many reasons for that. first, the ukraine doesn't have the same naval capabilities as russia does. so what you crane is trying to do is degrade russia's black sea fleet capabilities. and specifically, there are 2 main aim smaller tree names for that matter. the use, the black sea fleet was used to fire clipper of missiles on odessa. so it would be obviously important for ukraine to, to reduce the risk of an attack on the support that is connected with the other reasoning for that. and the support is being used to explore the ukrainian brain and the green has seen some difficulties, especially was a, there was a pool and, and some other countries imposing upon a new premium. great. and it's important for you praying to sustain its economy, therefore, neutralizing, or at least reducing the capabilities of the black sea fleet. it wants to ensure

that it's vessels can get to their destination. and of course, it has some psychological effect as well, showing that, especially as the lensky is asking for a long range missiles from the united states, showing the capabilities of that ukranian armed forces to precisely strike the russians in crimea. despite the era defenses and the spies, the difficulty is that to creating an air forces having it was military analysts, marina moran. let's take a look now and some other news making headlines around the world. today. the french president followed him as a landscape sold kind of as carla meant that and justice will prevail as a country find some rushes information. it's been addressing lawmakers in ottawa, i'm speaking earlier, canadian prime minister justin to go pledged nearly half a $1000000000.00 and military aid for ukraine. german interior minister nancy phaser has told a newspaper that berlin is considering setting up short term border controls with

poland. and the check for public announcement came as opposition and peas called on the government to get a grip on what they say is uncontrolled, irregular migration within 14000 people have entered germany illegally by the border with pulling this here us senator robert menendez and his wife. have been indicted on bribery charges. federal prosecutor is accused them of accepting gold bars and hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash in exchange for the democratic senators influence the the couple denying the accusation. diamond falls years of investigation by the justice department, senator from italy's former president george and it probably condo, has died at the age of 98, fully tunnel, a former communist help steer italy through the country's debt price, and some 2011 became italy's 1st head of state to be elected to a 2nd term for the largely ceremonial post, but stepped down in 2015 due to old age one. yamma. china has pledge to work

more closely with syria as part of what it's calling a strategic partnership. the announcement came following talks between president changing thing and syrian leader of a shar, although side of the chinese city of hung, joe and a joint statement sign i'll call for the removal of sanctions imposed on serial over a civil war. which fridays armoire protests against the assault regime and the syrian town of the way to our demonstrators up inventing their anger of their worsening economic condition. marian gallagher is an expert on china politics of the university of michigan in the us. and i asked her whether 0 is outside god, what do you want it out of his trip to china to it? so i think it's too early to tell. i think he needs economic aid more than anything . but you know, this is an important trip for him. he hasn't been to china in 20 years, and the strategic partnership i think is pretty significant. what is this strategic partnership going to look like? because it is a buzz word in china, is that?

yeah, it's a buzzword in china. it's also a buzz word in the united states. the united states is talking about vietnam. china is talking about syria. so i think it's a little unclear of what it will actually mean in practice for syria. i mean, whether or not china wants to commit a lot of aid into syria. it remains unclear. syria is a little bit high risk for china. it's not a booming economy by any stretch and it needs a lot of reconstruction made due to the civil war. but again, the amount of this is about the symbolic moves that both united states and china are making around the world by showing that different countries are joining these, these different alliances. not, not full blown military alliances, but these different sort of teams that are competing to me yet. how does syria figure into china is wider, middle east strategy? or i think it's probably something that a china is doing to help the middle east in general, particularly saudi arabia and i ran after it. it's record of the piece spill in. in

march of this year, syria is an important country. it's been isolated due to the civil war and by bringing syria back into the full, not just in the middle east, but also with china will be really important. as a china has definitely taken a lead. now, in middle east of political relations, particularly these really difficult ones involving countries that have either been at war with each other or have been in a long civil war. it's, it's not necessarily easy for china to do this to. this is a very big move on the part of a china is presidents. you've been paying to really take a very different diplomatic profile than any other chinese leader since now. as china. extra, mary gallagher from the university of michigan speaking to me a little earlier. well, china is growing influence in asia has done a lot to bring countries closer together. even militarily, south, east asian countries are holding their 1st joint military exercises against

a background of height and tensions with beijing. the ozzy and drills are taking place off the coast of indonesia near the not to now islands, and the need to move them from a part of the south china sea, where there are overlapping territorial claims. china says it has sovereignty rights to most of the area, but the waters border many odds in countries, and they can test beijing's claims. this is where of the nation. so joining forces for the 1st ever block exclusive naval exercise, it comes at the time of rising tensions as badging of a china, as claim to most of the south china sea in china is 9 dash line claim. and the saw china is the house cost $10.00 standoff with countries like that non malaysia per night, and the philippines, launching us loud on any. and what about on there that a very some want to go to that is the global spotlight is on the search china. see, do, do it's a bundle of natural resources, silas dudley's, how many nations to

a sense of balance explaining to do so, could be perceived as aligning with the united states. in the past, i've been countries had health joint exercises with the u, as in fresh f. this members on the drill is intended to demonstrate all the ends neutrality in the us, china conflict. what also showing unity against china, or the julian not goes. one has been officially presented as the new coach of germany's men's national football team. the 36 year old former coach of alliances and byron munich has signed a contract until the end of the european championships here in germany next summer . he replaces henzy slick who was sacked this month. here's a look at our government's career, or he was the front is leak, is youngest of a coach of 28, a fresher faced duty and novels minute hoffman heim. he got the top job after working his way through the ranks of the crops use academy. and most of a to,
