i understand that we have very important topic and we'll discuss them ever seen so many challenges in ukraine in europe, in the world and from energy today on battlefield type. but i feel for all i really all my appreciation from my heart for the article you great is cody craven from all on nation strong nation. all the procedures do you feel so, mr. president, for your big support and a leadership across europe. many conference helped us at all healthy now because the wars don't dollar disappeared about it anyway, but that is your leadership. thank you. first of all. thank you so much use of course. thanks bob. support. thanks, congress. and thanks for mom, just ordinary people to your ordinary

people americans, i really appreciate i think is to her a difficult to, to understand what does it mean when we say appreciate but but you really have had to fill it out. thank you so much. great on here and yesterday i was on the bus in bottle and that is the place all east, all country, you know it all the details. we have so many holes and spoke detail about it. and i want to give you something one guy who's really, really hero real, kept him and he asked me to pass his award. and he asked me to best give the work written by them. a lot of sam. a suggestion fault hymer. spencer? yes, he's very brave. and he said,

coal committed with phil. i will make sure that it will get thanks so much. i appreciate it a great site, depression, a, [000:00:00;00] with the way a chat with president biden and presidents lensky presidents, ki,

thanking president biden to congress and the people in america for their support. and he will say thank to president by 40 called his leadership. and just as he saw him handing president biden, a military honor that had been awarded to a fighter in back moot who is a real captain of a high mas battery. this is one of the systems that the u. s. as provided a to ukraine, and this was handed over to president biden by the ukranian president. go to ms. lensky and fishes ly 1st at the white house. so a lot of symbolism then, and a lot of gratitude, clearly from president sky. well, one of the things that he wanted to do while he was here, we were told, was to thank the american people because they have been, by far, the biggest backers of the ukrainian efforts against russia, both financially at with humanitarian aid as well. and also with messages of support and that's the message he will take to capitol hill in the next couple of

hours as well. but he has a shopping list. he's about to go into a meeting with joe biden's national security team. and he has pushed to for a great deal, including pushing for the high mars that you talked about at several months ago. and then pushing for the patriot missile system. and it looks as if he is going to get that they've announced that they will be giving at some of those missiles systems to the ukrainians and providing training for the ukrainians as well. but he wants more, the concern that the united states has, and it will be reiterated again to president zalinski. and his team is that the u. s. doesn't really want to change its policy of non engagement in ukraine beyond providing defensive weapons at to the ukranian. so the idea that there may be attack drones that could be provided will be ruled out, which will no doubt disappoint at presidents lensky. and he will make a,

his argument in very forceful terms. but it's unlikely that there will be a change, or when he goes to the hell he will ask for their financial support. and there is a bill there, as that is the waiting to be passed, which will provide somewhere in the region of $40000000000.00 in 2023 at for the ukrainians. what people here are hoping is that it won't go for the fuel duration of 2023, but the, the most optimistic of forecasts suggest that the war in ukraine is going to last for several months. yet, there will be discussions to about what has happened over the last few days with the russians, and letting me put in particular going to bellows. there is a consent that they may open up a another front that there could be an attack on keep itself in, in the coming weeks, a winter offensive by the russians. and so,

let me so lensky just wants to make sure that he has full us support for whatever may come in the next couple of months. because as i've said before, he doesn't want to be fighting the russians on the battle front and finding. he has a battle to make sure that the allies stay behind him in what could be a very trying winter in ukraine. and fisher. thank you very much. indeed. i don't know if co is a former, you couldn't m p. now on the base consultant, she joins me again in the studio just to pick up what alan was talking about there the, the suggestion that they might be this other front opening up. but at the same time, other saying there's also the appearance in some ways of deadlock isn't there on the ground. and you claim that there's these kind of holding on to grab a grinding battles in places just to hold them to bit a little bit of ground, which might then prompt some people to start talking about, you know, he's at time to piece talks. is that something that that key is keen to avoid and is that part of what's behind this visit as well? well 1st of all, we can definitely see reinvigoration in dollars and potential engagement of the

country in the war and opening up the 2nd front in the north. again, there are told that there might be attempts to try to retake key if at some point in 2023. again. again, going back to the effort of president and to show some sort of wins in ukraine that he's failed to do thus far. when it comes to deadlock, i think ukraine is seriously determined not to allow that to happen because all that will do is give russia and opportunity to recuperate. re mobilize, get more weapons from their allies, which are very few in the world, but they still have some get new line of mobilization and start offending ukraine again in 2023. so i think the key for ukraine is not to stop and what we've achieved so far and keep fighting them back until we have the capacity to do so. and one of the reasons for presidents and landscape, apart from thinking presence by them for all this, for they've provided for your crane thus far,

is to gain the support. when it comes to peace negotiations, i think it's been made very clear by president biden. the ukraine will not be forced into any concessions that is not willing to take itself and ukraine will decide for, for it. so whether we're willing to compromise and engage in any sorts of talks, i live live co. thank you very much indeed. so i here in the u. k. tens of thousands of ambulance workers, a striking overpaid dispute. the public has been told to take extra care and the armed forces were called in to help with emergencies and follow strong action on tuesday when almost a 100000 nurses walked off the job for the 2nd time this month turned her reports from london. ambulance workers have joined a long list of public sector strike driven to industrial action because of low pay in the face of a crippling cost of living crisis. in this sector,

perhaps more than most low pay as life consequences. it's not just a p. p is one of the reasons why the services such as the, because the government hasn't been based properly in the workforce and people are leaving in the rules. and it's one of these cumulative things. p isn't good. people leave, it means those who are left behind are under even more precious and too often the ultimate prices paid by patients. according to n, h s. england, the number of patients who died while being transferred to hospital in an ambulance more than doubled from 40 in 2021 to 93. in the past 12 months. the number of patients who suffered severe harm in ambulances. triple to a 154 and more than 5000 patients came to some sort of harm on their way to hospital. like their colleagues, the nurse, you know, ambulance worker wants to risk patient care by going on strike. but what they'll tell you here is that the ambulance service has been risking patient care for

a long time. what they want is better pay that leads to better stopping levels that leads to better care. but as with the nurses, the government is refusing to negotiate beyond the payoff of 4 percent well below inflation at almost 11 percent. something warehouse together by the goodwill of actually nation. and i checked, work is across the country, but it's on sustainable is a crisis. without intervention from the government. we've got serious concerns for the future, and i check, i'm health of the nation. and in general, the ambulance workers say they win this fight, even if it means more strikes in the new year. but an improved tale for they say, will only be a small step towards saving the national health service. they're proud to represent jonah how al jazeera london and the cities in afghanistan, i've seen protest against the taliban decision to ban women from universities. you order on tuesday sparked international condemnation. girls have already been banned from middle school and high school and lower counterparts. some on the say,

the latest government move point to a clear divide in the taliban administration. this defiant group of students is taking a stand against the taliban, withdrawing their education. they say their own vision and dreams cannot be taken from them while by omaha come at his care in the 21st century. if there is no education, we will vanish from the face of the you have no one is going to take us seriously. and we won't be able to demand, right? so only with education can we understand our rights and responsibilities? this was the notification of an indefinite ban on womens university education. a gynecologist and kabul says a lack of female doctors could put life in danger. if there is no schools, no university's and no color, just female doctors that number off or,

or maternity mortality to read this and pleasing day by day. despite strong condemnation from several countries and activist groups, the taliban is yet to respond officially. but sources of told out to theora the taliban is divided between reformists, many of whom engage with the international community during talks in doe, hon, and a more conservative faction. one unless says the decisions made by small minority. i think that the vision has been coming on. you would make what she acted these with the dog and don't have got to learn that they are not against women educator. there's only 5 people who are managing the whole idea of the heart 9 isn't gonna be covered. mostly there's vision of the heart more than a year before the taliban took power in afghanistan. it's 1st deputy leader, sergio in a ha, connie wrote an article published in the new york times. it said women's rights to

education would be protected. a promise that has been rolled back. but the u. s. also failed on its promised to use economic tools as leverage to moderate the telephone. in 2021, it proves nearly $10000000000.00 in assets belonging to the african central bank. women say this still suffering please dont but more sanctions than have canister did each sanction you put on we are having to result. i mean when i say we, it's women who are like the are eliminating woman. they are giving us why then each time many women say they were shocked by the announcement i wasn't any shocked. i couldn't believe now. there was some rumors that are going to ban goes from attending universities, but we didn't know that this will happen in the middle of the finance and they want to lead these guys graduate for the moment, sees like this women walking to university hoping to shape their career paths will stop for the foreseeable future. laura con al jazeera,

australia and china have agreed to more high level talks on trade, human rights and security. australia is foreign minister penny wong is in beijing to try to amend relations between the countries as the 1st visit our top australian diplomat in 4 years. relations between beijing and cambra have been strained since china imposed trade barriers, and refused and independent inquiry into the coven. 19 pandemic. i did set out all positions on issues which i know are so important to australians and are important to the government. relevant called it constantly. me at masses tried blockages, human rights, as well as regional security, international security, and the norms and global rules, which on the pin are prosperity. we have agree to maintain high level engagement, and we've agreed to further dialogue in a range of those areas that should kimber has more from hong kong. certainly, leaders from both sides made it very clear that they're absolutely committed to

improving this long standing difficult relationship. china's foreign minister wang, he said, he's prepared from his side to completely reset the ties as though the last few years haven't happened. he's blamed australia unilaterally for making this relationship so difficult to under the previous administration of scott morrison in particular. but when listening to penny wong as feed back in the question and answer session after these meetings, it was clear. there's still a lot of major difficulties for this relationship. and none of them seem to have been immediately addressed. whether it's the trade sanctions that we'd imposed on australian exports to china, whether it's accessible australian, consider officials to detained australian citizens in china. whether it's australia's view, which is a western view in large part of human rights concerns in china with regards to the northwest region. of sin, jang, or to bit none of these things have been immediately addressed as a result of this meeting. and so it's not really clear how many steps could be taken in the short term to find a resolution on these issues. but for the time being from both sides, a commitment,

the more discussion and for more constructive discussion and to move beyond the difficult types of diplomatic disagreement that was really commonplace during the last 3 or 4 years of australia, scott morrison leadership. meanwhile, china and russia have started joint navy exercises. china says the drills are designed to further cooperation with russia. the relationship has deepened since russia invaded ukraine. russia's defense ministry says the drills will include firing missiles in the east china sea flank and have been struggling with food medicine and fuel shortages for months. probably triggered by the countries was financial crisis. in decades. inflation is slightly in november and it's expected to continue declining this year. tens of thousands of people took the anger to the st. blaming the government for corruption and for fading to avert a crisis. you know fernandez takes a look back. oh,

rhonda christa. yes. she lanka, her for many like wasn't them, would delegate, it will continue. the student leader has been detained under tara laws since august, months of shortages of food, medicine, powdered milk, fuel and gas. combined with up to 13 alone power outages brought people to the streets, demanding present, gotta be roger boxer, his brother, the prime minister and his enter administration, stepped down. awfully ballpark doyle, i don't now are. we didn't expect this when we voted for them. for the latest to destroy the country for us and our children. tensions escalated when government loyalist attacked peaceful protested, who had been camped outside the president's office for months. in retaliation, people, torture government vehicles and ministers homes. a member of parliament was beaten to death in the violence that followed. prime minister mind the raja parker was

forced to resign. the president appointed run a vicar missing her as the new premier. that decision did not go down well with protesters who wowed to continue their campaign. these are the scenes. the government is desperate to avoid. the crowds over and the president's house, forcing present raj a boxer to flee 1st from his house. and finally, the country and the sheer number of people trying to get in to see the president vows, is posing a real problem. the pretest 3, any put their attention on the political leadership and what the political leadership could do. and there is now, i think recognition that there has to be political accountability vicar missing as stepped into the void voted in by the pro roger pox. a parliamentary majority to complete the presidential term. and he wasted no time in breaking up demonstrations . this clear out launched at midnight on the day he took his ortho warfare. but the

economic issues haven't gone away. the crisis at the fuel pump and the wider sri lankan economy is far from over. despite the government's attempts to show it has things under control. what's on it, do you say they have stabilized the economy and are confident of bailouts from the international community? this crisis is primarily a governance crisis that has manifested itself as a crisis in the economy. and what's happening now is we are trying to fix that economy without fixing the governance. and i think that is set up to fail. president vicar missing, he says he will use the police and the military to prevent disruptions and challenges to the government's authority. that doesn't face where something with the leaky and other protest leaders who say they will not back down in 2023. with their fernandez, ojo 0. colombo has new hope for
