changed the world forever? ah, my jillions journey around the world. starts september 7th on d. w. ah. ah. ah, this is dw news live from berlin tonight, the f. b i's reasons for a raid on donald trump's florida home and a newly unsealed document. the u. s. justice department claims that it recovered more than 700 pages of classified documents from the former president mar lago resort. also coming up tonight, they gave us the top code 19 vaccines. now modernity is suing pfizer and by on tech
10:01 pm
for allegedly copying technology. also on the show, the un calling for com, it ukraine's largest nuclear power plant, as inspectors prepared to go inside experts or warning of a nuclear disaster if fighting doesn't stop and, and go as president heading for a 2nd term. his longtime ruling party leads with nearly all of the votes. now camp and its sports, when abnormal becomes somewhat norm professional soccer returns the ukraine along with air side and the constant fear of wool. oh, lou, i break off to our viewers watching a p b as in the united states into all of you around the world. well,
10:02 pm
can we begin on this friday with the latest salvo in donald trump's legal battle with us authorities? even as the former president lays the groundwork for another possible run for the white house, the u. s. justice department says that 14 out of 15 boxes recovered from trump's florida. estate in january contain classified papers. now that has been revealed in a heavily redacted. heavily censored legal document explaining why the f b. i searched the mar logo as state earlier this month. trump is accused of a legally taking sensitive and classified documents. when he left the white house after his 2020 election defeat, i asked our washington bureau chief in his pole. what we know about this newly unsealed affidavit. reverend, let me start by showing our audience the paper which actually broadly f, b i into the how is of the former president in florida is you see it
10:03 pm
is heavily redacted. and why is that it is because the paper could reveal sensitive information and could spice and other sources at risk if they are exposed. that's actually a, the reason why the d o j j did not want his documents to be released. so what it, what it does show is how federal law enforcement justified the search a former president trump home. and that they were concerned that sensitive information regarding intelligence and spying tactics. i would fall into the wrong hands and this could have caused a major national security crisis. it is unusual for an affidavit to be made public, but that has happened and now, and it shows that there was probable cause for the f b. i to think that national security was at risk. so is all of this when you put it together, is this foot donald trump into legal jeopardy. died indeed is
10:04 pm
very unprecedented as pretty much everything regarding the former president. while he himself pondered, responded right away and said this is i quoted a witch hunt. and that he, i caught this again, did nothing wrong and that he was essentially attacked or that i caught this again . we were broken into, but a brand, even he and his legal team suggests that and they played by the law and it is looking more and more as they did break federal law. all that however, could push him to announce, rather sooner than later that he's running again on a for, for the 2020 for presidential election. why? but because he might try to use this opportunity, this momentum to campaign of this event and protect himself as the victim of the justice department. here, the saga continues in his po with the ladies on this unsealed affidavit. it is
10:05 pm
thank you. or they gave the world or what have become the 2 most preferred vaccines against the corona virus, but now they have become enemies headed for court. today the u. s. pharmaceutical modernity filed a lawsuit against pfizer and by on tank over alleged copyright infringement return claims that pfizer working with by on tech of germany copied it's technology to produce their own version of a coven 19 vaccine during the maintains that it filed a patent several years ago which protects the m r in a technology. used to develop the coven 19 vaccine visor, which is also an american company. sir says that it is surprised by this lawsuit. both vaccines, we have to add use this him are in a gene technology. brian abramson, he chairs the u. s. vaccine law conference. he joined me a short while ago from virginia. and i asked him whether this law suit,
10:06 pm
whether it has any merit. when the question was, the last it has married will be very long drawn out in detail. one that will delve into the history of moderne is development of their technology. generally speaking, there are 2 routes by which pfizer will seek to defend itself. one saying that whatever they invented is different enough that it doesn't infringe modernist patterns. and the 2nd would be to attack modern as patents as a well is patent really shouldn't have been issued because this technology would have been obvious to someone who is an expert in the art in the course of developing it. and it will be interesting to see my thumbnail view from having read the complaint is that it's going to be a lot of work for a moderate to prove case. yeah, it sounds like it's going to be a lot of work for the attorneys involved. you're in, we're to more than 2 years into the pandemic,
10:07 pm
almost 2 years. also with this vaccine wouldn't modernity have realized and lodged a complaint sooner. i mean, it just, it seems like the timing of this is really late. well, to a degree its matter of public relations materna had pledged early on in the process that they weren't going to enforce their patents. during the pandemic in march of this year, mo dorner made an announcement saying that basically they felt the pin and they can move to an end mc stage. and they would begin to assert their patterns. although they still continue to say they would not assert them against the smaller countries in the world, the small develop economies. but in the united states, much in europe, of course. now, modernity seems to think that it is fair game to pursue the patterns that it won't be a public relations here for them. because the pandemic has waned to degree. and
10:08 pm
i'm wondering too is, is this going to become the norm as we move into the future with more and more biotech, and genetically developed medications in vaccines that mean the m, r a m r, n, a technology that was used to develop these vaccines? is that a technology that can be patented, that can be owned by a company, or is it, as you said earlier? is it something in science that would easily be identified by a scientist? that would be hard to say that belongs to us? well, 1st of all, litigation between pharmaceutical companies over assertions, that one of them has infringed cancer. the other, it's very common, it happens all the time. is that same kind of that again, moving into a different realm into the realm of, of biotechnology and m r n. a technology am, or any, of course, is a substance. it's found in all of our genes and all of our cells and it's
10:09 pm
a naturally occurring thing. so what i'm a journey is cleaning here is that they develop ways to use m r n a. and to manufacture m r n a that can be used as passing that hasn't been done before. and that's what their patents directed to. it seems to me that would be very difficult for any one company to claim that they have the soul right. to use any technology as a way to fight disease. well, it would definitely be an interesting lawsuit to follow brian abrams and we appreciate your time and your insights tonight. thank you. energy analysts say that russia is destroying natural gas stocks. some of it that should have come to germany right here. they claim massive burnett at a plant near the finished russian border, a wasting $10000000.00 worth of fuel every day. finish residents have reported seeing large players and feeling more heat. the facility prepared russian gas for
10:10 pm
transport to germany. russia has blamed technical issues for reduced supplies, which are flowing through the nord stream one pipe lie. i'm join l by emily mclain of wine start energy, the company analyzing the data from the russian gas plant. it's good to have you with this. let me ask you how do we know that this gas, this is the gas that should be flowing to germany around thanks for having me on and well. so before the war, the port of i l l n g plant, which is currently under construction. and that plant was intended to be used for exporting excess gas from russia to europe, to support or extreme wine. i'm tired of the war nor ship wine. the pipeline was operating at 100 percent capacity. so we have rights that have been monitoring and
10:11 pm
analyzing the satellite data. and we observed that russia has been wearing ever since july 11th of mid july, which coincide with the maintenance that occurred or began, or shame one. but interestingly, flaring actually continued despite the partial operations being resumed or she went back in late july. it really helped me understand this. i'm trying to figure out what would be it looking at this through the eyes of russia. what would be the sense that the point of burning off natural gas? i mean, are you saying ok, germany, you're part of the sanctions against us and this is the gas that you're not going to get. so we're going to burn it up in front of you. i mean, is that what is going on? i mean, i wouldn't roll out those possibilities on, but i do want to be clear that we have not received any communication from gas from guys, from really would we be able to shed light on the cause of the, you know,
10:12 pm
observed flaring that we're seeing in the provide plant you know, it is normal to see new facilities undergoing test wearing. but i will say that this is a much larger magnitude and it's been occurring for, much longer than usual for a new plan are still being constructed. and you, and you said also before the war began, this was not the case at north street. what was working for? we get 100 percent capacity. so what we're seeing now with these floyers, this is an anomaly, right? yes. and, you know, also worth mentioning kind of what you were alluding to, what we know is that russia has reduced exports to europe by some 7577 percent this year, compared to last year. and that, what that means is that russia has a strong surplus of gas in their system. so it is very possible that this flaring is suggesting, you know, lack of coordination between the upstream industry sectors. but there are other
10:13 pm
options or other possibilities. so western sanctions, those could potentially be preventing russia from obtaining proper equipment that they would be required to operate the facility. i'm so this could be a, you know, flaring could be a temporary solution to a technical problem. but really more details will be required. you know, to better understand on it and we know that it is not good for the environment to see more flare. but it just, it doesn't seem like it could be a good business decision for any company. would you agree with me on that? yes, from a business standpoint of firing does come at a cost for both economically and environmentally. and there's a loss associated with planning, obviously because you're burning off those valuable products that could otherwise be sold. so i would say flaring isn't, you know, it is only done if necessary. and that's why we've seen a white, but it doesn't minimize learning over the years. but i would say it's if russian is
10:14 pm
doing this, it's possibly due to, you know, geo politics. but it could also very much be technical issues and possibly even safety issues from that standpoint. emily, emily mcclain, with rights and energy. it really we appreciate your time in your analysis tonight . thank you. thank the united nations tonight is calling for a ceasefire. these emperor is ya, nuclear power plant that as inspectors head for the facility. the international atomic energy agency is planning to survey damage at the plant which was temporarily knocked off of the power grid this week, causing regional blackout. ukrainian officials have blamed russian occupying forces for the outage. russia blames ukrainian troops who are fighting to take back control of the power stations. now, experts warn one wrong move here could lead to a nuclear disaster. the risk of
10:15 pm
a nuclear is often europe has been doing large for weeks. ukraine says it was narrowly avoided yet with dizzy. if the diesel generators didn't turn on it after the black out, the automatic systems and the personnel didn't start working, we would have to face the consequences of a radiation accident. the lug nuts, litski, i get the name of audi. russia has put ukrainians as well as all europeans, one step away from radiation disaster that hostile there has been growing concern about fighting at the bar. blonde. on thursday fires visible your on satellite imagery knocked out its lost extended power line. the electricity, its applied was used for cooling and safety systems on the nuclear power plant. obama i think was ukraine has named russian forces for starting the fires rush us as they was bogged by ukrainian chilling g residence where
10:16 pm
the danger has not been avoided. yet the my all what i think every sane person is afraid. now every one is afraid. knowing our neighbor, knowing what it is capable of, that we understand that there can be different consequences of what is happening there. now that is why everyone is afraid. we are not worried about blackouts, see, but that the ecological situation may change. that to him. we'll jasminenewton. this is the start here with of course everyone is afraid. the entire world is afraid that if i really want the situation to become peaceful again, i want inspectors to finally reached the plant. i want the power shortages to be overcome and additional facilities to be operational. but it's of, i want all of us to live in a safe world in the future. inspectors from the new and nuclear watchdog planning to was at the bar station, which is held by russian forces. the waiting to be rounded access
10:17 pm
in angola tonight, it looks like the ruling party there will hold on to power in the nations closest free vote to date with nearly all balance counted official say the m p l a has 151 percent of the vote and a majority in parliament there you see the vote counting. that would also mean a 2nd term for president lorenzo. the main opposition increased it showing with 44 percent with not yet the final results were still waiting for the final results and the major opposition party already said they are contesting. the result may say that their own parallel counting and according to them, they are of the vote. you have to recall here that angular doesn't really have history of free and fair elections in the class. and also now of service has been criticizing some structural issues. for example, the electoral commission is still very much under the control of the government
10:18 pm
ends. lady cited as another example to only allow $1300.00 election of service for more than $13000.00 polling station. so that is obviously a big problem. and this is why many opposition parties are doubtful if these votes counting is really happening in the way it is supposed to happen. but once again, people are still waiting for the final results. things have been very common peaceful here so far. and we haven't seen any outbreaks of violence of it broke. and we know it passed elections of the ruling party really never had any competition at this time. that was not the case. and as you say, the, the opposition party, you know, right now is the number saying, 44 percent. what does that mean for competition in the political system moving forward by look, i mean it's almost certain that the mpa will win this elections again. but as you said, this type election for the 1st time, and that is the really shows that they have to really work on their performance. because the govern government,
10:19 pm
the party actually have been in power almost 50 years. it's a very long time to our end. so the current president took over about 5 years ago as a new president, and he promised reform he went after corrupt individuals in the government even went after the family off. ms. brady says president santos, that got him some credits. but also people here saying things are going to slow and especially in the urban areas in cities like he and one of the young people are really frustrated about the lack of economic development. yes. as the biggest all produce in africa about this wealth, an oil hasn't trickled down to the majority of the population. a lot of young people are unemployed. they are frustrated. and this is something that obviously needs to be addressed by the government. d. w. 's audrey increase reporting tonight from angola as those results come in. thank you. art, let's take a look down some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world for people have been killed in an air strike in the european city of mckellar. the
10:20 pm
army has dismissed claims by degree enforces that it carried out the attack a resurgence and violence has ended. they cease fire between the 2 sides that was in force since more french president emanuel micron has paid tribute to fallen soldiers in algeria. microns visit is aimed at healing colonial error wounds. and boosting trade relations of ties between the 2 countries are improving. after a diplomatic rel, last year, a state of emergency is in force in pakistan, is heavy months to range and to existing damage from the weather. visual, say, millions of residents have had to lead their homes. the rainfall started in june and has killed nearly a 1000 people. ah, professional football, the returned to ukraine this week with the 1st top white matchers since rushes
10:21 pm
invasion began. a full set of fixtures takes place this weekend. but there is both pride an trepidation from players and fans alike. at one game, air raid sirens forced players to run for cover ukrainians had been waiting for this moment with a football fans or otherwise the resumption of the men's ukrainian premier league. 6 months after the russian invasion began, was a sign that daily life could go on. a message from president vladimir lensky was broadcast to the players before kick off. the resumption is especially significant to those involved. it's very important and emotionally earn socially aspect earn you seen president zalinski told us some phrases, you know, and from all that term, the football of michael won that the, the showed the people that really that the
10:22 pm
o craner was to show it to the world that we are alive, and the don't forget us. spectators are not allowed at present because of the obvious dangers. even the players are taking a risk. if an air raid siren sounds, they have to run to the nearest shelter immediately, which he is and then pick stadium is in the underground copper. that's exactly what happened for 2 teams playing in the viv. their match lasted over 4 hours because they had to shelter 3 times. no strikes were detected in the area. scenes like that of many fans weighing the pros and cons of the situation. alas, for divine we hope our country is safe. that the air defenses will work. oh, but for now, i would not go to an event like that, that as yet not for the length. exactly. i would not play. i would postpone it
10:23 pm
islov. it's difficult is i hit on the one hand. it is very important that we show all the different sides of ukraine, and even in such difficult times for us must be on the other hand, it is danger ella's into a walk with that. and that respect most matches are taking place and give and in the west of the country, away from the main fighting top club shacked, our don ask, have been playing away from their home city for years. anyway, given the situation in easton ukraine, they moved their club shop to the capitol. now the rest of ukrainian football is trying to get used to a new normal or ukrainian security analysts. maria of diva was at that 1st match and she gave me her impressions of the game was and they still called all in the sky and the largest, where 70 thousands of people would normally come to watch the game. by this time it
10:24 pm
was completely empty. very strange feeling to see like that the only limited number or press presence was allowed those a stadium at the football players, of course. and the matcher went on without a alerts, but we were told and there was all the time and knowledge at done that in the air raid alert. and then the players should take commer and it happened several times throughout the next day. maria, we heard and correct me if i'm wrong that the players had to run to the bomb shelter 3 times during another game. i mean, how normal is all of this becoming for ukrainians? now? you know the se, galia discussed and it happened on the 23rd of august, which was the national leg day for your grant. and the next day was independence
10:25 pm
day. and these days, the air raid alert happened almost all the time. actually, the number on the 24th of august was the biggest thing, the beginning of the invasion. and it means that the of the game had to be stopped for this period. and the s 4 ukranian getting used to these new in our mileage to so to say that's what that's in human nature. it's already 6 months into the war. and people want to continually than, than normalize. and more or this football championship shows people in your grand that ukraine is frightened and resist. and that no matter what we will continue and that we can goal of threaten in ukraine and will not work out. we will not hide all the time in the cars because we will continue our life. but we've of course,
10:26 pm
with special restriction and special safety medicine. and i know we, we've talked about this before, the ukrainians are showing an incredibly strong will to maintain some semblance of normalcy in the country despite this war. but, but you as a security expert, how, how wise do you say or do you think it is to a well, these football matches to take place? considering the real dangers that are present. you know what the president of the football federation of ukraine said that the more important goal for now is to keep on going and show everyone that would both is alive. and he also mentioned that a lot of the football fans are now in the trenches and they are fighting for you. great. and for them, it's important to know that that put both teams are continuing to play because for
10:27 pm
them this is a symbol, a very important thing that shows that they, their fight is not invade, they fight for, for, for ukraine to continue leaving. and that's what ukrainians do, and this is a very symbolic for months because they show their sense and strength. maria aviva, it's been quite an eventful weekend. glad you've been able to join us. thank you. this is d w. news. after a short break, i'll be back to take you through the day stick around. we will be right back. ah ah, with
