it was all eyes on ukraine's president today as he addressed the united nations security council in new york. not only was it the landscapes 1st time speaking in selling the chamber, it was also a rare opportunity for him to confront russia directly calling out the russian aggressor. while looking, one of food eastman ride in the eye, the ones most powerful body had convened to discuss the upholding of the un charter and ukraine, and it was precisely that power zalinski called into question, paralyzed by a rush as veto power. he accused the un of failing to meet its founding purpose and called for russia to be stripped of its permanent seat. i'm gonna call for elation berlin and this is the day the most of the world recognizes the truth about this was rushed to the invasion of

these great things, cleared, violation of united nations chart that a international law says let's it is a criminal and unprovoked regression. by russia, against our nation executive raising your political den sims of the vision. so that's an egregious role, stability in producing the nucleus, so that i'm, i'm appreciate, recognize that the un finds itself instead, lock on matters of aggression and creating it fissions the load increasingly multi point of loose. the human kind no longer rests its hopes on the un when it comes to the defense of the suffering folders of nations. also on the day, british prime minister originally. so now it says he's changing the u. k. is commitment to find in climate change to give people longer to adapt, to rise in costs. so i'm very confident that what we're doing is right, because not only do we have these wall of leading targets, we're actually just doing it in

a better way that will bring the country along with us and say families, thousands of pounds. and there's nothing watering down about that. welcome to the day, it's good to have you with us. we begin at the united nations in new york, where ukrainian president boulevard zalinski addressed the security council for the 1st time in person. since russia invaded his country in february of last year, the security council has meant many times since then, but has so far failed to take any action because russia, as a permanent member, holds a veto. wearing his signature army greenville, lensky framed ukraine's defense of its territory as defending the u. when's founding principles? he also spoke about reforming the world's body. an issue important to many states in the global south with zalinski focus mainly on russia, which he accused of undermining international norms meant to protect the entire world. especially through its power to block the security council from taking meaningful action. a little guy because it has an or stem veto power in the hands

of the aggressor is walters pushed the us and into a deadlock. not all of them you accumulate. you switch today, no matter what nation, you might be. not seeing a nation with hundreds of millions of people are a small nation need both in the nation, the bravely defends its independence. there's probably a country whose long history of independence can help others, almost states in need of help or a nation that could provide some genuine support about the state relying on its ami or a state considering the un charter, but not the as its 1st. and last line of defense that you have in the system, regardless of who you all know, the current and un system still makes you less influential than the veto power possessed by a few misuse by one russia. that's used to the detriment of all of the you and members in gym. so then i'm on onrush rods is a senior fellow with the security and defense program at the german council on

foreign relations. he joins us now from buddha, fast mr. right? it's good to see you again and quite the show down there at the security council. how important was this for? is the lensky for service? can you spell the really high importance? first and foremost, this was the 1st opportunity since the beginning of the war. he was able to make it a person i to the u. n. and could address divert soon to you and get some right live. this is much before i'm done from just getting a gift. getting dennis was on video conference for months and of course he was do unfortunately very efficiently. those kinds of unplugged even does the rumbling development because the russian delegation tried to interrupt his speech. so president and the normal are being here where to slide the chairmanship to basic and the address and that i gave him not to interfere into, into the, excuse me, mind. but still the whole event that's a very valid from the perspective of the president. and now beyond today's meeting,

this entire week in new york, zalinski is very much on a mission to conquer hearts and minds, especially in the global south. what's he, what is he hoping to get there? service the foremost, i mean when it comes to come to the global solves the fact that ukraine is still unable to export. most of these, i do got you to a good good to the rush of naval locate of the lexi. this is called, this is closing costs in the full shortages, and there's some places fame and in gone through the low cells. so it's asking me to mitigate diplomatic damage done by it, by the russians broken by the russians located and its matter please go see press one for security. so there is a balance of the tribal funds if on that. and besides course, then ask you also needs to find more that lives for you great into you and when it comes to voting. and also when it comes to providing you can be extra material support and other very important medium ged will not be the most solves. but the

thing i mean by out of the as well. this was again, the 1st person that meeting of the, of the to the door since the beginning of the war. the just have not been disclosed . that's both sides regard this meeting as a fairly important law. yeah. that were over a year and a half into this war is a likely to score any points with the countries that haven't yet throwing their weight behind them. this is something that it's very hard to turn into the laws, however, burst in my presence, but also, but it will give the opportunity both of the discussions also about such topics which are advisable to discuss even on secure data communication and jobs. so by the results of these meetings may become visible or they just found somebody lead or down the depth chart meeting today at one to press in the create a new side for the press. and what expert commentary so far regarding the last case tape, something highly successful, he traveled to the us while the counter offensive back home continues to make only

slow progress. is this leading to you frames international in physician becoming more more complicated or even deteriorating? or just the bottles honest these mission because to come through extensive have been progressing much lower than many in the west, oregon where he didn't come to the south with have assumed or quote in the beginning of the summer. the b gets fee or ukraine has. and this is this us back in the slow progress of the counter offensive, made it easy to do the decrease or best and support everybody's comfortable because financial and most important, they made it very simple. so properties bundles and ask emission also to address these fields these concerns and they showed the most important international thought never did. yes, they've gone through offensive is going on slowly, but this will risk. hm. let's talk about one important partner, poland. the relationship with this very important ally is showing signs of stress to day or so some and keeps in bassett or that what's going on there as well. this

is a very special situation because boeing is approaching collections in a few weeks from now. so this is very dense, very easy to the environment in the, in bowden. and the pre election binds us motor tensions with neighboring companies get besides, easily. the particular debate is about the you lifted the band when you gain and i didn't carter and imports a boat. and in addition to hungry and some other countries, you need the, the bulls, the band in order to protect its own of the cartridge aspect. or because cheap you clean and agriculture products have made and very hot tobacco kind of competition. most of the body shop products. and because you can shop, introduce us to move this ukranian criticism has become part of decides into already overheated voice. domestic part of the cold environment, however,

based on the use of the another to the evening. and it looks like the both sides made steps to mitigate dimensions and kind of june down the situation back to the level 5 more the technical levels. so address routes of the german council on foreign relations. thank you so much. so it's great to get your input. thank. are you in general assembly as sometimes nickname, speed dating for diplomats because it offers a chance for informal run ends and meetings, even between representatives and politicians who don't usually get much face time with each other. they 3 saw to formerly streams leaders break the eyes after more than a decade of frost. your relations is rarely prime minister benjamin netanyahu, and his turkish counterpart ridge of type aired on held their 1st ever meeting today as a fringes of the un general assembly. they discussed israel's efforts to normalize relations with saudi arabia and closer cooperation and fields including energy

technology and cyber security. target has been on a charm offensive and recent years trying to expand its influence in the middle east side as seen on cra, reaching out to historical arrival, such as egypt, u, a. e, and saudi arabia. turkeys relations with israel broke down and 2010. after is rarely commandos launched a deadly assault on the turkish ship. lobby more mar um which was attempting to deliver aid to the gaza strip. pen turkish activist died in the attempt by lateral ties remained on ice for over a decade as a result. but the 2 countries have sought refreshment. in recent times, stephen cook is a senior fellow at the council on foreign relations and an expert on the middle east. he joins us tonight from washington, dc. good to see a yesterday or to on said he'd step up diplomacy to end the war and ukraine today. is endorsing normalization between israel and saudi arabia to lower tensions in the middle east. there doesn't seem to be

a conflict these days. turkey doesn't want to be seen as solving what's erred on the game plan here, as well. that seems to be returned in some ways to the earliest years of the area. once 10 years took his prime minister and which turkey was a very active player in middle east from diplomacy and trying to be a problem solver and troubleshooter for the region. i. everyone is definitely looking to repair those relations, but he damaged in subsequent years. and this is the result of whether leaders like benjamin to to y'all or the savvy leadership actually trust air to one is a different story. a lot has happened since those earliest days of air. the ones that rule in turkey could turkey be instrumental in reaching a deal with saudi arabia? i don't think so. the place here, sir, that is most important is the united states because the united states that has much to offer the saudis in return for normalizing with israel. what the turks are

looking to get out of any normalization is, is it generally or greater integration into the region so that they can benefit economically despite turkeys economic problems at the moment it really is perhaps next to is the most that in advanced industrial economy, in the region and would stand to gain from gain from were regional integration. okay, so they're not looking for a piece of turkey. they're looking for money, basically. it best that's precisely what story is it. the turks have made a very significant turn around gear. however, in their efforts to normalize their relations with what these rallies in particular present and everyone in private is going to to now have long avoided each other. and the normalization between these 2 countries has rude and shepherded by israel's president as a crypt shop rather than prominence turned it in. yeah, the turks believe that this will help in, in washington dc inter hm. is this,

this close to being of ties, or this thawing that we're seeing is this likely to have an effect on turkey's policies towards the palestinians because he's previously use the un stage to, to really condemn and the harsh is terms, israel's, israel's treatment of the palestinians is that likely to change now, as it seems unlikely that everyone is going to give up the palestinians. he's proving himself to be a pragmatist on a variety of issues. but tuscany, an issue, something that he does very, very strongly about. it's possible that he'll turn down his rhetoric, but you know, one is really attacking the gaza strip. will change the tenor of, of air to once public statements. for now, however, he is interested in normalizing relations with these rows while at the same time uh, pressing these rallies on palestinian issue. of course, he has the trick carefully because it is aired,

one who's really sought the normalization of relations and in the 10 years between 2010. as you mentioned in your reading between the modern marbury incident and the following are relations between the 2. these rows have moved on and develop relations with important countries in the gulf, including saudi arabia, the u. a titans, it's ties with greece and cyprus, as well as continues to further develop its relations with egypt. demonstrating that tricky was not as critically strategically important to as well as so might have delete. now this seems like another a tight rope act by turkey, doesn't it? there's always the dance between nato and russia, and now we're seeing, you know, the fine with israel and sticking by the palestinians. can this go well as well to go? well, if everyone follows the script that he followed after he came to power in 2003, which he develops is relations. the turkeys relations with his role at the same time trying to be constructed. actor in fostering piece in the region is however,

he turns once again to kind of very, very strong rhetoric about his really conduct in the west bank or the cost of strips. it's likely not to go any way. i think the constraining factor in the air one use his believe that a warming of relations between israel and turkey will lead to better relations between washington and uncle. i'm not sure that that's actually accurate. there is a long list of differences between the turkish and american governments that have absolutely nothing whatsoever to do it. israel. but keep in mind that president aired one comes from and this one is background and it is 10 to see the world in a certain way. and they tend to see that jews are powerful in washington. and as a result by warming relations with israel, who somehow get a break in washington, i think he's miscalculating there and he missed apprehends the power of,

of jewish scripts and pro israel lobbies in washington. yeah. and the relationship between israel and washington is also not the best at this moment in time. steven cook from the counts exactly, relations and thank you so much. my pleasure. the world leaders have also been meeting for a special summit on climate change on the sidelines of the un general assembly, but there is a twist. the only ones allowed to speak are those who bring new and meaningful action to the table. that's on orders from you and secretary general antonio gutierrez. he's convened what he calls a no nonsense climate ambition summit of aims to highlight trailblazers and prod polluters into reducing emissions. b one isn't saying yet. who can and cannot speak a one success story as brazil we're logging in, the amazon has fallen dramatically. president losing us a little of the silver strength and the agency monitoring deforestation and rolled

back some of his predecessors anti environmental policies. the w has been following the progress on greenforest protection there, and we can now have a look. it's the amazon rain forest here has all but disappeared. and brazil's northeastern state of modern young, 72 percent of the force has been raised down. and it is up to these environmental officers to protect what's left by professor. i think, darcy, good. how's my? i'm holding the thing is to try and stop on authorize the for the station and the invasion of protected areas, such as indigenous tenants raise and conservation unit. but this is only possible without constant presence at every month to inspect, as must take tons to try and ensure that deforestation is decreased. as you make the officers from brazil's environmental protection agency, obama rely on satellite information to choose what locations they will inspect. once they get there, they faced many hurdles in this area,

73 hector's of trees have been cut down. the challenge finding out who is behind this destruction and holding them accountable while i'm the police for me to especially in areas where there are primary forests in areas of a legal mining or within indigenous tenant trim. saying that that tends to be more problematic. that the officers collect more information by talking to local residents following these leads. they locate a traitor who may be the owner of the land, just inspected. he denies the evidence shown in the images, but if he's proven to be responsible, he will have to pay a fine under toward the inspector is also find freshly felled trees. here, india, that the boy indigenous territory lift the garage out of people and also isolated peoples like the a what would depend on nature to survive getting in my study. so we want more protection and we want the world to learn from the opinions on my we can change the world by protecting the rain forest man corporate this. so that helps maintain the

balance in the face of climate change too much. i. in this case, the officers came just in time to scare away the legal temper. steve, the person slowing down the trees heard the inspector's cars approaching and fled. he left behind a motorcycle which will be seized and just like this cracking down and illegal activities step by step. if almost environmental officers hope to protect the amazons, biodiversity i'm announcing today that we're going to ease the transition to electric vehicles. you'll still be able to buy petrol and diesel calls and vans until 2035, even off to that, you'll still be able to buy. and 2nd time, we're lining our approach with countries like germany from spain, display, australia, canada, sweden, and us states such as california, new york and massachusetts. i'm still ahead of the rest of america and other

countries like news even less than the british prime minister there announcing what even some m p 's of his own party are calling the biggest mistake of his premiership, richie sooner plans to change the case commitments to find in global warming, so next as people will not be forced to switch to greener forms of heating starting in 2035. and as you have written, some precious plans to switch from petrol and diesel cars to electric by 2030 irving delayed to 2035. so not in 5th, the stats do not amount to watering down britain's climate goals. critics say the steps are motivated by fears of a voter backlash against expensive green policies at next year's general election. that's bringing our london corresponding show and show some field charlotte long time. no, see the whole world is working to ramp up climate accident. the u. k. is going the other way. how is due next announcement going down at home? it was not very often the easiest thing is in the auto industry and

in the green movement, united in condemnation. but that is what we've seen today that's been in for, for lots criticism of these. and now since now the prime minister receives soon said that they are a pragmatic approach. she's making it to a population facing a cost of living crisis, big a financial buttons at the moment. and he's saying that this is expensive. have some ways that they weren't even recognize themselves yet. he's saying that these people will need to be taken by the hands to catch on board is net 0 goals as a be reached to that. he's huffman critics. so saying that not only will this have major environmental impacts, they will also have economic impacts which will hit those very same, watching people that pointing to the fact that a not taking action a so the climate will have major economic consequences. further down the line

side, of course is a big risk that's uh that is being faced here. so that's why the consumers put, susan also has an appointment. this is a policy itself. well, you mentioned that number of design policies. things could be the biggest mistake of his career, so and losses out. so you say, all right, so the energy industry doesn't like of the car industry, doesn't like it. the opposition doesn't like it. and even some members of his own party don't like it. why is he really doing as well there will be some that say that this is just part of the fun and it says own personal philosophy needs been described as being a little bit more neat, full on climate deployments agenda than others. but as you will, so i mentioned barry's this, this big issue of an election inspected by the end of next year. now his policy, the concepts of policy very,

very much training in the polls. there are some who say, well, who describes among the opposition in particular describes this made is the desperate attempts to, to win. both is a gamble, if you like, roll the dice to try and convince americans to, to go to them. since she's missing the day that being hubs, and they say they're concerned about the financial crisis. so whether or not he will win round faces remains to be seen those. yeah. how do people feel about the net 0 goals for $20.50? is this actually an issue people care about? can this be enough to save the tories at the next election? well, it is. uh, as they, uh, they are very behind the opposition labor policy at the moment. now the conservative policy has been informed by a local election that happened earlier this year. and it,

it might just seem like local politics. and in fact, it sort of really shape their policies on the climate on this just to explain give you the backgrounds, the cause of the conservation. so you're not supposed to have a surprise when and another to election uninstalled since the fact that they came up very hard against the policy in the area fixing its whole on the nice emissions generating vehicles. has one big facts, are not that thoughts are really influence the thinking on this, whether or not. so that who play out is showing that this will be a success with devices in the widest general that really is very, very unclear it. and then what it does do is puts a complaint actually a dividing line between the 2 biggest parties of the subject, hockey and the lady party labor of already come mountains and roll back the prime minister the to the on the on the vehicle. so it will have to see how this plays out. we only have about half a minute left,

but i do want to get to some fact checking because so next said, britain is leaving the world on cutting carbon emissions. is there any truth to that? certainly helping u. k wanted to position itself out of 5 since 1990 emissions of down more than any of the other large quantities in the g 7. so there is some success that there's been a lot of criticism, particularly of late since the, the possible reaching climate goals is not being met. in fact, that was pretty different from the governments. missy say you can't last. it's split like for me to say a position on the find the actions of charlotte chosen fill in lemon. great to have you back after time. but make sure to stay informed. stay engaged and stay in touch. you can follow us on twitter or find us online. our web address is d, w dot com, and i hope see you again tomorrow, bye. thanks for doing the
