00:00Hello everyone, welcome to Mediain TV for your international press review.
00:09And if new negotiations had taken place between Russia and Ukraine,
00:13this is what Vladimir Zelenskiy, reporter for Deutsche Welle,
00:16the Ukrainian president, said yesterday that he was preparing for November
00:19a second summit to discuss the end of the war between Kiev and Moscow
00:23and estimated that Russian representatives should participate,
00:26according to the remarks collected by the International German Broadcasting Service.
00:30Russia had not been invited to the first summit, organized last month in Switzerland,
00:34so this is the first time that Zelenskiy plans to discuss with the Kremlin
00:38without Russian withdrawal from his territory.
00:41Already, according to a survey published on Monday by the Ukrainian magazine Dzerkalo Tijina,
00:45nearly 44% of Ukrainians, not counting the territory annexed by Crimea
00:49and the others controlled by Russia,
00:51consider that the time has come to start talks of official peace with Moscow.
00:58In Afghanistan, torrential rains and storms have caused more than 40 deaths.
01:02Radio Liberty informs us.
01:05Afghan authorities announced on Monday that heavy rains and violent winds
01:09had caused the deaths of more than 40 people in the provinces of Nangar and Kunar in the east of the country.
01:14The information portal specifies that the heavy rainfall,
01:17which mainly affected the city of Jalalabad and its region,
01:20also caused more than 230 injuries and the report should intensify.
01:24The site specifies.
01:26Last night, some 400 houses had been damaged
01:28and Jalalabad had no electricity or telecommunications network.
01:32These storms should not calm down
01:34since the Afghan government's meteorological department, led by the Taliban,
01:38has predicted heavy rains and floods in 12 Afghan provinces.
01:42The country has already experienced a particularly rainy spring,
01:45marked in May by a series of catastrophic rains
01:48that have already caused a total of 420 deaths.
01:53In the United States, in the current presidential campaign,
01:55Elon Musk would be ready to spend $45 million per month to support Donald Trump.
02:00The Wall Street Journal has made statements close to the case,
02:04stating that the American multimillionaire would like to invest this monthly amount
02:08in a new super political action committee, the America PAC,
02:12created late last year to support the electoral campaign of the Republican candidate
02:16who has already presided over the country between 2016 and 2020.
02:19The owner of X, Tesla and SpaceX has therefore shown his support for the businessman,
02:23victim of an assassination attempt in Pennsylvania,
02:26whom he considers the strongest president since Theodore Roosevelt,
02:29American president between 1901 and 1909.
02:33If he cannot directly finance a candidate,
02:35Elon Musk remains within the framework of the law,
02:37which allows him to carry out actions of support,
02:40such as advertising campaigns, field activities,
02:43or even encourage his supporters to ask to vote by mail
02:47and to take advantage of the anticipated voting windows.
02:51When the National Basketball Association makes a big bet on Africa,
02:55it is the file proposed by The Economist this morning
02:58to highlight the development of the orange ball in the continent,
03:01after having recalled the exploits of the country of the cradle of humanity,
03:04especially in football, with the semi-final of Morocco at the 2022 World Cup.
03:09The British magazine reports that the NBA continues to bet on the African continent.
03:13This is already the case with the African Basketball League,
03:16governed by the NBA Africa,
03:18regional subsidiary of the North American Basketball League,
03:21valued at $ 1 billion in 2021.
03:24But the goal is not only to spread the practice of basketball on a continental scale,
03:28because the American Farmer's League also wants to take advantage
03:31of the growth of overseas talent to integrate them into its championship.
03:35The rule set by the Board to limit access to foreign players
03:38should in particular allow club members to develop their training with local players.
03:43Currently, more than 50 NBA players are born in Africa
03:46or at least have an original parent from the continent,
03:49such as Joel Embiid, present in the USA team at the Paris Olympics.
03:53Despite everything, the BAL sees its stadiums half empty
03:56and is still waiting for investments to grow better
03:59between the fields, the training infrastructures and the coaches.
04:04This is the end of this international press review.
04:06Thank you all for following it.
04:08Good follow-up on Média 1 TV.
