defines overmanaged. 1970 the big commutative stance december 23rd. this is the news live from both the donald trump arrives in london for a landmark nato summit u.s. president has been repeating calls to alliance members to hike their defense spending and says the alliance marks its 70th anniversary which promises to be a list but also coming up. do we really want to be remembered as the

generation debt burden before heading to sam's. while the planet burns. as the united nations climate summit opens in madrid the u.n. secretary general says nations must save the earth by any means but carbon neutrality. that while the typhoon commemorates slams into the philippines hundreds of thousands of forced to flee as the storm makes landfall packing winds exceeding 200 kilometers an hour. i'm anthony how do welcome to the program u.s. president donald trump has arrived in london where he'll be attending a meeting of nato leaders of the next 2 days the meeting mocks the 70th anniversary of the alliance and will likely be dominated by talks about the finances and the pledges night. partners have made to boost their defense budgets before departing

washington the president told the press that it was because of him that nato allies are spending more. today w.'s of a cell in washington than asked him with trump repeatedly costing doubt on the alliances this is it now in danger well whenever it's trump and nato and the member states head so states and government have to be very alert centrally everyone this asking himself right now what's going to happen next what's he going to say next time around and of course one thing is on forgotten his 2017 visit to headquarters in brussels where he essentially talked to the other heads of states and governments of the nato members like a teacher will talk to ill behaved school kids. later called nato obsolete he walked those comments back but a certain dollar always remains just

a couple days ago joe biden the presidential front runner of the democratic party said if trump gets reelected the united states might even leave nato but if you take a closer look this all seems rather like this typical trump rhetoric trying to put pressure on nato partners also his administration made clear that nato is important for the united states but in the end trump remains an unpredictable president so the heads of states and governments in london have to be prepared for any surprise differently now it does seem trump will keep up the pressure on the other member states to increase their military spending. well these he's done that very often to put that pressure on other countries in particular targeting germany for coming short of the so-called 2 percent goal to spend 2 percent of the g.d.p. 2 for the military budget but this time around she seemed to have a more conciliatory tone he took to twitter today before leaving london and said

that since he took office military spending of all nato members grew by $130000000000.00 u.s. dollars which of course he appreciates and also of course he takes the credit for that nato secretary general stoltenberg even talks about an unparalleled progress when it comes to military spending. in nato and to a certain extent it is fair to say that it's at least partially president trumps achievement. that was state of the cell and speaking to me earlier from washington of 2 weeks to save the future that is how many are describing the u.n. climate change conference that's begun in madrid delegates from nearly 200 countries have begun 2 weeks of meetings amid a growing sense of crisis the u.n. secretary general is calling for bold action warning the world risks passing the point of no return the focus right now is on who will launch real action against

climate change last year a new record was set with humans pumping more give you tons of greenhouse gases into the environment than ever before now at the u.n. climate conference in madrid spain delegates from around the world are expected to get clear on exactly how to take action moving forward. u.n. secretary general and tony you could terrorise the war against nature must stop do we really want could be remembered as the generation that bertie be having to send their. wired the planet burns. and the pressure is on the last 5 years where the warmest since humans began recording temperatures extreme weather events are more common sea levels continue to rise to dangerous new levels. pollution in the atmosphere and in our oceans is devastating ecosystems.

but so far most countries are still heading in the wrong direction scientists say the vital markers of climate change are predicted to rise not fall in the coming decade emerging economies are burning more coal and the us one of the largest producers of greenhouse gas emissions pulled out of the paris agreement the u.s. delegation says that will change. unfortunately we are having to fight our way through a bit of a block by the fossil fuel industry but that will not prevail meanwhile europe is setting its sights on leadership the new head of the european commission ursula vander lyon said europe is prepping to blaze the trail to an economy that prioritizes eco friendly innovation climate. 2015 the european green deal is europe's new growth strategy. it will cut

emissions while also creating jobs funded lyon said the e.u. wants to create a transition to climate neutrality that is irreversible with plans to invest one trillion euro in the next decade to make europe the 1st climate neutral continent in the world. the race is on to see who can create leadership that finally brings results. in the philippines powerful typhoon has made landfall the storm swept the show with torrential. 200 kilometers an hour the typhoon has knocked out power in several provinces manila's international airport is due to suspend operations and over $200000.00 people have already fled to safety. with that wind and rain getting stronger coastal residents ran for shelter and batten down the hatches. as typhoon come already approached anything that could be
