and the idea, for example, which was voiced by the ukrainian president in munich of the european armed forces, it has been discussed in ukraine. there is an understanding that if such forces are created, then it'll be much easier and maybe faster to decide whether any foreign contingent can be sent to ukraine after, for europe, in particular. and ukraine is living with all these very long already. what are the next steps here for president zelensky? so the next step obviously, is, to find out, if and how ukraine work that can take place in the kingdom of saudi arabia. then the question are how ukraine can be involved. and then that is something that also highlighted by zelensky to be discussed at the table. our chief international correspondent lyse doucet has and chair of the elders, juan manuel santos. security conference. what we are seeing around the world, and we're that the world has right now. the first steps have been done. i don't know. i have not been able to identify exactly what is the plan in that discussion. ukraine has to be on the table. that is a necessary condition. but let'

armed forces of europe must be created. we must build the armed forces of europe so that europe's future depends only on europeans. like these troops in estonia, lies with nato. everyone here agrees that europe needs to spend more on defence. but, no, says the eu's top diplomat, not a new army. we don't need a separate alternative to nato. we have nato. we have the armed forces, 27 countries — 2a of them also in nato. new nato member finland has a long land border with russia. here, too, the foreign minister is opposed to a new european army. of course. what we've tried to emphasise is that we need a credible plan to keep russia at bay going forward — notjust in ukraine, but also elsewhere. ..to come to a close. here in munich, the ukrainian president did spend time meeting the us vice presidentjd vance. so now, there are talks about peace talks, but that's still a long way from a deal that's acceptable to both ukraine and to its russian invaders. frank gardner, bbc news, munich. meanwhile, ukrainian president volodymyr zelensky said he blocked a draft minerals deal with the us because it the proposed deal would h
