10:30 pm
people i don't know i think that. people feel for their lives and their future so they seek refuge abroad but what will become of those who stay behind. displaced starts october 16th on d w. before the pandemic we got used to the sight of thousands of school children around the world skipping school on fridays to demand didn't action on climate change and cove it happened well today tom burke and her followers around the world are back and they're socially distant but the message is still the same but how much difference has friday's future actually made until gail in berlin and this is the day.
10:31 pm
we have. a look at everything. and we're here to support the climate action because we really feel that teachers on the life. of me the future generations will be facing the right if the oldest be there slave you have good reason why he's against it if you don't want it. done quite right. that the congress at one time. also on the day of the race to create the 1st corona virus vaccine but it's the search for a cure the only motivation. is part of russia's strategic interests
10:32 pm
to always want to be 1st irrespective of whether it's a revolution or the 1st flight into space now it's about saying that we're the 1st to develop a vaccine. welcome to the day world fridays for future climate protests back for the 1st time since the pandemic back in march the rallies calling for urgent government action on climate policy went on live by the pandemic began today more than $3000.00 climate strike events took place all over the world. bad weather and social distancing rules couldn't keep them away the fridays for future protests are back thousands of people in berlin and all over germany urge the government to do more to combat climate change young and old came and along with their signs they brought the mandatory masks. people told me they were happy to finally be able to go back to the streets to protest
10:33 pm
thinking that during the coronavirus pandemic the issue of climate change had been forgotten their main goal for the protests is to push the german government and the european governments to respect the $1.00 degree limit to the rising global temperatures that was set by the paris climate agreement more than $3000.00 rallies were registered worldwide mostly small gatherings due to the pandemic and stockholm greater tune back who started the school strike for climate over 2 years ago was among the protesters before the pandemic millions used to march every friday like here in the belgian capital now protesters had to be more creative. here in brussels climate protesters want to set a light on those regions of the world is that now already accepted by climate saves here behind me you can see video messages from climate protesters from all around the world there are just so that climate science is a global problem and that the climate is that global brands like you and the
10:34 pm
movement that made people protest on this friday here in nairobi kenya. and more than 10000 kilometers away brought activists to the streets of mexico city . for a government that they can number of larger scale projects. much and not the right areas and that's. busy young people who want to do what the engine do thank you new train connection that will lead right through the jungle protestors fee for their beaches clearing reefs and the overall biodiversity in mexico the coronavirus put a pause in the protest but it did have some positive impact to the cove in the 1000 pandemic has see the factories periodic lee suspend operations resulting in a reduction in c o 2 emissions in cleaner air but activists argue the world will eventually need to
10:35 pm
shift to permanently changing its behavior in order to bring global temperatures down. a permanent change that is what activists all over the world are demanding. let's take a closer look at this with. she's professor of environment and climate policy at munich's a technical university welcome to you it's often said we heard in the report that governments are not treating the climate crisis as a plot as a crisis is that true. when i think i think it's true in that we've seen the governments around the world being rather slow in the development of climate policies but something that we're also seen recently is that the. mr future movements and very. impact was more and more governments around the world starting to take action
10:36 pm
developing climate laws and now seeing climate emergencies. so that the european level the announcements of the green deal which has been a climate neutrality goal for mid century these are these are important changes and although price for a future movement may not be the only reason these things are happening that certainly played a role. in as much as what they that they've brought into that highlighted it as as a. governance you know that their. future managed to do is to wake up media and get the media to really pay attention to an issue that's been around for a long time and i think they've been able to do it because we're not used to seeing hundreds and thousands of 14 and 15 year olds out on the streets politically active basically willing to speak directly to politicians and insisted that i just level
10:37 pm
of politics and basically say you are ignoring us you're forgetting us it's our future we need we need action we need to. your lack of action there if you choose instead and it has appeal it's more sleep care of the young people and i think by getting out on the streets and by demanding change know the reason why. they've had impact they've been able to motivate other young people and they didn't dance for change and they are being listened to ok so so we have the fight is for futures movement doing those things that you just outlined there but we also have that the more militant environmental campaigners like extinction rebellion to their activists antics and change the minds of governments all over otis as well just annoy people. and i think that what we've seen with the extinction. you act.
10:38 pm
the media attention pretty early on and i'm not so sure that having violence is really the right approach i think i don't think it's the right approach but i'm calling attention to just how serious this climate crisis is what we've been hearing for far too long is yes we're taking action but that action is very slow it's been incremental and that is something that really is the insufficient it's not sufficient for. the pace in which climate change is happening we really need to have the states out of fossil fuels we need to have a switch to renewable energy we need to build our cities differently i'm not only. forgive me for interrupting i want to get them to sort of get coded into this because we've seen the vast amounts of money that industrialized countries have
10:39 pm
poured into saving their economies from covering. are they likely to backslide on their climate commitments as a result of this old perhaps use this as an opportunity to embrace a green a future which way are they likely to go. i like to think positive so i'll say they're likely to at least put some of the investment money that needs to be happening to get economies going again in the direction of what the right is for a future who is calling for the energy transition the transport transition we just saw china announced that they're looking towards a 2060 target for climate neutrality california with the big fires just announced that they are speeding up their calls for a transition of the automobile sector normal are gasoline fired automobiles after 2035 so i think i think things are going to change but of
10:40 pm
course we do have to. wear them but maybe that technical difficulties have ahead of florida say in the end but professor marandi show us from unix technical university thank you so much for joining us and apologies for some of they got technical sound quality that. the european commission will challenge a ruling that the tech company aapl does not to have to pay a bill of $13000000000.00 euros in back taxes to ireland. you quote decided apple had not broken any rules on tax and that it was not the recipient of illegal state aid from the irish government the commission alleges i have and all too would she be duty all the bits of the irish head office that existed only on paper by avoiding paying tax on revenues or on the irish government did not require it.
10:41 pm
sounds a bit tangled a weird doesn't it the folks are from d.w. business explain well welcome kate what you see is the commission go to appeal or basically feel the european commission is fed up with multinationals paying so little talks and it sees us very much as a homegrown problem under the current arrangements in europe every country decides for themselves what their corporation tax rate is are lent is famously low at 12 and a half percent and just to put that into context here in germany it's 30 percent on even in the u.s. it's 22 percent this particular case though isn't actually about 12 and a half percent corporate tax rate it's about something else it's about how arland an awful came to a very specific arrangement and there's 2 sides to this i'm going to try and explain it as simply as i can the 1st how to do with intellectual property licensing and the other how to do with phantom capital so back in 2014 apple and
10:42 pm
arland came together and it was agreed that apple would move most of its intellectual property ownership to our land what that means is that if you buy an i phone in china. company the subsidiary in china has to pay the irish company intellectual property service fees that can be a substantial amount of money doesn't disclose how much and you think ok this means that they'll have to pay 12 and a half percent tax on this favorable make the european commission is not modified but still within the realms of respectability but that's not in fact what's happening so what apple has done is come to a very particular arrangement with the irish government whereby it says that those profits made are actually managed to elsewhere in a company that does not actually have a fixed abode and because of the us the irish government alive it's awful to diverse its profits and the tax payable on us to a company that doesn't actually exist anywhere in particular and that's what led the european commission to conclude that opera has in effect only been paying about
10:43 pm
one per cent rocks in our land 75 years old about millions perhaps even billions going from apple somewhere out there. who are on the outs again to somewhere exactly 13000000000 to. me it seems extraordinary that the irish government doesn't want the 1000000000 euros why well to put it simply because it thinks its relationship with awful on its reputation as a destination for tech investment is worth more than 30000000 euros and you can see why when you look at it from marlins perspective it's a small country it doesn't have much industry of its own to both of these tech companies are hugely valuable to the company to the country they provide ties of jobs so there's not too much in it for our land to go tough at this point know that the person leading the charge from the commission this is the moderates a vest. and she's got form when it comes to going after u.s. multinationals she certainly don't there's not many regulations that are household
10:44 pm
names but she is and she's tough she had no figure out all about going out and going after these companies so she's in 2617. the european commission fined google 2700000000 euros for and favoring its own services in its search engine it's also going after amazon and looking into how it treats 3rd party sellers on its platform so it really you really have to say that she's she's tough on this and she's determined to get her way so this latest court ruling that the commission says it will appeal so when are we going to get there and when will this all be over could take years and i think in the meantime the debate about corporation tax sovereignty is going to continue to rage in the european union ok meanwhile that 13000000000 euros just sits out there resting in cyberspace all right kate ferguson from did every business bank you. know next
10:45 pm
story has the ravings of a brown thriller catholic cardinals fighting over huge amounts of money a pope brought in to clean up the stench of corruption allegations of child abuse financial corruption court cases and overturned guilty verdict today's episode concerns one cardinal angelo a bench you who resigned unexpectedly on thursday on friday he told the press the pope told him to go because of allegations of investment he says the charges relate to 100000 euros that he gave to a charitable organization run by his brother the money is actually still in the church's bank but questions are also being asked about a 200000000 euro london property investment and again the way the cardinal tells it this all came as a bolt out of the blue. to give each are going to cause a tsunami on the year if you know it was a surreal feeling because until 6 o'clock yesterday evening i felt as
10:46 pm
a friend of the pope a faithful servant of the part. and each of them in the pipe told me i no longer have trust in you may have been a kid even more than a singer that c.l. made that was because he had received a report from the magistrates that i had committed embezzle months. they could not so what is going on at the vatican and who is bet you anyway he was a religious a fast correspondent of mata neg i cannot talk through the shenanigans welcome martin let's start with today's the main character cardinal angelo becerra boo is he. so bad use a very very high ranking figure certainly not a household name even for those that follow church politics but he's somebody that was in the department of state of the vatican under benedict and then under friends
10:47 pm
is. a piece of the if you're that actually held an enormous amount of power he was sexually the 2nd in line to better lean who is actually essentially the department of state or. essentially that the person directly underneath the pope souci had unfettered access to the pope. to both popes actually he was in charge for a very long time with managing entire ambassadorial bodies about it buddy of there i think and he also was eventually moved to the office. essentially proposes saints for going to the sation and he's somebody that had a huge huge footprint on the vatican korea so that he's essentially the civil servants. that move. to. this are the tick in the vatican ok so he was a big deal so how unusual is it for such a senior a cardinal or
10:48 pm
a cardinal is told to me effectively get fired and then to back the pope about why he had to go. it's very very unusual i mean so the 1st thing to be said is you know the way that the vatican percent. that bit you had presented his resignation cardinal said that state of their career do not present risk nations these just doesn't happen that essentially you know the very coronation often tired entire essentially. really just live for a couple of truth now furthermore this is not just a cardinal this was a cardinal of the very top of the power structure of the vatican so that he's actually extremely unusual but it's also got a few for me some that we all usually hear from the vatican. rather surprising that you know almost a day after the game out he went out to the breast you essentially say that he
10:49 pm
indeed had been fired and you know he clearly takes takes issue with the way it was done and with the accusations that were leveled now if i were a conspiracy theorist i'd be looking for a link between today's resignation of cardinal bad shewn who was in charge of lodging once a vatican money the pope's mission to clean up vatican finances and the australian cardinal george pell who resigned not so long ago because of child abuse charges of which he was cleared can you draw us a line between. i can it's not a terribly complex when essentially it comes down of it comes down to financial reforms within the vatican. somebody that has been associated he's name has being you know said and whispered around different forms of receipts tends to financial reform inside the vatican and in relation to the vatican bank when they're looking
10:50 pm
mean in to us appointed by these folks. to reorganize the financial structure east understood every day often said that bit too was one of the main opponents of bedlam as a matter of fact something that was even reported by the new york times today. that they too was named as one of the people that bush to have bill essentially sent back to australia to face justice so it is very very much the case that what we're seeing especially when we saw bell react today to to the sacking of bit you celebrating essentially and congratulating the boat for the move which that itself is very unusual this is something that sort of was done showing again i think the lines in the lines in the sand inside but you can politics so you don't need a great conspiratorial story here you just need to sort of follow follow the money
10:51 pm
as they like to say and a lot of the stories have to deal with these 2 figures of power ok what we actually need is a skit a hollywood screenwriter believe it that religious affairs a correspondent martin kept going to it. the russian capital last go has ordered elderly people to stay at home and advised employers to allow as much working from home as possible. coronavirus cases russia has recorded more than a 1000000 infections more than 20000 deaths this is happening even though russia claims to have created the world's 1st approved coronavirus boxing sputnik 5 which is still undergoing clinical trials. washing his hands multiple times a day just one of a series of hygiene measures parent undertakes the dr doesn't want to take any
10:52 pm
chances with coronavirus but he knows a vaccine would offer the best protection against covert 19 that's why he's volunteered to take part in testing a new russian one. someone has to do it. without clinical trials and there are no medicines. the effectiveness of his vaccine can only be evaluated in the 3rd phase of clinical trials. the stage 3 trials began 3 weeks ago but the vaccine which has been named sputnik 5 was already licensed in august before they began and mass inoculation in russia is planned for later this year something numerous experts have sharply criticized the russian government has rejected the criticism it says the vaccine has been developed from already known substances and doesn't pose any health risks rush urgently needs an effective vaccine the country currently has the 4th highest number of coronavirus
10:53 pm
cases worldwide and the numbers continue to rise with around $6000.00 new infections each day. gallup aaron and other doctors say they're not worried about the vaccine safety. after all the vaccine has already been tested on several well known public people and they're doing well. these public figures include russian defense minister sergei short moscow mayor. and one of president vladimir putin's daughters potent p.r. material. it's part of russia's strategic interests to always want to be 1st irrespective of whether it's a revolution or the 1st flight into space now it's about saying that we're the 1st to develop a vaccine internally we're showing that the situation is under control. it's a signal that russia is still mastering its role as the savior of the world.
10:54 pm
isn't thinking about his country's p.r. plans just now the doctor is here because he's hoping to help win the fight against the corona virus pandemic. lou do people are tired of cook with the who they want it to be over in the new vaccine can help calm people and offer a way out of the situation but google's because it will most likely be at least several months until the results of the phase 3 trials are known only then can the actual effectiveness and safety of russia's sputnik 5 vaccine be assessed. and not whilst the day as everything comes asian continues online you'll find us on twitter at d w news i'll leave you now with images and music from the lying in state of the night the u.s. supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg at the capitol in washington d.c.

11:04 pm
let's get more from washington bureau chief polwhele how is justice ginsburg being remembered today. so is it was the final could buy to an american hero i think who stands like no other supreme court justice for equality i think it is 1st to say that she was like a radical liberal who changed america with her never ending fought for equality and against discrimination well the president has said that he's going to reveal his nomination for justice ginsburg's replacement on saturday which joe biden is unhappy about why. right he made it clear immediately off the president trump announce that he's going to pick ruth bader ginsburg's successor tomorrow that he joe biden things that the american people should decide whether they want to have a liberal or a conservative successor or for meaning that the next president should pick the
11:05 pm
next supreme court justice so phil they have there are some major differences between biden and trump when it comes to gun rights and also when it comes to abortion rights ok now voting in november's election has already begun in some states how is that a one of the polls projecting. well it's interesting since joe biden became the democratic nominee for president he is constantly. ahead in the polls of donald trump. but at the crucial state of florida this will be probably the deal maker for president if you loses florida he is in danger that he will lose the white house in florida joe biden's. figures are dropping down so
11:06 pm
everybody kind of is now looking at this stage in the united states one of the issues getting voters excited or indeed depressed as you talk to them around the country. right phil i had the chance to really travel different states starting in the west coast and making my wife way back through washington i would have expected that the demi greely is dominating the decision so to speak from the voters but it's actually not it is as always in the united states abortion rights we have many single issue voters they just would go for the president who is against abortion then it's obviously guns but it's also the economy because many many people are suffering because of the cold with 19 pandemic so they think many things that donald trump has the power the energy to do to bring the united states out of this crisis and this is another challenge joe biden is facing
