ah, 11 o'clock, this is out there and lived in doha. also coming up. the brazilian president's gives it a boost to economic relations with argentina during his 1st state visits its coming, but shops in darkness. hospital survival generates is severe power outages, grip pakistan in the middle of an economic crisis. and hong kong ashes in the lunar new year with hundreds of thousands of visitors from mainland china. so berlin is coming under increase pressure to give the go ahead for the delivery of german made tanks to ukraine. poland says it wants approval to send leopard to tanks and it's in venturing. it's being discussed at a meeting of

e. u. foreign ministers in brussels island needs the consent of germany to send the times to a non native country. but poland prime minister says that warsaw will make its own decision if berlin does not admit the move. no, this can't be mother. we will seek disapproval from germany. but this is a secondary issue. even if we don't get such an approval in the end, we will give our thanks to ukraine anyway, within a small coalition of countries, even if germany isn't in that coalition will dominate kane as in berlin and has more on germany, the joan governments reaction. we know that the foreign minister of germany unrelated bow bach on french t v yesterday was saying that no request officially had been received for the release all those tanks. but if such a request were to come in, the government would not stand in the way of that being released. why does this need to be done? was quite simple when germany allowed the sale all these tanks to other countries around europe. there is a specific clause which says that the german government has to approve the re export. that is sending of those tanks from the country they originally were sent

to elsewhere beyond ne. so now clearly ukraine is not a ne, so country. therefore, german permission is required, and that's what the crux of this matter is. now, it is worth making the point, not just on leon, a bell, buck in the cabinet, but other cabinet colleagues who said that they think it would be fair for that to happen. but crucially, the decision about whether this happens or not, it's not their decision is the decision of all our shots, the chancellor, that he has been more reticent about committing to the release of these weapons systems without some kind of commitment from other countries. specifically, the united states, it is worth making the point that to day we have seen certain elements patriot missile systems and other things being sent from germany to poland, but not to ukraine. so again, the crux of this matter is, is all our shots prepared to allow those weapons systems to be released. and given the fact, the polish government is putting pressure on him, that pressure is only growing,

and it's also inside his own cabinet to oh ali hush him has more now from oscar. was guy's been reacting to news of western weapon supplies to keep the deputy for a melissa, sergey of jak of warned that these weapons are going to be destroyed by moscow. we up. gov also down blade reports of long range ballistic missiles supplied from the u. s. to ukraine and said that this is an element of psychological war for now. mosque has been over the past few days, escalating his position with respect to the weapon transfers directory, press gov, the spokesperson for kremlin said that this is taking the whole conflict or another level on that need to be involved in directly. this is kind of an attempt to a deep in the reluctance the, on the european side may lead in germany. what to do, we have called, he said that the u. s. ambassador to moscow, the new ambassador will arrive within the coming days. an issues between moscow and

washington are going to be discussed with the new ambassador still on the diplomatic front. a most gotta announce that its downgrading its relations with estonia, following the liens. downsizing of the you, of the russian embassy there. on another note, the f. s. b, the russian for intelligent service, said that they have reliable sources, a stating that the ukranian army is a stock filing weapons and nuclear plant. in euclid, a rushes for a minister as like a love rovers in south africa for talks. he's been meeting the for a minister and had a pandora in pretoria. last week, south africa military announced plans to hold joint exercises off its coast with china and russia. south africa was among the countries that abstained from voting in the u. n. to condemn russia's invasion of ukraine's b o. u. sailor, in favor of fur, useful resolution of disputes, and though will be,

will be bold was ready to discuss. negotiate with solution to any conflict with us. in september, president zalinski sank, signed the decree, bresh, bitching, all ukrainian officials to negotiate on in your seat with the russian figure rich. so, i believe it is absolutely obvious as regards to the origin of the problem of political negotiations. our sincere wish, but the conflict currently between russia and ukraine will soon be brought to a peaceful land through diplomacy, a negotiation. as we believe this is the desire of all of us in the globe, made miller has more now from the toria. this is, sir lev rav 2nd visit to the african continent in 6 months. and it's really about

cementing relations with a number of african countries, including south africa. now, officially, south africa has said that it remains neutral with regard to the conflict in the ukraine and the role that russia is played a but is meeting such as the swine, as well as a visit of africa's defense minister to russia. last year, a number of bricks, meetings coming up as well as naval exercises between russia, of african china, due to take place in february may suggest otherwise in that south africa is willing to hear what russia has to say around how it wants to develop its relations. with african countries and the emphasis was very much being on that to breaks grouping. that's our group made up of result, russia, india, china, and south africa. we've also heard from south africa's foreign minister saying that that groupings should play a greater role. they should be mechanisms put in place for that grouping to play a greater role in terms of a global safety and security of south africa,

has refrained from condemning russia's actions in the ukraine. and just how influential of africa might be, of course, is debatable, but it really is about creating friends and allies, a kind of cementing that relationship with new friends and allies, old, old friends and allies that might have been lost after the breakup of the soviet union and we engage in those countries as an alternative to the width we russia is increasingly isolated and criticized are brazil and argentina have signed agreements to boost trade during the visit by the brazilian president louis industrially to silva. it is louis 1st of abroad, since returning to par altima tinian counts brought alberto another's. also discussing the creation of a common currency between 2 countries, could eventually be expanded to all of latin america to will meet other regional leaders for summit. on choose day to raise a baby joined us live now from outside the argentinean president's office and

theresa are relations had been pretty bad under both scenarios. i guess this is a kind of reset, right? well that's correct relations where 10 doing the government wants to know who i'm. that's why president feler came to argentina, which was a tradition for brazilian preference to always come to this country once they to coffee. that's something that change was i was when i was in power and that's something that he's hoping to change. now he's right now meeting right behind me here at the presidential palace in when a side is where they announced it to increased trade agreements between both countries. to facilitate and negotiate pipelines, to get gas out of argentina. and the possibility of course, of a common currency between brazil and argentina, which would be called sort of what we were just listening. press the last phase that they know that it is not an easy task. that is something that has been discussed in the past. and mostly that political instability and macroeconomic

problems had made it quite difficult. but they had asked be economy ministers to start taking step. so evaluate the possibility of having a common currency at least to be used at 1st in, in commerce. so that's what we heard. but we also heard some strong pavement from new la by referring to the relationship between argentina and brazil. was also an i was in office the he called the general side of comments made by vote for nato, who called the president, not a socialist. that, that didn't seem to have lots of problems mostly because of the, of the economic policy implemented by the parent. if that ministration, which is a political party that belongs to among many other things. and he also said that this was the beginning of a new relationship between both nations that, that he was here to the bank of america for amanda, for having visited him. why le silva was the interest and so most certainly this is a lot of feedback that he's trying to many bridges that he's trying to get closer

to many of its regional allies in this part of the world. and, and he's also pressing here to be part of what is known as the summit of latin american and carry be a nation. this is a summit that is going to be happening on tuesday. it is, is a region block that brazil left while j. it was when i was in office and that right after taking office by mountains that he was coming back. and the reason why he's coming back and the reason why books when i left initially is because bennett and cuba were part of that. well, we know that the q when president is already here, we cited it is very likely that nicole last my don't the full i'm president will also come. this has not been confirmed. there's been a lot of the base about this being if being surrounded in secrecy, but we are hoping to be able to clarify whether or not we will be coming or not. this is far from intention with the opposition here in argentina, or accusing my little of being a dictator. what certain is that, what's happening here? we want to cite it is a new possibility of integration of talks of negotiation over 30 countries from

this part of the world. many of them are from center left. governments are getting here together to try to get more integration. ok through that. great, thanks very much for that. up by that one is there now power is being restored to large parts of pakistan up to failure of the electricity grid left millions in the dark businesses and hospitals have been hits as the national grid when done early on monday, authorities say getting the whole system back online could take several hours, go hider has more now from some of that. for the 2nd time, since there's new government power in april after a ward of no confidence against him on con, the country had seen a major breakdown in the country, electricity power system today, pockets on experience. yet another outage that 2nd and they had the affected life across the country where the deal was here and it's bought. they depend on
