mark: welcome to "live from paris," world news from france 24. jill linsky -- zelenskyy insists the missile that hits: soil was not ukrainian, but nato thinks is it's likely it was. meanwhile, russia is waging a war on ukraine and the 15 missile strikes yesterday show how strongly defenses are critical to ukraine's survival. nations unite to condemn pressure's invasion of ukrai.

the cup 27 summit has plans to save the amazon rainforest. it is live from paris." thank you very much for being with us. the fallout over the missile that hit poland has continued throughout wednesday. we got reaction from across the ukraine conflict, starting with ukraine's president dismissing the thought that the missile is ukrainian. >> i have no doubt that this is not our missile, not our strike.

i went through war with them and with you. i believe this is a russian missile, based on our military reports. we had a meeting and another one today with more details. mark: the suggestion that it was a ukrainian missile was first raised by russia immediately after the impact that killed two people on polish soil. poland a member of nato, of course. an emergency meeting took place this morning in brussels. the initial report came from u.s. intelligence saying two russian missiles it polish soil, killing two people. poland sent an emergency team to the scene. the prime minister says the incident was likely the result of russian aggression.

>> easing international concern, nato's secretary-general says the missile was likely fired by ukraine's own defenses. >> our preliminary analysis suggests that the incident was likely caused by a ukrainian air defense missile, but let me be clear -- this is not ukraine's fault. russia bears ultimate responsibility as it continues its illegal war against ukraine. >> a message echoed by the polish president. >> nothing -- absolutely nothing -- indicates this was an intentional attack on poland. what has happened, the fact that the rocket fell on our territory was not intentional. >> were leaders from acro the globe have shared their condolences, including french president, emmanuel macron.

>> our condolences to the victims of the missile strikes yesterday. i told them of our solidarity, and we express a commitment to work with poland. >> russia has denied involvement. >> we want to emphasize that high precision strikes were carried out only on targets on the territory of ukraine and at a distance of no closer than 35 kilometers from the ukrainian-polish border. >> nato ambassadors gathered for emergency talks after the blast on tuesday killed two people at a polish grain facility around six kilometers north of ukraine. the war's first deadly spill over nato territory. -- spillover onto nato territory . >> it has to be underlined and stressed that the polish delegation was the one who played things down at the

beginningf this meeting this morning with their 29 nato allies, saying as it began that there was no proof of anything else of a missile, that would have gone astray and fallen in the village. that is the only thing that has to be stressed for the beginning of this session. obviously, poland did not strike article four, which provides for consultations when the country's security, sovereignty, or individual integrity is under threat, but the other 29 allies have stressed their will and have wanted to mobilize new forces in defense of the easternmost part of the alliance

, as it is. mark: that is our correspondent in brussels. for more analysis, we bring in an expert on eurasian affairs at the atlantic council. thanks for being with us. volodymyr zelenskyy adamant the missile was not ukrainian. nato basically saying likely that it was. surely the truth will be easy to ascertain given the expertise that forensic analysis has these >> yes, d i think that now w have to be patient. i think it is very common that people try to have a hot take and publish what they want to, and unfortunately, that leads to misinformation and disinformation. exactly like you said, we need to wait for experts and analysts to decide what happen and start drawing conclusions from there and the appropriate action afterward. >> indeed.

as the news is breaking, we and everyone else stressing the importance of waiting for the news to emerge. however, i think it is still fair to say, no matter how this turns out, whichever premise is the correct one, there are still questions for nature, ukraine, and for pressure on this. what does nato do next? >> i think this shows the danger of the russian invasion of ukraine, and as we approach the nine-month period, thousands of people have died unfortunately. from this horrific accident, two poles have died. i think nato has to continue providing weapons to ukraine so that it can defend itself and defeat russia. otherwise, it is certainly possible another mistake like this could happen or worse, and the world does not want a global conflict, and i think the way to prevent that is to allow ukrainians to maintain their sovereignty and push russians

out of their country. mark: what russia is trying to achieve i the 58 missiles it fired at ukraine yesterday -- i think a record number, it is certainly clear that is an aggressive act -- it has certainly pushed russia more into that conflict. it wouldot have happened if the russian invasion was not happening. >> exactly. russia is invading the sovereignty of a foreign country, its neighbor, and ukraine has every right to defend itself, like secretary stoltenberg said during the nato presentation you showed earlier today. mark: we are hearing from the pentagon, from the u.s. that the united states is going to stand with and continue with the military aid to ukraine. how essential is that, especially from an air defense

angle? >> certainly. there was an announcement the biden administration is working with congress to push a new bill, roughly $40 billion in additional aid to ukraine, so showing that the united states stands firmly with ukraine. the european union is trying to work together to try to promote some additional funding bill, but unfortunately, there are some holdups. it just shows the entire international community is once again supporting ukraine. mark: the g20 underlining that, too. thank you, sir, very much for joining us here on france 24. we appreciate your time. we continue to look for developments on the situation in ukraine. next, we go inside ukraine. ordinary people once again caught in the crossfire. let's remind you once again, 58

russian missiles fired on ukraine on tuesday. we were just discussing with our guest. in our report, we meet a family. >> on the outskirts of nicolai of, yuri is about to show us his home. >> this is our kitchen. >> the soldier has been living in a converted garage with his wife and two daughters for months. >> in the first days of the war, it was safer here, but if an s-300 missile hits, a garage like this can become a problem. >> with two generators, extra plug sockets, he has made it as comfortable as he can, particularly for his two daughters of just a 12 and 13 who are taking school classes online. >> this is where they study.

>> after so long, the children have few complaints. >> it is comfortable. i'm used to it. >> used to it, except for one thing. >> i miss my pets. >> and what else? >> nothing. >> with her mother, more than eight months of war have taken their toll, and even russia's withdrawal from kherson has taken -- has made her suspicious. >> they could drop some kind of bomb on us. it looks like they pulled their people back to free up the territory. they could start bombing us. that's what i'm afraid of. >> another 10 families live in a similar conditions nearby. all have one thing in common -- a desire at least to celebrate the new year in their own homes. mark: leaders of the group of 20 major economies made a declaration this wednesday,

backing up the united nations general assembly resolution that deplores in the strongest terms russia's aggression against ukraine. there were other views that that international law must be upheld and the threat of nuclear weapons was inadmissible. it also welcomed the black sea crane initiative. >> leaders met in bali, indonesia. in search of common ground, they seemed to have found it in a draft statement wednesday night, saying most leaders strongly condemned the aggression in ukraine, but acknowledging that views varied within the g20. an unsurprising caveat is russia itself as a g20 member. >> a russian representative participated in this summit, and

even if the discussions were long, the text was adopted. >> the kremlin itself has recognized the declaration is balanced despite criticism. the prelude to the two-date diplomacy was a meeting between president biden and xi. both sides affirmed their wish to avoid conflict. >> do i think he's willing to compromise on various issues? yes. >> although xi made it clear taiwan was a red line and other compromises have yet to materialize, but china held several other meetings with western allies, leaving them hopeful china might use his influence to de-escalate russian aggression. among them, emmanuel macron. >> there is room for convergence, including with china and india, to push russia towards the escalation. >> but the official declaration

stated that the g20 was not the forum to resolve security issues. mark: 4 protesters in iran have been sentenced to death. there have been constant protests since the death of a 22-year-old kurdish woman in police custody. activists say she was beaten up by police since -- beaten up by police before she died. a total of five death sentences since sunday have been handed down, all condemned by human rits groups. 15 other protesters are expected to be handed similar sentences. meanwhile, at least seven people are reported killed by iran's security forces in a fresh wave of unrest. brazil's president-elect said

that he would crackdown on illegal deforestation in the amazon. he says he wants to initiate relationships with countries that finance forest protection efforts. he says he intends to push, to host an upcoming world climate summit in the rain forest. it is six weeks before he will be sworn in as president for what will be his third term. >> there will be no climate security if the amazon is not protected. we will spare no effort to bring the deforestation and degradation of our biomes to zero by 2030. mark: brazil's president-elect speaking there to the world climate conference. time for business. brian quinn joins us with continuing fallout from the collapse of the world's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange. >> the former ceo of now

bankrupt ftx is facing a classic lawsuit in florida along with a host of celebrities who promoted the exchange, including football star tom brady and comedian larry david. yield-bearing customer accounts at ftx were in fact unregistered securities being sold illegally. ftx is reported to have used customer deposits to bailout its affiliated hedge fund, alameda capital, for losses suffered in risky capital investments before then collapsing amid the crypto investment of a bank run by investors. crypto under block fight is preparing for bankruptcy due to its exposure to ftx. genesis is suspending customer withdrawals and new lending. the latest data out of the u.k. shows the rate of annual inflation there at 11.1% for october, its highest level since 1981 and a full percentage point above september's range.

>> the bank of england earlier this month forecast that u.k. inflation would peak around 11% in the fourth quarter. the annual inflation rate for october is a smidgen above that at 11 point 1%. the u.k.'s new prime minister speaking at the g20 in bali in indonesia. laid the blame for economic pressure squarely on vladimir putin's war in ukraine. >> we should all declare none of this would be happening if it were not for russia's invasion of ukraine. this is the cruel and unrelenting reality of putin's war, and as long as it goes on, it will continue to devastate the global economy. >> u.k. food prices were several points higher than the overall inflation rate as supermarkets

passed on rising costs to consumers. the price of electricity and natural gas was also significantly higher. the u.k. is faring worse than most countries in what is a global trend. governments worldwide are struggling to contain price hikes. the wto director general speaking to france 24 at the g-20 summit, says the war in ukraine has exacerbated a series of factors fueling inflation. >> we had the pandemic. we had the fiscal stimulus that was implemented by many of the developed countries. we had a lot of demand in the system. i think it is more productive to try to figure out how we cut this inflation rather than turning to the blame game. mark: time now -- prime: time

now for a check on today's trading action. markets ended the day in the red amid investor concerns over geopolitical tensions after that missile landed in poland. the ftse 100 lost .25% as one from one it is likely to face a windfall tax after seeing its half-year profit triple. target cut its outlook for the holiday shopping season. shares lost around 13% with the s&p 500 down .8% at the close. the european central bank is warning financial institutions to brace themselves for potential turmoil on markets in the months to come. banks are being urged to prepare for more loans going bad. international regulators are being called on to require investment funds to hold more cash. the alert is aimed at avoiding

naturalized to be u.s. president. mark: i'm sure he could organize that. great to see you. images circulating on certain social media platforms claiming to show the fatal explosion in istanbul on sunday. >> following the istanbul terror attack that killed six and injured dozens on sunday, misinformation was quick to follow with a couple of videos that users claim portray the explosion. let's start with this tweet right here that is shared this time but flash news, which is a ukrainian news website on twitter. they got the facts right, but the footage was not complete we correct. let's look at the video that goes with this tweet right here that allegedly shows the moment that this blast occurred in

istanbul where we see pedestrians and a blast that indeed occurs in this cctv footage. this video was retweeted by many others on twitter. we have two examples right here. this example for example. this video was not the only one. we also have a photo that has been circulating on twitter with this post right here that has been retweeted over 2000 times since november 13. that reads pray for turkey with this photo we can see right here supposedly an image of the blast on sunday, so this image was also shared by others on twitter purportedly depicting this explosion that tore through the busy istanbul street this

sunday, november 13. mark: if these images are not of the explosion in istanbul, do we know where they come from? >> we have answers right here. this footage did take place in a stumble, but it dates back to 2016, to a 2016 when a suicide bomber detonated himself in a busy istanbul street. we see in this news article dating back to march 19, 20 16, and for the photo right here that we saw in the other tweet, a misleading claim since this image right here had already appeared online a month earlier on october 9, which according to media reports belongs to a huge fire that broke out in an istanbul district, killing three

people on october 3 night, and it appears that natural gas was the cause of fire right here in this building. here we have another news report showing the exact same angle that was shared in the fake claims on twitter. right here, we can see the two images showing the said -- the same angle and the same explosion. here we have two images shared on social media that do not belong to sunday's istanbul blast that killed six and injured many others. mark: manipulation of the facts online. thank you very much indeed. for more news, stay with us. you are watching france 24. ♪ >> special event.
