college london. and i asked her why western countries have been resisting calls from ukraine to ease restrictions on longer range weapons. what we have to understand is that there are practical implications in terms of the inventories of the missiles that ukraine has its 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 nato, providing the targeting data. more specifically, it's american navigational data that would be used. this is why is that u. k is asking the last for permission to employ store storm shadow for long range strikes and russian territory. and obviously there are also political considerations in terms of a potential escalation, as one

a u. k. diplomatic. put it if put in how strong 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 it's going to make matters worse in terms of the war in ukraine and for broder geopolitical landscape. this is perhaps why um german chancellor shoulds sad that russia should be attending a piece, a summit in november and that we should rekindle a diplomatic solution to the war. that was military analyst, many in the me wrong from the worst studies department of kings college london. or you're watching dw news coming to you from berlin or reminder now of our top story . obviously 1000000 people are believed to have been effective by devastating floods in northeastern 9 periods. it was caused by a dam,
