walker is following the conference in munich, let's 2nd a smarter yet to say to 3 really big speeches here at the munich security conference on the 1st a velocity minister lensky addressing by video message from key if and then all of shows the german chancellor and emanuel my call, the french president following on, and shelton, my comb, both with strong words of support for the ukrainians. as this war approaches his 1st anniversary, and the people here in munich look back over this year of war that began pretty much the last time everyone gathered here a year ago. but there are key discrepancies, opening up or around the question of what is the urgency of providing support to ukraine, and how long is this war going to drag on full. so let's take a couple of quotes from 2 of those speeches festival, from valadez lensky,

who said there is no alternative to speed urging ukraine supporters to get as many big, serious weapons systems from tanks to fight to jets across to ukraine as fast as possible to help him fight against the anticipated big russian offensive coming this spring. on the other hand, olaf shows saying that caution must take priority over hasty decisions and defending the fact that he took quite a considerable amount of time to come to the decision to provide tanks to the ukrainians a few weeks ago. a decision that caused many of his critics to accuse him of dithering and wasting valuable time as he led skis. argument in terms of speed is not just that ukraine needs to weapons to fight back. but also that if given the proper weapons faust, ukraine could finish the job,

it could kick the russians out of ukraine effectively. by the end of this year, he even promised that he could be back yes, in munich, in person for this conference next year, off to having a one, a victory against russia. schultz, on the other hand, emphasizing that germany is ready support ukraine for the long haul. anticipating that this could turn into a long war to this question about stamina versus speed. how fast to provide, what sort of weapon systems, the idea of speed versus caution. i think is gonna be an bigger and bigger one among western countries, considering how to calibrate their support to ukraine in the weeks and months ahead . certainly, we know from se lensky, he's going to be pushing that message that every 2nd counts. did you chief international editor, richard walker and munich? there were moving on police in pakistan's largest city of karachi. say they have

regained control of their headquarters of after it was attacked by taliban gunman. for people including 2 police officers, were killed in the attack. official say, while all 3 taliban fighters died, the incident comes just weeks after a bomb blast killed more than 80 officers at a police mosque. and explosion at police headquarters in karachi. oh, how do you know? the blast came after several hours of intense gunfire between police and the 3 taliban militants. dozens of offices were hold up inside the compound after the militant storm, the building reportedly wearing police uniforms and a lead police unit paramilitary ranges, and army snipers. quickly surrounded the 4 story building. officials say the operation ended when one of the taliban fighters blew himself up. the other 2 died
