that 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 landscape the 1st time speaking inside 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 russia's veto power. he accused the when of failing to meet its founding purpose and called for russia to be stripped of its permanent seats. i'm gonna call for lation berlin and this is the day the most of the world recognizes the truth about this was rushed to the invasion of

youth grade in clear violation of united nations chart that a international law says lots of it is a criminal and unprovoked aggression by russia, against our nation executive raising your political tensions of the vision. so that's an egregious roles, the daily team increasingly look, we have to sit at, i'm a boy should recognize that the un finds itself instead block on matters of aggression and creating the features, the lower, the 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 really soon acts as he's changing the u. k. is commitment to fine and climate change to give people longer to adapt to rise and costs. it sounds very confident that what we're doing is right, because not only do we have these while 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 followed him or 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 frame, ukraine's defense of its territory. of defending the u. when's founding principles? they also spoke about reforming the world body. an issue important to many states in the global south 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 sent out or stamp 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 those in a nation that 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 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 is 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, the security council, how important was this for zalinski 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. life is much before i'm done from just getting a getting there, so it was on video conference for months and of course use do unfortunately very efficiently. those kind of an unplugged even does about a rumbling development because the russian delegation of dr. dig into romped his speech. so the president and the normal are being here where to slide the chairmanship to basic and address them that i gave him not to interfere into, into the, excuse me, moms but still the whole event that's 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 and 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 go get to the rush of naval blockade of the lexi. this is called this closing costs and the shortages, and it's some places say man in gone to the low cells. so that asking means to mitigate the diplomatic damage done by it by the russians broken by the russians located and its negative consequences often security. so there is a bond to the triangle funds if on that. and besides course, zalesky also needs to find more allies for ukraine in the u. n. when it comes to voting. and also when it comes to providing you can be extra material support and other very important meeting ged will not be the most solves. but the thing,

i mean by all of you as well. this was again, the 1st person that meeting of the, of the to the door since the beginning of the war. the does have not been disclosed . that's both sides regard this. we think it's a fairly important law that we're over a year and a half into this for is a likely to score any points with the countries that haven't yet throwing their weight behind them. this is something that is very hard to turn into the phones. however, 1st of my presence, but also important, it will give the opportunity both of the discussions also about such topics which are advisable to discuss even on the secure data communication chiles. so by the results of these meetings may become visible or they just found something later done. then after our meeting today at one to press in the previous, i'm going to press on what expert commentary so far we got the last case to be something highly successful. he traveled to the us. so 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? this is just for the bottles on, excuse me. because the comfortable, sensitive 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 as back in the slow progress of the counter offensive, made it easy to do the decrease or best and support, very comfortable because financial and most important that made it very simple. so brokerage bundles and ask emission also to address these fields these concerns. and they showed the most important international partners that yes, they've gone through offensive is going on slowly, but this will risk. hm. let's talk about one important partner, poland, and the relationship with this very important ally is showing signs of stress today

or so. someone keeps ambassador, but 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 the very dense, very heated environment in the, in bowden. and the pre election binds us motor tensions with neighboring countries get besides easily. the article or debate is about the you lifted the bad when you get in and i've been carter and imports of food. and in addition to hungry and some other countries, you need let the, the bose, the bad in order to protect its own of the cartridge door. because cheap, you clean and every got, you know, products that have made and very hot tobacco kind of competition. most of the boyish products and because you can shop, introduce us to move this ukranian criticism has become part of decides into already over heated boyish domestic part of the call at environment. however,

being the use of a doctor to the evening. and it looks like the both sides made steps to meet the game 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. so don't usually get much face time with each other. they 3 saw to formerly a strange leaders break the eyes after more than a decade of frosty relations is rarely prime minister benjamin netanyahu and his turkish counterpart, ridge of type arrow 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. turkey's been on a charm offensive and roofing years trying to expand its influence in the middle east side as seen on cra, reaching out to historical rivals such as egypt, u, a. e, and saudi arabia. turkeys relations with israel broke down in 2010. after is rarely commandos launched a deadly assault on the turkish ship. lobby more mar on which was attempting to deliver aid to the gaza strip. 10 turkish activists died in the attack 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 you 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. it seems to be a return in some ways to the earliest years of everyone's 10 years turkey's prime minister and which turkey was a very active player in the middle east. from diplomacy and trying to be a problem solver and troubleshoot or for the region. so 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 they are here that is most important is the united states because the united states that has much to offer the saudis in return, we're 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 advanced industrial economy in the region and would span to gain from gain from we're regional integration. okay, so they're not looking for a piece of turkey. they're looking for money basically a bit. that's it. that's precisely what story is it. the turks have a made a very significant turnaround gear. however, in their efforts to normalize their relations with what these realize in particular the present and everyone in private is going to to know how long to avoid each other. and the normalization between these 2 countries has rude and shepherded by israel's president. as a crypt saw, 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 used the u. n. stage to, to really condemn and the harsh is terms of israel's, israel's treatment of the palestinians. is that likely to change? now? 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 housekeeping 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 the power steering 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 meeting between the modern marbury incident and the thong of relations between the 2, these roads have moved on and develop relations with important countries in the gulf, including savvy re giving you a tightens it's ties with grease and cypress, as well as continues to further develop its relations with egypt, demonstrating that tricky was not as critically strategically important to israel as so might have belief. 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, the look you go, well if the aired one follows the script that he followed after he came to power in 2003, which he developed his relations, the turkey's relations with his role at the same time trying to be constructed the actor in fostering peace in the region is however,

he turns once again into kind of very, very strong rhetoric about his really conduct in the west bank or the gaza strip. it's likely not to go any way. i think the constraining back during the air one is, is believe that a warming of relations between israel and turkey will lead to better relations between washington and all correct. 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, cal somehow get a break in washington, i think he's miscalculating there and he missed apprehends the power of,

of jewish groups 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 of 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 and 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 to let us to the last strength and the agency monitoring deforestation

and rolled back some of his predecessors anti environmental policies. the w has been following the progress on reinforce protection there. and we can now, i will 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, what my process, i think tasks throughout my whole 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 units. thank you. but this is only possible without constant presence at every moment 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 the police for me to especially in areas where there are primary forests in areas of the legal mining or within indigenous to 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 it fine. under toward the inspector is also find freshly felt trees here, india, that the boy and the dentist territory lift the wash out of people and also isolated people's like the a was who depend on nature to survive games. the mice thought this. so we want more protection and we want the world to learn from the prism of paying them my we can change the well by protecting the rain forest man corporate this. so that helps maintain the balance in the face of climate change too much i or 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 to left behind a motorcycle which will be seized. and just like this cracking down and illegal activities step by step it 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 secondhand. we're lining our approach with countries like germany, phones, spain, it's lee, 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 of 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 finding 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 insist. 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 fil charlotte. long time. no, see the whole world is working to ramp up climate action in the u. k as going the other way. how is to next announcement going down at home for a small, sorry,

austin, the sea sick is in the auto industry and in the green movement, united in condemnation. the stock 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 has 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, some ways that they weren't even recognize themselves, that 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, it 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,

that, 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 coffee itself. well, you mentioned that number of his own policy saying this could be the biggest mistake of his career. so, and losses out. so 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 or well, there will be some that say that this is just part of the firm and it says own personal philosophy needs been described as being a little bit more neat, full on climates, a decline this agenda, didn't others. but as you will, so i mentioned barry's 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 and on the opposition in particular, described this made is a desperate attempt to, to windows is a gamble. if you like, roll the dice to try and convince others is to, to go to them. so it keeps missing the days 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 yet. 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 as 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 sorts of really shapes the policies on the climate on this just to explain gives you the backgrounds, the conservative 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 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 says is showing that this will be a success with devices in the widest general election 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 parts and labor of already come mountains and roll back the prime minister these to the on the, on the vehicle. so it will have to see how this is laid 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 you 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 came last is click like a leadership position on, on the actions of charlotte chosen pill and lemon. great to have you back to advertise, 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 comp, and i hope see you again tomorrow. bye. thanks for doing the
