story about survival sanks to music. fetch the cello playoff. well, i was the only one. i'm super lucky. music under the swastika starts november 19th on d. w. ah . ah. business w. news alive from bullet climate talks in egypt and overtime as negotiates has tried to break a deadlock. the main issue, people pay for damages from climate to sauces, and how much of the coming up ukrainians can from the dock and cold aftermath of a week of rush,

an asteroid. keith says nearly half the nation's power grade has been knocked offline. one in 5 ukrainians is without electricity. and beijing residents are being urged to stay at home at mid rise in cases of coven 19, rather than a blanket lockdown authorities in the chinese capital r, trying more targeted meshes. but say they're still committed to a 0 cove. it policy ah, i'm all on psycho, it's good to have you with us. you in climate talks are dragging on past their deadline as well. latest wrangle of a how to compensate countries batted by the impacts of climate change. the big sticking point is the establishment of a fun to provide cash for vulnerable nations. the eve is backing the proposal, but divisions remain a who should contribute and who should benefit?

the use, surprise, awful has shaken up climate dogs. we more heard, good morning was the european commission, vice president, as the block will agree to a lawson damage fund, but only as long as countries like china contribute to it. huge steps forward. this is our final offer, this is where the member states can find an agreement. and i, i have to thank all of them for, for the courage to go to go this far. but this is it. lawson damage is the idea of some kind of compensation from rich nations to help poor nations already had hard by extreme climate events. it has been a highly contentious issue and this year's summit many developing countries are demanding a deal on a new fund to help them cope with the irreparable damage of floods, drought, and other climate impacts. time and funding has so far focus on cutting emissions and projects to have communities adapt to future impacts

loss and damage funding would be different in compensating costs that countries can't avoid or adapt to germany's foreign minister. his want against excluding major polluters, hinting at china are still europe is on the side of the most vulnerable countries. and as now, show which side there on the ship. the state that really need it should benefit from it. certainly, and not those that are only developing countries on paper and vic long, slender cent china as the 3rd largest historical amateur of greenhouse gases and the largest to day. but it has long been considered a developing country by the u. n. b u proposal puts both china and the u. s. on the spot, setting of a power struggle among the world's top 3 economies. calling

how it does appear that a deal is far from being reached. i asked our correspondent julia, suddenly in chanel shake, what she's been hearing. now that is exactly what we're hearing here. and there is also a concern coming from from a certain and negotiating parties that there may also be a back tracking compared to the agreements reach that the previous car last year in, in glasgow. we hear that there is concern that are even looking at wanting to keep alive the goal of keeping the global warming of, of the, of the globe below $1.00 degrees celsius or at the limit of 1.5 degrees celsius may also be called into question now, during the negotiations, it seemed like some countries do not want to stick to the commitment in that is very worrying, especially for we've heard from the european parties, but it is also worrying because scientists say that is the limit at which the worst consequences of climate change can be averted and also on the issue of

a phasing down fossil fuels. now, last year in glasgow, it was agreed that only the face down of coal would be entered into the agreement. and this year some countries including india, were pushing for this agreement to also include oil and gas. but it looks like this issue is also not going to be included in the agreement. or we've seen at least in previous draft that it's still only referencing call. and this is something that limits progress and trying to reduce emissions worldwide, which is really important in trying to mitigate the, the effects of climate change. and finally, the issue of funding is still very controversial and it seems like no agreement has yet been found on that issue. so some of the major issues still being discussed, you talked about funding, talk us through the use proposal and what countries do agree with it.

yes. so developed countries like e u, member states and the u. s. have traditionally been a, been against the idea of so called loss damage. that is the idea that richard developed countries should compensate to developing countries who are being hit the most by the consequences of climate change in global warming, but who have contributed the lease. now, there was quite a major step forward. we could say as in this year, the you has agreed to go. but it said it is open to looking into the possibility of creating a fund to which countries can contribute and then give money to the poor countries . but there are some conditions there. there don't seem to be object accepted by the developing countries. on the one hand of you, once china and other countries that were previous, considered previously considered developing by are now big economic powers and big emitters to also contribute to this fund. and also they want the money to only go

to the most vulnerable and developing countries, and that is obviously upsetting for middle income countries who also thought they could receive compensation for this fund. and this really seems to be the sticking point. the most important sticking point at this moment at cop. thank you very much, julia said oliver in shambles. shake. millions of people in ukraine are without power, water or heat as russia continues to target civilian infrastructure. the latest wave of russian missile strikes has disabled, almost half of ukraine's energy grid. with the 1st snow of the season falling in, keep residents are facing a cold, dark winter captured russian tanks covered in the winter's 1st snow. a reminder of when keith was much closer to the front lines. but while the fighting may be further away, the war is ever present as daily russian strikes have plunged hundreds of thousands

and here the restaurants now they had to shut down. they can only do a take out. the boss also had to shut down and we residents were told to basically us stay indoors and not leave them, especially the borders of the district. however, there is no city wide locked and we can still go out and go for walks. supermarkets are open, am other residence in other areas of china, not so happy. i mean in, in, in cynthia and for example, the northwestern region at large parts of the region are basically under locked down for more than $100.00 days. now, how are the chinese coping with these meshes? that really depends, i mean there's still people who am see the necessity of the strict rules. they support it and, and the number, however, of people who are frustrated, who are angry, increases a day by day. and, and that has to do m a with her really a huge disruptions off of the append demik routes. and many people have lost their jobs. a shop owners went bankrupt, et cetera,

checking in digitally and m, every movement is controlled. so i would say it's a mixed off in a health policy goals. and also political goals said as implemented here for the and thank you very much. that was 5 and catch my in beijing in the us, the 1st major snow storm of the season has paralyzed parts of new york state. well then, a meter of snow fell in some areas and forecasts as a warning that more heavy snow is expected over the weekend. waking up to a heavy blanket of snow in the u. s. the 1st major snowstorm for this winter has hit hardest in the west of the state of new york. it's knocked out power to thousands of people. airlines have canceled flights and schools have closed. officials have issued a travel band as the sudden snowfall trapped some dr. is on the roads.
