u.s. president makes our we're new commitment to the transatlantic alliance addressing the munich security conference he promises close cooperation to tackle a host of pressing issues also coming up on the show is one year on it seems a germany is paying tribute since an attack or racist attack in the city of i now in germany germany is now paying tribute with president frank falter steinmeyer urging the public to unite against right wing extremism and in the interest league of fans are looking forward to the league's fiercest rivalry as a bottom placed shall go host for riskier dortmund in the riviera derby on saturday comments made some points to qualify for the champions league and shall go on to escape the relegation. hello i'm claire richardson welcome to the show joe biden has made his 1st major global. parents as u.s.

president addressing the munich security conference he declared a renewed commitment to the transatlantic alliance promising to work closely with european allies to tackle defense covert 19 and climate change after 4 years of fraying transatlantic ties under the trump administration biden is trying to rebuild relations but there are important areas where washington and europe a don't see eye to eye. when the west talks amongst itself the us president has the 1st word and he delivered what his partners in europe wanted to hear america is back the transatlantic alliance is back and joe biden was clearly about america's core mission. for most prepared gather for a long term strategic competition with china tricky for germany whose economic recovery from covert is made in china it angela merkel says she's ready to take on the challenge with a no tipping softer tone and you know how that in. over the past 2 years china has

gained global power and we have to set something against that as a transatlantic alliance and as democracies and that's why the question of not just china and russia getting vaccines to developing into other countries is very important. and the fixings then there isn't 50 a man i might call rooms that america's interests were no longer always the same as europe's and spoke about his favorite theme of european sovereignty. 0 opinion it's key members. have to be part of the solution of their own security french and german interpretations of sovereignty may remain different yet both share the relief over the new u.s. administration. signed so multilateralism are a lot better today than 2 years ago and that has

a lot to do with the fact that dubai and has become president of the united states starting from the merely just in some of the munich security conference we'll have the whole world back at the diplomatic table this preview set the tone from the west on democracy doesn't happen by accident we have to defend it fight for strength and renewing we have to prove that our model isn't a relic of history. it's the single best way to revive lies the promise of our future. but that comeback of the west under u.s. leadership is by no means certain. and for more i'm joined now by davies washington bureau chief in as paul it has been saying there that democracy must be defended what exactly is he referring to there and what is it is his administration's plan for actually tackling what he calls democracy under threat. well long before use

of the institutions that kept the u.s. from kaos have been a challenge greatly you know whether it is the independence of the justice department and the trust in the election process itself really has pushed the limits of how far a u.s. president can go and some of the consequences and generally sticks i mean when his supporters to take the capital to stop the peaceful transition of power so the rise of autocrats around the world is going to be a challenge for the new administration when biden was at the munich security conference with the core message that the united states is back as a reliable partner but what actual policies has his administration introduced to assure european allies. well much of what he has done so far is mostly at a diplomatic level like the really entering of the paras climate agreement today

but there have also been some substantial actions already that he has taken for example renegotiating the start treaty with strong was planning to let run out this february and biden will have a lot on his plate he will have to convince the rest of the world that the nationalistic polit scenes of the last 4 years of the united states are history and biden has made a harsh warnings about the threat he says is posed by russia you know rising china but his european allies are probably not on the exact same page so how will they be able to bridge their divide here. this is going to be one of the creative jelen just hold the transatlantic relationship germany for example as a major export country really relies on china as a huge market and once to keep strong relationships while biden has been clear that china is the u.s. greatest competitive global economy is also when it comes to knowledge through to

russia germany and the united states have very very different takes on the white house is not in favor of it and they even threaten sanctions against entities involved in that project so there will be a lot of work to do you know as european leaders are feeling relief that they have bite and at the how now the trump years were a tough lesson about relying too much on the united states to think europe has moved on in a meaningful way that will have an impact on biden's ability to cooperate with the european union. yeah well you know there was a lot of talk today at the munich security conference and we shall see of europe if europe really delivers if they really pay their fair share for example when it came comes to nato and if they're really come together and we saw what we saw lately for

example regarding the cole with 19 policies weren't so promising from the american perspective this poll in washington d.c. thank you so much. germany is marking one year since 9 people were killed in a racist attack that shocked the country the victims were gunned down in the western city of homs now by a 43 year old german man who later turned the gun on himself. after a year long investigation relatives of the victims say they still have more questions than answers. the bells of one else churches ringing out and remembrance of the 9 that lost their lives but for friends and family of the victims they still deal with the grief daily. this is on you know here today it's been exactly

700000000000 land animals are killed worldwide each year but it's not just the animals little suffering it's the environment if you want to know how one 5th of the priest i'm a hunch was strange to us as we think is listen to our podcast on the dream since. this is the w.'s africa coming up in a program well war victims finally get the justice they've been waiting for. these years on the alleged perpetrators of atrocities in the central african republic face charges of international criminal court also coming out. in democratic breakthrough for me jack i had a presidential elections this weekend as a country at times it's best peaceful transfer of power in 60 years.

i imagine michael jr welcome to the program the uk he had in suit and tie for trial at international criminal court in the hague archie said why in god so on and off. use of war crimes and crimes against humanity in the central african republic but if you have not guilty back used of leading mainly christian on to militia that carried out. atrocities during the costs of war 80 years after the start of the bloodshed the victims are seeking justice in form of a conviction. that christians in the central african republic running for their lives. as if. the muslims are killing us over there but. this was in 2013 after muslim rebels had ousted the president and seized power. and it wasn't long before

christians retaliated a band of militias called the un chief rose up and wreaked bloody revenge on the muslim civilian population. with. the spiral of violence between sectarian militias left thousands of civilians dead nearly one in 5 of the republic's 5000000 residents were forced to flee the violence. now 2 of the anti come alicia leaders face charges at the international criminal court. i fled yucatan seen here at a pretrial hearing was arrested in 2018 extradited to the i.c.c. 23 he will stand trial together with patrice issue on guys sona the 2 men face 21 and $32.00 counts of war crimes and crimes against humanity respectively $28.00

their conviction may be a step towards justice for their victims but the central african republic remains blighted by sectarian violence and attacks by rebel groups since presidential elections were held at the end of december last year there's been a new spate of attacks by rebels. and again it's the civilians who bear the brunt of the fighting over the last 2 months more than 200000 people have already fled the latest violence. joining me now is elise keppler associate director at international justice for gram human rights watch thanks for your time at least now festal us why has it taken more than 80 as for the i.c.c. to open a trial on this case the reality is is that ensuring justice for these most complex crimes is incredibly difficult and challenging 1st of all it was only in 2014 that the central african government requested that the

international criminal court open an investigation after that conducting investigations is extremely complicated and ensuring suspects come into the dock is also very challenging and it wasn't i believe until the end of 2019 that and i sona and yet the term came into international criminal court custody now it's making headlines all around the internet so what about the key snakes that trial so important. this is the 1st time that we are seeing a trial of anti bill aka leaders at the international criminal court this time a lot of block a militia is implicated in her or if the abuses committed in the most recent conflict in the central african republic it's not the only group implicated in serious he says but it's a milestone to see these alleged leaders of the anti bill aka facing charges

against them at the international criminal court and lots of atrocities have been committed by different people so shouldn't obvious also be on trial here. absolutely this should not be the only case that happens at the international criminal court for crimes committed during this conflict in the central african republic human rights watch race concerned that initially it was only anti-black or suspects who were being tried but we saw just a couple weeks ago that the international criminal court took into custody its 1st select a suspect mohammed saeed these cases should be the 1st of more the international criminal court is a court of last resort it does not do hundreds of cases in any given situation at focuses on those at the highest levels of power and leadership but definitely these should not be the only cases for the situation ok when should we expect a verdict. it will be some time until verdict these processes are very complicated

i heard mention today of i think some 6000 pieces of evidence there will be more than 100 witnesses so they are very complicated and there are also participants victim participants in addition to witnesses who can express their views and concerns that's an important part of the process but regardless of how long it takes to get to a verdict it's important to note that great now we see continued abuses against civilians in the central african republic renewed violence as part of a new battle that coalition formed and impunity has been such a key driver of crimes committed in the central african republic and perpetrator should take note of justice is not always possible today we see the rule of law has reached suspects and it sends a clear message that justice can be done it should be done and it may be done for would be perpetrators in the future. thanks for the round up at least kepler

associate director international justice program at human rights watch thanks for your time. thank you take good care. chaos erupted in somalia's capital mogadishu a simple question supports us protested that the leader of the country's elections . security forces clashed with god's from the procession president mohamed deny if a modest 10 a spad last week but additions could not agree on how the election should be conducted the tension comes somalia is grappling with the long run in threats from al-shabaab jihadists and said since. now us africa the process 100000 vets from covert 19 countries scramble for vaccines the government of tanzania has been downplaying the threat of that is east. bought the deadly cost

this week the vice president of the semi autonomous zones of ireland died of a coup and a virus sorry if hamada was the most high profile politician in tanzania so how about mid ted being infected with a virus that's now raising concerns of on epidemic possibly running rampant we asked. what do you think of 1st enjoying myself loose approach to covert 19. there are some misinformation between the government and they seem to think there's no direct deviation. people are always given the information and all we know are. so thinly or controversial between the citizen and the government about the issue of 19 the government has been taking various effective measures so as to conduct. like ensuring that they have proper sanitary such as washing hands across college isn't even is efficient such as banks we're told to wash your hands the senate

hasn't and to also a mask i think it has really been a good way of handling things from left there this year and i think they got that one and government is being realistic with the situation because if every person go through a lockdown then to be very hard for people to survive. now in the history will be made a busy weekend as a country it's fast democratic transfer of power. 60 years of independence from france have been mobbed by a series of military coups now elected president who steps down after his 2nd 5 year term his successor will be expected to tackle growing terrorist threats and economic hardships amid the crew and i virus and make. the company at its peak in the lives of the covered in 1000 pandemic know the threat of jihadist attacks have scaled back the turnout that's because the presidency is up

for grabs mohammed bazoo is the candidate from the ruling usually end party for democracy and socialism he is promising continuities his opponent money probably says jobs and to improve their wellbeing of needy ends but as one the next president to talk about these issues when the sound of the mic is so not so but sound that whoever comes to power it's the same for us. that the next president should think of the poor. and. i was to have been there the much less when they that frankly under the care for children up to the age of 5 is awful i expect the next president to improve the lives of children and. the companies themselves and i don't think any president in this country can succeed without focusing on basic needs such as education the mileage.

this is one of the world's poorest countries in fact according to the world bank nearly half of the population lives in extreme poverty so many here are looking for a president who can turn around their fortunes and also ensure their security. as you can see the security forces here are hard to ensure that this out there vault was as both as possible it's a rare between 2 top politicians in this country every party candidate who has occupied several minister your post is running against a former president who is supported by a chorus of of opposition parties each side claims that he's going to win the highest office in the church but obviously this is about the voters they are going to decide this sunday who is going to be the next president of the chair. the

choice of the next president on sunday goes beyond the just casting department the prospect of a smooth transition of power in this country is a big deal and it's a look some event every when you see what might you know as you this election is an opportunity eagerly awaited by the people of new. to witness the transfer of power from an outgoing president to the next one in charge. it is necessary to consolidate the city's ment of the peaceful transfer of power and create the conditions of political and institutional stability politically as chanelle that stability is much needed and its neighbors so whoever wins this sunday vote knows that an uphill task as you had these to continue to tear apart disappear nation. all. and that's how we wrap up the show we'll leave you with these images from

while sparing economic growth. and we'll take you to perve rue where tens of thousands of restaurants have gone bankrupt as a result of the pandemic. this is the daily business and take ferguson welcome to the program. america is back that's the message u.s. president joe biden delivered at the annual munich security conference describing the world as an intersection point between democracy and autocracy he said the transatlantic alliance had for turns on to that of europe and the united states must prepare together for long term strategic competition with china german chancellor angela merkel said the chances for multilateralism has improved as a result of biden's and actions. to unpack what all this means in concrete terms let's bring in financial correspondent jose luis to how well jose this all

sounds very nice but europe and the u.s. are actually engaged in some pretty long running tariff to speed well that change under biden. probably yes a kate but we are still waiting for biden's a u.s. trade representative catherine tell you to be confirmed by the senate something that could happen as soon as next week and then negotiations could start picking up but so far the but in of ministration has shown some will that it's are willing to resolve those trade disputes with the e.u. especially even. tariffs related to the arab case are still in place also. secretary of treasury janet jackson has shown some willingness to for the u.s. to reengage again in negotiations global negotiations stole words a digital tax agreement. now everyone's talk talking about being tough on china but the e.u. has a snake a raid on an investment pact with

a saying what does biden make of that. it doesn't see the very very well according to some sources specially at the time that china has the throne to us as europe's main trading partner these got some concern in washington because europe is a traditional ally of the u.s. but but then but an administration it's a pretty confident that it can rebuild that transatlantic relationship and especially move forward. and how much of that joint long term competition that biden talks but actually where. probably kate but by working together not only with europe but with all their u.s. allies when it comes to very sensitive moderates we're talking about a specific technology maybe national security and acting as a joint front when responding to china if there is any kind of violation of international rules also in the relationship between u.s.

and europe there is a need to strengthen the economic and financial relationship maybe that turns out like the free trade agreement comes into play again facing it down fresno's italy is asked thank you so much. now in another development the united states has officially rejoined the paris climate agreement 3 years after pulling out we're entering the accord was one of the 1st things u.s. president joe biden did after taking office fighting to put the environment top of his policy agenda but what exactly is he planning during his campaign for the wise highs biden spoke of tackling the climate crisis with a green energy revolution as part of that goal he's planning to invest some $1.00 trillion dollars to make the u.s. a 100 percent clean energy economy by 2050 but he did stop short of bombing some environmentally damaging practices to be clear and i know it's

not always comes up we're not going to. protect jobs and grow jobs and that job growth is supposed to come from major investments in research on the development of new carbon free technologies something biden is hoping will create 10000000 new jobs across the country. to talk more about the implications of all of this i'm joined now by asking stein a head of the united nations development program mr steiner welcome to the program nearly every country in the world has signed the paris climate accord how many of them are actually living up to their commitments. quite a number of countries kate because in the paris agreement we always have to recall that we did not yet make commitments that our language what the science is asking us to cut emissions it was the nationally the timing contributions the voluntary

commitments and many countries have actually begun implementing what they committed errors but the report that will actually document the actual emission cuts will soon emerge from the climate change her mentioned secretariat but it is clear that as we approach the next problem of the parties that paris agreement has already built into a raising of the level rubbish after 5 years this is the crucial moment in the 2021 when essentially bishan and the commitments of what happens in the next 5 years after come closer to where the science is sending us emission reductions have to happen but there are countries such as india also the united states countries in europe that have been emission cuts and there have been significant steps taken in terms of the commitments made in 2015 and many people might have some difficulty envisioning how you can cuss and nations at the same time as promoting economic growth can you give us some best case example of how to do this. well quite a number of countries both in the developed and developing world have actually been

able to do that because take even you know the economy and the country that has today rejoined the paris agreement the united states has actually been having its emission levels not significantly related to some of the investments and the policies that were rather taken by the previous administration and have played out in the period of the last 4 to 5 years we have also seen countries in europe reducing emissions and in many developing countries it still have a significant catching up to do for example in their energy infrastructure we see it happening of economic growth from emissions these are the signals that no need to be reinforced but essentially the future of economic development the future our global energy economy will actually leverage significant new investments that will drive economic growth that will create jobs your president biden speak to today and indeed the projections including from the international renewable energy agency show us that the economy has a should. have significant investments that will drive economic growth create jobs

and even in the short term coming out of college 19 the green recovery now is beginning to shape the energy markets of tomorrow so that is the outlook and certainly it is not one that validates the notion that cutting emissions well actually could tell economic growth. now back to climate change requires the kind of long term thinking that is often absent in politics what kind of what and i think like you always do just to promote a more sustainable mindsets among leaders. if you saw the secretary know this afternoon and also yesterday speaking to the net 0 commitments basically we now have a growing number of countries and if you take the total emissions globally close to 2 thirds of the world's economies emissions have now committed to net 0. 2050 now for some that is a long distance into the future in fact it is not that far off when you look at the

energy transition or as rapid as the united nations development program our task right now is to work alongside countries who are looking at that transformation of their energy system that transport systems it is investment in a new energy technology in energy efficiency while also establishing access to electricity for instance in the rural economies on the continent of africa that are execution and require massive investment in order to have access to clean energy these are the directions that we see as critical from moving forward i think steiner thank you very much thank you. time now for a look at some of the other business stories making news germany is donating an additional $1800000000.00 to the world's trade organizations vaccine program for poorer nations kovacs the move came during the virtual g. 7 meeting other countries have also up their commitments the u.s. has pledged another $2000000000.00. in you antitrust regulators have cleared with
