8:02 pm
a font have dominated the last 2 weeks of talks. but the proposal still needs to be voted on by delegates, and it postpones the key decision of which countries would pay into the new fund until next year when climate summit let's bring in the w correspondent, tim shalon. burke has been covering the un climate summit and joins us from sham else. shake. hello to you, tim. so we understand the negotiators and their teams have now withdrawn into the plenary. so how close are they to reaching an agreement? well, that is a very difficult question. to answer, especially after this rather dramatic negotiations that we have seen here today. it started with their job and presidency, presenting a draft text which did not include a high ambitions on emission reductions at which was basically a red flag for the issue and member states. because according to them,
8:03 pm
it would have essentially taken out the wind and the strength out of out of any climate ambition that would reach which would open doors still remain the window open to reach 1.5 degrees of very important a target. and this lead has let you commissioner front simmons this morning, a stepping in front of the in front of the press saying if we cannot agree on higher ambitions towards a higher climate ambitions, and it's better to leave the table then having a bad deal. so it's, it's not clear what is coming out of here. the, the, the negotiation, sorry, are very tough. we have seen ministers are discussing on corridors. so foreign minister and alina burbock with the issue with spain, with ireland. it was a very difficult situation this afternoon. and it was not clear if could negotiations would continue at all. and here we are. still. ministers are still
8:04 pm
talking, but the outcome is still open. now you mention the limit of 1.5 degrees celsius warmer. that's always been the key element. since the paras agreement back 2015. can you explain why this is so important? why this limit of $1.00 degrees of warming? i give you an example of a extreme and deadly he'd waive that would have occurred once per decade in a world without humans burning fossil fuels would occur almost 4 times in a word of $1.00 degrees global warming and 6 times per decade in a word of 2 degrees, and there we see the small numbers make a huge difference. additional to that $1.00 or 2 degrees decides over millions more suffering from extreme floods. extreme droughts, hurricanes, sea level rise,
8:05 pm
not to speak about the catastrophic damages to ecosystems. d w 's, tim schellenberg at the you and climate summit in egypt. thank you so much. or we can now bring in indiana charlotte and she is associate director of the washington d. c. office of the highland hbo foundation, which is loosely affiliated with germany, is green party. michelle tech has followed climate finance for more than 10 years, and she also joins as from the climate conference in shemelle shake. welcome to d w. so it looks like we could be close to a deal on a loss and damages fund. what are the remaining sticking points? well, the decision on the lawson damage are actually quite clear. what the sticking point right now is the loss and damage fund is to be decided as part of an a well package
8:06 pm
. and as your correspondence has pointed out, the sticky point right now is the mitigation work program where we understand they were still until literally a couple of minutes ago. i think the closing flannery is just now about to start very on an act. serious negotiation is going on and that goes to the question off on vacation and for some, for the you who has made it very clear in their discourse in the course of the day that they see it as a package deal. so that their loss and damage funds should be agreement that we have including with the textual elementary and that are confirmed and seem to be agreed upon. only goes from when the higher package is going to be agreed. now even following climate finance for a long time, why is it's such a contentious issue? well, it speaks basically to the question of equity. and what in the conference
8:07 pm
parlance is called common, but differentiates responsibilities and respective capabilities. that means that takes his historical responsibility off, larger emit, emitting countries, developed countries into account. and so climate finance has traditionally and is under the convention and obligation that developed countries have to provide to developing countries and in order to help them with their climate action. and so over the course of the last couple of years, we've seen basically the effort to kind of re interprets in the aftermath of the parents agreement. what actually that responsibility means whether it still has to apply to all developing countries, or whether there is some differentiation. again, the issue is these equity. i think, particularly when you're looking at loss and damage. it's also one off more responsibility. we can't expect the people that countries in countries and
8:08 pm
communities who have contributed very little to climate change have not had the advantage that basically the industrial revolution and the related historical emissions have fought for their life science to be at the front and not get any support from those countries which actually have become rich countries and because of the emissions that they happened made it over a long time. that was liana, shall i say, she's associate director of the height of a firm foundation office in washington d. c. we thank you very much. thank you. to ukraine now where a crowds have greeted the 1st train carrying passengers to this that in southern city of her son, a week after was liberated from russian occupiers. there's plenty of joy and relief among those returning, but the danger is not over yet. ukrainians still face harsh conditions including
8:09 pm
widespread power outages. as winter approaches cheers. as the 1st train inter liberated her son, posed into the station. after enduring 8 months of russian occupation, these families are finally reunited. oh, dear lou through it's completed. you book i haven't cried for a long time. no. and now finally you cry when i see my daughter. ah ukrainians are calling this the victory train. but victory and her son has come at a heavy price. russian soldiers left the city in pieces littered with land mines and its power grid in ruins. as ukrainian troops make gains on the battlefield. moscow has been targeting the power grid instead. nearly half of the network has already been destroyed, leaving millions of ukrainians without heat or electricity. at
8:10 pm
a time when temperatures are dropping below 0, the head of ukraine's biggest private energy firm has urged people to leave the country to reduce demand monopoly doug. so player to saying, yeah, of course i think the 30 ace and me worth and i may have to make a decision and go abroad because without electricity got out gaff useful without heating, it will be no conditions to survive it with a child to actually see about the 1st now is usually a sign that the festive season is just around the corner. but for ukrainians it's an ominous reminder of the danger that lies ahead. or thief of president johnny and santino was in a combative mood with just a day to go until kick off as he defended host nation carter. and attackers critics issue such as exploited of labor practices and the persecution of homosexuality and
8:11 pm

8:12 pm
because when his family moved from italy to switzerland, he actually suffered discrimination and bullying because he had red hair and freckles. this was really shocking to some people. so as much as infants, you know, might leg all the focus to be about the football. it's kind of hard at this point with all the important geopolitical and social issues that are going on and really taking the forefront for something else that has been in focus. is this decision by can't tar just the other day to reverse it's policy and now announced a ban on the sale of alcoholic beverages at stadiums. how have fans been taking this news? so for more than a decade, guitar and people have said that there was going to be via the stadiums. and in a shock, you turn decision just 2 days before kick off, they said that it will now be banned at the stadiums, but it will still be available at the fan zones and in designated areas. now we
8:13 pm
actually talk to some parents who had just arrived in guitar and they didn't even know about the, the band to what they said to me was after they were shocked. they said that they felt a little bit trick that this decision was so last minute and also it's left a lot of fan groups asking themselves if could tar and few thought were really to be trusted when it comes to bigger issues like the security of all fans, and now the opening match is of course less than a day away. so how will you describe the atmosphere of this world? cough well, i mean, at the beginning i was a little difficult, didn't really feel like a world cup. but if you look around, i mean, look around me right now. we're all new sal boulevard in doha. everywhere is covered and world cup decorations. there are fan jones. there is massive player billboards on every building. and as you can see behind me, a lot of bands here a lot from the region, we haven't seen as many from europe or south america yet,
8:14 pm
