a russia's alleged war crimes in ukraine. china hasn't condemned russia's full scale invasion with his forces struggling to make gains. mister putin hopes to signal that he has a powerful ally. russia's front line in ukraine has advanced, retreated, and inched forward since it's invasion a year ago. but one thing has stayed constant. european hopes that russia's biggest ally could push it to end the destruction for our beaker. she ship kit that is important for us that china does not choose russia side or little . we expect china to fully use its influence on russia, your, to bring russia to respect international law would want to let you know. as i said, to president, she, that it's important for china to exert its influence on russia. china has called for peace negotiations of last month. it released a 12 point piece plane for the ukraine conflict that was widely condemned by the
2:03 pm
west who for not making specific demands on russia. you could, indeed, beijing looks reluctant to clip russia's wings before russia invaded ukraine. both president, g and fulton declared a no limits partnership between their country. they've met in person since then and president she state visit to russia is a strong signal to the west way. and because m putin didn't win the war quickly, not to rethink its relationship while keeping this very strong alliance intact. so china's m main focus is to make sure that it continues to trade heavily with the west, while also maintaining its close friendship with, with russia. but china may be offering russia material support in the war. us based security researchers say the chinese companies are exporting equipment to sanctioned russian defense firms. and the u. s. has warned that china may soon
2:04 pm
provide lethal support to russia. there is no evidence of that happening on a wide scale yet. china has taken on and increasingly combat of posture towards the u. s. hope i'm believe that as moscow's troops struggle on in ukraine, china is working towards it's long term goal of expanding its influence on the global stage of felina, chuck, our over founded the geo political consulting firm face. i asked her, what president putin, i'm g expect from this meeting. well 1st her, it is a critical moment to, of course, of, for the chinese leader to pay a visit to moscow after a cementing his position in the highest excellence of power in china. in obviously, 1st and foremost, it's about that bilateral relationship between these 2 countries, which i think her is a clear manifestation of her, of, of
2:05 pm
a modus vivendi of coordination in various strategic domain. so from commodities and energies, agriculture to economy, traits, space, defense, and technological of corporation. so in a sense, we will hear a lot about her, you know, the new plans of how to booster bilateral relationships are when, which are specific curse for years. and what i am mostly concerned with is still defense. technological space will come to a dead defense in a moment because what in what you've outlined, there is a relationship that they want to deepen. that goes, this goes well beyond ukraine. absolutely. and this has been in the making over the last 10 years at least term. ah wait at least to what excision being already wrote in his sir. ah, you know, ah, paper which is dedicated to
2:06 pm
a russia i hate of his visit. ah, that a mean? this is the absolutely clear plan of china to boost this relationship. oh, and it is obviously also that the domain to political goal is to create and let's say onto western narrative for that me sir. a model in the world that works sir, based on of well, let's say the interests and the visions of china and russia starting from international regional organizations are 2 relations with 2. it's for our partners in the world. bright. so defense though, we can get away from it or washington has worn beijing against providing military aid to russia. you think a procedure is likely to take that risk and go over i think that some that if china decides to provide military 8 to russia in an overt
2:07 pm
manner, this war will turn into a proxy war between as united states and china. and we will see the manifestation of a cold war, 2.0 scenario in which russia practically will looser its global power status. so what i argue, he said china will decide to do it in a more, let's say, a hidden way, via various channels sir. and to with the support of the countries. so ah, a chinese, already the main lifeline for russia. but in fact, the russian president would have never started the full scale war against ukraine if he had not relied on the comprehensive support from china lives. right. that's interesting, you know, the way you see this conflict, you think overt military backing from china for russia diminishes. russia's do political, i'm position. absolutely. and i argued that in fact,
2:08 pm
a russia sided we, china has chosen to cite of china already prior to taking the decision on making a move on ukraine. in fact, russia realizes that is no longer the systemic player in global jury politics. but india, at the same time, of course, moscow sought to improve its position ink in this newly emerging systemic conflict between chinese new united states. by becoming a wild card in the bilaterally relationship between washington and beijing. ah, how? by practically subjugating the 2nd largest european country, destroying the european security order and term controlling the flows of goods and services from asia to europe. as we know that china is still very much interested in keeping to trade with her europe. thank you. has fascinating. i from, you know, chuck rover from face. thank you very much. now to a camera and protests have gripped the capitol. nairobi with demonstrates as to
2:09 pm
taking to the streets of the country's cost of living crisis, or canyon police, or $5.00 to gas and to wrestle several senior opposition. politicians, a 100 people protested against president william a router has been unable to bring down living costs, taking power in september, surging prices for basics and punishing drought of like millions, hungry opposition leader rather or dingo has called for the demonstrations to continue. despite the government crackdown protesters a straight to the canyon capital bank and join our correspond, felix, that marina. welcome a felix, what's going on there now? so basically right now, reloading guy and i and number of his supporters will come out in large numbers, especially for the better part of the afternoon. they asked making their way from our one of the areas are just outside nairobi to watch this central business
2:10 pm
district. however, police have already barricaded some of the roads and tear gas canisters are still being logged out, a port out, and they're running battles between the police and the support as, as police ensure that their support as don't get to get into the central business district, just earlier on some of the support as a, just outside their central business district. in the, as i sent a trade centers, some of the shops are broken into and some of their businesses were actually looted . so the police are very much avoiding that this particular group of support as get into the central business district. because again, now that destruction will be much more and huge as compared to the areas within just outside the central business district. so right now we're a loading guy and his supporters are just moving out. what is happening is kind of a hide and seek game where air ala pops up to address the masses. then the police
2:11 pm
lupsi, i got a law back, they also discharged what are from their what are can, is does. and then now as they move to another place, so they keep doing that from immediately or a lot just popped up. and that has been the case in the difference to provide that he has had addressing his people and all these protest just about the cost of living. no, they are not about the cost of living. and just that just about the cost of living rather air, a loading a has actually this afternoon also repeated that some of the things they're pushing for our electron just is he seeing that their electoral commission bundled him out of a, an election that he had won and so he, once the government to stop a recruitment process that has begun, re loading is also saying that, aside from the electoral justice, they once assembled, their campaign promises that was done that were made by their president router's
2:12 pm
government to be fulfilled. although it's just about 7 months since presidential or got into office by they are saying some of their agenda promises like reducing their cost of food and reducing their cost of fuel have not been met. and so they're seeing those campaign promises must be met immediately. but ronna dunker has lost 5 presidential elections and chatham. c election results in 27 t a protest. her supporters claimed then ended with the death of dozens. are we looking at a similar likely scenario this time? well, as reports are coming in from the police so far is that a 3 people might have actually lost their lives aaliyah to day and day or position. and some of their opposition empties. also alluded to the same fight, seeing that 2 people was killed in one of a theory has just outside, no, robi kebraw. and another one was also shot at by police. but we're waiting for the
2:13 pm
final report at the end of their day because they've been protest in some of their major towns in kenya, protestantism, protest in other areas. and so we're just waiting to see how many more people would have probably lost their lives or gotten badly injured. but what we know is that they've been a number of arrests that have taken place. we'll have a central business district, some of their political leaders, the members of lemons have also been arrested. and we don't know what else will be taking place before the end since the protest and look like the get to have momentum as time goes on. so we're just waiting to see what else could happen before the end. thank you for felix or felix marina. in nairobi. look at the most doors making headlines around the world. mass protests of grip south africa following calls were left wing party for a natural shockmount. countries, economic freedom fighters,
2:14 pm
our party said demanding the resignation of president phil. i'm a poser, what they say? economic mismanagement island spot by protested 2021. that's more than $350.00 death. the new russians talk investigative agencies opened a criminal case against the international criminal court, prosecutors to issued a warrant for the rest of president, uprooted for war crimes. the agency uses the i. c. c, a violating russian law, including knowingly accusing an innocent person of a crime. residence in the australian town of men and demanding authorities take immediate action after hundreds of thousands of dead fish were found floating in the nearby darling river. though levels of oxygen are being blamed for the mass dial. switzerland's biggest bang u b. s has reached a deal to take over its embattled rival, credit suisse. takeover was arranged quickly over the weekend. i made fears that the banking crisis could destabilize the global financial system,
2:15 pm
switzerland as preparing emergency measures to fast track approval, and u. b. s will receive liquidity assistance from the swiss state. the turmoil was on least by the collapse of to you ass banks. the humbling end of the banking icon, the swiss government hastily forced through the takeover of credit suisse by rival u. v. s. at well below market value. switzerland is fearful that a failure to protect depositors could lead to a global banking crisis. the bankruptcy of a global systematically important bank would have cost irreparable economic term oil in switzerland and throughout the world. the federal council is convinced that u b. s. takeover of credit suisse has laid the foundations for greater stability, both in switzerland and internationally. switzerland 2nd largest bank had been in
2:16 pm
trouble for some time, suffering scandalous, public legal battles and mounting losses. these longstanding vulnerabilities were brought to the surface by the collapse of silicon valley bank and signature bank in the u. s. highlighting just high panicked investors are there is hope that the financial problems were unique to credit suisse and could therefore be contained in this deal. but experts warn this may not be the case once a large and highly connected institution, such as this runs into trouble that there is always a risk of contagion. and it may be a good idea for regulators and several bankers to try to get ahead of the problem. central banks across the globe, i faced with a potential crisis of confidence in the stability of a financial system as investors and depositors a like fear,
2:17 pm
a looming credit crunch. so citizens biggest bank tag her of the country, 2nd biggest. i asked her, frederick hyman, from the bitter leibnitz center for european economic research in mannheim, a big deal. this is just quite a substantial deal. i mean, those things belong to the 30 globally, are important banks that are deemed to be offered systemic relevance. so one of the big ones that of the balance sheet of one trillion, it's taking over credits with a balance sheet of about half the size. so together it's gonna be one very substantive logically. and i think it's a, it's meant to be a strong sign of building trust. now there was authority's not a way to start license situation in a critical ok. so we have 2 banks in the u. s. which go down and
2:18 pm
cause this problem in switzerland. central banks now are scrambling to com. fear that this could ripple around the world. is that risk now contained no, it's not her pity contained her. but i think her, what you really notice is that authorities have to learn from the great financial crisis in 2008, 2009. so they are acting much faster than they did in the past. they acting strongly and sending out signs of trust building and one should also, one should also recognize that fundamentals are much stronger today than they were in 2009. a higher in the bangs regulation is stronger than tighter. it was disappointing that to the con valley bank a collapse and this was a big disappointment because everybody expected with too much regulation so tight
2:19 pm
and not we're to learn whether that pretty traditional mistakes in the balance sheets. it was a big disappointment that that's why and now people are so i know, and i can trust in looking at we've been asking whether it's business model really viable and that's a problem, right? so that's a little bit scary because you said that they should have learned but didn't, and still made fundamental mistake so. so my biggest question is my math is not in a swiss bank, is not an a u. s. bank, it's in a bank here in money. he's my money. likely to be safe now. yes sir. i mean the banks are kind of like, drew me. they are under stress from the increase in interest rate, but they also benefit from it because a, again, dan, bernie, money from the normal business, taking in money in the account and lending it out. and this has become profitable
2:20 pm
again because of that increase in interest with the increase in the interest rate is across the blessing. i think for many banks the net effect is quite positive. so that's why i'm not too pessimistic. the big issue with the european real estate, so as long as the real estate market stays are stable, i'm quite confident that we will not see a big bank in crisis in europe. ok, that's a good note to leave. so thank you so much for talking us through that, the frederick hyman. i'm the lead minutes center for european economic research. thank you. well, thanks. a hundreds of the world leading scientists have collaborated on what same as a critical update on the state of the environment. the intergovernmental panel on climate change was analyzed the results of research into global warming and carbon levels. since the paris climate accord was graded 2015, and they board, the data indicates that we need to act now before it's too late. millions of people
2:21 pm
worldwide are already feeling the effect of the climate crisis. extreme weather storms, drought floods melting arctic ice and rising sea levels just a few of the consequences. in 2015, the global community agreed to attempt to limit global warming ideally to 1.5 degrees by the end of this century. so far, no country is scheduled to meet that target. today's release by the intergovernmental panel on climate change is a summary of 6 major reports from recent views. it's the most detailed analysis of worldwide climate science and the effects of climate change on humans and all life on land and sea. the k messages a clear climate change can only be stopped with a radical energy transition and action needs to be taken to adapt to effects of climate change already being felt today. this would save lives and be more affordable than the costs of uncontrolled climate change on business and society.
2:22 pm
but the window of opportunity to achieve this is closing fast. so say the climate scientists. by 2030, the world would have to cut its emissions from burning coal oil and gas by half or endure global warming of around 3 degrees celsius. the likely resulting storms, droughts and floods would be devastating to prevent these catastrophes. foster bolder and more transformative climate policies and needed louisa. osborne from d. w. environments has been working us through that new you. i'm not climate to report and john just now are welcome, louise. so what's image that we didn't already know? there isn't actually much in it that we don't know already are, but this acts as a final warning to say that we have to take action. now if we want to make sure that we get lower than this, a limit of 1.5 degrees centigrade, that was agreed by the global community. so this report brings together all of the
2:23 pm
information that has been put out there over the last or a half decade or, or a little bit more to give as clear scientific basis for governments to make policy . that is actually going to lead to the kind of action that is needed. if we are to avoid the impacts of 3 degrees or more and what sort of action is needed. well, there needs to be swift and huge radical transformation. and the way that we do things we need to cut fossil fuels dramatically. we need to cut carbon dioxide emissions by half by 2030. the problem is that those missions are still rising at the moment. so we need to make sure that they peak within the next couple of years at the absolute latest. there needs to be a quick move to renewable energy. and the good news there is that renewable energy has never been cheaper. so, you know, it's really the time for that. there's also the, the report talks about looking at carbon capture and storage, whether that's planting trees or whether that is looking at technology,
2:24 pm
which is not quite advanced enough yet, but moving in that direction. a massive decomposition of industry, generally. she all of that sounds like a lot of work. all of it sounds like stuff that we already knew and all that makes me wonder will, is it now really, honestly just between us too late. the report says specifically that it's not too late, we still can meet that 1.5 degree limit. this is just like that, that the final warning for that i, there has already been a 1 point, one degree rise. and that is because of the human impact that we are still pumping a carbon emissions into the atmosphere that needs to change with direct action. but it's still possible, but there is no indication that any government is taking the sorts of radical action. but this report says, is needed. we will just keep tiptoeing towards the end of the cliff until suddenly
2:25 pm
we go, oh, why didn't nobody tell us? i mean, i think scientists are still trying to remain optimistic that we can make these changes and that's why this report has been put together because it gives governments the scientific basis they need to move forwards and to have the, the scientific reasoning for that. there is the global climate from it that will be taking place at the end of the year. and they will be looking at the kinds of measures that governments have promised to see whether they can up those promises and ambitions so that we can move forward with them. thank you for that to lose louis osborne d. w. well, here's some good news. after all, at war for finland, at least it's been declared, the world's happiest country for the 6th year in a row. the world happiness report examines the happiness and gap between the top and bottom half of country's population and says people are happier in countries where that difference is smaller,
