the provoked amusement and anger in equal measure. young, but i hope germany never has to go through what we are going through right now. all of it never has to feel what we are feeling. so mitchell, i am only, but if the situation were reversed, we would help you. yes, i would wait, but not under one of these gas pipeline between russia and germany. north 22 is the other major point of contention. the pipeline is complete, but is yet to be commissioned, and ukraine hopes never will be granted. the pipeline would allow russia supplied gas customers, western europe, without the need for ukraine's pipeline network, allowing the kremlin to destabilize ukraine, ukraine. what's it cancelled immediately? is preemptive sanctioned sir. moscow that the west means business or berlin refuses to spell out in public. what exactly it would do if russia were to invade berlin,

called a tactical ambiguity, key of spect, germany of trying to salvage a lucrative business project, regardless of the security implications. with no sign for now that germany is willing to give any ground either on weapons for a mock pulling all stream to olive shoals has his work cut out to convince his ukrainian host that he has their interests at heart, that they can trust him to negotiate away at this crisis when he goes to moscow, they w correspondent, nicolai file that report is joins us now from the ukrainian a capital. welcome, nick. so what can chancellor sholtes do to earn care or ukraine's trust again? well, i think it's going to be about cash. ukraine's economy is suffering right now already without a single bullet. having been fired and government basically unable to raise money on the settle debt markets. the currency under a lot of pressure. investors putting planned investments in ukraine on i said that money would be very welcome, would help to short the ukraine government and supports living sales here in

ukraine. but the ukranian government is still intent on the monument weapons. we heard from the ambassador to germany, even just yesterday that ukraine was 12000 enter tank missiles from germany. so no sense here. they're going to back down and politely, just keep quiet on over these requests. right, and, and germany course is one of a growing number of western governments telling their people to leave ukraine. how's that going down there? i think definitely see those images of diplomats at the airport trying to get out in a hurry and bags being packed and operations being while down is cut through with ukraine's in a way that all the big politics and u. s. intelligence briefings about russian potential operations, hearing ukraine really didn't. those went over people's heads, but seeing that flight to being counsel that people are getting out has really made ukrainians, think about their imposition. and whether they'll have to use the cases that many of them are prepared in case of emergency and get out in a hurry. so definitely a sense that tensions arising the ordinary people are now finally, really feeling this here and give. okay, nick,

thank you for that. nick connelly in care let's get the german perspective from a d w political correspondent, nina hossa. unless start with that same question that nina, what can no law showed? so i offer a you great or indeed russia in this situation and well, if so it's tweeted this morning that he demands immediate signs of de escalation from moscow. so he'll closely coordinate his strategy towards vladimir putin with president zalinski from ukraine. today the german government say that they're still convinced that tuesday will not be the last chance, and that talks will continue even after shows has left must go to war, can essentially still be avoided, is germany official position. and that's where demi's view, of course, differ somewhat from that of some of its allies. so they do intend to keep russia at the negotiating table for now. and they also make it clear at the same time that aggression would come at a very high price for russia and that there would be severe consequences. but

shaw's nick said it has still not said explicitly that not stream to would be part of the sanctions packages. only implied it, at least in public, and all of so just probably also not going to announce delivery of tanks or similar heavy weapons. but of course, gemini could send money to ukraine and can outline in detail to vladimir putin just how costly it would be. fine to evade tricky. well ok, nina, stay with us. we're going to take a quick look at the new immunity security report, which is being unveiled at this hour ahead of the munich security conference. that's one of the world's main forums for discussions on international security policy. and every year it looks to be current security challenges facing the international community. this year, the focus is on growing tensions in eastern europe when the crisis between russia and ukraine. it also looks at the g, a political implications of the wes retreat from afghanistan, the engagement of the international community in the saw held region, and what can be done to reduce persistent global inequality.

so let's go back to a neither harder and neither a wide range of topics as you'd expect there. but these tensions in eastern europe and over ukraine overshadowing pretty much everything. well yeah, and some people are saying that all our shows could be the last international lead attack to get this opportunity to sit down with this meeting is scheduled for duration of 5 hours and actually try and prevent war. so of course, the ongoing crisis in ukraine will certainly be the focus in the press conference happening now here in berlin, where the report is being presented. and the munich security report address is the ongoing prices in ukraine against the background of letting me prudence wider intentions. because what so difficult for western allies in this crisis is that they have to admit that they don't know what positions intentions are. and so the report stress is again the root cause of this crisis that putin essentially

considered the collapse of the soviet union in the 1990 s a great disaster. and that russia is tempted to take advantage of europe thrift to correct the military political results of 30 years ago. ok, thanks about nina. d. w. political correspondent need a hot russian figure skating star camilla value eva can compete of the beijing olympics as follows. a decision by the court of arbitration for sport, the 15 year old help the russians when the team event last week with then reports of a positive doping test for a hot medication from december emerged court rule that value eva should not be professionally suspected ahead of a full hearing and to her case, she's favorite to win gold at the women's individual event, which takes place tomorrow. not a candidate where police have broken up protests against corona virus restrictions which had been blocking unimportant trade route with the united states. a blockade

of trucks and cars had stopped the flow of commerce across the ambassador bridge was north america's busiest border crossing. but demonstrate is that a lodge of protest still occupying parts of the canadian capital ottawa, to the annoyance of local residence. after a week long stand off at the ambassador bridge police in windsor, ontario have arrested dozens of protesters and cleared away vehicles that had blocked the vital highway. i'm frustrated that were on day 7 of this. i mean this, i could have told you from the 1st hour that this is not going to end well, unless we get in there and cut the, the head off the snake very, very quickly. this is a crucial order cross. and we're talking about $400000000.00 a day that crosses at this one border crossing. so the financial impact, you know, to now is, is nearing $3000000000.00 international economy. that's huge. the situation in canada's capital ottawa remains far from resolved trucks block the city center and

protesters camp out in front of parliament residents have had enough. you're not free to go anywhere you want your city. i mean, there's an illegal occupation happening there. the rule of law doesn't exist a few blocks away. and so, i mean it's, i guess it's intimidating. police have been reluctant to clear out protesters as long as they are children with them. oh, well there's children here and unfortunately parents are using their children. and so i don't know the place is really tough situation for the police because i know violence, it should not happen. so and i, i had to police are really tough situation. candidates. prime minister justin shadow has told protests there's, it's time to go home. they don't seem to be listening that's where india were. the top course in the southern states of car not occur as expected to rule on whether

schools have the power to bond the wearing of his jobs. and muslim girls in the state have been asked to comply with about until the decision is made. critics accused prime minister in the render modi's nationalist government of discriminating against religious minority. last week, hundreds of women, cities across india and pakistan took to the streets to protest about several muslim girls wearing jobs. in con, i think i've already been denied entry to their schools. let's join d, w correspondent, mini right child re in do p in connecticut, province where the protest begun. welcome, what are people hoping to hear that today? well, hello phil, i am in the city of go to be where this issue the entire issue began. and the new thing is that the government implemented section 144, which basically around school educational institutions, which basically prohibits people from gathering web that had one reason why we do

not see a lot of people on the road today. and about the hearing, i'd say more than hope people are concerned because of course the situation has been dense for the past few days, considering the issue that has been going on. but interested in the local that i for to hear see that while they are concerned what they really want to speak and they want is the point distance. and do you see that this issue has been out of proportion because of all additions? basically from what bank wanted to call to because the state goes to election next year. also, what about the yearning, the fortunately, the yearning has began, but we don't know what to expect. we may get an order or a judgement today, or the court made up of the judgement and conduct a few more hearing on the matter. we'll have to wait for that. right? and this is an issue just for con africa, proven sort of protests spread to other indian states. hey, it's definitely the past few weeks have seen reports of protest, both anti her job and pro his job happening in other parts of the country and the north and the west everywhere. and also there also have been some reports of some schools and other parts of the country and the report for specifically those faith,

which i have been doing, which i'll be ruled by the national party of the party, didn't the body to be there. some schools reading objections to go coming, reading her job. now again, as the local said here, the particular that this all is being done by a board additions for that for their work on it. and that this issue should not go beyond a particular limit on the should be. all right, and just give us an idea of what's behind this. how do schools, how do the politicians justify this bad? well, it's not going to port additions to justify all. both the call is basically because of the university colleges which are the senior years of school and the call just they feel that they also students to not where they had job because bear the particular uniform which has been prescribed and look for to look for when the students who are being addicted again, say that you know why there was not any issue before this. they're not getting any clear answers. and i thought that off on a patient on the side that order to see why just to find a bad thing, they should not be applauded to be just identity. and that goes against, you know,

educational institutions. but there are no clear on so it's getting people all waiting to see what happens in the hearing today. thank you so much for that. so many, many are trying to challenge and do p. thank you. is remind of our top story atlas. ah, gemini, chancellor, olaf shelters on his way to the ukrainian, the capital key. if i made growing fears of imminent russian invasion was expected to offer, ukraine will not make support, but no weapons visit comes as i see a staff full after the eastern rebel house. if he of the new gal alphas will have more world news at the top of the hour next on the w doc film, not quite green, the energy transitions downsize, i've got a son are driven by merciless greed, others fighting the destruction land grabbers are exploit,
