as the 1st passenger train arrives in house song after the city was liberated from russian occupation. but the danger isn't over. brushing strikes have left millions of ukrainians without electricity and heating as winter sets in. and in sports, the 1st president lashes out that critics of the world cup and cat talk with kick off just hours away, the focus is again, not on the football will take you to dough. ah, i'm all all psycho every will welcome to the program. negotiate is you n scope $27.00 climate summit in egypt have approved and historic deal on compensation for vulnerable nation like off the days of gridlock. countries at the summit agreed to settle been losses and damage fun to help the nations most at risk of climate to celsius world calls for such
9:02 am
a font have dominated the last 2 weeks of talks. the details of the deal still have to be negotiated, including which countries would for the bill. now, while the deal has one praise, many officials say it falls short on both loss and damaged provisions and on commitment to reducing emissions. here's what used climate policy. chief france timmons had to say, we are proud of our contribution to the creation of this fund that will serve the interest of those most the need of support. but i urge you to acknowledge when you walk out of this room, that we have all fallen short in actions to avoid and minimize las and damage. we should have done much more. our citizens expect us to lead. that means far more rapidly reduce emissions. d w climate report. i did you ran john joins me now. i did. so they've agreed on a deal where richer countries will pay poor countries will help them out to try
9:03 am
to deal with the damage climate change has done. what does this mean in practical terms? i mean that rich countries are now forced to not only look at helping poor countries adapt. so building high sea walls and things like that. all clean up the energy grids and kind of helping them build renewable energy and wind turbine solar panels on. but also that they're accepting some of the financial responsibility for extreme weather events that have been made worse by the fossil fuels. we've been disproportionately in countries like germany in the u. s. and francis on. and so this is a huge step forward because the 30 years or so poor country that kind of been asking for this and all the climate talks, it's never been something was in been on the agenda this year for the 1st time it got put on to the discussion table and after kind of huge 2 weeks of incredibly intense negotiations, countries like economies like you and the u. s. which previously blocked all the
9:04 am
terms of this, have relented to some degree. and so they'll set up a fund. so it's a big step forward, but there are those who say that this fund already falls short of what is needed. exactly. i mean there's 2 ways you can look at it. first of rich countries definitely do not want to accept any liability for the damage is done because i feel that if they, i mean one of the big barrison, i'm setting up the 1st place with the feeling that if they agree to any type of financial responsibility then they'll be left with a bill that will run into the trillions of dollars. the 2nd aspect of this is that the repeatedly failed to keep the promises. so in a climate, some in 2009 in copenhagen, rich countries agreed to pay poor countries. $100000000000.00 a year by 2020. that money never materialized. they got about 83000000000 by 2020. and even now today they're still trying to catch up and get to the 100000000000 numbers. so i think there's a lot of skepticism from the poorest countries that the amount of money needed will be even put in the spot apart from the fund. what else is in the deal that's been
9:05 am
a great and challenging and more of what they, what's not in the deal for a lot of technicality of which have been progress on all sorts of areas. but the key thing that's missing really, from here is very clear statements about getting rid of fossil fuels. so the only line that the deal contains referring to them is saying getting rid of on the base and beta coal power, which means co pa plans. i haven't been fitted with technology to capture the carbon dioxide from them and facing out inefficient fossil fuel subsidies. there's no clear definition of what other base actually means in this context. how good these carbon capture technologies need to be. and there's no clear definition on what inefficient in, when you're subsidizing fossil fuel products. what's really absent from the document that we saw this morning if words like coil and gas, which are fossil fuels, when you burn them, heat the planet. and we know from the science of science reports that this same declaration, welcome to explicitly, they make it very clear,
9:06 am
we need to rapidly get rid of the fossil fuel sources. there's still room in the mix for a small amount by 2050. but then with the technologies to capture them in place and definitely on a scale that's drastically lower than what we've got now. right, so mixed results in terms of climates policy executives thank very much. i g runjun dw climate report now and ukraine. crowds have gathered, have greeted the 1st train rather carrying passengers to the southern city of her son a week after it was liberated from russian occupation. although there was relief among those returning for many of the danger isn't over ukrainians. so face harsh conditions including widespread power outages, as winter approaches. ah, she is as the 1st train into liberated house on pulls into the station after enduring 8 months of russian occupation,

feeler and migrant worker. thousands of migrant workers have faced with staff or even died under unexplained circumstances and guitars since the world cup was awarded 12 years ago. infant, you know, argued the world cup and attention around it have helped improve conditions highlighting for pulse potential for change. the only weapon that we have is this is the mall. and we have to try with this to engage, to explain, ah, and to and they was us. despite these words of solidarity infant, tina has failed to speak out about a proposed compensation fund for migrant workers that would provide restitution for labor abuses suffered preparing for the world cup even as the tournament gets ready for kick off. if these and other vital topics aren't addressed more seriously, it's unlikely, infantile. we'll get a break from the criticism. earlier i spoke to
9:12 am
d, w. sports correspondent, dana barcelona, and doha, and asked her what she made of johnny infant interest criticism. so many people have called infant, he knows press conference, bizarre now he started that out with a lecture to journalist where he said it was time to start focusing on the football and to stop moralizing. i mean, we heard, he criticized the west and europe, and he said that there an absolutely no position to be criticizing guitar after what they've done throughout the history. now, the part where people were most confused was where he actually compared his situation to migrant workers. he said that when his family moved from italy to switzerland, he suffered discrimination and bullying because he had red hair and freckles. and i mean for him to compare himself like that to migrant workers, a life. many people shocked. so as much as infants you know, might like for the focus to be all about for bought right now it feels like the problem is kind of taking a backseat to the other, more important social and geopolitical issues. all right,
9:13 am
so it is the opening day of the world cup. what is it like being in doha right now? i mean, everywhere you look in, doha is covered in decorations. it's very obvious that could tar. and if they spared no expense in getting ready for this tournament, there are fan fast experiences, concerts, massive player billboards on buildings. so the vibe is very well cut now. we hadn't seen as many fans from europe and south america, but we didn't see a lot of fans from the region. and they told us how excited they were, especially last night where our lucid boulevard. they just can't wait for the 1st row cut in an arab nation to take place. the guitars were out in numbers, dancing with flags. they do have a game tonight, and they're actually expecting a win. so it is the 1st time the host nation is participating in a world cup. what can you tell us about the team?
9:14 am
right, so a lot of people don't know guitar as for buying nation because it doesn't really have the history of other countries like argentina or brazil, or even germany. but i can tell you that guitar have been preparing their for by generation from scratch for the last 20 years. now they're had coach felix sanchez . he's from barcelona, as lamazzo academy. he's really been spearheading this project. i can also tell you that guitar is probably the most well prepared team in the tournament. they've been together for the past 8 months in a training camp that is a long time. some players have actually left their clubs and only trained with the national team for this whole time. so there's also the fact that they are the host nation. there is all the buzz and excitement and kind of a dark horse because nobody really knows anything about them. but what i can tell you is, is that they are expecting a win tonight against ecuador. all right, dan. yeah. barcelona. in cat. thank you very much. i has a quick reminder off the top story. we're following for you at this hour of today's
