u. s. congress for not being willing to send weapons to ukraine. but we know if you look at the numbers since 2014 a germany has provided more economic support to ukraine than any other country. is that fact being ignored in washington? it may be, i think, i mean, i think that to some extent, the question mark that he, it had, he just said it in his interview, that there is, you know, this law on the books that you're not supposed to send weapons into, into a conflict zone they made an exception with pass maga, and i think, to some extent, he's going to try to make up for that by saying that they're gonna increase the financial support as well as military presence in other nato countries. i think that's what we can expect. the germans to do and the financial side is, i think, also important to ukraine. and it has been the top financial source for ukraine for the several years past. so i think that there may be a better way of looking at what can we do to get germany to do and say what it can do and maybe not get so fixated on what it can't. jackson

u. s. congress at this point about implementing new sanctions against russia. and this would be a case of russia not being sang for anything that it has done, but rather for unproven and disputed allegations that russia is planning to do something. i pointed out that much of what the usa is saying simply doesn't match the fact that russia is not planning an eminent invasion of ukraine. he pointed out that russia has also engaged in activities in previous times that were similar to this. and in no way, did anyone accuse them of being plans for an invasion. so we heard some firm words from the russian ambassador. we heard about plans for the un security council for the upcoming months, but the focus seemed to be on how these allegations from the united states and these efforts disrupt tension, simply don't match with the facts, how they're hurting the world, and they're hurting the economy of ukraine and overall they just don't seem to be in the interest of the people of the world at this point. they seem to argue that the allegations of us leaders simply don't m

u. s. media and from congress as well. because of the germany about the reliability of germany as an ally, this has been called into question. do you understand this criticism? is germany a reliable partner from the, from your point of view and mr. chancellor, also a question to you. not stream to you said all options are on the table north from fire, but you're not mentioning nordstrom to buy a name. and don't you think if you were to spell this out, you could win back trust in with as a strong ally here for the us. there is no need to win back trust. he has a complete trust of the united states. germany is, are one of our most important allies in the world. there is no doubt about germany's partnership with united states, none with regard to helping ukraine, one of the largest contributors financially to ukraine has in germany. germany has been in the forefront of making sure of providing economic assistance. you also asked the question, yes, so many i can't remember them all. ah, but doug, in terms of the u. s. media st

u. s. defense officials have told members of congress that if russian troops did cross the border, they would take here within 72 hours or ukrainians. foreign minister reacted to that u. s. assessment. he twisted the following. do not believe the up collect, take predictions. different capitals have different scenarios, but ukraine is ready for any development. today, ukraine has a strong ami, unprecedented international support and ukrainians, faith in the country. this enemy should be afraid. no sauce. ukraine's presidency says, resolving the stand off with russia through diplomacy remains the most likely outcome . charles strafford has the latest from easton ukraine. present. zalinski has been of course, very appreciative to his nato partners and european countries. full. for example, the supply of additional weapons to nato countries in eastern europe. he's been very appreciative of the kind of training that ukrainian forces have received over the years by m nato partners. but he is also been certainly in the last few days and publicly criticized some western countries, notably to us

u. s. army at the time, testified to congress and said, if we're going to do a rock, it's going to take several $100000.00 us troops and very quickly, the rest of the bush administration react negatively. and he's absurd, that's crazy. it's not going to require those amount of troops, and they actually essentially drummed him out of the military. it turned out he was right. we did deploy several 100000 forces. it was just through private military. ah, so in the early days of iraq, it was a gold rush. you had companies coming out of nowhere, including black water. it was really like a cowboy wall west when nobody at any control. anybody doing anything with firearms in this country could say there are private military and company was an atm from these companies. well, the basic idea of a contractor versus recruiting training and supporting military vents is that there was room hiring a prostate or getting married. so instead of a soldier who has an ex cost of a, you're now paying a contractor who is being a times $10.00 and you're welcome. what has happened is that america has basically m
