i know, you know, since the late eighties, i think wee known that we were equal to what was in east germany in the bad air quality on the highveld. and there's something called a [indistinct], which is a test you do before you get employment, mostly at power stations and in the mines, and locals tell us that they regularly fail the [indistinct] test because they've grown up in a very polluted area. as they've grown up, they're unfit for work. [birds chirping] [tau coughs] munnick: this pollution was particulate matter, primary explanations of all the respiratory problems that we see on the highveld--particulate matter 2.5, small enough to get very deep into your lungs.

if he's been on the fast track, he would have been sent to the west, but he got east germany instead, which wasn't much of a consolation prize, was it if you were in the foreign department of the k g b? well, i mean, you know, he still was sent abroad, so that's, that wasn't bad either a, but he was just a lieutenant colonel and they were some other people who were in pushes and to rush, for example, there gave and off who was many times his various jobs held in the put in administration and was defense minister. he was told he was lieutenant general and was kind of a question as to why the great putin became became the president. why the tall and, and quite impressive even of even of did not. so it is, it has been a very big question, but i think on drop of he holds kids. i said he holds key to hooton's behavior because only and then drop and put in because drop was the k g, b had and put in was the head of the f as b, the successor to k g b for a little bit. and then both in charge of the whole country in, during this 2 administrations, this to leaders, the soviet union undone, drop

where, as they say, there will already be some oil options, which is for germany, especially for east germany is just a transport collapse, because two oil refineries in brandenburg and in saxony were built and sharpened to process exactly the high -sulphurous russian oil of the urals brand, they are not capable of anything else, but, that is, the economic effect of these sanctions, but for germany it will be simply destructive and catastrophic, and this one. these thoughts are constantly, apparently, present in the heads of those german politicians who make decisions on the supply of weapons, including heavy weapons. they are supplying these weapons to olga mikhail in this regard, almost intimate issues. don't get me wrong, i was billing some buildings, published recommendations. mol. wash. no need, you can wipe the dirtiest parts of the body with a cloth. that's how the germans normally react so rubbed. now it works like this in germany, well, you know the germans are generally economical people. and so to say e hmm well, i won't, yes, and the question is, really intimate i'm not will. i wo

and this is also some how it says, also very old supplies, good dating back to east germany. is now given the green light for east of intact to be sent for the tech republic. because germany has to give the green light on weapons that it has sold elsewhere. and so that is progress in the view of ukraine . and but what about on the vehicles that could be supplied by the german is defensive industry, which is the 4th largest in the world. and that doesn't seem to be coming through that's with the either. and here that seems to be there delivered the blood lines because what we've also learned from the far mystic label but also from the german defense ministers that they don't want to talk in public about what is actually actually being supplied. so we're not getting the full picture right now, but what we do know is jeremy has gone through some seismic changes. that's for sure. i mean, you already, but the argument is that those changes are still up fast enough. yeah. fast enough, not enough enough fast enough. all right, d, w political chief, political correspondent, thank you

battlefield, and at the negotiating table, for example, in saxony , the most industrialized region of east germanyine sharply against the supply of heavy weapons to kiev, if deployed tanks or aircraft, this line must be maintained with great concern. i watch how strong fences, foreign policy and germany's security policies are rapidly collapsing germany has so far refused to supply weapons to the conflict zones, and for good reason with such a message do not agree. the poles of the arms supply became the main topic in the talks of president duda with his baltic counterparts in kiev at a meeting with zelensky ukraine uh, ukraine is heroically fighting for its freedom independence sovereignty ukraine needs support, both humanitarian and political, but it also needs material and military support activity the international community is urgently needed by ukraine, but in warsaw itself, not everything is so smooth. the opposition offered to talk about where its current foreign policy is pulling the country, the speaker was turned off the microphone of the debate. we didn't have foreign policy deputies w

there were 400,000 soviet troops in east germany. it comes from a memoir called first-person.e said he was horrified by the protesters coming, he threatened to shoot them and he called nearby soviet troops for backup. they said i am not going to authorize that without specific approval for moscow, and moscow was silent. gorbachev refrained from lethal force to establish control. in boudin -- putin's opinion, that was a huge mistake, moscow should have used force. he developed the philosophy hit hard at the very beginning so your opponent cannot rise for a second blow. these are still in him. for putin, they are lived memories. they are personal to him, which makes it all the more scary for him. that is the reason i publish my book, i was worried, i could see this growing and i was afraid he might do violence on the 30th anniversary, and he did. i have never been sorrier to be right. it is consistent that this is unfair, moscow should not be silent, it should hit hard the first time by decapitating ukraine. fortunately for everyone it did not succeed. host: for people that are

the forty-fifth year, even in nazi germany, when soviet troops approached large cities, and in east germany population was saved by the local authorities, and if they prepared, uh, these or those defense echelons, then there were only the armed forces of the wehrmacht understandably. parrot quite the situation. but here they taught them, and after a short period of time in the middle east, this is how isis acted. they covered. they hid behind that experience which he has recently studied is associated with isis. and the main thing is that he likes the presidential adviser likes it as the most elegant and most effective, and the defense, of course, meanwhile, europe has pronounced its own verdict. well, for now, apparently still does not fully understand what it will turn out to be. and what kind of verdict is the european parliament with a majority of 413 votes. supported the resolution calling for a complete and immediate embargo on imports of russian energy carriers oil and gas. coal is nuclear fuel. and today in the state duma just on the topic of sanctions said our prime minister mikhai

ambassador was a little kid when the soviet union partitioned east and west germany, and build the berlin wall. and he was working with the soviet foreign ministry while vladimir putin was working in the kgb in east germany. when the soviet union became so weak that the people of berlin simply climbed up onto the fearsome berlin wall and chipped away at it with chisels and hammers on sledgehammers, and knocked it down. and then the downside on the grave of the soviet union in the process. he has seen it all, from the collapse of the berlin wall, to the soviet defeat in afghanistan, and so you know dot knows that vladimir putin has put russia in an unwinnable situation. his position became all the more uncomfortable today would present zelenskyy reminded the united nations that during the narrowing trials after the world war ii of nazi war criminals, one of the convicted war criminals was germany's minister of foreign affairs. but like soviet predecessors at the united nations today, it was ambassador nebenzia's data life for his government to the world's. >> now we're seeing blatant, crim
