36:01Now PlayingGermany just suffered one of its biggest diplomatic setbacks in decades: losing a UN Security Council seat it thought was practically guaranteed. In this episode of Berlin Briefing, host Nina Haase and her guests, DW's Max Hofmann and UN expert Myriel Marthez, take you inside the vote, inside the backroom diplomacy, and inside the reasons Germany’s campaign collapsed. From Russia’s quiet lobbying to Germany’s stance on Israel and Gaza, from late‑stage ‘speed‑dating diplomacy’ to Austria’s years‑long charm offensive — this is the story of how a global heavyweight got outplayed.
