a day after and it's really stripe on a u. n. run stool. the i bring golf, it's good to have you with us on this friday. you as president biden today, calls on his fellow americans to defend democracy from threats at home and abroad. and he did it with one eye to what happened 80 years ago this week. bite and spoke ad point to hole in france, where american soldiers felt a typical battle during the day, evasion of world war to fight and speech follows. a legend support for ukraine, and it's more against russia. and it comes during a divisive presidential campaign against his republican rival, donald trump. here's more of what's the us president said from france as a guy to her today. it's not just honor those show such
11:02 pm
a remarkable bravery on that day. june 6th, 1944. so much as the echoes of their voices to hear them because they are somebody who is, you know, some of us now they ask us what we do. they're not asking us to scale these cliffs. they're asking us to stay true with america stands for. we're not asking us to give a risk our lives are asking us care for others in our country for that ourselves. they're not asking us to do their job or asking us to do our job, to protect freedom of our time. the found democracy, the style of regression abroad, and at home the par, something bigger than our so it was the was president there during now, but my colleague william blue cross, he was listening and analyzing the words of the us president, when it's good to have you here it was clear who he was talking about,
11:03 pm
but just to whom was the us president speaking? i think you have to t audiences americans at home is european allies on this side of the atlantic. trying to remind americans in an election year. obviously to vote for him, but from his perspective to defend democracy because of course, joe biden is basically pitched himself as the defender against the likes of donald trump for the way of the americas american way of life. that's what he was talking about in a speech he didn't outlined very specifically what he said he was talking about these big things, the democracy, freedom, liberal values. but then, of course, a skittish european public and european allies, european counterparts, trying to make the case that america is not going anywhere that just as american storm to beach is to free europe 80 years ago. they will stand up in a, in an equivalent. i'll be a different way today. if there had not been a donald trump presidency. do you think this speech wouldn't even been made today?
11:04 pm
i mean, donald trump and that his legacy and what could possibly still come that was the driving force behind all of this, wasn't it? sure, but it wasn't the 1st time and us present it came to such a momentous and historic location. like, like the dd landings in northern france to make a grandiose speech about the importance of american democracy of american power in the world. almost every us president has done it day and the world war 2 story more broadly speaking is such an easy story as difficult as the war was. but it's such an easy, black and white good versus evil story to drape upon more complicated, present political issues that we have today. the problem is, yes, that is directly true, right? it really was good versus evil and the free worlds fighting against tyranny. but that was a, if not singular, a rare moment in global history. you can't apply a rare moment to everything all the time. well, i was gonna ask you, these comparisons that are implied that were made into speech are, are they,
11:05 pm
are they correct or are we can fleeting conflicts here? of course, in west africa, even back then these, the so called free world also oversaw colonies around the world. they themselves picked and chose just as we're picking and choosing today, who got to be free and who didn't get to be free and who got to enjoy these values and we didn't so they were discrepancies and double standards there then, and there are today and it's very, very dangerous, or of course, always parallels. of course their parent lost. what the, the, the, the full scale born ukraine that russia has launch is the largest land battle in europe. it seems forward to there's no disputing that but russia is not nazi. germany inviting improvement is not auto hitler. so we have these parallels can only go so far. and it's a, it's a very difficult argument for joe biden to be making, to stand for something bigger than just yourself to make a sacrifice. especially given america's flavor of level democracy, which is about yourself as about the individuals about be doing what's best for you
11:06 pm
. he was speaking also to america's allies, particularly the allies here in europe. because there is this fear that the, the, the alliance is that to have made up our world order for the past 70 years that they could soon fall away. and that's, that's, that's the point, isn't it that you hear in europe? leaders want the status quote to remain. yeah, well, it's very difficult. you have on one hand, criticism of american power, an interest not just from extreme sides of wanting to see america received or wanting to see some kind of re balance. obviously we hear from a manual, mike on 1st and foremost, but also that i can send to here in germany about europe being more of an equal security partner with united states. but the other hand, what does that really mean? and you can be the most critical person of american power and the impact on the consequences that us powers hadn't the world. but if that just went away tomorrow, there would be a massive vacuum, right? that, that would, that could so more chaos. so it's not just, well, let's get rid of the last 80 years. let's get rid of the euro. atlantic a live,
11:07 pm
there needs to be talk of. okay, well, what replace is that what comes next? otherwise, you're looking at a power vacuum, which could make things even more chaotic than they are today. where you, blue cross is always good to see. we appreciate your analysis. thank you. would you, grace president, board of is lensky has held talks with french president emanuel mac cronk after meeting at the unless the palace in paris macro, and promised frances long term support for ukraine's more against russia. you also have denounced what he called the pacifist camp, and the spirit of defeat. earlier france agreed to supplying the raj finder jets and train ukrainian pilots as part of a new military aid package. as well, for instance, promising to send the mirage fighter jets to ukraine by the end of the year i asked the military analysts frank lead, which if that's too late to fend off russia's offence. yeah, so not going to be, well, we're not going to be see seeing them in useful quantities and they'll probably get
11:08 pm
abroad. 25 from france eventually. well into next year. even then i would question whether the integration of the system, the there are 2000 system. there's a 1990 is designed this particular parent, i guessing a question whether that will be complete even that we met. we're looking out to you . but it will provide a capability when it provide tape extra capability, probably not. what it will provide is capacity, which is to say more jets. the problem is, so it is an old yet. there are concerns about age. as with that email that she had across the important element is what's in them, know what the frame does. so that's the a, the onyx is not k yet what they will be supplied with. but yes, it's better than nothing. if i with the ukrainians, however, i'd be looking at switch swedish out across much more suitable much more up to date sweets. it keeps the plan with actually rather than just multiply and the number of
11:09 pm
the frames and logistics chains. what if, when you, when you say i'm sometime late next year, i mean, it sounds like you're expecting this more to last to walk longer than has, has been predicted. i mean, is, is that what we're seeing with these promises of mirage fighter jets as well? i think so. i think brent the this is emma, this is positive. it's maybe a political gesture, i think. but what would say now we haven't seen for the last 2 years is a sense of the, of, of a sustainment for the ukrainian military. another was looking ahead more than next month. so the next couple of months. what we need to be seeing is looking out to 510 years to provide you quite not only with the ability to at least defend themselves now, but also to do to future regression alongside execution, nato allies. so this is a long term commitment on i think it's white that it is whether the will will last not long, but i don't have my crystal. i don't know. i know to you or anybody else. that was
11:10 pm
military analysts, frank language. there are, let's take a look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world, denmark's prime minister that frederickson has been attacked in copenhagen. it's still unclear whether she was injured, but her office says that she is in shock. only say they've arrested demand allegedly involved in the assaults politicians from across all political parties and express their support for the prime minister of india as president, as formerly appointed in arrange remote e as prime minister for a 3rd term, his national democratic alliance. one of the most seats and recently helped general elections. his own party, however, failed to secure a majority of the will be sworn into office on sunday and explosion at a hardware store in the remaining unit town up. but shaw has injured at least 13 people for the series. the victims report of the suffered various dramas and burns local authorities said the incident may have been caused by a malfunction as

11:12 pm
alex saw yay! is with saved the children international. she told me more about this report. exactly. i mean the report hasn't come out yet, but what we know is, is that which one has confirmed that israel will be listed? and we know we welcome this decision because the, the pace and scale upgrade violations committed against children and gaza has been unprecedented. we also expect to have called on housing as long as you hide and from us to also be listed. and you know where we expect the report to come out in a couple of weeks. what we have seen in gaza is just completely unprecedented. that the scale of violations against children, including the killing of children, the meaning of children and the denial of humanitarian assistance against children has just been absolutely, absolutely catastrophic. and, you know, human rights organizations in humanitarian organizations have continued to call for
11:13 pm
us fire and gaza. this is the only way to save lives and it's the only way for humanitarian organizations like hours to deliver the humanitarian assistance needed at scale. at the moment, this report is being compiled by the human special representative for children in the armed conflict, beyond naming and shaming. what, what do you have? what's the best best case scenario to come out of this report as well? this is one step towards accountability. so that's very important to remember, but to have a concrete impact on children's lives. what we need is a cease fire. we have also called on governments supplying weapons to parties on the ground to also stop doing so and stop fueling this price is the only thing that will make an impact right now is a c spot or, and that's important to remember. i'm sure you're aware of israel's prime minister, has criticized the decision by the un,
11:14 pm
israel's ambassador to the un. it's called it disgusting. of the leadership, obviously angry. what does it mean for democratic countries or for the army of a democratic country to be included in this kind of report? you know, these kinds of reports should not be politicized any government, any party that commits great violations against children should be listed. it's important that we hold these actors to account and that was with the, you know, and call on them to stop their violations against children. no government, no entity should be above the law. alex, save from save the children international alex, we appreciate your time tonight. thank you. thank you. are you watching these have you do is here's a reminder of our top story. you as president biden as appealed for the defense of democracy at the side of the day landings in normandy, he about the legacy of world war 2 veterans saying that america has to stay true to
