the the, this is the, the news coming to live from berlin. crane's president visits washington to show up us support, present binding promises a new weapons package, but the log me as a landscape bases resistance from us lawmakers, plants, congress debates and future funding. also coming up tensions in europe on as protesters take to the streets of the armenian capital for the 3rd day, i agree with their governments handling as an economy power box complex. and several asian countries have been holding joint military exercises for the 1st time . and this height and tensions with china plus germany's football association names
1:01 pm
. it's new men's national coach julian naco this month, takes over the reins and trouble time support german. so the hello, i'm terry martin. good to have you with us ukraine's president. but a lot of me as a landscape has arrived in canada as he continues his effort to rally support for keeps efforts to repel russia's invasion. savanski and his wife were greeted at the airport by canadian prime minister justin true though. the unannounced trip is the landscapes 1st account of this sense. russia invaded ukraine last year. he's expected to address parliament in ottawa later today. the last address canadian parliament, virtually shortly after the war started. so ask is visit comes after he met with
1:02 pm
you as present, joe biden, and lawmakers in washington earlier on thursday. that meeting led to buying, announcing $325000000.00 in new military aid for ukraine. president followed the minister lensky did not have to wait long before he secured more us funding to repel russia's attacks and ukraine. soon after he set foot in the white house, us president joe biden announced a new military aid package and the delivery next week of the 1st abrams tanks, territory production. ukraine has been pushing hard for the m one abrams, and since washington promised them here in january hunger. i think united states of america and mr. president for the new defense package for ukraine, where the powerful package, thanks so much. and it has exactly what our soldiers needs know
1:03 pm
earlier, so lens, calais, to reset the 911 memorial at the pentagon and met us lawmakers at the capital. his visit comes at a time of growing divisions in congress over future funding for ukraine. with many republicans arguing the money would be better spent at home. but the 5 minute ministration is pledging on wavering support for keys and its fight against russia . are committed to help you can build a forest capable of ensuring new cranes, long term security, capable of deterring future threats against sovereignty, territorial integrity and freedom which are underway now. because that's what this is all about. the future, the future afraid of the american can never will never walk away from that. the new us package is a welcome boost for you french forces and air defense capability. as they baffled
1:04 pm
and russian troops in a slow moving counter offensive. wells lensky did not get all the weapons that he was hoping to get from president biden. our correspondent, nick connelly in tea, told us more you didn't get the tech comes long range missiles that ukraine's been asking for 4 months now. he also didn't get to address congress as he had requested to, but i think the expectation taken care of what actually pat height is never going to be as easy as last year. last times as key was in dc, that was in december of last year was just off to ukraine, had taken backs waves of territories from the russians, unexpectedly leased to go by the expectations of lots of western capital. so he was riding a wave of success then at this success is on the front lines this you have proved proven slow. i'm more difficult. so there's less kind of momentum that i think this was about. so about low being behind closed doors,
1:05 pm
asking for money. this most recent package was compared to the modest it was a routine transfer supplies, but they're asking, pushing for, for the $24000000000.00 worth of new trade over the next financial year. so i think that was crucial in all of this. i think there's long standing here in ukraine, the, as the elections drew closer and america, this is going to become more divisive in that by parts and support might be a little less fun today. now, canada, he's there to say, thank you another time kind of this country was a huge ukraine. desperado so supported the ukraine significantly during this war, obviously has less than the way of move supply to hand over. but i think that charge that ukraine's be great for, for some support that really stings, and that's something they're trying to work against now. that was the, the using economy in key. so let's take a look at the bigger picture regarding ukraine with ben hodges. he's the former commanding general of us army europe and now serves as a senior adviser to human rights. first, thanks for being with us. general. good to see you. now team is not getting the long range missile system, zaleski says, is troops so desperately need
1:06 pm
a poet. one of the cranes biggest backer, says it will not make any new weapons. pledges to keep our ukraine's allies dropping the ball. i think that the $54.00 nations that are supporting ukraine will continue to support ukraine, including poland. but i do think that our president has stopped short of doing what he needs to do, which is to say that he wants ukraine to when, if he says he wants to print when, then there's no more excuses about the availability of a tac owns or how long it takes to do certain things, we get serious and deliver these capabilities that are needed. and the president also has to speak to the american people as if they were adults and explain why this is in our interest. and then i think you'd see that supporting congress would remain very strong. what do you make of this path? we're seeing right now between keys and warsaw. poland is blocking ukraine's green
1:07 pm
exports and he was challenging. poland on that is, is the landscape over playing his hand in this dispute. so i think that the terry, what we're seeing is polish domestic politics. they have a huge election coming up here in the middle of october on the 15th of october. and so i think this is more about that than anything else. poland has done so much to help ukraine. ukraine knows that. so i think this will probably be resolved appropriately between ministers and heads of government and after the election, i think we'll be back to a much more appropriate sort of relationship general hodges, you know, that the us is, it's support for ukraine is absolutely essential. the republicans and us congress are threatening to block further aid for ukraine. is there anyone who can fill the gap? if president button can no longer deliver what you currently it's or so uh,
1:08 pm
yeah, just to be specific. its a handful of republicans that have outsides. amount of influence because speaker mccarthy owes his position, the speaker to this small handful of right wing extremists. there are more than a 120 republicans who have just signed a letter saying that they support continued aid for ukraine. so you're talking now with, with that plus all the democrats, 3 quarters of the congress still supports ukraine. but the president cannot assume that this will stay forever. he has his own big election coming up november next year. and so do all 435 members of the house and one 3rd of the senate as you know . so the president has to make the case to the american people about why this is to our best interest that you create a successful that your remain stable and secure. that affects american prosperity.
1:09 pm
if the united states, god forbid, if there is a trump administration that comes next and american support and involvement in europe weakens other countries will have to step up. because this is about stability and security in europe. whether or not the united states is there to help ensure it. now support for ukraine appears to be waning among some allies. there's a certain amount of fatigue that can be seen. could this end up forcing teeth to accept some sort of negotiated peace deal that it might not like? but that certainly would vladimir putin is hoping for. the kremlin knows that they have no other option. so mean they, they are losing this war. the ukraine has the initiative just a few hours ago, muscles were impacting in the russian navy base. and some estoppel, again said that's only going to get worse for the russian side. so their only hope
1:10 pm
is to drag this out. hope that we get tired and hope that donald trump is re elected as president. that's their only hope. so i think that there will be efforts you'll here. um, i think pressure on ukraine to, to go to some sort of negotiated settlement for the sake of peace. but anybody that has ever opened a history book knows that russia never lives up to any agreement they ever make ukrainians know they cannot trust. any negotiated settlement with russia were russia's left holding crimea, the decisive terrain of this war. and i think you know, this, this freeze fatigue i, i've heard it several times from others as well. not one german soldier, not one american soldier, not one british french polish soldier. is lost, has been killed or injured in this war, ukraine or the cranium. so the plan is doing the fighting, so the t got think actually is
1:11 pm
a poor choice of words for what we're talking about. if our elected officials talk to their populations as adults and explain why this is important, i think most people will continue to supported the former commanding general of us army europe, ben hodges, thank you so much. thank you. dear bye. it's now some other news headlines around the world today. the 1st shipments of green have left ukraine since russia reimpose the blockade in the black sea. the vessels departed. the port of $200.00 or more scanned are loaded with grain headed for african and asian markets. ukraine is testing a new shipping route after a rush, you pulled out of a deal allowing the safe passage of grain shipments. results and supreme court has ruled against a cutoff date to limit indigenous land claims. the country's powerful farm lobby has argued that indigenous people should not have rights to land. they did not live
1:12 pm
on in 1988 when brazil's constitution was inactive ruling will pay the way for more indigenous reservations in m. so a new study has found that there has been a sharp increase in fluoride extremes believes in germany. in the last 2 years, researchers of german university found that one and 12 adults in the country now has an extreme right wing the world view. recent political polls have put the far right populist alternative for germany party in 2nd place. national government demonstrators have taken to the streets of the armenian capital europe on for a 3rd day to protest against the government's handling of the crisis in the corner corner. buck demonstrators say the government has made too many concessions to as a by john and are demanding their prime minister, resign ethnic armenian separate to assume that they're going to car back region agreed to dismantle their forces on thursday, following

1:14 pm
a 3rd day of protests to a most office in minneapolis. we'd made preparations to host around $14000.00 families and on the, the new we didn't want to announce that to us. why not expect to include them so that most i'll be honest. in short term, it's because we think a means in the goal, and i cover about should leave in their homes costumer in the homeland, probably under conditions that ensure a dignified and fine and danger free life on with them by monday. or they may have been out at the moment. we believe that there is no direct threat to talk to people in the going on camera. back. the earlier protests in front of russia's embassy had also taken a edits peacekeeping forward come in. you have no business being here in a medium, but the only link between armenia and no gardener caught above the lodging cord or
1:15 pm
reportedly closed pushing you on and says that i'm going peace. negotiations should focus on the rights of ethnic armenians. but mistrust runs deep as the 1st day of peace dogs concluded many armenia. instead, there were still waiting for way out of state and cleave. dw is maria cut the mazda is covering the story from the armenian capital europe on. earlier i, we asked her about the latest news coming out of the corner of colorado. so we are hearing uh some uh reports uh from the board in a car box. and it seems, uh, the situation seems to have uh, cyber lies and its relatively cold. now obviously people are still lacking food. uh and uh, water. there was some reports that are from was there by johnny media, about the, the buck who is sending uh human tire and 8 and the cargo is not under way. however, we have not seen anything as of now if that's reached, uh um, not gotten
1:16 pm
a car box and it's a very dire situation there. the people are still in the shelters and thousands. uh, as i mentioned in the report, i already have a created to this. i can't uh, airports and people are just waiting for the local uh separate this uh to where it says it's a nonce for the stops. and yeah, very frightened and very terrified looking for i'm looking forward to the news on instructions. it's moving on to asia. several asian countries have been holding joint military exercises for the 1st time and mid heightened tensions with china. the association of south east asian nations known as ozzy on says it's drills are meant to increase disaster preparedness. we're taking place off the coast of indonesia, near the tuna islands. the exercises were supposed to take place in the south china sea, where there are competing territorial claims. china says it has sovereignty over
1:17 pm
most of the area, but the water border many as you and the countries that also have claimed the territory as their own. this is where of the nation. so joining forces for the 1st ever block exclusive naval exercise. it comes at a time of rising tensions as badging of a china, as claim to most of the south china sea. china is 9 dash line claim, and the saw china, sea health costs $10.00, stand off with countries like that now malaysia per night, and the philippines watching us loud on any. and what about on there that a very some one to go to us? that'd be me. and that is the global spotlight is on the south china sea due to its abundant natural resources. silas dudley's, how many nations to a 3rd territorial claims in the area by our visa monk, blame reliable that is not enough left of the the indian easiest prime age active in its dealings with these nations as to maintain a neutral stance that i give them a sync up and about. but while the exercises are entirely focused,
1:18 pm
a non combat activities, the drill is also being read by many as a cautious signal to china. initially planted the edge of assault china, c, indonesia relocated the exercise, often a tune, the islands to steer clear potential objections from beating regarding the disputed region. i think it's important to note that conducting exercises in the south china seas prohibited it is critical to maintain a sense of balance. expanding to doing so could be perceived as aligning with the united states in the past. and countries had health joint exercises, but the u. as in russia, this members only drilled as intended to demonstrate all the ends neutrality in the us, china conflict. well also showing unity against china. we can speak now to asia specialist, richard j. hey dario. and hey, john, just from manila. what's your, what sign is this joint military exercise sending to china?
1:19 pm
well, i mean this, it's a side, this were meant to signal growing willingness by solid ization countries to demonstrate their interoperability, their ability to work together as a collective and of course. so indonesia, as this year's truman off the association of thought is, asian nations has recognized that the regional body has come a bit short to put it mildly, the way it comes to dealing with 10 friends and married time. uh, you know, the problems within its own backyard. so this 1st ever all the and i would say the late that's 1st ever honestly an exercise. this was meant to push back against critics and those who have been questioning so called us in central ality. the problem though, is that what has turned out is not necessary to all ozzy and exercises that in fact, he exercises like live by exercises, were also emitted from these exercises. so it turns out that's quite tip it compared to what many were expecting to take place up at this point in time. now china claims 90 percent of the south china sea based on what's known as the 9 dash
1:20 pm
line. that line, of course, is a territorial demarcation line, the trying to recognize as tell us more about the significance of that line, or what i mean based on sign a so called 9 dash line and which now is effectively 10 dash line. you can find just release a new map or your does your uh word screaming. yeah. more than 85 percent of the sol transportation all the way to tie one. well, it essentially china is treating it's a jason borders as an expansion off it's territory. it's southern trying to call it, its blue, national soil, and that's completely unacceptable for a whole host of nations. especially those installed as a sharp philippines, as malaysia of you know, of vietnam who also have land features under control and d, or a but also an acceptable for external powers from united states to india and even european powers. we do not want a single country to dominate an international and water way through which trillions
1:21 pm
of dollars of trade products is true every year. so it's true that many countries have territorial disputes and martin plains, indeed area. but china is claiming more than 85 percent of the entire basing. and some of china is claims including claims to be sure to use their sources. and oil and gas resources is overlapping, even with countries like venetia, which technically they do not have a client installed, trying to see, but do have it claims in the so called north, soon to see how united would you say that as young states are when it comes to china is claims actually earlier this month, that was a bit of the install and they've been attended one of the plenary sessions talking about this issue. i mean, to put it mildly, i don't think they're still ozzie and 10 position. i mean, the 10 countries with in the us getting having a unified position on dealing with these issues, we have a few hours in countries like can body and law all sort,
1:22 pm
deeply dependent on trying to afford or economic viability. and the political lead suspicion because they've come body like strong on wednesday and any time you've worked deeply, deeply entrenched in, it's kind of a trying to lead economic order injury john. but you have also gone just like a flip. this brings us where to come from, which is a us treaty ally and he's expanding defense cooperation with the united states in order to push back, i guess, trying to sort of bunches of business in the area. and then the rest of the region is actually trying to just play the both sides. and that's why you very the why live in your reports. then you've denise, your emphasizes neutrality. my problem is that it's nice to say you're neutral, but you know, then neutrality is actually allowing china to defer to dominate bay area. that's not a very functional kind of neutrality. and i understand as in countries do not want to make a choice, but not making the choice is a choice in itself and is increasingly a dysfunctional kind of choice because i've been up to date, it's not the united states, which is threatening countries in the region when it comes to the sol trying to, to deal with but clearly is trying to. so now there's a lot of pressure. i'm not going to do something about. but this is the problem
1:23 pm
only melisha singapore and deny categories engineering at the end of this awesome drills. philippines is not attend combos yet, did not attend, and none of the exercises were close really to the sol genesee, nor did they involve read, demonstration of naval prowess. so this was very tough, it's so i think it comes short of what we need in spite of the world. richard, thank you very much for your analysis. that was richard head. dario and n manila or some sports news and your not goes, mine has been named coach of the germans men's soccer team. not rosemont is the former coach of buying munich. he has signed the contract until 2024 and will lead the team until the end of the european championship next summer. here in germany, the 36 year old replaces funds. the flick, who was sucked earlier in september, was brand tim juergen series, the deputy editor in chief of 11 find that's
1:24 pm
a german sports magazine that focuses on football. now, now go spawn was the golden boy of german coaching, but then he got fired at bion, how much will they have to prove? and so. busy in this job now this is a tough job. he's taking over now because the german football isn't the biggest depression since. yeah. the world was, i would say am, and we need to add, we'll see of the following out and into group stages and the work of the last 2 work ups. so it's, it's, it's a tough job is taking over now and, uh we, i'm not sure if he's the right guy in this, in this moment to be honest, his knuckles. but like i'm on a contract, only runs through next year. it's a short term deal. what does that tell us about how chaotic situation is for germany's national tea? the yeah, i think the,
1:25 pm
the secret behind is that these very young. he's 36 years old now and he wasn't contact was way out. i'm a bit before he like to say to you work for by munich and i think is, is chances to in the, in the club football and which is in kansas dynamic. and normally we expected him in the, in the club football. and now he's taking over the national team and i think it's just, it was his wish to do it for one year because it's a, it's a national, a story that it shoots chance on the one hand. but of the other hand, you will go to the, to the club football a after that. maybe when you went to the or your pin the championships, of course then it will be could be a long story. but on the other hand, i expect him to go back to the 12 to be a clap in the international club. for example, in your opinion,
1:26 pm
what you just said that you believe the german national team is in its biggest depression since the 2nd world war is huge problems. there is not goes mind the right man to fix the german teams problems with you say that the very good question because and i think everybody's dolling for, for the german media and also for, for the society would be at your clock because everyone likes and he said very sympathetic them and you know, he wouldn't be the right man. and in this situation the, on the other hand, he, a big problem was by munich and he was fired. and now we will see if, if he's able, in a very short time to, to, to, to, to put the team together to, to make the, the fat a stronger. right. and uh we, i'm not sure if he's, if, if it could be the right guy at this moment, we will see tim juergen is a sports journalist from the german sports magazine and find 11 friends. thank you
1:27 pm
1:28 pm
to the point. strong opinions, clear positions, international perspective being bulk endangered as to needs and thoughts of a better future. and they end up in crowded refugee comics instead on to the point of asking golden migration prices. what solutions do politicians have to the point next? on d, w are flying rivers created by the waterfalls,
1:29 pm
water particles into the year. the trees swimming out up to 1000 liters of water in a day source. the forest fires evaporating. large amounts of moisture get the answer in the invisible river that flows through this guy in 45 minutes on the w, the little guy. this is the 77 percent the platform for these issues picture, right? the, you know, or the side that will be a, not a great to catch and then you get to talk to applicants. population is really fast
