correspondent hands but i could see hands so what can we expect from these talks. is there really a chance for peace bearing in mind that we even saw general hostile walk away from talks in russia this week not only walk did he walk away from toe talks in russia earlier this week his supporters also have just blocked oil export ports in libya which is another form of poet play in the run up to the negotiation that's happening today i have to show you how powerful he is that he regards himself as on
10:04 am
top of the situation the militarily stronger. force in libya at the moment that's something that in fact has an effect on all of libya because oil revenues are still shared between huffed and the international internationally recognized government. it's a complicated situation both of these players on the ground here and it's not. whether they're going to be meeting but they're not actually sitting after the table today sitting at the table old us pause that are supporting one or the other side in libya because they really determine what's going to happen there and that's russia on the one side turkey on the other side the united arab emirates on the one side qatar on the other side it's really on one side france on the other side it's a very very complicated to situation where there was that complexity in mind do you think that they ease remove a compromise here between the 2 parties and of course the international back is or
10:05 am
is it a case of or no nothing here today or the last thing would mean that one side wins militarily and that's not happened in the last year rose. has been attacking the libyan capital tripoli for months now he has not really made much progress there it really depends on the outside support on the weapons that are coming from the outside on the mercenaries that are coming from the outside and this conference is trying to prevent that from escalating in fact trying to prevent that from happening at all. the german chancellor is trying to pursue to persuade all these countries involved not to supply for the arms not to supply through the mercenaries to support one side or the other and in fact to establish 1st of all a kind of stable ceasefire which has not happened yet a stable secession of facilities which would then lead to a formal cease fire and then to start some kind of political process that would formally divide power influence revenue from and so on in the whole of libya it's
10:06 am
a very very long and complicated process that's only starting when a sorry for peace or at least to hostilities leading to a ceasefire what is the biggest issue on the table i mean is it oriel is it stemming the flow of migrants into europe what is it well certainly the europeans for germany this stemming the flow of migrants is very important because libya is the main. country for african migrants trying to get to europe where they embark on boats and then cross into europe so that's always been very very important or even under colonel gadhafi just you know many years ago before he was deposed from power and killed so for the europeans that's very important but also they are other strategic issues involved there's the oil and the gas obviously but libya borders on countries such as in west africa the strategic places and there's a question of islamists and so on that also play a role many moving parts in this political correspondent husband and analyzing all

of it for us thanks so much a 2nd of now some of the other stories making news around the world protesters have clashed with police in the lebanese capital beirut demonstrations through far works and police responded with tear gas and rubber bullets it is the latest flare up in 3 months of protests against alleged government corruption. health authorities in china say that another 17 people have been infected with a new strain of corona virus fears that the saw is like pathogen could spread further prompted asian countries around the u.s. to start screening and passengers coming from the chinese city of. hong kong police a 5 k. gas in a public park as thousands of protesters participate in another anti-government rally where the demonstrations are continuing their calls for democratic reforms and against alleged police brutality organizers described today's march as

a quote universal siege on communists and urging the international community to sanction hong kong's government protests in the territory have been ongoing for months. and i respect you correspondent but he is spreading in hong kong and i asked him why i protest is as using to ramp up the pressure now. protests have been going on for this whole time although there were a bit smaller mostly we but we've also seen a big march just 2 weeks ago where again hundreds of thousands took to the streets the reason is of course that protesters feel that their demands have not been met that has the government has not been reaching out to the opposition with any offer of a dialogue or anything and you've mentioned the mottoes siege on communists the protesters also feel and the gys by serious off events there were the local district elections in hong kong and november where the pro-democracy camp how's how to sweeping
10:09 am
victory and last week in taiwan where people have been watching hong kong very closely the anti beijing calm has also won a big victory so the protesters here clearly feel that they are part of a big a tendency in the region there that said mysie is the church's shoes exacts of carrying that said home kong could keep its one country 2 systems freedoms beyond 2047 so what would that mean. 2047 is of course looming over this city this is when the formal agreement for the founded one country 2 systems with britain will end to carry on will not be in power in 2047 i dare to make this prediction so it has little practical value and what people here are concerned with is the state of the one country 2 systems one
10:10 am
country 2 systems in the eyes of beijing always stresses the one country whereas many hong kong is going to see more guarantees for the 2 systems and their carry law is the one person or one of the people that have been accused of eroding this this this fire wall as people call it between. and there are 2 systems so this is probably not going to ease and the of the tensions here in the city right correspond of n.t.'s putting a in hong kong thanks a lot. now britain's queen elizabeth has reached an agreement with her grandson prince harry and his wife meggan that will allow them to step back from their roles as working members of the royal family so they will cease to use the title royal highness and will no longer receive taxpayer money last month they said they wanted to need a more independent life. the 1st time meghan there in white was seen
10:11 am
holding hands with prince harry in public she may have known then that she might never again be simply meghan markle in the eyes of the media. and every mention thereafter she would be tied to harry and his royal ness. and that meant more media attention than she may have even imagined. even after a spectacular wedding the british media especially the tabloids disrupted dismayed and eventually helped disengage or exit prince harry and his wife meggan from royal service. rex it has tended to divide up like bricks of joy in an extraordinary silver way it's interesting that the millennial tend to be sympathetic towards them on the whole the baby boomers tend to be disapproving of them all the whole $100.00 appears the blood of them particularly want to pay for them public opinion in britain may be divided public opinion
10:12 am
a tourist sites in britain are decidedly on the side of harry in macon and i think it's very good that she gets to about america do as you all and i think anyway that's because they're going to have a lovely life i wish them all the best stuff will be a great step to them be unhappy off next for the happy happier couple and attempt at a more ordinary life split between britain and north america where some day they may be introduced as 1st meghan and then her husband harry will do the windows nigga now and how about this for a debut dortmund's winter's signing adding holand scored a hat trick as his side beat out 53 or horn on all his goals in the 2nd half after coming on as a substitute with the wind twice trailing by 2 goals in a week from player played a key role in turning again around. baby steps for the teenage prodigy dorman started new signing earning holand on the bench it meant caps in
