Cities across germany have also seen mass protest organizers said more than a 1000000 turned out to demand action on Climate Change meanwhile german chancellor Angela Merkels government has responded by announcing a 50000000000 euro climate Protection Plan merkel admitted the country will not reach its climate goals in 2020 but said it will by 2030 the new measures include a charge on Carbon Dioxide emissions which may push up the price of petrol and oil the plane travel should become more expensive but transport costs will be lower for those using Public Transportation in train and Green Electricity development is to be stepped up. To talk more about this im joined by our chief Political Editor. We can i have to ask you sister kind of Emergency Action that millions of protesters around the world called for well this what i am we already got reactions for the climate fight is for future movement here and many basically said that this is not a breakthrough these 22. 00 pages that i have here of this acts of plan of the German Government and also greenpeace and many actually condemned this accusing the socalled grand coalition because thats the product of this coalesce and that we have here saying that they lack moral responsibility on the issue of climate so resoundingly no from all climate activists here and me now under the plan germany wants to meet its goal of reducing greenhouse emissions by 2030 is that achievable well depends on who you ask the experts now or that climate x. Inside say not with this plan its too bitsy its not the big breakthrough as in not enough bans on Old Technology in that and theres not enough the future to prove policy im going to machall also in that press conference said that whether you fulfill certain goals what x. E. Those c. E. O. 2 emissions are in the end depends on so many fact is that its simply not possible to pin it down right now so the well the short answer is yes it would be achievable but the big an open question still is whether this plan will be enough to do that germany was once a front runner in Climate Action in fact it made headlines for it essentially coming up with a plan to completely reduce fossil fuel altogether chancellor merkel was even called the climate chancellor but its clearly made a point of directing down its ambitions why has it lost its lead. Well theres a couple of fact is its true im going to machall shes been in power for 14 years now almost and she framed herself right at the beginning cheshire both a book about Climate Change being existential threat. And then the big question is well why didnt she work in that direction more. She is essentially somebody who tackles crises when they emerged there was the financial crisis there was the migration crisis and we shouldnt underestimate that the amount of political traction the issue of climate got just over these past 12 months because of. The people actually taking this to the streets so what were seeing happening here right now is politicians responding to pressure from the streets and what we have in our hands right now is the political compromise that was possible thats what im going to machall stressed so essentially says shes somebody who responds to crisis you also phase out Nuclear Power earlier than she wanted and that created another big problem in actually achieving goals the open question now is is this the attempt that will make germanys targets for and that is an open question that we can answer right now debbys chief Political Editor mikhail accrue from the thanks so much youre welcome. Now to some of the other stories making news around the world washington says it will deploy more troops and military equipment to saudi arabia following attacks on the countrys Oil Infrastructure last weekend the u. S. And saudi governments are blaming iran for the strikes but tehran denies involvement the u. S. Says it is not planning to be telling it. President donald trump has rejected u. S. Media reports about his alleged misconduct and intelligence whistleblower reportedly claim that trump had pressured ukrainian authorities to investigate the son of a political rival joe biden from says the allegations are partisan and unfounded. An unusual sight in egypt on friday night Anti Government protesters taking to the streets of cairo alexandria and other cities such demonstrations have become very rare in egypt following a crackdown on dissent under president elsisi who took power in 2013 the latest protests were prompted by allegations of corruption against and the military which the president has denied last night crowds gathered in Cairos Tahrir square chanting leave sisi police broke up the event with tear gas and made several arrests. With michael sam is a journalist covering the middle east from cairo and joins us now on the line with thanks for joining us what have you seen and heard about these protests. Well we saw some evidence including Video Evidence of protests in downtown cairo in cairo as to her the square that you mentioned in the port cities of alexandria and suez and also rural areas like im yet to someone or hala that these protests took the form of small groups of people chanting for the fall of the regime and against president ive been factor and c. Z. As well or in some cases paring down pictures or posters is easy. And these were pretty small but quite significant protests given that demonstrations are essentially in legal in egypt and so those people that turned out on to the street risked a lot. To be clear again what specifically with a protest. Well we had chance against sisi personally demanding that he leave office as well as chance against his military led government you know what these protests are be hella geishas of corruption that you mentioned these came from a former military contractor called mohammad ali who is an exile in spain who incited people to protest to voice their feelings of frustration. You mention the fact that its risky for these protesters so 2 part question here just how risky is aid and how did organizers get people on the streets. Id suggest really risky people who in the past have been accused of organizing protests who seem to organize protests including known political activists whove been imprisoned for long periods allegations of torture and also imprisonment where they have no access to their families or to the legal system in any way so the risks are extremely high for people. In terms of organization this was spurred by this contractor mohammed ali whos been. Releasing the baby video for the past couple of weeks and then he recently for which to tell egyptians to call on egyptians to go out into the street after the end of a football match yesterday and he said peacefully make their voices heard and so the result was small groups of people seemingly unafraid to briefly express themselves despite the huge risk to going out into the streets for 1st time in many years. Journalist michael seen in cairo thank you so much wolf. To the u. S. State of nevada now and a disappointment for people hoping to get a glimpse of extraterrestrial life a student had posted an event on facebook inviting people to storm the state secretive area 51 military base which is long rumored to housed government secrets and u. F. O. s and aliens well despite millions of Facebook Facebook and facebook indicating that they would join the raid the turnout didnt quite live up to the hype. There was some revelers a few outlandish costumes but just not many earthlings and definitely no flying sources at the perimeter fence of this remote military base after an overwhelming response on social media only a 100 people showed up there were true alien fire its tough out there of that incredible you wouldnt believe it and if you. Believe are there are only there are. But far from catching a glimpse of each seat the much hyped raid was what some call to go is wanted to see the most we came out to see the dumb people make a run for it. Why would you ever miss this a bunch of random people in weird costumes standing outside of a government base. Why would you want to miss that thats a one more lifetime experience. The u. S. Air force around top the security around area 51. 00 ahead of the event its the nevada test and Training Range where it tests spy planes and trains start the site was so secret that the u. S. Government took until 2013 to admit it even existed. Just a few people were detained and at the end of the night aliens were freed the secrets that area 51. 00 holds all still. London raps scenes like the truth stand out back. This is g. W.
