bringing a life threatening winds and storm searches. officials report expensive damage on several islands in the region. the hello, i'm terry martin. good to have you with us on gary, in private as a big to or botanist making his 1st trip to ukraine since rushes full scale invasion in 2022. he's meeting with ukrainian president below of them is the landscape to discuss what or bond called building peace talks come on one day after hungry, assume the rotating presidency of the european union and put the gold ties between which even budapest are known to be tense or bundle is rushed as strong as to ally the e u. n. has block measures to extend a to ukraine to help the country defend itself against russia's invasion or more of

this. let's bring in our correspondence in ukraine and brussels. nick connelly there and you can about richard in brussels. nick, what can you tell us about this meeting? well, terry versus few details as ever. this wasn't announces, wasn't crowd involved. security reasons. lots of head scratching, going on and kept people trying to work out what exactly the big old lawn has brought with him and why. now this is his 1st visit in 12 years. so just to kind of get some context, the last ukraine you present, you may think it was picked again, a coverage that for russian leader who flipped the country for myself and my own purchase in 2014 and you know, pretty story given the fact that hungry has a border with ukraine, this is a neighboring country, kind of that has a significant gary minority. so that gives you an idea quite how bad relations have been. and now you know that question, why now, why did he, you know, boy basically care for the 1st to know if he is the will when basically all of that will lead is found the time to make the journey. and so far pretty. yeah. press

fiance's big question marks indeed a bounce. this is victor over his 1st visit. the keeps since the war started as nick just pointed out, it comes just one day after hungry took over the european union presidency. what message is back to or been trying to convey to victor alba and wants to talk about the apos to piece in a key. if it's a presidency. lensky, that's what pre here from the gary and presidency. but the best of the fund re, to the you here in the process could not specify what that exactly means. and if all, but has some new proposals and in his pockets you presidents to do that. they travel to hotspots around the world and also to conflict zones. and the last president has done that. so it's also a kind of a, of a courtesy call if you can, can name it like that, but the position of hungary to what's the ukraine has no change so far. you hungry

is trying to block and help for hunger for ukraine and military aid. the, at every step of the way that the us doing. nick, what can you cranes, president, hope to achieve from this meeting with autobahn, a man who has made no secret of his close ties? 2 months ago? i think for me, you, for a new perspective, it's all about demons. invitation. they realized that big gold mine is never going to become a full throated support of you, frank. but what they can do is try to do deals. we've seen victo bonds using his rear rejection, his looking of the crane as leverage to get all the things from the funds that were built because of global concerns. other things like that. so try to move it away from that kind of big, kind of ideological level to more concrete deal. so just hope that hungry gets out the way. nathan negotiations don't seem to go in any way, you know, always that's less relevant now than the you have to have the some speculation that

maybe he might bring some secret messages, some kind of back channels information for most go see a bit of best in close contact with the thirty's in russia, but that doesn't seem too convincing. there are lots of all the back to intermediaries who aren't quite as top of that can seem from a different inspect. it has to be said if it's open to someone who for me for a 2nd is hopefully basically reinforcing runs were some narrative to hear about a military operation. here the rest was coming out. robin was saying that ukraine should remain above his own 3 in the you and russia, and you know, he will. so once even said ukraine was no longer silver and was basically a puppet state of the west. so these are all things that don't go down. well, and you crank and have little people to be very, very nervous and very critical about anything he's going to say today. having to found a hungry has worked within the you in a to we can support from ukraine has blocked a to every step of the way. as you pointed out, could victor or button now use hungary e u presidency. to do more of that, you know, the rotating presidency has actually no additional paula. it is that to moderate

and to find common ground amongst the member states and hungry is the only member of state that is opposing the coming position. all other member states of the use support ukraine and reduce so as long as it takes and the same also, the place applies to nato, but hungry is also uh on a very low li position. the 32 other member states say be want to support you for him, but hungry up that out of a long term plan of nate to to support hungry to support you. print it. sorry. benz. thank you very much. that was our correspond it badly get there in brussels and nick connelly in ukraine. while you cranes, battlefield position has been largely static for months. now in the coming weeks, ukraine's nato partners are due to begin delivering f. 16 fighter jets, the president blowing the landscape has been requesting since rushes invasion. yes,

explains are among the most sophisticated weaponry being supplied to ukraine, but they're unlikely to be an immediate game changer. they are sleek, supersonic, and loud. f sixteens fighting falcons are by no means the most advanced fighter jets. in fact, the 1st were delivered in 1976. they now cost upwards of $60000000.00 euros each and or among the most versatile ariel weapons available to any military power. useful for ukraine defensively, and often simply we have agreed new, more ambitious depends bounds laws are delivering more forces higher than this investing and high end capabilities. a stumbling block for the f sixteens is that they require extensive training training that some ukrainian pilots have been getting on a fast track basis for many months. here in france and other locations,

they probably are already meant to be prepared. they're all between $21.23, but they're already what is the ties on? i mean, in the coming months ukraine could have about a dozen pilots ready to fly up sixteen's, probably about 20 in total by year's end. meaning, ukraine's air force will likely have more f sixteens, then qualified pilots to fly them. meantime, russia now knows full well that the f sixteens are coming to see on the should. yeah, russia is striking. all airfield is always potential at 16 bases every day. i including attempts to damage air strips and infrastructure for the poor thing for us to rush as president. well, in north korea noted that have 16 jets can strike from ukraine into russian territory. if there's a good window showing you that the late and the violates the international responsibilities that the western countries to as mission of one of the

analysts see the f sixteens with their modern radar systems emissions, and jamming capabilities as an important upgrade of ukraine's arsenal. they'll support ground troops and be able to intercept russian attacks in a way far superior to ukraine's soviet era. mig 29. the. the jets will also require parts and maintenance and diverted defense capabilities while on the ground. whether they're a game changer against russia, it may be, as some experts have indicated that by putting enough game changers into the mix, ukraine may eventually be able to change the game. christopher morris is a member of the piece conflict and security resource group at the university of portsmouth in england. i asked him how useful the 16th will be for you crane's military and what kind of missions they will be used for to useful absolutely. game

changes, unfortunately, not so much. so one of the things that they're going to be absolutely essential for is plugging into effectively the defense system that ukraine has. so they're going to be very capable in that role. and also that going to be good at pushing back some of the russian jets. now, we're not, we're going to be seeing some very interesting missions from you that succeeds things like, you know, long range strikes and supporting the troops on the front line. they're probably not going to be used in hatchway combat as they probably not going to be used for, you know, things like place ground supports in proximity to the front line. but yeah, they're going to be very helpful. the radars, with the real quick where they're going to be very useful in kind of pushing back the expression just depending on what, what the systems they kind of are packaged with. they could make a tangible change to the bathroom which is unfolding. but in terms of fundamentally shifting the balance of the conflict, well, that's unfortunately unlikely. ukraine's partners have so far agree to supply just over 80 f sixteens. is that enough? and can they be deployed fast enough to make a real difference?

now what we're talking about here is effects we providing a country that is previously operates it aging service at craft with, you know, relatively modern. we're talking ninety's era weston nato kit. now usually this would be a generational project tasting in excess of the decade for pilots in grand cruise to build up, the aggregates experience in the industry are required to operate these just effectively. what's being accomplished in ukraine is incredible, but it is being done very rapidly. so in terms of the ability for these, you know, h, u, so at craft to really shift the balance of conflict. it's a very good stuff. but, you know, integrating the ground forces is going to be mentioned difficult and you know, in terms of them having an immediate, in a game changing fact, i would be hesitant to predict bought are now russia has been attacking ukrainian air fields. uh, it says, just today that is destroyed,

some of ukraine's jet fighters. how vulnerable christopher will the f sixteens be to attack? well, now, this is one of the obvious reasons, the rest of these guys try and take that. going to try and take out the ground based and disrupt, you know, it's a car easy. it targets, unlike the succeeds themselves, it doesn't move around. now fortunately, ukraine doesn't have the benefits of unit limits of data defense. this would be an immensely costly kind of process for virtue to seriously engage with ya. on the one hand, they can absolutely strike these bases with long range ground type weapon systems. but you know, they really want to take them out. they've got to have to engage in some kind of salty into ukraine and you know, they don't want to be risking that raffle is either. so yes was that is a type sake, but we can predict the restroom is going to be employed in terms of carrying itself . you know, it's going to be difficult for them as well. or ukraine says, is considering stationing some of the new f sixteens in other eastern european

countries, such as poland. how might russia respond to that christopher as well. now in terms of what is going to be station in power and is going to be necessary now in terms of establishing like serious maintenance kind of deputies style maintenance in ukraine. that's difficult. again, they used to operate single say, be attack, wrap their room ways and i know how you deal on the ground based infrastructure was and also that we might desire as well. apparently, nobody operates that succeeds and it would make an ideal location to serious maintenance, as well as training. now, in terms of how russia might react best, let me look into like that. and i, poland is already kind of b fingers that defense and, and i am preparing for russian. i spoke with miss chief and incursions. of course, you've also got to balance that against the fact that she was kind of already doing everything. it really does to do in terms of interfering with nathan members. so you know, that was easy. that's cause for concern, but i wouldn't be too worried that chris or thank you very much for talking with us

. that was christopher morris there from the university of portsmouth. thank you so much. and stay in ukraine authorities there, say they have arrested for people after security services, oil, what they say, we're plans for a russian back to attempt. the domestic intelligence agency says a group of conspirators ad plotted to start a riot storm, the parliament building, and then replaced the leadership on sunday during constitution day celebrations. key or claims that has been the target of several coupons over the last few years. are now european security and bi lateral ties have taught the agenda of talks between german chancellor. all of schultz and police prime minister don't tell us. can warsaw shots travel to poland with 12 govern government ministers? said they discussed boosting defense cooperation, including

a strong nature of presence on the eastern plank to deter which reading from russia enough to pronounce it also spoke of other lateral initiatives that they would work on together when people are the 1st such consultations since 2018. i think that has yet started yet by funding mean typically it's not the role. and this was bringing our chief political editor mechanic costa became a how are transfer shots and prime minister to is planning to improve cooperation between germany and poet as well. there's hold on, so there's a lot of biological working groups that suppress confidence between the 2 is just drawing to a close with questions that and following this meeting with a dozen diamond ministers and it doesn't pull this ministers on the other side. this bilateral cabinet meeting, they publish something called the german polis action plan, 40 pages of mainly, and announcements of what will happen in the future. best a cool operation. this sounds like something that should be different between the 2

countries, but after the peace government pretty much a run and i'm to europe and particularly on st. germany who's it? this is a tangible sign that on the donald task, the very european friendly form, a president of the european council. this is a new era of german polish relations. but i have to say with very little a concrete outcome to show. and this begins with the 1st chapter on the historical context and that points to what dental task is applicants, if he wants to cooperate with germany in the future. a lot of sentiments, a very broad sentiment, inputted society that germany still always poland, big time. that's why reparations was once again a topic, but to stay with what the concrete outcome is, by lots of working groups on things ranging from the environment to that eastern

flank. that's poland represents within nato, towards russia. they, the 2 countries want to work together before they put post proposals on the table within a 2 no, poland, borders, ukraine, of course, and the war and ukraine is a key point in discussions between the german and polish leaders. understand what have you heard from schultz and task task on that point as well, that's what both countries we need complete e c i to i in terms of backing up the ukraine for as long as it takes. that's what both have said. the polar side, of course, having in the past been the one of the morning of russian aggression. something that was not touched by the past. governments here in germany. well, i've sold was already the vice chancellor. now he was this woody and the joint paper also reads like a list of price of points ranging from ukraine where both reiterate that they will continue to back ukraine with of course,

during the ruling out sending that cruise missile system that ukraine so badly at once towers is the name at the same time as mention of bella bruce, also being a huge concern, particularly also for poland. but again, we won't see me in poland. have separate takes on that the value to work within the european union and within nato, in pushing further to keep europe together. because this is the added pressure that's now coming from the that 1st round of french selections. it will be more difficult to have french present emanuel my call completely on this side. not because he thinks otherwise, but because fonts has become, will become more difficult for him to govern, most likely and his is now more of an emphasis on the german polis. x axis rather than the weimar triangle, which includes thoughts, became

a thank you so much. our chief political editor became a customer, a quick look at a few other stories making news around the world. israel's military has bordered palestinians to evacuate parts of con eunice and southern gaza. the move could mean the return of ground troops to the area several weeks after they pulled out. israel's military service, the militant group islamic jihad recently fired rockets from a site nearby. us supreme court test rules that donald trump cannot be prosecuted for actions done within his constitutional powers. during his time, as president justices wrote that he can be tried. however, for unofficial, i mean the partial immunity ruling. further delays trumps the trial over his attempts to block the transition of power. following the 2020 election a long time donald trump allies, steve bannon has been taken into custody of the u. s. federal prison to begin
