that she's been my queen all of my life and, and it was a way of people coming together to celebrate her life. i thought that this is my last chance i came here and i'm actually different person going back. the committal ceremony in the castle's chapel, where family friends and royal officials bade their queen farewell ceremony, lived according to ancient tradition. merciful unto them, the chilion prayers were said, for he knows where all we all married. he remembered for. and the queen's piper played a final lament today, ah christ kind of then

a day of ceremonies both in london and windsor were you are what stood out for you . a very nice i was. it's been a really, really significant day, hasn't it? there's been so much going on so much for the i a near to see and here i think one of the things that was extremely powerful has been the music which we know the queen herself had a strong hand in deciding both at westminster abbey. and at the commit to the ceremony here in windsor rousing angelic choral singing in westminster abbey. and also the bagpipes, the atmospheric bagpipe benz piping as the, as the coffin moved through its procession as part of the day. another thing is that i mean the king, his face, especially here at the commit to ceremony. here in windsor, the sadness plastered across his face that is in his eyes. he hasn't just lost the queen like the rest of the british public. he's also lost his mother in law. this is a particularly public event. it is

a private pain for the direct family. and another thing that was really significant and probably very relatable firstly to the public but also to her life. now the queen's dogs, her corgis, 2 of them were present also that her favorite pony, emma. she was known to love horses and to love dogs in attendance here in windsor. is she a she arrived here? and as i say that something that the queen lived a life that many of us will never really be able to comprehend. but her love of animals is something that has always connected her to the general public in the british public, specifically and animal lover. but it's so much more how will queen elizabeth be remembered in the british public and also a bribe? you well, she has had a 70 year range. she has seen everything happen since 1952, a huge digital trains, a number of different political change. she sees so many prime ministers,

a lot of people are sort of considering exactly what this all means. neither shift and obviously neither reign of king charles takes, hey, this is been, as you say, a really private moments of them. specifically. here they've done the term ceremony just with the family that the day sort of smaller and smaller, the dignitaries of, of the world leaders dropped off as they came to windsor. this now became a very private ceremony. and everybody really looks at what the reign of king charles is going to look like. will he a sort of follow in his mother's footsteps, the sort of quiet presence that she did, she exerted on this country on, on the realms that she, she went over. we did see a huge outpouring of support. you think this bodes well for the future of the monarchy. there's been a lot of discussion about where it's headed now. under charles i think ro, family will expect it to be extremely positive as a, as

a factor here, that the thousands of people tens of thousands of people. we don't know the exact numbers. yes. but people that attended the queen's body lying in states in westminster, hall the hundreds of thousands of people that have turned out on the streets to the events today. and millions of people around the world that watch at the royal family know that well they have a very specific constitutional function here in the united kingdom as the head of state in the parliamentary democracy. they also know how important it is, the symbolism and the power, the soft power, that the existence here as, as the, as a rule from the, of the united kingdom exists and the view that they're seeing with all around the world. and they, i think they'll hope that this event will continue. a big significant aspects will be how does the, how does controls choose to go about his coronation? i will he have such a grand event with pomp and ceremony? i think probably we can expect it to be, but it will sort of be a litmus test for the rest of his re, eric in windsor. thank you so much. one. queen elizabeth has

triggered an outpouring of sentiment in hong kong, one of the last former british colonies, which was handed over to china just 25 years ago. the collective grief is not just about morning the late queen, though it's also about remembering what many view as the golden era of hong kong and even that nostalgia is becoming taboo. under chinese rule as dw correspondence, phoebe cong reports since the queen's passing a shop selling british colonial hong kong items such as coins, stems and metals is welcoming 10 times more customers than usual is founded by brian own, the royalty collector didn't expect people coming for tearful commemoration, or they're always equal level over on the all they feel like they're losing an old friend or even a family member. so the magole wong, the, she's more than a queen way to go away. it's also because life in hong kong wasn't that good in the

past 2 decades ago. but with, with retrogression in many ways, could it, oh, why the people missed the past? not because they like or want colonialism, but purely because it was the good old days day go goal. i think that's being reflected through morning. the queen house angelica got such sentiments a more visible at the british consulate, surrounded by a sea of flowers, people, or q a for up to 4 hours in the heat to signed a book of condolences. the colonial era is due in many people's memories in hong kong, which was ruined by britain, 456 years before his hand over to china in 1997. on lower it, i got the most precious thing. britain left us is a social system with lots of freedoms to pursue our goals. and oh yeah, you got all electrical wire. aha. how good education was picked up. we were happier, less stress and restricted high salma somewhat so alex told me, mom died at highgate holland. crittenden give us much in the way of democracy

overrule it did more good than harm. get go. go over. the hong kong people gave a queen a cantonese nickname for both ladies showing a special affection the outpouring of morning is not only a matter of nostalgia, but mixed with grievances and is content over the chinese rule and even a gesture of the find occurrence repression. the queen visit a tongue called twice during the seventies and eighties was social reforms were rolled out after n t colonia riah to transformed a small city into a road financial hub to day public facilities named after queen elizabeth a marcus of britain's legacy to modern hong kong, hong kong was one of few british colonies not allowed to determine its own feature . born in 1980 and educated in colonial government schools, bryant all said he was never taught to be a british patriots. last year he opened a private museum. the certificate signed by the queen and prince philip. it's

abandon, most precious in his 10000 item collection. auto we are hired will never considered myself british if, when i'm 100 percent. a hong kong who loves british culture local all histories a meaningful import whenever they happened. no matter good or bad. oh, so we shouldn't arrays, any part of it, just because we don't like it or you're welcome. all of us should respect our past with all exceed, or you hope you enjoy to your goal is not only to preserve felix, but also that entity of his hometown to ukraine. now where the government says a russian missile damaged equipment close to the 2nd largest nuclear plant in the country cave, branded the move as nuclear terrorism. moscow has warned of more attacks on ukrainian infrastructure after it's forces were pushed back in northeastern ukraine,

leading to the discovery of a mass grave in a forest and the region. a kremlin denies russia is responsible for killing the civilians and soldiers whose remains were found in mass graves outside its. you, moscow halls the allegations quote, life and joining me now from harkey as dw correspondent nick connelly. nick, what more can you tell us about the investigation into the mass graves near is you was still there, the investigation? this is ongoing. i think gonna take some time before we have any more in the way of kind of, overarching figures. am my colleague of mine else as was there just few days ago when she was there, the body of an 8 year old man was being zoomed with the obvious signs of torture. lots of other stories of this kind, kind of poppy of the last few days as well as the people who died. presumably when she was taken by russian for so died during fighting and shelling rather than being targeted. but there are stories of this kind kind of coming out from all across

this region. people who are in prison for weeks on end. people have disappeared and hadn't been found. people who tried to get safety and whenever heard from again. and the major problem right now is the fear of mine. so there are lots of place where people expect to find the main to people who've been missing since those russian force came here. but it's just too dangerous to go there. i've another investigator can't go there. i think the kind of most kind of depressing thing about all this is when you kind of talk to people about the response to this. it's kind of basically something they expect to looking after those scenes from butch moore pin from the key of regional in the year. people here were kind of basically prepared for this kind of treatment, this kind of behavior by the russian army and certainly nothing. we've seen so far suggest that they changed much in the months that followed here in this part of the country. so the expectation of a lot more gruesome finds here in this part of ukraine. a harrowing picture that is the emerging nic, ukraine's as russian forces are attacking another, a nuclear plant in the south of the country. and what do we know about that?

so we have seen some cctv footage of a missile strike about 300 meters. we have been told from the actual plant and this is not the 1st time of c, there's the other power plant is up. patricia where we've seen lots of showing happening near by maybe will. so remember a couple of months ago, a russian missile flying past very close to that same power station. and i think this is primarily aimed at the international audience at people in europe who support ukraine. this is a threat from the russian government that if you know this support for ukraine continues, then the risks of this kind of catastrophic accident are gonna just rise and russia similarly willing to up the ante. and it's also by infrastructure. it's about ukraine and civilians potentially being left without electricity, without other basic kind of utilities going into this cold winter ahead. the ukranian counter offensive has been gaining traction in recent weeks. i want you to listen to when ben hodges, the former commanding general of the u. s. army and europe told her team in

washington and then we'll get right back to you. i believe the ukrainians have achieved her ear reversible momentum. it's too early to plan a victory parade, but they clearly have irreversible momentum in m. r. view of defeat of russia, ukrainian victory, which means total restoration of all of its sovereign territory, including crimea, is inevitable. a lot of optimism there. nick, is that a realistic assessment to someone who is on the ground? but it's definitely a music to ukraine, is something that the ukraine government would sign up to em. i think it also shows quite how far we've come. if you remember back to the early weeks of this war, most people outside ukraine thought ukraine surviving as an independent country in whatever borders would be an achievement in itself. so the fact that we're now talking about pushing russian troops not only back to where they were on the 25th of every, but potentially pushing them out, crimea that's been in russian hands since 2014 is pretty extraordinary and

testament to the shipment of ukraine's army i think for now, definitely the government here wants to push back, at least to those board as to where the russian trips were at the beginning this war. and they don't want to give them some kind of chance to regroup. and to kind of freeze this conflict where it is right now, they think that russia would just, you know, collect more soldiers, collect more resources and go at it again. i think the understanding here is that russia still wants to destroy ukraine as an independent country as taking back crimea. that is of c still ok, stated ukrainian gold, but i can't really see it happening without tectonic change in russia. some kind of destabilization the government there because you know, if you guys were able to retake crimea, that really puts blame putin's entire legacy in question and would cause pretty huge shifts and kind of conflicts within russia. but definitely, this is a sign that ukraine now feels like it's on a role. and you know, people well wishes and supporters and onlookers, fraud are seemingly impressed by what they've seen in terms of performance by ukraine's army. and a sense that this, you can't fence,

we've seen in hot give in the last few weeks, isn't gonna be the last, did only a corresponding economy with the latest from harkins. many thanks a sound. take a look at some other stories making headlines around the world today. rush us most celebrated pop diva. i love to watch. shabba has asked to be declared a foreign agent in solidarity with her husband. maxime, god, kin who was designated as one less than a week ago. and instagram post. she said hooton's war in ukraine was killing soldiers or illusory aims and turning russia into a global pariah. protesters and bay rude have broken down again into the justice ministry, demanding the release of 2 people arrested last week for storming a bank. a came as a delegation from the international monetary fund held meetings with officials over the countries economic meltdown. banks are closed. 3 days emit security concerns about the full $7.00 magnitude earthquake has hit mexico central pacific coast,

triggering su nami warnings. there are no immediate reports of damage. alarms in mexico city sounded less than an hour after ceremonies, marking deadly quakes that struck on the same date. in 19852017. hurricane fiona has slammed the dominican republic after pounding for it, a rico fiona broad, heavy rainfall and sustained winds. of more than a 140 kilometers per hour. okay. media reported flooding and washed out roads and the east. earlier, the storm knocked down power and cause extensive damage in puerto rico. us presidential biden has said that washington would defend taiwan if china staged a quote, unprecedented attack against taiwan. he reiterated his stance in an interview with cbs. but when asked to comment the white house and says that the u. s. had not changed and one china policy and does not support taiwan independence. china has

responded by saying biden's remarks severely violate washington's policy. taiwan is a self rhode island that beijing claims as part of its territory. and i am now pleased to welcome doctor erin freeburg. he is a professor of politics and international affairs at princeton university. he's also the author of the new book getting china wrong. dr. freeburg, welcome. this is not the 1st time president vine has gone further than the official us dance on taiwan. but this is as clear as comment on it yet, is the u. s. strategic ambiguity becoming more strategic and less ambiguous? i don't think that herb president biden's comment was a derossi's. now said this, i think 4 times in the last several months. but it also doesn't represented changing policy. the united states that supports the maintenance of the status quo us doesn't support,

i want independence. but it also opposes any use of force to try to resolve the issue between the name of been china. so really what the president is doing is, is stating a fact. if china uses force against i won, united states would respond. it's not a fundamental change in policy. it's a really ration of, or a reality. it what a u. s. military involvement in taiwan look like in part we see already efforts by the united states. and this has been ongoing for, for years, but intensified to help taiwan strengthen its own capacity for self defense. that 1st and foremost, but also the united states is doing things along with its regional allies to try to increase its ability if necessary, to intervene on behalf of time want to help it resist an invasion. that's the worst case scenario, but the u. s. c h to prepare for in order to deter, to discourage beijing from ever contemplating the use of force. yeah,

unsurprisingly, beijing as quite furious and president, she is under a lot of pressure at home these days for a number of reasons. do you expect to see more than just muscles like thing coming out of china? no, i think the muscle flexing, flexing in the harsh words, are part of a larger strategy. we're taiwan is trying progressively to tighten its grip on, on taiwan, increasing military pressure, increasing attempts to diplomatic isolation, and to blame whatever it does on the west, on the united states. so massive military exercises last month. wayne done the visit by how speaker pelosi but those were exercises. i suspected chinese would have undertaken. in any case, in your book, you argued that the west long underestimated china are the times turning. i think there's much more realism now in the united states, in europe and asia, about the challenge, the china poses to liberal democracy and peace and stability in the region. and

that's a big change and it's happening quickly, but it's not uniform. some people, some places are a little bit of added, some are behind and it's not sufficient. i think we are not yet to the point where we formulated agreed policies that we can implement to try to respond to the aggressive things in china's been doing. why would the us consider intervening in taiwan in a way that it's not doing in ukraine, which has been attacked by russia from the outside? where is the difference here? why wind is taiwan wayne differently and ukraine in the u. s. books? i think there are a couple of reasons. one is that the u. s. has since 97900 so called time on relations act expressed its intention to support time want to help tie one, maintain its its position and to resist aggression from the mainland. and also

committed the united states, at least to be prepared to intervene on its behalf. so we don't have an alliance with pie one, but we have a commitment that's of long standing of a sort that we didn't have with ukraine. i guess i would say the 2nd thing is as important as ukraine is strategically. taiwan is even more so and a successful chinese attack on time. one that invaded and conquered the island would have disastrous implications for the united states and its allies in asia. that would probably exceed the impact if russia had unfortunately succeeded in your grant. so the stakes are high and we have a previously existing commitment doctor in favor professor and politics and international affairs at princeton university. excellent. speaking to you today. thank you very much. written as bid farewell to queen elizabeth with a historic state funeral. her coffin was carried in a procession across london and driven to windsor castle for
