9:02 am
countries hit by climate disasters, but there could be movement on that after a surprise offer from the european union linking financial aid to tougher emissions cuts. vulnerable nation several ready made it clear. time is running out when it comes to the effects of climate change that cop $27.00 delegates are battling against. few things stand out for the public, like polar bears losing the arctic ice. they depend on or the pacific island nation of to value seeing its islands potentially overcome by rising seas. dolphin warm pacific greetings from w. 2 values. foreign minister spoke from a digitized version of what could be 2 values, 1st landmass to go under line. we have not stepped up to the television. we must not doing so today. otherwise, within a lifetime to well will only exist to you. to follow officials at the global summit
9:03 am
point to the long held goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees celsius above pre industrial age levels. scientists and activists say catastrophe looms of temperatures rise more than that, the planet has already warmed by 1 point one degrees. why? the u. s. behind president joe biden, and the european union insist there holding firm to the 1.5 and are pushing china and other resistant nations to include the 1.5 degree figure in the climate summits, final agreement not back pedaling to 2 or even 2.5. degrees experts say that what's required is a phase out of the use of fossil fuels, the types that release carbon dioxide into the air that then traps heat in the atmosphere causing global warming. but a late draft of the declaration now calls for efforts to phase down as opposed to phase out fossil fuels. i think what we need at this crucial time in
9:04 am
infancy, we need solidarity. we need to think about our wills and a sense of taking care of i'm a world another sticking point to the concluding statement. delegates from developing countries like nigeria and pakistan, which endured extraordinary flooding this year, or somalia and madagascar suffering from major drought. the poor countries are calling for richer, more polluting countries to pay financial relief to nations that feel the pain of climate change, but are responsible for comparatively little of what causes it. it's a massive and controversial matter that rich countries, like the us are concerned, will set too much precedent even as climate. meanwhile, to value officials say that we're about massive efforts to tackle the causes of climate change. setting a precedent of any kind will no longer matter. from shallow shake, i'm joined by the w st. baker. sam,
9:05 am
i mentioned the deadlock there at talks at what's your assessment of uh, any progress there in egypt? yeah, it's been a particularly slow negotiation this year. i had spoke with one negotiator yesterday who said it's just been an especially hard year because there's so much talk of money this year. there was the movement over last night with the you proposing some sort of some sort of system for loss and damage funding. so this is the money that's needed for countries dealing with the aftermath of climate disasters. and they're proposing that in exchange for pledges from countries to face down oil, coal, and gas. they're not just coal, but all fossil fuels. now of course, that's a bit difficult because they need consensus here to reach an agreement. so countries like the u. s. have been very quiet on the funding matter for loss and
9:06 am
damage. and others like saudi arabia are unlikely to agree to the phase down. ok, the, the phase down rather than phasing out also the financing of those most vulnerable, i guess at the end of the day it all comes down to what countries can afford or believe they can afford yes, and i mean like i said, money has been a real sticking point at this year's a cop and you know, there have been some pledges, but there they've really been small amounts compared to what's needed. the u. k. a last year's host and egypt. this year's house commissioned a report of how much money would be needed to deal with climate change for these climate vulnerable countries. i report said 2 trillion $1.01 trillion of that, so half of that will need to come from external sources. so either from countries or private financing from outside those vulnerable countries, i'm so that's quite
9:07 am
a bit of money. it's 10 times the 100000000000 that was pledged back in 2009 by wealthier country as a yearly pledge they have so far been unable to meet a so it's unclear how they're going to increase that to 10 times that amount. ah, when, when a lot of these countries aren't willing to agree to such large sums. and so it's not just the tug of war between develop the developing countries, but also according to one report, 600 fossil fuel lobbyists who are registered at the socket. yes, there is quite a presence of fossil fuel lobbyist here. there's a whole pavilion for opec alone. and you know, this, this certainly has a presence here and it does water down negotiations for. however, there are also activists here there. and joe's here. i mean, it really is a place for all different groups to come together. so while some like red 10 burg
9:08 am
had decided not to come to this year's conference because they see it as green washing. i've spoken with many people this week from smaller nations activists from various countries in africa, in particular, who say, you know, this is, are one time a year to get the, the year of world leaders. so they still see value in these talks. and baker with the latest for us from cop 27 in general shape. thank you very much. russia has launched another wave of missile attacks across you crank killing at least 7 people and entering many more kicks as the strikes were mainly directed at our heating facilities and come as much of the nation sees its 1st significant snowfall president border. miss lensky says more than $10000000.00 ukrainians are currently without electricity. mike martin is war study senior visiting fellow at kings college london. i asked him if attacking civilian infrastructure was
9:09 am
a clever strategy for making territorial gets it's not actually it. russia is largely fighting a defensive war at the moment. they are very keen to shore up deposition over the winter. i think they're aware that ukraine will be continuing to push forward and attack over the winter. and so what they're doing by targeting civilian infrastructure, which is by the way, a war crime is it basically means that the training government have to focus on delivering power to civilians. rather than spending that energy to paring suits and motion positions. how can support as a broad allies of ukraine to been sending weapons, try to support or help the millions of ukrainians without power right now? it's very difficult if not impossible, which is why, probably why the russians are doing it. what's happening is that the infrastructure,
9:10 am
the power grid substations transmitters transmission lines, as well as some power generation are being hidden damage. and obviously the same structure is to build in many cases. so what the ukrainians are going to be able to do is repair small parts of it. and it is possible to provide pin prick power in places like hospitals by using generators. but the vast mass of the population. 10000000 people presence and he said freight is going to be when to largely without power for many of them and winter with very dim prospects. what, what's going to give in this war to see peace talks? i'm afraid that i'm not sure that we are going to see the stores the ukrainians have stated that their aims are to remove russian forces from the territory of ukraine, which is completely reasonable. and the russians have, as we've seen,
9:11 am
annexed several of those territories, and claims them as russia. so those mutually incompatible aims. i also would like to make the point, i think if we, if we rushed to pace now as attractive as a target, that is, we may well be storing up problems for future war in 5 or 10 years because the question would be settled. but in the meantime, these missiles strikes on power infrastructure on civilians on cities across ukraine. continue and seem to only intensify yes, and i'm afraid they are going to continue the winter. we are war is not a nice thing. it sounds like a very obvious statement that sometimes the russians to secure peace, to avoid the horrors of war stores are programs for future wars. and i think that's the situation now. mike martin at kings college learned and thank you very much for your analysis. thank you very much. even as they continue attacking civilian
9:12 am
infrastructure, russian troops are treated from several ukrainian territories that they'd occupy for much of the year. the w's mathias burling went to the town of chance, give just 4 kilometers from the russian border. the invading troops are gone, but they've left devastation behind them. it used to take less than 2 hours to dry, from hot gift to off chunks. now it takes 5. you have to take small, local roads and long th was all the major route and bridges are destroyed, which is 4 kilometers from the border with russia. the tone was taken on the 1st day of the war, broke us tell the russians set up a torture chamber in this country. they mostly took young men that very valid says so just ordered him to go there after they caught him outside of the curfew yard. the $11.00 of them i thought they would torture me. well,
9:13 am
i came as i was told at 8 am, but they just made me dig trenches was carry stuff around the door and stacks and bags had to be there at 8 and would work until 5 was. that's how they made me slave away. miss girl with a girl for the fellow manager houghton, everything looks broken and the russians do show from across the board. the people were still here with soon face a tough winter. electricity is often out and there's no gas for heating. some humanitarian aid does come, but not often. it's so hard to get there. given these conditions, not everybody is happy, the russians are gone. so usually when they were here, we could still live more or less. normally, there was work and we were getting humanitarian aid every 10 days. they would also
9:14 am
hand out money. now we have nothing. his me busy. there's not much for sale at the market and not many people, many left for russia with the retreating soldiers. it's an area long considered pro russian. now the ukrainians are in charge again. many are anxious and suspicious. painters as collaborators says a woman, she won't be on camera. oh, you did. the claim. mistrust is everywhere. soldiers in charge of the town worry that locals are in the rush yet, but not least, we hear about those who are working with both sides. they used to tip off the russians. now they come to see us and say this, or that person was a collaborator. i thought them which all tumbled to job
9:15 am
so he is only here to have his mother prepare for winter. took his wife and young daughter out of town and will soon join them. but he is determined to return and hopes the town can get back to normal ways we're on our soil. we didn't attack anybody another. we don't want anything else. i wish more shelling. this is what the days are like in both chance. time for some other stories making use the white house heads asked the federal court to grant immunity to saudi crown. prince mom had been salman. the prince is accused of playing a role in the murder of journalists, jamica, shall she in turkey, the classified intelligence documents show that u. s. officials believe summon, ordered the killing, but the state department says he is to senior,
9:16 am
to prosecute. malaysia has back the dutch courts life sentence in absentia to, to russian intelligence agents, and it ukrainian separatist leader a help down in malaysia airlines flight over ukraine in 2014 was hit by a russian. this all 5 for territory. ukraine help by pro mostly separatists. the kremlin has rejected the ruling. north korea has test find another intercontinental ballistic missile. it's the 2nd major weapons test this month. the missile flu eastwood from the outskirts of the north korean capital pyongyang and landed about 200 kilometers of the japanese coast in the countries exclusive economic zone. military analysts say the miss, i would have had the range to hit the american mainland. japan's prime minister for me. ok, she does condemns the test. it started so soon we made a stern protest to north korea. they are repeating provocative actions with unprecedented frequency davis. we strongly state again that this is absolutely
9:17 am
unacceptable. you will show us and let's go to south korea. josh smith is senior correspondent with the what is news agency, josh, what more can you tell us about today's miss on test this may be a test by north korea this year of an icbm class weapon system. and let's say that the suggest that they are pushing full steam ahead on trying to develop a long range weapons, which as you mention, have the range to potentially deliver their warhead to anywhere in the us mainland . this increases pressure certainly washington as well as other partners, basically at a point where they seem to have to you options to stop this renewed testing by north korea. this also comes as north korea has made apparent preparation to conduct a new killer test, which would be as 1st since 2017. it's still unclear,
9:18 am
but we'll go through with that. but these increasingly long range and major weapons tests by north korea. do have many observers believing that they're only going to increase the tempo and scale their testing as stressing long range. japanese officials say the miss m, i have had the range to hit the us mainland. what's the message from north korea? north korea this year and build a new new killer policy law which is said caught it by just right to develop the weapons as well to actually use them preemptively, to stop any threats against it. or his interest is basically argued to the united states in the international community that it has the sovereign right to develop nuclear weapons as well as these missiles. and it's making that point with repeated missile tests. these are often time around the time when united states and its
9:19 am
allies conduct military rule that they have recently, or the united nations meets about north korea and discusses additional sanction. all of the send the signal from north korea to the world that there's little anyone can do to stop it and developing weapons, and that is going to continue to do so. asia pacific leaders meeting at the apex summit in thailand today, how they responded. us vice president harris actually stepped out a meeting there and joined leaders from australia, japan, south korea, canada, and new zealand on the sidelines. there to condemn this latest launch. they basically said that it was a brazen violation of un security council resolutions and bout that was unacceptable and needed to stop at the same time. as i mentioned, there's few concrete makers that any of these leaders there seem to be able to take
9:20 am
dismissal on the latest beacon in global security challenge that overshadowing their which would typically be focused on on economic issues. thank you very much for coming in. reuters correspond, josh, it's all or the woke up kicks off in cut out on sunday. more than a decade, millions of migrant workers have toiled to build 8 stadiums renovated airport and a completely new public transportation system. but human rights groups say cut has migrant workers are often forced to labor under extremely poor conditions, demanding compensation. there's never been a world cup like this one. the 1st in the arab world, boasting aid state of the art stadiums. by far the most expensive tournament in fi, fi history, and the most controversial one. for years human rights organizations have
9:21 am
criticized the working conditions on katara construction sites. thousands of migrant workers suffered wage theft, paid extortionate recruitment fees, or even died under unexplained circumstances. malkin b, dolly worked as the security guard in cut off for 3 years. the canyon spent a month and a doha jail, after exposing how cut our treats. it's migrant workers, crowns living conditions. this is lee lakes estate, dental monro, depending on how generous than boys feeling. and oh, no one who knows. according to the godaddy below the mostly joking hours, it already gotten a little draws over time. oh, but frank companies will give you an example of that equals international trade unionists. deep moshef, i've heard such accounts when he travelled to cut out to examine the country's working and living conditions. the german acknowledges that come to us government recently introduced some more work of friendly legislation. according to sheriff us
9:22 am
. however, many of those improvements only exist on paper. katara was thus cut, our simply needs to better control the reforms. it has initiated that we need many more inspectors. we need much more drastic penalties if employers do not comply with the new lawson. but one and that's missing so far, lloyd is that 3rd on does field busier? cat us government admits that there are still some deficits, but it also complains that the country is being treated unfairly. well, i'm not claiming we are a person, but it's a journey that we will, we will, right. let's be realistic and come down rather than just jump into the wave so that we just talk about him movement. we all respected, but we need to be a bit, you know, modest about the human rights groups have led demands for thief and cut out to create a compensation fund for migrant workers to remedy abuses during world cup preparations
9:23 am
. but cut us government has already rejected such demands, calling them the publicity stunt. they brought back from dw sports joins as they were just days away from the world cup. has the world been taken over by woke up fever? no, not particularly. and of course, as we saw, there's a lot of controversy around this world cup, and that has put a pretty big wrong in putting a damper on excitement the migrant labor issues. here are the questions of labor conditions and guitar, human right issues in the country as well at really kind of tone down the usual pre world cup buzz that you'd expect. i think also there is some sort of logistical issues. it's during the middle of the european season, so it feels a bit rushed to rebrand this video games just just a week ago. so it kind of feels almost like nowhere, no time to build up excitement. and of course, in the northern hemisphere, it's the 1st winter world cup. so that's where we will for some parts of the world
9:24 am
. but for the majority of the planet, this is the kind of new experience. true, usually the streets a buzzing here, but a lot of people don't even what want to watch the world cup this year. so the human rights issues, but also for fans who are interested in the world cup and want to actually go and see it. especially l. g, b, t, q, fats. what, what's the situation like there in cutter? yeah, i mean, homosexuality is criminalized and tournament organizers have given kind of vague assurances about the safety of fans or are planning on attending. and i do think with so much attention on the world cup, it's relatively unlikely that visiting sands are going to get in too much trouble. i think it's more like to be likely to be a potential issue is for tyree residents themselves. if they get involved in protests, if they're caught breaking the law, i could imagine repercussions could be a lot bigger. but it's also a question that players have wrangled with as well. england has started
9:25 am
a one love campaign where there's a rainbow arm band that captains where in a show of solidarity. but it's also unclear just how many captains and teams will actually wear these. we have a clip here from you got lucky, the french captain on his thoughts about it. not quite often when we are in france and we welcome foreigners. we often want them to follow our rules to respect our culture can expect in the future. and i will do the same when i go to kata isn't quite simply because you will get to some people. and so i can agree or disagree with their ideas. but i have to show respect for that. so as we see there, that's a relatively common response. and personally, i think it's a bit of a cop out, but i think it shows what's a bit farcical about the entire thing. fifo has put fans players teams in a very difficult position where they all kind of individually have to make decisions about, you know,
9:26 am
what kind of statements will they make. do they feel comfortable watching this? do they feel comfortable attending? and then you know, we're talking about arm bands when the tournament is still being played in a tournament where homosexuality is illegal. and i think it just shows some of the issues with how we're sort of discussing this. what about on the pitch when i get to that, yeah, at least who's actually going to windy, right? i mean, and again, i just, i call about someone for copying out just a 2nd ago. i might do it myself because it's the middle of the season. so many big names are injured. teams haven't really had time to jo. i think it's going to be very unpredictable. a lot of people are talking about south american teams. maybe messy. lifting it with argentina and his last big go. i think if i had to pick on live television, which it seems i do, i would say germany, they've not been in the best form, but they're always good at surprising and getting ugly wins. so could be them. ok, does it have anything to do with the fact that you hear building in germany?
9:27 am
nothing at all, and nothing to do with that. a friend from the w. suppose. thank you very much for the analysis. going to be very interesting. woke up in watching d. w. use a quick reminder of our top story there. european union has offered a proposal at the called $27.00 climate summit, a loss and damages fund, full climate vulnerable countries. the issues the both contagious item on the agenda, the e u. delegation says it hopes the proposal will help bring the conference to a successful ploy of next level 3000. i bank with a, with
