u. s. back in. and we, we have to take care of this earth for the people that are coming up behind us. i have a 19 year old dial and a 21 year old son, and i want them to enjoy this, and i want to leave this place better than i found it. and fortunately, our government here, your government there. and now the new administration in the united states is taking this very serious and you know, we go through the, through, in the, in the summer we go through forest fires here because of the heat and down but, but we're all kind of pulling on the rope the same way so, so i'm expecting to see greg result. well brian, i can say the world needs more ambassadors and light view, but we're going to win this fight against climate change. brian protests for joining us tonight from chello back in british columbia. brian, thank you and stay cool. thank you for having me on and. and jeff of the island nation, madagascar pars paying a high price for climate change widget has done little to calls the worst drought and 40 years of, of thousands in the indian ocean state. on the brink of starvation, 8 organ

u. s. is back? yeah, i think so, and that's what i was getting at in my initial response, that, that alone, the fact that he's going to show that the u. s. has backed that 6 to be a global leader in concert with the allies. that is the big story that that's why this all matters. yeah, there are huge, really important issues like fighting the pandemic, international trade, fighting climate change containing russia, china. of course, those are important specific issues, but the main thing is what you just said. bite and gets a chance to, to show that the u. s. as back and by the way, it's going to require a lot of these summits to make clear that the us will remain back it because i think a lot of people are looking to 2024 and wondering, oh my goodness could, could donald trump return and could all of this cooperation be put back on ice again? ok for the for the present moment though at least the leaders of the g 7. going to be on the same page when it comes to managing the relationships with both rus

u. s. is back yes, that very pleased by that. but to be honest with you, i think some of them are still looking over their shoulder and wondering, is president biden here in the u. s. back for good, or could this just be for years of president biden? and then the return of president trump or another, trump like president. all right, thank you for me. and i matching edits a james base. all course, the other key issue at those discussions at the g 7 summit in the days had is going to be climate change. and even as leaders met in cornwall, that was a sobering reminder of how urgent this issue is. data is revealed, the scale of recent destruction and brazil's amazon rain forest, more than 2 and a half 1000 square kilometers of land was destroyed in the 1st 5 months of this year. that's more than 3 times the size of new york city and a 25 percent rise compared to a year earlier. in fact, deforestation, sword, 67 percent in may compared to the same month in 2020 march. the land is targeted for capital ranches, farms and logging. it's ad

u. s. had that back. well, president, by making it quite clear that the u. s. is back and it does have its allies back from now on. so that's the, that's the 1st stage of this trip with the g 7 allies and partners of the leading economies of the world are going to be joined by other significant countries that are also joining the g 7. so you have a straight earlier, you will have south africa, south korea, and joining remotely, india those countries are interesting because i think you'll see certainly from some of the attendees that countries that have particular interest and concern about china. then president biden getting on to meet with nato countries and then going on to meet with the countries of the you is going to see many of the u. s. is key allies and partners and getting united view from all of them on what they think of china and also russia and that particular problem. russia. he said he doesn't seek confrontation with russia, but he is going to speak very firmly and defend democracy and the future of democracy when he meets vladimir putin. and that

so when, when president biden comes back and says over and over again, the u. s. is back, the u. s. is there, the u. s. will defend its nato allies. it does mean something. it's not just atmosphere. if it does create more of a sense of security among these allies who are bound to go to war for each other if necessary. and, and the truth is that during the trump administration, he didn't make a lot of changes on the ground even though he threatened to. so most u. s. reassurance, measures physically are still in place and everybody is, is very much welcoming. these are the words from president biden that tell them if needed, we will use our defense mechanism to protect you our allies. thank you for that territory. show that nature headquarters in brussels. every year dw brings together media professionals and decision makers from a range of fields to discuss the most important socio political issues about time. german chancellor, i'm going to michael started this g as global media form with a special message. there was also an address from armand lasha party colleague who hopes to suc

u. s back in and we, we have to take care of this earth for, for the people that are coming up behind. if i have a 19 year old dial and a 21 year old son, and i want them to enjoy this, and i want to leave this place better than i found it. and fortunately, our government here, your government there. and now the new administration in the united states is taking this very serious and, and you know, we go through the, through, in the, in the summer we go through forest fires here because of the heat. and but, but we're all kind of pulling on the rope the same way so. so i'm expecting to see greg result. well brian, i can say the world needs more ambassadors like you, but we're going to win this fight against climate change. brian potentially joining us tonight from chiller wack in british columbia. brian, thank you and stay cool. thank you for having me on and and shout. well, the island nation of madagascar is paying a high price for climate change, which of course it had little to do with the worst rounds and 40 years of the thousands in the indian ocean. on the brink of starvation, a

u. s. back after the government is fast losing control of the country. the taliban has reportedly captured at least $27.00 districts since the beginning of last month. and that's now less than 3 months before the biden administration's pull out deadline, september the 11th, although, and he will activists, brian becker, i think some senior figures in washington are looking for a pretext to stay. we see here is a tug of war between those who are insisting that the u. s. they for ever an afghan and those who feel that the war is not winnable. it's a drain. it's not going to be, it's not going to alter the outcome. and they also make a differentiation between the taliban and should the television become the new government? yes, it would be the same kind of government maybe with some slight variation from the way it was before september 11. but i think it's important not to complete that with the isis or isis is in afghanistan because of the us invasion of afghanistan. there was no isis prior to 2001. and our height is really weakened for so obviously the mi

so when, when president biden comes back and says over and over again, the u. s. is back, the u. s. is there, the u. s. will defend its nato allies. it does mean something. it's not just atmospheric that does create more of a sense of security among these allies who are bound to go to war for each other if necessary. and, and the truth is that during the trump administration, he didn't make a lot of changes on the ground even though he threatened to. so most u. s. reassurance measures physically are still in place and everybody is, is very much welcoming these the words from president bite and that tell them if needed we will use our defense mechanisms to protect you. our allies. thank you for that territory. show that nature headquarters in brussels and the german marshal fund is a nonpartisan policy organization that's aimed at strengthening trans atlantic ties . dr. carina 1st is deputy director of the brussels office and joins us now. welcome. dr. natal leaders are working towards an up dated strategic a concept. how is that likely to be different from its current form drafted i

u. s. back in his traditional leadership role as president biden's said that his news conference back at the table and engaged. and he said that was necessary because of the key challenge they face. i know this going to sound so much prosaic, but i think we're in a contest with china per say. when a context with autocrat autocratic, governance around the world as whether not democracies can compete with them in a rapidly changing 21st century. and i think how we act and whether we pulled together democracies is going to determine whether our grandkids look back at the 15 years now and say, did they step up our democracies as relevant as powerful as they had in the countries he's talking about that clearly he, among them are china and russia. the final communique criticizing what's going on in shing shine, talking about democracy in hong kong. a new plan by the g 7, but with no real details, no fresh on the bone yet to rival the belt and road initiative by china with regard to russia. president b

u. s. back to africa government as fast losing control of the country. the taliban has reportedly captured at least $27.00 districts since the beginning of last month. the medicine group has bound to take the entire country and establish on islamic emirate of afghanistan. back in april, president biden pledge to removal us troops by september. the 11th. that was pushed back from may. the 1st, the earlier deadlines set by trump and the taliban. in march, the pentagon had promised that the us would not undertake a hasty or disorderly withdrawal. and that everything would depend on the security situation on the ground. we spoke with anti war activist, brian becker things, some senior figures in washington and looking for a pretext to stay. we see here is a tug of war between those 2 are insisting that the u. s. they for ever an afghan is den. and those who feel that the war is not winnable, it's drain, it's not going to be, it's not going to alter the outcome. and they also make a differentiation between the taliban and should the television become the new

u. s. backed off gun government is losing control of the country. now as the taliban has reportedly captured at least $27.00 district since the beginning of last month, that equates to almost half the country. the militant group has tried to take the entire nation and establish this lumnick emirates of afghanistan. back in april, president biden pledge to remove all us troops by september 11th, but was pushed back from may 1st. the earlier deadline negotiated by donald trump on the telephone. but u. s. military leaders have repeatedly cautioned against any kind of deadline. thing the draw tone should be based on the security situation on the ground rather than a specific date, anti war activist brian becker, thanks. some senior figures in the u. s. are looking for a pretext to stay. and if chemist we see here is a tug of war between those 2 are insisting that the u. s. they for ever an afghan is then and those who feel that the war is not winnable. it's a drain. it's not going to be, it's not going to alter the outcome. and they also make a differen

u. s. administration of president donald trump. and then they survived that and managed to get the u. s. back and kept this nuclear deal all in a effort to trying to revive airlines economy and open up the country's economy to the international community. so it would mean a very positive start for abraham race. his government, when they take over in august, if that team in vienna managed to secure an agreement before they leave office. i was just curious door such about reporting live from 10 ron doors. many things in moscow has registered a new record for cove at 19 infections for a 2nd day running. well, the 9000 cases were recorded in the last 24 hours. moscow's math says the surge is being driven by the contagious delta variant. first identified in india, restrictions including a ban on large gatherings have been extended in the city. the palestinian authority has rejected a deal with israel to receive more than a 1000000 cove at 900 vaccines that are close to their expiry date of vaccine swamp was announced earlier on the friday palestinians say that they will till the doses would last i

u. s. is back. he will also attend to the nato summit and to meet a russian president vladimir putin in geneva. the russian course has outlawed the political.

u. s. is back essentially to show that the u. s. has moved on from the obstructionist trump era, moved back towards a global leadership role towards more traditional forms of multilateral diplomacy. he's going on from here to nato in brussels to the you in brussels marshlin, this kind of coalition, he says, of democracies lighting up on key issues lining up key u. s. allies, particularly in the face of the perceived threats to democracy from russia ahead of a meeting next week in geneva, face to face with let me put in the russian president, ending a very busy week for the u. s. president. all right, thank you so much jona, holler. bolivia is among countries where covered 900 vaccines have been slower for arrive, its health care system has been pushed to the brink while battling a 3rd wave of infections and death. tolls exceeded $15000.00 as hospitals run out of space and resources to raise a bo reports. the oxygen is a luxury in bolivia these days, and that's why these people came to this factory. coach alamba. many have been waitin

u. s. plan called build back better world is part of president biden's efforts to fully more united front to compete economically with china. and the u. k.

at the g 7 in recent days, joe biden, making very clear in his opinion that america is back, but it's not the u. s. being back of the us, picking up again on old alliances that were absolutely shattered in the trump years . this is a very important thing to the, by the end of ministration. it's these international cooperation as a critical way in which to achieve a, a global, a security. but also importantly, it doesn't see, this is something just outside the united states that sees it as a national policy issue within the united states. achieving some kind of agreement with iran in the bite and will do is not just getting a deal done. it is also creating a greater degree of security within that region, globally, and creating a greater security for the united states. so bite and effectively things from the outside in rather than the way trump thought, which was very much just in the inside. i think that my candidate for us getting us the american perspective from washington d. c. let's go back now to a harry force it who is standing by for.

u. k. or backing a u. s. proposal to offer developing countries an infrastructure plan known as build back better world to rival beijing's belton road initiative. the white house, as it aims to help narrow the 40 trillion dollar infrastructure gap in lower and middle income countries by 2035. but it is also discussed the declaration committing to a 100 day response window to develop vaccines and treatments to prevent another pandemic trinna. how reports from so much and cool, well described as a historic moment. d 7 leaders pledge their collective mike to plan to fight future pandemic. the copies fe declaration aims to develop black scenes in under a 100 days to build better scientific surveillance techniques and to beef up powers for the world health organization. but some were eager to stress that the current pandemic is not yet over. so we didn't really hold the power to come together and to organize the, an effective response to the corporate. and the only way to be effective in the rest of it is get an

u. s. s. back and back from his relative. it's relative isolation on the president trump, however, the devil is going to be in the details and we know that, for example, the u. s. one to be quite strong on china. whereas with in the g 7, they're all quite divergent views when it comes to standing up to china. for example, the chancellor uncle america said in her opening remarks that nothing can be achieved without, without china, for example, when it comes to climate change being all the climate change. this could well be the latest last chance to make a real difference on climate change policy. you expect any major commitments by the g 7 later the pressure is definitely on here in cornwall all around me. there are protested extinction, rebellion protest, and other climate change. protesters and i speak to one of them and she said, they have the feeling that the message is getting through. generally that there is a shift and the leaders are listening to them when they are preparing their various statements on what needs to be

u. s. is back as we hear him. so often saying, remember that this is an institution that president trump, his predecessor loved to bash, calling obsolete even bringing into question whether the u. s. would defend an ally if it were under attack. so when allies here, president biden say that this article 5 commitment is sacred to the united states. everyone is going to be breathing much more easily here at nato headquarters other than of course, the atmospheric, the elbow bumping. we're going to see there are some very serious issues on the agenda. of course, russia is an evergreen at nato, and with president biden's meeting with president coming up later this week. allies are very much going to want to hear from him. his views on russia, how bold he's willing to be about telling russia it needs to stop it's malign activities, which effect not just the united states, of course, but your opinions as well. and, and they want to want to hear what his narrative is going to be with president putin. there are also issues

u. s. is back. he will also attend the nato summit and to meet of russia's president putin in geneva or russian cause has outlawed the political.

u. s. is back. he will also attend to the.

u. s. has and he's here with a very clear message for them in his own words, to show that the u. s. is back back to a global leadership role back to more traditional forms of multilateral diplomacy. and the allies, of course, extremely keen to embrace that message, particularly as their economies emerge from the pandemic. perhaps looking for fresh global direction and still refreshing the memory, the era of donald trump, confrontational, unpredictable will succeed, will job. i am convinced that well, this meeting already proceeding on the basis of agreement rather than discord. he will move on from here to brussels, to further shore up alliances with nato and the e. u, and construct what he describes as a coalition of democracies. a united front for when he sits down next week with the russian president vladimir putin and expect, jo biden's approach. there to be very, very different to his predecessor, donald trump's, who of course, famously cozy up to the russian president. ah, well let's bring in our guests from alexandria, virginia peachey, crawley, former united states, assistant secret

u. s. was back at the table and fully engaged and he said that was important because of the main issue facing i know this going to sound somewhat prosaic, but i think we're in a contest with china per se. when a context with autocrat autocratic governance around the world as whether not democracies can compete with them in a rapidly changing 21st century. and i think how we act and whether we pulled together as democracies is going to determine whether our grandkids look back to 15 years now and say, did they step up? are democracies as relevant as powerful as they have been singled out to countries . in particular, one of them was china. you'll know that the g 7 has this alternative now to the belt and road initiative. china's infrastructure investment program has been in place for some 8 years, no real flesh on the bone of exactly how that's going to work at this stage. criticism in the final communique of china, the treatment of the week is and the situation in hong kong, the other country is russia and certainly president biden said that russian u. s. relationships was at a low point. he

u. s. as backing a plan to waive peyton's on vaccines. if all the g 7 countries like germany would come on board, that will be seen as a success for president joe biden as well as the board johnson get mass reporting. now of course in russia has outlawed organizations founded by the jailed opposition leader like say, nevada, me declaring them to be extremist, the ruling bass. people associated with the group from running for public office flashing the hopes of his allies of seeking seats in parliamentary elections in september. it also means activists who have worked with the organizations and anyone who donates to them will even share the materials, could be prosecuted and received the prison terms. let's bring in correspondent j cordell and moscow. welcome jake. so this was a closed court hearing that took a lot longer than expected. why was that? yes, and this is already the 2nd time this hearing is try to go ahead author earlier delay, which was up to the prosecutors. it would have been a much quick affair, as you said, it was a close

u. s. came back to the states that leading that leading force that we needed. and we have been the biggest donor for the callbacks alliance. so we have been contributed a lot. and i'm sure that the chancellor and the president will talk about details because we agree we need to do more and we are prepared to do that. and we showed it already, and i do, we have enough. i would think that many german voters, it's, they look at the painfully slow vaccine road. i'll say we need to get vaccinated ourselves 1st. well look if you, if you compare the explanation progress right now with us, i think germany is quite good position today, but you're absolutely right. it was a painful protest and germans remember that. but we also people who understand that we are not safe until that have been successfully dealt with on a global scale. so every government and the chancellor made a public statement yesterday. every government has responsibility to rec, to me, and to take care of its own people. but there's no contradiction here, so we're going to continue our policy of being

u. s. is back, as he says, it's committed to nato. is this about telling allies what they want to hear or is this about telling them the truth? that is definitely what allies wanted to hear. and joe biden made it very clear during his press conference, once again, that nato is critically important for the us. and that the you ask commitment to article 5 under which an armed attack against one ally is an attack against all allies is a secret obligation. and we just have to keep in mind how much damage former us president donald trump, has done to be alliance. so i think that the allies were very happy to hear what joe biden to say. d. w. always enter phenomena at nato headquarters in brussels tonight. alexander, thank you. every year d. w brings together media professionals and decision makers from a range of fields to discuss the most important socio political issues of our time, german chance or i'll america. she started this year's global media for with a special message. there was also an address from this man. i mean, last year he

u. s. is back to reassure his allies, but is it enough for him to just not be donald trump? i think he's came to be more than not chose donald trump. couple of things to watch for. first, the emphasis in the communicate on working through multi last with organizations, the corporate tax initiative, for example, to be successful. minimum global corporate tax would have to be agreed by the g 20 . and that is explicitly notion in the communique, little bit more modesty, a little more humility in the communique, also about the importance of working at home to strengthen democracy. and i think some real commitments to car about deals going forward, particularly the tech sector and digital services that you'll see when the fight and meets with your opinion. so a long way to go. we still have steel and alimony and towers between europe and the u. s, we still have quite a bit of differences in visions on in china, but i think there is a sense of an administration with an agenda and with policy ideas. all right. hey, thank you so much for joining us. here on the news all. renata dawn

u. s. trying to trade dispute back in 2018, but the then trump administration went even further imposing 10 percent to terrorism elementary. i'm and 25 percent terrorists on the import off almost all foreign steel, including from europe now brussels, interning post 25 percent tariffs on u. s. deal while also targeting other products. other safeguards such as import quotas have led to shortages of steel on the market, and prices are skyrocketing. the 2nd truck company in western germany makes stumped components for automobiles. the machine is constantly supplied with high grade rolled steel straight from the furnace. last year, 2nd trip paid $4900.00 euro's for a relative steel. now it's $9000.00 tech and trucks. managing director blames the massive price icon. you protectionism, which is closed off the steel market here, imports from nani. you countries also called 3rd countries, like china, turkey or russia are restricted by quotas. from guessing type on import code is the wrong approach at this moment. they should be lifted and they can be imposed more flexibly as a more appropriate point
