10:02 pm
a homemade gun open fire. ave was the country's longest serving prime minister known for his strong economic and defense policies. his murder has shocked japan where gun violence is rare. last year there was only one gun related death reported in the entire country. ah, the moment shin, so aren't they? we shot twice, a suspect man, handled to the ground. what appears to be a weapon. lying on the road near by. people ran to the age of japan's former prime minister as he lay seriously wounded. he was quickly transferred to a helicopter and flown to hospital. at this point, his condition was described as critical,
10:03 pm
but doctors were unable to save him. mister shins obey was taken into emergency care at 20 past 12. he was in a state of cardiac arrest. he was given intensive care, but unfortunately he passed away to day. at 3 minutes past 5, when he arrived, he had gunshot wounds on 2 parts of his body and was in a state of cardiac arrest, probably induced by damage to hearts unto the otter is the area in the city of nora, where this veteran politician had been giving an election campaign speech is now a crime scene. the assassination has shocked japan. a country wag gun violence is rare. images shaggy. no, this is a dastardly sam. barbaric oddity to knock out. it
10:04 pm
took place in the midst of an election. isn't a bunker regarding this is the basis of a democracy to stay and his absolutely unforgivable thing. i would like to use again, the harshest words to condemn this act. you know, he does most chin. so our bay was 1st elected prime minister of japan in 2006, making him at 52 the country, his youngest ever premier. oh, it proved short lived. a year later he quit following a string of party scandals. he was also suffering from health problems, but he wasn't gone for long. in 2012, he was back promising to revive japan's flagging economy. following years of deflation. abilene mixed there,
10:05 pm
he even put his own name on the plan up in nor makes drinking. ave was also hawkish on defense, expanding japan's military role after years of pacifism, that proved a controversial policy. and he failed to formally rewrite the country's pacifist constitution. he did though, bolster japan security alliance with the united states. ave was considered a strong leader on the world stage, but in 2020 he again resigned, citing poor health. so to get us politics though, was always in his blood right up until the end. oh, for reaction to today's assassination, i spoke to nancy snow. she's a former for bright scholar in japan. well, i actually live in japan. i retired early from cal state fullerton,
10:06 pm
and i've lived in japan off and on the last 10 years. so my entire fellowship era there has really coincided with the return of ave, in the 2nd term. and i've written extensively about ave, in his leadership sometimes critically, but never about the man as a leader on the global stage. he's been extraordinary. this is a terrible loss for japan and for the world, he had a personal style in dealing with other leaders from trump, to modi. to even working closer with g in the pre coven era of 2019 china and japan had closer relations. so this is a shock to the system to the national psyche of the japanese people. they do not expect this type of violence to happen internally and to this statesman,
10:07 pm
this representation of japan. he's really the biggest political leader for japan in this century. and it's about what will, who's legacy beaver? i mean he was a polarizing figure, but at the same time he demanded that japan move forward. well yes he was polarizing and, and that's why there were political protests at the time that he was trying to revise your update japan's peace constitution. he spoke his mind and now he had many, many supporters. and he had detractors as well. but notably, he really helped to put japan on the global stage. it was his marketing of foreign policy. the abbe nomics, the women nomics, the 3 arrows. it was all readily understood. he was on many national covers of
10:08 pm
magazine saying japan is back. he was able to get the tokyo olympics to japan, so i can't even gras yet. what a loss this is to the country. the legacy will continue to grow. frankly, he was just $67.00 born in 1954 and that's relatively young of him in japan year. so we're just coming to terms with this that we're in a state of morning and i will head back to japan very soon and meet with my friends and more with them. minutes we knew the addition to obey hugh wanted and he didn't succeed at this. but he wanted to have the constitution changed. he wanted japan to be able to be again, a military power in asia, and also to take responsibility to peacekeeping in the region. one of the chances
10:09 pm
of the constitution being changed after his assassination. well at this moment i think it's quite remote because you're not going to see any major change. the japanese people largely do not want that change, although they recognize that east asia, northeast asia, specifically as a very dangerous neighborhood. and so there has to be perhaps some changes gradually, but it won't happen anytime soon because we have to 1st come to terms with what is just happened and cause she'd, i'd like to add is from hiroshima he was talking about having a meeting with eminent person from across the globe to discuss the abolition of nuclear weapons show as much as there is a movement toward raising the security profile of japan. there is also this
10:10 pm
recognition that the piece brand for japan worldwide has really done. it's done it some good in terms of goodwill. many people want to come to japan because it's seen as such a piece on beauty. depends that was nancy snow speaking with me earlier. here is a quick look now at some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world. the contest to be the british prime minister is underway, boys. johnson announced his resignation on thursday after almost 60 impedes. quit his government following a string of political scandals. johnson plans to remain prime minister until the party select a new leader. and go was from a president. jose edwardo santos has died at the age of 79. once and independence fighter, he ruled the oil rich central african nation for almost 40 years. is tenure was marked by civil war and rampant corruption. he died in spain,
10:11 pm
where he was being treated following a prolonged illness. russia has vetoed a un security council resolution to extend a deliveries into rebel held areas of syria for another year. thousands of age trucks have passed through the bob out hawaii crossing into the it live region this year alone. russia proposed a rival resolution with a 6th month extension, but that also failed to pass. now, to the latest on the war in ukraine, russia, president putin has warned that his military campaign in the country is only just getting started. his warning comes as russia continues, it's offensive in the eastern province of don't yet. ukraine says at least 12 civilians have been killed there in the last 24 hours since the war began. he crane has faced unprecedented destruction. but russian president vladimir putin says his troops when just warming up, leticia shoot,
10:12 pm
you must lucian. we are hearing that they want to defeat us up william on the battlefield. what can i say is because we let them try museum the we have often heard the wes wants us to fight it into the last ukrainian if the threats a tragedy, the ukrainian people look, behold, but it looks like it's heading in that direction. more children. but everybody should know that largely speaking. sure, we haven't even yet started anything in earnest. despite that sinister statement for the moment, it's believed that russian troops are taking an operational pause after having captured the city of little chance earlier this week, and consolidating their grip on power. in ela hans region 2, but not everywhere in ukraine is seeing a lull in fighting. shelling continued in the dynette screech and overnight hitting several cities. but on the score of with little i called an ambulance because some
10:13 pm
one was killed. you right? what are we supposed to do? should you have the, how are we supposed to survive? you put muted in your put is no explanation in when you mom, i don't understand when there's no help. you could reform, nobody came to investigate. i really do not understand why i cannot leave my house . it's in ruins. it is like hurry patients warning that more of this is on its way. comes is just another blow to an already batted country . was he w, corresponded expires in the ukrainian capital. he told me how people have been reacting to putin's warning that this war has only just begun. i think the ukrainian leadership, brent is used to this kind of sabre rattling,
10:14 pm
let's remember putin was talking about the intimating the risk of nuclear war at the onset of the conflict there, there wasn't adviser to president lensky who made the only official comment that i said echoing putin's saving about western forces at work in ukraine saying there are no western forces or only russian troops here in ukraine. but as you talk to ordinary ukrainian says, i have done to day you here pretty much everybody, you know, rejecting putin's comments. one man said, look, he's talking to a domestic audience trying to show his power to the people at home and trying to show the western countries that they have to keep their hands off ukraine. one moment i talked to said, look, this is just plain diabolical. i referring to potent statement, another man of draft age said to me that all this could do was steal the resolve of the ukrainian fighters at the front line. and nick, you know that a brush appears to have eased off somewhat from it offensive in the don't boss ever since it captured the city of lizzie chunks. is that correct in? why is there?
10:15 pm
absolutely, and there have been statements to, you know, just recently from high command that they are having an operational pause and the reasons that are simple. you remember of course, at the beginning of the war, there was this pushed towards the capital. and these long columns of russian tanks and armored vehicles were decimated by anti tank weapons provided by weapon. countries with those battalion tactical groups left the area, they wit, regrouped, and conducted their operations in the east of the country, but they still have to be reconstituted and put back together. the gains the russians have made, have been made with artillery barrage is not fighting street. the street and house by house. they don't have the soldiers, they need organized in the way they need to actually conduct a proper military campaign. they're just operating as sort of scorched earth policy . so yeah, they are on the offensive, but they have to get their manpower organized to really do anything consequential dw expired with the latest to night keith's in ukraine. nick, as always,
10:16 pm
thank you. oh, meanwhile, russia has taken control of the ukrainian city of hair sewn last month, the occupying administration. they are announced plans to hold a referendum on joining russia, though no date has been specified, but many of the cities residence will not be around to vote. tens of thousands have reportedly left since the city was captured, access to the area is all but impossible for western journalists, which is why he w correspondent, nick connelly contacted to the city's residence to hear from them about life under russian occupation. not even decision at the beginning, we all thought the occupation would be over in a week. it was only a few months in that we finally understood that the russians were here to stay. it looks very similar to what it. ready was in 1985 for as i was a little were here and on a red flags her hanging and. ready look very saw,
10:17 pm
your lady is all my friends have left with the younger generation is gone. only the pensioners have stayed here. there's so many people in new york mountain. now these people are not able to get the money that they have on their gums. a lot of people are trying to get in there. awesome. so boston 1000 rouble did this a b q to get the rush. so i think that they give this to the girls and her uncle rommel my condition. there are some i only heard about the plans for a referendum to join russia from the ukrainian press. with that no one's talking about it here. he who hm. it also why and daily and on and before it got fully milder vehicles by in fact. so there are many places where, where ocoee jewelry dorothy is and of course you don't hear about it or manageable
10:18 pm
working left. i see also many authors on the seeds on facebook telling the other person is missing. when, when the rations came on, we were expecting things would be as bad as in mary. you, paul? mary, look know. we were scared to even look up the window. it was sheer panic was saying that the girl was there either year to damage the fact that we can leave the house and buy food. we seems like a miracle alexis, or is a baby girl was you'll is tried to guess ish if the russians are shooting all on the ukrainians covering russians with was selling. if nothing changes, i'll also end up leaving only my parents and my grandma that are keeping me here for now. and sure,
10:19 pm
did the graham delivery day with how and when and we got an idea for it to become a marathon rather than it's been foreign ministers of the g. 20 developed in emerging economies have met in bali, indonesia for a summit, overshadowed by the war in ukraine, and an international food an energy crisis. summit hosting denisia has urged an end to the war in ukraine. tensions ran high at the meeting with critics of moscow's invasion, confronting russia's top diplomat surgery lab, rob that you see right here prompted leverage to walk out of. busy the meeting earlier i spoke to simon kush it professor of international security at zeppelin university, and i asked him what he made of lab rods behavior at the g 20 so well it's, it's pretty clear that russia has isolated itself by just having the rush 40 minutes
10:20 pm
to walk out the door without even listening to the counter arguments off the other side. i think we have a do situation now, not just within the g 20, within the world at large that on the one hand, we have a very united front against the grain. the world is very nice against for ending this war and went vote on that has clearly shown that on the other hand, the world is clearly divided on how to, how to end the conflict. especially on the issue of sanctions and has been again, become very clear at the g 20 some of that. there are some, a lot of countries, china, brazil, india, they're still willing to talk to russia and still willing to engage with russia on certain issues. and that said, what do you make vin of the us call for russia to be excluded from the g 20? do you think that that is going to get much traction, especially after what we saw? you know, with surgery leverage at the meeting?
10:21 pm
i'm not sure how much traction such a decision such a move could actually have because rushes as clearly. not will. it certainly not being impressed by that. and i'm not even sure if it really summit energy 20 form is actually the right for him to deal with these issues that you 24 was actually invented more at to deal with financial and economic questions. and konami can financial corporation questions before and peace. so much more the domain of the un security council, and so i'm not sure how much leverage the 2 g 20 summit can actually have here, especially given the harden stance and position on both sides, which is seen some do you think possibly though, that it could actually serve western interest b, because with russia they're having representation at the g 20 it is
10:22 pm
forced to be confronted with all of the criticism and this united front against it when it comes to the board. and you cray well, as we're seen, russia is clearly willing to evade that computation. and just simply walk out the room. it's, it's, it, to me, it's very is, it's amazing how, how easy it, this seems for russia just simply, yeah, just stick of the head in the sand and just not listen to any good criticism that's out there. and that will make it extremely difficult to find a diplomatic solution on the conflict in the current worn ukraine. and it is really bad news for you trainings and also the world at large because there seems to be no quick end to this conflict. and we just ask before we run out of time, the foreign minister of indonesia called for an end to the war, urging a negotiated. and how suited is indonesia? host of the g 20 summit to be a mediator?
10:23 pm
i think it should be commended for offering that role to mediate between the coffee parties. and there's certainly potentially certainly try to do that. but at this point, and we've seen this very clearly at the summit. again, there simply isn't anything to mediate if people don't even talk to each other and not even listen to each other as we've seen in g 20 summit, no one can be get anything at this point. and so indonesia roles and mediator is very limited at this point. we'll have to see how things develop until the g. 20 summit in november when the head of states and prime ministers will actually meet on it for now. that meeting, median role is very limited. indeed, professor simon, kosher we appreciate your time and your insights tonight. thank you. thank you. taiwan to ability to defend itself against china. the country's armed forces are mostly equipped by the united states,
