12:02 pm
new weapon packages for supporting our army on the battlefield. and that is one the 2nd i think the invitation to me too. and a we want to be on the same page with everybody, with all their understanding and for today what we, what we, what we hear and understand that we will have this invitation when security measures will allow us based on the plastic editor james base his life for us in the lithuanian capital, james at interesting uh, sound bite, the for the presidency lensky this morning, before we headed into those meetings, a little more measured off to some of the remarks he made yesterday. oh yeah, she said that nato is communique on the time frame for you trying to get an invitational membership to nighttime, and that really is no timeframe being offered. he said that was absurd in his
12:03 pm
tweets yesterday. he seems to be more by should today, but perhaps he's still raising some of his frustrations in his private meetings. he's be meeting with jim jones, the older shots he treated about that. and he was having that meeting, another tweet, which was more positive about the british department, especially soon as he said, and of that meeting that will be good news because of the case seen by ukraine is one of his strongest supporters. later in the day, i hope you're having a meeting with president biden. he's also meeting the nature of sector general yet installed to bug. we think it just have a hoffman as time. that's what is down on the, on the plan. he'll be speaking to reporters, ahead of a full meeting of, of the nato north atlantic council that sold a $31.00 members of ne type plus sweden, which of course now looks like it's set to join. nice have very soon. and ukraine,
12:04 pm
and that body will be known as the nato ukraine council, which is a new body which you created now has a palace coal, whenever it wants these measures, along with the g 7 countries, announcing more support and security guarantees from nato as well. i meant to keep presence lensky, happy to show a degree of unity and w. right. and i spoke to the slipping in front of minnes, minnesota, tanya fi on sheets living near one of the countries that is one of the strongest supporters of ukraine. this is what she tells me. that is quite a strong unity among the alliances, sit on unity of a supports to ukraine, as long as it states that is clear sylvania is suffering, who many daddy and materia, also a military aids to ukraine. we are serving and having to refugees, but when it comes to the invitation to ukraine, to become a member of nato,
12:05 pm
the invitation is there and we always um, support the open door policy. but once the order is over, so this is um, i think pretty much cleared and the message is from the alliances united get the communicate said when i low as agree and conditions permit that raises the question was to the conditions the conditions. so of course, that there are no fighting said the that is peace because you know very well how not to open a so you have ours because 5, if there is a one country to, to use in war. that means that you have a collective defense. and to the whole, we need to can be invoiced. so it is pretty much clearing the discussion. the country in war cannot become a member of nato. but once again, if you could a news welcome to join, the invitation is open for every country and it's
12:06 pm
a solving decision as we are defending so many different studies, audio integrity of ukraine. lots of talk of multi yeah, help for ukraine from nato. the g 7, the saying is go to security assistance package as well. but isn't that potentially a problem long ahead and it's got nothing to do is nato itself. it's got to do with the us electro calendar in november next year. that's a us selection on you don't know who's going to be the president and it could be donald trump. again, it could be someone from the republican party who was not as keen on supporting ukraine. isn't that realistically a big problem lying ahead? i think we have to be so cause store support ukraine. we have to be folk or still cor, for just in the last think be seen ukraine and make conditions every international effort that goes into the action that that are conditions. that's a try to bring to piece and ukraine. it's in everyone's interest,
12:07 pm
insert the need. so you need the rest of your convenience. so no matter what elections it's, you know, we cannot speak and speculate about who's going to be next president of us. we have to be focus how to support ukraine and how to stop the work as well. that was tanya file and she is the a foreign minister of slovenia, talking to me a little earlier all the night. her leaders are here in this building, including president biden, and i am joined now by president, spite in his representative for tonight to augusta judy on smith. let's talk about you claim to begin with. present savanski didn't really hide the fact. he didn't really like the language that you negotiate, did not communicate. he said it was absurd. he said that should be a timeframe for membership. you come up with the communicate that says it's completions based. what are those conditions? well, we did a couple of things. there's actually quite a bit of language on ukraine and they communicate, and we said that ukraine's future is in nato. we did more than restate what we said
12:08 pm
in 2008 in bucharest. most importantly, we took away one of the steps on the road to membership and that is the membership action plan. we lifted that and got rid of it. we did talk about the reforms. ringback ukraine has already implemented, but we do note that there are additional democratic and security sector reforms that we'd like to see ukraine undertake as it moves down the path to membership. so today will be announcing a package of deliverables for ukraine. they're going to get more practical support over the long term. we're going to elevate nato's political relationship with ukraine by launching a nato ukraine council and presidents, the less keys at the summit and with us. so you're going to see him shortly. he'll be speaking about nato and his country's relationship with nato. i think there's still a lot more to come. there's going to be announcement later today by the g 7 about individual countries making long term security commitments to ukraine. so there's
12:09 pm
a lot to talk about here. you said the ukraine has some things it's got to do. do you have a list all you're going to present him with a list? is that something he can take off? well look, any member that comes into the alliance, there are certain things we want to see have happen. we obviously want civilian can solar, the military ukraine can check that box their eyes. you're broad state of your democracy. do you have full respect for the rule of law? are you tackling anti corruption? are you undertaking anti corruption measures? there are things that we've spoken with the ukrainians about since 2008. again, they've made remarkable progress. we know they will continue to make progress, and we are all confident that they will become a member of this alliance. you're talking about long term guarantees coming from nato and from the g 7. but your own country, can you really give long term gum guarantees or a democratic country with the elections in november next? yeah,
12:10 pm
that's 15 months. i'm president biden. might not be the next president. it might even be donald trump. will someone like donald trump, who doesn't share the same views on your train? should you claim be worried about the us selection? ukraine should not be worried about us support. we see deep bi partisan support in congress. we see it in the pulling data that's out there. the american people fundamentally understand what's at stake here. they know that ukraine is 1st and foremost, defending its territory against unprovoked aggression. but would they also know that ukraine is defending the values that we hold dear? this is about more than ukraine. this is about our democracies, our core values said, and for that reason, i think no one should question american support going forward in the coming hours press, the button will be leaving here and going to helsinki for somebody to go the nordic nations. and you now have spend as a member of nato, the 31st member,
12:11 pm
and you have sweden looking like he's going to be a member of nato. took here, it seems as dropped his objections, but it's not yet been rectified in the turkish parliament. i will put the point to the last few of the writ, madrid, it seems pretty close. all you certain there was a deal with took you. well, we had very good news. monday night. we've been waiting for news coming out of 2 members of the other 29. we're able to ratify very, very quickly. the membership of, of, for sweden to become the 32nd member. now we have a situation where tricky a has come forward monday night. they just announce they are ready to submit the necessary documents to kind of the, the ratification documents to their parliament. we hope that will happen as soon as possible. we have word from president air to one himself that this is his intent. he feels that sweden has heard turkey a on their concerns as it relates to counter terrorism, and they have responded to those concern. i'll get the f sixteens to. well,
12:12 pm
that is a separate matter. i mean, president biden has supported turkeys, long term modernization, and we've been working with the congress and we will try and ensure that turkey can pursue those f sixteens as they so desire. tough to munitions just days before you said that you were going to send them to ukraine, present bite and said it was a very difficult decision. and allies here are not really saying very much about it, but privately they'll tell you it's quite a lot for them. to said sign that convention against cluster munitions, they don't like it, but i'm not asking about the allies. i'm asking you about the public in nato nations. you being trying to present a really clear moral case that the russians are, the ones could be single crimes, crimes against humanity. doesn't this really complicate your case? well, look, this was a very difficult decision as the president has said, a couple of times now. but this is in essence a bridging solution. all of us, many nations around the globe have moved heaven and earth to try and ensure that
12:13 pm
the ukrainians have the munitions they need to retake their territory and defend against russian aggression. but we have had issues in ensuring that production can keep up with their expenditure rates. and for that re and as we continue to find additional 155, we are going to rely on these cluster munitions as a bridging solution until we can have an uptick and production and ensure that they have what they need to prevail on the battlefield for this counter offensive about so the thank you very much about the julia and smith, the us ambassador to nato, joining us as her boss and all the other nato leaders continue that meetings here, but to taking place in vilnius coming up in the next few minutes, we have a presidency, lensky and secretary dental stilton bug. he'll be speaking to reporters and said, we will be taking that live hit on out of there. thank you for that depth depth and want to get us a james base that in the lithuanian capital. let's move on for now. north korea's

12:16 pm

the monsoons driving those channels over towards the philippines. as we go through thursday and there's a little bit of depression, which is just for me with larry of, of low pressure that's going to say some very wet weather in across a good part of the philippines. as we go through the next few days, penny a shot was to recall southern parts of indo. china can body a thing, some heavy right southern areas of vietnam, scattering the showers and into malaysia and the nation is generally tried. it shouldn't, we try to request much of australia last you set bad. now we still have a bit of a breeze still blowing through the bite cell. it'll blustery once again and see what has made it. but for me not to go straight. there it is. fine, and try with high pressure in charge. i will be essentially settled and some of you might catch a shot or 2 just running across the fall south of wy. nothing to must just be called babel fish. last, as we go on through the next couple of days, we'll say some way whether to start to push back to was, has made. it was some plus 3 shots for time on friday. eventually that will push
12:24 pm
towards these islands. but at least here, it's pulling up the african narratives from african perspectives. nature has always been there some way . my child to short documentary spine african film make is looking at the archives that we have sometimes quite heartbreaking to look for what is key a is that is part of our history that couple from nigeria and re writing libraries from canyon new series of africa, direct on algebra, the the
12:25 pm
hello you're watching out, is there a line to a thought told the story. is this our final day of this is nato summit on the way? indeed, lithuanian capital vilnius, ukrainian president has been for straight to the house. the alarm stopped short of offering keys, a timeline for its membership process. turnarounds foreign minister has met me on most else and lead out in some sushi. it happened last week and she is reported to be in good house as the on foreign ministers on gathering in indonesia to discuss the crisis around president abraham racy as arrived in kenya. it's the fest visits fine rainy and needed some africa in, in a decade. pricey and the kenyan presidents and even retail, all set to discuss trade are now posted in precedence. my mood a boss is visiting jeanine for the 1st time in more than 10 years. i believe we can
12:26 pm
see life pictures of a helicopter with my fluid, abbas the head of feet. pilots published in authority? let's. yep, there we go. that is a helicopter with the head of the palestinian authority mahmoud abbas due to visit jeanine. it comes days off to a major is rarely assault on the cities refugee camp in the occupied west bank. since the stones of the c, a 64 palestinians have been killed in janine 12. in this latest strike. let's join island fisher while we watch these live pictures. we are expecting that the palestinian authority meet at my mood, abbas to come out of that helicopter. he's visiting jeanine some way he's not visited for over a decade. allen, if you can hear me. so this is quite a significant visit, isn't it? because he has, he has some, he hasn't actually come to this a part of the country for a very long time over
12:27 pm
a decade. and you'll have to remember is it just a week ago when there was a helicopter above janine and the people here? what kind of fi? because they were wondering what was about to to come when the helicopter flew over is just a couple of minutes ago. you're seeing a landing now here janine, there were tears from the people on the ground, so that is perhaps a good sign for my food, a boss, but he may get a warm reception. he's already decided he's truncating this visit. what is interesting is the level of security. here it is incredibly tight. there are hundreds and hundreds of palestinian policemen on duty all across the camp. and they would need it because a couple of hours ago were told that there was, there's really military convoy that was heading straight for janine several vehicles in strand heading towards the camp and the city. but they were blocked by the palestinians. they put their vehicles in the way and essentially told them to turn back know the power studies that we're speaking to. you see that as a direct pro vacation because there's no way these really didn't know the man who
12:28 pm
the boss was coming to jeanine today. that he was going to be in the cab because when the helicopters fly, it's normally flown by the go daddy in a big coordinate with the is really the, let them know what paso taking. so the israelis were well aware. so this is seen as a real snap by uh, the ability to keep talking about wanting to build up the palestinian authority. it's going to be a task for my food, a bass, cuz he's shocking to visit here. he's not doing as many things as he said he was going to do. he's not spending as long on the ground. he will go to the new cemetery that has been built here. i think we'll visit 11 of the graves of the 12 people that were killed during the 48 hour is really useful to you just last week. remember, so we could go today. we finally came into to the not to that 40 out of so you will then come to one of the squares that he will make a very short address. he will meet a few of the take the tree, see it, including the governor, and that he will head back to ramallah. he was due to spend time in lavender hole,
12:29 pm
one of the main holes here in jeanine, i think is going to speak to the families of those who died and those who were injured and some of those who have lost their homes more than 40 people selected their homes destroyed and that is really offensive. he's not going to do that now. and so there was some consent may not get a warm reaction here because people were feeling last week that the palestinian authority head essentially abandoned them, had left them alone. and a few people said to is just 24 hours ago a month with a boss to spend more time informed capitalism that he has in the cities of palestine such as novelist. and here in janine, so there were a few tears, the helicopter went over. it'll be interesting to see what sort of reaction the guys during the rest of what will be a brief visit that had been plan. i just want to remind you is what we are seeing on these life pictures. this is the palestinian authority need of food, a boss who is visiting jeanine in the, in the west bank. he and the last time he visited a,
12:30 pm
this part of the country was about 10 years ago. so a long time since he's visited this area, it's interesting allen that you were talking earlier and even now how people feel engineering feel abandoned by the palestinian authority. and especially since he's now cut short this trip. what is your sense from the people that are around you? are they going to welcome this visit? i think the police that he's finally here, but of course the question is, why is it taking them 10 years to, to come here? this? so what happened last week was the 1st, there's really in touch in the 1st there's really a sold on getting there have been others and there are certainly one earlier this year. so the wonder where he's be not, there may be a good reason for him cutting short his visit. we know that his wife was taken into hospital late on tuesday. so obviously be concerned. he himself is 87 and has a.
