the 2 countries may have different approaches, but in the end, it's only when they agree that the 27th can agree. so we are in that process at the moment on different issues. one is obviously the ukraine war and how to support ukraine or, and we've seen in recent days that jennifer charles has been under a lot of criticism for his reluctance to santana to, to ukraine. and from the german chancellor on sunday, still no commitment that he'll give ukraine what it wants. it was out the us is doing a lot. germany is also doing a lot. we have constantly expanded our supplies with very effective weapons that are already available to day. and we've always closely coordinated all these decisions with all our important allies and friends with france, for example, with the us with other major countries in europe. and of course, with all those who participate in this discussion. emanuel micron says france is

not ruled out sending its tanks, but needs to consider 3 criteria. do bah, governance will be due. firstly, as we have been able to do since the beginning, that it does not escalate. secondly, data could bring will effective support or ukrainian friends. yeah. and for this we must consider the capacity to maintain them. in operational conditions and training, both leaders reaffirmed a commitment to support ukraine as long as necessary latvia lithuania, and a stony of added to the calls from other countries to send tanks to ukraine, piling the pressure on berlin. the new german defense minister says he'll visit keith soon. he can expect one subject to dominate the agenda. bernard smith, al jazeera paris, the speaker of russia's law, house of parliament has warned that the delivery of western weapons to keep will trigger a global catastrophe. and a statement on telegram a vicious lover, valadez said the supply of weapons will lead to an even more powerful response from

of course, which is equivalent to be sure city all. it's the whole of the office for the mayor . the district officials meet their local security official reside there. so in what many people believe is that the reason that this place was attacked was because it's a high value argument, i think because it's a full time government building. i think that should, that are still a factor that is still a factor that exists. and i think we need to be honest because the government has been launching a full blown military and so in different parts of the country can to shout. but the ship are still able to strike targets and will be sure will in fact government as you see what is on holding today, i believe is that what the government is doing today? i think they over estimate their capability from the war and should that because they've decided to take the world and to rule countryside,
