[000:00:00;00] news . this is the the news life from 5 man nato stage is the largest air force exercise in its history, that by germany. the drills involve 25 countries and more than 10000 troops. the seed was sending a message to moscow. also on the program. the leaders of germany called is on france, meet in paris, to discuss an upcoming nato summit,

and continued support for your christ. told me to tell you the prime minister, sylvia valdez. guns dogs, aged 86 back at the legacy office, controversial data. i'm telling you that the i'm feel welcome to the program. nato is staffing, age biggest, ever. agile is very involved. thousands of troops and backdrop from 25 countries known as operation ad, defend most of the drills being staged in the skies over germany. the heads of the country that full size of the exercises and demonstrates in the alliance this defense capabilities looked rough. i advice in the northern states of lower saxony is having us a central logistics hub for the money of this. ready

for lift off. nato is flexing its muscles high up in the sky. this time, under german leadership. the goal of this exercise is to practice getting good, some people from a to be in the event of an attack on and they took country. and then such a scenario. germany would take on a vital role. deutschland is germany is at the heart of nato's defense planning because of our central location of your items planning variations i plan to conduct a t a. this is where allied forces i received and supplied in. this is the place they must through this request and almost looked physical support including from the host nation to them. and we still have a lot of catching up to do here. and which ones you, i'm to know a bleaching not a little bit off. the german and us apples spelt atomic the maneuver 5 years ago, but with the rushes invasion of ukraine may do exercises like this one have taken on a new significance. nato says it wants to send

a political message of the turns and it is willing to interrupt the daily life to make it clear. 3 flights and have to be temporarily close to civilian traffic. meaning luckily, delays on some civilian flights. more than 10000 soldiers from nature their countries all participating in numerous drills, india and on the ground. but the operation has also joined criticism. the my boss from jimmy's left party told national media defense capabilities are imperative, but there's very little defend the lots of saber rattling in the right down. the maneuver is scheduled to last for until the 23rd of june. no doubt rush, i will be watching closely. let's. let's pick this up, ben with code fall guy who's a former us special representative for ukraine informing us on basset to night. so he's not with a b g on lobby group. joining us from washington,

welcome to the w. i'm. let's stop please me, your thoughts on those words from germany's left project criticizing operation ad defend as having little to do with defend and more to do with cyber arrived today. uh, no, i completely disagree with that. we, we have a situation in europe where russia is attacking ukraine has killed thousands and thousands of people and has threatened other countries. any country that was a part of the former soviet union is invited. americans cross hairs. so nato was doing exactly the right thing by demonstrating that it has a air defense capability and aerial capability. second demand, and therefore, russian would be for much to try to attack native country of these exercises ratios . what would happen in the event of an attack on a native country of how much has russia's aggression, i'm very power is a power into incompetence. and this will,

how much has that changed nato thinking about a confrontation with? so nato has always been prepared to determine the threats that by being willing to defend against them. and this is an expression of that. but you see a couple of things here because russia has launched this major aggression against ukraine. this exercise is bigger also because russia has hardly chewed up its ground forces in ukraine. its air capability remains largely intact. and this is a way for nato to demonstrate that that air capability is no match for nato. right . when you're pregnant, cancer offensive has begun, and cave says that they to be taken a cluster of villages. indeed, and that's convention i'm what are you making of what you're saying this contra offensive as well? so for this is not a significant portion of ukraine's forces that are prepared for the scanner offensive is a lot of testing and probing on different areas of the front. even with

a small proportion of forces, they've been able to make some games that i think we have a lot more. yep. to see that the ukrainians are trying to gauge where best them launch a major offer. and so what do you, what do you think we are likely to see next from ukraine is positive? this i think you're going to see what we're already seeing, which is a longer range artillery strikes to knock out and rushes, logistical supplies and support for its forces. that are in ukraine, that's the 1st thing. and then secondly, these kind of probing attacks to see where the weaknesses are in rushes defenses. at a certain point, i think you will likely see a major combined orange defenses by grain. but that, that may help you right away. i mean, this phase may go on for a while. yeah, i mean, let's this now look sort of a head to the medium to long term. you. you have said that there is no security for your to without ukraine joining nato. can you see this will ending in

a way that is decisive enough for nato to allow that to happen? uh huh. yes, absolutely. i, i think that there is no way that russia can win the war that they have set as their objectives, the overthrow of the government, and keep taking over the whole country and eliminating the idea of ukraine as a nation or people that's going to utterly fail. and the more resources rush it throws into this, the weaker they become. so i think people in russia are beginning to realize that this war is a trailer. and as a result, i think it's gonna create some changes inside russia. that's what i think will ultimately be necessary in order for russia to stop the war. really use no spring. that's a very small will be so decisive that not only will vladimir putin be taken off, so no longer be in charge of russia. but that, that won't be a sort of long, lingering sputtering end to it. well,

i think that it's possible this will go on for some time. but this is having a devastating impact on russia and the people in russia and the leads in russia know it. so i don't think that they are allowed to continue this indefinitely. it may take a long time, and i'm convinced that as long as brewton is able to direct the forces, he will direct them to continue to fight. but as we seen already this year, the russian forces are no longer able to advance control because you're talking so much for joining us. kind of fall, come from the be geography. thank thank you or french presidency. manual macro has said that your training counter offensive has started on, was meticulously planned majors come instead of meeting with the german chancellor, olaf shots, and the published president. andre dude in congress. 3 days is that he's guessing ongoing support, st. crane and pen for next or something 50 wait, it's next month to try. the actual main thing is known as the volume or triangle must be gone in 1991,

the instant jim assisting all 5 of so i can respond to those who the child is in power as covering the story. welcome, rosie. i understand they have just spoken to the press. what did we learn? well, no surprises that it was all about to crate and was all 3 leaders sledging to keep up support for 2 years, for as long as it takes. and of course, they know so that this comes out a critical time preschool because ukraine's country offensive is underway. in french president macro and said that could last for several months, but critical also because all 3 of these man have a big data circle in read on their calendar. and that is the nato summit, which is coming up. all 3 of these are these 2 presidents of the german chancellor will be at that something that you created will also be invited to you has made it clear. it's coming with a wish list. it wants a road map toward one day joining they just 2 days a tech attach among these 3 leaders prompts poland and germany to discuss about it,

discuss what might happen at that crucial summit in just a few weeks time. and all that still based divisions over ukraine's design to become a member of the alliance. there are certainly more divisions, don, ukraine would like that. we heard, for example, from the polish president andre, due to a, talking about giving ukraine. it's theorist wished to give it a green light at the end of a total. he said, a clear vision of how rich we could become a member of nature, president macro and meanwhile mentioned that ukraine should perhaps be given what he called the perspectives. it has a right to german chancellor, olaf schultz, meanwhile, made absolutely no illusion. don't mention all of you craved potentially joining a so, and you can see perhaps subdivision it's very light snow. germany is not the only way to measure which is seen as more reticent on this front. and of course there are concerns among the subject so called respect potentially escalating this more into an even bigger conflict. so certainly subdivisions we're still remaining here

in paris. tonight's okay, so unlikely that ukraine is going to get any good news about nato membership in the next few weeks. well, what? it will not get a, a full membership. we will not see ukraine's flag hoisted at that day to somebody, but what it might get something in between will, that is a question that remains. might there be some tougher language, some clear language on when or a fand, how are you creating for join? nato, might there be some talk of security guarantees or insurance? is that something these 3 men mentioned here? tonight, might there be an all grading of the formats in which you crate? i need to officially hold talks and be sitting there. that's also potentially on the table. i cannot assure you, certainly count but, but any of it will be usher outcome but you can, but you crated will keep loving towards that. so the rosie rosie bush not in paris, is what gets the most doors making headlines around the world. the kinds defense

ministry satellite strips of re taken control if i, 5th village from russian forces intern that scratch or beach and that's partially occupied by russia. pregnant troops release this video, which that they say shows, imposing with that flag and start to shave, but rushed as ministry says it has to be power. ukraine's attempts to advance in the swedish think time because one of the world is drifting into one of us. one of the most dangerous periods in history, the stucco international peace research institute, that's a number of operational nuclear weapons rows for the 3rd year in a row. in 2022 groups at the world's governments must find ways to cooperate in order to come to your political tensions. tucker's president budget type, the other one says any deal resolving cyprus these i think the vision must be based on the recognition of a breakaway tucker separate states in the islands. no. made the remarks in nicosia

during his 1st overseas visit was re election. but even resolutions have caused by a single sign for us with the federal structure, the, the least 40 civilians in the democratic republic of congo reported to have been killed in an attack on account for displaced people. officials say malicious launch the attack in the tool. the province comes reports of the just miles from an un peacekeeping bass. heavy clashes and gun and 5 have resumed in the suit and these capital, how to after the end of a 24 hour seats 5 agreed to is the delivery of a witness to say the fighting between the army and the power ministry, rapids support forces. some of the heaviest and weeks, some people may find images in the next reports. distressing fellows over the sea, denise, capital gunfire and explosions ring out at regular intervals. this is what every day life looks and sounds like for the people of got to as many are afraid to leave

the hinds, although as these pictures, so they not safely either. so don's deadly power struggled doesn't stop at the bolts of residential houses. not even the dose of both images. and may, it became known that more than 70 children, harrassed in the capitals of my coma. oh, finish with that as fighting raged around them, they were infants, toddlers and older. children may still say to have died from fever. go to market. oh, i like a food. thanks to a rap pulls and fighting the remaining all fins has since been rescued on june. second, the, i see a see move some 300 children to a safe location, south, east of cartoon to the, been there for the past 6 weeks. so it was really for us, really released to see if we could bring them to safety. now,

despite the successful mission, the events that the all may come, i often it's our brutal illustration of the humanitarian situation in 2 days. so don, 8 agencies say that i'm millions of people who are in desperate need of food and medical aid. some of them trapped and dangerous locations that are difficult to reach as we are responding and we are providing support, but it's extremely challenging to meet all the needs and to, to reach everyone wherever they are simple are. and so don started in mid april, pitching the army, led by up to the top to the board, him against the so called rapids support forces. a powerful parent military group, led by his former deputy mohammed have done douglas the chief grapes side of pulling out at the managing. the paramount luxury flows into the army and long smouldering resentment,

abrupt it into open combat when the recess moved in to catch him. soon after the violence spread, leaving up to half of students population in need of aid. when dan situation is broken into the middle of the before the already 15000000 people with facing holes with all the this number of interviews according to the un, more than full 100000 people have fled to other countries such as chad, egypt and the central african republic, but not everyone can make it out. a new conflict as sold to have cost an additional $1400000.00 people to be internally displaced. our homes were burned and we lost all our belongings. we need help. we just have medicine to be provided. that's the most important thing. since the

children and elderly people staying here, international mediators have attempted to resolve the increasingly dire situation so far without success. until the 2 will ring parties lay down the weapons for good . the focus of students, people, young and old, will be on survival. nash chevy is a canadian just based in kyra. he gave us an update on developments. and so down i'm hearing are ready for the desktop, is mounting in the southern boat of cartoon. so towards the self i just received messages earlier today from, from actors and surface there that said about a total of 18 people have been killed in shows that were launched from candidates, but also from bombardment. which suggests that must have been from the military and the canons could have been from either side. and so we see,

but the resumption of clashes is already spiking the desk. so within the capital, just moments after the cease fire concluded instantly ridge here's remembering. formerly to silvio berlusconi who has died at the age of 86 following months of illness. the millionaire i'm needing to talk to him was the country's longest southern prime minister. and he remained active in the public safe and after leaving office in disgrace and spock in control was the last year with comments interpreted as being supportive of russia. wednesday has been declared that natural day of morning easily bids farewell to one of its most influential political figures, silvio berlusconi, dominated the worlds of business and politics for decades. a billionaire who made his fortune from the thriving meteor empire and the populace lead a plague by scandal. don, yeah, italy learned from him that it should never have limits imposed on it. but it

learned that it should never give up. who with him we fought one last many battles tool and for him to we will bring home the goals that we had, set ourselves together. your good buys, you'll view the, you'll see many loved him. many hated him. everyone today must recognize that his impact on political, but also economic sporting and television. life was unprecedented. bella started, he presented himself as a self made man. he transformed italy's political landscape, building the country's biggest commercial tv network and leading forth. so it's hardly a century rise political party with his polarizing policies. critics accused him of eroding democracy, and he was infamous for diplomatic gaps and scandals. the most notorious of which centered on his so called bunk among the policies bellis garden, the faced prosecution more than 30 times for alleged embezzlement. false accounting, bribing a judge, and for allegedly soliciting sex with

a minor. after initially being convicted, he was eventually acquainted of the charges and meet the scenario, bowling scandal. he step down as prime minister in 2011 by millions of battalions, celebrated his phone from power. despite the controversy many admired his brush style, a really awesome media, you seem to multiple anyway, i'm sorry to hear it because even though i don't show his views, the tools, he was to say that he did really historic things i have all these years. and he was a great political impresario story, as i don't know, what bad things this will lead to, but i'm sure this will be very destabilizing for, for so totally a in recent use, belzoni was in and out of hospitals. as his health became increasingly fragile. he

leaves behind a new generation of more radical right wing populist politicians. bellis carney will receive a state funeral on wednesday at milan cathedral. let's get more from john list that seem a group to who's in the italian capital. welcome savings. so tell us more then about the political legacy of this controversial populist as well as we saw in that report. i mean, so the ballot scone very much the color full slip boy and personality that he was right from the beginning. and he started off with the success in his business career, whether as a property management, whether it's a media mogul, a founding, the media set, a media empire, which was it leads, basically largest commercial broadcast up. and then of course, also his success in the sporting arena, holding the ac milan of football club that went on to win various championships,

that he extended this success into political life as well, appealing to voters. and in fact, at the time when he started his political career, he was really a fresh based, an untested character. and people were drawn to that. and then she continued many, his detract, obvious detractors would say, using his tv channels and says, surely to mil, to support for his political aims. he had that tool, i guess in a way to increase his supports. and on top of that, one could also see that he was very crucial in terms of letting more right wing parties really enter into politics when he was probably being still, he was often in coalition with these right wing parties like the northern lead party, as well as the national alliance party, a post fashion spotty, he included the in his coalitions and even with the current government,

now the covered right. we can coalition government the crime it is the georgia maloney hadn't even trace her own political stock to mr. butler scone. she was relatively unknown when he made her a junior administer in one of these on the a government's so that was pretty much his legacy, you could say. and so how was able to hold onto political power for so long despise all the sex and corruption scandals. a whole lot of his di, hot supporters, many of them. so the scandals and the t odd legal cases against him as a proof of his persecution by judges and prosecutors. mister, but the study was very come by plane. what, what, what some could see the victims, todd and that helped support he's, he's, he's political support as far as the tenants were concerned. he also spoke to people using a very simple language and he often talked about cutting taxes and cutting

bureaucracy. and that appeal to votes is when it came time to elect the future leader. he was. ready so rich and successful and simply very well known for many tablets. but even though he may have had a lot of support in the past, if you look at the last election, this website on the policy at only 88 percent, 8 percent of the vote share you guys for that. so i'll just see my group to in ro, lightest on the life times of the lights. so you'll hear about us getting to look at some more headlines from around the world. swedish climate activist grads. a total back has joined protesters in germany, demonstrating against the funding fossil fuels by banks. and governments demonstrates as a big gathering of the lessons with your phone. whenever partridge folks are on the way ahead of the next global climate conference in december. in columbia, new details and continuing to emerge about the rescue for children who have
