u. k. welcome to d w. so by all account, russian artillery is just flattening everything in sight. does this sound like an army intent on actually occupying this territory if it captures it? unfortunately, yes, it does. so if you remember a course of the pictures of maria pole and the devastation cause that i think the same question asked by many observers times they call post means capture the city level of destruction. well, they are and this goes far beyond, i think, capture in terms of resources or capture to take the city and occupy them. we didn't have it since the way they would have been before the conflict. really. it's become what has always been a matter of pride, prestige, and national identity for the russians. i think the occupation of territory on the ground with a new crane, the russian senior leadership, certainly convinced is russian should be russian, is their primary concern. heads to focus on the bus at this time. and despite the untold suffering being cause in the cities, i think the russian point of view, the eventual patient is the end goal. right? so take i

u. k. welcome to the w. will turkish objection. stop finland in norway joining night? well, the turkey sticks to its objections. yes. they will because the new members have to be approved unanimously by all of the existing members. but i think what we are in is this sort of bargaining process where president, everyone is looking for some concession and just from sweden and finland and perhaps also from the united states on issues that matter to him. and in return for that, he will gracefully concede to sweden and finland can join where he's, what he's arguing is that sweden and finland harbor, members of the, the p k. k which is regarded as a terrorist organization. i don't know whether that's true or not. and i suspect that sweden fiddle and would argue that they don't harbor terrorists, but you know, there were no doubt be some discussion over, you know, whether the, whether our particular criminal's or people who shouldn't be death. but he's also arguing that they didn't posed a battle may export of weapons to turkey after turkey invaded syria a few years ago. and a

u. k. welcome to the w. now we heard there in that report, the symptoms of monkey pox are quite mild in human. so why now our health officials focusing their attention on this spread lose symptoms are generally quite mild. and the fallacy rates probably about one percent the supervision of the virus. we have in the case probably about one fence in the context of an african health care system in european health care system. you'd expect that i think be even lower. we have to remember that this cause is quite severe lesions which can scar, can stay with people for life, and also it's more likely to be lethal in young people. so there is a need to control, they tend to get on top of it quickly and prevent it from spreading. now, how can monkey pox be treated with some of the treatments that we have for smallpox, which hasn't been used in decades because of course small boxes extinct could be wheeled out. we're not quite sure exactly how effective these will be, but that does appear to be some efficacy with them

u. k. welcome, frank. we just heard the nato secretary general saying, russia's war is not going to plan and the ukraine could win this conflict. would you agree with him? and you to put it mildly, the war isn't going to plan as to whether ukraine can win. that is contingent on whether the west continues to supply your credit at the same or an increased rate. the americans are right in, but so the british that they're not necessarily inconsistent. what's developing in the south east now around the town of samaritan ask unless chance is a, a butler of a bottle of attrition. and that's not going to be easy at all. it's going to take several months. and unless ukraine continues to receive the munitions they need, such as those artillery pieces use on the piece, then they will that they, they, they don't face to feet, but they won't be able to when one can't emphasize enough, they need those weapons to continue coming in greater and greater quantities, can we talk about the reports aware hearing that russian f

u. k. welcome to you. is it accurate to compare the situation in ukraine with east asia? why does tokyo feel there are similarities in the 1st pays, i don't think he's acreage to compare the situation in your crane with taiwan. number one, russia, it's not china. right? china seas nigh teeth up in the ny, when she had condra coffee at nom china has been refrain from conducting or even thinking of any kind of massive, massive intervention. like why she has done in places such as you can call me georgia and many reasons the in, you know. and so i don't think it is in live would be chinese force you to think about and to conduct this kind of mosse scale and intervention. and so i don't thing russia and china has that a day to say. now, on the other hand, i don't think i want is the same as ukraine. taiwan is not even a member of the united nations general assembly. and taiwan has an entirely different kind of political, economic security configuration with china and also with the united states. and again, it was the 19th of denied and taiwan entered into a treaty with the ne

u k. u relations. he joins us from london. welcome to d. w. explain to was why it would matter if the u. k. a chose to walk away from this deal unilaterally. thanks for having me. i think it's really important to take a step back here and go back to the autumn of 2019. when we were in agreement between the u. k and the after a long period of the nation, you will remember that a very purchased process. and you can the manage to find a deal which included so called northern ireland protocol which avoided any kind of food or checks between the republic of ireland and northern ireland. but instead created some restrictions in terms of the movement of goods between great britain and within ireland. now this still was really important because as we know, the history of northern ireland is one of, of why ones. and it is really essential to preserve the good friday agreement and the protocol does, does exactly that. but if it, if it impinges on people's everyday lives in britain chooses to walk away from it. what changes who gets damaged? i mean, i think there is some evidence, i think it is right

u. k. professor baker, welcome to date, i believe we just heard of their health officials saying that symptoms of monkey pox are pretty mild and nothing to worry about. no cause for alarm. but after more than 2 years of a pandemic, people are naturally concerned. should we be says shy rebecca. so i mean yeah, there's a lot happening. i guess us just having been through codered, but there's a lot of good news here compared in contrast. so the case fatality rate, which is a think is the one that everyone worries about as far as how many people you might go on to have a fatal infection, is quite low from monkey pox. and it's very context dependent said previous estimates, you know, put it around between 0 and 11 percent. but that wide range is because it really is dependent on the outbreak. so we just don't know yet. but as they said in the lead in, you know, typically it's a self limiting our short term disease was relatively mild symptoms. and again, in contrast to cave it, you know, it's not a very vulnerable virus. so we wouldn't expect this sort of stream and very endless, like we had with t
