the the, this is steve, we news long from or land. nothing new west president declares ukraine's allies long. we were in there support for keep and defending the country against russia. i mean, there are, some of your free will not raging. we will stand for liberty afraid of today tomorrow i for as long as it takes, i think nato someone concludes with the allies,

offering new security guarantees to crane, but no clear roadmap to membership in the line. also coming on a law makers improve a plan to turn a huge trucks of land into forest to defend against climate change. we look at how the nature restoration law will affect forward and we'll get the latest from wimbledon and thrilling action in the quarter. finals had a bit of everything including some payback and women singles. the really gets go down here with us. national leaders have wrapped up 2 days of talking villainy is renewing their commitment to supporting ukraine and defending against russia's invasion. the line for the annual summit also served as a platform for the g. 7. club of powerful democracies were signed off on

a declaration to offer, keeping new security guarantees. nato did not give president bullet arisen lensky will need help for a clear roadmap to joining the alliance. a presidency. lensky looks right at home at this. first of its kind nature, ukraine meeting, its an upgrade and ties to be alliance, but far from the permanent seats at the table he set his sights on the desktop. do you still believe we understand that someone is really afraid of talking about our membership now? because nobody is willing to have a world war which is logical and understandable. so what is it mean when you will, you should know that the board of cream is fighting and we truly understand that we can't be need to members, as long as the work continues to be not. so that's because bringing kids into the folds, no would spark direct war between the 2 and russia. so you crane sorts details on how and when the country can join in the future. but it's germany of the us remained cautious, and the lights avoided any official talk of timelines. stale. ukraine won't go home

empty handed, such as war began. i still in the presence the landscape. i just spend about an hour for their washington keys. and then in hiroshima, and our goal is to declare to the world what i say again, we will not waver. we will ha, i mean that our community will not weaken real estate for liberty and freedom today tomorrow and for as long as it takes which he says in groups of wealthy democracies, the nights plans for you. long term security assurances for kids. they pledge to keep up arms shipments to trade more troops, and to help you create with reforms and recovery. the vision has gone on to these security guarantees are made up of medium term, short term and long term measures. this is not only military support for the right

to self defense throughout the delivery of military supplies, but also economic guarantees for the reconstruction of infrastructure. all fun in flash truck for g 7 nations also say in the event of future russian aggression, they offer swift and sustain security assistance. must go drop the declaration a dangerous mistake. but key is called it a much heated success, taking ukrainians one step closer to victory. even if the pos toward ne to membership still looks long and winding that let's take a little deeper and bring and rachel rizzo. she's a senior fellow at the atlantic councils year of center. she joins us from vilnius . so welcome to the program that was quite an energetic speech from biden, wasn't it? what did you make of it? it was, i mean, i think what he said was very clear. and the message that he wanted to send was exactly what he said, that they are going to stand with ukraine for liberty for freedom,

for as long as it takes. i think a lot of people weren't really sure what to expect when by and got on to stage. maybe talking just about nato, about the importance of the us european alliance. but as you heard, it went far, far further than that he talks not just about you saying, but also about the, you know, the safety of the world order in general. from everything we have heard at the summit and leading off to the summit. and would you say nato allies are serious about bringing ukraine into the fold sunday and then and define future i think some day in an undefined future. it's sort of the key phrase there. i think the lensky wanted more than he got from this nato summit. here in don't the, as he wanted, not just the promise that ukraine will eventually join. but he wanted a cleared timeline. he wanted more. the nato gave you crane back in 2008,

where they made a similar promise saying that you crane, but eventually joined, but gave them no clear pathway as to how or when, but this promise, this time comes along with much stronger security guarantees. economic guarantees and the promise of long term long term security promises. so that is all good news for him. so i think both sides can walk away. happy. does nato plan on extending a formal invitation to ukraine at some point? so why is it so hard to define a timeline for a future after the war or so as, as many people have mentioned, bringing ukraine into nato right now, is a no go because of article 5, which is the alliance is mutual security guarantee. it basically would create a scenario where nato brings itself into the war. so that's often not one crane is asking for ukraine is always talking about a scenario where this war has ended. exactly. so if the war ends and we're looking,

say 5 or 10 years down the road and ukraine does get an invitation to nato and say russia invaded again. then nato allies would be obligated by treaty at that point to go to war width and alongside ukraine, and i think that is still perhaps a difficult tell for many nato allies to swallow. obviously, poland and the baltics. they see this as ex, essential they want ukraine in nato. as soon as the war ends, as we saw from the summit, germany in the us are still a little bit timid as to a promise of an exact timeline. this is a consensus alliance. all 31, hopefully soon to be 32 members with sweden. we have to guarantee to big decisions like this to say, i mean missed opportunities at the summit. so i think that there are some missed opportunities. maybe for those who were really, really pushing for stronger language. you know,

when you come out with communiques from a summit like this, you sort of have to agree upon the lowest common denominator language. and that's why a lot of the communicate that come out can seem a little bit watered down. and really the meat of the security guarantees, especially for ukraine, is found in other, in other statements like the g 7, like the things that different bi lateral countries have said. and so the missed opportunity. i think it could potentially be for a clear timeline. but again, these are very, very difficult things to get 31 allies to agree on. so you know, the 75th anniversary summit will be in washington next year. let's just see what happens then. all right, rachel rizzo from the atlanta council. thank you for your analysis. thank you and for the premium perspective, we can bring in your branding campaign, kira rude, a. c advocates for you, chris integration into the european union, and nato. welcome to the show. me sort of the nato summit is over. now,

how optimistic are you about a brain will really eventually become a nato member. after all that, we've heard in the past 2 days. hello, thank you so much for having me. the pleasure of being on the program. well, the, you know, there is one thing that we definitely learned over the last 16 months. we learned to hear the word know too many of our asks and instructions. and we learned to push through that last year around this time we were hearing so many knows about ukraine getting the candidacy to european union. and we were pushing through that. that'd be heard. so many knows about getting the times the miss. how's the patrick miss house? um and right now we've heard so many knows about getting decide projects that we need badly. but all in all, we know that if we work hard and proceed enough people in the things that we really need and that we believe that we can get the results. so this may sound like it was

very good for ukraine. what is the tomato members are serious about offerings, ukraine membership. we see that one day it will happen. and for us, it's enough to move forward with the achieving this result. you see the flag behind me, the native flag, you flag, and my park inside a few crane. and it actually not because i won this and because it is region in ukrainian constitution that our past is to you and they told it there's a desire to bring in people that we as leaders, as for the patients are executing long. and we know that this is our design test, and if you look back to when the war began, when russian attack, that's in 2014 the objective because we were very clear about this past to you and to nathan not to rush i. and this is why we will be pushing toward it for as long

as it takes and no matter how hard it would be, because we know i would go and we know that it is possible. at least what we've heard from these 2 days of an age assignment, nobody said it was impossible. we were talking about political agreements about the timelines. and for us it would be enough. as i said, we already learned how to push through the toughest notes. and one of the confirmation of that was that there was a noun splendid ukrainian pilots wouldn't be training in different countries. and if you look back in even 2 months ago, it was a really impossible in every but literally everybody was telling us know about that . yeah, look at this right now. and the face of, of the push to turn these nose into yes is, is president zelinski. yesterday, he seemed quite frustrated. but today we saw him roll back thinking the allies after saying that what he was seeing there, the attitude nato was showing, was observed. so was this in response to us,

m u k. officials saying you frame she'll be more grateful for the 8 is receiving to oh, you see, we are always grateful. and i don't think that there is any speech of our leaders would be that would be missing a huge, huge stash to everybody who supports us. we are very clear and we are living proof that you can only fight an enemy that is a much larger and stronger than you when you are not fighting alone. and we clearly understand that. however, there is a huge difference because all the need to leaders that were present at the summit. they are going home to the peaceful countries and prisons. let's keep going back home. we're almost every night we are attacked by the russian miss house. and we do not know we are going to wake up in the morning. and this is why, of course, he's a frustrated when is it goals that we, when did you see in front of us,

that we are not achieving them this time? but again, we are grateful and again, we know that one day we will get them. there are speculations about nato saving. i'll be a crane succession as a kind of bargaining chip and possible negotiations with russia. do you think that this is what's happening right now? i think that russia is looking at every hesitance as a weakness. that is absolutely true. and we know that and presidents lensky was very open about that, that every time they see an opportunity at the civility for themselves, they will use it, and they will, they will use it in their propaganda. what's a rush? i think right now that it is an opening for, for negotiation with them. absolutely, yes. and it is our goal tool. sure. the world and the sure our lives that there are no negotiations, no negotiations, no bargaining for one particular reason. for 3,

i'm not trading, i would people and that would territories, but there is a bigger one. as of right now, 9 years into the war and 16 months into full scale invasion. there is another person or an organization who can assure the twitching will keep his part of the deal. he's part of the barking. and until there is a mechanism or a way to make sure the trash or would not attack us again, there are no even discussion of the potential negotiations. right. that was kara herd x rays are ukraine in m p. thank you so much for your time. thank you. how rush. so we'll see the results of the nato summit in vilnius was a question on conflict. so in terms of ash and asked exile russian political science as your country national, one of the kremlin would react well, most going to be in hoffman. the ukraine, watson's offered the time table for joining nato at the villages summit. but what i know is that they're watching this very closely and by no,

it's not from some sort of inside their sources bought from their opened declaration that talking very much about it. so we can safely say that the eyes of moscow are now in vilnius, by the way, good time to do something in russia. maybe when the ios, our armies turned elsewhere, as i, as in t same tim sebastian's entire interview with you. because our initial was here right after this bulletin or on our youtube channel. but 1st, here are some other world news headlines. and longer mercenary group is completing as hand over of weapons to russia as regular armed forces. the defense ministry made the statement more than 2 weeks after the private group staged a brief revolt. the equipment includes tanks, multiple rocket launchers, and artillery system. protesters and kenya, i have class with police during a 2nd round of demonstrations in less than a week or demanding task, the tax hikes, the scaled back to waste fire to your gas, to qual, demonstrations,

which followed similar gatherings last week and which 6 people were killed the part of sony army says suspected is limis militants have killed at least 4 soldiers and an attack on a military base in the south west of the country. and newly founded as limis group to reach a jihad park as done as claimed responsibility. the northern hemisphere summer has brought extreme weather is in many countries including the united states. president obama has declared a state of emergency as some regions and the ne, see the worst flooding in nearly a century. this is not life, not covered by 2 months, right? and in just 2 days, several communities like this, including the state capital on probably the 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 the mont state police shows

flood waters pulling over time on the as a queen. she river another, walked away, the connecticut river slower and to full meters above its usual level. the frog levels now supposed active. how can i read in 2011? marine had about a 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 study range of the same and ted spring that we saw during irene to 4 times the amount of rain respond as it performed more than $100.00 rescue sofa with other teams being floating in from further afield. police urged people to stay at home unless they have a risk,

in which case they would tell to evacuate. they have been, thankfully no reported casualties thus far. and while the writings have now combed its services, yet another reminder, that's how wells is changing fast. is you parliament narrowly passed a law to help tackle climate change and restore biodiversity is called the nature restoration law, and aims to return 20 percent of land and sea to its natural state. by 2030 big farmers attempted to block the bill. small farmer supported it is a look at what it may mean for them and the climate on venue mean francis 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 corn or what, whatever. you can imagine that you see uh, you know,

a landscapes or it's some of this biodiversity that the european commission. what secure towards on bigger farms as part of the bill to stop ecosystem collapse is proposal for the nature of restoration 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 and birds process, 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 at the job the doesn't give you right away something back here. it's largest

farmer associations have protested 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 of biodiversity, 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 co park, even if it's called pets in nature. conservation means relying on for them to measure audience and teams. right, because we have a clinic restrictions that have to be compensated for. the european commission says that there are various funds to help farmers transition to more sustainable farming . and that it is crucial does happen. now for funds that would be a welcome change. if the area surrounding his farm were restored, this would help his crops grow even better. a less branch fella,

bundle saves a by that we're seeing the project manager for green piece of central and eastern europe. good to have you on the show. the law makers pass the major restoration loved by a razor thin margin, an important step towards fulfilling the ease greendale. but what needs to happen now? well on the one hand, the nation press the ration low brings hold for your up for your nature because it was not projective but is on the other hand, the law. com, that's a very high cost therapy. i'm tired of and that many amendments which could lead me to the actual effect of the law on biodiversity. and the law can only help to reverse the alarming state of nature. you are of the strength and needs next steps. and that being the negotiations between european members day,

the part of the commission before each members, they will have as well. but you need to translate the shaft feeds into operation action by preparing and carrying no nation on a restoration plans. what are you saying to those who argue that this law could undermine so security and fuel installation as well? um, although the state of your fee and major is very, it's quite dramatic when 80 percent of nature being very true cuz condition is, is set to see the members of european parliament of the field, the urgency to act upon that. and that actually spreading nice information, amenities information, such as the law, is the threat to include security. we all know that only healthy advert cottrell ecosystems provide one security in the future. so yeah,

those claims have been developed many times not only by the commission and environmental and use but also by a scientists community. so how can the farmers now fearing for their livelihood be brought on board? will financial aid be enough or is there more that needs to be done? i think it's important for the farmers to realize that they have bad feet on when the restoring nature, not only because of the healthy ecosystems green off to put for the future. and that's their future ingles as secure, but they're also many other environmental economic incentives that the nature of restoration law brings, based on your opinions commission after you are invested in restoration brings more than 80 in economics, about the bundles of grand face. thank you. so much i the,
