ah, one of the many success stories, bastion of biodiversity, say don't starts november 18th, on d, w. ah, ah, this is deed of the news live for berlin. the democrats come step closer to securing a majority in the u. s. senate mark kelley wins the key, raced in arizona, meaning the democrats draw even with the republicans. 2 of the senate races are still undecided. worldwide, protests demand. urgent action on global warming from the un climate conference in
6:01 pm
egypt. we will have to shovel shake more. and ukraine celebrates horses, liberate the southern city of house on crowds, cheer rushes, retreat president, lindsey calls it a historic day. ah, i'm told me all logical. welcome to the program. we began in the us where days after the midterm elections, congress control of congress remains on decided, democrat all the mach kelly has been reelected in the arizona senate race defeated . lake masters was backed by donald trump and is yet to concede, democrats or republicans now have 49 seats. each in the upper house of congress control will come down to the result in nevada or georgia,
6:02 pm
which is going to run off in december sworn. that let spring in dw correspondence. soon nissan has come down, who joins us from washington, dc. hi, so me. how important is be arizona when for the democrats? well nowadays tommy arizona's always important. i mean, it's been key to the democrats razor of the majority that they've had until in the senate until now. and president biden, some may remember, narrowly won the state in 2020. so the victory from r kelly puts the democrats one seat away from extending their senate majority for another 2 years. and there were so much money spent on campaigns on both sides of the aisle here told me to energize voters also to target latino voters who make a big part of the electorate. but i shouldn't, i should say that it didn't really come as a shock. and the democrat, mark kelley was favored heading into the election. and he had opened up a lead over his opponent. and so now going forward, as you mentioned in your lead,
6:03 pm
and there's going to be all the more scrutiny on what comes out of nevada. that's the other swing state. we're vote counting is still taking place to decide who wins that the senate that's going to be key. and then of course, we will all look to georgia. we're going to see a run off between the republican and the democrat. they are running for senate on december 6. so all in all, arizona is of course, very important, but we're still waiting for some decisive results. and mark kelley defeated a candidate that was backed by a former president donald trump. what does this tell us about? trump's influence at the moment while the former president hasn't been having the best of weeks, i mean many of the candidates he endorsed like blake masters in arizona, like a doctor or in pennsylvania, lost their races. and i think what's important to note here is that we're actually even seeing conservative right wing media starting to question the former president's influence on the party, how good he is for the party. so fox news, for example, here in the u. s. has been hosting guests who have been openly calling for donald
6:04 pm
trump to move on. i. he is furious about that. he has been a blaming republicans on his social media network, truth social. and he still expect to announce next week that he's running again for president. so i think it's important as well to say that, and the former president has been counted out before, and it is too soon to say whether his reign over the republican party is over. i do want to add though, that he has started a movement in the republican party, a movement of conservative populism. and that is still very influential. he has influence over several candidates who were running in the mid terms. and i think that it's important to remember that president trunks influence and what he has started, what he has unleashed in the republican party certainly is not over there. we very quickly. um, what impact do we think looking at these results? what would impact briefing they will have on the 2024 race for the white house? well, as i said, the former president donald trump is likely going to run. i mean,
6:05 pm
many observers believe that he will even though the republicans didn't perform while, even though his candidates didn't perform that well. and the current president joe biden, he sees these midterms as an affirmation of his policy. so that could mean he's more likely to run. he intends to, he says he will deliver a final decision or early next year. but tommy, with so much time left, 2 years a lot could still change before 2024. so we'll just have to wait and see cheryl be keeping an eye on that date. of the correspondence with me. so misconduct, thank you for bringing us up to speed away from washington. you as president joe biden is meeting southeast asian leaders at a summit in cambodia. he wants that 10 member regional block to help contain china's growing influence. biden says, the association of south east asian nations is central to his administration's plans in the region and his promising to tackle key issues including climate change and the rule of law abiding presence is meant to lay the groundwork for
6:06 pm
a meeting with the chinese president. she's in pain on my mom. another big topic for as ian is political violence in myanmar leaders are demanding a peace plan from genta. oh, residential area in myanmar houses on fire across the country, entire villages have been set ablaze. international observers say the military is behind the attacks. those who have not fled to violence are living in fear, ankle, when my cousin was shot in the street, he saw just attached a mind to his body meant for whoever tried to retrieve it. didn't someone tried to move the party with a long stick? my mind went off immediately to attend, but we got his body back in pieces through the naval warrior descent, including smuggling pictures like these out of me and mar, can be life threatening the repression and the on grew jealousy of the operations
6:07 pm
that the military is committing. against its own people, i think there's been no barrow before. now. we aren't getting. let's be frank, we're not getting any substantial assistance from abroad. there are hopes that the asean summit in put on pan could change that. the association of southeast asian nations is based on political and economic interests. the host nation cambodia, underlined what's at stake. global cut, no close to like perform millions of people live in our region. depend on wisdom and our foresight. longer model. everything depends on us making the right decision . so please just call we say rich guy. wow. but the un secretary general criticized how the international community had handled myanmar. every bought the s 5 musicians. we unlock the international community as a whole list of the when is part of international it is that i met you
6:08 pm
see in the suffering of the via bodies man. mars generals have been banned from attending the summit. still a consensus on concrete action. it could be elusive. the us, china and russia are invited to the meeting, all big players with conflicts of their own. some are doubtful that change will materialize. the mere mas case has to be an ed, has to be dr. basil and discuss at these high level summits. some people are becoming very out discouraged and cynical thing now all this, blah blah blah, is not going to have any effect. brutal seems like these serve as a powerful reminder of just how badly action is needed to another conference. this one, the united nations climate summit in egypt,
6:09 pm
which has reached the half way mark activists staging a worldwide day of action for climate justice. a much more action is needed, several 100 joined a rally in sydney, others demonstrated outside the cult. 27 talks in channel shake. campaigners are demanding an end to fossil fuel use. we also want western countries to pay compensation to developing nations for the loss and damage caused by climate change as go across to richard black, he focuses on climate science and international climate politics at the energy and climate intelligence unit. he joins us from sharm. l shake, welcome to the program. climate. reparations have been the key demand at this summit. do you see the industrialized nations taking this responsibility to very interesting question. so obviously, if you take, take it from the perspective of the part of the country's most affected by climate change,
6:10 pm
which tend to be the poorest countries around the tropics and so on. their argument is that, well, this damage has been cause to us. so basically someone is going to pay for us and if you don't, it's going to be us and we are the poorest countries on the planet. so why should we, we didn't cause it. now i think it's kind of politically very difficult for countries in the global north to sign up to that. so. so the agenda, because in a sense they'd be offering potentially an open checkbook. on the other hand, exactly, they clearly recognize that they have to do something to rhetorically even the u. s . is in the camp now of habit of saying that we have to do something, but reparation compensation. these are words that you won't hear coming from the us . some of you countries are a little bit in the middle, they put forward some parts of money. journey is put forward the big spot money. these are tens and hundreds of millions, rather than the billions and research and decades time trillions that would be needed to justify also to settle the claims of the poorest countries. so it's
6:11 pm
a lot to play for here. the most significant thing is that the, the richest countries in europe have started to make a move. and one of the key issues here is also in terminology this, when it comes to solutions. for example, there's that consensus that there needs to be a future powered by clean energy. but what does that even mean? have we come to kind of agreement on what that is? yeah, that's, i mean, it's fascinating here. seeing the biggest delegations being, being here, national delegations, being from countries that produce oil and gas. ah, now if you look at the economics of this, as you look at where the real world progresses in europe and many, many other countries as well. china, across the pacific, all kinds of places. it's clearly to do with wind and solar and electric vehicles. and increasingly heat pumps and, and green hydrogen production. all of those don't involve fossil fuels, which is really why the, the countries are the companies with massive fossil fuel production. have tried to
6:12 pm
build a different vision, a different vision based on oil and gas, continuing and making products from them, including so called blue hydrogen which is made from natural gas. that's really a made. i think the major kind of point of contest at the moment with these gas have countries pushing gas as a means of production. if you look at the site can't be. but a lot of politicians actually don't look at the science is news. post is the should . ok, that's quite a lot talk about, but this is all we have time for climate expert, richard black in shambles. 8. thank you for speaking to us. ukraine is celebrating the liberation of the key southern city of house on its forces, entered after russian troops withdrew from the area. the crumbling insists the city will remain part of russia despite the pullout chance of victory fill the air in newly liberated her son. this is the moment ukrainian forces are greeted with tears

6:14 pm
celebrate it together. what somebody to do to us re capturing her son is a big victory for keith. and a bit, a blow to russian president vladimir putin, who just a month ago declared the her son region to be forever. a part of russia, ukraine's president hailed the cities liberation. he would mean is that today is a historic day by mom. we're taking back the south of our country and i am taking back harrison. how is the people of harrison never gave up on ukraine? russia sas, more than $30000.00 troops, retreated across the nipper river to the southeast. from there, they have resumed attacks against ukrainian targets. look at attack on the city of nikolai of north west of her son. long range missiles destroyed an apartment building, killing several people. with thrushes still in control of large parts of southern
