on the, you're watching the news coming to live from for us. president joe biden arrives in india for the g. 20 summit with leaders of china and russia, skipping the meetings, fight in this package to push other nations tobacco use these on issues like climate change and war and ukraine. also coming up on the show, a new biography of you on mosque says he switched off his star link satellite communications to limit ukraine's ability to attend russian forces. and dw joins

nato troops on exercise in these 2 walkie gap defending the alliance as most vulnerable point in the baltic states. the hello, i'm clear, richardson, thank you so much for joining us. world leaders are gathering in india for a summit of the g. 20 group of leading nations. it'll address divisions over the war and ukraine and other key issues. there's a 20 futures, the biggest economies, including the us, china and the european union, plus emerging players like india, brazil, and turkey. us president joe biden is a monkey heads of state landing in delhi. he has already met the indian prime minister around ramadi and database chief international editor richard walkers, in delhi, he told us more about what to expect from talks between joe biden and moody to load

the invite. and matt, just recently in washington are assigned to the real low growing closeness between india and the united states. and the american side just saying that they're going to be picking up on a lot of conversations loves the agreements they made during that meeting in, in washington. dc earlier in the year, and there a range of issues that uh, i'm sorry, big steps like for instance, an agreement to have american fighter jet engines manufactured in india, an agreement to sell military drones to india. so they'll be picking up on those conversations. also planning for a client visit by joe biden, a major visit by joe biden to india in january next year. so one of that on the kind of bilateral level, but of course also they're going to be looking ahead. so the g 20 summit that awaits us over this weekend, and some of the contentious issues, particularly what to do about ukraine. so we'll talk about that in just a moment. so those are 2 kind of levels of bilateral level, but also looking ahead to this summit. yeah,

absolutely. i do want to come to the war and ukraine out 1st though. one big thing here at china is liter, cj and ping is not attending as stomach. can you tell us how big of a below his absence is for the host india? or yeah, well it's definitely being seen as a blow for the hospital. so blow to the g 20 process that this is a full run that really you should have the top lead is that every year and that she didn't, paying has attended, made it a priority to attend it until now. so it looks speculation about the reason that the indian side in public, at least they're trying to downplay it. i say that it's not such a big deal. but if you told you people in private, i've spoken to an observer recently who's close to the government policy here. and this person said that he did pay to be a calculated effort to embarrass india. um, so the indian side, i think, really a not happy about this a tool and speculation about why. well,

at the moment the india china relationship is in bad shape is a massive border dispute. we just so recently when china published a new national map showing that it claims an entire indian state of a rule not tell protest in the north east of india. but also i think the fact that india is positioning itself and using this g 20 summit strongly to business itself as the voice of the global house, we're going to hear a lot about that well this weekend. and the thing is that china also wants to position itself as the voice of the global south. so i think for all the time that we spend talking about the us, china rifle re, i think this weekend, we're beginning to see how important also the china india rifle rate is to shaping the future of world defense. and richard, just briefly, before we go, um we've mentioned the war and ukraine overshadowing this whole summit. india does seem to want a joint communicate here. do we know how difficult that's going to be?

yeah, it's tough. last year they just about managed it. it was against the olds, a joint communicate did come out with quite critical language about the war and ukraine. this year, russia and china blocking the same language that was used last year. and that leaves india with the task of trying to bring the g 20 together this time around. i think it's a sign of just how divided the world has become that they can't even agree to use the same language that they used last year. again, this time, so we don't know yet if that will be, agreement works the space over this weekend. we sure will. we thank you so much for your reporting. that is the w's chief international editor richard walker, or un secretary general antonio, which i her, she gave a start climate warning warning in the run up to the summit. he said the climate crisis was spinning out of control. guitar said collective measures taken so far were not enough to prevent a climate breakdown. the g 20 countries, which i met about 80 percent of global emissions,

were asked to commit to limit in global warming to $1.00 degrees celsius. well, molly has been hit by 3 terror attacks within 24 hours. and the latest incident gunman stormed an army base. hundreds of german troops station nearby have to take cover. the government says 49 civilians and 15 soldiers were killed in 2 separate attacks earlier on a passenger boat and, and another on an army base near bomba. a group of related with all titus as it carried out. the assaults now 3 days of national warning have begun. let's make our correspondent flourish and y e in lagos, nigeria, who's been following the story for us, for 3 attacks in 24 hours. what impact will this have in molly? so um, this is very, very shocking. for a lot of people are very um, very scary. i would say for a lot of people we buy the ordinary citizens in by the i spoke to some,

some somebody in by me. and um, the report says that there's just a rise in the people being scared that of the situation just keeps getting worse. um, if you, if we 5 you, as we recall that there was a me chico in my the my, these crazy on that and maybe to reach him. and the main reason for that was because of the security. and in fact, mommy has expelled french a french military and also um the un peacekeeping forces as well because the cling that they were only able to handle the insecurity. but obviously from the group of things, even then leaning towards russia is not helping things seem to be getting worse and worse every day. yeah, there's a good growing sense of here and on sets and see, i'm on my hands. yeah. you can totally understand that. do we have any information

about the perpetrators behind these attacks as well? we don't necessarily have specific information about the people behind it, but we do know that this was perpetrated by oh, this a series of tax. what's the veteran said by east lemmings terrace, of the region of northern by the as basically being besieged by a security on the service. the says 2012 mean, so 2008. in 2016, there was an agreement between the government and the flemish forces in the area which kind of 12, the situation for a while. but then the ministry came on to go by and it was back from ground 0. so basically attacks have been going for a very long time, the money and a talk. this things are getting worse. yeah. could you provide us with some insights into the security situation generally in northern molly?

well, northern body has become involved for in security around how long does that hill region, cabbage series of attacks. many people they have been forced to leave because of the savvy service groups have been decrease, taking over that particular territory. we're talking about places as important as the team both to know. uh we, we call team book to he's one of the main historical sparks load us for west africa before africa because of the way it has. the oldest university in africa cemetery is taking over the area and destroyed mitchell. historical buildings is there as well. so the secure in security, like i said, even most of my the has been ongoing for more than 10 years and it continues to unfortunately be this deterring. well, thank you so much for up for providing us with that perspective. that is our

correspondent flourish by you many thanks a so we can have a look now at some other stories making world news headlines. at this hour. prosecutors in spain of accused the football federation president and the result of the address of sexual assault and coercion. the charge relates to him kissing a player on the lips without consent after the women's world cup final. if found guilty, he could face a fine or up to 4 years in jail. or russian missile strike on police headquarters and ukraine's central city of creevy agree, has killed one officer and injured many more building and president learners. lensky is hometown has been reduced to rubble. 3 people were killed in other attacks across ukraine. at least 2 people have been killed and dozens more injured by severe flooding and land slicing hong kong. the cities, whether agency report the heaviest, hourly reinforces record again 140 years ago. and storm

daniel has killed at least 13 people and cause widespread destruction across greece, turkey, and bulgaria. one of the worst hit areas is the port of bolos in northern greece. our correspondence of the excess talkie met some of the residents struggling to cope. weeks after wild fires raged all across the mediterranean. the balconies are being battered by a savage storm. in the greek city of balls, residents have been without running water and electricity for days. the water level of the river craft fitness, which runs through follows, has risen by 3 meters. shops remain closed as the owners tried to assess the cost of the deluge. africa. that's really key for a mock is, has run her business for 37 years. and i believe in a few days we might see whole b let just disappear from the map, said,

you know what, this means in one work got best or fee leave. it hurts me. it really doesn't know what the got one or 40 at the foot of mount pelley on this road, bears testament to the waters force. as i'm sending your people the residence of come here to see the see, the damage that has been caused by all the waters that have been carried down. really unbelievable. and it's so different pictures. and back in the city center, people are queueing in front of the supermarket to buy drinking water. but the queue is even bigger in front of the city hall, where water bottles are being distributed for free moments in the garage as people it moves in the house pieces.

but right now we'll look, you know, need to be next to them to share a lot of what of of a drug ship to stop today. because like most, you're living again, storm down you is gradually easing. but for now, the only thing the residents of all those can do is wait for the winds to subside. well, a new biography of you on mosque claims, the type who disables this company. star links star link satellite systems to florida new crating and a drone attack on russian worship near crimea. the book alleges that most feared moscow would retaliate with nuclear weapons. moscow said star link was not deactivated, but just wasn't operating in the area most began donating star lake services to ukraine in the early days of the war, his biographer, claims mosque, and our address that anthony king and professor of war studies at the university of

work told us why star link is so important to ukraine. split, stalling cuz been tighter than the central role in the ukraine in military effort in the campaign. because it's provided to create key functions. it's just the, it's providing the ability for the ukrainians to run a digital kalonde in communication system based on the satellite connections with the store they provide. and also has helped in terms of ministry charging the targeting of russian positions as well by separate by the soft lights that are obviously surveilling and monitoring the terrain in both you crying and being russia. so it's, it has been extremely important. and of course, the other crucial thing is the mosque was able to give it to the landscape government and the training military almost immediately off to the invasion. so in a time to complete crisis, he provide an extraordinary level of capability. yeah. and now these allegations

coming out in the biography, i'm, what do you make of the facts, but a non elected private actor can single handedly make such a crucial decision that could change the whole course of the war. so yeah, i mean i, i'm like, no, go as far as, say, texas, the whole course of the world. but i think it's a deep, clean pool on significant fact. and, you know, many people who've already deployed it. i think this is slightly different way of viewing it, but the reality is the 21st century we states that few powers rely on private companies to keep private tech companies, commercial tech companies dine to and digital companies to provide them with key capabilities, communications capabilities, data capabilities computed processing capabilities, which they certainly caught through without just to competitors know, the russian military has been equally dependent upon a private, a private organization name, new york, and involved. there is a very different organizations, brutal kind of medi evil, most me organization,

but not both sides have been increasingly dependent for the actual war, flight and capability on private companies. and the fact is, once they've brought companies all, do you know, absolutely essential to war, fighting to campaigning like cool act as the goodness of that kind of site and how that company types of place. and this is where is the most uh, controversy, images. well, exactly with this kind of dependency isn't the west essentially putting its own security or risk by rely on private companies to provide such a critical infrastructure as well? one level, yes, it is. and there have been various tensions in 2017, for instance, google withdrew from the, the us pentagons project, my even, which was an alger our algorithm project project. my, they're trying to get all expression intelligence and targeting process. so yes, there is definitely dependence on the private sector organization that could be

problematic. i'm, i'm from the 20th century perspective. that's unusual. put it in a longer term perspective on, for instance, the modern period, 16 century through the 18th century. and although historically, or it's very know, the government states military's on the east have relied on private sector organizations to provide the actual combat power. i mean the early your payment of keys will complete depending on those referrals if it is disturbing. it is a massive change, but it's not one. it's a change rolled in some complete kyle, that's going to engulf a so, but it is a realistic change when we're more flights in the future and the present one will need to take on these companies and have some accommodation with these private companies. yeah, so if this is the reality we're facing just briefly before we go, let's look at the future and what are the implications for ukraine going forward? many have expressed concerns that it has become too reliant on star link as well. i

mean, the trouble is, is relied on stalled and gets re log on all the probably the tech companies, google, microsoft. andrew palin serving, played a central roles. i think the key question for you crying is what's going to happen in the year in the american elections next step 10. and i think if the republicans get, and i think especially if the truck gets in, i think the issue of stalling will become a very minor issue to whether the, the, the american government washington decides to withdraw it support that point. the talk guy even changes the ukrainians and for the president's landscape. yeah, absolutely. anthony king, thank you so much for taking the time to talk with us. we really appreciate it. thank you. well, it is often described as natives, achilles heel, a strip of sparsely populated, land stretching some 65 kilometers on the border between the native states, poland and lithuania. this a walkie gap is

a challenge for nato to defend. the strip connects the russian x clay of clinton grad with bella ruse, and a freshman, bella, ruth, wherever, to invade, enclosed back up. nato members. lithuania, lot via and estonia would be cut off from allies to the self. w as terry shoulds travel through this walking gap with the british nato troops on exercise. these nato troops based in poland are moving through what the alliance considers, perhaps, is most vulnerable area. a land court or nick named this lucky gap. it's located between 2 nato allies, poland and lithuania, but also between russia and developers. this is cause for concern because it's the only way for nato to reach its baltic state allies by land. there is any way, one way to get to latvia and that is alt through lithuania. and this will okey doke . that means of moscow were to seize the sa walkie cord or lobby, and the other baltic states would be cut off and could only be reached by sea. the

commanding officer of this british squadron on his way to an exercise in latvia, says training in the region is vital for us going up to lot via provides a new real estate and you training opportunity. uh the opportunity to go up against a live simulated estimate. which, which puts my soldiers to the test. some of those tests are just about getting troops to where they need to be. this con boy had 3 vehicles breakdown causing many hours of delay. but parker says, figuring out how to get them back on the road was part of the training. he wanted his troops to get an overnight at the nato base and lithuania, gave the british troops a chance to rest and refilled their tags, hosted by german army, lieutenant colonel. andrea's care center who commands the multi national battle group keeping watch from the other end of this walking cord, or we conduct the trainings in order to be prepared for us and noble russian forces crossing the border to the fine young. yeah, well, village is always very crucial for many to of informations, and of course it's

a strong sign to show that we are not sitting in a little better expect to be able to move between the baltic states. they're able to move, but could they move faster than russian forces? that's an open question. nato may not be doing enough to answer this. motorcade had a police escort to guarantee access to the highway and quick processing at the border crossings. but in case of a real, i says fewer things will be under nato's control. and that's why some experts are saying the alliance and stage more snap exercises to practice what might happen if pressure were to attack with no warning to experience that need those former top military commander general feel it breedlove strongly advocates more. no noticed exercises in so walk and beyond, which would push troops in his words, to failure, to come back stronger. we need to give our forces hard problems to solve and force them to think outside the box. it's more than getting to an exercise area and

setting up camp, we need to be tested in the quiet city of so walky residents are a custom to hearing such talk, especially after russia launched warren ukraine. some are dismissive, others thankful that the worst case scenarios so far remain just hypotheses of war, gaming and planning. i think there is nothing to worry about. i see that others say, oh lou, be terrified that it can like a swell happened to us if we went in and they talk at that situation, that would be completely different. probably we, we would be attacked. nato military officials acknowledge a more aggressive russia means they need to increase their readiness for any potential crisis, which includes making sure so lucky remains an open core door and is less of a gap. the while there

has been a big upside at the men's basketball worlds comp. in the philippines. germany have stoned the usa when in 113 it to 111 to reach their 1st world cup final. they now play serbia and sundays final. they've already now battered their previous best of 3rd place in 2002. meanwhile, the usa missed the final for the 2nd tournament in a row. and right after there, when i asked if armored germany coach and rid of what that all means for germany's unbelievable. great feeling for all in germany. it's historic moment for us. we've never been to the world cup finals, so a great day for john basketball for sure. yeah, i mean, usa, we're obviously be heavy favorites. how did germany come up with this when while they have not lost the all tournament, so they have a very good team. they've been together for a long time. they have a bunch of very good and also m b a players the type very well together. and has had maybe one of the best games they've ever played. so that's how it happened.

that for you, what was the highlight of the match? what our uh, shooting got on the oldest was really on fire and you score $24.00 points for us. a and as a guide that is very dangerous, but so many, many sides of greatness today and not just the resilience of, of our team was really incredible. into all game. yeah, so we've mentioned this has already germany's best effort performance at the world compet. do you think that they can beat survey out in the final it's a, it's a special meeting. of course we are meeting our former a german national team coach to switch and stuff. is it sure who is now coaching the serving team? i think we have a good chance. uh we have to settle down after this great week. uh, a great when to see if uh we can re focus about uh, you know, it's gone for the gods and i think we have a good chance. well, thank you so much for speaking to us and congratulations. and it's henry, read all the former german international coach. i really appreciate your time.

thank you very much for having me to tennis now. and at the us open american number 6. see the cocoa golf b a check are currently not in the trophy in straight sets to reach her 1st to us open final. clement protesters interrupted the match for almost an hour with at least one person, including their feet to the floor in the stadium stands. ever since bursting on the scene as a 15 year old in 2019 cocoa golf has been heralded as a future grand slam champion. now she has earned another opportunity to reach the pinnacle of tennis with the home crowd family behind her. and out of their seats, and who could blame them after points like these, the gulf? let 6 for one mill when climate pro just as brought the game to a halt for people stood chanting for the end of fossil fuels with at least one

blowing their feet to the floor. you know, i always speak about the preaching, you know, you know, preaching about what you feel and what you believe in. and it was done in a peaceful way, so i can't get too mad of it. obviously, i don't want it to happen with a lot of rain or winding up 6410. i wonder they mentioned the keep going, but hey, if you, that's what they felt that they needed to do the get their voice is heard. i can't really get upset at it. 49 minutes later, the game resumed, seemingly unaffected by the interruption. golf converted to a 6 match point to reach our 1st us open final it will be the american 2nd attempt to win a grand slam singles title. after finishing runner up to poland, so you guys to be on tech. at the 2022 friends open just before we go, a good reminder of our top story. world leaders are gathering in india for the g. 20 summit with the leaders of china and russia,

skipping the meeting. us president joe biden is expected to push other nations to back his views on issues like climate change and the war ukraine. you have it as soon as the update coming up after a short break is need at least asia with my colleague energy station for that. or you can find this online at g, w dot com. i'm sorry, richardson, thanks very much for watching the,

the sounds you stories of south africa in the company of this team is so way to acquire as well as meeting people through music. music means showing the method of setup or

that's i believe, what's one? because it has no vandals in 16 minutes, d, w, you might see me. how much can we do simultaneously? multitasking these, the modern methods. because if we do too much at $180.00 all wrong, we mess things up, risking brain damage. so let's stop this self sabotage humans and multitasking. watching our new to v w documentary, how offline rivers created is it by a most of full trying volts of power as it goes into the b trees spacing goes up to $1000.00 leases of low. so in the day,

forest fires evaporating, marsh amounts of moist tune in to get the onset and learn more about the heavy and visible over the 2nd flows through the sky. start september 20th on dw, the this thursday. the news aisha coming up today in the about to change it's the official name. speculation has been rife, since d turn to invitations featured part of the countries him the name. what's behind the break with convention? is it the case of ideology over identity and the village, and the problem has found that the change of mindset farming flies and the squirming lobby can be a profitable business.
