the, the, you're watching the, the unit is coming to you live from berlin. carmella harris makes her 1st campaign stop at the battleground, state of wisconsin, as endorsements and donations flood and delegates are raleigh and behind. joe biden, vice presidential, vice president to take on. and donald trump, for the white house, also coming up on our show, israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu, who travels to washington, looking for support for israel and the conduct of the war. it's cost that china brokers a declaration between the arrival policy in groups, hamas, and hottest on forming a unity governments,

police and this place to buy russian fonts, ukraine's child cancer patients are being forced to travel for treatment abroad after missile damage their hospital, the hello and clare richardson, thank you so much for joining us. we start the program in the united states where donations and delegates support are flooding in to bolster combo harris is likely nomination. as the democrats presidential candidates to take a look here, the states are about to see marked in blue show state delegations that have endorsed her bid for the white house she needs. the majority of almost $4000.00 delegates to be confirmed as the candidate at the democratic national convention in august. according to a survey from the associated press,

she has crossed the threshold almost 2700, have pledged to back her, giving her a comfortable majority. harris took over president biden's campaign headquarters in delaware and received her 1st endorsement from the president and at 1st speech to campaign workers since j barge and abruptly entities election campaign, the vice president seemed energetic. he plays the president who is pulling in and speak of certain from craven isolation. i love joe, in jail. we really do. they truly are like family the other way and we know you are still there. you're not going anywhere. i love you. after the emotional passing, the ph thomas went off to have it public, an opponent leaning into her background as a public prosecutor,

she said she'd taken own perpetrators of all kinds. creditors who abused women, fraudsters, ripped off consumers. cheaters who broke the rules for their own game. so hear me when i say, i know donald trump's type, the it was in the a day earlier, the president pardon abandoned his big somebody election quickly giving his endorsement to have it. since then, the num, the prominent democratic endorsements for the vice president has been growing wrong . good by the hour in the list includes for my house speaker, nancy pelosi bill and hillary clinton and of widely anticipated arrival for the nomination, california governor, governor newsome. he was also among names floated as potential running mates,

encouraging 1000 michigan. governor gretchen with mountains and pennsylvania, governor judgeship pay the both states a critical to winning electrolyte to november. it's looking increasingly such and the terrace will be the democratic candidate that is only the fast title. so in the next $106.00 days, we have work to do. we have doors to knock on. we have people to talk to, we have phone calls to make and we have an election to win. c the vice president has allowed them to do list that includes choosing a running mate and to building a campaign effective enough to defeat donald trump. so it does appear. cromwell harris has a clear path to the nomination here. but does she have this all wrapped up? i put that to william, a blue cross to deputy editor of the parliament magazine. kind of ours does have the 2 things you need to be the nominee, which is money and delegates,

and the party behind her. of that said, it can still be an open process. the democratic party has said they want an open process and they do have this challenge of appearing open and democratic and transparent. but at the same time, not a lot of time to couple less around a candidate and a democracy or a democratic methods are not executive, fastest way to make decisions. so that balance is something that's gonna be a challenge, both for the harris campaign and the democratic party to make it appear that come with harris really has earned the spot even if she formerly speaking has the, has the upper hand with the money in the delegates. to their you've mentioned this, so she does indeed cc wracking in the funding that you need for something like a u. s. presidential campaign are raising record donations in the 1st day of her candidacy. where's this money coming from? well 1st we should say that it's the big donor, so essentially, james, joe bite and right is those really, really rich employers sold donors, the donor class, that essentially is the what tipped the tip things over for

a bite. and finally, making this decision to bow out because it was affecting not just him, but democrats up and down the ticket. but it's small donors who appear to be stepping up right now to back couple of harris. the big donors are there, of course, as well. they always are, but there's a lot of enthusiasm in the energy right now with a democratic party about this change, this change of wind, which is causing a lot of normal people to put up small sums of money, 20 bucks, 50 bucks, a 100 bucks. what have you, in these opening days? what's gonna, what the big question is, is 10. pamela harris really ride this momentum, this energy into a full fledged campaign. because of course, there is this, this spirit of energy out of the box right now. we have to see in the next days and weeks if that kind of a support for her will continue. well, and let's talk about harris has potential vice presidential take many suggesting it could well be a white man from a swing state. can you explain what this thinking there is? yeah, i wish it weren't so reduction as to when it comes to figuring out the so called

balancing of a ticket. if you have a white man on top, we saw this a joe by june 2020 day, very explicitly said we want a woman and we want a woman of color. i wish it could be more about, you know, ideas and what people stand for. but unfortunately, politics is optics and identity politics very much is politics on both the left and right of the spectrum. and there are swing states to think about. there are perfectly voters to think about the people in the middle. possibly people who might vote for donald trump against their best. they're better in things, but maybe now can be pulled back into the democratic camp. come on air as we should notice. no, regardless how the republicans will painter, not a progressive, not unless the person she is very much of centrist. i'm very actually quite conservative on some issues in a democratic sense. so they're going to be looking at those aspects as well when it comes to running me, but most likely, having that man about governor, possibly some with executive experience. a lot of course terrace now has executive

experience as vice president almost the last 4 years. looking at what we found that our port, pennsylvania, north carolina, arizona, as just some of the potential places that the democrats might be looking for to as base a balance that take a couple of hours. and what does this all tell us about how republicans will adjust to their strategy going forward? um, are there any of the occasions we seen so far about how they will try to challenge a harris lead ticket? oh, absolutely. i think i think there they are. campaign strategy doesn't change, they just swap out your bite and, and put it in come a lot, harris. they basically tie harris to all of biden's, what they see as failures, abysmal failures. i think that's quite questionable despite and has actually pushed through quite a bit of a legislation in an otherwise very divisive time. but from the republican and the trump people, they're saying that this is nicest. bailey was especially hammering home immigration and inflation. we can go into more depth about just how much control

the president has over those. how much that is more structural issues that go beyond any one president. but nonetheless, that's what they're going to be sticking onto. pamela harris, just as they would have done with joe biden worst president in history, as they say, paris will be along with that. another question will be, will american voters here that will they buy that, that, that line of reasoning, or will they not blame harris for that? will harris's other attributes be enough to get her through? well, thank you so much for that analysis. that is william blue cross the deputy editor of the parliament magazine. how we could bring you up to speed now with some other world news headlines. the head of the u. s. secret surface has admitted the agency failed to protect donald trump from an assassination attempt in pennsylvania. earlier this month, speaking to lawmakers and congress director kimberly cheetos said she took the full responsibility for any lapses in security, but she refused calls to resign. coming to run some democrats and republicans,

the committee, a russian american journalist, also carma shave a has been sentenced to 6 and a half years in prison. after a rapid and secret trial, an editor for us funded radio free europe radio, liberty. she has been accused of spreading false information about the russian army . she says she is innocent and her employer has called it a mockery of justice. israel has confirmed the dots of 2 more hostages in gaza. they were held together in hon. eunice and are believed to have died several months ago when the is rarely army. it was operating in the area. israel says $116.00 hostages or their bodies still remain in gaza after being abducted on october 7th. as well as prime minister benjamin netanyahu is visiting washington d. c. his 1st trip since the october 7th attacks on israel by hamas. and it comes at a time when relations between his government and the bite and administration are under

massive strain that said, yahoo has been resisting pressure from washington to agree a ceasefire with whom us. he w janelle de milan takes a look now at how this visit could bring those tensions back out into the open since prime minister benjamin netanyahu and president joe biden last saw each other in september ties between the 2 countries have only become more tense. and when the israeli leader makes a speech to the us congress on wednesday, experts say he hopes this message would convince more than just the gathers lawmakers. he goes to audiences in mind. one is the american audience. and he wants to build support for israel build support for his role in congress. reinforce is really us ties is also thinking about domestic audience. so many israelis are upset without the worst gone. they're upset about the hostages. he wants to demonstrate that he hasn't destroyed us is really relations or some of his

political critics argue what he is much less interested in. that is what dividing whitehouse things concerns over israel's rifle. offensive in may prompted the west to stop certain arms shipments of israel. and the video netanyahu released claiming that the white house was withholding even more support than it had made public put further strain on the relationship. but that the israeli leader has also yet to express full support for a new westbrook cease fire hostage deals essentially blocking a path to peace. that's especially troubling and washington will humiliate biden, frankly, by showing up without having agreed to a cease fire deal. i think the interest of patient was that by the end of july, you know, with this war and it's 9 months that there would have been a cease fire that there would be a plan for what happens afterwards. this is not the right time. if he had accepted a ceasefire months ago and begun to reconstruction process in gaza,

perhaps at home, this really opposition and also called for netanyahu to either analysis acceptance of the hostage deal in front of congress. or not go to washington at all. but my roman who's relative is still being held by hum austin garza so she'll be going to the west capital to try to keep the spotlight on the remaining hostages. rather than on politics. there are hostage families that are coming with him and he's going to talk about of uh, the deal we've been through. and all of those things are true and important for people to remember. i just feel like if he talks about those things without being committed to a deal, then he is doing a disservice. he's basically taking our pain and using it for game and not for our purposes, not for bringing back our loved ones. my roman will be in congress to watch, not in yahoo, but more than a dozen democrat law makers say they'll show their opposition to israel's conduct

of the war and gaza by staying away. as a hostage still hanging in the balance of mid criticism back home. did all these correspond to? tanya kramer now has more on what kind of message netanyahu will be trying to bring to us lawmakers or? well, i think the sense in is read as, as his visit in washing has become just much more complicated for the to know because of the withdrawal of presidential biden, from the presidential race. and the to now has to work a very fine line here also because this visit comes as a very low point between the u. s. and is ready relations. now it is not clear when the meeting that's very much looked at yet aside from the speech in congress. on wednesday, there was supposed to be a meeting between a terabyte and, and prime minister benjamin netanyahu at the white house because of finds a cobit 19 infections such as clear when this will be scheduled. but it will be

very interesting to see the dynamic between the 2 liter state relationship has been strained. although we have to say us support for the war and gaza has been very strong with a continuous arms as supplies to israel. but both he does have not seen eye to eye in many decisions. and it's, it's talked about to you that to abide now that he dropped out of the race. could also think about his legacy and could put or sort of more pressure on a prime minister benjamin netanyahu. now, on the other hand, we also understand that now i would also look to mentors was a presidential candidate. donald trump, the husband of trust relationship between the 2, y as of trump was president, but this relationship has also suffered. but as you say, hanging over all of this is the question of the hostages that remain in gauze. and there's a sense, it is right, at least in the media, but also people are talking about it that mean that you know, is out of touch with the public sentiment. most of it,

majority of the public wants to see the hostages to come home, although maybe not everybody's happy with such a do. but that's a do that also was put forward a buy to buy it and it hasn't really closed yet. and there will be also protests, we understand the expected 5 of relatives and of families of to hostages that travel to washington separately, that to protest against nathan yahoo there in washington. it was tanya kramer for us in jerusalem. now arrival, palestinians factions including hamas and hottest say they have signed a declaration in china on ending a long running breast. the 2 groups have competed for power and gaza and the west bank for years. now the so called beijing declaration is aimed at strengthening, posting in unity and involves more than a dozen palestinian factions. i'm also is considered a terrorist group by the u. s. e. u and other states, but not by china is route quickly projected the agreement it's for administer

saying how my says role would be crushed. it's a pack that could and years of infighting between rival palestinian factions, representatives from fatah and how mass have inc. what host china calls a national unity deal. it also includes a dozen other palestinian groups. the outcome has defied expectations as previous attempts that bridging their divisions have failed. and mass runs guides a while fatah controls parts of the occupied westbank. after feuding for nearly 2 decades, they have committed to a new chapter. what do you know? today we signed an agreement for national unity and we believe that this is the path to completing our journey audience. we are committed to national unity and we called for us on the, when the china,

unlike many western nations, does not consider him as a tear organization. the pact is a major diplomatic to for broker beijing. china is keen to bolster its influence in the region and to present itself as a peace maker on the international stage. after repeating calls for a cease fire in gaza, beijing laid out it's vision for the territory post war stores, which is the 2nd step is to uphold the principle of palestinians governing palestine and to work together to advance the paced will governance of gaza. the will has left gaza, devastated and an early start to paste will reconstruction has become an urgent issue in the next stage. but israel has vowed to eliminate how mass for carrying out the october 7 terror attacks and firmly rejects their involvement in governing gazda. the future of the strip is a major sticking point,

as israel and how mass way and internationally backed ceasefire proposal. i asked, i've made up a joe from chatham house, whether this declaration will hold, given that many previous ones have fallen apart. the short answer is i don't expect major developments out of this declination. i think it was not to produce re and unity or reconciliation because the disagreements between from, from, especially are structural found or not related to the lights issues. and these issues are related to inclusion of from us and such and to the people organization, the elections and the changes in audiological doctrines that govern both from us. i don't so the believe in the peaceful negotiations with israel to reach bees under the umbrella the also the court. so

these issues with not discussed and i don't think they would go away and talk to them. so as far as we know, none of these fundamental structural issues were addressed in the deal. were there any areas where you saw breakthroughs that you would say or notable? some of them were encouraging the, the, the elections, for example, it was under the coloration. also the forming the formation of unity government, which is a mass demand for so long and such a didn't want this to happen. it is included in the declaration. but the problem is, the declaration is predicated on a decision by president my what are the best, who opposes all this. secondly, it doesn't include any concrete timeframe or implementation mechanism for a v, a frightful outcomes to become reality. so just like other declarations and agreements and chiral, so not make

a jury's endorse. and even in most going february, i don't think they will lead to any concrete developments on the ground. it is interesting that the devil of course and the detail um, but how likely would you say it is that at some point in the future we do see what they've basically agreed to, which is the formation of a unity government for the administration of post war gaza the, the 2 sides came very close to agreeing to the formation of a unity government in february. but in mos the president, the bus at big not that and he formed a prime ministers mohammed and stuff was government, which is in place. now. we would have to wait and see if that declination comes from the presidency saying we have to dissolve this government for the sake of the new proposed unity government. this will be a major change. secondly, i think the main objective of, of thought is 3,

or consists of 3 elements. the 1st is it wants to increase its popularity in the street, and within functions within foothill and poor dogs. full of mind, what are the best, who are angry with the language coming from the presidency towards how my 2nd it wants to block from us inclusion into the the low and said, most importantly, i think it has to be little prepared with the for the uncertainty coming from the united states now that president barton decided to pull out of the elections. i think one of our best is predicting uncertainty if trump becomes president and we saw this behavior from what are best in 2020 off the president trump proposed the deed of the century, negotiations between the palestinians and these where he lives before. oh, it's all right, i will go from chatham house in london speaking to me there. but you take a quick look now at some other news headlines. at least 150 people have been killed

in 2 lands lives in southern. if you hear the death toll has risen significantly over the past 24 hours as authorities continue the search for survivors and the mountainous region. officials to say women and children are among the casualties. the indian prime minister and the render motives government has unveiled spending plans of billions of dollars to create new jobs and to satisfy t coalition partners. this is the 1st budget since moody was re elected with a reduced mandate earlier this year. it aims to win back loaders and retain political supports for anyone who has been through it as a patient or a parent. it is hard to imagine a situation more stressful and a child diagnosed with cancer. but what happens when they're diagnosed in a war zone for many children in ukraine? it means battling brutal circumstances to have a chance at life. in the middle of his treatment for cancer, little demetrius and his family have been forced by russian bonds to lead their

doctors and their country. there was an opportunity to start treatment abroad, but we decided enough my deeds because we think this institution provides treatment at the european level. i have 2 older son's. my plan was to get through this. everything would be fine. they would come to visit and then we'd leave the hospital and be together again. 6 it would've been easier for both my child and for me. but unfortunately, after the terror attack by the russians were forced to go abroad. 3 year old demitrix was diagnosed with leukemia in june and had already begun treatment when a russian missile struck the hospital doing several people. reconstruction work has already begun, and doctors continued to treat patients here before we left, before the uh, merger probably knew the blast wave damage almost half of the wing of the department which was intended to perform intensive,

high dose chemotherapy regimens. those of laurie, she knew that i'd be almost somebody to know we're doing our best to provide children with conditions in which treatment can continue to california. interesting indeed, the key to keeping a smaller bus are now when the parents who want to be relocated can do so. so those are and those who want to can stay for treatment and the commodities so far. 8 patients and their families have chosen to leave for another country. their trip was arranged with help from the ukrainian government, as well as the world health organization and the european commission. the buses are specially equipped to transport cancer patients whose immune systems are compromised by their treatment. so we have so called i pc mattress. it's infection prevention control measures which is very close to varying mosques, maybe varying goals and isolate for patients from each other. so they should not touch each other, etc. we have um,

teams which i work specifically on one patient. the bus is headed to an airport in poland, where the families will catch flights to their final destinations. demetrius is going to a hospital in munich. it's a long journey, but he's excited to fly in a plane for the 1st time. his father asks him to wave from the sky. unfortunately, he doesn't know how long he won't see his dad and his brothers. but we're going to call for going to color boys and viber, right? there's hope for demetrius and his family. the survival rate of his type of cancer is over 80 percent for pico. let's get a reminder of our top story at this hour. a couple of harris has hit the campaign trail starting with the battleground states of wisconsin, since joe biden dropped out of the presidential race 2 days ago to nations have flooded in, and the democrats have rallied behind her bed to become the parties now many, to take on donald trump in november selection, that
