hello, i'm christian fraser. you're watching the context on bbc news. us secretary of state antony blinken and the british foreign secretary, david lammy, meet president zelensky in ukraine. mr blinken announces a package of more than $700 million for the country. and that's where we are going to start. the foreign secretary, david lammy, and his us counterpart, antony blinken, took a trip together today to ukraine, a meeting with president zelensky with one big decision hanging over the discussions. should ukraine be allowed to use those western long—range missiles, most notably the storm shadow which britain has been supplying, on targets inside russia? the british government seems to be coming round to the idea. sir keir starmer will make the case tojoe biden on friday. there is no official

was asked point—blank left if you wanted ukraine to win, he could not answer the question and did not answer the question and did not answer the question and you heard the secretary of state talking aboutjust then in the clip that we want ukraine to win. something that president trump was not able to say. but a circle back on this point about iran, because there has been a ratcheting up of the relationship between iran and russia, especially with respect of the kinds of intelligence and weaponry that the irradiance are provided, its irradiance are provided, it's become a more urgent issue. and the more urgent as if should becomes, the more prescient it is for the republicans to have a strong response given the incumbent, president trump's alliance with russia. i think he is diluting the ability of the publican party at the moment to beat robust when it comes to iran because of its alliances with president putin. ijust alliances with president putin. i just wonder alliances with president putin. ijust wonder and i'll give alliances with president putin. i just wonder and i'll give the opportunity to respond what just heard but i do wonder

want to take you back in time quickly because america had this idea that it should stay out of european entanglements in the late 19th century, early 20th century. the unit with the result was with met we were pulled into them anyway in world war i. in the 19305, interwar period, same thing, america said we don't want a part of wars and more and less retreat and were isolationist. guess what that meant? world war ii broke up and work as a man and pull the us into it. we saw that again at the end of the cold war as our friend said it was the end of history and we would have infinite peace in the world would be on democracies that we bury our heads in the sand and mr threats and they came back to us was now i fear 23 years later we are back in one of those moments where candidates like donald trump or say we've got to pullback like donald trump or say we've got to pull back from these engagements, america first and let's not think of the rest of the world, it is not lost on me that he's using a phrase from the 19305 and when i worry about is if america retreats, there is more dangerfor us and for the world.

9:51 pm
didn't look the best move early on as travis head smashed 30 off one overfrom sam curran as the aussies looked to build a big total. but england fought back with some quick wickets, jofra archer taking a couple, as australia were bowled out 179 inside their 20 overs. in reply, debutantjordan cox was going well before he fell to this brilliant catch from tim david. after that, wickets continued to fall, with england looking like they will fall short of their target. a few moments ago, they were 127—7 after ia overs. they need 53 from 29 balls. ireland's survived a chaotic batting collapse to earn a consolation three—wicket victory over england in a rain—affected third and final one—day international, their first win over england in the format since 2001. with eight needed from the final over, ireland lost three wickets in three balls to leave four runs required from the last ball, from which alana dalzell struck the winning boundary. great britain have won their opening davis cup tie
9:52 pm
with finland thanks to billy harris. he came in for us open semifinalistjack draper, who was rested. making his davis cup debut aged 29, harris beat otto virtanen in straight sets in the second singles match in manchester, with the second set going to a tie break. unbelievable atmosphere out here. the home crowd, thank you, pulled me through in the end. when it was tight, the crowd came behind me and made a big difference there, so thank you all. we play weekend, week out for ourselves, but the first time playing for my country and, yeah, great start. dan evans got the day off to to a perfect start for gb, giving them a i—0 lead in the best—of—three encounter, beating the 703rd—ranked aero vasa, also in straight sets. evans and neal skupski couldn't
9:53 pm
complete a british clean sweep, though, as they fell to a straight sets defeat against virtanen and harri heliovaara in the doubles. the british pair struggled in the opening tie—break, and another was looming until finland broke evans' serve to earn a consolation win. britain are aiming to top group d in the four—nation round robin and secure a place in the davis cup finals last eight in malaga later this year. miami dolphins wide receiver tyreek hill says he could have handled himself better in the initial moments of a traffic stop on sunday that led to him being handcuffed and pulled out of his car by police officers near the team's stadium. hill says he wishes he did some things "differently", including leaving the window of his car down when officers instructed him to do so. he instead rolled the window up. the incident escalated quickly from there. however, hill also says he wants one of the officers involved dismissed from the police force. i could've been better.
9:54 pm
you know, i could've let down my window, you know, in that instance. but the thing about me is, man, i don't want attention, i don't want to be, like, cameras out, phones on you in that moment. but at the end of the day, you know, i'm human. i've got to follow rules. i've got to, you know, do what, you know, everyone else would do, you know? so, now, does that give them the right to literally beat the dog out of me? absolutely not, but at the end of the day, i wish i could go back and, you know, do things a bit differently. manchester united say cutting 250 jobs at the club will save them up to £35 million over the next couple of years. it's after they announed losses of 113 million last season, a campaign where united were knocked out of the champions league at the group stage, finished eighth in the premier league,
9:55 pm
but won the fa cup. before the cuts, united had 1150 full—time staff, but a review following sirjim ratcliffe's part purchase of the club aimed to scrap some "nonessential" activities. i continued that england art 128-8, the i continued that england art 128—8, the need 52 from 24. looking unlikely. and that's all the sport for now. hello there. 0n on wednesday when it's chilly at northwesterly airflow across the uk and that brought a mixture of sunshine and showers and some of really beautiful strike of lightning there in nottingham and in the same county, so much hail late afternoon that it completely covered the roads and payments in newark on trent. showers then particularly widespread and i show you this because a similar look to the weather forecast as we head into thursday. here we go, that
9:56 pm
chilly flow of northwesterly air coming down from polar regions and as that cold air gets heated by the seas, that's what makes the showers so as long as his cold feet of air continues to work in, so will the showers will suffer the time being, mostjammers time being, most jammers actually time being, mostjammers actually draped around coastal areas of some inland areas mostly dry with clear spells and it's cold. the rich are starting off a day in the cold spots down to around two celsius, even a bit of ground frost. a really cold start for september. thursday morning lows of sunshine with showers from the word go around coastal areas as we go to the date and those departures rise, the shower start to break out across inland areas from the late morning and into the afternoon. some of the showers can be heavy with hail and thunder and very widespread to most places will see a downpour through the day. temperature is about 10—16 probably the heavy showers i think across the middle of the nation england in the afternoon. by friday, and area fibres are built across
9:57 pm
the uk so that will kill the showers and another very cold start of the day with lots of morning sunshine. this time we start to see some rank move into northern ireland towards the end of the day. another cold day for the time of year which averages about four celsius below average for september. small changing of the week and with an area of low pressure bringing some wet and windy weather and could get gusts of wind of around 50 or 60 mph for the northwest of scotland with the rain piling in here and really accumulating stuff the nation areas should stay dry with some sunshine and with the winds coming in from the south—westerly direction across the uk, temperatures are going to leap upwards closer to average for the time of year with highs of 16—19. and it looks as we had in the next week the high pressure will dominate, so loads of dry weather around next week with the temperatures close to or perhaps even running a little bit above average with some warm sunshine.
