for only green washing after all, there are billions to be made. our to push document tree, deep sea greed starts to date on d, w. the . this is the, the news line from berlin, ukrainian presidential. it appears the landscape arrives in japan to join g 7 leaders of the 2nd day of their summit, where the u. s. has promised to help ukraine get american fighter jets. the ones people also get a chance to meet with other heads of stay to remain neutral on russia's invasion.

also coming up serious, bashar al assad returns to the international stage as the error of league. welcome send back into the fold after 12 years of isolation. like the western nations are not ready to forget the brutality of serious air of spring pressed down an ongoing civil war. plus tens of thousands of people are evacuated as italy, struggles with its worst floods in a century. look at the latest from our correspondence. the mariana isn't staying, it's good to have you with us. you're creating presidents, let them use the lens game has arrived in japan to attend to the jew 7 summit. it touched down at hiroshima, after a short stop over, and saudi arabia where he addressed the arab league. soleski is expected to seek further support for his country's defense effort against russia. this comes as

a us says, it will allow its western allies to supply ukraine with training and a possible delivery of fighter jets, including american made essex teams seen as a significant boost for kids. the w as chief international editor richard walker, is covering the g 7 meeting and her rushman for us, and he joins us now for the latest. so richard, we understands the landscape just landed in hiroshima how significant is the ukrainian leaders appearance in person at the g 7 summit. and what does he hoping to achieve there? yeah, well very at a, it totally is very significant of and if the, the reaction of the general is here in the media sense and they rush them is anything to go by. i mean, the, everyone was packed around various screens showing depends international bro costa and h k. wells of the landing. so lensky as it happened. and you had people really packed

around kind of filming, they did this on the tv screens here happening live. we didn't see that for, for any of the other leaders to the same extent as they arrived here. so, so, so let's keep kind of the out shining, or the actual members of the g 7 in the kind of drama of his arrival here. obviously coming from the arab league summit and, and i think it really is quite a powerful statement of a new phase of so let's keep engagement with the outside world, meeting with the arab league, not necessarily natural friends. and then coming to the g 7, which has been a long standing supporter of the ukraine, a war effort. but this as a place where he can make outreach to countries like india to countries like brazil, which have been much more cautious in that approach to this conflict. the brazilians raising questions about whether russia had some legitimacy and was it a direct remotely having a long standing there? the indian side have a longstanding relationship with russia and trying to be neutral so far. so lensky

now has a chance for face time with these people to get his message across to them and hoping to move the needle somewhere in that positions. so one thing that should be good news for the cranial leader is this indication by the u. s. it would not stand in the way of deliveries of these advance finer jazz the f sixteens. but it also announced further sanctions on russia. can you tell us about that richard? yeah, so i mean on the maybe just to quickly take the fight to jets 1st of all. so the, the us is saying that it is going to be support efforts to to get ukranian. pilots trained to flight the 16. so process that, that's like you to take some months and then that it will also support efforts to transfer a 16 planes to ukraine when that training program is complete. so probably looking at a few months that with this has been one of the few frames biggest us in recent months . i mean, remember that the various stages during the course of this world where the pregnancy

has said we need this weapon, there's been some hesitancy on the side of his partners and then ultimately depart this go along with it. well, we seem to be kind of moving through that process now in the case of a fighter planes, you crating and saying that that's very important in terms of trying to restore some, some dominance of the sky. so if you train and then in terms of sections what i think the best word here would be sort of tightening the screws to the apartments. that the 2nd part is a trying to correct down on contravention. trying to stop a efforts to kind of go around the sanctions regime that already exists. of the us for instance, announcing that it's targeting a number of companies including some chinese companies. but it says, a sort of helping russia by the back door during the course of this war. and the overall message from the g 7 a to the ukranian said that they have with them as long as this will take. and they're going to tighten the screws of with russia whenever it realizes that some of those screws might be coming loose. that was our chief international editor,

richard walker, reporting from the g 7 summit in hiroshima, japan richard. thank you so much. i as well as we mentioned before arriving in japan blood mares landscape paid a visit to the era bleak summit. and jetta and his 1st trip to the middle east and the russians invasion, ukraine's president accused. some of the regions leaders of turning a blind item moscow's aggression arab nations have remained largely neutral over the war and ukraine. many of them maintain close ties to russia, including the syrian president, bashar al assad, was the landscape reminded air leaders that ukraine's own muslim minority had been effected by the war, starting with russia's illegal annexation of the crime in peninsula back in 2014. your granules has never shows in the war. our thrills didn't go to other lands. we do not engage in unexcused
