it is part, to an extent it is part of minsk but not in its whole comprehensivity, so to say. therefore we as ukrainians, the government are the president, we are very much determined to deliver on our part of the -- delivering on minsk accords and to fulfill all of the commitments we've undertaken upon ourselves. however, all discussions and all this political decisions that have to be taken by ukraine, they might be discussed with -- within the ukrainian society only after we have on the ground securitizeation that would provide for that, that would allow us to think further, to -- that would allow us to make sure that people are not dying every single day on the line between ukraine and basically russian forces sending on our territory. when we have also the exchange of all the hostages that are illegally detained and also on the russian territory, such political prisoners. when we have at least humanitarian organizations having access to that territory. the only humanitarian access right now -- organization right now that has access is red cross. cannot get to those territ

italy to discuss with president petro poroshenko of ukraine about the situation in ukraine and the minskeement between ukraine and russia to try to bring about an end of the tensions in the east of ukraine and allow ukraine to control its borders, its own international borders all the way along the border with russia. so a lot to get through here before president obama then moves on. now not to seville but to madrid allowing him to cut short this trip returning back to washington late, late sunday. natalie? >> yes. his last trip to europe as president. all right. nic robertson for us there in warsaw. thank you. >>> a super typhoon has been downgraded now to a tropical storm as it moves from taiwan toward china. before it weakened the typhoon killed at least three people and injured more than 140. the storm battered taiwan's eastern coast, leaving a path of destruction as it swept the shore. more than 16,000 people forced to leave their homes in that one. >>> ahead here, the dallas police chief says he is heartbroken over the ambush that killed five of his officers. he's endured some pers

united in our view that there can be no business as usual with russia until it fully implements its minskations. nato will do more also to fight against terrorist networks. every alley already contributes to the campaign dwens isil. now, they'll continue aircraft to improve intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance against isil. nato training of iraqi security forces run in jordan, will move to iraq, where they can be even more effective and building on my decision to largely maintain the current u.s. troop presence in afghanistan into next year, 39 nations including the u.s. have committed more than 12,000 troops to nato's training mission. and in addition, some 30 nations have pledged upwards of $900 million to help sustain afghan forces. which is a very strong message of our enduringing commitment to afghanistan. we're bolsters our efforts on nato's southern flank. the alliance will increase our support to eu naval operations in the mediterranean, to stop arms traffickers and go after criminal exploiting desperate migrants and we're going to do more to help partners from north afri

maybe, in my opinion, it would be better to elaborate something like minsk agreement because i am convinced this was not advantage for us. it was not tailored for ukraine. it was maybe more tailored for russia. and that's maybe to fulfill this condition and this -- it's maybe most complicated for us. and now maybe you know there is some attempt to solve now this military conditions first and then to create room through political solutions and decisions in kiev. there is some roadmap, yes, now, but i can't tell you how -- what we can expect there is really a chance to change something. maybe to create something like more sequenced agreement and more relation also for us and the ukrainian government. but it's very tough, and i hope that we will be able to keep this united position in opposite it would be ridiculous, yes? to lift sanction now without any concrete step from russian side, it seems to be impossible. it's very shortly, but it is my position and it is also a very tough question. >> charles from johns hopkins university. very nice to see you again, sir. i appreciated your refreshing

commitment to maintaining sanctions on russia until they fully implement its obligations under the minsk agreements. and with presidents tusk and juncker, set to attend today's north atlantic council meeting, we have an opportunity to deepen security cooperation between nato and the eu. we also agree that, on both sides of the atlantic, we have to address economic frustrations and anxieties of many of our people, feelings that undoubtedly contributed to the brexit vote -- fears that they're being left behind by globalization and economic integration. our governments, including the eu, cannot be remote institutions; they have to be responsive and move more quickly, with minimal bureaucracy, to deliver real economic progress in the lives of ordinary people. in particular, we discussed the importance of public investments -- like infrastructure, education, innovation and security -- to stimulate growth and job training to help reduce inequality and unemployment, especially for young people here in europe. that's been the right thing to do for years, both for the long term and the short term

united in our view that there can be no business as usual in russia until it fully implements its minskbligation. nato will do more also to fight against terrorist networks. every ally already contributed to the campaign against isil. now the alliance will contribute aircraft to improve our reconaissance against isil. nato training of iraqi security forces will move to iraq where they can be more effective. to maintain the troops in afghanistan, 39 nations including the u.s. have committed more than 12,000 troops to nato's training mission. and in addition, some 30 nations have pledged up towards of $900 million to help sustain afghan forces, which is a strong message to afghanistan. we're bolstering our efforts on nato's southern flank. the alliance will increase our support to e.u. naval operations to stop arms traffickers and go after criminals that are exploiting desperate migrants . and we're going to do more to help partners from north africa to the middle east to georgia strengthen their own defense capacity. and finally after many years, nato has stopped the collective decline i

i hope we will be able to way.nue in similar in my opinion it may be better something like minsk threegood for us. maybe to fulfill this condition, maybe most complicated for there is someow attempt to solve military conditions and then to create to political solutions in .iev but i can't tell you how -- what we can expect is really chance maybe to something and create something like more agreement and moderation for us and the it'snian government but very tough and i hope that we keep this right position. in opposite, it will be to liftus, yes, sanctions now without any concrete step from russian side, me impossible. position. charles from johns hopkins university. to see you again, sir. i appreciated your refreshingly comments, particularly about the united states, but on other issues, as well, so i'm going to ask ask you a refreshingly candid question, as well. and the question has to do with on your very deeply pro-european and pro-western approach to the world and the nature of czech liberal democracy. the question is this. as in other democracies, there forces that do not support

invasion and , that they mayea countenance the dissolution of sanctions when russia has not abided by the minskment, that is deeply counterproductive and harmful to our interests today, let alone what happens in the future. that might be a good segue to contrast this with secretary clinton. this is also about russia not wanting clinton. know that this is a secretary with a lot of it.'s in building international coalitions of sanctions, as she did in sanctioning iran. she is very capable of holding those coalitions together. she has taken a strong position on russia. she did make outreach to see if we could reset relations. when it was clear that was not were putin wanted to go, she was a forceful adversary. mesha -- as much as russia are want to run, they afraid of secretary clinton coming to the white house. sen. coons: money suggest another analogy -- let me suggest another analogy. begins ainess official meeting by saying predictability is the one thing we come out of government. businesspeople say, we want predictability. successful business people build business strategies on predictabilit
