the, the, this is the, the news line from ballot it's election day and the u. k. prime minister reach you soon. ok. and is conservatives off spacing heavy defense. up to 14 years of tory rolled voters. how suspected to one change and sent a label to a stomach? it's a number 10 downing street, also coming off. joe biden vows to stay in the race for the white house. the us presence tries to reassure it's all democratic t is it for re election. and his a deny he's even considering pulling up, gather plus probably can barrels lashes,

jamaica with fee is bit wins and heavy rain. the reco craig and storm is now headed full. the came in, i, the on get off is welcome to the program. its focus all heading to the polls in the you case, general election, the opposition labor of potty is the overwhelming favor it to when then and 14 years of conservative ruled from the service as soon as may the surprise cool for any elections, a decision that is projected to back 5 recent polls show voters are deeply dissatisfied with his government and curious thomas center last labor policy is on cost for a landslide victory. the cost of living at the state of the health care system among the key issues for persons still so neck is hoping that he can sway undecided

voters the whole thing on a brave face. prime minister, racist so not lead, didn't he send to? right? the conservative party in the political fight that he himself cold war and is likely to many people they want to say the result of this election is a full grown confusion. the all i believe in my bones that it is no, i think you do to. we do not surrender to labor, we will fight for every vote. we will fight for all values and we will fight for our vision of person. but this time, it seems that this vision is all to stick with what the british people want of to 14 years. in paula, the conservative so know, facing a mess of defeat is thomas sent to leslie. the party is now 20 points ahead in the polls and isn't close for victory changed labor policies. they box it up,

moving forward to a guy with a lady picked up, but that is what we're fighting for. let's continue that fight. if you will change your hop to vote for it. and this change is what the british population seems to want. service indicate vote has a most consent fall the cost of living as trained health care system and migration, which has increased in recent years. and this last issue placed into the hands of nigel thrush. and he's on to me, gratian reform who keep party the party has seen this search in support. and while it's not likely to get a significant number of seats in parliament, it will still change regions. political, let's keep but whoever gets to full the next bridge, the government will have to prove to the british public that this time, they made the right choice. and from all that time, no joined by political scientist,

professor nicholas allan and there was holloway university of london. the professor, what happened the defining moments of this election contained for you whether any have been caught up here from where she said not. now the wet announcement, when he came out into down the street and said he was going into the country doors, that was, it was very long time ago now, but his side shoulders and then reducing like full size coding show of his attendance the day collaboration with you and he's on the phone so you can imagine street, i now do fraud announcing that he was gonna run off through having said he might, i mean it's meetings that stands out to really been the negative aspects. i think keeping the pointed to the conservative things that they've really just sort of have a time that trouble recent as an office. now the labor is expected to win in a landslide, if we're looking at the poles turning away from the concert of the conservatives in

huge numbers. why is that? i think the it's a selection is curious in one way, in so far as the last time. it's invited now was naval roaming majority for the conservatives. but the scale and the concept of victory on the bar, as johnson in 2019 was it's hot leave not largely driven by the wish to get breaks it down, or just people to move on from back surprises. but also widespread concern about what's the tendency of that is the labor government to related content to then does that lead to jeremy cool being cut off. so it wasn't necessarily huge. infuse yeah, some of the conservatives in 2019. rather, it was kind of drudging wished and the, the, the thing that's happened across it since 2019, we've had events. we've had custody to be crisis. we've also had uh conservatively

to forest johnson who was embroiled in a large number of scandals. we also then briefly had the 75 minutes and this trial season blew up with the economy. so the relatively fitting supposedly concept enjoyed in in 2019 has just evaporated the consensus and the legal policy rather, is now trusted to government. i mean it as a saying that the position started with elections, governments leaves and political government don't lose elections if there was an opposition to people are willing to fight for. and that is now the case. and now if a key, as donald wakes up to them all on his way to down the street box on top of his to do list swell, he'll be braced about, then you create a tyrant. so that's one of the 1st thing that will prime minister as a told about. and he'll then get to really get on with the task performing a cabinet. and that'll be his priority to at least in the 1st day,

according to the very so the top senior people around him. it remains to be seen how many of the current shadow cabinet move directly into the corresponding government jobs. but it's likely that probably most of them will certainly, i think might rave, sees the current shot and challenge the exec. and she can probably be expected to move into a number 11 dining street. and it shouldn't be that relationship. the partnerships style, the bridge waves really sort of be that defining the $75.00 in total, nothing for the conduct to the government as a whole. and you mentioned breaks it earlier. now the you has not really features in any of the election campaign campaigns, but apparently a growing majority of britons believes that breaks it was a mistake. what do you think gustavo will do about that? us to stop? it has been very careful not to make any promises about joining the you. i think

you have to remember the traumatic effect of the brakes that process on, but politically and voters in britain they want to wants to reopen those wounds in a hurry, no government, the british government is going to contemplate any kind of reversal or breaks it until a number of years of elapsed and be there was a very, very significant majority in favor rejoining. i think the best it can be hope for, for those who is, what is that mind? it would be in favor person be joining would be essentially just place a partnership, perhaps a garage, whole shift versions wouldn't be anything to engage in. don love with the you. i think sort of rejoining the single market or anything like that is also a way of the agenda for the time being. it's not something that i think labor move on to waste any political capital on. there was more than enough in having trying to be getting on way in terms of the economy in the public services. the surgical

scientist nicholas alaniz rod holloway university in london. thank you very much. thank you. the white house says us president joe biden is not reconsidering his decision to run for another time and office by them is under increasing pressure to step aside offers poor performance and a head to debate with donald trump. last week, more top democrats have now begun to openly express their concerns about biden's ability to do the job. following a series of public stumbles in a recent months. and he has a white house, both person come in. i was on pierre responding to the new york times report suggesting biden was weighing up whether to continue his run. say is the president is moving forward. he's moving forward is being president. he's moving forward with his campaign as his campaign has been very, very clear about that. that's what i can, that's what i can speak to, and that's what i can say. and that is the president's focus. the presence focus is

how does he continue to do that? work and anything else that we're hearing or that's being reported is absolutely false. now to some of the other stories making headlines around the world at a some of the context on shine as a president. and she didn't, thing has called a members of a regional security club to resist external interference. russian president vladimir putin announced the formation of a sensitive coordinator of 60 or 2 responses. un secretary general, antonio gutierrez is also attending that summit. china is confirmed that several office citizens are dead or missing and an attack, another democratic republic of congo badging says militants targeted its chinese funded company. on wednesday it happens in the northeast region, rich and minimal result is low tax on quite common in canada. our

young people have been taken to the streets again this week. many have vowed to continue until president william root of resides, agree about the government's response to last week's protest. according to the kennedy, the human rights commission, $39.00 demonstrators, were killed and more than $360.00 inch it. in the recent interview, president wrote a defend at the work of the police and said they did nothing wrong. and that seems to have made for testers even more determined to us by the reports from nairobi. so it started off as an exciting day for david monkey. he arrived early at last week's protest and only with a water bottle. the face, my mood was cheerful. he says, i don't what's, why was taking self is with the police some challenging piece, but then the minute change. we don't want to talk on the some next to me with shots people's thoughts. i'm sure if you get to the ground, i started running, then i had to buying and i was a hit. the bullet went right through his neck. now in the hospital,

he's waiting for a 2nd operation. david one the accounts themselves lucky. protest and next to him was short in the head and later died. he doesn't regret taking part in the protest . he says he's fed up with the government because of its corruption and nepotism. i think it has a lot of problems with our educating system is broken. if it's not, won't you know, but to, you know, look at me, i graduated from university and now i'd be reduced to driving taxes. and the police still have ross of me. he graduated with a geography degree 3 years ago, but hasn't been able to find a job. it's a fate shared by many, 67 percent of 10 years young people are unemployed. he did temporary work until his mother took out a loan to buy him a motor bike. so he could work as a motor tax driver, a, somebody, somebody, we might, we just have to survive in this life. so even if you follow the rules of,

i'm fine them you still sofa? pardon? i didn't really, really autumn told me on the 19 year old able to him come out attended the same demo as david, but he never returned home. his mother says he was about to start college and was known for standing up for the less privileged i have enough to to ask you know, to fight for people's rights. and when he couldn't stand seeing people being oppressed today. yes. then people to him to mouse family wanted to hold a remember and ceremony for him, and other kids purchases were forced to change the location. police cold of the area early in the morning, feeling protests outside the hospital. this group of young people are also at risk of being disposed by the police. they spontaneously mobilized a crowd by a social media in support of the injured protest is that he had the mid july, the 10th, some of our fellow youth ways. and we had didn't know enough,

i'm glad. so you have come to have purchased has changed from being about the cost of living prices and against the tax bill. demanding justice and accountability for those killed doing. last week's deputy demonstrations, the protest as one president william brutal to resign. you, i know to you had an event that those one of us die a little bit more to come on, be much removed not to go from about the inside the hospital. david monkey is concerned about how he'll support his family if he can't work. but like the buddhist, as he remains to time, don't do that and you know, to ride a motorbike, you need your legs when they are to, i'll just have to deal with that. i will get back so i will get back to the bottom . this process. lauren, ukraine has rates for one over 2 years. the costs to both sides have been immense,

but one of the possible sport as a victory could also be what's in the ground. ukraine has choose deposits of lithium as an import mineral full batteries powering electric cause all smartphones fighting near the ukrainian village of quota hobo earlier this year. above the ground towns that have seen dozens of tank battles since the war began. what you don't see is the hundreds of millions of dollars of lithia, the geologist say is likely underground. ukraine has significant deposits of natural resources that could make rushes war financially pay off. in addition to lift yeah, but there are significant oil, gas, metal, oars, rivers, and precious metals buried beneath the soil, potentially worth more than 20 trillion dollars. lithium is a key material for the future of electric cars and many smart technologies. ukraine's deposits are located in the queue of 400 and don't yet regions. care of

that is still under ukrainian control, while much of done yet is occupied by russia. before the war, the european union had its eye on ukraine's deposits, especially of lithium, a currently and 4. it's almost all of the mineral from china. in 2021. the you and ukraine agreed to a strategic partnership for raw materials. there is a norm, us potential because discrete dakota all material essential for the kind of an icing of all right, going on. this can be found in abundance in ukraine. according to the us to warren, ukraine has cost russia well over a trillion dollars and economic losses, as well as hundreds of billions and expenses on the war itself. but the trillions hiding under ukraine's fields and factories would far outweigh that in a war this had such a mass of human cost. joining us now from bucharest is andre cub ontario, these an international energy expert and co founder of s. a rob, it's

a for them for sharing system sustainability knowledge. now, what role did ukraine's natural resources play in fourteen's plans to invade? you think? thank you for having me. so of course, uh, video raw materials in general in your training are not the main reason why russia is taking this. i'm justified word and you train, or this could be, as you mentioned, a significant benefits in a positive military scenario for traveling. so a potential scenario in which rush hour to control some of these regions that are reach and are repeating overall materials with basically reinforce the rush as role in the global and you commodities markets. so apart from being still relevant on the faucets, you uh, resources, side, it will also increase it's critical. uh, i mean, their own support phone, which is critical, as you mentioned, to the edge of the transition process globally. now, but what would it mean if russia was successful?

for, let's say, the worldwide transition to green technology, if lots of parts of the, let's see a market and rushes hands. so it's important to understand from the beginning that russia has also its own resources when it comes to critical role materials. when it comes to lithium with russia was never able to scale up the mining refining processes as well as the manufacturing to that uh these based on these service choices. but this partnership with china with basically mean that together in the 2 countries with that being for as the security donors for. ready russia's fossil fuel reserves and now through some additional physical raw materials and also through chinese mining refining and manufacturing experience. because trying to control this market, it's significantly. but i think it's also important to understand that in the scenario that we're talking about, that would also affect the western world's capacity and the pace of the energy

transition process. it was limited basically access to supply or discrete to go raw materials, which may lead to higher prices. and equally, i think it's important to understand that there was also affect ukraine's potential for the construction because up to the we're with and you bring will into been back it's economy and critical drama to use may play a significant role in that provided that can actually benefit from that and now many western countries, uh, the best thing that you crime you and resources would help the west become less dependent on russia and china. you mentioned that now could put in use these resources as a bargaining chip. maybe if keith is pressure to set an end to the wall and rushes to just to put the perspective on some numbers. so the international energy agency, a forecast, that's the demand for the 2 malone, we'll triple by the end of this decade, will increase 10 fold by 2050. so just to come back to your point,

any player that controls a significant portion of the market for this particular room. and he goes today mostly in chinese hands, but uh, that's a change in this door that i'm talking about can have a higher deal only to go leverage of course. and the energy geo politics of tomorrow will be based on the control, the mining, the refining goal, this print to cover on materials. so of course that can be one of the tools of permanent is to box in the future, provided that they, they will be able to control that. and they will be able to design a framework where they can use that either uh through uh, as you said, some of the using them in the end to transition process. or um, basically limiting supply for wisdom. well, that needs that intensive the in the next few seconds. the energy expert andre a couple tar you that i thank you very much. thank you. now what

has been the earliest atlantics don't to develop into a category 5 hurricane barrow has we can slightly but remains of destructive force . it's i pos just south of the cayman islands overnight. now is mexico and southern texas. wait for the storm to arrive, the clean up has begun in many parts of the caribbean. batteries and sluggish jamaica is the latest car would be a nation to. so for the damaging effects of barrel swings in excess of 200 kilometers per hour and heavy rain from cuba to venezuela, grenada and st. vincent, done big, granite deans. the deadly storm is leaving its mark the cayman islands and mexico or no bracing for barrel. the hurricane is the earliest

to reach category 5, a result of climate change according to some experts. its path is not certain, but it could eventually end up hitting the us state of texas. here in mexico is you, good time. peninsula preparations were being made. some areas have been evacuated by the navy the for a long time, we were in a very vulnerable strip of land where we have to see on one side and the lagoon on the other. and the waste of the community is about half a kilometer or a little less. i'm not sure exactly. so a hurricane, even a category to that causes the sea to rise, which has happened before, where the sea merges within the goon, when it's very dangerous for people to stay here. then in nearby tourist resorts preparations are being made for barrels arrival. with many, also stocking up on provisions on the beach though visitors enjoyed the last few hours of calm weather before the storm

will be sent here cuz their flight. so do you will. and so when they and the thing will just take advice from the hotel and the that the, or the, or the for not to scare the barrels. seeing here as it hit jamaica is expected to make landfall and mexico late on thursday or early on friday to antonio is not from geneva is i'm class sometimes sees a psych loans specialist from the was metro logical organization in geneva. now of how we can barrow has we can debate, but it was still the 1st category. 5 storm this early in the atlantic. what's your assessment? well yes indeed. it was the oh yes. category 500. again. if i recorded a so early in the, in the, in the year for this region, and there is another point i wanted to raise these as well as i t, as in dog on

a very rapid intern situation. going from a put because depression to a major or we can in a very quickly and in less than 2 days. so this is very a to be called as well fall fall the following uh june for months of june or july, early july. so we are thinking that system phones, phones in this early in response of the atlantic is really a sign of the activities and to come in that i keep seasons that was focused to advise issues or focus on here. yeah, yes. now we've seen a lot of destruction already in grenada and jamaica, one of the biggest thing just to local people from such storms as well. it's usually with the skies of typically, i mean with the topic, most likely ones you will have descriptive wings. this one as which category 5

meanings are to choose 250 to them and tell us by our weeds goods that can read 300, keep them it does by our inspection. when you go through the i was i need to 1st sufficiently suitcase for the shipping a go of canada. i'm send men, sometimes report headings. so very district cheese wins to run short range. and these are investigating effects such as being on slides on the med slides. in addition to that, you have what we close this tall search with cheese and the revision of the ocean as is a storm is approaching the coastline. and these combine with rain for it can create a very, i mean innovations, proteins and slash readings. so it's very interesting how thoughts are associated with this because i codes i, you've mentioned that a, it's very early in the season for the storm of this size to build and be it has the

baby. is this bill top very rapidly? can you connect this to climate change for us as well? um we, what we can say is on how we can variable in the kind of situation of what as a predict kids. the ip she sees and done and go home sort find that on came i change which is we we what do we have to expect with the climate change regarding the topic or say currents is not more appropriate course like doing this, but more intense. typically, there wouldn't be a shift towards this category free category for category 5 hurricanes. in addition to that, in a warm climate in a woman i was here that can have more moisture. you will have more rain

associated with visual because sections of services to fox is i a i see as a state and in addition to that, okay. and so is that right? we're running on a time that i'm terribly sorry. i'm to have some time there from the walk me through it onto the organization. thank you. that's it. thank you very much for the

the the, the european for championships choice, the way the germany is quit for an update experience to us 2024 over national center. the focus on here at o. d. w. how to deal with china. for

years it's been a reliable economic partner for germany. recently, it's been turning it back on the west. now it's pushing for a new world order. turning in once a dreamy relationship and some more of the dependency with no easy way out. in the jaws of the dragon. in 45 minutes on d w the each. my story of the people who planned me bill to get a case have been nice to me. i am not saddam, depending on my secret. i have mocked my cities days for centuries, and accompanied my country through its finest hours until the day i nearly vanished

starts to lie 18 on dw of the us 40 welcome to this week, focus on europe. my name is let us show it's great to have you with us. things are getting serious on the football pictures across germany. the european championships are in full swing and now the german team have made it to the knockout stages. the energy among fans is a mix of euphoria and anticipation. what about the millions of football fans who traveled here? how do they like the.
