worship, or dominance by more powerful states. we're a global comedies. the see, the air, the space and space remain open and accessible for the benefit of all. to tackle the century's most pressing challenges, we have to do it together. we have to end covered 1900, not just at home, which we're doing, but everywhere. there's no wall high enough to keep us safe from this pandemic. for the next biological threat we face and there will be others, requires coordinated multilateral action. we must all commit to an ambitious climate action if we're going to prevent the worst impacts of climate change, limiting global warning. warming to no more than 1.5 degrees celsius. me to grow the global transition to clean energy technology. you know, went on over in the tank and that kind of guy. when i 1st was elected vice president with president obama,

military satisfaction to let us know what the greatest threats facing american were the greatest physical threats. this is not a joke. you know what the joint chiefs told us the greatest threat facing america was global warming because they'll be significant population which fights overland. millions of people leaving places because they're literally sinking below the sea and in asia because of a fight over one is ariel land anymore. with the g 7, we plan to launch and ambitious ever to support resilience and development around the world by investing in high quality, high standard, physical, digital, and health infrastructure. we have to make sure the new technology is enormous of conduct in cyberspace are established. including addressing the growing threat of ransomware attacks, governed by a democratic values not by the autocrat,

or let it happen. these are all critical national security issues in 2021. we're going to be driving this agenda together with our g 7 partners in brussels. i'll make it clear to the united states commitment to our nato alliance. and article 5 is rock solid, just sacred obligation. we had an article 5, the us and u. k. are both found the members of native, the strongest military and political lines in the history of the world. national hyperbole, our troops is to shoulder, to shoulder around the world. including serving bravely nonsense can stand for the past 20 years. or nato allies have had our backs when it mattered, just like we've had, there's mismatch. and now we need to modernize our lines investing in our critical infrastructure, our cyber capabilities, to keep us secure against every threat we faced over the last decade. and the new

challenges about the face as well, with your opinion leaders. i'll discuss how the united states can work with europe to address a full range of measures that require the full strength or trans line partnership, including working together to shape the new role. so the 21st century economies and only after these meetings will our closest democratic partners to develop a common agenda and renewed purpose. i'll travel to geneva to sit down with the man i've spent time with before president vladimir putin. we're not seeking conflict with ross, russia want to stable, predictable, predictable relationship or 2 nations sharing credit responsibilities, and among them ensuring strategic stability and pulling arms control agreement. i take that responsibility seriously and, but i've been clear that the united states will respond in

a robust and meaningful way when the russian government engages and harmful activities. we've already demonstrated that i'm going to communicate that there are consequences relying, violating the sovereignty of democracies in the united states in europe and elsewhere. i'm going to be clear that the trans atlantic alliance will remain vital, vital source of strength for the u. k. europe and the united states can make sure there's no doubt as whether the united states will rise in defense of our most deeply health values and our fundamental interest. here's why this all matters so much right now. i believe we're in an inflection point and world history the moment where it falls us to prove that democracies will not just endure, but they will excel as we rise to see enormous opportunities of new

age. we have to discredit those who believe that the age of democracy is over as some of our fellow nations believe rep to expose this fall, the narrative that decrees of dictators can match the speed and scale the 21st challenges you know, and i know they're wrong but it doesn't mean we don't have to work hard, never to prove that democracy can still deliver for our people. the menu think things are changing so rapidly. democracies cannot get together and form a consensus to respond like autocrats can't you know better and anyway that democracy doesn't happen by action. we have to defend it. we have to strengthen it . renewal. ready and i know that the american people up to this job, i know because i look around this haggard. what i see is i see america. i see

america, people have different backgrounds coming together and a shared mission. our democracy has never been personal. never been perfect. americans of all races, religious sexual orientation, immigrants, native americans, all have spilled their blood to defend the values that we talk about. generation after generation american heroes sign up to be part of the fight. because they understand the truth. that lives in every american heart. that liberation opportunity. justice is far more likely to come to pass in a democracy than an emerge. you know, talk proceeds in the world. i promise you that's what this is going to be all about your generation and your children. and here's what else i know beyond a doubt. there is not a single thing,

nothing. nothing beyond america's competence to accomplish. when we do it together, we do it is one people. your proof that your prove that every single day your brave, your decency, your honor, commitment to duty. you can send more fuel through a boom. on occasion 135 or an 8 minutes. the civilian gas pumpkin pump in 24 hours. you do in mid air, it's all a normal day for this team. so tell me where we can win our race, the future across the board. for the country to crack, the physicals and the physics of human flight. then crashed through the sound bar. then put a man in the moon and flew helicopter on mars, on and on. there's nothing, nothing,

nothing beyond our capacity. so i want to thank you again. welcome. in, jo, me today. it's great to be here in the game and is greater being here, seeing you 1st seen all of you is the best possible way to start this trip. let me and begin by saying thank you. mean from the bottom my heart, i give you my word. thank you all for what you do. thank you all for your understanding that we're a nation based on values. thank you all for protecting may god bless you all and may god protect our church. thank you. got the news

that us president joe biden speaking in the mills and whole air base in suffolk, here in the u. k. as the officially begins is 1st overseas trip as us president. he started that talk by highlighting his links to the military. of course, his son bo biden was an army major outlined that one of the things that he is going to do while he is on this trip, which will include the g 7 meeting the native from it. and also meeting with christian was to let putin and push him know what i want him to know that the usa is back, that the proceeds will stand together. the us will lead from a position of strength. he also mentioned that he felt this was an inflection point in history, where democracies must not just survive but thrive and of the u. s. has to defense,

strengthen and renew the concept of democracy. well, let's go to our diplomatic editor james base, who joins us now from truro, in cornwall in western england. were of course some that g 7 summit is due to take place. i guess similar sentiments that he had already mentioned on board of air force one outside washington. before leaving the us saying that he was going to make it clear to put in in china that europe and the united states are tight and things that we've heard really from president biden since he took off is 5 months ago. many of the lines in that speech were things that we'd heard before delivered, of course, as part of a, a message to american servicemen setting here in the u. k. also a message i think, to the u. k. referring to the special relationship between these 2 countries. many,

many, many, many of the things that he said in that speech, he said before deliberate in his normal folksy manner though, and very wide ranging comments. even getting quotes from w b h, the irish poet in there. but the message that i think is the central message is the, the message to the, to bloody me, putin. because that in many ways is what this is all building up to. there are 2 things on this trip to europe that he wants to achieve. number one is to get all his allies on the same page to try and give that message. you heard him say that the u. s. is back to reassure allies, many of whom they may not. the leaders may not say it in public, but in private. they made it very clear they were very unnerved by the years of president trump. they didn't know what was going to happen next. they didn't know whether the u. s. had that back. well, president, by making it quite clear that the u. s. is back and it does have its allies back

from now on. so that's the, that's the 1st stage of this trip with the g 7 allies and partners of the leading economies of the world are going to be joined by other significant countries that are also joining the g 7. so you have a straight earlier, you will have south africa, south korea, and joining remotely, india those countries are interesting because i think you'll see certainly from some of the attendees that countries that have particular interest and concern about china. then president biden getting on to meet with nato countries and then going on to meet with the countries of the you is going to see many of the u. s. is key allies and partners and getting united view from all of them on what they think of china and also russia and that particular problem. russia. he said he doesn't seek confrontation with russia, but he is going to speak very firmly and defend democracy and the future of democracy when he meets vladimir putin. and that clearly is the 2nd. some might say

the most important part of his visit, his 1st foreign visit as the us president. obviously the focus will be then on international politics and rebuilding, if you will, the western alliance that had been damaged after 4 years of the trump administration. but interestingly, present invite and also talked about the environment in that speech that we've just heard and that expect it to be one of the key topics. isn't it james? of the g 7 from it. yes and explaining it's in terms i think that his audience us servicemen could understand. remember they've been listening to president trump for for years, who really at every stage underplayed the issue of climate change. it was not a priority to him. he pulled out the paris climate deal. you had president biden's saying in military terms, what it could mean for those service men and women. significant population

movements as climate change takes hold. he certainly sees this is a priority signed up to the parents climate deal. as soon as he was inaugurated and this is an important deal, he's already had an all important year. sorry. he's already had a climate summit at the white house. they're hoping to build on that. now at the g 7, get all the g 7 on the same page, then bring in all the other countries of the g 20 to get them on the same page. i'm sure that also be an effort that the un general assembly in september to try and get the whole world mobilize and it all comes to a combination at the end of the, again, here in the u. k, is the host for a big summit. the cops summit at the end of the year where they're trying to get new commitments on climate change. that's what everything is building up to james base with the latest from truro and cornwall. and james, of course, he will be following the g 7 summit for us, but for the moment,

thank you. now in other news, the united nations is warning of a massive loss of life in me and mar, under military rule that you and envoy says urgent action is needed. now in kaya state, where a 100000 people have fled the violence, many of fled to the forests and are preparing to protect themselves against attacks . laura burden, manly reports a pony low hopes. the small underground bunker will shelter her from the expected air strikes. when the military moved in with bones and artillery far in march, hospital schools and public buildings were attacked more than 100000 people from me and must k instate sled, their homes, many escaping to nearby forests. now they're working to protect themselves against what they expect to be more bloodshed. i go down below that

without burn or like soldiers are going over the line using too much secret people live comfortably and safely. but right now, we have to leave our homes and hide from the world. these people from keynes internally displaced kemp it to tar, tried to fight away along the banks of the solving river to safety and thailand. neighboring kaya is one of several regions where armed groups of fighting back against february's clue what elected leader on foot, sushi was deposed. we believe that there blockading this area. this is again something they do on a regular basis. they will deny humanitarian assistance to any area where they believe there is resistance to their rule. so, you know, food is dark, getting through the potable water medicine, other things that people need. the un envoy says mass deaths could occur from

starvation, disease, and exposure. the hunter is blocking roach that could provide aid organizations and those who are trying to get to them access to these people. and i've also heard a report, a credible report to just to day that landmines are being laid on the road leading to the forests, where these desperate people are with the wet season about to begin malaria and dang. a fever could also spread quickly 30 to the one in the law, l middle. some of the women are pregnant and were closer labor which make it hard for them to travel. some have newborn baby that need a lot of supplies that you to poor has been in a tooth to camp for 15 years and knows what it's like the face hunger and the constant threat spun the military to new or new order where he does or every day i

had to follow the news and what the soldiers were doing and how they were going to come in. so we'd know all the moves for now. people have no choice but the barricade themselves into what a very flimsy shelters, and hope they'll be enough to keep them safe from the next air strike. lore by manly alpha 0. a russia court has outlawed political organizations linked to jail, the position leader election valley labeling them as extremist. it means nevada. these allies are banned from running in rushes, parliamentary elections later this year. the criminal critic is currently serving 2 and a half year prison sentence for parole violations related to an embezzlement. conviction . bernard smith is following events for us in moscow. so, bernard, what does banding of all these group actually mean? barbara? this was a mammoth all day long, the court session,

13 hours almost in the end, an indication that the authorities were determined to have the court deliver. it's ruling in one hearing in one day in the hearing. and it means effectively the really the final blow for lexi navarro and the organization of political organization. he spent years building up to try and counter vladimir putin. it now means that anyone with a leadership role in this organization can face up to 10 years in prison. anyone who found this organization could face up to 8 years in prison in nevada, and these organizations in the same category here in russia as al qaeda, as far i fall rights groups. and even the jehovah witnesses, while the russian government for the may putin's government, as essentially doing, has been using the courts and parliament to block off every avenue that the house beat in russia to legitimate opposition to the ruling government. vladimir putin

has elections his party. there are parliamentary elections, robert give out here in no, in september, vladimir putin himself remains popular. but as united russia party is not so popular and there were concerns that it would lose seats, this is another attempt to head off any threat to them. and to just cut off vocal opposition. and in vernon, presumably this was expected, wasn't it? yes, it was expected. na, valley's organisation effectively started as already wound itself down when this for this case 1st appeared in the court. in april, they knew this was coming. they say his lawyers say they will appeal and they're supposed to be a 10 day period in which they can appeal. although the some debate, this lay tower as to whether or not that would possible, the court says its ruling has to be enforced immediately. notwithstanding,

whether there's any appeal or not, it also means essentially that really, anyone who's now been in opposition to writing may have, who's in any leaders of opposition groups are either in jail in exile or pending challenges. navarro himself is serving a 2 and a half year jail sentence, other opposition people have taken themselves indirect exile because they feel threatened. they've been warned that they might be arrested if they remain in russia and others are facing charges. so every turn, people who previously have been able to speak out in russia against vladimir putin on the ruling party have been silenced. and this comes just a few days ahead of jo biden's meeting. we've just been hearing about that with vladimir putin, where present body is expected to raise human rights issues, particularly those of nevada and other opposition groups. nevertheless,

clearly authorities have been, have not, are not concerned about that. they wanted to show and push this case through. in one day there were no breaks, it was a half an hour break, that was all today. and then he all defends motions to try and push to get this case thrown out quickly rejected. and the court exceeded the prosecution. this demands to ban election of volunteers empty corruption organization bernard smith. with the latest on that story from moscow, bernard, thank you for more than a year, have he escaped the devastating impact of coven 19 reporting? few cases and deaths. but now it's grappling with its 1st serious outbreak. it's here to administer a single vaccine shalt and health officials say the upward trend infections could prove catastrophic, traceable reports. nearest gaping gang violence importer prince. over 500 people are seeking refuge in this port stadium. under the protection of
