Climate change must be the voice of us all World Leaders say urgent action is needed if the world is to meet Global Warming targets also coming up. Tanks on the streets of harare and veteran leader Robert Mugabe under house arrest the army denies it staging a coup in zimbabwe but the uncertainty about the situation is growing. And a resoundingly yes in australia to Marriage Equality the Prime Minister is pledging to make it law by christmas will he succeed. And sarah holly welcome to the show its good to have you with us World Leaders are attending un climate talks in the german city of bonn to give the implementation of the paris accord a final push these talks and friday and leaders say urgent action is needed its the world is going to meet Global Warming targets president of france called for a shift to cleaner energy germanys chancellor Angela Merkel injected a sense of urgency into the talks. So its very important for each and every one to know who saw her and so to make these contributions comparably so we have to be seen as serious and accepting paris as a starting point and also knowing that our world our work has only started and that if we look at because test refuse that we see all over the world natural disasters we are aware of the fact that this is a very tight and one that we need to take seriously that we need to match words with deeds we here in germany put a lot of effort it would all go well be controversial so im not saying this sort of just like that easily and saying well you have to do something no i know its difficult i know its difficult to fight for it so i wish all of you who are standing up for Climate Change be it as representatives of state b. S. As representatives of n. G. O. S show the necessary courage and good will and thank you for listening. Chris for spring gate is a quiet conference for us in the city of bonn Christopher Good to see you we just heard german chancellor Angela Merkel saying the paris quite a grim it is only a start so what comes next. Well without bomb there is no paris by that i mean that the parents twenty fifteen agreement that is the historic agreement that everybody talked about two years ago a huge leap forward for Global Climate policy but whats happening here in bonn over these past two weeks is basically the spade work thats needed to implement the Paris Agreement the Paris Agreement in a sense is like a constitution as you know constitutions need to be interpreted they need a whole slew of rules and regulations to implement them and that spadework that nuts and bolts negotiation thats whats going on at this Climate Summit in bonn i understand that there is broad agreement on a draft of what theyre calling the rulebook for the Paris Agreement the next thing after this summit finishes is next years Climate Summit in captivates in poland that is where the worlds nations will sit down and look very closely at that draft of the rule book and agree upon it ok earlier we heard the french president manuel not crawl making some specific suggestions for europe to take on a Stronger Leadership role when it comes to fighting Climate Change tell us a little bit more about what exactly macron is proposing. Well some of it has to do with funding present mccraw. Addressed frontally the lack of funding or the gap in funding that has emerged because the u. S. President on the trumpets announced that the us is withdrawing from the Paris Agreement in terms of actions the us has stopped much of its funding going into some of the International Organizations that deal with the fight against Global Change one of those organizations the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change the i. P. C. C. That is the main. Body where scientists get together and achieve consensus on the science of Climate Change and based on what they. Decide is going on with our climate and how its impacting the world that is the scientific basis upon which political decisions are taken at Climate Summit so the us has stopped funding the i. P. C. C. As its called and present. Basically said europe is going to step up and. Plug that gap that funding gap and hes also saying that all together the gap in funding that has emerged because the u. S. Is pulling out if we all stand together we can plug that gap. Ok so a lot of negotiating about the nitty gritty of how exactly Climate Change goals are going to be achieved but of course christopher we also heard a very poignant message from a young schoolboy in fiji talking about how Climate Change is impacting his generation. Many of us it today is interactive mission that the threat from Climate Change is real. Serious and is growing overnight of getting to the from a president of america because the barack obama he stays and i cool Climate Change is no longer since a lot of it is that when you hear it is that funny now and gloat yes ladies and gentlemen this is real it is not i made him i already do things like me that is heavy contemplate what will happen if he ignore this reality these night man days in gentleman speeches and does a lot solve the problem but walk the talk is more effective then change the mindset and set up platform in combating this environment dont use you for our next generation all right you heard the boy you have to walk the talk to you think delegates got that message there and bon. So the delegates here in beaumont i mean obviously there are National Delegations who. Shall we say not very cooperative when it comes to fighting Climate Change and agreeing on the science that says that Climate Change is caused by man by humankind but you know most of the delegates here are committed to climate to fighting Climate Change so it definitely did resonate with them as the fijian president c. Has resident resonated with them throughout these past two weeks. One one thing that the fijian bringing to the table obviously the perspective of a small island nation the first small island nation to preside over this kind of Climate Summit and that perspective is one of the most Vulnerable Countries to Climate Change is giving. The people that they represent a very powerful voice in these negotiations are giving voice to the vulnerable there in bonn thats Christopher Spring gate for us thanks so much.

Russian lawmakers have backed measures that would force some International Media outlets to register as foreign agents the move is seen as a response to u. S. Pressure on russias state funded or teach channel american intelligence has alleged that r. T. Was used to meddle in the two thousand and sixteen president ial election russia has denied the claim. Iran state media says the death toll from sundays earthquake on the border with iraq has now exceeded five hundred thirty people it was a wrongs deadliest quake in more than a decade more than thirty thousand homes were damaged many survivors have been camping outside and say aid has been slow to reach them. All is growing uncertainty about the situation right now in zimbabwe president Robert Mugabe and his wife are currently under house arrest the military appears to have seized power but denies that its staging a coup the head of the African Union told the a. F. P. News agency however that he thought this crisis quote seemed like a coup and called on the military to halt their actions the soldiers took over a National Television station to say it wasnt a coup to both our people and we will be your own borders we wish to make it abundantly clear that this is not a military or of. What of this and what would Defense Force you to do we used to pacify it do you not eighteen political social and Economic Situation in our country which if not addressed made use of it in your own it. But with tanks and military vehicles blocking off parliament and government buildings in the capital harare it sure looked like a coup. The fate of president Robert Mugabe and his wife grace is unclear but they appear to be in the custody of the military who sent the family was safe the military intervention comes out to months of power wrangling about who will succeed ninety three year old mugabe he has ruled the country since one thousand nine hundred ninety but is last week mugabe fied vice president. He was widely viewed as the heir apparent and backed by some of the countrys most powerful generals that sacking seem to clear the path for grace to be next in line some welcome the military for now seemingly stopping her. This is that development in the politics of our country in this fight is allowing the military to go fight sports and but i think its over to lift zimbabweans because from the looks of things here but that it listed theres been a stop to the family dinners the agenda that was being propagated to buy buy buy buy buy obama got me and his wife with zimbabwes economy collapsing for some in harare the focus remained on getting by. Throughout this situation all we hope for is peace we dont want to be disturbed in our daily work we want to survive when the culture of. Frustration has been growing in zimbabwe it used to be wealthy but thirty seven years of mugabe have left the economy in tatters and the question of who will take over to try to repair it has now been blown wide open. Of for more on the situation in zimbabwe lets go to harare where im joined by tendai biti he is a constitutional lawyer and a former finance minister in the government of National Unity is also long been active in this involved way in opposition tendai thank you for being with us on a whats going on is this a coup. How no. Yes we can hear you please go ahead. Tendai can you hear me yes i can but i didnt get your question is this a coup in zimbabwe. Of course its a its a military coup the. Army now is defacto control of the state theyve effectively. It is i went to the high court this morning. Opposite the president s office it was shut down and they were. Making sure that no one is that says so the military is in control and of course at the military. Into normal civilian life interferes with an elected government we must condemn that but in saying that we must also understand the reality of the situation where political space is closed. And where people are suffering the way theyre doing in zimbabwe its. The gate to inevitable. Extralegal means and that is what is happening so for me the key question right now is that. The. Government and my suggestion that we need a Transitional Government that we will agree. With the aid and assistance if not the midwifery of the Southern AfricanDevelopment Corporation the African Union and if need be the u. N. Security council and of course the Transitional Authority must not just concentrate on the electoral centric approach of preparing for an election but they also deal with some of the underlying causes of the current crises if its unemployment if you see domestic politics. Ensuring that those issues are so that five years from now ten years from now we dont have another military coup the way forward we know right now about where Robert Mugabe and his family are are they in safe custody are they under house arrest. I think that. I think that the president is probably if hes i was. With that you call that i was that is sort of no its a question of semantics when they can go out of there its a question of semantics but my fear is that see my fear is that once he makes a move there will be blood to confront this in between those that are in control now and him and i foresee a bloodbath i think that they get some money in the old was it a dramatic situation youre describing thats tendai biti a constitutional lawyer and a former finance minister in a government of National Unity in zimbabwe thank you for bringing us the latest. U. S. Secretary of state Rex Tillerson has called for a credible probe into rights abuses against myanmar as for hinge a muslims tillerson made his remarks after talks in me and more with the countrys embattled leader aung sang Suu Kyi Tillerson said those responsible for these Human Rights Violations must be held accountable but he stopped short of recommending sanctions against myanmar government more than six hundred thousand Rohingya Muslims have fled military operations in myanmar for neighboring bangladesh.

Germany and france will play out a highly entertaining draw on tuesday evening and while pose the question could one of these teams win next year as world cup. But first monica at our business desk a good day for airbus understand actually better than the past few days of the dubai and shows because ebbers might have heard trouble selling its flagship carrier the a three eighty but the european plane manufacturer is doing well with smaller models and the dubai air show the company has struck its biggest deal ever negotiated u. S. Investor Indigo Partners is purchasing four hundred thirty three twenty neo single aisle planes for almost fifty billion u. S. Dollars the deal gives us the upper hand and its all to war with boeing for Indigo Partners the deal would provide them with upgraded single line us for their fleets of ultra low Cost Carriers across north and south america as well as europe. More of the story im joined by my loan at the from france. Now how is the deal going down with apple shareholders are they celebrating. Yes they are sentiment is absolutely soaring were looking at a close to three percent increase in the share price and thats just because of the size of the steel four hundred thirty planes thats huge not only does it constitute an entire fleet but if a single carrier were to were to buy that amount of planes it would be catapulted into the top ten biggest carriers in the world of course thats not whats happening now the planes are going to four different recipients but its still a good deal that puts the air bus in a better fighting position with boeing now before the dubai air show the order of the order tally for boeing was six hundred ninety compared to airbus is three hundred forty and this deal with indigo now helps the air bus more than catch up all right i mean do you see any Silver Lining there for the superjumbo a three eighty it just doesnt want to get off the ground does it. You know its very hard to say and you know airbus was in fact expecting to be able to announce a major deal selling those planes to the dubai airshow but of course it was passed over in favor of boeing now the problems are with this model are twofold first of all the a three eighty is just not as cheap or as efficient as boeing seven eight seven dreamliner incidentally those were the planes that emirates did end up buying secondly emirates is the biggest and best customer for these types of planes making up over half of sales in the fifteen years that this plane model has been in existence but that emirates didnt place an order this time its because they were afraid that airbus would eventually stop making this model because air bus did not was not able to make a sale this time around it might end up having to do just that all right john i do my loan in frankfurt thank you so much for theirs.
