the, the, this is the, the news coming to live from berlin, us present, piles international pressure on israel to re think it's plan ground defensive on ramp up. after meeting with the jordanian king and washington, president biden says any offensive should not proceed without a credible plan for ensuring the safety of more than a 1000000 palestinian sheltering in the southern kansas city. also coming up digging in for ukraine. the german and danish leaders attend a groundbreaking ceremony for a new weapons plant that will help europe and allies supply. keep with munitions to pipe russia and engineering. it gets ready to elect a new president. 3 major candidate, sorry, in the race,

but polls predict the wind for probable. so be, i'm told it was backed by indonesians current press. the hello, i'm terry morrison. good to have you with us us present. joe biden has urged israel to protect the palestinian civilians in his plan ground defensive in the gods and city of wrap up. biden met with jordan's king abdullah on monday at 1st at the white house their 1st face to face meeting since israel's war with the mosque began . but instead the 2 had discussed the possible 6 week break and the fighting. jordan has been pushing for a permanent seats far. washington is the king's 1st. is it the king's 1st off on a tour that includes canada, france and germany. it was somewhat present by it and said in a joint news is conference partly focused on israel's expected move in ruffle the

major military operation. robert robert should not proceed without a credible plan, a credible plan for ensuring the safety and support more than 1000000 people. shelter, as well as by mentioned around the 1000000 palestinian civilians have taken refuge in rough ends. the conflict began. the city on guys is southern border with egypt was declared a safe stone for palestinians by israel's military, as it carried out to the ground defensive in other parts of the strip. now rough it has become a focal point for is real and it's targeting of homeless militants. and as it continues to search for hostages, dozens of palestinians in rough, i have been killed and injured by his rarely bombardment in recent days. so how are the words of caution from israel's important allies going down in israel? as the w corresponded? is rebecca rivers in jerusalem as well?

sorry, this isn't the 1st time that you as president has said this, he reiterated the comments that he made a few days ago. and it really depends when it comes to reaction on who you're talking to, or who you're talking about. the benjamin netanyahu and his phone right. coalition members don't take criticism against this operation very well. they many in the fall, right? you know, hit back against a president bite. and when he criticizes the emission, and when he's talking about the general populace within israel, let's don't forget the, the, the boys rouse who in gaza is does have pretty strong a broad spectrum support here in israel. so when you talk to his relatives and you talk to him about criticism warrenton, that international condemnation, most of them say, well, what do you expect? we have the right to defend ourselves. and that is really the main feeling across the country. of course, there are some other voices who say that you know, these,

these, the criticism from the international community in particular the us need to be hated. and i think in the, in that is something that will be taken seriously by benjamin netanyahu. even the publicly, he might, you know, he might condemn these comments or he might, you know, hit back the us president, but in the end, i think it's unlikely he needs the us and he needs to try to avoid further international condemnation. so it is likely that any, you know, ground operation in rafa will be taken as he has said, that he will, they will be looking to, to try to evacuate the civilians living there. and i think, you know, it's unlikely that an operation will begin without at least some attempt to do that . you say they might evacuate the civilian population. we're talking about over a 1000000 palestinians who have been compressed into this town of rough. uh oh is,

where would they go? rebecca? this is real. have a plan to, to evacuate them to a particular place, a little that really is a major question, being off to being off by the international community in particular and by 8 organization saying that there is just so few places left for people to be able to go out, benjamin netanyahu, his has ordered these ready minute trades to come up with a plan. so far, nothing has been made publicly available as to where they see those power steering's being able to go. there's very few options, as i mentioned in a much of the center and the north of this trip has been destroyed. there's few places that people could potentially go back to there and they are literally running out of space in the southern part of the strip. so it remains to be seen just what kind of plan the, the they is ready military will come up with a that is something that benjamin netanyahu has said is, is underway and is being looked at,

but no details yet on that to that was rebecca rivers. in jerusalem now for months into israel's war on him, us prime minister benjamin netanyahu is struggling with sinking popularity. is pledge to crush the implements militant organization which is believed to be still holding about a 100 hostages. and while most is really support, continuing the war and increasing number are taking to the streets, calling for political change. we have this report from dw jerusalem correspondent, tanya kramer. as with each passing week, proteus, a growing logic and loud and israel. people are demonstrating for a hostage deal and against the government. we are protesting because we feel this government needs to step down. we are advocating for new election, returning the mandate, so to speak, back to the people after what has gone on here over the past 4 months. i personally

have 3 sons fighting and guys. and i think that they expect me and other people expect us to come forward and say that the entire political system should re be re shuffled even during war most is riley support, the war and gaza. but they want to change in political leadership. many criticized prime minister benjamin netanyahu blaming him for security failures, links with the october 7th tierra attacks it's and you know, has always advocated that he is mr. security for his role and under his leadership over the past 15 years, almost straight is real. security has been impeded, it's been undermined in a very profound way, mazda in the face of 3 months as a reservist, fighting in java, end on israel's news, and buddha. he says,

it's time to heal pre war, domestic political awareness. so he's part of a new cross policy movement. 6 we want all the political parties now to speak together to the side to get there. when is the next election election going to be because after the catastrophe of october 7th, you can just move on as if nothing happened. something dramatic happened. the world in which they were elected that has completely changed. it was matted on october 7th. the protest is here in jerusalem. want the government to prioritize the return of hostages still held in gaza buy from us and other militant group one year is for bringing back the hostages for striking a deal. because are people in israel that don't want to strike a deal? this is a problem. so this is, this is the price button, then we have to pay a price because we want to value life. but not this. it's very,

very important for the future. for what i can tell him i chose but these voices seem unlikely to sway and they send yahoo to insist he's on the way to what he calls total victory in gaza. now to some breaking news, russia has declared as stoney and prime minister kaya kyle is a wanted person. the credit on says it place carlos on the wanted list for taking hostile actions against russia, and what it called the desecration of historical memory, or russia has long criticized estonia for removing sylvia. they are a monuments, certainly a state secretary and lithuania is culture minister. are also on the wanted list. kyle's has been a local supporter of ukraine since russia's invasion began, uh its is the ukraine itself. and since russia's full scale

invasion, their t of european allies have stuff to arms production, but manufacturers are struggling to keep your cranes army supplied with him munition. now german arms company run baton, is building a new factory and german transfer all of shots and danish prime minister metaphysics clinics and are lending their full support. sholtes says you countries also need to make sure they have enough for their own defense. the leaders of germany and denmark break ground on ryan mattel's new 300000000 euro plant and central germany. just days after donald trump said on the campaign trail that he would encourage russia to attack natal members who didn't pay their dues. germany's chancellor use the moment and called on his european allies to prepare for times of war and address their arm and shortage. i guess. now new production capacity has to be added. not just because ukraine needs to be able to defend itself, but also for our own long term defense interest. a sustained lodge capacity for the

production ammunition, for example, is important. to you recently said it would fall short of its pledge, provide ukraine with a 1000000 artillery shells by next month privatized as its new factory will turn out $200000.00 a year. when it opens in 2025, germany has already pledged several 100000 rounds to ukraine before then. large scale military aid from the united states is no longer given in with presidential elections later this year. the picture is even less clear. no matter what will happen in us this year, i think the confusion testing needs to be stronger and we need to do, we need to be able to do more on our own. and i say that even though i'm a true believer in the trans atlantic alliance defense experts call the new plan, a step in the right direction. even if it comes a bit late. it's also another reminder that like it or not,

europe has once again found itself in times of war. well, given that the munitions plan won't start production until next year, can it still make a difference in ukraine's more of a put that question to defense policy analysts go stuff based on and find, find the find the sold will be well, it will come late in the war, but it will come to the ball. so new 2 years into the war. that's where we are now . europe is still falling short in keeping kid of supplied with weapons. why do you think that is? it's nice because of the younger estimation, how long it takes to to ramp up industry amunition, also competitive tanks instantly finding way it goes away at defense vehicles is one of the most simple defense good. it takes 6 to 9 months for an artillery shell,

steal from order to production. and the european union hostile to, to discuss large scale up to resupply in march last year. but they didn't strike dealers because they were fighting over the legal framework for this until september. now, september 2023. you can apply to see 6 to 9 months of time show on that to kind of roughly guess monday so to the resales will come and obviously that's too late for the promised time of march this year and still find the end of the europeans will be quite in a good shape to supply you train, but unfortunately here, only by the end of the year you, us election campaign is already forwarding american ammunition supply right now. and that's a huge problem for you train. but you've talked about to production capacity, but what about political will, is there sufficient political will in europe to help you create in this situation

of the beleaguered little stuff to materialize? or i would say the lady, cold realization and stop to, to materialize. now a lot of well would or have guessed that the what would end quickly in that hasn't materialized starting from all to him of 2022 with his old ukraine with waiting quickly. that hasn't mature lies last year, they felt that the counter offensive would be successful and then there would be negotiations and there will be a seas file that has materialized and now this stuff, the reliance of a ceasefire will not happen this year because so it's on the putting this bad thing on the, on from to delivering something in 2025. 0, so now while there was a political rules and helps you, you've trained that before. and they started to realize that this is a long one. this is a long term thing. unfortunately, they have wasted 2 years. just looking at things is europe's in your opinion,

relying too heavily on the us for its defense as well. of course, um it was a cheap option for your pm's bodies. was an increasingly sketchy option and would say starting from robot gates, calling and brussels 2011. that european should be more so for lines. europeans should have listened to the voices that came from washington. resources were not there under the lunatics like donald trump, little serious politicians in washington to tow over and over again. look, if there is a major contingency in the pacific, in china as ramping up on for the so we will be tied down in the pacific will not have the capability to assist you the way we did during the cold war. and over and over again, europeans did not listen to this very reasonable us voices. and now we are facing

the prospect of don't from who is in the even more reasonable american voice because of roughly the same uh, fault concerning uh, china, as the price rent plus he's on purple list agenda. and now of course, within a very short amount of time, people are still kind of leave off for the midst of things and for all the stuff we didn't do. oh, the entire posts decade. so thank you very much for talking with us. that was christoph, great, so of the european council on foreign relations, let's say look at some other stories making headlines today. police in india have fired tear gas to hold the procession of farmers heading to the capital daily. the protest march follows a breakdown of talks with the government in which farmers have been demanding better crump prices, agriculture employees. 2 thirds of india is 1400000000 people. when we're us

present, donald trump has appealed to the supreme court. in the case of his criminal prosecution for trying to overturn the 2020 elections cut. trump claims he is immune from prosecution to be able to function, is asking the top judges to put on hold a lower court ruling, and thereby to life is trial guidelines jailed. former premier techs and shinall watch has been granted. parole. officials said the decision was made in full accordance with regulations. accent is currently being treated at a police hospital. he was serving a 12 month sentence after returning to thailand. after years in exile or indonesia is set to elect a new president on wednesday. 3 candidates for facing all, but with one clear favorite, prob, prob, bootable. so be until has the backing of current present ciocca window and is leading the polls from over has been a staple of in the nation politics for decades and is

a controversial figure. he has been accused of human rights abuses during indonesia has dictatorship is rod will say they will offer the country a needed change. dancing for victory at one of the last pain days in the city of may done no of us. this is trouble. most of these turns lead to me just defense minister, but you looks like a good fit to be come to countries. next president, he's holding big complain, events, and offering isn't big or promises to the nation. lot of take very improve the life of our people to get rid of everything. it's probably these 30, this time us the packing or form arrivals. president jacoby toby's eldest son, this up for vice president with probable for what will be team number 2 on the ballast vote for on february 14th

number 2 and look, especially the young people. if you come across any negative campaigns above shows on social media, got the business. just ignore this done on the file as there are plenty of those young people, more than half of indonesia as electrical voters on the 14 bubble who is 72. and was the son in law to dictate as to how to has been accused of human rights. but on social media, he presents himself as a cuddly friends of offering to continue to call these reforms his competitors, like from a to a contract governor on east bus sweet on running team. number one, leave the country. it's ready to refill. we see the rice is expensive, but are the farmers prosperous? there are murphy is out. there tends to be around to cases what is needed here.

his author is change, but he's based on the details that fits with guns up removal and his team. number 3, he's far behind to the polls proposal free along with the 1st round out, right? things to get interesting in a run. because they're potential, you could team up with one of your opponents, like with the i'm is a next i've been talking about it, but the 2nd round seems unlikely. jacoby is not allowed to run again, but has not to remain neutral as he hosted all 3 candidates at the presidential palace during the campaign. everyone knew he put his full political weight behind the proposal, and his son keep running. there should be something that they have been working on right in the 3rd and for that support. i think part of the pushy but then is that

uh, quite significant role for the brand. as the, as the vice president, if they are elected, which are probably asked to leave the political stage in southeast asia, because the economy could retain significant influence behind the scenes. now it's up to $205000000.00 voters to decide if this is the music. they want the next president i asked the w's agent, pacific bureau chief york matches who filed that report. what kind of policies probable so biando is advocating. terry, let's put it this way. introduces could vote a 1st time for the current presidents to go. we, um, we took over, you have a total, and then that is actually what they would do. and the person who stands for the legacy of, of the decade as indonesian say, here, of a decade of stability and prosperity that the jacoby has has brought. then this is

a problem, most of young people, he is talking a lot about continuing the reforms of the current president. he's talking about popular programs like a free lunch for school children that he wants to provide services. he talks about the goals and indonesia, off 20 of $45.00. and that really is the problem for it is competitors because people are so contempt with what they had in the past decade. that it's really difficult to say, you know, we need a radical change from, from what we had in the past of a, however, here's a bit of a dark pass. doesn't he get or does it including allegations of human rights abuses is, is that proving a liability for him? i think 1st of all, this goes to show how important social media campaigns are half of the electro. it is under 40 here in indonesia and they consume a lot of social media. and the problem with the team is running a super efficient campaign, present them him and him as

a cuddly grandfather. grandpa. if you want someone who, who holds the florida and continues the heritage of, of the current president. and so the dark past as something goes on the forty's a don't remember. and let's, let's be clear of the bobo was number of prosecutors. he was honorably discharged. there were allegations about human rights abuses, and the d orchestrate is the kidnapping of effectiveness. but none of that has been proven, and frankly, it hasn't damaged his campaign. a lot of it was hardly mentioned during those past months of competing. as he mentioned, the current president joe co without it has been a popular leader. how much influence is he having on the campaign deal? uh yeah, i would say here uh picture say more than a 1000 words. there is this one post or election post or where you see trouble and copays some deep wrong and uh, probably in the background like

a god father leaning over the 2 of them. and if you look for a controversial issue in this electoral race, it is really the fact that to call we have not even to worst trouble was a candidate which is what we have been illegal. but he really showed up on numerous occasions together with proposal. it's an open secret that he has thrown as his political wage behind this one candidates. and that is something that many of the nations have objected to. there were the experts i have talked to as that's a, this has not undermined indonesian democracy. there's still a strong civil society in indonesia that oppose democracy. but uh, is this a political dynasty of the making? that's what a lot of experts say, yes, that is the case. care. thank you very much. that was there is a pacific bureau chief new york motus in jakarta. it is carnival time, and celebrations are taking place this week in parts of germany in northern italy and of course brazil. hundreds of thousands of people are lining the streets and
