7:02 pm
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 drugs to india. so they'll be picking up on those conversations. also planning for a plan to visit by joe biden, a major visit by joe biden to india in january next year. so one of that only 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 up 1st though. one big thing here at china is liter. huge and paying is not attending as stomach. can you tell us how big of a below his absence is for the host india or yeah,
7:03 pm
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 hasn't changed. it 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 saw recently when china published a new national map showing that it claims an entire indian state of a rule not tell protest in the northeast of india. but also i think the fact that
7:04 pm
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 so. 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 again, so the olds, a joint communicate, did come out with quite critical language about the war and ukraine. the see it, 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
7:05 pm
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. the again, this time, so we don't know yet if there 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. well, molly has been hit by 3 terror attacks within 24 hours. and the latest incidents and governments stormed an army base, hundreds of german troops station nearby had to take cover. the government says 49 civilians and 15 soldiers were killed in 2 separate attacks earlier. one targeted a passenger boat on the new cher river, the other an army base near bound by a group affiliated with all kite s. as it carried out, the assaults i asked you to use correspondent for us and by you about the impact of these attacks. and molly, this is very, very shocking for

7:07 pm
a more marion's. 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 of this series of attacks. what's we've actually said by east flemish terrace, of the region of northern by the as basically being besieged by you 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 of these situations for a while. but then the ministry came on to pull that and it was back from ground 0. so basically attacks have been going for a very long time, even by the and a tech there's things are getting worse. yeah. could you provide us with some
7:08 pm
insights into the security situation generally in northern molly? well uh, northern body has to be called a fault for insecurity around along this that hill region having series of attacks, many people they have been forced to leave because of the savvy service groups have been decrease, taking over that particular retreat. we're talking about places as important as the team both to know. uh we, we call timble to he's one of the main historical spots load us for west africa before africa because of the, or it has the oldest university in africa cemetery sticking about the area and destroyed mitchell historical buildings. it's there as well. so the secure in security, like i said in the notes that of my, the has been ongoing for more than 10 years and it continues to unfortunately be
7:09 pm
this deter rates. well, thank you so much for rep for providing us with that perspective. that is our correspondent flourish by you many. thanks. a sweet take a look now at some of the other stories making world news headlines at this hour. a russian missile strike on police headquarters and ukraine. central city of creevy g has killed one officer, an injured many more. the building and present will let him use the lens. he's hometown has been reduced to rubble. 3 people were killed and other attacks across ukraine. and voting is underway in russian occupied regions of southern and eastern ukraine, including the city of 10. that's even his allies say, the polls are a sham. the votes coincide with regional elections in russia. well, a new biography of you on mosque a claims. the tycoon disabled his company star link satellite systems to florida ukrainian from an attack on russian worship. near crimea. the bulk of ledges,
7:10 pm
the mosque, fear of moscow would retaliate with nuclear weapons most cuz that, that star like star link was not in the activated but just wasn't operating in the area. must again, donating star link services to ukraine in the early days of his war of the war, his biographer claims mosque, now request spots. and earlier anthony king, professor of war studies at the university of work, i told me why star link is so important to you. crane split, stolen cars been tighter than the central role in the ukraine in military effort in that campaign. because it's provided to create key functions. it's just, it's providing the ability for the ukrainians to run a digital combined 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 satellites that are obviously surveilling and monitoring the terrain in both ukraine and russia. so
7:11 pm
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, um, what do you make of the fact that 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 of states. now that few powers rely on private companies to keep private tech companies, commercial tech companies, die intern digital companies to provide them with key capabilities,
7:12 pm
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, the goal and evolved 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 flight and capability on private companies. and the fact is, once they've private 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 most controversy, images. that was anthony king, professor of for studies at the university of work. speaking to me earlier, we can go to sports now and there has been a big upset at the men's basketball worlds comp. in the philippines. germany have
