[000:00:00;00] the, this is dw news live from berlin, a test of proteins red lines. the u. k. wants us agreement to let you crane fire british may cruise missiles into russia. british prime minister akira stammer goes to the white house to make his case, to president joe biden. but there is no quick decision after moscow warrens that would mean war with nato. also coming up, rescuers raise to save people trapped by some of the worst ever flooding and nigeria. aid workers say the disaster is compounding and already existing food

shortage in the countries northeast. the marietta evans dean, welcome british prime minister akira steamer and do as president joe biden have held talks and washington on whether to allow ukraine to fire british made cruise missiles into russia is, comes as a criminal in wraps up threatening language over the use of western weapons by tease, britain's prime minister arrives at the white house for tea, talks on the ukraine war. tiers dimer is pressing us president joe biden to allow ukraine to use long range missiles on targets inside russia were biden's ears. vax would spark a major escalation with russia. still,

he reaffirmed his commitment to you, crane i want to thank you for, for the leadership of us from united states. as standing with you. tilting crane is a defense against versus russian clear for making for prevailing as for people to be trained, dormer is seeking a united strategy on ukraine from the west is really this great. all i is that special relationship this time to talk about the issues you have just 75. start in crossway ukraine where i think the next few. we use a mouse feed crucial, very for and we for to crane in this fight freedoms. ukraine has long been asking you to allies for permission to use weapons like these british storm shadow miss out on target. deep inside russia div says there crucial

for destroying russian war planes. used for launching guided light bombs toward ukraine. but at a un security council meeting, russia warren, that a red line would be crossed the $9007.00. but the concern that was, which is if the decision to lift restrictions is really taken, that will mean that from that moment to this is nato countries. are conducting direct war with russia, which is in this case, we will have to, as you understand, make relevant decisions with all the consequences that the western aggressors would incur. those up in little groups of those groups. no announcement on the missiles was made during the stormers trip to the white house as well that with biden's term drawn to a close and winter approaching on the battlefield. britain and ukraine are hoping

for decisive action. earlier i spoke to military analysts, maureen, in maryland for the worst of these departments at king college, london. and i asked her why western countries have been resisting calls from ukraine to ease restrictions on longer range. weapons this long wait. what we have to understand is that there are practical implications in terms of the inventories of the missiles that ukraine has that this disposal such as storm shadow slash colt, as well as add accounts. and those inventories are limited in order to make a difference, to queen would need quite a lot of those missiles and this specifically, scalp and storm shadow are quite expensive. and the 2nd issue was, this, is that, that enables me to providing the targeting data more specifically it's american navigational data that would be used. this is why is that you k is asking that you asked for permission to employ, store storm shadow for long range strikes and russian territory. and obviously

there are also political considerations in terms of potential escalation, as one a u. k. diplomatic. put it if put in house, drawn all these red lines and he hasn't done anything about, it doesn't mean that he will not do it now. so we shouldn't push him. so there is a sense that so it's going to make matters worse in terms of the war in ukraine and for broder geo political landscape. this is perhaps why german chancellor shoulds sad that russia should be attending peace a summit in november and that we should rekindle a diplomatic solution to the war. while you mentioned these thrusts from moscow and we've been hearing the president's 11 ski urging his western allies just to ignore these so called red lines as russia has been saying, what are the,

the real risks and benefits of adopting this kind of strategy to hey, and then move them and in terms of risk. so of course, um there was a lot of talk about the rush of potentially using a tactical nuclear weapon specifically on ukranian territory. but some even believes that russian might go as far as use it. and one of your work in capitals, however, is there are other options. so it's not black and white in terms of what russia could do as a response. aside from a heavy military response targeting ukrainian cities. it's also acting globally in terms of, um, sharing important military technologies was actors that are hostile to the west and specifically to need to. and that includes countries like run north korea, but also group psych funds are allowed to tease in human for complicating the situation in the red sea. could include potentially have mazda and high school life as well. so there are a lot of factors who russia could support,

as well as acting c economically restricting the export of enriched uranium, which would affect us specifically as the united states. the companies which have a current contracts with russia and in the informational spectrum was the upcoming elections in the united states. so there might be interference as well as we have seen in the past. so there are quite a lot of tools that russia can and probably will use that was military analysts. marina marilyn from the worst studies department at kings college one turning now to some other news. and nigeria is grappling with devastating flooding several days after a damn collapse. emergency crews are still struggling to reach people trapped by the flood waters. authorities say at least 30 have been killed by that death total is expected to rise as the search and rescue missions continue. a 1000000 people

by the answers dentist says so many different challenges. if you could just summarize, maybe 3 things of the 9 yearian governments needs to do. and also what the international community could do to help, what would those things be? so me, it's just the games that brought your leaves and jump out those west part on the water. because at some point to what the level is so high that this people have described to reach. and i think there is the 1st step needs to be taken to be done to get them out of it. the 2nd is the shelter for those will have lost everything the to use the life safety aspects for water and sanitation. so kids, i'm bring couple of the water, the brand to everything that can have someone give me definitely get back. okay. all right,
