the the, this is dw news live from berlin as truce talks for guys the continue us president goes vice president, cala harris ups, the pressure on israel to act. there must be an immediate faith fire. this as rarely forces step up operations in southern gaza. also coming up the u. s. supreme court expected to rule on whether donald trump can appear on a state ballot. it is just one part of the legal trouble facing the republican presidential front runner, the

sarah kelly. welcome to the program. egyptian state media is reporting significant progress toward a gaza truce between mos mediators, katara, and the united states. they have been holding talks in cairo, in the hope of securing a truce in the 5 month war between israel and mos which is seen as a terrorist organization. by several nations that us officials have said that israel has broadly approved deal. meanwhile, us vice president cala harris has called for an immediate cease fire in gaza for at least the next 6 weeks. or comments are the strongest by a us administration official on israel since the war started. paris is hosting pentagon, so on monday, a member of israel's war time cabinet and a political arrival of president benjamin netanyahu. guns will also be meeting with

other us senior officials. let's have a listen to what harris had to say. and given the immense scale of suffering in gaza, there must be an immediate cease fire select which is what is currently on the table. this will get the hostages out and get a significant amount of aid and and let's get more on that. we are joined by cream alga harvey, who has the view right now from cairo. so, you know, we were getting these reports in reports of significant progress. this is at least what the egyptian state media are saying, what are you hearing quite a bit. so 1st of all, very, very sketchy news. we don't have any refresher statements that we know that the how must indication egyptian intelligence,

the customer immediate us and us intelligence of sitting together in cairo. now we have to egyptian state media reporting that there is significant progress without any from the substance or details say what this process parenthesis might entail. but one of the problems yesterday, one of the sticking points, why the is there any indication, did not show up in cairo, was that the x rays demanded. and this is from a home us about it who is going to be released, the names who is still alive, who is injured, who is that they wanted to have more details about the hostages. and how most refuse to give this the test. they say this will be given when there will be finally a ceasefire. and the other thing which is also may be important, but also not confirmed is so that's it from these really media. there are reports that the, these right is a no,

not any longer demanding this list and the, that the, the modeling, just the number of people, the number of hostages, who still are life. but a very important, all this reports are not really officially confront. and we're also getting reports, and this, this is what the united states is saying, is that israel has already agreed to a framework for proposal. and they are saying now that it's up to him off to respond to that proposal. so, you know, how does things now progress and move forward to yes, we know that the old sites that we took, the framework and the framework is a 6 week. the tools and the there was a get, a sense read about 40 is range and hostages in exchange for the 10 phone number of palestinians is really presence. we have about 9000 products. the reason is really presents many of them at children's 3000 of them was just out any form of try. and

so it no one of the points that is a point where they both sites are not agree. this point is going to be released on the policy inside exchange for the x ray. and it also just is read yesterday presented a list of places to stay out. not willing to is it sets free. so i think that's one of the main discussion points. in addition, addition to that, how much is also asking for guarantees that this process of assessing 3 more hostages and then later possibly even more should end up in a permanent future ceasefire. basically, in the end of the war, that is something that is right is not willing to accept it. i think this is one of the main contradictions in this whole legal sheet. since we have have 2 sides negotiating, it basically is one is regression thing with hum us who at the same time, one of the pointed goals of this war is the destruction from us. and this is

something of course, this is decisive for all the decisions. both sides make note within this negotiation process. journalist kareem alcohol, right in cairo. thank you. you're welcome. i as well, the us supreme court is expected to rule shortly on whether donald trump can appear on the ballot in the colorado state primary. the colorado vote is one of 16 being held on tuesday to help decide the republican and democratic party nominees for the presidency. trump also faces a series of other trials that could affect his chances of the 2nd whitehouse term. one former president for criminal cases with a total of $91.00 charges, an unprecedented situation in american history. and depending on when these cases happen, a potential game changer in november's election. let's look at the cases. trump

faces a federal election interference trial, a business fraud case in new york. a federal case about trumps holding on the declassified documents and the state level election interference case in georgia. the federal election interference case is led by special council jack smith. it covers trump's efforts to stay in office after he lost the 2020 election, including his encouraging a crowd to march on the capital, build the attack on our nation's capital. on january 6th, 2021 was an unprecedented assault. the seat of american democracy, or described in the indictments, it was fueled by lies. but the u. s. supreme court agreed to hear trump's case that since he was president at the time is immune from prosecution. it's on clear when they'll deliver a judgement. the new york state attorney general's case against trump 34 charges of

filing false business records. that's based on payments he made and allegedly miss reported to point a graphic film after a stormy daniels before the 2016 election, allegedly to by her silence about an affair. trump has reacted as in each of the cases by attacking the prosecutors. the then there's the federal case claiming that trump to classified national security documents with him when he left the white house. that case is scheduled to begin on may 20th, but the judge has so far been sympathetic to the trump legal team's efforts to delay the proceedings. then there's the state election interference case with 13 charges based on actions. trump talked to try to change the results in georgia,

a state he lost the case has been thrown into turmoil. however, by revelations i'm in the legend. romantic affair between the lead prosecutors trumps legal team has moved to have them taken off the case. a trial could start in august. they're also separate efforts by legal scholars and activists to keep trump off the ballot in various states based on his actions after the election. but the supreme court has been skeptical of those claims. the big question is whether trump will be able to escape reckoning until after the election. if he wins. when he becomes president, he could instruct his justice department to drop the federal cases would also be much harder for state prosecutors to convict him in office dw reporter william blue cross joins us now from berlin. so williams of us supreme court could issue a ruling today on trump's eligibility to hold office. what's expected?

right, well what's expected is we don't really know. the supreme court is very tight lips as always as the most secretive of the branches of the federal government. but all points indicate that there will be a ruling on this colorado ballot which effectively is a ruling on the nation wide ballot. that is why the supreme court essentially took up this case, not just a rule on one state, but the supreme court is the highest, you know, overlooks the highest law on the lam us constitution. so whatever rules will most likely apply to the entire united states, and we don't know how it's going to how the justices will react, but based on what they've already come out in public. and in terms of the hearing that led to, that is probably going to lead to this ruling other thing, very skeptical of kicking donald trump at this stage. and in this way, at least off the colorado or any other mallet, especially in the primary season. and the lower court we understand has already ruled unanimously, the trump is not immune from prosecution. so why would the supreme court one to

review that, to write that constitutional scholars, legal scholars almost across the board are saying that of course, the president does not have absolute immunity. a crime is that he or eventually she may commit. that would turn a president into a dictator or a king, which of course is the exact opposite of what the united states was founded on and try to get away from 250 some odd years ago. the question of the supreme court is dealing with as to what extent is the president or is a president potentially immune and that has far reaching effects nationally, not just for donald trump and not just for this moment, but also going ahead. so it's plausible to think that the supreme court wants to weigh in on this as the highest court in the land to set a standard for exactly what is and is not a president liable for awhile. and office trump is on track to clinch the republican party's nomination as presidential cat candidate. but i mean, you know, with all of this going on, he could be disqualified. blame. what would that mean?

right. it's, it's a precarious situation, right? the, the, we have a legal track, the cases that are unfolding, we have the electoral political track and these things are unfolding at their own speeds, but also inter related. and the justice system in america tries to keep out of politics are actually firm rules about not influencing elections in this year. it looks like one way or another. it's going to have an impact on what people think about their, their choices and about donald trump. so it looks like they can't get out of even to their best if they tried their to their best ability to not impact the election and politics. the fact that the supreme court is now taking up this case pushes these cases down the road, which has many people seriously heard and ralph's reports, that these cases might not be actually adjudicated until after the election of donald trump will have a lot of leeway to basically avoid them, so he's playing for time in his defense team is doing their job representing him to

that effect. william blue cross. thank you. a group of ukrainian children have been visiting the us to help raise awareness of mass abductions by russia. ukrainian authorities estimate that at least 19000 children happened forcibly relocated from ukraine to russia since russia's full scale invasion 2 years ago. you know, using as poll reports now from washington, dc. it's actually unclear are victims. so for us more in ukraine, the 3 children were adopted by russian soldiers during the royal siege of murray. you pull 2 years ago of to most of the parents were killed in dia, tech. i traveled to washington to share their stories and seek support from lawmakers to continue funding ukraine. why we're working very hard with wondrous and the white house and everyone on the additional supplementary budget. this issue

kids and especially having their voice as a having brave 11 year old, 13 year old saying i wanted to go back home. i am ukrainian, i didn't want to be turned into russian and they, they were holding me again my, my will, this is such a powerful message. the organizers hall trying to avoid re traumatizing the children by having them repeat their stories multiple times. they have provided pre taped interviews for an event at the ukraine house, or say, i know what to say. i'm, i'm in the book a but so, so the pretty almost and what i see here in the go in when you book research as nice as the bush you do, most of mama plead along the police are laying appraisal, e glues available separately. you hello, you have what a 021, and here's

a girl. it's a few moments later we talked with a 13 year old sa shaw and the 14 year old kiera outside too young to be sure. and i found it. but my hope for victory and for my mazda to return your money, i dream of becoming a firefighter, somebody i dream of helping people and the most and difficult situation for me at the shop. i mean, i remember lying in the hospital with injuries. uh they told me i might be taken to north financial the rights of the dome to grandfather managed to rescue her. but i was very relieved because i was afraid it wouldn't be possible for them to bring me back to me. as of right, the grandfather traveled with her to washington. you too at the should have listed in the digits of with the children of the future of any country. children of the future of our ukrainian,

and my opinion by taking away children from our country. there is simply trying to deprive our country over the future with issue. so i am seeking help to assist in bring back our children. no longer there was a ship nationality. at least 20000 ukrainian children are still being held hostage. these 3 are among the $300.00 which was being rescued. they are using their voices to help free those who weren't as fortunate for more. let's bring it now based off of that because he, if he is with save the children ukraine. thank you so much for your time. this afternoon. we heard a little bit earlier that ukrainian authorities estimate at least 19000 children have been forcibly taken by russia. many, however, say that the number is much higher. what is the assessment of your organization? how you experience this sort of the short answer is that there is

no resort to the know the sort of very, fide or end to secure number that we can operate with. somebody have different estimations provided by a russian and, but you create a government government buttons talk. the short answer is that's we don't know. and this brings so much complexity to the issue because we're not able to properly trace those children as it. and as a matter of fact, i know table to 100 percent uh, fully facilitate every ton and reading occasional was that families can you give us a window into what happens to some of them? it is one of the talking about the children of the beings that have been separated from their families. there is so much upheaval and uncertainty for them because they are being put to an area and environment. and often they even have not. and chance to put you in to see to be able to contact the parents or relative or maybe even to know what they are afraid to use. and it makes

them so vulnerable on so many levels viable for home, abuse exportation or even being trafficked. and to say the children, our main concern is of course children as well be as this, we all facilitating the insurance rel, local partners here, and ukraine. we have been able to witness this atrocious often mazda, the children, have a problem being returned to their families. and we know taste is when children could not spend a minute to wait from the parents. upon being returned. let's and required weeks of psycho social support and psychological work before being able to interact with other children again and do simple things as just go to school and you know, the 10s of thousands believe to have been abducted. we have to mention that only a few 100 actually have been returned or rescued. so far. you mentioned that you're working with partners, give us a sense of, of how you're partners,

how ukraine as well as going about finding some of these children and then bringing the back or so it looks we have seen so far, just a serious of sporadic returns and the most effective vice, as far as proven to be just parents going they, i'm taking their children by being facilitated by civil society organizations and some major donors. what we really see is that the search party diplomacy is also playing a very success control. and this, judging by the route tons that caught up for example facilitators. but when we're talking about it's thousands of children being forcibly taken to russia, we need some sort of a structure, some sort of a mechanism. and when we can not expect any sort of a diplomatic panel being established in the near future between ukraine and russia, it is important that search parties engaged into this situation and facilitate this

pro just process as well as international doing us. and we as charge for attachments or organizations are involved into tackling the optim us essentially pro coffee, if uh, with saves the children ukraine. thank you so much. here, some other stories nikki haley has won the republican primary in the us district of columbia. it is the 1st win for haley who was, who has lost her to her arrival, donald trump, in all other votes. so far, the sea is one of the most democratic leading jurisdictions in the country. ukraine has claimed responsibility for blowing up a railway bridge in russia's tomorrow region. it says the bridge was being used to transport military cargo. russia has in recent months, reported a series of attacks on its infrastructure,

which it blamed on ukraine. keeps says that moscow used as the rail network to move troops and equipment for its invasion of ukraine. of the german trade giving verity has called for the tons of airlines, ground staff to strike on thursday and friday, this week. verity wants pay raises of at least $500.00 euros a month. the g d l train drivers union has also announced strikes to coincide with the live tons of action talks with rail operator, diaesha bon, broke down over better pay and shorter working reach the russian media say that the foreign ministry has summoned the german ambassador to moscow after the publication of an audio recording, in which senior german military officials discussed weapons for ukraine being bassett, or arrived at the ministry in moscow for what the german for an office says was a plan meeting not a summons. he refused to answer questions from russian journalist and

a leech reporting published by russian state broadcast or r t on friday. german officials discuss the potential use of german made long range tourist missiles to attack the coach bridge in occupied crimea. now, germany's defense minister, boris, the stories has accused russia, of conducting and conducting an information, were aimed at the stabilizing germany tickets. i'm boy, this is clearly about undermining our unity because it's about splitting our domestic politics a part time. and i very much hope that putin doesn't manage that link does that we remain united despite any disagreements over the taurus issue and all the questions that need to be onset. we continue for in the end, it's crucial that we remain united does not allow us sales to be divided by putting that's exactly what he wants and we need to stand united against that. okay, that's more on this. we're done by chief political editor of mckayla cook. now we have the 1st of all a, you know, we heard those reports there. the russian media are saying that the kremlin has

some in the german and bassett or other sources saying that this was an appointment that had been scheduled for awhile. what have you been hearing? well, we just heard from the spokesman of the german farm ministry. indeed saying that this was a pre planned meeting. so that is in stark contrast with russia and media reports and funds which had spoken of the term and, and by said that being spontaneously summoned. so this is evidence if you needed any that this is also an information rule that is taking place at this moment in time, where we also saw today the spokeswoman of the russian foreign ministry. conclude that to the licks tape in which hon. the rank and file of the military discuss options for use and modes in which one could provide to determine tower system to ukraine. see said that this was evidence that de mathis,

vacation and i quote, was not completed in job. and he says the same terminology that was used ahead of the russian attack on ukraine. but having said that, this is rhetoric we are hearing from the german foreign ministry spokesman. again, that has been used the full as well as pointing towards the lot off know of nuclear weapons that russia has funding. they pretend himself did that recently and see we also heard the german government spokesman say that germany would not be a really engaging with this kind of rhetoric, which is clearly seen here as part of ross's information. val, hybrid for us, the term defense minister put, and another piece of information that the russians have been disseminating as they say that the league proves, and i'm calling here direct involvement of the west in ukraine. what are we to make of that framing or what having listen to the tape. and i cannot detect that

if it's out there in the public domain, everybody can listen to it. the tape essentially. i mean, it is a very embarrassing the, for the german military with high ranking offices, basically debating what they can propose to german politicians that would exclude this being able to be seen as durham and direct involvement in the selection or operation of tockets of the towers a missile system, which is a very advanced system, this all of this, against the backdrop of the gem and tonsils, who has found the ruled out any german boots on the ground. but also for now, he's ruling out providing this very system that was in question in this very conversation. so this is very much a russian conclusion that fits into the russian narrative, the chief political ed room chandler closer thank you.
