because these artists are called, the brain continuously adapts itself. and so we ask a few questions. we can control our thoughts, which makes us very tower, kind of like a superpower. questions about life, the universe were series 40 to the answer to almost everything. this week on d, w. mm. this is the dublin years asia coming up to date. the celtic u. s. retreat from afghanistan. blamed on donald trump. that's the conclusion of the cotton joe vibrant government nearly 2 years since a happ hasn't us withdrawn from a feminist on the politics aside. we look at how it's ordinary of guns being the price for that to treat. and 3 missions deepening cooperation to meet the threat

from north korea. from somebody drill talks, how south korea japan and the united states are joining forces to face a common enemy. ah, by british bandit, you're welcome to deed up the news asia, glad you could join us. we didn't get it right. that's how a u. s. government review has summed up the deadly and chaotic us withdrawal from afghanistan in 2021. job items administration is blaming the previous trump white house for striking a de la bound to pull out, but leaving no plan of how to actually do so. while trump has hit back calling the current bite. how's morons? a top security u. s. official admitted. there were a huge failures that intelligence of the end of america has longest wall. and clearly we didn't get things right here without scanning. how fast the taliban were

moving across the country. i don't think we fully anticipated the degree to which they were constructing the deals in the hinterlands that kind of felt like dominoes . we didn't anticipate how fast the afghan national security forces were going to fold. we're not going to fight for the country, particularly after we had, as i said, dedicated 20 years, trained and equipped them. i don't think we are fully appreciated. the degree of corruption that was in the office or ranks in the military. i could go on and on and on. and here's a recap of the pull out for me. i've got to sunday august 2021. as us forces withdrew up to 20 years in the country, the taliban rapidly seized control sweeping aside western train. i've gone forces. american and nato troops were forced into a hurried and desperate final evacuation with the taliban in charge. after the afghan government collapse, huge crowds attempted to flee from cobble airport. the us, another nation, scrambled to evacuate some 120000 people. in a matter of days,

i made the desperation a suicide bomb attack at the airport killed $170.00 guns, and over the dozen us soldiers. critics accused the u. s. government of ignoring warning signs of olive on take what was imminent and say more of the guns, vulnerable to retribution from the taliban should have been evacuated sooner since of a drop volleyball has moved too large to remove women from public life. the economy has collapsed and an entire population has been pushed into poverty of fact highlighted more than ever during the fasting month of ramadan, ramadan and afghanistan shove, he colon, his family perform morning prayer, shortly before sunrise. this year's month of fasting is especially difficult for him. his wife and their 2 sons, all they can afford is tea and stale bread. their situation has worsened since the taliban rose to power michigan was a little before the tale bomb. my business was flourishing. it was him of idle eye

and $700.00 to $800.00 danis each day. now it's rarely more than a $120.00, and there are no other jobs because i can only fall to buy stale bread with that kind of money he own over. my brother doesn't have a job at all, which is why i support him shall amended and give him some of the brand namely, but it's nothing else i can do, but keep working as a shame shina. ah, he looks for customers on the streets of cobble for more than 20 years. he was able to live from his earnings, but conditions have worse, and over the last year and a half, as most people here can no longer afford to have their shoes. polished. one of his only customers to day is mohammed, even if the 28 year old doesn't have much money himself, he does occasionally splurge over. well, do that, i don't, i sound like we've got a lot of problems in this country. people here live in difficult circumstances.

economic situation is very tense. oh, most people are poor and urgently need help with a viola. unfortunately, i can't support them because they're living conditions are really bad. i cleared a lot had up. so if he color charges 10, afghani is a pair. the equivalent of about $0.10 on the road. my father, i vent 100 of donnie since this morning we're getting much, there's no with the work to be hard core to vote, but got his compassionate. and he will help us all made a 11 day just because i wanna get him up there, made a little things didn't go so well today. just 10 customers means that it will be just stale bread for dinner again. as chef he class spends his entire day, his wages on rent. he pays 3000. afghani is a month for his tiny house. h gas coma. nobody has helped us so far. home on the very few people get support. we haven't received a thing like negative still sophie cala hopes that one day he will find

a job that will let him provide a better life for his family. ah. south korea, japan, the united states have called for a crackdown on north korea sources of funding for it. nuclear weapons program on voice from the 3 nations met and cyril on friday, calling for international support to enforce the ban on north korea, sending workers abroad and to curb the countries cyber hacking around the world. the written since from a north korean workers and money stolen through cyber crimes have been linked to funding for young gangs nuclear weapons program. but north korea's provocation escalating as have been seen into icbm launches dcea and its rhetoric regarding nuclear weapon. we strongly condemn these actions by north korea at saint paul's at great threat to the peace and security of the region and beyond. under such

circumstances, our 3 countries have significantly deepened our coordination. for example, this week i was free, country conductive tried out until somebody exercise in the east china sea. and this is what he's talking about. joint mc somebody is drilled conducted by the navy's of japan, south korea, and the united states. at the start of this week, the to day drills where the 2nd time in 6 months, the navy's of the 3 countries were conducting such an exercise. and it was also the 1st time in 7 years that the 3 countries conducted joint search and rescue training . as part of these drills are a little bit more context on this from did lose william young from our easter shapiro in type a. william, i'd like to start with these joint naval drills we saw earlier in the week beyond what the navy's were actually training for. what does the training this joint training actually represent?

i think the joint turning reflect the collective concern and a growing concerned, amman, south korea, japan and the united states about north korea's a growing frequency of their missile and weapons tests. and at the same time, the very, very clear that there has been an improvement in the technology. the north korea was able to develop over the last few years, especially for under water weapons. because these missiles that will, can be attached and launched by submarines are a lot harder for these 3 countries to detect. and so they require a lot more better coordination and also preparation. amanda, 3 navies in these 3 countries to be able to deal with the growing uncertainty of this growing at vans technology down north korea has apparently been able to develop over the last few years. john young has always railed against these types of exercises. is there any reason to believe it won't be provoked even further with

these 3 countries exercising together? i think if we look at the trajectory and the track record from north korea, especially the way that they respond to any kind of joint military exercises and drills between the us and its allies in the region. especially with north south korea. it's very clear that these kind of exercises are only likely to embolden and also force north korea to further toughen up their stance and also showcase their capability. so we, i think, should only expect this is only going to lead to another round of the missiles test . and also even the revelation of north korea's other mid military capabilities that have yet to be known by the outside world. in a way, is it an acknowledgment then that dialogue is not going to work with north korea and therefore enhanced security and military cooperation?

is perhaps the only way i think this seems to be the direction, the south korea, japan and the united states. the united states are going into especially under the new south korean per president. he has been taking a much tougher line and stands against north korea as attempts to try to intimidate south korea in japan. and also of course, the united states with the missile test and also weapons launches, because he believes that the only way to deter north korea from further developing its nuclear weapons. and also just testing its weapons is by coordinating and strengthening the cooperation and security alliance between south korea in its key allies. and in this case, it's obviously the united states and japan. it is also or ought to see japan and south korea working together at the security level so closely given their past historical differences. william. yes indeed, you know, for the last few decades,

especially even under the former south korean president of mu j in the bilateral relations between soul in tokyo had, in fact, even dipped to the lowest point in decades. but i think since the new president came to power, he has really identify and clarify, i think, highlight the threats coming from both piano and also the potential growing threat from bay jane in reality, to south korea security and highlight the importance of mending the relationship with tokyo and then forming a much closer security and also strategic ties with japan because this, you know, they are facing the same threats coming from north korea and china. and at the same time, it's becoming more and more important for them to have a working and even friendly relationship. so that the coordination and i think sharing resources intelligence will become much easier. and this is definitely in the interest of not only south korea and japan,

but also in the united states. because after all, we know that these are the 2 biggest allies for a washington in this part of the world. and the u. s. has struggle to try to bring these 2 countries together for many, many years. but now these 2 countries are pro, actively taking the efforts to try to mend the relationship on their own. and definitely washington is very glad to see this. and so they are putting in a lot of efforts to try to coordinate and also build a stronger lions between the 3 countries. remember the 30 seconds left, william. how do you see this alliance moving forward? i think under the current government, both in japan and saw it is only going into the direction of further strengthening ties because of the way that they've been dealing with threats, especially security challenges in the region. and they both highlight the importance of maintaining open and free in the pacific region. so i think this is the direction and the i think way that we're going to see as they move forward with

young old was a pleasure talking to thanks so much for bringing us this contact william young in type a thanks so much. thank you. and that does it for this week, or there is more from the region on our website, the w dot com, forward slash a sure i'm as ever you can follow us on facebook and twitter back again at the same time on monday we'll see you then bye tag a. this visual hotspots in germany, a d w channel 3 lean, we're in. mm hm

. with ah ah, a plunge and operating profits of 95 percent. that's what samsung is expecting 1st quarter earnings to show as memory chips sales for hammered by a global downturn. we'll have expert analysis on where global ship demand and production is headed. also the ship. india is looking to massively expand as green

energy generation, even as its economy is still heavily relied on coal. with here from our correspondence. what to make of the plan. hi, i'm chris cova. welcome to the program. sam. sorry, electronics is looking at it's worst quarterly earnings in almost 15 years. the south korean tech giant saying it expects profits in the past 3 months to have plunged by more than 95 percent to $455000000.00. samsung says, memory demand has dropped sharply due to the global economic downturn. chip prices have fallen by about 70 percent of the last 9 months of shoppers have been cutting back and purchases. amid rising inflation, the samsung groups most important subsidiary received some support through solid smartphone sales. i'm right now by june park, she's a political economist at schmidt future. she joins me from sol. what come to the w

june? now we'll know that inflation has been biting the economy, could have been better, but a drop and profit of 95 percent. that sounds brutal, operating profit to be exact, and the company has not yet released the net profit losses. so we'll have to look forward to the reporting that comes from something at an x at the end of the month . but, but then again, what you pointed out, operating profit i does, it's not the full picture yet, but what are we to make of that development? what sure is then some song, some songs main ah, the, the by solution area which, which are on memory chips. they performed a poorly during the sluggish demand and main, the impacted by the consumption lack of consumption from china,

and that the competitors as k. hi, next. and my con, they already decided from a late last year. so they're at the end of 3rd and 4th quarters of last year, both competitors decided to go about decreasing their production. so it's a time that samsung electronics, i started to, you know, shift gears a little bit more to fit the market trend. yeah, i was gonna ask, i mean, what does it mean now that, oh samsung says it wants to cut trip production in a quote, meaningful manner meaningful manner and that they cannot, ah, explicitly state how much they are going to cut given this is a very cut throat competitive industry, but at the same time that they are willing to shift the markets so that the dram prices and nan flash prices could go up. let's try to look at the bigger picture here. i mean, not long ago, semiconductors were in high demand,

accompanies actually have to scale back production because the central ships were missing. what does the picture look like today? base, you're thinking about different kinds of chance. we still have shortages in different parts of the industry. so say for instance, auto chips or r a i chips and there are in different kinds of kinds of demand thresholds. so memory chips in this regard is a little bit of a problematic picture here because there is too much of supply and there are stocks there are accumulating in the, in the warehouses. so it's about time that sounds now that tronics a ship's gears. and that's the right decision, jim park, political economist, ach midfield, just thank you for your thoughts. about some of the other global business stories making news. the russia rubel has hit the lowest level against the

euro and the us dollars since april 2022 russians. now have to pay $90.00 roubles to get one euro. analysts say wealthy russians, converting roubles is partially behind russia worn ukraine and west. her sanctions have hit from the coffers. russia federal budget deficit reached almost $29000000000.00. the 1st quarter finance minister said energy revenue fell by almost 50 percent, while the government increased its spending on military production. while prices have fallen by a 5th compared to a year ago, says the united nations prices had soar to a record high after russia invaded agricultural power. how's ukraine their down? partially due to a deal that allows ukraine to export grain to a safe corridor in the black sea. it is to india. now the countries the world's 3rd largest green house gas and that are after

china and the united states. but it's looking changed that by increasing efforts to boost its non fossil capacity, namely solar and wind energy, as well as nuclear and hydro and bio power. it wants to reach 500 gigawatt capacity by 2030. now this would raise its share of non fossil energy from the current just under 43 percent, up to 50 percent coal at the moment, accounts for over half of in the us power generation capacity hydropower accounts for 13 percent, wind and solar together make up 25 percent and to help to reach the goal and yes, government is issuing tenders and hopes will encourage the installation of renewable energy sources. earlier i spoke to our correspondent and deli ricardo gay, and i asked him how india wants to split up this plan capacity among the different ways of generating green energy. will of chris, what be no so far?

is that at least 10 gigawatts of this is going to be wind power capacity per year. the rest of it could be solar or a solar wind hybrid kind of model. what is significant is that this will mark a break from the past. india has so far, never been able to bid out more than 15 gigawatts per year. so taking that up to 50 per year, that's a big jump. now, india missed its target to install honored and $75.00 gigawatts in renewable energy capacity by this year. why should the country be more successful in trying to reach the current goal? what you know, chris india is pretty conscious of the fact that it is known as the was 3rd largest emitter of greenhouse gases. and it wants to reach net pseudo by 2017 has already placed that it has already promised her that target. but the problem is that the

countries in a tight spot because of its ever growing power demand 1400000000 people now leaving the pandemic behind so of, and at least in the northern parts of the country. there are long summer heat waves and colder than expected winters. so all of this is perpetuating the problem and are either of pushing the power demand every year up. so hold to keep up with this and to prevent power cuts. that's the challenge at caro. all of this comes as india, as our power output in order to satisfy this, this hunger for energy is growing at its fastest pace in more than 3 decades. and it's mainly fueled by coal. were right, chris, that unfortunately is the sad part call is still the biggest part of an energy mix . currently, it is believed to be more than 70 percent. and so in the herb is conscious of the fact that there's a heavy responsibility on her shoulders to say good bye to call eventually and to bring down its emissions. the silver lining, however,

is that renewal power is also growing according to one report. the renewable energy capacity excluding big hydro and nuclear power right now exceeds 122 gig or what? so the good bye to call is a, is a sort of a long term process. but right now that does remain a challenge. chris, tara gargarian, deli charo, as always, thank you. so the indian government wants to massively support the extension of solar power. but even on a small scale, there are hurdles. take a look. share ronnie is a financial consultant who now works from home, which means his electricity use has fight. he tried to set up solar panels on his roof to gnawed his goblin footprint, but ran into a problem. living in the city like mom by right. you really understand that little

stop is there, go community spirit. so shared spheres, it's not on late. the other thirty's, where you have your own hose, your own rooftop. there you can, you know, use or control, ah, saw gating access to little thought, who set up a lot by mill wounds that electricity because i didn't get those here diesel openly gone weekly, owned by only me. this is one big problem. several renters and homeowners in crowded cities like mom, by our facing. and it accounts for a large gap between the countries. ambition for rooftop solar generation and the reality on the ground. india stock. it was to produce at on 40 gigawatts of energy from blue stop sooner. generation by 2023. so far, only 8 gigawatts have been generated. other factors holding it back out, a lack of standardization in solar policies and practical financial support for solar installations. ah, but there are now

a few startups in india working to reach these gaps like betty, whose job that has raised private investment to install low cost solar panels for residential communities. so far they have set up solar panels for a 100 residential complexes in one bite, bonia nashik, their modern and was a long term leasing contract and financial support. eventually, the communities will own the panels. so with us, the died of his fixed of, of the does that does one benefit. second, it is immediately i, i, i busy though it is 50 percent off your cost and $3.00, it is free of and when you set it up at the end of 15 years, the plan is transferred to the consumer free of cost. dad, working with a bank loan based technologies, doctor called sunday grades, also attempting to make solar energy more accessible and affordable by going digital. is it possible for us to basically be couple of the board, the problems of a having to go? so wanting to go solar on one fed and having

a physical installation doesn't necessarily have to happen on your own roof calls. it sounds norville, but it's similar to what graduate trade scheme, how it works is cindy agreed. sedans grids belonging to the residential owner project from betty, which are the units of energy produced here, armagh, as toner credits, and can then be traded on their platform. customers can invest in the panels, monthly and reserve units off. so low credit. and this platform was exactly what shavani was looking for. and here's a look at our top story. samsung electronics is looking at its worst quarterly earnings in almost 15 years, saying it expects operating profit stuff lunged by more than 90 of her present future sluggish global demand for memory chips. and that wraps up our show on per se cobra and berlin, thanks for watching. enjoy your weekend. ah
