strategic partner the law. i'm terry martin. welcome. we're beginning ukraine where russia has carried out more air attacks across the country. at least 7 people were killed and dozens more wounded in an air strike on the. the city in the far west of ukraine has largely been spared throughout the war. the strikes come just a day after a missile attack on the central city, a pull top of the left more than 50 people dead. it's one of the worst attacks of the war. so far in response present below them is lansky has again appealed to allies to allow ukraine to use western weapons to strike deeper into russia. paramedics race through the streets. just moments of to poll tava was rocked by the

rule of explosions. russian ballistic missiles slammed into a hospital and at the military institute of communications. this speed, leaving victims with little time to run for cover to get through. the air raids alert started and in just a minute there were 2 explosions. we thought it was somewhere in our house. then we got ready to go out and realized that it was the communications institute. officials say dozens were killed and hundreds injured. more victims of believes to be trapped under the rubble. those who could be freed were rushed to hospital soon on the 7th floor of the operating room, almost all operating tables, teams, and anesthesia teams were involved in for you. c o t t is there a funds of mine lost injuries punches under the combination of injuries

took the residence, raced to donate blood for the victims as presidents, the landscape. urge west them allies to help prevent these attacks, which seems to be to once again, we edge everyone in the world who has the power to stop me, tara gifted to meet with the dead defense systems in the midst of needed a new credo, inconvenient, alternate warehouse somewhere i could see the long range strikes that go to defend the game starts and tyra, and i need it now for every day of delay means learn more lives loves us valuable you day. this close to the front lines. pull tava is no stranger to russian attacks, but now the city isn't morning. off the one of the worst single strikes on ukrainian territory. since the russian invasion began. it was cross straight over to our correspond catalina shim. why she's in the creating capital. keep calling it less than 24 hours after that. her risk of tack on pull to about russia has now

launch and assault on western ukraine. what can you tell us about that? yes m terry many missiles and also drones sitting different targets in these. i'm not only residential buildings, but also schools. and according to the mayor of the city, at least the 50 uptake has been hit by a russian miss house. there's several debts and also thousands of injured people there. we can see that the russian military starting to target against the western part of ukraine and in a major scale. this is something that we saw at the beginning of the world, especially in the year at 2022. currently ukraine's president is pleading with western countries to not only send more weapons, but to allow those weapons to be used for striking targets deeper inside russia. what is it that ukraine needs most originally right now?

yeah terry, there are 2 main things that's the landscape and his c marketing for one of them is the ones you mentioned that the large target missiles that they need from the united states and also very much so from germany. they're still asking for those taurus from germany, but also they need more defense systems. like for example, the patio to the defense systems allows to also be iris. we know that they have at least 3 patriot systems from germany. so lensky has been asking during his latest interview though, to have at least 25 pets yet to defend systems for ukraine. order to keep the country seats away from the front lines. presidents landscape has signaled a big political shake up there in ukraine, including the resignation of us foreign minister. what's prompted that caroline? of the, the former foreign minister, mister fuller,

has given us a creation about it. he hasn't said a word about it, but it is that we have noticed during the past week's terry and that many ministers, happy resigning. also. yesterday, 3 ministers are resigned. like, for example, the minister for strategic and industries, and that means that minutes there wasn't charge of producing weapons here in ukraine. alexander commission, he resigned to rescued. united nations says at least 30 migraines have died or gone missing while trying to cross to the u. k. this year from france, however, the tragedy has not prevented further attempted crossings by small boats with french police moving to prevent another early on tuesday or correspond to terry shouts joins us now from the french side of the english channel in the city, but no one yes, oh ma'am, terry, what more do we know about the people who died yesterday?

well, terry, the fact that authority, theirs are still saying at least a dozen people died, may mean that they still don't know exactly how many people were crammed into this 7 metre didn't we do know that more than 70 were there and of those, at least a dozen people died and 10 of those were women and children, including a pregnant woman. this just goes to show the links to which people will go to try to make this very dangerous crossing between friends and the u. k. more than $20000.00 people have made the crossing this year, and that's why, despite these odds, despite the possibility and even the probability that many will die, people still do make this desperate attempt. now this is just the latest tragedy in the channel, but these incidents don't seem to be deterring others from trying to make the same journey. do they? i know that's right. despite the fact that we see these deaths happen almost

continuously, including an in other waterways into the european and into the u. k, there seems to be an almost limitless supply of people who are so desperate in their home countries that they are willing to pay, you know, what, what amounts to criminal enterprises to, to put them in these and see where the vessels knowing that they can't possibly sail across the channel this way, and from what we understand from, from local authorities, in this case, the boat started to disintegrate, almost as soon as it left the french shore. and there was a response by multiple vessels and even helicopters. and still they have this desk toll of at least a dozen people. there are still people who are very grievously wounded that are said to be in hospitals here in balloons. the amount that we heard from francis interior minister yesterday saying that french authorities managed to stop 60 percent of boats that had launched into the english channel. what more could

they be doing, terry? to stop the smuggling that works that organized these crossings as well. that's a big problem and of course it's a multi national problem. the smuggling networks aren't just centered here in france or in the u. k. but what frances saying is that it needs more money from the u. k. as one example, to put more patrols along the french side of the border here. in fact, there was an agreement earlier this year between the 2 countries in which the u. k . did contribute more funds to friends to do this. but front says, this is less than a 3rd of what it's actually spending on its side of the board. the other thing that's happened is that the e u and to the u. k. have signed a deal between the use migration agency front techs in which there could be more information sharing to target exactly what you mentioned, these criminal networks that are lowering people to the, to these border areas that are taking enormous sums of money from them. and knowing that they're putting them basically into a desktop here in the waterways. terry, thank you very much. that was our correspondent terry schultz in french sketchup

on a few other stories making headlines around the world today. rescue operations continue in southern india after monsoons and major flooding killed dozens of people. thousands of people in the southern provinces of taylor and ghana and under for dish have had to leave their homes to shelter. an emergency can have rooms. most famous ancient monuments. the arch of constantine has been damaged by a bolt of lightning. custodians say they've secured all the stones and fragments that were not lose. the parts was built in $315.00 a. d by the emperor constantine, who has rooms 1st ruler to adopt christianity. and a former aid to the us states of new york governor has been charged with secretly acting as an agent of the chinese government. linda son and her husband originally exchanged information. in exchange for millions of dollars and goods,

including meals, of coordinate that they pleaded not guilty to the charges of the well, a host of african leaders of arrived in beijing for a summit that could further strengthen china's influence across the continent. present. she's in thing is expected to urge african nations to take more chinese goods in exchange for pleasures of new chinese investment and loans. but many of the african partners he's courting one more favorable financial terms. as debt pressures mount, china has invested billions to access africa's wealth of oil cop uh, cobalt and other resources, building roads, railways, unplugged facilities, the project and shows the swift on efficient transfer overall materials to china. while the countries in question obtained the structure, the benefits that economic development, but the boom is now of many african countries have gotten into debt trouble. and

they realize they have to cut back on the amount of loans that are taking out because they will have trouble re paying them. as a result, the whole built roader initiative has slowed down in africa. but china's presence on the continent still fall around stripped start of year of a ton of them. and then in the trained relations of many african countries was still dominated by europe almost 2 decades later, the situation had been completely transformed. a dot comic dominance is part of china strategy to become the world's pre eminent superpower. well, many western firms i put off by the higher risks involved chinese companies and enjoy state backing. one of the problems that the west spaces is the private or direct foreign direct investment depends overwhelmingly on the, on the private sectors of europe and united states. whereas china has

a stronger ability to manipulate the amount of foreign direct investment that goes in. the government plays a larger role in addition to traditional infrastructure, the state affiliated technology joint one y is also involved. expanding africa's telecom is networks. chinese companies are also trucking the consumer market with low price phones as well as clothing and cos. the thought said europe has launched an initiative to make up for lost ground and to middle eastern countries are also fast growing investors in the african continent. wild showing that his land to african countries about a 170000000000 euro since the year 2000. but that was left many countries saddled with debt that they're still struggling to pay back. can you, for example, has increased taxes to help pay back the debt to move that resulted in violent protest. so what do, can you want their present to achieve this time in china?

the w's east africa bureau chief, mario miller, put that question to young people in nairobi. the william said it's not working and see is going to go to bring money for development. but it's not going to have me to do, you know, the problem you facing the money just and stuff. yeah. in those people. so i don't even go for pivoted to to cut out. so go out to my legs and then i should finish paying what we owe them 1st before getting the next loan. even if even though the money would help us, we should 1st pay back what we have borrowed before. asking for more money. canyons are painfully aware of the downsides of seemingly attractive infrastructure projects financed by china. like the $5000000000.00 railroad that was supposed to transform penya into an industrialized middle income country, connecting and with it's made by uganda. but the track stuff showed up the buddha

because of unpaid debts. the project became famous as the prime example of the pitfalls of boring corruption and mismanagement right away. it's just one example of large scale infrastructure projects financed by china. that critics say, well neither financially viable no to the benefit of most canyons. this elevated highway connecting no ruby with his international applewood has also been criticized. the tax paid was bad and with the costs, but only few canyons can afford the ride. the citizens would have decided to see the money invested in health care or education. china is, can use biggest, lend it over staging, $7000000000.00, mainly for the development of roads rails and put in structure experts say the continent is hoping on china's easy money africa. now is it a comfort zone? and can, you know, of course, so we know that even if we go broke, we can get some money. so there's that, that cycle, china also now when you go and get money from them, then they do not really

a so many questions solar. i mean, if they don't tell us, you know, just a tax people, then they don't really interfere with. they turn off as of the countries nothing to pay off its debt to the i m. s. kenya's. president williams were to propose tax increases. but there were a why the unpopular and let to months long and debbie protest across the country to the schools, to abandon the tax hikes and does no again, i'm less complicated loans from china struggling under a cost of living prices and unemployment. young canyon say they've had enough of china finance prestige projects that leave them and future generations in debt. instead, they want more drops they should be able to incorporate it to the union use. it should be able to give them an opportunity so that they can also benefit from these . i'm very disappointed. i feel that to our government is mostly sending to us means that not being taken care of. and so i expect to be a natural prudence uh,

as it goes ahead to which includes a negotiated deals on behalf of the government that i don't get to see the benefits . i only get to see the progress one, which i feel as a, as a tax thinking in kenya's, toby debt is equivalent to 2 thirds of its g d p. interest payments and them are eating up more than a quarter of the revenue. it connects to that and the economic crisis can yes, and don't leave william root too much choice in negotiations with china. other than to ask for even more loans of service a board because together. but china could do more to help african countries to escape that, that cycle recurrent come and puts industries here that even if we don't have the 5 minutes to do the finished product, but it come adds value so that we don't just ship out, you know, roll my to use, then we can have more jobs full of your guns, and so we don't have to keep begging, you know, and, and, and trying to emigrate to other countries that are more developed. china is focus

for the summit, has now shifted from financing big infrastructure to green technology and energy canyon's hope. this time it will benefit them more for more on this we can bring in bobby, and crunch journalist in beijing fabia. and how is the chinese government framing these talks of the but actually the forum here in the aging is by far the largest diplomatic event that the chinese government has been hosting for many years. so it just by the number of heads of states we are in town, and i think there are several messages that the government wants to get out there. and one is that china is very active on the international stage that it's becoming a diplomatic world power. and i think that's also a message not only to what's the build itself, but also to what's the west name of the saying that if you become increasingly hosted to us, then we focus more attention to 2 other regions of the world. and then this also,

of course, the message that is specifically aimed at the global solved name, the promoting china is a quote unquote. yup. includes if apollo, that is representing a tentative to the west lake by the us. um, china always insisted that you know, it doesn't have a colonial background. they did this very programmatic in terms of cooperation model. it will not jots about which i don't know to you have for what you think about human rights. it's really about the business and, and investment. and i think this is the message that china wants to get out there. and it will say that, look, we, we really developed quite a lot our economy. if you follow a path, you can do the same. and we are ready for business, and i think that is the message that china wants to send out, especially to the african countries who are here as guests engaging in the past.

probably, and china has issued massive loans to countries across africa for ports and other mega infrastructure projects. paying back those loans is proving difficult for some countries. how does trying to plan to work with this? i've been trading partners in this situation. yeah, that's really a complex questions and oh, you already mentioned that, um, i mean this for example, see of among many african countries that they become politically dependent on china . because once they're in debt that then you know, it's, it's, uh, they have to basically pay, pay back with legality. and i think that is a legitimate concern. but on the other hand, from the chinese side, there's also like a big concern that you know, they, they cannot get their money back. and we see a development to that until 2016, 2017 china as uh you know, been lending on a mess of scale and starting then like 2018. 19 really it,

it crashed um the decline of landing and the decline of investment was really very noticeable. and then you know, the pen demi kit, the money here in, in, in china has been very, very short. and also the economy here in china does not develop very well. so basically all those investment projects came to a standstill. and just this is the 1st time that lending to african nations has been going up again. but really on a much smaller level compared to 2016 and, and now what the chinese government is doing, it's really much more cautious. it will not, you know, it will look more closely. we have to spend the money and it will look also more closely on how the chances of whether they will get the money back or not. and i think that is really a paradigm shift. and i would say that china probably has to learn from the mistakes that it has made in the past by, you know, looking more closely where to invest and when not ideally, the relationship that china is developing with african countries would be a 2 way relationship. what is it that china wants from africa in this

arrangement and do african countries have any prospect's of exporting more to china? of what i think is pretty it's, um, i mean the power dynamics is clear that yeah, you know, china as the big world power tests about support leverage. and i think um, the, the goal of china is, you know, what, they are economic interests, for example, securing, i'm, you know, wrap up some, some african countries also may be cultivating a market. but it's also about the global influence of china seas, you know, many regions in the world where they want to cultivate the a friend of relationships when it comes to, for example, both at the you end, that african countries will also represent um, chinese interest. i'm only mentioning a few issues here, for example, when it comes to taiwan, when it comes to um, also human rights concerns that the political west is always of voice and concern

that you know, the african countries will be loyal to what's the chinese position. and then of course, that's the, the, the market aspect that i would say the china is selling quite a lot of, you know, i'm, i'm a tech products, consumer electronics, but the applicant consumer is not as strong as capable yet. so i would say that most big chinese companies are still looking towards the west and they are particular to the european union because um, you know, the u. s. has already close its market quite a bit to whats um, chinese companies and f regarding that property. europe is still the bigger player, but then for african countries, i mean they can get investment to they can get infrastructure investment from china, which is definitely needed. they can also sell the agriculture products to china. so both sides basically try to get the best from uh, what is their interest in to try to make the best out of this relationship? probably, and thank you very much. as always, that was journalist probably and pressed for invasion. switching gears though it's

been a difficult week for car maker volkswagen, and it's workers with the company announcing potentially historic factory closures here in germany. but it's also is being reminded of an arguably bigger crisis. diesel gates. remember that almost exactly 9 years after that scandal was exposed, the criminal trial against former c. e. o. marketing been to a con, has begun. the company was caught rigging a missile emissions test, but this latest court case will seek to determine the culpability of the man in charge. mountains into con was once the car industry's most powerful man, c. e. o. folks bought in groups from 2007 to 2015. he's now swap the board room for the courtroom. 9 years ago, v w admitted that had installed and illegal device in around 11000000 vehicles, world wide, allowing the company to cheat on emissions testing. dialing down its emissions in
