man, because if we lose too much of it all wrong, we mess things up, risking brain damage. so let's stop this self sabotage humans and multitasking. watching our new to v w documentary, the, this is the, the news line from the doors of russia and germany speak for the 1st time and need to trust the old off. schultz tells president vladimir putin in to ukraine's presidency. lensky once chauffeur fling into pollutants hand and place the call to restaurants. coming up safety feels a little bit on the international space station, us and russian scientists out of all over the calls. and how is the problem? is the

welcome to the program. the german chancellor of shoulds historical shells president lot important in the folder and ukraine. the 2 leaders have spoken by phone for the 1st time in almost 2 years. the german government saves shoals also put into withdrawal russian troops from ukraine and stress german support for kids on the phone with boots in for the 1st time in nearly 2 years, the german government said that shouts told his russian, count about to stop is war and ukraine and stopped talks with keith, but according to must go to stay with boots, and it was clear that any negotiations would have to reflect russia's gains and on the battlefield. despite the disagreements, the criminal welcome to call saying that any dialogue a tool was a positive development. in keith, however,

schultz is action was quickly condemned vinegar. oh, that's cool. in my opinion, opens 10 doors cox. now that maybe haven't conversations of the coals, just a lot of words, and this is exactly what fruit and has long one said, he says something like streamline, told him to reduce his isolation. obviously rough as isolation. this is the let's see what i see. the timing of the coal just days off the sheltered coalition, government collapse has some saying was politically motivated. this is about the old shots still signaling to the gentleman public that he's still in charge. he's still chance not even if he's a lame duck. and it seems that the main purpose was really to signal to the gem and electro. it's more, gem ends up being questioning, gemini support for kids with the economy struggling and ukraine on the back foot on the battlefield. thousands turned out for this ballot and rally against weapons deliveries. last month. until now, jim and

a 2 crane has been substantial. without only the wes providing more with snap elections now set for february. and schultz is social democrats headed to the defeat. the shot slipped maybe hoping that his new willingness to talk to fulton will win back. those is christine betsy. know as managing director of the german marshall fund. note, she told us more about the timing of this coal, which also follows donald trump's re election last week in the us to the end of this year. and really the last few weeks had changed of political realities. folks in germany and in the united states. and there is a process of coming to ahead of the question of what happens next. and ukraine president trump, now re elected in the united states has promised to bring a swift end of the war. and this will of course me to greater burden eventually for europe because trump's desire to pay significantly for you crazy and security or pre creating reconstruction is very limited. the european role must be bigger and

social. it's now also spacing very challenging political wins in germany. we'll have to have a say, uh, and have to have a better understanding about what happens next in european security and sense rumors then a possible phone call between the schultz. now, given these changing political realities have actually come to fruition and we have seen the 1st in depth conversations, the 1st publicly announced conversation between couldn't and western liter, which means we were entering a new phase of conversation about the future of european security. now ukrainians, living neil, the front line still face for lunch, for special attacks. 10 villages and the hockey region on the evacuation orders, as russian troops pushed forward or those also cover villages for the north. some 6500 people have left the homes in the last 2 months, but the chosen pick it up keeps skia hoping to avoid being occupied by russian

troops for the 2nd time. old, how do you have chuck is packing how most treasured possessions should be able to brought to school? these are the photos i will definitely take memories of happier times to bring with her when she leaves her home. as she will have to leave most of her belongings behind such a download certainly. so. so from the allies we've been striving to have something . today. we sold a couch. we have no pension, no salary. she was a bread winner. full of the roughly 2 and a half 1000 residents of the village of pissed skewed i'd give ski have been told to evacuate. the front line is currently 20 kilometers away and is getting close to local houses. but the scholars of recent shelling, cut that in the shop of alova,

says her 6 year old son has learned how to distinguish between the sounds of ukrainian and russian gunfire. give me a thorough a thing, he told him. it was far away that it would not reach us, but worryingly, the children became even more anxious. was she calling? the wind is very strong. it's scary and when it's not very strong, it's not scary. but off the village was on the russian control for several months at the beginning of the war until it was liberated by ukrainian troops in september 2022. residents here don't want to experience occupation for a 2nd time. so many a packing up to leave and show if and when they will be able to return home. let's take a look now at some of the stories making headlines around the world to several people who enjoyed one protest of stone, the parliament and a break away region of georgia of coffee allies in the northwest corner of georgia . and this is backed by russia invest broke out over the proposal to allow russians

to buy property. the initial has, since, since the all student government sees it will not be blackmailed as russia threatening the cutoff gas delivery to move by the state to produce a gas problem follows the loss of a contract dispute with australia, o m w energy group, australia relies on fresh and gas impulse of us president joe biden has held his last meeting with the leaders of japan and south korea for donald trump, for tones to office next to speaking of the summit in pay, reuben, and set the world is facing us payment of significant political change especially in pocket stones fund up problems have declared a health emergency overtalk. 6 old schools and colleges must close with the lock down imposed in 2 of the regions. biggest cities, pollution and pockets on northern india has seen equity,

fulton dangerous levels in the us space agency, no thought is ward. and ellie at the international space station could lead to a catastrophic failure. he is dot com slaves, nelfa and the flushing equivalent rough cosmos disagreed over the cause of the leak in the russian part of the space station. and over how serious the problem is, russian scientists believe the facility can still be of interest for the 1 april 28th. we'll see these 2 call this eric was 1st effective in 2019, but it has recently got big. oh keith cowan. yeah. the totals and also i watched dot com have more. i actually back in the day help design the space station in leaks or something you always expect, but usually small, you can normally repair them and you bring more air off and recycle it anyways. but this is an issue with an older space, these and some great it's, some of the modules are 30 years old on the so yes, what you can expect from an old car and you know, it becomes

a problem. the longer it goes on fixed. so tell us how much is leaking out and how quickly does that need to be replaced a couple times a day. what, what's happening here, if i can take things to my desk here, you have the russian service module, which is one of the very 1st things that was launched. and it has an area where other spacecraft doctor and the rest of the space station is here. and when the space pre spacecraft dock, they have to go through this total, that's where the leak is. and they're not exactly sure the russians think it's, you know, something you can deal with. the americans are thinking, you know, it's a bit of a problem and it's kind of like taking this paper cliff and just spending getting joel brakes. that's what they're worried about is that the connection between these models might break at an inopportune time. and the air will rush out, so that's not a good thing to have happen. but they're not exactly the agreement as to how to fix . while the alley is in the russian section of the space station,

so doesn't rust coast most know best in this case you would take and i'm not gonna, you know, be it's, it's, it is rocket science. but sometimes you're look at things that are never been seen before, like a 30 year old spacecraft and there's differing opinions and they, you can deal with it. but the thing is it's one thing to deal with the league. like if you have a leak and a roof in your house, you can say, well, i'm not going to go in that room. but if the roof is about to collapse, that's another issue and they haven't really decided on it yet, but it is a rushing module. but is it attached to an international space station and the air and that space station belongs to everyone? and why is it so difficult or purposely as well, they've done some things, but again, it's, you know, it's just, i've had friends who lived up there and they said that if you look down, it's a long cling of cylinders. it actually moves

a little bit every time it does the solar panels room, so it's always in motion. and so you've got to deal with something sort like open heart surgery. you don't want to kill the patient has to be a lie while you're fixing it. but it's some cases, the hardware maybe too well, but it's in a very important location. so they're a little bit perplexed as to exactly how to deal with it. so, come back next week to be another discussion. well, let's say for some reason, this comp me to pad what would the alternative be to a bundle ship? well, no, because you can always separate the module. there are some ways that you can deal with that. you could just, there's a, there's a hatch inside that you could just see this is what they do. now, when they're not using that total, they just close it off. you can just close it off and never open it again and not use that docking port that we're trying to solve the problem. but it's one thing to solve the problem. it's the other to understand why it's happening. that's what people scratching their heads about. so i don't think they're getting

a bad in the space station, but they do have to deal with. that's fascinating stuff. from cape cohen, editor of nelson watch, dot com. thank you so much. my pleasure. and other news, the animal plant on festival has begun in thailand. revenue is released thousands of lanterns into the night sky over the northern city of chee, on my dw asia pacific bureau chief gales much has joined the festivities to its full moon. the rainy season is over. it's time to drive out the gloom. and welcome in the night. the titans ye paying festival business with thousands of dollars, the trunk by 4 guidelines for their release, for sick time and zones, and to be absolutely on the safe side flights that were scheduled for tomorrow for 2 days after 7 pm have been rescheduled or cancel the lentils are made of
