1:02 pm
where the cop 27 climate summit has been extended a nother day organizers. hope the new deadline will give negotiators time to find common ground on several thorny issues. now, one is compensation for countries hit by climate disasters. what there could be movement on that after surprise offer from the european union, linking financial aid to tougher emissions cuts. vulnerable nations have already made it clear that an agreement would be impossible without funding for loss and damages to sharon. you take, for instance, some obo, cod shoes, i think in dominique or the i've been debts until you. good afternoon. this is a zone republic. so we consider this an urgent matter that should be addressed and we're not back away from a minimum position of this call that lawson dumb is from the establish in order to make a bare abode in as through a financial resources and pay for the recall. oh,
1:03 pm
i would like to speak now to your can a fast bar to state secretary in the german federal ministry for economic cooperation and development. he's in sharm el, shake egypt. i'd like to welcome you 1st to d, w. and thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us. we know there are a worrying number of issues are still left to be resolved at this moment. and perhaps biggest of all is financing. what is your position on retro nations compensating for countries who are suffering the effects of climate change? i mean it's absolutely essential for us to have those in need. those affected most of the by an ongoing climate change. these are usually countries that have not done a lot for this climate change. those emissions are very, very low, and therefore we supported those countries of vulnerable countries. how as we call them here, to get this agenda item. but germany also organized something practical on the
1:04 pm
ground. we organized the launch a global issue against clam address. so to have a double check one on the negotiation side. but the as a one, bringing immediate her to those in needs. and so can you give us a peek behind the scenes, baron shamal shake and tell us what is the hold up on coming to a deal on financing? so the question here, as in negotiations, 1st of all, to start it that was done 2 weeks ago. and the other one is how to designs ahead. and there were several options on the table to create to fund under existing entities like said, mean climate from or to some to do some st. standalone something brand new and do european union as well as, as many as a old industrialized or donor countries are heading for. we're looking at a number of options. but as we saw that our people,
1:05 pm
our partners in the developing world, specifically the most vulnerable, and we're not satisfied with looking at the whole range of options for yesterday by executive vice president tim a month. announce that europe is open to the side on the front here, and shannon's check already given that all those who are part of the problem are also part of the solution. so we need to extend the so called donor bases and involve countries like china to get a problem solved. so we know that europe is willing to pay for climate losses and damages or countries. but there are some rich nations who say they don't agree with this approach. they believe sending it would send money to countries that are not on the front line of kind of climate change. can you tell me more specifically who we are talking about here specifically? well i think it's basically a year now or about the design of the different instruments and whether or not we
1:06 pm
don't get a dedicated fund and to pace into this front. and we believe that this has a, as to be a broad range of countries, also innovative instruments. but to be very clear and explicit countries like china has to be part of those who are paying to those who are in need. and we also want to links is, is the overall mitigation agenda because we need to limit climate change to $1.00 degrees. otherwise we need more efforts for adaptation and etc. and there is more pain in the world and more need for to pay for loss or damage to bringing it about part in part, bringing china onsite. i would also, however, like to talk about germany's role in climate change, specifically when other scientists working on the climate action tracker have are rated germany's policies as insufficient to meet the paras agreements 1.5 celsius
1:07 pm
temperature. lynette, i think poor countries will look at that and wonder why they should do their best. how would you respond to that? yeah, i know it's a assessments of different insur jude. but i need to say germany is still one of the very few one who have a very clear target to be climate move, not only 2050, but also already 2045. it is by law is not, not just a political announcement. yes. we are in a different situation at the moment. due to the russian war of aggression against your crime. you know, we need to use a little bit more cold during this winter season, and maybe the next one. we will need a bit more gas from other countries because we don't want to buy a gas any longer from russia. but this doesn't mean at all that we are not following our line of the country. it's a cold phase or be speed up from 2035 to 2038 already to 2030 to
1:08 pm
all our friends can believe we will exhaust ourselves to be pioneers on climate change as well. thank you very much for that. that's your conspired state secretary in germany, operation development. and i appreciate your time while russia has launched another wave of missile attacks across ukraine, killing at least 7 people and injuring many more. he says the strikes were mainly drafted up power and heating facilities. that with winter arriving as much of the nation sees its 1st significance. no for president vladimir zalinski has more than 10000000 ukrainians are currently without electricity. i'd like to get straight across to databases correspond indiana philip short to joining me now from a key of and how are you and the residents of keith being impacted by these power outages. they're still regular power cuts all over the city
1:09 pm
under major power provider just said that the grid is still running on less than half of the normal capacity of this. i'm in a privileged situation of chorus here in the hotel, we have a generator, but a lot of for ukrainians, most of craniums of course don't have this kind of luxury. it's at home. and sir, a big problem is that electricity means much more than lives. it can affect a lot of vital services like running water and especially now of course that the winter sets in eating is the biggest problem. a lot of ukrainians rely on electricity for their, for hitting their homes are either because of the, the central heating system is so to week or it's non existent. so there are really a lot of problems ahead for the city and the whole country is not a difficult but dangerous. and yet russia is blaming this suffering on ukraine itself because it won't come to the negotiating table at this stage in the war. do
1:10 pm
you see any indication that people there in ukraine would be interested in peace talks? i asked the same question too many people here and keith, and the answer is always a clear no. a colleague of mine said he doesn't know a single person in ukraine that wants to negotiate with russia at the moment. and i think this is truly the case, sir. in the, in the country. and a government spokesperson just said that he thinks rush as trying to use the same methods as terrorists are harming innocent people to have their demands met. and he also added that he is quite sure that sir, by destroying civilian infrastructure, not a single ukrainian will come to the negotiating table. and so as we go on in these cold winter months, how is the ukrainian government planning to address as crisis?
1:11 pm
well, the government says that more than 1000 specialists are working around the clock to repair the infrastructure. and of course, there are also restrictions on consumers. but the big problem is that with every attack, it gets more and more difficult to find the equipment, sir, to repair the infrastructure. and so the government, of course says the best meffort is prevention and prevention in this case means more air defense systems, sir. so that, so the message that are targeted to the infrastructure can be intercepted as our correspondent young philip shots reporting from care. thank you so much for the update. and even as they continue attacking civilian infrastructure, russian troops have retreated from several ukrainian territories that they'd occupied for much of the year dw mateus. belinda went to the town of chance near

a u. s. lawsuit for allegedly ordering the murder of journalist jamal kiasha v. in turkey. us intelligence officials believe the prince ordered the killing will this week aaron's protests entered their 3rd month with more deadly clashes. the demonstrations were sparked by the death of a young woman in police custody, arrested for allegedly, failing to wear her head scarf correctly. but they have morphed into more wide ranging protests against the iranian government. as the violence continues across the country, funerals are being held for demonstrators killed by security forces. ah hundreds gathered in the western radiant city of pecan on thursday for the funeral of a protester killed the night before. human rights groups. se protests in the islamic republic have been at the most violent in recent nights, wednesday, so deaths in various locations in the country,
1:17 pm
south and west. among the victims, 2 boys, 114 years old. the other just 9. in that city of easy gunman on motor bikes killed several people in the state media describe the incident as a terrorist attack. however, eye witnesses claim security forces opened fire on protesters. but despite the danger, demonstrators came out to protest again on thursday. many were commemorating those killed in the so called bloody november protests of 2019 back, then the authorities cracked down on people protesting against rising fuel prices. but these protests sparked by the death of 22 year old mazda armine, showed no signs of dying down into hon. people were filmed in a subway station chanting. i'm a free woman. you other pervert you are. the hor,
1:18 pm
moses before the chased away. it appears despite the danger. iranians are still willing to risk everything for a bright future. and hundreds of employees are believed to have accident twitter on thursday following an ultimatum by new boss, ellen musk that they must work long hours at high intensity or leave with severance pay. and the company hasn't provided official numbers, but rumors were right on the twitter platform at the site could even collapse. given the departures. the claim that slater marked his ultimatum arrive wednesday and asked employees to commit to be hardcore. i clicking a button by thursday evening. those who didn't were to receive 3 months of severance, pay said help us understand what is going on at twitter, my colleagues, even beardsley frontier, the business joined me in the studio as steven what you these departures mean for
1:19 pm
twitter or means the twitter is a shell of what it used to be in terms of staffing, you know, when must took over it? he came on her and employ base. it was 7500 strong. after a 1st round of layoffs about a week ago that went down to less than $3000.00 and now several 100 more so naturally there are concerns that that could lead to problems with the platform itself as well as the company. when we look the platform, we know that many senior engineers have lost full teams, have left as well. and it's hard to say what kind of turnovers they even gave, because in both cases, the lay offs and this latest round, it's been very abrupt. the way that things have taken place. we know that there been more reports of twitter outages in recent days. that's led to speculation. there could be some collapse and that they would scramble to find the engineers who could then pull the site back together. and this is days before or the world cup, which means that uses should be even higher. it goes beyond the platform of course and into the company. when you look at account executives and advertising side are gone. them is that they don't have their connections anymore. we, you look at compliance, staff, or those who are connecting to european regulators,
1:20 pm
for example. some of them were caught up in the round of layoffs and suddenly european regulator say, hey, we're week, they said, who are we talking to? i'm so all of this is, is generating that, you know, i did, there's like, hey, us right now, yet none of that sound good in the least. but how is ellen musk responding to these allegations that twitter is in free fall? yeah, he's responding the way he responds to to most of this he makes light of every makes jokes. ah, he enjoys a mocking the, the criticism trolling his credits and other words. and then sometimes he does acknowledge mistakes. we've seen him go back and actually re hire some people who is. he's fired before i suggest that he needs hire some people that he needs to turn around and do things differently, you know, must have made no secret. the fact that he wants to create a new twitter and that he's going to take sudden, abrupt turns in that process, he's going to admit mistakes. he's going to suddenly do things over. the question is, how much leeway he's going to have? how much before time runs out. remember that he's face a similar situation before tesla. there was a time several years ago when investors were betting that that company was not
1:21 pm
going to meet very critical production goals. so what it must do, he went out to the production sites. he spent nights there, he did a lot of ad hoc tinkering, and ultimately they met those production goals, required a lot of work. and so he likes being backed into a corner, and i think he sees this as analogous even though it's hard to say for really is to where is and really difficult position. and his acquisition of it didn't even seem that serious in the 1st place. he also overpaid for it considerably. ok, let's have all that hard court work. hayes off. thank you so much that stephen beardsley from a business team or we've mentioned that the world cup kicks off and cut our on sunday for more than a decade, millions of migrant workers have toil to build 8 stadiums a renovated airport and a completely new public transportation system by human rights groups have long sounded the alarm about the conditions faced by guitars, migrant workers who are often forced to labor in extremely poor conditions, out there demanding compensation. there's never been a world cup like this one. the 1st in the world, boasting

a state of the art stadiums, by far the most expensive tournaments in fi, fi history, and the most controversial one. for years human rights organizations have criticized the working conditions on ca, top construction site. thousands of migrant workers suffered wage theft, paid extortionate recruitment fees, or even died under unexplained circumstances. my can be dolly worked as a security guard and cut off for 3 years. the kenyan spent a month in a doha jail. after exposing how cut are treat, it's migrant workers crunch living conditions. this is a like a 10 told people depending on how general employees feeling and low money because they were supposed to be a booking. i was a company close over time. like to find companies looking at $1240.00 now

1:24 pm
modest about the human rights groups have led demand for fee find cut out to create a compensation fund for migrant workers to remedy abuses during world cup preparations. but cut us government has already rejected such demands, calling them publicity, done. and while the world cup has been embroiled in controversy, when he expected it might resemble pass tournaments once the 1st ball is kicked. well, that won't be the case in the stand. cutter has banned the sale of alcoholic beer stadiums just 2 days before the opening match, and kept off the month of 10th negotiations between fever and the whole country. and could be in violation of a multimillion dollar sponsorship deal with budweiser. now, 5 years ago, a newspaper article was published that shocked hollywood and had an impact far beyond the film business. it allegations against powerful producer harvey weinstein triggered the me to movement against sexual abuse and ultimately led to his
