berlin. the world pays tribute to the king of football. brazil deglazed readers of national mourning for its beloved superstar, pele -- brazil declares three days of national mourning for its beloved superstar, pele. the russian president's overture seems a guarded welcome in

beijing. two years after brexit, the u.k. continues to struggle with the fallout from leaving the european union is the economic benefits promised by brexit supporters failed to materialize. millions worldwide prepare to celebrate the new year with a bang. green campaign this morn it is time to rethink the frenzy for the sake of the environment -- green campaigners warn it is time to rethink the frenzy for the sake of the environment. i'm phil gayle. welcome to the program. brazil has declared three days of national mourning for the football legend, pele. the only player to win three world cups has died of cancer at age 80 two. his body will live at his hometown club, centrals, until his funeral. for many around the world, he was so much more than just a

sportsman. >> a memory all brazilians cherish. pele helped the country when the most treasured trophy in football for the third time in 1970. he is remembered as a player who inspired millions, and brazil is honoring its hero. >> there's a feeling of sadness for all brazilians. pele will be missed for what he represented to the world and to us who love soccer. >> the football community is also paying its respects. >> he was a legend of our sport, one of the pioneers when it comes to world-class personalities. he was the reference for a whole generation. everybody wanted to be pele. >> the sports governing body fifa lowered its flags.

>> he is forever with everyone who loves football because he was in it for football. >> a somber ceremony for pele and india -- in india. and he is remembered here in pakistan in an area known as mi ni brazil. >> every -- ever since i ha can remember, i have heard pele's name in karachi. >> comparisons between pele and maradona were a source of friction between fans, put aside for now. >> i was still very little but i

remember my father's words. my father saw him play, and he was amazed. the same way i talk about ma radona, he talks about pele. >> for millions, he will always be the greatest player of all time. >> football journalist tim vickery in rio de janeiro told legacy. >> you keep using the word king. remember, this is a poor black kid born just 52 years after brazil has abolished slavery who leads the scene as the king of the global game. as a nine-year-old child, he sees his dad crying as he listens on the radio to brazil losing the world cup final in 1950, and the nine-year-old promises he will avenge that. brazil won three world cups when you fast-forward 20 years. brazil is known as the home of

the beautiful game, the winners of the country everyone wants to be for a month every four years. all of this is the house that pele built. phil: where did that name come from? >> edison is actually attributed to thomas edison because the little town where he was birth was associated with the conduction of electricity. even he was not sure exactly where pele came from. the one thing he was sure of as a kid is that he did not like it. he would fight his schoolmates if they refer to him as pele. ended up loving him. those 4 letters more identifiable than any other human being in the world. >> we saw that his loss has had quite an impact on the country.

>> remember he was only 17 when he won the world cup for the first time. it was the first time brazil had ever won it. there was a book about that here saying 1958, the year that should never end. pele was only getting started. plenty more for him to do and to achieve, and he is by far the greatest diplomat that brazil has ever produced. it is impossible, i think, to put it into a european context. just the multiplicity of things that he means to the country, not just as a sports figure, but the country is now immensely proud of the fact that all over the world, people talking about pele. he is a huge source of pride to the nation, even if the vast majority are far too young to have any memories of him as a player. >> so three days of national mourning. what do we know of the funeral? >> it has been slow down a little bit by the fact that

brazil inaugurates its new president sunday. from monday morning, he will lie in state in the center circle of the field there at santos, a port city an hour down the road from the metropolis of sao paulo. anyone with deep pockets who really wants to go, make your booking, get to santos for monday to tuesday morning. after that, a procession through the streets of santos, which will pass the house where his mother at the age of 100 is still alive before a simple private service with family, and he will be buried in a vertical cemetery, a cemetery which is buried in the guinness book of records, which gives him a view of that stadium over santos that he played in for so many years and that he said is a place of inspiration and victory. phil: vladimir putin has called for closer military cooperation

with china. the russian president was speaking during a video summit. the beijing has not condemned russia's war in ukraine, it has also not provided any support. pressure's latest airstrikes have left most of ukraine without power. >> more attacks from russia on ukrainian cities. round after round of drones and cruise missiles, even though ukraine's air defenses are largely holding up, falling debris from the interceptor rockets still causes significant damage. glass everywhere. vladimir putin held talks with his chinese counterpart. the video call happened to take place on the 100th anniversary of the founding of the soviet union. its demise is something putin bitterly regrets. together, he and xi jinping want to stand up to pressure from the west, and putin at least once closer military cooperation with beijing.

>> a special place in russian chinese relations is occupied by military and technical cooperation. this contributes to the security of our country's. we are here to strengthen cooperation between the armed forces of russia and china. >> in a difficult international situation, we are ready to build up strategic cooperation with russia, provide each other with development opportunities and be global partners for the benefit of our peoples. >> china's official stance on putin's war has been quite objective and fair. president xi told putin that position is not changing and that the road to peace would not be smooth. putin called xi his dear friend and invited him to muska next year. -- two moscow -- invited him to moscow next year.

>> early next guest came up with the term dragon bed related to the russia-china relationship. welcome to the show. >> it seems as though we do not know the scope and scale of the military technological cooperation between these two -- between these two states, a lot of military exercises has been conducted, and even during russia's war against ukraine, but this domain is obviously the one that's going to be exploited and explored in the years to come. obviously, russia has become completely dependent on china to bypass western sanctions. some even describe it as a junior partner, but china also needs to support russia in this

critical phase of russia's war because it has to avoid that a new security vacuum could emerge in the north of its borders next to the military tensions with india along the line of control as long as the military escalation. it is relief in national interest, and i anticipate military cooperation will further deepen and increase. >> that's very interesting. china embracing russia is left to deal with china and russia being necessarily on the same economic page or having the same worldview. more about if russia remains stable, then at least that border is taken care of and we don't want anyone messing with that?

>> it is more than that. it is also about packing charter in terms of potential risks at home. these two leaders fear their own population most, so, of course, having a predictable partner is one of the major common goals, but also, creating a credible counterweight to the american global power projection in all relevant corners of the world. thus, once again, they need to show military muscle, troop military exercises, true force, coordination, be it in space exploration or the military technology domain. phil: quick word on this notion

of coordination. you have written recently that china and russia may have coordinated the timing of their ukraine invasion. what makes you suspect that? >> obviously, the russian president timed the start of the all-out war with the end of the olympics, knowing how important this was to the chinese president xi jinping, following the deteriorating standing of china amid the pandemic, so the timing was certainly coordinated with independence. i would argue that it appears that china's true intention, given the summit between the chinese president and the russian president on february 4, where they announced this relationship with no limits, this friendship with no limits, i would argue that the chinese intention was not to side with

russia to give a green light to the war but rather to provide a credible counterweight to the american efforts to decouple from china, to create an alliance of democracies. you remember probably also the boycott of the olympic games. once the war started, china had to support russia, which actually happened. >> thank you so much. fascinating. thanks for joining us from the austrian institute of european security policy. serial authorities say a militant rocket attack has killed at least 10 people. the petroleum ministry says the attack targeted three buses. u.s. lawmakers have released six years' worth of donald trump's tax returns. the former president for for

years -- for 4 years fought the release. south korea says it testfired a rocket. the unannounced lunch spark fears of a possible ufo for north korean missile launch. authorities received hundreds of support -- hundreds of reports of mysterious flying object. the military court has sentenced ousted leader aung san suu kyi to seven years in prison. she now faces 33 years in jail. the military coup last year overthrew her democratically elected government. the european union have condemned the conviction is unjust. we spoke earlier with phil robinson of human rights watch in bangkok and asked what this

verdict means. >> they are locking the door and throwing away the key. they want to keep her in prison, and i expect that we will not see her again. she is considered to be the preeminent political threat to the military coup government. she is someone who has won two national elections by landslide, most recently in november 2020, which was the government that was overthrown in this coup, and i think they are putting her away for good. they are going to lock her away in a prison and keep her away from her supporters and lawyers and others, and, you know, she will become a hostage, hostage for democracy in myanmar. phil: more countries including the u.k., france, south korea, and israel are requiring people

arriving from china are requiring people -- are requiring people arriving from china to show negative covid-19 tests. the sudden dropping of covid-19 restrictions in the country is making other countries nervous. >> nationwide travel has opened up again in the world's most populous nation. beijing's decision to reduce covid-19 restrictions in early december was a welcome surprise for many. >> they should indeed open up. i support this. everything including travel is getting more convenient. i'm going back to my hometown now. finally i can go home. it is great. >> i'm really looking forward to traveling internationally again because i have not gone abroad to ski for a long time. i'm a professional skier, so i

cannot wait to ski abroad again. >> the rules surrounding international travel will be relaxed on january 8 ahead of the lunar new year, china's busiest travel season, but a surge in covid-19 cases has prompted other countries to already impose restrictions on arrivals from china. the u.s., japan, and south korea are among those now requiring a negative test. italy and spain have also introduced restrictions, despite the eu's health agency saying such measures are unnecessary. chinese state media called the testing requirements discriminatory. with china's zero covid policy winding down and infection numbers going up, traveling like it is 2019 could be a long way off. phil: it has been nearly two years since britain completed its withdrawal from the european union and britain is still dealing with the fallout.

promised economic gains have failed to materialize on the loss of eu workers has worsened labor shortages in health care, hospitality, and agriculture. businesses are also facing higher costs. >> even the arrival of the milk trucks makes the cheese maker feel a little wistful. brexit-related losses forced him to sell in majority stake in his company. >> i feel betrayed and really quite let down by a government that promised much and delivered nothing. >> is small business used to deliver english chatter by mail-order to private customers in the eu, but thanks to brexit, every single piece of cheese now requires a certificate from the veterinary office that is prohibitively expensive. >> there's no way anyone is going to pay another 180 pounds plus all the paperwork that is

involved. >> nearby in a northern englishtown, few ever imagined that brexit would be so problematic. even in the brexit heartlands, like here in the north of england, people are reversing their opinion. polls show that a majority now believe rex it was a bad idea. however, this does not mean the decision to leave the eu will be reversed, at least not any time soon. ron jones works for belgium. he also faces a lot more red tape. >> it was never a good idea, but it was the will of the people. >> more and more studies show that post brexit trade barriers are harming the british economy and a lack of eu workers has caused labor shortages. >> i don't think it has worked as well as we thought it would, but we did want to be ourselves again, really.

>> the doctors and the nurses, we are so down now. >> it has been an unmitigated disaster. absolute disaster. >> in the meantime, simon is managing to sell cheese at a profit in the eu again via the european hub of the new majority shareholder. the cheese maker would have never dreamt that brexit would have cost him so many sleepless nights. phil: we ask our correspondent in london what has changed since brexit. >> well, the weather has not changed much, i can tell you that. but brexit has really changed everything and some of those changes are more obvious than others, but as you saw, it has had a huge impact on small businesses in terms of these burdens, the paperwork, the bureaucracy, the inspections and delays have made it very difficult to do business with the eu, and that has really

shrunk trade between the two blocs. we have seen a lot of economic impact. of course, it is always difficult to try to isolate the effect of brexit on the economy, but there have an couple of recent studies. one of the most recent was done by an independent government body here in the u.k., and the exit is that brexit shrank the economy by up to 4%. in other words, a reduction of about 100 billion pounds per year. that is a big difference. phil: wow. we're talking about nearly two years since the deal was done and the divorce finalized. are there still problems to be worked out between the two parties? quell -- >> just like any divorce, i guess the two parties don't exactly agree on everything, and one of the biggest issues remains northern

ireland and that tricky issue of the border with ireland and customs checks. the solution that was agreed upon is called the northern island -- northern ireland protocol. we will not get into that, but the main point is the u.k. is still not happy with that solution. northern ireland also not happy. in fact, there have been boycotts in the northern ireland assembly over it. the eu does not want to budge, so this could be an issue to watch as we head into 2023. >> we saw in the report, certainly, we seem to be talking to older people. a mixed picture in the report. as you are out and about there in the u.k., what is your feeling? how do people feel about brexit two years old? >> the most interesting thing to me has been what everyone called brexit fatigue. this was such a long process dating all the way back to the referendum in 2016.

people just work tired of talking about breaks it they were set up. the biggest change has been in the last year, people are starting to talk about brexit again. many are not happy about it. you hear complaints when you are in the passport line at the european airport these days. a recent poll was done asking people here about the decision. 56% of people now say that leaving the eu was the wrong decision and even more strikingly, less than 1/3 of people think it was the right choice. a lot of conversations happening now about brexit. >> thank you for that. not skies around the world will soon be lit up as revelers celebrate the end of 2022 and ring in the new year, but there is a downside to the spectacle. green organizations are warning

about the dangers of fireworks to the environment. >> fireworks were invented over 1000 years ago and now often play a role in celebrations all over the world, but as a science tells us more about the dangers they can pose when used on a wide scale, environmental organizations are sounding the alarm before new year's eve. >> the most important problem is the air quality. we have numbers of about 1000 micrograms or more within only four hours. >> in big cities were lots of fireworks are set off at ground level at major celebrations, the air pollution can grow so bad it poses a big threat, particularly to vulnerable groups.

>> we have a high level of particle emission during those hours, and this is especially a problem not only for children and other people, but also for people who suffer from asthma or other diseases. >> and emissions are only one aspect of the issue. big celebrations can also produce huge amounts of cardboard, wood, and plastic waste and spread toxins throughout the environment. >> we have carbon through the black powde that is released, but we also have a number of heavy metals, like mercury, like lead, and they are exposed to the environment as well. they stay in the air, but they also and up in forests and in water. >> that does not mean fireworks need to be banned entirely, but opponents would like to see changes to how we approach their use.

>> in many countries, you don't have those fireworks problems. one alternative is to have a centralized fireworks done by professionals. also there are political laser shows, like shows. >> one of those alternatives -- synchronized drone shows, acquired a choice to see in the new year perhaps, but beautiful in its own way and one that has little to no impact on the environment. phil: that is if you're you are up-to-date. i will have more world news at the top of the hour. have a good day. ♪
