02:38The Trump administration wants clarity on how other NATO members plan to boost their defence spending to 5% of their GDP.
02:50The US ambassador to NATO, Matthew Whitaker, insisted 5% is a necessity as the alliance is facing significant threats.
02:58He, however, did not elaborate on what those threats were.
03:02When Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine entered its second year in 2023,
03:09NATO members had agreed to spend at least 2% of their GDP on national defence budgets.
03:15US President Donald Trump has previously cast doubt over whether the US would defend allies that spend too little.
03:24However, some countries have become uneasy about Trump's links to his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin.
03:30NATO's leaders are now expected to establish a new goal ahead of the Hague NATO Summit in June.
03:37We have a war on the border, and every Roman rational
03:47starts to understand that aparation is not a free service.
03:52The fact that we are in a safe country is not a matter of it.
03:58The aparation means a lot of costs.
04:02One of the different perspectives that the United States,
04:07in the principal contributor to NATO,
04:09which is the scut of the aparation and the European Union,
04:12was the reproach that the European Union,
04:17that in time that the United States have 3% of the PIB for the aparation
04:22of the aparation of the aparation,
04:25the European Union have reached 2,2-2,3%,
04:30and, therefore, we need to increase the budget for aparation.
04:37We, being the most close to the east of the conflict,
04:42along with Poland and Baltic,
04:45we see this powerful danger.
04:49So, Romania, as well as other countries,
04:52these countries will need to increase the aparation of the aparation.
04:55These countries have had a grid between the European countries.
04:58They are neither European countries,
05:01in which they will not exist,
05:02such a way in which countries are British countries,
05:04which is crucial about the EU schools,
05:07which are the dangerous places of Europe,
05:10which countries have difficult times,
05:13which countries have to be involved.
05:15These countries have enhanced,
05:17and this countries are given the EU system,
05:19to keep them up to the EU, and that state consume the less energy,
05:25the less energy to solve the interne problems,
05:28and it is not to make any politicians that don't lead to the maximum potential.
05:32However, our interest in the country is,
05:35that Ukrainian front is not to cad,
05:37because any approach to Russia,
05:40or any advance in the West,
05:42by the Litoral of the Négre,
05:44by the Republic of Moldova,
05:46was an agravant factor for Romania and for the security of Europe.
05:51So I've supported this policy because, first of all, it's the interest of our country and Europe,
05:57but also in solidarity for Ukraine, because they do not only fight for ISIS.
06:16They are probably not allowed to.

06:56The US President Donald Trump on Wednesday announced a series of deals between Washington and Qatar,
07:24which included a record 86 billion euros with American plane manufacturer Boeing.
07:30The agreement with Qatar to purchase 210 aircraft from the US company,
07:35alongside other deals, was signed on the second day of Trump's Middle East tour.
07:40For the first time in more than two decades, a US President is on Qatar soil.
07:45President Donald Trump was greeted by the Amir of Qatar Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani
07:50here at the historic Amiri Diwan on the second leg of his Middle East tour.
07:55More than 200 international journalists are following the President's tour,
07:59but security is tight and only a handful of us have been let inside.
08:03This diplomatic visit highlights the strong US-Qatar alliance
08:07built on aligned interests in security, development and regional cooperation.
08:12In his welcome speech, the Amir called President Trump a man of peace
08:15and looked ahead to the 2026 World Cup and other sporting events that will be held in the US.
08:21President Trump thanked the Amir for his continued friendship, describing the Amir as a gentleman.
08:26The President enjoyed the traditional welcome he received
08:28and made a special reference to the camel parade.
08:31He also gave praise at the design and craftsmanship of the governmental building.
08:36The President has confirmed that he will not take part in talks with Russia and Ukraine on Thursday
08:40as he wants to stick to his schedule of the GCC tour.

08:47The European Court of Justice ruled against the European Commission on Wednesday
08:51in a major transparency case concerning COVID-19 vaccine deals.
08:56Judges found the Commission failed to plausibly explain why it doesn't possess text messages
09:00between President Ursula von der Leyen and Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla.
09:05That will be ready to use.
09:06The New York Times brought the case to obtain access to messages
09:09about the procurement of billions of euros worth of vaccines.
09:13The court stated that if such documents cannot be located,
09:17the Commission must provide credible reasons and not just claim they are missing.
09:21And the New York Times company versus European Commission...
09:25Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine was the first authorized in the EU in December 2020,
09:31leading to huge contracts in 2021.
09:33The New York Times learned of the messages in 2021,
09:37but the Commission could not provide them,
09:39leading to the January 2023 court case.
09:44Reacting to Wednesday's ruling,
09:45the Commission said it will study the decision
09:47and issue a new and more detailed explanation.
09:51It reiterated its commitment to transparency,
09:55though an official cited the difficulty of registering all informal messages.
09:58The court found that the Commission had not clarified
10:03whether the texts were deleted, how or why,
10:07and did not detail its search efforts.
10:09The newspaper had argued that the texts qualify as documents
10:13under EU access rules and should be made available.
10:17The Commission now has two months to appeal the ruling
10:19in a significant case on EU transparency.
10:22Pfizer and its CEO did not immediately react to the court's ruling.
10:26The insight in thechod
10:43and the subtitles have good new sense of pretty bad promise.
