any apart from what we heard just then from a jens stoltenberg - just then from a jens stoltenberg aboutnference that _ become us president again? in that news conference that jens _ news conference thatjens stoltenberg gave, he was very careful not to mention the name donald trump. he was very careful to stress that this alliance was in the us interest as well as europe's own interest, that yes europe has tens of thousands of troops hit defending europe if it comes under attack, but also remember, he said, that when there attacks in 9/11 happened in america, it was the first and only time that the alliance has invoked article five which is an attack on one country is an attack on all. he is stressing this is always in the us interest to be part of this alliance, but he is not, and he is very careful about this, just as he was when he was dealing with donald trump when he was president, not directly attacking him but making very clear that what he said was fundamentally wrong and was not what nato is about. nato is not a fee—paying membership club, it is up to individual countries how mu

i think it is the - projection of what jens stoltenberg projection of whatjens stoltenberg are sayinge 32 if sweden joins, it is waiting for hungary to give that approval in parliament, but that is a significant change from 2014, which is when they first set the goal of countries trying to reach a target of 2% of the gdp being spent on defence. then it wasjust of 2% of the gdp being spent on defence. then it was just three countries and jens stoltenberg saying now, at the end of this year, it will be 18 countries, so that is a significant. you then ask the question why is that? i'm sure donald trump would like to take some credit for it, he was going for more spent 20 he was president and those countries that seem to be 18 is because of what rudd may putin has been doing in ukraine and clearly the goal was set in 2014 when he first invaded crimea and now that concern in europe is much greater since the full scale invasion in russia. i think it is russia that has caused this a dramatic increase in defence spending in europe rather than donald trump when he was president. is than donald

let's listen to his reaction. l general, jens stoltenberg.d _ listen to his reaction. i am deeply saddened and concerned - listen to his reaction. i am deeply saddened and concerned about i listen to his reaction. i am deeplyl saddened and concerned about the reports coming from russia that alexei navalny is dead. all the facts have to be established and russia has serious questions to answer. alexei navalny has been a strong voice for freedom, for democracy for many years, and nato and nato allies have called for his immediate release for a long time. today my thoughts go to his family and his loved ones and we remain committed to support everyone that believes in democracy that alexei navalny has done for so many years. we don't have any information now. that is the reason why it is important to have all facts established. russia has some serious questions to answer. what we have seen is that russia has become a more and more authoritarian power that has used oppression against the opposition for many years. he was a prisoner and that makes

jens stoltenberg, welcome to hardtalk. thank you so much. is ukraine going to lose its war with russia? no, and it's our responsibility to ensure that we provide them with enough military help to enable them to prevail. because president putin must not win this war. that will be a tragedy for ukrainians, and dangerous for us. now, you have said that the most important single decision is for the us to agree a package of support. what happens if they don't? then the ukrainians and we all will be in a more difficult situation. but then it's even more important that canada and european allies are stepping up even more. but i expect the us to agree a package of continued military support — partly because that has been the message i've heard from the us congress in my meetings now over the last days in washington, in brussels, and also in munich. and also, because it is a big majority, that's what they continue to tell me, in the congress for continued support. the senate has already agreed the package, and now the issue is how to make sure that t

well, it is also interesting that nato secretary general jens stoltenberg today, just like yesterday,ed for receiving the nobel peace prize. such a company will be very interesting. he was nominated by the deputy chairman of the liberal party. former minister of culture of this country abid raja and the quote with which he did it: "no one has done more for peace and democracy in europe and the world in the last year than jens stoltenberg. well, let's support this candidacy, okay. and finally, there is such a saying: there are no cities, consider a cripple. from the moscow institute of physics and technology , immediately after the first semester, a student who got into to study there according to the quota, since his father was a so-called veteran of a so-called special military operation, according to the entrance tests, this student scored 127 points, although the passing score for this faculty was 240 with a penny of points, something did not add up in him, something did not grow, no it happened, the poor man did not pull it, in the video that was filmed with him, he said how sorry

when jen stoltenberg, you and i have talked to him many times.is a very dour, serious, unemotional man. the language in his statement shows that he takes this threat seriously. and the other point to be clear is that defense agreements, deterrents aren't just about what's written on paper, they're about credibility. do your adversaries, does russia believe that trump would come to nato's defense, eastern nato partners defense in the event it attacks base on the former president's own comments, russia might calculate, well, maybe they're not going to do that. that's why you're seeing such consistent and serious response. i want to read as well from the european council president's statement. he says they do not bring more security or peace to the world, on the contrary, russia, they reemphasize the need for the eu to further develop its strategic autonomy and invest. we can no longer rely on the u.s. under a potential trump second term to come to our defense. that's a remarkable thing to hear from your own allies. >> absolutely is, jim, thank you

jens stoltenberg, welcome to hardtalk. thank you so much.tin must not win this war. that will be a tragedy for ukrainians, and dangerous for us.

nato secretary general jen stoltenberg is not worried that if elected president of the united statesn the elections in november this year, donald trump will withdraw the united states of america from the north atlantic alliance. he said this in an interview with politico during a visit to washington. where he met with by high-ranking american officials, trying to convince them to resume financial and military aid to ukraine. mr. stoltenberg recalled that he also headed nato when donald trump was the president of the usa, and even then the ex-owner of the white house offered to withdraw the country from this military-political bloc, but at the same time mr. general secretary jan stoltenberg emphasized that trump understands well why this should not be done, further - a quote from stoltenberg. i am sure that washington will remain a faithful ally of nato, which is beneficial for the united states. alliance creates for them a market for the sale of defense products. well, businessman donald trump understands this very well. therefore, talk a little, he will talk, but it is unlikely to l

but today nato secretary general jen stoltenberg, addressing the house of representatives, urged themo do that exactly. it will be much more difficult and will require more than just positive. drove from nato headquarters. now more and more countries of the alliance are spending more on defense. in 2014 , only three countries spent 2% of gdp on it. jen stoltenberg says that by the end of this year, there will be 18 countries out of 31 members of the alliance. obviously, donald trump, who mocked nato members when he was president and appears to be doing the same on the campaign trail, will take some credit for that, but s… the reason countries are focusing on spending that money, lies in what president putin is doing in ukraine. well, it was jonathan beale from brussels, if you're interested in learning more, follow us on social media so you don't miss the most important news. we are on facebook, instagram, tiktok, and also on youtube, you can watch our news broadcasts if you missed them on the air, like, comment, share, we are only happy. well, that 's all for today, more stories on o

nato secretary general jens stoltenberg hopes that after all, the american congressmen will make thision for us. that's what he's about. said during a press conference today before the start of the meeting of defense ministers of nato member countries. this press is this the meeting started today at the headquarters of the alliance. he emphasized that during his last visit to the us in late january, he held several meetings with republican congressmen, persuading them to support the aid package for ukraine. at the same time, he added that he expects this document to pass through the house of representatives. well , he also said a very interesting thing today, just at this press conference, that donald trump always accused, in particular in 2017 and 2018, his nato allies of being too little money is allocated to nato, in all the united states of america is the only one to carry this yoke on their shoulders, giving very, very much money, money that could be used for example for... the americans had time, so today nato secretary general jen stoltenberg said, that this year 18 nato member

let's listen to what nato secretary general jens stoltenberg had to say about this. we are already seeing the consequences of the united states delaying its decision, but i hope that the united states will be able to pass it, and the congress, the house of representatives will approve the continuation of support for ukraine, because if we allow if president putin wins, it will be worse not only for ukrainians, it will be a tragedy for ukrainians, but it will also be dangerous for us, it will make the world more vulnerable, therefore... ukraine is in the interests of our own security. therefore, the importance of continued military support worries not only ukrainian high-ranking officials in kyiv, but also the leaders of other european countries. for example, last week german chancellor olaf scholz visited the united states to persuade american republicans to provide military support to ukraine. and today one of the main goals meetings of defense ministers of the country. brussels to remind the us republicans about the importance of helping ukraine. professor andrew d

ones, janette , trump’s measures, now the united states, in fact , they laid out a menu for jens stoltenberg an outlandish question like... it’s clear that it won’t work out very well, that is there must be an economic and technological engine germany, as we found out, germany is in a weak state, france, well, of course, it must personify nuclear power, and france with nuclear power is not everything, not everything is normal, so this attempt is somehow a copying method, yes, replicating nato in europe is clearly doomed to failure, by the way, it will be very interesting for me... everyone, i think, will watch the results of scholz’s visit, but we will obviously notice that in many ways politics will leave the sphere of real action and become propaganda, so not by chance, but very different people, today we heard from trump and stoltenberg, and the leader of eastern europe, the baltic, the polish, they say, then the third world war, this is just an attempt to replace real actions or real plans, this is the escalation. an attempt, so to speak, to transfer reality into the virtual world, in th

might not step in to protect one of its allies so there's been some serious pushback and yet jen stoltenberg has been keen to point out bianca, and i think this is important that the increased spending that you mentioned that we'll see 18 countries reach their commitment of 2% of gdp being spent on defense, spending. that is independent of the comments were indeed the longstanding gripes. the donald trump we've made when he was president. fact it was 2014 that nato allies had agreed that they would be stepping up their spending and every year for the last nine that has risen, stuff federal jen stoltenberg has pointed out, he's also been speaking bianca as he arrived here to the importance of ongoing support for ukraine i welcome the decision, but european union and to allocate 50 billion euros to, ukraine. and i expect the us congress to agree a package of continued support to ukraine because supporting ukraine is not charity. supporting ukraine is an investment in our own security that we've also been hearing from lloyd austin, the american defense secretary, not physically because he's sti

jens stoltenberg was speaking after kyiv described the situation on the front line as increasingly difficult said he expected congress would eventually approve an aid package. it's being held up by republicans in the lower house. i welcome that nato allies are providing more support, more air defence, more ammunition. i welcome the decision by the european union to allocate 50 billion euros to ukraine, and i expect the us congress to agree a package of continued support to ukraine because supporting ukraine is not charity, supporting ukraine is an investment in our own security. earlier today, we heard from the foreign secretary, lord david cameron. he repeated calls for the us congess to pass a bill that included support for ukraine. we applaud what the eu has already done for ukraine but because of their strength and the power in the world, we really do want to see congress pass that money to support ukraine economically, but crucially, militarily in the months ahead. we saw yet again yesterday in the black sea the huge success that ukraine is having against putin's russia. they have now s

calling for the eu to create its own nuclear arsenal; the security of europe is in good hands usa, jens stoltenberg said. the creation of some parallel nuclear forces by nato allies without the participation of the united states and great britain will not help anyone. the united states in europe doubted after donald trump’s words that only allies who regularly pay washington for it deserve protection. and then they want to completely blame the financing of ukraine on the european union. biden himself did not fly to munich, he sent kamala haris, and she had to pretend that there were no problems. our commitment to building and preserving. alliances helped america become the world's most powerful and prosperous nation, these alliances have prevented war, protected freedom, and maintained stability from europe to the indo-pacific. however , the blissful atmosphere that kharis tried to create was destroyed by the us secretary of state, and anthony blinken spoke almost like trump, but introduced a gastronomic note, speaking in the spirit of: “whoever is not with us, we are ready to eat him whole.” we se

this was stated by alliance secretary general jens stoltenberg following the summit of the bloc's defenseich was held in brussels. at the same time, the meeting participants made it clear that help is not a gesture of goodwill. in return from kiev was demanded to fight to the last for the safety of the entire old world. sergei kholoshevsky about the results of the summit. the west will provide kiev with air and missile defense systems, and also plans to supply ukraine with a million drones. in addition, a training center will be opened in poland to train ukrainian soldiers. at this center, ukrainian military personnel will be able to share lessons learned during events in ukraine. the summit of nato defense ministers in brussels ended as expected with vows of support for ukraine. home they learned the nato phrase spell faster than anyone else. beginners, finns. support for ukraine must remain strong for as long as necessary. frightened by hypothetical russian aggression, the baltic states and scandinavia are already digging trenches along the perimeter of the border, their ministers in br

jens stoltenberg was quite happy because suddenly billions of dollars was coming over to help fund its. >> well, and i'll say that i will absolutely put the hammer on our nato countries that they do have to carry their weight. but you do that behind closed doors. you let them know that the united states is not going to carry the burden. you don't do it in the eyes of our enemies. right now nato has been a 75-year success story. we haven't had war in the region because they've stood so strong. russia's actually very intimidated by nato. china's intimidated by nato. but the one thing we don't do is we don't leave our brothers and sisters who make us strong. with we don't separate ourselves from our friends in the name of trying to appease an enemy. that's what the europeans did, and that's what's gotten them into this situation in the first place, is they tried to appease russia. instead we should be strong about russia, we should make sure we tell our partners it's in their best interests and the alliance's best interests to pull their own weight, and we should make them do that. there'

we have jens stoltenberg in this room and you can ask him when we are going to join nato. i think that's going to be a fair thing to do. to make sure that ukraine is becoming close to alliance. we understand that not all countries are supportive of that. that's the decision of the alliance and not countries supportive of that yet. our expectations, well, anyway, we expect a strengthening of our relations -- with respect to weapons and packages of weapons, air defense in particular. i think at this stage that is probably the most critical thing for us. especially when it comes from these states that still hesitate when they invite us to join nato or not. >> thank you for your time

the head of nato, jens stoltenberg, has warned that the delay in approving new us military aid to ukrainehaving an impact on the battlefield. he said he expected congress to eventually approve the aid package because a russian victory was not in us interests. let's hear some of what he had to say. the united states being by far the biggest ally, of course it's vital that that continue to provide support, and therefore i continue to expect that they will be able to make a decision, hopefully as soon as possible. in the past couple of hours, the german government has announced that chancellor olaf scholz and ukraine's president are to sign a bilateral security pact on friday. volodymyr zelensky will be in berlin for the signing. but on the ground in ukraine, russian forces appear close to surrounding what's left of the front line town of avdiivka in the donetsk region after months of heavy fighting there. ukraine's army is struggling with a shortage of ammunition and other military supplies. the bbc�*s andrew harding reports ukrainian tanks heading into battle. we are close to the russian l

can say from yes. it is said that the first fighter jets may already be in ukraine this summer, jen stoltenbergtant statement, he admitted that ukraine can hit targets in russia, what do you expect if ukraine gets fighter jets, how radically will it change, change war? well, i will start by saying that i will disappoint those who live in a fairy tale world. only in a fairy-tale world there is any, it doesn't matter, f-16, atkams, taurus. but only in the fairy-tale world there is such a thing wunderwaffe, which alone can turn the tide of such a large-scale war, but no single type of weapon can turn the tide of such a large-scale war, this does not mean that it is not necessary, the fact is that it is simply not about a turning point, but it is about, you know, it like the slides that are placed on terez shawls, there are slides that are placed on the russian teres shawl, and there are slides that are placed on our shawl, and it will be a very heavy, very serious slide on our shawl. she she strongly sways actually these libras in our direction, more specifically, well, first of all, let's start w

jens stoltenberg. but he did it in the context of ukraine, answering a question about whether the activation of the russian army in ukraine, as well as the death of a russian oppositionist, could somehow affect the acceleration of financial assistance to kyiv, mr. secretary general of the north atlantic alliance answered: what exactly, we are listening in direct speech. at least these two events demonstrate the urgency. it is necessary to support ukraine, partly to prevent further russian gains, and at the same time to give ukraine the opportunity to liberate more territory. i'm deep convinced that the best... way to honor the memory of oleksii navalny is to ensure that president putin did not win on the battlefield, but that ukraine did. very good advice, respect navalny, give money so that ukraine wins and putin loses. it is simply impossible to create a european army now, because there is no chance of uniting the armed forces of the member states of the european union. the minister of foreign affairs of the commonwealth of independent states, radoslav sikorsky, said this on the air of the

on the destruction of another russian military ship in the black sea, nato secretary general jen stoltenberged that the expulsion of the black sea fleet of the russian federation from the western part of the black sea... a great achievement and a great victory for the ukrainians, and according to intelligence, most of the crew of this large amphibious ship, which was destroyed in the black sea, could not be saved, representative of the main intelligence department of the ministry of defense andriy yusov said about this, everything went according to plan, as a result, the enemy ship was destroyed and it cannot be restored, along with the cargo there was ammunition, and how many people died there. it is not known for sure yet.

nato's secretary general, jens stoltenberg, said any attack on nato would be met with a united and forcefulhile the white house condemned the former president's comments as "appalling and unhinged". nato countries are supposed to spend 2% of their gdp on defence, but not all do. at a campaign rally in south carolina, mr trump said he wouldn't defend nato members who don't meet their financial obligations to the alliance. nato was busted until i came along. i said, everybody�*s got to pay. they said, if we don't pay, are you still going to protect us? i said absolutely not. they couldn't believe the answer. they asked me that question, one of the presidents of a big country stood up and said, "well, sir, if we don't pay and we are attacked by russia, will you protect us?" i said, "you didn't pay, you're delinquent?" he said, "yes, let's say that happened."
