12:05 pm
a the night in the us but exactly the above was focused very much on on donald trump in their speeches. i'm just wondering what that's all about the obviously that's precinct. there's the converted inside the convention hall. but what's the point of such messages? were they trying to reach beyond the convention hall to undecided voters to think it appeals to them? of course, they got big cheers when they went after donald trump in the hall, registered democrats cheering them on when they attacked on from they pitched it as we are the big 10 party of adults, of decency and from for a presents the strain of, of anger sol, jenny, michelle obama called him ugly massage, and this they called and said he had braces, he always gave races lies. brock obama talked about his childish nicknames as a substitute for you ideas. so there pitch was that we are the party of adults, but that pitch was actually my opinion also to the independent voters and also

trump supporters who are starting to give up on this politics of grievance, we saw a speech from his former press secretary, stephanie christian, who said that this kind of a mean spiritedness that he uses to attack his enemies. he also talks about his supporters like that behind closed doors. she said that was 1st her, her 1st hand account. so there are a lot of republicans out there who are look back to the former years of republican party and say, i want to go back to this kind of decency. the problem there though is there is a lot of grievance in the united states. there are a lot of people who are fed up with the way things are going to know that their lives were better off before the inflation before the pandemic. and they, they, they want real policies to address those issues. well, there is a lot of emotion in this presidential campaign on, on both sides. what about the substance? what about policy, particularly with cala harris. what is she offering to help get her self across the line? well, she is in a very strange predicament. here is not unique in american politics,
12:07 pm
but she's the sitting vice president. so she is part of the current administration . so while the obama is, are presenting or as hoping change, she actually represents the establishment at this point. so she needs to distance himself from the unpopular policies are fighting while the same time presenting her policy so far. it's been light on that the obama's and everybody else doing the work of, of building her character ups. the voters good to know her. but the real hard policies haven't dropped, she does have a line on a portion of various popular that's during the because of the supreme court, the way that the trump, uh, set it up with his nominees, abortion has been left to the states to decide. and she says she wants to turn that into law in the us. so taking away from the court and saying it's protecting women's rights by law, but she hasn't really dropped her big pauses yet. we're expecting that in the coming days towards is her running made. he's supposed to speak at the next day of the convention and on thursday. that's her big day. well,
12:08 pm
she will give her speech and hopefully present some policies to address the grievances of americans. i mean, thank you so much. our correspondent. i mean, i mean it's a sketch up on a few other stories making headlines around the world today. the tell about have barred you and special rep or tour richard bennett from entering afghanistan. they've accused him of spreading propaganda against the country. then it has previously said that the tell about the treatment of women and girls could amount to a crime against humanity. indian prime minister and no render emoji has called for the return of peace as he embarks on a journey to poland and then ukraine. this is the 1st visit by an indian prime minister since diplomatic relations were established with ukraine over 30 years ago . as calm as just weeks after, moody was criticized from bracing rushes. vladimir putin in moscow present approaching, made an unexpected visit to chechnya for the 1st time. in 13 years he held talks

with robins. i'm cut, they're all the leader of the mainly muslim republic, which is also part of the russian federation. as part of his visit preteen and career of tour, the military training facility which trains chechen fighters for rushes more in ukraine. this your secretary of state has the blinking has left kata his last stop on a diplomatic tour aimed at brokering a cease fire and hostage release deal between israel and tomas in gaza. earlier he spoke to tarry leaders who have been pivotal and trying to mediate the deal, blake and said israel has accepted a new bridging proposal, but from us which committed the october 7th terrorist attacks has accused this rule of making changes to the proposal. go against what, how much agreed to last month. blake, and spoke to reporters before flying out of kata. he rebuffed media reports
12:10 pm
suggesting that these really leader benjamin netanyahu had force changes to the plan, including, leaving is really troops in some areas of gossip. united states does not accept any long term occupation of gaza by israel and more specifically, the agreement is very clear on the schedule and the locations of ideas scrawls from, from gaza. and israel has agreed to that. so while ago i spoke with journalist carina mcguire in egypt, i asked him where things stand. now in the ceasefire negotiations, it doesn't look very promising and how much is saying that they want to go back to the binding plan. they agreed to it in july already and the in this packet share of the bible plan, there was the possibility of a permanent satisfy it in the for this role of these really forces. now i'm seeing
12:11 pm
at that is right. is it any new terms to this preaching proposal? there is no more guarantee for a permanent tools and there is no for withdrawal. and all these really troops, no matter what, slinking just to come and take us in the era of media saying that this new business suggested by you can go as it's a good deal is in reality it has to be for the kind of students. so there's another paysimple on the air upside also right up to silence from the other mediators to contact you about the suggestions and the pond list, it seems it was yesterday. and then the u. s. f. l. spreadsheet proposal. journalist carino glory there in cairo. now, russian senior security official, dmitri, my bet jeff has ruled out peace talks with key after ukraine's incursion into the
12:12 pm
course region. but video, who currently serves as the deputy head of russia security council, said there will be no tops until ukraine is completely defeated on the battlefield . ukraine's incursion, intercourse goes now, entering its 3rd week. steve says the surprise attack is aimed establishing a buffer zone and disrupting last goes combat operations. well, ukraine's incursion has added a further incentive for russia to recruit soldiers for the front line. one of the motivations for soldiers is to uh, to sign up seems to be money with cash offers the volunteers, but it appears new recruits are being sent to course, which is causing some descent among their families. these men are ready to join the ranks of the russian army after your cranes incursion. at least according to russian stay. tv will wish it almost as firstly to help my country. my people beat the fascists and get back the territory. they cease to the beginnings of watching
12:13 pm
a typical propaganda narrative on state tv. russia says it's fighting what it claims are ukraine and nazis on its own soil. the news report claims money is, is what's driving people to sign a contract with the defense ministry. even though it does mention a one time payment of $2000000.00 roubles almost 200000. average russians would have to work at least 2 years to earn that kind of money in poorer regions even longer. so there is a part of the population coming from the blue wrist regions and it was the beneficiaries of the war. we can not signal that money is important for these people. the a large amounts of money, which i suppose, which i promoted today by the russian officials in exchange of the human life is something which is conceded in both sides of the deal as the kind of acceptable
12:14 pm
deal. ukraine says it has captured hundreds of russian soldiers since the start of its incursion. 80 percent of them are believed to be conscript. after ukraine's 1st advances on russian territory, mothers of drafted soldiers called on president poor to to remove them out of the course region. now this chechen special forces commander has harsh words for those parents i use need versus if you're 18 year old children are already serving. and do you think they shouldn't defend their homeland when it's being attacked by the enemy or to have one question for you? what use you and your children to this country? russia says around 6000 soldiers have been killed, and ukraine, experts believe the number to be much higher with some estimates, putting them at around 300000. the russian defense industries now running as like these. reading real man belongs here to recruit more soldiers. the
12:15 pm
major strategy of the russian government for today is the pointing the mos mobilization must mailed to him about his ation in the whole russian population and trying to uh, categorize to a target mobile and rebuttal, a tourist and not the productive category. so the population, you know, the to filling the gaps in the, um, on the rims at, at least according to russian state to be there still enough volunteers left advice . it's well for more now let's cross over to dw is young. you know, some, you'll know that she's monitoring developments and russia from our rigor bureau, in the fighting and ukraine is now spilled back into russia, which started the war. how is that affecting morale in russia, particularly among potential recruits?
12:16 pm
or you know, there is this propaganda narrative surrounding this for russia. claims it is actually fighting ukrainian, nazis and his referendum, seeing what we're to there for that. we have to know this war is surrounded by a great mis, a in russian society. it's called the great a patry arctic war, and it is used to justify the war against ukraine and now with the incursion. we kind of see this narrative continue, because russia can also see the enemy is on our territory. and we have a 2 sites as an enemy. so patriots nationalists might actually have been reassured by ukraine's incursion. reassured a, to, to fight this enemy as, as russia claims it a. but of course, the question is more at how many really sign up because of this patriotic motivation of social is just actually say it as a minor factor for people to serve the army. and that money is actually the more important one. but of course, still this narrative, kansas,
12:17 pm
and it's also being spread by a lot of pro war bloggers in russia right now. who to ask you about russian media. how was ukraine's course incursion playing out there? how is it being seen by average russians? well, there's difference, definitely a difference between russian state media and the population of russian stating that tries to put a kind of positive spin on the events repeatedly exclaiming if occasions are going well uh, claiming the russian army, its successfully hitting the ukrainian army, ukrainian military equipment that's what we see on state to be, i think for the russian public. one thing is certain it is that of course, for the 1st time a broader part of the russian population is pretty feeling this for firsthand, at least on the largest scale. we see a lot of people who have been evacuated from the regions. we see them arrive in other regions of pressure to so just placed
12:18 pm
a people there on social media. we hear some complaints about. education is not working as they should. and then of course, there is this issue at the very sensitive issue i would say for the kremlin of conscripts because there is some kind of pressure in society there. so it is sensitive for the kremlin. we seen this a direct appeal to vitamin approaching from parents of conscripts. but of course in general, we have to remember that it is really hard to assess russian public opinion because we have such repressive laws regarding freedom of expression in the country. now russia has so far not succeeded in pushing back ukraine's incursion. what do we know about present in proteins plans to deal with this? to yes, a rush. i was really surprised. it seems of by ukraine's incursion. and so we
12:19 pm
here, now, it seems that russia is really trying to pull troops a to react a, to your credit incursion. about 4 of which my pushing himself, i would say, he really doesn't seem to effective by ukraine's incursion. he just came back from a 2 day state visit to other by john. he has a towards the caucasus now and all that why we see the largest attack by your firm and ok for an army on russian sort since one or 2. so from the political leadership in merced said, really seems to continue this message that there's a business as usual going on. and it's kind of things that's pushing is waiting out this incursion by ukraine. janina. thank you very much. that was the w. c. i need to samuel nova in riga now to bangladesh, which has been going through political upheaval in the weeks since crime and
