The championship learned england, captain harry came from tottenham. Now he was expected to score the goals to help them win a 12 consecutive time. The im michael. Ok. Welcome. Ukraine is a step closer to getting its long demanded. Fleet of eps. Its fixed at 16 fighter jets. The United States has given its approval for denmark and the netherlands to transferred some of their old f sixteens to keith. Ukraine says theyll help close. The scar is to russian attacks. The coalition of 11 countries is due to Star Training ukrainian pilots to fly the aircraft in denmark this month, us secretary of state antony blinking, said the transfer could go ahead once the training has been completed. Its not clear how many plains will be transferred or when they could see action. Ukraine said it doesnt expect to use f sixteens until next year. Is demanded up to 80 jobs to help it fight off rushes. Invasion. Washington most approved the sale or transfer of the us major. Thats cost over to dump it to you a 2nd. Im also a senior lecturer in security and development at Kings College london stomach here. So it looks like ukraine is finally getting the f. 16 fighter jets. Its been asking for, but not in time for it. Its kind of offensive. If you were a Ukrainian Military commander, would you say, why is it taking so long . Is it really not possible to deliver these fighter jets sooner or is there Something Else going on here as well . I mean, the big question is, why werent there any preparations for ukraine to have these x succeeds this summer in the spring, we knew that was going to be account defensive. So already last year. Preparations could have been made to um, to train the pilots and, and prepare the grounds. I mean, there are, of course, many challenges business, no place to go to plane. The argument that training would take quite some time the race that some of these planes would for they do any hands on the sort of the idea that i heard many times start to either kind of weaponry code or replace uh into a certain extent. Uh, you know, me size uh, could replace the sort of the, the effect of x exchange. There was also the question of runway, you know, from where would these planes be departing on . Would these run ways be easy, be sort of phone by the russians. So there were a lot of issues which, you know, logically made made. It seems kind of challenging. Also, the runways have to be prepared for ext exchange. I mean there were a lot of issues which in my view could have been overcome. And the whole life which should have been cut right. Dollars much. Yeah. And i think that that was his hope that the ukrainians would sort of manage to pierce. Some of their defense is more, more rapidly by conducting was sort of one big blow. But that would have entitled a significant number of casualties, so that ukraine has decided to revert to tactics, not maybe slower, but which may not involve so many high number of casualties, right. The Washington Post is reporting that the u. S. Has revised down its assessment of ukraines counter offensive, saying it now believes keep will fail to reach its key goal. Pessimistic or this will bring truth or i think its very difficult to to, to know. I think its, its a base in im, in from my point of view it is, it is present, may stick in the sense that, uh, you know, i think in the long run, there is a possibility. If you crane gets the ride weaponry for it to continue advancing. So, i mean, they are advancing. If you read reports from, for example, from that usage it for this type of, for, they showing quite some detail how they are making advances nearby mod, done also in the west ends up what is your blast on that was that drunk drug funds . Further south of arrow, but do you not toward stop my come then towards me telephone. Its a long way. If you look at the map, uh, you know, we see that the distance is not quite long still, but there are advances that are being made. So its a question of patients and i think that if the waste was ready to continue providing with a significant weapon rate to your brain, then you know these a piercing code to take place because Russian Forces are starting to feel, you know, the challenges of these advances and also the ukrainians. Ive been hitting also behind enemy lines uh you know, and trying to destroy the lines of communication supplies. I munition, they pause. I know this has an impact. I think that it depends a lot. What is our timeframe . Obviously americans well hoping that by the old time the ukrainians were reaching already the see of i saw off on but the on scan and on my new part of this is such a you know, going to be the case. So in that respect of the assessment that is provided by the Washington Post is probably correct. Its not going to happen in the timing that we were on hoping. But my assessment is that this is not impossible if we a patient and we provide the ukrainians. We significant amounts of support. We know if i may say just one fine and point that the ukrainians have to be careful in terms of manpower, they cannot to expand to significant numbers of one power because they dont have such high number. So it also makes sense that their approach is more careful when they are trying to advance. And this may imply that sometimes its lower of them sort of one big blow was, you know, maybe the americans were expected or okay, well have to ended there. Thats a dumb it to use the most and many thanks. Thank you. Thank now for look at some more developments related to the war in ukraine. The 1st cargo ship to use ukraines new black sea corridor has arrived and is stumble in turkey. The vessel departed from the port of odessa or earlier this week. Chief says the route will be primarily used by cargo ships left in limbo after moscow pulled out of the deal last month, guaranteeing safe passage from ukrainian ports.

Our meeting today at the us president ial retreat camp David Joe Biden is hosting his counterparts for their 1st ever try lateral center. While the us is close to both relations between japan and south korea are tricky. The meeting could lead to more military cooperation and exchange in response to growing regional threats. It was a sign of bullying relations, the south korean president and the japanese Prime Minister, praying together in her russian uh at the monuments memorializing korean victims of the atomic bomb.

President joe biden seize the moment, hoping to persuade his to allies, to co operate clothes and militarily with the us, as well as each of the spots in south korea. Many a not ready to forgive japan for its historical atrocities, and some say, or military partnership will increase tensions with north korea. Last month, north koreas leader came and dont own invited russian and chinese leaders to a military parade showcasing his latest long range missiles. The 3 Nuclear Power has showed a united front and when the us, japan and south korea recently health joined navy drills and the sea of japan, russia and china followed suit with their own drills in the pacific. When it comes to tie one, china will be closely following the summit at camp david type pay keeps rehearsing for an attack and beijings ambitions to 1. 00 day take the island remains. China has long accused the washington of meddling and what it sees as its internal affairs. It is likely to see close a us military ties with japan and south korea as a 3rd of the right. Lets bring in dw, correspond to james trader in taipei. James, are us official, says that the us south korea and japan will agree to crisis consultations at the summit today. What else can we expect from this on as well, only as crisis consultation . So as to what these 3 countries wants, essentially is 2 dependent channels of communication at moments of crisis as a face. More threats from north korea and china. Some of the other things are expecting from the summit, or enhanced intelligence sharing capabilities and also potentially cooperation on military exercises. But most importantly, what these 3 countries, one from the summit is to make it a regular events. Now why is that such a thing to . Well, in the lead up to this summer, ive been speaking to this and basically asking them, you know, say 5 years ago, would it have been possible to get the leaders in japan and south korea in the same room . And they think the kind of lost locked me out the door, these 2 countries, the birth us 3 is the allies, but have a long standing grievances and each of the each other is that report mentions this. Somebody its, i think is evidence that the jury political wins in east asia. A changing the shad feeding among the leaders about those pos, grievances, need to stay in the past and they have to look forward to emerging threats in the region. Now, before japanese Prime Minister changed a lot for tokyo, sorry, left of 5, washington. And you have this to say who those who i need will be a historic opportunity for us to strengthen the Strategic Partnership between all 3 countries of how many threats to a free and open international order. Based on the rule of law, uncle to know, kind of build on the foundations of our bilateral relationships with both the United States and south korea to consider which are stronger than ever united though. Eh, conduct danas japans Prime Minister there, praising the relationship between the 3 countries. But when it comes to japan and south korea, that this hasnt always been the case, whats brought them closer, trans smoke . Most degree that such a pond in south korea, rushes invasion of ukraine was a real wake up cool. Something the japanese Prime Minister actually should have, has repeatedly talks about since then as if i did this, you know, ukraine is today. Could be east asians tomorrow. Thats right, hes talking about, of course. North korea is growing new care all snow and chinese right. Submitted the reaction against taiwan. The other 5 say though, is russia both china and north croup and expanding cooperation with most go, despite most goes invasion of any crane. Earlier this week we saw a russian and Chinese Naval ship. So for instance, together invoices, they have a japanese islands of ok now, which are really close. So its high, one in the south, west in parts of japan. And then today we even had an announcement from japan that they had to scramble flights of jets, of threats to russian planes over the sea of japan. So this somebody so is that those grades urgency around these threats in the region. And that is a recognition that if russia, china and north korea are going to be walking together in a way that they perceive is re shaping the international to the us. Japan and south korea are going to have to Work Together to if they wants to protects it. Thats a dw is a james trader in time pay many thanks, james.

Yet another demand rejected by new jersey, new rulers and friends. The image ill use the 1st stage, the president , you know, and let me know whether it was not professionally safe.

And no one expects by me and it just to, to will who i am when the lady it. But ive seen as youve seen, the teams are improve and just getting tougher and tougher. So uh its a challenge every season.
