to have mob watches, hockey, gifts, maria pools, more backwoods montrose, it is against civilians. my children drunk pictures with a house where they are, be laughed once once lived. imagine war crimes, more crimes against humanity. and we would have stand idle by i don't want to imagine such a world. i don't want to be responsible for such a world. i think most of us don't want to be responsible for such a world. therefore, i would like to underline with secretary lincoln set. if ukraine stops defending itself, ukraine nth. if we would stop standing, the side of ukraine. ukraine would end. the russian representative asked just

a couple of minutes ago. he and his counsel. why would be think that ukraine would end? well, because one year go, you president just told us that he would like to demilitarize you crave. and we saw for $365.00 nights and days. but that meant that your tangs didn't bring water. that your plane didn't drop baby nutrition, but you tanks and planes only brought night and day destruction and death of thousands of fathers and mothers and children. and yes, it brought also death and destruction around the world. not directly by tangs and bumps, but by the food crisis. and yes, you,

every body on earth can deceive yourself, but you cannot deceive the world. although the us who sincerely and honestly believe in a peace that means peace. a peace based on the charter of our united nation must show their true colors now and stand by the peace plan by the general assembly. president putin is speculating that at some point our clear stands against this war will weaken. he is speculating that by staying the cause, this war, this war for regression will be rewarded. for war that is all to causing great suffering to his own people. some 200000 russians have already been killed or wounded. hundreds of thousands of russians have left their country because they don't want to be part of this war. russian children going to schools and germany,

and i'm very happy about this. more than $1000.00 international companies have pulled out of russia, taking with them a crucial part of russians, prosperity, and intelligence. this war is not the world's war. this war is not the war of the russian people. this war is put in swarm. the russian president is risking the future of his own country, of his own soldiers, his own children. that's why a just peace, a peace plan presented yesterday by the 141 states at the general assembly is also in the interest of the people of russia. when i look around this table, i'm under no illusion. we will not convince the russian representative to day is not even listening. but what we can do is that this council will not

turn a blind eye to boucher hock if maria pool and buttonwood, to the people, and the children of ukraine. what we can do is stand up for a world where peace means peace. thank you. i think your excellency was verbal for her statement. i googled floor is excellent. seems to of the girls rangers minister and that was germany's foreign minister. and alina burbock, addressing the f u. n. a speaking, making a strong call for unit c, against what she called persons war, and a strong call for support for the peace plan, which was voted on yesterday by the and the u. n. and joining me here to discuss what we just heard from germany's foreign minister as dw senior

political analyst melinda crane. and we're joined from new york by d w's innes pool. and in s, a. give me your 1st impressions of what we just heard from anna lena. bear about clear what she said in the tone that she struck was very strong. it was very personal and very dedicated to the case of the un. you know, it was interesting to watch her how she listened to the speeches of, of the russian speaker and the chinese speaker, and she referred directly and indirectly in her speech to both of them by saying no, we are not adding fuel to the fire. if he help ukrainians, and i know it is not that we that we trust pu team that he would not overtake ukraine if you grade wouldn't have enough weapons to defend itself.

it was also a clear, a message to the russian people. she said, it's not the war of the russian people. it's putting swore so she is kind of also indirectly reaching out to the average russian by saying it is put in and it is not your fault. thank you. and it's melinda. she also talked about the, the limits of the un security council didn't she, which is of the salary clinton update right now. absolutely. in fact, this is her 2nd speech within 24 hours. she also spoke yesterday in the general assembly debate. and arguably that debate was more important than this one, although this is the central organ of the united nations that is dedicated to enforcing peace and security. and this body can actually issue resolutions that have binding force that are, for example, order acre country to desist from aggression. but it won't do so because russia has

a veto in this body and they are for, prevents it essentially from acting. so is there any point in having this debate? there is for 2 reasons. one is, it's important for countries to hear different perspectives. and even if the russian representative wasn't listening right now, this is on the record. and that essentially is the bridge to the 2nd point. the security council cannot now enforce international norms international laws, but it can reinforce them by calling out violations by naming aggressors. we sometimes in the legal area refer to name and shame. and that essentially makes things visible and shows the rest of the world that countries, not all members of the security council, but a majority do insist that these norms be respected and that has a soft law power. it's not enough,

but it certainly isn't nothing. in his and i wanted to ask you, and during his speech earlier, the, the, the ukrainian of foreign minister and metro collab, i said that russia is counting on the world getting tired of, of supporting ukraine online about just just referred to that as well. how important it is to stamp together what's your sense is, is support waning? well, therefore, the old yesterday, or the general assembly was so important. and that $141.00 nations voted in favor of this resolution, which what would would, which was brought in a by ukraine is telling that there is still a large majority of the un members. it's $191.00 nations altogether. who is supporting ukraine by this definitely is

a fear here in new york and around the world. and therefore, as melinda just said, therefore, these meetings are so important because different nations are able to be heard. they don't have the feeling that it's only like the strong u. s. o, maybe some other rich european countries who are dominating the discourse. so, you know, during the last 2 hours or so, it was interesting to listen. listen to the representative of brazil who is in support of sending a weapons and ammunition to ukraine. but it was also stressing the fact that it is so important to come back to the table and talk with each other. so it's the different nuances which gets a space here and that makes this assembly that makes the u. n. such a crucial a really organization in times like this. and it's pull reporting from the u. n in

new york and dw senior political analyst melinda crane. thanks so much t though for that analysis and we are going to go to china now, which has of course tried to position itself as neutral and the war even though it maintains close ties with russia. making has unveiled a 12 point piece proposal. timed to coincide with this anniversary, body top, it was much anticipated and presented with fanfare on chinese tv. on the 12 point piece plan, the foreign ministry later released and english translation, calling for respecting a national sovereignty and a cease fire and peace talks. as soon as possible, so far, so good criticism from the west came fast and furious. china doesn't have much good ability because they have not been able to condemn the illegal invasion

of ukraine. and they also signed that just days before the invasion. an agreement between kristen, she impressed and put in and limitless partnership with the russia. indeed, the plan came just 2 days after china's senior most foreign affairs representative lang. he was in moscow meeting with russian president vladimir putin, a trip widely seen as shoring a paging relations with moscow on the ship. those optics combined with disappointment that the plan didn't break any new ground. i felt that there isn't a bit of a disappointment now because there's nothing new in the plan and it's, it's not concrete enough and it's something that is not very useful now to, to move into the right direction to china. didn't join the countries which support to crane it, you know,

in the un resolution. and at the same time presents itself as an honest broker between the config parties. so china position is still one that doesn't really support the ukraine who hotly incense with russia for its part. moscow is looking for new sources of weapons and according to the us, china is considering providing them beijing denies any intentions of arming it's ally. but if it does, it will be a big step away from the neutrality. it is so carefully cultivated so far. now, despite the war, russia is still playing a key role in high profile operations involving other countries. notably the international space station russian cosmonaut remain on board the croft and are working closely with american astronauts. ah,

virtually nothing has changed on a day to day level on the international space station. the crew still meets on weekends to eat together at unity. the u. s. liaison note it's a ritual that's been gradually cultivated because most of the time the crew members are separated into 2 different sections on the space station or the astronauts work primarily in the us segment. located at the front of the i ss in the direction of flight. the cosmonaut, meanwhile, are responsible for the russian segment behind them. the space station is built in such a way that everyone involved has to work together manner because of the division of labor. they depend on each other. researched is carried out in the 3 liberal trees in the us segment. masses giant, so le wings power the entire station, including the russian modules. in addition, nasa provides the data to keep the station on course,

as well as communications round the clock. russia provides and controls all the thrusters for the i assess. they come into play when the space station has the dodge space, debris and during course corrections. every day, the i assess fools bye up to a 100 meters. the station is then always brought back up to the right altitude, with proportion from the russian progress freighters. each crew trains the 2 years for their mission astronauts and cosmonaut off to meet again later as friends on the space station. before 28th or 20. in october, a russian member of the expedition 68 crew flew to the station on the u. s. dragon capsule, while nasa colleague took off in a rush and saw is more so called cross of a flight like this, a plan through 2024. it's

a sign of detente thing for now. ready we are that over to him, it working on extending the operation on the i assess, look, we don't know for how long yet it passed 2024. but until 2024. the work will continue nominally. and in accordance release international agreements, if the russians are developing their own station, but until it's ready, they want to work on the i assess so that they can maintain their capabilities in manned spaceflight. and in 2031, the i assess is scheduled to, ah.
