use it's unclear how many people were on board, but according to passengers, there were hundreds a massive search effort has been launched. but i might be choosing need guns incorporation because we are talking about some very large number of shipwrecked people who i think is one of the most difficult and extensive regardless in terms of the numbers that the greek state is facing. so far as you're going to be a survivors say the vessel left the libyan port city of tub brook. heading for italy, the ship sang some 80 kilometers from the greek coast near the town of pillows. the great coast guard claims, the passengers repeatedly refused an offer of help when they were spotted late tuesday, greece is one of the main routes into the european union for migrants from africa, the middle east and asia. then they are of color moto says they are well equipped

to cope with the emergency we have shown like everyone in greece, many additional we have taken care of everything else. all the sites has been prepared, the toilet on the showers. anything that is needed, including clothing a photo, i guess if i hear of the greek president, catarina sack, a lot of hulu flew to the port of col amada, to assess the situation and to visit survivors. and hospital of the united nation says more than a $70000.00 refugees and migrants have arrived so far this year in europe's front line, mediterranean countries which enlist mt cassava is in athens. she gave us the latest on the rescue operation. well, it's actually continuing. it's a massive operation. there are several vessels that are combing the area of this

ship respite. at the same time. the numbers remain the same. meaning that no survivors have come out within the last 24 hours hope's. all say they for survivors . that said, officials, i've been speaking to say that the search may be extended for another day at the same time next to the search and rescue operation that is ongoing. there is an investigation into the causes of this and from the 104 men who have been rounded up as a vice versa. um, they're about twice a dozen who have been taken into separate questioning. and it is believed that some of them could be among the smugglers. that would be important in so far as trying to pin down the total number and people who are still missing and may have perished. of course, i believe to perish in this ship right in the sinking the

now we can return to our special coverage of the ukraine defense contact for it in brussels. we'll get back to night, toes headquarters in stoughton, vague speaking, let's join the nice of the secretary general, make making gains on the of course, this is due to the bravery of the scale so that your brain and forces also the support of from ne, finalize, is also, of course, uh a quick to go and that's when we meet to the nature of ukraine and commission shortly. the main message, it will be that we need to sustain and step up our support for ukraine. after our meeting and our discussions here today and tomorrow, we will also prepare for the upcoming business summit where uh the message will be about support ukraine, the but also the need to strengthen our on the tenants on the fence. this is about

new plans and you for structure and higher written this or forces, but it's also about the increase defense spending on the i know that united states has been very clear on this for a long time on the nato allies have stepped off of this incentive for team, we have seen that through the pinellas and kind of i have i the, the 150000000000 extra for defense. and at the summit, i expect of the allies will agree and even strongly commitments to increase defense spending. but to present it will not be the kind of the ceiling we are striving towards, but to 2 percent of g d, p for defense, it should be a minimum of to have to spend on defense a to insure it already collect the defense. and over the titans on the fence as a strong need to add ons. so many of the issues to address that once again, a large welcome to the well yeah and uh, this is great to be back at brussels if nice weather day as well,

but it really is good to be back here. so thanks for working beginning us, and thanks for your leadership, it's been impressive leadership throughout the thing. we're grateful for your continued service and sacrifice. we're meeting at a in, in historic time. and this is a critical point in the, in the history of the alliance here is a no rushes unprovoked invasion of ukraine has created the greater security prices as world war 2. and so i look forward to meeting with allies to talk about how we're going to strengthen deterrence on defense and, and so i am sure those will be healthy. and in good discussions, we have a very robust agenda based upon what you've laid out for us. and i know everybody's here to uh to, to get after it and engage with on that agenda. i would just finally say that i'm

very, very happy to welcome spend one to, to tonight. oh, and i look forward to sitting next to a new partner. and also look forward to another new partner one day in the not too distant future and we'd get sweden on board. and i know all of us are really helpful about that. thank you. thank you. ross, to get some analysis on what we heard the from nato. jake in stilton bank standing next to lloyd austin. that's across either to terry schultz. so followed that press conference from neither headquarters to or you did promise one woods and of course lloyd dustin did, they mentioned the with a one what stood out most from those one woods that we just so those 2 guys were just ready to get to their next meetings, let's face it. uh, they've been in this ukraine contact group all day, very intensive work in that meeting,

lining up what more support can be found from allies to support ukraine, particularly air defense. this is extremely important because as we've been covering all day here on dw, you, you've seen this assault from russia just a never ending. you know, the assault of, of missiles and drone attacks on this and on civilians and also on the infrastructure of ukraine. and of course, also on the stockpiles of weapons that allies are sending their to fight back against the russians to kick the russians out of ukrainian territory. so air defense was a really key topic here today with you cream defense contacts group. now what's happening is they're moving into a meeting of the nato defense ministers and they're, they're going to talk about a range of things also support for ukraine, ongoing support for ukraine, but also how to defend nato territory. so what they're trying to finalize before this summit and bill me is next month is exactly how nato is reorganizing itself to defend nato territory. something it never expected to have to do before russia invaded ukraine for the 2nd time. so they've really decided to come up with very

specific plan, sort of harking back to the cold war d planning of which countries will move to which area and how they can get there faster. so there's, you know, we see this air defense exercise ongoing, now led by germany. and these are some of the lessons that they're learning. how would we defend our own territory, as well as helping our friend ukraine to a lot of preparing the ground, the reading table for a long goal and, and data. as you talk about defense systems and expensive for what did you make in stoughton? big thing that the 22 percent of g d p is not a, it's not a ceiling but a flow and preparing people for the ongoing cost of this will absolutely. now this may have been an argument you would have heard even if we didn't have the support needed for ukraine, because of it, it's something that nato has. and for, for many years, even before trumps made the 2 percent so infamous. and that is because natal nieto military's nato allies have not been spending on their military military to the

extent that was needed, not keeping them up to up to date, not keeping their preparedness in training as, as they needed to. so 2 percent was, was the basic aspiration, spend 2 percent of your g d p on your own military in order to be ready for anything. of course, they didn't know how specific, but anything was going to be until rushes like you know, late us war. but this is something that now at the summit and bill me as they're going to say, not just 2 percent, but more than 2 percent is actually needed. so you've all got to get to 2 percent and many of them are nowhere near that. but after that, you need to spend more. so this is going to be an har hart argument. it's something they've been discussing for a long time. how harsh can you make that language to compel countries to do that? this is something that will be finalized and i'll be listening to it very carefully there at the bill near summit. the results much to the just and discuss thanks so much for helping us from brussels can result in process.

finally, fatal science can now enjoy previously. i'm seeing photos of the band in the hydro taken by pulled mccadney himself. and you book the iron of storm shows funding in 10 to minus shade by the fed for in the early career on the way to becoming the biggest band on the plan. a february 1964, while the beatles shots and sleep on the slight excitement was building in new york, the revival in the city is hailed. is one of the great spectacles of the 20th century. tomorrow for the 1st go to new york. as kids who would kind of made it over in england. so we will talk a little just you know, so we, we felt like school the cigarettes. so it was magical.

and while the world was watching these 4 young men onto one of them had dropped the camera and was turning its lens back in the world. poor mccartney afraid to go off the whole tool. he captured what he saw. hundreds of pictures which later disappeared into a basement all kinds. but now, decades later, they've been discovered in the move to live in a book that will be published around the world the to, to indulge. the other thing is, is we had photographers around with books, but they couldn't get this kind of access. the, this to this was complete between mania. the old

well daughter was writing and the upbeat beautiful songs became the sound tract of a generation that suddenly felt it could change the wild old times were busting. the 60s had arrived to the 1st truly global popular culture phenomenon. and they, they, they, they traveled all over the world, their music travel over the world. they, themselves were a mix of influences from all over. there are other extremely causes and one of the books highlights is the chapter on miami. it was the 1st time the young men from liverpool had seen palm trees, a collection of 10 to moments. all went down to miami and the british coff um loaned us and m g h and you know there was beach and send them girls to come off the 3 weeks. they went home

to a home. welcome to the well, had changed just a bit. and before we go, let's take a quick wrap of some of the stories making headlines around the world. un nuclear chief, raphael glossy, so several messages have been taken to stabilize the situation. at the central region nuclear power plant is leading a delegation to the russian controlled site to assess any damage. the after last week's breach of a massive dam disrupted the palace station supply. cooling one of the 2 women attacked by man near the tourist attraction of nice farms done castle in southern germany as dodd the attack on wednesday afternoon or could new story bridge popular with tourist mad fades but was caught by police and has since been held in custody. take an official inquiry has found that the former british prime

minister bars johnson deliberately misled parliament about parties in these offices . during the pandemic lock down, the committee has been investigating the so told potty guy the face of the year. johnson is called the probably by elliptical assassination. skipping, watching special coverage of a meeting of think you crime defense contact words in brussels, defense ministers from 50 nations, have been discussing how best to increase support fee credit and slack back against russian aggression. i'll be back with moneys at the top of the state, the and who will pay for germany. steel industry to go green workers out industrial dine to some cro pop sand. sparks flying over fear is a new state, a rule that won't allow the government to live up to its climate subsidy commitments. also coming up why indonesia is government wants to stop people from

the buying in portion. second time to close. this is the of the business i'm paid, ferguson, and thanks for joining me here in germany. thousands of steel barkers helping, protesting against each stage 8 rules blocking a mazda of kasha injection, aimed at making the industry more climate friendly. economy minister, a little bit hop at reassurance, thousands of testing clubs and 2 of our chris and just book the deal with brussels is on the verge of completion. the company says it needs subsidies of 2000000000 euros for new green, still making fonts that will be powered by climate neutral hydrogen to, to begin production in 2026. this to them comp, still planned as part of an industry that accounts for nearly 3 percent of germany's carbon emissions ion and still making produces around $20000000.00 tons of carbon dioxide a year. thanks to blast furnace technology. but that set to change gradually.

the 1st less furnace powered by hydrogen will go into a peroration in 3 years. special types we need to be installed for hydrogen to be delivered continuously. so that production run smoothly. germany still industry plants, a 30 percent reduction, and it's carbon emissions by 2030. and by 2045, it wants to make steal production, carbon neutral. that would mean only using green hydrogen. the switch to green, a technologist will cost more than $2000000000.00 euros for germany's largest still make, or it does include the government plans to support businesses. so that the use climate targets can be implemented, clean steel will be significantly more expensive, and that's why the industry needs the government's support to remain competitive on the global market where chinese still producers are the biggest competitor. for

more in this that spring and dw time it reports that louise osborne louise, welcome a long no steel is an atoria, sleep. darcy industry, how realistic is this target to become carbon neutral by 2045? so it's not impossible, but it's going to be very difficult. uh, companies are moving in the right direction. they're looking at investing in green steel through hydrogen. um, but there are lots of problems with that. um, for example, there is just not enough capacity to make the amount of hydrogen that will be needed at the moment to, to make steal. there's also going to be new infrastructure that is going to be needed. and they're high costs that are going to be involved in that, and it's going to be costly for people buying steel in the future for the moment anyway. but it needs to be done. 8 percent of greenhouse gas emissions are created by the steel industry globally. and so that really needs to be brought down. so again, it's going to be difficult, but it can be done. okay,

so you're saying it's not impossible. we saw image is there of to some crap where a chris protesting because they want to ensure that the government gives them enough money to build this green steel point. we got a little bit of a flavor in the report, but maybe you could explain to us what exactly is green steel. so steel is made using coal at the moment. and the idea is that uh, iron oxide is taken out the ground and to prefer purify b, and they need to put in uh, the, the cole. so that the, uh, the uh, the items from the oxygen from the iron oxide can react with the coal. and that makes some vast amounts, carbon dioxide. and that is the major problem of what they can do is try to take out the coal and to use hydrogen instead. so that the oxygen is, i'm reacting with hydrogen and making water, which is great. if you then have renewable sources that are making the hydrogen, then that can lead to to green steel. um,

also the energy that is used if it's renewable instead of coal, then that will lead to a, an environmentally friendly product which basically okay, so those times very promising, but you did also mention costs. green seal is more expensive, then it's dirty equivalent. how can builders be encouraged to buy is instead of the cheap alternative? well, i mean, the whole economy is under pressure to be compromised. and you know, consumers are putting pressure on on builders and also others to, to copy nice. not only what they are producing themselves, but also the supply chain that, that is coming from. so build as a going to have to in the future. look for green, the top alternatives to make their consumers happy. so that's one side. government's also putting pressure on on industries to d, called nice so that they can meet their green goals. costs of hydrogen based steel production is going to be very high to begin with, but that will reduce also. um, so from 2013 to 2040 that that price is due to come down and will probably also be

cheaper than coal based still eventually. okay. so looking beyond germany, china has always be known as a producer, as very cheap and very thorough sheet. steel, are there similar efforts there to green the industry? i mean, that's a really important question because china produces around 60 percent of steel at the moment, and it's a big player in the industry. and there is movement also that are to move to green steel, for example. they have 6 major well players that are are making steel and at least half of them are already investing in hydrogen based steel. um, so they are moving in that direction. they also have the compromise ation goals as a country that they have to stick to. they want to peak on their carbon emissions by 2030 and it's become completely copper neutral by 2060. if they are going to do that, still needs to play a part because it's the 2nd largest industry with regards to a company,

emissions in china. and. and we're just gonna have to see how economic growth goes as to whether china will stick with that plan or not. okay, so things aren't tend to those a going in the right direction. the reason i was point, thank you so much for pressing hold on for me. now to some of the other global business stories making news. time central bank has cost it's main interest rates as new data reinforced concerns over a stalling post coven recovery in the world's 2nd largest economy. the move signals official dissatisfaction with the face of the chinese economy, which was expected to find a box after a star. she's abandoned strict corona virus controls. canada is freezing ties, but the china led asian infrastructure investment bank, while it propes allegations that is dominated by the chinese communist party. the canadian, former communications chief of the a, i b, quit this week after making the allegations the bunk calls criticism baseless and

disappointing. the european central bank has raised this key interest rate by a quarter of a percentage point to 4 percent. it's the bonds, 8 consecutive hike, bringing borrowing rates to their highest level in 15 years. you inflation has dropped slightly over the past months, but remains far higher than what economists consider healthy. as a group of music publishers has filed a lawsuit against whizzer over alleged copyright violations. the charges relate to around $1700.00 songs, which they said to us are used to attract the users to audio visual polls. if science be in violation of copyright law, the social media company could have to pay more than $250000000.00 in damages. in indonesia, the textile industry employs some 3700000 people. despite the strength of the sector, many locals choose to buy imports, the 2nd hand clothing rather than the more expensive fleet domestic,

he made terms of. now, authorities are violent to crack, then the practice looks like dirty laundry. but it is not 2nd hand tech styles. satellite hot cakes and indonesia at this market and by do was just saw there 1100 stalls, offering well known brands at low prices. the board of 2nd and close to indonesia has been illegal for almost 10 years. but no one here seems to care that some people may be relax into wearing secondhand clothes. that 2nd item, the upper middle class people here are interested in the stuff that i disagree with the fine because so many people get the income from 2nd. i'm trade unemployment will increase if this is prohibited the imports come mostly from

japan does by the bread bishan. indonesia has still imported more than $870.00 tons of use quotes worth more than $11000000.00 us dollars in the last decade. you know, now the duties and government has had enough. they're adding to crime down hard on the 2nd hand market in a bed to protect the domestic textile industry. concerns over health issues such as mode found in ward closing are also among the reasons why keep that mulatto import ok if the bad of imported cloth is not enforced by the government. and we allow them to keep selling in indonesia, the domestic techs so industry will be disrupted. when did you, why would be nice. yeah. yeah, and i don't. and when that happens, the how with a country develop the $100.00 that it will buy one part of the strategy you to protect the domestic reduction as dues left huge stairs on a long list of newly produced textiles and fabrics. but many in the industry say

this is actually at the root of the problem. high import costs, due to terrors, have a negative side effects of factories like this one did, but do, would have to manufacture using only material produce in indonesia. this restricts their ability to offer a wider range of products and boost experts. plus the factors that don't develop neither the skills nor the machinery to produce global standard garments says someone who is familiar with that style, industry hello say. but i think on the and the problem in indonesia is actually that the supply chain is too long, long supply chains without in high costs. that in countries like china, the supply chain is already short. indonesia inevitably has to go in that direction, but got us on reducing the number of the legally imported secondhand clothes thing may help the domestic fabric industry to some extent, but it comes at a price apple 2nd hand market. most people not worry about their jobs,

they would rather live does the indonesia becoming more competitive on the global market, while still shopping for board designer shirts. i'm finally installation. it's got sweden looking so crazy right now because us senior be on site may have contributed to the countries 9.7 percent here on your price. rise in may. they offer trajectory coincided for the stars of her world's tour, and the country costs for hotels, clothing, and recreational services, rose prompting, anomalous sounds good fung to conclude that her much hyped concert may have accounted for 0.2 of the 0.3 percentage points, which hotels and restaurants added to the countries, inflation ranks, bills, bills, bills, and that rust if i show from where you can always check, i do have a dot com slash business. we're on the date of the music music channel as well for me and the team here in berlin. it's by the,
