kremlin to reverse its decision. plus new earthquakes in southern turkey strike a nother blow to recovery efforts. at least 6 people are killed in a region already devastated by natural disaster. ah . hello, i'm clare richardson. thank you so much for joining us. russia is suspending. it's the last major nuclear disarmament treaty with united states. president vladimir putin announced the moved during an address to the nation. he loved the new start treaty came into force in 2011 and was due to expire in 2026. she couldn't also warrant washington that if the u. s. presumes nuclear tests it, russia will do the same issue would be written of 50. well putins,

audience of law makers agreed at the statement with applause. ah, i'll tell you. i repeat what russia is young withdrawing from the treaty. no, no, but even ladies suspending his participation. but before returning to the discussion of this issue, we should understand for ourselves what such countries of the north atlantic treaty alliance like france and great britain claim. jessica, from and high, we will take into account their strategic arsenals. that is the alliances combined strike potentially. so a company would barely but them. so aliens. well let's big now to detail these iraq shadow in riga are yury. tell us more about the new start treaty and how worried we should be about putin suspending rushes participation. well,

as the purpose of this treated clear is to reduce nuclear weapons, it's the only remaining element of the nuclear arms control treaties system between the united states and russia. and the 2 countries hold together about 90 percent of the world's nuclear warheads, which is pretty much so we should be pretty worried about this suspension or the treaty provides for mutual inspections on nuclear facilities on each other's territory. so that each side can make sure that the other side doesn't deploy more nuclear well warheads than agreed a month ago with united states already used to rush off, refusing to assist you, asked those inspections mosque or threatened to withdraw from the treat in 2026 completely and now this suspension comes put in explained to step by saying that united states and united states would be developing allegedly new types of nuclear weapons. and russia should be ready to conduct nuclear tests. now tell us your a more broadly about hooton's speech. this is his annual state of the union, but obviously this year taking place under exceptional circumstances. what were

some of the other major themes? well, the more arms west and ukraine is supplied by the rest. he sat to defer the russian push those arms back away from the russian border. that was probably an indication that russia might try to annex more ukrainian territories in his speech. and any case in any case that this was a warning to ukraine and, and warning to the west, 1st of all, to the united states. by the way, just in our after put in speech, the russian foreign ministry, it's among you as a monte. what? yes, massa to moscow and expressed a diplomatic protest because of the growing involvement of the united states. still, it is on the site of ukraine. if a said in a statement, basically it's the old fashioned way to reverse all accusations made against russia and to use the rest of the same of the same. and put in speech was an attempt to convince the girl to that, that the danger doesn't come from russia, but from the west for russia. now, he is speaking to

a domestic audience there. what kind of support does he have almost a year since rushes invasion of ukraine? well, oak, many or maybe it, most people in russia have long since given up the attitude to protest. most say it doesn't matter what's happening in ukraine was going on there unless the mobilization affects them personally, let it be put in north of that. and that's why the 2nd part of his speech or the, the larger one was about as his social policy of his government. also, he said that that presidential elections will be held in 2024. so next year in accordance with the russian laws. so is his speech today early as russian president clearly wanted to be seen, not only as the president of war, but rather as the president of peace, which is logical if you keep in mind he's ambitious to run for the president's and next year, one more time thank you so much for that update that des uria shadow enrica lafayette. really appreciate it. well,

nato secretary general yen sultan burge is urging russia to reconsider suspending its participation in the new start treaty. suttonberg has been meeting ukraine's foreign minister at the metro cool labor and the e. u foreign policy chief justice barrel at needle headquarters in brussels. more and thornburg gave a start warning over the possible consequences of the kremlin is no more nuclear weapons and her less arms control makes the world more dangerous. and that's the reason why innate the we are worse so hard earned to engage russia on issues related to arms control and wanted while i so supported the new start. and also why i'm calling on russia to day to reconsider. it's a decision to suspend his participation, the new, the start agreement. we have to remember this is another lost major arms control agreements. we have author rashaw started to wireless. the agreement that the

bound, the older intermedia drange weapons the i and if treated that led to the demise. so got her treated a few years ago. her now the answer suspending the older big nuclear arms control treaty or the new start which regulates put limits on the total number of long range strategic weapons. as nato chief young fulton berg bear speaking at nato headquarters in brussels, where we have dw correspondent, rosie burchard reporting rosie nato, calling on russia to reconsider suspending new start. what else have we heard? well, this is not the 1st time the nature has basically rolled out the red carpet for ukraine's foreign minister dmitri qu label the last couple of times. he was here, he told myself and other reporters that he had at 1st 3 items on his wishlist weapons, weapons and weapons. the 2nd time he said he had 3 more words,

foster foster and foster. and i think based on what i've heard here today, it's clear that those requests still stand as the winter thaws out. here in europe . russia is expected to launch major offensive, and ukraine and the foreign minister was here really renewing those appeals to western allies in nato. to keep up their support. and of course, what really stood out to me is given that we just heard to bite russian president putin speech versus what we've heard here is just the sense that these are 2 totally parallel universe is on the one hand, russia essentially blaming nate. so for its own invasion of you quail, of course, it doesn't use those terms to describe it. and the other hand here in brussels, a very clear line that moscow is the aggressor and we've in heard from the european union's foreign policy chief chief. you'll set brill who said that russia has been a bombing hospitals and starving cities. he says, ok, so no secret what ukraine wants, that you is trying to coordinate supplies of ammunition and other weapons to kiva.

what else can you tell us about that? full officials here at brussels, say this war has now become a race of logistics. and that is because ukraine is using ammunition faster than european companies, can produce it or reproduce it. and of course, that's a heritage of the way defense spending has evolved over the last couple of decades since the cold war. and no need to ally, say they need to change this route. they need to change perspective and get industry to ramp up production. know, with that in mind, the european union says it will come forward with proposals to jointly procure ammunition that should come road. the 7th or 8th of march, but of course, as one ukrainian journalist pointed out here, ukraine needs this ammunition note. so in the meantime, you are set braille that use foreign policy chief says he's written to all the defense ministers within this 27 member block to tell them to. in the meantime, draw down on their own supplies and keep sending this ammunition into ukraine. he says, this is now becoming urgent. thank you so much for your reporting. that state of

the correspondent receiver should at nato headquarters nearly one year into the war . russian and ukrainian troops are locked in battle without either side, making significant progress. much discussion has focused on weapons and ammunition, but both sides also need soldiers to use them. t w takes a look at whether troop numbers can make the difference on the battlefields. was near the town that had seen some of the bulls, most ferocious and prolonged fighting ukrainian soldiers load the howitzer and fire . they loaded up and fire again. one shell after the other directed at russian troops pushing forward towards buck mote, little control with the local. how do they manage to advance ocoee as often as they do it through massive attacks and a large amount of manpower mobility when the enemy comes to our positions. and there are a lot of them will, you know, they have much more firepower when our infantry has to retreat to more favorable

positions supported before to mark you, sir, be sure he can pull with the units. shells appear to be hitting the target. the media officer of the 80th assault brigade saying russian casualties are literally mounting. but every dead russian soldier is replaced by another. they're just the, the replaces, were their bodies. i just piled off there the, there's a trench where they just don't evacuate, they're wounded or killed and they just leave them there and sent more waves than waves of people. oh, it's agree, some image and a claim that cannot be verified with independent access to the front line limited. it's impossible to count the dead or ascertain how many trips are fighting well, but there is widespread consensus that moscow has a larger pool of people to draw from and is ready to do so with force if necessary . these are pictures from september when the kremlin announced the mobilization of

300000 reservists fronting protests and defiance among russian men of fighting age . her they are fears and not the columbus imminent, potentially sending tens of thousands more troops into battle welling or not. russia's president recently suggested that he didn't distinguish between his fighters, the brenwood, woollen tiers with those who signed a contract and serve under that contractor. those who came for military service through mobilization, believable, they all carry out their sacred duty to the homeland. and you see everybody is equal before the homeland repeatedly written witness. mm. in terms of she, a manpower ukraine, and russia's armies are like david and goliath. but that's not all there is to it. say keith and its allies. russia continued to introduce

a large numbers of troops into, into the theatre. those troops, sure, ill equipped, and they all train and because of that, there are incurring a lot of casualties. and we expect that that will continue o statements like that are unlikely to reach many people and russia, just like the ukranian claim of russian bodies piling up near the back mode front line. but with countless russian soldiers failing to return home after a year of war, more men of fighting age could have valid reasons to say they're unwilling to become cannon fodder. and proteins rule of all that if it plays out like that biblical tail of david and goliath won't be decided by troop members alone, while after making a surprise visit to ukraine. u. s. president joe biden has arrived in warsaw, white, and has met polish president on j. duda, along with many leaders of other countries on nato's eastern flank. the west

president's diplomatic mission comes just days before the 1st anniversary of the invasion of ukraine. andy w. alexandra phenomena is covering the bite and visit to warsaw for us. alexandra, u. s. president biden at meeting polish president on j due to today what's being discussed. well, when we speak to the people here who are already gathering ad said the engine royal palate of royal castle in war. so our president biden, the will hold. he is too much anticipated speech as you can see behind me. so when you speak to ordinary citizens and also polish of 5th officials, they tell you cannot overrate this visit. poland has been among the strongest supporters of ukraine. they took in 1500000 refugees from that ukraine. they provided 2000000000. you asked dollars worth of weapons, and they of course,

want to know that you asked is they biggest and reliable partner, and that is why you as president joe biden reiterated here, describing poland as a crucial partner for the you, as they will also talk behind, closed doors about you as the troops on the polish soil. there are $10000.00 of them already. there are rotating, but biden has made clear dad said at the u as once they wanted to establish a permanent base here. so all of that is on the agenda here. today, and it's quite a scene there behind you. alexandra, in this is heat from bite, and later today, do you think he's going to respond directly to claims from russian president vladimir putin? well, we can assume dead biden se advisors watched, put in speech, even though i don't think that they are going to rewrite joe biden speech that he is expected to hold later this afternoon. but of course,

this speech is going to be seen as a kind of risk ponds and said by then we'll certainly refuse the claims that luxury hotel made. for instance, to claim that it was the ukraine and nato dad had started this war. it's that lion vied in the will probably speak about did he will of course, also built on he's case on the case that he made in key of that. this is a battle between democracy. i now tell christine, and the former has been winning this battle like you so much for your reporting as dw brussels bureau chief alessandra phenomena reporting from warsaw. and we can bring you up to speed now with some other stories making headlines around the world . tie one's president says the island will strengthen military ties with if you wes science. when said at ty, once cooperation with washington is meant to curb, quote authoritarian expansionism, a reference to china,

this disaster. and i believe this will be the message of german 4, a minister on elena, bab, oak and the interior minister. the fever today both have already expressed their deeply felt sympathies and solitary t. and now, according to one spokes person, they want to get quote, an accurate picture of the situation on the ground. here they are visiting the airport in the tip, which is crucial for 8 deliveries to tacky, but also to syria. and they will come to this 10 city here in bizarre jake in cut him on russia province. i'm being told by officials here that this place currently houses some 1700 people, including 600 children. they of course, need help. the german armed forces the bond to spare, has already flown in more than 340 tons of aid including tense, camping, bad sleeping bags. so more aid pledges might be coming to day. overall,

there has been a great show of solidarity from many countries, not only from germany, we're talking about hundreds of millions of us dollars. as did the correspondent johan reporting, while for 4 decades, director steven spielberg has been packing cinemas with action ventures like jaws and jurassic park, and dramas, such as schindler's list and saving private ryan spielberg is now being honored for his life's work at berlin's film festival. the berlin ella, you can't see also have to take it more important than your hobby. steven spielberg is known for telling epic tails, but the directors latest film is based on his own life. i think i'm always honorable. uh huh. in terms of the movies i made a got, this is a very personal story. it's the 1st time i've taken a privacy public and i'd never done that movies a dream nominated for 7 oscars. the fable mens is about a young jewish boy who makes movies as

a way to navigate his own dysfunctional family. spielberg made his very own 1st amateur film at age 12. as a teenager, he toward universal studios and chatted up a movie executive. soon he was working there. spielberg's 1st major film for universal was the 1971 thriller dual high speed chase with a murderous trucker. a few years later, his film jaws would scare an entire generation out of the water. b 1980. so the beginning of the indiana jones franchise and of course e t that can you soul cool. cool, lou. the family movie about a stranded alien and a group of kids fighting to save him, held the record for the highest grossing film of all time. for 11 years until

1993 when spielberg broke his own record with jurassic park, ah save you in that same year spielberg's holocaust drama schindler's list about a german factory owner's plan to save more than a 1000 jews. the home on the film, 17 oscars should be on my trade. very few directors have made as many big budget movies across as many different genres as steven spielberg. but what's unique about steven spielberg's life's work that's being recognized here in berlin is the universality of his storytelling. and that is what resonates with viewers across cultures and generations. spielberg will receive the honorary golden bear at a screening of the fable max on perhaps next month, he'll be accepting more awards at the oscars or handsome jewish play

a youngster and the film kind of act as a primer to spielberg's career. we see his relationship with his family and making his earliest films and you can, it really foreshadows what happened later on a lead. as you've mentioned, the fact that the festivals also screening several of stillberg films means he's more than proven himself. if you had to pick just one to recommend, what would you say your favorite as well, my favorite place, definitely e t that i feel like a watch every year. it always makes me cry. and a lot of people know that be a little a cute alien in e t was actually inspired by a, an imaginary childhood friend that spielberg made up, invented after his parents divorce. and of course, a little boy yet did the strange from his father. this was also inspired by stephen's own family relationships. he did have a difficult relationship with his own dad for a long time and family relationships. children being a strange, single mother. they always play quite

a strong role in spielberg's films. heartbreaking in some ways, ah, now here just before i let you go, have there been any other surprises at this year's berlin? all that you think are worth mentioning. i let me tell you about the earth shooting star ceremony yesterday and not really surprised. this is something that happens every year. they introduce a lot of upcoming actors from all over europe to the public. and these people are not known yet, but may well become very famous. let me just tell you a few names that have been through this program before. daniel craig, rachel, vice carry, mulligan, alysia, be candor, but all in this program before they became famous. so we may well be saying a lot more from those people. they come to bowie and they introduced to costing agents and have a very exciting week, and i actually was out the ceremony. are you last night? okay, well, to keep an eye on them, but thank you so much for reporting. that's hello barbara. this is dw news from berlin. before we go, let's get a reminder of our top stories. at this hour,
