u. n said that she will be bringing forward a resolution to hold russia accountable for what is happening in ukraine right now . but again, the big question will be, even though there appears to be considerable support for rob the view that russia is, the aggressor and not ukraine, as the russians have been arguing whether or not one it could survive a russian veto. would russia refuse itself from the consideration and then of vote on any such resolution? and then what about china? is china going to use? it's a parent influence on moscow to try to find a way out of this crisis or will it tells, you know, basically use it's vito to was kill any such measure being brought forward. but certainly the pace of activity is quickening here at the united nations headquarters. all right, i rosel come but tina down a little bit later. let's cross the back to the u. n. m. the ukraine on a bachelor to the you and said, because let's hear speaking to reporters as us listen to what he had the world from all from the, from the aggression from the russian federation rights slate. we have to digest informa

u. n. environment program predicts the number of extreme wildfires will increase 30 percent by the middle of this century. hitting places that have never been prone to fires before the arctic tundra, the amazon rain forest reports, all those blame are warming climate, but also unprecedented levels of land clearing for agriculture. we project that even with a moderate emissions scenario. so even if we manage to curve emissions, wildfires are still going to increase this is because the earth systems have a long response time and therefore it is clear that wildfires are here to stay. they are going to increase and we, we have to be better prepared. of course, we also need to be better prepared because we urgently need ecosystems forests, pia lance, 7 us as carbon stores. so when we risk that these carbon stores are going up in flames, then we lose one of our best allies in the fight against climate change, which is nature. nature of a solution can help us clearly to both mitigate and adapt to climate change. but the most important message remains that we have to urgently and quickly curb our

will. and i think today, this is also about putting the u. n. special envoys, stephanie williams at the center of this crisis to ensure that they can bent her to their will and ensure that the road map suits their needs and the needs are quite clear. this goes back, not only in the last 12 months, but over the last 5 years since libya's last piece process in the city of scott to morocco. this is about control of the presidency. this is about control of the supreme commander of the armed forces post. it's about determining libya's post good duffy political character, and that's what this conflict has been about for several years. irrespective of when the paragraphs happened, which sectors are at the table. the central demand has always been, they removed any one in their way. and today that happens to be using someone like i'd have a shocker as merely a political tool in a larger and longer road game that they've been playing just at least 2014. ok if i understand what you're saying correctly, at least in the short term, this essentially puts a

ah ah ah ah ah elegant climate change will make the world sicker hungry a poorer and more dangerous in just the next 18 years. as according to a u. n. report written by hundreds of the planets, best scientists. 3.3000000000 people. that's nearly half of the world's population already 15 times more likely to die from extreme weather. and rising seas will put 1000000000 people at risk from coastal flooding by 2050. but even incremental rises in temperature can be catastrophic. the amount of land burned by wildfire will increase by 35 percent. if the world warms by just under one degree celsius from now, we projected to hit a one and a half degree, rise in the 20 thirty's, 3 to 14 percent of the world species on land could vanish by then. go past one and a half degrees and people were lying on glasses and snow for water will face acute shortages. and once we hit 2 degrees, important food crops won't grow in many places. that means up to 183000000 more people would become undernourished in low income countries by 2050 reports has one way to stop. this is conserving 30 to 50 percent of the land, fresh water and oceans. but we're not eve

u. n. a security council day that he's here not to start a war, but to prevent one. yeah, a lot of people hoping that there will indeed not be a war in his stand by. we want to talk about the un security council today that met to discuss the minsk agreement, and that's the deal that was supposed to bring a ceasefire to eastern ukraine, where pro russian separatists are finding the ukranian army february 2015, 10 months into a bloody conflict in eastern ukraine, pro russian separatists, backed by russia itself, fighting ukrainian government troops. thousands were dead already. that was the backdrop for a whirlwind of diplomacy that saw russian ukrainian french and german leaders meet in the bella ruffian capital. over the course of 16 hours, they banged out a peace deal known as the minsk agreements among them, a ceasefire to be implemented immediately. heavy weaponry was to be pulled back from the front. the organization for security and cooperation in europe was to monitor the truce. also, the ukrainian government would regain control over all its territory and steps would be taken toward local elections in re
