ah ah ah, this is the w news coming to live from berlin. joe biden center stage at the un climate summit in egypt. the u. s. president warrens global warming threatens the life of the planet, but he says america will meet its emissions targets by 2030. also coming up, cranium forces close in on the center of his song. bosco withdraws its troops,
5:01 pm
but says the city will remain part of russia. ah, hello and terry martin, good debbie with it's good climate policy is good economic policy. that's the message joe biden brought to the cop 27 climate summit in egypt. biden warned that global warming is threatening the planet. the american president paul judge for the u. s. withdrawal from the previous parish climate accord, but he says washington is urgently addressing the climate question. thank you. thank you. bye and gave delegates this assurance to day finally, thanks to the actions we've taken. i can stand here as president united states of america and say with confidence united states of america will meet our mission is
5:02 pm
target by 2030 we're looking forward to do our port 2 words, the climate hill that the un secretary general so passionately warned about earlier this week we're not ignoring harbingers that are already here. is true so many disasters. climate crisis sitting hardest, those countries and communities that have the fewest resources to respond and to recover. showing me in the studio is d w. climate reported urgent neuron john object to you and our listening that speech together by us presenter button to the climate conference you heard biden say that he would, he would, that america is on track to meet its climate reduction. it's greenhouse reduction commitments, greenhouse gas reduction commitments. do you see that actually happening?
5:03 pm
the analysis was seen so far say that's not on the card. so an analysis i buy it and has said with absolute confidence to quit him that the u. s. will meet these targets by 20 bet, and that would mean cutting a mission that the greenhouse gases with heat the planet by about 50 percent from 2005 levels into fate. yes. the provisions actually contain with within the inflation reduction, accurate. the big landmark piece of legislation that was passed out this year in the u. s. according to princeton research, as that gets down to about 42 percent climate action tracker and independent from our research group in europe put out a bit lower than that. i mean, the still more that needs to be done while it is also clear that this represents a huge step forward in the u. s. a. policy to kind of and pollution some job. i'd also acknowledge the need to support developing countries in adapting to climate change and helping to reduce their own emissions. ah, there's been a series demand for climate compensation at this climate conference in egypt. do
5:04 pm
you see the u. s. taking a lead on that? the u. s has avoided making commitment for some of its european allies. allies have started making of the last few days. so one of the key demand this for kind of the rich countries who done the most to heat the planet by banning fossil fuels and for them to pay for the damages. so as he said, the compensation, but thing that already gone wrong. so we're not talking, sorry, we're not talking here about building clean energy system. that's one thing. we're not talking about adapting to extreme weather events. another thing, instead the saying if an extreme weather event like a flood or hurricane been made strong by climate change kind of takes away my house, he's going to pay for that loss and damage. exactly. and these loss of the lawson damage argument have been kind of one of the big tension points that this climate summit and a few countries. we've seen countries like denmark, a belgian put forward amounts of money still small amounts of money. not nearly on
5:05 pm
the scale that would be needed to actually properly compensate for countries, but we've seen some start to put forward money. there is some momentum growing here . this is the 1st year where it's even been on the agenda. vitamin of speech avoided rid even mentioning the one time he said the word loss of damage. we're in relation to a program called the global shield that b u. s. at supporting enough germany lead initiative to kind of act as an insurance pot to help poor countries when so before extreme, whether been strike that the money to be invested to use of insurance. there's also been a, a big focus in, in by the speech that we heard about, the transition to clean energy. do you see the us doing enough on that? it's not quite doing enough, but it have undergone a massive kind of shift in direction. so this inflation reduction act that was passed out this year. we'll let the country massively build out clean energy source
5:06 pm
as a wind turbine solar panels investing kind of the more of the technology that kind of haven't come on to the market, cheap scale yet. and those things are being pushed forward and have the benefit of bringing costs down for everyone. for the more of the build, the cheaper the more efficient companies get, making them implementing them. and that can be spread across the world. one of the problems that he did address in his speech just earlier though, was that it's still too expensive for poor countries to be doing this. and so he said, if countries can finance coal in developing countries, then we can finance clean energy to and overcoming that hurdle will be kind of crucial for countries where they can't even afford the interest on the loan repayment to build a big wind turbine oh, solar farm and instead of choosing to take subsidized fossil fuels instead of you. thank you very much for your insights. our, our environment desk correspond as intervention.
5:07 pm
well, as world leaders meet egypt, record on human rights is under scrutiny. the case of the pro democracy campaigner of delta is a particular concern. he was jailed for allegedly spreading fake news. protesters are campaigning for his release, but authorities are making it difficult for activists to hold demonstrations. this is what egypt once the world to see a country playing perfect host, to global leaders at the un climate summit, but on the ground activists say that they are not welcome here. i mean, it's completely different. the last climate conference was in glasgow every day. the word street protests are near the conference center this year you have to apply for permission to protest for 36 hours in advance. you. it's only open from 10 till
5:08 pm
5, and it's under heavy surveillance. some st. they are also being closely monitored. many activities order information was taken. so we were like, how are we good to start something when these people are already joining us, goes now, do you know? oh, we arrested. the spotlight has also been shown on human rights abuses, particularly egypt, where there are many political prisoners among them as the egyptian british pro democracy activists, ala abdel fattah scene here in 2013. he's been on hunger strike since april. hope that one day we can repay sister has been at the summit fighting for his freedom. our support is a long despite an attempt by
5:09 pm
some, including an egyptian law maker to stop her in with, without situations of egypt had hoped, climate would be the main focus at cock $27.00 o 3. instead its own human rights. raccoon is overshadowing this summit. earlier i spoke with adam kugal in jordan's capital, among his deputy director for the middle east in north africa, human rights watch. i asked him whether he trusts the assessment by the egyptian government that other abdel father is in good health. look, i don't think that we can trust anything, but the egyptian government says about a alarm booth at the top right now. the statement you're referencing by the public prosecution yesterday mentioned that there was a family visit on november 7th. and we know for a fact that, that is, it never happened allows mother went to the prison. she attempted to see him,
5:10 pm
but she was not able to come. so, you know, we, we, we know from the outset that the statement is riddled with falsehoods. so i think it's very difficult for his family and for human rights campaigners to just take, the governments were to face value on this. we're still very concerned about his situation. u. s. president joe biden is scheduled to meet her. the egyptian, his egyptian counterpart of dull potter. i'll cc at the climate summit to day up. is he expected to re raised the human rights issue with l. c. c. and if so, do you think that's going to have an impact? well, look, we certainly hope so. i think that the, by the ministration, it should be noted that they are the 1st us administration to actually withhold aid to egypt military to egypt in response to egypt. human rights of uses, right. other previous administrations issued
5:11 pm
a national security waiver to give the money anyway, so it should be recognized the biden, you know, they have done something, but they should do more of this is the 2nd meeting between biden cc this year. there will actually be a 3rd meeting at the african leaders summit are coming up in what we're hoping to see is real tangible results. we think that the president should obviously, the, the b, u. s. president, should obviously raise a laws case and other important details cases with president c, c. i. but you know, it's also important that they have a plan to show that there's going to be progress on this. and in addition, i think one of the major points that they should stress is no retaliation against activists and others who participated in cop or who raised human rights concerns during comp. because i think that the egyptian government is probably pretty upset about how this week has gone. and we are definitely concerned that they could retaliate by targeting activists afterwards. now there are many dissidence behind
5:12 pm
bars in egypt give us a sense of the bigger picture with respect, with respect to human rights in egypt, both in terms of how the respected or abused. yes. so the egypt has been essentially any human rights crisis for the past 6 or 7 years. ever since, you know, the military took control in 2013 and i, you know, undertook the, the rub. hm. massacre. in august of that year, the human rights situation, egypt has deteriorated, considerably thousands upon thousands upon thousands of people have been arrested for exercising their basic rights to free expression or free assembly or free association. and torture is ramping and it's it in egyptian prisons and detention centers. all of these abuses have taken place with absolutely 00 accountability. there's been total impunity for the perpetrators in egypt. unfortunately, you know,
5:13 pm
has gone from a country that had a growing, a somewhat vibrant civil society going back to 2011 to one that is very repressed today. and it's a country where egyptians cannot speak out. they cannot conduct any sort of sensitive advocacy with their government because it's likely to land them in jail out him. thank you very much for talking with us. that was adam kugal there of human rights watch. ukraine says it's in the final stages of reclaiming territory. left by retreating, russian troops in the southern region of house. hong moscow says it's finished withdrawing its forces from the western bank of the nepa river. there. the defense ministry claims had ordered the retreat to save the lives of soldiers. it was no longer able to supply the kremlin, maintains that house on will remain part of russia. little spoke of moving closer to the city of her son. the ukrainian flag is flying again in dozens of
5:14 pm
small towns around the regional capital. over instantly, her rifka about 50 kilometers north of her son. people gather to thanks soldiers as they enter the city. but not every one here shares their sense of euphoria. whose and it's still very, very scary when you drive through the region, you see how many villages have been bombed with her so much destruction of our school is destroyed and not a single window as lie. all the buildings are shattered. we all know that it would for the 1st time since moscow launched its invasion in february, guns have fallen silent in this village close to the front line. this man who has been living on humanitarian aid for months has only just heard of the liberation of neighboring nor rifka renewal only with below referral signal. there is no food, all or nothing that i was in was free. people who were there right now told me they
5:15 pm
have no food. oh nothing. what we'll do is we have to bring them food garages. wally been seen. those who have survived the shelling are wondering how they will make it through the winter. with oh, we've had no water supply since the end of february. they are bringing us drinking water to a school. we can bring water from a nearby well with our tractor, but it's not really drinkable here, the 2 sides keep volleying rocket at each other. so no hurry, yesterday i was removing leaves and right behind this building it was terrible. the battle went on with machine guns for weeks. ukrainian forces have been advancing on her son. its loss would leave russia with few territorial gains since the beginning of the war. so what's happening in a house on right now,
5:16 pm
short while ago, i got this update from our correspondent conley in 5th. well, ukrainian social media is awash with images of ukrainian flags all around to get a song on the government building. some of these are obviously been put out by locals who've been keeping them through all those months of occupation. we understand that ukrainian army units are now in lots of parts of some city proper. whereas previously they were only kind of on the outskirts and in the kind of wider part of the region. this is all kind of extraordinary. we were even yesterday talking about this taking a week then this morning. it seemed like it was matter of several days. now we've just seen those russian positions collapse and the russians claiming to fully pulled out, but seemingly still thousands of russian troops left behind on that west bank of the nipper river. the russians main forces basically blowing up the bridges behind them and leaving those people behind to be taken prisoner. there was a scene, reports of lost source and soldiers just spinning their uniforms and changing in
5:17 pm
civilian clothes and hope they can somehow get through to the russian position somewhere else and kind of go unnoticed. so definitely this is a very dynamic and very unexpectedly fast end to the situation. but a lot of enthusiasm here in key of that, this is now happening after 70 months waiting is by the fact. they're still the expectation. they're gonna be lots of mines, lots of booby traps, not to potential danger ahead. as you say, lots of a potential potential danger there. what are the ukrainian troops pacing, as they advance into areas previously occupied by russian forces now? was it was the expectation that russia would leave some special forces behind perhaps, as mentioned, dressed in civilian clothes to engage the ukrainian forces in some kind of hand to hand urban combat. so far we haven't heard about anything that kind of see the normal caveats are in place. there are no independent, jealous on the ground. it is all based on social media talking to people who are still there and what the ukraine army tells us, but does seem like russian morale is very low, that those people who is still there have basically been abandoned to their own
5:18 pm
devices and are in no mood to fight, but the bigger danger is just those russian troops on the opposite. the need for reverse the whole of sun city is very much in range of heavy artillery from the russian side. and we are speaking people there in recent days, who say it, if russia wants to, they can turn on into another marable. so yes, ukrainian control is coming back to, to get on to the city in full. but there is still that very potent threat from russian all to the read just across the water. so russian ortelia across the water, one threat, the russian troops may withdrawn from the region a d, but there's also russian air strikes to contend with just this morning. we saw pie people killed in the city of nikolai, and that's not very far from house on. what does it tell us about ukraine's continued vulnerability nic? whoops, russia still has a huge stack of missiles will be fewer than the beginning of this war, and they're definitely having trouble replenishing those stocks producing more. but
5:19 pm
they can definitely hit cities like michel, i haven't even cities much further away from the front lines. and we've seen tom tom again when russia loses on the battlefield. when it's conventional forces, unable to kind of push ukraine back than they choose to attack civilian infrastructure, power plants more to plants, hundreds comes away from the front lines in the hope that that will push ukrainians to go and demand. a government comes to some kind of agreement with the russians. for now we're not seeing that happen. we seen kind of the opposite and, you know, the successful ships on will kind of support that ordinary ukrainians got demanding . the government doesn't cut any kind of deal with the russians, basically restore full control over ukrainian territory, including crimea, and the bits of don't boss that russia controlled since 2014. but there's definitely a sense that this is the only kind of tactic that russia kind of ease kind of has on its radar. they don't really know what else to do. the threats of nuclear war are just not working. we've seen kind of western governments pretty much unimpressed by those threats that rhetoric coming from moscow. so for now that's
5:20 pm
going to be any tactic the moscow seemingly has left and order people in place like key of and, and even leave for the front lines. are expecting this to be a very uncomfortable when to before things get better. nick, thank you very much for now. there are correspondent nick conley there in the ukrainian capital. keith in other news, lawmakers in australia are concerned about a cyber attack on the country's biggest health insurer meadow. bank. criminal stole details of nearly $10000000.00 customers, including the prime minister. the data exposed abortions and drug addictions matter bank refused to pay around sucking t k. f. c has apologized for encouraging german customers to mark the anniversary of an notorious anti semitic attack. the fast food chain invited customers to treat themselves in remembrance of the night in 1938 when nazi mob's attacked and destroyed jewish owned businesses. berlin bay start up is the 1st medical
