extremely difficult, alexander ski was at the eastern front for the 1st time since taking come on russia . he says, has a man power advantage that ukraine says its forces have struck a powerful blow against the russians at sea. sinking another russian wolf, it keeps, says the vessel was destroyed the occupied crime in peninsula i'm on youtube has mckinnon in belin. and this is the day the great news have been able to inflict the heavy losses on the rest of the back seat, please. but we've seen some video which they say shows these naval drones attacking this big landing ship. i suggest you rely on the statements of our military colleagues. i cannot say anything about this. it's definitely a reminder that basically nowhere in the rest of part walters of ukraine is safe

for the russians. right now, this is a great that she was a great week for you. great. also coming up donald trump's comments on a so read nights talk about a european nuclear weapon. no, don't. we don't. she would need to will always be there. autonomy means having your own destiny in your own homage. we can't depend on the us selections every 4 years . how many kids welcome to the show, ukraine's new army chief has paid his 1st visit to the front lines since taken come on last week. while it's on the sofa ski painted a bleak, a picture of the miller treat situation than his predecessor. he describes the situation on the eastern front as extremely difficult, and he said russian forces were increasing operations and had a numerical advantage in troops. meanwhile, ukraine says it has destroyed another russian bullshit in the black sea. the

military, it says the vessel was destroyed of the crimean peninsula, which moscow illegally annexed 10 years ago. he says naval thrones sang the seas, a queen across the lodge landing ship, and ukrainian territorial war says it is the 2nd time in 2 weeks that ukrainian forces claimed to have sunk a russian ship in the black sea dw, isn't it commonly as in k, even has more details from the ukrainian or pharmacies. but we've seen the video, which they say shows these naval drones attacking this big landing ship of the coast of crimea. as you mentioned, that it wasn't important was kind of the south coast of the crime in peninsula. we also know this is a ship that had already been damaged back in the early phase of the war when it had been in the rest of quite port of that of down at that time. it had survived unlike another ship that was input next to it. had been rebuilt, had been made, see where the against that now. so you may no longer possible. we understand some

basic reading sources that a, basically a launch, whole schedule that's left side and that has led to it's taking on water and being beyond recovery. as for the rest of operation, we don't have any details. now, if those russian sailors have been in factories from that shape or not. but it's definitely a reminder that basically nowhere in the rest of the fight which is of ukraine is safe for the russians. right. now we've had more than 10 ships destroyed and many more damage, and we're really seeing the pressure that they don't use alexandra phenomena off the nato. 6th street generally, and stoughton bug about the destruction of the russian warship, decree and armed forces. so today that they destroyed a large russian ship, i guess you kind of comment on that, but could you tell us how significant to lexi complain of the ukrainians is especially when we consider that there are intelligent services. for instance, the region one saying that the russians now have the upper hand on the battle field

. thank you. the dual credit is i've been able to inflict a heavy losses on the rough and black sea fleets. they have actually been able to push the black sea feet away from the western part of the black sea. and this is a great the to me, it's a great week, 340 cravens and the fact that i've been able to push away the russian black sea fleet and open the course or so then our able to export great. and then they'll do come on with this, the world market. a few believe this was possible just a few months ago, but not actually the export of rain from ukraine takes space even with alternate agreement with russia a. so this shows to the skills some of the competence of the ukranian armed forces . this is 1st and foremost a result of what they do, their ingenuity, their, their, their, their skills, their, their, their, their bravery of their training on forces. but of course help and support from a nature on laws is also important. i think it goes to them and sets up. of course,

what's going on goes on there, knowing that from farm is important on the we are all disappointed that the offense who got posted on smart ukraine and forces no stairs didn't achieve more appropriate advances at the same time, we should not forget that even though the from fine husband changed the ukrainians, had been able to, to actually attract a behind the russian lines, both on line a destroying the come on the control arms to oppose unimportant. and also the russian capabilities, including aircraft, but also a continue to destroy the parts of the russian vaccine. feet on the on. this just shows the skills of the depending on forces, the nature of this x ray general and stilton class. now we're going to cross over

to mike moss and he's the military on the list from the bowl studies department at kings college london. hi mike. good to see you. i'm tell us how big a blue high is confirmed with the sinking of this warship to be to russians military nice in the black sea. but i think in and of itself, the thinking of a single, i mean this is a landing cost is not a huge deal, but when you add it up to all the other ships they've been sunk. i mean, this is ship this month, the finance and sunk and the black sea. and this thompson is starting to hit, how insulting to close the russians to the appropriate needs, the nato secretary general. we just heard from him, diane stoughton bug. he's cold is a great victory, the ukraine. so why is this a crucial achievement for keith? well, this is the ukraine in navy that was almost completely captured by the russians in

the 2014 taking of this, the best of all poets in crimea. and what they've managed to do since then is sick, $17000.00 tons of russian shipping. that's a 150 percent more than the russians have managed to think of ukrainian shipping. so for a country effectively without the navy to be able to sing a 150 percent more of the shipping of the one of the largest navies in the world really is an extraordinary achievement. so if a pay is in crane is fine to get an easy, it's a put rougher on the black foot in the black sea than it is on, on dry land. why is that? what are the reasons behind that? yeah, well i think that, i mean, obviously the, the ukrainian defensive last year didn't really cheap what it was meant to achieve . and that's because the russians had some time to be able to dig in. so all along the front they dug in strong fortifications on the time dishes, mine fields,

and the reality is it's easier to defend them to attack. and so that is why we see that the war line stalemated. but of course, in the amount of time domain, as we seem to this attack, just a few drones and you can have quite a large effect on ships that much harder to defend. and how do you expect russia to respond to this? well, i actually don't think that the as much they can do in the maritime domain. i mean, previously ships have been sunk and they haven't done very much. usually what russia does, when you train manages a spectacular like this is they just do a slightly larger air raids over civilian targets. so i the key or i the hockey and not say way of making the point. and so why would expect tonight's either the next week or so we'll see slightly heavy at the bottom of civilian areas by the russians. okay, of the korean army has

a new commander in chief. he's cooled. the situation on the front lines, extremely complex and stressful. lisa and russian troops are increasing their efforts. they've got more man power. so how crucial and speaking about u. s. military aid. now, how crucial is us aid for ukraine's counter offensive us? so obviously we seen the, the freezing or the drawing down of us i, there is still all the aid going in from european countries. the u. k. recently signed those 2 and a half 1000000000 pounds of 8 over the next year. we'll say, i said there is other right, but the reality is, and this is true within nato, it has been true for decades that the us is the indispensable partner and part of that psychological. so when you are paying country, see the us putting its hand in its pocket or delivering alternately, they feel yes, actually we can do this because we backed up by the americans. and then part of it

is just roll industrial power. the us is able to turn out things like artillery shells, and antioch of missiles as a much greater rate than you are paying countries. so it is very important. mike will have to leave at that. i think so much. so it's mike moss and military analysts from kings police loankey remarks by us presidential hopeful donald trump last week has been widely interpreted as pushing the future of the nato alliance in doubt. and that's leaving america's european pont as mulling a world without guaranteed backup from the world's biggest nuclear power, is also recognized at the base in germany and beyond about rethinking europe's nuclear setup. this, this is a test of nato's nuclear deterrent fighter jet, seen here trading to defend europe against threats from russia or other foreign powers. but there may soon be

a new test from within. as one presidential hopeful questions us commitment to the western military alliance. no, i would not protect you in fact, which countries worldwide agreeing to nuclear non proliferation decades ago. much of europe has long comforted on an american nuclear shield. the u. s. is over $5000.00 nuclear bombs in total. all the numbers are classified. experts widely agree around 100 of them are deployed on european nature territory in belgium, benevolence, germany, western turkey, and a to a fellow nato members. fronts, and the u. k. also have their own national nuclear arsenals. fronts has in the past suggested more continental cooperation. no, don't know what she would need to, will always be there. autonomy means having your own destiny and your own homage may count, depend on the us elections every 4 years. how many can bought to there's no solid offer of alternative security guarantees. any you're quite new cleared to tyrants would require a whole rosters, negotiations, new treaties and an infrastructure revolution. despite the calls from some germany

you, parliamentarians, full of the government says it's a non starter 5 yet essence. and i'm like, honestly for jim hi, we have the american protective shield and we shouldn't questionnaire callously on all own initiatives. the new to the debate is really the last thing we need at the moment. it's an escalation in the discussion. we don't need to do any eastern flag, nato nations nearest russia are calling on other european countries to be felt. no nuclear capabilities, like their armies and munitions supplies. i think what the, the presidential candidate in america says is also something to maybe wake up. but some of the allies who haven't done that much for non nuclear jewels across you are, will continue. and so will the debate and some more of that spring in kansas. go stat from the institute for peace research and security policy at the university of

humbug. welcome to the w at the debates about what happens to europe without a us nuclear shield emerge during the trump presidency. donald trump's recent remarks have recognizes that debate. can i ask you? is there an answer to that question? i mean, the thing is, you know, i don't want to diminish the importance of what trump said there, but i think right, goes to like a point where it's useful to take a deep breath and not come to conclusions too easily, especially since we're talking about nuclear weapons, and that's the case and the answer is we're probably not to be easy and there are different suggestions out there and i think the rate for the very end feasibility and pull that to called viability. so that'd be probably like just try to break that down a little bit and run through the different options or proposals that we actually see out there. so 1st, there are those who think, well, you know, if the, like the new could guarantee that we've seen by the best for and no longer holes,

we need thank you repeat replacement. so suggestions in the you context range from the new development it's own or smell to phones, in the case, substantially bolstering there or similar, some whole kind of like year type the year p mazing launch. for 18. personally, i'm highly critical of the feasibility of these 2 sections. first of all, because i mean you is not covered payments for making foreign policy decisions easily. and i can hardly see how they kind of stuff as a chain of come on for presumably, multi natural nuclear force. and then there's, of course, the issue that the nuclear landscape in europe is quite diverse with, you know, some new products and states, some hosting states, some states not even seeing the kinds of terms as feasible as legitimate a way to secure or the security. so like really, netscape is diverse and it's probably not very easy to establish these type of your machine. you context based on service and wanted to come, i'll ask you,

can i just interrupt to the for a 2nd because we heard statements today from the german government. i'm the nato secretary general, essentially suggesting this as a pseudo debate. there's no question of nato not working, you know, so, so is that the end of the mass? so no, no, need some more discussion. the of the discussions will certainly go on. right. i think of course, i mean the, the issue is critical and i think people, most of the color, especially since, you know, and these g u options are one thing. the other options are, of course, also discussed within nato. so right, because i mean it's not like nature will disappear immediately if truck comes to office, right. so there are also some people who say, well, i mean maybe we just need to focus on a complementary of all the french and the sometimes british arsenal with, in nature. and i mean, since these proposals still remain vague and it's not quite clear,

how are the european partners could provide input there to make this a truly european efforts? we don't really know how best will devote. but sometimes i feel like publications think there's more in the current spend actually is because of the french offer that has recently been referred to a lot that's actually quite limited. if we look to into detail, what do you say to the argument that russia was free? to attack q crying because teas gave up its nuclear weapons in 1994. and we'd obviously have to presume that new crane would've been able to maintain a nuclear deterrent for all of this time. i mean, to be honest, i think it's a smart argument. austin made in that phase, and that is due to the fact that i mean like, it assumes that you claim could have easily retained a subject warheads and the results on his territory off of the dissolution of the soviet union. but received for a number of technical reasons that they wouldn't have been able to do so. and also

politically they would have paid international isolation like in a very great extent if they actually have attempted to keep these levels. so i think the more interesting question is really what lessons do we learn about the use of nuclear weapons as a political tool from the word. right? and here, of course, our answer is little bit more, you know, we, we must really die deep. and there we see, well, i mean, a new count, our state has attacked in long term states and it shows that aggression was new preference. and that is something that should give us pause and that is also relevant to this current your to turn debate, because if our answer is really ok, now that we have a more aggressive russia, and now that we have a potential weakening of us nuclear guarantees and our answer is, well, we'll advocate for acquiring our own nuclear weapons, or we'll rely more on nuclear weapons in the european context. that sounds very concerning message to other states, and i wish that sample of cushions are actually proposing that far beyond europe.

and actually also thought about the global implications when we talk about the value of the mental operation regime, which is obviously put into question if you're decided to actually nuclear arise. so, so what does the rest of the tackling you cry and tell us about the international nuclear nonproliferation framework? and i mean, to what extent does, does nuclear to tyrants actually look? i mean, it tells us that if you are a nuclear weapon states, you can use these on eco mode to refresh obligation. so we have and that, i mean is good that we have a lot of fresh obligations, right? but it shows you that before it was best can use that for well as veterans activities that we probably won't approve all. and that's of course watched by other states. and if we say, well, the terms probably works, right. and on a basic level, i also believe that it does work, but it also shows to these other states that it's probably like

a quiet environment and useful tool. so really i can just reiterate, if we now say, well let's pursue the power of legislation regardless of the legal law which has caused. we shouldn't be surprised that strategy in the long term backfires on us consist that staff from the instance use a piece for such and security policy at the university of honda francisco set. thanks so much for your time today. thank you. israel is on the growing pressure to delay its attack on the city of rough and southern gaza, with people in russell already course off in the slicing. a top un official has wound a full scale offensive could quote lead to a slow. so israel says it's move into rafa is positive, it's military campaign to eliminate from us of to its terrorist attacks on october, the 7th and more than a 1000000 people have taken shelter in the city on the egyptian border and

conditions that otto in a correspondent has been take talking to those seeking refuge, the head of a likely escalation in the war between hamas in his own. okay. them of savvy is what about what it could mean for the city of ruffled isabel is preparing to launch a full scale round defensive hill. a maya, it's means i'll come and his family have goofy again. this time to central garza of the living and distant for 40 days. but this epic, i know i started to unpack the tent. as you can see, we are heading to the central region, which because it's not safe here in raw fight. all the important thing is that for many days, the israeli army has been threatening to enter. rafa. we want to go to the central region hoping that some of it is left, even though it's not safe, their safety is in gods hands. i'm on my luck.

is id is on the rise for more than a 1000000 displays. people who go many families have been forced to move the tents from alpha to other places in search of safety. somewhere also left shaking is very strikes then let the 3 of 2 hostages inside the house at the city shall border pg come on. we were in rough at tal also tom. they were bombing next to it and many people died. so we thought it would be better to go to the c side. otherwise, where can we go to israel? who is below is, is where do we go with israel suites? rafa? where do we go? give us any place that we are asking the home us government or the human beings in charge of the gaza strip to come to us and give us a solution and provide us with shelter. we are here, of course, i'm not going away. as the war continues to disrupt the lives of people like

them and his family, those leaving at alpha hold, this latest displacement will be the last one and the piece follow soon. indonesia is controversial defense. minnesota is on close to become it's new president unofficial early results put for both of them so ahead of his main rivals with moving off the boat. indonesia is so called festival of democracy wrapped up without major incident. but there were challenges in jakarta, posters delivered ballot boxes through knee, deep flood waters. and the sprawling list of candidates caused some voters, major headaches. well, this election really confuses me. none of the candidates visions, admissions are interesting. why not? everything is just normal to have the former general trouble was to be unto says he

wants to maintain indonesia successful course, the quarter century after the end of the brutal so hard to dictatorship. the country's economy is growing. and ambitious infrastructure projects are underway. now results from early unofficial counts suggest pro is likely to become the next president. some have criticized his ties to the dark days of dictatorship. but others to focus on a brighter future the, it's called democracy. people have the right to choose. they say it's a political dynasty and so on, but it's the people who vote democracy is in the hands of the people. most of us think all there is no problem if the nation is getting better. so why not? indonesians will have to wait until next month before the presidential race and the thousands of others across the country are official. so what would a victory, so pro, so be on. so mean for indonesia,

we put that question to our correspond that, that gave him access to the subject has been the defense minister here in indonesia and he stands for upholding the legacy of president. joke will be total to be total is usually popular in this country. he has initiated a number off of a far reaching reforms, for instance, uh, starting the production or for electric vehicles in this country and moving the capital to another. i loved to go away from this huge island of job off and all these projects are still in the making and probable says he wants to continue this heritage. in fact i, i had the chance to talk to him on the competing trail and he said, a pretty bridging the gap between the poor and the rich and this huge nation of indonesia is something he wants to achieve. why in, in acting adults policies of trick over now, here's the question for you. have you ever had your heart broken?

well on this valentine's day spent a thoughts for women and peruse capital, lima who has suffered the ultimate romantic betrayal. when she spotted a human sized teddy bus serenading her from the street and that's for lee. she rushed down to greet him only to find out he was a police officer heavy, then promptly arrested her. but you don't have to feel too sorry for that, because according to the police, the woman had been dealing drugs. they say they found moving a 1000 bags of cocaine paste in a pump. and that is the show for today from the intel i have seen here on the day. thanks so much for spending the cost of your day with the or the

rug. the environment. trends, technologies come is digitalization tops new markets, new media. the world is accelerating. seize the opportunity to try new things. take flights with the the we use business magazine made in germany next on d, w rushes will or the question on ukraine has raged for 2 years. 2 years of

people being separated from the families and have some defend the country on the funds while others are trying to start over in a foreign country. living either in constant danger, home sickness and then so essentially focus on here in 60 minutes on the how many platforms can you handle single tenuously without having the feeling that it's just too much you might see me how much can we do simultaneously a multi tasking diesel modern message, because if we do too much,

we get it all wrong. we mess things up, risking brain damage. so let's stop this self sabotage, humans and multitasking watch. now on youtube, v. w documentary, the default samsung party, rather than taking cold thousands of meters below ground. there's structural change going on in the cold made the valley rates. but now fossil fuels are on their way out. the former coal region has transformed and is being used in a completely different way you start up to taking over this also in this week show the energy transition. new technology is to help the climates, the solar industry. there's competition.
