11:02 am
naturally deserves meeting in the spanish capital during one of the most critical points in the alliances 73 year history. they'll focus on approving a new strategy in the face of the war and ukraine. one of the biggest challenges to be alliance in years. and there's already been development on tuesday with turkey agreeing to support bids by finland and sweden to join nature. the nordic nations pushed to be included after russia invaded ukraine. the leaders will also make an historic a decision, or to invite financing or to become members of nato. and this is based on the agreement to a reached or between finance written under key yesterday. and is, is a good agreement for finance reasons for turkey and for all of us. well, our diplomatic editor james bays is at the summit. james said the turkey issue has now been settled. this now leaves nato members to get on with the business of russia and ukraine, doesn't it? it is going to be a summit that is completely dominated, i think,
11:03 am
by events in ukraine. the summit actually formerly getting underway this, our leaders have been arriving in a recent hours. some of them coming from germany from the g 7 meeting that was taking place in germany, germany. of course, one of the most powerful european members of nato. and i'm joined now by the german foreign minister, and alina bad luck. let me start by asking you about that agreement by turkey to let sweden and finland join because they were the last hold out on that issue. how important is that? how historic and what message does it centered vladimir putin? it's extremely important for sin. and entre if it's mean 1st of all, because they're those countries. so societies have decided in the past that they would not like to join. but at this moment, they are realizing that they need for the future of their children for peace and security for themselves, nato as a guarantee. and therefore, i was crystal clear for us that if they decide to join nato is not only
11:04 am
letting them in. but this is also a good chance for nato because the, those 2 countries are strong democracies. they have also powerful armies themselves . so it also makes nato stronger. and therefore, it's really important was finland and sweden, n for nato. and what do you think putin which should take from this? well, put in is trying or was every thing he's doing also indirectly to split our unity within g 7 within the u, within nature. but also within the $141.00 countries who are standing for international law and the rule of law. and therefore it was so important then when others ask for support like in that and sweden, that nato is ready to let them in. so therefore, this was also sign of unity for those to stand for international solidarity that seem to be some other dramatic announcements coming from nato. apparently you're
11:05 am
gonna have a 7 fold increase in the rapid reaction force you roll. so we're told gonna strengthen the east and flank, but i've been looking at the detail of this of germany runs the battle group in lithuania, that you're going to have supposedly more troops. they're going to train in lithuania, they're going to learn the local terrain. but then the going to be based back in germany. how's that going to deter putin? well, i think in this moment when we are making not only are self defense compared to see stronger, but where we are signaling that we are defending every inch of our common territory, it is important that now we understand what this support means. it means that we are ready when we need it, but we never wanted to, to have, for escalation with russia. all we want is to live in peace in europe. and therefore we are making crystal clear that we are ready to defend our self. and
11:06 am
preparing all the structures, so for what we need and germany was one of the countries who said 1st i visited the ball to come. i was if it lithuania together, was a foreign ministers. we figured out what the support would be. and this also means we increase our presence, but increasing our present means working together was all the other nations because we are leading nations in lithuania. and we are preparing the structures that if in case we need to be there we are there. i read an interview recently with coca colas estonia as prime minister, and she said the current nato plan is that her country would be overrun if there was a russian invasion. then nato would get reinforcements, and in 6 months they might come and liberate the country. how is that gonna change with your new plan if your troops are stuck in germany and i can only on call. 8 i'm sorry, but i really have to reject this like this, this, this picture there. there is something in germany happening. this is not church
11:07 am
true. we are sending now, but are young to lithuania, making clear that all the structures are there. because if we are doing this, obviously we need the infrastructure on the ground. we are preparing everything. and the really new thing in the nato strategic concept is that we've, before we had the why accept lodging? meaning that if something happens, then in a couple of days, others would just support. but we realize we don't have this time because we have seen in butcher, we have seen an airplane that this is not about deliberating in the end. because what we have seen it in, which is then it's too late and therefore this noun, nato strategic context, also changes this understanding of saying it's not about deliberating afterwards. is it's about a deterrence, when something might happen. and this is why we're preparing it for lithuania, for stoneleigh, for laquia, and also now in the regard was with sweden and finland also for them. present zone
11:08 am
ski will be addressing the nato summit. here he spoke to the g 7. he said he wanted the war over by winter, but what will the end of the war look like? will ukraine have to negotiate with russia? we'll have to make some concessions. will there be territory that will have to stay with russia? for example, crimea. there's no way ukraine is getting crimea back, is there. this is up to nato. this is up to ukraine to the you can and government to the ukrainian city. it's their country. we are. so we are defending also, they are the sovereignty of ukraine. and that's why lies them their hand, and we're doing everything to support the president of ukraine, who is defending together with us citizens. it's countries. so whatever they need, we are going to support. this is also why we are increasing our weapons delivery to ukraine. and the best thing would be if the was over tomorrow, but this is not up to nato a. this is not up to us. this is up to president putin. he started this router war,
11:09 am
he started reaching everything. the international community is standing for. he can stop the bombing tomorrow, and therefore it's not about, okay, the plan is that it's over in a couple of months. the best would be over today. but this is in the hand of letting me putin. and if he doesn't do this step what the world is really, really needing for because it was not on any train. the effects are worldwide these up hooton's effect word wide. as long as he doesn't stop the bombing, we are supporting ukraine was whatever they need. finally, i want to move on from ukraine for one final question, because there's one country that has been repeatedly mentioned nato summit. so i've attended them most years in recent years. it's a country where you have troops for almost 20 years, afghanistan, and it's hardly, i think, going to get a bench and today, and it's less than the years since catawba took over afghanistan,
11:10 am
half the nato allies abandoned the african people. no, not at all. and especially as a german foreign minister, i feel a special responsibility for the citizens of afghanistan. we do not work together with the taliban regime because this is worst case scenario for everything. people have fought for have stood up for in the last day today. but we are standing with people off ganeth son. this is why we are the biggest don't on humanitarian aid as germany. this is why we are doing everything and i've just been to park his son. and i would really like to thank park of son for his support, getting people out of afghanistan. and i would also like to underline that these are the moments where you thing, i mean, you can not stand it anymore. it's the worst case scenario in afghanistan. anyhow, was the taliban regime, hunger girls who can not go to school any more info structure totally destroyed, and then they are having this earthquake. so this is
11:11 am
a moment when the world has to stand together to support the citizens. and finally, i would also like to say, these is the worst attack on women's rights on earth we are seeing in afghanistan. and that's why we cannot close our eyes there. if we are letting this situation, just pass by ignoring that women's rights girls are rights. i totally breached then we are also realizing that we do not care for human rights. and therefore for us, for me as a german 4 minister of governors town and the situation of women and girls, especially as a high priority on our political agenda. farmers to thank you for speaking to alger cera, analytic book, the foreign minister of germany, all the nato will so see nato allies. i hear. i do not expect to hear a lot of comment about afghanistan. ukraine is the subject that will dominate the proceedings here. obviously will be trying to listen very closely. i'm not sure it will be broadcast to us, but i'm sure we'll find out the details of what president zalinski says to this

11:13 am
any organization acted just like russia who is killing ukrainians, if they kill peaceful people, that would definitely be recognized as terrorism. russia joined the other council members and standing for that moment of silence, but took no responsibility for the deaths and said, accusing ukraine of waging and information war in an attempt to get more weapons from the west. he said it was weapons, not a shopping mall that was targeted in the city of command ship. but here, listen, you go will dot. when you, when you, unless you in reality there was no strike on the shopping center. the russian armed forces use precision weapons to strike hangers with western weapons and munitions received from the united states and european countries in the area of the criminal truck road machinery plant. those weapons and ammunition were spread throughout the warehouse area for further shipment to ukrainian troops in don bass. still, a group of western council members accused russia of attacking residential areas and civilian infrastructure in recent days. are you an official noted the latest
