3:08 am
it's the kind of europe moscow would almost certainly prefer to deal with. is another example of deepening north korea and russian georgia's president backs cooperation that we saw on closer ties with brussels. she's worried and is display in the summer when they signed this new treaty that amounts to a military alliance. calling for help. so itjust takes it into a new dimension and keeps us on our it's crucial that the georgian toes and a little bit more people express themselves, that's why it's crucial worried about what the future that our partners and with holds for us.— the population and support us to come back as soon as possible holds for us. just very briefly. _ holds for us. just very briefly, the _ holds for us. just very briefly, the us - holds for us. just very briefly, the us has . holds for us. just very briefly, the us has so | holds for us. just very i briefly, the us has so far limited ukraine�*s use of on the european path. american weapons. do you think there might now be an incentive but not to make it easy for russia to re—establish its for this to be lifted? i domination on its neighbours. there might now be an incentive for this to be lifted?— for this to be lifted? i don't think this — for this to be lifted? i don't think this will _ they made their voices heard for this to be lifted? i don't think this will change - for this to be lifted? i don't think this will change that l think this will change that but membership of the eu feels much. the north korean troops, a long way off now for georgia. it widens the scope of the war in terms of who is projected onto the parliament participating but their numbers building, one word — stolen. are estimated at about 10,000 being deployed to western for many here, that's not just about the election, russia and that�*s not enough to it's about their future. change the overall picture of the battlefield. so, lifting those restrictions might give ukraine opportunities to launch more long—range missile strikes

hey, i�*m bryan, i�*m at the world music fest. i feel like hopefully it goes in the direction i would like it to go. i�*m democratic so i�*m going to vote for kamala. so before we came out here, a lot of people told us we were going to encounter some swingers in the swing states, are you guys swingers? both: no. # i want someone to love me...#. so while sebastien and bryan have made their minds up, many other young georgians are still waiting to be persuaded. jordan kenny, bbc news, atlanta. that�*s all for now — stay with bbc news. hello there. a big blocking area of high pressure is likely to bring us a very quiet spell of weather now for the rest of october and into the start of november. it�*s going to be mostly dry thanks to the high pressure system, and quite mild, with our air source coming in from the south—west. there will be a little bit of sunshine at times, but will often be cloudy.
3:14 am
we could start the days a bit misty and foggy in places. so for tuesday, we�*re losing the weather front. high pressure will be building in across the country, but we maintain this mild air mass which will continue to move up from the south. just the chance of a plunge of cold air, i think will just avoid us and dive into the near continent to the east of us. tuesday, though, will be a rather cloudy start for many. we�*ll see further spits and spots of rain across england and wales, particularly towards the south. but even here we�*ll see some holes appearing in the clouds for some sunny spells, with the best of the sunshine across eastern scotland and north—east england, and the cloud thick enough for some spots of rain for north—western scotland. temperature—wise again mild, mid to maybe high teens. now for tuesday night it stays dry. i think we lose the spots of light rain and drizzle across england and wales. a few clear spells, but there�*ll be a lot of cloud, some mist and fog. temperatures again mild, eight to 11 degrees. this area of high pressure builds in across the country, as you can see for wednesday. so winds will be very light.
3:15 am
so that�*ll be a perfect recipe for some mist and fog to greet us on wednesday morning. pretty much anywhere, but i think greatest chance through central and southern parts of the uk where winds will be lightest. some of that fog may lift into low clouds, so some areas staying grey all day, but other areas will see the sunshine poking through and that will lift temperatures up into the mid to high teens. where we hold on to the cloud and the fog, though, could be closer to the low teens. little change as we head into thursday with this area of high pressure dominating. maybe subtle changes taking place across the far north of scotland into the northern isles, the winds picking up here, some outbreaks of rain, but for much of the mainland it�*s dry. again, could be misty, foggy start for england and wales, where winds will be lightest and then into the afternoon. variable cloud some sunny spells, mostly dry temperatures again mid to high teens. looking pretty good for halloween evening. dry for many, especially england and wales, there�*s a chance of wetter, windy weather for the north and the west of scotland, but the vast majority will stay dry. and for the end of the week into the weekend, it�*s much the same —
