and well, to work for change and also i will sing my song. maybe my voice will be heard back to bring to our seeking justice for the victims of fantasize this week on d. w. the . this is dw news live from berlin tonight, growing concerns over a new russian weapon. a missile of the kremlin says, can hit targets across europe. president vladimir putin was ordered mass production of the weapon already used for the 1st time to attack ukraine. native is called an emergency talk, meeting and response to the threats. also coming up to you in climate conference and neither by john goes into overtime bridge countries making a last minute pledge of $250000000000.00 a year to help developing nations deal with global warming. and the world responding to a risk. barnes for israel's
7:01 pm
a prime minister benjamin that's in yahoo! accused of more crimes and goes up. some governments reject the charges. others say you should face or read the i bring golf is good to have you with is a rush. is president blinded me, approaching has ordered a mass production of a new type of ballistic missile already use for the 1st time to strike ukraine. booting says russia will put the medium at range or stick missile into service. under combat conditions, nato and ukraine have called emergency talks over the attack, which took place in the eastern city of denise abrupt ukraine's president, board of me is a lensky, says keith is working to develop new air defenses. a, c, c, t, v captured multiple strikes on the pro ukrainian city where russia says it tested
7:02 pm
a new medium range, hypersonic ballistic missile, named the arrest snake, or hazelnut tree. the kremlin says the weapon can move 10 times faster than the speed of sound. divide air defenses. the missiles at tech targets the speed of my for 10, and really the, this is 2.5 to 3 kilometers per 2nd. gives me the world's most modern air defense systems. and the american mt missile defenses in europe count out to intercept such marseilles loop in the i get the median for what them. according to ukranian intelligence, the missile was launched from russia's us to con region, taking 15 minutes to travel, around 700 kilometers to meet pro. the range of the arrest snake has not been confirmed, but reports say it could reach up to 5000 kilometers, allowing russian to hit most of europe. that's less than an intercontinental
7:03 pm
missile, which can fly more than 5500 kilometers. i can confirm that russia did launch and experimental intermediate range ballistic missile. this i or b m, was based on russia's r, s 26 roo bash intercontinental ballistic missile model. in terms of a notifications to the united states, the united states was pre notified briefly before the launch through nuclear risk reduction channels. the missile launched on the pro was carry unconventional warheads, but it resembled a ballistic missile costing more than $10000000.00, which was designed to carry nuclear warheads and has never been used in war before . it makes no military sense to use such an expensive missile on a ukrainian city were, let's say, is under m would have done the job. let's say the intention was to send a clear signal to ukraine outlets allies. i think it's more of a nudge to european capitals because dismissal would be very much capable of
7:04 pm
reaching most of them was a substantial payload. the arrest nick is the latest russian hypersonic weapon to be tested in baffling ukraine. john and sir called missiles already in use. they have proved destructive, but not completely unstoppable as must go claimed. ukraine has managed to shoot some of them down. well, i've joined now by marianna boot around. she's a military and lifting senior research associated with the project on managing the adam at harvard university. she joins us tonight from cambridge, massachusetts, in the us moreno. and it's good to have you with us letting me approved and we know that he is already threatened. sometimes in vague language to use nuclear weapons, hypersonic missiles, what is different this time? well, the difference is that this is a new system, right? so this was a big reveal of this new missile, which could well be, as we heard,
7:05 pm
the american officials say a refurbishment of an older system that was mock bald sometime ago and just renamed as a, as needed from the previous sort of yes, this was a clear signal, and it's hard to disagree that this is more of a symbolic move button had to respond somehow to the decision of the bite and then ministration to allow ukraine to use its weapons. american weapons attack comes on the russian territory, and this was it. and you know, we use this as an opportunity to reveal this new system. so this is a one off model number. do you think this is a one off or do you think that the ukraine should be asking data to help it prepare to have better air defense systems against the arrest as well? you can shouldn't be asking nature for button better air defenses for a lot of other reasons other than just a dis, a risk, additional missile. i mean,
7:06 pm
you create in a critical infrastructure has come under repeated garage is by other types of nestles and it's really hanging on for dear life and facing a very difficult winter. so yes, ukraine shouldn't be ukraine's air defense or shouldn't be bolstered significantly . not just on account of additional, but the significance of this might be that this might be only in a nuclear only system. so this was sort of a symbolic nuclear signal. we still don't know enough about the missiles capabilities, whether it's a social dual capable system. so it comes both in can with conventional forehead and then nuclear warhead, like many other systems that russia has already been using in ukraine. so both control and it's condor and also co caliber missiles. they all come in these nuclear modifications as well. but this could be a nuclear specific missile, and that would be a clear. so again, one of the,
7:07 pm
one of the nuclear sabre rattling types of signals then putting a like to send it we, there's a dismissal, could hit targets throughout europe. i mean, if berlin in paris could be targeted as easily as dundee pro, this ups, the stakes significantly for native doesn't it certainly does. but russia has many other capable systems of which we know that i'm very well capable of targeting paris and berlin. this is just the land based system that had previously would have been prohibited under the treaty about intermediate nuclear forces. and in europe, the treaty that is now defunct, the reference free to develop these based systems. but in terms of air based c launch missiles, russia has retained that capability throughout the years. and so then the controls that have been using ukraine era long ballistic missile that could very well
7:08 pm
a range of berlin. and so good um, you know, other systems as well. mm hm. what about the finding on the ground on the front lines right now the situation and meet the situation is not looking good for ukrainian forces isn't. is unfortunately laid isn't. i mean, ukraine ended up being drugged into the kind of war, a very infantry in terms of war that is inherently disadvantages to ukraine. ukraine has smaller human resources and other resources to fight this kind of war. so the only thing that could somehow balance out of the situation is really, you know, building ukraine shocks, full of weapons, and longer range capabilities that could try and balance out the situation. we have heard from some european leaders, i'm thinking of the most recently the publish prime minister donald task that the conflict and ukraine is now entering a decisive phase. how do you see it?
7:09 pm
it is decisive in the sense that there's in a way, a significant date that's approaching and that's an immigration on january 20th of, of america's new president. donald trump will, has a very, just a distinctive view of the way he wants to handle this war and has promised a swift and decisive miraculous em to it. we'll see, you know, these things that are easier to say then to do. but what, what we see on the ground is that both sides are really intensifying their efforts and trying to achieve as much as much gain to preserve as much as possible on ukraine in start before they are forced to some kind of settlement on negotiation. so basically they're improving as much as they can. they're negotiating positions when trump comes to power. and i mean, i obviously, i don't want you to put yourself in the mind invited me to put in but, but we're,
7:10 pm
let's pretend that we are in the room with them right now. the fact that we're talking about a new type of missile, the fact that we're talking about nuclear saber rattling that doesn't speak well for donald trump's promise that he could in the war in ukraine in 24 hours. does it it? it certainly does not. um, as i said it's, it's a lot easier to make these statements then to actually try and, and this war in a sustainable way of, you know, it's a very complicated situation and doesn't seem the put and wants to end this war. other than, you know, on his conditions, which would be a total surrender of ukraine. so the, i really don't see what the leverage donald trump thinks he has over put. and he has a lot of leverage over ukraine that you can withhold military assistance and so forth . but what leverage he thinks he has, who would put in to try and even get him to
7:11 pm
a negotiating table or something that could be called a negotiations of not as a render. that that seems to be very doubtful for me. indeed. military animal is, mariana boot around. we appreciate your time in your valuable analysis tonight. thank you. we're now to back to ice. everybody's john where the you in climate conference has gone into over time. delegates are considering a new proposal, which would see industrialized countries pay out massively more to tackle global warming. the plan calls for wealthy nations to pay $250000000000.00 per year to help developing economy. it also sets a water goal of raising $1.00 trillion dollars annually by the year 2035. but it does not specify whether countries such as china and the oil producing gulf states should also pay island states say that the proposals show to tip. it's
7:12 pm
a slap in the face for smaller con beatrice. our climate report are just in the studio with the now it's last minute negotiation is going on right now. we're all right now, what kind of reactions are we getting into this last minute proposal? so the, the countryside would be receiving these donations. the developing countries are absolutely shocked, but they feel like they're being low balled by this offer. i mean, you're said it is like a 250000000000 a year. yeah, i mean, as i said, it is a huge jump from the 100000000000 where we're at right now. but what they were actually asking for was one trillion per year. so this money that we're talking about, it's supposed to help these countries not only no flights of extreme weather when it hits them, so floods, wildfires, all that type of stuff. it's also supposed to help them set up economies to or build off of renewable energy. and not fossil fuels, so it's also forward looking in that way. and they just think the 250000000000 is not enough. they've called it a slap in the face. they say it's
7:13 pm
a kind of how low can you go type of offer. and so in the money would also be used to help them relocate people, right. especially for these island countries that could actually be underwater in a few years. absolutely it's. it's also really complicated to talk about this because the money can go and so many different directions. the only thing that these countries agree on is that if definitely not enough, although some experts are saying that it's of course much less than they asked for . but it's a good number as a start that you know now, now they're behind the scenes are getting about it. is it just about the money here? be interest or are there other holdups? yeah, so really what makes the cops? oh, great. as also what makes it so complicated. so what's great about the cost is that every country have a say. so that means that the small island nation can also interfere in these agreements and not just, you know, the, the, the big powers. but that's also what makes it so complicated right now we have almost 200 countries fighting about the number. how, how much money should it be?
7:14 pm
another big problem is that they want assurances that this money, whatever number they agree on, will also actually be paid out. hm. because a $100000000000.00 the countries are receiving right now. the promise was that they were going to get it by 2020. and that promise was only really came into effect by 2022. so not only does it feel like they're being like, schedule is behind schedule, and they're afraid it might happen again. i'm wondering what a country like china, where does it fit in here? because china is still considering what an emerging developing economy and yet it is a developed economy now, and it's also the world's biggest emitter of greenhouse gas emissions. so is it going to be paying in to the fund, or is it going to be receiving money? yeah, so the role of china is a huge sticking point. has been a huge thinking point in these negotiations because yeah, lots of people argue it's classified as a developing nation because it does have a lot of money. it's the 2nd biggest economy, but the disparities are still really great in the country. there's lots of people
7:15 pm
living under the poverty line. but yeah, as i said there emitting the most so the donor countries want help from economy like china. so what the new text the saying, it's not putting it in the category of donors, but it is opening the option to expand the donor base and make a, you know, voluntary, you know, allow voluntary donations from countries like china, but also the gulf nation is yeah, the gulf nations, which of course, are sources of a lot of the fossil fuels that are causing the problem right now. but the voluntary payments, i mean, does anyone really believe that you can rely on a system of voluntary payments? i think that's kind of probably what people are discussing behind the scenes now as well. lots of donors want there to be assurances that the, you know, that it's a voluntary that it's mandatory for them to participate. right now it's building blocks, you know, you gotta start somewhere. i think that's the 1st of all right. climate report or the interest is tomorrow. it's good to have you here in the studio. i know it's been a long week. it's been a long day. yeah, thank you. thank you. all right,
7:16 pm
let's take a look now at some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world . donald trump has nominated the former attorney general florida. and that bond to you to become the us attorney general. former florida congress been mad, gets withdrew from the selection process yesterday. he was trumps, 1st picked for the job, but came under scrutiny over allegations of sexual misconduct and narcotics. he uses a lot of germany, social democrats, well next week, formerly nominate or walk sholtes to run for a 2nd term is chancellor. the defense minister boris. the story as well as an else that he will not run for the top job in february elections. the move ends weeks of speculation. police in ecuador have clashed with students in trade unions protesting against power cards lasting up to 14 hours a day. the worst route in 60 years have stalled hydro electric production, knocking out much of the national energy grid. this international reaction has been
7:17 pm
mixed to the arrest warrant that was issued yesterday for israel's prime minister. benjamin netanyahu for more crimes in gossip is really in the united states have rejected the charges brought by the international criminal court. but some governments or to say the israeli leader would be arrested if he entered their countries, hunger, res, prime minister dict, or bonafide, he's invited mentioned yahoo to visit his country saying the court's decision would have no effect. is it the 100 here in germany, the government has pointed to its historical relationship with israel and says that it will take no further action unless nothing yahoo plans to visit. i know that you've been on the one hand, we very much support the importance of the international criminal court. i mean, i'm going to take a seat ticket funds will attend. on the other hand, we have our historical responsibility. these, our statements should be regarded in light of these 2 aspects and seen on that basis. i find it hard to imagine that we would carry out arrests in germany to see
7:18 pm
of these. i couldn't log in at the hospital in the police. you so that you have it, germany is backing the i c c and principal the same time it's reluctant to enforce the arrest warrant, dw, political correspondent, jenny gray. i'm told us earlier how berlin mike trying to handle this dilemma. it really would only be an issue as connected. yahoo or his former defense minister came here. now, you know, his last visit was in march of 2023. it's 6 months before october 7th. and there have, in the past being occasions where the german is really cabinets of met for exchanges . the last one of those was in 2018. they're not a regular thing. we happened very rarely and nothing like that is on the cards anytime soon. so really at the moment, it's just a case of, of wait and see. i spoke with professor yvonne mcdermott, she specializes an international criminal law. i asked her how enforceable these
7:19 pm
arrest warrants really are if some members of the court seemed reluctant to act on as well. the states who have signed up to the room statues of the international criminal court have an obligation to comply with the court, to and not, and interfere with the exercise of his action disease. and so i think in practical terms, this means that those states who are signed up, and as you mentioned, they're over a 120 states, right in the world would be applied to transfer any of these depending on. so i think it's important. bear in mind that it's not just the 2, it's really depends on c, m, for him, or as far as where as you yesterday, the result, the suspect from hama as but yes, the state parties of an obligation to transfer those individuals to the court. it's done trial, and that being said, you know, we have had examples with, for example,
7:20 pm
the president of c john tomorrow, this year for him in there as far as it still stands and who has been able to travel to certain countries, africa. so does may of fusion for and there's another as far as i recently traveled to mongolia which is the state policy. and then the court doesn't have enforcement powers. it doesn't have its own peace, for example. so they really do. the court really does rely on state the good way of updates to comply with their obligations. all right, let's take a look now and some of the other stories around the world is real, has launched a new air strikes against the husband of stronghold itself. a root is really army issue evacuation warning saying it was targeting the militant group. lebanon's helped ministry says is really strikes on the south of the country killed 5 medics . the long you to a has bullet related rescue force. the german technology company, bosh. it says it will cut its automotive division workforce by as many as $5500.00
7:21 pm
jobs and the next several years. they blamed stagnating global car sales, excess capacity, and a slow transition to electric powered vehicles. in recent weeks, german trade union as have stepped up their protests against the expected costs. the ceo of the swedish electric car battery maker, north volt, has resigned just hours after the company filed for bankruptcy. in the united states, peter carlson co founded the company in 2016 north bolt was seen as a key part of european attempts to catch up and battery production. but it struggled with production, delays and mounting debt. now to south africa where hundreds of illegal miners are said to be hold up in an abandon gold mine for a 3rd week in a row, police have cut off food supplies. they tried to do that to force the miners out. but after a civil society group went to court, they've now started sending down packets of food to the miners. more and more
7:22 pm
worried relatives have gathered near the shaft to the mine, as they wait for a so called rescue mission to get underway. diane hawker reports she is of english from a mother and wife, nosy point to these 2 sons and husband are among the legal mine is currently trapped underground. and the last time they received food was on sack today. so the best, the main thing we're asking the government for is to send them food. they need food to survive on the ground. if they don't eat, how will they stay alive? how will they suffice? good, good. good. um the last friday the south african government announced it was planning
7:23 pm
a risk emission bucks a week later, these been little movement and little explanation about what is causing the delay. so i won't give the exact time frame, but um, something will be done and some things being done. so people must just be patient, give us time so that we are able to do to them it. police say those involved in the legal mining operations should be prosecuted and that's why they initially blocked shots entrances and food supplies from reaching those underground enough. volunteers have pulled live in people out from the school fontaine mine so far. using ropes and police to bring them to the surface. i end up being is one of those risk you in this way. he says those live underground of feeding the fix of the police blockade. one thing i pulled up wanted to perform from long as if,
7:24 pm
when i was rescued, someone to with people that were left behind were in bad shape. bicycle seems they were in very bad shape, not into that. and then of course, as the pleasure of buying some of the rome medications that run out because the police had closed off all communication with those above ground and mistaking this in 6 weeks. so there was no food left is and we ran out of water from the next a. some people were very weak, you know, made me save many people from towns around disuse, minds rely on the legal mining to get by many a form of mine with no way to find the gold sourcing of under is is missing it by one means we try our hardest to get jobs in the formal sector. but because there are too few jobs in south africa, we end up living this life of a legal binding c, c in delta c. it's not something we want to do. it's not that circumstances have pushed us in this direction to see what is push it out of to spending 2 months
7:25 pm
underground. okay. and almost not making it out. i ask him this simple question. he's been risking, would you go back on the ground and some of the to what a, what i'm going to but i see it if the police operation stops and they allow us to go back by that we'll see about it. if they say they won't arrest us and let us work by safe guns on, i would go back immediately. they've been, then i'm, we are no one. what was the police say they've detained? 15000 legal minus since december 2023. and those numbers keep growing, assigned that many people are willing to risk did under risk for a chance to survive. that report was from the w, corresponded diane hawker, she sent us this update from the mine just a short while ago as well. there seems to be some movement in the risk of operation here at the school fontaine mine. what you see behind me is
7:26 pm
a train that has been conducting an assessment of what's going on on the ground. a camera was attached to the crane earlier on. and since down to kind of get a picture of what's actually happening now, the crane is actually leaving the site and we understand that it will provide a final report to authorities about what is actually meant to happen going forward . we understand that that report could take the course of the next week in and that the final portion of the risk of operation could actually only come into effect on monday. so that means they'll be quite a bit of a wait list for those who are underground more of a wait for the family members who are quite anxious about what's going on. but also hard to say that they have to be careful. they come to just go underground without having the necessary information about what's truly going on the. so that was zion
