Copenhagen which is set to become the worlds first Carbon Neutral capitol. We are focusing on the ukrainian town of debaltseve this hour which has seen weeks of intense fighting, but has now fallen to prorussian separatists. That has been condemned by the international community, which says the separatists have violated the minsk agreement. The ukrainian troops started leaving earlier on wednesday. Separatists said they pushed the soldiers out. Ukraines president described the withdrawal as having been done in a planned and paeszful way. Translator we have taken new defensive line and drawn my talks with the leaders of the United States of america, and european union, we demanded a hard response to the activities of russia. And we be prepare organized and coordinated actions. Now im going to the front line to meet those two left and i have a high honor to shake their hands and to thank ukrainian heros. Thats poroshenko putting the most positive spin he can on it. But the fall of debaltseve is a big loss. Its at an intersection between two highways the ones that link the separatists territories, and a rail hub. Have a look at this from paul brennan now, he sent in a report outside of debaltseve. Reporter were at check points about five kill meters to the southwest of the town of debaltseve, and this is as far as well being allowed to go. The soldiers are perfectly friendly towards us but they are not allowing us beyond this point, the reason why they say, is because there are Ukrainian Forces still defending their positions even now. That said the main fighting appears to have finished. We have been here for several hours now, and when we first arrived there was a significant artillery and tank barrage underway. We saw tanks firing shells in the general direction of the ukrainian positions in that way, and still here we have got tanks and various armor. Two tanks over there, armor here on a full state of alert, and they are very much aware that this is a frontline town. As far as the situation inside of debaltseve goes were getting conflicting reports. The prorussian separatists said they are in total control. The president said around 80 of the forcing who were holding debaltseve, have now withdrawn, and the rest of the troops who are still there are in the process of withdrawing. Its a bloody nose frankly for the ukrainian military. Debaltseve was a important strategic hub, but in the weight of numbers they have waged against them and the armor that we have seen firing into the town frankly the defense of the town was not tenable anymore. Just after 7 00 pm local time in moscow lets talk to Rory Challands our correspondent there. Is there a ceasefire in place anymore, rory . Can we use that word to describe what is going on when events like this have unfolded today . Reporter you certainly cant use it to describe what has been happening over the last few days. Whether we start to see more general deescalation of the tensions now, i think that remains to be seen. What were going to have to watch for is whether debaltseve is enough of a prize for the separatists. It is obviously a big prize for them, and a big loss for the ukrainians. But are they going to be satisfied with this the separatists . Or are they going to keep on pushing, try to gain more grounds off of the Ukrainian Army . Might they try to push for mariupol, for example. It doesnt seem like they are going to do that at the moment. The separatists have said that at various points along the front, they have already started moving back heavy weaponry artillery, for example, in accordance with with the minsk agreement, and thats fire. There are also people who i think appeared on an earlier program who said that the winter fighting conditions, where the ground is frozen and tanks and things like that can move around quite freely that is coming to an end fairly soon. Well get the thaw that will turn the ground very muddy, and this kind of mechanized fighting is going to become much more difficult, and that might have an influence on how much violence we see over the coming weeks. Yeah good point. Quick update on the Conference Call were expecting tonight . Reporter yes its the same leaders who were in minsk. There is only going to be one happy caller and that will be Vladimir Putin. He is essentially gotten what he wanted and the rebels have gotten what they wanted. They wanted debaltseve. We know in the minsk discussions, Vladimir Putin was paying to Petro Poroshenko, debaltseve is surrounded your troops are encircled. Do the right thing, let them surrender. Petro poroshenkos response was no this is not the case my troops are perfectly well supplied and holding out there, and the ceasefire should begin as it was scheduled to do on sunday. Now of course, it turned out that Petro Poroshenko was wrong. He is putting a good gloss on it, but this is a significant defeat for the ukrainians. Thanks rory.

It was once a financial hub, but look at these pictures you see the fighting has reduced it to rubble in many parts. Syrias government says it will decide when to suspend bombing in the ancient city. However, it is still a reason for hope. The government of syria has indicated to me its willingness to halt all aerial bombing. All aerial bombing. All sorts, all types of aerial bombing. And artillery shelling for a period of six weeks. All over the city of aleppo. From a date which we will be announcing from damascus.

Witnesses say this boy was fatally wounded during air strikes by the egyptian military. His sister was severely injured. Doctors couldnt save their lives or the lives of their younger brother. But some egyptian commentators insist they died of suffocation. Translator this is strong evidence of the conspiracy lying and fab ration against egypt. Reporter hospital staff say that account of events is a lie. Translator we started recitation on this bench. Everything happened here. While they say the suffocation took place elsewhere. The children were here and the man who appeared on the video with them is from the anesthesiology department. Reporter the Egyptian Government said the air strikes hit camps of isilaffiliated groups.

Preventing young people from being recruited is the focus of a threeday summit in washington, d. C. Which has begun. The white house has invited leaders from communities from los angeles, boston and minneapolis to prevent pilot programs which are already in place. We go to Patty Culhane in washington, d. C. Its a summit about extremism, and the white house is being very careful to use that word. Exactly. They call it a summit to combat violent extremism. And there have been a lot of commentators who are saying it should be islamic extremism. I dont want to point out, we did just hear from a member of the Antidefamation League who said that 95 of terrorist attackses have been carried out by rightwing extremists. But its aimed at stopping the Islamic State of iraq and the levant, boko haram, and alqaeda. They say they isil does not represent islam. And that isil is trying to paint this as a u. S. War against islam, and that is not the case. And they have been criticized domestically by religious groups that say just focusing on islam will only increase the fare of muslims in america and islamaphobia. How does this feed into the idea of building relations with muslim communities . Reporter thats exactly the focus, but federal firms will tell you they know they have a huge challenge. Sense september 11th muslim communities have been targeted sometimes in the guise of doing those sorts of outreach they were in fact intelligence gathering. The vast majority of muslims who have been arrested on terrorist charges have been the victims of entrapment by officials. The officials here admit that that is the case. They are trying to make the argument it is going to be different now. Their goal is to convince those Community Leaders that that is in fact the case.

The trial of thailands former Prime Minister is set to begin on thursday. She faces criminal charges related to a corruption scheme. Reporter she has already been impeached for dereliction of duty. Now the former Prime Minister is to appear on court on criminal charges over the same expensive populous scheme to support rice farmers. If convicted she could be jailed for ten years, and effectively banned from politics for life. It has been less than a year since the general military takeover happened which was said to allow time for negotiations. Translator we did it to protect the dignity and honor of the thai people. We cannot step back anymore. We must stop fighting and keep working for reconciliation. Reporter but the criminal charges take the crackdown on them further than ever before. If one side goes after the other side without any concession or compromise then its not reconciliation. So we can see clearly now, we dont want to use severe terms, but certainly theres a political effort to keep one side out and down and to to enable the other side to to go on. Reporter at this market in her hometown, we found vendors who are strong supporters of the family. Translator of course this is not the way to reconcile people in the country. What they are doing is actually totally against it. In any case we dont want to reconcile with them anyway. Reporter this is where the clans ancestors remain. In the context of thailands deeply polarized society, its more about politics than justice. Every night it was on soldiers in plain clothes would come to watch and explore this play. Translator yingluck is only one of the many cases. Its just that everyone knows about her, because she is in the spotlight. And reconciliation wont happen until people are allowed to express their views freely. Reporter despite the militarys promises any hope of reconciliation has left thailands political stage. Could copenhagen be the worlds first Carbon Neutral capitol. Denmark says controlling its own energy power is better for its security. Reporter would chips not coal heat the burners in this the biggest power plant in the country. It provides steamdriven hot water for 200,000 homes, and winddriven electricity for 1. 5 million more. Copenhagen will soon be the worlds first Carbon Neutral capitol city. The virtues of that is that were going to deliver green power, and Cost Effective heating, and be dependent of other countries. Reporter clean everlasting supplies have become the obvious choice and with that denmark has solved many problems. There is barely a country in europe that doesnt have enormous challenges working out where its energy is going to come from in the future. Fracing is deeply unpopular. Get your gas from russia well that has huge ramifications. Denmark by contrast is set to be completely selfsufficient in just a few years, and its being driven by simple and renewable forms of energy. So at a time when the cold war feels like it is being reborn. Denmark says its own policies towards russia arent compromised by energy demands. If you go green like us if you lose the reliance on russian gas, you can stop feeling threatened. If the day came where russia cut off all gas supplies we would have to also deliver sacrifices to comfort some of our neighbors, but if all countries would have done like denmark, they would be in a completely secure situation. Reporter in european governments dont want to be environmentally friendly out of choice, the danish argument that its better for their own security looks extremely compelling.
