3:12 am
called for talks between moscow and keith. in february, beijing release, what it called peace proposals for, ending the war. which included calling for a cease fire and an offer to mediate charles stratford as more from ukraine's capital. there's no denying that this telephone conversation between president zalinski and president g is not highly significant. the 1st conversation that they've had. we are still a long way off in certainly in ukraine and amongst many of ukraine's western backers. out of china being seen as an honest, neutral arbiter in potentially trying to bring a lasting piece to this crisis. interestingly, we had already comment from zalinski on his telegram channel, and he said that there was no peace would be found at the expense of territorial compromise. he said no one wants peace more than the ukrainian people. we are on our land and we are fighting for our future. and interestingly, he said that during this conversation,
3:13 am
particular attention had been paid to ways of possible interaction with the aim of establishing a just unstable piece. now of course, china has put together a 12 point so called piece plan that was made public in february and zelinski was very quick to denounce that, not calling it a plan in any way towards peace. it's all to do with territories still for the ukrainians. zelinski repeatedly says that until russia withdraws from all the occupied lands, including crimea, he's not prepared to sit down, at least with the russians, and talk about a lasting solution. so as i say, this isic significant, this conversation that's been had, but there is still a lot of work to be done and is going to be interesting to see how the european community and the white house, how the us really flesh is over this conversation. and way that they interpreted it trying to form some sort of solution to at least get some potentially presidents

3:15 am
their job. the president can no longer ignore by not negotiating. my county has more now from washington, dc. well, as certainly as a tactical decree for kevin mccarthy's demonstrated that he can, coupled together a very desperate republican party within congress. he managed to get the boats where many doubted that he could given the antipathy of some hard line republicans . and now he's pos is bo, which essentially in addition to raising or agreeing to raise the debt ceiling limit, also attempts to roll back many of president biden's legislative accomplishments over the past couple of years. in this bill you see are ripping away clean energy tax breaks, reducing or removing completely biden's attempt to to guarantee student loans. so they all, many elements in this which are basically attempting to strip down the biden agenda
3:16 am
. now what mccarthy has done by getting this bill passed even the fact that it's not going to go through the senate, and even if it ever did it would be detailed by president biden himself. he has opened his salvo, he's now trying to put himself in a position where republicans have the answer to the debt ceiling problem. now it's up to the democrats to compromise. president biden says he's willing to talk future budgets with the republicans, but he is not prepared to discuss past budgets, which is essentially what raising the debt level. feeling is attempted to deal with time for short, breakdown out there when we come back, guns and gangs, and haiti un says between the levels of a water and one brazil former president says he is responsible for the storming of government buildings in john one ah,
