earlier i asked journalists to our shawnasee adam, who was following the development in sudan from nairobi to update us on the progress of those evacuations. we'll see now many countries, so be back reading their diplomats, others have been upgrading their citizens at the, the julian's, the same for supporting some of this student from nigeria who are trapped for to and guaranteeing them safe passage droids for sedan. we also so the italian they dalliance have worked with their diplomats and they're working on evacuating. did tell us if this were still trapped in for 2000? have a nice have left the capital for tune, fleeing to words, does your state other words like now state and they made it across the border to

out on 3 plains, the 1st of which i see right there, touch down here in berlin earlier today. oh, i spoke with german lawmaker bores me onto the ich spokesperson on human rights and humanitarian aid for the greens. the greens are part of germany's governing coalition. at the moment he told me who the evacuation is bringing to safety. it's not only germany, it's all you're in and also transit latin canadian and us citizens that we have brought to security. and of course, we are looking into this situation more thoroughly, to gain security for the country recalled to opening up parties to, to stay with the ceasefire and to lead the weapons. what our it in the walk our lives, have a look now. some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world. 5 people were wounded when a man drove his car into a crowd on

a street in jerusalem. police shot and killed the driver. they say that the driver came from a palestinian neighbourhood in east jerusalem. 3 far right. protesters were arrested in spain after clashes with police of this after the re burial in madrid of the founder of the countries fascist for longer movement. jose antonio, primo day of the vera's remains, were exude from the huge walls, a liam complex, where dictator, francisco franco, was also one spear, a russian court has denied bill for a suspect in a bombing that killed a pro war military blogger. diarrhea proposal is accused of presenting of laughlin petoskey with a statuette that exploded, killing him and injuring 50 other people in st. petersburg earlier this month. now, according to russian media trip over says that she did not know what was inside the statuette that she was only delivering of the talk diplomat of the european union

says that he is hopeful of finalizing a deal to buy badly needed munitions for ukraine at a summit to day of foreign ministers meeting in luxembourg. yoseph burrell said that the situation in ukraine is one of extreme urgency. you leaders have agreed on a deal last month to purchase ammo for keys, but that deal has been stalled due to disagreements with in europe. e u ministers are debating a 1000000000 euro joint procurement to boost ukraine's ammunition supplies. but it's not an easy deal to make. there's disagreement over how much of the business related to the purchase of arms will stay strictly within the e u. i'm sure that in the following day we will reach y, lulu, for this legal agreement. don't believe that we are just sitting and waiting. the

whole work is, is going on the whole work. as i often was the legal lou ridge there, water, practical work where we finish. the joint procurement plan is part of a multi track. you deal to get 1000000 artillery shells and missiles to cream within the next here. track one of the plan is to reimburse 1000000000 euros to e u. countries for sending munitions to ukraine from their existing stock track to involves increasing the production of ammunition to match ukraine's needs. many of you, governments agree to buy the munitions from firms within the block, as well as from none e. u. member norway. but fans with a substantial arms industry of its own has insisted production should take place only within the european union ukraine. and it stand just allies insist, the decision should not be delayed by bureaucratic disputes. i understand those who

want to see europe in military industry flourishing. indeed we need that. but if we delay, currently, ukrainians might not push as far and as successfully as they could with our assistance. therefore, speed is the main factor, but we should be looking for now. for ukraine, any delaying the decision of weapons delivery means less chance of recapturing occupied territory and more of its soldiers losing their lives on the front lines. the w is rosie ver charge. she's at that meeting election bergen, we after will the european union be able to fully meet ukraine's ammunition needs moving full oh ukraine will keep pushing. i think that is one thing that's clear, the ukrainian minister joined these talks virtually. and i think from, based on what i've heard from people in the room, it was really more what you might describe of as a virtual dressing don't. i'm told to use harsh language to try and convince these e u members. no, i think the debate will continue over the next coming days among ambassadors at

a more technical level. and certainly the european union's foreign affairs, too few except barrels told us in a press conference he expects some sorts of agreements in the coming days. and the often like the stress that it's not just when it comes to ammunition or military 8 that it's supporting ukraine, but also, and other tracks, for example, welcoming millions of ukrainian refugees into the european union. and of course, the ukraine also wants one day to have a seat at this very table to one day joined the european union. as you says, it's important key of on that front as well when it comes to reforms. but ukraine, i think you can rest assured will keep pushing for this. keep pushing for ammunition because of course what keith says is, this is really a matter of life or death. that was rosy butcher, the reporting from luxembourg, where you cranes our lives. ab slammed russia for cheering, a un security council meeting to day that was called to discuss, protecting the you in charge of the charter, which was violated by russia when it invaded ukraine. russia's foreign minister

surgery leverett says that the world is reaching a dangerous threshold. but he is blamed the west 4th, if state of affairs for today's meeting. lab rav said that the un is facing a quote profound crisis. he blamed the u. s. and he made accusations of economic aggression by washer to was amy distinguished colleagues, we have reached the threshold, may be more dangerous, that in the cold war, worsened by the loss of and faith and multilateralism. as the financial and economic aggression of the west destroys the benefits of globalization. when the u . s. in its allies, abandoned diplomacy and demand relations be clarified on the battlefield. all this in the halls of the united nations created to prevent the horrors of war when they lifted for a few. noodles roughly, will a correspondent army in s if he followed the russian foreign minister speech today at the un. and i asked him, what audience was sergey laugh, rob addressing with his words today. that's

a really good question because it certainly wasn't the united states and it wasn't ukraine. he was critical of united states global power. and it seems that he was addressing those countries around the world that are critical of the u. s. is use of its status as a super power to quote unquote force it's western style democracy in all areas of the world. now, there is brazil, which is sitting as of rotating member of the security council, which has recently made headlines for refusing to support ukraine with weapons arguing instead for a negotiated piece. and i believe that russia really hopes to a rat to have bring in these countries that are kind of sitting on the fence between us and russian power and create some kind of an alliance in that regard. leverage attempt here failed to day. brazil did use the opportunity to criticize us power and call from multilateralism on a global stage. but the brazilian representative also condemned of russia's

invasion of ukraine, pointing out and suggesting that it was more of a violation of the un charter than any kind of a of protocol violations with respect to negotiation. so most countries really sat at the table, listen to laugh rav and then after his speech, said, well, a lover of sir russia is the one that broke the un charter by invading ukraine. yeah, i mean, i'm just, i was going to ask, you mean, what type of blow back did a leverage get from ukraine's western allies after this speech? it was surprisingly civil. the response within the un security council meeting today, this opened debate. you had many countries thinking russia for a presiding over the conference. nobody walked out and protest, as some people had hoped, as ukraine had some alluded to as

a possible measure to show russia that it's not welcome at the table any more. and everybody sat there and they listened to the debate and they participated in it because multilateralism is a founding principal of the u. n. m. now what at that could show, however, is that is itself a rebuke of russia's attempt to kind of hijack this debate here and claim. multilateralism has its own principal here by participating in this bait. they showed russia that we following the principles of the un, and that doesn't change our opinion that the invasion of ukraine has a legal he'd abuse. i mean, as if with the latest to night from un headquarters in new york. i mean, thank you. it's not a new report shows that world wide military spending jumped almost 4 percent last year. that is a new record. now that's according to the stock home international peace institute known as c pre overall world military spending came to $2.00 trillion dollars last year. led by the united states, china and russia,

the biggest john came here in europe, which spent 13 percent more than the year before. and that was led by russia and ukraine. russia's neighbor, finland increased its own spending by 36 percent. many other countries, including germany, popped up there, spending on equipment in personnel following russians. invasion of ukraine spinning was also bumped by rising inflation in many of the world's biggest military powder powers. all right, i'm gonna bring in now the rinse, zoe's got on. so does so your research assisted with the c free military expenditure and arms production program. he joins me tonight from stock home. it's good to have you with us. i mean, these are big numbers. are 2 trillion euros worldwide and military expenditures on that. let's crunch these numbers. how much of this spending went into? i guess the hardware weapons tanks, fighter jets. we do not have exact breakdown,

but technically countries will never spend a 3rd of them on weapons. so we can say that's mostly the award of so yes, a 3rd a goes into weapons and we know that europe saw about a 13 percent rise in military spending. i mean is, is that an example of europe catching up after many years that so it's military budgets shrinking? so yes, when we say europe, we include also russia and ukraine. western central europe has seen an increase, but the much lower one. and we can see how in the center and west are, you are the great media expenditure is high to the level of the cold war. so yes, this trend starting 1014, when russia 1st invented ukraine. and since then, we've seen a loosing that didn't take to and kept increasing. and lorenzo, if we take out rushes war in ukraine,

what other drivers do we see behind this massive spending increase? so yeah, inflation is definitely one of the dumping excess. so we see our country spending more, but inflation is dumping defects, so some increases became decreases. but technically, across the war, digital political situation is what is driving these increases. so we've seen how a congress in asia, such as japan, south korea, india increased, at least in normal terms. the fact that the official broke it down doesn't mean they do not put money in it. yeah, that's a good point to meet. it's about how much you can get for the money that you're spending it. if you look at the significant spending heights that we've seen in asia, for example, china, india, japan, does this increase in spending, in your opinion? does it signal a looming military conflict in the region?

but i'm not sure i can comment on that, but it's definitely my, my it's threat perception was seen how japan moved away from his one percent policy of g b and he's saying to increase that. so yes, that definitely does increase and then shows the weather that is going to convert into concrete remains to be seen. lorenzo's got an auto with c pre loser. we appreciate your time and your insights tonight. thank you. thanks wondering where european leaders meeting at this year's north of c summit in belgium have signed off on a plan to wrap up the production of wind power. they're aiming to boost the current capacity of offshore wind farms. 8 fold by the year 2050. they say they want to turn the north sea into the greenest power plant in the world. this is all part of the plan to reduce carbon emissions and to reduce dependence on russian gas and oil . the north sea lapping at belgian sands nations including

norway, the netherlands, germany, denmark and the u. k. are all betting on this shallow arm of the atlantic to help sure up their energy future. not means ramping up the use of wind turbines, and better connecting these countries energy supply sights. it wouldn't hurt our money. we wanted to show the success of the surgeon renewable energy, including offshore power. we flew out to the north sea to officially inaugurated, and we will follow that i'd savannah. at last year, summit leaders laid out an ambitious plan to create the world's largest green power plant. in the north sea, in less than 30 years. this time they'll also look at how to keep energy operations and under see data cables safe after cases of suspected sabotage against the nord stream gas pipelines and reports that russian spy ships are mapping infrastructure in western european waters. the last month taught us how important it is to protect

our critical infrastructure. it is, 1st of all about having a mutual awareness about what the threats are. a common analysis about the strength and the weaknesses, and then to develop di, together a different solution for better protection. environmental campaigners argue that boosting and safeguarding power sources must be balanced with protecting marine life. so that efforts to go green, don't damage these precious blue resources. but he got me brussels bureau chief alexander phenomena she told us earlier. if this wind energy initiative is it can truly transform your power grid. well, there is a huge potential here, according to assets, no doubt about that, that claire, when it comes to offshore wind power in the nurse, see we're, this is one of the windiest places on earth. however, when we look at to the events today, my impression was that it was

a kind of p r event with have self government and states from a 9 european nations trying to out do each other, stressing how important it is to reach their goals and how they want to work together to reach them. and those goals are really ambitious, experts say, and some of them doubt whether they can be reach within a few years as plans. and we have to say that announcements like that on a smaller scale has been made in the past last year for instance. but the european union was not able to reach their goals, or they were able only to reach them half way through. so it remains to be seen whether at this he the huge amounts of hall show wind energy can really be produced in the next years. and that was dw brussels bureau chief alexander phenomena for

leaving kenya abil zoomed at least $73.00 bodies from a mass grave in the south of the country. it's believed that the people were followers of a christian cult choose. members were encouraged by the groups leader to starved themselves in order to get to heaven. the suspected cult leader has turned himself into police rescue workers or continuing to search for more bodies. c, w. c looks marino has been following the story from our studio in nairobi. he gave us this update on the colt and it's activities. so the lead of this particular group is known as paul, my kenzie, who until last last week he was not famously known in the country because he has been doing his activities and that the police are ada and, and, and very little scrutiny because nobody thought that he was doing something to this magnitude after today about 73 bodies have so far been discovered.

29 people who i rescued. why also fussy to death and some of the teachings that paul mackenzie has been teaching his full lives, including that you have to stop to death for you to meet jesus. education is evil. so some of the kids are children to parents within the chats. actually, as you move to that children from school, and he also has been teaching that if you're sick, you're going to need to go to hospital. and some of these teachings have gotten his name by so hooked, that they actually agreed to fast to get the wi fi. the korea reporting they are sports news grant, free motorcycle racing better known as motor g. p is the premier class of motorcycle road, racing. its popularity is enormous with race is taking place around the world. but somehow there has never been a black racer in the sport. one young south african he has the dream of changing
