laura: i don't know that it is a gift, but will have impact. of course there are a lot of things that could have impact on the election. the reason this could have impact is because a third of independents say a guilty verdict coming down in this case would sway their vote, is likely to sway their vote. that is a good chunk of voters in what will be a very close election. there are of course and a number of countervailing forces. but that number on independents should give the trump team pause and the biden team something that they can look to. of course in any campaign you have three things. the player, the game plan, and the weather. this is an example of the weather, the outside events impacting what happens on the campaign trail. rajini: staying with you, laura, i remember covering the 26 teen election when i was based in the u.s., and the amount of airtime mr. trump got in that campaign surpassed a lot of the other candidates. certainly when you saw him at riley's -- at rallies. in a way, these court cases have rallies from 2016 in terms o

jens stoltenberg told the bbc�*s, sunday with laura kuenssberg programme — that the government in beijing was propping up, what he called, russia's war economy. he added that north korea was sending enormous amounts of ammunition to support president vladimir putin's war against ukraine. mr stoltenberg said nato was responding by working with countries outside the alliance, including japan and south korea. on the war in ukraine, he insisted kyiv must prevail; but might have to make compromises. most wars end at the negotiating table. but what we know is that what happens around the negotiating table is very closely linked to the situation on the battlefield. so now russia believes they can achieve their goals on the battlefield by by continuing to push militarily against ukraine. so the way to convince russia that they have to sit down and accept a solution where ukraine prevails as a sovereign, independent, democratic nation in europe is to give military support to ukraine. then, of course, at the end of the day, it has to be ukraine that decides what kind of compromises they are willing
