that's due to china inflation and all kinds of things. but at the same time, luxury housing spending in this it's country has gone down considerably. & prices have declined 7% this year. and that was two declines. everyone in the pandemic bid up these rich houses and they were living in their beautiful estates. and now the prices are going down. and so you could get a real bargain on mole. the question i want to dollar, he is kara, are you personally doing what you can? >> to reverse this trend? and put spending on luxury items up. >> you've got a very successful, get that, but i'm not quite in your group, but i for the rest of us here, let me just put that out there anyway, i think it's interesting to see what happens here and the prices were elevated and now because of a lot of reasons down, it'll be interesting to see where it goes. but the economy kind of hangs on and spending maybe not how i'm spending. ending is pretty strong. >> i think it just the price has got out of line with what they were actually worse. and that's really going back
8:01 am
there, going back to i think it's called celtx secular normalization i'm all for a secular gang. thank you all for being here and thank you for spending part of your day with us. let's see it right back here next week hello everyone and welcome to the amanpour, hour. >> here's where we're headed this week the clandestine conflict between iran and israel erupts into the open could it get any worse my intel briefing from britain's former spy chief said john sores, we need to recognize that this shadow war between israel, iran has going on for a good number of years now. also this out, this looks like something you'd see out of hitler's germany why are maga republicans parroting plutons propaganda? it's so outlandish. it's so wrong. and in many ways, then check
8:02 am
president petra pawel wounds the united states that are lost for ukraine means a loss for the whole of europe and us assistance who has helped to ukraine cannot be replaced. >> also this hour, the ukrainian maestro at the met on unity through music, fighting for the freedom makes us to feel everything deepa, ever sink more emotionally. >> plus y an election in india is so crucial to america's relationship with china. and from my archive, the nuclear deal, trump and netanyahu pulled out of that heightens the day singer in the middle east today welcome to the program, everyone, i'm christiana one poor in london, and we begin with the wider war that nobody wants the united states has not been involved in any offensive operations what we're focused on, what the g7 is focused on. and again, it's reflected in our statement and in our conversation is our work
8:03 am
to de-escalate tensions after being warned by its allies to avoid further escalation, the us says, israel carried out a strike inside iran on friday iran downplayed the impact of what appears to be a fairly limited strike after its air defenses intercepted three drones with no reports of a missile attack. and iranian official told reuters there was no plan to respond at this point. all this came less than a week after iran launched an unprecedented attack on israel in response to a strike on its embassy compound in syria former israeli general tommy or hyman, who once was head of intelligence for the idf, told me israel had miscalculated on both hamas and iran i think the intelligent they idf intelligence was wrong in the october for not detecting the hamas intention and it was wrong about assuming what will
8:04 am
be the iranian response. >> those are two mistakes, no doubt about it with israel and he runs decades as long shadow war now playing out in the open. the rules of the game in the middle east are being rewritten. >> i spoke with britain's former top spy about the situation just before friday's strike. so john suarez, welcome back to our program. thank you very much, chris, here what do you think at the end of this very, very tense week, josep borrell, as all the leaders are meeting to try to figure out in europe and what's happening has said that we are on the edge of a cliff. >> do you agree? >> i think i'd maybe slightly overstating it is a very tense time at the moment after the israeli strike in damascus and the very heavy iranian response, we need to bear in mind that iranian response was a failure there'll be disappointed in tehran that a tiny fraction only of their a barrage of missiles and drones
8:05 am
only a very few got through. i didn't really cause any damage at all to israel. i think prime minister netanyahu is feeling pretty comfortable at the moment just two or three weeks ago we were all talking about the disasters in gaza, the failure of the relative that's a failure of the israeli offensive. there and the bombing of the humanitarian convoy. he's changed the subject. >> so what do you think is a manageable next step if there is such a thing, first of all, we need to recognize that this shadow war between israel, iran has been going on for a good number of years now the latest round of this was the israeli strike in damascus, which took a lot of people by surprise, including the united states administration. i think it shot the iranians as well because it was a sort of escalation to attack a designated diplomatic building, even though it was being used as a headquarters
8:06 am
the revolutionary yards, i think israel made a strategic misjudgment. they thought they could live alongside a hamas-controlled gaza seven october demonstrated they could not, while they're living alongside a hizballah controlled lebanon they're living alongside popping iranian controlled syria, but a syria in which iran has a substantial foothold now, i don't think the israeli security chiefs, the people i used to work there mossad and shin bet and so on will be ready to tolerate this indefinitely and they'll say, if not, now, then when. but i think the politics point to a gradual step forward rather than a major escalation. >> and i just wonder your security interlocutors over the years, many of them have publicly said that actually israel's most existential threat is the continued lack of a political resolution that would bring security between israel and the palestinian. do you think now is you look at
8:07 am
this morass that they're in in gaza that that option is still on the table for for israel, there has to be an option for a political solution. there was a common ground between prime minister netanyahu and hamas in that neither wanted a two-state solution. they both wanted a one state solution. but hamas wanted one state solution with no israel. and israel wanted a one state solution, but no palestinians and i think either course is a recipe for really serious problems. so we gotta get back to the concept of a two-state solution. i think it is conceivable. it is possible to get there so that has to be addressed. but israel does have to also address it's direct security is security demands you say there's general is saying you have to finish the job in gaza. i'm not so sure about that, actually, i think israel succeeded in reducing gaza to rubble. >> that a success. it will
8:08 am
exactly. that's not exactly a success. they haven't secured the release of the remaining hostages were still live. they haven't killed the hamas commanders. they've caused no mass mountains, humanitarian suffering. frankly, i think from the israeli point of view, they can change the subject. they can switch to iran and hizballah and just call it a day in a really in gaza, i think that is conceivable. but the alternative christiane is if the israelis do go back into, in a big way into raffa to take on the last of the hamas battalions. >> yes, there's a security logic to it, but will they actually achieve any more than they achieved already? >> i'm very skeptical. i think hamas will be able to reconstitute its military forces. there'll be plenty of volunteers, four hamas battalions emerging out of this aza, this conflict, and then the only real answer to both gaza and the west bank is to have a, a, an authority of
8:09 am
palestinian leadership, which takes responsibility for those territories in the concept of a context of working towards a palestinian state, which lives alongside a secure and peaceful israel now, onto the other major or maybe unloved war, right now on ukraine. yeah, our ukrainian sky. >> and the sky of our neighbors deserve the same security. and i thank everyone who also perceives our need for security as a need for equal security for all, because all lives are equally valuable and he made the obvious point that of course they're not nature but noise, noise, israel, nato. >> so this stuff can be done. now, i don't know your view on that, but your view on the americans who, as we speak are getting ready to bring this aid bill finally to the floor of congress.
8:10 am
>> ukrainian armed forces have done a remarkable job holding the russians have baby, initially pushing them back. but the logic of a a war between a major country with 140 million people and a big industrial base. again, it's a medium-sized country that's beginning to tell and what has kept ukraine going has been international support is being above all, financial support from the europeans and even more critically, military support mainly from the united states. and sadly, the delay in approving further military support a budget for support for ukraine has enabled russia to get on the front foot in ukraine, it's meant the ukrainian forces have been much more cautious about using what limited material they have at the moment, i think the i hope the vote in the house will be successful. the money will be approved. i think it will be give a very big boost two to zelenskyy and so the whole of
8:11 am
america's ally, allies around europe. and it will be a big setback for president putin. >> you can hear some of the maga republicans literally spouting russian propaganda, nazis this, i mean, it's really like word for word, bertin's playbook and is disinformation machine. there's frequent pictures all over anybody can find them of nazis here they are i mean, these people are literally speaking from putin's playbook & you know, the issues around trump and his affinity for, for putin. >> i want to ask him finally jd vance was a senator very close trump ally is essentially now writing it's going to have to give up its territory to russia. and we're just going to have to move forward. >> that plus, ukraine, russia doesn't matter as much to us as israel well. >> first of all, i friend the series, misjudgment to say that russia doesn't matter. russia is the biggest single threat to european security and north atlantic security. i know china
8:12 am
is a big strategic threat and it is the most important competition for the next for the rest of the century. but if you're looking at the next decade or two, the real security threat comes from russia it was flat wrong to think in terms of russia not being a threat. you have to recognize that russia is led by a very autocratic, all-powerful figure who has gone into his head that somehow ukraine is should be part of russia. he is undermined all the principles of the united nations charter and is quite clearly seemed to be doing that so we've got to defend ourselves against him and the vote in the house representatives to renew support for ukraine is going to really important in this so john, so thank you very much indeed. thank you, christiane coming up later on the show, trump's former defense secretary on the danger of maga, republicans buying into putin's propaganda then 1

8:18 am
the absence of vital us aid for ukraine, other allies are stepping in to fill the vacuum the czech republic in central europe is leading an international effort to deliver 1 million artillery shells to ukraine within a year. yeah check president petro pavo, who's also a former army general and senior nato official join me from prague, and i asked him whether he thinks ukraine war could be lost by washington president pawel. >> welcome to the program thank you. you probably have heard that the defense secretary and united states, lloyd austin has said that russia is beginning to make incremental gains. it's moving onto the front foot and it's beginning to really presses advantage. now that for instance, ukraine doesn't have the max hurricane aid, how much of a difference will it make for you and your effort and for ukraine? if the house passes this aid bill on
8:19 am
saturday night, while we all hope that this bill will be passed on saturday because us assistance who has helped to ukraine cannot be replaced placed europe is doing increasingly more and more european nations are taking responsibility. but the united states still provide at least 50% of it. so that's why we all count on, wright american decision. >> what do you make of some of the senators even? >> i'm. not just the congress people who are in this sort of trump what we call the maga group of of trump republicans in congress, senators like jd vance of ohio who has been ever since the munich security conference, essentially making a case that ukraine doesn't matter essentially that it should just surrender and give land to russia i believe that ukraine is equally important for europe as it is for united
8:20 am
states and the rest of the world. because it's not just about the defense of sovereign country and its territory it's about the principles. these principles matter for the united states. the same way as for us. if russia succeeds in ukraine then the whole trans-atlantic community will not be trusted anymore because we are talking about protecting our values but we are not doing enough to protect them in practice. if russia prevails with its attitude to pushing its interests, my force all countries that are watching will be inspired. starting with china number of countries in africa middle east an asia. i believe that it is a crucial, important that we all deliver all necessary assistance to ukraine four to prevail and to push on russia back.
8:21 am
>> and now you can see that there's a whole, another war on our dale's doorstep, potentially iran, israel, obviously see the war that's been going on in israel and gaza.& so i want to ask you to reflect on what happened when allies came to the aid of israel to the defense of israel in the face of iranian missile barrage israel is not a nato country. and that was noticed and commented on by the ukrainian president, who's asking, well, we've been asking you to secure our skies and to help us also defend against these russian and iranian by the way projectiles. here's what he said. >> well, after yesterday's attacking me, i want to ask you a question israel, part of nato, who are not, but a mod. this shows the answer they're the israel is not a neutral country the nato allies, including natal countries, have been defending israel, daqqa, but they showed the iranian forces that israel was not alone but it seemed to cars. and this is a lesson continent. this is a response to anyone on
8:22 am
any continent who says, you need to assist ukraine very carefully, so you don't engage name countries in the war as a former chief of staff of your armed forces, a former nato general and senior official. what do you make of that? >> i mean, there is a double-standard, right? on one hand, i fully understand president zelenskyy frustration on the other hand, if that iranian attack was not not pushed back, if there was no coordination among a number of actors to prevent serious damage in israel i think that was an afford to prevent another war. because if that attack was not announced upfront, if that cost a lot of damage and casualties, we might have seen the outbreak of a new war no one, once such a new war to happen in such a difficult
8:23 am
environments such as middle east, ms present. finally this new war, there was already the war going on between israel and gaza. have these taken significant attention away from defending ukraine or can the alliance do both things at the same time? >> i think we don't have the luxury to take the crisis one by one. if they happen at the same moment, we have to deal with both at the same time. and the principles are still the same. we should condemn the aggression, but we should also do our best to avoid civilian casualties and to bring the parties to the table as soon as possible. >> president petr pavel of the czech republic. thank you so much for being with us. >> thank you for the opportunity still to come on the show. the ukrainian conductor who swings her bhutan like a sword and leads her
