do you kind of loved him? is that excuse taking part in those discussions more careful than ever to express his gratitude for your opinions support. so what kind of do you cry and your expect from the us in the future? and these donald trump extorting precious mental 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 they have, for europe, has to be able to protect itself to defend itself. i think we shouldn't underestimate our own power when it comes to europe. for me is the most important thing. to 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 never see

also on the day of the prize of eggs in the united states is still surging, very become so expensive. it's of after 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 struck him 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 fueled in 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 the to the u. k. issued a blunt warning move, but you, most of us in 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 depending where you want ordered silver, but it is no longer just rush and its allies that are trying to destroy the world order in the united states of america is actually destroying it completely off, but fortunately, when he finds a lot of music lensky was back in brussels today to attend that emergency summit. going into the talks commission president as going off on the line underscore the urgency of stepping up and again, slides to some support for keith. this is a watershed moment for year old and to crane as part of our european family. it's also a watershed 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 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. these cons, so strong support from the wherever you know, the war and the lots being during all this pure and last week you stay with us. and of course, from all the prayers, from all our nations, big appreciation, well, where to sample that we are not alone. well, let's take a closer look at this with a popular came can who was you trains foreign minister from 2014 to 2019. welcome to dw, i'm 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 amazing not just the group discussions we share happens there, but the samsung bridge goes uh, the on statements deeds, the concrete plans. uh, samson. uh, we share what the defined ukrainian security as part of a or b and security, but not something uh, reach is, uh, just uh, not part of your. secondly decision about, uh you are a b and deterrence. and i believe uh, as the filter been uh, discussions about the 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 ad defends true. they have secure been discussions about the step in app uh

with the we phone i m d and productions and fundamental they use this role to your shift. you rely on itself and type views that here you green should be dead girl by the fewer. okay. not to be as cold as holloway shelves the union, and that's why the shopping list let's, let's, let's just start with a reality. do you believe that you're a well really follow through on its promises to defend itself? i think daniel craig, without the united states to be 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, doesn't exist, then show why. because uh, we are able to produce more here in the grade. we are probably one of the best in the role to and drones on different technologies, including a pile of drones. of course, the weekend bread use a kind of venture. so these do me a lot f searching 562 f search or 5 plane. but it's also by which you are a 2 step e n framed us was the lab offer us assistance. all right, i'm, i'm in holly. do you believe the message now? i'm the middle shrink assistance to, i'm sorry. what about the intelligence assistance? a, 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 assess, get to be able to use 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 hitting a meal for the 2 by 4 across the nose. got their attention. as far as it is significant, obviously because of the, of the, of the, of the support that we give a single meal with a 2 by 4 pavlo 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 trash and 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 credible solution. ok, that's a, that's a lie, right? that's a line that we have heard many times. i mean, as 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 putin. so again, do you do as 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 in trans who transferred to mos 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 bill that included, that includes the us access to ukrainian minerals, a join us, the ukraine, the investment fund with you try and contributing 50 percent of future revenue was made from the countries natural resources of critically no explicit us secure. c, a guarantees. so i won the popular, it's face donald trump, extorting ukraine sign, they steal over here we remove your access to us military and intelligence assistance for is this 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 ukraine, but military assistance and even the logistics and all kinds of staff a to use now is a sort of 0 or a sure jewel gets a hand to gain momentum on negotiations because the us administration wants or is each via 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 family relations with the us. so why i would love to mix up was this deal and military assistance. nothing is over to us. and you think that single, completely separate, so as a form, a foreign minister of ukraine, if loving me is events to ask for your opinions, should i sign the steel public?

what would you tell me if i moved? i would say yes of course, because the is the, is the kind of deal we sure would breeding us enter your grade. but it shouldn't be a deal base, as i said on partnership based on the idea of how we got the rate. except we know that's not the case, but 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 know what our broker gave. it should be a real deal between us as but this is, you know, as a way to be effective was for green and for uh, for the united states. so time ukraine resist the american pressures to do

a deal with russia, even on the terms, but favor russia. i mean, for us to 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 why i'm just, yeah, 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 bass 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 to reserve funds 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 reference. so it's not about bucking

e long is that not that tall and it wouldn't be supported by the upgrade in society . let's zoom out from what's happening in your country. we heard just before you came on from your country, something passes to britain that the united states is completely destroy. the world order is a room to grow older. 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 l at you. and if you have a loop out is fundamentally wrong. i mean us is destroyed and angel figuration is that all see up and we all understand so that in 10 years from now in may, the treatment, greed? yeah. right. we will leave when we have funds. i mentioned a different world. what did you think when you saw last, friday's explosive wife. how's meeting between your presence and donald trump as

well? i expected the motion so it's just me. it's not like that. but i probably would have expected that your motion said going around to in the close non public images and, but what we saw is also a fundamental difference. installing a new one to 2 pro, jumped into this and so base into this. and so from a man for us, 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 type conformant, ukrainian foreign minister. thanks m o. as a you latest look to boost the military, defense is the word and your credit is already off handed. years of establishing that reduction drones have become one of the defining weapons of the conflict, something ukrainian soldiers, a native countries. i'm not prepared to handle tanks,

trenches and artillery. the early battles and rushes invasion of ukraine play down like scenes from the 2 world wars. but now, 3 years on another weapon has come to dominate the battlefield. drones. let me pull some a little bit if it had not been for drones. everything would have been a lot worse. drones are the tool which allow us to given 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 for us. leslie useful, but from unmanned aircraft to tiny home made models, drones. and now the most common weapons 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 head drone costs, and how much does a hidden costs and the cost of 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 for sure. yeah, but from what i see in here available, what not a single needle army is ready to resist the cascade of drones known as

european allies look to ramp up to the defense spending. drones are already shaping how the was of the future will be for as well defense unless the marina meter on from kings cottage london gave us a assessment of nato's preparedness for drove off 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 low train munitions as well as a tactical, reconnaissance and so on. and so you, doctrines will probably be written up production will be adjusted and also training and the education of the armed forces of respective countries will have to be adjusted to include this training to include asked, tv drones of house

a will be used on the bottle too, but we should not forget that it's still critical to have that the can logical edge so that here, 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 a lot of for delivery. so drones do not really serve as a substitute for more conventional weapons. donald trump has doubled down on the stated goal of antics and greenland in this week's address to congress. he said they, i'd be ivan who would eventually be in american hands one way or the other. i'll be the licensed on the island fast approaching. many voters are taking the opportunity to reignite the debates of what really matters to them, which is independence from denmark. america is donald trump reiterated his desire to antics greenland to the us in 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 going to get it one way or the other way. 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 oil. denmark, illinois, the 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 just article is very likely is that to it will be a process at talking about independence, real independence for the 1st time or between denmark and greenland. denmark explorer administer said the most important part of trump speech was to respect the island. the sovereignty, why to that they want to loosen 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. presidents of the capital nuke gave a mixed reaction. this is one way or the other way, going to keep on dreaming on the drum. so you've got the village, so you've got the fluids, you've got everything. i think she didn't keep audit related to relay tap.

no more than is normal. everything we did we did have and he might like to add add a lot of taxes here, which would also increase the home this year. 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. that's led to the coming of millions of chickens. the price hike of such a in the central parts of the american diet is feeding into why the fee is of inflation. and 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. this is a 3, is impose the surcharge of $2.00 on old meals containing ex employees. say most customers have sold at the move for now the others. it's yet another reminder that the cost of living in the us is going up. um, it's a good mix. 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 full 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. trade target will drive up price is 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 later. and some a wondering if trump may have to eat his woods. for now the, the us is looking to make up the some of the shop full 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. finally, when was the last time you sent a letter, an actual physical actor on the shop decline and that's a volume says lead denmark's postal service. so now i'm said able stuff. old that's a deliverance by 2026. after 400 years of service, post note says 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. so post node will now focus on delivering parcels instead on that was the day in the fall of the team on social media at the w news based
