the who's this is the w news coming to you live from berlin. joe biden looks for a fresh start at his 1st nato summit as us president. he's looking to put the strained years of donald trump in the past. and for it's new cooperation within the alliance. also coming out g 7 leaders leave behind. there's so much in the u. k. with pledges to tackle the current of virus pandemic and climate change. so what

have they committed to plus ultra nationalists. natalie bennett bleeds israel's new coalition, government pledging 2 and 2 years of political stalemate. but what can he achieve as head of a fragile party alliance and tennis? great, no back joker, bitch edges closer to a grand slam milestone to serve racks up. another major title after a come back when at the french open to leave him one short of equaling the benz all time. rec. ah, me. hello, i'm terry martin. good to have you with us. several g, 7 leaders are summit hopping today, heading from england to brussels, where nato was holding a meeting of its 30 heads of state and government. us president joe biden wants to

strengthen americans ties with the alliance after the tropic, ministration. for the 1st time, nato leaders are expected to adopt the statement pledging more action against global warming. they, those troop withdrawal from afghanistan is also on the agenda. the members are expected to call on china to respect international commitments. ahead of the opening, secretary generally installed back, clarified its position on beijing. there are of course so for to induce on many to engage with china on issues like climate change, arms control china. some military build up growing influence on coercive behavior also poses challenges to our security and we need to address them together asked alliance. we're not entering a new cold war, finalize no, not our, at the certain of our enemy about. we need to address together ask the

lions the challenges that the routes are trying our pulses to our security heavy correspond. terry sholtes is standing by nato headquarters. so terry nathan 2nd, terry general, they're saying that we're not entering a new cold war with china, but what can we expect from nato in its response to china? good morning, terry. yes, nato very much hopes there will not be a new cold war with china. china spends with abandon on its military, it has the 2nd largest armed forces in the world after the united states, and it already has the largest navy. it is not bound by any arms control treaties. so this is very much a country that nato wants to keep on the level. it does not want increase tensions, especially when the relationship with russia is going so badly and requires so much attention from nato allies. so i would say that secretary general silverberg was

being a bit euphemistic in saying that it is not an adversary. that's how nato wants to keep it. but nato allies are very worried. the united states foremost among them. ok, so what else is on the agenda there? today that nathan cemetery well, even though china has risen to the top of the agenda, which i might add is quite interesting because it was only 2019. the 1st time nato addressed china at all. but everything else still remains on the agenda. as i mentioned, russia very much your concern relations with russia going very badly, especially between the us and russia, which hopefully will be addressed later this week when president biden and meet bilaterally in geneva. the trump administration's insistence on european allies spending more on their own military trying to get to this 2 percent pled that's not going away either. and president biden is going to be quite stringent about this, perhaps putting it in more delicate ways. but the united states is really tired of

european allies, not putting enough money and resources into their own armed forces. one other issue that is, it is quite interesting, rising up nato's agenda as what they call a crisis multiplier. it will be high on today's summer to communicate that is climate change. there is a new era of opportunity for nato to expand its vision. now that improved transit lactic ties have eased, concerns over the alliance's most fundamental mission collective defense. we consider article fiber, saker committed. this gives nato secretary general install tempered space to launch initiative. i'm thinkable during the trumpet administration among his highest ambitions for nato to become a leader in combat in global warming for his own sake. as military, they're having to adapt their operations and installations to rising temperatures, as well as prepared to respond to more natural disasters and crises,

overtaxed resources once we have to do is partly to improve the way we just understand the link between security and climate change. we need to adopt the way we conduct our missions and operations, and then we have to reduce emissions from mentor operations. dalton berg would like to see made a military contribute more to the goal of carbon neutrality by the year 2050. but there won't be any binding commitments. some governments are less than enthusiastic about climate action becoming a nato issue. but still simberg is undeterred. even if i'm not very concerned about global warming is, should be concerned about the need to have modern military equipment. and i'm absolutely certain that in the future, more than mentor equipment will be environmentally friendly. one immediate task will be to help countries figure out how much their defense sector's actually emit . because today, few countries measure those that do are allowed to keep the figure secret. when you look at the tables here, you know it's none reported in on report to the european union lawmaker mall in

york helped lead an effort to expose military emissions of some european countries . even though climate agreements do not require governments to account for them. if he's an, except of all that the military is exempt from reporting obligations and then also from strategies to reduce carbon emissions. a 2019 reported by brown university identified the us military as the largest single emitter of greenhouse gases on the planet. but european military's are also responsible and must do their share, says former head of the dutch defense forces tom, min dork. he was nicknamed the green generals several years ago when he started pressing this message. i'm know the climate activist, i'm really, i'm a military professional now retired middle door devote much of his time to what he calls climate proofing defense. he says this is not optional. now we are finding out how it shapes our security environment, how it shapes our geopolitical environment and how it affects our capabilities. so

increasingly, we realize that we have to take the seriously and that we need to be part of that game to counter it. and even if allies are divided middle dorothy encourages stilton berg to aim high and fight hard for climate action. so terry big issues being discussed there that nathan somebody including the implications of climate change, but nuts and bolts problem still need addressing. not least, denise, that nato is pulling its troops out there. the drop down is due to be complete later this year. is that all really settled now? it sort of feels that way, terry. because of course, i've got to stand used to be so high on the agenda of every nato meeting and it's not going to be at this summit. we've talked about some of the things that are of really pressing concern china climate change. cyber is also going to be something that is, that has talked about the challenges from russia, as with afghan to stand with the draw down decided with,

with nato and us forces pulling out by september at the latest as it's now planned . it's sort of feels like that big decision has been made. nato does have a lot of questions to answer about its future relationship with afghanistan because it has pledged to continue supporting the afghan armed forces. it also says that it will continue to help protect women to keep girls in school to help protect civil society that, that has been allowed to grow while the while the armed forces have been there while the nato forces have been there and those people and those institutions are very concerned now without the protection of international forces and nato doesn't have the answers to these questions yet. secretary general sold and burg is honest about that. they're going to have to talk about how they continue to support this country where they devoted the last 2 decades to try to stabilize it. terry, thank you so much. as always, that was d, w, corresponded terry schultz in russell's now g 7 leaders wrapped up their summit over the weekend,

addressing some of the world's biggest challenges, including the pandemic and climate change. but more than anything, the summer in cornwall, england was a chance to reassert transatlantic unity after the fractious trump years. covered 19 climate change and china challenges that both united and divided leaders of the world's largest economies. as they closed out their 3 day summit devoted to a shared pledge to build back better brushing aside a squabble. over breakfast in northern ireland, british prime minister boris johnson, proclaimed it a hugely successful meeting of mines is being fantastic degree of home. and i mean, between the leaders of the, of our, of our countries. and if you need to put some of these, they come together to, to agree, you know, 1000000000 more days is 1000000000 more vaccines. everyone agreed to pay the use of coal, a new atlantic charter plan to build back for the well,

i didn't think that i really, i could've asked for a more cooperative or, or a more energetic spirit from i for my friends and friendship for a dominant team. with us president joe biden and his committed transit lattices and warmly embraced bite and declared victory and getting support for a tougher stance on china. as well as a plan to invest perhaps trillions and developing countries to create an economic counter wait to beijing belt and wrote initiative with higher standards for human rights and labor. g 7 explicitly agreed to call out human rights abuses. seeing jang in hong kong, explicitly to, to coordinate a common strategy to deal with trying to non market policies that undermine competition and agreed. and that's under way. now how to do that 3 to take serious actions against force labor in solar ag culture in the garment industry because that's where it's happening. and they've agreed we will do that. the final

communicate also emphasizes the need for a thorough investigation into the origins of covered 19, including in china, that's aimed at preventing another pandemic, while german chancellor ogle america, welcome to the pledge to donate more vaccines. now to end this one here, i'm going, i, ne, does, through the funding here, we agreed. discipline demick can only be defeated globally. and the way out of the pandemic is vaccines. and we must ensure access to vaccines for all dusted into bank. i love to install from visual stand, but warming ties among global leaders didn't produce much action against global warming. the g 7 renewed, a pledge to raise a $100000000000.00 per year to help poor countries deal with climate change that was due to be fulfilled already last year. before in the history, the g. to be such a big fight, in contrast to what needs to be more protesters,

a weight biden. and if you're a peon counterparts in brussels as they meet monday for a summit at nato. for more we're joined out by our chief international editor, richard walker. richard host boris johnson, put a very positive spin on that summit, wasn't really as successful as he makes. now to be yellow, cherry, it is natural for this. somebody hose to put a positive spin on things, especially if your bar is johnson. of course that's, that's his style, but i think much more important here than the host of the americans. of course, this will go by news day view, all kind of re entry to the world states is becoming president earlier this year and his team is, can be pretty happy, i think, going back home after this, rather going on to brussels for the nato. some everything go broadly, has been project to unity and projecting competence. and i think on both front say going to be fairly happy on unity. it's true. northern ireland has been a bug bare between you and the u. k. and that sort of squabble if not resolved yet,

that is a bit of a fly in the ointment, but the broader picture of the west kind of rallying together and saying that we want to take on the big challenges, the kind of competence issues like we can deal with a pandemic. we can deal with economic recovery. we can deal with climate change for all of the criticisms that there are on these individual point. still the g 7 is saying, we are here. we are able to do these things. and i think the buying team will be quite happy with that. now that she's 7 singled out china for criticism, richard scolding at over human rights violations and unfair trade practices. how's this going to affect relations with china? well, the chinese is definitely not going to be happy with this. their embassy in london, in fact, put out a statement before their g 7 communicate came out. so say, you know these, this is not the club that rules the world anymore. but this was really a key area where bite and thought that unity and he seems to have got a decent amount of it. i mean, buying this framing this year as

a kind of battle of the systems between democracies and autocracies. and many europeans are very uncomfortable about that, particularly here in germany, where the economy is highly dependent on china. they're very concerned about about getting into to confrontational a situation with china. and yet, despite that, the communicate this statement at the end of the summit, singled out china over 4 distinct areas and implicitly think that china, in many other areas to i think again on this the bio team is going to be quite happy for sure. thank you. so much chief international editor, richard walker. stick a look at some other stories making headlines around the world today. protesters in male mar, have taken to the streets ahead of the trial of austin civilian leader also. and so she, she paces a raft of charges brought by the military hunter, if convicted, so she could spend more than 10 years in prison. to americans pleaded guilty to helping former nissan boss carlos gone fleet japan while out on bail and 2019 former special forces better in michael taylor and his son peter face up to 3 years

in jail for smuggling going on to a private plane and is wanted in japan for fraud, a law aimed at cutting greenhouse gas emissions in switzerland has been narrowly defeated after 51 percent of voters rejected it. the legislation which was designed to help the country meet its paris climate agreement targets would have increased a surcharge on car fuel and imposed to levy on flight tickets and tens of thousands of right wing protestors have marched in madrid to denounced spanish government plans to pardon a dozen cadillac leaders, they were jailed for the roles in the 2017 failed independence bid. protest took place at the central square that has become a symbol for right wing demonstration. show these really parliament has nearly approved a new government putting an end to benjamin netanyahu. is record 12 years as prime minister. he'll be replaced by former line of tale bennett,

who's even more to the right than nothing yahoo! but bennett is promising israelis a fresh start after 2 years of political stalemate. and the few pumps surely were at the start of new days, hardships, and it's not an exaggerated word, the hardships of establishing the unity government behind us. now the eyes of the people of israel, of everyone are on us. and now we have to prove ourselves. we will work together in partnership with responsibility in order to mend the rift in the nation . we will bring back a functioning country. after the long period of paralysis and quarrels said, she took submit the books, but in the there dancing in the streets after the critics of outgoing israeli prime minister measurement netanyahu celebrate the end of his leadership and the start of a new era of government. it's greg

mold and the you couldn't become a should. netanyahu has been the dominant. it's really politician of his generation prime minister for 12 consecutive years after serving a 3 year term in the 1995 a month. okay. did you coalition is a hodgepodge of 8 parties together by central liter? you're lucky with help from alternation, no less liter natalie bennett. bennett who made millions and i was the protege of netanyahu was sunday. the razor thin, both the right wing nationalist has become prime minister in your me to tell him of benjamin and sarah netanyahu. we didn't always agree along the way, but both of you have sacrificed a lot personally in order to serve the people of israel daily. so that's

also part of the coalition. arab israeli lawmakers, a 1st israel air bleeders say joining the government is risky, but worth it when i can, we are aware that this step brains a lot of risk and difficulty. but the opportunity for us is huge to change the equation and the balance of power and the connected and the new government. even that with fragile majority budget to feel the countries divisions now move out that he and his party will be back up. i will lead you on a daily fight to overthrow this dangerous left wing government and with god's help and what happened much sooner than you think you must shot them was we? but the former prime minister's most pressing battle might be the corruption charges he's facing, which he and his supporters call politically motivated attacks. a spring in

jerusalem corresponded here, tonya kramer, tonya, how is this coalition of left wing central right wing? and are parties ever going to be able to agree on a common policy? well, that's probably the question is also in the mind of israelis over here it is, it has been described as one of the most diverse coalition in governments. is where you always have coalitions that form a government. but this one is particular because it has parties that are coming from across the political inspection from the hotline alternation. this right to the center to the left, to the left. and they have little in common and that is also reflected a bit. and the coalition agreements that were published on friday, we heard also enough tally, been saying that they will focus on those issues. they can agree on, for example, on some economic issues on transportation, on building new infrastructure,

but they will have to deal of course, with other issues that are coming up. for example, the cease fire with us in garza, it's very franchise if there will be problems they have to deal with it and we have to wait and see how they're going to work together on that. tell me what's next for benjamin netanyahu yesterday in parliament. he said he'll be back in the prime minister's chair soon. how likely is that while on the one hand, benjamin netanyahu is also a standing trial. in 3 corruption cases. these are charges that he denies and his opponents has always said he can't be prime minister at the same time that he's spending trial. on the other hand, to understand that he is intending to be the opposition leader, he will be most likely the leader of a very strong opposition. the liquid is still the largest party and the committed. and also you will be joined by the orthodox parties that are also not for the 1st

time in years joining a government he already has said, you heard that in the records that he's buying to, to, to come back at some point whether he will be able to do so, that is still to see in our report there, tony, we saw people celebrating netanyahu's. ouster is a representative of the general mood in the country when i think we have, you know, very different opinions about that. and i talked to a lot of people in the past week or so, you know, on the center left, people are actually happy that mister netanyahu is gone. for now. some are not so happy about the choice of the new prime minister, enough tardy, bennett. but they said, maybe that's necessary to have this change. on the other hand, of course, you know, the writing came to a lot of disappointment and anger, but they also people may be saying, we have to give this government

a chance. i think what is really wanted to see that this government is functional and that is less polarizing what they have seen in the past years and then enter political same as a country has been in for the past 2 and a half years. tony, thank you so much. the w. jerusalem correspondent, tanya kramer, the tennis down at the french open. no joke of which has won the men's singles title after a grueling dual. we're stuffing us to keep us young. greek won the 1st 2 sets against the veteran, sir, but then jock, which dug into prevail in the final 3 sets and a match that lasted almost 4 and a half hours step enough since the pass and insane the court as a grand slam champion in waiting the great baseline looking to his 1st facing off against the serbian hunting, his 2nd title in paris. the pe i tried to heavy blows from the outset, but it was the younger man who dominated the 1st to sit
