so to keep ben wallace in his. tricky calculation that he to make. now, under pressure from both sides, raise that defence spending and to label china as an official threat in that integrated which is taking place on the 7th of march. just to balance , of course, we do have balance, of course, we do have this former chief of the air defence , air chief marshal sir defence, air chief marshal sir michael graydon and we apologise for language say , don't get your for language say, don't get your knickers in a twist until we find out what's actually in the balloons. of course. i guess until we find out from the united states who they're looking at, the electronic gadgetry recovered what gadgetry recovered as to what the chinese actually up to. the chinese were actually up to. absolutely of course, it should be said that some of these some these conservative china hawks have been very strong on this trying to message for a really long time. iain duncan smith will use almost any opportunity to put pressure on whoever the

munich alongside ben wallace.urprised about is that when you go in operations , that when you go in operations, know the military are funded for a certain level of activity. as soon as you move into operations, you go to the treasury and you say, this is what going to do now is above the core funding. my the core funding. and my assumption have been that ben wallace would have spoken to the treasury far we're treasury said as far as we're concerned, the same an concerned, this is the same an operation are going expend operation we are going to expend training, we're to expend training, we're going to expend manpower, expend manpower, we're going to expend ammunition we ammunition and stocks that we have a manage webb's and you must sign here to say you will replace them a.s.a.p back into our inventory so i think that's what that's what we're seeing that nervousness behind yeah yeah hi there on gun site yeah well hi there on gun site and totally understanding of course the national priorities and none of us are nai

ben wallace, to look at sending fighterjets. but ben wallace, to look at sending fighter jets. very clear from what ben wallace is saying that they are not going to be supplying any typhoon jets or similar directly to ukraine any time soon. part because there's huge logistical difficulties there. very difference . flight to the soviet difference. flight to the soviet era, mig that ukrainian pilots are used to flying. they need longer runways . they're very longer runways. they're very complicated bits of kit . but complicated bits of kit. but what the british government are saying is that they stand ready to send typhoon jets to countries in eastern, for example, poland , if and when example, poland, if and when they are ready to supply soviet migs directly to. so britain would effectively back fill those planes . and of course, we those planes. and of course, we are also sending long—range missiles. now, rishi sunak is a conference call with the g7 this afternoon. hope to galvanise them to do more and do more fast because time really is of the essence and specify quickly encou

ben wallace knows no, no. ben wallace knows exactly he's talking about.ink it's three or four issues here. one is, to be honest, i haven't got a clue how prince harry thinks that he's killed a certain number of people. most casualties are caused at a distance. he was a helicopter firing into crowds or was suspected taliban casualties. i but not all of them are killed quite lot of just wounded. i mean, the normal rate, about three or four killed and wounded others will seem to have been hit. but actually just lying down and protecting . so lying down and protecting. so there's sorts of issues there's all sorts of issues about how he thinks he knows how many casualties caused . but ben many casualties caused. but ben wallace, his point is absolutely right. supported by right. he's being supported by all of people who are all sorts of people who are enabung all sorts of people who are enabling him to go into combat from the people alongside him at the there and others who the front there and others who are supporting the helicopter squadrons sustainability,

well britain's defence secretary ben wallace said uk be ben wallace said the uk be conducting a securityr incidents. one government minister saying it was possible that chinese spy balloons could be operating in britain's skies. now, in the past, the prime minister rishi sunak saying britain whatever it britain would do whatever it takes ensure safety and takes to ensure safety and security. so joining us in our studio, security editor mark and mark, therein lies the question whatever it takes. what is it going to take? because we're not quite sure what this is yet. we had the balloon originally. now they're talking about objects in terms yes. terms of us. space. yes. i mean, it's a real head scratcher and really only being exacerbated by the fact that the us in particular are seeing very little about what these objects . we remember, of course, on the 4th of february we had this supposed chinese spy balloon that was struck by a missile taken out of the skies when . it taken out of the skies when. it had transited us airspace and resides over the atlantic over the south carolina coast .

defence secretary ben wallace . defence secretary ben wallace.t's another sign of how the global threat picture is for the worse. the us is yet to identify the latest object during a pentagon air force general glenn van hook was asked if it could be alien at the intel community and the counter intelligence community figured out. i haven't ruled out anything at this point. we continue assess every threat potential threat unknown that north america with the intent to identify . well back intent to identify. well back here taxpayers money is said to have been wasted with labour the government of a spending culture party analysed the use of government cards and found that foreign office officials spent almost . £345,000 on dining and almost. £345,000 on dining and alcohol in 2021. labour says 40 major whitehall departments spent at least £145 million using pieces across the year. shadow levelling minister alex norris says the has been careless with public money. we've revealed is a culture of a government that's very very casual with the public's mon

and all the while the defence secretary, ben wallace , defence secretary, ben wallace, been tasked ofin terms of aircraft. of course is a decision to come a little bit down the line. it will take some time to train up ukrainian pilots after all, all that's decided. the final thing is that this consortium, this typhoon a consortium of germany italy and the united kingdom have to agree together in terms of whether one can be exported to ukraine. that's another hurdle in the future. yeah the eurofighter, as it used to be called the course tom at westminster the moment thank you very much indeed and we'll try and update you on what ben wallace will say in the comments a little later. but president zelenskyy himself in brussels today try push more eu today to try push for more eu support and weapons, including of course those fighter jets. and as we've been mentioning , and as we've been mentioning, secretary saying secretary ben wallace saying there'll be transfer there'll be immediate transfer of uk to ukraine. well, the prime minister said yesterday the uk could potentially send the uk

ben wallace is quite moment. ben wallace is quite right . and you've got to admire right.to admire zelenskyy mean he's a very courageous leader and a leader in the in the truest sense of the word, which sadly we lack elsewhere around europe. i think. but the chances of him getting uk jets think a minimal. you've got to remember what does he want these aeroplanes for. i mean we need to be we don't get sucked into air doctrine here but there are lots of different types of aeroplanes that achieve different things, fighter ground attack supporting infantry on ground offensive air support . ground offensive air support. and whether you're trying to get a super air superiority in a particular place where you get a penod particular place where you get a period of time or supremacy , period of time or supremacy, you're trying to dominate the airspace . there's all sorts of airspace. there's all sorts of different aeroplanes fit those models and others , and they're models and others, and they're very complicated of you can very complicated bits of you can train to fly them and we

ben wallace says the secretary. ben wallace says the army's . troubled secretary.en wallace says the army's. trouble d £5.5 billion army's. troubled £5.5 billion ajax tank order is back on track. yes, the ministry of defence is under heavy criticism for failing to deliver even one single deployable tank . this is single deployable tank. this is almost 13 years since the project began making the 589 vehicles and of course all this comes as ukrainian president is wanting western allies to send more military equipment to fight against russia. well giving an update on the ajax plans , ben update on the ajax plans, ben wallace says troops are now being trained to use the tanks inside these trials . they are inside these trials. they are being delivered into the army and, you know, making sure that the units that are destined to have them are starting their training so there's sort of lots of different ranges of ready this there's ready to take them and start training troops. we've already started to do that. and then next phase is, how then the next phase is, is how you

our correspondent ben wallace had this to say —— ben wallace had this to say. to say -- ben wallace hadand the differences knew us when you are on the receiving end of which tank. the reality is that britain knows what ukraine needs, and is very happy to help in many ways trying to achieve the effect. we are trying to look at what we can deliver. so i think in the here and now what we will focus on is the effect that ukraine needs, which is air support, effect that ukraine needs, which is airsupport, orsupport to effect that ukraine needs, which is air support, or support to moving troops, and that can be done in other ways. striking in the deep, in other ways. striking in the deep, in other words ukraine needs to get after the command and control parts and the logistical parts of russia, not in russia, but in ukraine. how can it do that? and at the moment thatis can it do that? and at the moment that is met by deep firing munitions, and it is close air support which is either delivered by attack helicopters or indeed at the moment by others which are armed, so those same effects can be

and today we're hearing from ben wallace , hearing from ben wallace, defence secretary, who has beensked to look into the possibility sending jets. that's britain has made no commitment to sending jets at this stage andindeed to sending jets at this stage and indeed we may not. what we have said is that we are going to train from the spring ukrainian pilots to be able to use standard jets . we're the use standard jets. we're the first country that's going to be doing that. so we're going to be doing that. so we're going to be doing that. so we're going to be doing that shortly . but whether doing that shortly. but whether any jets will be sent or not is deeply , deeply unclear. and deeply, deeply unclear. and indeed the defence secretary, who's been a joint press conference , italy, has basically conference, italy, has basically that they're going to start training to improve the resilience of ukraine, probably post conflict and suggesting that the pilots might not be trained until after the conflict is finished. of course that nobody knows how long it's going to last . in nobody kno

failed to secure nato commitments for fighter jets. ahead of the meeting, british defense secretary ben wallace said that you k was ready to supply weapons to ukraine. but said the use of fighter jets required extensive training data members a discussing how to speed up the supply of the other military equipment to ukraine . asked about possible peace talks with roger canada's defense minister anita anna, had this to say. if slide amir put in wants piece, he can leave ukraine in till that time, we need to continue to do whatever is necessary to support ukraine, sovereignty instability in the short and the long term. there are 3 main categories of aid that we are discussing. an air defense missile systems continued 155 millimeter ammunition as well as tanks. and in all 3 categories, canada has been contributing and we are working closely with our allies to ensure that aid of all sorts continues to be put on the table for ukraine. but no word on 5 digits there did use alexander phenomena following the summit in brussels. what is the likelihood of nato giving in to ukraine's please for finance? we

ben wallace said that more than 50 of these soldiers are going through intensive training courses to and guide the advanced british challenger 2 tanks. this british military official predicted war. in ukraine another year will continue and london continues to support the ukrainian army for another year . the us national security adviser announced the granting of two billion dollars in new security aid to ukraine and said that it will be needed to win the war . for ukraine's decisive superiority in the battlefield, the special group of seven should speed up the sending of its military aid to this country. moscow has warned the western countries to avoid world war iii. the deputy of the russian national security also said that if america wants to defeat us, with all my might, even with our nuclear weapons we will defend ourselves. a republican member of the us congress presented a proposal demanding the withdrawal of the country's troops from syria . he has presented a proposal to the us house of representatives that obliges the president of this country, joe biden, to withdraw the ame

ben wallace, the british defense ministers, in an interview with spiegel.admitted that many states simply do not have serviceable cars for kiev. what is the scale of the environmental catastrophe , questioning the answer to which the locals demand ? but there are no answers, of course, they are trying to assess the consequences, but in order to to see the whole picture and try to at least minimize the damage, the time was lost, the specialists were on the spot. emergency or after 2 weeks. residents believe the authorities counted the story to silence our staff correspondent in the george states. or he also visited the city where the train with chemicals derailed. here is his report. the billboard at the entrance to the city now spins only one ad free air test in your house sign a paper on the absence, claims railroad tracks in ohio, its look. so whether someone will be responsible for the fact that the crumbling roads allowed the kilometer-long train with dangerous cargo is not yet clear. to understand how close everything happened to the city, here is the

we also added fuel to the fire in the british ministry of defense, the head of the department, ben wallace said kiev is too wasteful in the use of ammunition. find and attract the responsibility of those behind the terrorist attack on the gas pipelines of the system. nord stream with such an appeal the un security council proposes to send russian parliamentarians a document today at a plenary session unanimously adopted a state duma deputy, the initiative was submitted to the chamber by the committee on international affairs, the authors emphasize that we are talking about damage to a critical infrastructure facility. not only for our country and germany, where the threads of streams stretch along the bottom of the baltic, but also for the whole of europe. so customers and contractors sabotage literally undermined the energy security of the entire region. directed both against russia and against germany, the netherlands, france, the united states of america, without embarrassment, realized the silence of the country, the state with a huge history, well, they turned into colonies so much, t

and secretary ben wallace, so. and secretary ben wallace, really good to have you on the program. the night were just some of the memories that ukrainians have recalled about the terror they experienced the morning russia invaded country a year ago today. morning russia invaded country a year ago today . yes, it's a year ago today. yes, it's a conflict that they didn't start, but it's a conflict that they are determined to win . we're are determined to win. we're joined by someone who was there on the first day of the invasion is british ukrainian student volunteer anna betancur, who joins us in the studio now. really good morning to valentina. take us back to that morning , please. of the 24th of morning, please. of the 24th of february 2022, what did wake up to? well, it's is of it to me right now, as if as was that day when it was happening, it was around four or five in the morning. and that was very loud explosion . and the moment i woke explosion. and the moment i woke up from that , explosion. and the moment i woke up from that, i, i think i immediately understood had happe

is not opposed to making such a statement by the head of the ministry of defense of the kingdom, ben wallacehis deputy confirmed that london plays a leading role in ensuring the supply of weapons. kiev, including through the purchase of weapons from other countries over the past year, british military assistance to ukraine amounted to more than $ 2.5 billion london also remains the most ardent supporter of sanctions, but ordinary britons are accumulating more and more questions for their government. lisa herzerks will continue. something that disgruntled british citizens can throw at their government. the island alternately ends in december, the hostess ran out of eggs, the poultry farmers ran out of eggs, then they blamed the supermarkets on brexit and the government, and the government on the bird fungus. as a result, it was possible to declare the chickens guilty, and calm down on this. well, now the tomatoes have run out. this is another one a product that is thrown at those who do not work well or do their job poorly, the four largest grocery chains in britain have introduced indefinite

months this definitely will not happen about this, the head of the british ministry of defense, ben wallacea consensus on this matter . he added that kiev could receive typhoon fighter jets, but they would not be delivered before the end of the special military operation. today, a decision was made to fly the progress spacecraft; it was attacked from the iss for a malfunction in the cooling system and were about to be flooded in the pacific ocean. however, additional pictures.

ben wallace said that more than 50 of these soldiers are going through intensive training courses to guide advanced british challenger 2 tanks. this british military official predicted that the war in ukraine will continue for another year. and london insists on continuing to support the ukrainian army for another year. the american national security adviser announced the granting of two billion dollars of new security aid to ukraine. itself to this speed ​​up the country, moscow warned the western countries of world war iii and refrained from doing so. the deputy minister of national security of russia also said that if the united states wants to defeat us , we will defend ourselves with all my might, even with nuclear weapons. the withdrawal of this country's troops from syria is dead except for the fact that the us house of representatives has submitted a plan that obliges joe biden to withdraw american troops from this country. this representative of the us congress told fox news that my plan includes the withdrawal of all american troops from syria. at it is a maximum of 15 days

it was a quote, if anyone did not understand, british defense secretary ben wallace suddenly discoveredwest did not have a magic wand that could help ukraine, which bloomberg wrote that us and euro officials said.

and in the uk, disputes are growing about the supply of fighters to the ukrainian military , ben wallace, in an interview with the bbc , said that in the near future, kiev will not receive military aircraft. he explained that, at best, their delivery would take months. after all, even if london decides to send them to the national battalion, do it. this is wrong. it's just that the uk is decommissioning about 20 eurofan fighters, but transferring them to ukraine will require the consent of other european countries that helped in the development of the aircraft, the british military says that this is preparation for the use of this technology. pilot training will take from 4 to 6 months, and they refused to transfer even more ground crew, fighters to ukrainians and in belgium, the prime minister of this country said that the kingdom itself needs this equipment natalya goncharova yevgenia zemtsova to lead at the site of the collapse of a house in novosibirsk, search work is underway under the rubble of a collapsed entrance, there may be people. according to the latest data , 12 residents o

ben wallace should be available by the summer.not quickly, but the propagandists insist that the expectations will pay off with a vengeance, they say, the tanks are a night, the nightmare of the russians, and in general has no equal among modern analogues. however, one cannot answer the nuances to which the witnesses of the virtual dill. they close their eyes. one of them is a modest number of these very challengers. only 14 pieces of the british. they just sneered at the ukrainians when they promise them challengers, when they put their guards on zelensky when they take zelensky's main people there under their control, that is, they fully proclaim their rights to ukraine and they completely take all this into their own hands into their reins board and instead of sending their equipment there. instead of, in order to quickly send something else to their troops there, they send 14 challengers and also not the best there, let's say. the power of the english tank is also , frankly, not indisputable, or rather, fraught with well-known

you know, we know ben wallace , the know, we know ben wallace, the defence secretary, is lobbying forllion. whether he gets it from jeremy hunt, we simply don't know. really quite shocking. what i'm seeing this morning that the french military capability mean you were a naval officer. they've got more frigates. we've got they've got more sailors . got they've got more sailors. we've got they've got more soldiers than got the french military forces. they may not be technologically quite as good as ours , but they're actually far ours, but they're actually far bigger than ours. and they do all of this on a reduced budget. they don't spend as much as we do, and they have a bigger force. so my thought is , if we force. so my thought is, if we do put 10 billion into our defence budget on budget day on the 15th of march, are we going to spend it properly? well as even to spend it properly? well as ever, nigel, this is less about strategy than it's about politics. politically it seems to be expedient to send material oil to ukraine, but not strangely enough to say that we're going to be prov

maybe there is something in store for ukraine , journalists guessed, but ben wallace did not utter a word of hope for planes for kiev, he did not even drop a handkerchief with a fighter jet, with which the ukrainian minister reznikov arranged the day before. here is a whole performance, strange and generally not fully understood. western patrons of this the topic is being actively curtailed when it comes to fighters. i do not think that in the next few months or even years we will transfer fighters. you just can't teach to fly in a week or two. besides , you need a team, like in formula-1, you come with hundreds of engineers and pilots. and this is not something that can be created in a few months, and we are not going to send 200 raf personnel to ukraine during the war. so the situation with the aircraft suddenly began to resemble a coalition with tanks, which as the german currency writes, cracks have already begun after long persuasion and forced german yes, in the supply of leopards, germany suddenly found itself alone olaf-scholz, most likely, will not achieve its goals of formi

disputes are growing over the supply of fighter jets to the ukrainian military defense minister ben wallaceew with the bbc , said that in the near future, kiev will not receive military aircraft. he explained that, at best, their delivery would take months. after all, even if london decides to send them as a battalion to do it. this is wrong. just the uk is decommissioning about 20 euro toyfon fighters, but transferring them to ukraine will require the consent of other european countries that helped the british military develop the aircraft. they say that a separate difficulty is the preparation for the use of this technique, the training of pilots will take from 4 to 6 months, and the ground crew refused to transfer even more fighters to ukrainians and in belgium the prime minister of this country said that the kingdom itself needs this technique natalia goncharova evgenia zemtsova to lead . we will tell you what this day is remembered for in history right now. hello february 10, 1784, empress catherine ii ordered to build the city of sevastopol on the site of the akhtiyar fortress, where

the british minister of defense climbed on a tank to take pictures with the ukrainian military ben wallacerrived at the base in dorsen county, where they are trained, the head of the department did not rule out sending new pieces of equipment if the ones already delivered are destroyed. and this despite the fact that, according to the british press, only less than half of the challenge 2 tanks in the army of the kingdom are considered combat-ready from the post. it is still more difficult for ukraine to transfer aircraft to fighters - this is a big deal , logistics, fuel, repair, engineering work, avionics, and often, a secret combat use unit in accordance with nato aircraft standards, all this requires considerable effort and expertise directly on the ground at the airfield. and this meant sending people to ukraine, you can't just hand over third and fourth generation fighters to an engineer who has no experience with them. i expect that they will participate in more than one sortie in no hurry to help ukraine with weapons. and greece, as the minister of defense said, the country will not

and ben wallace, the spending. to around defence secretary, is attempting to secure aroun d £11 billion to to secure around £11 billion to bolster little pot that we bolster the little pot that we have at the moment. joining now is professor michael clarke, former director general of royal united services institute . you united services institute. you very much. great to have you on the. hugely concerned light the. i'm hugely concerned light of what we've just been talking about about things like about there about things like this. military veterans this. now for military veterans , it would seem in some cases, but we do have homes for people who may be cross in a boat across the channel, but in a more serving settings now more active serving settings now , well prepared is our , how well prepared is our military? an extra 11 military? do need an extra 11 and half billion quid for it. and a half billion quid for it. well our military can go and do things so. it can go on expeditions can operate, but you have to put

and ben wallace, talks away yet. the secretary of state rather resistant , the secretary of state rather resistant, is that on the basis of concerns? strategic concerns or our defence capacity . well, or our defence capacity. well, there are also concerns that al—qaeda and, i think i mean, the fact the first one and he alluded to this in your introduction, john, is, you know, we don't have many warplanes. i mean, since the tories changed power in 2010. our our jet fighter fleet as been halved from in excess of 200 to just over 100. and i don't those you know once you dig down deep and service maintenance and repairs and all the rest of it. you know we have many warplanes. so that's first thing. and seen this when we gave the challenger tanks to ukraine immediately says, well, we need replacements it's been pared to down the bone or hollowed out to use the military term . so that's one concern. the term. so that's one concern. the other concern is it does take a long time to train people up, to fly these very sophisti

ben wallace says single tank.rained in to how use them and hopes they'll be active within the military in the next two years. when i took over as secretary of defence three and a half years ago. was a troubled programme. it started its life in march 2010 and i was determined that we were either going to fix this or have to find alternatives . or have to find alternatives. and so we put a lot of effort into it, worked with general dynamics, the prime contractor, and you and with the army. and, you know, i think think office use the trials that it completed at christmas it started to christmas time it started to turn a corner . thousands of turn a corner. thousands of displaced ukrainians are being given the chance to go to the eurovision song contest in may. around 3000 tickets will be made available to ukrainians who are currently in the country. liverpool been chosen to host on behalf ukraine who would, in last year's competition . the last year's competition. the government has announced million poundsin governm

there there is spring and summer if we effectively withstand the russian onslaught and the same ben wallacehe british minister of defense, says that we need to look now at other means that ukraine needs long-range means impression is possible unmanned systems, other systems, that is, you mentioned the shadow storm as one of the options for a long-range solution there for the destruction of enemy objects, is there an understanding of what other solutions on the part of britain or european countries would be the most relevant now , given the current needs of the armed forces in preparation for a counteroffensive and, well, solving problems on the battlefield. well, already in the short term. well , it's hard for me to say, i'm just not that well versed in these issues, what is needed on the battlefield, uh, everything seems to be given and after these what is better to call ground bombs which for high-mars yes 150 km now the side is up to 500 km and it really pushes back pushes back and destroys the communications and logistics of this war for russia they are forced to much more well it will
