7:07 pm
apologies were just having some technical problems are there. but you heard my colleague nicoli reporting there from my voucher earlier. well, in the wake of the alleged atrocities, germany's foreign minister has declared 40 officials at the russian embassy in berlin to be, quote, undesirable persons. an act that effectively expels them from the country. on a not bare box summons russia's ambassador to germany to inform him of the expulsions she later spoke of decisively increasing germany support to ukraine's armed forces and tightening economic sanctions. take a lesson. give me a sec. i'm involved in assembly images of the past weekend. have once again highlighted a new, brutal dimension of this war with the most serious war crimes and crimes against humanity. and that is why i made it clear over the weekend that we must not only close the remaining loopholes in the sanction system,
7:08 pm
but that we must also intensively and rigorously implement this package on mit blake, and with regard to ukraine's self defense. as i said, we will now also examine things that we have not examined before. and there was the german foreign minister speaking just moments ago, dw political corresponding thomas ferris, on the story for you, thomas, the riffing image is coming out of butcher. are they galvanizing germany to do more? absolutely, and this decision by the german government announced by germany foreign minister internet above. and alina babble, certainly points in that direction. she stressed that this was about countering rushes in humanity. and as such, she already informed the russian ambassador of that decision. we're talking here mostly of relatives, of employees, of the russian embassy here in abilene. and i babble clearly stressed that these people were working in germany against germany's freedom and social cohesion. and
7:09 pm
at the same time, they were an am quoting here, a threat to those who search protection in germany. so this is very much a strong decision by germany. we've also heard, by the way that russia has already said it will react to germany's announcement to expel those 40 diplomats. we don't know exactly what that reaction will be, but we have heard from russian sources saying that they will certainly react. so this certainly points to a new dimension also from germany's political reaction to this situation with the foreign minister. also stressing that germany will strengthen increasing sanctions against russia working hand in hand with its european allies on that. on that note, sir thomas, this decision by bearable comes hard on the heels of another very significant decision made or just moments before that. looking tell us about that. and that
7:10 pm
decision came from robert havoc whose germany's vice chancellor energy minister basically saying that germany will temporarily take control of gas from germany. so the germans subsidiary of gas from the russian energy giant. there were different technical aspects that explain this decision. but from a political perspective, it is very relevant because it basically means that germany's showing that he can also use energy as a political leverage when it comes to ensuring supplies of gas to this country and also diversifying its energy sources. as the german government has stressed on various occasions that it is intending to do so, all in all big political decisions coming from germany this afternoon when it comes to the crises to the war in ukraine is over your political or correspondent thomas farrah reporting. thank you. so much on the war and ukraine has
7:11 pm
prompted many european countries to take steps to decrease their reliance on russian gas and accelerates a shift towards green energy. but experts say climate action is still not happening fast enough. united nations climate scientists have just released a landmark report on just exactly what needs to happen to ensure a livable future on the planet. it says serious cuts to carbon pollution are necessary, and the world needs to act. now. they're the silent killer, destroying our planet. but for decades, fossil fuels have been powering our economy band, our lifestyle, all that needs to stop. i'm soon if humanity have a fight in charge of the battle against climate change with immediately and very fast. so that's no question about that.
7:12 pm
in september, the intergovernmental panel on climate change sounded the alarm that people are warming the planet faster than ever than in february. they explained how that had devastated ecosystems and livelihoods. now that telling the world what we can do to save ourselves but even as well as lead us of sign treaties to slow global warming, dangerous carbon pollution has continued to climb. the result is a hotter, less hospitable planet. well leaders have pledged to limit warming to well below 2 degrees celsius and ideally $1.00
7:13 pm
degrees by the end of the century. but their policies put the planet on track for close to 3 degrees of woman. it's the miss gay to interact with that because we have so much this only me at a time to a soft us and a lot of dynamics going to the wrong direction. so it feels like and quite important to get measured done now, and not used, excuse us to delay these for any further delay. the climate scientists found risks missing a brief and rapidly closing window to secure a livable and sustainable future for old the challenge now is getting society to shift away from fossil fuels and to do so fast enough. the grammy's got a dose of reality this year when ukrainian present villamor zalinski appeared in a pre taped speech, amid the ongoing invasion of his country by russia, making
