9:02 pm
the, on the, on the list of the international criminal court, israeli prime minister, benjamin netanyahu, and former defense minister you off garland. both are charged with directing attacks on civilian populations and using the starvation. as of that, been a far d i. c. c. smooth met. that outrage is right. and this doesn't really have any validity. natania, who and these really defense force are doing their very, very, very best for the state of israel. and i'm sorry that the, the, hey, again, the international court can not appreciate that. always, but these are my call. these are not walgreens, coordinating, any of those said would have done it and was at also to go visit riley has detected the courts to distinction and denies committing board crimes. and because the united states has also expressed deep consent, what would the court's decision?
9:03 pm
republican senator lindsey graham wrote in history, the code is a dangerous joke. it is not time for the us senate to act and section this irresponsible body. neither is right not the us are members of the i. c. c. it is backed by $124.00 signatories states, including all nations belonging to the european union, chose a board in the used diploma. reminded of 27 member countries of the duty to abide by 2 days go truly. this decision is a binding decision on all state all the stage bought a dish of the court switching to the home and best of the union on binding this lemon discard decision mean by nothing y'all's
9:04 pm
office describe the i see decision as anti semitic and said he would not be to enter his rights bought. all directives are met. well, of course, funding rosie burch ard is at the international criminal court in the hague. she walked us through once an engine yahoo in deland, or accused of. so yeah, the international criminal court, which is right behind me, it's free trial chamber, says it has found reasonable guidance to believe that both men are responsible for war crimes, including starvation as an active warfare and including targeting civilians and crimes against humanity. those crimes, vehicle persecution and shumate acts. and what does that mean outside of legal jargon? well, they talk about the 2 men are son accused of intentionally unknowingly. the court says depriving civilians of objects indispensable to their survival. that includes food medicine, medical supplies, electricity, the court,
9:05 pm
and it statement also refers to, for example, doctors having to perform surgery without access to honest asia for their patients . and in those alleged claims that it'd be listed mean that both those main or no internationally wanted, they are officially fugitives of each national criminal court. and there is also interest warrant out for him also leader, i think the, the military leader of a mos. what do we know about him? yeah, absolutely. the rest morton is being issued from a how to die if he's also also otherwise known as an, as e for him almost 3. now, originally the international criminal court chief prosecutor had started arrest sports for other had last leaders who have since been killed on the i. c. c says it doesn't know whether mohammed died face in fact a life, but it can't prove otherwise. and therefore, as proceeds with his arrest more, no, he stands accused also of war crimes and crimes against humanity. and those include rate on other sexual violence. the crime of extermination also of targeting
9:06 pm
civilians and taking hostages. and of course, that relates to the last terror attacks is october 7th and hostages. it has be taken ever since, and therefore he also is internationally wanted and also considered a fugitive of these courts. where is the we know that the i c c the, the cord it has the power to issue arrest warrants, talk to me about its its power or maybe like the arrows to execute these warrants deviled. that's really the exact limit of international law that we see playing out here because the court doesn't have and there is no such thing as any sort of international police force. it can go on arrest, suspect his war criminals. instead, the court has to rely on the enforcement powers of its members states, and i know all countries are signed up to the treaty, which establishes this court noticeable exceptions. the united states and israel. neither of them are signed up, but more than a $100.00 on 20 other countries are, and they are legally obliged to arrest any official suspects, war,
9:07 pm
criminal suspect, or fee due to the v i. c. c, should they arrive in their territory. that means, for example, germany would be legally of likes to arrest mister netanyahu. should he visit the country. now we have however, seen the past. the countries have no respect to its or know a follow that obligation. for example, we saw a, the case of long goliad which did not arrest russian president vladimir putin despite the fact that he himself, is also a fugitive of this international criminal court. and beyond that, we've also seen the fact that preaching has not been anything really of a, of a total per royal and the global states receive all their leaders happy to shake his hand despite the fact that he has these labels of the swipe, right, is a big difference between issuing the rest awards and actually see any of those suspected work criminals in the don't here in the hague, dw, as far as the board chart in the hague, in the netherlands, rosie thank you. or worldly or dw corresponded emily or d, and told us how these really government has reacted to these arrest warrants. well, the government and those roles racked in with outrage. the prime minister's office
9:08 pm
issued a statement today, cooling the warren some onto a cooling the decision to issue a warranty. i'm just emetic. the statement also verbs quotes the israel projects. we've discussed. the episode unfold actions on charges against it by the international criminal court. this has been occurred by several members, really by all members of his call. nothing of his cabinet. national security minister benjamin to smoke national for church. i'm going to study some up and give your came out saying that's the answer to the arrest horns through the some sweeping bionics ation. all forces that the occupied, the west bank and also of course is illegal. but the outrage essentially is also not just confined to the government, it is quite wide spread across the political sphere and as well, um, even, you know, a long months ago position in a month. so excuse me, i'm off is this new to yellow. pete is also issued, his condemnation done the rejection of this, of these warrants,
9:09 pm
but the husband have a one exception and that's come from. do you have dosh quantity, which is the fall last policy and as well? and they've come out saying that the court, the course in the have decided, according to clear evidence missing you all you and go on, are responsible for the total destruction of all the mass murder office residents. they have to pay a price for it. but again, this is an exception to the rule. so far really we've seen across the board across the political boards. what spreads outrage and really out this decision. yeah, and either the war in guns is not mistaken. the. we have to say that the prime minister benjamin netanyahu, he's become a lightning rod for controversy inside is real. how is this announcement of this arrest warrant? how is that being received by these rarely public? well i think again that's an exception to the role of and he said he is how's the comes some of a lightning. roden is brand new society, but on this is where it is actually seemed quite united. i think that the vast
9:10 pm
majority of is really is i don't think i miss i'm, you know, i'm go long. so how can missing will crime? there was a sudden consensus in israel about as well following how most of the terror attacks on october 7th and the taking of the hostages. and that israel had a duty to defend itself. and i was talking to someone earlier who is an audience, a christmas critic or messenger. and he said that while i criticized him and his political decisions, especially during the course of the school i, i absolutely a part of is the, the rest horns. and i think that reflects the kind of why the sentiments, you know, that's another, has been widely criticized over the course of this whole for one who speak to someone who is responsible for lowering october 7th to happen. and at the same time, he's been criticized so not to agreeing to receive 5 deal of what have i'm seeing the, the release of the hostages. but that's again when it comes to the i c. c. when it comes to international christmas or to criminal court. there is a consensus here about the institution itself. it's biased and that's also why this
9:11 pm
ruling is widely rejected. security w's. emily coordinated with the latest from jerusalem. emily, thank you. know to another conflict to russian president vladimir putin says that his country attacked ukraine with a new mid range ballistic missile and a national address boot, instead of russia deployed and experimental weapon and retaliation for ukraine's recent strikes on russian territory with us. and british missiles just a day earlier in the rush, the accused ukraine of launching new case applied storm shadow and missiles into rushes. course border region where this media reported that one didn't have given the green light for the weapons use. united states also recently gave the go ahead for keep to use it's longer range. attack them's missiles for strikes inside russian territory, boots and also warned the west that most scale could strike the military
9:12 pm
installations of any country whose weapons are used against russia. which advanced to the brand, we consider ourselves entitled to use our weapons against the military facilities of those countries that allow their weapons to be used against us for the amount of an escalation of aggressive actions. because we will respond just as decisively waste exactly which is the issue she has to go through. but if we have always preferred to resolve all disputed questions with peaceful means, it grew more to me. but we are also ready for any development in events from us. if anyone doubts that they are wrong, there will always be a response or they want to bring in no rush analysts, customer team a good. so you joins us from the lithuanian capital, vilnius in cost and teen, you heard hooton's address. how do you read it? so frankly, when you see a human russian,
9:13 pm
it's very clear that he's worried and it's very clear of that's up and well, just all of a sudden he's scared of the mess of use of the western missiles against the russian targets. and i think that he's retaliation which he states that he coordinated with us. so he basically told us that the launch will not be nuclear in advance. so here's an attempt to show that he's very serious about escalation that the bike ministration, the german government and others were so much afraid. so in a sense, if it is not so much about your grand, it's about scaring the west into not giving weapons to grant internal given missiles to be great. because to me it seems he is really worried that this may have a significant effect, especially in the course call blessed where. busy put him is trying to dislodge the ukrainian forces that managed to seize
9:14 pm
a part of this russell region. he said that russia would or could attack military facilities of those countries that allow their weapons to be used against russia. how likely do you think it is that that would happen? and it to do you agree with me that he's, he's a, me, that message at the us and the u. k. and maybe even germany of germany decides to send those tours missiles yes indeed. absolutely. and i think that's uh all the other hand, also in your 1st question, i don't think she will launch such a strike because death will risk a lot of nature and definitely be conflicts with data. if you decide to strike minutes of your target, let's say uh on the 1030 of one of the european allies,
9:15 pm
i mean versus going to lose this will this very clear. and. busy it will have to launch a nuclear, which would, which it will also and you click which with richard will also lose. so i think it's very much indeed aimed at limiting oh bet stopping completely deliveries. busy of um, uh these massages but these weapons to ukraine. and that is because put in is really afraid that this will have a significant effect on the bathroom, on the battlefields, on the, in the, on the, on the theater itself. of the what you say he's scared is he's scared to of what could happen at home. i mean, was this message today he meant for domestic consumption as well as oh, yes, look, it's good. it goes without saying, but every single polluters message always has a domestic component. there is no such message that does not have such a component. he understands that especially in the big city is where people are
9:16 pm
better informed, but have bits of sensitivity using social media in both remains rather the source of social media in russia. you have the set of people will be worried about it and he wants to basically calling them down say, you know where so powerful that the west will not try it again. oh oh, they will have it was more of a series of consequences. consequences a so she claimed, i think completely without just education, that's a such miss house cannot be down by west and air defense systems, and that is by me not sure which has to be verified and pretty certain it is wrong . and finally, what he lamented several times is the fact that the united states on the, the 1st drop administration left the short and intermediate range and the so treaty and healing method so intensely, i would say when he spoke it's during this, but about 8 minutes intervention that my suspicion is that actually he is sending
9:17 pm
a signal to washington. let us talk about, uh, basically the us rejoining the 3 to let us talk about guarantees. keep dedicated quite a lot of time to that event. to me, it gives you another proof that in fact, i feel the pressure is weak in the, in, in the face of, of, of the threat of such advanced besides the w as konstantin haggard in vilnius, analyzing the address from the russian president today. constantine, thank you. well, after days of discussion here in the germany, the path is now clear for o wife shoulds to run for chancellor. yet again, his government collapsed at the beginning of the month and there were many calls in sholtes, his party, the social democrats for his defense minister, boris. the story is to run instead of sholtes in new elections scheduled for next february. the story is today has said that he does not want to run for the next chance. so it might be the ones that i have just informed are party leadership that
9:18 pm
i am not available to run for the office of translating. well, i'm just, i'm just when does counsellors will have football shots? is a strong chancellor and he's the right candidate with the discussion about the candidacy has caused increasing uncertainty in our party and ear attention among voters. and recent, we went all for you to that's the one by the end of the day long. this is damaging to my party line up. i tied a hits of which i've been a member for 48 years, and i didn't start this debate or was, i don't want it void when it's and i didn't raise any subject for discussion. we now have a joint responsibility to end this debate because there's a lot at stake. all right, let's go down to our political correspondent, jenny graham. she's been following me this story for it's jenny, what do we know? why did mister pick stories? say, i'm not your man. well bred for as far as the story has come out tonight, basically to end the speculation as he sat there in that short clip,
9:19 pm
despite no voice saying his desires to be the chancellor candidate for his party. many people in the social democrats and in the wider voting public wanted him to do so. he said, and in that message that the party needs to stand behind the chancellor and be unified heading into the selection campaign. and he was full of praise for chancellor schultz, seeing that he has ensured that there's been increased support for ukraine during that time. let's not forget schultz as government took office just a few months before the invasion of ukraine. and he was also very, as a filler phrase as a tire schultz was able to handle, leading a 3 party coalition, the story is said, even an easier times that would have been an incredibly difficult thing to do. and least her own. and that message. and i think it gives you a sense of his character and why he is such
9:20 pm
a popular politician at the moment he went on to see that he hasn't seen the role of defense minister as something of a spring board for a bigger and bracer political career. like some of his street assessors so really, you know, he's a very popular defense minister who has had the support for the troops. something that he's very proud of. yeah. i mean, the polls are they, are the numbers are they? are they showed that semester? the story is the most popular politician in germany right now. so isn't his party, the s p, the, aren't they shooting themselves in the foot with this? well, you have a thing that they could use a little bit of that popularity themselves right now. you. the latest pulling that's being conducted shows that from election were held this weekend. it would be an absolute disaster for the cd. the all position. conservatives weeds clearly when the, the, the, the largest share of votes and the coalition policies. we asked me to the greens they are dying and it just 14 percent there. and it's really, you know,
9:21 pm
a telling result that this, this coalition, that recently collapse really isn't speaking for the people at the more. but yes, it looks like, according to the recent pollings, this is really going to be a battle between the feeders merits, the leader of the opposition conservatives, and, and on to allow schultz. if you do have the chancellor candidates. yeah, fascinating. when you look at those numbers there, the cd, the numbers do not look good. corresponding jenny graham with the latest here in berlin. jenny, as always, thank you. started. let's take a look now, some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world. the former florida congressman matt gets who was nominated to be us attorney general by president elect donald trump has withdrawn from the selection process. is nomination received widespread criticism inside and outside the republican party gets came under heavy scrutiny over allegations of sexual misconduct involving a minor and narcotics use. brazilian police have formerly accused the former
