the, the, this is the, the news coming to live from berlin. the pleasure of the long term backing for ukraine moves against the signs of security agreement with the block. the europe says last as long as it takes for ukraine to regain control of its territory. also coming up, hundreds of kenyan police officers are in haiti to lead a multinational force against the gangs, terrorizing the country. viewing back mission is building, thanks from haitians. bend is set to expire. plus donald trump prepares to go go head to head with joe biden and the 1st debate us presidential election campaign . but many voters say they're not keen on either

the law. i'm terry martin. good to help you with this european union and ukraine have signed a security agreement. ukraine's present blog. ms. lensky sealed the deal with you leaders at the start of the summit in brussels. it's meant to assure support for ukraine in the future as it continues as battle against russia for presidents the landscape. this summit marks the formal start to talks about ukraine itself becoming a member of the year as well. our process bureau chief, alexander phenomena is following the summit. i asked her how important today's deal is for ukraine. it is very important for kids to have this deal with the european union. president lensky told us here that he's hoping that this agreement will

advance peace and prosperity in europe. and it comes with big action points, including the promise by the european union to continue providing ukraine with military and financial assistance with the promise to prosecute russian war crimes . to provide civilian health for you claim to rebuild the country. once award is over and all of that is coming with assurances that ukraine is on the right pause to was a membership in the european union. and zalinski told us here that this is towards people leave new queen with full just on the battlefield. want to hear, so it is important, but in terms of we'll secuity guarantees. i would say it's much of that symbolic importance because of course, as you know that you opinion does not have an army of its own. and the foreign policy, it's still being decided in the european capitals. so you kind of compare this deal

with to, for instance, the agreements that kid has signed when the u. s. bots, ukraine, in the past months, has been able to secure a number of the secuity agreements with individual countries. let's have a closer look at that war rages in ukraine. 27 months after russia's invasion, ukraine's been running short of soldiers, high munition, and money president for a lot of them is a landscape been trying to fix that and generate commitments for support after the war is over, traveling relentlessly to sign security agreements. he's met with western leaders across europe in recent weeks. so lansky has signed 17 bilateral deals so far. germany agreed to a 10 year security agreement, pledging equipment including hair defense muscles,

as well as health rebuilding months of the conflict is over. france signed a similar 10 year deal, helping with training, sending jet fighters, military vehicles and missiles, but also promising to help ukraine against future attacks. and to reform is the 2 options in belgium is the landscape secured pledges for dozens of f. 16 fighters. this all came as ukraine's biggest backer of the us, also signed a 10 year deal guaranteeing military assistance. the deals with individual countries are met, not just to beef up ukraine's military, but also to strengthen cooperation. preparing the way for membership one day in nato and the you the block and it's member countries. i've already provided support worth nearly $110000000000.00 since the war started of the for ukraine, the stakes couldn't be higher, no longer how long the war lasts. it will eventually need to rebuild its shattered

infrastructure and make sure it can to turbo tax in the future. alexandra, that you, some of that today is ongoing. we're expecting decisions from member states on the european union's top jobs, the big jobs and the institutions. are there likely to be any surprises today? well treat you and i, we have covered a lot of some, it's like this one and we know that everything is sealed and sure only when somebody like this one is over so they can be surprises. i mean we have to split the memory agreement on the top jobs, but there are readers, 1st and foremost the tell them prime minister, georgia maloney who are not very happy because they think they should have been consulted more ahead of this meeting at her party made gains in the european election and she would like to have a bigger stay on the top jobs because of all the hon given prime and stuff already

said he is not happy either about what will they do when they sit at the table with other leaders to decide on that, and in addition, we have to say that you don't need all the leaders to be on the same page. you just need 20 of them 20 countries to agree on at the top jobs. so i think it's likely that they will be in agreement, but we will know it when we see the press release or somebody coming out of the meeting and announcing that the suite of jobs has, has been agreed upon. as under thank you. that was our brussels bureau chief, alexandra from no you're in germany. the dispute has broken out over whether unemployed ukrainian refugees should be allowed to stay. some of the conservative opposition want them sent back to ukraine, but that sparked a backlash with many ukrainian saying they want to work in germany, but the numerous restrictions make it difficult to do so.

alexys been working as a technician in the berlin hotel since 2022, shortly after he fled to ukraine. it's a job he's overqualified for, but glad to have out of. but for me, issue sure. can. as for me, what means i can be a real citizen and the city has this time. is truly am i doing my best for the economy yourself? the jews are stopped. lexi is in the minority around 22 percent of the working h. ukrainian refugees in germany. have a drop. now. i like send a doable in a senior figure in the conservative position as calling for unemployed ukrainian refugees to be sent back. he's been widely content. that's the focus, but i'm blank. i really see a populace on, on the back of mothers. and can i select the russian a tech with a small children? i'm looking for loans and it's not really cut off job to help those very people get

jobs in germany. she finds thrilled when statement problematic as the ones always in the ones that you shouldn't put the move on to blanket suspicion. in my opinion, all ukrainians have become an objective. and these are different cases and different people. i know that she some are quicker on the labor market and others of slower on the labor market from lunch time and quickly to others, both slowly and a long time off. really cover help or look, see, find his job. she says there are other hurdles from childcare to long waits for ukrainians to have the qualifications recognized by german or far a t. somebody needs to longer if we didn't wait so long, it didn't take so long to process for free fund quicker models to enable nursery school teachers to work quickly in kindergarten. then we would have seen much fossil labor market entry all finished it up as well for introducing for lexi knows there's 2. well, he trained as an accountant and ukraine,

but has been waiting for months for his diploma to be recognized. nothing is addicted. i want to develop myself spanish, and if my experience as a technician isn't good enough, then i'll try working as an accountant. i will go to the advisor and look at it, but it's people like him that the economy is crying out for and the mood among the ukrainian community is that with a few tweaks to the system that could lead to more alexys spoke earlier about this with probably on the phone cuz he's a member of the german parliament for the governing social democrats. he told us what he thinks of that proposal to send you crazy and refugees back to their country if they don't find work here in germany. i think this statement is a shame for germany and also a shame for talking about holds christianity and also in the name. and i think when you look at the ukraine, you'll see that there every night,

5 columns of missiles and we've been towns too. and also some of the uptake, i think it's our obligation to help our neighbors on there and also to help people come here. and of course also help them to find the job. but in this situation where this is all happening, i'm talking about sending them back. i think it's totally wrong and to something that plays twitching also in his hands. it's true, however, that roughly a 1000000 of the roughly 1000000 ukrainians who came to germany because of the russian invasion uh only about 20 percent of those have found work. uh how do you explain that? i think especially when you look at those numbers, you have to see who these people are. we have a lot, a lot of people, the theme from the ukraine that are all and you have a lot of people fleeing from your train, but also mothers but lives in the children. and so i think it was really important that we make the position and also for those people getting able to work. and i think this is where we need to get better to bring more also ukrainian refugees

into work to have like childcare for them to be able to also have that diploma ready for use in jimmy. and i think these are things that needs to be done and also with the measures we've taken in the last month we did. and also 2 of those numbers of people looking at your, from your train. and i think this will be 6 will in the future that your party leads germany's government. i'm just wondering what sort of level of employment among the ukranian refugees would you like to see? and y has your party not managed to get more ukrainian refugees? and so labor market, yeah. so see i don't, i'm not really. so it's like making a number out is really important because these are all individual people and you have to the case by case how to have this people getting into work. i think it needs to be a lot more even then when you look at your foot was day longer in germany, and i think this is obvious and, and therefore, and yet we need to do

a lot. we need to do a lot more than gratian and also when it comes to providing language courses. when it comes to providing child care, all those things needs to be done. and of course, it was a big challenge when 1000000 people in such a short time from what happened to be a come to another. and therefore, it is really odd to me, is the country of the most, the people from the x rays. i'm seeing here and so yeah, i think we did a lot in the last uh, 12 and 24 months. but i think it needs to be a lot more to when it comes to making those people able to work and, and also having them access to the infrastructure that they need. now, immediately after the war began in ukraine, the german government waived the requirement for ukrainians. to apply for asylum automatically gave them the right to stay in the country and receive unemployment benefits. couldn't this continue, mr. focus? do you think, even if the war goes on for years to come? so when you look at the definition with a refugee sauce, then these are people's lean from wall and other stuff. and i think nobody,

without that this one you train and also i would deeply not share the few products out over in saying there are like secure parts of your brain within your brain. when you look at how the was forbes and you see all those missiles, thrones, and things like that, and suspect to austin waste and ukraine, and therefore, i would think that no doubt would right now that there's one your brain. and i think that we should can also have other people lean for walking from a neighboring country and you train. and therefore i would really say that everybody that says the safe and you train it should really go there by himself. that's household situation. there is because it is the case, but this help and these things of the necessary to take these people to mr poker. thank you very much for taking time to talk with us today. that was german lawmaker probably on the phone. now the hate to you were hundreds of canyon police officers

arrived this week of the start of the u. n. back security emission. the kenyans touch down in port a press just as their own country faced. it's forced on rest and decades, their mission and hate the aims to curb gang violence that has overrun the country canyon troops on the haitian soil, the prime minister of haiti's, giving them a warm welcome. the countries consume to the gang violence and the government says it can bring the situation under control without for an intervention backed by the united nations. if you don't, my might be on the way to. i want to know one to doubt the purpose of the mission. we will not go by you. the state will regain power and reaffirm itself sovereignty . so all haitians, because you're not in this country, we're going to be the peacekeeping mission has been

a long time coming. the government requested help 2 years ago since then, the haitian population has been plunged into the stream poverty region. gang fights have destroyed homes, women and the girls had been kidnapped, and right. that's no surprise the patients manual with them displaced opinion of their helps on the floor in soldiers we heard and they had to fill something out because we're really in trouble. houses about town homes are set on 5 and looted and that's where we are really living here. so the last 10 months will charge more of what i believe they'll bring about to change. what people will support on the door without me going look not be i would like 100 countries to think about us and the rest may come in the same way as they think about restoring order in the country. because we have victims. and we want to have

a solution tomorrow, so the country can get back to us with the sucking the language that the people here had been living in abject poverty. for years. the situation became much worse a few months ago when the game starts. at that i can see then infrastructure like the main international airport and also haitian prisons that they do. and i didn't . nations can use the term and to restore order in haiti. we know we know and can associate with the haitian peoples aspirations for freedom. freedom for justice, just for the rule of law we comes. we came to haiti because the people of haiti liked the people everywhere else in the world. and the 47 countries where we have served as peace supporters, the people of haiti deserve peace, deserve security business and deserve sustainable development development,

kenya in the office. so, so won't be the on the forwarding presence in haiti for long. soon, troops from 15 other nations, including germany and france, will join them in the peacekeeping mission. now, moving on to the united states now or in just a few hours present, joe biden, to set the faces predecessor donald trump. in the 1st television debate ahead of this year's presidential election, it has traditionally been seen as the beginning of the real race for the white house, but many voters this time say they're not excited by either candidate i . i just wish that we had the better candidates i'm. i just think they're both not fit to run in office. we were built on diversity. it's a crying shame that this has come to. this is really the 4th time the joe biden. and donald trump need to the presidential debate. typically,

this verbal battle for the favor of voters has done this a highlight in the campaign. this time, there's a noticeable, flat crystal excitement. this, of course, has a lot to do with the age of the 2 candidates. we just heard that most americans, one, someone younger to late that countries someone they believe is capable of finding solutions for the significant challenges we face to many public appearances. neither presses inviting nor former president trump seem to have the energy nor mental fitness that voters are looking for in normal election years. the vendor is determined by their ability to convincingly sell their political agenda this year. people seem to be more focus on who will make the most mistakes and provide better fodder for engine. that means i think uh trump's gonna go on the attack on bite. and i think he's gonna hit him on a lot of lot of key things. i think biden's probably gonna be in the defense

a lot. i hope it's substantial, but they actually discuss the real issues from an international perspective. we look closely observe their stance on china, us commitment to nato, and of course, support for ukraine. however, many americans may not even watch this 1st debate. i don't really know how meaningful it would be. but you know, people who've been asking for us and so we're going to do it and they should do it . i'm not gonna watch it because what, why, right? to big grown man yelling at each other. you know, one's racists, you know, they are the ones a little too old. i'm not planning to watch it. uh, i've seen videos and both can it's talking and both of them make me pretty sad to have the biggest challenge for both candidates. and the coming months will be to, in the age, the double hater, as those who dislike both candidates and encourage them to vote in their favor

rather than up staying out of sheer frustration. well, i got, i got to say to people got a vote. they just got a vote, you know, is the who, who, who do you think is the best person for the culture? well, the debate is a major moment in the election campaign. the w. washington bureau chief of the file that report told me what's on the line tonight, a date, it's really a huge moment because this debate tonight will set the tone for the months leading up to election day on november 5th. many people, as we just heard a really not thrilled about either a candidate donald trump, i think has a good chance of kind of winning the debate if you can avoid being too aggressive because that has haunted him in previous debates. and joe biden, the sitting president, needs to appear strong in the wake of his probably pro is that the

expectations are so low. so if it just performs ok, that actually could earn him some points. the major issue for voters actually will be if they believe that either candidate is fits for another 4 years because that's at stay, right? they don't just have to be fit on november 5th or january when they got in all the rated. but that's another 4 year a time, so it will be really challenging to set the tone for each of them to really excite their possible motors to go out out and vote. so suitability for office is clearly a huge issue. a portion though is also an issue in the selection. there was a supreme court ruling on it today. tell us about that is right. so rep for doctors rights has become a top issue in the election ever since the rovers has wide roads. overturn that

since some, some 2 years ago. a that was kind of a nation wide protection of the right for abortion. and that opened a big chance for conservative lets states to come up with their own abortion loss. and many in many states, abortion law is basically banned in bed force as women to seek abortion of oceans. in other states, however, the supreme court just dismissed a case about emergency abortions in idaho, idaho. and this is temporarily allowing women in this stage to receive an abortion abortion when their health is at risk. but it's important to know that this is not a final decision, as the case has just been sent back to lower court. so i'm sure the divorce in bill play a major role in tonight's debate as well. and i understand that we're waiting uh, further ruling from the supreme court. a blockbuster decision i'm told. what is the

dns there's a couple of blog posts as best of decisions still out there the most. the most important one is definitely question is, a president, a former president, donald trump would be in june for every did everything he did during his presidency . that's a major case. we are waiting for it to be ruled on then the other question. it's all connected to the storming of the capital on january 6. and the question is, what happens to those who storm the building and how, how they can be hold accountable. so these are 2 major rulings. we still waiting for to be published maybe tomorrow, maybe in the beginning of next week in this thank you very much for bringing us up to date there. that was our washington real trees in is poll the turkish football fans or soccer fans, or some say, uh,
