ah, i'm anthony. how'd welcome to the program today summit bringing to get the leaders from the world's largest economies. the g 20 has kicked off in barley, indonesia, russia's bought a new crime, is in the spot by that this he is gathering, even though it's not officially. on the agenda, indonesian president, jacob widow has been welcoming the leaders russian foreign minister. so gay lover of is attending the summit in place of president vladimir putin. russia's coming for international criticism of its invasion, which is caused economic disruption and fears of an energy and food crisis in much of the world. a w se i should bureau chief joke matters is in at the g 20 summit in bali where the russian president is not. he og joker widow

tried in vain to get vladimir putin to attend. what the leaders of the g 20 nations need most to resolve in his absence. while the nation president started this or 1st summits day by arching, all leaders are represented here to help and stop the war in ukraine. an important message actually already got out ahead of this meeting or from a meeting of the chinese president and the american president, that there is a red line when it comes to the use or even the threat of use of atomic weapons. and that is something the german chancellor here also welcomed. it's an important message that has come out of bilateral meetings around this summit. and overall, i would say it is at the summit or from a ukrainian perspective that has already been a success to day on this 1st day, the ukranian from president an address leaders here directly and had

a quite detailed speech with several a list of demands for instance security assurances that he is expecting he ops for an establishment of a special tribunal and he wants to expand the grain export initiative. and he said, a 2 leaders here now is the time to stop this war. go a lot on the agenda. they what are some of the other key issues facing the latest i would say it economic recovery and so security are some of the key issues here. and i just talked to an expert on the sidelines of, of the summit, who said it getting out this message, which is interlinked, of course, with the war in ukraine getting out the message that this warm us stop is important . but it is also important to find some constructive way forward. now, how to resolve this conflict? for instance, when it comes to a grain deliveries from russia or a deal that is about to expire, where some nations have said, you know, let's,

let's make sure this goes on. but also when it comes to fertilizer, for instance, a quarter of the raw material for fertilizer is coming from russia. and fertilizer production around the world has, has ground to a standstill basically. so meetings here in particular bilateral meetings, on the sidelines of the summit, it is something that can help, for instance, or when you look at china, or when you look at india who are represented here, who can put pressure on russia. a lot at stake for every part of the world. what does this stump summit mean for indonesia, a country which is only just recently broken to foreign visitors after the pandemic? it's been an extremely difficult presidency here. i attended a number of t 20 ministerial meetings here in bali. and when you look at these meetings, they were largely overshadowed by the covet crisis. of course, many people on the sand with virtually the summit. but also when you look at the war in ukraine, which really overshadowed events. so getting a common declaration at ministerial meetings was always difficult. even on such

subjects like the environment or trait, it wasn't possible to get out a mutually agreeable community k. and so this will be something that the summit will, will also struggle with. on the other hand, one has to say that the indonesian president went through a whole marathon of bilateral meetings. and maybe one has this is how one has to measure the success of a summit like this one that you do get in difficult times leaders to talk to each other directly. they doubly as kale mattress at the g. 20 summit in bali. thanks so much. we'll ahead of the g 20 summit, u. s. president biden met with chinese leaders. she shouldn't ping in indonesia. one of the most pressing issues was china's aggressive claim to taiwan. both ladies highlighted the need to avoid conflict. after months of simmering tension, the leaders of china and the u. s. struck an optimistic tone in what president joe

reiterated washington's one china policy, which acknowledges beijing's claim to taiwan, but does not recognize its sovereignty over the island. but biden said there was no need to let tension spill over into a new cold war. i'm from for a clear that our policy or to or this is a clue course to lucius was all right after us. how speaker nancy pelosi visited taiwan in august. amazing, scrapped it's agreements with washington on tackling climate change. but following monday's meeting at the world's 2 biggest greenhouse gas emitters have re, committed to cooperate. biden said, u. s. secretary of state antony blinkin will soon visit china, vowing to avoid conflict and keep communication channels wide open. ah, a cranium president vladimir lensky has called deliberation of his on the beginning

haslam is draped, ukraine's national colors. so to it's cuba and residents, the moment of liberation still fresh on their minds. we just understood that there are no russian troops in the city, and samson is charged to pull the smiling and probably somebody in you 1000. and then, oh, when we return to me, we saw how the flag was the rising by all the people and we were, we were just crime. it was so it was so wonderful. meanwhile, the remnants of russian rule a foss, this appearing, i had a low billboards, no advertising, but this roger washington again the every where we've, they wanted to from 4th, like people in russia, but it didn't work. victory in house on has added momentum to ukraine and efforts to expel the invaders. but with russian forces just across the river and still

lodged in large parts of eastern ukraine. polanski and his commanders know that the war is far from over. and we asked correspondent ne connelly if this means harrison is now safe from russian attack. well, definitely it doesn't feel perfectly safe. you're coming from outside. you constantly hear very loud bang. some of those are minds being blown up, but also some of that is very definitely russian artillery coming from the other side of the new per river. the entirety of course on is basically, you're available to russian fire. there is no way that is safe, even from pretty short range weapon systems. but when you walk around streets and talk to people, they barely look up when they hear those bang. you see the kind of the outside of the journalist, the politicians coming from care today, all kind of looking knows that the sky in the local to just glue to their phones, hoping for a bit of mobile phone signal to contact the outside world to hear how their families are doing to catch up on news,

and they are now totally new to it. 8 months after the outpatient began, and most people, they say that youth russians are on the other side of the river. they don't believe that the russians can hold their positions and their comments the cranial me will send them packing within a few weeks. from hassan's news in other parts of the world now and democrat, katy hobbs has been elected governor of arizona getting republican foreman using carry like, like was endorsed by former president donald trump and back his discredited claims and fraud in the 2020 presidential election is why in our nations general assembly has passed a resolution calling on russia to pay reparations to ukraine. non bonding decision was supported by 90 for the assembly is 193 members. it states that russia must be held accountable for violations of international law in or against ukraine. l 6 is a dr. the your opinion is imposing you sanctions on iran, the mrs. target senior officials and some organizations you foreign ministers met

in brussels to discuss the sanctions. the in response to a rounds crackdown on anti government protests and its alleged supply of drones to russia. the chief of iran revolution regard and a company that makes drones among the targets. while the 300 people had been killed during the protests. it was by the death of a woman while in police custody. d. w corresponded terry schultz followed the foreign ministers discussions in brussels. she told us more about the e u sanctions on iraq continuing to support ukraine against russia's aggression. was the main issue on the foreign ministers agenda today. but there was also a lot of attention on iran, more than 30 individuals and organizations have now been placed on the sanctions list over 2 separate issues. the 1st is over the continuing repression of human rights. and the interior minister has now been put on the use black list because of

the, the brutal repression of demonstrators who filled the streets since the september death of masa omni, the young woman who was arrested for reportedly failing to cover her head in the appropriate way. according to ron's morality police, the squat of, of officers who arrested her are also now on that list. now the 2nd issue is over t, ron supply of drones to the russian government. and a high ranking military and intelligence official has now been blacklisted along with a drone making company. this is the 2nd round of sanctions that the e u has placed on iran over the supply of drones. and that brings up another issue that's drawing a lot of concern in brussels these days. and that is that iran is reportedly preparing to supply ballistic missiles to moscow. now you foreign policy chief, joseph burrell, has been on the phone to the regime multiple times in the last couple of weeks to urge to run, to change its mind on this to say that more sanctions will be brought into force immediately. if it's proven that such

a shipment takes place. now while all of these tensions are bubbling at a high point, the in you is also trying to make peace with iran over the nuclear deal. they very much want to keep this agreement alive. of course, after the u. s. pulled out in 2016, and this is going to be a hard sell now, because that would involve lifting sanctions on the regime at the same time as they're doing these other things that are drying more restrictions. and we're told that that's really not getting a lot of attention. now we're not, there's not a lot of appetite for that in either europe or the united states. and it remains to be seen whether t ron is even interested in continuing to discuss it. given the most recent developments. now state of least her schultz speaking to us from brussels. finally, we go to christmas island, where one of the animal kingdoms most amazing arising migrations is underway. millions of red crabs are swarming their way across the island as they hid to, to the coastal breeding grounds. the cross station spend most of the ag in their
