to go forward with, you know, the year towards a political stability in 11 on one part of that was the, all that could actually be the basis for deploying the lebanese army in the southern part of lebanon. where has paula run back to his boss is kindly base and controlling the territory. and diplomats here are looking ahead to a possible seas file that will probably not be chief here today. but, you know, the way towards, it could be paced, you know, with, for example, you think that in the lebanese government and celebrities, i mean, that would then be deployed in the south of lebanon. france is hosting this conference. does france have any special leverage lisa in efforts to bring about peace in level? cultural and political ties between 11 on fonts have historically been very, very strong. also, because 11 on had been a french protector of a, for about 20 years from 1920 on and off the, you know, building for

a very strong of the schooling system, for example, 11 and is mostly french. that's the french by columbia. and french politicians always have always been following very closely. what's happening in that's kind traits. also fronds has been known as a website to say neutral actor because the government here has always been talking to each side to all sides, including the political branch of iran that has full us. so the hope is that you know, this position as a somehow maybe more neutral government than other countries could help bring about, you know, if not a ceasefire, but pays the way towards that long term solution. that's at least what people hear and power. so hoping for today based so thank you very much. lisa louis there in paris. in 11 on itself, the countries army says 3 of its soldiers have been killed by israeli fire in the south. on the other side of the border in northern israel,

after reports of john yang had sent some 3000 troops to support russia's war in ukraine. so i clone. dana is growing and strength as it heads towards the east coast of india. authorities have close schools, cancel trains, and evacuated hundreds of thousands of people in preparation for us land fall late thursday. climate scientists say severe storms are becoming more frequent in south asia. russia is paulette president, platinum and 13 is expected to meet with you and secretary general, antonio gutierrez, for the 1st time in more than 2 years. the meeting is due to take place on the final day of the break summit in the russian city of cousin or gutierrez, arrived there on wednesday to attend the summit hosted by booting keeps. foreign ministry says the meeting damages the u. n's reputation. world leaders from $36.00

countries are attending the event, which is the largest diplomatic gathering in russia's census full scale invasion of ukraine began. you might be 2 point oh, i spoke earlier about the break summit with our ukraine correspondent and it connelly. i asked him how the meeting between putting in good terrorist is going down in keep that's right terry. there has been pretty room resolute criticism of this visit from key if seen from here. it kind of smacks of double standards because you might remember that when you crane held its 1st piece summit in switzerland earlier this year, guitars didn't turn up to that. they were kind of briefings that it was seen from the u. n. is being kind of to political into kind of part of then if you were to arrive that and now arriving at this event from ukraine you perspective is basically giving platinum includes you a photo of maturity and a good kind of bolstering pritchens efforts to show that he is not isolated because the you and give it prospect saying that it's certainly no more for you in general,

6th street to turn up to these brick summit. some of that has happened in the past . but certainly that picture of something that people had a very unhappy about seeing when it comes out. and there's a general feeling that, you know, russia as a security council member just has that kind of legacy position that it just is kind of seems part of the furnished of whatever the rest it does at the un. hi, rocky is still gonna engage with the in a way that it wouldn't, you know, take a risk for ukraine so that certainly some people who are very unhappy about. still some leaders who are attending the brick summit like india is prime minister in are under a moody of said that they support peace in ukraine. china is a, she said there should be no further escalation of the war or whitening of the battlefield. have ukraine's leaders, nick expressed any hope that maybe some bricks members could help bring up, bring it in through the war on ukraine's terms. i think you really have to look at individual countries positions,

right. so you have your under moody that he is someone who is seen over the india does. a lot of trade with russia has bought a lot of cheap russian energy since this will begun, has benefits of financially from russia's economic isolation from the west. he is still seeing that someone who is a bit more of a on this broke of someone that you crank and trust and is potentially able to be somewhere in between the 2 positions. whereas i think the chinese position is not really bought into, from ukraine. china is vast importance to keeping rushes, economy afloat of c rushes, industrial complex. it's totally dependent on chinese that pause to build weapons, especially the letter electronics to make themselves fly here to ukraine. so i think no one is really from china is an honest broker who is the kind of credible intermediary that lots of countries have wanted to offer. this service intermediaries will remember for the other one of the took you can see kind of making those offers. similar situation with leaders from the u. a and other

countries. but i think for now for you, great perspective, this is also a bit early, right. the ukraine is convinced that if negotiations ought to happen, that you credit has to be in a strong position for flooding the fruits and even to want those associations of the loan to give terms that would satisfy you crane. but i think generally using to look at these kind of plans that have been advanced, right. there's a chinese piece plants being basically doing the rounds for months now. and it has very little in the way of concrete steps in the way of making it clear how they would break. the impulse to just took of known escalation, which seen from ukraine, is basically just accepting the way things are and rushed to control on the ground . without anything to make you cry and happy so there's always skepticism little fear. but on the other hand, ukraine is very aware that it needs to engage with countries to the global south, especially india and is doing more to, to magically to try and count to that worst influence with, with those countries. so with this summit the protein is clearly hoping to show that he is not isolated on the world stage. what's the view on that from ukraine?

i mean, certainly those in your family pictures is that sometimes cool those, those pictures, the images are the ones that really count your what the summit actually achieves in terms of that you quick in terms of actual diplomatic progress is less important than the visuals. i think it's important but to kind of stress of the is of seats cooking at home. he has avoided most foreign troops including a previous brick, some in south africa because of his fear of exceptional arrest points against him. so i think it's still less of a win than if pushing was surrounded by it will lead to some way internationally and traveling with the kind of freedom that he would have done before 2022. but certainly it is. it is a blow seen from your priorities assigned that, you know, most of the known western world know outside europe and north america, and maybe a few others off a lot less willing to see this advocate situation of ukraine being the victim of

russian depression. and the rest of the, the cause of this war and even though the wording is often difficult for many plan, effective, right, lots of all these talk about this is a crisis as a conflict rather than a war. so certainly there is a lot in that for you trying to do to try and take its message to these countries. and so we have, we are seeing you, grand opening your embassies trying to engage these countries. but for now that russian kind of point of view, seemingly still pretty widespread. nick, thank you very much. that was our corresponding nick conway. n t. a diplomatic dispute has broken out between germany and russia over a new naval command center on germany's baltic sea coast. russia says the base pilots in agreement keeping nato troops out of eastern germany. the german government rejects that claim. this is why russia is not happy. a new naval operation center enroll stock, northern germany, all the headquarters will allow me to partners to coordinate operations in the

baltic sea. but you didn't get to know if your ration this week defense minister boris. the story is stressed that the command center is gem and not under the tooth direct command. no nato troops who are being deployed these this guys built a need to hate cute. doing they to truthfully stationed here. it's a multi national task force. nothing more and nothing less on the mail on the screen of russia however, cleans that. the command center was a violation of the 2 plus $43.00 t which in the early 19 ninety's paved the way for german reunification under dots agreement. berlin pledge not to station foreign troops in each germany. no most school has summoned germany's i'm boss that are in protest. seeing the move would have extremely negative consequences. while visiting by lynn, the president of finland told dw that russia was hypocritical. russia is waging

a war of aggression in which it is fine. i think every possible tenant of international law, whether it's un charters, terry, total integrity or sovereignty, or whether it's the o. s. c. i think it's very important that nato has a strong terrance, and that determines is based on troops. it's based on missiles and then it's based on a nuclear deterrence. and however, then we structure our troops around our own border. that's our job of the command central enroll stop. that means 100 navy stuff from around a dozen countries keeping check con russian activity. but germany insists that does not meet the threshold for a breach of the 2 plus 4 g, t. so to bangladesh, and it's been almost 3 months since that countries, former prime minister, shake, has seen a resigned and fled the country following weeks of mass demonstrations led by students. many of them describe trusting is rule as all socratic following her.

allister, some in bangladesh is creative, seen, feel empowered to make use of their freedom and engage in political satire, political cartoons like these, we have nowhere to be seen in bung with this maintenance to media of would spend minutes to share cutting, now was stealing, followed by god, who needs to be hit, the hawk says he and his colleagues loads please defend from the big thing top political leaders during costing us 15, you know, 10 year old i know that the embargo will buy very well. it was a kind of legal embargo on drawing political cartoons. that was something they definitions under the digital security act, which looks on as the cyber security act. typically people that were phase, we would be in danger. if we drew something critical, it triggered the worst kind of censorship. what we call the self censorship for the $200.00. so it takes up costing us government utility in cost with needs to have at

a sit and prosecute at what there was. but then how to play it after the popular uprising in august. menia this back in 50 and bought into excel says that you do freedom, initiate the summer that i'm just wondering if i can be we saw about 500 cartoons drawn and 15 to 20 days. before the night, but it was direct santoria and it was not meant to work out there have been valuable now that if we have wanted to write the history of political cartoons, it would be a significant chapter, significant take that off the press. freedom in bangladesh has declined in recent years. the organization jupiter, so we the border, then the 160 people out of 180 countries in it's 2024. was chris, who do i mean, dick's analyst said bung with this is just at the beginning of its efforts to improve press freedom for press feed and there needs to be certain reforms to us. the digital security after cyber security at most of the various laws that define

what is defamation and sedition and things like that. what's, what constitutes going against the constitution? what constitutes going against the 4th and isn't the constitution. all of these things are a criminal offenses on the part of general, so anyone racing even ranking on social media? so coming out of that would mean these laws actually need to change may have the whole cast board for the distinctive last to be the period. that's under consideration. we bought of this new into them government now do you bring them the w a reporter managed java, john just now i see just returned from an assignment in bangladesh and joins us here. good to see you banish when it comes to freedom of expression in bangladesh. what has changed since the ousting of the government? earlier this year? kathy, the situation has definitely dramatically changed. you can feel at the moment you

enter fund like this. i spoke to a lot of people, i joined the list students, people from government or can they get funding that issues? and many, many people told me that for example, the simple thing like posting criticism on social media. this is basic criticism. they were not, that didn't feel comfortable criticizing the government or any government institutions or the security forces on social media. so all of a sudden you'll see a lot of people, young people expressing their anger, expressing their emotions on social media. and then there was a political analyst, for example, who told me that now in bangladesh, order for starting with our seminars, happenings, there are discussions happening about how bug not these can move towards democracy . what would be the role of security forces? what kind of changes the constitution should have all of these discussions, but the very difficult to have under the offer shape because we not. and that change, we see television channels. for example. also,

most of the television channels and media in bangladesh was inclined towards the form of government. and now you'll see a lot of stock shows where you have guessed ford. also even goodness has invented them government. so dramatic change. all of a sudden it feels like a very suppressed with id is coming out, speaking up, or, or their thoughts and their opinions. during the previous government, the student led movement was pretty severely repressed with violence also by the security forces or those involved in that movement. that student led movement able to really express themselves without fear of persecution now, so some of them are now working, but the entire government. so be see a very active role of just looking for testers. but that, which is very interesting, if the moment to enter taca on the wall it's, you see this expression of students and forms of beautiful color photos maybe are

of us. we can show that of some of the pictures to our viewers. for example, you can see this one freedom. this one for the example as is a criticism, a to the security forces which were involved in to, to crack down of the students. and, and the criticism is also that even if they were doing it on the orders of the, of the government. this bill had the power to resist for these kinds of messages. the students are shooting and these pretty colorful, beautiful uh, noodles for to see around tucker. and this is, this is the kind of expression you'll see. you'll feel that people are depressed all of a sudden on the voice is the criticism of the form of government. it's also a message to the future leader that they want bundle of dish with people like even if that hinders most times and people of other religions, bishop, the, or should be part of the fight. they should be treated equally. so used a lot of these kind of messages, so that's basically, i think, addressing to the,

to the future leaders of the government. so the city escape of doc uh is changing as a result of all this. but not everything has been resolved when it comes to freedom of expression in bangladesh. what we've heard from a political scientist and that report there, what still needs to change in order to really assure basic fundamental rights. and yet there's has one of the most press the laws when it comes to freedom of expression on hold for freedom of press. and that needs to change the law. the law still exist and what we see on the ground is because there's so much of a political deficient political folder i vision. so we work b. c, and reports us. but our board does say the journalist who are more supportive, all former parameters for chic athena. now they are facing a charges. some of them are facing charges because of these laws for the government says that they are taking action they have for example, aust, that if somebody is charged they will not be arrested. and they has to be afraid

investigation. but the government is not going through as aggressive process of judicial refunds of also reforming the media if from reforming up a loss that can accommodate most more freedom of preston for fighting. and therefore, the interim of government has a critical and crucial role to play right now to make sure that no journalist is unfairly docketed, exciting time for bangladesh, banners. thank you so much. that was a reporter banished german. this european sciences are carrying out a so fist dictated study. they're using artificial intelligence to help farmers understand the emotions of their pigs. researchers say their technology can reveal if a page is experiencing a positive or negative emotion by analyzing its links in grants. they're using thousands of sounds recorded in different scenarios, like when pigs are playing versus when they're isolated or competing over food.
