their home then they run in spite of bump, very government reprisals. an income, if you look into how nice the 3 dots july, 29th, and dw the, the see the we news line from berlin, jo by the hills, nato unity. after a summit with northern leaders, with an eye on moscow. the us president bounced over whelming american support for the alliance. they also expressed it hope that ukraine's counter offensive confront negotiations and rushes invasion. also coming of the united nation says, a mass grave has been found in some done. local people were forced to dispose of

the bodies in the mass graves denying those killed a decent burial. un says at least $87.00 people were killed in a massacre in west star 4 and blamed a paramilitary group and southern europe. welters a heat wave is pushing temperatures above 40 degrees celsius. torres are urge to take care and hot spots from rome. chafin the, i'm fairly, it's good to have you with us. you as president joe biden has reaffirmed his commitment to nato's newest member finland as he wraps up his visit to your thinking in helsinki. volumes of the us and finland are working in lock step for a more secure pass for the world. instead of nordic summit, which also included sweden, denmark, iceland in norway address challenges,

including clean energy, regional security and technology. the tax came on the hills of this week's nato summit in lithuania. see, this was a war and ukraine high on the agenda by him said he's hopeful that negotiations will bring the war and ukraine to an end. i don't think the working going for years for 2 reasons. number one, i don't think that they are, the russians could, could maintain the water forever. number one, in terms of the resources and capacity. number 2, i think that there is going to be a circumstance where a venture really presence, who is going to the side is not in the interest of russia economically, politically or otherwise to continue this war. but i can't predict exactly how that happens. my hope is an expectation, as you'll see, that ukraine makes significant progress on their offensive and that it generates in

under goshen settlement. somewhere along the lines of that meeting bite and also called finland an incredible assets to nato. charlie's alone, his pastor nack is a security expert at the finish institute of foreign affairs, and i asked him what finland brings to the table for a few different things. one is a broader sense of security. suicidal resilience, which we've seen in ukraine has been the core of an actual defense capability. then there's the military geography of sack here a couple we said in, in bill know that finishing the swedish, made to membership changes radically the entire military geography of northern europe, not just the nordics. and then 3rd there. and there are very concrete military capabilities that exist at the moment in, in finland. you know, the fully mobilized field army is larger than germany's military. 280000. a fleet

of over 60, modern, fully ready and capable. plato, jets, american ones, new ones, f, 35 is coming. so there's a real military capability and interoperability which has been built over 30 years of nato finished partnership. the border from lind shares with russia is over 1300 kilometers long. how has the sense of security and the country changed since it's showing nato as well? if you look at polls finish, feel more secure, of course, going forward, finished. assume that it is up to finland to ensure that we have a robust defense capability. but in the future, if something were to happen, both of the terms component and if that fails to defense components, it will be done together with others. now on a daily basis, of course, i don't expect feelings foreign policy. these are the restaurant to radically change because of nato membership. there's still a lot of practical things that,

for instance, finishing the russian border guards have to communicate about every single day. and in the end, it is russia's decision on how it creates its neighbors. we've seen in the tragic since of ukraine, what russia sometimes thinks of its neighbors and that view of its neighbors is probably wyatt over 80. percent of fins are very happy that finland is now and they don't remember me, but they do not want to lean. so we on nato, how is finland preparing for the still existing possibility of russian aggression? while we, we've kept, unlike most of europe in countries and national mandatory military service for men . this, it resulted in the fact that there was about 900000 reservists. just a few months before the war expanding ukraine, finland decided to buy over $6060.00, for us at $35.00. the finish navy is having produced at the moment

a new class of ships. and of course then the land forces. the army is training more and more with sweden and norway, estonia, united states, in germany, to be able to, if needed. no one wants a war, but if needed to defend finland together with others. how do the nordic nations feel about the result of the nato summit in vilnius, in respect to ukraine, specifically, is the same seem to be that the assistance to ukraine that is agreed on. it's of course and by lateral, but the commitment to do with this, the idea that ukraine's nate topass is now easier a one step path as a separate dental stilton berg said, and is a g 7. so security are shortens, are very good things in the northern leaders and just today said they support this approach and they're working on their own kind of nordic version of what g 7 said.

so i think you have to read it as very encouraging. and i fully expect that all of the nordic countries also by laterally will continue their humanitarian aid and military aid to ukraine. but finland, for example, was very much in favor of a stronger message of support for your brain, wasn't it? well here i, i, my sense is having been feeling that there were certainly some members that would have wanted to even see ukrainians. and they told me, member myself from a research point of view that would have been hard to see how that would have work to get consensus around that. but they were also nato members who wanted to give you credit and much less collectively. so we probably ended up somewhere in between, and i think finland as a new member is also partially feeling its way through. how do you do kind of politics with in your, within nato as a nato member?

this is one of the things we'll of course be following in the political and research world is how does finland's natal profile evolve over the coming months and years? charlie sloane, this pastor knack with a finish institute of foreign affairs. thank you so much. thank you. are turning to other news and the united nations human rights office says it has found evidence of a mass grave and suzanne's west star for region. at least 87 people were buried there. last month, the un office says it has credible information that the break away rapids afford forces, parent military and their allies carried out the massacre. as, as many of the bird people belonged to the non air of ethnic mas, solid group, their bodies were dumped into shallow graves. near the city of elgin, 9 a ethnic violence has escalated a recent weeks with rival military factions at war for months. now save them are gone, go as
