so we have born down very intensely with, as you said, slovakia, poland, hungary. we now have i think it's -- i'm going it get the numbers wrong, but about 3 billion cubic meters coming in from slovak why through the pipe that's now been reverse flowed. we have ten coming from a combination of poland and hungary. that will start to fill the tanks over the summer in ukraine. there are other things that can be done, including potentially more from slovakia. the problem there has to do with slovakia's contractual obligations to gas prom because gas prom owns the codes that would open the spigots. we're also working europe in its larger conversation about what might be done. it works against gas prom's market interests because they want to keep the price high. more broadly it is a strategic priority of the president to accelerate our support for a more dynamic energy market within europe which will reduce the price and make more reverse flow available. >> my time is up. so if you were to sum it up in two seconds -- >> we've started, we have more to do. >> but why is sl

he said today multiple member states including slovakia said if ukraine does not pay for its gas it will not be sending gas to the european region. ukraine owes $3.5 billion. >>> serbia said the country is experiencing the worst flooding it's ever seen. officials in the capitol of belgrade say two months worth of rain has fallen i in the last 40 hours. >>> in the east the strength of floodwaters was enough to dislodge one bridge from its foundations. >> this river made such problems and a lot of complications throughout western serbia. which is totally cut off from the recognize of th wreck of als that were floo flooding and cold because of the strength of the water. people there don't have electricity, they don't have fresh water, so the government has to send military and special police unit to help them evacuate. the military use their helicopters to help, but serbia does not have so much strength to deal with this kind of a situation, so it's asked help from european union, neighboring countries, from russia to help send special delegation or any kind of help to serbia. in the last 4

we recall that check slovakia was dismembered -- they were germans living there. we see this for the first time since 1938. now, then the idea that you can actually change borders by nonpeaceful means. the entire -- the western and eastern cohabitation that allowed us to overcome the cold war, at least in its most dangerous phase, was based on the 1975 helsinki founding act, which said that you do not change. everyone agreed. all countries agreed, including the soviet union, which was then now a successor state, you do not change borders, except through negotiation. that is the fundamental principle of the whole founding act. that no longer applies. the justification for annexing or reinfluencing ukraine was based on the 1990 cse charter that says that each country has a right to make its own decisions. on top of that i say that -- just to correct the thing about what you said, paul, all that ukraine was trying to do was get an association agreement. i mean, an association agreement basically allows teachers and students to, like, go and study elsewhere in europe.

so when we talk about reversing the flow from poland and hungary and slovakia, that wouldn't have been possible in 2009 because of the regulatory structure that was in place. so by working with europe to get the regulatory structure their making some investments and getting them to make investments in infrastructure they are less reliant today. but as russia will continue to be a supplier into europe there is more that we can do together to make sure that that reliance has diminished. is there anything like the near future providing natural gas to europe and would that have any effect on the domestic market or do we have so much that it would simply mean a new market and a new perhaps reduction in the trade investment? >> i think the united states has a role to play in this and the exports are an important factor you to >> we don't have any facilities to export. >> that's what i mean. when people talk about becoming a supplier, that would mean a large and immense effort to construct the infrastructure to do so. >> yes, that's true but some of that is already in training. the first one

so we've tried to take measures that will avoid such a situation recurring again where slovakia, for example, and a lot of other countries are cut off from supplies. and we're doing that, poland is doing that sort of scheme right now. due to the -- we're also trying to supply ukraine because thereto there is a possibility of this reverse flow. but 50% of deliveries to europe from russia come through ukraine. so there's a high dependency there, and we're very closely linked because we have big gas storage tanks in ukraine which in summer needs to be replenished so that in winter, sorry, you have sufficient gas to supply europe. so now we have to look at the individual dependence of individual countries. we have 37% dependence on russian gas, six countries are is 00% -- 100 president dependent, and there are other european members who are more than 50% dependent on russian supplies. so one has to increase the building up of lng terminals, for example, as one means to avoid further dependence. we have a so-called cert framework on the single market, from the single market on energy pack

but as far as i understand you were in slovakia when they were in it right but do you remember the day when victory was proclaimed yes yes i do you were first there remember there was a whole lot of shooting. well they gathered us all in a clubhouse and a general announced that the war was over i think what it was made a second. well this was something unbelievable absolutely incredible so it's impossible to truly describe our emotions are feeling but our excitement at that moment. i know that you purchased it paid in a victory day parade in one hundred forty five to remember it did you see stallion there of course. tell me about the parade i was marching together with the military school could it that was exactly what i wanted you know i come from a military background my grandfather was an n.c.o. in the russian imperial army and my father participated in all the wars in world war one in the russian civil war and in the finnish more in our family we called him the good soldier my mum also fought in the war for it by now i understand why you ran away to the front but the worst was that

. >> that's right, sergey lavrov speaking in slovakia with his counterpart saying the whole relationship between russia and nato, russia and the european union, should be re-examined. there's been this huge fallout over the crisis in ukraine. these two sides, the old cold war battle lines perhaps being drawn. they're just not seeing eye to eye, west, the european union, nato and russia on this issue. what the west wants, it seems, is a federal constitution in ukraine. that means they will control large area, of the country. that would mean it could prevent ukraine from joining nato. i think we'll see more trouble between the east and west in the future. >> i think you're absolutely right. all right, matthew, thanks very much. >>> let's go to the white house right now. our correspondent there michelle kosinski is standing by. what else are they saying about this latest announcement from the russian president? as matthew chance says, the third time he says those troops are moving away from the border. >> in three words, not buying it. senior administration officials today saying there's no

we had very significant rain totals from this low pressure in austria and slovakia and we have seen thef the condition and bell grade 171 millimeters of rain in just 48 hours. this is what 171 millimeters of rain looks like. in fact, it represents 2.3 times what they would expect to see in the entire month in terms of rainfall and obviously the rivers cannot cope with that much rainfall. it's a similar situation in also in bosnia and across central parts of the country, the situation is really quite grim at the moment, flooding is pretty widespread but the situation is generally looking to improve over the next few days. we are seeing the worst of the rain begin to die away. the heaviest rain probably parts of poland and austria and it's ten degrees and indication things are getting better from friday to saturday and we start to see things just warming very slowly so we lose the cold air, the system begins to lose its real power if you like. there will be some rain around central parts here including the balkins and not bad like it has been and not looking bad and warm at 29 degrees. mo
