the, the, this is dw, use live from the butler in the us propose to strike you run back some of the issues that have attacked american targets. defense secretary lloyd austin confirms that of washington will take significant action retaliation for the bombing of the us air base and jordan, which killed 3 troops also on the program. us president joe biden issues and executive order targeting is really settlers accused of attacking the palestinians . the occupied territory move comes after a wave of violence in the west bank. and you need a seal. imagine a deal for ukraine. mistakes overcome on gary and objections. unlock

a 50000000000 euro package of the german chancellor, most of the mall of ukraine's european allies should contribute. the no, i'm telling me all that. well, welcome to the program. the us says it's preparing to take significant action against munitions that have carried out attacks on american targets for days to bite an administrator and has been hinting at strikes in retaliation for a joint attack on a remote us military base in northeastern jordan known as tower 20 to 3 american troops were killed in the incident on sunday because the secretary lloyd austin said it's time to take further action against when this is backed by iran that have attacked us forces on land and etc. ranges of the defense secretary went on to say that while wishing to avoid escalating the conflict,

the us would not hesitate to act. the president will not tolerate a tax on american troops. and neither will i. our teammates were killed by radical militias, backed by iran. and operating inside syria and iraq. so this is a dangerous moment in the middle east. we will continue to work to avoid a wider conflict than a region. but we will take all necessary actions to defend the united states, our interest, and our people. and we will respond when we choose where we choose and how we choose alex attack as the director of the around program at the middle east institute in washington dc. and he told us more on the possible targets and timing all of us retaliatory style strikes. i think our timing remains to be seen. clearly the united states needs to act the killing of 3 soldiers

a by this iraq based minutes and group really demands action. and the response it will be significant. i mean, terms of targets on your question. look, it really depends, i think overall, if you look at the axes of resistance that the ryan has been spear heading in recent decades, it's biased from his bow and 11. i just don't mix them. we could call the who these in yemen on the other side. of the middle east, also a proxy of sorts of these dynamic republic. i don't think these organizations will be targeted. i think the us will be very specifically going after those militant groups that have been carrying about a 167 attacks against us forces in iraq and syria. so i think will be very targeted . i don't think it will be a sort of major uh, you know, attack against some of the bigger players in the acts of this resistance like his bullet. it'll be minor groups that of us will go after. so you don't think this

could cause some kind of escalation, the military tensions, particularly after the u. s. a said, it's not seeking war with iran or if you mean escalation, this is a regional war. i don't think that is likely to happen for one simple reason. the united states as white, has made it very clear. he's not interested in regional war. i don't think these rabies are interested in the original war at this point, and certainly the iranians are not interested in regional war. so i think most likely what would happen is clearly you don't want to regional work. you're washington. but clearly you want to make sure you re, uh, you know, reinforce the idea of the terrorist. you have thousands and thousands of american troops across them, at least for them to become that sort of city targets for militant groups, is unacceptable to any american president. and certainly this american president, we just enter election cycle. so for political reasons in the united states, because the reality is on the ground, something needed to be done,

but nothing as large as inviting and regional. what would you just say? i really don't, don't think is of interest of any of the larger players. imagine the political angle that how, how big a part does that have to play as well. it's important, i mean, uh, and for any american president, it would be important when american soldiers are killed overseas and for this particular american president as he's facing at re election, he needed to do something. but at the same time, i think president biden knows that the american public opinion is not interested in or the large war in the middle east. that's the last thing. american public opinion was when you start killing americans, it requires a response and i think they really inside clearly understood that if you noticed the last few days to arrive as trying to distance itself from these proxies. and the proxy group responsible for the attack and jordan has itself not suspend the attacks in the, in the united states. so i think that tells us quite

a bit about where each is coming from and where we're likely to go in the near future. okay, so, so iran as a whole, you would say they don't have a, a major overall objective in, in the backing these groups. well clearly right does have a long term objective and that goes back to the reading revolution of 1979 to to keep colors to that one is to basically bring the end of the state of israel. the other one is to push the united states out of the middle east, but that's a long term strategy of the reading and regime if you listen to the reading. and so peter comedy, he's not asking for more and these are used to be met next week. or next month or even next year, he's saying that's a long term strategy. now that's a whole different issue and how to west deals with ad requires, you know, the strategy on the part of west, which frankly doesn't exist right now. but in the short term, as i said, i doubt very much anybody's interest in regional award that would essentially put everybody at a loss. okay. alex attack a director of the run program at the middle east institute in washington dc. thank

you very much for your insights. you of us president joe biden has issued an executive order imposing sanctions on is rarely settlers and the occupied westbank after a wave of violence. measures include financial and travel restrictions on a small number of settlers accused of violent attacks on palestinians. now these really prime minister's office has criticized the sanctions as unnecessary and describe the vast majority of settlers as law abiding the state of these washington bureau chief. and as paul told us more about the presidents, latest executive order executive orders enables united states to impose financial sanctions and individuals who are i quote here, directing or participating in certain actions including x of threats, of violence against civilians intimidating and civilians to force them out of their

homes, destroying or seizing property or engaging in terrorist activity in the west banks . we typically see these types of financial sanctions targeting russians or citizens of states that the us as an open the conflict was. but we have never seen that type of thing is really citizens. i think it is fair to say that this is the most significant step. any us administration in history has taken and responds to violence, but it's rarely sets us against palestinian civilians in the west bank and indeed prove so great the frustration of the by the administration. but not only that, it also underscores the men's pressure president biden faces in this year, which is just the beginning of the crucial presidential election year. 70 percent of his policy disapproves office is rally is right. israel policies,

sorry. and indeed risks losing crucial support from blackboard. those young voters, and of course, arab americans, if he is unable to make. so a pressure on israel to commit to lossing ceasefire and degree to us to stay solution that it's no incident that this order comes right in the moment before president biden was on his way to michigan. this is an important spring stage. it was a large area of american community, dudley's in his paul from washington. a cutoff says how mazda has given an initial positive response to a new c swap, a proposal for guys a us injunction. and tati mediators med is really intelligence officials in paris on sunday. they offered how much 6 week pause in the war and then exchange of hostages for palestinian prisoners. how boss is considered a terrorist organization by multiple countries? cuts out previously negotiated

a week long pause in the fighting in november. let's look at some of the stories from around the world for just as a flash, the police and i didn't. tina have to demonstrations of a sweeping economic reforms proposed by president when they lawmakers are discussing the controversial bill that includes handing the president, emergency pause issues, including the economy and security urgency, no suffering from hyperinflation. running out over 200 percent thousands of people are the so the vacuum capital branch as a level have protested against the government's plans to abolish the role of a special, special prosecutor. below would hand back house to regional jurisdictions to deal with organized crime. opposed to changes include also include reducing punishments for a raft of crimes including corruption. it's you leaders of praise, the passage of a new 50000000000 euros support package for ukraine. european council,

president of shaw michelle said before you deal with issue long term predictable funding for ukraine after hungry is prime minister of it to open. finally dropped weeks of opposition. ukraine has faced increasing uncertainty over age funding because of political advising. in the end, the us gary and prime minister victor all done once again in the spotlight in brussels, which he again block, then you a package for ukraine as he did last december. he did not, or he, so we got the 27 heads of state and government to reach political agreements, which will allow us to mobilize safety, ex, revealing due risk as part of the ukraine facility, return. the packages intended to help you create incurs bunch of gaps and pay salaries and services in the years 2024, to 2027. the relief at reaching the necessary unanimity as palpable society. this is, of course,

a good message for the citizens of ukraine who are so challenged by the russian war of aggression. but of course, also for us as the repeating union, which has shown that it can stand together. the you is withholding funding from hungary because of concerns about the root overall hungary has blocked you decisions on separate issues. some of you need us make clear what they think of victo all bunch tactics. there's no problem with so called to young. you know, you're quite in fact the issue we have for the month at the end of the investments we have so many things to, to solve. i don't want to use the words like made, but i don't know why she has had her better words. hungary itself rejects these accusations in return for all one's concession. you leaders have agreed to remain flexible when it comes to paying out the new age to ukraine. the big question now is civic dog on change of heart be permanent. now while progress has been made inside of the european headquarters and brussels outside things came to a stand,

still, protesting farm was blocks the streets with the tractors and through fire crackers, eggs, and buckles and police. they're angry about rising cost and bureaucracy. the farmers out in force in brussel days located parts of the belgian capital demand more help with rising costs associated use. assume that you're trying to make people aware of the conditions for farmers who read on. so a vice from people could go hungry so far. so if i put some police assembled near the u. headquarters were fires blazed as the farmers gathered, we are right in the middle of the european union in port for in processing. these slaves that you see are just an expression of some of the anger on the streets. and of course, not only anger filling the square, but also tractors, traffic in the area, growing to a home with more than a 1000 tractors,

going nowhere, agricultural subsidies already make up a significant slice of the budget. and the book is trying to make good on climate promises, but these farmers insist they are getting a real deal with too much red tape. making us feel no more and to some of the best ones we have to. we have people who work with the us with nature, the people who manage this assistant desks. unfortunately, they probably know nothing about an age in this, but at my best to accept that through my, the voice mail. in response to your reply to protests, the eu has moved to temporarily relax some green farming rules, unlimited cheaper imports from ukraine to the full not found this. those are old sites. we see you and we hear you. and if you voice, you want your voice to be hubs make it had also in june. when you vote for the european parliament elections about this effort to cool tensions, hasn't yet cleared the air was indeed all the news stay with us up next doc
