the, the, this is needed, the news live it from berlin. tonight, the leaders of germany and france and poland say that they are united in preventing russia from winning. it's more on you, great off shelves to manual micron and donald tusk. emerging from talk to you in berlin today, promising more weapons and ceaseless backing for 2. at the same time saying they will not do anything to prompt escalation with la scale. also coming up tonight, russians are casting ballots and the countries presidential election. today, the outcome has not been dealt with those who would oppose by them improved in either barred from running, locked up in prison or dead. and israel rejecting

a mazda is a lease proposal for a lasting ceasefire and gaza. and then what it is on this group offering to return some hostages and exchange for palestinian prison. israel's prime minister, calling the proposal unrealistic and a new lifeline for the people of gaza taking shape the 1st ship since via a new maritime. a cory door has arrived off the coast of gaza. 200 tons of food are on hold. the break off is good to have you with us on this friday, the leaders of france, germany, and poet, and field, talk to your in berlin today to discuss the were in ukraine, german transfer or loc schultz, french president, emmanuel mac, ron and polish prime minister donald tusk agreed to provide the long,

distant artillery to help you frame, defend itself against russia. they are continuing to look for other ways to improve support to keep as it grapples with a shortage of military supplies and resources. but the 3 leaders also want to avoid what they say could be an escalation with moscow. or, well, chances are all actual denounced that weapons production in ukraine will be wrapped up with western health. the post prime minister darling says she had this to say. today we spoke with one voice and then about to the security of a continent and our countries, of course, so within the context of the war and ukraine. and we agree on with asserting the responsibility for this escalation. and we know who's aggress home and who is responsible for the situation and who

deserves to be helped by us. you gotta be a chief. political editor, mikaela tiffany. she was at the chancellor's office for the press conference today . here's more from her as well. the main takeaway is the unity that these 3 key nations within the european union have clearly made the top line of this gathering of the so called via triangle of fronts. poland in germany for the 1st time at this highest level in use. and clearly there's also mold and symbolic value to a front and germany announcing that there would now be amunition and potentially all the military equipment production on ukrainian sol, together with french and german companies. we know that one company at least, is already making throwing up plans a to become active. now this would potentially be a game changer, but it would also of course, present a new target for rush. so when it comes about,

we also had applied for a new alliance. they called it for a long ranging at ms. sauls. we expect to move concrete details on that as the us hostage and meeting of sponsors if you credit is happening at the rome stein base here in germany next week, but also with the upcoming e u summit, which includes a meeting of defense ministers. so the details clearly still being worked out what all sides have in common, that they don't would rush that to win and will increase the support for ukraine at the full front. and while those issues where they don't degree, simply not mentioned at this gathering today. so i'm going to go now from berlin to worse so enjoyed by the shell. there are no sky, he's the managing director of the think tank, the german marshall fund east, and he is in the fullest capital tonight. he's always good to have you with this. the, the german, french and polish leaders are making a very making a strong effort to stress unity when he comes to ukraine. are you convinced that

these there's more here than just optics? absolutely, this is the beginning of a key european corporation of a key pin format, really to facilitate a greater aid of you for ukraine, and frankly, to jumpstart european security and defense cooperation. this, this, this meeting comes at the end of a visit by prime minister to, to united states where to saw firsthand that at the moment the military age to ukraine from the united states is blocked and see what else needs to step up . we just have no other choice. and is that what we're seeing these 3 leaders, these 3 countries convey filled the void that is being created by american inaction . and this countries will spur the whole of you to

action. it's already happening. you has already agreed to finance the shells, 150 feet, 5 millimeters cells found by to check the government. it will be soon transferred to ukraine forces to push back on on the russian forces. but it's only a beginning uh, look at the fact is that we are in the critical moment of, of the war. if your brain doesn't get the right to weapons, we'll see a breakdown in the front in the worst case scenario. and this is, today's meeting is a beginning of a robust response from the you with the volume are trying to, with paul in germany, france deeding that way. so that's, that's the political message. that's the complete message coming out of this summer . i'm wondering what this looks like from where you are there in poland. you. you've got a french president who has even entertain the possibility of sending western

european troops to ukraine. and you've got a german chancellor who won't even talk about that. and he's against sending cruise missiles, ukraine. i mean, these 2 leaders going, you know, when they go to poland, one day, they're not bringing or then they're not reading from the same sheets or the and so the done so as a prime minister, a fall and invited the to the leaders to visit where sob is it, poland, him in the summer. so this meeting will impact take place. history is moving fast and your bride that we are not on the same page all of us, it just yet, but the commonalities are becoming greater. the language dead, for example, president my chrome is using right now describing russia as an, as an existential tried to europe is describing the words and ukraine as work that

affects all of us. you know, that's the language that does not a long time ago with the inconceivable coming from a french feed or something you would expect from central european leader. but now as using cost, saving just that. so we are moving in the right direction in a common direction and we trying to have some. ready pretty fast, because just re speaking up and, and histories playing out in the, in ukraine with russia's work there in the us. you know, he recently won the election. i'm wondering in your opinion, if he had not won the election, if we had a conservative government still in power, would we be having this conversation today? and i think that will be much harder. weimar triangle is exploring, experiencing entirely new chapter. if the previous government continue,

we would have a large, deep tension between worst. so in berlin, pensions that are now very quickly being replaced by productive relationships. so of course that's, that's changed is very, very much poland place in europe has also changed with the election of october 15th last year. menu would say that with the changing the election with a you look in democratic government, the center of gravity using tact 15 to the east central view of the you. and i think today's of i'm a triangle meeting showing just that it's a very interesting points on it. i think a lot of people in eastern europe would agree with you this or you show or not ski, with the german martial fund east. we appreciate your time and your analysis did. i think it's great to be with you. well,

is your opinion leaders value to continue to support team here in berlin, people in ukraine or confronting dangers every day. one of those risks is land by it's huge parts of the country are littered with land mines and other unexploded munitions. a swiss company is providing ukraine with the state of the art vehicles to help clear the as a swiss made mine sweep by is being tested by the ukrainian company. and they blown one of the launches grain produces in the country. it wants to clear the region around the city of mutual life as mines, so that green can be cultivated here again, up to 30 percent of the companies. phone land is strewn with unexploded ordnance really with what you currently a lot of land to i think also land to reach the need to do mining and to machine. so help us to, to do this process more quickly. this is how it works. the remote control

clearing machine breaks the landline into small pieces or explodes it. this footage is from as about john. the vehicle being used in the ukraine costs around 1000000 swiss francs over a 1000000 years. the green company maple on pays health. the other half is covered by funds from germany, swiss company, global clearance solutions. so g c s has its production facility and still cabinet and they constance, as the managing director explains the machine can conduct a range of clearance tasks. yeah, and again, as it went on to means, this is a mind clear which works with an open cage concept does. so it moves in a forward movement when the chisel starting to ground and hit a mine, and it says the pressure wave escapes through this open cage. it can efficiently clear land mines onto personnel mines on t type mines to

a depth of 30 centimeters much the machine such as minimal damage shot and then clear along the size of one and a half football fields a day. but the one in these metal detectives at the most common instruments used in mind, clarence, the manually controlled, uncovered ground, send to meet up by send to meet the to the switch. the mining machine by contrast is unmanned and remote controlled, making the work less dangerous. the machines less working with a good team and that's why for this moment we so that training increase the j. c. s a. our team 18 people are training for the for this moment to use them. naval on has been awarded a permit from the ukrainian government to use this with the mining machine, the green produce and also new ones to de mine its own fields. but to accept mind clearance contracts from on the thumbs, depending on how long the will last it could be

a long time project. for voters have begun casting balance in rushes presidential election with any real opposition to your either banned from running living and exiled, walked up in prison or dead. this has to be vladimir putin selection to lose. he looked set to win the votes. tonight, the question will he also look like a winner? we have this read, the problem must go slept, polling stations in the countries far eastern region of kind of chapter, opens the doors full names appear on the bottom paper. 3 of them, a barely known inside russia let to learn anywhere else. this, ma'am us 3 die election is really all about vladimir putin is need for more legitimacy on his long grip on power. some of the russians political of late have a very cost of votes, such as foreign minister said,

guy level of defense minister said guy, show you a while the results may be a full going conclusion. the selection does shawn, some lights on to the hopes of often overlooked ordinary russians from false long regions like come chapter adjusted it which is very important to participate now, especially when the country is in this situation, you definitely need to vote to the capital must go what do i expect, that everything will be fine? the demand i voted for will make our country better, and that we will only move forwards, not backwards. to places on the russian occupation such as done, it was trying to pretend to paying us pensions for tranquility that we now haven't done that everything as well to everywhere in between. such an inside barrier at one pulling station. yeah. could simon perform the ritual calling on the spirits to

help people make that choice? and well, that choice appears to have already been made. these elections act as a reminder that that is far more to russia than just not. it may appear 10. all right, i'm going to go down to the w jury. we should of he's in riga where he has been based ever since the russian authorities shut down the dummies. most scale bureau, your 8 is good to see you. i got a lot to talk about with you to know. first i want to ask you the why is voter in turn out so important to vladimir putin? i mean, we know that he can't lose the selection. but if food or turn out, were to look lower than expected or not, excited, fujen couldn't look like a loser. cut me. it's not letting me put and doesn't care about the election. it's health brand to know so that you will win the results of the election in a segers and percept processed and present. this is more important to not for put in but for the people around him for his advisors,

for the people in the presidential administration. because they've wants to show the criminal lead of it. they have done their job well and achieved a full 80 percent for him. according to media reports, this guy is this number is a goal. this is how many votes boot in the should to get and see at the end of the day. because i hardly believe that put in checks. he's popularity ratings every month based on the opinion polls. but once every 6 years at the election, he finds out the results of his policies and possibly also believes that this result is through at the higher dispute is the easy uh, it will be for polluting to push through these policies. he has already announced tax increases, presumably to find us as a whole, and many also see in russia and you wave of mobilization. so it sounds like you're, what you're describing is something like an election charade. it's not going to be fair. it's not going to be free and at the end of the day and pollutants, russia,

it doesn't matter as well. is it a plenty of indications that this election is indeed not without the let's say irregularities. what is this one report from saint peters book that a young woman has thrown and molotov cocktail, green paint was tipped into some ballot boxes in the other seat is to make the ballad papers illegal in belgrade of the boulder with you credit. and one of the polling stations i had to close as soon as open due to an air right after the electronic voting system apparently also collapsed for a while. but all of this is nothing compacts because the fact that that's proper election observation is no longer possible. obviously this year, for example, camera and money touring is no longer possible for election absorbers. and on the 1st day of voting, that reports that people have thrown them on top cocktail at a police station in st. petersburg. what more can you tell us about them as well

as how many reports about young awesome, are you able to guarantee that the attacks from ukraine, for example on bell go right. and more recently, apparently, also on cost. and now is that agent mostly certainly as sign of warning destabilizing measures, especially when you can see does have these attacks in recent days. and also today, at least in the recent, have been a bit carried out by the russians themselves by russian citizens fighting on the side of ukraine. these volunteer units come by to units that have different names, freedom from russia, a sub un battalion, and battalion and so on. and they all say clearly they are fighting against putting is their goal. they say is not that much liberation of ukraine, but as a full of the put in the resume, as they call it, by the way, putting has already commented on his those attacks today. earlier she said under

the meeting of the adoption security council in moscow, she was the show is their options would respond to the attacks with even greater unity where they will see in the next days how. what about uh, how we looked at and i want to ask you more of a personal question. um, our viewers will know that you have covered many um elections in russian. this is the 1st time that you can't actually be in the country to cover this. i mean, you can't, you know, pushing the truth because of why the mirror puts in what seems to be in your mind as this election gets underway to this election is the 1st time for 3 days. so and let us know, sorry to strive to do everything to rise. does he turn out to rise due to, to come as a main to mike, as many people as possible to come to the selection? as you mentioned, to the turn out is very important. support him if he is goal is 80 percent and to i,

i wouldn't say 80 percent is possible, but he still enjoys high people that are to in russia according to the last service . and um, yeah, and there is no, as a candidate allowed to be a deposit to participate in the opposition candidate allowed to participate in this election. so it would be a waiting for letting me put in for the next 6 years, more in russia, username, or set a reporting tonight from reagan, as always, your think is really prime minister. benjamin netanyahu has rejected a ceasefire proposal, put forward by him ox. these really by minister calling it on realistic and the proposal would have seen the release of women children, the elderly and sick hostages, taken by him loss in the october 7th terror attacks and exchange for palestinian prisoners as in yahoo. his office also said that he has approved plans for a military operation. in rossa in southern garza, we're some one and

a half 1000000 displays. palestinians are now sheltering police ship caring humanitarian aid for palestinians. threatened with famine has finally arrived on the coast of gosh, it's being offloaded. on a purpose built jedi. the vessel operated by spanish charity left cyprus 3 days ago towing a barge leading with 200 tons of food. the ship is the 1st to use a new maritime chord or to reach the territory. or you want to get more detail from the norwegian refugee council spokesperson shayna low. she joins me from jerusalem . it's good to have you with this. i mean, what are you hearing from your colleagues on the ground regarding the humanitarian situation in gosh, the situation continues to be desperate and, and growing more and more desperate the by day as, as not enough data is getting in and not enough aid is and in the end that is

getting in isn't reaching all the people who are in desperate need. the situation is particularly dire in northern gaza, which has been effectively cut off from southern gaza since october. now 5 months in to this war, we're, we're already hearing reports of, of people dying of malnutrition, starvation. we only anticipate that as, as a, a continues to be delayed, getting in and not enough need is reaching people in need that the numbers of, of people dying from starvation, dehydration, and preventable diseases that they are unable to find off because their bodies are too weak. will continue to grow and those figures couldn't even surpassed the 31000 palestinians killed as a result of direct hostilities. and this, this for a ship that's bringing in food. can you tell us tonight? and he will get that food? who's going to get the 1st meals as well. there's not

a lot of clarity in terms of, of who, how the distribution will actually work. it's still, i think it's unclear whether this, this jenny, that was created to, to, to offload the aid will work. and it's, and it's unclear to us who the world central kitchen is coordinating with in terms of, of distributions and also how would trucks, another essential material needed to have distributions will be able to access that part of gaza and, and conduct the distributions. and what do you say when we, we've done an attempt to deliver aid? now by water we've, we've had an air drops jordan's united states, for example of our these and an acceptable alternative to deliveries by land. as there is no alternatives to delivery by land. of course, any aid and during garza, by whatever means is essential at this point as we have people quite literally

starving to death. but we know that the most efficient cost effective and i feel proof way of distributing ease through is to bring that even in through the crossings of by land into gaza and then, and that, and then having those distributed by trucks that's there. hundreds and hundreds of trucks waiting outside of ease of gaza and, and on the junction side of the border just waiting to enter. and this is life saving aid that is, that is being essentially blocked from entry. no that, that there, that it's there. and that it's officiant and while we see these creative alternatives being proposed and executed, it's frustrating to see that the easiest way to get in is not being pursued by a bias roll top allied. and instead there was ordering to measures drastic measures like air drops, where we've seen people even be killed by at, by

a drops that failed and, and, and other complications. yeah. you know, you speak of why saving. and i'm wondering how life threatening is for people, palestinians in gaza to go towards these, these loads of food. i mean, there are, these people are hungry, they're desperate. and yet we've seen this past week. there been reports that people have been shot and killed by is really forces trying to do just that this has been a trends that we've seen over the last few weeks where desperate people seeking a life saving assistants are being shot and killed. it's not always clear who in fact the perpetrators are though in many of these incidents, if it has been a firm, is that it was israel. but it, but it's, i mean, it just shows how desperate the situation is that people are risking their lives and losing their lives, trying to get that legs needing assistance,

food that is desperately needed. and that needs to reach someone because most vulnerable people, children, the elderly women, people with disabilities who are, are desperate for, for assistance should hello, within a week genet, refugee council, joining us tonight from jerusalem. we appreciate your time and all that you're doing. thank. thank you. or, or it says re binder now of our top story. the leaders in germany, france and poland concluded talks on ukraine. the more against russia right here in berlin from chance on sholtes balance of increase weapons productions for keep frances emmanuel macro on. so the european security is that state and ukraine, and that the trio agreed not to prompt an escalation of the conflict with moscow and voters adding to the poles and russians presidential election. it's all but certain to extend vladimir from regions rule by 6 years. these correct, i'm going to be sent in silence independent media. you're watching the w two's.
