president zelensky says moscow deserves a just punishment. in the weeks leading up to china's communist party congress, which is due to usher in xijinping's historic third term in office, there is considerable pressure on the country's massive economy. beijing's zero—covid strategy is a big part of this — strict measures remain in place to return each outbreak of the virus to no new cases. 0ur china correspondent stephen mcdonell�*s report starts on the outskirts of beijing. this is one of china's biggest draw cards for both domestic and international tourers. but strict zero—covid measures are crippling the industry with ongoing lockdown. ladies and gentlemen, please pay attention... and travelling to this city, or anywhere in the country, means risking becoming stranded if cases suddenly emerge in your phone app health code changes color. so on arrival we have to scan a new local health code and then do our pcr test before we can even leave the station. ancient sites, once packed with travellers, ancient sites, once packed with trav

interestingly, she spoke to president zelensky before biden, anything we should read into that? i anything we should read into that? i think president biden was the first world leader to put his congratulations, the actual first phone call was between ukraine's president and the new british prime minister. and i think it simply states the obvious which is right now the single most important relationship i think that the british prime minister has is probably with ukrainian president because the two countries are bound together at the moment as they try and face down russian aggression. the uk has given ukraine bull support from the moment that invasion happened, providing arms and training, liz truss as foreign secretary was vociferous with the need to have a very tough sanctions on russia so i think the continuation of borisjohnson�*s policy on ukraine was given from the start and i think perhaps it was fairly unsurprising that president zelensky and she had the first phone call of her premiership. and during that phone call, downing street said that phone call, downing stree

right now there's a great of attention to vladimir zelensky as a kind. you know, some people have said that he has become a kind of moral leader to the fore. the world. how do you how do you see him in? you know, i know your specialty and what you write about as america but but i'd love to hear you riff on on him a little bit you know, does he have some of these characteristic sticks? well, use the meat. and does he use? i think he does use the media revolution and technical ology in a very interesting way. so, you know, how does he fit in on ukraine in its modern incarnation not when it was still under the thumb of the russian linked previously but under zelensky and it's a since the rebels a revolution whatever they call it they're the. is more like a state of the enlightened west and therefore it falls roughly into my wheelhouse. so if you would ask me about you know japan are some place that i know nothing about their culture would say i can't speak to it but ukraine resembles a, you know, a place where napoleon got to his troops and he but, you know

what has president zelensky said about the aid needed? yes, i think this will be the key issue in his speech to the united nations general assembly. i think the ukrainians will be using this counteroffensive and the gains of this counteroffensive to tell western partners that they have the ability and capacity to go ahead and reclaim territory, but that they need more help and they need this kind of help in terms of weapons now to keep going and to keep with this counteroffensive and to reclaim territory. i think we have been hearing a lot from ukrainian officials and the president himself in recent days. the message has been consistent, and i think he will repeat the message as he addresses the united nations that ukraine needs more help from western partners and this help needs to come now. many of the world world leaders who attended the queen's funeral are in new york today for the united nations general assembly. the major topic of discussion is likely to be ukraine — nada tawfik looks ahead to what we can expect in the coming days
