ah, all, we can be the generation that ends it for good. malaria must die. i millions can live ah, ah ah, this is dw news live from berlin tonight. ukraine vows to take back crimea from the russian ukrainian president zalinski told world leaders to date. if the war with russia will not end until the russian annexation of primedia and also coming up tonight, germany, chancellor, in canada,

in search of new energy sources but ending dependence on russian oil and gas is not going to be easy. and where is the water unprecedented droughts around the world connected with climate change tonight we ask, is there any solution to our global water scarcity? ah, i'm break off to our viewers watching on p b. s. in the united states, into all of you around the world, welcome. almost 6 months into the russian invasion of ukraine and the future of the crimean peninsula is more than ever. part of the calculus for held to end the war to day ukrainian, president zalinski promised to do everything possible to recover crimea, which was illegally annexed by russia. back in 2014 other western leaders express

their support for that. during a summit today of germany's transfer over shoulds, he pledged today additional military aid for ukraine to the tune of 500000000 euros . here's what other world leaders said at the summit today. when the russian regime blames sanctions for the food crisis around the world, they're engaging in disinformation. we need to continue fighting russian dis information. that's why canada will create a dedicated team to help increase our capacity to monitor and detect russian and other state sponsored different dis information. the international community also has to engage actively in the long term reconstruction of ukraine. rearing in mind the size of the challenge, we need to accelerate the work that we started the new randall in support of this process, like capacity as president of the g 7. and together with the pin commission, i will host an international high level expert conference for reconstruction and

dawn and october. we will never recognize the illegal annexation of crimea and save us to poll by the russian federation. we are deeply concerned about the human rights violations in the crimean peninsula. the disappearances, the torture, the killings, the persecution of crimean talked ours, the intimidation and incarceration of journalists, lawyers, and human rights defenders. this is the dark reality of put in such a passion. the european union will tirelessly work with the ukrainian authorities and our partners to expose these violations, to hold those responsible, accountable, and to support the victims. we are with you, a strong works of support there from europe. earlier i spoke with our correspondent

mathias burlingame in keven. i asked him what this latest round of pledges from western allies, what it all means for ukraine. every weapon that arrives in the ukraine is seen as a relief here because the biggest problem of the ukranian army is still that they are, they have less weapons and less ammunition than the russians. this has shifted somewhat or with the western weapons arriving and being more effective actually than the russian weapons being more able to target specifically a targets behind the frontline, for example, ammunition dumps and, and, and, and a strategic objects. and that has of course, east the pressure on the ukranian army that was very high in, in may. but still russia is her, has much more ammunition and is shelling indiscriminately along the front lines and her ukraine, things every ukrainian. so as i have talked to says,

we have no more weapons, we can defend ourselves better, but it's not enough to eventually start an offensive or to move on fasts. and all of this month, he is on the eve of a national holiday in ukraine that be independence day. we're going to talk about that in just a moment. but 1st, we want to take a look at how people are marking independence day, most hosting the national flag. i had a few cranes independence day, a usually festive commemoration, but not this year, as it also marked 6 months since russia invasion. me calling no his name, he will never recognize any one's flag of our land and in our sky. navy is as we are always ready to defend our blue and yellow colored c. i ask you now to commemorate with a moment of silence the heroes who gave their lives so that over years i think larry did deli ukraine, his band, bigger celebrations, of a fear of fresh rush and strikes in keith,

whatsoever. not every one shares that concern. europe was to live with joy. we do feel a bit tense, but it doesn't disrupt our lives. this is our reality. and then the wire, the call. no, i have no feeling of insecurity. i come from her keith, it is dangerous there. don't keith? i don't have the feeling. i've been living here for a month. there's no, no insecurity. code blue, vietnam we it of course we know that there can be attacks. but when we are worried, we can hide a limb. the mulatto who yeah. dorski. yes. can. we can feel the tension a bit. that's just too much information about and that has an effect on you would do otherwise and everything else seems to be working. the business and transporting for lots are, i'm a suburb here. i'll talk. what else can you do from to your cities that sir hon. you can't hide in the basement for everson football season? is precious life has to go on. you remove the finish. yeah,

it is the eve of independence day in ukraine monte, if there were reports today that people are once again fleeing the capital city, fearing there could be more russian airstrikes. talk to me about this, this the sense of renewed threat or what have you seen in her? so what we see if you're in the streets of kiva, then you wouldn't say that people are scared, people are still out in the cafes and the restaurants out there. they have this, there's this, sir, they call it a parade of burnt our tank, sir. they brought to the city center or the burnt old russian tanks and people are walking around. they're curious, taking pictures and so on. but if you talk to people, of course some have left the city some have or said, okay, i'd rather spend this week at my mother's house somewhere in the countryside or, or, or, or, or are taking other precautions because of course, the,

the threat is there, this is very symbolic day, and the authorities, the americans are services and the ukrainian authorities have warned that there might be strikes on key of for this weekend. so here in the capitol, people are aware and of course in other parts of the country as well. we've seen that before, that even when the capital was relatively quiet or other cities that were never at the front line or anywhere close, would suddenly be hit with many casualties and earth. they did. there is definitely a sense that something might happen, but people are defiant as always. it amusement he is girl, a girl reporting to light from keep on the eve of i think we can say the most unusual independence days in ukraine. my dear thank now to the impact of this war on europe's energy supplies. germany's chance or olaf schultz says that canadian liquefied natural gas could play a major role in germany,

shift away from russian gas import. speaking the day of the business forming canada chancellor's dress, that canada is. germany's partner of choice is tries to end its dependence on russian gas before supplies. possibly dwindled. this coming winter shield is on an official visit to canada, which is a major producer of fossil fuels him the so far has not been a major supplier of those fuels to europe. hold coffee, w corresponded hahn's broad. he told us how realistic these hopes for canada's l in g imports really are at the moment is not feasible at all. canada doesn't have a single export terminal to export liquefied natural gas and certainly not on its east coast on the atlantic coast, which would be closest to europe, closest to germany. and germany doesn't have a single terminal yet to import such gas. it's busy building some and hoping that they will be ready early in the next year about it. the other problem is that

canada's gases of mostly in the west of the country, it would have to be transported to the east in some way, maybe through a pipeline. all of that infrastructure doesn't yet exist. it's so canada's prime minister just introduce has been very cagey about these wishes being formulated by shawls. he said that a business case would have to be made for canada to be able to consider this. this would have to pay for itself. or, in fact, make a profit, and natur is not clearly clearly not the case at the moment. maybe in the medium term, maybe in the next 2 or 3 years. if prices stay high, and if the infrastructure problems can be solved, then there is a possibility of such exports. at the moment, it's not possible to talk. and we understand hans, that germany kinda there are set to, to sign what's known as a hydrogen deal. what more do we know about that? well, this concerns what's called green hydrogen. that's a production of hydrogen by using clean energy by using carbon neutral energy. this

is thought of as something that could happen in the northeast of canada, canada, where there's a lot of wind power available. and this is hick liquefied hydrogen could then be exported for instance to germany. this is a project that is also thought about as a medium term plan as something that reaches far into the future into an industry that could be carbon neutral and old of shows the german chancellor saying that canada could be a major producer of such green hydrogen but it's something that could only happen at the earliest about 3 years time. so it's also something that where their plans are being late. well, into the future. nothing that's going to happen very quickly. and it comes as germany breezes itself for the winter in rising energy costs. what are the prospects for this country? well, i mean there 2 concerns here. one is that people are afraid that they might not be

able to heat their homes in the winter or to soften that the storage facilities in germany are being sold and are almost full at the moment. somewhere around 80 percent is a possibility of getting through the winter without really getting cold. industry, on the other hand, is not quite clear as to what extent industry can be supplied by a gas at the moment. general government is desperately trying to find new sources, and that's also demonstrated by this trip to canada. des tons brought with the latest to night here in berlin hunt, as always, thank you. in his a quick look now at some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world, brazil's far right president general sanara has attempted to calm fears that he'll try and overturn the results of october's presidential election. if those results do not go his way, he says that he will respect the outcome as long as the voting is clean and transparent. firefighters in portugal captured

a phenomenon on camera today as they battled a wildfire in the north. you see of right here fire tornadoes can dramatically worse and serious blazes, making them spread rapidly like several european countries. portugal have seen an increased number of wild flyers this year. poland, prime minister was among those who paid their final respects to day to tech la uni of it. she was the world's 2nd oldest person when she passed away this month, at the age of $116.00, malaysia's ex prime minister. now she browser is going to prison for 12 years. a court to day up held his conviction in a corruption scandal. now she browser was a key figure in the plundering of a sovereign wealth fund, where 4 and a half 1000000000 euros went missing. he's already had to pay a fine of nearly 50000000 euros. the form of prime minister, making his way into cold inside judges unanimously upheld his

2020 conviction on charges related to a multi 1000000000 euro corruption scandal. the nat geo support is outside the verdict was a heavy blow. the other malaysians welcomed the results from that from, from the bottom of my heart, i am happy with justice is served and he deserved it monday. but the economic center i've been, we're be waiting for this type of visit for so long. finally, we get something, a st closure for all of us. for malicious. we feel that we have the 5th justice program, listen people that it's been a years long journey towards that justice with the jeep 1st being convicted of corruption, 2 years ago on to being found guilty of stealing money from state investment fund,

one m d b with more than 42000000 ring it or 9400000 euros ending up in his private bank account. just a tiny fraction of the more than 1000000000 euros prosecute to say, went to accounts linked to him. kiss the scandals found mass protests when it 1st came to light in 2015. the land was a key factor in his shock election defeat in 2018. i accept the verdict of the people. while the latest ruling cement the ex prime ministers dizzying full from grace with 4 other trials underway, his legal woes afar from over world wide more than 2000000000 people do not have access to clean drinking water. it's a result of poor management and waste as well as climate change. here's a look at water scarcity around the globe. drought has ravaged northern mexico

where farm animals are dying from a lack of water. harvest have been disrupted. fisheries have been cold, as the country experience is one of the worst droughts there in more than 3 decades in hungary. lakes have turned into patches of dried mud and low water supplies are putting while wife at risk. farmers in the region worry that they may not have enough green pastures to feed their livestock. many european countries are facing their worst droughts on record. and drought has also dried up much of china's largest fresh water lake. the poor young lake which connects to what is the world's 3rd longest river has been reduced. you see it right here to just a quarter of its usual size, as water levels continue to drop farmlands. and one of china's he rice growing regions as farmland are now under threat or this year like in many countries across europe. there was little rain across the u. k. experts or calling

for solutions to make sure that future droughts do not spell disaster for people and the comp patched fields. it's not what you would expect to find in northern england, but this is a summer of unprecedented heat and now of drought. climate change is making these extreme weather events more frequence. this is something different now this summer, so i think it's down to all of us to think about where water comes from in it. when, when you turn on the tap or you have a shower, that was a, comes out of rivers like this. that means we're taking it away from the barman while taking it away from a farm at the could be using it to eric a o. harvey's crops that we will need what a scarcity is also an issue of distribution. something that can be addressed through improved infrastructure. we have enough water in this country. it's

normally in the west and in the winter. and we need investment in infrastructure to have it in the right place at the right time. so there's enough water for people, food, and the environment. this will not be the last drought. agriculture uses 70 percent of accessible fresh water globally. drawing more and more water from the environment is creating mass, biodiversity loss. environmentalists say it also creates a cycle of less water overall for people and the environment. we need to bring back the weapons that we've lost across our countryside around might have sent these have disappeared in the last 100 years. we need to make space for that water. we're going to see increasing conditions like this and we will see crops failing if we don't take these kinds of actions. as the u. k. registers it's hottest sama, every measure will be needed to combat climate change and growing. washer scarcity of professor i said this is an expert on water management at the university of

glasgow. he told me why we are so vulnerable to droughts. and what we can do about the biggest problem, really ease it, crisis in management. we have plenty of water from actually everything we want. but our management last 4050 years have been unsustainable into an introduction. you mentioned that eland is fitting a doubt. but the fact is, if you look at the english will, english and who are to companies 20 percent of the water, i've simply lost. so we have really poor management all over the world. and we have blaming it in water scarcity. if we meant, if we improve our management skill, then even though it's climate change which prolonged out and for on flights, we have enough management expertise and enough water to make sure we get on to the

shout ears and managed to jo or provide master planning. professor, that's bed, that's quite a statement makes it so you're saying bet are despite the realities of global warming, there is enough water on the planet. and if we would just learn how to better management, we would be able to solve this problem of water scarcity. that is correct, and this is the real problem. there is no, no lack of physical resource of water. but what we have is a real crisis management report. i would suspect i would suggest that these 2 are very different. and is there a mindset change that needs to happen? i know that you've said that many people don't understand the value of water. well, how do we change that? should we make water more expensive? and of course in water, for example, you mentioned correctly in the beginning of the program, 70 percent of water,

he se used for agriculture. i don't know. he even a single country anywhere charges for agriculture. water use. i even for domestic water use most parts of the war. it is either free or highly subsidized. so unless there is a price on the water, people who never realize its value. and the 2nd thing is throughout our history, we have taken water for granted. we have used the misuse lead as who as who rece as much as who's now and the population increase, hired economic activities. and now the climate change. the problem at the escalations have to be different. we have to manage it or water better and infrastructure easy, of course. important. even look at yuki england and wilson say advanced g is since the structure is speaking right now. and so unless we improve dec loss, this will be tremendous. there are some places now they're losing 60 percent of

water from the system. and professor if we looked at water, the way that we look at our energy, for example, particularly here in europe right now with, with the more in ukraine. do you think that would change and stop the wasting of water that we sit? yes, that's that of certainly help. and you have to convince lower policy makers that water has to be an important issue. he not political agenda. in fact, if you look at history, are politicians all over the war, only get interested when there is a long drought or a prolonged flag. no more than the flood disappears. water disappears from the agenda, the only person in the whole world last 30 years. who has been interested in that in water consistently was leak one. you and he puts in the horse work to water management as one of the best in the war in a 20 year period. so we need to political support that to them. professor as it is

was we appreciate your time and your insights tonight, as you say, unfortunately when it's out of sight, it's out of mind. thank you. that is a military invasion of taiwan by china, recent rhetoric and military maneuvers by beijing has made that a possibility and preparing air raid shelters have now become a key part of ty, want civil defense strategy. but not everyone thinks those shelters are enough to w. sherry chant has more faith, yellow, fine sir, everywhere across pie pe. they show the locations and the capacity of thousands of air racial tests where people can hide in case of an attack. now, a smartphone app has been launched that shows a real time map. so uses can quickly find the nearest shelter. official swan to residence, to get familiar with these spots in subway stations,

compacts and the ground shopping malls and ethan basements of private properties. this is one of the many capacity in the city that can also serve as an air, a shelter. however, we cannot the any science of water or emergency supplies and that is a problem advocacy group say many of these shelters are very poorly equipped. fiona hill. mendoza. taiwan is hot and humid and car parks don't have any air conditioning in their own sanitary facilities. it's not suitable to serve as a long term shelter. it's been the wasn't really all katie, at least to super defense efficacy group militia, taiwan association. his organization regularly hose, 1st aid and self defense classes for the pup lake go. apart from the lack of facilities, chair is worried about the reliable s as to these shelters involved, that you all know what happened, how many basements in these residential buildings are occupied. there might be use the storage space and the not properly maintained. val could even be blog to way

who has done lessons. this is of a formal says on top of what will happen in the worst case scenario. if china attacks and analyst at the government fund institute of national defense and security research told us these shelters at different from what many people expect her to says, i do think the conveyor supposed to provide temporary protection on when an air strike occurs. the thinker says that the county of miss oil attacks are usually over very short, right? it says 3 to 4 minutes. continuity among gardens. they might also go on for a couple of hours. so for the so so, so, so facility such as ventilation or drinking water supplies are usually not part of the shelter designs. she says, the bosses i will move on can't be nose for the waco, mia. the most important thing is that people know where the shelters are. chen said, but many taiwanese people have grown numb to bay,

janes repeated shows or falls over the years. so now the government not only has to maintain security facilities, it also faces the challenge of keeping up post vigilance, which makers olympic champion who st boat wants to trademark his famous lightning bolt celebration post. just like michael jordan's slam dunk boat wants to use the silhouette of his distinct to pose. we all know it there. you see it on the number of products. the 36 year old, one multiple olympic titles in world championship golds during his career. and you same boat still holds the world record in the 10200 meter sprint. since ukraine's premier league has started its new football season amid the ongoing war with russia. all games are to be played at empty stadiums because of the risks

involved. several of the leagues clubs are based in territory held by pro russian separatists and have to play in the stadiums of clubs and other regions. for example, the season opener on tuesday between chuck talk don't ask and mentally or he took place in the capitol. keith, it is a reminder, the top story that we are following for you. this. our ukranian president zalinski has bound to fight for control of the region of crimea, which was illegally annexed by russia. in 2014. he spoke to day as an international summit for western leaders promised continued support for ukraine's fight against the russian german transfer. ola schultz also announced an additional $500000000.00 euros in a after a short break. i'll be back to take you through the day. stick around we will be right back with ah,
