4:04 pm
some more than 50 or so in the 4 hours the media, the off, the quaid and authority. so i wondering analogy and caution that some more of the shots could come in the coming days complicating those rest of your efforts further . now, taiwan lies on the pacific ring of fire, a well known for being an earthquake hot spot. and as a result, it does have measures in place to protect against them. how well did preparations hold off in this like yeah, what is a rightly points out of high one that has a very well the world's response mechanism to this type of natural disaster. it's one of the most size indicate active regions in the well to the very used to this type of activity. it will be, it may be not only on the scale that we seen today, but i really did spring into action today. we've had the entire ones present saying that the ministry was going to be dispatched to these areas. and of course, i mean this is something, but it's, i want to talk to,
4:05 pm
to really learn from past experiences resort in 1999. this is a really prince columbus or taiwan, where i really pass last week about the same are going to be sold today. killed some, 2000 people and left tons and tons of thousands of buildings damaged. and it was really also that moment that we saw most stringent regulation come into force in taiwan for quite proved infrastructure. and you know, although we have seen a pretty significant degree of damage today, it's fat to say the, you know, without those experiences without bots in building knowledge, that's why one has to deal with this type of natural disaster. the situation could have been much worse. and what kind of international response have we seen while a number of countries are really concerned that they were going to be in some, in some way implicated in the immediate off them off of this i was quite besides, craig was powerful enough, but it was folks in shanghai and of course, as i mentioned that in that reports, you know, me evaluations, warnings were issued in japan and the philippines again. um, late uh,
4:06 pm
withdrawal and, and it seems that no major damage has been reported in either of those countries. but of course, the attention already time. so those, those rescue efforts in taiwan a number of countries have said that they're willing to provide disaster relief to taiwan if the government to says it's required. thank you so much for that. that is james at cheater for us and type pay for ministers from nato countries are meeting in brussels to discuss maintaining a long term support for ukraine. state or chief in fulton park is proposing the creation of a 100000000000 euro funds to bolster caves defenses over the next 5 years. and i was supposed to move as part of a push for the alliance to take over. the us led a group that coordinates weapon shipments to ukraine. data was seeking to reduce its dependence on us, where a $60000000000.00 you printing a package has been installed in congress for months, spelt and burg, also told members of the price,
4:07 pm
but the security of the block depended on bolstering the rule of law throughout the world's a do crane will become a member of nato. it is the question when, nope, if tomorrow we also need to, well, we're in the pacific partners, australia, the seasons are pano southcourt out together with the european union. we know that our security is now regional. it is global. the war in the crane industry. it's this clearly rush of friends, the nation are vital for continue. it's war of aggression. signed laws popping up the rest of the war economy in return, most goal is mortgaging its future to bridging north korea. i'm a wrong are the living substantial supplies of weapons and ammunition in return from young. i'm fed on receiving russian technology supplies that help them advance. let me start
4:08 pm
a new fate capabilities this as the regional um global security consequences. so like minded nations around the world needs to stand together to defend a global order rule by law not by force. to have these brussels correspondence, terry schultz has more on what the foreign ministers will be focusing on as well with tomorrow, being the 75th birthday of nato's founding. the very much want to use this as a celebration of the longevity of the alliance. the fact that has been able to pull together through many challenges in the past, even though they're facing a truly x, a central one today in the eyes of, of many nato allies. so they'll be talking a lot about unity and about how they are able to withstand whatever comes their way . i mean, it's not just russia that's also cyber. it's also challenges of from some of the asian countries like china. so this is going to be something that they're very much talking about. and as secretary general's tools and berg mentioned,
4:09 pm
expanding nato's partnership, not his presence in terms of being a military alliance, but in terms of reaching out hands and, and having more crop cooperation with particularly those countries depends south korea, australia, and new zealand. and tear, i'd like to hear a little bit more about this new ukraine fund, nato. chief in stoughton parks. i saying this is sunday, a strong message to rush. i can you tell us a little bit more about it and how united nato members are on it? so that's right, this is something they're really cheating up for the washington summit that takes place in early july. they are not expected to grant you crane membership as keep would like at the summit. but they do want to extend a solid package of support. and as you mentioned earlier, there's a lot of concern about where the us will stand, not necessarily in july, but after november. and so they want to make sure that this group that was founded . in fact, by the us defense secretary, lloyd austin,
4:10 pm
the ramstein group will continue in some form after the elections, no matter what happens there. and that's why they've been talking for some time about moving some of those responsibilities in the us led group under nato. that would make sure that no matter what happens in elections there or in any other country for that matter, that this kind of cooperation with ukraine would go on and then it gives them a way to ensure you claim that you may not be ready for membership now in july, but we will be there and we will help shepherd you along the way. so that's something they're going to be trying to get on the same page here as of this meeting. but we're already hearing that hungry is a going to be a post do it. now, putting of course, has been re elected as president earlier this year, and many leaders in europe worry that this could further in bold and him. can you tell us more about how concerned nato is about russia's next steps as well? i don't think anyone expected any other result out of those russian elections and it's hard to see how the president could become more brutal when it comes to
4:11 pm
ukraine. so i think everyone was ready for that. and of course, we hear that now he's going to launch a new conscription campaigns that he has even more bodies to throw at that war, which is a big concern for everyone here. this ukraine package that i'm talking about is going to be something that helps them and they will also be discussing, you know, what more support countries can give by laterally to ukraine. they can't control what russia does. all they can do is try to help you frame was found whatever comes next. thank you so much. as always, that is d w as brussels correspondent terry shells for us. this. so as nato gets set to, especially mark it's 75th anniversary tomorrow. it is also looking to the major challenges that it will face in the future. the military alliance was founded in the wake of the 2nd world war to counter the perceived threat posed by the person, the soviet union, largely with germany playing a reduced role. but many of berlin's partners say it's time for that to change. nato's 1st secretary general lord is may famously said the alliance was created in
4:12 pm
1949 to keep the soviets out, the americans again, and the germans down 75 years later, the doesn't. the original members have added 20 more. they're still focused on keeping russia out as it wages award, the borders of the alliance, and the americans in as a central guarantors of europe, security. but the original desire to keep germany down is long gone. and some observers accuse berlin of using history as an excuse to under perform in military spending and readiness. being down off to the end of the gulf war really became the thing on it, but it meant free writing. and what you can see now is an increasing number of countries gaining up on germany, and rightly so, because they've got the memo that they've understood what needs to be done that point. and that purpose and how to do it until berlin gets that though we won't see the necessary unity and you're up to actually achieve that goal. that message that
4:13 pm
any crack in need of cohesion or capabilities could encourage kremlin aggression, is regularly reiterated by frontline allies feeling more vulnerable since moscow launched full scale war and ukraine in 2022 countries. lake is sonia, where it's not just the 75th anniversary. as nato's founding, after world war 2, but also of the brutal soviet exile of thousands of citizens, my mother was deported on her 15th birthday on, on uh, default of march, uh, 1949 mazda on a sunday. it has the farm on valley lands that was heat biogen and bolt the $9041.00. so i'm perfectly example of how it seems to be caught in the middle. these days, the middle for european allies may feel like it's between moscow in washington to the concern about declining us. support for trans atlantic ties, especially ahead of november elections that could bring the anti nito donald trump back to power the 1st term to them. of course was not an easy time oliver,
4:14 pm
but to at that time you could still hope but to brush as also stake and his relationship boot. but weston both has a motor, a think effect on its behavior nowadays, no longer my case. let me bring it by decided to conduct a special military operation. get this out. what we hope for when the bowling ball came down. clearly, no jimmy shays. i'm plenty of anniversaries in almost 4 decades at nato. his last post dealing with emerging security challenges to be fit for future birthday, she says the alliance needs to also see beyond russia, allies a face of all forms. that's right. and if nato doesn't help them a deal with those of the crisis, right? what would be climate change or cyber attacks? so, you know, critical infrastructure protection or whatever it will be less relevant in those particular capital was for almost 75 years. basically the lives has
4:15 pm
shielded our nations on this, on a bursary, though, amid all the praise for nato's longevity, there's broad agreement that the best way the alliance can defend itself against future russian advances is ensuring there's a russian retreat now in ukraine to let's bring you up to speed now with some other world news headlines, egyptian state media saves the bodies of 64, and 8 workers, hills and is really air stripes. have been brought across the border from garza. the victims include citizens of australia, poland, the u. k, and u. s. were working for the andrea world central kitchen, a policy and staff member was also killed. israel has blamed the strikes on a mis identification and called them a grave mistake. zimbabwe has declared it's ongoing drought, a national disaster authorities, a $2000000000.00 and $8.00 as needed to prevent millions of people from starving
