[000:00:00;00] ah ah, this is, these are the news live from berlin. g 7 country is called for an end to russia's food war in ukraine. germany is foreign minister says millions of tons of grain are going to waste while russia blockades, ukraine's courts. the g. 7 fowls not to lead moscow's aggression succeed. also coming up ukraine claimed success and pushing russian forces away from car cave brush or abandons tanks and territory as it pulls back from ukraine. second city. but presidents zalinski warns of

a long war ahead ah, i'm really mohammed walking to the program for ministers from the group of 7 countries meeting in germany have called for an end to russia's blockade of ukraine's ports. german foreign minister and a lena bear book said russia was waging a food war by causing millions of tons of grain to go to waste. speaking out of gathering in vice in house, in north germany bare bach said g. 7 countries would never recognize roches attempt to change international hoarders through war. the menace is vowed to increase pressure on russia through sanctions, and called on china to not undermine international efforts to isolate moscow. or here's more of what the german foreign minister had to say. we support every

measure and every step they are taking to ensure the people in ukraine and this is also our common goal. s g 7 can live as everybody else in europe again in peace, but also insecurity and freedom in their own country. and we will support ukraine on this pause was whatever it take to ensure that they have freedom and peace in their own country. and we have also made very clear that it's our go, that rush this bridge was international law that the imperial strategy often aggression, which screeches into national peace order and law will not succeed well that spring in d. w as chief international editor, which had walker to on pick that g 7 meeting for us, sir, which at the german foreign minister said that they will be supporting ukraine with whatever it takes to make sure that they have the freedom and peace in their own

country. what, what did you mean by that? so yeah, what the, i think what they were talking about here at the g 7 foreign ministers is the kind of support the g 7 countries have been providing over the last 2 or 3 months of the war. and obviously a lot of financial support has been humanitarian support and increasingly, over the last couple of months in a recent weeks has been increasing military support. right up to kind of heavy weapons that we've seen western countries providing. and right here at the g 7 foreign ministers meeting, the used foreign policy chief announced another 500000000 euros of european union money for heavy reference to go to ukraine. so there's that on the one hand, but also they're talking about trying to provide ukraine with support or with the issue of grain which you just mentioned in the, in the lead up just there. the fact that there are 25000000 tons estimated to be stuck in ukrainian harbor harbors can't get out on to the high seas because russia is blocked blockading those ports. and alina burbock had

a pretty strong message on that. so we can take a listen to a clip, millions of tons of grain, our land here blocked by russia in ukraine's ports in a historic moment of this kind. we as g 7 must ask ourselves the question of whether in this year 2022 we had done enough in order to mitigate the impact and crisis of this war together. this is not our war. this is not a war waged by the international community. this is a war waged by the russian president, but we share a global responsibility and looking forward, they will be talks around sweden and finland, possibly joining nato. what's the latest on that? yeah, that's right,

so. so the kind of diplomatic action here in germany is moving down to berlin now, where the countries that are members of nature will be gathering for, for a meeting of the next couple of days in finland and sweden. they will be present at that meeting too, because those 2 countries now want to join nato as a response to russia's invasion of ukraine to boost their own security. but just at the last minute, rich attire, ad one, the turkish president. on friday, it said that he was skeptical about these 2 countries joining nato that he objected to them as a supposedly harboring terrorists. so i put a question to angelina burbock the, the german foreign minister, just earlier given that germany has strongly supported the accession of these 2 countries to nato. what she made of ad one's comments. so we can take a listen to that clip to in no uncertain terms. it wasn't nato that convinced finland and sweden or pushed finn and sweden to join nato. it was entirely down to

the behavior and actions of the russian president because he has basically force them into this alliance because they wanted to live peacefully with their neighbors. and i very much hope that their accession is approved. so clearly showing signals of hope and optimism for these accession talks to be approved. how likely is that to happen? will to be clear. i mean, turkey does have the ability as a nato ally or to stop or another joy, a country joining nato rules do say that a unanimous agreement by all of the allies is needed for a new alloy to, to join nature. but what is not clear yet, and this is really very fresh, these comments from over at up to add. one is just how serious he is. if he really does want to go to the point of completely blocking

a sweden and finland from joining nato. or if he's, he's known as a leader who's kind of transactional in his diplomacy. if he wants something, if he's out to get some kind of concessions or certainly there, you can expect this weekend of diplomacy as it moves down to berlin to be quite frantic in trying to work out. what are the turks playing at here? or is there something that they want, or is this a very, very serious objection to these 2 countries joining nato? but however, this turns out, you can certainly imagine that vladimir putin will be happy to be seeing this. certainly, the expansion of nato is a huge setback. for him, somebody who extensively wants to prevent nato from expanding at all. he will certainly be quite pleased. i think, to see this careful over edwin's comment. right. d, w as chief international editor, mr. walker. thank you so much. are you kind military says russian forces have pulled back from territory around the 2nd largest city,

give it says russia is trying to guard it's the pirates and focus attacks on regions further. east president fleming zalinski says more than 1000 settlements have now been de occupied, but he warned of a long war head. these were left behind in a village east of hockey of when the russian army was forced to retreat. ukrainian soldiers have managed to retake several villages on the outskirts of the city, but they remain on high alert. her possessive with forbidden little po, the front lines of the witches is not stable. a philosophy molly, for wallow, village went from hand to hand to wallet dark eyes took it back, it killed the cushion. the russian forces are using artillery, see and kick them out towards the water. all the while from that,

russian forces continued to launch artillery. moving behind the path of destruction, north of her cave. recent shelling destroyed this cultural center. while local residents were receiving humanitarian aid. at least 2 civilians were killed in the attack. meanwhile, in the west of her cave residence have started to return to what is left of their homes. this village has liberated any a few weeks ago. oh, yes, sure allusion of everything over all. everything is destroyed. good bear will look at road or a little last year. the road was fixed and everything was getting better. yeah. but after the russian troops made darkness. oh, we came to rebuild our house, but we need to live somewhere. we can't live in the subway forever. oh, as residence, grapple with a scale of destruction here, at least there's hope,

but the wall wilson over or let's go to cave and get latest from d. w a t s bullying her. so what more do we know about what's happening in the areas of khaki? if right now? ah, since i'm a 10 days or, or one week, approximately the ukrainians have been able to push the russian forces back from the city. the russian forces had entered the territories north of hark, if are quite early in the war and have been standing there. never shelling the city from there, pushing them back now. um and, and taking control of several village is there a eases the pressure on the city the day that much of the russian or the city is out of the artillery range of much of the russian positions right now. and there is even, there are even experts who estimate that the russians was when fully withdraw from

their because they're under such a big pressure there. and that was, of course, be a major win for ukraine. the city has suffered a lot in this war and which is talk us to some of the other places in the east. where are you crying for says all russian forces making progress on either side. well, there are incremental gains for the russians in the don. bye on the don bus from they are putting up more pressure on i see where the net, which is one of the most important cities there in administrative center for the ukrainian, one of 2 administrative centers with the ukranian control territories and anna at, at other places of the front, however, these gains are not om breakthroughs are, they are incremental gains, things are moving slowly back and forth, and the ukrainians seem to be a withstanding the pressure quite well and holding their line. so from now there is no decision, but it fights are intensifying. there's

a lot of heavy artillery working on in these places, and there are many, many soldiers on both sides that facing each other. so this is really a very tough environment and no decision is there yet in which direction it is going and what's the feeling among ukrainians living there right now? and there is a lot of hope that ukraine might win this war. and mike, when these battles from the beginning, the russian army has proven a lot less capable than many hard thought, old equipment, badly trained soldiers, bad logistics tanks, running out of fuel, et cetera, et cetera. we had all these news pretty much from the beginning of the war. and whereas ukraine has shown itself well prepared with a lot less equipment and a loss, a lot less military capability in terms of,

off of weaponry and, and, and money and etc, etc. but ukraine has made the best out of out of the situation. that's consensus here in the country under the hope is that with the arrival of additional weaponry, ukraine might really beat them back. how long this will take and what the estimates are is of course hard to foresee and things can also change on the ground quickly. it's a war and was take turns that nobody had expected sometimes to w mateus bollinger in here. thank you miss. well yes, look at the mother headlines taking place around the world. north korea's leader kim jong own is calling the cove at 19 outbreak in his country. a great disaster. 21. death reported on friday. the state news agency says more than 280000 people
