hungary says it won't block nato efforts to provide security and training for ukraine, but says it won't play any active role either. more on that and what it means in just a moment. sport, and for a full round—up from the bbc sport centre, here's marc edwards. hi, ben. india have continued their unbeaten run at the t20 world cup to reach the super 8s. they were given a fright, though, in their seven—wicket win over co—hosts usa. chasing a modest 111, india made a spluttering start to their reply. usa bowler saurabh netravalkar dismissing superstar virat kohli for a golden duck. the indian—born player will be dining out on that for a while,

and he took another quick wicket to leave india reeling at 10—2. but in the end, an assured 50 from suryakumar guided them to victory with ten balls to spare. england cricket coach matthew mott says he hopesjosh hazlewood's comments were "tongue in cheek" after the australian bowler suggested they could potentially have a hand in knocking england out at the group stage of the competition. australia reached the super 8s unbeaten after a nine—wicket win over namibia, leaving england and scotland to fight it out for second place in the group. australia play scotland next, and the scots�* run—rate could see them through. in this tournament, you could potentially come up against england again. as you said, they are probably one of the top few teams, you know, we have had some newcomers in t20 cricket. if we can get them in the tournament, and it's in our best interest as well, yeah, interesting to see. never been in this position before as a team, i don't think, so whether we have discussions

or not, we willjust try to play it the way we do tonight. they will be up to people, not me. and here's what matthew mott had to say about the comments. i'm going to be totally honest here, i haven't heard them in the context. i was informed about them this morning, but knowing josh, he's got a pretty dry sense of humour. i'm hoping it was very much tongue—in—cheek. i don't think it's ever going to play out. i think having grown up in australia, the will to win every game that you're in, i'm sure that will come to the fore. i'm very much hoping it wasjust an offhand remark by a really good bloke who's having fun. football now, borussia dortmund captain emre can has been given a late call—up to the germany squad for the european championship. the former liverpool man replaces bayern munich's alexander pavlovic, who was forced to pull out with tonsilitis. pavlovic only made his national debut on the 3rd ofjune, but was named injulian nagelsmann�*s squad for the tournament. the hosts kick off their euro 2024 campaign on friday against scotland, who are now well settled into their base in garmisch—partenkirchen.

midfielder billy gilmour is looking forward to testing himself against the likes of toni kroos, and with the competition getting ever closer, the brighton player is embracing the excitement. scotland's so passionate, especially about football. we're all rooting for their country, and everyone wants us to do well. and for us, we want to give it everything we've got to get back to ourfans, and loads of scottish fans coming over. we know there will be loads at home as well watching. there's a real buzz around the country. i thank you can tell that straightaway, everything you see. england, meanwhile, prepare to face serbia in gelsinkirchen on sunday, and one player who could feature is adam wharton. it's been an incredible year so far for the crystal palace midfielder. injanuary, he was playing in a blackburn rovers side struggling in the championship. fast forward five months, and the 20—year—old is in the mix for a starting spot at england's opening euro 2024 match.

and send a strong signal to russia. it is seen as a strategic move ahead of november's us presidential election and concerns of a potential shift in us foreign policy. at this meeting, i expect that ministers will approve a plan for nato to lead the coordination of security assistance and training to ukraine. this is a key element for our package for ukraine at the washington summit along with long—term financial commitment. since russia's full—scale invasion in 2022, allies have provided a0 billion euros in military support to ukraine each year. we must maintain this level of support as a minimum and for as long as it takes. earlier in the day, mr stoltenberg was in budapest. there, hungarian prime minister

viktor 0rban confirmed the country would not take part in nato—led efforts to provide security assistance for kyiv, but will not block them either. mr 0rban is moscow's closest ally in the european union. nato members are due to meet in washington next month to discuss long—term military and financial support for ukraine. mr 0rban spoke after the meeting and said hungary had been granted "everything it found necessary". translation: it's well-known that hungary's position - differs from the majority of nato member states. to the question of how to move from this war situation to peace in the shortest possible way, hungary gives different answers than the others. hungary acknowledges that the weight and number of different opinions are significant. for more on this, we can speak to ivo daalder, former us ambassador to nato and now chief executive officer of the chicago council

on global affairs. thank you for being on the programme. let's start first of all with nato taking control of what they say the planning of arms deliveries. this is essentially them taking control before a potential change in who is in the white house come november.— change in who is in the white house come november. well, that's part of it. this is come november. well, that's part of it- this is a — come november. well, that's part of it. this is a coalition _ come november. well, that's part of it. this is a coalition that _ come november. well, that's part of it. this is a coalition that has - come november. well, that's part of it. this is a coalition that has in - it. this is a coalition that has in fact— it. this is a coalition that has in fact been— it. this is a coalition that has in fact been led _ it. this is a coalition that has in fact been led by— it. this is a coalition that has in fact been led by the _ it. this is a coalition that has in fact been led by the united - fact been led by the united states and was _ fact been led by the united states and was pulled _ fact been led by the united states and was pulled together— fact been led by the united states and was pulled together by- fact been led by the united states and was pulled together by the i and was pulled together by the united — and was pulled together by the united states, _ and was pulled together by the united states, chaired - and was pulled together by the united states, chaired up- and was pulled together by the united states, chaired up to i and was pulled together by the. united states, chaired up to this point _ united states, chaired up to this point by— united states, chaired up to this point by the _ united states, chaired up to this point by the secretary _ united states, chaired up to this point by the secretary of - united states, chaired up to this| point by the secretary of defence and often — point by the secretary of defence and often the _ point by the secretary of defence and often the chairman - point by the secretary of defence and often the chairman of- point by the secretary of defence l and often the chairman of the joint chiefs— and often the chairman of the joint chiefs of— and often the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff. _ and often the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff. but _ and often the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff. but it _ and often the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff. but it is _ and often the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff. but it is not - and often the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff. but it is not only. chiefs of staff. but it is not only a worry— chiefs of staff. but it is not only a worry about _ chiefs of staff. but it is not only a worry about whether- chiefs of staff. but it is not only a worry about whether a - chiefs of staff. but it is not only a worry about whether a new i a worry about whether a new administration _ a worry about whether a new administration would - a worry about whether a new. administration would continue a worry about whether a new - administration would continue that, it also— administration would continue that, it also makes— administration would continue that, it also makes sense _ administration would continue that, it also makes sense from _ administration would continue that, it also makes sense from not - administration would continue that, it also makes sense from not only. administration would continue that, it also makes sense from not only a practical— it also makes sense from not only a practical but — it also makes sense from not only a practical but a — it also makes sense from not only a practical but a long—term _ practical but a long—term perspective _ practical but a long—term perspective. nato- practical but a long—term perspective. nato is- practical but a long—terml perspective. nato is going practical but a long—term - perspective. nato is going to welcome _ perspective. nato is going to welcome ukraine _ perspective. nato is going to welcome ukraine as - perspective. nato is going to welcome ukraine as a - perspective. nato is going to. welcome ukraine as a member. perspective. nato is going to- welcome ukraine as a member. it has said that _ welcome ukraine as a member. it has said that it— welcome ukraine as a member. it has said that it witt— welcome ukraine as a member. it has said that it will become _ welcome ukraine as a member. it has said that it will become a _ welcome ukraine as a member. it has said that it will become a member. i said that it will become a member. he has— said that it will become a member. he has said — said that it will become a member. he has said just— said that it will become a member. he has said just as _ said that it will become a member. he has said just as the _ said that it will become a member. he has said just as the last - he has said just as the last summit that ukraine's — he has said just as the last summit that ukraine's future _

once again it's a sort of familiar tale that inflation heading in the right direction but not enough, not significant enough of a move to say the interest rate to be coming down anytime soon. the interest rate to be coming down anytime soon-— the interest rate to be coming down anytime soon. that's right, ben. the fed has chosen _ anytime soon. that's right, ben. the fed has chosen to _ anytime soon. that's right, ben. the fed has chosen to hold _ anytime soon. that's right, ben. the fed has chosen to hold steady - anytime soon. that's right, ben. the fed has chosen to hold steady given | fed has chosen to hold steady given the benchmark interest rate at 5.25 or 5.5% and that's been a two decade high. not quite the news americans were looking for but it was very widely in line with expectations. broadly the fed was admitted to keep rates unchanged today. as a prize on the upside is in that cbi read out we get this morning, that the consumer price index, that yearly price increase coming in at 3.3%, a fuller rate of increase in expected and slower than what we saw in april. in fact if you match up month—to—month, we actually see no increase at all between april and may and so that's encouraging news for american consumers and also encouraging news broadly for the fed

as one of many data points taken together but as he will hear from jerome powell not enough to move the needle. we do see today's report as progress and as— we do see today's report as progress and as building confidence that we don't _ and as building confidence that we don't see — and as building confidence that we don't see ourselves as having the confidence — don't see ourselves as having the confidence that would warrant, that would _ confidence that would warrant, that would warrant beginning to loosen poticy _ would warrant beginning to loosen policy at _ would warrant beginning to loosen policy at this time. so this march at seven straight fed meetings without cutting interest rates and there are only four meetings left this year from what we do after meetings like this is we look at the dot plot, a summary of economic projections come in to see what federal reserve members into the bait for the year ahead. if you look at the median projection they are, it's one rate cut before the year is out and so there is that meeting in september which of course would put a rate cut on the table before the november election of members meet later on in november and december. members meet later on in november and december-— members meet later on in november and december. looking at some of the other comments _ and december. looking at some of the other comments there _ and december. looking at some of the other comments there from _ and december. looking at some of the other comments there from the - and december. looking at some of the other comments there from the chair l other comments there from the chair of the fed and noticed we pay a lot

now, how long do you think you could last without your smartphone? a few hours? a day? maybe two at a push? well, we've followed a group of teenagers to see how they cope without their smartphones for five whole days. a new online survey of 2000 young people suggests three quarters of teenagers wouldn't swap their smartphone for a low—tech device thatjust makes calls and sends texts, so we asked ten students to do at one college. our reporter kristianjohnson was there to follow how they got on.

ok guys, point of no return. this group of students are doing the unthinkable — locking their smartphones away. you said your goodbye? no tiktok, no snapchat, no whatsapp. so, guys, these are your new... oh, my god! they're so huge! instead, they'll be using these. the only way of communicating — text and calls. i want a nokia. this is weird, i don't like it. so, in the mornings, usually i like search up the tram times, then i know, oh yeah, i need to leave in five minutes, oh yeah, i've got a little bit of time before i need to leave, but with, like, without a phone, i've got no way of knowing when the next tram will be. ok, so i'm 52 hours into the detox, i'm finding it ok _ i don't think it is - difficult or anything. but charlie's already given into temptation. it's genuinely hard when you don't have it. it's like having a comfort item for how many ever years, and itjust goes. it's really stressful.

some others are struggling, too. not knowing what's going on in a like a groupchat, itjust makes me, what am i missing out on? but most are focusing on the positives. lot of me is like learning stuff and engaging more and noticing stuff around me, which i probably should be noticing any ways, but i'm just too addicted to my phone. i usuallyjust watch, like, disney plus for, like, an hour, and then just drift off, but since then i've just gone straight to sleep and it's weird. it feels much better. the more time goes on, - it becomes a lot easier to think of things to do cos you don't have your phone, so like, i oh, new message. five days on, time to get those smartphones back. is that yours? in general, going on tiktok and everything, i'm so going to do that. if anything, i'm going to do it more now. i'll try and use less - of tiktok, that's for sure. i know my screen time is quite high on that. i perhaps the students aren't quite ready to give up their smartphones entirely, but the detox might start to slowly changes their habits. kristian johnson, bbc news.

i could not cope without. cricket might be the most english of pastimes. it's not something you'd associate with bigger, brasher america. but the us is hosting the t20 world cup. and today, the hosts took on one of the sport's giants, but couldn't quite get past them. india defeated the us by seven wickets, securing their place in the second round of the tournament with one more game to play. all hope is not lost for the us either. they'll have a chance to qualify in a final group match against ireland. joining me now is the daily telegraph's cricket writer tim wigmore. i know you were glued to the screen. what did you make of the match? for the us, what did you make of the match? fr?" the us, it's the first time in the world cup and they've already beaten pakistan and playing the tournament favourites, they did pretty well. they were in the game for a large chunk of india's chase, so i for the

certainly at the top end of american cricket. how significant is it that this t20 tournament is being co—hosted in the us? not only is a cricket but it's t20 because it opens up that sport to a whole new range of fans. yes. because it opens up that sport to a whole new range of fans. yes, from 2015 to last — whole new range of fans. yes, from 2015 to last year, _ whole new range of fans. yes, from 2015 to last year, every _ whole new range of fans. yes, from 2015 to last year, every single - 2015 to last year, every single major men possibly event was held in either australia, england or india so the sport really focused on its core markets rather than expanding in this is been co—hosted between america and the west indies, all over there. so what we are seeing is being taken to a new market and t20 which as you said is the game could take off in america with good signs with mentally cricket. also cricket returned to the lipid games in 2028 in los angeles and that will be another kind of big t20 international event in the us. there is some real optimism in the us that people always had this dream of american cricket in effect us

(zjj9 of the big issues for cricket at the moment in the region of three quarters of its broadcast revenue comes from the indian market. that's a real concern for administrators a part of the reason for this event being in the us and the general push in the us is cricket trying to diversify its economy so as not to rely on one market because in recent years as the indian middle class has grown, that's been the way cricket has got richer but now it's trying to diversify the market and clearly the us, talking about cricket

replacing baseball, that is not going to happen but cricket does not need to do that for the us to be a certificate market and for them to have a very good team with them beating to test nations already. there's no reason in a few years cricket cannot be, a us team cannot be in the top ten in the 20 cricket and that cannot be may be playing tennis cricket and significant source of revenue for the game. {30 source of revenue for the game. go to talk to you, thank you, keep watching. thank you. the acropolis in athens is to close during the hottest hours of the day as greece experiences a heatwave. temperatures are expected to reach 43 celsius over the next couple of days. officals say the archaeological site will close from midday to 5pm during the first heatwave of the year in greece. schools will remain closed in several regions on wednesday and thursday, while the work ministry has advised public sector employees to work from home. back with the panel for un just a second. stay with us here on bbc

news. hello. it's been another day of below average temperatures across most parts of the uk. with that, we've seen a fair amount of cloud, but also a fair amount of dry weather. this cool air mass, though, is set to be replaced by something that — on the face of it — looks a little bit warmer, a change in wind direction. but with that, we see this frontal system pushing in from the west. that will bring some heavy rain and some quite brisk winds. and i think by virtue of the cloud, the rain, the strong winds, it will still feel rather cool for many of us. but, actually, through tonight, it is going to be decidedly chilly where we keep these clear skies overhead. we'll see a few mist and fog patches here and there, cloud and rain then spreading into parts of northern ireland, perhaps the far west of wales, the west of cornwall, by the end of the night here, turning a little bit milder. but where we keep those clear skies, decidedly chilly to start thursday morning.

some parts of scotland out in the countryside starting their day around 2—3 celsius, but with some sunshine. however, this band of cloud and rain will be spreading in across western areas, becoming quite slow moving, actually. so the rain heavy and persistent across the southwest of england and wales, 20—30 millimetres of rain possible. and around some western coasts, gusts of wind of 50 miles per hour or more. quite unusual for this time of year. that rain spreading across the isle of man into north west england, affecting northern ireland, southwestern and central parts of scotland. eastern england holding onto some mostly dry conditions. northern scotland holding on to a little bit of sunshine. temperatures here actually a little bit higher than they have been. we could see highs of 17 degrees now through thursday night into friday, that band of rain will continue to drive its way and northwards lingering, i think across northern parts of scotland for the first part of friday morning and then to the south of that, well, it is a mix of sunny spells and showers. the showers quite plentiful, actually. there'll be lots of them. some will be heavy, some will be thundery. temperatures a little bit higher than they have been, 13—19 degrees,

but that's still a touch below the seasonal average. what about the weekend? well, low pressure will remain in charge of the scene. so that is going to bring showers or longer spells of rain. the showers on saturday will be quite widespread. some of them will be on the heavy side. by sunday, the showers perhaps focusing across the north of the uk, something a little bit drierfurther south, not quite as cool as it has been.

hello, i'm ben thompson. you're watching the context on bbc news. we will not raise tax on working people. that means no tax rises for income tax, national insurance, for vat. our manifesto comes out tomorrow. it is a very forward looking manifesto. but there is nothing in our manifesto that requires us to raise tax. tax cuts for people at every stage of their life. for people in work, for people who are setting up small businesses and self—employed, for those young people want to buy their first home, for pensioners and for families, because i believe people should keep more of their hard earned money now that we're a position to do so having restored economic stability. on the panel tonight, journalist and author jenny kleeman, john manley — politics correspondent for the irish news, and chris morris — ceo of full fact.
