aligned in our ambitious goals to reached net 0, we know that building clean economy has the potential to expand trade to grow the economy, and create good middle class jobs and careers on both sides of the atlantic. so we're working with germany to expand the adoption of carbon pricing around the world. is pleased to join chancellor seltz's g 7 climate club proposal because this is about building a safe, healthy future for our kids and grandkids. both with cleaner air and better opportunities for them to succeed. the major software line or distributed less stress you like can use the a few he said have of course canada will continue to work with partners in europe to defend democracy, to support ukraine and to build a safe and prosperous future for everyone. thank you for everything. love

abigail beaman, global news, and prime minister trudeau. you referenced your conversation with president lensky this morning, and you promised to send more specialized equipment we're hearing. there are some challenges getting some of that canadian aid across the border into ukraine. what can you say about that and when will the entirety of the lethal and non lethal aid promised by canada, reach the people who need it. and if you could answer in english and french, please, a, we have obtained a number of specialized equipment including cameras used in drones that a canadian company makes that we will be able to start sending in the coming days towards ukraine. as you well know, there are challenges at the borders in terms of getting equipment securely across and into ukrainian hands. but we are out working through that with partners alongside all allies who are facing the logistical challenges that

are real but not insurmountable. we will continue to deliver more and more aid ada as it's needed. and as the opportunities come up to, to do just that use eval up to new. the can me huh project? or can i that coupon for a while for a dds, you can use to do the whole dollar there. false de la b. a new seminar, who hey, deal with his envoy. ye at don usual hackney on this bow coated for while home for you, the least my, the lead maddie really defeat at affluence, yo cole, what to us only to some kind of says should equal know what to lead. necessarily proceed, hernando seem a month to sit. ashley had saddle. it's us. you have a dish and a leaf one fun mc come troops. i can hold quin and he will call you know it's n goldish. sean from tish meant him 9 that was on t. ashley,

it's the other dutch duncan said, swish but right is of us to, to lessen what efficiency does dutch lent somebody perish. and in that so from ramstein, suzanne and in mid italian conflict, pine gets all good damages. lucy, john ranch 9 as the abbeys. we provided support is about financial support that we had been organizing for many years in order to strengthen resilience of the ukrainian economy, which is something that we continued during the time of crisis. there is a lot of financial support. we also provide military support and we provided equipment as you know, amongst and also individual weapons that we informed you about already. we have to consider very carefully what we do in very concrete terms. and this does definitely not include fight up planes. we will continue to send equipment and weapons as needed as we

have in canada. we will continue to be aligned with our partners. we all have to be careful about not further expanding or escalating. we want to deescalate the contract. we want to see an end to this conflict. we will be there to support ukrainians in every way that we can. but we need to be mindful of the best way to support them. hi, this is a question for both of you on energy policy. we know that right now, germany is still relying on russian oil and gas and will need oil and gas for many years. we also know canada has a lot of oil and gas, but doesn't have an easy way to get it to europe doesn't have the infrastructure. is this something you talked about today? is there any kind of energy partnership possible between your countries? and specifically, is there anything you would like to see happen in the short term or the long term to help canadian energy, replace russian energy and prime minister if you could answer in english and french as well, please. we actually had a long conversations about that. this morning obviously canada has

a very strong energy sector with thousands of good canadian jobs working hard. i even as we look very ambitiously towards transitioning towards nat 0, we know there is a continued need for oil and gas that has been heightened because of the conflict with russia. we. we also talked about a ways where we can partner not just in the short and medium term on energy supplies, but also staying focused every step of the way on that transition towards renewables, towards hydrogen towards cleaner sources of energy, which is something that canadians are committed to something that germans are committed to something that all of us need to do, we will keep working on this together. there's lots of opportunities for partnerships around that. new 7th we there canada dealerships.

on the news, you foresee some pool po, hey, the numbers went on the age of 8 pebbles on canada, so north of montana have aidan in, you know, he pads, jeremy, all kind of, you know, people develop the city. so let me see what the city shown for domain missy. this will be helpful, and more yet they'll move up while have a are some poor develope in, in pissed. oh, this via d. kaplan's actually on the news. he couldn't meet santa stress on it. you see on so he had a flip tickle county key, new c o coffee, mitzi vaughn, at the festive yet. i vale coffee, canada on dodge front, performed a guy. kennedy in germany pursued the same goals when he comes to achieving the climate friendly industry in both countries are very ambitious. up to all those are successful in some global industry,

nations who take part in global trade actively. but we both understand that there is a task that goes beyond our own, who rather yet because the solutions and technologies that we developed, ah, that's when this area competitive in field solutions and technologies that can be deployed in many other countries. the world over because we have shown by then that it works house and because we have found out the options that can be made use of nissan funding the true for the usage off hydrogen. i already had told that by 2245 germany wants to become a common neutral in its economy. and if we want a chief that within a short time frame, we will need additional and melons, of how all that we will have to generate onshore offshore. with solar energy, often like we also will have to make use of hydrogen will see. and this was to replace part of the fossil resources that we are using today. and this hydrogen is

going to be produced in germany. but its majority will also have to be imported from other countries. so this is one aspect full a, it was very long term strategic cooperation between canada and germany. because we understand acutely the canada as a country that can help us import from massaged off when it comes to importing hydrogen in boston in canada, which will be produced in an environmentally friendly manner in canada. this is true, not only for hydrogen, but from any other commodity set. we lead now industries on a daily basis. and it's obvious that we also need to study the question how quotes for see we lose and consoles the medium and long term problems that crop out. so once we start diversifying our energy supply systems, where the transition phase, we still are using for sol, energies and lose a task that is easier to cope with. if you keep an eye on the longer term perspective, germany and canada,

probably the most ambitious countries where it comes to fighting climate change and therefore such a partnerships are ok. we've just been watching the press conference there with the german chancellor charles, the canadian prime minister. just introduce who is visiting with her child's appeal to put in to end this war immediately. he and to the both underline the unity between canada and germany. and we heard trudeau highlight the need to fight this information to defend democracy. richard, we were listening into that together beforehand we were speculating about what they might discuss. nothing entirely new, but what stood out to you. well, i think we have a little bit more detail than what we were just talking about earlier from the canadians like what this new delivery of military equipment was that true to tweeted about earlier today. talking about cameras that he used in drones, which are from the canadian manufacturer and it, a kansas can be supplying those in the next few days. and interestingly, talking rel, quite specifically about the logistical problems the western countries are facing

when providing weapons to ukraine. because of course, they can't deliver them to ukraine, they want to any nato country doesn't want to set foot in ukraine, going to india, ukrainian as space for fear of potentially coming into conflict with, with russian forces there. so some specifics there was also quite interesting to hear both sholtes and trudeau talk about, and we just mentioned it earlier. just before this press conference, this story, the poland wanted to provide ukraine via the united states, some of its fighter jets. so old russian built make fighter jets the kind of fighter jets that ukrainian pilots would be familiar with because they also use similar types. now there's quite a back story to this because poland announced yesterday that they wanted to provide these to ukraine by festival, sending them to ramstein air base. that's

a huge american ad base here in germany. the americans sort of stood up and said, wait a minute. this hasn't been coordinated with us and this is not happened, but it was the americans in recent days were floating the idea of trying to help provide i suggest to the ukrainians via sort of swap. so what did each leader say about this? well, allow schoultz was particularly interested about what he would say because bass is, of course, in germany. yeah. it kind of talked around a little bit. but he said that, you know, germany has been providing a lot of support for ukraine and much more to many expected. and we think carefully about what we do. and it most surely won't include providing fighter jet. now he wasn't specifically saying whether it was ok for another country to provide fighter jets and, but i think maybe we can detect an implicit criticism in there from shows that maybe it's potentially is that too far to provide fighter jets. interestingly, just intruder also said that is important when considering what to provide,

that the west doesn't want to escalate the conflict. he wants to focus on d, escalating the conflicts and also maybe implicitly from him sort of showing that there's a certain amount of caution about something which, which may seem as bigger step is providing grain with. i suggest, after the military experts say that it's not necessarily if i suggest that are going to make the biggest difference at the moment in this war for the ukrainians. that things like and see aircraft missiles and other actually slightly less kind of begun. sort of fancy weapons may actually make a big difference on the ground that legal aid is, of course, also being provided. but just to stick on this one because it was perhaps the most interesting part of this entire press conference. the rest was really a message, a solidarity, and unity that we had expected. does that mean that this proposal is well and truly off the table? we don't know yet. so i was speaking to a leading foreign policy voice in one of the coalition pos is the liberal party

earlier today, here in germany. and his explanation was maybe this was the kind of poor coordination between poland and the united states. that it seems to be a genuine offer on behalf of poland. so who knows? maybe it would, you know, be revise. it's this idea. but i think if we look at the responses of these 2 leaders here, it does show that there's a certain amount of hesitancy or around this, this topic. and the, i think this does point to the line that the west is trying to walk in, particularly nato, at the moment in this conflict. they want to provide ukraine with as much a support as they possibly can. but up to the point and not crossing over a line in which the russians can say, you guys are actually meddling in this conflict. we're now going to turn our fire on you. so they're doing as much as they can to avoid any kind of direct conflict between nato and russia. a difficult line to walk. indeed. all right, richard, that wraps up our show for this hour. thanks very much for that analysis or for all

of you watching. thank you for joining us. we've been covering that a special press conference with the canadian prime minister and the german chancellor. we will be back again at the top of the our, with an update on all of your headlines. thank you for watching. turning off the taps for russian oil and gas, the u. s. is ending its imports of fossil fuels from russia, saying it's sick of helping to fund the kremlin me? well, the, you says it land, it's over dependence on russian oil and gas, by the end of the decade, will look into how war and ukraine is being watched. closely in taiwan, where people, china might want to mimic rushes aggressive land,

grab the state of your business on robots and berlin. welcome to the program, targeting the main artery of russia's economy. that's how president joe biden described. the u. s. decision to ban in ports of russian oil. crude prices searched again after the spent, which comes at a time when americans already battling rising fuel prices. the u. s. in port only a small percentage of its oil from russia, but the band will likely push petrol prices even higher. called it the cost of defending freedom. meanwhile, in europe, the u. you his set out plans to end its dependence on russian energy by 2030. it wants to end most of its imports of natural gas from russia by the end of this year, but doing it will not be easy. russia is now openly threatening to cut off.
