the 5 am and charter, hey that mid day and cairo, and one in the afternoon here in moscow. welcome to the news hour on the archie. russia is pushing for the safety and release of all hostages, still held by some months after 4 months of war in gaza. that is, according to president, who's hosted russia's top jewish officials for talks of the criminal. it was the soonest you to, to the level of newest we can following the escalation of the situation in the middle east. russia is doing everything you can to help those being held hostage. it is well known that our foreign ministry is engaging with the political wing of i'm us, and we have already seen some results of this work. of course, firstly, we pay attention to russian citizens, but then also to citizens of other countries. this also applies to the elderly and to their family members who have been through the holocaust. as i said,
5:02 am
some results have been achieved, but it is necessary to continue these efforts. that's what we're doing. and i wanted to discuss the details of this work with you. you might as well us secretary of state. i'm thinking he's in israel for talks with officials there. but some in the nearby westbank are far from happy to see the american foreign policy chief in the region. a number of i'm very low codes in the run my life even burden the images of mister blinking ahead of his visit. i made a heavy police presence, protesters march through the streets, hurrying signs telling the us, diplomats, he's not welcome. some of those rallying said nothing positive can tell them from blinking strip as long as washington keeps barking. israel's assaults on gas. so firstly, this stand emphasizes our rejection of blinking this visit as he is a partner in the war of annihilation against the palestinian people,
5:03 am
which he clearly expressed since the 1st day through his participation in the israeli war council. little with the secondly, we aim to assure the palestinian peoples denunciation of this visit, given that during his 5 visits to the palestinian territories, he was obviously declaring his defense of the israeli stance and crimes. we call on the world to take responsibilities to stop the war of annihilation imposed on our palestinian people in gaza. on sunday, lincoln's diplomatic to our accounts of israel's prime minister has rejected the terms of a new cease fire. i'm prisoners swap the width and most of us standing officials say more than 27700 people have been killed in the enclave since october 7th. ortiz, middle east, corresponding maria phenomena takes us through the latest sets of talks held for that's almost 80 days since the last exchange that led to the release of $110.00 is really hostages, from captivity in guys of his most recent proposal would be kind of breaks for the
5:04 am
paving, the way to the return of all other captives home, or at least some of them. but what did send yeah. who did talk about again, promises to destroy, have mass all of come out as not just part of it should be the continuation of the military pressure is a necessary condition for the release of the hostages. surrendering to her mazda is delusional demands that we heard. now, not only won't lead to freeing the captives, it will just invite another massacre. it will invite a major disaster on the state of israel, but none of our citizens would want to accept that. he also said that he instructed the i g f to act and that i phone, which is the major c t in does a south the area near the diction boulder where more than a 1000000 palestinians crowding now including those who had to flee the fight. and her students is in the north, so cold, internally, displaced so many of them. and they are now how they're an unbearable conditions.
5:05 am
and that does not sound like a piece plan earlier on wednesdays. really defense minister at the meeting with the us secretary of state or visits as well. now said the answer of how mass was written in such a way that israel will not have a choice but to reject it. he also struck just like things in yahoo, that is where i will continue. it's helping ration in guys. the because disagreement between the sides is ro made is clear. it is all new or ready to offer a short pause in fighting while from us in mind that the idea of to stop the war completely so far, no vibe of the agreement is reached and it seems that her mouth is not the only one . israel has disagreements with washington and it's an yeah, jose dude has mentioned it was jealous earlier on wednesday, couple of hours ahead of the press conference of blinking, who is in israel again as part of his middle is tour, a has declared to promote peace in gaza the 2 politicians had pressure as in
5:06 am
different towns as well with into the speaking in jerusalem and blinking and telling me that that is also surprising. and they could be some tensions between the 2 allies that the meeting with these really presidents early on wednesday blinking rates are a to the need to release remaining hostages, which is close to impossible if israel rejects have masses proposal. and also blinking and directory mentioned the idea of the palestinian state that israel has long been rejected, including after the war and gas and started again. the fates of the potential deal with my mouse isn't clear, but on thursday, israel's war cabinet is set to meet to formerly discuss the offer. and we might expect to hear some news after that to maintain. so let's just go back to choose day of that is when the us house of representatives failed to pass a republican leg bill to provide a separate $17000000000.00 aid package to israel and other democrats. they're pushing for a broader deal that would also include yet more money for ukraine. the congresswoman
5:07 am
alexandria castillo cortez demanded. washington stop sending cash to a drill. well, palestinians are being killed in gales. this is not more. this is slaughter. and yet, after all this destruction and devastation but he has been nothing yahoo government is still nowhere close to their stated objective of destroying him off every day. americans should not tolerate this squandering of our resources without oversight on such an inhumane and effective operation. especially when we are living paycheck to paycheck. the american journalist tucker carlson has a notice that his highly anticipated interview with the russian president 12 or 11 p m g m t today, thursday, exclusively on his self titled network. earlier the criminal explained wife loved him or put and chose to accepts carlson's request for an interview in moscow. and
5:08 am
you want me to tell us some stunts differs from the west and media. it's not for russian at all. no. is it pro ukrainian? rather it's pro american, but at least he stance makes a contrast to one of those traditional anglo american media. a while mr. carlson's teaser, a nice been posted on the x platform has garnered just under 100000000 views. the bach lot show for his one on one with president put and how spread brussels some e u. lawmakers are no calling for the american journalist to be sanctioned for visiting most of them. discussing why the west doesn't want to hear what the russian leader has to say. here's retired us congressmen turn political commented around paul on his podcast. co host don norman cabins. i think the people who want to be in power . i believe they are the people that don't care about law and constitution. they think that they can ignore that. so they,
5:09 am
they try to silence people by either ridicule or say, in your own patriotic or you're telling a lie. that's what you're tapes. the most is the fact that he's thrived by breaking the chains of the mainstream media. he's thrive because people are starved for information. and that's exactly what the latest don't want. because they're restored, terry and at heart. they don't want you to even hear the other side. well, we also got reaction from us journalists and political analysts. john, for only he is of the use, some e. u. government's have gone into to tell attorney and load over what used to be called freedom of the press. we just on the stand, europe is a very different place than it was. you know, 4 years ago it's become a total terry. it'd be very clear about that. you know, let's not shy away from making such a strong statement. there is no freedom of the press in europe today, like on the major live on the other national levels. national media are controlled by the government and they only promote the government narrative, the governments of york,
5:10 am
they consider russians to be their main enemy. and anyone who tries to give russia a platform to explain itself, of course, is going to be labeled a traitor anatomy and they will try to sanction and attacks and destroy the person . therefore they're going after tucker carlson. this is the new reality of your voice. we've your has gone back to the thirty's. meanwhile, x platform owner in most cases, react to 2 calls from some figures for the arrest of tucker carlson. he stays those calling for the journalist to be detained. should themselves be arrested for on tucker carlton's visit. the most one, the west reactions to it can be found on our website. the if there is no palestinian states, there'll be no normalizing of ties. that's the blunt message from saudi arabia to israel, despite pressure from washington for re uh, to improve relations with the nothing. yeah. who government ortiz, caleb not been,
5:11 am
brings us the story, a biden's held for a tri lateral deal between the united states. israel and saudi arabia. doesn't seem to promising re, i'd recently made a statement pouring cold water on some of the big talk coming out of the white house at this point. they say the palestinians, legitimate rights come 1st and that recognizing israel is off the table unless there is a resolution of the palestinian question. the kingdom has communicated its firm position to the us administration. that there will be no diplomatic relations with israel unless an independent palestinian state is recognized on the 1967 borders with east jerusalem as its capital. now this statement came as clarification from the saudis. after john kirby said that there was an interest in normalizing relations with israel when discussing negotiations about releasing the hostages. at the same time, we were before the 7th of october and us still now having discussions with our country pos in the region as well. and saudi arabia, obviously,
5:12 am
the 2 key ones about trying to move forward with the normalization arrangements between israel and saudi arabia. so those discussions are ongoing as well. we certainly received positive feedback from both sides that they are willing to continue to have those discussions. but that is a separate track and not from related specifically to trying to get this extended humanitarian pause in place. both are really important though. well, the saudis say that's just not true. might be a bit of optimistic thinking on the white house as part, but it's not much more. so the past 3 years, the vitamin ministration has been trying to get countries in the middle east and in the muslim world to recognize israel. but it hasn't been happening. let's recall when by them 1st took office, how optimistic he seemed about the middle east. i believe the palestinians is rarely equally deserved to live safely and securely and enjoy equal measures of freedom, prosperity,
5:13 am
and markers. my administration will continue our quiet and relentless diplomacy toward that end. i believe we have a genuine opportunity to make progress and i've committed to working for the vitamin ministration. has wrapped up nothing but failures when it comes to the vital region. but donald trump, his predecessor pointed to the abraham accords as a step forward. the abraham accords involved 4 countries in the arab world, recognizing israel and establishing diplomatic relations. trump and his allies continue to point to the abraham accords as the way forward with arab states. recognizing his rail and coming to terms with its existence. these agreements prove that the nations of the region are breaking free from the failed approaches of the past. today, signing such history on a new course. and there will be other countries very, very soon that will follow these great leaders that many expected that the next move was indonesia, a muslim country with
5:14 am
a large population outside of the middle east joining the a cords next. however, it hasn't happened despite the fact that the buying administration has consistently phrase the abraham accords. they've been pretty much dead in the water since october 7th. at this point with israel bombing gaza around the clock, muslim countries are not excited to have a relationship with the jewish state. one will recall how just before october 7th, jake sullivan was praising the call in middle east regional conflicts that change pretty quickly. the middle east region is quieter today. then it has been in 2 decades now. challenges remain. ron's nuclear weapons program. the tensions between israelis and palestinians. but the amount of time that i have to spend on crisis and conflict in the middle east today compared to any of my predecessors going back to 911, is significantly reduced. i think it's very important to
5:15 am
note that this is, is an incredibly volatile time in the middle east. i would argue that we have not seen a situation as, as dangerous as the one we're facing now across the region since at least 1973 biden administration. seems to break almost every thing that it touches. when biden took office, he said he would end the war in the am at the saudis were coming to the table. but now look at the situation in the country. the who is these are designated as terrorist, the united states, the united kingdom are bombing. yeah. but the many armed forces will confront the american british escalation with escalation of our own. and we will not hesitate to carry out the comprehensive, unaffected military operations and retaliation to any british american foolishness against our beloved you haven't. of the many armed forces further confirmed that old partitioned american ships and the red and the re being sees, remain legitimate targets as long as the american british aggression against the country continues with the whole thing is designated as terrorists,
5:16 am
humanitarian aid workers, and saudi arabia cannot get paid, the transactions are blocked. saudi arabia would like to make a deal, but its hands are tied. the lower, i guess, tillman, and that was long as you buy. so we got idea, it was the united states and you, okay. well, it's not actually. so do you order because the one that has a collect, any deal has to be stuck between them any time between the, the, the, get any themselves on his way to between the so the, i don't, i just, when i was what i mentioned the view is in boy and him, and he said the soon as we get the disk agent in that it see that so not and then that kind of community would focus to bring peace in them. and so is that i'd activate the black to me. yeah. many people with the black, it means that they have the somebody that, that they have been, it could be just sort of like that in a matter of minutes if they were the escalade and that action in that it's a thought to get in. is it any shape or for them to be ok? i guess is that i have so they want to many so slow,
5:17 am
but that attack against the is that i went by and campaigned in 2020 he for trade. donald trump says unpredictable. dangerous and bringing instability. and if one looks at how the bind administration has handled things and how they've spun out of hand, it looks like he's going to need to find a new angle. this time, caleb bobbin bar to new york. just staying with the story a little longer a so the foreign policy specialist told us the re of is seeking to reaffirm its position on p geo political issues while making sure that it does not take orders from washington. i think what sort of review is trying to do is trying to rectify, rectify its relations and try to address if there are people. uh, that may have misunderstood the sound of the position. so, or people have deliberately taking, taking this out a position out of context and to kind of conceptualize in the way they want. and in other words, that, you know, we are very western officials will say that we are very happy with the fact that
5:18 am
site or radia is almost in the customer, normalizing relations with israel. notwithstanding the, the atrocities that are taking place now. and as i know, of course, this is i want to make this publicly very clear. i think what this, that would be for a frustration was that it was made within the circles, discreetly, but then publicly it seems to be they are being instrumental lives in other ways. and then the saudis are not going to just on an item. you might think they're going to just rectify this position and they're going to make their position clear and it's been consistent. and let me just say also one thing, if i may, you know, a great deal of people have been following the saudi statements. but they have been cherry picking what they want and out of it. so i agree that historically historic as a researcher and this i've seen this, not that i've seen this, but i've researched that. how long it's been. it's been decades for them saying
5:19 am
that we want to have good relations with israel. we want to have peace with israel . we want to have normalization with these are on, but there's always that. but, but the protestant issue has to be result. but there has to be a part of sidney interstate, but there has to be a just settlement that's to attention to south asia on a big day and pockets with millions heading to the poles this thursday to elect their new parliament. the criminal vote comes and made some turbulent, political and security events including a series of terror attacks on the sentencing. a former prime minister and opposition leader and run, come to decades in prison are to charlotte to pinsky takes us through. what's at stake in the main play is all names you may have heard before. no. is sharif a form of 5 minutes to is back is the head of the pocket. stone was the meek. if he wins, he will become pm for full time pledging to make pockets done great again of to

what he claims was use of ruin will not allow for what's there's like him wrong. com and his party to rule pakistan again, they have ruined the country. we will rebuild spike as time another contender is belong to the doughty leader of the pocket stone people's policy. he's previously served as a country is minister of foreign affairs. and he's the latest and the book has a dari political dynasty to seek power. some parties want to divide you based on religion of those based on your sex, or if miss city, the pakistan people's policy is the only policy which wants to serve you with that discrimination. then of course, does the elephant in the room in wrong con, ousted from power in 2020 to the full of crickets. a is languishing behind, balls of the being convicted of everything from 4 to an improper marriage. he's bought from standing in his party p t. i has been perched by the authorities even

it's elect to low go a court kick backwards fund, and now it's kind of, it's a force to run this independence. these are the main faces in a race. it's crowded there. awesome. 14 parties on the ballot. so what's the wood on the street map galaxy not a i don't have any hope for this election because of how things are being done. how one political party is being targeted. what is being done to iran con is making pockets, don, lose respect in the international community. nobody respects pockets done. they think anything can be done in pockets done not what would be, as you heard back there's a lot and so it is all cheering over. and that's because back a soul is being played by a host of issues. rising inflation is hate pockets. fraud, with the cost of basic food steps more than doubling the countries all, some simply in fact and
5:22 am
a deal with the am s is due to run out around the same time as any new government takes office. what economic pessimism is high facing bucket stones democracy is low . one question that keeps being off is whether external forces are playing a role in this election. khan has accuse the us of being that force. how many a company come to america has? oh, not american, but a foreign country icons name. i mean from the fulton country, received a message. they say that our anger will banish him wrong, con loses this no confidence vote. that of course is denied by washington with respect to the comments that were reported. not gonna speak to private diplomatic exchanges, other than to say that even if those comments were accurate as reported, they in no way shows united states taking a position onto the leader of pakistan on a be that maybe so. but at the time when the u. s. is increasingly important thing
5:23 am
itself in the middle east focused on is a power that it wants on its side and may seek to will that influence upon who have a witness? the selection will have a lot to contend with, not just the moans from the white house. political violence has already waste its head in the days leading up to the pole. the focused on a country in which some 40 percent of people live in poverty has a long and difficult road to travel to recover the window takes all they say that could prove to be quite a handful. well speaking of tensions, they are heating up to an east of freight after e. c o. p. a recently singled
5:24 am
a controversial deal with the separatist republic of somalia land, the government of somalia, which does not recognize some of the alonda as an independent states. slum the agreement that would give you access to the red sea, the somalia, and president and huff threatened to go to war if necessary. um, the fuel being prime minister is now trying to done play the crisis e. c, o, b, a does not acknowledge war against any country. in principle. however, some forces are trying to incite conflict between the 2 nations, which should not happen. the peace of somalia is the peace of the c o. p, a. the development of somalia is the development of our country. we believe we are brothers. yeah. tensions between the neighboring east african nations switch have been simmering for decades, recently flared up and made a sharp decline and commercial shipping through the red sea due to a tax on vessels by militants. from yemen and enter the u. s. which some,
5:25 am
unless state is seeking to stir up, yet another regional conflict to promote its own interest. yours are t shaped bones. with the breakdown when you hear about a conflict between 2 strategically important african nations, it's always worth taking a little deeper. when you do surprise, surprise, uncle sam has been at work stimulating this court and sewing division. and this isn't exactly breaking news. washington's been stirring up trouble in the region since 2007, with millions of dollars pumped into some of the land by us and jose, purely to fund democracy. not for example, to counter growing chinese influence in the region. it would have come to the us to show them that we have the same enemy. and our long term strategy is we want to be closer to democracies and market economies like the us. we are countering china and the chinese influence in the horn of africa. and we deserve u. s. government help,
5:26 am
watson for the us. i hear you say, well, let's take a look at some of the land strategically important position on the map. it occupies some prime real estate along the gulf of aidan, near the entrance to the above. all month, deep straight, which just so happens to be a major ceiling per which almost a 3rd of the world's shipping cost is, of course the who it is in the m and a recently highlighted, just tell vulnerable these waters are what it all seems kind of familiar, right, think of taiwan and you'll get the picture and just like, and type pay the us is trying to ride to horses. it was. and that usually ends badly. the united states recognizes the federal republic of somalia as sovereignty, unity and territorial integrity, which includes some of the land. we believe the status of some of the land is an issue for somalis, including somali lenders to decide, i want to know you and members actually recognize some of the land as a sovereign state. guess who do you have you go to taiwan?
5:27 am
and while the us is all about integrity of borders under rules based order elsewhere, it seems more than happy to celebrate the new found friendship between these 2 legally own recognized territories. a great to see taiwan stepping up its engagement in east africa in a time of such tremendous need. taiwan is a great partner in health education, technical assistance and more. despite washington's a power and support for democracy in somalia allowed us actually single tediously backed an e d o pitting military incursion into the region back in 2007. it seems washington's la current morality knows no bounds in africa, asia, or in ukraine. and when it comes to international law, washington can seemly make up the rules as it goes along. navigating a financial world, growing ever more complicated. it's a thursday visit to the cost of everything studios next, state coast for christy. i'm guess ahead. in moments,

[000:00:00;00] the no diagnosis strikes fear into the hearts of patients more than the dreaded c word cancer. it is a war we all fear and yet every day, more of us are forced to face it. unfortunately, it is becoming more more common as a world health organization hasn't feel that it has overtaken heart disease as the biggest killer globally. the growth in the incidence of cancer parallels the industrialization and chemical eyes ation of the world. the more developed the country is, the more cancer, there is the higher per capita income, the higher incidence of cancer. i'm crisp and you're watching the cost of
5:30 am
everything we're today. we're going to be faced with the cost of cancer. cancer is the 2nd leading cause of death in the us. but luckily, today, many kinds of cancer can be prevented or caught early. leading risk factors for preventable cancers, our smoking, getting too much uv radiation being overweight and drinking too much alcohol. at this point, one and every 3 people you know, will have cancer in their lifetime, which is a horrifying statistic, but has cancer survival rates go up. 2 and a price tags of life saving treatments, monthly drug costs may reach a $100000.00, causing money to struggle with the high costs, even worse. others are completely priced out of even the hope for cure low income
