silva, i think i will live long enough to witness the factory farming. the great debate this week on d. w or a ah ah, this is didi of you. news lie from berlin. world leaders warn russia of the consequences of its aggression in ukraine. these are crimes against humanity. the u. s. vice president tells them unit security conference that russia must be held to account. plus ukraine is also in the spotlight at this year's

berlin film festival. president. a lot of mir zalinski is the subject of a new film by us actor sean pan, who followed the ukranian leader before and after the russian invasion ah. on pablo foliage, welcome to the program. international leaders gathered in munich have affirmed their long term support for ukraine, against russia's aggression day 2 of the munich security conference, or colds for collective action, with just days to go to the 1st anniversary of the war. there was agreement that the conflict can only and justly when russia withdraws its troops. a busy day of international diplomacy to graham with ukraine at the top of the agenda, germany taking the lead in presenting

a united front among the western partners. germany will help ukraine for as long as it takes together with our european and transatlantic allies and are made clear ukraine must win the war. when late is determined to expand the alliance through the addition of finland and sweden limits the european union is exploring ways for its members to team up and supply more ammunition to key evidence. we see that we can move mountains under the pressure, and therefore here too, these are not normal times. these are extraordinary times. and therefore, we should also look at extraordinary measures. william, both in an effort to escalate the judicial side of america, support for ukraine. ali the u. s. has formerly concluded that russia carried out systematic attacks against ukraine's civilian population international order. we

have examined the evidence, we know the legal standards, and there is no doubt. these are crimes against humanity. it is the strongest accusation yet from the united states, but carries no immediate consequences for the war. a war that according to china's talk, diplomat could be ended through diplomacy. julia connie, bitching as expected to on veal a piece proposal in the coming week or from. but knowing little about it, western leaders have reacted with skepticism jonya. all right, well joining us now from the munich security conference is our chief political cars on that need. a has a great to see you. so one of today's discussions which will that be bringing live here on d. w is cold visions for the europeans security architecture. so is europe on the

way to becoming more independent of the united states in terms of security policy? while pablo this is of course not a new discussion. european leaders have been talking about this for years. but i would say that 2 events in the more recent history have really underlined the sense of urgency for this matter. and for these discussions to take concrete shape. and one was of course, the presidency in america under donald trump, where the europeans essentially lost one of the most important partners. and the fear here is that the biden administration, which everybody welcomes and cools a very good friend and ally, could not when the next election in the u. s. in that picture might change again. and the 2nd big event was of course rushes of invasion of ukraine. so this is something where baltic states in particular countries that share a border with russia saying we need to become more independent. i mean,

a ukraine has stressed that it needs western weapons immediately. and permanently what can ukrainians take away from this comp, this conference so far? ukrainians have been calling for battle tank deliveries but also for fighter jets. but to me it seems one of the most pressing issues is the question of ammunitions. there is so much that is being used on the battle field at the moment that production is simply not keeping up here in europe, for example, with the ukrainian needs. so the european commission president was a funder lines, said that production needs to be leveled up in europe and that it needs to be standardized. and there are very concrete discussions about that. that is one of the message coming out of munich. the other one being king, battle tangs where germany is calling for more partners to join the leper to delivery coalition. germany has pledged a significant amount of these very modern tanks for ukraine,

but others have so far been more hesitant. so we might see some development there and, and then fighter jets, that is also something that ukraine is calling for. and there are very intense discussions here also with the defense industry happening behind closed doors. nina, let's talk a little bit about china because it's announced a peace plan for ukraine and russia. what you make of it? well, of course everybody else or the european leaders, the americans. everybody says we welcome any attempt by anybody around the world to try and end this war. but the tricky question when it comes to this announcement by china's chief diplomat one e p, that he says that china will put forward a draft for a piece plan is of course that nobody knows what's going to be in it. and the fia is that china might present a plan, calling on the west, the so called west to stop delivery of weapons to ukraine. now if that were to

happen, antony blinking from the u. s. f. a foreign secretary said here in munich, that this message will just have to be heard across the world. russia could end this war any time at the moment. and if russia stops fighting, then the war is over. but if you crane stops fighting, then ukraine is gone. thanks dana. deed of use, chief political correspondent, i will be bringing you all the latest from the munich security conference thrive today. russia and its wagner group mercer reese claim to have taken control of a village north of back, moved to a city that both sides have committed enormous resources to holding. the fight for background has become the longest running battle of russia's war with staggering casualties. for the wagner forces leading the assault, pounding away at their rush, an attack is fending off the relentless,

sold on buck moot. these a wagon group leader yevgeny pedagogy has claimed his troops have taken a village just outside the city. but ukrainian soldiers make clear how the russian advances here have come at huge cost and they're, they're sending a lot of troops. i don't think that's sustainable for them to keep attacking this way. they're just there. there are places where their bodies are just piled up. there the, there's a trench where they just don't evacuate their wounded or killed and they just leave them there and send more waves than waves of people. the u. s. says the tactics are all part of the wagner groups disregard for its own men's lives or sounds weak. i do want to say this about the long group and in particularly with respect to back move. i mean, again, they're treating their recruits largely context as basically as cannon fodder,

throwing them into a literal meat grinder here in human ways without a 2nd thought and will ukrainian soldiers have been defending the shattered city for months. now. they say west and equipment like these bush mazda ahmed vehicles provided by australia is helping government. but that more is urgently needed nearly did though, the budget give us more military equipment, more weapons. and we will deal with the russian occupier, but we will destroy them. other than that, but a more hill, modern western tanks are set to arrive soon. ukrainian troops already learning how to operate these german made leopard twos here in poland. but for now, back move defenders will have to keep working with what they've got that russia's invasion of ukraine nearly a year ago is reverberating through the berlin film festival, which began this week one hotly awaited screening is super power director,
