the, the, this is the, the, the news line from valid japan was the threat from china, japanese prime minister for me. i appreciate it tells us congress. the vision is the biggest thing just to international peace and stability. also on the program, tens of thousands, 3 that homes and 7, russia and catholics down in the was subbing for 18 years. the children who welcome to the program, japanese prime minister for we have casita has one of the us congress of the threat from china was before the us. your time in the philippines begin. that 1st joined

security summit in washington. mr. casita told us lawmakers in beijing presents the biggest threats to the pre existing benefits of the international community. is the 1st japanese data for 9 years to address both houses of congress and the praised american leadership on the well stage. the united states policy was based on the practice that she might 18 does not want to live a press by then also retired. a young state where you were tracked and surveilled and denied from expressing what is your heart and on your mind. we believe that freedom is the oxygen of humanity to the world. we use the united states to continue playing this. people told role in

the affairs of the issues comfortable in general, dom alone and washington told me how that space had been received as well. it would have been apparent to anyone listening just how much of an effort because she made to emphasize like mindedness to emphasize that the japanese connection to the united states to spoken link in english. that's not something that he always does. he called the u. s. and japan, shipmates on as a vote of democracy, but really his main message to us lawmakers was so u. s. is not alone. meaning if there you, us does not leave japan to stand up to china alone in the in the pacific. then japan will not also leave us alone on the global stage to act as the world policeman. this is of course, happening against the backdrop of the growing skepticism,

especially among us house republicans about. so you was to, is a role in the world about the us to support for, for, and wars offer support for its allies and void embroiled in foreign wars. and what's the expectation from casita here is, is that they should not give up on us leadership. and if they don't, japan will be there to help. now, to be fair, japan really has been putting it's money where it's analysis. it's an act and several key policy changes in the last 2 years that really did allow it to become a better defense partner. like lifting some of the curves on its defense, exports like the increasing its defense spending to record levels. now there is also worth noting, of course, that japan is the biggest supporter of ukraine in asia. it stood by western countries on since day one as they enacted our sanctions against a rush off for its aggression against ukraine. and there is a phrase that casita has been repeating on his visit to here. it's today ukraine

tomorrow, east asian in that you can really read his motivation as he urges us not to give up on its alliances to help them alone in washington. tens of thousands of people in of, in russia and catholics time have been flooded as that homes melting. snow is cause the overall bill. that's a surgeon flood defense is around the city of autumn, beth, to collapse. the rescue operation is on the way but local say not enough, was done to prevent the flooding in the 1st place. a wall of icy water rushing towards homes. here in kazakhstan, tens of thousands of people have already evacuated and still more a packing of what they can to flee ahead of the record high floods. stuff the 5 most of the range of the control, a symbol with that that i hope it will. and then will be safe,

the use of the but the night, 57 years, but the whole, it's the 1st time i've seen water coming to my home. so she lived up stream and russia, the euro river, his best, it's banks flooding parts of our and bug home to mold and half a 1000000 people lose the issue as i suppose the morning the watermark and the router. well, it's more than 10 enough off me does high and if that does the highest level of a major issue we store to liberty daniels or annual spring floods have been made, was by torrential rain and record high temperatures that have melted ice and snow. the disaster has treated public anger is effected, residents ask for better compensation and will help from russia's lead is some residents of our in bug, say local officials could have done more to prepare the dsr as ease say, the flooding. c a will pick soon. but in other regions in russia,

they're wanting that rivers will continue to rise for the coming days or weeks reported to meet you upon the off and t w's, russia office in riga, told me more. so today, evacuations continued as mentioned in the report across the oregon, oregon several adjacent regions as the area of roughly speaking about 1500 kilometers south east of moscow. this area adjacent to betweens. let's say you were being part of russia and west inside be area. we understand that the local officials and experts that calling these floods the largest in the past 8 years. and the disaster that has been declared in the state of emergency and those affected regions have been declared as a nationwide a state of disaster. so that's why the federal ministry of emergencies is taken care of the response and it says it has enough resources to, to respond to,

to the situation. but it remains, diary many parts of the affected regions. there is not enough drinking water, electricity is not working. and they have been reports, numerous reports of looting. so people in those areas that will help doesn't come or come to little or too late. they say that quite desperate and understands f as in function hasn't been to the region, but has been speaking to governors of the regions affected. well, it is basically one of the carefully choreographed appearances used on state to be where foods in the sitting in front of the screens and talking to uh, governors and ministers from the government online. of course today they promised compensations and some payments to people in those affected areas, but it remains to be seen how much of that aid we'll actually get to them. and what's interesting is, as you mentioned, that he's spokesman, me trick, bask upset on tuesday that which is not going to visit and is just another big

event in russia that puts and chooses to ignore. and the last time we saw him speaking to common russians on the ground was after the mutiny by a private company, wagner and his bus. you have any progression and dogs in, in russia last year when he met a people in august on so, so far as with the terra talk. in recent tara talk in moscow, he preferred to stay away from talking to people there. and so what are people saying about the way that governments is hand based crisis? well, the floods are not untypical for these regions. they have a lot of snow usually in the winter. so when the spring comes days, snow melts, and there was a lot of rain, so it wasn't the way expected. what may have contributed. oh, actually it was announced that it was contributed. the brought the down broke in the nearby the c divorce. that's the 2nd largest in the orbital orange book region . it broke down over the weekend despite old claims by the local government,

that it would, it would hold the line. so a lot of people in those regions say that the, these contribute. and so all 3rd is may have prepared better for this disaster. and also they say they're not getting enough help. but for now, we have seen that the criticism has been mostly directed at the local level, and it seems like prison puts in for now has escaped widespread criticism as least what we see on the social media and comments. they are in the public sewer and russia. they funds to make sure they don't have to meet you plenty of in, in riga. we'll take a look at a couple of other stories making news around the world. now we'll start in the us where i former american football stop o j. simpson, or sky the age of 76. he was sensationally clear in 1995 of the month is off, his ex wife, into a male friends and sent to prison a decade later, over a bundled drop assumptions from me. so he died of cancer. i really states tyco has been sentenced to death in vietnam's biggest full case strong might

access. we have worked with international partners to bring in more aid from the see via the port of ash door after which it will be transported down to the crossings into gauze. how much difference that would this make? i asked bob kitchen from the international rescue committee, is just re tubs from casa. so up to 500 trucks, trucks equals just about the number of trucks that were going and re conflict. what we've seen between that and, and now though, is a complete destruction of much of the infrastructure, the total displacement of, of a large portion of the population. and the, the total annihilation of any food security. so to say to, we're going to get back to pre conflict levels is woefully inadequate. we have to double triple, quadruple that level to catch back up to help people recover and,

and for that to even be feasible, it needs to be at least 5. we come help people stabilize, put back on weight we've away from, from an if the terrified every day and night of ongoing attacks which continued. i was working up on tuesday morning by a missiles being fired from battleships off sho onto rafa. it's incessant all the time. a pump kitchen from the international rescue committee cares and suffers a mocking world pockets and states meant to raise awareness of the disease which affects the central nervous system. there's no cure, but it can be managed with medication and therapy such as drugs. getting back into the group with some of the brazilian beats are helping these parkinson's patients stay. immobile the founder came up with the idea. well that a concert i suddenly sold me this cause i know when you,
