ah, he won't pay taxation in politics starts october 21st on d w with . ah, ah, this is d w. news live from berlin, you leaders call on russia to stop making threats to use nuclear weapons. the demand was issued following a summit and prague, but formalized fresh round of sanctions against russia for it's more of aggression in ukraine. also on the show,

the nobel peace prize goes to 3 champions of human rights, the jail bell, russian activist, alice gal. yep. ski is on it alongside russia's memorial organization and ukraine's the center for civil liberties. ah, i'm and your group is mckinnon. welcome to the program. you leaders have reaffirmed their continuing support of ukraine in its defense against russian aggression leaders. wrapped up an informal summit in prague that they said had also moved the block closer to finding common steps to averting an energy crisis this winter. his e commission, president or slough on the line. i'm very encouraged that we managed yesterday to close the latest rounds of hard biting sanctions against russia and record time . once again,

we've moved fast and we have moved with force. we've made progress on the oil price cut with our enhanced export band. we continue to undermine put his ability to wage war in ukraine and with our wide and import van, we deprive him further of important revenues. t w's alexander phenomena is in prague. and she told me more about the unity between the european countries which help them adopt measures against moscow. well, i would say to, to, you has managed to stay united with its support for ukraine. and of course, with the sanctions that they are keeping in introducing up on the line, spoke about the new round of sanctions that the leaders approved here at this is the package number 8 aimed at closing existing loopholes and increasing the pressure on the regime in moscow. however,

we also have to say that it's clear that it's, it's becoming increasingly difficult to go further and there are a few members states who think that what's been done is enough for instance, hungry and the prime minister there. he has a claim for instance, that it is a small european elite that is responsible for the sanctions that he would like to have a referendum on the sanctions. however, we of course have to say that the victor alba was always at the table when those decisions were made for unit to yes, but we also see some divisions that, of course, the kremlin is attempting to exploit a followup following the talks we a sore press conference where the main topics were summarized. can you give us, give us a sense of what the most important points that were made?

well, i think that the most important point was here indeed that you leaders made clear that they were determined to continue supporting ukraine. woods, military and financial financial assistance as long as its takes, as they listened to the ukrainian president zalinski, add to his concerns. and of course, at the top of the agenda here was the energy crisis. and here we have to say that it seems to be difficult to find a solution as her friendship president marlowe mccomb. put it. there is no magic wand to tackle the energy crisis that's putting it mildly now. germany, of course, has been drawing a loss of criticism for announcing its own energy aid package. and that's actually something that chancellor shaw it's addressed in his press conference a little earlier. so we're going to take a quick listen to what he, what, what he had to say. this is a muffler,

it's clear that every market intervention and every price cup automatically raises questions about the security of energy supplies of vehicles. that's why we have to discuss these things in great detail. we've agreed that the energy ministers will examine the advantages and disadvantages of the proposals for left. i will discuss this or the next european council meeting in brussels. i couldn't log on bite, some more examining, more discussing what did you make of what the chancellor had to say? i alexander. so it was very diplomatic. you're not saying straight away that germany is still opposing a price cap on gas, but that was actually what his message was. so german is open for discussion discussions, but still warning against any intervention in the markets. instead, the german chancellor seems to be convinced that the better way to solve the crisis is to speak with other nations who are also reliable,

who are also rely on on gas or others energy sources of course. and it will make more sense in the, from his perspective, to speak to those nations, to find a common solution and not to have a cap that could alienate reliable suppliers like norway, for instance, alexander, thank you. that's alexander fun. nomine reporting from prague. now this he has no bel peace prize is being shared by 3 champions of human rights. the jailed bell russian rights act. this to alice, bailey, etzky russians, a memorial organization and ukraine's center for civil liberties. the joint award highlights the significance of civil society for peace and democracy. the most highly anticipated announcement in a week of woods. at the stroke of 11 in oslo, the chair of norway's nobel committee ended the speculation. this yes,

our team went to the key region and the 1st stage when it was liberated by here, we have more than 20000 crimes registered as of now israel is wishing the committee also recognized alice bailey etzky. a long time leader of the democracy movement in belarus, he was detained following anti government protests in 2020, and remains in jail without trial. russia's memorial group has also had to battle state repression. for decades it's been tracking human rights abuses and the fight of political prisoners. but it was ordered to dissolve last year, as part of the kremlin ever taught an incorrect down on descent. that a premium. there you go, quoted. this prize gives us fresh moral strength. no doubt, but moral approval for all of us. not long. and for many of our colleagues, lea, a not only within memorial, my dear, are you there at the body. we consider this prize them to be attribute to the russian human rights community as a whole. when we're sold,

the nobel committee says this year's prize was not intended to be a direct message to the russian president with a most though it's another stinging rebuke for the repressive regime of vladimir putin. which also happens to fall on his 70th birthday. that's get you up to speed now and some of the other stories making news around the world. u. s. president joe biden has pardon thousands of people convicted under federal law of possessing marijuana. he did not call for full d criminalization of cannabis, but said no one should be in jail just for using the drug. people convicted under state laws are not affected by this executive action, which comes about a month ahead of mid term elections when biden's, democrats may lose control of congress. shoreline has top court has allowed a rights group to initiate legal action against the country's former leader. transparency international is seeking proceedings against deposed president, got a by a roger pac sir over the countries worst financial crisis and decades. it spots unrest

in the country as well. as reggie packs is flight, good, the world health organization has issued an alert against using several cough and cold drugs claimed for faithful kidney damage. at least $66.00 children and gambia said have died after ingesting one of the full indian made medicines, gambit authorities of band the treatments. and i'm now going door to door to collect them. now the sort of chess has been in the spotlight in recent weeks, but not for the reasons that it would want accusations of cheese saying, have been swirling around us grandmaster, hans niemen with neat niemen denying that he's getting electronic signals to tell him what moves to make when you're at the center of a chest cheating scandal, the security checks are going to be fairer. but as the u. s. championships got underway this week, hans niemen remains tight lit. i think this game spoke for itself and showed the

checks for them and it also showed that i'm not going to back down and i'm going to play my best dress here regardless of the pressure that i'm under. the accusations come from the very top of the sport, magnet carlson, the world's best player. first. he didn't even select cheating early last month that followed a shock defeat to niemen that ended his $53.00 game and beat him streak. and there, there we have a handshake, then neiman admitted to cheating and to mine a games online when he was younger. but he said he play in the news to prove he doesn't wear an electronic device. yeah. they can literally tommy, those ridiculous thing. they want me to ship fully naked. i'll do it. i don't care because i know i know that i'm clean and i'm willing to say to subject myself, you want, you want me to play. and in a, in a closed box with 0 electronic transmission. i don't care, you know enough in the scandal crank chapel level 2 weeks later, during an online game between the pair. what no coffin,

quitting the game off to just one move magnet johnson just resign. got up and left, switched off his camera. and that's all we know right now. afterwards he accused name and directly for the 1st time writing on social media. i believe that nieman has cheated more and more recently than he has publicly admitted this week. the website chest dot com said it found niemen, had probably cheated in more than 100 online games, but never in person. but while the man's meteoric rise up, the rankings has raised eyebrows. others in this sport have defended him. they say there's been nothing out of the ordinary and nothing to suggest cheating. looks like i spoke to kenneth reagan earlier, he's a chest cheating expert. he's been looking into the niemen case, and i asked him, how does someone cheat a chess? there are various ways that have been done in over the board chests, including i think it in camera and your piece, a computer issue,

getting signals to a phone in a pocket. the most common way, however though, is doesn't require an accomplice, is just going to some secluded locations such as the bathroom store to check the game on one cell phone. because of the sad reality that these things can play far stronger than carlson or any other human beings. so there's plenty of variety of options now. you know something of a chest detective. how easy is it to detect cheating and to prove it as well. it's very difficult that the wicked problem that goes to societal contingencies, that various factors that can influence the final interpretation of the probability numbers that i get. what about name? and i mean, we just heard in that report he offered to play in the news just to prove that he's innocent. is he clean? right? so let me clarify something right away. my stand is that he is not cheated,

and i have no evidence of his cheating all over the board chest nor an online chest since august 2020, which is the end date of the allegations of the chest dot com report and the chest that com report and it's preamble does support these findings as far as saying it has no concrete evidence either. so it's i so in defending him, in the timeframe of more recently in the way that most people have interpreted back this carlos and words ok, understood. let's talk about answering m t cheating technology. can it keep up all cheaters really getting away with things on so on site arbiters has been very effective. they caught some one with the mobile phone and it turned in but very recently, it's not clear whether the person had gotten to the stage of being able to effectively cheat with that. the sink field cup used ones as on the u. s. championships.

currently going on at the same location like charlie devices, there are some limits on measures. one can take in europe, especially chest, turn a bit, then use our public places and you can not do our f jamming there. kenneth reagan at the university at buffalo, it's been a pleasure speaking with you. thank you. thank you very much. and with that you up to date coming up next. don't film looks at americas black up a cloth. i'm and you can mckinnon in berlin on behalf of the whole team here at the w. nice. thanks. the been with m. how did she become at all fentler's favorite director and how did he become a forgotten pioneer? leniently finished and annoyed.
