3:08 am
this is not only about the sovereignty of ukraine or it's right to one. they become part of nato. it's also about drawing new lines, east and west, competing over the new security architecture of europe. ukrainians hope they won't be left out in the cold. hood, abdul hamid elder 0 give. meanwhile, russian president vladimir putin has said he hopes talks on ukraine will avoid what is labeled negative scenarios, including war 14, went on to say the us send it finalize, have ignored the criminal and main concerns, including nature expansion and binding ukraine from joining the military lines proofing it, but i'm going to put you in the thing that means that we are analyzing the response from the u. s. and i have already said that our concerns have not been addressed. we have not seen any guarantees that nato will move, its presence in our country also has a right to choose its own security. we cannot allow one country to increase the
3:09 am
security at the expense of another country. sammy romani is an associate fellow at the royal united services institute. he says diplomatic talks, arden impass, the russians want natives, a little up membership to include ukraine in georgia and also rollback nato's strategic military deployments. in all countries that had joined after 1997, including romanian bulgaria, the americans continue to insist along with the british near pans that the russians are on the risk invading ukraine and the russians are same as not happening. so as long as there's that chasm, i just don't see diplomacy having any success. first of all, i think the americans in the europeans that need have a coordinated response, and that needs to be a coordinator as bonds and sanctions, packages against russian leads against russian economy. especially over areas like energy, where germany's pushing for exemptions and other countries are pushing for more expensive sanctions. there should be greater coherence in unity around the supply, a defensive weapons to ukraine, and
3:10 am
a should be more security assurance as to the ukrainians. that's why i think moves like the britain, poland ukraine, trilateral access is a positive step, but it's not enough if it's not complemented by other western countries. why the think nato and the european union at the leadership level? so at the insults and berg level, for example, they definitely see i'd, i, on the nature of russia and the neat you contain not just the threat of russian military intervention, but also russian cyber attacks and russian, disabled, asian, but individual nato member states have different views you really have the americans, the british denmark, romania, poland, coming out in the hawkish end of the spectrum. and then you see other nato members in italy, france and germany carving out a mil round, which is more focused on diplomacy and others, the croatian hungry outright, saying that they're not going to either allow neither chip deployments or really participate it either to transmission. so those divisions are quite problematic. denmark has become the 1st c u country to lift all corona virus restriction stuff

3:12 am
you know, we were the 1st to do this. we were and we were the government in power, but i think it's sending the wrong message to that population sir. cases are higher than ever, and hospitalizations actually going up. the numbers in the intensive care units is, is not going up. so that's a good sign. but i mean, you're hospitalizations are going up, which is quite worrisome when you look at the unvaccinated. i'm so that's the population that, that's ending up largely in, in hospitals. i think it's one about trying to get people to get vaccinated, but it's also um, they're not everyone is, is boosted and even people who are vaccinated can get infected and some of them can go on to have serious consequences. i do believe that there were gradual reduction of restrictions would make good sense in denmark, but to lift it all in one go doesn't really make good public health sense. still ahead on al jazeera india is new budget predicts major growth in spending for the year ahead, but many wandering, evil, tackle economic inequality and under surveillance in el salvador,
