2:00 pm
the jewish senior, the 2 part documentary starts july 5th lawn, d w. the news news. this is dw news life from berlin. the a pivotal nato summit opens in brussels. us president, jo, by the looks to defrost transatlantic ties to the turbulent trump security challenges from china. and russia top the agenda, even though the nato chief balls that there's no new cold war. also coming up
2:01 pm
alternation is necessarily bennett lees. israel's new coalition government creating 2 in 2 years of political fail made. but what can he achieve as head of the fragile life? and children make up the majority of the cases in a small package funny, it's a tragic outbreak. their parents could have been avoided. that's great to know that chocolate which is closer to a grand slam milestone. this breaks up a nother major title after a come back when at the french open to leave him one short of equal in the men's old timeframe. ah hello, i'm christine. wonder it's good to have your company. world leaders are meeting in brussels where a nato is being held with 30 heads of state and government. now you as president
2:02 pm
biden is reaffirming america's commitment to nature after he's treated says the court is obsolete. a global warming and security and i've kind of stand on the agenda. natal members are also expected to call on china to respect international commitments. now ahead of the opening secretary general against dalton clarified its position on beijing. what we have seen over several years is significant military build up by china investing heavily in new military capabilities, including new capabilities and also more advanced weapons systems. we see coercive behavior, for instance, for instance in the south china sea. and we also know that china does not share or values. we see how they're cracked down on the gothic protests in hong kong, and also prosecutor minorities in their own country and use mold on technology,
2:03 pm
social media, facial recognition, to monitor and surveillance, their own population. the way we've never seen before. all of this month, this for our security, we're not entering a new cold war under china is not our, at the certain of our enemy. but we need to address together ask the alliance the challenges that the routes which i know pulses to our security and database correspondence. here schultz is standing by at the nato headquarters in brussels. good to see you, terry. so we, we've heard the native secret general over they tell us that there's no new cold war, but how, how can we expect made so to deal with what he is calling the china challenge? that's right, christine nato definitely does not want to portray china as an enemy. but you heard the secretary journal general list all the concerns they have about china. it is
2:04 pm
the 2nd largest military in the world after the united states. it already has the largest navy. it doesn't follow international norms, it is not predictable. it cracks down on pro democracy protesters and on minorities . so this is just the country that nato definitely wants to keep the front and center it wants to let the aging know it's watching. it doesn't approve of this behavior, and it would like to bring china into international norms that it can be a predictable and stable world country. and the nato then will know how to handle is relations with aging theory standby. because i'd like for us to have a listen to the jimmy trying to get medical talking on the other nature threats russia and we'll pick up from there. and as soon as the door come, do you believe hybrid challenges are becoming increasingly significant, such as cyber attack, especially when it comes to russia? of course, this information campaigns, many nato allies, including germany, also affected by this is in use. we will talk about the situation in ukraine while
2:05 pm
we are also seeing big challenges and about the co operation between nato and countries like georgia and ukraine. vendor. and we will, of course, speak about the threat such as we are seeing in belgrade, where human rights are being trampled on. ok, so we've just been the same to the german chancellor outlining really a number of issues pertaining to russia. can we expect that nato will take a tougher line on russia? well, christine, while nato has only been discussing china since 2019. these threats from russia, of course, are long standing. russia has been nato's rival for decades, and they are concerned that russia does seem to be taking a more and more aggressive stance in situations like cyber criminality. in with this downing of the airliner between the 2 e u countries to nato allies, where the bell russian journalist was arrested,
2:06 pm
these are very concerning to nato. so i would expect that we're will hear strong language on russia. i wouldn't expect we'll see any more actions taken by nato. actually at the moment, they just want to quit the signal out there to moscow that this is not acceptable behavior. talking about signals. we know that washington wants to use this particular summit to signal to its partners here in europe that it is committed to this alliance. terry, do you get the sense that this is a new beginning affords for nato, with bite and in the white house? it definitely is, christine, not only is the u. s. e, or to reassure allies. those allies are very eager to be reassured. we hear president biden say over and over again that article 5, the fundamental tentative nato collective defense is a secret commitment by the united states. and that's something they really needed to hear of these 4 turbulent trump years. so you'll see a lot more back slapping here at nato people, you know, happy to have the united states back on board. and then they'll have to get back to
2:07 pm
these tough issues where there isn't always agreement between the transit lender allies, but at least now the discussions will be in a much more civil form than they were in the last 4 years. right, that's terry schultz. she is that this is headquarters in brussels reporting for us . thank you very and let's take a look at some of the stories making us around the world. protesters in may and may have taken to the streets ahead of the trial of the ousted leader on some through cheese. she faces a ross of charges for by the military gym and if convicted, that she could spend more than 10 years in prison. 2 americans pleaded guilty to helping the former nissan boss carlos code 3 japan while out on bail in 2019 form, a special force veteran michael taylor and his son peter faced up to 3 years in jail for smuggling going on to a private plane go is wanted in japan for fraud, and i was operators of a nuclear plants near hong kong, said they are dealing with
2:08 pm
a quote performance issue. off the report of the league, china and france who co owned the teisha nuclear plant se is operating within safety limits. now, us media claims washington has been assessing the safety great there and tens of thousands of writing processes as marched into madrid to denounce the spanish governments, plans to pardon a dozen capital and these, as they were jailed for their roles. in the 2017 failed independence took place at the central square that has become a regular spot for the right wing demonstration. and now for the 1st time in 12 years, israelis have a prime minister who is not benjamin netanyahu. but he's former ally enough, tony bennett takes over as head of a new coalition government which was narrowly approved by lawmakers. he's even more to the rights than this and yahoo, but promises israelis a fresh start after 2 years of political stalemate.
2:09 pm
the on the streets of tel aviv celebrations come on the end of an era and the dawn of a new one. after a frantic round of deal making the increasingly unpopular prime minister benjamin netanyahu has been pushed from power by an unlikely alliance. i celebrate. i me and my friends were celebrating the new government because it's something new, something fresh, good people, and all the sides of the country. i'm in the right side, the left side not only side, i didn't get to do with every child. netanyahu is replaced by enough tally bennett, who's a party government was confirmed by the connected on sunday. and if you come at the start of new days, hardships, and it's not an exaggerated word, the hardships of establishing the unity governments are behind us. now the eyes of
2:10 pm
the people of israel, of everyone are on as and now we have to prove ourselves. bennett, who made millions in it, was a netanyahu protege, the right when nationalist has dislodged the dominant israeli politician of his generation. netanyahu served as prime minister for 12 consecutive years after a 3 year term in the ninety's. the new government with forged by centrist leader, yet your latino, it includes era, lawmakers, 1st for israel, they say joining the government is ricky, but worth it. when i came, we are aware that this step brings with it a lot of written and difficulty. the opportunity for us is huge. to change the equation and the balance of power in the method is and in the new government. even as the fragile majority pledges to heal the countries deep divisions,
2:11 pm
netanyahu aim is to stoke those divisions in search of a comeback. but i will leave you on a daily fight to overthrow this dangerous left wing government. and with god's help, it will happen much faster than you think. you must shut down. the departing prime minister's most pressing battle might be the corruption charges . he's facing charges that have already played a big part in derailing his premier ship. they're not going to talk to dahlia. she and when she's a political analyst and fellow as the century foundation until of eve. she's lived as an advisor and several campaigns that welcome to the w admissions. and thank you for making the time to talk. so as the, the change coordination is about as diverse as it gets, it and some watches have suggest that it may not last for very long. because other than wanting to asked for a prime minister netanyahu,
2:12 pm
they share little common ground, the parties. what is your view? so there's no question caesar idea logically, very different kinds of parties. but i do think that when we say that they share no common ground other than else on yahoo, i think it's an accurate because only because it's not just about ousting him, it's about changing the direction and the manner in which he led the countries. i think if we consider that distinction, they are united over certain harnesses of how he ran the country, whether it's criticism of his very divisive populist and often dangerous rhetorical style. always looking for internal enemies to attack and targeting. whether it's israel, minorities, or left wingers or the media. and some of them were critical also of policies of his maybe not everything about his policy, but certain aspects of the policy. for example, you know, disproportionate control and influence the ultra orthodox parties and israeli life
2:13 pm
. and so they share more in common when it came to how and that's a yahoo. ok, not only not only united over whether else to me or not. okay. and that's maybe the 1st test for this coalition does come on tuesday when, when far right? jewish group plan on marching through penson in neighborhoods, it's the attention could be scope, is also the gaza sci fi as well. what's your sense of how they'll say when it comes to situations like this, you know, it's going to be very precarious. i mean, i don't disagree with the assessment that this is a coalition that is certainly in danger of not lasting too long because of the kinds of differences that exist between them and the march that slated to happen for tuesday tomorrow is certainly going to be a test, not only of the government, but of how precarious the situation is right now with the palestinians and with it, i think a lot will depend on how many people actually show up to be part of that very provocative demonstration, which is primarily intended as a provocation. right,
2:14 pm
and i think that that will depend on whether the right wing leaders whose party and from the further right ultra nationalists, religious scientists party, how much they actually call upon their followers to demonstrate whether they, you know, restrain themselves to encouraging some people as a show as a symbolic protest, but maybe not asking for a whole on the invitation that could make the difference. of course, it only takes one or 2 publications, sometimes things in this country and then the government will have a very short, you know, great. not even a great time, just a very short period of time to make decisions about how it handles the security. great. let's talk about the, the new apartment. it's been, that's been, it's, he's even further to the rights than the nist. yahoo! what do you, how do you think he is going to make use of his time in the prime minister's office? well, it's very hard to know what he can do. i mean, if he is more right wing, then it's in yahoo! in the sense that he was more firmly committed to annexation in the west banks
2:15 pm
years before and on yahoo was actively talking about it. he and his party and what the partner, the leader, and the other person who was a prominent member of his party at times they have led his parties together. again, the chickens are very committed for example, to restraining the power and independence of these really judiciary and they're against digital activism. they have been working towards that in a way that now who himself was and so personally engaged in over the years. and the question of whether they continue can they can continue those programs. i think they are limited and they're limited. this is of course the accusation of the right away of the far right wing is that they won't be able to advance programs to some extent. that's correct. they are in the coalition with, you know, in which the biggest party 17 seats belong to get your latino who is says, he's not exactly left way. but he doesn't share, certainly the position on annexation or on constraining the israeli judiciary, which is one of the kinds of domestic right wing. also we can talk about and there are worse parties to the left of mr. and even the other parties on the right,
2:16 pm
such as of the door lieberman's party and you don't start with a break where they could, they share right wing position, but maybe not as far. right? so i don't think they'll be able to advance, you know, very far reaching right agenda even if they would want to lower. okay, let's talk about the, the significance of having an error policy and government. now it's hugely significant. it is a precedent for israeli society, it has never happened that an independent era party has been part of the governing coalition, especially on the nation. there are minimal precedents in the past. for example, you con robins government after he lost his majority, depended on the both of the parties at the time for particular policies, but never has a governments in one day depending on the boat of an independent party and independent party representing our palestinian citizens of israel. and that is a major psychological barrier for a country that is very committed to its identity as the jewish state,
2:17 pm
which for many israeli jews, takes the form of a government that is dominated by jewish parties. certainly in coalition. and so there has been a real change over the last couple of years. partly because mr doesn't know who himself, in his desperation to stay in power has talked, held talks with the same party that is currently in the government form of government with the sun, yahoo! and now he has of course, criticizing the new governments saying that they went in with, you know, an hour party which is against zine and all right. thank you for that. the thoughts of daily shad lynch? she's a political analyst and fellow at the century. foundation until the thank you. thank you for having me and turning to pakistan where at home in the southern and province is struggling to deal with an outbreak of h. i v. the class, the in russ darrow was reported in april 2019. most of those affected were children . now when it emerged that the majority of cases appeared to be linked to one of your floors, he took action,
2:18 pm
but many families are still suffering. this 4 year old girl it's one of many 100 stuff contracted h i v new the town of rotten darrow's in southern pakistan. her mother had kima shaw is now also h i v positive. she said they're getting some help from the government, which is not, you know, and she's afraid he isn't begging about how can one get into a child for a lifetime. sometimes we forget sometimes a child makes a with very pool, a wake up with sunrise and start working to who can give her medicines regularly. this medical center was set up in response to the must outbreak of h. i v among children in the town in 2019 to tend to hands out the anti retroviral drugs used to treat h i v for free that families have to cover all other calls. they say this is wrong, especially as the tragedy that hits their community 2 years ago could have been
2:19 pm
avoided. dr. bonnie was the one who raised the alarm about to growing number of h. i v cases among children. in 2 months i won't be given all those would have any famously lowes would having the same symptoms and the other 2 police report. so the cases will link to the reuse of $33.00 inches by one doctor in the town. he denied the charges he was arrested, but he's now out on bail. some accused the authorities of scapegoating the doctors to try to cover up the government's own shortcomings. and it's failure to provide even basic health care for the majority of people. in the aftermath of the disaster, the regional government try to improve the situation by checking doctors were following the rules. but critics say they've since become less strict. and for the families and children in the communities hit by the h i the outbreak,
2:20 pm
they still know engine site to their suffering, disruption and innovation. that's the focus of this years. these are the global media forum message from the german trying to get a mac. and an address from the man hoping to succeed as chancellor. that's the cds candidate on the ship kicked off the today, international conference, not every year dw brings together media, professional and decision makers from politics, civil society, culture business and find them to meet and discuss. and explore solutions now this year, participants are more than $120.00 countries. discuss the challenges and opportunities of options and innovation in the global media landscape every day. in her opening message, the german chancellor underlined the importance of freedom and basic rights in a rapidly changing media world. we're living people we are experiencing deep shifts and the media landscape driven by digital technologies and social networks. but how do we want to deal with the transformation? how do we want to use the technical possibilities and for what purpose,
2:21 pm
what values, principles, and rules do we want to apply? also in the digital world, in the mccarthy, in democratic societies in which we are open to new developments, we have to keep carefully thinking about what freedom really means to us and how we go about protecting freedoms and fundamental. right. we're seeing that i should d. w also spoke to mac or financial success as chancellor. that's the cd. you lever annual try and with failure, stay premier in russia. now it is are in chief menu and a caspar claridge asked for his take on foreign policy issues that he could face as germany's leader. mr. lashes. a new chapter in transatlantic relations seems to be open. now. what's your take on this? i can see the u. s. is returning to the walls, health organization and it's engaging at the united nations again, and it's reviving 37 processes we just saw over the weekend and weren't over. and i
2:22 pm
believe we should see this moment on the president's idea of a coalition of democracies around the world that work closely together. it's a particular opportunity for europe and for germany to be strongly involved. y'all shouts on, getting a clear us then pointed towards russia. what does that exactly mean for you? you didn't have to you for calling for a tough or approach need to say what they mean by a tough approach happens with sanctions of breaking off diplomatic relations or anything like that will be wrong. when, when things get difficult, you have to talk more not less vinegar. this is what's a good thing that joe biden, the american president, will be meeting president putin in the next few days when the american and russian presidents meeting again as last. and that's more important than never in times of crisis was denton bass power describe the increase inside. and mia that talks between the u. s. and germany about north stream to what are the preconditions so
2:23 pm
that not for him to connect legal on life. these are pipeline high play must not be used to black male ukraine or the bell takes dates of poland, poland. but once it's been built, it will be an additional good part of free energy supply, as all who does and the pipeline will go into opperation. this year name and, and when the gas starts flowing, we need to keep close eye on these geopolitical rules and the protection of ukraine . and that's been agreed on a european level to the human rights abuses. and bella was that part of the discussion, as she said, meeting you met settler not you are not clear personally, she's the opposition leader. beloved. and she's asking for a tougher thing shows what could tougher sanctions look like? yes, isn't so. and even the 1st sanctions that we decided on band, the below rationale and from flying over european union territory,
2:24 pm
fuqua's asia like why not flying from our side over bela ruth, which also hits the state financially, was up to then putting officials involved in human rights violations. directly or indirectly on the targeted things, unless you think some of these officials have their own business interests, including president brushing himself. these are in their activities that companies need to come into the european union sanction regime, activity and film. and listen, once that us as soon as they seemed that hasn't happened yet, that is what i would like to see expanding the sanctions to increase targeted pressure on president lucas shank calling mock and president. question. mr. lasha. thank you very much for the interview. the some 10 is now and at the french open, novak joker, which has won the men's singles title after a grueling jewel with stiff c. c plus the young greek won the 1st 2 sets against

the veteran 3rd, but then joke which dug into prevail in the final 3 sits in a match that lasted almost 4 and a half step enough to 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 tried to heavy blows from the outset, but it was the younger man who dominate 1st to sit up was in command, but the serbian responded equal measures of power. precision and plain old leg work would square the match which the
2:26 pm
longer the match went. the more the remarkable fitness of the serbian came to the for more than 4 hours later, jarvis had grand slam title number 19. the only one, he said forgettable matches unforgivable moments for for me, for my career, for my life. i definitely remember these, these last 48 hours for the rest of my life, the victory mains, novak jock of it just now, just one. when behind breath, a on the dial and roger federer on the list of all time, grand slam champion and a reminder of our top story at this hour, a major summit has opened in brussels. the for discuss security challenges from china. russia ended up going back and for the 1st time today to speak to, to pledge more action on global warming. israel new prime minister has taken off this off to pass parliament mary the voted in favor of the new coefficient
2:27 pm
governance. the alternation is necessary, bennett will provide over a fragile alliance of a parties. benjamin who was ousted from office off the record 12 years as prime ministers who's watching data being used from lin eco india. i'll environment shows up next that i'll see at the top of the next hour. the news the news, the news
2:28 pm
the news, the india in the end wave, especially for culture. ah, somebody a lot of ways to help me wrong on hungry command vonny radio station connects people contributing to environmental preservation into cons
2:29 pm
w. ah, sometimes a seed is all you need to allow big ideas to grow. we're bringing environmental conservation to life with learning like global ideas. we will show you how climate change and environmental conservation is taking shape around the world and how we can all make a difference. knowledge grows through sharing, download it now for young moroccan immigrants. they know the police were
2:30 pm
they knew that the route is not a solution. they know their flight could be going back. not an option. peace ma, i'm on and they are stuck in the spanish border area alongside other young people there waiting for a chance that will probably never come. shattered dreams starts june 18th on d, w. ah. the news wherever you find water trees middle, you often find people to where all reliant on beef and other natural resources to live well for communities living close to them. this is what the book and of course
2:31 pm
on to the is sure. let's with the people most impacted by are increasing hunger for natural resources. hello, welcome to eco india. funnel cool. let's starting with coal mines of central india . majority of the countries still gets its electricity from the cold burn from mines like these one policy because an activist got in a deadlock over the development of environment protection. the bid communities who live close to these mines having to face some devastating consequences of report or travel to their villages to find out more of the go see anything except claims, all the way up to the eisen. let's just consider the cheapest fuel. i want to find
2:32 pm
out it's to cost me goldberg district, and central india is a major power hub. and home to some of the biggest mines on the planet. me all the faces covered because it's just, just like if we did it all over my face, i spent a lot of days reading about coal and coal mining in this country. but seeing the mines on both sides of the road all the way to horizon scale that you've gone comprehend. unless you're india is the 2nd largest producer and consumer of call in the world after china. and the demand for energy is rising for here than anywhere else. unlike in the us will be you where natural gas was found, india currently has no large scale replacement call yet with its abundance of a no major alternative called remains the cheapest and easiest source of energy.
2:33 pm
and so extraction continues. in june 2020, the prime minister announced $41.00 new blog spending around 470 square kilometers of land would be open for mining. and in february 2021, the number stood at 75. but burning, call it already driving emissions dramatically up worldwide. and pollution from the toxic smoke is not responsible for one in 5 debts globally. arguably, the most dia impacts of coal mining are local. i went to go meet communities that live around mines like this to understand the impact of call on their lives the way. so it, it, well it's not. it's not even. and in fact, this is one among tens of thousands of villages that lie within india, mining belts. around 2 thirds of the regions,
2:34 pm
inhabitants are tribal or indigenous. the can, the village is literally sitting on a mine that is hollowed out the ground beneath it. the 31 indigenous families, he'll live with the consequences of the extreme proximity to a coal mine every day. my mother is a member of the tribe called the bundle i was born in this forest. she wants to show me what is now happened to this source. of fresh water it's completely black full of pool and i show you how to get the dish goes directly to our fields and her crops don't group, nothing does. it's huge problem. it just settles there just like it has here. several, several, it's number 2. among them on the stream here is toxic. pick with the ash that means
2:35 pm
after the extracted call is washed, as well as with remnants of dynamite that was used to blast the ground. the coal mining company was asked to provide fresh pipe water instead, but that is still the to the lot. the human animals can drink, how can v? so what happens if you drink it more? there are, everything hurts we get headaches and fevers. this water bonding, while we were talking things, getting heated up on the other side of the village. ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, wayne and company have seen people with some of the time with communities come today. and so seems like getting up and who have made an agreement with us, but you don't do anything from what they want to explain is that this is the kind.
2:36 pm
what does it have for this boys filling a bottle of water to send back with these that preventative bosses? so they can visually see the kind of water that come through and these people are the so we went to the mine next door to give them a chance to respond to allegations of pollution. and here this side of the story, we had permission to film in the underground mine weeks before we went. but when we got the data, you speak to us all at austin city. disappointing. when i load and help me call rich central india is home to some of the most bio diverse forest on the planet. so aside from local water and soil pollution extracting call, which is considered to be in national interest, also means destroying large tracts of old growth forests. even going to government
2:37 pm
estimates, 164000 heck of forest land have been lost to mining. since the 1950s, millions of indigenous people live in these forests, the russians call, and other natural resources displacing communities here on an unprecedented scale. and this has remained largely under reported. i saw the story play out in every village. i visited him some from the gaunt community had already been displeased from the ancestral lands. some from the tunnel community were about to be displeased and others believe that would come at some point. i mean, is it a known independent land rights activist who works to improve legal and institutional support for communities? which at the risk of using the land to mining we sat down for a chat about why the country is still investing in coal mining. the reason why the
2:38 pm
number of all my interests actually increased in the alarming rate of past few, because there's a massive open edition, but it's a metal demand for the box. but that's not an excuse. because again, i would see that that depends on alert of our consumption pattern of a whole, consumerism. so if you are not really ready to listen, the people who are actually suffered the people who are the victims, the people who are actually sacrificed for your protection. for, for getting 2040 to 70, like to sit in the big cities, we cannot say that some religious have to be live in the dock. so this modern responsibility to listen, all those people we contacted the cold ministry to address the allegations of the people we met in, goodbye. but they did not give us a date to be interviewed in the weeks before the publication of this piece.
2:39 pm
while we were still in the region, the community with the polluted water received some news, they wanted to share the community again, they haven't read enough for dinner tonight. the news the celebrated welcome. the extended to us as visitors wasn't stop contrast to the news. the village had john side wanted to share this area has just been surveyed, and we have been notified that it will become an open cost mine, which means that any day, now this community will be evicted from the forest. well, this is my motherland where i was born one so green. i remember the lippard line us birds snake format. we were so happy then some of the 31 families here,
2:40 pm
7, do not have entitlement deeds to prove they belong. here. the government is responsible for rehabilitating those width papers. why mining has displaced people around the world from germany to zimbabwe. the history of rehabilitation in india is especially poor. since 951 over 2500000 people have been displaced by mine and less than a quarter. what do you have up to up it's, i gotta go get the little do something. now the government is asking us to leave this. where would we go? we have worked on this land to make it for dial and sustain us. we don't want to be enemies, like we only want to save this land back here. i'm not talking about tele going up where i live in the morning, they lead me into the forest to show me why they are adamant about not leaving this
2:41 pm
place. the bundle is used tools, including bows and arrows to collect fruits from the florida. that's the main source of nutrition. as a kind of hugo, the dig out of the ground, they are largely a self sustaining community living off the forest. thank you. we are driving through the cold belt. we saw defunct minds everywhere. were extraction once boomed, but no, nothing remains, but blots on the landscape. was completely bad and they usually do villages that were hill before the mine came and set up about 22 years ago. and the villages have gone and the mine has shut down. and there's nothing left, you know, people for this new call. mine's normally have a lifespan of only a few decades. as the deeper you go,
2:42 pm
the less economically becomes to operate them. so new ones open, 100 silently shut down across the country. this entire land behind me would have once been expensive for this full of biodiversity and home to a number of indigenous communities. when you factor in the social and environmental cost call doesn't seem food cheap anymore. this is the question we need to ask ourselves, moving forward. how do we balance growth and the need for development with the help and rights of look, communities, and the environment. growth in the west was largely powered by fossil fuels. what if you want to avoid the most dial impacts of climate change, essentially for the communities we just saw, and for the climate as a whole, that be fine, scalable. we've done it is to quickly on next story our reporter contextualize the
2:43 pm
