the the, this is the dw news live with from the lynn and historic breakthrough at the costs of climate summits all night negotiations in dubai result and in the agreement to transition away from fossil fuels. the hard for deal sends a powerful signal to investors and policymakers. scientists say it's the last best hope to stable climate dissolves full. so coming up pressure is mounting on israel over its boy games come off in gauze. a huge majority of the un general assembly voted to back in immediate cease via the israel says it will continue with it's
12:01 pm
offensive. and present, invite and supports ukraine in its mission to secure the u. s. h. president. all not walk away from ukraine. neither will the american people thought republicans are still blocking us funding for you crazy. with russian the manuscript is mckinnon. welcome to the program. a deal has been reached at the global climate conference comp 28 in dubai. after all night talks. and you text is released in the early morning and approved just a few hours later, the agreement calls for transitioning away from all fossil fuels. and now that includes coal, oil and gas,
12:02 pm
separate lives of is cool. that wording historic is what the top $28.00 presidents sultan of med, l. java had to say. it is a plan that is led by the science. it is a balance of the coast emissions bridges the gap on the patient. but he imagines global finance and delivers on loss on damage. we have the basis to make a trance formation of the change happen. let us finish what we have started. hitting no objection. it is so decided that the all right, let's get more from dw climate report to tim shown, but who is we're reporting from dubai. could see you to him. now this is being called a historic deal by some is it really the
12:03 pm
quote it is for southern historic deal or has at least a story elements for 30 years of climate change to climate change conference history. it was never possible to mention fossil fuels in the final agreement, and now parties have agreed to just transition away from fossil fuels. so this is huge, and this is indeed his story about germany's foreign minister said before we have been with one foot in the fossil fuel world and with one foot in the world of the renewables. now, the end of the fossil fuel era has been decided for 2 years ago. it was unimaginable to talk about to negotiate about fossil fuels. this has been done here before the hot metals we saw that in the, in the past days it was really emotional. but we also have to say those commitments
12:04 pm
on non bond. so it really depends on lead us to go back home now and put into practice what they have decided to you. otherwise, it's an historic agreement on people. right? so this is, disagreement is non binding and talking about things, perhaps sickly. we're talking about a transition away from. so does this really mean the end of fossil fuels any time soon? well, definitely not. and here is the devil in the detail. um, it mentions just to highlight some point in countries are required to transition away from fossil fuels, according to their capacity is necessary as yeah, as we know, countries in the world for example, of developing countries of multiple countries. countries have very different financial capacities. the very different points in the economic development,
12:05 pm
etc. but this also means they can adapt of the transition energy transition to that the needs. but this also means okay, they might use fossil fuels longer. then it also mentions natural gas as the transition energy as a transition fuel that means, okay, um if the country wants to go to lots of renewables shuts down and i hope our plan can use natural gas, which is a fossil fuels as a transition energy and thirdly, there are exceptions, for example, for coal, we only speak from a coal stays down, and that was instead of the transition away from, for, for something that was necessary as countries off of countries as india and china, for example, a still heavily invested in coal power and they would probably not have agreed to um, to a deal like that if, if there was stronger language on, on culture 10, thanks so much for the update. that's the w's tim showing the reporting from design
12:06 pm
. and we're doing now by class size. some of these, the co head of the climate policy team at climate analytics as a global climate science and policy institute just by some thanks so much for your time today. um we sold the outcome that called 28, drew a standing ovation. are you celebrating this deal, or i think what we've seen here agreed in the past few hours is, is really a mixed back. and i would note that there was an even biggest under innovation for representative from the small island developing states who made it very clear that the not happy with this deal. it's not going far enough. it's not done what the science tells us, needs to happen, which has been very rapid reductions in fossil fuels, starting immediately. i peak and greenhouse gas emissions before the middle of this decade. so they've already asked for more. they've asked for this process to
12:07 pm
protect that future. i think the, the, the view here is that this tax takes the 1st steps towards boss. of course it's, it is a key moment in history that we have for the 1st time. acknowledge that we need to transition away from fossil fuels, but, but there's also a lot of loopholes and the text for example, mentions of compound caption, storage and, and use of gas, which the science shows are clearly cannot be relied upon in any large scale. they need to be on the way out as soon as possible. so you've made the point very clearly that this transition needs to happen quickly. is the well does, doesn't phase out fossil fuels completely? can we still somehow reach the piracy agreements? 1.5 degrees centigrade woman limit the science is very clear that in order to meet the 1.5 to the limit,
12:08 pm
we would need to pick emissions very, very quickly. and that means guessing folks will fuels very quickly. they make up 90 percent of current carbon dioxide emissions. so yukon, customers since that the pace that you need to without getting out of fossil fuels . but there is a growing mention of clean energy technologies, which is all going to stop cutting into fossil fuel demands. web governments like it so not, and there is we have seen absolutely growing that meant them here and political will to move away from fossil fuels as i would say, a small minority of governments are already pushing against language for fossil fuel phase out. and, but the market speaks for itself, the economics because of themselves. but the renewable energy is all going to be taking over in the next couple of years and, and we will start to see a decline unless government really keeps popping up the fossil fuel industry. and so we know that 1.5 is still still possible. um, but yeah, we do need to take got see governments taking the necessary steps to get that. we
12:09 pm
know the funding consensus is never easy at these climate conferences. do you think global climate conference is like this of the right way to to cut, cut tail the impacts of climate change? so i think that a critical part of the process, what you have in these processes is the most vulnerable countries setting face to face with the wealthiest countries. the major messes the countries that are really causing the problem and have the biggest capacity to address the problem. and it's so important to have that face to face dialogue, to give a voice to those most valuable countries. um, but these parts, this is really set the baseline they set so kind of the minimum level of what, what we all collectively agree to do what we need is and leaders to come forward and push side the so we need, we've had a lot of governments in the room, even some surprising governments, like australia, for example, has been saying based support of fossil fuel phase out. we need to see the old government's going back home and looking at the national policies and targets and
12:10 pm
thinking very costly about how they're going to move foster to protect those most vulnerable countries who's, who's the residing coal here, some more action rights clarify some for employment unless explained to you so much for your analysis today. now israel is coming under pressure from key allies of the it's will in gaza of the month of students to pull the us president joe biden criticized israel on choose day full. and i quote indiscriminate foaming in gauze though the vote by the un general assembly also indicates israel grown isolation on the world stage. then the nations overwhelmingly box a resolution demanding an immediate humanitarian ceasefire and gaza. israel insists it will persist with it's an ground defensive against from us, which is classified as a tower group by the u. s. the you and all the countries there was celebration
12:11 pm
of un ceasefire resolution paused with more than 3 quarters of the general assembly voting and save the on the desk. and this is rails, you and, and basset to head all the before the vote that the resolution would only benefit a mass. but just a handful of countries joined israel and it's closest ally. the us in voting know, hasn't been adopted to day was a historic day in terms of the power for the message that was sent from the general assembly. and if there's a lot of good active duty to continue in this fast until we see and then to this aggression against our people. while the vote in new york demonstrates much of the world once in the end to the fighting. these riley government seems determined to press on. it is repeatedly ruled out ending military operations until all the
12:12 pm
hostages and calls that a fried and have mass. it's just mental that's despite thousands of palestinian casualties and the increasingly dia, humanitarian situation. but those trapped within the besieged territory these a trucks entering the southern city of rafa from egypt, a gauze is lifeline. but fall to few. i'm making it through. on tuesday, israel said it would facilitate more a deliveries by starting to check a trucks at the care. i'm shall long check point before the mass terrorist attacks on october 7th, most goods ended garza via this is really crossing. now israel says convoys will only be inspected, occur amish alone, and will still have to enter from egypt. journalist hasn't the lucia who used to
12:13 pm
live in and report from gaza explained to us earlier whether garzon, i think the world is on the side of to the vast majority of the un general assembly voted in favor of a ceasefire to uh, in dogs. uh they care about fast about, uh, the, the basic needs that they, uh they want at this level. second, they call for an immediate cease fire and said they, they, uh they complain and, and decides the whole word because they are not doing enough for them. whether helping them in this circumstances or pushing is will to stop the hostilities and they think they are a banded isolated and they left alone. this is the common thing that i hear from people, or the need to be poor across the goal is a stretch. of course,
12:14 pm
there are some, some efforts every day that when i'm talking to people they are on the os. me what, what, what's happening is there a sign or a ceasefire or something and people talking about um, but definitely they feel that they are offended and alone was generalist, hasn't pollution speaking to us earlier. now as israel's war against him, often goal is a continues the is ray, the military has designated on the was the that's a narrow strip of land and south gaza as a humanitarian zone. and it has directed thousands to relocate the but the area lacks the basic necessities shelter and was a, for thousands of desperate refugees. the streets of barren land, crammed with desperate gauze and seeking safety in us, mostly heated israel's coal to sleep. unless the in southern gaza, when her home was boned, she now lives with her children in
12:15 pm
a thin plastic tent. it is not place for us to wash your pre if you want to wash and get tons beautiful, nobody forgot. it is no way or we can bake or get bread that is from victory or supermarket. it's a complete and marked 80 a little. and that's and of the palestinians, and the last see, describe it as dangerously overcrowded and lacking in basic necessities like show medical services and food. but israel has described alas seat as a humanitarian zone, and issued orders for civilians to evacuate. the saying aid will arrive, we'd be making a game with everything we have our in our capabilities, every effort we can to facilitate the movement of civilians and the size in order to mitigate civilian casualties. we're doing everything we can to set the conditions for the humanitarian zone in the otherwise the coastline. the area
12:16 pm
makes up just a tiny fraction of the densely populated gaza strip. about 14 square, columbus is. israel has changed, the exact board is of the safe. so in several times, and some of the occupation orders have not mentioned last, see it all age groups of cold israel is offer of safety, a clean mirage inside the situation. and the last seat is dial, or you'll measure the top pocket people stacked on top of each other. we always do it without a toilet, still without a drop of water. so here you would absolutely have have side zones. the designs of disease would become greater than any sign projections onto it. so it's such a important narrative to, to break this idea that people can just go to sizes or anything. i wish there was absolutely nothing sites about these the gardens sheltering in and the last the say they've found no sense of safety. that while i'm waiting on like listening to the
12:17 pm
bombing, we're living between life and it at any moment, it may be our gun, and it keeps going to die as little as the united nations says move in. 85 percent of causes population has been displaced by the war. and that here in milwaukee, like everywhere and gaza, there is no way truly safe to go. let's take a look at some of the other headlines making news around the world today. and donald task has been sworn in is the new prime minister of poland, ending 8 years of populist rule. he has a pro european coalition government and his vowing to restore opponents position in the you. he also said he would urge the west to mobilize in support of ukraine. germany's rulings trade policy coalition government has reached a deal on the federal budget for 2024. now this follows weeks of negotiations after a court ruling through government,
12:18 pm
the finances into disarray. no details of the budgets are available yet, but a briefing is scheduled for later today. announcing tina's new economy minister has announced he's flashing the value of the country's currency by more than hoff the move is positive measures intended to ease the worst economic crisis in decades. argentina's new right when populist president have your email a has promised to drastically reduce public spending or ukraine's president load them. is lensky has met with political leaders in washington, dc, and a bid to get more support for his country's fight against russia. the white house says, current aid for ukraine will run out by the end of the year, as republicans in congress refused to release additional funds of the missing landscape. president biden warned republicans that they'd be giving russian leaders, let them in person a christmas gift. if they kept the withholding military aid,
12:19 pm
the food is banking on the united states failing to deliver for ukraine. we must, we must, we must prove him wrong. a strong warning from us president j biden directed straight to the united states congress, where republicans are blocking a $61000000000.00 defense package for you. right. thank you. mister president. standing beside him, ukrainian president for low dom is zalinski, said he had received positive signals from no makers about the possibility of more aid, but no results yet. and as us funding for ukraine is foster running out republicans digging the heels and republican speak up the house of representatives. mike johnson came out of an earlier meeting with zelinski unmoved . and so what the,
12:20 pm
by the ministration seems to be asking for is billions of additional dollars with no appropriate oversight, no clear strategy to win. and, and none of the answers that i think the american people, her own domestic politics is also guessing in the way republicans say they were in to proof of the financial support to ukraine, unless by degrees to tougher reforms, to reduce the immigration across the southern us. buddha, welcome back the u. s. president on the line to his backing of ukraine several times during zalinski show trip to dc. but without the supports of congress, he could only sent him home with the fraction of the funding he's hoping for. a spring and dw is ukraine, correspond to nick connelly who is in cave. hi, nick. before we get into what's happening in the us, can you tell us what's been happening in, in teams in ukraine because they were reports of a nice about messiah and striking the hospital as well. we will work out parents
12:21 pm
here at about 3 am local time to some very loud bangs and my case that was most probably the defense is being lost somewhere nearby. you could even hit every single missile being launched, much more clearly than normal, according seal thirty's, 10 ballistic missiles. those are the ones that fly really high and re fost that a very difficult to intercept were infected. and indians, those 5053 or so casualties went down to bits of debrief, holding down 20 of those people have been taken to hospital the others were given treatment in place. so this is more damage to us because you mentioned that it was such a residential buildings, but this could have been much, much worse. and about 6 months ago, ukraine just wouldn't have been technically in a position to accept those results. i think that is just an indication of quite how effective this weston help is that with russia throwing basically the best foss dismissal as it has at the grace capital, they just don't reach that targets. so would you probably, nina, defense is be affected if usa to pride in what should be sized out significantly.
12:22 pm
well, the thing is right now ukraine has enough air defense systems for key of maybe a few the other big cities. but this is a vast country more than a 1000 miles from east to west. they said, you know enough to go around different project, lots cities, especially how to keep it. that's the thing much was destruction and keep for instance, but it's also about the staff thoughts and about the munitions to keep the systems going, right. even if you're trying to order them on the open market, they're all waiting times of year. so basically, you and you hope your credit has is for these missiles, the intercept themselves to be delivered from us stokes directly rather than waiting for them to be produced and outside the us. there just isn't any other game in town. european countries have been supplying different systems, but none that can really intercept these kinds of very things, ballistic missiles in a way that the american system scans. okay. now the, the ukranian counter offensive against russia hasn't gone the way most had hoped or expected. how is the ukrainian government right now planning to win this for a lovely the same as the saying goes,
12:23 pm
that victory has lots of parents and defeat. so a lack of success, new and most takes flexibility for and there is a line coming out of t if that's basically the summer offensive. didn't work as expected because the ukrainians were forced to follow nature tactic as given to them, as kind of proposed them by the american advisors. sending lots of tanks into one small area where the rushing drones could see them. and we sort of see if the loss is at the beginning, before they change tank of those western systems at the tanks of the almond vehicles. then now trying to spread themselves bit more thinly, send people in on foot, trying to take the russians by surprise from that kind of less obvious points. not trying to storm the kind of well defined lines and hope that eventually they grind those russian logistics down that we use may come landscape. thanks so much. next. a brussel this hosting the lead is a 6 western bulk of nations today just to discuss the prospect of european union
12:24 pm
membership among them all costs of o and serbia. his strange relations have been a stumbling block and have already taken up 10 years of negotiations with the you. the conflict over cost of what was independence is the rest of the kinds longer running flash point for serbian comfortable. however, it is also a stumbling block on that pause to the european union. well, solving the conflict of course, would be very important for both countries because of course, without a normalization process, there will be no you membership for either of the 2 countries. so for either serbia were possible cost so well you need to let to really declare it's independence from serbia in 2008. salvia does not recognize this ethnic albanians comprise the majority of cost of those roughly 1800000 people. syrups called the majority in northern crossover,

and remain lodge the lawyers to bad. great of more than 10 years of you, lead talks between beg, right, and christina, an agreement in principle, was reached at the beginning of the year. since then. implementation has stalled. there is very little movement, quite to the contrary. we are facing costs, hopefully some crises that pops up, especially in north of kosovo. and this is the other spot because we are trying and the only ones who are paying the price for each. i don't know people in brussels, i'm not peopling the members things, but ordinary people in coastal, any sort of yep. tensions have recently intensified again this year. the northern region, of course, of all experience, some of the verse violin seen since the declaration of independence, the crime exposed to reach in september, been around 30 serbian government slashed with cause of all police in the village up on sca leaving one policeman and 3 gunmen that the you condemned this and called
12:26 pm
for justice and accountability 1st meeting of one of which things the incident changes the dynamic of the normalization process. so i think it's really more important than ever to work on on bringing those 2 parties closer to the negotiating table. because without negotiations, we run the risk of further escalation. she thinks the you should put pressure on savvy a, to conduct an independent investigation. and on both parties to implement the agreement before the elections next summer. the topic is not officially on the agenda of a meeting between rest and ball come into you lead us. but it's likely to cost that shadow of what the discussions it's going to take you to the us now went to rescued backups from alaska, cooling the oregon to the new home timber i'm stolen all from backups. and then a tribute to portland's love for soccer. the siblings have been named off to,
