and to your point, right, this is something that europe kind of has to do, right? they've been leaning on the u.s. in a whole host of ways. so there is a positive there. but the negative or at least the reality for the u.s. is even our closest allies don't have the same confidence they had in the u.s. before. again, afghanistan was a concrete example of that for them. yes, they knew the u.s. was going to withdraw at some point. but the way it happened, they were not happy. and you can say all the nice things you want, as has president biden, but the fact is the u.s. is out of there and now we and europe have to deal with the consequences. >> does that plus his own party not giving what he wants make it a done deal for biden before these meetings even start or does he have a shot? >> listen, he didn't get what he wanted, and by the way, the president and his team were -- they articulated this themselves, they said, you've got to send him to europe with something, with this deal. he got close, they do have a framework agreement. we shouldn't forget about that. and th

and head for europe? what happens when the himalayan glaciers melt giving less water to pakistan and india. what happens when migrants surge north after droughts or hurricanes? we know the naval base in norfolk has to be moved now as a result of rising seas, but of course, the gap between the warnings and action in congress is stark. >> the hoemt security and defense department both released separate reports outlining the threat posed by the climate crisis. yet as you know, there doesn't seem to be a matching urgency from elected officials to do anything, with some exceptions of course. >> of course. you know, biden's build back better plan is the most ambitious sort of climate package in there. it will cost about $350 billion a year. the most effective analysts say would be incentivizing power companies to get off of coal and gas and get to clean sources of energy. solar and wind. the joe manchins of the world say that's too expensive. it's interesting that this week, they gave the pentagon $10 billion m

he himself predicted in 1990 as the cold war ended, nato would collapse and europe would become a cockpit of warring states as it had been before the cold war. he believed many european states, chiefly germany, would likely acquire nuclear weapons. none of these predictions have come to pass. in fact, the european union has grown tighter and stronger in the decades after the cold war, and they remain nonnuclear. i raise this to make the point, mishhimer looked at only one of the great forces that motivates states in the international system, power politics. but there are other like economic interdependence. the world today thoroughly enmeshed with a complex global economic system where war would hurt the aggressor nearly as much as the victim. there have been almost no land grabs since 1945, the most notable exception being russia's annexation of crimea in 2014. this amounts to an almost unprecedented disrespect for borders. in addition, nuclear deterrence has raised the stakes, making countries far more cautious about launching a great power war. the task of american foreign policy is to

we'd actually have kind of a natural gas marshall plan for europe. we in america would build a set of l&g export terminals to export our national gas. we're the saudi arabia of natural gas. we're more than saudi arabia of natural gas, we have 100 years of supply. but if you can't liquify it, you can't export it. and then we partner with europeans and build terminals over there and then you have a long-term plan to counterbalance the influence of russia. >> so play out some of the other political consequences of this energy crunch and energy crisis. clearly russia gets empowered. what else happens? >> another thing i think people aren't paying attention to, and you've had this on the show before, which is iran is getting closer and closer to developing enough fissile material now to build one nuclear bomb. if you listen to americans, security officials and israeli security officials, they've been telling us we're not going to let that happen. we're not going to let iran get that close. they're getting that close. if they're considering some kind of ki

>> french leaders and particularly others in europe were telling me a year ago right after the election that they feared biden would be a little more than just basically a change -- a very slight change in direction before we go back to a trumplike position in america. there were plenty of carrots but no sticks here. that was the principle problem i see about this. biden needed to come with something that he could actually tell what he was going to do, not simply, basically, platitude. show, not tell, is what i always say. don't tell me what you want to do. that is what i think basically happened in the entire period. it was interesting, the french magazine, newspaper figueroa said climate vaccines, timid advanced. we don't need timid add advances, we need strong advances for literally kwai problem. when will you think of the top 10 in the world, the number oneie mirt r, china. number 3 is biden for the u.s. he's coming but he's coming with bad news, that he wants to lower the goal for india. the fourth is russia. here we have putnam is the encouraging sense of urgency. these people are

. >> i think it's another layer from the international penchant i hear this a lot in europe that biden was expected to be the reset. whatever happens in virginia, there's still this level of disappointment in president biden, these decades of foreign policy. there was a sense from international partners when he came to the stage things would settle down, but afghanistan, the fallout with the french over the submarine deal, both of those, i think, you know, the expectations were high. the bar was low. but the disappointment has been steep. so i think you got to add that in. while they watch virginia, there's already this recalibration on biden himself. >> a little bit of a blindness by the democrats. the democrats, we never hear them talk about, you know, when i say t"they" you don't hear pelosi, schumer, or jayapal now who you really do have to give pramila jayapal a platform, right? that we know this could be bad for biden abroad. we know that we have to -- they never say that, and they never talk about how virginia, kaitlan, is going to be probably the first test on how they are perc

if anything there's a lot of questions in europe about his capacity, his authority to get things done. and you know, he went -- the real damage was done because he didn't bring a victory to europe with him. now he's playing catchup. and you know, they get back, but i -- yes, i think it would definitely help him if he gets the deal done. there's a question of reliability among americans. can you deliver? if we get in a conversation with iranians, will you go to a deal that really will stick, that, you know, even if somebody from another party is elected, will that deal still stick? you can't get the iranians to agree to very much unless they have some sense of reliability. and that's true of other hard issues that are coming. like the environment. >> kim dozier, looking at the iran deal, the word is it's possible. that's not a helpful word to me because anything is possible. it's about probabilities. and what do you think that america's role is moving forward with iran? >> you know, yes,'s possible to get them all in the same room again in november, as both sides have hinted. but the f

. >> jumping overseas now, household gas prices are surging across europe. russia, one of europe's biggest natural gas suppliers, is denying its using energy as a political weapon to gain leverage. cnn's matthew chance is live for us in london. matthew, good morning. why are europeans pointing the finger at russia on this? >> reporter: well, the reason is russia is the biggest single supplier of natural gas, household gas to most european countries and most european households. and that natural gas price spiked upwards of 250% in the last several months. the home heating costs is having an impact on industry as well. factories that produce steel or anything like that, they use electricity, energy for gas-powered stations for the most part. an enormous amount of spike in costs and derailing to a certain extent the post-covid recovery. in terms of russia's responsibility, the finger of blame is pointed at moscow for sometime to increase pressure on the europeans to make it more dependent on russian energy. it's all linked with the production, with the implemen

what he panted for the bill to pass when he got to europe and that didn't happen. the separate bill that framework put out would expand the nation's social safety yet. progressives would not support the bill when it goes to the floor for a vote unless it is voted for the same time or at least within hours of the separate bill. they also want assurances from or to democratic senators who have not said yet where they stand in the framework out of the economic bill. those two senators being joe manchin of west virginia and sinema from arizona. we don't know where senator manchin is on this. he put out a framework and said it was a positive statement. he did not outright endorse this framework. the thing is they want to pass these two bills at the sam e time. that will expire december 3. that is the new day that this will expire. the debt ceiling and funding for the government will run out. these are three major issues leaders will have to address when they come back and have to work on this through the next few weeks. talking the debt ceiling and funds running out. le

and how negotiations might go. >> well, these relationships with europe are absolutely vital, because the u.s. does not have a very good relationship with iran at all. it is absolutely rock bottom. and particularly hardliners in charge of iran, this is going to make things much more difficult. and france has been able to have some sort of relationship with iran so they are key to me somehow trying to return to the deal but i would also agree with what has already been said. i think before we get to any cooperation, we're actually going to see more sanctions deployed. and that's because the hardliners in iran seem not open stall to having any kind of deal. so it may be that things get worse whether they get better. >> my colleague jim sciutto pointed out that there are two key figures that are quote/unquote phoning it in. not in rome and in person, china's xi jinping and vladimir putin of russia. they will be attending virtually. i'm wondering how you think that might impact the effectiveness of the summit. >> this is actually a really big problem, though it does give biden an opportun

has been a bit of an outlier in europe, where they're doing much less well than the rest of europe. cases have increased in the u.k. by about 60% over the last month. that particular sort of sub variant of delta has actually been seen in declining quantities in the united states through our surveillance program, but it does bear watching, you need to learn a lot more about it. it does have a mutation in the spike protein. we need to understand if that has implications of the way our vaccine works. there will be more to come on that. >> dr. jonathan reiner, thank you. >> my pleasure. >>> two months since the chaotic u.s. pullout from afghanistan, the top u.s. envoy afghanistan is expected to step down. cnn's alex marquardt is here with details. the biden administration asked this official to stay on after he served in the trump administration. do we know why he's leaving now? >> well, simply put, victor, and alisyn, it's time. he was asked to stay on not just in to the biden administration after serving as the special representative for afghan reconciliation under the trump administr

. >> russia, china and practically all of europe grant six months or more of paid sick leave. 20 million americans go to work sick every year because they can't afford to take an unpaid day off. new moms in canada and japan or russia, they get 52 weeks or more of paid maternity leave and in chile, they gut up to a year and in brazil at least 14 weeks of leave is paid for by the government. and in fact there are only seven nations in the world with no national paid maternity leave. apart from the united states, no other industrialized nations leave new moms out in the cold. well i'm one the faortunate one. but also the time to recover as a new mom from a transformative and very challenging experience of child birth and sleepless nights. after my second child, i developed severe postpartum anxiety. my paid leave through work gave me the time to seek the treatment i needed and to recover mentally before going back to my demanding job. i honestly could not imagine having to deal with the stress of not having paid leave on top of everything i was going through. how is it possible in this day

out what's next for the leadership, who is the next chancellor, this has larger implications across europe. kurtz, as you said, was a young, charismatic leading conservative figure at a time that conservative political parties across the continent are losing momentum, are losing votes. i'm going to give you the example of germany i was there last month when in a stunning defeat angela merkel's center right party lost to the social democratic party. this was a period in which germany is now trying to figure out its future after merkel who is stepping down now after 16 years. so a lot of conservative politicians were looking to kurtz as the sort of new face of that conservative across europe. the other concern here is much like happened in germany with the cdu, with lang merkel's party, that inability to galvanize support, the inability to reach out to voters meant losing the young vote on one end. people wanting a more green agenda, wanting a more progressive agenda and on the other end losing more right wing voters who in germany and austria were gravitating towards more far right groups.

who is the most trusted friend in europe if you sit this trip aside? >> we'll watch over the next few days who is exactly, especially after he mentioned this dustup with macron. we'll see how does this all play out. have the democrats reset the button after the trump administration and they are starting these relationships anew? >> is he weaker or stronger in the sense that the president wanted congressional passage of the infrastructure plan, congressional timeline to pass sweeping spending plan that mostly has nothing to do with foreign affairs except for the climate part of t.biden wanted the wind at his back, personal political momentum and a climate piece that comes at the climate summit that comes at the end of the trip. he does have landmark investments in the framework. not guaranteed to get to the finish line. does he have the wind at the back or are europe dwran leaders looking at joe biden saying you're not donald trump but we're not sure. >> it's interesting if you listened to jake sullivan he was kind of asked these questions saying, look,

so the president leaves for europe tomorrow. g-20, and then cop26, which deals with climate issues, hoping to have something in hand. will democrats send him to europe empty handed? >> well, i think the most important thing is we get this right as you messenntioned ther a few new revenue streams we're looking at now. i know it would be great to have done so the president can talk about this and i still think there is a possibility, but the most important part is we get the provisions right and we're down to just a few final issues. i'm optimistic. >> some big ones and, by the way, we didn't set those deadlines. democratic leadership set the repeated deadlines. are the deadlines -- is the latest deadline not going to happen? >> after almost nine years in congress, i realize the only way congress operates is when we have a deadline it seems like. i understand why people put dates out there to get people talking. at the end of the day, having these huge transformational ideas like not paying more than 7% of your income for child ca

with no deal on the table yet, president biden delaying that trip to europe by a few hours. he was slated to leave this morning. instead, he will leave in the early afternoon. only after first heading to capitol hill for one of these last-ditch efforts to try and convince progressives, it appears, to vote for that infrastructure bill. but there is still no framework deal even if that were to be enough for progressives. though they are still insisting they want to see both move through the house at the same time. amid all of this, progressives losing out, as you just said, on one of the major priorities with this paid medical and family leave to be scratched altogether because of opposition from senator joe manchin, who explained why here. listen. >> to expand social programs when you have trust funds that aren't solvent, they're going insolvent, i can't explain that. it doesn't make sense to me. i want to work with everyone as long as we can start paying for things. that's all. i can't put this burden on my grandchildren. i have 10 grandchildren. i just can't do it. >> repor

president biden is in europe for the g20 and the united nations conference on climate change. let's get a republican perspective. congressman michael mccall, the top republican on the house foreign affairs committee. he represents a district in the austin area of texas? >> austin to houston. >> just broadly, what's the most important issue you want president biden to talk about at the g20 summit? >> for me personally, national security. i think china with their launch of the hypersonic missile that we detected. it's been released now in august. it's a huge, serious threat not only to the united states and our homeland but to the world. these missiles can go undetected. our missile defense systems cannot stop them. and i was disappointed to hear that china is not going to participate in person but rather virtually. and i think the role that china is playing right now is a now global military, economic superpower. needs to be addressed. >> what would you want the g20 to do with china? they will be participating virtually. not sure what they're trying to convey with that. maybe t

so that's what we wanted to send him off to europe with because as kaitlan said, the prpt thing is the build back better framework -- build back better act has over half a trillion dollars investment in climate. it finally makes us a country that has universal child care and pre-k. big investments in housing. really transformative investments in almost every arena, and that's what we wanted to make sure we sent the president off with. now we also believe, jake, that we do need to make sure that we see the bill text, that everybody kind of has an opportunity to make sure the framework is translated well and that's what we were waiting for. because we insisted on that, the legislative text was released finally yesterday. we are combing through a 1600-page bill right now. and i really believe that within a few days, we will be able to pass both these bills through the house. and that will be an enormous accomplishment of the president, of all of us across the democratic caucus and certainly of progressives who are bold enough to say we're not going to leave anybody behind. >> but it's not

. >> we're seeing data from europe, the united kingdom, the fully vaccinated people are being hospitalized and fully vaccinated people are dying from covid and here we have a high profile example that will require more truth, more truth from our government, our health leaders, as well. as we talk about this story on a day state after state and institution after institution are pushing mandates for vaccination. >> seriously? i guess -- yeah, don't be fooled. never learn. don't know any better. i don't know. don't have the chops. i don't know what it is. just -- with a natural instinct not to do something like that. it seems like, you know, any descent human being, no, you just don't -- you know. at least that's how my mama raised me. a man just died and this guy can't wait to make it into a fight about vaccine mandates? it is disgraceful. and then, in a twice deleted tweet fox' john roberts said the fact that colin powell died from a breakthrough covid infection raises new concerns how effective vaccines are long term. he went on to say that he deleted his tweet because people interpreted i

we had a plane not not in the united states but in europe with a bomb believed to be in a pop can. and we had a plan in the middle east to put explosives in ink cartridges and precipitators. and that was, fortunately, only foiled because of some tips the united states got, intelligence information on that. so the threat vectors changed. and so when you do -- when you don't comply with the orders of the flight attendants, for example, take your phone out when they've said, you know, put them away or whatever, those have posed threats. and those are now considered potenti potentially items of danger because they have been used in other attempted plots. >> thank you so much for giving us perspective on this. >>> well, there is more legal whiplash in texas over the state's controversial abortion ban. a federal appeals court panel has temporary reinstated the law that bans abortions as early as six weeks, no exceptions for rape or insist. natasha chen following the latest twist in this battle over a woman's right to choose. two courts, two very different rulings this week leaving texas

world as you can see there is now in the yellow and green, but new infections and fatalities are up in europe. as the global number of new covid infections continues to fall, one of the world's top tourist spots is trying to get up and running again. indonesia's resort island of bali had been off limits to international tourists about a year and a half. now the covid situation is improving. bali is officially reopening its doors to visitors from a select group of countries. let's bring in janice who joins us live from singapore. really tourism is their bread and butter here. the main source of income. this is an important step no doubt for them. >> reporter: that is right, yes, isa. in fact, one minister, the maritime affairs minister pointing out that 54% of bali's revenue comes from the tourism sector. that gives you an idea. so this is a celebratory moment really for those who live on bali whose income and livelihoods rely on all these tourists who come from all over the world. of course, it's a very famous destination. it's been featured in movies as well and in books. so it's something t

. >> a study published in "nature" shows that covid was spreading across europe and the u.s. by january 2020, before a lot of people were even aware this was a real threat outside of china. does that surprise you? >> no. i think when we were first seeing those cases you could assume it was the tip of the iceberg. probably at least 50% of the transmissions are from asymptomatic people. so you knew you were looking at the tip of the iceberg. it doesn't surprise me. >> so we need to, as a world, and as a country, prepare for the next pandemic. it seems likely that there will be another one at some point. what can we learn from this to make sure that the next time a highly transmissible virus is spreading around the world it doesn't go undetected for so long? >> well, you're certainly right. we've had three pandemic potential viruses over the last 20 years. this one was obviously worse. but hopefully we'll learn from this. there certainly has been already much in the way of di co deconstructing all the mistakes in this country. roughly 4% of the world's population and 20% of the

. >> i think about europe. they didn't really get their independence, too. it was the same time the united states was having its war of the many. so in some respects, we're quite old. we've been basically working in our dmok raeg. we've had the civil problems, but i think this is the first time in our memory that our democracy has been so stress tested. this is something we'll have to grapple with. >> what is your message, then, to republicans who support this kind of behavior, support these lies and enable them, essentially? what do you say to them? >> do they want to stay in power at the expense of throwing away a democracy that's been built over the last several hundred years. the united states is something unique and something exceptional. if they don't take a hard look at themselves, we'll go down another path that many other countries around the world, that many americans, immigrants who fled from those countries have tried to turn their back on. there is so many people invested in the future ff, and it's really now resting on what people who were on c

and millions of women across the country are wondering how the president can go to europe and explain that we are going to be one of six countries that don't have paid family leave because one guy says he doesn't want it. i don't know how you explain that. so, look, we haven't drawn red lines, but i just think we need to be really thinking about what we're saying about the united states' leadership with this bill. and the best course of action is to keep negotiating. we are close, but beer not there yet. so let's finish the negotiations and then let's vote both the bif and build back better act out of the house with a commitment from the senate that they're going to do it. we all put together this billionaires tax and senator sinema said she was okay with that. then senator manchin said he didn't like it. so this is what we're dealing with. and this is why we need to have the two of them come to agreement with the rest of us and with the president. we've made tremendous concessions to get them there, but now they need to step up and recognize that we all need the build back better act

and really by comparison, you look at some of these numbers, say, major city across western europe, take london, for example, well known for its rainy conditions, they see a little over 600 millimeters of rainfall every year. but it comes in with rainfall amounts that exceed 540 millimeters in 24 hours. literally almost a london's year worth of rainfall in just one day. and the incredible stark contrast between what's happening on western india where dryer air is locked in place towards eastern india where we have the moisture content through the roof here. we have tropical moisture coming in. monsoonal moisture in place. you look here, the hash lines show you when we expect the monsoons to withdraw out of the this region, and typically where we should be by the latter portion of october is across southern india and we're getting there, but you'll notice where the current position is. it is locked in north towards northeastern india where we have seen some of the heaviest rainfall. isa, this is how it looks in this northern region. we do expect 134 good news. we do expect rainfall to red
