the, the, you're watching the to be your name is coming to live from birth. time is running out for 5 people on board a submarine deep and the north atlantic rescue crews are searching for a soft that went missing while taking taurus to steve. the wreck of the titanic, also coming up on the show, china's premier leaves
1:01 pm
a delegation to berlin as germany and its largest trading partner tried to reset ties. and scientists raised the alarm for marine life as an ocean water temperatures break a new record, the hello, i'm clear, richardson, thank you very much for joining us. a search and rescue operation is underway in the atlantic ocean for a small submarine that went missing will taking taurus of the wreckage of the titanic. it's feared the vessel could be almost 4 kilometers underwater, several aircraft have been using so in our technology to try and pinpoint its exact location. while a submarine team is hoping to launch a rescue attempt late on tuesday, it's believe the submarine should have enough oxygen to keep its pilot and 4 passengers alive until thursday. it's a race against time to find
1:02 pm
a sub like this one and the people on it. it last contacts, doing a dive to the site to the titanic, wreckage of the coast of canada. it is a remote area and it is a challenge to conduct a search in that remote area. but we are deploying all available assets to make sure that we can locate the craft and rescue the people on board ocean gate. the company responsible for the expedition takes people to the titanic for prices starting at $250000.00. once out, the site has been just kind of, i mean to a sub and defend to the bottom of the ocean. the passenger ship famously signed in 1912 on its maiden voyage off the striking iceberg, shooting more than 1500 passages. its wreckage has been
1:03 pm
extensively explored since it was discovered in the mid 19 eighties. these expeditions to the titanic rec, so might generally include um, logistics and marine biologist. but the company also brings people who pay to travel alone, which is be una, hey, ms. harding is believed to be among the missing passages. a deep submersible diving is very dangerous, but it is uh its height check, you know, any so you chair goes by, the equipment gets better, the technology gets better and so on. so i'm very hopeful a very positive. i mean, i was in the sub for 12 hours, we have our own breathing system on board and if that's maintained properly, like changing your filter and your so you go to the scrubber, you can stay down there for, you know, quite a few hours the u s coast guard estimates the croft has enough oxygen to last until thursday. i'd like to get some insight here from calander frank owen,
1:04 pm
secretary of the summer and institute of australia. thank you so much for joining us today. i'd like to ask uh, based on your expertise, what do you think the biggest challenges or what you think they are going to be for the search team that is looking for the submarine. so the biggest challenge is going to be to find them and present. um if, if the something ryan is sitting on a c bed, which every indication seems to be the best the case. but then it starts looking like all the pieces of debris that are on the say that around the rest of the titanic side, they saw coming out of the background. so assuming they would even be able to find that, do you have an idea of what a rescue operation could possibly look like here as well? i think the, the on the phone any viable for the rescue. if i have authoration for this would be
1:05 pm
some means of physical intervention in the form of a what they call a work class, remotely offer out of the vehicle. because a large hydro likely pallet, a vehicle like that flying boxes with um, like manip manipulators with july icons. and they are equipped with cameras and, and signing uh, and the powder from the surface. with true a very large on biblical of about 50 millimeters in diameter this and then pounds this vehicle down to the sea bed. um it then has quite a large amount of force to dislodge it. if it's trapped somewhere, if it's close or entangled in, in something it might have the tools even to count why if, if that's the, what is a problem? and do we know if that's the case?
1:06 pm
well, we don't know, i don't know, but it's 2 days, 2 and a half days until the operation that i or since the alarm was raised, or at least since the guy the time to stop right dogged. i'm not sure how long it took for the allowed to be right as but uh, that's a little e signature. there's 96 hours of emergency life support. it's in the, in the summer. and so if i are going to get one of these are these and the site that have them already on the side, that it takes time to location to get it to look for probably some jobs and new from loved find to a suitable ship to weld everything so the deck of that ship style, let ship to the size, and that's 370 nautical miles. it's all over the ice, steaming h, y to get there. so you starting this to build
1:07 pm
a picture of july his and july as of july is on that. oh, last 8. so i guess to 96 hours that started sometime in some to on sunday and then the east coast time. yeah. and a normal undertaking and not much time. thank you so much for joining us on data audio news with that insight, we really appreciate your time. thank you. we're well, a chinese delegation that led by premier lee chung is in berlin for talks aimed at resetting relations. between the 2 trading giants, german, chancellor, all i felt welcome to chinese premier. i had a formal discussions, climate change and economic issues top the agenda, but germany is expected to also raise more contentious issues. such as china is closeness to russia and it's alleged human rights abuses. the visit to berlin is premier of the transfers for and trip since taking office. this meeting poses
1:08 pm
a tough balancing act for the german chancellor who has described china is both a partner and a stomach rival. so how will off shall to be walking that line and these consultations. i put the question to the got these political correspondence lay on the phone, how much time a yeah, chair, that's the big question. overshadowing these government consultations between germany and china. on the one hand, jeremy is facing some really tough realities about china. you mentioned that beijing is standing by russia's presidents ready, be 14, this fight. russia's war against ukraine. china itself is becoming more and more aggressive and its own region in east asia and the south china sea. sort of choice in these consultations doesn't ones the message to be. it's just business as usual with china, which is why, and we expect no joint statements to come of the out of these consultations like in the last and, you know, when the, when the last, the government consultations of the, of the switch happens. because this is what we're here from the german side,
1:09 pm
there's simply not enough common ground. but on the other hand, china still is germany's biggest trading partner over the last decade and a half or so it's has become absolutely crucial to the german economy and essential to many big german companies. so germany also has an interest in keeping relations with china somewhat stable, and that is why you mentioned it's and this meeting is supposed to focus on climates and, and the restructuring of the economy. because that is one topic where these 2 countries can see, can be seen as partners and where they can collaborate and but it is a very difficult line choice is under a lot of pressure and will certainly be observed very closely. not only in germany, but also in europe in the us and in the whole world. so considering how important those economic ties are for germany, can you give us a sense of how much in the wake of rushes, full scale invasion of ukraine, germany has been rethinking how much it should rely on basing for things like trade
1:10 pm
in energy or yeah, i mean, the russian invasion of ukraine has definitely increased pressure on berlin to decrease its reliance on being and kind of forced to rethink its relationship with an online allies, especially when it comes to very essential things like energy. and so it actually is durham sense and wants to avoid an over reliance on chinese trade and diversified term. you supply of key goods. a strategy called the risking and we have to see it already in the context of the pin demick. that hurts supply and shade the supply chains. and so the big question is, can germany really affords to decrease that reliance on china considering that china still is germany's biggest trading partner? mm hm. leo. and it's also interesting that we, john chose germany for his 1st trip abroad since taking office, especially as the tensions between washington and beijing are running so high. what do you think is behind this decision? yeah, i mean people who's been observing china and it's 5,
1:11 pm
it's very close. you say it's no coincidence that the chinese premier chose germany as his 1st stop. on this 1st step since taking office. they see it as an attempt to drive a wedge between europe, avenue s, at a time when tensions between washing and bathing are high. but at the same time, many in germany here see anthony lincoln's visit to beijing as assigned those relations between china in the us, or at least advertising to some extent. so there's a big sense of relief here in germany. i'm because the nightmare obviously would be us trying to relationships to tier a rating or even and breaking into a from conflict. well, thank you so much for bring this up to speed there. that is really fun. how much time i would bring you up to speed. now, with some other world news headlines, or at least one peep person has been killed and nearly 2 dozen others injured. after multiple tornadoes swept through the us state of mississippi. the storms left several buildings in ruins and made urologist say it's unusual to have torn it was
1:12 pm
in the area at this time of year. at least 4 people have been injured after an actual building man attacked several chinese restaurants and new zealand largest city oakland police arrest of a 24 year old suspects at the same witness as a the attacker appear to target diners at random french police have rate at the headquarters of the paris 2024 olympics organizing committee as part of a pro into suspected corruption. prosecutor safety investigation focuses on alleged embezzlement of public funds and favoritism. according to a statement, the committee members are cooperating with investigators and romanian authorities have normally indicted controversial u. k. implements or andrew tate on human trafficking and raped charges. they include forming a criminal gang to sexual exploit women, his brother and the 2 other suspects have also been formally charged. a recent
1:13 pm
release of 7 europeans health and iran has raised hopes that more would follow, but more than a dozen western passport holders remain detained in the atlantic republic. they include at least 2 german nationals. one of them is 68 year old. the heed coffee dw met with her daughter who was fighting for her mother's freedom headphone has become mad. m to lorenz sharpest with him. from the moment her mother no he took a v, became a political pres entering on almost 3 years ago. it's always a m s type, it's being sierra and fighting back, you know, and when my mom was arrested and i decided to go public with her taste immediately . and this is not an easy decision. you know, because everybody, so a lot of people stay and especially this nomic republic stay stay quiet and this is
1:14 pm
going to be solved. and, and, and instinct told me, no, you need to go public. this is the best way to protect the target. and so mariam campaigns for her mother's release from difference to 2 years in prison for to 68 year old women's rights activist has been in prison for national security violations. charges that are complete the fabricated according to her family. the only reason her mother is in jail may, i'm says, is her german citizenship. because this nomic republic is using her to put pressure on berlin. that became apparent then no he took the was on brief medical leave last year. mary, i'm tells me she was taken back to prison at the time when the german chancellor and the german foreign minister spoke out against the repression after the uprising after the desktop is you know, my so i mean it. so we saw that and they are taking revenge on my mother for
1:15 pm
something that germany is doing. this is something that germany needs to understand that my mother's imprisonment depends on what germany does. and germany, marian mistresses is not doing enough when it comes to standing up for her mother. as we have seen in the last 2 and a half years more than 2 and a half years. that assignment diplomacy and i'm advocating in the way they do, does not work. so i can repeat what i've been telling them since 3 years . you need to change the strategy. you need to be more brave. it's in your responsibility if something happens to my mother in evan prison. i believe a blame it on the then her biggest vicious says is that the doors of in the open
1:16 pm
symbol and her mother, no heat, tough ivy. and all the other political prisoners can leave in peace and freedom. i'm very pleased to welcome yvonne, re a member of the german parliament for the governing the social democrats. she's one of many german politicians who have taken on a political sponsorship of iranian prisoners campaigning for their release. now, rights and groups claim that iran detains western passport holders as part of a deliberate policy of hostage taking in order to extract concessions from foreign governments. would, would you agree with that? well, it's pretty apparent that they are doing that. um the special thing is that they are not doing it ad or they are not doing it for only german nationals, but they only doing that for buying nationals. so people who have, who had any around the and pass board and have another pass, but to so the bi nationals are the ones that they are targeting. and i would say they are taking them as hostages of political hostages. so how should western governments react in our report?
1:17 pm
we saw there was a daughter of an iranian german citizen in prison. and tyrone who said that silent diplomacy doesn't work and that a new strategy was needed. i think the most important thing is i think that's one of the things that we saw in the last couple of months is that the european countries have to work together and they have to have a strategy as one the because right now you, you mentioned that isn't in um, what you saw before that a lot of countries got the national as released germany as one of the countries who didn't get any prisoners released. so it's like all the national interest, the playing into those game, the game of the around in regime. so i think it's very important that the have one strategy and only wanted to speak as one, and that's the biggest challenge that to be having in europe right now. and what exactly should a united strategy look like then? um for once they are a lot of people active us about also people living in the round who i was calling
1:18 pm
for the tower listing of the r g c. and i think the most important thing is that if you want to do those things and if you want to make those sanctions much heavy and much harder, then we have to do it together. and then we have to like, agree on what all those things that we do. mond, often is if you have 2 moms, we have to do them together and not just get divided on on it. so i think we have to get very, very hard sanctions on the islamic were probably gonna be around about also have a clue and a good gender, what we are demanding from the ronnie and regime if they are trying to negotiate with the open union. yeah, i'd like to pick up on that because 4 years ago in 2019 the u. s. government designated or runs revolutionary guards as a terrorist organization. what do you think the blockades are that are stopping the you from doing the same? as i said before, it's much harder to do at the union because we have 27 member states and it has to
1:19 pm
be on the, you know, man of police. so all states have to agree on that. and those states is allowed to be to. so they have so many different interest playing into, into this game. and i think that's one of the things that makes us much less efficient than the us. i think that's one of the things that, that we have to like, i don't know, we have to have a look on how the us deal with that and deal with the economy. and even at a national level, germany is still one of the runs main european trading partners. is it reasonable to do business with the country that's terrorizing its own people and supporting rushes, warren ukraine? it is not and the german government has cut down a lot of activities. and even although the bilateral negotiations have been put on, i say it's not like as we are expanding our, our business with the ronnie and redeem or the ronnie and economy. so i think we
1:20 pm
are doing as much as we can to, to, to put the pressure on the right the is allow me to probably go be around and supporting the around and people. and i think that's something that we should do as a group as a whole lot. thank you very much for joining us on the news that was german lawmaker gave on 3. thank you. scientists are saying that over the past 3 months, water temperatures in the north atlantic have set new records not only has that created problems for marine life in the region, but it's also expected to affect error temperatures worldwide. this is the north atlantic where temperatures have searched for more than 3 months. along the coast of the u. s. europe and africa off the coast of texas, shoals of dead fish that died from lack of oxygen. or i'm worried about the warming trend that we've seen the ocean right? no, because the, the warming is links with less oxygen in the ocean,
1:21 pm
which means that the fisheries industries will, will be impacted by that. and i, as well as a more acidic ocean will lead to the things i, colorado bleaching. and this is very rewarding for the future. on june 11th, a temperature of 22.7 degrees celsius was recorded. that's half a degree above the previous high set in 2010. 1 factors, dust and sand. global warming has weakened trade winds from the sahara desert in africa. so this, this from this already, they will see that on the surface of the ocean. and this, this dust used to kind of cool you think because it's reflex solar radiation vector space. on top of that, el nino is now officially underway. el nino is a natural climate pattern that happens on average every 2 to 7 years. if fuels
1:22 pm
tropical psych loans and boosts rainfall as well as flood risk. so video is happening while the world's oceans pretty much everywhere warmer than average. that's not normally something that we see those warm waters combined with el nino and, and already hot atmosphere are expected to bring record temperatures to the world. this year. let's big now to samantha bird, just a deputy director at the copernicus, climate change service. it provides you with information about climate change. welcome. we do know that oceans go through natural cycles of heating and cooling. what makes this latest temperature rise? so alarming 6 my that i'm trying to. yes. so the, there is a annual cycle in the finance of our plants buy the land temperatures on the ocean
1:23 pm
temperatures. normally the maximum, the ocean and temperatures are in august in, in the northern hemisphere, summer. but we're seeing very slight ocean temperatures at the moment in early june montoya. then what you would normally see from this point of view, in addition to that, particularly in the north atlantic region, ocean was for temperatures a much funnier. which suggested rain, he waved their uh, 5 different categories of marine heat, weight, and whit or the at the highest castle grade castle grief. i say, i think it's fair to say that we're in on trunk to church rate in terms of what we're the bang in the ocean temperatures right now. so with this spike and temperatures in the atlantic ocean, who is going to be most affected by the consequences sourcing says the consequences will play out over a number of months. um, obviously impacts life in the ocean. and in your early report, you mentioned a fish death, sorry when the ocean williams up its track suffice. sorry,
1:24 pm
you don't get the mixing between the, the person where is monique trans and the fastest ation when my slice lives. so when you get this stratification, it prevents this mixing occurring as the life and the surface vibration quickly observe all the options, oxygen, and then they don't have the ability to move and say for inspiration to get new oxygen. so they just don't mind that this happens without their awareness because it's a passive exchange with the se deals and a filtering of all so so, so we, we've already seen a huge number of fish steps and the expectation is we'll see more if these and just explain for our international viewers. um, what is it about measuring the sea surface temperature that makes it such a critical metric to help us understand the state of the global climate. as the temperature in all forms is a really useful measure of, of climate change. but we know every um, 3 science that the ocean has absorbed,
1:25 pm
90 percent of the excess heat from extra greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. so because the ocean is, is the proverbial or no less spanish that sites up the best extra heat when it gets full sense of what we've seen in the past. it means we don't know what's coming next. so it has implications for life. it have it, it, it has implications to people who depend on the organisms within the ocean. it also has the ability to change storms. so with high speeds it's easier for her attains to form, for example. so we may see additional storms in the north atlantic. this yeah, i mean, the of the hemisphere that in the southern hemisphere, particularly in the pacific ocean, we also have some developing el nino. and so we have very calling the surface temperature is that phones off the coast of ecuador in periods. and now they spiking across across the equitorial pacific. and we're expecting this el nino
1:26 pm
signal to continue to develop. we already know how strong a l nino is going to be. but this means we'll see why a temperatures in the, in the pacific like to this year, which may also be data of the impact slattich horribly change where again, we'll see massive loss of, of find on, on charisse in the induct. pacific region is so much at stake here. thank you for joining us to talk about it. that is samantha burgess from the copernicus climate change surface. you're very welcome. have just before we go, have you ever found yourself frustrated when your communication lines go down? well, a police station in india has an equal solution to this modern problem. and it is to use a carrier pigeons. it's a service dating back to 1946 when it was years to send messages to remote police stations. notes are written on pieces of onion paper and then attached to the birds, which can travel for up to 800 kilometers at a stretch. and a quick reminder of our top story,
1:27 pm
or a search and rescue operations underway in the atlantic ocean for a small submarine that went missing, will take you taurus to explore the wreckage of the titanic its fears. the vessel could be trapped at the depth of nearly 4000 kilometers. sorry. it's 4 kilometers that is with less than 3 days worth of oxygen or the following. that story for you . that is your needs update. on this hour though, i'm clear. richardson in berlin. thank you so much for watching the
1:29 pm
a story that takes us along or the right. it's about the perspectives culture information. this is the the news w. mine's millions of old solar panels. nothing the garbage. not so fast. trash can be turned into treasure companies from hammer to india are turning electronic waste into goals. and finally making technology a sustainable business. close to 45 minutes on dw, the
