. i'm sarah kelly. welcome to the program. we begin with some breaking news in japan has landed in on manned space craft on the moon as it tries to join an elite club of only 4 other nations that have pulled off a successful landing on the lunar surface. japan space agency says that it is still checking the status of the lender, which touch down less than an hour ago. the smart lender for investigating moon or slim, as it's called, the mission was intended to pull off the 1st precision landing on earth's closest neighbor. several recent flights to the moon has ended in failure. same time elsewhere. the war in gaza where israel is pressing on with operations in the south, in defiance of calls from the united states to scale back as defensive. prime

minister benjamin netanyahu has again insisted that israel will not stop the fighting in garza until it has destroyed him off, which several countries classify as a terrorist organization. then yahoo also rejected calls by the west to plan for a future palestinian state. once the war is over, as the fighting and gaza reduced on israel's increasingly at odds with its closest ally, the war in gaza is still backed by the united states. but the intensity of operations has come under us scrutiny. israel says it won't cave to american pressure prime minister benjamin netanyahu stresses israel one scale back and appear to reject the idea of creating a palestinian state. the whole in any arrangement. whether there was an accord or not. these ready states must have security control of the old,

whichever tree west of the jordan river is a necessary condition. but that cautious with the principle of palestinian sovereignty. it doesn't matter what can i say? i've told our american friends this truth. i've also stopped this, the attempt to impose a reality on those that would hom is where it was security and it's ready. prime minister should be able to say no, even to our best friends know when necessary. yes, when possible. and what the us has reiterated palestinian statehood is the only path to lasting piece. and this will be we do believe that this conflict is all conflicts. the will end at some point and that there needs to be a political path forward for the establishment of the policy. and you'd say that is the only way, not just to answer the legitimate hopes, dreams, aspirations of policy and people. but it is also, and this is critical the only way to provide the last thing security for the is really people. and it's not just the us trying to push the israeli government in a different direction until the protesters accuse the government of pursuing

aggressive policies. we ask for, is it bring people to live in the jewish people in the city and people these many fear and out, right? rejection of palestinian statehood. now we're only worse and regional tensions, and trap israel and, and less conflict. earlier t w's. the senior business reporter news pon die spoke with in bremmer, the director of the think tank eraser group at the world economic forum in davos. and found out what he thinks of the as rarely prime ministers rejection of a palestinian state. i think the other, almost any other plausible leader of israel would be more in favor of a 2 state solution. but that doesn't mean that they would be more in favor of ending the war as of getting to a 2 state solution is a different story. remember,

since october 7th, the entire is rarely population has wrongly wanted to remove a moss from the map. and, and they the mean, this is traumatized men and a lot of the people that were killed and tortured and raped. i mean, these are some of the, they were at a dance festival. the raven is the most progressive part of his really, society is the people that most one of the 2 state solution in peace. now they're the ones that are going out and saying, we've got to destroy him, us. so, i mean, the war cabinet has enormous support in terms of the fighting, even though the prime minister is incredibly unpopular among these really people in they want them out. oh, how much influence does the us have always read right now and how much pressure are they actually putting on it and yahoo change course. there's certainly putting pressure on israel to change course. they want israel up to accept the 2 state solution. they want israel and they haven't called for a permanent ceasefire,

but they certainly have called for much more humanitarian aid to come in. it's certainly called for far fewer civilians to get caught up in the mass that the israelis are, you know, in, in the bombing campaign. and it's having no impact. uh and, and, you know, by doesn't like, not. yeah. who doesn't trust them. you may remember that when uh, obama and barton were pushing the iranian nuclear deal to the jcp a way not in yahoo flew to washington and gave a speech to congress publicly undermining biden and obama. so i mean, the relationship has very, very little trust to it. and even though biden went to israel right after october, 7th, and publicly, physically embraced the is really leadership. the fact is that his ability to really move whatnot, yahoo is doing is very, very small. so what i really biden's options now as far as the conflict is concerned. well, i mean, in principle, the americans could say that they're going to cut or condition military support on the basis of what these rallies do and don't do. i don't see that happening. i

think especially in election year, he would get punished very heavily from the right from doing so who some of them are already saying he's too soft on israel and, and, and that's not true. but that's none. the less a dangerous thing for him. having said that, one thing that he can do is work more strongly with the gulf states to try to help ensure that there is support for security on the ground and gaza. that isn't the permanent is rarely occupation. and there's also funding to reconstruct a place for the pat a city is to live because, i mean nobody wants them to leave gaza, but they can't stay with the wait. gaza presently is. so what are you going to do? i mean, you can add, you can talk all you want about the 2 state solution, but unless you have the ability to live and defend yourself and govern yourselves business state, you mentioned that they are pretty much on board with the 2 state solution. washington now would be really invest in how much can to invest,

especially in an election year. in this solution. there's no 2 state solution that's going to be happening this year. that's very clear. what they can invest in doing is getting the other countries in the region and especially golf leadership, some of whom are part of the abraham accords and already have breakthrough relations with israel. and saudi arabia. who would still like to normalize relations with israel, but not unless this concrete movement towards a 2 state solution. so that's the leverage. the americans have the us, the most powerful country in the world, the saudis, the moratti's, they have the best defense relationship secure to really, to with the united states. so if anyone is going to get anything done here, that's a breakthrough. the americans are gonna have to show some leadership and that was in grammar speaking at the world economic forum in davos about the situation. in the middle east, we're going to turn now to some other headlines from around the world. humans who the rebels have launched a fresh missile attack on an american, on a ship in the red sea. no damage or injuries were reported. the around back to

militia has been targeting shipping and the waterways since november, saying it's acting in solidarity with the palestinians. germany's parliament has voted to ease citizenship rules law makers, back to the government's plans to make my friends eligible to become german faster and keep their previous citizenship as well. the reforms are intended to boost integration and attract more skilled workers to jeremy's rapidly aging workforce. a square footage from north korea shows 2 teenagers being sentenced to 12 years hard labor for watching television dramas from south korea. the 16 year old boys were sentenced in front of hundreds of students entertainment from south korea, including popular tv shows, now known as k dramas. is banned in the north. a police report says that for sales former far right president adipose denado had forged

a cobit 19 vaccinations certificate. officers found evidence that both sonata knew about the fraudulent entries in health ministry vaccination records. they say that he and his inner circle were able to dodge pandemic restrictions in russia. more than a 1000 people have joined protest over the arrest of an activist and prominent kremlin critic. demonstrations have taken place in the semi autonomous republic of last quarter's done, which has seen a high number of casualties in ukraine. police detained file all us enough who had publicly criticized moscow's mobilization drive for the war. and dw 0, the shadow has more from the lot fee and capital rica where our moscow bureau moved after it was shut down by the russian authorities as well. according to media

reports era, at least 2000 people, gas out in sullivan, 2 lives clear in fozzy capital of the pass code post on the republic of russia. it's all about your life was a basket of poet and national hero and a fight for the rights of the countries indigenous people. the protesters today tribes with old 0 looks a few. it is not to provoke the police in any way. for example, not even to show that they came to the protest because it's dangerous and russia instead of a came up with, let's say, creative drink such as taking each of those hands and dancing around, trying not to gauze that in one place and working from side to side at the beginning, as the extra police of the extra police officers selectively checked people's documents and to form to them of responsibility for legal action. what do i say? and when they all ask the people why that was the protest, it sounds that they just came to look at the monuments to sell a bunch of life. but that didn't work for a long soon after they actually began special police called on long

a p at at least they began point by point extensions, at least 10 people who are detained and they're always so far. so these are a regional approach, as we've highlighted their yard, it doesn't mean anything for, you know, more broad politics and russia and for pollutants grip on power to yes, of course, i mean, presidential elections will be a housing process in 2 months time and flooding improved and wants to be re elected to, with an overwhelming majority. so he's, popularity is very important to him right now. of course, these are not the protests in most coal, whereas a could be particularly adventurous for the kremlin not as they protested directly against fulton. but the fact is that so many people are still taking to the streets and put in special despite the risk of being arrested and imprisoned for many years . this fact is remarkable. also, there is another aspect that makes it more complicated, which is the nationality issue. because it's not of the asinique russians who are

taken to the streets had, but the best is called vist whitfield dominated by that options as a bus called left on national minorities and other publics also feels that a russian donation sometimes gets created patient so they remain silent and tolerate this, they are asleep so to speak, but only as long as moscow is a strong c, w use rica, bureau chief uri with shadow. thank you. the united states and it's western allies are looking at possible new sources of funding for the war and ukraine that could involve seizing some $300000000000.00 and russian assets frozen by the west. after the invasion, the bite and administration is exploring the idea. as future us funding is caught up in a budget dispute in congress. russia has warned it would retaliate by confiscating western assets. several weeks of to these images announced russia's invasion of ukraine to the world. the us and the you retaliated by

freezing around $300000000000.00 worth of russian state assets. but nearly 2 years on and with no engine site to the war, washington and its allies. and i'm talking about taking the more radical step of not just freezing the russian assets, but confiscating them kids is keen for this to happen. to move in to 2024, one of the key tasks is redirecting the frozen assets of the russian federation in the west towards ukrainian recovery and see the united states the european union and other countries have come closer to resolving this issue. so with the ukranian president brought to mr. lensky has been pushing for this for a while as a way of punishing russia and also financing the will. if it is a time when result seems to be fracturing in some places, i will begin. ok,

but most go say it's a us and its allies go ahead. it will respond by seizing weston assets and has already drawn out a list. a spokesman for the kremlin also said such a move would not just violate international law, but on the mind of the nations by casting doubts, the in viability of property trim. you know, general no, such a theory can be legal. it can only be pseudo legal, and most importantly, it will be a significant blow to the foundations of the international economy. but as a walgreens on, suppose, if the scheme say seizing such a large sum of russian money could change the course of the conflict by strengthening keeps position. not just any tools, but also on the battlefield. we're going to head to india now where

hindus are gathering for the opening up a new temple built on the site of an ancient mosque, torn down by supporters of prime minister to render moody's hindu nationalist. b. j . p. party state of view of correspondent idea. but has been to the northern city of the adult, to speak with both hindus and muslims. a religious divide means the faithful on one side are celebrating while those on the other fuel left out. the thousands of people who do all these make their way to the pump temporally. know what the the city is brimming with. the excitement head office in operation. 6 c the one is the, it feels like devali. i'm ecstatic, unhappy, and feel like dancing. i feel like taking load rom in my arms and roaming around the place where in the somebody raises occasion for all hindus to come together.

the construction of the rome temple is the beginning of the hindu nation. it'll bring all hindus together, but in the selection, you're just mix up politics and religion is, was up of all the what town flags up the routing 40 select to the long side image of the candidate, the wrong the messages this new temple is a gift from the voting fucking the pgp, e s, and the majority is grand gesture is matched by smaller, local campaigns, local be the problem, interior and loosing and his party workers are busy cleaning all the temple grounds food. i'm doing the prime minister, monique is government wants have done all the for you with the to 40 line. he explains that every house the now your j is a temple that we need to believe in this year. the project is central to move these

re election bid is these levels and can do so the majority in this country, it is their culture that will prevail and almost and it, demolishing the mosque was the right thing to do on it. it brought to an end, a debatable that had been ongoing for 500 years. the site has been a source of tension between hindus and muslims for decades. 1992 in the fund, i meant the list to down the 16th century, most known as the buffering must it be said. it was basically mostly rulers, on the ruins of the rump temple, which they believe to be the birthplace of the candle guard. spock writing to of the country all, most of the people in the field, the 16 in white been dismissed with neighbors to people who witnessed those events still be at the most in scott's college. gone with the fios,

the upcoming rallies around the north region clicked on one of your guys, i'll see sometimes when you are deeply hurt, you know, and to speak, no cry. i don't, we've not come out of that situation about the pain and trauma of demolition. double fire, honestly speaking, there was no one to protect us or give justice to us. and this feeling has been there since december 1992. until today if we before, hip hop on with us. okay. for the don't these web calendar on the least cool evening, just celebration as a pre owned or not about politics. the lights up the city give out sweets and rejoice. events next week promised to be even grand, but with the temples to him under construction. could see movies resting on with the temper is calling about the upcoming election. and earlier i spoke with

dw corresponded idea about 10 delhi. i began by asking him why prime minister moody is inaugurating a half finished temple. so sarah, we have to understand but you know, grating on constructive temple just 2 or 3 months before elections. premise of worthy is aiming to capitalize on the public sentiment on this issue of putting the rom temple also. uh, it has been an old problem is up to spotty and he somehow realized that it's the right moment to read the benefits of the fit. and at the same time, kind of projecting himself as the leader of the team to meet you all righty. so for pgp, the information is at the central, at the re election campaign. but what's interesting is that there is a position from fusion, the priest, who believe that nob ration no good. so we can see nobody. the honestly sample is

again, is the really descript chose a. he's also a movie, has been visiting temples across the country, particularly in the south and taking part in religious ceremonies. so what's the idea behind that? so if we look at this politics in india, temples have played an important role and that's what we have with basically as well. so brian, this movies temple with x in southern states isn't continuity to the can no reason, no problem gambling i oh, yeah. so this for me or like experts say also is clearly about mobilizing what to is in southern states. why the pgp has a we cool, totally unlike you know, in the, in the speaking uh, not the about what the b, b has pollution itself pretty strongly. so the idea behind the these temple wizard is to appeal to the relative sentiments of the people who are political teams. and these days what's happening be a movie has gone over to listing. so the reports,

the keys on the 11th day is false and sleeping on the floor as a part of the migration preparation. where does india is political opposition stand on all of this? so i think the operation actually took some time. it took his time to clear up the stand on this issue. so they will, they were actually and died in law as it always being kind of say, create an, a contentious issue. so it was more, i think recently that opposition called the the political cubic being. but because it will be because of these are pci dining up in operation based at the age of these using rom temple, 40 percent of total benefits in the upcoming collection. so they decided to wake up in operation and most of all push and set the residents of both little motto, which means that they are dispensing themselves for the politically politicize ation of religion. so now the less we have still to see how this plays out to reach up basically to how we can best age political buffy. and the question that remains

really a portion of dispensing from rom temple in organization will need the waters and that will state w correspondence that they have bought in daily. germany has said good bye to a footballing legend known to many simply as the kaiser or the emperor funds back in bower died earlier this month. at the age of 78. a memorial service was held at the stadium of byron munich, the club where he won 3 european cups in the 1970s. second bower stature was such that german president found father stein meyer. the keynote speech calling him one of the great germans service was attended by over 50000 people, including ex players. current players, fans, and dignitaries, including chancellor or left shots. sports correspondent tom deny is at the city in munich where that memorial took place. so was it a fit in goodbye. so that's in the yeah. think so. you know,

as far as i'm qualified to, to say whether or not it was fitting, it was certainly a very momentous occasion. i think the participation of so many dignitaries in former teammates, contemporaries of friends, beckoned by what no success is in the world of football. is of course evidence of the esteem in which he is how not just here in munich, but what around gemini? now i aust, one of his contemporaries p. l. bosky, who won the world cup with gemini in 1990 as a play, a win from spect. invalid was a coach. what he thought about the event and what friends speaking about himself, my store, and he told me that while mister beck and belle, it probably wouldn't have approved if such a fuss being made over him. certainly mpi the boss. these viewed the fact that so many people were brought together in his memory made today's event a success. despite all the adulation that was obviously scandal toward the end of his life with the 2006 world cup controversy, where there were allegations of corruption was that mentioned at all,

was that address that was mentioned. it was addressed, in fact, a featured fatty permanent, the in the speech of bi ends, current on the very president would be homeless. but he drew attention to the fact that the stadium that we're spending in is also part of the legacy of the 2000. and 6 woke up here in germany. and when he did that, he got a very loud shift from the spectators who were present the research back and spoke about how hard friends bitten by a worked to bring that tournament, hate to gemini. and we'll say one of the funds i spoke to before the event today was keen to emphasize what, what fantastic legacy is or friends bitten by, was to have had the tournament here in germany, in the 1st place. here's what he told me ahead of the event. my eyes, it's not fair. and i think i in the time after the inspect and we will think about the good things and what you did for the job and sports and especially for football and for munich. this will last forever,

but it was not fair because it's, it's part of the game. everybody knows it, but all the people of finger pointing that on the off he will absolutely be remembered as the only one who brought playing football to a totally new level. yeah, is he just all totally dominated on the pitch? i don't think they'll ever be a player like in the living and it's spend all these notes. we me a game media tom, just briefly it around that out. how will back and bobby remembered. well, the kaiser um, of course it says quite a lot, but you can see on the podium behind the speed of player ties, the emperor meant human. his legacy is of course, about so much more than what he did on the page. it's a massive one in terms of his achievements with jim and football. certainly he'll go down as one of the sports greatest icons here in this country. tom goodoy in munich, thank you. as of next to the point asks whether western air strikes can succeed in

halting attacks by him into the rebels on shipping in the red sea. do stay with us if you can for that. i'm sarah kelly and roland. thank you so much for watching. take care the

to the point. strong opinions, clear position, international perspective the american and british forces got it out in human, in response to the who the attacks on commotion, ships, insult, etc. on to the point we are discussing for the attacks on global truth in the middle east conflict escalated to the point, the next

d w. how do you create a truly south african fashion empire? just ask of the african friend, dictator, police local, don't. africa lives in a, in a constant state of inspiration. we are the dream of. what because the world should be scared of us. or g print designs already have tons of fans across the globe. see max been 16 minutes on dw the about. why does that mess? because now i'm lisa and the new host join us for an exciting is to ation. everything in between

moses a video and audio production by d w. i hope video will tune in the the whole, these are a docking commotion ships in the red sea. this is kendra tom, nation for the war. and guys who are the, who needs an um toilet to go and religious rebel group from yemen, backed by 8 on for you, or somebody ok have for these attacks, the direct trip to international call us. and by the time security they have responded by jointly cutting out strikes on who the targets in him, in germany and other europe. emissions are also going to do a naval emissions. but this be the pre goes to the next regional the conflict, especially with key players like it on. and so there may be a involved in this conflict bandbox.
