biden sends the less as a democrats to hit back new claims, the his mental fitness. he says he's committed to running in november his presidential campaign, despite schools to step aside the menu compose, mckinnon. great to have you with us. the un security council is preparing to hold an emergency mazing in response to a russian missile attack on ukraine's biggest children's hospital. russian diplomats have denied responsibility to the strike and keep which came as part of the largest wave of attacks against ukrainian cities a month. at least 37 people have been killed across the country. since then, that's been several driven to tax in the south, west of russia. images on social media, show russian oil and energy. some it's inside to the field and we can get more on
2:02 pm
this for military analysts. marina moran from king's college london. hi marina. now the kremlin is claiming that the children's hospital and keith was hit by fragments of the ukrainian at defense. miss sile, the un and the c ukrainian secret service say it was a russian miss. uh, what will, can you tell us about this good day on. yeah, it is to some to tell what exactly happened that i think that what is required is an international investigation team that's impartial in order to be able to determine in order to be able to look at the destruction, to look at the fragments, to look at the people were around the facility to interview them. so i think there is no simple answer to that. and of course, the accountable person should be home because we're talking about russia and ukraine. so steve, actors, but we need to much deeper than that,
2:03 pm
who in the chain of command was responsible for, for that strike, who gives the, or the, or was it based on false intelligence? so i, i think that it's much more complicated than it appears to be up and in the 1st place. and i believe either way, the international community has a responsibility to ensure that the risk proper protection for civilians in any one case on an investigation still needed. but obviously, the damage is huge. what does this tell us about ukraine's defense systems as well? this is problematic because the crating insides believe that they have sufficient air defenses in order to protect the key of and that shows a huge moving or ability gap when it comes to protecting the capital. meaning that president is a landscape might be requesting more of an era defense batteries from the to specifically because the summit is not about to take place. so i think natal
2:04 pm
leaders will have to think about how to better support ukraine, at least when it comes to the short term, given the fact that the russians still have enough capabilities to conduct the long range strikes and will certainly use this gap in the area to kansas in order to just trying different targets, including those located in the cities, including the capitol. speaking of the nice i summit that is coming up in washington. how significant is the timing of this attack coming up coming just before the nice face on this as well? i think it's pretty significant from what it looks like. so. right, right now the international community is condemning russia, as i said, investigation that should be conducted in order to find out what happens. but as it
2:05 pm
seems that the national leaders will probably want to support the key morrison they have specifically because this made assignment is supposed to discuss what is going to happen with ukraine and prepare for the possibility of the whole from winning the u. s. selections, which would be a huge blow for me to and a possible blow to ukraine as well. so they might be looking at delivering more of flashing, more a to you before the us presidential elections. and i think the strikes play in, in, into the whole picture, showing that to crane cannot withstand the russian attacks without outside support . and that support is needed urgently. ministry analysts, marina moran from kings college london. marina, thank you. thank you for having me. its just
2:06 pm
allas off to the russian, mrs. sile by ridge was launched, a india's prime minister and they're under moody arrives in moscow for talks with the russian president. it's his 1st state visit to moscow since russia's full scale invasion of ukraine. and during torques, he says, he told loving that position the piece was quote of utmost importance and that the murder of innocent children was unbearable. but he also said that india is economy had benefitted from its strategic partnership with russia. india has stepped up the importance of russian oil despite presences and from western countries that have put sanctions on most go. now we can get more on this from dw correspondent emily show when he joins us now from rica in lot via that's because rational socrates of clothes, the dw bureau in moscow, emily moody seeming the to condemn the loss of life and in rushes war in ukraine. is it surprising that he brought this up and his meeting with him,
2:07 pm
or i think it shows of what an awkward moment this was in a way for him to read and remote the because he was there when this attack on the children's hospital happened or he came just after and today he condemned the loss of life, including of children, clearly there referencing that strike on a children's hospital hospital in cuba. but he didn't directly blame vladimir putin or russia indeed for that attack, which shows he's a, he's walking, you know, an awkward line. but it also, i think what stood out in general today and yesterday and during the meetings was just how much both leader is despite this difficult situation or putting a show on of how close they are of their friendship. they're under the under moody, also today calling, letting me a put in a close friend talking about a trusting relationship. and then also yesterday,
2:08 pm
during the unofficial part of the meeting, the 2 leaders hugged when moody came to and pretends residency. and then putting showed him around and even took him into his course stables, the 2 pet horses yesterday together. so i think all of the shows, and it's really important for both leaders to keep each other on the side, especially for vladimir putin, because he's gained so much economically from the relationship with india. because india has been, uh, you know, taking most of the crude oil that western leaders have been refusing to buy from russia since the war and ukraine began. so the optics of this meeting, obviously, extremely important. i mean, when the west and clearly tried to isolate rusher over its war on ukraine has on it and yet visit visits like this one, show that rusher is fall from a low and obviously importance of food and to show that to the world. so that's right. this is an opportunity for a show for put into show that he has friends. and of course,
2:09 pm
the timing of this meeting is probably hardly hardly a coincidence. today, the nato summit kicks off and the russian narrative on the war. and ukraine has been all along that russia is actually fighting against what they call the collective west. and that nato is at fault for this war, even though russia of course attacked ukraine invaded ukraine, and vladimir putin has been also repeating this narrative that he wants to build with his partners, including india, a multi polar world where the west is no longer dominant. and where the global south is more important, including of course, um partners like india. so this is really perfect timing kind of to show off that he has friends despite the west attempt to, to isolate him. namely, thank you so much for that. let's do w, as emily show and reporting from reger and not be is to the us now,
2:10 pm
what president joe biden has insisted once again that he intends to stay in the presidential race, despite concerns about his mental capacity, he's not received some unexpected support from germany's trump, so that will affiliates, he says that he's not worried about the american president's mental ability. some members of biden's democratic policy though, have often to assess the step aside of to a disastrous debate performance against donald trump last month. but defiant, president biden, on the campaign trail. been doing this a long time. and i honest to god have never been more optimistic about america's future. if we stick together, i really made it around 2 weeks after a poor debate performance sparked calls for him to step aside as the democratic presidential candidate bite and is on a mission to prove you still got what it takes, all the doubts about his mental and physical health persist right now. recent headlines haven't helped reports and the new york post and the new york times
2:11 pm
showed that a specialist on parkinson's disease, a neurological disorder visited the white house 8 times in 8 months. when asked to clarify, spokesperson for reading, john pierre got into a heated exchange with the journalists. but the president, i can tell you, has seen in our office 3 times as it's connected to the uh, to a physical that he gets every year that we provide to the wait, wait, wait, wait, i am released once in regard. i just, wait, hold on a 2nd. wait, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, wait a minute. cool. ed. please. little respect here, please. well, i can tell you this just going back to parking since for a little bit. so to give you some answers here, has the president being treated for parking says no, is he being treated for parkinson's? no, he's not. is he taking medication for parking says no. so those are the things that i can give you, full blown answers on, but i'm not going to don't,
2:12 pm
i'm not going to confirm a specialist. any specialist that comes to come to comes to the way us out of my question. in a statement the white house position, so the president has not seen a neurologist outside of his annual physical review. and joe biden has shown no symptoms of parkinson's disease. but for many, a diagnosis is not necessary. according to reports, half a dozen top democrats in the house of representatives said in a private phone call on sunday, the biden should drop out and let another candidate face down republican presidential nominees, donald trump, in november's election on monday by and said, that's not happening. he wrote a letter to congressional democrats, claiming she's the man to be donald trump. as biden's support fragments, his confidence it seems, is still very much intact. since your button is insisting, he is still a democrats, best trots to beat donald trump in november's election. i off, katherine cleared the ashbrook, who's the executive vice president of the baffled month foundation. think tank if
2:13 pm
she agrees. well, i mean, it matters little what this motor thinks about president binds chances of beating donald trump. what matters is whether the democratic national committee, the party ultimately has a procedure in place and has a strategy in place, moving into the hot phase of the selection, the pundits. and of course the poles will have, you know, that he is not the right man to continue in this role. and i think the tricky thing about the poles which you can discount a lot of times in the american context is that you've take, if you take pulling over the years now you do see that a moment of trailing at this moment in a campaign spelled bad news for whoever is the candidate trailing, and that is clearly the case for joe by now. not just this moment in time, but over time. so the democratic party needs to think about it's party discipline
2:14 pm
because as we, for just now in your piece, party, political heads are still peeling off and speaking out against the president, while the president is trying to shore up his offline. and that seems to signal weakness within the democratic party infrastructure. i don't think that fund manually helps the democrats now as they head into the weeks ahead of. well, well my, my likely be if you're difficult convention for the democratic party. and that was catherine ashbrook from the battles on sunday should think time speaking to me, that literally is a quick reminder for you all of our top story today. the un security council is preparing to hold an emergency meeting as rescue, as in teams, such for survivors off to a russian attack. new friends lodges children's hospital on monday, rush and wants to wave those missiles against you training and says he's killing at least 37 or that you're up to date to stay with us because close stuff is up next with a look at how countries in africa and asia, you, nato, today,
