u. s, which you might expect, but also to countries that had been, as he said, hesitant, but now had come around and there he named germany by name not always in the easy relationship, but a lot of gratitude there as well. and we saw some very careful diplomatic skills at work as well. for example, when he said to the us, you know, if you, if you start backing down from supporting us, think about what you're going to be losing. you will lose your leadership position in the world, or most, especially when he talked about china, where he was very, very cautious in his wording. he tried to be positive. he said, you know, they have put this out on the table and it's important that they're part of the discussion. and at the same time, he indicated his very strong awareness that should shine and move to deliver weapons to russia. it could be a game changer for this war. he referred to world war 3 in that context. and he said, i am doing everything i can to prevent that. so an enormous range in his answers. and he did go into quite a lot of detail about his, his piece formula, didn't he? the 10

u. s. which used the presence of w m. d, 's as a pretext for attacking the middle eastern country in 2003. here is our special coverage of one of the deadliest conflicts of the 21st century. at this hour, american and coalition forces are in the early stages of military operations to disarm iraq, to free people, and to defend the world from great. mm hm . with food and see with since the us led invasion of iraq over 1000000 people have been killed with more than 9000000 iraqis being displaced both internally and abroad. one of the architects of the war is considered to be then u. s. secretary of state colin powell who claimed that the iraqi leader saddam hussein was developing weapons of mass destruction top us officials were not the only ones justifying the invasion. western media actively followed their lead, closely observing and supporting the u. s. bombing of baghdad. and on the ground, american reporters also worked around the facts just to find the us led invasion. one more journalist who was in the ranks of the u.

u. s. and south korea, which will take place in march. there's also a table top exercise that will look at nuclear scenarios that will happen between the u. s. and talk to you next week and i think your 3 is sending a message that it is unhappy with that and it will fight fiber, fire us, and south korea. warplanes carried out a highly visible response to saturdays launch. south 3 defense ministry set the drill headed by nuclear capable. american b, one bombers affirmed the united states commitment extended to terms of its nuclear weapons. the u. s. and japan held a similar, separate exercise over waters of japan's west coast. years of diplomacy, sanctions and international censure have done little slow north korea's missile program. since martin al jazeera, what's got snyder from the council on foreign relations. he says both sides are in a cycle of reacting to each other. well, the north koreans themselves have said that the latest tests are directly response to us or okay, military drills. and i do believe that we have moved into a kind

u. s, which is also a guilty of propping up authoritarian regimes and ignoring human rights abuses that i suppose the one advantage that the u. s. has of russia right now is, is money which it can, it can throw at africa. so, and fact it's a bit difficult to speak about europe game claim here, because i recall that the competence of the european union when it comes to current security policy, your so security policy is they're running through the members. so all the decisions i've taken benjamin images, which means that there's very much depends on what national governments prioritize as strategies these every, every come in. thank one game game plan. if you want to put that on the bid as a one approach that is widely shan't european. so you, without letting k is that basically all europeans say that we need a so called connected approach to security, which relies on improving the living condition and to eliminate for example, of root causes off instability, which then potentially could also fewer terrorism and overall. yeah, and more instead of reaching so the idea is to eliminate that.
