4:03 pm
a little bit of light to shine on, you know, of some different demographics within their homes. which of course, as you, as you mentioned, are grappling with severe shortages of basic needs. meanwhile, hundreds of foreign diplomats and citizens have been evacuated from cartoon, foreign offices of rush to transport their citizens back home as the fighting shows no sign of abating. more than a 1000 european union citizens are among those being evacuated. germany has ever lifted 300 people out of sudan, including german citizens and other foreign nationals. evacuees have been flown out on 3 plains, the 1st of which touch down in berlin to day. now let's take a look at the latest in an e. you plan to support ukraine. ford ministers are meeting and luxembourg. today to discuss caves appeal for more weapons and ammunition in its fight against russia. the ministers are debating a 1000000000 euro procurement plan to boost ukraine's weapon supplies as part of a joint arms deal. but there have been disagreements among member states and use
4:04 pm
foreign policy. chief, joseph brown says those must be resolved soon. ukraine's foreign minister joined the meeting remotely and called for urgent action. let's get more on that from dw is rosie burkhard, who is following that meeting in luxembourg for us. rosie you've been speaking to ministers there. what are they saying about where we stand with this plan to buy ammunition for ukraine and what are the main points of contention? will the earth he need has been facing pretty public frustration from ukraine over the implementation of this plan? i say the word implementation because there was a broad political agreement on this plan to shore up supplies of ammunition for you . craig weeks ago. already know it's a multi track approach on one track. the european union is a helping to reimburse funds for member states to draw down on their own supplies of ammunitions, which they already have their own stockpiles and send them on to ukraine. know that particular approach is already underway and that's something which ukraine up thank
4:05 pm
the european union for. but the heart of the debate know at these talks lies on the 2nd problem of this approach. and that is where the you is supposed to be jointly procuring ammunition for ukraine for the future. now, there is some legal wrangling going on behind closed doors over the exact definition of what it means to procure ammunition from the e. you arms industry. so from companies based in the you and we're talking really here about detail such us where our components in certain supply chains, a source for them. or if there's a european union based company which might have a factory outside the block. now, some ministers that i've spoken to or simply dismiss this bureaucratic others, however, and i think particularly the worth noting here that we understand the france is the one leading this debate. well, it's very genuinely held belief and desire to try and be thought that you use own arms industry for the future on the one hand to deliver on those promise is to stay by keep site for as long as it takes. and on the other hand,
4:06 pm
to also back fill their own ammunition stockpiles and adapt to this radically changed security architecture in europe, which the war and ukraine has brought about. no damage for calais, but virtually addressed a foreign ministers here in luxembourg. but it would perhaps better be described as for the virtual dressing, dine because what i've heard is that he used very stern language to urge a swift and a sweet speedy or approval of that 2nd try on joint procurement of ammunition. perhaps that will get ministers talking more. i don't expect any full resolution at these talks, but perhaps among the levels of ambassadors who are lower lower level and technical discussions in the coming days. and of course, what ukraine will tell, ministers is that this is not a technical matter toll, but rather a matter of life and death, i think is how ukraine is framing this. okay, so still some sticking points in the same as your buying plan. thank you. so much for that update that is des, blessing partnered and
4:07 pm
i wanna see if we can get it straight across a to keep now for the you there. and right now, why didn't you correspond it really a contract or roman? tell us more about what sort of military aid ukraine currently needs from the west . well, it's easier to say what your grain doesn't need or maybe needs less urgently, which would be lighter, arms, small arms, or all the rest are especially things like tangs like artillery. armored vehicles all that ukraine needs that and the ukranian foreign minister mitchell clever. mentioned all those heavy weapons when he spoke to the e. u foreign ministers today via video link. so he also spoke about ukraine and fight a fighters wanting to start training on western types of fighter jets likes f sixteens . but the west is very reluctant to, to do that at this moment, at least on ukraine, also needs electronic warfare. this is what we hear here in the ukraine from

ukraine and military experts that are at the corvette ukraine urgently needs shell's shells and shells once again because the crannies preparing it's a major offensive. it is not clear when it will start, but it is expected that during that offensive ukraine will will need much more ammunition than before. and with that expected counter offensive looming, can you tell us where things stand right now in frontline battles all the fighting continues along the front line in the east, in the don bus region with the city of baltimore being the focal point of that fighting the ukrainian forces are very slowly losing ground, their russians are advancing, but also very, very slowly and ukrainians continue to hold the the city of blackmore, ukrainian, president of lety miss lansky. erm once again mentioned in an interview how important that city is to protect or several of cities and towns close to the

smooth shows, the west and at the command of the training ground forces visited the region. also, i am maybe trying to stabilize the situation. so experts here in p if are saying that we are probably approaching a tipping point, where ukrainian forces could be forced to retreat or to a start a counter offensive. it may be on a limited scale to still do russian advance by behold, i'm interesting that we heard a, a drone attack in crimea over the c m, according to russian. so says, at least 3 thrones were, were there at night. and it looks like ukraine is testing russian defense lines, testing the russian lexi fleet ahead of the much expected offensive operation. thank you so much for bringing us up there. that is that roman contract or reporting for us from today. and we can turn now it to some other stories. meetings around the world's global military spending rose to
