versus me originally when there's something else i would like to say to day one, puzzle lawson. we will try whatever we can to make sure that p's it because it comes to lecture how our content up with the larger i spoken to president zalinski repeatedly on all about as the next steps are taken apart of. and i've also consulted president putin on several occasions last week and he has improved. he needs to understand and hear all the truth about your crane. and that truth is that the war destroys ukraine. 14 of was lost to gov, but the war also destroys russia as future weapon fail to be silenced. now, what do you loved in advance, mister mills mean, literally ongoing negotiations between ukraine and russia will be successful. nobody can know ever right now, but we're still, we're still in that far that evidence. we for evidence that put in his release of

looking for a piece. but there's one thing that really a 100 you do not have to question, and it'll be then from the ukrainians to negotiate about that country. president lensky and his allegation, and nobody else. elizabeth, but it's understood so little. so what else we can do to support ukraine from in that search for political solution b, o p. we have all days and color all that as europeans take a central role. and se i think is absolutely vital not just for because war in ukraine is happening right at outdoors lap and geographical terms, but also because this is about european values, democracy, freedom, and the strength of rule of law. these the v of the draw hurdle to so maintaining these values defending them or that is the key task you of are worked at the state level, possibly you 2 the war. it's like

a like magnifying glass, an uber because it helps us understand what our focus must be. and this has been long overdue. i am talking about the decision to invest more in our own security defense as all peers and security means i hit refer to the find a european and transatlantic setting that will help us defend over to our sales against any attack of this most european solidarity in all saved security and defense policy in line with natal up through germany will contribute to this. this is a national endeavor for all democratic forces. liberal in dia, guns, boston. wonderful. so that's why we want to set up a pud supplementary budget for our armed forces on dr and enshrined as in our basic law. we are very far advanced in this process. thanks to our defense minister, christina lumbering don't moved to georgia. i would also like to mitigate guns

allowing some to others and i would like to say a house to your party, mister max white. we will be happy to speak about the design of this agreement in on board the very interest of the security of our country and the safety of our citizens. completely in order to understand. yes, absolutely. okay, we're forced along with that here. and in a moment about, you shall be speaking about the way you are imagining this agreement of the design . this is what we do far country living on the upper right. so we will reach many targets with a supplementary budget will come up. number one that we've all come up um give all these investments a clear purpose, which is to strengthen our defense capabilities yourself in length. the 2nd under the yard we will have long term on for the i'm just in planning, horizons and stuff as you. and that's what we need for the upcoming arc feature

project. on the 3rd and we've all have our finance and last week in our focus, including the dead criteria and masturbation to link criteria and also for the long overdue investments and defense and security will not be at the detriment of a necessary transformation to become a love at the low carbon economy and to create jobs to have affordable energy at an affordable, old age pension systems and many other very important topics than my bill to this was so abundance lighted in my but we need to see one thing. clearly climate change is progressing. the covered 19th had amec is not over and digitization in the last 2 years has of our salary to once more with an impact on our state, on our economy and on every one star. and yes, we need a state radi making sure that we're able to fly save,

and that we have stability. but at the same time, a state needs to invest in the future, ragowski and which stands i need to turn on by the side of its citizens. and doing one thing without leaving aside the other. that is what we need to do. newton minded, we can do both because germany is some good, well prepared, alter and an international comparison. and we're doing both because we have a clear plan for this country and for its future gluten di colleagues under the lawn in the face of the enormous challenges lie on head deliberately to her. the i will not speak about all the errors of policy in which we are setting the course again of a really short oscar. but i would like to underline burger 3 important topics that if i citizens are dealing with a space, especially 1st of all, climate and energy policy. and i've already, as said that we have to strike a balance on the one hand, we need to be independent of

a russian island gas and independent of fossil energy sources. on the other hand, we need reliable and affordable energy, high stuff in the short term music. and this means that we both secure additional capacity for all bulus gotchas. ms. lambert, gas bank. and i'm very thankful to minister of the economy. robert hobbit viewed the busy season under the defect there once more we, i diversifying our air bubbles in the supply sources in the coming months from that . and we will use the al, angie terminals at their western european cost to fear. and we will build up our own elegy terminals a lot quicker than originally envisage. and also be working on a law which will oblige the major energy companies to fill up their storage capacities with certain minimum levels. oh, good luck with in parallel, and we will take the burden off the shoulders of

a citizens and up of our companies. there's a 15000000000 euros package which should we will trust with add up to the next month was industry. the heating allowance will be doubled and also with the cost for mobility, we will help a citizens additionally and also the european council meeting tomorrow. and the day after we will speak about a better integrated european energy policy in order to coordinate a joint action against bottlenecks. in our supply and the high prices and speculative excess activities, we will speak about what i'm saying openly or undermining. market mechanisms are permanent subsidies for fossil energy is not something we will do with carlos, real good, just misunderstood. our fiscal policy could not take this and also in terms of the ecology enough, the environment of edward set, the wrong incentive i. so thinking beyond the next monster can only be one sustainable answer, energy dependency,

and high energy prices. it has to be renewable energy and energy efficiency in lima. more so our goal is to my, to be carbon neutral and germany ought to be by a 2045 is more important than ever to day. and i really hope that we will all move in the same direction as we are lar, facilitate, amused by compare, met super flora wind energy assistance and for building new power transmission lines miss. yet my langon, we cannot get just wait long. we need to speed up. this is what we need to do with eagle going to open the internet. we also wanted to want to do more in international climate policy. each of our target is even as a ballpark

t worked and sharing country of the g 7 with the to do more it and get farther climate law together. and one because puts vicious standards, we will, it of the long establish an approach in this respect and will not wait for the slowest stop. this will create a market that will reward climates protection activities with lighter aspect. the 2nd aspect i would like to be speak about and is the way out of the cup at 19 pogue america since germany 2 years ago. your gunners went into lockdown for the 1st time. we're going to school no other. the last topic has a camera. pricey said isn't as busiest as one, like. almost a 130000 people will have if i can pass it away with coven 19 ever since. and when you're fighting, but the consequences of the pandemic and social terms, the themes and, and in other respects. but it is a good call in all. and we've managed to get through this crisis so much better than other countries have. and this is not a incidental gonna,

we owe this not to the citizens of our country in the future, the nurses in our hospitals, to the doctor as well. and to all medical staff are from who have been fighting against as far as at the front line for 24 months to the point of exhaustion and beyond. vincent, living in the little of the me at zealand aides on there, the student is the teachers, the parents who had to deal with home schooling home affairs and getting school done on under the circumstances applicant i make. and they are the millions of citizens who are complying with the corporate rules got vaccinated and who gave up for a certain time. all the things that makes our make our lives beautiful. i think it's high time that we thank all of you

dot com. it is this michigan, tony, but that's my initial stick. he's a volley dollars to ending we will continue unless path of wants to show you leave the crisis behind in a spirit of solid of solidarity. but again, this is why the shore time arrangements have been on the meagre crumb pro long. which of this is how the labor market. why that the storm works, which are about, oh, and that is why our economy is recovering now because the skill staff is still in work of the blood. not a good thing though. also, with a view to the financial burden that we expect arising from the war in ukraine most often, almost all in almost all neighboring states throughout the chorus, restrictions have been eased or completely want to star. abolish us infects on ships, good strokes, gazette, the german parliament too. as has amended the infection lowland of last week about kit makes possible more restrictions while at the same time making it possible for the federal state to take measures that are adjusted to this situation. and this is

vera, remain so come back to as a government because it would be a mistake. let's risk everything that we have achieved up to me that mean void, do our utmost to make sure that there won't be a next wave of input. i make an exit otter on the diffusion fear because that's on and that there won't be another variant that is potentially more dangerous than on the crone. or my joy just did a beautiful maiden in order to avoid such a dish or route. we need it as the other. the be polygonal colleague, vaccination should be mandated or mines on give, and i ask all of you to come to an agreement on this. this is our way, our faith cries on exactly all part of our society. i true. and in a society free him for all also requires solidarity displayed by all

these i don't give a colleague, am colleague, get white wood upon to me and this colleagues for until he goes beyond the crisis itself. there are enormous challenges and hes really program economic transformation. he needs to be, man, i just recall we need to get a grip on the climate crisis. freedom than the shape, demographic changes, security, police and euro is all of that is only possible as we, as a society stand with each other. um, how to start strengthening social cohesion or so that is the, the 3rd large area where the federal government needs to take action leader or the citizens need to understand and feel that everybody counseling my contribution. my effort is being appreciated. they ever understand an expression of that are fair and it isn't wages. i know that is why the federal government has linda's lawns. often often victor bar increased just not poor work krista and dropped the minimum wage to 12. and that will take effect as fast the 1st of october.

when goober fear the moon, and when we talk about even fair wages would decent attentions and heard the affordable discount rates and, and old age security for security. when you need care, then these are in order law gifts handed out by a state, but it is the glue that holds our society together and be a long rolls portal on both sides. but that in order to deal with these gigantic challenges when lead calling everybody use our operation. now ladies and gentlemen, let me share one last thought with you. that is, everything that lies ahead to give my can be master better. we do it together with our partners and allies in europe and the world just for more and in that spirit of sole person on your the heads of state and government offset you went off f nato and took on my invitation of the g. 7 will come together for an extraordinary summit in brussels below, from missouri to charlotte, left all the title,

diversion of $65.00 days after the signing of the retreat. here for him to the day will show to the world that we stand together. it's been months in it's like we are golden eating very closely and we'll be deciding about the next month that was through taken together before the unity in the you or do i know in nato zone and the agreement of the g 7 has been hardly by never been greater than it is now. i'm very grateful to president biden is as you under penning there, spying, coming to brussels and ends up with and his unity, democracy is our strength for as we try to promote democracy in pcb, our alliances, we will help as his and get through this year for and it will strengthen us in the process. miss lawson,

we need then been in calm them want united time as never before start. we will strengthen latest defense capability. pearson got more and more united than ever. and the european council will adopt a new e u. security strategy, let elijah teaching comparison. that will be really a 3rd step towards european or sovereignty. when you do nomic the type of vendor of option, we're just witness saying what type of dynamism is created by this turn on iraq over and be want to benefit from it. if he wants security in iraq, we need to improve our crisis resilience in our he polluting of alpha moine, both and energy environmental and economic policy, but also as a huge in your technology. and if we take a strategic look at europe map, linda smith, listen, it is clear that with the west, symbolic him countries need to be supported. so as to help them join that you as soon as possible that's been released at northbrook.

does lawyers little given these i don't of these decisions, we need to adjust our decision making procedures and mechanisms within the you. it is also something that i would like to work orders, appraisal, m, r, ladies and gentlemen, crises are also always a reason. god, as you have a new departure, we'll have to look at a new beginning. and i think that what we're read, the saying now also triggered partly by the horrors in ukraine. we're setting a political tracks, a new, both in germany and in europe, a school or an will society support is strong because the citizens feel that without peas, everything is nothing hooked. freedom and democracy like regular from all of a sudden are in just as abstract terms any more, but something that we need to defend what you bought, madame lund with it, as we ran our country,

people show solidarity. they're making the nations that joining peace rallies. they help the ukrainian refugees and i find that very encouraging the parts of it because it shows that in this crisis, we are meeting the challenge we arising with the challenge. it shows how much good there is in our society and what we can achieve together. that was just as lola felt addressing the german parliament talking about the war ukraine leading to death of sanctions that have been posed or rather since it invaded ukraine and the financial commitment germany is making to support ukraine. besides the challenges, the only faces in the climate crises and the cobra 19 pandemic achieve political correspond. belinda crane has been here listening to the speech as well. just take us through some of the main points that we'll have shall set, make there in his chance was budget. well, interestingly enough,

he didn't start with money. he started with the question of whether we could see a confrontation between nato and russia. andy absolutely rule that out. he said that he's getting hundreds of emails every day from people who are terrified that the war could spread and come to germany itself. and he said a no fly zone could in fact, provoke a wrist of an aide, a russian conflict, and therefore, that would not happen. so that was his 1st point. then he went on to talk about what an oil and gas embargo. in other words, embargo supplies from russia would do to the german economy, indicating that the german resistance on this does continue. he said it would plunge the country and possibly europe into recession, that it would cost many jobs that it would hurt german industry. now that has been a position that germany has been maintaining, even in the face of sit or bowl pressure. we'll see how it looks to morrow at that

extraordinary summit that the chancellor referred to. undoubtedly, this topic will arise as you know, joe biden will be here and broaden himself, has embargoed russian oil supplies to the u. s. so that was his 2nd major point. then he went on to talk about all the different crises that germany is facing. and that the world is facing. and the fact that we don't know whether we may see a major food crisis coming up. we have an enormous flow of refugees, 3500000 having left ukraine altogether, 236000 right here in germany. so in other words, preparing germans for the fact that ongoing crisis management is going to have to happen. and in that context, he talked about the supplemental budget that the finance minister will be asking for. it's not yet clear how that supplemental budget, how much it will be. some experts say, probably around another $50000000000.00 that's on top of already new debt of nearly

a $100000000000.00 that's on the budget. plus the special defense fund that is off budget off the books as it were, but will be in addition, another $100000000000.00. so we're talking about quite a lot of debt. he then went on later on and i found this very interesting to, to talk about the fact that with all concerned about how to help citizens in the face of the effects of the ukraine crisis, higher energy prices, heating subsidies, some kind of form of temporary. he said subsidies for fuel that germany must not neglect climate. and that it is very, very important that it nonetheless invest in the transformation toward green energy and other words, quicker planning, quicker permitting for new transmission lines, more renewable energy. and he was very, very clear about the fact that this remains an salute priority for his government.

that in fact, energy independence and also sustainability are more important than ever a lesson that we've learned from ukraine. so those were his main messages, a vast, a vast scope. let's go through a few of them. first of all, this, no, to a no fly zone. what, what was his reasoning there? he says that essentially that could pull nato itself into the conflict. because once you declare no fly zone, you have to police the parameters of that zone and it would be nato pilots who would be doing that. in other words, they could come into confrontation with russian pilots. and that is always a moment where you could have an accident or something unplanned. they could in fact then b, a russian nato confrontation. so he clearly ruled out once again a no fly zone. what about the other tool and oil embargo? again, very, very skeptical on that point. he said, and there is some debate on this that it would cost

a number of thousands of german jobs have a major impact on german industry. there are different figures we're hearing. some of the government associated economic economists have said it could cost up to 3 percent of g d. p. other economic think tanks say the impact might be less than that. and certainly germany, both in the financial crisis and also as a result of the pandemic, did see serious hits to german industry to g d. p. and nonetheless, saw a come back afterward. nonetheless, he pointed out that we have still not recovered from the pandemic. and the, the additional burdens on the economy due to the ukraine creed at war. and the sanctions should not become greater, for instance, in regard to the sanctions and the burdens on russia itself. so clearly a strong, a drive on his part to limit damage to the economy as all in that parallel what

we've heard from the economy, mr. hatchback, who has said, we cannot afford to do an embargo on a short term basis, but we must make ourselves independent of russian energy on a medium to longer term basis. lastly, the affordability question that debt burden, how and when is it going to be paid back? well, they're talking about starting to pay back at the end of this decade on a 30 year time period. now that means that children who are not yet born would be re paying this debt. at the same time, the finance minister is saying that the overall new debt will not exceed the debt that was taken out by the previous government to deal with the pandemic. that would be $215000000000.00, but in his counting, he probably is excluding at least some part of that special defense budget and or the supplementary budget. because if i total it all up, i come to a figure of more like $250000000000.00. and the finance minister is still saying

that germany's famous debt break is going to return in 2023. that's a limit written into the constitution saying that debt can never exceed 0.35 percent of g d p. the how they plan to do that is essentially squaring a circle. it is not clear to me that that's going to happen and certainly the chancellor didn't mention that in his speech. well, the opposition has described to this as a a budget did riddle hasn't, hasn't it? melinda gray, thank you very much for the analysis of political correspondent. you're watching d. w. news is a recap of our made story rushes efforts to occupy the key ukrainian photo. marianna will continue with them striking an industrial compound president low to me. zalinski says 100000 residents remain trapped in the city. granting forces continue to resist russia's attempts to take the capital q. and german chancellor will show it says address parliamentary ukraine crisis. so said sanctions against
