hoses up to the russian backs and ukraine's loved him is of that excuse taking part in those discussions more careful than ever to express his gratitude for europe in support. so what kind of ukraine and europe expects from the us in the future? and these donald trump extorting precious mineral well from the country. the us once helped to protect. i'm feel go invalid, and this is the day the europe faces a clear and present danger. and therefore, europe has to be able to protect itself to defend itself. i think we should underestimate our own power when it comes to europe. for me is the most important thing. be very frank, to re, i'm here and is great this way. i'm not alone. we feel it and would know it. thank

you so much for ever. seeing also on the day of the prize of eggs in the united states is still subject, they become so expensive. it's that for many people scrambling. the eggs are really important. we go through a lot of eggs. they're usually $46.00 a case and right now they're a $146.00. the case, the welcome to the day you're paying leaders hell their lights, a set of crises talks in brussels today as the block scrambles to adjust to the new world order. since donald trump return to the white house, top of the agenda, boosting defense spending and support for ukraine and it struggling against russian aggression. trump administration's decision to pause a to you cry, and it's the mom that you to do more for its own security. i've been fueling growing fear is that the us could abandon the transatlantic a lives today. you transform the army, chief of the current,

i'm boss of it to the u. k. issued a blunt warning we bought your most of us from washington is already trying to shift the burden of europe's security to european forces without the united states of america. but gives you such moves probably give rise to the assumption that nato may cease to exist in the near future or is it silver? but it is no longer just rush and its allies that are trying to destroy the world order from the united states of america. is actually destroying it completely off, but fortunately, when the kinds of automated savanski was back in brussels today to attend that emergency summit going into the tax commission president uh, sort of on the line underscore the urgency of stepping up and again, slides to firm support for keith, this is a watershed moment for 0 and to crane as part of our european family. it's also

water shaped moment for ukraine. europe faces a clear and present danger, and therefore, europe has to be able to protect itself to defend itself. as we have to put the ukraine in a position to protect itself and to push for loss thing and just peace, i want to thank all our european leaders festival and for such signal strong support. and these cons, so strong support from the wherever you know, the war and lots being during all this pure and last week you stay with us and of course, from all the brains from all our nation. big appreciation, well, where to sample that we are not alone. well, let's take a closer look at this with a popular claim can who was you trying to foreign minister from 2014 to 2019. welcome to dw and lots of world. busy sort of funds,

a line for ukraine that today's meeting in brussels. what concrete action would you like to see? come from this meeting? not just the good discussions we share happens there, but the samsung bridge goes beyond statements, deeds, to concrete plans. uh, samson. uh we share with the defined ukrainian security as part of a or b and security. but not samson. uh, reach is uh, just uh, not part of your 2nd the decision about uh you are a b and deterrence. and i believe, uh, as the fixture being uh, discussions about european new goods insurance may have been the problem, but still say i should have been in discussions about uh your b and the me style. uh and,

and defense to see if you have been discussions about the step in app uh with the we but i, m d and productions and fundamental they use this role to your shift. you rely on itself and type views that here you agree should be federal by the fewer. okay? not to somebody. that's cool. that's all way. just barely even in. that's why the shopping list. let's, let's, let's just start with reality. do you believe that you're well really follow through on its promises to defend itself? i mean, being here, craig, without the united states to me being very, will do this. yes i do. is there a reason for that? is that you are up or it doesn't appear in your as insurance. now it's pretty clear how damaging, how's donald trump's withdrawal of military and intelligence assistance from your

country? be yes, it's a fundamental choice. it's, but it's not an existing show. why? because uh, we are able to produce more here in new great, we uh, probably one of the best uh, in 0 to and drones on different technologies. uh includes an, a, uh follow drones. of course the weekend bridge use. uh, kind of better. so these, do me a lot f searching 562 f search or 5 lane. uh, but it's also by which you are a chew stamp e in freedom bills. was the last offer us assistance. all right, i'm, i'm in holly. do you believe the message? no, i'm the middle shrink assistance to i'm sorry. what about the intelligence assistance? do you believe it? but you're of has the intelligence capability to fill the whole left by the united states? yes, not now. but you're more or you are

a shift to do l o for a search capabilities, and it's doable. and it shouldn't be that for you. great. and for your i want you to listen to donald trump's special envoy to your country and russia general keith kellogg. he's talking about why the us that cut you off and will listen to him. and then i guess your reaction the best way i can describe it is sort of like heating them. you for the 2 by 4 across the nose. got their attention is 1st, it is significant obviously because of the, of the, of the, of the support that we give you a, with a 2 by 4 tablo clayton kit. now that washington has your complete attention. will ukraine do as washington tells you as well. it's about, do you agree and it's about addressing the aggression that goes. do you agree and

you should be in federal plot of any future negotiations. because the and you sell it off negotiations between the west coast on and moscow. we will not lead to any creditable solution. okay, that's a, that's a lie, right? that's a line that we have heard many times. i mean, it's a very reasonable line. you know nothing about us without us, but that is not the world we are living and that is not the wealth of donald trump and vladimir coating. so again, do you do as the, the united states at tells you or do you live without the military and intelligence assistance? you know, it's not the sort of, uh, polite, political like we approve the many people wrong, be in transit transferred to voice in law school, but also in washington. and for us, it's success span show and we will find that rate and strategy to go forward to us

is important for us. and we will try and we're as soon as you get us on board. but fundamentally, it's about us into, to buy with you, or if you find a way to go forward to go with that part of the, the cost of the return of us military assistance is likely to include this deal that didn't get signed last friday. so this is a deal that included that includes the us access to ukrainian minerals, a join us, the ukraine, the investment fund with ukraine contributing 50 percent of future revenue was made from the countries natural resources and critically no explicit us to secure c, a guarantees. so i won the popular, it's face donald trump extorting you cried sign the steel over here we remove your access to us military and intelligence assistance forever is expulsion.

i see these is 2 different tracks. the deal is important and it shouldn't be deal based on partnership and it shouldn't be about us engaging more in new grades. but military assistance and even the logistics and all kinds of staff a to use now is a sort of 0 or a chair to get a hand to gain momentum on negotiations because the us administration wants or sci fi as quickly as possible was to draw on uh, the main bible for responsibility on you agree and sure you are up and wants to hear more relations with the us. so why would love to mix up? was this deal and military assistance? nothing is over to us and you think that's what completely separate. so as a form, a foreign minister of ukraine, if loving me is events to ask for your opinions,

should i sign this field problem? what would you tell that i would, i would say yes, of course, because the is the, is the kind of deal we sure would breathing us the entry agree, but it shouldn't be a deal based as i said on partnership based on the idea of how we got the rate except we know that's not the case because the, the case seems to be that the us says very to just take you to leave it. you chose to leave it and they took that toys away. so you don't really have a choice in this. do you know j caliah would never have to resume gray and would like our broker gate. it should be a real deal between us as but this is the, i see know as a way to be effective was for green and for, for the united states. so time ukraine resist, american pressures to do

a deal with russia even on the terms, but favor russia. i mean, for us a success dash o m 0. and so we'll try to restrain our serenity on the number of areas in the territories. now that's one to say, i understand exec, substantial, but i, i'm, i'm trying to get to the reality of your situation. the united states is pushing for this to and can you resist that? excuse me, can you resist us pressure and continue to fight without that backing? oh, it's not about the resistance. if you're here for a way for you need your cell phones this way and you need to get the best conditions you can get from this race. and we understand that it's about us, given the rise in negotiations with the russians. so it's not about bucking

e long is that not the tall and it wouldn't be supported by the great in society. let's zoom out from what's happening in your country. we heard just before you came on from your countries on basses to britain, that the united states is completely destroying the world order is the wrong, the wrong order. and so we have the depth of the 2nd world war, that's what it exist anymore. it's like in this a most mattress movie you the free and the kind of gone for the butler allergy. and if you have a loop out is fundamentally wrong. i need us to ease destroy gainesville, figuration is that all see up and we all understand. so that in 10 years from now, and maybe i even agreed. yeah. right. we will leave when we have funds. i meant that a dear friend. well, what did you think when you saw last,

friday's explosive wife. how's meeting between your president and donald trump as well? i expected the motions, it's just me, it's not like that. but i probably would skip expected set your motions going around to, in the global, non public native. and, but what we saw is also a fundamental difference. installing a new one to 2 broad shaped into this and so base into this. and so if my mantle for as what is greek ago is substance whereas substance is exist and shown, remember thank you so much for joining us and outlining that for us. pablo time can form a ukrainian foreign minister. thanks m. o, as a you need is look to boost the military defense is the word in ukraine's already offended . use of established military doctrine. drones have become one of the defining weapons of the conflict. something ukrainian soldiers say native countries. i'm not

prepared to handle tanks. trenches and artillery. the early battles in russia's invasion of ukraine played out like scenes from the 2 world wars. but now, 3 years on another weapon has come to dominate the battlefield. drones. the symbol of abuse, it had not been for drones. everything would have been a lot worse. drones are the tool which allow us to give them a symmetrical response. when the enemy is larger or people stronger and doesn't value it, soldiers lives, and it's in, we have a task less leslie useful, but from unmanned aircraft to tiny home made models, drones. and now the most common with in, in the ended c, ukrainian officials estimate they are responsible for around 60 to 70 percent of

old casualties on the battlefield. cutting edge conventional weapons like germany's liquid to tank, have taken a back seat, or even sophisticated air defense systems like the us to provide high mazda battery . i'm making less of an impact as hundreds of drones swarm across both sides of the front line for ukrainian soldiers on the ground. the reason for this dramatic shift is simple. what they do is they'll just elementary mathematics. how much does a missile that shoots down a sure ahead drone costs? and how much does a hidden costs and be close to it? and how much does it cost to deploy a ship, a plane in an air defense system to fire at it? both ukraine and russia are now racing to expand the drone production and adapt to rapid innovations from the other side. something that ukrainian soldiers say the west and allies also need to learn is to show you i bought from what i see and here and available were not a single needle army that is ready to resist the cascade of drones,

not only as european allies look to ramp up to the defense spending. drones are already shaping how the was of the future will be for so well depends on the list and the mirror on some things cottage london gave us her assessment of nato's preparedness for drug and wolf at need of forces has not experienced the character of was that we're seeing now in ukraine. and so i think and the there will be a lot of lessons learned for me to, to adapt to these kinds of tactics and to use these drones for different purposes, for as long train munitions as well as a tactical, reconnaissance and so on. and so new doctrines will probably be written, production will be adjusted, and also training and education of the armed forces of respective countries will have to be adjusted to include this training to include,

ask the drones of the house. they will be used on the bottle too, but we should not forget that it's still critical to have that, that kind of logical edge so that you drones cannot be chummed and to have enough of them to make some sort of a difference on the operational level. because i'm still you see ukrainians. russians use drones, but they still use the water for delivery. so drones do not really serve as a substitute for more conventional weapons. donald trump is double down on the stated goal of unexplained greenland in this week's address to congress. he said, be, i'd be ivan would eventually be in american hands one way or the other over the elections on the island. fast approaching. many voters are taking the opportunity to reignite the debate of what really matters to them, which is independence from deadlock. america is donald trump reiterated his desire

to antics greenland to the us and typically contradictory style. we strongly support your right to determine your own future. and if you choose, we welcome you into the united states of america, but we need it really for international world security. and i think we're gonna get it one way or the other. we're going to get it the reason for the sudden interest in an enormous arctic island with just 57000 inhabitants. well there's, it's coveted strategic location. while under the ice ly valuable rear f metals vital for telecommunications as well as billions of barrels of on top of all denmark, illinois to island 300 years ago and still controls its forwarding and defense policies. greenland has been sent me a ton of us since 1917. i know elections next week. we'll see the question of filled greenland independence brought into sharp focus on the elections on the

march 11th. that going to be historical? it's very likely we've got to be a process at talking about independence, real independence for the 1st time, or between denmark and 3 months. so it's 10 months for administer set. the most important part of trump speech was to respect the island, the sovereignty. why to that they want to lose them. that ties to denmark, but i've no idea that the want to do that in order to, to, to become, you know, an integrated part of america. so we emphasizing what he did, the rights with sophia determination, i think, was the most important part of the speech. residents of the capital nuke gave a mixed reaction. this is one way or the other way, going to keep on dreaming. on the drone. got the village, so you've got the foods, you've got everything. i think she didn't keep audit related to relay tap.

no more than as homo. everything we did, we did have and he might like to add add a lot of taxes here, which would also increase the homeowners here. so it's really, we feel like it's a bad idea and we just more why don't be like a little. i land just more independent than anything else. meanwhile is greenland prepares to vote. the message from its incumbent prime minister is clear. we don't want to be americans, nor danes, which would be exit route on facebook. greenland is ours. prices in the united states of almost doubled in a year. the surging costs are partly due to an outbreak of bird flu. and so that to the coming of millions of chickens, the price hike of such and the central parts of the american diet is feeding into why the fee is of inflation. these leaving many consumers on restaurant owners

shell shocked. few foods there is crucial to the american breakfast as eggs, but the price is searched by more than 100 percent in the last 12 months. and that's left consumers and restaurant own is scrambling for solutions. eggs are really important. we go through a lot of eggs. they're usually $46.00 a case. and right now they're a $146.00. the case is eateries. impose the surcharge of $2.00 on own meals containing x. the employees say most customers have sold at the move for now, but for others it's yet another reminder that the cost of living in the us is going up. um, it was mixed. i mean, some people have been keeping up with sort of, you know, the shortage of eggs. and so they're not surprised and other people, you know,

are upset because food's really expensive. the shortage of eggs and this guy high prices have been caused largely by an outbreak of 80 in flu, which is fault, foam is to coal more than 160000000. but because it comes as us, consumers are starting to feel more pessimistic about the economy with inflation rising unexpectedly to 3 percent in january 2025. there were also concerns that us president donald trump's trade target will drive up prices even more for american households. during his campaign, trump promised the opposite. so when i went, i will immediately bring prices down, starting on day one, many, many days, late to and some a wondering if trump may have to eat his words. for now the, the us is looking to make up the some of the shortfall by importing eggs from turkey. one of the world's biggest ex voters, which is unclear,

is quick fix will contain the launch of problems the american consumers could face if trump fails to deliver on his pledge to reduce prices. and finally, when was the last time you send that to an actual physical data or the shop decline? and that's a volume says lead denmark's postal service. so now, so they will stuff old that's a deliverance by 2026. after 400 years of service, post notes as even also remove the iconic red lots of boxes. the staples of danish towns and cities, danes may no longer be sending that says the purchase is on the internet. a still rising post node will not focus on delivering parcels instead. and that was the day in the fall of the team on social media at the w news latest

headlines over his available cost d, w dot com on the d w. and out of that from the whole team on the day and suspending problems with your day with the

air conditioning systems that fight climate change. researchers and engineers are developing sustainable cooling models for private household in city districts. they applies tend to is old wisdom about wind and weather and combine it with full ideas to create something new to the point next on dw sizing, called con, you know, on tvs. my see is and with, i'm going to be

a good model. always you can defend yourself that you can start off with. what is it like to come out when you're married? how does on mental health impact a lot of life between east to west or the cross is right in the middle and the world around germany is getting more dangerous. we de code hold. it means senior in 16 minutes and i think on d. w. the ending at 1020. i went to a sick man's band 54 years old. he did everything he could to make me understand that i had to help him live because he has 2 children. he asked me to call claudia by searching his phone contact. to tell her he wanted to say hello. instead,

i had to tell claudia and frank, i was gone 5 years off to cousins. we remember window road stood still stops much 8 on dw, the you've probably seen those clips of ukrainian president followed him years. lensky is trip to the oval office. it ended in disaster and the fall out came quickly, but the trump administration's decision to suspend all military a to your meaning of the white house, definitely going to be in history books. as a moments of monumental change in the united states wrote on the world stage without the americans, how bad do things now looking for you, prayed the europeans step in to make up for the last supports this week on to the point where i'm looking at the consequences of donald trump putting u. s. military a to ukraine on holds.
