Germany pledges more weapons to Ukraine
Germany has promised to deliver more weapons to Ukraine, during his first wartime visit
Germany’s leader, Frank-Walter Steinmeier, has vowed to send more weapons to Ukraine amid Russia’s invasion.
The German leader spent the day with Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky, discussing the war-torn nation’s needs, economically and militarily.
Steinmeier openly condemned Russia’s actions and vowed to support Ukraine militarily.
“Today, Germany is one of the leading suppliers to Ukraine’s air defense.
Thirty Gepard tanks, three Mars2 multiple rocket launchers, several thousand anti-aircraft guns, one of the most modern air defense systems in the world, Iris-T.
I hope it will help to make people a little safer, to protect them from Russia’s brutal aggression.”
Frank-Walter Steinmeier
Previously, Steinmeier had been criticised for his close political relations with Russia. However, relations between Ukraine and Germany have now turned a new page.
Germany’s alliance with the war-torn nation is clear.
Dirty bomb claims
It comes as Russia continues to make claims about Ukraine planning to use a so-called ‘dirty bomb’.
They made the allegations to the UN Security Council but the west sees the claims as “pure misinformation.”
Russia has since notified the U.S. about its upcoming annual strategic nuclear exercise.
Pentagon officials have confirmed it is strictly a drill and they will be monitoring every move.
“Russia is complying with its arms control obligations and its transparency commitments to make these notifications.”
Pentagon spokesman Gen. Pat Ryder
Don’t come back
Ukraine is pleading with its citizens who fled amid the war, not to come home.
The increasing attacks on critical power infrastructure has placed the country under significant strain.
The country has implemented scheduled blackouts to prevent the grid from overloading and to reserve energy.
The warning comes as the winter months approach.
“We need to survive this winter. [If people come back] the electrical grid might fail.
In spring, I would really like for us to work together to rebuild our Kharkiv region, Kherson region and the rest of our cities and settlements here in Ukraine.”
Iryna Vereshchuk, Deputy Prime Minister Ukraine
Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.
The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.
The government offers generous rebates and tax breaks to international productions, making it an attractive proposition for filmmakers looking to maximise their budgets.
Despite the recent intake of Hollywood productions down under such as ‘The Fall Guy’ and ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’, Aussie independents are still finding the space to carve their own creative path.
Rob Fantozzi joined the program to discuss the latest in Hollywood, and showcased his own upcoming project – ‘Omerta‘. #featured
