i asked him what he made of lord cameron's call for a sustainable ceasefire in gaza.rvention by two countries that have been the staunchest supporters of israel in europe and i think what they mean is that however much we all want this awful fighting to end as soon as possible, there is no point in an immediate ceasefire which will only break down because hamas will continue to attack israel and israel would respond. so a sustainable ceasefire is one that comes at the point where the two sides are willing to stop the fighting. in the meantime, there is a very strong call from the two foreign ministers to stop this terrible killing of civilians, that israel should be conducting the war in a different way, more targeted, and also a sustainable ceasefire needs a plan for what happens after the fighting and it is the clearest statement yet i think of the uk approach on what that should be. i5 i think of the uk approach on what that should be.— that should be. is there an implication _ that should be. is there an implication here _ that should be. is there an implication h

in a joint article in the sunday times the british foreign secretary, lord cameron, and the german foreigner, annalena baerbock, said they'd support a ceasefire that was sustainable in the long—term, and pushed for more humanitarian pauses to get aid in and hostages out. meanwhile, france has already taken a stronger position on the war. the french foreign minister reiterated calls for an immediate ceasefire in gaza, saying too many civilians are being killed. let's get more on that diplomatic push for a ceasefire in gaza and go live to lord peter ricketts, who was the national security advisor to david cameron's government between 2010 and 2012 and more recently the former british ambassador to france. welcome to the programme. what does a sustainable ceasefire mean? what are britain and germany calling for? i think it is a significant intervention by the two countries that have been the staunchest supporters of israel in europe. i think what they mean is that however much we all want this awful fighting to end as soon as possible, there is no point with an immediate ceasefire which would

cameron, he visited both kyiv and odessa, which shows, let's say, a special interest in the successfulntation of the black sea strategy on the part of ukraine, this is a very important point, so i think that in this direction... they will help us and work, just as far as the black sea is concerned, and why i am talking about this, because this, at least a part of this act, and a separate action of this act. if we speak like that in theatrical language, during which there should be this war at sea, the continuation of this war at sea and the reduction of the capabilities and capacities of the black sea fleet of russia, then of course it is the continuation of support, which should now include this fourth action not just transfer arms to ukraine, and an increase in the production of weapons for ukraine and an increase in the production of weapons by ukraine, which is also an important point. which should not be forgotten, because it is also our duty to increase the defense capability, i think that this has this action is next. thank you, and to use this theatrical terminology, if a weapo

so, as for the visit of lord cameron, again, according to what is being discussed around this meeting it was, firstly, that some kind of green light was again given to both zelensky and andriy ermak, to the head of zelensky's office, that you continue further, that you need to understand what is really britain also has quite good historical ties with poland and there are opportunities to influence, for example, the future cabinet of donald tusk, that is, they work very actively through soft power in central asia, the balkans, eastern europe, they invited chinese investments to sri lanka, and even there are dual -use chinese investments, that is, there it could be such a paramilitary sphere, he really announced in 1313 that a golden era was coming in relations between. and china, and indeed we are observing, but there there are all sorts of processes, scandals , conflicts, but trade turnover between britain and china is growing right before our eyes, that’s what ’s most important, probably, but these are the last days, i want to add another element to our conversation, sometimes you ca
