tv The Day Deutsche Welle December 14, 2023 1:02am-1:31am CET
1:02 am
is out fossil fuels and the ends delegates of the dubai climate talks decided to transition away. well, as you can imagine, many cop 20, i think today's deal doesn't go far enough, but still it is a deal. some say a historic bill for the 1st time the world has agreed to end the oil age. eventually, i'm feel go in balance, and this is the day the to get them. we have confronted the entities. and we have said that was that i stated that extra for the very 1st time and a con fossil fuels have been on the table. this is a balance that goes emissions on 28th elizabeth area drive. it is
1:03 am
a plot that is led by the science pop, a few words, nickel holds up to also coming up, keeping the cash flowing to ukraine. kind of allow them is that landscape still count on gold will on weapons from europe and the united states. the food is banking on the united states. failing to deliver for ukraine, we must, we must, we must prove him wrong. welcome to the day we begin with the dramatic conclusion often un climate talks into by talks of 24 hours ago appear to be heading for failure comp. 28th is it's called, was forced into over time and look to be in trouble of a deep divisions on the future of fossil fuels. delegates rejected the 1st draft of the text, but after intensive negotiations. under reworking the 2nd draft was unanimously
1:04 am
approved hitting no objection. it is so decided that for you have the land of dealing with life against global warming, with nearly 200 countries signing up to the declaration. that'd be great with nearly came on stuff because of the wording on fossil fuels more than a 100 countries wanted officious language. quoting for a desperate phase out of coal, oil and gas after meeting resistance making from oil, producing nations, i trash, dr. compromise the final deal costs for a transitioning away from fossil fuels in energy systems and adjust orderly and equitable manner. accelerating auction in this critical decade, so as to achieve net 0 by 2050. some say the deal marks the beginning of the end for fossil fuels given the make up for this one over 95 nation
1:05 am
entity. it is pretty clear that it was more than a state klein and you know, we hardly expected certain countries jobs they. oh yeah, we're just going to turn around and do that immediately. but they did sign on and they are transitioning confidence busy get this climate conference, the fact the seals, the end of the fossil age, which i understand you don't mind it. every part of the text is as clear and binding as the europeans had hopeful. but in the, in the climate conferences, you need a unanimous decision. despite my confidence some ice cream is guide. what a jo results are from the multiple paths to obtain the goal of limiting warming to $1.00 degrees celsius to do so in a manner consistent with the priorities and circumstances of each nation to achieve sustainable development. so a lot of box laughing among national delegates, but the reaction has an old and positive the alliance of small island states when
1:06 am
it risk for rising sea levels. type a dale full show and is full of new pulse and some actively scripts and n g o is accused of submissive caving into the oil and gas lobby is a representative from. i think that again, we try to warm the world, the conflict of interest, the precise over this comp and the bustle, fuel lobby, seen this house, the stakes smells like oil and like gas. the outcomes of this cup are proof that you are sell outs. you are sell outs to corporate interest, shame, research ship as a professor of development job to fit the university of bomb. she spent the decades research and climate change and the social impact on the world. a welcome to a d. w professor. what do you make of this wording transitioning away from fossil fuels rather than by using the mouse? so i think we have to start with the fact that fossil fuels is in there,
1:07 am
which is not something that we've seen before. it's about that a tough is that they breakthrough, but of course, transitioning way suggests that it can be done in many different ways. it can be done in a very long time and it doesn't necessarily mean that we're ending the use of fossil fuels. and so therefore, and the some phasing out there's an end and, and sites there. so there's, there is a big difference certainly. and i think i will decide to president for, you know, to the extent to which a countries and companies will take this seriously. i had um, so i'm from tongue. uh oh you said a saying, but this is full of loopholes and it does nothing for what it is that if activity in an existential crisis of countries in the pacific and it's a balance to be struck, is may i because we have 70 percent. and so the remaining of fossil fuels in the global south, much of which hasn't been used and transitioning away, allows them to continue to use it and develop economically even though it is to the
1:08 am
detriment of the planets. yeah, precisely. you uh, there were a few days ago, there was a press conference for the african group where they also made the same kind of comments that in fact, from their perspective, if they don't have the opportunities to use fossil fuels. and that is, i think they said something like that and you know, the end of their breath and they, they can no longer breathe, they need that for the development. and so we do have to keep that in mind. there are many different at the many different levels of development, and there are many different needs here. but the emphasis is, of course, ideally on the countries and that the company for the, the most fossil fuels are being used. and, but it's hard to make that distinction between those 2 kinds of situations. so what does face deal then do for countries like uh, tongue, countries like them all these older size shells by whom this crisis is actually sten. sho, that's right. okay. so and i think that the,
1:09 am
the comment from twotango was that also the wording that action we have kind of the content in there maybe, but the words that refers to the action is moved and, and very vague. and so we have, i would say the wins here were the successes were already very early on in the conference where the lawson damage fund has agreed. and countries have put money in as including germany, united arab emirates. but it's a drop in the bucket. and i think there was an increasing disappointment as a conference continued, that there weren't more large offers of money being put into this. and these were forthcoming. and i think we do have a framework on the global going out of taishan that is supposed to measure whether progress is being made on medication. but here again, the financing is missing. this is the key thing. so i think put this on for countries i tongue gone for many of these, these countries. absolutely. where is the money that is the big,
1:10 am
the big thing invest in the question for, for years now. but on the other hand, we also have to keep in mind that money isn't going to do everything because there are limits to how much adaptation can do. and we know through the science that after 1.5 degrees of average warming, there are certain places where application will no longer work, certain kinds of adaptations, we no longer work. so we also need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. so, you know, it's, it's, you can port a lot of money into adaptation and, and loss and damage. but they never really going to make up for the fact that we still need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. right? so frankly speaking, if it's too late for countries like tomba, the movies, and those of indian ocean countries, essentially nothing can be done quick enough to say to yeah, i think the key issue is really this time of the time frame, the window of opportunity to actually take action in the intergovernmental panel, climate change phrase this around that the window of opportunity is rapidly closing
1:11 am
. if he wants to secure a livable and sustainable future for all. and those 2 words are the ones that i keep repeating because this isn't, you know, if we keep dragging out or, or dragging our fees and dragging out the time than that for all means that we, we, we lose people and we, it's deliberate choice as well. when we, when we don't take the action that we need to take. so i wouldn't want to say that it's too late just because we'd have to keep fighting. there isn't any, any, you know, but there's, if it might be, for example, too late to stay other 1.5, but there's 1.6 after that, or even 1.51, you know, so we need to keep finding to, to try to keep that warming to the minimum possible. so um, i wouldn't wanna suggest that, you know, just because we're feeling like we're failing here that we do not. absolutely not. we'll have to keep fighting to make sure that, that, you know, if you have some kind of climate resilience development for people in the future. yeah, you mentioned that you and your 1st answer that you were glad that the, the actual a phrase fossil fuels was that was that sweet?
1:12 am
that in the declaration, much has been made of holding these that climate talks in an oil producing country in an oil producing region and the big oil sabotage. they steal as i think somebody said we'd might not know that until later. but of course, old page has always played a very a big role and always played a big the big hurdle in all of the negotiations of the early negotiations where we started to talk a bit about the adverse effects of climate change impacts many years ago. we're also kind of tied together with a discussion around the impact of response measures that is the adverse impact, particularly on countries. opec countries, when we start reducing our fossil fuel use. so those that sort of always nice to somehow intertwine these things to prevent that, that really effective deal from, from being in place. so i don't think there's anybody
1:13 am
a surprise. i'm not sure if we can at this point yet, say that the fact that the presidents was from an oil producing country that that was a big problem. but certainly opec was very nervous about about to do and probably had huge influence. also. thank you for that. good. talking to professor lisa shipping from the university of bong. thank you so much for team is who tim remains determined to bring ukraine to its knees militarily and he is assessing that international support for ukraine will wayne. so that will cutting enough list the sped, i will advocate sustainable, reliable financial support for ukraine in the coming years for the because it's about the security of europe. oh, well that was, did you have a chance to show? so once again, placing support or ukraine and key of needs are reassurance as west and money in west of weapons. start running low budget crisis in germany. it's complicated. it
1:14 am
commitment to funding you, trying to fight against russia based as another battleship russian miss. i was talking to be craig new capital today. unfortunately wounding dozens of people to him and made and defend systems are increasingly vital to protecting ukrainian cities. and the german chancellor is adamant that weapons deliveries will continue . as we had a chance to assure also sometimes to push for sustainable long term support for your pride at a, somebody to if you need is in brussels next week. the current president for the 9th grade he's expected to attend those 12 sassy prices west and allies for more military assistance. tuesday on tuesday, he was in washington having to unblock $61000000000.00 in funding, being held up in congress both. but he and us president a job i'm one of the weakening of international will, would only benefit russia is very important that by the end of this year,
1:15 am
we can send where a strong signal of our unity to the dresser, and the unity of you green america you are the entire free world. without supplemental funding, we're rapidly coming to an end of our ability to help you create and respond to the urgent operational demands that it has put and is banking on the united states failing to deliver or ukraine. we must, we must, we must prove him wrong. let's, let's go through this time with that, and they're in the middle on who's on military, almost a king's college, and onto the welcome back to date w i, maureen, i, how desperately does new cry needs extra funding and support for me. it's outright in a good evening till i think, and at this moment the ukraine needed more than ever because so you korean mil latrice running out for delivery shelves and i'm referring to 155 millimeter
1:16 am
artillery shells. it also needs heavier equipment such as tang, it needs air color obviously. so the plastics feelings at least um needs more missiles if needs more air defenses. and now we're seeing after the counter offensive after the printing and counter offensive, which didn't p o, the expected results. the russians are continuing to as offensive. busy operations around of the guy around kansas. so ukraine needs, at least to be able to hold to russian progress on the battle of the old. and so western a, the us aid and the 8 from europe is critical at the moment. right? do we need to, to tease out some of those reasons? i appreciate you talked about a new kind being in need of shelves and tags. lots of those have already been probably savvy about that seems to be less a money issue than a supply issue that you're comp seemed to manufacture them quickly enough. that
1:17 am
is, that is absolutely correct. because right now, um the new york in countries have understood what the exigency is, are for in ukraine are. and this, the, this rest was the defense manufacturer. it's because the global supply chain is very well, a tiled right now. and in order that the manufacturer tanks, so we have to get materials. we'll have to get steal, will have to get aluminum, would have to get less young and shell, remember is that russia is a huge supplier of steel. so those components, those are all materials, arise in price making them more expensive to procure, taking longer a time to arrive. therefore, in order to manufacture those things that ukraine needs and it will take time. and therefore, this is the time that you bring thousands have and there in lies the problem. and so how big a problem is that time ukraine hold, it's uh,
1:18 am
current positions. we've asked a change in the supply lives. it will literally defend it's very difficult to predict the future and what might happen on the battlefield in military terms. and of course, the politics will also influence that, however, it doesn't look very promising for ukraine, especially as, as i said, as the russians are deploying again, the wagner troops are all moved to they are trying to push and to get ahold of, of the, of what was living in regards the russian casualties and that is a problem because the brain also has a mobilization potential issue as well. so manpower is also scars in ukraine and how long it can hold on without any provisions or was looking provisions remains to be seen. but in the future is not very promising. so a closer look at those figures. maybe we had today from us intelligence that the
1:19 am
who were claiming 315000 russians. i've been killed and wounded since the stats of this invasion 22 months ago. which sounds like a very high human cost to those figures sound about right to, to well, i was very surprised about this release because we have to understand why is it being released now and who is a target audience of these figures? what i'm trying to say is the losses um on the russian side has been colossal. however, there were other estimates also on coming from the us from may 23 which were estimating 50000. these estimates coincided with some other estimates made by the likes of medias. own and therefore i cannot imagine how since then the number would have grown 230-0000 because we're talking about 67 months. and during these months, the russians have not conducted any serious large scale offensive operation. so it
1:20 am
seems like the estimate is over stated, right? so we presume. so that's an overstatement then because my, my next question is why is russia losing so many truth but it sounds like, well, you called me the answer that because with the, the actual numbers. so funky to yes, absolutely. i think um, the release of that statement is somehow to demoralize the russians, maybe those who will be reading this. because i think again this, this figure is not accurate. and we would need to completely to compare figures from different sources due to gaps and more or less accurate estimate. that being said, what this report has sad that it's almost the, the military strength that the russians have pre invasion, indicating something about the rushes, future military capability. and the, i just wanted to caution that those figures um the quantitative data is not the
1:21 am
only the determining factor for russia's military capability. so we have to be careful one entered into interpreting those numbers. yes, i. so how do you interpret those numbers and looking forward with, with severe last is all right, we can, we can be completely accurate about them. but the implication from this intelligence was that the modernization of rushes military has been set back, something like a 15 years. and what, what do you think as well as things are, these are just 2 factors. and i think we cannot really predict rushes military capability is based on those 2 estimates. we'll still have to remember that even conservative estimates say that russia can produce up to $500.00 thanks of various types a year, which is more than the grass can produce currently. so even taking in, in, in, in numbers roster retains still
1:22 am
a huge capability. the problem as long tangible factors such as leadership, morales, command and control logistics, corruption and russia has all those problems. and so in order to be able to predict how russia will behave militarily, we need the experts from different disciplines. combining all those findings in order to get an idea and even them, it depends also in which scenario who will be the enemy? i were talking about the russians, possibly in, in the high north, in the arctic. i was talking about them in ukraine. i was talking about them and syria. so i think we have to be very careful when looking at those numbers and as those conclusions and estimates because context matters. and of course, the policy matters and the strategy and how russia will use its military power to achieve whatever political objective it will have understood, unclear as ever. thank you so much for welcome, mister. that's a marina, a minimum from king's color, something. thank you. thank you. for having me have
1:23 am
you it says almost half of guns this population is and has not moved to the city of rafa in the south. it's one of the people that are facing bombardments, deprivation and disease in an ever more confined space. just by growing closer, faced by israel says they will push on, but it's offensive games time us, which is why they consist of a terrorist organization. winters bearing down on rough or the city at the furthest edge of southern gaza bordering egypt. with the border closed. it's the farthest people can flee. the destination for display, scoggins, hoping to escape bombardment. shelters are overcrowded. almost half of guys this population is now in rafa, which is the small part of guys in the southeast corner.
1:24 am
again, this is leading to nothing but a health crisis. rainfall mixed and already dire situation worse. many makes you have tens can't hold up for long against the wind and rain water. yes, mean a displace posted in mother says she lacks access to basic necessities. and the minimum i woke up to my 7 month old child who was soaking wet in our house has been destroyed. my other child was murdered. i don't have any blankets or mattresses. i took some from my sister. we just have one blanket between 5 of us. there's no covers no mattresses, no food, no water. life is difficult with myself, say about humanitarian relief is fairly reaching ordinary people like yes mean, despite their proximity to the only crossing that allows a into the gallons a strip. israel's military, which is also carrying out strikes on targets and rough uh,
1:25 am
blames him us for the lack of access. unfortunately, it's not, these really started with the preventing it, but rather what we're seeing this morning, right, is that from us on the opening, the, the was thing inside of rough or not facilitating excess of which i'm gonna terminate itself. so brain, me to ask ourselves again wise from us preventing humanitarian a fall, b u. n. general assembly has called for humanitarian sees fire. people in rafa are pessimistic. l 27 model for the odd. and no, it is real as well known for ignoring un an international resolutions when i consider there's itself above the law, but enough separately because of that, i don't think it will accept any resolution, especially with winter, just setting in many fear, the hardship and danger that lie ahead. stephen ryan is with the international red cross committee in gaza and he described conditions in rafa. was just over 10
1:26 am
days ago, i asked by one sized one location the not far from where i could to, nor based. and i saw that there was a couple of talking tens i taught by one week later a few days ago. and the. ready hundreds, if not more, certainly tens of thousands or hundreds and thousands of people are on the move here in gaza. and many of those people actually won't even, but they're able to carry funds in that situation like apps. some very basic items become the most valuable. a mattress, a blankets, maybe a negroes supply of foods and when they arrive to the place and they're already very, very crowded. there's not enough. i need some occasion facilities. people have to queue for. ready long time to water and nobody knows what you know is going to bring, certainly things that there's efforts to bring in more assistance in regards to this. this is a positive development. one of the things that we're deeply concerned about, the ability to meet the growing needs that are going by the hour and to be able to
1:27 am
reach people who are not in raffle. certainly there are i so many more people civilians who are protected homes, internationally manager know who are outside of alpha. and we also need to make sure that international organizations, such as the international community, direct costs and any other to be able to work here, are able to provide assistance to these people in say to and what i can continue after next, training difficult. steve ryan, from the international red cross committee and that's it's that it is done. you can all of us on social media platforms. ok, dw news from united states that headlines is over a spring dw ask, or d, w dot com, have a good the
1:28 am
into the conflicts own. with tim, sebastian, i guess from valley in is that it sounds like w director of the economy, the russia, your agent center for now rush is economy has stabilized and mr. pretend incisive on war crimes charges is none. the less finding plenty of friends, so well as new found confidence symptom into a bigger role with ukraine. i've even a fight with major conflict. next, on d, w. one small step for
1:29 am
a robot vacuum. one giant leap for exploiting the ocean floor. but this time, a research team will study the possible risk 1st. in order to minimize them. we have an opportunity to get it right before we even start. is this true nature conservation, or only green washing? deep sea green. in forty's, 5 minutes on d, w. the how many platforms can you handle single, attain usually without having the feeling that it's just too much it might seem easy. how much can we do simultaneously?
1:30 am
multitasking these, the modern because if we do too much, we paid it all wrong. we messed things up. risking brain damage. so let's stop this self sabotage, humans and multitasking watch. now on youtube, v. w documentary, the slow crew come fix, and ukraine will soon head into its 3rd year with the pressure on care to advance on the battlefield and re energized support in the west. my guess from belin is alexander w, director of the con, the russia you raises center. the bad news is that, unfortunately, the support for your trade in the west or public is going down for now. russia's economy has stabilized and mr. pretend incisive on war crimes charges is none. the less finding plenty of friends to talk to. i'm.
