4:01 am
i'm no longer a very warm welcome to the program. is the 11th day of russia's war on ukraine. russian troops are shelling cities across the country, including the besieged city of maria, pole, or a 2nd attempt to establish a humanitarian corridor to get residents out failed. when a fresh cease, fire was broken and russian forces resumed their assaults on the city. these buses ends up alicia were men for a vacuum ease from the besieged city of maria full. but for a 2nd day in a row, they remain empty. they were supposed to pick up civilians from a real poll half way between the 2 cities, but ukrainian official said the convoy was unable to leave the city due to continued shelling moved off shore bloss pro bowler of trouble. there was an evacuation attempt yesterday, but the fighting continued almost lewis told me for so there was no way to safely
4:02 am
get people out of the city from middle to me for that is over also. which of you need to understand the risks the fighting poses to a humanitarian convoys, to the wonderful warm gambler? it's a dangerous undertaking, but the drivers still hope they'll be another chance to rescue their fellow countrymen with. i'm not afraid any more. there are many of us. we will find a way through the rooms. some 200000 civilians are currently trapped and maria pull the strategically important port city has been under heavy bombardment. water and electricity remain cut off and food is running low. just outside keith, more missiles and artillery attacks ukrainian officials say it's the same picture across the country with ukraine.
4:03 am
vanessia effort was also hit by missile strikes, prompting president zalinski to repeat his call for swift international action. with zachary, she introduced a no fly zone for all russian rockets. for russian combat aviation for the terrorists, introduce a humanitarian safety's own without rockets without balm. and while the landscape plea goes unanswered, ukrainians are doing their best to flee the intense shelling. well let's go to our correspondence. they calmly who's in cave nick, let's start with the situation. and maria poll, where a cease fire has been broken yet again. well, it's very difficult. 100000 people are now basically in circled from the north, east from the west. the south will see whether also russian forces and as you mentioned that your suction there is no end inside this. the 2nd attempt has failed
4:04 am
to organize some kind of humanitarian coal voice. this is very old fashioned. is it? what was going on here? shilling, using weapons from the mid 20th century. it is very difficult to reconstruct to shop 1st ukrainians say that it was the russians who decided not to go along with this sci fi agreement. and it's very hard to see how they can actually work out kind of some kind of manageable deal at a time where hundreds of thousands of soldiers dying every day on both sides without some kind of outside mediation, without the red cross to some other outside to bring these 2 parties to the table, but also to get them to stick to their commitments. i can't really see how this is going to work. the, the view here from key would be that actually russia isn't actually opposed this not working out. the, the ukraine would say the russians want these kind of military and crisis because that'll put more pressure on ukraine. democratically elected government to make compromises because they would be more affected by public opinion by the need to
4:05 am
prevent human suffering. whereas as the ukrainians would see at the russians already factored in, this damage their reputation worldwide by attacking ukraine and directly military consequences of discontinued fiji marapoo wouldn't add much to that. so that that is basically the fear here that defeats in russian interests. and that this could go on and now people have been out in merkel without internet, without, without collections in some days now. and the question is, how long can they keep going before things start getting really ugly? and people start losing their lives because they're not able to get medical treatment there. they need all because you know, hospitals all with electricity. so every 10 situation there and one that is really being students being followed across the country, especially now people across you can no longer able to reach their medical because internet has gone every 10 situation in mario poll, you are in cave. what's the situation in the city there and the surroundings briefly, if you can well, you're the center here has to be spared the worst kind of bombing that we've seen
4:06 am
else, which is like kind of cute. but it was, there is fear that the russians are going to try and launch another attempt on present. let's get life. so big fear all strangers of russian sleep regions, that kind of thing. but just 25, which is where i'm in the western sky of the fighting is really going on and being killed even trying to evacuate, fighting between ukrainian or russian continuing. so this is a very feeble and really a sense that the war that has been going on, you kind of 2014 has now reached the streets of capital q 3 reporting economy in keith as russia continues to assault ukraine, the united states has indicated, is looking into ways a potent to supply fighter jets to ukraine. u. s. secretary of state and city of lincoln said american made f sixteens could be sent to poland to replenish it. stock of russia may just also decided to send them to ukraine. pilots in the ukranian air force over the train to fly the russian. and let's bring in the rest.
4:07 am
so who is senior policy fellow at the european council for foreign relations? welcome to d w. right? so the us is saying poland could possibly supply ukraine with plans, but wouldn't russia see this as nato getting involved in the conflict? well, there's to say that there are actually implicit rules on proxy was if you, i sat to call it like that. what that will be, be none. the 2nd, the bliss girls are they have been off right with the soviet union and with the russian federation and supplying weapons to one side, we wanted to see winning is not a violation of poland. would be a party to the rule if the polish army are to enter ukraine, or if you frame ian military would launch attacks from polish territory. both. they're almost doing the supply of arms even of complicated or complex arms like
4:08 am
fighter planes, is something that we used to do. and we will do. and also that the russian federation dos to war, waging parties who are on the opposing side of the spectrum in other theaters before. oh, of course they're making noise about it. of course they want to make our public feel insecure about it. but this is part of the game. how ah weapons from the west being reaching fighters on the front lines in ukraine? well, some chance of communications always have been and they're not activated for that. i mean for the security no, to compromise any of those. i will refrain from making details about there have been repaired and there have been arranged and by various means to us that if i can distinctly brought into the country of the fastest delivery of went from poland to the, to the fronting. kirk. if within 3 days or so,
4:09 am
it is possible to do so. and these weapons also reaching eastern parts of ukraine and an exposed portions of the france. if all the time being russia does not have the means and the knowledge to interdict them. and i hope it keeps ugly. so with all you've said now, what does that mean? you're not worried that this will could spill into europe further at this stage? no. oh, there are clear cut rules as a set, and we keep them all for the time. as long as the train is standing and fighting. russia is busy fighting ukraine. if ukraine falls, if russia starts to install a puppet regime, if russia starts to ramp up the repression against the ukrainian population who does not, and probably will not accept this puppet regime, that things might get harder because as be effect,
4:10 am
putting during the coming days and as we have actually heard, put in during the past when years, everybody who arises up to put him into a in territory. he things are his attributed by him as kind of see agents or western making. so then if you train falls or he will of course, make us responsible for whatever is going wrong now. and might use military force or military threats to force us to. and i put this under quotation mark because it will be just another horrendous line. refrain from interfering in his domestic affairs, but as long as you train is standing, as long as those organized persistence from an organized ukrainian state, russia is busy destroying that, and they're not making all too much progress on that road. so these weapons deliveries, they're not only in ukrainian interest during our interest as well, because we want to ukraine to survive as
4:11 am
