A compromise we can live with stop taking up space both. Out of our. Were terribly sorry madam chair but we cant accept this. And im terribly sorry im not a president we cant find the document it seems that. Its really thinks. We need to stop planet. Also coming up to dissent and disappear in a dictatorship 20 years ago when the former soviet republic of suspected death squads silenced opposition politicians in a d. W. News exclusive youll meet a man who says he was one of the killers. Yeah but in the fruit could use to my sincere condolences i took part in the i can show you the burial site on a map the rest is up to you and better russas Law Enforcement system. To our viewers on p. B. S. In the United States and all around the world at welcome we begin the day with the longest u. N. Climate talks ever held and the shortest list of accomplishments to show for 2 weeks of marathon talks in madrid have ended and delegates are lamenting a wasted chance this appointment to coming from the u. N. Secretary general antonio good terrorists the International Community lost an important opportunity to tackle the Climate Crisis he tweeted and he added we must not give up and i will not give up Scientists Say we have until roughly 2030 to drastically cut emissions that are fueling Climate Change urgent action is needed everyone agreed with that but they could not commit delegates say the u. S. Announcement to leave the paris deal has resulted in other big polluters such as China Australia and brazil pushing back against smaller countries a growing gap between big and small rich and poor and another crucial year last. It seems that you all know needs to be a leader. And we want to be here and we mean were going to be and thats what we are doing we want to have a climate that it bites with 2050 and we use us up and im just some green and now we own that because we want to build our economy and sustainably. Still we wait we need to understand that we dont we dont have a plan b. Are the European Union committed to becoming Carbon Neutral what about the rest of the world to talk about that im joined tonight by helen ford from the World Resources institute in washington she was in madrid at that Climate Conference its good to see you again so how bad was it at the conference it was pretty bleak i have to say the negotiators really did not come forward with the kind of agreement and action that we need to see at this time so there was a big disconnect between what was happening in the negotiation room which was really going at a snails place pace which did not deliver and what were actually seeing from the science the demands in terms of the urgency of Climate Action and also from people on the streets asking their governments to step up and take action so there was a huge disconnect there and sadly madrid did not deliver what we needed and how do you explain that disconnect b. Because we report about this almost daily now it cant be that people dont know whats going on so how do you explain. I think to some extent the negotiators are really stuck in the past theyre stuck in a world 510 years ago where theyre trying to defy and you know their National Self interests without realizing that the world has actually moved on in the real economy what were seeing is that businesses and investors are starting to step up and take action we have now Something Like almost 400 cities around the world which have committed to get to net 0 emissions by 2050 we have a number of businesses Something Like 78790 that have committed to the same the major businesses are doing so and were seeing the finance sector is moving as well theyre seeing that there are real risks of continuing to invest in the old polluting carbon intensive economy and in fact great opportunities from shifting to a glean greener cleaner economy but often want to get into the negotiating rooms the the negotiators are sort of stuck in the past and trying to get the best possible deal for each of their own countries rather than looking at how can we collectively move forward in the best possible way we are we heard that in madrid it was very obvious that the large emitters the big polluters over there have been emboldened by the exit of the United States from the pier as climate accord is that what you saw as well. Absolutely i think thats right i mean the major mentors were either absent in the discussion staying quiet or they were actually being obstructive in most cases not all but most cases on the contrary what we saw is that the smaller and medium sized economies particularly developing at countries that are most vulnerable to climate impacts those who are being hit the hardest now were really ambitious and came forward and tried their hardest to actually get a deal and themselves have stepped up we have 80 countries now mainly those small economies that have said they are going to enhance their climate targets next year were waiting now for the major emitters to follow their lead. And now we have to wait until the next climate meeting which takes place in glasgow next year why and the i dont want to be pessimists here but why is there any reason to expect a better result in glasgow where were going to get the leadership thats needed to pull these countries together a expect you to see that from from boars johnson. I mean i think what this this climate negotiation was was actually a real wake up call to the world i think theres sort of shock waves going around about how little was delivered how frustrating and difficult the discussions were so as i said weve already got a number of the small or medium sized economies particularly developing one stepping up we have the European Union which just light late last week agreed that they would go for net 0 emissions by 2050 so i expect the European Union will really be stepping up on leadership we also have some other countries canada has set a target that it would like to reach net 0 by 2050 were hoping theyll translate that into enhanced action next year south africa started putting forward some ambitious plans for what theyll do so were starting to see some other leaders come forward but i think perhaps our best hope really is the people in the streets calling for action and the businesses and investors are saying look this is the only way to go im hoping theyre going to be stepping up their voices strongly in the next few months to really inspire the governments themselves to show leadership and you know there is an irony here the European Union committed to being Carbon Neutral and the next summit is going to take place in scotland in the u. K. Which will of course head breaks and will be leaving the e. U. Big i read there when it ends before we run out of time we just lost a valuable year to take action so i have to say weve got about 12 years to really take action now if we want to prevent disaster at the end of the century why isnt there more outrage. I think we are actually seeing a lot of that outrage in september alone we had 7000000 people 7000000 people in the streets and 185 countries calling on their governments to take action to take more action i think i think time is running out we are seeing movement but its more whats happening in terms of technology right the costs of solar have come down we have developments around electric vehicles that nobody expected 4 or 5 years ago and again as i said you know the investors the businesses are starting to move so i think we are seeing that happening i think that has been something which hasnt been as prominent in the news or with governments and im hoping that sort of action and those calls to action will start getting through and reach the government leaders l m m ford in washington tonight as always now for your time your insights thank you. Thank you. Well when these swedish climate activists gratitude travels she makes a point of doing so in a Carbon Neutral way instead of flying shes held across the Atlantic Ocean twice but it turns out greatest green transit challenge may have been finding a seat on a german train the 16 year old passed through germany by rail on her way home from the cup 25 Climate Conference in madrid and she posted this picture shes sitting there on the floor in a crowded train surrounded by a pile of suitcases its a familiar scene for many german travelers but apparently that tweet did not sit well with german train operator Deutsche Bahn 1st georgia bon wished her a safe journey and promised more trains connections and seats but then of on followed up saying it would have been even nicer if you had also reported how friendly and competent you were looked after by our team and your seat in 1st class read his critics palace on this claiming that her original photo was staged but. Later clarified saying that her original train from Basel Switzerland had been cancelled so she had to sit on the floor on 2 of her trains until she got a seat but that overcrowded trains are a quote great sign because it means the demand for train travel is high and it is and this is all being dubbed greg again on twitter but many have pointed out the real scandal here is the lack of Political Action in madrid not the lack of a seat on a german train. They dissented and disappeared in a dictatorship 20 years ago 3 opposition politicians in the former soviet republic of belarus vanished without a trace now there are allegations that those politicians were murdered by a death squad on orders from the highest level in belarus the alleged murders occurred as president Alexander Lukashenko started consolidating his hold on power acquiring the label europes last dictator. Yuri good of skiis living in a Central European country and is seeking asylum there in a dutch avella exclusive he tells us about his time in a regime death squad in belarus and reveals new details about a series of crimes. A number of opposition politicians in belarus disappeared 2 decades ago and its still not known what happened to them on the evening of may the 7th 1909 yuris 100 nko parked his car here near the Old Fire House in minsk and was never seen again at that time the former interior minister was a leading figure in the opposition. As 100 and co and his supporters wanted to prevent the country descending into dictatorship and to remove president Alexander Lukashenko location to have organized on one too controversial referendums to expand his powers and neutralize parliament. Since then has ruled the country alone. Is considered the last dictatorship in europe. This reenactment of the murder of your is a harangue who is based on statements made exclusively to us t w by your acre of ski 4 members of a special military unit abducted and shots of her uncle dead in a forest gorecki tells us he was one of them and an accomplice to the crime and that as a member of the armed forces he had no choice 20 years later he has a message for the hiring close family. Here but. Also my sincere condolences. I took part in the murder. I offer you my apologies. I can show you the burial site on a map the rest is up to you and bella russas Law Enforcement system. Her family is living in exile in the german town of munster his eldest daughter yelena hears from us for the 1st time details of her fathers abduction and murder she calls the informant a man without a conscience. If you knew on it. You would get so its just its not about him its about the entire system of. Course and you just said one cant blame him people i dependent on the system im not but you must die if they are forced to commit bloody crimes in its name. Every autumn a vigil is held in minsk in honor of you resign and the other opposition politicians who disappeared got off he says he also knows what happened to them so perhaps after 2 decades the truth about the regime death squads in belarus is about to come to light. Or that story produced by my colleague here w. News Investigative Reporter christiane. Its good to see you this is a fascinating story how did you run across a couple of weeks ago mr gresley wrote an email to dodger that is Russian Department is obviously a frequent use of our programs in russian and that mail he claimed to have important insights into these disappearances cases 20 years ago in his home country and then we set up and investigative teams for team 4 of us russian natives with a strong knowledge of the country and of the region and me responsible for the t. V. Production thats how we started working on it and obviously knowing the history just a ruse you know you have to go when suspicious and. What did you do to verify his story to make sure he was telling you the truth 1st of all we checked his identity is he really the person who pretends to be we did some Database Research on that and also some inquiries on the ground in his hometown then we met him several times and we did fall long for a very long interview was working even minor contradiction contradictions in what he was telling us about these cases and we reworked it and we presented the final evidence to some experts or a few of them in europe who are familiar. With these cases and then we decided to go public in so you were able to build up a level of trust why do you think he is telling this story now. Yury told us that he wanted to go clear that he wanted to remove a stone from this so fair enough but the whole time we were working with him we had the feeling that there might be more behind his motivation perhaps even someone a person. Who might have told him to flee his country to seek asylum in a western country and then go public but we this is me a speculation we never could find could trace any facts we could have used in our reporting but we dont say where he is but we know that he is somewhere here in western europe seeking asylum you know. These revelations if they are true what does that mean where is this story going to lead us the council of europe has already conducted an investigation years ago and in that 2004 report they speak about the investigators of a code conspiracy of high ranking below russian officials and i think its possible that the General Assembly of the council in strasbourg now reopens the minsk file we have some information tonight that the those left behind the families of the victims are already creating putting pressure on the politicians to reopen the file and what wages acres dont what were going to need the broader political implications for a bill a ruse a ruse is somewhat of a pariah anyways i mean can it get worse for the country the country is pretty isolated in your rope and in the past 23 years president look angle was working hard on breaking this chain and finding partners in europe again these efforts by this new evidence we have might snow all be in jeopardy and. Thank you fascinating story. It is a fish and its nothing opposing voices especially when it comes to the hong kong prodemocracy protesters but those voices do exist our correspondent has the story of one mans mission to amplify those voices darry to do so. After lunch i changed into a new set of clothes covered my face with a black mask and merged into the stream of black people. Do i know why hong kong people are protesting im very clear about that do i know the risk of participating in these protests as a mainland very clearly yes if i get arrested i would likely be sent back to the mainland where i might simply evaporate into thin air nobody would see me alive again and if i died nobody would ever see my body. The testimony from chinas mainland in support of the hong kong protests one of the voices the Chinese Government is trying to silence this man who calls himself midway dude is trying to make them. He was born on the mainland as well. I know that there are people in china who love democracy who love freedom and who support hong kong. But with the Current Situation they cannot speak out. Because hes afraid of retribution and has relatives on the mainland midway dude cannot reveal his identity he grew up on the mainland and moved to hong kong at a young age it was here he started questioning that nationalism he was raised with little by little he grew to support on this democracy movement. When youve gotten to know freedom its very hard to go back to a situation where you dont have any freedom at all. Mainlanders who support hong kongs protests might be a minority but midway do things they should be heard they can submit their story to him by an anonymous form then he posts them on twitter and his log even he himself does not know their identity because this project tree hole in chinese legend that plays people with their secrets and. There is a trend in china in recent years that your colleagues your friends even your family members all students will report you to the whole fora g. s. They think you are not nationalistic enough they think your betraying your country. These past 10 years ive seen with my eyes wide open how my favorite comics t. V. Shows and books were banned and have disappeared from the shelves in Mainland China i saw how the best opinion leaders were arrested or silenced. I said nothing and i did nothing now i regret that i deeply regret that. Thats why i cannot bear to see this happen again. This guy truly has courage he lives up to his words and he walks the talk i have Great Respect for this. He has received over 200 messages so far 200 little signs of dissent from a country where it different opinion can be a crime.
