before they're going to there's a company this need to take on they need to maybe do with it may have made a blunder. after 27 hours in the row and go well says he could sleep for 2 days but a friend with a sick father calls. agrees to help knowing that in reality there's not much he can do. meanwhile germany has sent its 2nd shipment of emergency aid to india the 1st consignment included 120 ventilators and medicines this time germany is also sending over a group of health experts to train members of the indian red cross several european countries and other nations including the us and taiwan also joined the a dish that. it's a heavy load for this military transport machine but what's in these containers this desperately need it at giant oxygen generator to help
3:05 pm
a covert 1000 hospital in delhi. would be ideal conditions the generator can produce up to 400000 liters of oxygen a day. supplying around 28 patients in intensive care so. it's the 2nd batch of emergency help from germany and one of many organized by the international community for the soldiers involved it's more than a routine flight. in this case because it's a long flight and we are transporting cargo that has never been flown this way before careful preparation and planning was required but as this is about saving lives you can sense an increased motivation from everyone. but. the plane is on its way to delhi a team of german med. expenses awaiting to install the oxygen generator relief from
3:06 pm
patients who gets help. from denny i'm now joined by the german ambassador to india. missile into a germany joins more than 40 countries who have pledged assistance a does the germany's help make any real difference there on the ground. you know i think in a country where you have 1300000000 people this question is always a rhetorical question because that's just so many people but yes it makes a difference. to health situation in the country as it bridges john martinkus your program has shown italy so it's john mattick enter into lead colts bit of 00 spittle best of luck oath oxygen dellec oath sometimes the doctors the person though there is so is so striking so it was important to act fast and germany was among the 1st countries to reject the critique of other the few
3:07 pm
countries and so we often already on the way i was 2nd to believe them into government as it was already built before that from private companies and corporate companies but this is the 2nd windows to flight which is companies just touching down tomorrow any brings along quite some relief for oxygen seeking solutions but is it enough though it could germany do more i mean what with sense so far isn't that just a drop in the bucket. yes but every drop in the bucket is useful it's not enough yes but in the combination you mention 40 countries but 40 countries already make a little bit of a difference and you know the let's let let's take the oxygen plant the trees bring in 2 more it will be installed it's in $23.00 days and you can provide all straight you for 7 for hundreds of people of patients so each site saves already hundreds of people slice and take the other the really cheap drugs in those few days that was just on the 20 oxy chain ventilators own they are the right price told us today
3:08 pm
only in 3 different hospitals 220 which means they say $520.00 lives so it makes a difference and you could say $120.00 it's not. it's a small number in comparison to the 4000 deaths every day but you know a few 100 people or less that use it's makes a big difference in what we've heard from our correspondent early have a logistics and supply chains that that is a big big part of the problem is that something that germany can help with. you know a big part of the problem is that this virus is very aggressive and that is a country where you have huge challenges challenges are it's such a huge country it's such a densely populated country where separation and distances and mosque for reach up lewis no money for the next state what's so dismay shuras are much easier to be
3:09 pm
implemented in europe than it is in india so yes use us as sort of and then don't forget that this is a pun to make there you have to be just numbers many people in the let's say in the foreign ministry in the red cross in other ministries are down 50 percent because of course it's even our embassy style and 30 percent because of course so you have we do stuff we chose to take this crisis and whenever you have a crisis an international prize in an open demi can do such dimensions it's more then you have incoming flights a coming no you have to register it you have to i'm package you have to repeat like it used to use it in history and this is slike work on this so i would ask for a little face and we don't have time i know every hour counts but. challenges would be a challenge for every country in the world. germany's ambassador to india by tellin thank you very much for talking to us what. now some of the other

many residents have taken to the streets saying corruption and poor construction standards are to blame. germany's government says it will set more ambitious targets to reduce c o 2 emissions that comes a week after a landmark court ruling that the country's current climate change legislation was insufficient germany in our plans to cut emissions by 65 percent by 2030 compared to 9911 also aims to be nearly carbon neutral by 2045 that's 5 years earlier than initially planned climate is among the leading issues ahead of september's general elections with the greens ahead in several polls. so let's bring in chief political editor here to talk about this so why does the government have to change their goals. well the short answer is that constitutional
3:12 pm
court ruling last week that simply said the german government's ponce fall wasn't good enough and that it wasn't really taking into consideration of the future generations shifting too much of the burden there but the government had until the end of 2022 to do that saying that basically it no longer needed to be the merkel government so what effectively happened is that the race is suddenly on to have climate as an issue within this election campaign and to demonstrate that the government can deliver very fast and that's why we're seeing this legislation being conducted here in lightning speed despite the fact that the social democrats and a grammatical conservatives weren't really expected to come to an agreement so fast the big question now is how long this will hold and whether this will actually come into effect beyond that 26 of september when elections take place here and many. of you really think that climate change is so high up on the agenda of the german
3:13 pm
voter that dangle in auckland and the government being rushed to get this climate legislation through. well let's face it the pandemic is highest up on the agenda and i don't really want to speculate what will be top of the agenda come september we may well be talking a lot more about the economy but what happened is that the greens here and many were the 1st to come out with their election program and that includes a significant chunk on the climb and now there was this constitutional court ruling basically giving those measures in place illegal dressing down and that's why we're seeing the government demonstrate that they can act on this no doubt climate will still be an election issue what has happened now is that germany's going beyond the green deal to most climate targets that the e.u. has which is climate neutrality by 2050 it's now 2045 and for comparison the greens want to be climate neutral by 2030 so the german economy is already suffering in
3:14 pm
the pandemic how will business react to these new c o 2 targets. well that's an interesting question they won't like it is the sort. and that will be the big challenge now that's also where we've seen the rhetoric change here in the conservative count of angela merkel's party in lhasa to use that chancellor kansas was talking on monday about the new challenge of integrating the economy and the green ains and that this was now the task that a lot will be in the details here and those won't be set in stone within this legislation that we expect which ministry which segment of the german economy has to do what to achieve these new goals a lot of that we expect to be discussed within the next government germany loves to be a vote model on the on climate change but there's already been talk of just listen to the chief talking on german t.v.
3:15 pm
saying that the european solution is needed on the national targets useless is that the way forward. well the big question is do you believe in having individual countries actually taking the lead and putting something on the agenda the green deal is i'd argue a bit more than the lowest common denominator within the european union the question now is with this being so high up on the political agenda here and those elections also partly focusing at least on climate whether germany will actually be a pacemaker within the e.u. after september elections. chief political editor thank you michel. and we have some breaking news coming in the facebook account just announced its oversight board has upheld its ban on former us president double trump social media
3:16 pm
network trump's accounts 4 months ago for inciting violence that led to the deadly jamming the 6 capital riots a group of rouge and activists have filed a criminal complaint in germany against president alexander lukashenko and members of his regime for crimes against humanity they say they have documented more than 100 examples of violence and systematic torture the alleged abuses happened during the government crackdown on protests against discredited elections which because franco claims to have one last case is being brought in germany on the principle of universal jurisdiction that allows a country to prosecute crimes against humanity wherever they were committed. and we can all talk to a whole lot because he's one of the lawyers who filed this criminal complaint as a cause it tell us more about your clients what did they experience.
3:17 pm
well our finest experienced. men actually peaceful protesters. in different cities they were. participated peaceful demonstrations. so how likely is it that a president looking sankoh all members of his regime really have to stand in front of a judge in germany well it's very simple if. other member of his regime house in turkey or actually there's an exhibition or they will have to stand trial. so how likely is that that this that's going to happen. i think it's going to take a while for all the options but it's a move where you dismiss. the victims and alert the people that it's not simply. what they're doing. so if they would
3:18 pm
have to stand trial what would they face if their complaint really it was successful. well it's crimes against humanity so it's hard to really. prosecutor. the trial and work on this. we're looking at. here if actually this is. so why do you think it is largely a symbolic act isn't it why do you think it's important to find such complaints. well i would call that a little bit if this really. nazi crimes after 45 were not prosecuted might. mean for a very long time we have the latest try outs 207-2090. has developed a judicial system and protects human rights respected and i think we should
3:19 pm
therefore actually protect our colleagues at our family friends. and take action because we're talking about crimes against humanity. is there a precedent do you have any example of such a lawsuit to bring being brought forward in places like germany as i've been having been so successful yes we have received find out where this syria. who fled to germany and then sells this island seekers where that process in a trial because of their actions taken in syria so it's a very present to the case you know against us or non-causal one of the lawyers who filed a criminal complaint against the belorussian president lukashenko here in germany thank you very much for the time thank you. sophie showed it
