president and the u. k. prime minister reportedly considering lifting restrictions on how and where ukraine uses western supplied long range missiles in russia. russian president vladimir putin has already warned the west if you give the ukraine the green light, your cross a red line. neither will be at war with russia. the risk is real, but we've heard this threat before the limits on ukraine. they've always remained in place changing that could change everything. i'm pretty golf and berlin. this is the day. the get, keep in most of the war must become much hard for russia by string of the country that is defending itself can also strike targets on the aggressive side. this, of course, significantly changes the very essence, the very nature of the conflict. we will adjust full adapt as necessary,

including with regard to the means that are at your transportation disposal, bus stop promotions. we support the authorization of loan grange drugs on russian military facilities without restrictions. this will mean that nato countries, united states and european countries, are fighting against russia. also coming up, the dutch government is expected to declare a national asylum crisis. imposing severe limits on migration. is this move necessary? is it even legal? so yeah, makes it needs the thing and not the cabinet, but there's a different political reality now. i won't be pushed aside. i'm going for the strictest asylum policy ever to or he was watching on p b as in the united states. and to all of you around the world, welcome, we begin the day with russia's invasion of ukraine and one president set to possibly. busy another president's bluff since the start of the war in ukraine,

russia has warned the west and not to overstep and its efforts to arm you. great. so far the united states has delivered weapons, but with clear limits on how they can be used inside russia. hooton's promise of a wider war has remained the risk that biden has been unwilling to take with his time in office winding down could president by the reassessing, his resolved by his meeting with you. k prime minister and storm are today in washington, and they are expected to announce an easing of restrictions on weapons used by ukraine. a move that president biden has repeatedly said could possibly start world war 3. you should have this decision is made, it will mean nothing less than the direct purchase, a patient of nato countries, the united states and european countries in the war and ukraine waiting. and this is their direct participation. and this, of course, significantly changes the very essence of the very nature of the conflict to them.

at the boot, this will mean that nature countries, united states and european countries, are fighting against russia. and if this is so, then bearing in mind the change and the very essence of this conflict, we will make appropriate decisions based on the threats that will be created for us to western nations, say that they're entitled under international wall to help a country under attack by an aggressor they said this many times and russian president, booting has offered his all to familiar rebuttal as well. here's a review and a remind this war began with red lines. yeah, no, this is a real threat and not just to our interest, but to the very existence of our state and its sovereignty. that this is the very red line that has been mentioned repeatedly. they have crossed

vladimir putin was speaking about ne, to potentially expanding into ukraine. invasion was his means of preventing this possibility. it stands the kremlin has repeatedly draw new red lines threatening the world with war. so hold red lines, a so called red lines. red line, is it the range me sell supplies to ukraine? the use of me cells outside the combat zone. and finally, attacks and rushes territory. the kremlin had warrant that these red lines should never be crossed. coaching understands the west and lead uh, could hope to be re elected if he or she brought that country into a wall with russia. so he understands that they, they don't want anything to avoid that. so usually is the concept to re lines the threats the token, ask it nation, and especially due to a threats as a way of intimidating, less than saying to them, you know, just be careful,

hold on because it could be, there's going to cause you problems. you frayne has been using these western have 16 fight to jeff in the war for about a months now. and ukraine has been striking russian military targets on the occupied crime in opinions. so for about a year. ukrainian forces have also led an incursion into russia's cost region for more than a month. with moscow being unable to ended, many red lines have been crossed, and russia has no delivered done. its threats of a strong response ukraine's president followed them as the landscape says, he believes that they don't exist. poor jim has already said so much blood that it gains the black drop of these blogs. ross's attempts to draw red lines simply do not work at a meeting with the secretary of state and british foreign minister in key. if this week, the landscape was once again pushing the west for something he believes will help

you crane. and this war, the ukraine has only been allowed to use west weapons to heat targets in these shaded area of rushes. brands course can belgrade regions, but to reach the military base is the dresser. use us to attack you. crane key needs the permission to track deeper into the russian territory. for example, using advanced attacks that would cross another red line, but some experts believe the west should need few further risk relation. we've seen the rush is red lines. are they going to be getting ready? there's no, there's no consequences for crossing them. there is no escalation, that's clear. but on the other hand, we also see that the west, the risk tolerance is level, the level of risk is prepared to accept exceptionally low begin. even this restriction might soon be lifted. according to media reports, it could be the west,

the response to runs, ballistic me sell deliveries to russia over more, i'm joined now by thomas graham. he served on the national security staff for us president george w bush. he is now a distinguished fellow at the council on foreign affairs. he specializes in russian foreign policy. his book getting russia writes, looked at the challenges and pitfalls of us russian relations and how to get it to a better place. mister graham drives me to 9 from new york. this dream is good to have you on the program. glad to hear you as president biden is expected to lift some if not all restrictions on weapons, long range missiles used by ukraine against russia. possibly as early as this evening. he has been firm in his refusal to give, keep the green light to attack deep inside russia. how did you explain this apparent biden change or pivot as well?

you know, in fact, this is really file is a pattern of scene throughout the administration. during the course of this war, they have put limits on with the weapon systems. they were going to provide ukraine, but eventually they provide them with their b abrams tanks. that's sixteen's, attack them missiles and so forth. so in many ways, a decision to use the restrictions on the use of these weapons for the following, that pattern is an indication that the administration feels more comfortable with how rush or respond and think that by providing this authorization that they aren't going across the red line and be to a devastating retaliation or escalation by my president. good. when i ask you about the situation right now, in course there are reports tonight, the russian forces have retaken parts of the course region. we can't confirm that, but if it is true, it will mark a, a military disaster for ukraine. i know you have written that occurs incursion was

a dangerous diversion. and a military now has told me today that this has been a complete waste and of resources and soldiers for ukraine. should this be a reason then for bite and to pause and perhaps leave things as is for the moment regarding weapons as well. i don't think that that would be a reason to be saying that they is regarding what the use of weapons for deep stripes and russia is not connected with the 1st incursion in any direct sense of the word. it really is a new finance effort to attack science in russia that are used for launching a military assault ariel salt on your brain in the eastern part of the brain. so uh, what do you find in one, i think was the by the administration. will authorize is the use of those weapons against fairfields, clearly defined military targets i, inside russia, i that have been used for basing strikes against you, right?

so let me put in the red line is long range missiles used by ukraine. deep inside russian. he says, if that were to take place it before nato into the what is it in nato's interest is in the interest in the united states to cross this red line to call his bluff as well. we, we've had this conversation about red lines for a long, long time. you know, we have crossed several lines without disastrous consequences. we don't know where the real red line is. all that said, we're going to go down this route. we need to be quite confident that we're prepared to deal with whatever response i put in my mind, come up with and they can do many, many different things. so focused much of the conversation in the west has been on the use of tactical weapons. i think that's, i'm likely, but certainly keep it arm proxies that could attack nato us assets also in the

world. you could launch a massive cyber attack against targets in europe or in the united states. something that he has refrain from doing up to this point. and of course, you'd also expand the campaign to sabotage against infrastructure in europe that we've seen evolve and develop over the past several months. what do you think is the most likely scenario? if we take, you know, nuclear weapons out of the equation, do you think it's arming proxies to watch, perhaps the terrorist attacks on native interest us interests around the world? or i think that is probably the most likely scenario at this point during this, and perhaps even in conjunction with your audience and using them as a conduit to a group sledge, the who is a much as blog or that might be inclined to attack american assets abroad, but i also think we ought to look at the seriously at the,

the use of cyber weapons and attacks against critical infrastructure in europe in the united states. one thing that we have to be worried about in the united states, in, in the mines, in the weeks ahead of you move towards a presidential election, is a cyber sought and tended to impact that compromise that election. and some want to . yeah, that brings me to my last question for you. i have to ask you about this, the us presidential election, harris or trump, if the re result leads to violence. if we see another january 6, right? for example, will this not be the perfect outcome for vladimir putin and his ukrainian implants? and certainly this is something that been present include would be quite happy with disruption in the united states. anything that tarnishes the image of the united states as a democratic power. anything that complicates its ability to develop and execute an effective policy is to his advantage. he looks for disruption. he will do what

he, he possibly can for cyber means. to encourage that type of disruption in the united states in the weeks at thomas green with the council and formulations, mr. grant, we appreciate you taking the time to talk with us this friday. we appreciate your valuable analysis. thank you bye to be with you. i which is the level that is where the newly elected nationalist government says that it will declare in a silent crisis as part of a major crackdown on migration. now the move wouldn't act. emergency powers to restrict the number of asylum seekers around 40000 arrived in the netherlands every year, which the government says is putting pressure on housing, health care, and education. opposition. political parties are questioning whether the move is necessary or even legal, of administered for asylum, and migration says that she wants the strictest asylum policy ever known to this issue. emergency law has been established democratically and i use the emergency

law to legally declare the asylum crisis. and that is motivated by supporting reasons, vs gone. the whole for example, you can then decide to stop issuing residents permits for an indefinite period. you can restrict family reunification and you can speed up asylum procedures on over rules. the, as you this, as you approach to do is going to have shanella for drawing me now is gordon. derek is a reporter and journalist for the guardian. and george me from the hague. gordon is good to have you with is tell us more about the government's plan and what it means for migration into another as well. the most of the said it was due today is business lifestyle. so what it says signalled in is a outline, costs and readings back in 2 months ago into the office, and it was paid to declare his own prices and it wants to do the 3 stages. so 1st, who wants to and use is a few months he was to buy the previous whole new applications for a site. um and then the district. uh,

this item uh is for that and they can do that with us. and because of all the ones that the ones i see also saw them crisis low, which, which as they say it would allow them to. uh, it's actually suspends. you are paying migration agreements because a lot of these things besides your pin level and then funny in the long sounds good brussels, i'm not sure. so you can opt out from when you're in regression with the quote is, does government is the by that you're being uh, i mean, so there is a lot of some talking to the day just being questioned by us as a, needless especially say this actually is not being both of those, so you can only add this on cartons in this way. if there is something like a natural disaster or is causing a search, assigning. so you just do a country and that's not the case. and none of the problems, and maybe it was by the administrative problems and the previous governments to full time, the silences. yeah. let me, i want to pick up on that. you know, if you're talking about and acting emergency powers, i mean that sounds like

a crisis. how bad then is the situation in the nether? it does seem suddenly um, acute problems in use. obviously the us and the system, it didn't cover the crown with system. we've seen those long as long as that sensor and then also the country i'm you calling regarding that was about to 2 years ago that the red cross declared that some of the conditions to be humane. so there's some new real problem back in the system and because that's the only way to get on top of this is because prices are they can bring that understanding those coming into the country down. they also want to make the conditions in the asylum seekers such as the protocol nation says it's not will serve and basic. and that's the idea of how to track people. sometimes a nose and a full class based. and there was a long search of districts. people being going, but i found the same ones with this funding, robins, asylum seekers who come so that one's the bring family members of a wisdom that apply for assignment that increase the numbers. so dr. was those discussions is caused by the binding cumulation of people in this on the system and

also by the fact that because there's no housing for so i don't think it's going to win the all process and those are the same response, be temporary combination and that's nice even more of the crowding across and the system that they say needs to be resolved. so it's a overcrowding and you have the other one's reached, then a tipping point where the the, the body politic. if you really is super saturated with asylum seekers in migrants and a pause is needed so that the country can absorb those who are already there. is that a realistic assessment of the situation as well as some of the gums argues and they say that so we know the, the, the routing asylum system is not on effects and things like the housing market education and health care. because all the services or staples are being on the other option, pardon will say this is actually a long term problem. this is this caused by

a minister introduce use. and if you actually create more information, places, underscore ration places full remedies. as long as you can be given it to stay in the country, then also the problem itself. the argument is a, this is based on this much of some numbers because the apartment is very careful today. let's give an actual number for when he said the price is much cost is off of $1200000.00 decides is no longer pricing. those are the look at this though, because uh i progresses and decided that basis. but he did say this is not by the most about the people in the country are experiencing problems inside the system and we need to address them. you can listen to them. let me just ask you is a correct on migration. what we're discussing here is this, what the, the dutch people deduction voters is what they want. lots of sammy migration was the number one issue, joined us in competing in november, and it was sudden as a result of that capital is lead me to the negro said the far right answering more

gratian politics became the lowest possible and so suddenly election results it does so in this, in the race, don't single, i think the, because old, they talked really for inspection of people wanted as long as it could be addressed . and were you looking at opinion polls, you see that cables is often still very strong and still the largest talking the most popular party in the netherlands and the other parties will look at options of to really go to some of them as well, where you also see a system there's volt, definitely for some of the measures that the economy industries company, there's been such as a for example, a saying that to refugees with the right information to come take longer priorities . a house which is very software given that there is a long waiting list for housing in general gordon. unfortunately we're out of time, but we certainly appreciate you taking the time to talk with us. we appreciate your reporting on this friday evening. thank you very much. and change to asylum i after sweet in germany, started imposing stricter migration routes to

w. brussels correspondent jack parents spoke to me earlier about how it all fits together. so yeah, i mean, it has been in the last few weeks, a real shift in a public statements from politicians. and also countries that have been traditionally concerned by human rights and sort of going from that side and protecting refugee rise of community taking a much, much harder line in germany. for instance, what we saw was off to the sewing and her attire. quizzes suspected to of being conducted by a failed asylum seeker, which then led to, here's the, assesses for the fall, right, and regional elections in germany. we so a lot. so as the german got a german taught tons of his government pushed to bring in these measures of closing all the voters and having voted chase against all 9 countries, the surviving germany in order to prevent people that are allowed to enter germany

from getting into the country, as you say, sweden is bringing in similar measures the danes as well. it's not entirely on the hood all, but it's a pretty clear sign that the sentiments into your opinion, all shifting a corresponding jack baird with the ladies from brussels tonight. jack is always thank you. the prosecutors here in germany say that they foiled a plot to kill soldiers in the southern state of bavaria. they've obtained a 27 year old man accused of planning an islamist attack. the suspect allegedly intended to use the chevy to carry out the attack against the members of the german military. or more on the story, i'm joined now by our political corresponded homes, bronze on what more can you tell us? slow this 27 year old person that was the rest of the syrian and apparently came to germany in over on 2016 as a refugee. and he has

a refugee status here in germany. and he was arrested off to having boats to miss charities and some there was some indications from people that know him, that he was planning to attack soldiers in this town of hole in bavaria, which has the german army base on the outskirts of tom. and so this information already reached the authorities on wednesday and he was arrested on thursday that acted very quickly. that's pretty much all we know. there is a speculation that there's an issue of his background to this. that hasn't been totally confirmed yet. the prosecutor has said that he does not have a criminal record, so he's not 9 to the police on that school. the reports, however, that he has been involved in some sort of drug situation and all those active still very much open back to the the authorities base their investigation on the assumption that he was planning. as long as the attack on german soldiers in this

town of holsen bavaria. and you know, you will know this, our viewers were know this. it seems like every few weeks we are hearing about terror attacks or foiled attacks here in germany. what's going on? yes, indeed, we've had an attack in the tunnel zoning and where us and as soon as the presumed is limits to attack a also a syrian use knives to kill 3 people and several others were injured. there was an attack on his riley on and is ready to conciliate a new nick carter recently. there were several other attack. so for the tech, so i think the protection is correct. that has been a lot of incidents that have happened. i think the 2 things that that caused this one is simply that they are more and especially younger people, according to experts who are being radicalized to, especially um finding is the most ideology and social media and somehow

motivated actually to take action. and the other aspect is that the authorities are much quicker to actually act at the moment because of a very intense discussion on migration on rigor, that migration into germany ends. the perception that many of these a tech has actually entered germany more or less illegally. and should not be here so, so it's positive because the authority is one to be seen to be acting and partly because there seems to be an actual increase in the number of of pub, titus. yeah. and on these political parties on the right, or are they using these attacks for political gain and are they being successful of that are yes indeed. they all especially the, all to ride alternative for germany and extreme is the right spring party here has been making significant gains and regional elections in recent weeks has become the strongest party into federal states and eastern and the eastern part of germany.

this policy was being driving this really intense and heated debates in germany at the bottom. and amongst other things the government has been discussing, i've having discussions in parliament this week about the stricter weapons. those especially restricting the use of knives. so the carrying of knives and public spaces. so yes indeed, it's part of a very intense political discussion here against the background of games made by other by extreme is driving policies in the, in the polls and, and actually elections. dw political correspondent, husband with the ladies tonight, and as always, thank or the day continues online, the weekend begins now have a good weekend. everyone will see you next week. the
