liberated in a secret operation the scorching heat twice, blankets, so that you're from the bulk. and so far as well to mitigate the health risks as of temperatures, so over 40 degrees. so the fuel gal. welcome to the program. germany's um, forces have been promised to much needed financial boost after the capital to prove the countries the annual budget for 2025. but the $1000000000.00 euro increase is much less than the defense minister asked for. and it comes at a cost a to ukraine will be slashed as well as funding for foreign service and humanitarian programs. a, with a war in europe, germany has pledge to boost spending on its own policies. that means expensive.

things like these military exercises, recruiting new personnel and modernizing weapons won't come cheap. there's also the new $5000.00 soldier free gate. germany has begun to deploy to lift away the defense minister bar has been story as a set cost brand new level, military preparedness, which means kick for the economy is what can i do? i was another conflict we mother seemed ready to buy twins on 29th next tuesday. so . but how does that? so it with a type fiscal rules championed above all by finance minister christy. and let me know if he's committed to the debt break. not living beyond the countries means and he has the backing of chancellor schultz. the result is the budget plan for 2025 and beyond. pressed out between the 3 government parties earlier this year will main cuts in some areas and smaller increase has been hooked and out of the gym and foreign ministry. once an increase of more than a 1000000000 euros and its funding for administer and the leading a bet,

bulk points to increasing tensions around the globe spots the budget proposal would give it a 1000000000 euros. lex, some will that will hit the manage, cherry and support for people in the middle east and ukraine. the international development ministry is also due to receive opinion bureaus less than before. a cost of about 9 percent of the budget could make less german, a for the world's poorest. it's no certainly foreign policy under the knife. the government's plan would also cost money to support the unemployed and pension is in gemini as the gym and economy has been weakening, spelled and says tough choices have to be made. the hope of many is that when the final decisions all made, those choices did not. we can gym and these volts it will defense. a benjamin tyler sees a policy extend security analyst with a democratic strategy. strict strategy initiative as to how what it keeps should be

about to germany slashing direct military aid to ukraine. you have should be very worried because this is not what your grade needs. it's frankly not what your opinion security needs, and it's not what germany needs. this budgets reflects the lack of seriousness with which the current german government is taking, the worsening geo political situation. and it also reflects the inability to actually make those hard choices that your board talked about a lot of services driven by watts. do you think an unwillingness to face up to the challenges that are actually manifest now that's in terms of the threat for russia, the threat that we wouldn't be directly exposed to should we filed defeat russia and ukraine, but also the vulnerability that might be created by us withdrawal from its commitment to europe, or even just the softening while we connect of that commitment. because we currently like the means to adequately defend ourselves to adequately to, to russia. and this level of spending a 1000000000 increase when a 6000000000 increases us. for ma'am,

you've seen 20 years of neglect creating something like a 600000000000 euro hole in the defense budget overall is probably not up to the job. right. so you think that this piece, 1000000000, uh, your increased? no, it won't even touch the sides. exactly. well, but that's right. and it's a lot less than a bar as the story is asking for. so christie linked the german of finance minister to explain so that ukraine will get enough funding from the u. n. g 7. clearly you don't think it's as simple as that. i thought because it revolves around the question of what is enough and enough to keep your credit in the fight in a few credit to keep ukraine's budget taking over maybe. but we should be in it to win that we should be aiming to win. and frankly, we haven't even try it yet. we are currently pursuing a policy that exposes us to all the costs of defeat while giving us none of the benefits of victory in ukraine. this tends to create a geo political grays on in the heart of europe that will only breed chaos and instability going forward, which will raise the need to actually further res,

defense spending and future. and thinking that germany is having difficulty maintaining that level of 2 percent of g d p on defense. now wait until that tries to get to 3 and a half percent or more. let's talk about i'm the so we've got the defense budget increase rate but, but the, the budget for international aid has been hopped. does not matter. it does matter, but i think this is actually one of the better signs in this budget. and that's, that's a controversial thing to say, but why do i say it? because it does show some semblance of strategic thinking, which the essence of strategic thinking is, prioritization and prioritization doesn't mean getting rid of unimportant things. that means getting rid of important things that are not the most important and it has been recognized of international aid right now is less important than defense. the big problem is that germany's uh, self imposed restriction that that break is limiting. what side of the country can do on all funds? when you say around europe, there's

a lack of political willingboro and peoples of knowledge. but if you say there's a lack of money, they find it really hard to believe and that's still true. despite the worsening german economic situation, germany could actually borrow its way out of this mess very easily and do the right thing for european security as well as for its own defense. but it's currently choosing not to own the altar of that debt break. how does a spending on international i, how does that actually benefits germany? a well, it binds good reputation for a start. that's one of the key things it does. it shows gemini is concerned about the place of other people around the world. it builds particular good relations with the countries where it goes to, or at least it's supposed to if it's used strategically. and fundamentally, it's the right thing to do because human security, people's life jobs is around the world matter. but again, do they matter as much as the defense of our own societies right now? and the answer is no. because if we don't defend our societies,

we will have no possibility to give age in the future. let alone do all the other things that we actually need to do. so there was a clear hierarchy of 5 state needs here, and the irreducible function of the state is to provide security for it citizens. that's why defense should come 1st, but it's not the only thing to spend on. of course, we need to generate prosperity and to be able to keep, actually, our society's going and have that money to, to spend on defense as well as the improvements that people, right, the demand. so choices do have to be made. and i, i do think this is the right way to go at the moment in order to set the scene in future for having other forms of influence around the world. and actually having a strong defense, a strong society, is one of the ways we can also exercise transformative power, soft power around the world because we become attractive to others. good to do. thank you for explaining that. so clearly security analyst have benjamin tell us. thank you. let's take a look at some of the doors making headlines around the world. next one person has been killed after college. i've been to

a cafe terrace in iris since others were interested in the crash. the driver fled the scene, but the police arrested the passenger. he tested positive for drugs and alcohol. french police are already on high alert ahead of the opening of the olympic games next friday. u. s. military says it will dismantled to pay a bill to carry aid into the gaza strip, saying that its mission is over. the pay it is currently in the is ready for the ash don't after it was removed because of storms. a group say the project did little to help supplies reach farm and stricken golf was despite it's $230000000.00 price time left in foreign minister. so guy left for off house. welcome to republican vice presidential nominee and j. being vance is stands on your crime. donald trump's running nice has repeatedly tried to block a to support keys in his rooms. russia, the ohio senator has said us should crashing right to strike the leads to

the relatives of passengers killed when the major airlines, flights mh 17 was shot down over east and ukraine. unlocking the 10th anniversary of the tragedy, the services of taking place in ukraine's that russian occupied dynette supervision where the wreckage fell in july 2014. the models of also being held in the netherlands and most of the drive. yes, all 298 people pulled were killed. international investigations concluded that pro russian separatist, shut it down as they were fighting ukrainian forces in pre cursor, to russia's infection of alexander who was in charge of monitoring the situation in ukraine for europe's organization. for security and cooperation between 20142018 joins us from the hike. welcome to dw, the conflicting ukraine escalated into the largest but to your for same since world war 2. how did we get to a good evening?

it's difficult to put a starting point of this floor and they won't suddenly have enough time to look far and back into history. but the domino, if i may have 17 that you have trust referred to. and subsequent widens, committed by our shop, was fundamentally, and the legal act. simple, not the office action structure has taken over the past 10 years. and your crime before and make 17. that was the veterans are planning on, on, on time. government protested the for the for key followed by the legal antics ation of crimea. an officer image, 17 roster. continue to follow. i'm a nation weapons troops into your crime and leading to continue apply islands and attempts to end this cycle of violence, including for the so called municipal agreements. arguably, a face contains the conflict as documented by the o. c. over 80 years. the conflict contained at the same or, and then in $22.00,

the full scale of russia. and also you're trained by russia lights to an ever more and write the blotches and destruction. ultimately, thousands of others have joined the almost $300.00 that died on board image, 17 and more bill share the same faith if this more continues. and of course, the impact are based conflicts on european secured. so you gotta go to pay. and politics has been massive. it's a lead us you have to mention as the past 2 years have seems the 1st case of making on the aggression in europe saying since i can both hor, but now europe and the wide world as practically. but another piece of really become more number to it. it becomes the norm and it's probably disappears to the back pages and all the lights there have been changed. and of course, especially in europe, congress have increased the rightness investments on defense, cyber security, microsoft, big, strong firm. they put on big much let me take it and make energy security

strategies. i've been taken to to use 3 lines on the rough and gas, but the question of whether or not these measures will lead to sustainable changes in the security architecture in europe, and better be still lead to an end. the space for in ukraine remains an open question, and us president joe biden recently signed the 10 year bilateral security packed with ukraine. how vulnerable is that to potential future changes in u. s. foreign policy? any such by law for past will likely depend on the account race, foreign policy, and the new president from my believe rich to us security packets and the pro, the context of cheer, political challenges to account for expenses of these transactional approach to foreign policy. my leaving to use this pact as a tool in negotiations in euro, or a vision, the broader security architecture off night. so to gain from sessions,

i've got my lead gift course eventually to the beginning of the pack, and as a result of the task to less support for you frame i'm just to, i would on night. so much is made of the fact that rushes, the invasion of ukraine calls the aligns to expand and more countries that are taking that to present g d p contributions. most seriously talk to us about some of the divisions it's exposed. yeah, so it's, it's important to note that the nato, as such is not the cause of for the current born in your cry. the costs for the board in your brain is russians attack off you're trying against international law and rushes expansion both. it's like rushing into your pry, it has led to an increase of night. so an expansion of its membership, an increase of defense spending. but you're right. there are divisions between the lines regarding to the pace of how built that support for your crime,

to be delivered, and how approaches to rochester will be handled on the people, not the front of course, as well. many count if it's a nice to advocate for them or addressed expands and folders for a more cautious diplomatic. a portion of this, of course videos strategic differences the fan night the that may be used by of all shot to it cause further division between the alliance. and that's why it is important that support you train and go here and see if in the alliance is being maintained. so avoid this being abused by moscow. ok, thanks for to hear sir, that's what you created. monitor for the o. s. c. at least on the food and to to bangladesh. more than 5 minutes to shake, i've seen it has promised an investigation into the depths of at least 6 people who were killed when student protests turned violent on tuesday. students have been

demonstrating for weeks of what they say is an unfair quote, a system for much source aspect government jobs. bangladesh has recently been introduced rules that reserve about a 3rd of these for the relatives of war veterans main university in the capital of baca has been assigned to violence. those sources of responded by closing all of the countries in universities. i mean the netflix is there demands thompson's of angry university students wanting in to what dsp are unfit hiding. june for government jobs. the students are do, most of disability, just jobs should be awarded on medic, north to a, quote, the system that fee versus relative of war veterans kind of go to the lake, canada grandchildren or freedom fighters shouldn't get a quote for jobs. a generation is already had the chance to benefit from the quote . the system is that, however, we're not saying the system should be abolished, which we met were full me about the as long as i least intensified,

the government deployed that ability forces to try to quote the protests and violent classes a good between the protective and the students supporting the government we are leading in suddenly members of the routing parties, students being the taped us back. then we headed to what size, chance less house. when we started there, they checked us again from behind the routing overheads in the targeted way to get some pro guffman. students accused the demonstrative of vandalism. hospitals are filled with hundreds of injured students. some have lost their lights for students not participating. it's just in our country that stuff and defend, but the see, it's the future that is, i think i like it like hundreds of thousands of new graduates. we be competing for

the small number of government jobs. many see this is unfair as butler, this piece is high unemployment inflation and the flailing economy sensibly reform of the quoted system. i'm a student with a doctor, a university. if i don't get any job for 6 years of study that will create suffering for me and my family, what will the government do then? following the protests, the supreme court last, it's really on the decent bleeding and they did go down. but this to see if they will not stop protesting until death, permanently removed. all thoughts is a new cry inside the number of children, abducted by russia since the status of the war has reach more than 19000. few have made it back of the w special correspondence. abraham is being too great to speak to one of those who did steps on

a path to recovery. every day, 16 year old vladimir makes the 20 minute walk from his village home in southern new cream to this sports field. exercising helps him cope. so they gave me official boats gave me confidence that they would never drink. i call a smoke for. i live a healthy life style. it gives me self confidence. for example, someone insults ago. probably i could stand up for her when the war broke out, the lot of me here was attending a boarding school nearby. his mother passed away and his father's was unable to take care of him. he tells me he, along with his little brother, 13 other students and the school director for reading to be evacuated. but their towns soon fell to the russians, and it was them who came for the children instead. yeah, and i think i was not only afraid from his brother,

i was afraid for all the children was frightened in that suddenly there might be selling and for the basement when we were hiding would collapse on us. i was afraid for everyone by us. initially, russian forces holding them, tucked them in the building, but when they found out the school director was planning to escape with the children, the group was moved 1st to occupied ukrainian territory. and that too was study camp in russia. but with them, but with some children who were pro russian and didn't want to return to ukraine. i was friends with some who wanted to return to you. great, but i, you know, you guys are in with on that or have sent me a lot of here and the other children completely disappeared. his uncle was very sick maintenance. all devlin sold when we didn't know where they were or what had happened to the family time. i only heard some rumors that someone had seen the somewhere beneficial,

but there was no accurate information. it's been a lot to develop. a year later, roman was contacted by a ukrainian volunteer group saying that his nephews had been rescued along with the other children and had been taken to be seen georgia. the details of that rescue we're told, has to be kept secret, as the group hopes to do it again for some of the other children do in russian captivity. some of them for super so. so they were standing right next to me. i could touch them. so after such a long time, i can finally see them again, doesn't sullivan this because i, i can't describe how i felt that it either my soulmate was my soul mates. so when it lazy it means that give us the leaving it now they are not as cheerful as they used to be. they become a little more withdrawn. they still have the fear from when they were sitting in the basement when they were taken out of ukraine. by the russians simply, the trace of this remained on their souls,

stay as thoughtfully then to see the forcible deportation of children like vladimir and his brother is a potential war crime they could even qualify. as genocide, the russian officials claimed the rescuing ukrainian children from orange come to the international criminal court in the hague. has however, issued an arrest warrant for russian. president putin in connection with the abductions for now, lot of mere wants to put this behind taylor and hope the future will be better and which is but next i want to become a to a guide and see the world. but that is or something like that. it's gonna say for the 1st time we see it every 2nd. let me color color but is founder and director of the n g o save ukraine, which organizes rescue missions to return to 40 children from russia. he told dw about the difficulties of bringing these children home a day 8, save ukraine, rescued,

413 children from russia and occupied territories in 1994. all the children are orphans, the face numerous obstacles, not only in identifying these children in russia and occupied territories, but especially in communicating with them and returning them to ukraine. it is practically challenging to find, or funds, or children taken from orphanages and family based care. our team of investigators searches for this children using most open and close sources, determine in the or where boats and tracking the the movements. it is extremely difficult to find children placed in the russian, orphanages, or russian families and nearly impossible to bring them back today. children in occupied areas in the roger up forced to go to russian schools where the ukrainian land, which used to be then the also forced to seen the russian national anthem every day

. listen to political propaganda. and in many cases, the keys are militarized to eventually fight against ukraine. and you can you imagine it's more than a 1000000 children who stays on the occupied territories or in the roster, and both with the families or we don't families. and that's why genocide, because they talk to the one erase the identity. so that's because i can learn about from the end, you save, you cry. and so he wife a satellite with pods of southern i'm eastern europe, sending temperatures soaring to more than 40 degree celsius. the heat has prompted office hours in several countries to introduce protective measures during the hottest hours, including bands on the outdoor work such as construction and delivery. driving scientists awarding about such extreme weather events will become more common and more extreme. wild class been out of control in bulgaria.

the make up your own mind. maybe the day 3 of the republican national convention and the remarkable show of unity is holding with a form it never trump, but now on the tickets. i'd even form arrivals for the presidential nomination like behavior run desantis, giving their full throated backing for donald trump. things appear to be looking better and better on a public ins. meanwhile, the democrats are still arguing about whether joe biden should be on the ticket. i'm feel game the invalid, and this is the day the

donald trump has.
