of the, for the requirement of that nature face during the cold war for a significant force at west germany. this is a much, much longer commitment on a much bigger commitment. if we will ask, has the will for that. well, we'll have to see where getting along with the president, the previous president didn't have much, will like nato at all and it will probably collapsed. right, this is, this is the 100, this is the $1000000.00 question. whether whether, whether you're actually right on the trunk, but who showed trump just demonstrated contempt for nature and contempt for his places, allies, and in a sense, cozy up to potential adversaries. i'm lucky from back and if he wins the election in 2024, nate has been big trouble in it. while by that stage will know which way, which through the cookie has crumbled, but, but the bottom line with trump is that he breaks that fundamental trust that whatever president occupies the why size. that was total certainty that america would come to the aid of a nation member of attract truck, trump, right? i think on the biden, where in a better place, i hope

but the americans routinely redeployed army divisions from, from america to john, a west germany. as part of reinforcement exercises the re for direction sizes just to demonstrate that they could, that need to start doing that again. not likely. airborne troops is not enough. you, as i said, painted this bleak picture, but haven't the incredibly brave selfless ukrainian fighters are battling against overwhelming odds? haven't they shown us a vision of a much better future that could be, hadn't they given nato some inspiration are? unquestionably, they are inspiring and beyond belief and to see you at the fact the way the ukrainians of have fought is extraordinary. but, but let's not kid ourselves. brave men and women without you turn weapons and molotov cocktails are not going to stop god's tank on this. look at what look at the count, the convoy that we've all been looking for, satellite pictures all. where is the destruction of that? why has that know, why have the ukraine is not been able to attack that worries me is the barrels is not capable to capable enough to do it. and al

think back to the nature of force at west germany, in the cold war, a force of 2 to 300000 soldiers together with all the equipment and paraphernalia of war. was nature really gotta do that back in 2008, 910. i don't think there was a political chances. hello, that happening. so again, we come back to the point about if nato was to accept ukraine into the alarms, nature would need to be prepared, would have needed to have been prepared to defend it, to the teeth with really significant armed forces. and that i, for, to say was never going to happen. you say that it, but in recent years, mister putin hasn't made much of a secret of his expansion. is james his desire to compensate as he calls it, for the collapse of the soviet union, marching into georgia, for instance in 2008, crimea, 6 years later was a pretty powerful statement of his direction of travel and only got was a slap on the wrist, a few invitations withdrawn a few sanctions. the punishment didn't fit the crime. did it? if it had, do you think he could have been dissuaded from the poppies on now? i've no dodgy could have been yes.

nature of the requirements of that nature face during the cold war for a significant force in west germany. this is a much, much longer commitment and a much bigger commitment. if we will have the will for that. well, we'll have to see where getting along with the president, the previous president didn't have much, will like nato at all, and it would probably be collapsed. and the, all right, this is, this is the 100, this is the $1000000.00 question. whether, whether, whether you're actually right on the trunk, but who showed trump to demonstrate contempt for nature and contempt for his places, allies, and in a sense case eat up to our potential adversaries and welcome back. and if he wins the election in 2024, nate has been big trouble in it. while by that stage will know which way, which through the cookie has crumbled, but, but the bottom line with trump is that he breaks that fundamental trust that whatever president occupies the why science. that was total certainty, that america would come to the aid of nature. a member of attract truck trump, right? i think on the biden where in a

think back to the nature of force at west germany, in the cold war, a force of 2 to 300000 soldiers together with all the equipment and paraphernalia of war was nature. randy got to do that back in 2008, 910. i don't think there was a political chance in hell of that happening. so again, we come back to the point about if nato was to accept the ukraine into the alarms, nature would need to be prepared, would have needed to have been prepared to defend it, to the teeth with really significant armed forces. and that i, for, to say was never going to happen. you say that it, but in recent years, mister putin hasn't made much of a secret of his expansion. james is desired to compensate as he calls it, for the collapse of the soviet union, marching into georgia, for instance in 2008 crimea 6 years later was a pretty powerful statement of his direction of travel. and only got was a slap on the wrist. a few invitations withdrawn a few sanctions. the punishment didn't fit the crime. did it? if it had, do you think he could have been dissuaded from the poppies on now? i've no dodgy could have been ye

and while attention continue to grow between moscow and the west to germany is looking to israel to help lower the temperature on saturday. chancellor will have shalt hosted israel prime minister now sally bennett, in berlin. it's the 2nd time this week. the 2 leaders met after charles visited jerusalem on wednesday to discuss a diplomatic resolution to the crisis. bennett has offered to act as a mediator with israel, maintaining good relations with both russia and ukraine. bennett, surprised many when he on saturday became the 1st world leader to meet face to face with vladimir putin. since he launched the invasion. that visit was followed by talks with ukrainian president will not me up sir lensky. and for more on that, let's bring in detail the political correspondent, benjamin are the rest of the group. benjamin germany and israel share a very special relationship. i think one can say that, but 2 meetings are for the country's political leaders within just a few days. that is unusual. what do we know about the meeting between chancellor shoals and naphtali bennett, and what kind of j

east germany, west germany i think that's his style remains to be seen how much territory they can keep. negotiated settlement is a victory for the west, makes putin a weak leader and that's lethal in the strong man business a few weeks ago the main event was federal reserve. all the chroniclers told us that jpal would kill the economy to stomp out inflation. that's a possible but do you mind if we try to make money before it happens? big bad event when the fed laid out onerous path but after initial dip, the market started roaring back. rate hikes had been well telegraphed, just needed to get it over with big name strategists warned of a bear market. where the heck have they been? they ushered in the bear market in november. astounding that highly paid professionals went out of the way to caution you about something so far in the rearview mirror, we've been talking about that since november. bear market was here, unless you made a lot of money doing real things and returning money to the shareholders, it's bear. it has been. welcome the higher interest rates because inflation is eating

former-president trump and i also want to point out, of course, general, you were stationed in west germanyg the end of the cold war so you have both a personal and a professional understanding of some of what we are seeing here. general, when you hear france say the take away from a 90-minute conversation is that the worst is yet to come and that putin's going to go all the way, what do you think the worst is yet to come looks like? >> well, i think it is what we are already seeing, erin, as he has met more resistance than anticipated, right sne thought the ukrainians were going to fold and they are fighting courageously. he thought ukraine's leader would be weak, and instead he is heroic. i thought the ukrainians would welcome them and so what's left? what's left is destruction. and you see this playing out in the town -- the city of kharkiv where he has gone from failed offensive toward-let city, to firing destructive weapons into the city. indiscriminately and murdering civilians. and i am afraid we are going to see more and more of this across ukraine because his army frankly is not ve

allowed back into the national, international community after the 2nd world war in the form of west germany. so it's to be expected that they would say complimentary things about the foreign policy, certainly regarding ukraine. we should be aware of the fact that the canadian government has committed to sending fires and of anti tank miss files and hand grenades to ukraine. and of course, the german government has done the same sort of thing with some ordinance that it has sent to ukraine. the interesting thing here in one sense is that canada is a country that has failed to meet the 2 percent of its budget on defense promise, which it's signed up to in 2014 long with germany and every other nation country. or very recently mr. schultz has said that germany is going to go full speed to reach 2 percent and go above it. the other thing to take from this is look at the countries that mr. trudeau has been visiting over the course of the last few days with specific emphasis on the baltic states. remember that canada has a military deployments of troops in latvia, and it was in latvia that mr. tr
