many european leaders have expressed outrage and scaled back ties trying hasn't one thing is certain about this g twenty there are going to be some awfully awkward photo ops one world leader not yet in argentina is the german chancellor all the makeover she's missing the summit start because her plane was forced to make an unscheduled landing due to technical problems the aircraft had only been in the air for hours when issues with its communication systems forced it to turn around and land in the western city clone told reporters it was a serious malfunction and she praised the very excellent crew onboard the delay will complicate backhoes full schedule of meetings after two days. of more on this let's bring in our political correspondent kate brady arrival at the g. twenty summit delayed by a technical problem with their plane now there was talk of police launching a criminal investigation in relation to that what's the latest. well we know now
1:05 pm
that the that's the german air force they have now ruled out any suspicions of sabotage and earlier today the commander of the german air forces government fleet actually confirmed that it was in fact a radio communication system which failed while that craft was flying over the netherlands now it's actually due to the fact that they had an onboard satellite phone that they were able to turn the plane around and safely land back in germany in the city of cologne so that component as well which actually forced the plane to be grounded i guess is a evening that has now been replaced and the plane is now fit for use once again ok so if the chancellor can fly or how is she in the rest of it all again and so a large delegation getting to argentina. well a somewhat smaller delegation is now on the way to born us aries earliest his day
1:06 pm
merkel and the german finance minister all off shots took off from cologne borne airport and flew to madrid and then they switched to a connecting flight it's actually a commercial flight all the way to borna serry so still quite a few hours to go until the german chancellor actually makes it to the g. twenty summit and you know how is this going to affect the very full schedule that the chancellor has at the summit well we know now the angle of merkel will definitely make the g twenty banquet tonight with the of the g. twenty leaders but we certainly going to delay some of those bilateral talks that were already scheduled to take place on the sidelines there were talks planned with the u.s. president the chinese president and also from india but we do know for certain now that the planned talks with the russian president vladimir putin that will definitely still take place on saturday but any of the talks they will be confirmed

1:08 pm
there are of course other pressing issues at the summit including how to reduce the rising tensions between russia and ukraine today ukraine has announced a ban on all fighting aged russian men from entering the country and ukrainian president of course franco has again shown evidence of what he says are russian military tanks amassing along this country's border the tanks just kilometers from ukraine are said to be close to where russia stores its ammunition and weapons systems. our correspondent david stern in kiev is following these developments for us david how worried is ukraine about combat aged russian men entering its territory. well apparently very worried about it as you say the president has announced that the men between the ages of sixteen and sixty will be prevented from coming into the country this is part of a general crackdown or restriction he said on all foreigners coming in but they
1:09 pm
will be targeting in particular russians and the reason he said was to prevent them from forming. from forming that military groups but this is all part of the general martial law that we saw introduced to pass by parliament earlier in the week and we've been waiting to see exactly what the elements of this martial law is now it's coming out in bits and pieces and obviously this is going to affect life very people living in the ten territories which are find themselves under martial law on the border to areas near russia and the black and as of seas of david port franco claims that russian tanks are massing along the country's border has there been any independent confirmation of that. well the president has made these comments repeatedly over the last week and it should be said that the ukrainians have said this on a number of occasions before they've said that the russians are massing they fear they have feared incursions but this is the first on the president has said that
1:10 pm
he's expecting a full scale there could be a full scale invasion hence the added measures on the on the borders but it also remains to be seen what exactly the russians intentions are on that they say it should come as any surprise if this is happening but this difference between that obviously and a full scale invasion is quite big and we are. as a result ukrainians especially here in the capital are extremely worried and put it briefly if you could are you koreans expecting a resumption of hostilities in the pro russian east of the country. well i guess you could say they hope for the best and expect the worst it's been that way since the beginning obviously we haven't seen a full scale invasion we may not see it but they're also they are afraid that perhaps the indication of what happened in the hours of c. is a sign that the that the conflict is escalating and perhaps even writing into other
