the map that's greece, serbia hungry bulgaria, slovakia and the ball stand. here's the golden uh uh, that certainly had an effect. so not only on regular consumers, but also on inside economies, announced lavaca, as i mentioned, is just one of the countries in the europe that was affected to take a listen to this. the slovak republic will not support ukraine, neither financially nor militarily to continue the war. if others do so, we will respected the slovak republic demands that at the end, there should be an explicit demand to reopen the transit of gas through ukraine to the slovak republic. in western europe, the situation is absurd. the gas from east to west is not flowing, but ukraine is making the situation worse in europe by taking away european gas also gave executed, gets another terrorist attack just last month against american and european interest in russia. but that's time it was an oil refinery of the caspian fly applying consortium, also known as the c d c. now ukrainian drones filled with natural projectiles and explosives. that's actually an

at least to slovakia and hungry. this and the pos of not being as, as keen on supporting ukraine as the others and have often taken a somewhat russia friendly line. i'm not sure why the presence of lensky will think of this, but i said the source of it 10 years ago in this very same building, that was a meeting of solidarity for afghanistan, which was then an ally of all of these countries. what happened to us kind of some a and a 10. so we're just going to stay with you because we are expecting any moments now . the u. k. prime minister keeps stomach to speak. we just, i think of some live pictures from inside a lancaster house with a meeting was held. the media has begun together so we do understand that kissed i'm is going to speak a very, very shortly james, while we, why can you just talk us through the possibility of u. k. and a, you troops actually being on the ground and you cry. and how likely is that, that we could potentially see that in the coming months. it certainly is being floated by the by the u. k.

moreover, some european countries like slovakia, hungary, actually openly say that they are the president the country that has attacked ukraine and killed thousands of ukrainians. so i think that this contrast, this very strong feeling of injustice in us. the whole situation, where we have been basically punished. we have been accused of not wanting peace while nothing has been said about russia. we have been forced into the deal, the conditions of which are unclear, and the president was basically humility the in the oval —— was basically humiliated in the oval office. that was a very emotional moment for all of us. trump accusing _ moment for all of us. trump accusing zelensky _ moment for all of us. trump accusing zelensky of - moment for all of us. trump i accusing zelensky of gambling with world war iii. do you think he is right? if with world war iii. do you think he is right?- with world war iii. do you think he is right? if there is any nation _ think he is right? if there is any nation in _ think he is right? if there is any nation in the _ think he is right? if there is any nati

only person who thought it was not a bad thing was viktor orban of hungary and his sidekick from slovakiat they're not neutral. no, no but they're not neutral. no, no but they're not from a neutral perspective. so they would say that that's what i think on that. but let's let�*s just come back to the meeting today because obviously today the european leaders are talking about a ceasefire, although they are talking about weapons and arming. do you think that we are in any position if nato were to seriously put more money behind their defence, do you think that nato would be a big enough force against russia? >> well, nato at the moment includes america. so the issue is really is can the europeans, without the americans, provide most of that force? and the reality of that is probably not. we've had years and years of defence expenditure, and the net result is we don't have the armed forces to try and do that, which is why it is going to be very hard, which is why we've also heard prime minister starmer today talking about trying to find a way back after the disastrous events on friday in th
