truman became president the month the united states and the united nations was born in san francisco. by then however, andk dreams of a world made tranquil by universal law had melted in the cauldron of war. today, we know what churchill never doubted. nations are here to stay. nations not super national entities, are the prime movers of history. and the united states which churchill loved as much as he loved his american mother, it is more indispensable than ever. i'll give you just one example. churchill firmer -- certainly appreciate and applaud. the two thirds of the planet that is covered with water, the oceans, the great global common, will be policed and kept orderly by the united states navy or it will not be orderly. we are 75 years on from one at churchill's urging here, the united states unfurled a flag of world leadership. 75 years later, our nation is wiser than it once was. about the seniors and the limits of its strength. the united states has experienced some hard learning on the road from fulton and churchill's appearance there to here. the hard learning began for yea

the world for example of the united nations right with the idea is not it's not perfect doesn't work all the time, but people come. people come people beg to come countries want to be represented in the united nations because they know that that's the place where your sovereignty will be defended by a community of people. it's exemplified by things like the european union, which has the flag. it reminds me a little bit of the old american flag the original american flag with the stars in a circle because they don't have 50 yet. all right, wait till they get 50. it's going to be hard. they're gonna you're gonna get something other than a circle i predict. and it's a situation today. we're even people who really really don't like each other. in fact might be building bombs might not like iran will come to the united nations on american soil and will have a conversation. okay, the conversation not go like if we like but there's not that immediate resort to the first weapon because you know that's something that your neighbor will try to steal. we'll try to overrun your borders instead,

united nations has issued an emergency appeal for funding to help pakistan recover from devastating floods. the rains have now stopped, but they've left up more than a 3rd of the country under water affecting more than 33000000 people. on this map shows the vast areas hit by the flooding, stretching the entire length of the country, and many of pakistan's bread basket provinces, in the south have been submerged, raising concerns about food security, a village underwater in pakistan. sind province, one of several key agricultural regions that now resemble small oceans. many people here were poor before the floods came. now they've lost almost everything in those areas that are dry, makeshift camps, how's those displaced by the water? and farmers salvage what they can from their fields. pakistan's climate minister says the flooding is apocalyptic, and that her country is bearing the brunt of climate change caused by more develop nations. because then is less than one percent in the global emissions of by if you like a we hardly contribute any of the emissions to the broader emission blanket

secret, classied information, the disclosure of which could jeopardize united states national security. what we learned today is a little bit why the justice department decided they needed to move with urgency, expedition, and execute a search warrant on the former president of the united states. laura: it is completely unprecedented. what do you make of the fbi taking boxes from mar-a-lago, including some that contained top-secret material? thomas: it tells us they found at least some of what they are looking for. when you go to a judge and ask for approval of a search warrant, you have to identify the documents or the evidee you think you might find. the fact that they carted off a lot of boxes and they describe them in general terms, so we don't know the specific documents or what was in there. but we have a sense based on the general descriptions. they did find documents that contained classified, top-secret, or sci material which is the highest level of classification the u.s. government allows. laura: mr. trump's lawyers are arguing that the president has the ability to declassif

the stakes are high as the month long conference gets under way at the united nations headquarters in new york. russia put its nuclear forces on alert after it invaded ukraine. the u ends chief set, the threat posed by nuclear weapons today hasn't been seen since the cold war and he issued this morning. we have been extraordinary. lucky so far, but luck is not the strategy, nor is it. the shields from geopolitical tensions marlene over into nuclear, conflicts to with a humanity is just one misunderstanding, one miscalculation away from nuclear, at any lation. we need the treaty of non proliferation of nuclear weapons as much as ever. germany's foreign minister accused russia of reckless rhetoric and reminded signatories of their obligations to the non proliferation treaty or n p t. we are here to defend the rules based international order. the entity is not just the piece of paper. it embodies some of the most fundamental commitments of human kind to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons to ensure nuclear weapons. i never used again and to work towards our common goal of a word free o

i knew similarly, we finally became united zera's customer and you nation emerge on february 24th at bouy. i am the ne, not gourne for me, but reborn more a nation that did not cry, scream gets his gantski. when that did not run away, he did not give up and did not forget. the president and 1st lady also visited a memorial for the soldiers killed in the conflict. meanwhile, ukrainian troops in the east are locked in a riding war of attrition with the russian army. oh, he is bellinger still with his mother. he is on this independence today. we're talking about a possible war of attrition. now 6 months into this conflict. is there anything for ukrainians to celebrate while this war of attrition has been going on for several months now, and it's the fear is that it's going to be a war of exhaustion actually. and of course then many worries occur. how long were the west sustain its support to ukraine, et cetera. ukraine is making, of course, sometimes even spectacular strikes against russian ammunition depots, or, or supply infrastructures. we've seen the strikes on crimea. we have seen

what was interesting is that the united nations secretary general. on the other hand, he said that any further military deployments around the area need to be suspended . he also said that the area needs to be completely the militarized, and that any potential damages to that plant is suicide. the problem now is how to agree and how to reach and negotiate from now to reach an agreement between russia and ukraine so that the inspectors had make it to the plans to reserve. thank you for that's where that's crossed now to wrestle said, whose lie for us in istanbul or so what does turkey hope to gain from all of this well, of turkey has adopted the position or of keeping good relations, both with cave and moscow. so it is almost the only nato member country that is able to hold direct told with both capitals and as a result of this position. so turkey has emerged as an effective broker in his whole ukrainian crisis. so turkey and russia, they are significant trade partners. 40 percent of turkey's and of geneva is coming from russia and turkey, as is as a

but kristin, that's when he joins us from the united nations now. so kristen, what did you make of the russian federation? a master's comments there. well, we heard the russian ambassador pushing back against accusations coming from the west and nato, a lion countries that it's purely rushes invasion of ukraine, which is causing the strife that is being felt not only in ukraine, but across its borders. i, he accused the west of a double standard when it comes to the situation. they are often ignoring abuses by ukraine from its failure to live up to the minsk agreement to placing weapons and military equipment in locations near schools and hospitals, or using land mines in russian controlled territories. and now it's important to note out point out that the u. n as well, has a called russia's invasion of ukraine, illegal and at the base of this conflict. but what i think we heard there from the russian ambassador in pointing to double standards is an attempt to continue to drive wedges in the world population. and if you listen to other council membe

go according to the united nations high commission for refugees. the prospects for the region are far from rosie. the number of people facing hunger is expected to rise by another 2000000. taking the total to 7. the situation is further exacerbated by the conflict in ukraine bouts forced food and fuel prices. the sor, following the war of sanctions declared by the west, against russia as well wherever, even before today's hardships. malia was one of the most underfunded. she monitoring crises in the world, according to the u. n. h c, r's, representative in the country. well, to discuss the ongoing crisis further or less, cross live to author on history professor at the university of houston gerald horn . you are most welcome. yeah, according to the you and the situation is not going to be improved anytime soon, but it is the you in itself doing enough to resolve or help resolve the crisis. certainly not. but i'm sure that united nations would contin that it's handicap by the member states particular of the united states of america. which despite th

with united nations middle east coordinators called for d escalation of the fighting. kristen salumi has more from the un in new york. there can be no justification for attacks on civilians. those are the words of middle east coordinator toward venice land in response to the recent attacks in gaza. he noted that a 5 year old child is among the dead and express concern that this escalation between palestinian militants and israel. and what he described as the targeted killing of the palestinian islamic jihad leader could further exacerbate tensions in the region intentions, which have been growing and brewing not only in gaza, but also across the west bank. and of course, it's the united nations that gets called in to pick up the pieces after conflicts like this in the occupied territories. and he express concerned that civilians will ultimately be the ones who pay the worst price at a time when international support and international funding to help and situations like this is stretched very thin. so a word of caution from the middle east coordinator or words released

-- to the united nations by eleanor roosevelt. because eleanor roosevelt wanted bethune's take on the weaknesses of what would become the u.n. charter would be. she wanted bethune's honest feedback. the next year, eleanor roosevelt is appointed the only woman to the first american delegation to the united nations. she is disparaged by all of the men who were on the committee who wanted to lock her in a room and give her culture to deal with. this is no hyperbole, the paper trail is a million miles long. when eleanor just to show you the difficulties, when eleanor was asked by the u.n. to chair the first commission on human rights in the u.n., there were 51 member nations of the united nations. 50 voted for. the one person who did not want her was us. the person who pushed her, the person who wanted her, the person she stays in constant contact with is mary mcleod bethune. if you read the universal declaration of human rights which i have spent most of my life studying and kind to live up to -- trying to live up to, i want you to p

united nations chief says the resumption of shipments will help bring stability to global food markets. what we have with us today, you know, this is an important starting point. it must be the 1st of many commercial ships bringing relief and stability to global foot markets. the black sea great initiatives, the last 4 significant volumes of exports from city you could, i didn't ports odessa, charter on morse, and use the together. we the agreed facilitation of the any in be the, the excess of russian food products and fertilizers willed markets. it will bring relief and stability to global food markets, and they'll tackle the global food crisis and ukraine's president said the shipment is a positive side, tony, but tell us we'll go 9 yet. implementation of the initiative to export ukrainian green and other agricultural products from our ports on the black sea has started to day. but the 1st ship carrying $26000.00 tons of corn left the port of odessa that it's not the time to draw any conclusions. and predict further events that the port has started working a lot can be called the 1st

the official policy he pointed out of the united nations is to recognize china's one china policy. that's why taiwan does not have a representative here at the united nations. china is considered the representative for taiwan. so puts the u. n. and a bit of a tough situation between 2 great powers, the united states and china. and hence the very careful language security council certainly has not weighed in on this matter all either. and i don't think that's likely to happen. china holds the presidency this month, the united states would have to request a meeting in order for it to be discussed in it's a little unlikely that we'll see anything more formal taking place on that. ok, thanks for that. update to kristin's me. me live with us there at the urine. ah, richard, that whites is a defense on this stuff. the global consultant see a wiki strep. he says china's military response is strong. this is not the most aggressive thing that the p l a could do, but it's pretty expensive. i mean, worse, they're basically showing us that the chinese navy and air force now has to capacity tur
