the good news to us that's why we listen to their stories reporter every weekend on dw, the, there's this dw news line from bullet nato late as speed up ukraine's membership bit. allies reaffirmed that ukraine will become a member of the add ons, but not just yet. at the nato summit in vilnius ukraine,

the mon security guaranteed guarantees. while if waiting. also coming off the united states gripped by extreme weather on president biden because of the state of emergency and parts of the northeast as 2 months worth of rain fall in just 2 days law. so you lawmakers have proven, and the patient's plan to turn to practice of land into for it to help defend against the i'm good. how about as well come to the program? you christ, presidents allow them is a landscape, says he has confidence to crime will become a natal member officer. the war ends by leaders of the alliance failed to fix it. the timeline for his country to join. if you're going along side native cvn, stalking back at the groups, annual summit in vilnius,

so that's good says ukraine was closer to the alliance. then as a be full members agreed to simplify your cranes off to membership and holding the 1st evan nature ukraine's council savanski had hope so. when a firm commitments to join nato, about stopping it said, it was now more important to provide you crying with enough weapons to win the war against russia. the wild rush sizable nato, again offering you cried. anything saying security guarantees would infringe on it's security. savanski said he was grateful for the steps nato has taken today from action plan on its way to night to i would like to have a success on this summit for everyone, for our soldiers forever, citizens, for our children, for everyone. and particularly the security guarantees that are so important for the people. the security guarantees for ukraine on our way to native noting state

of native but as security guarantees on our way to integration and to die. these guarantees could be confirmed by the g 7 countries. and if this will happen and we'll be working on that, this will surely become a very important step to watch and specific success. we can state that the results of the summits are good, but should we receive an invitation, they would be set the optimum was here and that's i joined a press conference and they just like attorney general, you installed back, announced a 3 pop packaged easy ukraine's bid to become and they told me that ukraine is not closer tonight. so than ever before. allies reaffirmed that ukraine will become a member of the add ons and agreed to remove the requirement for a membership back some time. this will change ukraine's membership

off from a 2 step process to one step process. and we will issue an invitation for ukraine to join nato. when all of us agree that conditions are met. this is a strong united message from allies on your part to nate to membership . today, we meet as equals. are look forward to the day. we need us allies installed next week, and then for more of this, let's bring in the w as i sign the phone number and who is at that data summit in vilnius, i'm dw, so crime corresponded nick connelly for the actions from keith. let's start with you. and sandra, what stood out for you in this joint statement that joint press conference, bus, talking back, incidents. i think what's a struck me most was the fact that both of them stalls and back ends and landscape

. we're focusing on the positive to doing the press conference. we know that the presidency lensky was disappointed about the outcome initially because he was appointed that ukraine was not granted a timeline for an invitation for joining the alliance. but during the press conference, he emphasized that he thinks that the results of this assignment were positive were good. and he described to this new body that was established here. then you need to ukraine council as an instrument of integration. stressing again and again that decisions made here in building use are bringing ukraine closer to ne, till, and that is of course, what it's done to 1000 back. also stress to and he's remarks emphasizing that elyse are going to continue. there are military support for ukraine. there is,

for instance, a multi your program of military assistance that ukraine will be granted and they go over to you do cry and had help for a lot more formal invitation to join nato. for example, how does appointed, are you finance? well certainly that has been a lot of anger, disappointment, confusion in the ukrainian press. no one was expecting a to membership while this was active, but they certainly were expecting some kind of time table and looks people have said this doesn't actually look that much different. so the kind of goal was that ukraine receive back in 20 o a to be bucharest, summit of nato. they say at the membership action plan that kind of previous list of homework to join nature has gone, but instead there's now 2 of conditions needing to be met. we've had ukraine's on mr. mitchell, columbus saying, no one knows what those conditions off. it's in

a way, it's even more confusing and even less clear. what exactly are you crying needs to do. and there's a real sense here in ukraine, but rather than escalating thanksgiving ukraine, a direct kind of clear perspectives. and nature would actually 2 lines in the sign to make clear to russia that ukraine is heading west and there is no points. continuing this one, no point trying to destabilize ukraine. so there's a real sense if this is an opportunity, missed by the west to pricing, make it clear that this is not going to go most goes way. it's not all the nato member stays, including the bolted countries with some of the host and this away. and yet as well, they do want to clear the timeline for your crazy accession. how divided is the alliance on this issue? well i think it's really fair to say that there are divisions with the india lions as to just that the baltic states and poland for instance. they would have wanted to have a stronger language in the final communicate that they would have wanted to have

a 2 year old perspective for nato membership for need. so for the alliance of ukraine, and there are, however, other nato countries, among them, uh the us and jeremy that has been having a much cautious approach and india. and we have to stress that all the allies needs to be on the same page. they need to you in a new mislead, agree on the final tax of that to us, to compromise that they were able to come up with now on a from ukrainian perspective, is there a feeling that the landscapes would turn it to ukraine? totally empty handed. i will say that he's trying to now focus on the positives of, to pretty open, quite emotional post on social media, stay what he called, the whole thing upset and way. he kind of made no secret of his anger disappointment. i think he thought he was going to billing us to get something totally different. he's now focusing and trying to underline school and you from

the weapons that you crane has got germany has promised more american built patriot emptiness onto aircraft systems. there's 2 of more munitions from the u. k. end of the supplies? well, the problem is that stuff is increasing needed now during ukraine, somewhere counter offensive in the south of the country against the russian army. i think the kind of big thing is still, we still haven't heard about what's the outcome of the person meeting with respect to between him and biden. i think there's real fear here in ukraine, but the us, the ministrations, most scared of russia going out of control being destabilized by ukraine being too successful in battlefield. and that they all kind of taking their eyes off of the kind of aim of ukraine. we're gaining who it's territory, think there's a real, got a little be effort going. then there's going to be a real attention hearing to have to any kind of wording we get about what happens there. and a renewed commitment from the us to back ukraine and ukraine's to mom's to basically fight as long as it takes to it,

re gainesville controlled with turkey. but it's definitely a disappointment, and there's no real spin would totally distract from the fact that this is a lot less than zalinski was how things get to w correspondence. i left some of phenomena in vilnius and it's connolly n keeps. thank you. and the northern hemisphere, some i'm has brought extreme weather to many countries and the united states has not been exempt presidential by and has declared a state of emergency as some of the north east east regions sees the west flooding in nearly a century. this is not the legs are not covered by 2 months of rain in just 2 days or several communities like this, including the stage capital on pele moon, by the relentless deluge. more than 30 state varied so close as the war to spread. this railroad even had the ground swept away from underneath it. a video shot by

vermont state police shows flood waters pulling over a diamond the queen she river. another, walked away, the connecticut river slower and to 4 meters above its usual level. the frog levels now surpassed active. how can i read in 2011? marine had about 12 hour duration of rain and then it was of sun came up, everyone went out, we were able to assess the damage. everything was receding, and we went back towards the recovery phase. this is different. we've had like 48 hours of steady rain, of the same intent spring that we saw during irene to 4 times. the amount of rain respond as it performed more than $100.00 rescue. so file with of a teams being floating in from further afield. police urged people to stay at home

unless they have a risk, in which case they were told to evacuate. that have been, thankfully no reported casualties thus far. and while the writings have now combed its services, yes. and as a reminder, that's how wells is changing fast. we have some breaking news at this uh the you, parliament has just boston and vicious, little to tackle climate change, restore biodiversity school, the nature of restoration, little with james, to restore 20 percent of land and sea to its natural state by 2030 big farms attempted to block the bill, boston small farmer, supported as he doesn't look at what it may mean for farmers. and the time is when it comes into effect. on by no means kansas market, garden farm and east germany. the focus lies on healthy soil. here fruit trees and various crops grow side by side. there's always one bed,

one bath and the next path. and in between always a little pathway. and it's not a big plot of coin or what, whatever. you can imagine that you see uh you know, a landscapes. it's some of this bio diversity that the european commission wants to gear towards on bigger farms as part of a bill to stop ecosystem collapse. it's proposal for the nature of eastern ration law plants to rehabilitate 20 percent of the blocks land and sea areas by 2030. and that includes agricultural lands which are often degraded. the bill would impose targets on its members states to re what people, it's huge, carbon sinks that are sometimes drained for agricultural activities. it would also set goals to diversify. landscape futures promote sustainable soil use and increase pollinators. and farm land. birds front says he would welcome such targets, but he sees why would be hard for big farms to implement them. we've done a deal with all the law on our own,

and it wasn't the challenge. and as i mentioned to do this 10 fold, one or another scale like it's, it's, it's, it's a job that doesn't give you right away something back here. it's largest farmer associations have protests at the restoration law. they claim that it would reduce land for agricultural activity and threaten food supplies. but 6000 scientists to find an open letter at the climate change and the lots is by diversity or the real threats to food security. the german farmers association also says the bill relies on too many bands and doesn't offer enough support on cold parts even call pets in nature conservation. it means your language for them to measure audience and things like because we have a clinic restrictions that have to be compensated farmer, confused as the europe and commission says that there are various funds to help farmers transition to more sustainable farming. and that it is crucial does happen . now they use green policy to front sentiments. so set the rejecting the

commission as a proposal would put the blocks entire green agenda risk. according to him, there's simply no time to draft a new bill to restore ecosystems like these people into behind me for funds that would be a welcome change. if the area surrounding his farm were restored, this would help his crops grow even better. that's it from me as a new steam of fun. i'll have an update for you at the top of the all i've got out of the office in berlin from me. the whole tv news team here. thanks for watching the interest of the global economy. o l d w business be here's a closer look at the project. to analyze the flight for market dominance,

get a step with d w. business beyond the city has to well runs and internet and technology company in rwanda. today, the 32 year old from friends is on her way to an appointment with her team. we're going to case it to you please. she employs around 20 people at her start up. when she 1st traveled to bewanda in 2018, she knew very little about the country. but she was very impressed by the cleanliness of it. the streets. all right and the hood. yeah. they sometimes for fun i look for litter on the streets. you know 57, but they never find any. it's so clean. notice the single piece of paper

with a spotless streets, perfectly manicured, green spaces and inviting parks. cigale has repeatedly been named the cleanest city in africa by the united nations. everywhere you look, the women and men are to keeping the city clean, removing waves, and even cleaning the roof of the shopping mall. it's a deliberate campaign to attract foreign investment. the definitive body of the clean, the streets are assigned to the discipline where you can disappear. especially that's important to me because i'm looking to recruit people here is of lucky discipline is capital. and then it was definitely a factor in choosing lawanda, schwab all palm one. this discipline has had an impressive effect on one

does development. the country has come a long way. lawanda is in central africa in the great lakes region. a country that has seen one of the coolest genocides in history. in 1994 who, 2 ethnic extremist mass occurred the tootsie minority. the massacre lasted for months and claims nearly 800000 lives. the country was left devastated. 3 decades later, this new rolanda is almost unrecognizable with economic growth of over 10 percent in 2021. it's made an extraordinary recovery. today it's one of the cleanest and safest countries in africa. or not really or the we're in the hollywood of key golden rule. one that has not only become an attractive destination for entrepreneurs, but also tourist with boutique luxury hotels,

brand taking landscapes and mountain gorillas. behind this impressive revival is paul academy, president of rwanda and former rebel leader in just a few years. he managed to bring his people back together and rebuild the country. now he wants to put rwanda on the world stage, but at what cost? kick ami was re elected for the 3rd time in 2017, with over 98 percent of the vote. he faces little opposition and independent journalists who dare to speak out. risk arrest, t o u. any surprising when our research is met with constant scrutiny from authorities, you ask a lot of questions were officers when we uncovered did always fit the image of an economic miracle. just people in these to keep streets clean and crime to

a minimum. the government resorts to arbitrary arrests and remote rehabilitation centers that resemble prisons up to 4000 men in uniform with cramped together on this island. the new wanda is known as the land of a 1000 hills with lush and unspoiled nature. its volcanic mountains are home to a very rare species of animal the mountain to realize it's only found in 3 countries in the world, uganda democratic republic of congo, and bewanda. dr. noel is one of their guardian angels. these

animals are endangered and needs special protection. so did they go that way? they're not far where the group of truck has went ahead have found the group. but as you can see, we were going to use this tray. but the group had to move this direction. it's no easy task. the gorillas are constantly on the move. well dumped in a well gets into position. the animals are already moving on but after more than an hour of tracking seriously. oh yes, there's one feeling of that. somebody said, she's got it. it's okay. we're just to give us purse, but don't be scared. of female gorilla has come into view. dr. noel can begin his routine checkup and i can see that

during the observation, even the smallest injuries and unusual behaviors are noted for them. if you missed on information, you might know it when it's too late to help and follows every single life calling . so we have to make sure that we detect health pro brand because before it becomes was this particular type of animal conservation came to the 4 in the 1980s. thanks to american primatologist, diane fuzzy back then there were only 300 animals. their numbers have since tripled, 2 days figure of around $1000.00 living in the wild in family groups. within an hour, he spots a dozen gorillas. there are no problems to report. all the animals seemed to be doing fine. super rulers are national treasures in rwanda. a country with hardly

any raw materials. people here traditionally have lived exclusively from agriculture. but there's big potential for tourism. housekeeping. as evidenced by new luxury, hotels like this one. in 2019 around 2000000 visitors came to bewanda 4 times the number 10 years ago. but in the future, the government wants to focus more on outside investors to develop the country. everything is being done to attract them and to present rwanda in a new light. when entrepreneur savannah swan comes to the capital t, golly, she spends her days in the heart of the business district on the 14th floor of this skyscraper report in the pool. the 1st item on the agenda is to expand the fiber optic network to not you. together with a business partner, selena has invested $2000000.00 euros,
