of the landscape, came to the liberated city, to deliver a message of hope and defiance till it was not very pleasant. when i saw the number of destroyed houses, the number of destroyed cafes, this is what the russian federation has done to our country. it shone the whole world that it can kill, but all of us are armed forces, our national guard, our intelligence services, have shown that it is impossible to kill ukraine. the retreating russians are close, so the landscape visit is dangerous. it isn't the 1st time the wartime leader has ignored personal risk to lift the nation's spirits. ah, 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 something has changed over 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 crying, it was, so it was so wonderful. meanwhile, the remnants of russian rule, a foss disappearing. i had a low billboard, no advertising, but this russia, again, the employee with they wanted to conform like people in russia, but it didn't work. victory in house on has added momentum to create an effort to expel the invaders. but with russian forces just across the river and still lodged in large parts of eastern ukraine to landscape. his commanders know that the war is far from over. well, we asked our correspondent in ukraine, a conley,

if this means headphone is now safe from russian attack. well, definitely doesn't feel particularly safe coming from outside. you caught me here, 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 deeper river. the entirety of gets on is basically, you're available to russian fire. there is no where that is safe, even from pretty short range weapon systems. but when you walk around street, you talk to people, they barely look up when they hear those bangs, you see the kind of the outside of the journalist, the politicians coming from care of today, all can 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, most people, they say the youth russians on the other side of the river. they don't believe that the russians can hold their positions and their commits the cranial me will send them packing. within a few weeks. tito is near conley,

they're speaking to us earlier? well, as we know at the russian or the ukranian president of the avalon mayor zalinski, i spoke to the g 20 summit earlier and dw se asia bureau chief garrick matters is at the g. 20 summit in body and joins us now. gail, good, great to see you. so we know that yoko we, dodo battled hard to get vladimir putin to attend, but he's actually not there, as we know now. can the other leaders make much progress in his absence? what looks like there was a couple of positive signals coming from that 1st summit de here of the g 20 meeting in ballier. key point is that apparently a joint draft communicate has been signed, and part of that communicate reads that most members a strongly condemned the war in ukraine. it then goes on to say, and there were other fuse in the room as well. and that the g 20 is not the forum a to resolve security issues. but the key message here is that there is

a condemnation and that is really a concession that has been made on. because earlier in ministerial meetings, i attended a here in bali and that wasn't possible to get a condemnation off that war. on a joint statement, i was joined declaration where russia is parked. there were also other positive signals that, for instance, a red line is drawn when it comes to nuclear threats or the use of nuclear weapons in that area. and that was something that a, particularly of the ukrainian a president who addressed liter sir in a video speech. a welcome very much actually do tell us a little bit more about what the ukranian president had to say. oh, he had a really a number of things, a very detailed speech. there are trial, attend a 10 point apiece, formula that he presented. oh, which i talked about, that russia must reaffirm that the territorial integrity of ukraine. them. he

addressed leaders directly that ye 20 leaders here and said now is the time to stop this destructive war. there is also talk about establishment of a special piece, dr. beautiful and security assurances that he would like to see so, so a very, a detailed speech and the president of indonesia was hosting the street 20 really opened this 1st summit day to day with a arching member states a help and stop this war. go good. tell us some of the other key issues facing the leaders off is leah economic recovery after a pandemic thus had at his has hit up the the part of f of asia, particularly hard is top of the agenda. it's really at the core of what a indonesia is hoping to achieve here. and but also food security is, is another example that is really gruel. and that is also interesting at if you look at this draft communicate and that there is the hope that

a deal to export grains from ukraine can be extend it because it was about to run out of that as part of the communique. and then there's been several, a meetings set up where one hopes that a d, the countries that are leaning more towards russia, for instance, india or china will use their leverage to put some pressure on russia. for instance, when it comes to the provision of fertilizer, or rather the, the parts that are used to make fertilizer, one 4th of, of these elements come from russia. and at the moment the fertilizer production world wise at a standstill. so the hope is that with constructive single steps, one can really make a difference with this g 20 meeting here. thanks gal dw. gov matters at the g 20 summit embody right, well let's take a look at some news from other parts of the world. democrat, katy hobbs has been elected governor of arizona beating referral republican former

foreign ministers discussions in brussels. and she told us more about the sanctions on iraq continuing to support ukraine against russia's aggression was the main issue on the foreign ministers agenda as a day. 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 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 he don't use, terry shows they're speaking to us from brussels and you are up to date. you're watching dw news from berlin. business news with christy pots, and as of next i'll be back again at the top. the next are take are mm ah ah ah natural spectacle in an improved world. ah, the meeting of the lou will.
