geez, and we have the human resources and volunteers. so we don't have a means to provide aid to these people, a middle of them aware of the libertines biggest fear. is that the last key with this? why it could destroy its, for the struggling, the economy campaigns against the war. our evidence can be meanwhile, for the highest part on the southern board to take a look at the civil stories that making headlines around the world. the us north committee, i have had a rec, direct exchange at the un security council meeting. as age accused of posing a threat to its career, defended its recent spies satellite loans while the us insisted that its military trails with south korea but routine exercise. the other for briefing rescue as in india say that on the verge of freeing 41 workers dropped in a collapsed mountain tunnel in the himalayas. they've been stuck back for more than 2 weeks after landslide closed off the projects entrance. workers are expected to

be extracted one by one through and $0.90 a meter wide high. yeah, it has revoked a little bit. criminalize the smuggling of migrants through the country. it has a major migration gateway to your of the 2015 law came with financial support from the european union. but the relationship has since broken down. often. he has ministry to power in july, jim and chance the whole life shots as he will stick to his plans to modernize the country's economy. despite the looming budget crisis, speaking in parliament, the challenge of the defends is government's rac, hold on spending, and said it would fulfill all of its obligations to the public. is cabinets facing a 60000000000 in the world whole. and his project following the building by the congress top court this month is how he described the situation. that is one thing, it's clear. this judgment creates a new reality for the federal government and for current and future governments of

a federal and state level editing should be a reality that makes it more difficult to achieve importance and widely shed goals for our country. by over the past 2 years, we have been shaken by serious phone for see next or no crises. challenges of magnitude republic has never experienced before on on to have to which the massive gap in finance is on the counter and pulled performance of the german economy have left a big question mark over the next year. i'm going to go the and explains winter came early this year. and what ordinary german scrapple with the pitfalls, it's government to face is a slippery slope. it all started here with the verdict from jimmy's constitutional quote, a couple of weeks ago,

but called the country's finances into question. the government had moved left over emergency funds from the private 19 pandemic to fund to counter climate change . the court ruled that was the legal. why an uncle, a medical them palate gemini, introduced the so called step break. it is enshrined in the constitution. i'm limits how much government can fall, right? it can only be suspended in emergencies, such as the pandemic. the verdict left a gaping hole with 60000000000 zeros in the government's budget. the sad news already we can start. i'm interested in vic friday to fish to losing the 60000000000 euro. it's in the climate fund total will result in an executive trop of around half a percentage point in growth next year. this will continue into 20252026 via

top. it's also bad news for some of the governments biggest plans. the money had been allocated to semi conductor and battery factories, so the funds and even trains and half of it has already been spent. so the government needed to take emergency action. so for 2023, that that break is now being suspended, which means the bar and if it has been suspended, the government could borrow more. it's not clear yet what will happen in 2024. but it could spell a hard winter ahead for the governing coalition, but they definitely political correspondent, hands brands, told us more about the chancellor's plans for solving the budget crisis is really only a clear plan of what's to be done about the car and you about 2023 for this year. the budget will be revised. that will be post this this week most likely by parliament, by declaring an emergency which allows the government to take up more loans to go

further into debt. but what's going to happen for the coming year for 2024 is completely on unclear even off to the speech that's a that shows gave to parliament. he reassured the citizens who reassured investors here re unsure the international community that all the commitments that the government has committed to will in fact be met. but there's no question at the moment. no, no, no idea at the moment how that is going to happen. we're going into the new year with a very, very unclear situation in germany. sounds, brands, and nights are foreign ministers, amazing and brussels next week to discuss the warning ukraine also on the agenda is sweet and spit to join the ministry on lines. arriving at the meeting, nato secretary general against delton, folks that he was confident the organization of board continued to um, ukraine. despite the current political blockade in washington, a congressional republicans have become more skeptical about support for key like

the states to do so. if you don't lose the brussels bureau chief, alexandra from nominate is following events that nato age q a. welcome, alexandra. um, now the turkish and swedish foreign minister as a been holding by natural tools. i'm what are we hearing from the well, they are due to meet together later this afternoon, but the turkish foreign minister hawkins, who done already met with the u. s. secretary of state mr. blinking. however, we are not expecting any break through today when it comes to sweden sneed to membership. despite growing disappointment and frustration of a truck is located, also sweden sneed to that and to with the diplomats telling us that that is a shame that it needs to happen very quickly. and that turkey it took is located, is hurting the whole alliance. but the metal now is with the turkish parliament.

and the hope here is that the for and 1st community of the took, if parliament could to we lived sweden's natal membership in the next days. but then again, the whole parliament needs to vote on that. so as you can see, it can still take a while and actually the plan was to well come sweden as a member of the alliance at this meeting ends to raise sweden's flag alongside those of our allies today. but it's not going to happen. okay, so what else is on the nature of foreign ministers agenda? the support for ukraine is of course, at the top of the agenda with foreign ministers speaking how to further support you, queen, so that the country can survive the upcoming winter. because what we are seeing right now is that russia is already intensified it's drone and missile attacks on ukraine's civilian and energy infrastructure, the f one,

ministers. we also speak about china and the challenges the china is posing to the alliance that they will speak about the tensions in the western balkans. and that's a nato is increasing its presence there. and they will also talk about a topic that is raised almost every time they meet the needs to increase defense spending. psych here for about alexandra phenomena in brussels or 10 people have died in ukraine after icey winds and snow storms swept across the country. the southwest effected the region of a desk has been passed and by severe winter weather since sunday. so as of a fruits and trees knocked down the power lines and dumps note to, to meet his beef in some places, tulsa comes as the training troops continue that counter offensive against russian forces. so, follow the attacks of failed to achieve any major breakthrough. let's get more flat

corresponded, misuse, put in a new key, broken, mathias. how's this winter weather, affecting operations of the in which it's not many things are more difficult. so which is, uh, uh, uh, get diseases so they get sick and the movement is getting more difficult depending on the weather, especially in those periods where you don't have constant for us to cause dry weather. uh, so with become difficult and uh that's of course something that affects both sides . um, it's uh maybe a little advantage for those who try to, well, depending compared to those who move forward. but of course, with the depths better to the weather, has an advantage here. and i'm a strange story coming out of the ukraine today. the wife of the country's military intelligence chief is reporting to have been poisoned. and what can you tell us about the yeah,

she uh is what is known is that she felt sick and then she get got tested and they found uh, elevated levels of heavy metals in her blood. at the same time, we're hearing that as a offices of this military intelligence service have also been poisoned to have the same symptoms. so, um, it sounds at the moment likely that there was some kind of a, of an attack on uh, on the intelligence service itself. it's unclear how her husband, the heads of the military off the service, whether he's affected or not. and it's of course, unclear how these heavy metals came into the blood of his wife. uh, there's lots of questions here, but what we do know is that limited miniature intelligence has said that to have a number of attempts of attacks on the, on the head on, bu donna,

in the past 2 years. okay, so not the 1st a visa sorts of attempts and presumably everyone's looking towards the most good a as the culture of the that's of course the suspicion here. but we really do not know much about this. um, what we have heard so far was from sources in the intelligence that have a tool to ukrainian media that has been much official information about it. so for the moment we need to wait for the results of the investigation before we can say for sure what has happened to you. he is, of course, you wouldn't be one of the major targets of any uh, russian a attends or for tax type human salesperson is putting in case someone who's making headlines around the world will stuff in russian. but of course, has extended the detention of wall street journal reporter,
