here in the northern hemisphere, the summer of 2023, june july, august. we'll go down the history as the hottest ever, only to be followed by a september says all the british arnelle sweltering in the longest september heat wave on record 2 hot there and 2 wet in grease this week. some places in greece is so a years worth of rainfall in just 2 hours, flash flooding of biblical proportions. when resident saying that you can't escape by calling and remember, you'll need noah's ark. instead, i break off in berlin. this is the day, the destruction, everything there was here, cars, garbage cans, everything was swept away. we've never experienced anything like this before and all these years, even old people we spoke with,

told us that they never experienced this phenomenon before. being free lunches and bangladesh. tysons and homecoming and this was worse than anything with this things that we have done to the climate in the fall, we call and change that we call get out of that. so we do still have a choice about the future and how much we change and also coming out of a woman's right to an abortion that can depend on courts and geography for american and mexican women, the north or south of the border. oh yes, i'll see you then to day next week and society woman support networks, feminism are doing spectacular work in mexico. so that the only woman, if they so choose, have the right to an abortion in a safe way. that a to a level the, the money that's going to our viewers watching on p

b as in the united states and to all of you around the world. welcome. we begin the day with extreme weather all across europe. it's a story up and seasonal heat waves, wild fires, drought, and now devastating floods in all of this, in just the past week. a storm system called daniel has produced record rain fall across greece, figuring lance lines and sweeping entire villages away. not too far away in bulgaria and turkey, that same system has claimed at least 14 lots and on the other side of europe, it's just too hot. the u. k being scorched finance longest september heat wave on record. we have more now and this report for more than a year's worth of rain poured down here in just 24 hours. gree says it's unlike anything the country has experience before. hold on, most of it is good for the thought. the country is dealing with a phenomenon, the likes of which we have never seen in the past decreasing just about in fun. and

the city follows some $200000.00 residents were left without running water for 3rd day. there's nothing we can do about the 50 close to get the so no food to keep in the fridge. that's what up at the bathroom. you've got to say nothing at all on your task. yeah. only that we won't have to be a supermarket. it's up to you, i bet believes that all the see everything was gone within minutes as the water passed through with the full force of a river destruction. everything that was here caused garbage on terms. everything was swept away up for something on the helicopters, evacuated hundreds trapped in their flooded homes, many of whom had to wait for the lightning storm to calm. rescuers are still trying to reach dozens of strand villagers using life boats and diverse greases emergency services had been overwhelmed with extreme weather events

. the summer after dudley wildfires read in the north for 2 weeks 30 say the torrential rains. believe to have been made worse by the warming mediterranean, or the most extreme on record. or you want to bring in now meteorologist matthew kabuki to break down this extreme whether matthew is going to see you again. the record rainfall is being blamed. on the omega dome or the omega weather system, what is the a yes in the morning omega black consists of 3 different weathers. this is almost in the opposite direction. and the interlocking view below the space clockwise, has been clockwise loaded. and the 3 imagined as a result, because you're like next year, they don't really buzz in that pattern and stay stuck for long period of time. as a result. some folks, one of the unlucky part of that isn't get the same way for days at a time,

and that means that means the rain don't keep repeating. and ultimately on the edge of that high pressure system, that's where you can see a tendency storms. many were printing or people moving st areas and you get so it may be september, but the u. k. record gets hondas day of the year today. it is now and it's longest heat wave in september on record. how much of this is being fueled by the very warm waters of the land as well? the piece of the atmosphere? yes, we just had our highest to start with your on a regular customer on record worldwide. of course your last a summer be june, july august. so that's impressive in of itself. but at the same time to do that, more models are, are still incredibly high health reinforce a high pressure veto. and so it's like one sort of leads to another and they keep doing ok each other at the same time to look back around the community change. and

so we know that the see events are going to become more stream the longer, more days and duration works is actually magnitude to a more geographically as well. so that's one of the big concerns with this. and ultimately, between that and the most right here, attributing to that recall is offered to euro. it comes with no surprise that ordinary. eventually, he's a reference, arizona nephew, the greek prime minister today was quoted as lamenting that the carefree summers of the past will soon cease to exist. he basically said that things will most likely get worse. moving forward. what do you say to that? as a media raleigh? just so i think there, there are some sort of that personally, i think that this juice or biggest impact race. how does that reason? recent years flooding and driving wildfire are both the main work string body movements. of course, people look at that and say the 2 opposite, these be influenced by the same underlying change. and the reason is that something

called the closet relationship for every se, the air condition for uses the whole 7 percent more want. sometimes you get weather patterns where it's very dry and so the height of weather investigate the landscape . stacks more moisture out of the ground heat up more and more getting drone, getting fire concerns other times of what we're seeing right now. you have a little bit of moisture and cold water holidays, and as a result you get more flooding in the same thing at the same communities finally changed and actually have multiple different effects. and of course exasperating disasters on both sides. one, yeah, yeah, and unfortunately we have the job of reporting more and more of these disasters. matthew community is always matthew, we appreciate your time. any reporting. thank a or mexico's is supreme court has the criminal wise abortion in the country ruling that laws that banned the procedure are unconstitutional. the court said that penalizing abortion violated

women's human rights. abortion is already legal in several and mexican states, but this ruling will likely pay the way for wider access to the procedure. mexico is just the latest latin american country dilution abortion restrictions following argentina, back in 2020 and colombia last year. everywhere on this, i'm joined now by beatrice garcia, nice from the wilson centers latin america program. beatrice wrote an article recently titled moving in opposite directions, abortion rights in latin america, and the united states features. it's good to have you with us on the program tonight. so north of the border, the us federal government and the longer guarantees abortion access the opposite of what we see happening now south of the border. how do you explain this? thank you for having me. and this is a really good, successful day for latin american movement, especially here in mexico,

where we see that the supreme court has the, penalize, the abortion in the country. what does this really mean right now? it means that all federal public health institutions in the country are required to provide this service free of charge and that doctors that do these procedures will no longer be criminalized. this decision comes after a, a 2021 decision both are by the supreme court of mexico that recognized as women's reproductive rights as human rights. and as such, women could not be sent to jail or penalized for having kind of worse than despite the session. and in 2021, only 11. kind of 32 states and mexico. the penalized abortion. so this last pushed by the feminist movement here to really puts it on a highlight that women's reproductive rights in mexico or at least are winning

a lot of space. yeah, i mean, that's an interesting point you bring out because i know in the united states the, the debate as it has always been from women. this is, you know, our body, our rights. and you're saying though that in mexico, that's only part of the story. and that's only part of the explanation for why we're seeing, basically a complete opposite when we're talking about abortion rights. and mexico mean, what has, what has, what does mexico have maybe that you don't have in us discourse as i think it several things and you wish you'd really frame this as a regional success. i think that countries in latin america has been very successful in having a united message, a united front against the sort of the economy, the place, the portion rights just of sexual or reproductive rights. i think one of the biggest successes that feminist movements, or like the last i mean need,

does like we call them here in latin america have achieved is that reproductive rights, abortion rights are a human rights. and if you don't have a human right, if you don't guarantee those rights for women, then you're not really doing your job as to state this. obviously, a very different from that this course that the united states currently has. where after the jobs um uh, decision last year where the rates or how they legislate, abortion right, goes to the states. right. it's vastly different from what is happening in countries that mexico or argentina and colombia in recent years. yeah, if, if we looked at this on a global level 2 on the i was looking at the numbers only. there are only 4 countries right now in the world that have recently restricted abortion access, that's the us, poland, nicaragua, and el salvador. with that in mind,

shouldn't we be looking at this story then maybe as of the united states as the outlier here in mexico, as part of the trent a yes, we can upgrade. united states has traditionally and it still this on many, many issues. the beacon of citizens, right, it's right of freedom, free mode of expression, freedom of gathering. but in this particular sense, the discourse on abortion has become so college aside and especially ahead of the 2024 presidential election. but now i, women are facing in the united states more and more restrict the access to abortion care and competence. for example, as in the got, i want to solve the, which is the region that i cover. you can see a tiny relationship, right? a car relation between a talk receives and lack of democratic institutions and process,

the waste violations of human rights. and i think that was very valuable and important for women's movements in latin america that they have really manage to build that this course. and to build an argument that's from human rights as women's rights. let me just ask you before we have another time, considering the situation in the united states for women and abortion access, do you think we are looking at a future where we may see some american women traveling south of the rio grande to get access to ban abortion to we are already seeing this happen, right, especially in border towns in border stays south of, of the united states. we are already seeing collectives or feminist organizations in mexico and latin america supporting women in the united states with abortion pals with guidance with o. b, g, y, n online care,

so that it's already happening right now. the problem and then the united states is that the word abortion has become extremely politicized. extremely difficult for politicians to address. and it is something that can be managed and can be changed, but it will take time just to give you an example. 10 or 15 years ago talking about abortion and latin america was almost impossible. even 7 years ago. 95 percent foreclosure were over 2095 percent of women in latin america lived in countries where youth abortion was highly restricted. if not prohibited at all. this has changed and one of the reasons that it has is because these collective feminist movements have managed to bring a united front in the united message that has resonated with women and authorities throughout the region. beatrice garcia, nice with the wilson centers,

latin american program, beatrice. we appreciate your time and your analysis tonight. thank you for having me. in the is said to welcome world leaders to the g. 20 summit in delhi with to noticeable no show. russian president vladimir putin and chinese president, she's in pain of their absence, certainly cannot be overlooked. and it could render a joint community a impossible as divisions over the ukraine more large. let's go back in time for a minute to november 2022. at the last g 20 summit. the there was high drama, the opening ceremony, and this was a dramatic event with the war and ukraine dividing. well, the host indonesia as president. joe, could we do to made a powerful appeal?

stop the war at a big stop. the war. the diplomacy was intense. joe biden, and she, jim ping met for the 1st time in years. and again, school the yours, the summit to achieve full beginning with strong working on the and with that, it was in the as time since then, the war has kept raging on and the world is got even more dividers. leaving india with the massive diplomatic challenge of getting the g 20 to come together. this time around. this is the man in the middle. india is main. negotiate or shop i spoke to dw for this week. the challenge, just to discuss with the ard when people is and finally i live at an agreement. everybody has a reboot ball and that sort of makes the job be challenging to we do our best. this

is meant to be in the as moment in the sun sharing the g 20 for the 1st time. it's positioned itself as the voice of the global south standing up for issues the matcher to the developing well 6 of the 12 fastest growing countries in the world today out from africa. so the problem is this bush for african union to become a permanent member of g 20. this has had a huge, a very big support from all of the leaders with the word and hopefully we'll see african union and becoming a permanent member. but geo political divisions still overshadow all of this. she, jim pain is not even showing up. she's decision not to come to delhi is being seen as a real snap to india. and as a risk to chances of a breakthrough on ukraine. the pressure reading remote is negotiating t as in tents. the ukraine issue may be important. some countries some far to the

water, but it's not an important issue for many other countries. all the developing countries, emerging countries for all of us view not created the ukraine wall that does not bring one issue of a water which is going on for one or the off feels in your ups and best bids on every other issue of the word. you can sense real frustration that india is stuck in the middle of a crisis. there is no faithful and yet that's the reality of the divided world that we're living in. so this, we can some, it will be a test, not just events you would have whether the world is in any fit state. so ever comments, divisions says, joining me now to talk more about the g 20 summit. and the role of india is to with guns only the distinguished professor of political science at indiana university professor. it's good to see you. i want to ask you 1st things 1st, who is really hosting this summit, the invitations that were sent out from billy. um say that they are coming from the

president. busy bar, right, of that, got our attention. can you explain to our viewers, um, who is the president of what, why is that significant and does it mean india is about to change its name? yes, it is quite significant because the indian concept distribution refers to india and bought it in the same sentence. pottis' is the, is the old traditional name uh for india. and its given that the country is now in the hands of india nationalist and particularly in the nationalist, led by prime minister a movie. it does not come as a surprise to me that they are changing the name to the heart of will. of course, what they don't realize that the name india comes from the in the name of the

river in the us. and it's people who live by the river in the us, where known as the indians. so it's hard to be a colonial imposition. as many in the bgp are claiming. so, so, but we're not looking at the a new brand remotely trying to to, to re brand or rename is country. that's not happening here. well that's exactly what he's trying. brent, whether he succeeds in this endeavor and can bring about your colleagues, produce mill amendment involvement is an entirely different matter. uh, let me ask you about what um, mr. moody can hoped to realistically achieve by hosting the summit. you know, you've been, i have spoken before about the rising power rising influence of india. how crucial is this g $24.00 that momentum to continue?

well, i don't think it's the g 20 that will make a vital difference to india is a growth creat directory. and it's writes, i think this is mostly symbolic and ceremonial. however, it is a movies, hope is that it will plays very well in india and domestic politics. to see all these will be the, it is high being antonio delhi with president biden, coming to new delhi, no less to attend the g 20 summit and with the elections looming in 2024 movies, hoping to capitalize on the domestic benefits that might accrue from hosting this summit with such extraordinary fanfare, when, as with major global leaders present at the supplement, india is also a member of the briggs countries. we know that recently there has been

a lot of talk about the briggs nations getting together and pushing a, an attempt to de dollar rise the global economy. with that in mind, put this in the mind if you can of the ranger moody the summit when he runs into president joe by. what's it going to say if president biden says never, andrew, what are you doing to my greenback stokes? mo, the will probably come up with some platitude and as her response to it, as i'm and no dying responds, he would say, oh no mister president. i am your friend. i couldn't possibly do that. it's just that we are interested in a more miles people who are the global older reflecting the change in global politics since 1945 a very he is not going to be gone for intentional with by being because he values

that relationship far too much from an economic standpoint from a military standpoint, from a diplomatic standpoint. so he will find some adroit way to avoid a confrontation with bites and that to all costs. yeah, i mean, he is a, he is of course, a of a good politician that, that is true. the how much the do you think it is moody? is he trying to have his cajun ended to hear when it comes to, you know, maintaining the strong alliance with the us and at the same time, you know, being a part of the brits community doing things that are seen as an a concerted effort to undermine the world's reserve currency, the us dollar i don't think the movie so much is committed to that the enterprise as are other members of the brakes. most importantly said the chinese and the russians. possibly the brazilians

movie wants to remain in depth, multi latrell for them in considerable cost, as part of his vision and of india as an emerging great power and simultaneously old. so do in a to keep a watch on the chinese quite frankly, this expansion of the bricks was one of the silliest ideas imaginable. that what do, what does brazil n e t o p a have in common modern tina is in dire economic straits. i mean, this is, this is frankly a full zara. profess, i've got 30 seconds left. very, very briefly. do you think there's going to be a final communicate to come out of this summer? even if there is a final drawing to communicate. it will be an extraordinary lead,

die muted one to enable people to demonstrate some semblance of a consensus. but the problem i think, will be with the united states, which will not go a long way to communicate that does not make some adverse re response to the ukraine price. professor somebody can believe distinguished professor political science at indiana university professor is always good to see you. we appreciate your valuable analysis. thank you for joining us on this thursday. thank you. good night. as well, the day is almost done, the conversation, it continues online and remember whatever happens between now and then tomorrow is another day, it'll be friday. we'll see you tomorrow the

to the point strong, clear positions, international perspective. the chinese president will not attend the g 20 meeting and in the deepening what seems to be an ever growing rivalry with another agent powerhouse. so on to the point we ask cynthia boons, china, what does it mean for the rest of the world? to the point the next on d. w,

teach us into the conflict with tim sebastian university. it's true. so for the 1st slide, the russians defensive in the southern region lives operation. my guess this week is erie stockton by the gardens ministry and he's to, or he's country will give a piece on what he was. conflict in 60 minutes on dw the or a imagine that you're eating a hamburger. and as you're biting into this juicy burner, your dining companion says to you, actually the hamburger is not made from cows. it's made from golden retrievers.

2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 in meeting cultures around the world, people learn to classify small handful of animals with edible and all the rest of the classify as disgusting. a donkey series about our complex relationship with them and also need to be watch now on youtube. d. w documentary the never before, and has a chinese head of state, canceled the g 20 meetings. the forum for the most important industrialized and emerging countries, seating thing is now sending his premier lead to new delhi. this will most likely be seen as an affront by host moody, yet sea and body certainly pursue coming to entrance against western dominance. on the other hand, they are our tribals with leadership aspirations for the global sounds. in addition, china's economy is we can while india is cap.
