1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,559
Speaker 1: Mitch Mkhan as a US correspondent. He's at the United

2
00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:05,480
Speaker 1: Nations in New York City for US this morning, and

3
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:09,280
Speaker 1: the Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky has sounded the alarm over

4
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:12,479
Speaker 1: the illumining threat of a nuclear disaster there.

5
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, Good morning, Ryan.

6
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 3: A really concerning speech you could say, from Zelenski here

7
00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 3: at the Yuien this morning.

8
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:20,600
Speaker 2: He wore the General Assembly.

9
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 3: That Russia is planning attacks on Ukrainian power plants.

10
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,480
Speaker 2: Zelenski said he recently viewed intelligence.

11
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:30,320
Speaker 3: Reports from his own offices that Vladimir Putin, the President

12
00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 3: of Russia, is receiving detailed information about Ukraine's energy infrastructure.

13
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:39,199
Speaker 3: Zelenski said, any missile or drone strike, any critical incident

14
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 3: in the energy system could lead to a nuclear disaster.

15
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 2: A day like that must never come.

16
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 3: And Zelenski also used his address this morning to remind

17
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 3: the world not to lose focus on his country's plight,

18
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 3: particularly given what's going on in living On and in

19
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 3: the Middle East of the moment.

20
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: What's happening with these intelligence briefings for Donald Trump about

21
00:00:58,440 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 1: assassination attempts.

22
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, so, US intelligence officials have spoken to Donald Trump

23
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 3: and his team about suspected Iranian plots to kill him now.

24
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 3: The briefing was from the Office of the Director of

25
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 3: National Intelligence. Donald Trump's campaign says they are real and

26
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 3: specific threats. They are different from the attempts on his

27
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 3: life earlier this year. In recent weeks in Pennsylvania and

28
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:24,039
Speaker 3: in Florida, Donald Trump posted about this, as he always

29
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:25,400
Speaker 3: does Ryan on social media.

30
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 2: He said, big threats on my life by Iran.

31
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 3: Moves were already made by Iran that didn't work out,

32
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,480
Speaker 3: but they will try again. Not a good situation for anyone,

33
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,039
Speaker 3: and he finished by saying, an attack on a former

34
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 3: president is a death wish for the attacker.

35
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 2: Interesting, Matt, Thank you very much.

36
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,320
