the next year. but will this promise meet the scale of the challenge? it depends how far and how long the war we lost our will is, or will this be enough for or not? so that's why we need to have and use all the tools that we have political pressure, political isolation, economic sanctions, to put the pressure on russia to end this war. not every one is impressed by europe's vow to keep arming t if beijing accuses brussels of adding fuel to the fire of war. and when the chinese president met his russian counterpart at a different diplomatic meeting this week, there were war words and signs of deepening friendship, a cause for concern among some new leaders. i think it is a little bit of an eye opener for us in europe, because if for maybe many, many people were, were hoping that china could somehow be, or take the, the role of a broker. china's not doing this at all. china is certainly moving,

right, know overtly on the side of russia. and this is actually a very big challenge and the big difficulty for all of us. another big challenge keeping europe's clean technology industries, competitive. some fear unity on the use way ahead could be undermined by a request from germany to car vote. an exemption for e fuels in e u plans to ban sales of new combustion engine cars next decade. amid criticism that it's too late to ask for changes, german chancellor, olaf schultz insists. compromise is on the horizon, escaped its anguish, nor not guns. it's really just a matter of finding the right way pragmatically of actually implementing promises. the european commission made ago was that if i understand the discussions between the commission and the german government correctly, as far as those responsible are concerned and everything is on the right track of justice, alice of generic

e leaders are also holding talks with the united nations secretary general, he warned that developing economies are facing a perfect storm of rising hunger, food insecurity and the fall out of the climate crisis and europe. he says she'd be taking the lead on finding solutions for on the summer to answer brandy w, brussels beer achieve are some of on norman and our correspondent. they call it calmly in a cave. welcome to both of you. let's start with you alex 100. the you wants to send you crime a 1000000 rounds of ammunition within the next year. what would like to see even more military support? i put this a question to ask tanya and prime minister colors asking her whether we might see any movement. for instance, on the matter of modern fighter jets, as you know, ukraine has been requesting them for quite a while, but colors made clear that ammunition is the top priority of you leader. it's here
7:05 pm
and actually the plan to provide ukraine would a 1000000 artillery rounds was her plan initially. so she was very happy that leaders, we were able to agree on that, and that, that they are going to endorse this plan here. however, we should not be not eve because this goal is very ambitious. we just needs to consider that according to as to maids. ukraine uses up to $210000.00 shells per months, and the european defense industry can only produce $25.00 thousands in the same time frame. so europe will have to massively ramp up production. now, nick, over to you, what was florida? zalinski is message when he's spoke why a video linked to eulu, this survey. people who heard that speech said it was very emotional, very emotive. he was talking about his experiences at the front lines. he's just
7:06 pm
been in don bass and is now on his way to the south to had a song. and i think he's really just calling for haste. this has been the story of the last year, the ukrainians, pulling their hair out, basically convinced that the europeans have sympathetic they might be to the ukrainian cause. just don't get how badly this ammunition is needed and how fast it needs to happen. they're still living in their own kind of bureaucratic time frame . that's the view from care of. interestingly, a communist made the rounds in care of a lot has been by one of jimmy's biggest on producers of the boss of hind motel who says that his capacity is only booked up for 2 thirds of what he could produce this year. because the bureaucracy, the comp brooks in europe just hasn't been able to get those contracts out. and to give him the certainty that those rounds we bought. so lots of room for improvement there. certainly. and i've, let's also talk about a china and it's support for russia being has just gone to moscow to hold horse was put in collie. i'm a dear friend. how concerned are you leaders there and brussels about what appears
7:07 pm
to be deepening ties between moscow and beijing. well, some of them, at least seem to be very concerned lat, can prime minister occurrence on a instance. he told us that she didn't pings visits to moscow, was an eye opener, a debt, if any one believe that china is impartial now, they see that china is citing with russia. other leaders, however, a more cautious luxembourg prime minister battle, for instance, told us that if he regards china, competitor an arrival, but also still a partner. and he suggested that it might be good for you and you asked rather than joe biden. to sit down with the chinese leader to see whether they can work together to help and this award. so as you can see, there are different opinions and that is probably the reason why, why no one here has really an appetite to start as to a digit. discussion on china right now, and one expert even told me that that would be like opening pandora's box at the
7:08 pm
moment. i'll respond and some are some of a moment in brussels and the calmly and key. thank you to you both turn out to have a look at some of the other stories making headlines today. so vacuum says it has sent for fighter jets to ukraine with another 9 do. and the coming weeks, this fulfills a pledge it made last week to donate the mig 29 aircraft and makes the back here the 2nd natal member after poland to pledge warplanes for the ukrainian armed forces demonstrators and france of blocked bust terminals, disrupt the train services and closed some schools and the latest protests over the government's controversial pension reforms. demonstrators have also blocked access to a terminal at paris, shall the gall airport of the plans to raise the retirement age. to $64.00, the talk is taking for chinese social media. take talk in the united states beloved
7:09 pm
by millions of young americans, the video up could soon be banned. government employees in the u. s. and several other countries have already been ordered to remove it from work devices. there are concerns stick talks, parent company may be sharing user data with chinese authorities. companies c o is now facing questions from a u. s. congressional committee. it has more than a 1000000000 active users. and over 150000000 in the us alone. but take talks, future in america is uncertain the popular social media up. let's people post shop videos about any subject, but it's who owns a platform rather than it's content that has raised concerns in washington. so look,
7:10 pm
we've expressed concerns over china as a potential use of software platforms that could endanger or threaten american safety and their national security. so that is the presence concern. that is why we have called on congress to take action. the up is owned by the chinese company by dance. and we know that what critics say that beijing could false take talk to hand over information, a millions of americans tick tock claims. it has never given data to the chinese government and would refuse to do so if asked the us and other governments have been the up from what devices. but there's a push for tighter restrictions. everyone is show here and the see of tick tock to day. i'm sued, the company c o shows in chew is on a charm offensive to defend the platform. including testifying before the u. s.
7:11 pm
congress to create a share to learn, or just to have some fact. and if lawmakers don't get the reassurance as they want, they could move to further restrict, or perhaps even bomb with social media giant from the american market. the ws correspondence stuff on siemens and washington told me why this is such a big deal in the us. well, there are 3 reasons. 150000000 active users in the united states as a massive number. other tech companies like and social media platforms like facebook slash meta face time, a snap jet, a google, instagram, all of them they would dream of those numbers and tick tock is gone through the roof and they are not really the u. s. companies with similar platforms are not really performing. so that's massive number 2 tech industry or the tech companies in the us are under scrutiny and suffer from
7:12 pm
a little bit of mistrust from specifically politicians. because mom, there is the thought that they are becoming too powerful and that they collect massive amounts of data. now the difference of course is, and that is number 3 byte dance, and that is the chinese parent company of take talk the problem and the concern here by us politicians, by the white house, by the, by administration, sit national security. how much excess does by dance slash hess, the chinese regime in beijing, or the communist chinese communist party on those data of 160000000 americans. and that is the big concern. now take those boss shoe is testifying in front of the congressional committee as we speak. and here's an interesting sound bite of that. he said earlier from that i want to talk to you about in a moment. let's have a quick listen. like i said, i have not had any discussion with chinese government officials. i don't know the political affiliation of everybody. i speak to us,
7:13 pm
i can't verify the statement. how did the committee react to this rather ambiguous statement? well, let me phrase this where there is no love spent in this hearing from the committee members towards mr. cher issue or she showed it there is no really good answer for him and, and saying like, well i never talk to anybody in china that really doesn't cut it for the committee members. and a lot of politicians he had uncovered for the white house either. there is a national security concern here, and that is by american intelligence services and national security agencies were involved with this. they are, can't, they can't get tired of re emphasizing look, this data is accessible for the, the chinese government. and we don't really are, we're not really comfortable of it letting this happen because they can do anything they want with this. and that is the core problem. so if the tick tock c e o says
7:14 pm
he never talked to any a chinese government representative while that doesn't really cut it, because everybody knows by dance is a chinese tech company. and it is chinese policy law that the government has and authorities, they have access to their data. they have to make it somewhat when asked at least knowledgeable to the government. how would you describe the atmosphere the hearing today? one no, as i said, not re friendly towards the tick tock see or not at all. um, this is you know, tick tock, manage something which you normally have really, really sell them here on the hill or in washing nor in the united states. unity between republicans and democrats. there's really a united front grilling the tick tock, c e o, and asking really tough questions. there's more to ask than just like how safe is actually your data and what you're telling us here. do we believe that my assessment is he can actually say whatever he wants?
7:15 pm
it's a done deal in terms off that politicians involved in questioning him on this committee and across those parties do not believe take talk is safe in terms of national security for the united states. didn't stephens e months there live from washington. thank you very much. the fun, and that's it from me and the news team from our rankoff lover weldon's update for you in at the top of the hour, of course. and i'll stay with us for documentary sears in berlin. me and the team, thanks for watching. ah and he tag a this is a starts in germany.
