the, the, you're watching due to the news coming to live from berlin, nato marx 75 years with a call for more assistance for you prayed to support your cream. so child it is a for to, to grant it is an investment of our own security. that is, as the kremlin warrens that russia and nato are now in direct confrontation. meanwhile, germany's defense ministers has securities for us to europe are rising. for us to stories vows to make them put in despair, a more effective ally within nato. so on the show outrage of grows over israel's definitely attack on a workers and gaza. the n g of world central kitchen is demanding on independence

investigations. the strikes that killed 7 of his staff groups founder says they were deliberately targeted the and quite richardson welcome made. it was marketing it's 75th anniversary, with the alliances representatives, vowing to keep supporting ukraine's fight against russia's invasion. nato is waiting a plan to provide long term support for ukraine. it has a currently folder by individual member states. meanwhile, the kremlin says it's relations with nato are now on the level of open confrontation made so it's 75, but things sounds guessing any easier with age, despite the fine for the alliance is facing huge challenges from this right posed

by restroom and ukraine and beyond to a potential of 2nd, donald trump presidency in the united states trumps and may to critic the alliances heck, stress the need for united stand europe needs america for its security. at the same time, north america also needs europe to head off the trump threat stokes and back suggests may turn members could setup a 150 on the right funds to provide a big slice submitted creates ukraine over the next 5 years. you will see says nato should have a more direct role in delivering that side. a change from the current setup where the us a loan is largely responsible. h q a and e s. foreign minister told d w that should happen whoever the next us president is because people are saying, you know, that we need to take this, this step part of this measure because of the election. i don't think that it's it's, it's right because it, if i read in a position, so i think it's best to have

a different concept in mind. you know, we do what's right. we do what is needed for nato security. we do what's needed for ukraine, security and ukraine spectrum. russia has intensified. it's may solve a tax on ukraine in recent weeks with the war now into its 3rd year, ukraine's foreign minister says what the country really needs is more air defense systems from the west. i don't want to spoil the party, but of course my message is a birthday party for my main main main message today will be better because saving you creating a live savings for an economy saving pregnancy just depends on the availability of categories and other air defense systems seem ukraine and we're talking about petra's, because it's still in the system that can intercept ballistic missiles. west and allies have been hesitant on this points, but the ukraine that would be cause for the biggest celebration of all the. earlier i ask political consultants for free, as opposed to you if russia is once again,

the biggest threat to nato. i mean is clearly the number one for it, the other ones, uh, terrorism being another one and kind of growing. and i would say uh, be younger region and dishes, uh china. but to actually securely uh, close to an existential threat to nature. and, and there i think the launch, these are 2 phase one is obviously spend more money in acquiring and requiring defense capabilities that that'd be longer loss. so this invested after the end of the code. well, i'm still going to allow ukraine to really we dislike. because if you crank fails to detect a successful russia and ukraine would be extremely cost intensive and resources and see for the alliance. so our interest is also to make you quite successful and what has been announced over the last few days, as is ryan encouraging by piece. i don't think, you know, as

a game changer to allow ukraine to really start to finish this for this property as opposed to a very political consultants and ceo at rest most in global. now here in germany, the war and ukraine has prompted the government to reassess the state of its military forces and their combat readiness. german defense minister boers. the story as has laid out ambitious plans to reform the buddhist fair and its overall structure type. the new setup will include the creation of a force that specializes in electronic and cypress more fair. so just wanted to minutes. germany's also considering re introducing compulsory military service, which it had ended in 2011 times and are now speaking in berlin story. as i said, the reforms would be a boon to both in germany and it's nato allies. the other basically with we all know that the security threats in europe have intensified. it must be clear to everyone that we're defending our country and our lines partners, and that with this step, we're also making it clear that no one should even think of protecting us as natal

territory. i'm so guys, let's get more on this from data on these political correspondence, emily and guardian. and will you tell us what is changing with these new plans? i mean this reform really boils down to 2 changes. one is at the top, when it comes to the command of the say as a hole in the positive would have one come on for national machines and one come on from international machines. these 2 are now being merged into one point of contact . this is purchase standards along many nature countries and german who's just now getting in line with that. and the 2nd big change is to the structure of the forces . so traditionally you would have the ground forces, the air force, the navy. and now on top of that, what they're introducing is possible. reform is a cyber security and information force. and this new force will be responsible for defending the country and cyber attacks, but also potentially also carrying out cyber attacks themselves. and um, this reflects obviously the new reality of how wars being carried out. and we're

announcing forms of hybrid wolf. and this is one way of determining trying to prepare itself. so that's not the defense minister. of course, the story is introduced. all of these changes, ultimately, to make germany combat ready and all of this in life of russia's invasion of ukraine. and do these reforms and structural changes go far toward addressing what has been some of the major criticisms of the germans in despair, namely that it is under funded and under equipped as well the so on. so the map is know, these are internal structural changes to make an ultimately the boom to spit out, ready to defend its it's the country but also to defend the nato alliance. because in the past, it restructures towards catering through international missions such as the un mission. and molly, the reality, you know,

has changed now with russia's invasion of ukraine. but these structural reforms don't mean that the budgets of concerns go away, right? so we know that's 5, by the end of 2027. the special, the special budget of a $100000000000.00 euros will run out. today, boards to stores the german defense minister reiterated that for next year already he named 6 and a half 1000000000 euros. more in his budget's um, the german government is going is a big bunch of donations this month. and it's really not entirely clear how much money, how much more money the german defense ministry gets. on top of that, the german defense most, the german one instead of german forces had a huge problem in guessing, uh, new personnel. and that is something that the structural form doesn't last address . thank you very much. i believe that his date of use put a corresponded emily guarding we can take a look now with some other stories making news around the world. armed resistance
