olaf schultz spoke about nate's _ white house.sidents come and go bit we trust in this long—term partnership, so what they are not saying in public is we are really worried about a potential president try returned to the white house, but when i speak to officials here in berlin they are certainly doing some contingency planning around how to, as they would put it and it was mentioned there, strengthen the european pillar of the nato military alliance. and part of that is, as we have seen, more defence spending. there seems to be public recognition now from mr sunak and mr scholz that europe needs to do more after complaints notjust europe needs to do more after complaints not just from europe needs to do more after complaints notjust from donald trump, although maybe he is the most vocalin trump, although maybe he is the most vocal in the way he goes about it, but complaints from other us presidents in the past as well that they felt europe was not spending enough on defence and leader is now saying that needs to change.- saying t

exercise restraint as concerns grow of a wider conflict in the middle east. german chancellor, olaf schultz is on a high profile state visit to china. but now that has been overshadowed by the risk of a large scale escalation in the middle east show, strongly condemned, runs as strikes. this was the very brutally randy and a tech. it was unprecedented. and it was the 1st time that they used to besides to go directly against the israeli state. this is unacceptable. but echoing on the west and calls the caution, the chancellor also urged israel to de escalate the situation. back in germany, the opposition christian democrats, said berlin should be ready to put its money where its mouth is. when it comes to support for israel. this is why it is asking for and i'm and, and i'm your mission from germany. germany should stay to its commitment and deliver weapons to it. so to make sure that it's where it is able to defend itself. germans are watching developments in the region. we've consent to go to worry about it, but i try not to think about it too much. room for 6 are sticking to know that. so

olaf schultz of germany, putin has no right to kant, because russian politics contradicts his ideas,d the german embassy in moscow hung a huge poster for the anniversary, in general, it hurt. our guest is andrey teslya, he is not just an excellent specialist in the history of philosophy, but... he belongs to the world heritage, national treasure, this, by the way, is a very interesting question, because, for example, in the logics of history, philosophy of the 19th century, so nationalized, what we maybe familiar, this is a story about the construction of national philosophical schools, and not only in the current time, yes, but also looking into the past, where they begin to say that leibniz is not only part of the rational tradition, he is not only a philosopher xvi century, but this is the first big one. conophilosophy played a significant role for , well, some kind of state self-determination, especially with regard to the now pressing issue of relations with europe. georgy florovsky is one of the outstanding historians of the russian intellectual tradition, he generally said tha

olaf schultz struggling that off, saying american presidents have always talked about this sort of thingrily publicly voice on events like this, that if donald trump were to be elected again to the white house, given the things he has said in the past this could undermine the nato military alliance and the idea of mutual defence. that is the concern. when asked about it in public as you say leaders, and i have asked this before, they tend to just say, the nato military alliance is very long—standing and lots of us presidents come and go but this has been a long—standing relationship and we have faith that relationship will continue, but officials i have spoken to are also clear that behind—the—scenes conversations are going on and they did kind of address it in that press conference about what europe leads to do to strengthen what is called a european pillar of nato, so strengthening european defence, strengthening the industrial base and spending more, in order and this is something that french president emanuel macron has been talking about right long time, if somehow us support was no

both sides for restraint, where even any sparks and even whiter likes and of german chancellor, olaf schultz says he asked of china as children peg to use his influence in moscow to help bring rushes for print. when at the chancellor's comments came at the end of a 3 day visit to china, which was largely focused on improving economic cooperation between china and euro . and is there any update at all for me? for now? i am clare richardson for atlanta for me in the whole team. thank you so much for watching the or the a new crew that caused the commission lifesavers in the mediterranean. there's the punk faces. it's 1st big challenge of both refugees who are on the verge of just the next. on d, w. using the digital 20 to say we've own factory, the 50 year old siemens planned the moon by was on the brink of closing. then new digital technology was used to keep it running. model projects being copied around the were made in germany in 60 minutes on d, w. the dig also in the video companies play a role in the destruction of the rain forest. i have categories all over brazilian we process the $30

the german chancellor, olaf schultz at the airport in bay jake. they sent the deputy mayor of bays yang to meet with the mayors are really important. michael maloof joins us as well. michael, to the idea that we would create a scenario where the weapons that you and i pay for with our taxes are being used to kill civilians and russia is not something i ever thought that i would see in my lifetime. and it scares the hell out of me, shouldn't it? yes, we shouldn't even be involved. but given the politics and, and they have a lucian of where we are today, you can see why that's happening. why we're also now deeply involved in another term while in the middle east. i think one of the, uh, zalinski is problems. is that so much is of the of us ordinance now is going to israel and not to him. yeah. but is it but, but my point is this, and it's a fine one. is this not a bridge too far? i mean, it's one thing to support ukraine and say, we're going to give you money. so you can defend yourself against an invasion from russia to another thing to say, we're

already overnight had a condemnation of a wrong retard free attack from canada, from germany's olaf schultz from the us from the u. s. do you think if the western powers had been that strong? when is well attacked, a diplomatic mission, a wrong diplomatic mission in syria? the all of this could have been avoided because a wrong would have seen that the west was playing fi. well, that is part of that. um, but i do believe that they could have stopped the console that attack altogether. at least the united states definitely cut off and there were free, separate attacks on iranians inside of syria. it's a violation of the syrian sovereignty, a violation of the ronnie. and so pretty, in this case, at a direct attack on iranian soil. this is a major international incident, and this breaks full norms in international politics. and so the fact that they didn't condemn it. the fact that this was brought before the united nations security council and the united states made sure that nothing came of that. it was inevitably going to lead to the a ronnie and response. they literally had no other option
