that was the german anthem played by the german military orchestra. or the

of the,

the, you're watching the double your news. if you're just joining us, we're bringing live coverage of the visit. fine, ukrainian president. what am, here's the lensky to the german capital where he has just arrived at the chancellor . a with talks with transfer. all of schultz is the ones he was just received with military honors. and i also standing by following all of these developments is dw chief political correspondence, you know, has a, who is in fact in front of a chancellor in berlin. and our, our political correspondent, thomas barrow is still with me in the studio. so, you know, why don't we begin with you your on science and it isn't, is every political leader who is greeted with military honors? what is the significance of how so landscape is being graded in berlin today?

and you can't overestimate just how important this visit is, is to the german government, to the relationship between germany and ukraine. they symbolisms that the ukrainian president followed him, is the lensky is actually here. and holding talks with a german president, frank by the stein my us, and this was a rocky relationship for much of last year. and this also comes at the time when of course, you train is preparing for a counter offensive in germany. and nowadays, big military package on saturday, so strong seeing the signals that the germany does stand firmly behind to train. that was the loss of doubt from you train last year, just how reluctant gemini was and how willing it was to support you've trained militarily. but, and this is now really the symbol of 2 countries trying to open

a new chapter and leave all these differences behind. some of the music landscape is being treated here in berlin. likes a u. s. president or liking these really prime minnes. so when they come the whole area here, the government court has uh, code and all this is also happening here today because of course it is a highly risky visit that we're leeks all the details of the plan, just how berlin police have been preparing for it. i've, i'm good, i'm frustrated ukrainians extremely. so this is something where the payment, the police are having to investigate now just how this could happen. and still, all of them is the landscape. did pull through with that, he did arrive in berlin up until the very last minute. it was clear and nobody was allowed to talk about the fact that he was going to come all that to you with that . and people are making preparations. so i can hear these big sigh of relief almost from members of the german government. this is actually happening that we just

listened to the ukranian and some played at the chance of re behind me. you know, thomas or you mentioned this before, that it's no coincidence that's the landscapes visit comes a day after germany announced his massive financial aid package for ukraine. the biggest one to date tell us about that. if you look at what's presidents that landscapes trying to achieve with this visit, you can say that on the short term, it is about military support. so the fact that germany announced this package with 2700000000 euros and military 8, the biggest package that germany has offered yet is a sign that mr. savanski is taking that this a with him back to to cube that he has achieved his short term goal. if you look at what the medium to long term goal could be that has to do with political support with embedding. ukraine further into european struck says many european countries

have signal that they would like ukraine to be part of european structures or even transatlantic structures like, like nato. but one thing is what they say, and another thing is what actually can happen in that regard. so we may see some sign of support verbally, but i don't expect that to happen in a very concrete way just yet. but mixes that ask you would be interested in getting some sign of support. that is not only about the media to time isn't only about, that's military a, just not only about nomic aid, it's also about the long term perspective for ukraine within the european union framework. so those are the 2 things that i think mr. savanski is trying to achieve with this visit, as well as what nena, already mentioned. namely, making sure that the rocky relations from the past that the controversies from the past are actually set aside, are actually an issue of the past. and that both countries can look forward especially considering that many on alyssa saying that the, that the word you clay now is entering the very difficult phase. so you craig could

actually count with german support in this very difficult space. so nina, as thomas was just talking about and the hope is that these previous rocky relations between germany and ukraine as a result of germany's initial reluctance to supply hardware for ukraine's military to fight against the russian invasion. now the best clearly changed and that germany will be providing all sorts of military equipment. do you feel though, that the perception of germany in the ukraine will somehow change? and what about the perception among the german public? how did they view the governments sudden increase in support and commitment to ukraine moving forward of the well, there was no doubt that germany was on the side of you train. that is not something

that was ever put into question when it comes to public support. here in germany for just how to help you train, you do see a picture that is like a divide that many people think it's going to fall. gemini has a history of staying out, trying to stay out of military conflicts around the world and not being involved militarily. and there's always lots of debates, also with a german parliament, with a civil society here. there were rules in place that said the germany couldn't deliver weapons to active crisis regions. now these rules were all over throwing essentially off the rest as full scale invasion happened last year. and germany is in the process of redefining itself and also reckoning with a fact that sometimes you do need to have military and resistance capabilities in order to defend the values that this country stands for. and the politicians from this government all agree that it is something that russia is clearly threatening,

not just ukraine, but a fundamentally the international piece order and multi lateral organizations. and that this is not tolerable. so no country should be allowed to move board as by force is a signal that is coming out of germany and with the symbolism of sending this big military aid. now of course space is assigned to gemini, says we have understood, but we are a country that is moving slowly. so just how quickly we can deliver might be a different question. and here in the general public, there's also a debate about why do you not try to bring peace negotiations. ford's more and the government is having a hard time trying to explain to voters as well that this is something that can only happen once the war has ended. and this is something that only letting me perusing can do the w's. nina has a standing by the chassis for us and thomas sparrow in the studio. thank you both
