pistorius met with representatives from the germans arms industry in delhi.n there plans to invest more than 5 billion euros in modern easing its submarine fleet -- modernizing its submarine fleet. germany's defense minister has shown support for chester jail -- for such a deal. >> negotiations are ongoing and the german arms industry is well-placed in this race. the point is a signal be german government supports it too, as part. reporter: is one of the world's largest armies. india has traditionally been heavily dependent on german arms suppliers, but this could reduce dependence in the long run. nicole: you're watching "dw news." still to come, we take you to the rim of an active volcano, a place some people say brings good luck. but first, you have to get there. the past few months have seen increased diplomatic activity between japan and south korea. on a scale not seen in years. the south korean president and japanese prime minister have exchanged visits and senior offense -- defense officials met last week in singaporem diplomatic engagement that appea

boris pistorius is holding talks with his american opposite, lloyd austin. this comes before the next nato summit in lithuania. stories reiterated germany's support for ukraine and other eastern european states. >> we will do everything that is possible as long as it takes to support ukraine with this horrible war against russia. we used to be the eastern flank at one time. and nowadays the baltic states are the new eastern flank. so we have especially -- a special response will take for the protection of the eastern flank. therefore i am sending it everything and working for the support of ukraine and the security of the eastern european countries. nicole: our correspondent stefan simons joins us from washington and has more. surely everybody had lots of talk about, what is in their agenda? >> two. that's just the knock -- plenty, that is just the inaugural visit. he had to cancel one that he originally planned in april. one way or another, he is talking to lloyd austin, the secretary here in the united states and as you mentioned already, there's plenty to

everyone knows what it means they don’t know, so what this pistorius is forced to do now. had little idea of ​​a german with the surname pistorius, well, somehow, after all, before the germans went, they are now forced to give them. well, promise at least one leopard tanks. well, listen to that too. well, then they all giggled when they saw somewhere in our volunteers e. tank t-62. in general, a modernized leopard is one, no matter what atom it is, this is it. a poor copy of the t-62 m. that's all, that's why well, it turned out badly, well, we'll wait and see. so, probably fast. now, as for the course of the special military operation, all sorts of flaming ones there. goes not the first preliminary stage of this big battle. the most important battle of this year which is what they are trying with their advance troops. overcome our security lane, well it's half. where we are actively defending is not positional active defense. why are we so successful? intend avoiding other epithets very successfully talks about it relationship lost talks about it, uh, hmm the pace and dep

pistorius a little mad, and we understand, we share emotions, he said, tell the ukrainians from buchi about non-violent methods of struggle. and by the way, there was another priest from a protestant church who visited buch. he says, you know, when i went to ukraine, my view changed a little. i realized that i have to give everything for help. because it is about the life and death of ukrainians, but not the sit-in protest against the british colonizers, how many there are, this is not the story, we are not conquered by the british, the words were such a story, but in general, something is happening with the catholic church, bergholia, a communist in germany, some buddhists occupied a church in poland, it has already been said some orthodox catholic er fundamentalists in a word it's time to do the third er vatican cathedral they live peacefully they can be invited to this point to oksana korchynska bless confess and to receive communion, as they did from melitopol, the priest of the military and military medics , and maybe then their impression of non-violent methods of combating russ

where she goes, because already pistorius he meets there a certain resistance from military circles.and the general spectrum of the bundeswehr. not so long ago, a bid was sent. that is, they are now reconsidering their understanding and purpose of the subsector. so you said about hmm declared ambitions. at least in words, now everything is very clear for the united states. for them. uh, main tvd site, the future is the pacific ocean. china and nato are creepingly trying to introduce it there, although it is not very clear. as specifically, germany stated that yes, they also have security interests there. can we expect that they will somehow manifest themselves in that region militarily , it is difficult to say, although germany has a department. these are documents related to the region and indepacific. uh-huh yes official, they say there, but whether the military arm of germany will get there is hard to say, but there is something to get something, and not really they know very well, mmm, how to show their merit that they are present in malia and are conducting a peacekeeping operat

resistance should be done to ukrainians and not to demand even more weapons well , even the calm pistoriusto this that you will tell the ukrainians from buchi but i thought about where it comes from, for example , i went to the german catholic bishops especially on twitter to see what our esteemed holy pope, uh, pope francis writes. and i scrolled through the entire wind until april , he writes several sentences every day, and in principle, there are from greece, myam, bangladesh , hungarian bilavit people, a lot of all kinds of worms gomenytsia and so on and so on. it seems that this is to remove only all mentions of christ and the holy spirit. in principle , i can think that this is some kind of twitter. i don't know the organization of the united nations or even the ministry of culture of ukraine. there is a lack of some basic education to distinguish even the categories of freedom and equality, this is another story, but mr. what to do with it, this is a colossal challenge that christianity received in general, not only the roman catholic church, or our churches there, but the challeng

it is not legal in pumping kiev with german weapons, pistorius does not see anything illegal.nding to the claims of berlinovka , beijing clearly stated bad jokes, some states unilaterally impose sanctions and threaten weapons everywhere, stage color revolutions and proxies. warriors. everything, destroying , washing their hands, leaves behind chaos. we must not allow them to repeat a similar scenario in the asia-pacific. region between which more and more experts believe that such games of allies will destroy ukraine watch. there will simply be no future, the militants are no longer in what they do not believe. right now the budget is enough. and what revenues the government is eating up all the money that is sent to us from the united states, all of us and our children will give us ukrainians. just destroy we do not need such power. let's do something. former us intelligence officer from q3 declared the secret hatred of the west to zelensky. and the military expert called the hope of ukraine to join nato frankly unrealizable, according to ritter, who at one time was an arms e

soon as possible, although yesterday during rammstein, the minister of defense of germany, boris pistoriusid that nato can remove some obstacles on ukraine's path to membership. we are talking about the possibility of our country joining the alliance under a simplified procedure. let's listen to what the german minister of defense said. now we must focus on ukraine being able to win this war and oust the russians. troops from the country, for this we need all possible military support, and right now this is the focus of mr. valery's attention . recently, although in this matter, there is a consensus that ukraine does not need to go the way we applied in 2008 for the action plan for membership , that is, finland and sweden showed that it is possible to go the other way, well, in fact, they are willing and not to do it. some intermediate ones of these additional preparatory programs, so the conversation is as impressive as in washington . in this regard, president joseph biden was productive there. the decision was made by the prime minister of britain and at the next meetings, in my opinion

volunteer corps and the freedom of russia, today they asked the minister of defense of germany, boris pistoriuss about the use of weapons from partners on the territory of russia. he said that germany and the united states of america do not recommend doing this , but we will hear what the minister said defense of the federal republic of germany, i absolutely trust our ukrainian partners. i always emphasize that international law allows ukraine to use weapons on the territory of russia, but on the other hand, germany and the usa, for example, have always emphasized that we do not want our weapons to be used to cross the russian border. so this is a difference in positions. i have no signals that ukraine is not a reliable partner in this matter, too. i tell my partners in asia that a cease-fire does not mean only that russia must end its aggression, that russia is getting away with its aggression, there are two countries that can end this war, the first is russia, a simple withdrawal of russian troops from ukraine would end the war in an instant, but the cessation of arms supplies to ukraine woul

and bradley armored vehicles by the ukrainians, at the same time, german defense minister boris pistorius said that we cannot replace every lost tank, but we will increase the supply of leopards to ukraine alone. this means that the world will not leave ukraine alone with russia, these supplies of military equipment and weapons will be to continue putin already putin is talking about the fact that ukraine simply provoked russia into war and he repeated several times today at meetings with his chickens that we did not start this this is a conflict. the ukrainians started this war . although of course he lies like a breather and uh, putin started this war against ukraine . to the capture of ukraine yes yes i was not mistaken we are talking about the twenty-year preparation of the russian federation for war with ukraine we remember that with the coming of vladimir putin to power in russia , a major political crisis unfolded and unfolded in ukraine, it was connected with the murder of our fellow journalist giorhii gongadze at that time when the ukrainian state was taking steps towards europea

attention to everything that scholz and borius pistorius says, they became somehow zealous.h, in principle, to perform a certain function, which before that was, it seems, like the british, it seems, as always, the americans are behind this. and now here are 4,000 military personnel. they want to place nato on the eastern flag on a permanent basis, and we are talking about a comprehensive act between russia and nato, which, in principle, ordered a long life, a comprehensive act on nato , including the non-deployment of a non-deployment contingent nuclear e, installations of any type of weapons. and in principle, the discussion that it is linen is a violation. actually. this is a test pen. moreover , it is precisely from the mouth of the minister of defense of the federal republic of germany, because the next step is just after the placement on a permanent basis. this is the deployment of nuclear weapons. everything ends there. europe's security architecture is a thankless function ; more than one german defense minister blew himself up in such political games, he seems to li

soon as possible, although yesterday during rammstein, the minister of defense of uh, germany boris pistorius said that nato can remove some obstacles on ukraine's path to membership, it is about the possibility of our country joining the alliance under a simplified procedure , let's listen to what the german minister of defense said. the country needs all possible military support for this, and this is what mr. valery is currently focusing on . if we talk about the procedures, it seems that lately, although in this matter, there is a consensus that ukraine does not need to go the way we applied in 2008, the action plan for membership, that is, then finland and sweden showed that it is possible to go the other way . in fact, on readiness and not to do any additional preparatory programs, so the conversation is such an impression . in this regard , president joseph biden was productive in washington, there the decision was made by the prime minister of britain and at the next meetings in my opinion, at least in this regard, nato already has a consensus on such a simplified, faster , less burea

atlantic alliance, although yesterday during rammstein the minister of defense of germany, boris pistoriussaid that nato can remove some obstacles on ukraine's path to membership, it is about the possibility of our country joining the alliance under a simplified procedure, let's listen to what the minister said defense of germany. now we must focus on ukraine being able to win this war and push russian troops out of the country, for this we need all possible military support, and at the moment this is exactly what mr. valery is in the focus of attention as much as possible to simplify the procedure that already exists and in what way we can become members of nato even before the end of the war. if we talk about procedures, it seems that lately, although in this matter, there is a consensus that ukraine does not need to go the way that we applied for in 2008, the action plan regarding membership, i.e. further, finland and sweden showed that it is possible to go the other way, well, in fact , according to readiness and not to do any intermediate or additional preparatory programs, so , well,

end of 2023, will be extremely important and decisive for ukraine , german defense minister boris pistoriusn an interview with the german tv channel cd, he emphasized because, taking into account the level of support for ukraine from the western countries, it is necessary to bet on a successful counteroffensive of the armed forces of ukraine, for here everything will fall into place after which everything will fall into place. his government provides to ukraine will be long-lasting , well, i would really like it to be short and long, so that this victory is ours as soon as possible, but it inspires hope that everyone abroad constantly says that even after the end of this war, the leaders of the western countries will try to find some options to secure us from repeated encroachment by such inadequate neighbors on our sovereignty and independence, the west has joined a united front against any other country that would like to protect its own national interests, as russia did it, the minister of foreign affairs of russia, sergey lavrov, said in an interview in the bolshaya igra program, a frag

promised to give us 64 guided missiles for air defense, according to the minister of defense boris pistorius, they will provided immediately tetyana vagonovych frolov details german bureau of tv channel intermarathon only news russians do not stop shelling kherson and on the day two people were injured as a result of another attack they were in the yard of a residential building when an enemy mine landed , the regional administration reported an elderly woman and a young man in serious condition student volunteers from rivne who helped residents of the flooded districts of kherson were also injured. they were injured in the courtyard of a high-rise building, and a tornado formed in the building. the windows flew out, grandma, it's good that she drove by, i called 103, we decided that soon one passed the yard, injured a woman, but the woman lived, and slava, i don't know what will happen to him in the meantime , ukrainian military rescue volunteers continue to help the affected residents of kherson and the region, they will tell about the operational situation in the region my colleagues from

damaged or destroyed during the russian war in ukraine commented the minister of defense country boris pistoriusd not try to replace every tank that is now failing on the battlefield , it would not be able to, but at the same time, the head of the german ministry of defense assured that already in july, berlin will start sending repaired leopard 1a5 tanks to ukraine, and by the end of the year there will be 100 of them. well, next is a short quote from the minister, unfortunately part of the nature of war is that weapons and tanks are destroyed and people die, that's why our support for ukraine is so important well, this is really very important for us, because after the announcement that, well, there are indeed some losses on the ukrainian side of these 100 tanks , the supply of which will be delayed there , maybe even for six months, but such announcements are very important because europe she continues to help us, she understands that she must win with us here in ukraine, at the moment i read a fighter who took part in that battle , the video of which was seen by everyone there, where the leo

i'm talking about pistorius and death.boris's story with and the death of the paradigm, by the way, someone said i liked it myself. yes , that's how it is, so look, i'm not arguing with colleagues, but rather trying to look at e. it's a little on the other side. but on the other side, which, for that is, the western border is so. the paradigm shift, about which pistorius speaks, may not be related to what is happening here and so to the words about what else we will wait, let's see what happens, they cannot behave like this in military strategies. yeah , we'll wait, and then we'll calculate the options, what can happen, they'll wait, what happens, because a nuclear bomb can happen on the head, therefore they consider ours to be considered and the enemy considers us in the most careful way and the paradigm shift is connected with the fact that they will meet with that one, they themselves have meetings with that nato themselves that will happen in july, about which the potion threw occasional tantrums. he promises not to co

their lined skeletons were found after repulsing the attack, but the german minister of defense pistoriusable partner of germany, for example, the united states has always emphasized that we do not want our weapons to be used to cross the russian border. and i am absolutely sure, because i have no signals to the contrary. what? and a reliable partner, that is you can send drones to russian territory. can you send planes? no, let's not be too picky about this. now is not the time and place to make comments about what is possible now or not, what about the german taurus cruise missiles, whether ukraine will receive them at the moment, and we are not thinking about it. but now berlin is thinking that it can take part in the supply of f-16s to ukraine , despite the fact that not only western equipment, but also manpower from nato countries in the first place participated in the attack on russia the turn of the polish mercenaries curator along the line. polish special services stanislav zharyn denied the involvement of the polish authorities, however, he immediately received a portion of uncom

boris pistorius once again began to comment on the footage of objective control from our ministry offirming the destruction of tracked vehicles with crosses on board. however, now they can be seen in detail on the video of the fighters themselves on the front line. leopard oh, their two techniques work. this is bradley's failure of the offensive contour strenuously trying to explain the western press business, an insider. he writes that the ukrainian troops did not have enough aviation in the form of f-16s to organize air support , the allies themselves represented by france, germany and poland in the format of the weimer triangle on the eve agreed that the active phase of the battles is still ahead and, according to macron. the americano conservative magazine will last at least a few months, and the new biden doctrine, which can lead to the death of all ukrainians, the white house is introducing an extremely beneficial model of endless war for the united states in order to survive as much as possible from the armed conflict that other peoples die. well, washington sells them all ref

and now his defense minister boris pistorius.says that germany can take part, what has changed in the views of berlin and what contribution can germany make, given that she herself does not have f-16. i think that germany can participate in training in various ways ukrainian pilots. for example, provide honey. it contains simulators and other means of training pilots. on the ground, germany can also certainly provide ammunition for the f-16, when these aircraft are sent to ukraine they can provide. financial assistance, which will go to the costs associated with the transfer of these aircraft. well, i agree with the german chancellor that german fighters are not very suitable for the tasks that the ukrainians want to perform on them. how much impact will the f-16 or similar fighters have on the situation on the battlefield, the main the task of the f-16 is to intercept russian cruise and ballistic missile drones. they will also force russian aircraft to stay away from ukraine they will also provide support to ukrainian ground for

it is also increasing military assistance to kiev, however, according to german defense minister pistoriust will not be able to replace the ukrainians with every destroyed cleopard tank, they hoped that the ryan metal concern would supply a new car and its own reserves, but the head of the company refused to change. the role in the decision was played by the cadres of harry's german tanks in the bundestag burning on the battlefield, there are proposals to help the ukrainians fight the russians in the air and they are already talking about providing ukrainian aircraft with german airfields so that they can take off with him for an attack, not that we could put we don't fly the f-16, but we germans can put at the disposal of our military airfields. or what the luftwaffe can do when the american fighters themselves will definitely put kiev in it is still too early to say the head of the general staff. us march miles, ah journalists report at the pentagon are already discussing the transfer of f-16 with the possibility of carrying nuclear warheads. in the meantime, britain has announced additi

in general, i still had little idea of ​​a german with the surname pistorius, well, somehow, yes , thew they are forced to give them. well, promise tanks anyway one leopard. well, listen to that too. well, then they all giggled when they saw somewhere in our volunteers e. tank t-62. in general, there is only one modernized leopard. whatever atom it is, this is it. a poor copy of the t-62 m. that's all, then, uh, so well, the hegemot is doing badly. this is the hegemon. you understand, it turned out to be full of holes, well, we will wait and see not everything, not everything. so, probably fast. now what concerns the course of the special operation to represent. eh, well , step back a bit from funny pictures with all sorts of blazing there, but imported pieces of iron. this is not the first preliminary stage of this great battle. the most important battle of this year which is what they are trying with their advance troops. overcome our security lane. well, it's military. where we are actively defending non-positional active defense, and we are doing it very successfully. deliberately

and when germany remains is not yet participating in this coalition, but minister of defense boris pistoriustion in in the future, i just took part in a meeting with several prime ministers and president zelensky we will help ukraine train their pilots to fly the f-16 ger also can definitely provide ammunition for the f-16, when these planes go to ukraine they can also provide financial assistance , which will go to the costs associated with the transfer of these aircraft. well, i agree with the german chancellor that german fighters are not very suitable for the tasks that the ukrainians want to perform on them, the main task of the f-16 is to intercept russian winged and ballistic missile drones. they will also force russian aircraft to stay away from ukraine they will also provide support to the ukrainian ground forces as they maneuver to liberate territories but more importantly, stocks of soviet components and ammunition for the ukrainian air force are depleted this is a strong political signal from the outside allies of ukraine who says they will support ukraine for as long as it takes

uh, a pistorius statement. really. he says we trust ukraine and we don't mind if they use it., they are not disingenuous. this is none. this is an internal political struggle. it's not some as we like to say elective technologies. no, they openly voice their strategy, by the way, let me remind you that the idea of ​​undermining critical infrastructure facilities was discussed in the western press last fall. it's just that for some reason we didn't want to believe it again, or didn't believe it, or didn't want to believe it, instead of clearly and calmly reading and understanding the statement of our opponents. i think that even our main problem is not some kind of political, but, let’s say , over-piping, and the problem we have is that for some reason we don’t fully believe that our opponents are ready to go on let's say. so tough military world measures they are ready, so many of us, when they read, think, yes, maybe they are joking, maybe this is done for press statements. maybe it's a statement for an internal audience. no they openly proclaimed. shayut their strategy and o

nato said so, minister of defense pistorius.igozhin’s presence in belarus is for western countries for ukraine how many mercenaries will follow him in belarus ? is a strong cause for concern. the leader of the group was created in belarus after a brief uprising. the president of belarus has invited prigozhin's mercenaries to follow the leader, which has caused alarm among neighbors with many western intelligence agencies trying to figure out if this is vladimir putin's plan to launch? now let's talk about the hegemon, who still wants to destroy us, old man joe has strange dents on his face. they say it doesn't seem to be muzzle marks for the sexy ones, oh what all american perverts immediately thought. we even made a photo of a toad, see for yourself here with such a gag in his mouth, so the opinion is that the president of the united states is sleeping, but now let's seriously ask questions about what sounded with the face of bytes even at a briefing in the white house, it turns out that the president of america stops breathing

ukraine was given a million by the minister of defense of the country, pistorius, trying to shove zelensky inextricably linked with the theme of production, supply and repair of weapons, so i am happy to visit this gap together with the nato secretary general, the performance of this company is a wet contribution to support ukraine leopard may be old, but they are still sons according to russian ukrainian defense ministry. the army lost over 180 tanks, including german leopards of the french aich, here and about 400 armored vehicles, including bradley and strike, the morale of their people, the ukrainian authorities did not want to admit that even a successful counter-offensive will result in heavy casualties and many thousands of people will be injured. the pentagon announces a new large-scale package of military assistance to kiev , the us secretary of state said, damn it, the content of the supplies was not disclosed. but ukraine already has all the necessary weapons for the offensive . what is the pentagon's assessment of how the counteroffensive in ukraine is progressing? maybe some w

ukraine was handed over a million by the minister of defense of the country, pistorius is trying to shovert is inextricably linked with the theme production of supply and repair of weapons, so i am happy to visit this ge, together with the nato secretary general, this company's performance is a wet contribution to support ukraine leopard-1 may be old, but they are still valuable first on june 4, according to the russian ministry of defense, the ukrainian army lost over 180 tanks, including german leopard french amxs here and roughly 400 armored vehicles, including the bradley camry and strike concerned about the morale of their people , the ukrainian authorities do not want to admit that even a successful counteroffensive would result in heavy casualties, and many thousands of people would be injured. the pentagon announces a new large-scale package of military assistance to kiev, said the us secretary of state damn it, the content of the supplies was not disclosed, but for the offensive of ukraine there are already all the necessary weapons, according to the pentagon, the us military dep

nato, as he said, defense minister pistorius. how much the presence of yevgeny prigozhin in belarus is alarming for western countries and for ukraine. how many mercenaries will follow him in belarus? it is not yet clear the threat to europe can be limited to countries such as poland and ukraine . anxiety. the leader of the wagner group was set up in belarus after a brief uprising. they are the president of belarus invited prigozhin's mercenaries to follow the leader, which caused alarm among the neighbors, many western intelligence agencies are trying to figure out is this not vladimir putin's plan to intimidate nato foreigners on the border with belarus well, that is, the west cannot decide in any way whether putin became weaker after the prigozhin rebellion, or the prigozhin rebellion - this is putin's plan to capture, for example, the city of kiev let suffer. let them suffer. now let's talk about the hegemon, who, after all, still wants to destroy us with old joe bidenen on his face. look , some strange marks appeared, or even

german defense minister pistorius plans large purchases of artillery and tank ammunition in confidential to the fact that due to the supply of 155 caliber shells. ukraine has only 20,000 such shells left in germany’s warehouses, while nato’s demand for the stocks of the bundeswehr 230,000 shells are to be stockpiled by 2031. in this regard, the german authorities intend to prepare in the near future nine contracts for the order of the missing ammunition. now shells of 155 mm caliber are actively used by the gunners of the armed forces. until now , the german government has refused to provide exact figures regarding the stocks of ammunition and the needs of the bundeswehr. a claim was also put forward that information about the exact stocks of ammunition of the bundeswehr. may jeopardize the well-being of the state, but very it is doubtful that the industry is capable of producing such a quantity. in addition , the bundeswehr constantly uses ammunition during exercises, and perhaps further deliveries to ukraine may further reduce the number of shells in the country. yes, olga really took

the defense of germany is a pistorius, which not only will not be able to multiply the number of militaryhat are now being destroyed in the course. e fighting, but the biden administration, however, today will announce such a new package of emergency military assistance from kiev for 325 million dollars, and there, the bradley and the stryker and shells for the himars rocket defense system and shells for the air defense system on the sams will just come in. i mean, uh, that's all. this will be taken from warehouses in the pentagon. that is, this is just to support the ukrainian counter-offensive to compensate for those, uh, uh , units of military equipment that are now successfully burning, and in the zaporozhye region and in the donetsk people's republic well, here it is. how the situation with the ukrainian counter-offensive characterizes the british magazine with icons, listen ukraine leads the counter-offensive has only been on the skin for a week now and frontline reports range from optimistic to quite bleak, according to one military source of full-blown fighting in the direction of
