another incident with the pipeline uh, between nato allies. that's right between filling in the stony of the baltic connector of finland is saying that it believes there was intentional damage done to this pipeline which carries a gas back and forth between filling done is tonia, but also to to other nato allies also to lot via so the, an investigation is underway by spanish authorities at the moment. what need it was saying is that there will be a nato response if it is found that there was a sabotage done purposely to this pipeline. but it's very early and been, was investigation at the moment to, to, for nato to, to make more specific. um, specific threats against, uh, whoever may have been responsible for this. now, with the attack on his route in the headlines, is there a feeling with international support for you? crime could suffer, certainly president followed him. is it lensky who came here yesterday to nato headquarters? his 1st time at a meeting of the so called ramstein group? the group that coordinate support for ukraine, he of co

we must support our ukrainian allies. with that, madam president, i

our nato allies have stepped forward. countries around the globe understand that this battle is between democracy and freedom and autocracy and inhumanity must be one. president zelensky came to this very building two weeks ago to ask for our support.il he received overwhelming bipartisan promises from members of the senate and the house and of course i was proud to pledge my support but i need my senate colleagues also. it's that on the heels of after looking person zelensky in the eye and promising to stand with him at our house collects decided to all ukraine's funding on the continuing resolution. that decision contradicts the majoritygr of congress will end the american people. it breaks faith with the people of ukraine who are about to preserve their nation and their wives and their battle is our battle. their battle against unprovoked aggression by putin against a democratic a neighbor is a batte that we must assure they can win. because he won't stop there. mr. presently can't allow the few members of the house of

we want partners and allies to do the same. we want to make sure that is a country -- if a country is trying to acquire a particular to elegy it cannot get around the system by going into a place with more room and export controls. to me, this is common sense to work together to bring all of us to similar standard, and i would say it is not just to protect companies and the i.t. that they produce, let it is fundamentally to protect the war fighter. if these technologies are exploited against our war fighter, they would also be affected. sen. risch: i am proud that this committee has done its job in terms of producing legislation and coming to agreement on it. i want to thank the chairman for working in partnership. as always, the devil is in the details, and i hope no one gets the idea that we might have some different views on how we handle this technology transfer, that somehow there is daylight between us, there is not. we are on the same page. and so i hope that we can move forward in that regard. interestingly enough, you

the first one would there be have there been other allies besides u.s. and germany that today pledged military support to israel? when it comes to the support, in your assessment, what would be or could be the further needs of israel if this conflict continues? third question, somewhat related to what my colleague asked, secretary-general stoltenberg told us after the meeting he made an announcement that allies have made clear israel has a right to defend itself. but with proportionality. could you please explain, if you chair this -- share this statement with proportionality, and what it is in a situation like this. thank you. secretary austin: as we were briefed by minister gallant earlier today, what we heard from allies in the room was the unity among all of the allies in terms of strong support for israel and unity in condemning the horrible actions of hamas, what the united states is doing, you have heard us talk about a number of times, and that is we are moving rapidly to provide israel what it needs to continue to protect its citizens and to pro

allies. we need to get this right. before we add other partners, but these agreements are necessary if we are too pro vail in the long term competition with china and issue and their partners. it would not only show us to be an unreliable ally and also signal that we are fundamentally unserious about competing with china. thank you very much, mr. chairman. >> thank you senator. let's turn to our witnesses. it's my privilege to welcome back to the committee assistant secretary for the bureau of political military atears jessica lewis. she was on the committee as a democratic staff director for five years. the best years of her career. from 2007 to 2014. assistant secretary lewis was the national security advisor in foreign policy advisor and then senior national security advisor to senate majority and minority leader harry reed. we also welcome assistant secretary of defense for strategy plans and capabilities dr. marla colin. dr. colin is now working for her sixth secretary of defense. where she has advised the departm

allies. i fully appreciate that we don't want to open the doors to using this as a trojan horse to do some things we don't want to do. i have served on this committee for 15 years now that i have been in the senate. i also at the same time have served on the intelligence committee. i would like to report to this committee that one of the very first things i noticed between the two committees is that there is a very distinct difference between the way we treat allies in the intelligence field versus how we treat them on other things, like export. i think, probably it would behoove visit the state and the department of defense to spend a little bit of time with the intelligence committee. we share incredibly, incredibly, sensitive and important material with the five eyes. so, here i don't have the concerns that some have. as far as the chairman is concerned i'm using this as a trojan horse, that is a legitimate concern and it certainly deserves attention. having said that, i think that there m

the united states will stand side-by-side with our democratic ally israel. i urge my colleagues to join me in voting in support of this resolution. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlewoman's time has ex-niempled gentleman reserves. the gentleman from texas is recognized. >> i yield two minutes to the gentlelady from missouri, mrs. wagner. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady is recognized for two minutes. mrs. wagner: i rise in support of h.res. 771. today the house has an opportunity to demonstrate moral clarity and moral courage. these past few weeks have exposed a level of anti-semitism in this nation that is frightening. whether it is schoolchildren chanting for the genocide of israelis by calling for removal from the river to the sea or radicalized college students projecting anti-semitic slogans on the side of school property, it is clear young americans are being indoctrinated against israel. these actions must be con deemed. hamas is a terror organization. that slaughtered innocent women and children. hamas is a terror organization that manipulate

that provides more finances than all our other allies combined, and an ally that provides more weaponsn all the rest of our allies combined, that in this alliance... there are questions about whether we should continue to be supported and if so, still, to what extent, when, how, that, very much many, let's say, lamented, puzzled, and for those who are actually against helping us, it gives them hope, here are the events in the us congress, they have now madly inspired the kremlin and madly inspired all the agents of the kremlin in europe, i can imagine how just well, maybe even danced with treason... for example, orban, well, in reality the catastrophe has not yet happened, eh , so far it is only about the fact that in the temporary compromise budget, which will be in effect for the next 45 days, we will not be taken into account, per se , this is not a disaster at all, since the forty-day budget is known precisely the crisis budget, this is a very compromise budget, which was adopted in order for you to gain time to work on the main, real annual budget, so that at this time there is si

así hasta que nos dijeron que que vale que ya íbamos salir y luego ya cuando salimos de allí nosotrosamos por ahí, sí, los llevaban allí y nos gritaban y yo decía si nosotros no tenemos la culpa de nada, pero bueno para la orilla, گرفته شدن این عامل به ذهنم اومد و غریزی منو کشوند داخل تووریست ها بودن که از مسیر اصلی رفتم رسیدم به توریستها و بهشون دلداری بدم که موردی نیست حل شده گرفته شده شما خوبین حالتون چطوره چطورین و دقیقاً توی همین اتمسفر و فضا بودم که اومدم با یه چشم گرییان که ببخشید که با یه همچین صحنه ای روبه رو شدید اصلاً یه همچین چیزی اولین بار اتفاق میافتد توی این شوک بودم که من واقعاً عذرخواهی می کنم که اینجوری از شما پذیرایی یا خوش آمدگویی شد. llorando el pobre entonces yo todo el rato, tranquilo, tranquilo, que estamos bien, que nos pasa nada, que no ha sido nada, y el pobre, y de hecho vino al día siguiente al hotel, estuvo con nosotros mucho rato y tomando un café y allí pues todos también contando la experiencia y todo, eso te puedo decir, cada noche yo antes que yo duermo, yo pienso sobre responsabilidad de grupo, porque para mí una cosa totalmente extraño, en este mou

this gets rise to a new allied strategy and an opportunity for most of the come on out to tech. the allied forces attacked the deliberately put into now with infantry, sparking a static bathroom that lasts for months. the, the ultimate officer, most effect tomorrow, is in command of an entire section of the front. the one of his orders from the trenches goes down in history. no great models gave of the audio not to attack the you to die in the time others were rise up in deliberately the ultimate empire, a chief one final victory, but at great cost, almost half its soldiers phone and back on the desktop. revised cannot stop the inexorable downfall of the empire the ultimate as rules, southeast europe and large parts of the arab world. for centuries. in the 19th century, the empire becomes known as the sick man of your at 19 o 8. the ottoman empire loses bosnia and herzegovina to the hops books. that same here book area declares that independence. 3 years later, in 1911, tripoli is lost. vitale ins. and in 1914, egypt officially becomes a british protectorate and the officers of

we've got the allies, many allies of - got the allies, many allies of israel at the moment, absolutelyl's right to defend itself. but also saying more has rules. how do you, from a strategic basis, go into presumably the north of gaza and take out these tunnels, take out the infrastructure and not hurt civilians? you take out the infrastructure and not hurt civilians?— hurt civilians? you don't. this is an absolutely — hurt civilians? you don't. this is an absolutely impossible - hurt civilians? you don't. this is l an absolutely impossible situation for the idf. i understand the urge to act. you can win every tactical engagement with hamas and still lose the war. if the united states has proven that. hamas remember engaged in this horrific terrorism precisely in this horrific terrorism precisely in order to incite a reaction from israel. it's getting what it wanted. hamas is no protector of the palestinian people. hamas is using them in this situation, and it is bringing upon its own people the wrath of the idf. that's what they want, that's how they win, that's how they create world

but of course, so are our allies? i believe so to each of you beginning with dr cha, what would be the impact on the psychology of our security alliance between the united states and south korea? what would be the psychological impact in south korea where the united states to discontinue its support to the people of ukraine? >> so it's a great question. i'll offer some thoughts on it. i think. so the region, south korea, our allies, south korea, japan and australia are watching very closely what the united states is doing in ukraine and how we're supporting ukraine if we were to discontinue funding, you know, i think politically they could rationalize it and say, well, you know, south korea and japan, we're treaty allies. ukraine is not a treaty ally, it's not a member of nato. so i think publicly, politically they could rationalize it. but inside, behind closed doors, i think they would be very concerned that an attack of this nature against a country unprovoked and then the united states does not continue its suppor

he is a very close ally of mr trump. — ally of mr trump.y of mr trump. he is a very close ally of mr trump, however, i want l ally of mr trump. he is a very close l ally of mr trump, however, i want to point to the previous candidates like tom emmer, who was the web, and thatis like tom emmer, who was the web, and that is the third or fourth person in the republican party, the most important person in the house, and he essentially put out a statement killing his chances. it happened earlier with steve scalise, the second most important republican in the house of representatives. president tran put out a statement suggesting that he wasn't well enough, because steve scalise has cancer. and so, members of congress just fell in line, so he is extremely instrumental and still the leader of the party, and very influential even in the house of representatives. even as not an elected official and going through his own trial issues. fiifi elected official and going through his own trial issues.— his own trial issues. 0k, senior olitics his own trial

america and the allies of israel have to step up.up and step up quickly and fiercely. because hamas, the iranian regime, the pistil liens —— palestinians have been involved in and picked the perfect time in understanding the weaknesses in the iron dome that have worked for israel for so long that with the barrage of missiles attack and all simultaneously is going to begin its defences. they have found that out, whether it was the equipment left in afghanistan or whether it was technology that was shared by the chinese and whether it was the monies that have been relieved for them to have access from the iranians to provide this intel and technology so that they can attack israel. but now is a time for no more talking. that israel and its allies must act quickly to let hamas and the iranians and palestinians that the sort of massacre is not going to be tolerated at all across the world. jim going to be tolerated at all across the world. , ~ , , going to be tolerated at all across the world. ~ , , �*, the world. jim murphy let's bring

. intentions, and we consider them a serious ally-— serious ally.t specifically on the negotiations to _ serious ally. ok, but specifically on the negotiations to release i on the negotiations to release hostages, our correspondent was reporting earlier that hamas is said to have given a positive response to the release of multiple hostages, but those kinds of negotiations, i can't quite establish whether you are in favour of them or not. i think that the idea of selection between those who have foreign passports, those who don't have foreign passports is also a cynical game. if they want to do a humanitarian gesture, if they care whatsoever — we don't care because if you care about humanitarian needs and burn baby is alive and behead them, and shot children that shot children, hiding in a shelter, there's nothing humanitarian about hamas. and if they want to do something positive, they can release all the citizens that they have in captivity straightaway. the biden administration _ captivity straightaway. the biden administration in _ captivity str

of course, so are our allies. each of you beginning with doctor, what would be the impact on the psychology of our security alliance between the united states and south korea? what would be the psychological impact and south korea or the united states to discontinue its support to the people of ukraine ? >> that is a great question. i will s offer some thoughts ont i think to the region, south korea are watching very closely. what the united states is doing to ukraine and how we are supporting ukraine. if we weree to discontinue funding, i think politically they could rationalize it and say, well, you know, treaty allies. ukraine is not a treaty ally. it is not a member of nato. politically, they could rationalize it. inside, behind closed doors, i think they would be very concerned. an attack of this nature against a country unprovoked and in the united states does not continue its support of ukraine. certainly having a major impact on the credibility of the u.s. commitment, not just in europe, but also in asia.

allies and partners. we also witnessed pilots deliberately interfering with and creating turbulence for u.s. operators by flying in front of aircraft at close differences. photos from an incident in january 2020 to show the jet crossing in front of the lawfully operating u.s. assets at a distance of just 100 yards forcing the pilot to fly through the pla's wake hundreds of miles per hour at an altitude of tens of thousands of feet. may of this year as you know it released a video of an aircraft speeding along a u.s. aircraft before cutting in front of it. you could even see the physical effects of the turbulence on the aircraft and the crew. this is yet another disturbing sign of the coercive and risky operational behavior at the time when the prc has declined our invitations to open lines of military to military communication at the seniormost levels. the images and videos speak for themselves. u.s. planes are operating safely, responsibly and in accordance with international law. the skill and the profe

it's policy of negotiating on the table as long as the united states and its western allies actually remove this idea that they need to use ukraine to defeat russia. road 2 or 33 to 0 after and citing a major crisis in europe. the west is attempting to spread the conflict potential, today's a pacific region in a variety of ways. the recently been active attempts to deploy nato's military capabilities in the region. nato is using the asia pacific region to conceal its military build. uh so uh, show you what is explaining that the west and the us, the southern interest and the reason, uh, our uh, after sanctions and pressure from washington and its allies forced russia to change its course and look to the east and look at its uh at its allies in the us, of course, has been trying to isolate russia and china. but it has drastically failed in this mission and is trying to add 3rd countries to the blocks where you also know that the dangerous construction of military biological laboratories in single port thailand, cambodia and south korea. now these have been allegedly associated with th

i think our allies are with us.hey are providing roughly the same amount in dollar terms of military aid as the united states, which is quite extraordinary. it is indeed a breakthrough for burden sharing although we will continue to ask for even more. i do think that it ain't over until it is over and i think the ukrainians still have the potential to tip the scales even more. what they have done in crime area in basically neutralizing the russian navy is quite extraordinary given they have no navy of their own. debra: i just want to add one point. i think it is important to understand that russia's ability to continue to have the weapons and a lot of the ammunition is highly dependent on iran. i think people should not forget that and there is some evidence that some systems have started to flow from north korea. greg: so the drones are coming from iran? what else? debra: we think -- and i'm not privy to all of the intelligence -- that there are also components to missiles as well. because iran modeled a lot of the

will allies nato allies that is lose focus on ukraine that you think? i think that you're creating a president zelinski very much had that in mind when he came here yesterday. it was the 1st time that he, he'd ever come to the ukraine defense contact group. the group that coordinates a to ukraine, and i think that allies made very clear to him that they would not be deterred in their support for ukraine, by what's happening and israel. a very specifically, both nato and the united states that they can and will do both support ukraine and support is real at the same time. oh, correspondent terry shows. they're reported from native headquarters in brussels. thank you very much, terry. as i'm back here in germany time, so it will show us as arch palestinian president obama with a boss to clearly condemn the mazda of tax on israel, calling a silence sofa, shameful. in his speech to the gen problem and shows also pledge to support for you as well as the german farm is to another. and a bad bulk announced she would make a soul a day or 2 visits to tel aviv on

iapologise, a israel is a nato ally but not a nato country. i apologise, a nato ally.had been a number of nato every member would have to come to nato's back israel's red fence after it's attack. israel is not a member. the idea that you asked do you want to continue to provide military support to a democracy in the shape of ukraine against the barbaric dictatorship of president putin and your answer as an accounting exercise? the united states has war games for decades how to denude russian military capability and it relied upon hundreds of thousands of assumed american troops would die taking on russia here we have a situation with the united states forjust 5% of its defence budget and not a single drop of american blood is managing to support an ally in taking on the might of the russian state. that is a remarkable geopolitical opportunity for the united states, let alone the defence of democracy and free people in ukraine. but it's another example of how the republican party, the party of ronald reagan has completely lost the plot. they are so obsessed of a preside

this gets rise to a new allied strategy and an opportunity for most of come on out to tech. the allied forces attacked the deliberately put into now with infantry, sparking a static bathroom that lasts for months. the, the ultimate officer, most effect tomorrow, is in command of an entire section of the front. the, one of his orders from the trenches goes down in history. no great models of the audio not to attack the you to die in the time. all those were right, all right. the old though his troops are as number i took is able to home disposition until reinforcements arrived. trish steve does, there's no doubt that he was decisively involved in repelling the invading troops at 2 significant positions. fatalities. talk about the overall military strategy shake was developed by the german general lee mind funds on those of i live on the phone. so i'm those get size that the to this day, chucky celebrates added to us. the great heroes can literally, there are many monuments to his bravery across the country, the indelibly, the ottoman empire, a cheap one final victory, but a g

allies and partners. we've also witnessed p.l.a. pilots interfere with and create turbulence for orptors by flying at close distances. photos from an incident in january, 2022, show a p.l.a. fighter jet crossing in front of a lawfully operated u.s. asset at a distance of just 100 yards, forcing the pilot to fly through the p.l.a.'s wake. again this is at speeds of hundreds of miles per hour and altitude of tens of thousands of feet. this is not a one-off occurrence. in may of this year, indo-pacom released voof an aircraft speeding along a u.s. aircraft before cutting in front of it. you can see the effects of the turbulence on the crew. this is another sign of the p.l.a.'s coercive, risky may haver at a time when the p.l.c. has declined invitations for military-to-military communication at the senior-most levels. u.s. planes are operating safely, responsibly and in accordance with international law. indeed the skill and professional. i of american service members should not be the only thing standing between p. l.a. fighter pilots

our allies and partners, $90 billion. if you look at budget support, united states has supported about 22 billion. military sport, allies and partners, $33 billion. humanitarian assistance, united states, $2.3 billion. allies a partner, a 4.5 billion plus another 18 to 20 billion in caring for the many repudiation who went to europe. i think the message it would send, first of all, to impeach everyone of these countries, the united states is abandoning ship, we may as well too. second, our alliance itself is founded on the proposition we are all in this together. i think they would see this as a retreat from our own responsibilities. finally, you are the secretary of defense say this, there is no date in my mind that if putin is continue to allow, not only would he stop ukraine, it would send the message to would- be aggressors everywhere the world that if he can get away with it, so can we. then we are likely to have a world full of conflict and that is a world that is not for the united states. we are much better sustai

i would say also asian allies including allies like australia, japan, south korea have stepped up and want to work with the united states and hope to support the united states and nato in terms of what they are doing in ukraine. they've been providing a lot of assistance and hinted that he would provide more assistance notan just humanitarian but legl assistance. if the united states werere to stop funding the defense of ukraine it would havene an impat on the credibility. >> thank you mr. snyder. >> i would agree as i suggested inhe my opening remarks that the is the risk of the revisionist contagion that i think our analyze are focused on. a setback.be as related to the allies stepping up i believe that the ideaof that most have is that ty would go together with the united states if they are asked to fill the gap i think in particular theoc context of souh korea there are a couple of obstacles one is domestic resistance and the more important one is that with the summit russia has established a kind of mutual deterrent dynamic with south korea is related to the possibility of legal
