actually so the people i'm giving them the basic needs is 5 and they didn't even think of government to be changed. the government continue to ignore this stuff because they didn't have money. that's true. but the overall impression was that the government also had slid the governor and brought in many of the i'm what i'm looking for and i'll do the organic want to be opening for delays of the country. 1 talking with that also being and people realize that the bowman was actually having map out to address to the government from this crisis. so people realize that today it needs to be turned out to be a purpose demanding all basic needs. but sorry,
9:06 am
if i can just cut it now you mentioned that the government doesn't have the funds, does it not have control over its own finances? what, what's gone wrong? the problem was that it was not the same that this government has to face and they took up the challenge to bring forth a lot of changes in the system, especially in the, in the, in the form. it's a product scenario, but it didn't well, because from the time the text, there was a problem in terms of having funds to inform woodside to get the needs for the people further. and then it was also a wrongful thing on down many people, this is important for the people there. got mixed up all the way up to the prices and then the dollars. so this is so the matter of fact that there was no gas,
9:07 am
there was no, well, there was no basic commodity. so it made me put life to which began and it was only demanding diagrams and basic needs. but then this provides that fighting claims that they don't have money and they're those documents and other countries are giving us the law that we want. and the law is like the old days from india was not coming immediately. and then there's a process for it. even in the dental office. so we have basically stuck without any money, but that's not only the cause because what i've managed now was based on the gets, let's say we could manage the situation. this warning came about crisis. so what class the government had was not wanted to
9:08 am

with her doctors. the queen, whose 96 has mobility problems and has had to cancel a number of public appearances recently. russia's war on ukraine now, where germany is dispatching its highest ranking officials of foreign minister and a lena band bunk issue and give today if is it expected to patch up a diplomatic span? oval showman, weapon supplies and brushing economic ties. able to visit comes a day after it told me you were official witness, the devastation of russia's war 1st, had european council president shy michelle. it was in the southern city of odessa, on the same day came under intense salad tax, which i was forced to take shelter when air raid sirens went off. when you're president below him, is the lensky said, brushes, assault makes clear. it's disdainful europe. he w, corresponded ami, and s f is in the viv,
9:14 am
i asked him for more details about the latest as strikes in odessa several missiles hit that port city as you said, as the european council president charles michelle was there. these hit residential and recreational areas, including a hotel on the port which was destroyed. these are cruise missiles, which have been launched from the black sea, from warships in the black sea that belong to russia. these are not art, this is not artillery fire, which means these are long range attacks, very similar attacks of the ones hitting western cities like levine, where i am now. what this means is, these are heading areas where russia does not have enough power to go in and to attack the city directly. but odessa is expecting, or at least preparing for such attack because it's on the port or not so far west from mara, you pull and they have seen what has happened to that city. so they've mind the beaches and they prepared for an all out attack from russia. but so far, these are just laundry long range attacks by cruise missiles launched by russia. i mean,
9:15 am
i mentioned the germans are ministers visit. how does ukraine support or view it support rather than it's getting from berlin? you well, there's a difference between how the government season, how people on the street see it in that the government might be following the news a little bit close, closer and know that more german and politicians and officials have visited ukraine in recent days. and then a bareback foreign minister is a meeting with officials in keith to day. and they know that germany has decided to support ukraine with heavy weaponry, including howitzers, which are the strongest artillery that germany could send. a 7 of those will be arriving in ukraine soon. but on the street, a lot of people remember that germany has always been the last to agree to any kind of escalation in this conflict, sending
9:16 am
a weapons that they were not sure would escalate the conflict with russia. germany has been very careful not to provoke a wider conflict here to get nato involved to at least show russia that nato is getting involved. and to make this a worse conflict, not germany has taken that kind of name for itself as the reluctant partner in the european union, and that has stuck. i think at this point a lot of ukrainians would like to see olaf shoulds, the german chancellor vit. visit ukraine, and i think until a big act like that really makes its rounds in the media, most ukrainians will still still see germany as the european country that's holding back, i mean, as a forest in love. if thank you and our chief political editor, metallica of the joins as a hello, it's been a long time coming back. the german foreign minister is finally heading to key key of today. how important is adelina bebbles visit? well, it's symbolic. a very important, this is after i hung quite a stein maya,
9:17 am
the president was told he was not welcome. and we then learned that both the towns on the foreign minister were waiting for him to be able to go fast. but that caused diplomatic route, almost between those close allies in standing up against russia, ukraine, and germany. so now the job, foreign minister heading, deaf of security reasons, we don't know about the exact timing, but most importantly, she's also reopening the german embassy that and that will so that germany is on the ground that it will do some business looking towards a new usual hopefully in the future that that is actually face, that this conflict will not further escalate, but that that could be a return to a new normal hopefully soon. that's the symbolism so far, but on the ground we learned. so michelle went there yesterday that it can be very
9:18 am
dangerous indeed. and that things are very far from back to normal. germans as low as i've shown in french president memo, mccoy had talks in berlin yesterday. and one of the main topics was ukraine's bid for e u membership. when is that likely to happen? it depends on who you ask, interest me, emanuel my call hasn't been to keith either, but without that kind of public debate and the disappointment and the french president, amount of my call is country holds, the presidency expects that to take years even decades. that's why he put a new proposal on the table of a european political community, which would allow countries that don't have an immediate prospect of joining to move closer towards the u. that something german tons of all sorts described as quote, an interesting idea to deal with the current it challenges and that timeline looks a bit sort, although we don't have any specific certainly from the german angle. but this is a far from simply being signed off in brussels. and that's also increasingly the
9:19 am
impression that keith is getting, despite having done the paperwork in lightning speed. so european union waiting roof, let's see how long that takes michelle a couldn't for us. thank you. where the military analysts say russian troops have made little progress in their invasion. in recent days, the front line shifted slightly as russians and ukrainian forces tried patches of territory. many places in the part of the advancing and retreating armies were empty residents, but some people are staying behind, holding out hope for peace as the don't use. mathias bullying of found out in a town demco life. a village you raised whiskers right on the front line. virtually no holes remains and damaged the village. ones are 2000 inhabitants. now all you harmful are left you are lucian co. his one of them. yes, illness, vicky sher, it's come now hurry, we are resting a little after you. but
9:20 am
a few days ago it was terrible with bombs were falling, shooting fire, things falling, dan. a bomb fell down in my court yard 12 meters from my bedroom. there was a light bang and fire. oh, i'm surprised. my house didn't burn down your chair. that's how it goes here. what are you young? what she calls car means just that writing is less intense village was overrun by the russians, and then we taken by the ukranian young. nothing here. i don't judge the soldiers, neither the russians nor the ukrainians. it's not their fault, they're forced to do this. she lives here with her son was mentally ill. she says she has not left because she fears not being able to take care of him elsewhere. when the shelling stalks they hired inside the home. oh yeah,
9:21 am
that's good to you. this is our little corner. the i'm afraid of basements. i was told there are basements where i could go look for luxury room, but here in our street a woman was buried while she was in her basement. i'm not going there legal with well, hey, with when shelling start. so this is where we sit together. meanwhile she tries to make the best of the situation. oh, don't i? so i love, that's where the bomb dropped her through. i forget what i was a big crater home here. oh, i filled it with earth and planted potatoes there. oh, oh, i lena was born during world war 2. no, she spends the night from the shell. the houses take you severe hits, but unlike others, it's still standing. and she is maintaining her spirit. where he worked with her, i am holding on growing our life was always modest mind,
9:22 am
but it wasn't bad. what is the i pray to god that all this is over soon? hi, lina. survive road were to as a total. now with she plans to survive this war as well. u. s. president joe biden has revived the 2nd world war program to speed up weapon shipments to ukraine. he cited you version of the lend lease act, which was previously used to supply weapons to the soviet union and other allies in their fight against nazi germany. he said, vladimir putin is war in ukraine was once more bringing wanton destruction of europe us or make is proposing nearly $40000000000.00 and additional aid for you, quite frankly, which was a british military intelligence officer and lectures in law and strategy at the university of portsmouth, frank, ukraine could soon be getting a hold of
9:23 am
a lot more military assistance and aid. how important is this lend lease, act for? well, good morning. bad. let's put this into context. the russian defense budget in dollars last year into this year is about $67000000000.00. so you create is going to be getting about $25000000000.00 in military aid by the way, defense budget. also things are pensions, but this is all in equipment and kit. you ask your question directly is this is potentially provided. it's continued and provided europe also takes up. it's like a war with, for ukraine, as it was for the, for the west in the 2nd world. war, it's absolutely critical and we see the effects now in combat on the battlefield is, are we thing ukraine progressing on the battlefield right now? some of the artillery pieces are clearly got through. and one thing i think it's worth saying is that we have had some detail about the weaponry that ukraine has received. and it's probably about time we stop getting that detailing simply,
9:24 am
we're told that the aid is arriving. but the answer your question is you can use starting to use the equipment they've got. clearly there's a lead time. but what we're seeing, of course, is the effect and not only of the quote itself, but if the, the support, the strategic sport in other levels. when even things like or if perhaps even especially we don't know, things like styling, which is been absolutely critical on the part with it and that's not stayed. it's commercially, but it's been very important intelligent say from the west, and yes, we are seeing an effect there. we are seeing the russians being held in the southeast, where bit we're seeing them making very limited advances, despite numbering their opponents, the cravings, but both sides are taking serious losses. so are we seeing any sort of change in moscow's military strategy? to the extent that we can tell yesterdays rather lackluster and confused speech by putin does tell us that they are focusing on the don bus. and that's because, of course, that's what they can achieve rather than what they want to achieve. and we're
9:25 am
seeing, i think, a rowing back of strategic objectives from moscow and, but the british intelligence said this morning backed up by the americans. the that rowing back is governed by the fact they're conscious that the limitations is making significant significant efforts to hold them on their succeeding, pushing the back from car if in the northeast, some reports even yesterday that they retook snake island, which was rather route to the russian warship to substitute suck, but they're not confirmed. so the point is russians are stalling and sued their offensive will culminate and start to fail. even rushes offensive in a dumbass is going quite slowly from what i hear. yes, the pentagon said yesterday that made that made single figure advances. if you look at it in some detail that nibbling away, that's wrong, turn that grinding away, or don't ask just a 45. if you haven't even got into the city yet, a built up area. there was no victory parade. of course, in my alcohol, which isn't and done it in the, in the dorm bus, it's worth mentioning because the fighting still going on that it will continue. so
9:26 am
they're making significant advances. no, and certainly no sort of a breakthrough, which is exact, which is what they wanted. a couple, refusing to surrender military analysts. frank lead, which thank you very much for the update there. thank you. and before we go, when andy warhol print of marilyn monroe has fetched and you break ordered auction for work by an american artist, silk screen portrait tangled shot sage blue maryland changed hands in new york for 100 $95000000.00. $160.00 for image was one of a series will hold made after the actresses death, becoming one of the most famous examples of part. a reminder of the top stories by following foyer shelf she link is prime minister, has announced his resignation. the hinder by japan said is standing down after several people were killed in mass protests over the countries crippling economic crisis. his brother,
