on the, our to turns earlier we spoke with dw correspondent terry schultz in brussels. and we asked her, what a long haul wore in ukraine would mean for nato. yet stilton berg told allies that they needed to be prepared for months of war, possibly even years. and that means that these reinforcements have both troops and equipment that have been sent to the eastern plank are probably not going home any time soon. if ever he also warned them, this is means they're going to spit, need to spend a lot more money on their militaries, possibly more than the 2 percent of g d. p. that nato has called for up to this point. shots reporting dashed more than 4000000 ukrainians have fled abroad. most have gone to neighboring countries, and many others have travelled overseas. hundreds have reached the mexican border city of tijuana, an international court of entry, connecting to the us state of california. from there they're hoping to cross the border and seek asylum in the united states and enjoined. now are 5 d. w correspondents. definite silence is reporting for us from cicc. when

w correspondent, terry schultz in brussels, and we asked her what a long haul wore in ukraine would mean for nato. e. n. stilton burg, told allies that they needed to be prepared for months of war, possibly even years. and that means that these reinforcements have both troops and equipment that have been sent to the eastern plank are probably not going home any time soon. if ever he also warned them, this is means they're going to spit, need to spend a lot more money on their militaries, possibly more than the 2 percent of g d. p. that nato has called for up to this point. and the german chancellor. ola schultz has defended his government's response to the war. hitting back a claims of berlin is not doing enough to help ukraine and promising more support. he also called the murder of civilians, a war crime, o d o. a red powerful sight outside the german parliament in berlin. people lying silently on the ground, a clock ticking rhythmically in the background. hundreds chose this way to reject the suffering and deaths in ukraine and to demand more action is only a short walk away inside pa

very busy program for you in the next hour, and we've got team coverage for you, starting with terry schultz at nato headquarters. terry, i don't know if you're there. yes, there you are. can you please tell us, i mean, the ukrainian foreign minister came with a very clear message. that's right. he told the allies that while he appreciates the support they've given ukraine so far, it has not been enough and there is no time to waste. in fact, he said it's too late. you can see the bodies piling up in boucher and other cities . he says, you can no longer wait and discuss what you can provide my country, whether it's offensive or defensive, you need to send everything you can now. and secretary general stilton burke follow that up by saying that allies got the message of from foreign minister club about that urgency. and no one discussed exactly what would be coming from allied governments at this point. but if you, if you believe stilton burger's significant amounts of weapons will be on their way to keep it as quickly as possible. not terry, this meeting comes a just a days for the atrocitie

is terry schultz has been monitoring all the latest developments. what's been the reaction there? terry? 2 micron speech. there hasn't been any reaction yet to the speech. it's only of course, a few minutes later, but european union leaders have reacted with very strong positive messages to the victory of emanuel mccall. starting with the baltic states, who of course, would have been quite worried with a la pen victory that her pro russian line would, would break you and nato solidarity on strong sanctions on reinforcing military presence along the eastern flank. you also have european commission, president vander, lion and european council. president shaw michelle both coming out and saying they look forward to the next 5 years working with a manual quote. i was quite surprised to hear in his speech. no mention of, of his plans for france, his role in the european union or in nato for the next 5 years. he didn't talk about foreign policy at all, not even ukraine, something on which he's, he's worked on very intensively both, both in moscow and in here. he mentioned ukraine once an

terry schultz in brussels. so terry, what's been the reaction there? everyone in europe and it seems to be very relieved with this victory. of course some leaders, including all of sholtes, had openly campaigned for mc one. he even wrote an op ed together with other leaders asking french voters to reelect mccoy. and so it's a bit puzzling that it took all actual to an hour to come out with his, his congratulatory tweet. i've been gathering the reactions here today and, and all of showed some told mccoy, your constituents sent a strong commitment to europe. today. i'm please, we will continue our good cooperation. that's much the same messages came from ursula under lion, and she also said it looking forward to continue great cooperation. european council, president shaw michelle said the same, we can count on 5. we can count on friends for 5 more years. so in the baltic states, we've also seen a huge sigh of relief that they can count on a continue to strong line from european union leaders with emanuel crone taking the lead in in france and not marine

terry schultz is joining us live. what's been the reaction that terry bought of relief throughout europe. mclauren openly was the candidate of most european union governments of the european union leaders. and they are now sending out their messages on twitter. most of them in french congratulating mccoy on his victory. certainly this would have been a le pen victory, would have been a huge problem for the european union, a huge problem for nato. so the city of brussels is very relieved tonight and with micron and paula, what would this mean for the wider you project and the future of the european union? well, certainly amendment. emmanuel mccoy is, is a pro european and marine the pen is not. and as we've been hearing from, from max and, and our other team coverage tonight, the european union had a lot to worry about with the le pen victory. even though she said she would not be taking the country out of the block. she certainly wanted to change it from the inside and end to destabilize it. so certainly a mcluhan bein

want to take us now to brussels, to correspondence harry schultz, who is the at nato h q, a. terry? what does a protracted war potentially mean for the transatlantic alliance? hi larry, this is something that secretary general still john berg has been talking about for some time. the fact that the situation we see today means a new normal for nato allies. instability right over its border for we don't even know how long. and he reinforced that today and his comments heading into the foreign ministers meeting, saying that the conflict itself could go on for months, possibly even years. so nato is going to have to reinforce it's eastern flank, now, possibly permanently. we have no idea what, what russia will do next. and so these, these bolstered troop presence is that we've seen along the eastern the eastern border. there may in fact be made permanent by nato. and as a, as sort out saying, as well, we are waiting for nato secretary general in stolen burger to deliver remarks along with usaa secretary of state to antony blank. and do expect mister blinking to press the members of the

headquarters, or where a nato foreign ministers are meeting the w correspondence or schultz is covering the meeting. a terry, what would a long hall war mean for nato? lately nato secretary general young stilton berg told allies that they needed to be prepared for months of war, possibly even years. and that means that these reinforcements have both troops and equipment that have been sent to the eastern plank are probably not going home any time soon. if ever he also warns them this means they're going to need to spend a lot more money on their militaries, possibly more than the 2 percent of g d p. that nato has called for up to this point. now obviously everybody is still reeling from a reports of atrocities in boucher has that at all changed attitudes in nato at nato. certainly it is. it is making everyone even more aware of the brutality of this war leader after leader simply expressed their shock. and their hor at what's being uncovered in boucher with the concern, as alexander said earlier, that it may get even worse. but little i have to say, this is not going to change nato's position that putting n
