a memory i press lillian dash belly head pisca g. wyndham, most treasured trophy in foot, but for the 3rd time in 1970 and those glittering brides. he's remembered as a clear who inspired millions and present is honoring it's heated with coin yet bill. and there's a feeling of sadness for all brazilians. paley will be missed for what he represented to the world and to us who love soccer. oh, the football community. it's also been its respect. oh, well, a lot. he was a legend of our sport, one of the pioneers, when it comes to world class personalities, he was the reference for a whole generation. everybody wanted to be pele. yesterday billy to sports governing, body, fi, fi, york. it flags is for ivan with every one who loves

football because of what he did for football because he wanted it for getting emotions towards those who know football. i found a felony for pelley in india, and he's remembered hearing pakistan in an area known as many breath either there was ever since i can remember, i've heard pallet's name on the streets of karachi. whenever a t one a football tournament, they would challenge pele while lifting the trophy in argentina, the comparison between madonna and billy was a thought of friction between life and fat lip. but a fight for now that you needed. i was still very little, but i recall my father's words know that my father saw him play and he was amazed

the same way, i talked about mariah doner. and he talked to me about paley in their liability. he will always be taking 5th newspaper in brazil and for millions, he will always be the greatest player of all dine. football journalist at 10 vickery in rio de janeiro told me more about pallet's legacy. well, you keep using the word king. remember, this is a poor black kid born just 52 years after brazil as abolished slavery. who leaves the scene as the king of the global gang. ah, as a 9 year old child, he sees his dad crying, and he listens on the radio to brazil losing the world cup final of 1950. and the 9 year old pele promises his father is going to arrange that fast forward when he is brazil. 13, well caps pele has won 3 well cups. brazil are associated as the home of the beautiful game as the winners as the country that everyone wants to be for

a month every 4 years. and the world cup is established as a made for t. v joins events that makes us all once a down tools for a month, every 4 years. all of this is the house that pal i built. and where did that name come from? because it wasn't a name he was born. no edged. and he's actually in tribute, so thomas edison because the little village where he was born, his birth coincided with the introduction of electricity. the, the names are very long in brazil. these portugal, portuguese names edson orientation i, samantha, it's normal to have little nicknames, even he wasn't sure exactly where pele came from. the one thing he was sure of as a kid is that he didn't like it. he would fight his schoolmates if they referred to him as pele. he ended up loving it, those 4 letters, more identifiable than any other human being in the world. and we saw in the report that to is last. it had quite an impact on the country. was this a purely sensitive census? our 1st woke up victory that became such

a huge figure. well remember he was only 17 when he won the world cup for the 1st time. it was the 1st time brazil had ever want it. and there was a book brought out that year saying in 1958 the year that should never end. while pele was only getting started, plenty more for him to do and for him to achieve. and he is by far the greatest diplomat that brazil has ever produced. it's impossible, i think, to put in a, into a european context just that the, at the multiplicity of things that he means to the country. not just as a sports figure, but the country is now immensely proud of the fact that all over the world, people are talking about polite. he's either, he's a huge source of pride to the nation, even if the vast majority are far too young to have any memories of him as a player. so 3 days of national morning what, what do we know of the funeral? it's being slowed down a little bit by the fact that brazil inaugurated new presidents on sunday. so from

monday morning he will lie in states or india that they sent a circle of the field there at st asa, port city an hour down the road from the metropolis of san palo. that will be open to the public. so anyone with deep pockets who really wants to go there? yeah, mike, your booking gets a sense us for monday to tuesday morning after that a procession through the streets of sans us, which will pass the house. where is mother at the age of a 100 is still alive before a simple private service for the family. and he'll be buried in a vertical cemetery. a cemetery which is in the guinness book of records, which gives him a view over that stadium of santos, that he graced for so many years. and pal, i said, it's also a place that inspires peace and tranquillity, the last resting place. for an extraordinary life. i so tim vickery in rio de janeiro, you the vladimir pose, his call for closer military cooperation with china. the russian president was speaking during a video summit where the chinese leader,

as usual peng version has not condemn the war in ukraine. it is also not provided russia with any direct support. moscow's latest air strikes are left at most of ukraine without power. laser missouri, with a more attacks from russia on ukrainian cities round after round of drawings and cruise missiles. even though ukraine's air defenses are largely holding up falling debris from the intercepted rockets still causes significant damage. as this woman and keith looks on in her children's bedroom glass everywhere. vladimir putin held talks with his chinese counterpart. the video coal happened to take place on the $100.00 anniversary of the founding of the soviet union. its demise is something putin bitterly regrets. together, he and shooting pin want to stand up to pressure from the waist. and putin, at least once closer, military cooperation with beijing were a special place in russian chinese relations is occupied by military and technical

cooperation. this contributes to the security of our countries. we aim to strengthen cooperation between the armed forces of russia and china. get in a difficult international situation. we are ready to build up strategic cooperation with russia. provide each other with development opportunities and be a global partners for the benefit of our peoples. china's official stance on putin's war is being quite objective and fair. she told person that position isn't changing, and that the road to pace would not be smooth. putin cordially his dea, a friend with, and he invited him to moscow early next year. you was or very me by then ukraine's army is hoping for some key strategic gains according to military sources. they're currently advancing on the russian occupied town of camina in the low hands, creegan shamar and his mom. if we liberate crimean,

i will stop the russian army supply route in rubbish, no severity net, scandalous. he chanced we could then break through their defenses, remain or is not a big city, but it is an important strategic point or what level of you. if it's re taken, the area could serve as an important deployment area for the recapture of other areas in ukraine's east. hey, look at more headlines. a small store is making headlines around the world. us lawmakers are really 6 years of donald trump's tax returns. the former president fought for years to keep them secret documents show. he paid only $750.00 in federal income taxes for 2 of those years and nothing at all in 2020, and not information that controversial social media personality and former professional kickboxer. andrew tate has been arrested in romania on charges of human trafficking and right in his brother, tristan have been under criminal investigation since april. the self described
