[000:00:00;00] the, this is dw dues live it from berlin to 90 with president joe biden in india for the g. 20 summit with the leaders of china and russia escaping the meeting, bargain is expected to lobby other countries for more solidarity, one climate change and the war in ukraine also coming up tonight ahead of elections in washer this weekend. you'll meet a young washington campaigning against apathy and disillusionment with politics. plus the the long must really switch off his satellite communications to limit

ukraine's ability to attack russian forces. a new biography says, yes, he did. and a shock at result as a basketball world, tough germany knock out the us to make it the men's final for the 1st time that and more coming up and support the bridge. gone to our viewers watching on cbs in the united states. and to all of you around the world, welcome. on this friday, world, leaders are preparing together in india for a summit of the g 20 a group of leading economies. they will address divisions over the war in ukraine as well as other key issues such as global warming. the g 20 is made up of the biggest economies, including the us, china and the european union, as well as emerging player such as india, brazil,

and turkey. us president biden has already met with indian prime minister in the ridge remotely. 2 thirds of the world's population is represented at this moment, but the leaders of china and russia are staying away. c, w, steve international editor richard walker, he's in delhi, was more on india's aspirations for this. so in this moment in the sun has really arrived on the from the g 20 summit and is providing a real clements of the kind of roles the india will be seeking on the global stage and the years ahead. it's very much positioning itself as the voice of the global south pitching an agenda at the g 20 that's very much focused on development issues and resisting any sense that the summit will be completely torpedoed by the very, very deep divisions that exist over the ukraine war and potentially the most positive thing to emerge from this somebody this weekend could be appropriate

invitation for the african union to join the g 20. and that would bring in a party representing $55.00 countries on the continent of africa, into the g 20 and turning it from a club of the wells biggest economies into a body that is much more representative of the global south. one thing was quite interesting to observe about this aspiration of india's is that it puts it more into open competition with china, which also likes to position itself as the voice of the global south. and that competition between indian china could be just as important as the competition between the us in china and the use of hedge here in asia. that was dw walker. they're reporting from billy to bring us schultz is from the global public policy institute. i asked him what kind of signals is the indian prime minister new inter moody hoping to send to the world from the some to wells. my guess what india is

trying to tell the world at the moment mostly is that india has rise for the past 20 to 30 years. india has been received as a rising power in the international system. and the summit is really a chance for the rental moody and just government to show the world that india is now a major power and is now on setting the agenda. and it tries to set the agenda by positioning itself as a leader off the global solve this we just charge and india. so now the invitations, most people accepted, not everyone. the chinese leaders, she's in pain. he is not going to be at this summit. should india be insulted? should india read anything into this? swelled towards the north blakely, at least. but of course,

this message by president teach in pink to not attempt that somebody has been quite a low for india. and it's um, presidency, i guess what's really the point here is that she's in pain and she didn't think china wants to wants to lead the world, wants to position itself as the leader and as the leader of the global self. and so does not want to share the stage with moody. and if there is one thing that movies presidency or the t 20 is really doing well, is to organize that station is to, to show with the world how, how india tries to rally around the globe itself. but i don't think about this, um, some of it is from the beginning. i'm kind of supposed to be failing and we know that to china as well as russia will be sending delegates. so that sounds to somebody is

taking part, but it is taking part without it. i'm just trying to figure out what, how big it can be, and she's best interest to be a no show at this summit to meet what, what's your, you know, pick your best stab at that. why is this the best decision for him as well? she is in demo and has quite a complex domestic and foreign policy situation. and i guess it's a mix of all of these different factors that play into it. she's a decision not to join the relations with the us of worsening. there is currently a diplomatic standstill with a japan on a focus. fema and the relations with india have worse. and in the last week, significantly up the break. some when president she released the map that showed

a territory that china claims but which is controlled by india. so she definitely sees that going through. but somebody were definitely making, being confronted with all of these problems that he doesn't really want to be confronted with. so instead he decides not just to contribute to the platform that movie tries to create you. okay, and we know that one reason russian president vladimir putin will be skipping the g 20 is there's an international risk for and has been issued for him. for a legend war crimes in ukraine. what does india want to do with the problem with the russian invasion of ukraine? at this summit? i mean, it has been a blockade to every attempt of getting a communique signed and published. it appears to remain just that of walk a absolutely, and i think the expectation management from the indian side has been that we should

not expect anything from the summer to come out on russia's war in ukraine. india wants to be a bridge builder. so the success of the summit will also depend on how much india will be able to bring the parties together. but i think what do we have to keep in mind here is that on the bottom, the summit last year, the chief 20 summit in indonesia states could were able to agree on a statement regarding russia's war and ukraine from which china and russia later walked back from and they said that they will not return to any kind of a similar a statement. so that makes the situation very difficult on any kind of resolution. and any kind of a shared opinion in the final degree, but by the g 20 to buying shelves with the think tank, the global public policy institute too much. we appreciate your time and your

insights tonight. thank you. or there's a look now, some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world. hundreds of gathered for renewed protests against the syrian president bush or al assad and the government held city of sweden, the demonstrations which are now with their 4th week or a rear show of civil disobedience activists say the protest movement, which was sparked by rising fuel prices, that movement is growing, prosecutors in spain, heavy cues, the football federation president luis, will be alice of sexual assault and coersion. 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. to north korea says it has launched a new tactical nuclear attack submarine. state news released pictures of the country's leader kim jong own at a ceremony for the launch at an unspecified location. north korea has been trying

to ramp up it's naval power. in recent years. a russian missile strike on police headquarters and ukraine's at the central city of for navy re, has killed one officer, an injured many more. the building and president building is lensky is. hometown has been reduced to rubble. 3 people were killed and other attacks across ukraine. elections are being held in russian occupied regions of southern and eastern and ukraine. cheap and the west have dismissed the poles, calling them a sham, rushing back to forward. these are staging the boats in the ukrainian regions of domestic new hans capstone and separate elections are also being held in crime mi, uh, which russia illegally annexed back in 2014 or a residence are also voting in regional and municipal elections this weekend. turn out is expected to be low,

many prominent opposition figures who would like to be running for office cat because they are behind bars. nevertheless, there are some younger candidates who are hoping to put aside disillusionment with politics and hoping to deliver some practical solutions. once a month, bar, bottom up, a whole mobile helps clean up. most goes together with the local residents of additions and environmental activists. she call it and separates both of our boundary and doesn't to wants to stop is there she is running as an independent candidate is the regional elections, even though including thrasher. any criticism of the government can have house consequences to trust, no matter what happens, there will always be everyday problems that need solve a supervisor. so i believe i can do that, so i'm ready to put time into it. that's why i'm running for office to avoid further level of autobahn, right? he's 18,

she's just started studying political science at the most going either at the same time. she's campaigning for a seat in the district, the parliament on what's called single voting, the russians emanuel regions and victor, they are a local parliament and he's a capital, moscow volta solutions and mayo. but when it comes to competing to there is no level maintainance, such as the many restrictions on election advertising debate in mass media is impossible. because independent media outlets have either had to close or go into exile with the opposition simply has no chance of promoting itself. but the phone went to the old despite of this 5, all right, he's determined to reach as many voters as possible. she has called the nathan campaign with independent candidates from other district. it was a no dictated space to meet. they are gathering today, you know,

shopping for the topic. this illusion into the politics in times. here's the question here. the current situation is having a negative influence on many elections because people who are actively participate in 2 years ago say the now the phones out that they cannot change anything. and that's why they no longer want to help. those are the people we want to bring to the parents to prove that it's still worth fighting, but will test. but free, fair voting is not every have a team rush. so say experts lead to as likely to change to the possibilities or special elections taking place under the retiree and circumstances. technically, you can choose between different candidates, there are enough of them. but censorship and self censorship curve. any meaningful discussion? some of the sense here, professor for 30 here, i hope it works out, despise the obstacle is a, is the 0 is the follows. it's a bar up a whole each and the future of russia, which she's determined to have

a say did e line most intervene in the were in ukraine? well, the new biography claims that the type who disabled his company's star link satellite systems to fort a ukrainian jerome attack on russian warship these to provide them with key capabilities, communications capabilities, data capabilities, computer processing capabilities, which they simply taught through without just to competitors. no, russian military has been equally dependent upon a private, a private organization name, legal and involved. there is a very different organizations approved will kind of medi evil most from your organization. but not both sides have been increasingly dependent for the actual flight and capability on private companies. and the fact is, once they 5 companies are the, you know, absolutely essential to war fighting. so campaigning like cool act as the goodness

of that kind of site. and how that company types place, and this is where is most countries who manages spell, a member of germany's for an intelligent service has been charged with treason for allegedly passing secrets on to russia. the man over slowly department monitoring, telephone and internet communications. now he has only been identified by authorities as karsten l to be understand that he was arrested in december of last year. and the legend conspirator has also been charged our political correspondent, husbands. he has more details now on the allegations in this case. so we're talking here about an intelligence officer with the rank of colonel who was working for the surveillance section of the german foreign intelligence service. and recently before his arrest has in fact being put in charge of checking the security clearance of all members working for the intended and service really high ranking

person. he's alleged to have copies of 9 documents, of top secret clearance and positives onto an acquaintance of his, the man who is also being arrested and a is a whole to accuse as a co conspirator, in this case, pausing them onto this man who was, who is in a german businessman of russian origin, who in turn have contacts to russian. businessman, who in turn posts on these documents to the, the russian intelligence service, the as f as b. and both of them are alleged to have received somewhere on $400000.00 bureaus each in compensation for doing this. so it's really the a top person who is not being accused of this is either behind the front, they're reporting at least 10 people are. busy hundreds remain stranded without food or water. at the end of a week, that's all a storm named daniel. pommel greece, once they,

greece is prime minister valid to do everything in his power to help the regions that have been devastated by the flooding in the rain storms. turned streams into raging torrance, bursting dams, washing away roads and bridges and hurling cars into rivers. emergency workers have been sent in throughout central greece, but a lack of access has hampered rescue efforts. some regions received more than a year's worth of rain in less than 24 hours. several people are missing, but it's not clear just how many the air force and the fire department are air lifting trapped residents. these people are from the village of bluehost. they waited 3 days without food before being rescued by the army. further south in columbus. the army is using rubber didn't use to get

people out. the disaster misery, the pain, sorrow is such a tragedy who were suffering and will suffer for a very long time. the damage to our homes is irreparable. a lifetime's worth of work lost within 2 hours. everything is destroyed. the prime minister flew over the flooded areas to assess the damage. he says he's asking the european union for financial assistance to help rebuild the affected areas. is that what should have happened? what's happened, and what could be done best or would it be discussed later? and let's see our priority at the moment of saving people rescuing those who were at risk in the villages to which we do not have access or for those who can be reached by rescue workers. drones or dropping medicine and other necessities. the torrential rains on flooding,

falling wild fires that raged out of control for weeks in greece before they were brought under control. the sports news now there has been a big upset at the men's basketball, woke up in the philippines, germany studying the us, winning by just 2 points to reach their 1st world cup final front. wagner lead the way for germany. the orlando magic guards 22 points made a huge contribution to his teams with germany now play serbia and sundays final and have already bettered their previous best to 3rd place from way back in 2002. the us missed the final for the 2nd tournaments in a row. i just see right there the players. they certainly were overjoyed at the results, but the head coach was careful to keep his feet on the ground, the head of sundays. fine, no, offensively were i thought we were the good the 1st of all we had some work to do. i didn't think we were physical enough. i didn't think of resistance was good

enough. we gave up too many easy baskets. we made a couple adjustments. um, sometimes it works. sometimes it doesn't. i think it helped us in the 3rd quarter. well the players enjoy this tonight and tomorrow morning we when we wake up with is over. we're not feeling good about it. we've moved on. we're getting ready for sunday. don't party too early the message from the coach they are. with the 6 invictus games are being held in dusseldorf, germany, the paralympics board, event features wounded or traumatized, and war veterans and other emergency service members from 21 countries. the invictus gains were founded like in 2014, by britain's prince harry himself, a former soldier, to give more visibility and recognition to injured veterans dw corresponded for you on north schmidt. a german competitor. ah, ah, there's not much time left now for

a fund cleaned and back to improve on his serve. the 56 year old federal police officer is part of germany's invictus team. in the lead up to the event, the german athletes hoping to find 2 and begging funk linden beck has played table tennis for funds since his childhood. until recently, however, he has never been particularly skilled at it yet. thanks to the professional coaches at this training camp, that's finally changing something back from brooklyn. if you were in playing professionally or in the club already, you realize how are you are improving here. and that gives you a sense of achievement. that in turn also helps you cope with your p t s. d. on the phone. all 30 a team members have been wounded soldiers or in the emergency services. only few have visible scars fund, like most of the team members has p t as the as posttraumatic stress disorder was triggered in 2019 while the federal police officer was deployed to i've got his

time. during that time he witnessed several tragedies which all left denmark. it's not this, not the embrace, big job brings back bad memories. it reminds me this one of when my phone, my boss killed himself. franklin deck was among the 1st to find the corpse. done by moving to the inside window, rolled him over. i saw everything. what a person looks like after shooting himself in the head. i can still see that picture in my mind at all. a few months after that incident, a suicide bomber blew himself up right next to the german camp and couple funds survived the attack on skates and at least physically but back home, he quickly realized that all those tragic events had taken their toll. i said to you, i'm going to move with i was sitting here in my living room watching tv in the hall for my wife was in the kitchen and accidentally dropped a plate or a cup and a split. second later, i was already away from the table,

trying to are myself and put on my protective fast. so it wasn't quite obvious my body around the my mind was still uncomfortable and reacted to the way it should have your exit over there. i just couldn't dump it now the and victor's game. so i suppose to give all the participants a big boost to help them cope with the injuries. but also to increase recognition for all the men and women who have been injured in the line of duty. the driver with the rugby world cup is kicking off with a host france facing new zealand. now of all the african teams only defending champion south africa have made their mark in the game. but 37 other countries are part of the rugby african federation. and it's present believes that the teams have a bright future on your hand is book erupt enough to south africa as 2019 while cub wayne. but they have more teams in africa than just the spring box. 36 other

countries are members of administrative buddy, rugby, africa, will fight for our rights. we will tell you that uh, the high performance financial scheme for rewarding countries. the models, the do not work in favor of africa. i will do those fights with weld rugby all day long. the rocky paste each european country $4700000.00 euro is to promote the sport, but south africa sides of the remaining $36.00 african countries must split just $1900000.00. yours a year between them. but the big money in rock fee is made by private organize competitions, like the $6.00 nations, the huge money. and we'll do that. and how we break into that private members club is, is a church, the one that we need to get as much that glass, how full we go to take it up to the top and see what do we create? how do we position ourselves in africa? 7, the side rock fee is play,

much more often than the $50.00 decide version at the wells camp in france. it'd be the problem is the sporting development and the organization of regular computations. it just is not the money to know to say an average of a $1000.00 pay as to move anybody anywhere within africa. whereas in europe, long term booking you can move somebody from dublin to london for for secret service. then so once increased investments and interest, new stadiums, more professionalism, new sponsorship models, and more support from weld rugby we need to be able to be strong in terms of where we negotiate and position ourselves politically. we then, well, drag me politically within governments, within a course, i forget it as a global way. and we, we need to set a global standard of, uh, which is what we're doing. don't drop it,
