british prime minister bars johnson. and i think that is what other people of the, of our countries now want us to, to focus on. they wanted to be sure that we're beating the pandemic together and discussing how will never have a repeat of what we seen. but will say that we're building that better together and building that greener and building that sarah and building that more equal g 7 later degree. a joint approach is the only way to end the pandemic and tackle the climate crisis of the we need everyone across the world to one to work together, especially on the issue of climate protection and bio diversity where we will never find solutions without china. hundreds of climate change protest as much to bring their message as needed to the summit venue as they could get the so we've got

a situation post code it with developing countries drowning in debt as a result of cuz it's failing to get vaccines and failing to get the climate finance they need to help them mitigate their emissions and adapt to the climate crisis. so it's a situation of staggering inequity. and we feel that this needs to be brought to the attention of the g 7 lead. as a day, one of the summit drew to a close activist staged vigil to remember the estimated 3700000 people who died in the pandemic. so we looking for more definite measures to emerge before the gathering wraps up. let's bringing alexander graph. lemme stuff german lawmaker and former vice president of the european parliament. mr. land off . a thank you for being with us. as we heard, recovery from the pandemic is one main focus of the 7 leaders. they've committed to

sharing at least 1000000000 vaccine shots with developing countries. there's some criticism that this is coming way too late. how do you see it? well, i think that particular the european union has made a great effort to step up to its obligation early on. then there was the global program called kovak. it's a reality that the united states and the united kingdom have not exported vaccines . so if the u. s. and the u. k. now joined the you looking out for the countries of the global south. i think that's a very good development. okay. well demonstrative unity. warm words are relaxed. atmosphere generally is the coolest geology we're seeing simply the hope of a post trump era. or is it a reflection of real substantive policy agreements with both? i mean, meghan, we've probably also seen the images from the g 7 meetings with donald trump,

with an attendance to everybody's rotation. it was a very unusual way of offending the summit meetings by and then you, you as president and joe biden is somebody everybody knows the united states are back in a stronger position. they cannot make recoveries. strong vaccine campaign has gone well, and joe biden is, well, 1st of all, he's a, he's a man, you can deal with the man of his word. and it's somebody who will listen to his allies around the table. as you can see, by the way, from the choreography of the coming days, now g 7 is going to be natal, then you. and only then is he going to meet the russian president. so the western world has come together at the g 7 meeting, and i think that's a very good signal. you mentioned president putin, so let's focus on russia for a moment. trump wanted to bring president putin back to the g 7 table. biden comes

with the promise of calling, putting out, instead of cozying up to him. what do you think the g seven's message to russia should be? well, 1st of all, that there is a united view of russia's policies concerning ukraine. this is the legal annexation of crimea. there is the civil war, are supported by russia, fomented by russia in these and ukraine, a country that russia promised to protect when ukraine gave beckett's nuclear weapons. in 994, russia promised to protect the territorial integrity of ukraine by a large russian policies are aggressive and unfriendly. and i think to have the western meetings, as i said, g 7, a 2 and you before the us rush and summers, i think the signal is very strong, that the americans are now looking for western unity. and i think they'll be able to come up with it as well. while the list of problem solving is long economic

recovery after the pandemic unified action plan to protect the world's lands and notions to fight climate change. but his chancel, a miracle mentioned china, isn't even there. how substantial can the results be without a central world player like china? well, of course, the g 7 cannot save the birds to the g. 7 was originally started out as an informal gathering round a fireplace of western leaders to talk without media presence without diplomats without advisors. as a very small informal setting, it has turned into a meeting that everybody takes an interest in, but it has never claimed to solve the world's problems. the united nations are for that the 20th for that. but it's not the place where the work problems as of the place where western liberal democracies gather to compare notes and to agree on

certain steps. and then the next step, you talk to countries outside of the g 7 to bring them on board or to listen to their ideas, demands, and, and, and hammer are compromises with them and, and, and try to find solutions with them. driven law maker alexander graph lunch of really do appreciate your time and your perspective. thank you. let's take a look at some the other stories around the world at this hour. the prominent hong kong pro democracy activists agnes chow, has been released from prison after serving nearly 7 months of a 10 month term child was jailed along with fellow activists. joshua wong and ivan land for her role in the anti vision protests in 2019 china has since imposed a national security audit stifled hundreds of israelis and palestinians have protested against the possible eviction of palestinians in east jerusalem. a group

united nations. and 8 groups are warning that 350000 people in ethiopia is war torn to gray region are facing famine conditions. the u. s. also says millions more in urgent need of food and assistance. they escaped ti grades fighting but not the resulting hunger. the conflict in northern it's jo pierre has been brutal. the food shortage had brought has left adults week and children severely malnourished. oh, the un says hundreds of thousands are likely to die. and it's the young ones who are most vulnerable. when this baby is very lucky to get well after coming here, there are many who didn't get this opportunity. there are babies with complications that couldn't find their way here from many parts of gray. and we'll expect more

when the roads open up. but the roads remain closed even to many of those providing aid. it's going to be dangerous environment for us all be working other than mine. humanitarians have been killed thus far. on every day we have our teams. this is the p n jose partners. everybody has tried to operate in north find them. so challenge to checkpoints. they are increasingly hostile. some to grow residents brave the threats. farmers who can't flee risk their lives by coming out to their fields. they ignore soldiers orders to stop telling the land. they know that if they do not fall, they'll have no food. when i'm not selling a home because of the insecurity, you can see the land is not suitable for farming or even the ox in finding it difficult. the land should have been in its 2nd or 3rd round of tillage, because we haven't had peace, we are unable to till all we can do now is just scrape the surface of the universe

in a local. the despite mounts and criticism at home and abroad. if you appeal to government insists it's providing the needed access for a deliveries. but the patients who make it to the hospitals tell a different story to football now and the european shape ensure pass kicked off in room with italy, beating turkey 3 nil and tournaments opening that after goal is 1st 45 minutes. it really made their domination count in the 2nd half. they took the lead through an own goal before attack is true. mobility and lorenzo in senior wrapped up the straightforward victory. later today, top rank belgium get their euro campaign underway against russia. the talented belgian squad have been without a major tournament when for years and injuries to key players are overshadowing their opening match. belgium rolled into russia after the euro,

2020 qualification campaign that threw up some impressive numbers, played 10. 110 score 40 conceited. just 3, i love those ross that to a star studded squad, including barissi, a darkman to you, actual vet. so talking and to mom and dad. and it's no wonder they're among the big makers favorites to win the tournament, but still surround the squad, long side vit. so belgium's, to tell us management fielders. kevin de brian from manchester city and rail madrid's aiden as have struggled with injury coach rebecca martinez, said the brian and vet. so would miss the 1st game. kevin had to go through a few pages and he's been through those yesterday. they had a very positive day on the grass, but he was in with a group both players following an individual program. even without those to belgium should have too much for russia. with the game being held in saint petersburg,

the russians have home advantage. that didn't help when belgium thrashed them for one they are shooting qualification. belgium have never won a major international tournament. and there are a question marks over the teams mentality and the tactical flexibility of martinez . yet veteran defend thomas from madeline. currently playing his trade in japan's g lead, feels they have enough to go all the way to do that to them, but it also needed we just hope we get our system performance throughout the whole tournament. but with quality in every area of the pitch, it would be no surprise if belgium were to break their major tournament. well, here's a quick reminder of our top story. g 7. leadership drafted an action plan to ensure

the world is better prepared for future pandemic on day 2 of the summit, they're expected to also discuss their approach to the rising influence of china and russia, as well as ways to tackle climate change. you watching the news live from berlin, please to stay with us. arts and culture is next ah the case and above all how it feels jewish life in europe. that's what film producer, kona and journalists, eas, could. goodman are exploring, delving into history and the present. i would never go to judaism, could be live so open.
