8:05 pm
antonio gutierrez, was hearing key from the ukrainian capital, was in a shell that jess artie was visiting now at world. leaders are gathered in germany for the g 7 and again, rush, i is sewing it, it's muscles or so to so to speak. it's nothing unusual to have the layers, the earth twice, that it is a bit more unusual to see the capital are being being hit. the weight was yesterday several me size fell here and key on the residential area. and of course, dis, weedy damper and the mood here, you know, there was a kind of stance off earth was the full sense of safety over 2 weeks out. if the situation has been relatively quiet in the capital and death has drastically changed since the strike yesterday, i was gonna ask you about the move a mood in the in cave. after those strikes, do you think it's likely, i mean, as you said, you know, i was there as well. recently, people tend to ignore those air raid sirens. do you think these, this wrapping up of taxes as an individual missile attacks will,
8:06 pm
will mean that people do take more care when it comes to the air? right, science i would have thought so, but having a be there also for a few weeks. i'm not here so so that they don't really that people who don't really observe those err siren alara's. they would hear them, they would look out their phone up at the warning up and then they would just get on with their lives. of course, yesterday the city was easily quiet or after or after to o'clock in the early hours of sunday morning, but mostly people just get on or with their loved to day. for example, we got 2 such alarms and are those 2 times i was driving or with my team in a car, and i could see people around just barely noticing this was happening. so if anything it makes them and clear about the situation, you know, it makes them a bit more resolved to continue fighting russian choose but saved. we don't react to the sr n's as much as they would have end of february. i am
8:07 pm
a thank you very much, and then update a manual chance for us in teams. now world leaders meeting here in germany have promised to support ukraine for as long as it takes presidents lensky address the summit of the g 7 group of leading economies in bavaria speaking by video link, he called for tougher sanctions against russia and renewed his play for more advanced weapons to fight a war. the g 7 nations stressing their message of unity in the face of russian aggression. german chancellor shalt says the russian invasion of ukraine has changed the global landscape but not fractured international unity. these are creek and t for t 4 inch this war is a deep, steep cart and international relations. early on, i very consciously called russia's attack on ukraine, a turning point that's under of all the rules, all the agreements that we made with each other about how states should cooperate, have been broken by this war. especially the understanding that borders should not
8:08 pm
be moved by for some about from stop is a dumped to bottom board. and as the g 7 must be 1st, we are united in the assessment that this is about very long lasting changes. that's because that will continue to shape international relations for a very, very long time and on did, did the internet to non bits you offer. there's a long, it's had craig and i spoke to our political correspond benjamin alvarez gruber, his in elma. he has more on the statement from the german chancellor that something that the german chancellor has been repeating when the situation changes. we have to change to and you king was on the topic of the agenda today. he also said that there's no going back to russia to the context that they had before russia's invasion of ukraine. and that's what they trying to sent this sign of unity with this a long communicate that the g 7 leaders published today saying that they will continue supporting ukraine indefinitely when it comes to military support many
8:09 pm
terry and support diplomatic support as well. and one of the big challenges for the chance less host of this meeting is not just getting the d 7 behind him, but also the other leaders that he invited among them indian prime minister and are andra more di, senegal, south africa, countries that have abstained from a criticizing from condemning russia's war during a meeting of the un general assembly in march of this year. so getting them on board as well. he described this countries that he invited as the democracies of the future. and he and the west want to offer them an opportunity and also no tentative to of if they could get to russia. so them also getting them on the side of the 70 condemning rushes, war and supporting openly supporting ukraine indefinitely as well. and tell us a bit more about that video conference between the g 7 ladies and the accounting president, gloria zalinski. it happened to day morning with it. this
8:10 pm
