thousands of guilt may never return back to school. many have already been married though. climate coded and conflict, all 3 continue to weigh on the you ends workload with poor countries suffering the most. but in the words of the secretary general geopolitical divides are putting us all at rest. oh dad and i'm singing sensation. angelica joe ended the event on an upbeat note come to say it will be the most powerful countries in the world in the crosshairs. kristin salumi al jazeera, the united nation. what that's called life to the un, or diplomatic as a james base, is that james, tell us more about what we can expect from this mission. well 1st thing to say is it's an in person meeting of the un general assembly. many of the speeches and the last couple of years were delivered by video. and that was because of covert but world leaders are all gathering here in new york. the plan

for the day a little bit fluid. it has been in recent days. exactly what was gonna happen on this 1st day. and that's because many of these leaders are actually making their way from london where they've been at the funeral for queen elizabeth and normally on the 1st day of the high level week of the un general assembly. one of the very 1st speeches is from the u. s president joe biden, while his speech has been put back to wednesday because he was in london and is resting, i think before coming here to new york. but the 1st speech of the lot that we're going to be watching is of course, the speech that comes every year from the un secretary general, antonio terrace. i'm joined by his spokesperson steph vantage? eric steven, you've read the speech. we haven't the world's in a pretty bad place, is he going to be pretty grim about things? i think this will not be a sugar coated speech. he will speak very directly to the global divisions that we see in the world today that are hampering not only our search for peace around the

world, but also how we deal with climate change. how we deal with hoggard, how we deal with a lot of the other crises we've facing. but it will also be a solution facing speech and he will offer a number of solutions on how to deal with these issues. i remember speech a year ago and it was, it was pretty grim about the state of the world. and since then, we have a war that's taking place in europe involving a permanent member of the security council. what is the sex jones perspective now on where we are in ukraine? is there a chance for peace? i think the secretary joel was very direct and he didn't see an immediate, a light at the end of the tunnel, an immediate opportunity or to engage in an indirect p stocks. however, there are are that there are opportunities to mitigate the suffering that we're seeing in ukraine. and the u. n. is very present with our humanitarian assistance in ukraine, but also to mitigate the global impact of the war in terms of the,

especially in the food crisis. and as you know, he has been spearheading the black sea grain initiative, which has seen a ukrainian grains returned to the market. no. so facilitating the trade in russian grain and fertilizer. so just to be clear, you're going to have the ukranian foreign minister here, the russian foreign minister. you see 0 chance of any movement and any movement towards piece. i think i'd be silly to say 0 chance obviously what bilaterals those 2 ministers will have or other ministers will have is, is, is, are known, or least are known to, to us. but just generally, we don't see an immediate opportunity for direct peace right now. i'd like to get the you any comments on events in iran, as you are well aware, a 22 year old woman was beaten and then died in a coma. and there are big, big protests that have been taking place in iran. what is the 2nd generals reaction to the death and the protests, what we've seen,

the un high commissioner for human rights expressed her concern her call for an independent investigation into the death of the, of this young woman. we fully back a that call and it is also important that people be allowed to protest a peacefully free of the fear of repression. and is one of the things that 2nd general i assume will me, will mention when he meets the iranian friends. they will have a very wide ranging discussion, i'm sure on this and other issues, including most likely the j spewing that onto zurich the spokesperson for the u. s . equity general. thank you very much for joining us here on alger 0. a couple of hours time will have that speech live, the sex general speech live here on out 0. and then after that, as we always do, join us diplomatic january, every year, we'll hear all the world leaders, one by one, setting out there still giving their, put their position on events around the world. are diplomatic editor james base live at the u. n. in new york, james, many thanks. a major storm is ripping through the caribbean or

east from those 2 cities, which means they are now into the don't ask region of ukraine. they are now and a counter offensive. and based on what we're hearing from reports from the front lines, ukrainians are now on a counter offensive around a city called layman city of about 25000 people at town if you will. but it's critical and strategic because it is in don't ask what is considered potentially an area that the russians have wanted to gain full control over. and it's also a town with the major rail line that runs through the transit hub if the ukrainians can recapture lima. which appears like they are trying to do at this very hour, that would be another victory for the ukrainians. and again, put the russians on defense in don't ask. they only control about half of don't ask
