about the rest of it when the stand that the trump piece and very much into the page of negotiations will not happen immediately. and they wouldn't be easy. first and foremost, because a bunch of of pacing, there's no, it needs to pass them to negotiate with. and he's definitely not the, the one who's going to make concessions at the same time where hearing from deputy for administer gate at home today. he's saying that most cuz he's ready for dialogue with washington, according to rep, called the administration of the us president. donald trump is demonstrating a interest in resuming dialogue with russia. so mosca is ready to discuss the supplements in ukraine, but only on equal tons of cope had said that russia and the united states have set and contacts us or that foreign policy developments. but he refused to disclose any detail saying that they do not make sense. so according to the pope communication

channels, existence, the work is in progress. and there is, but there is no shadow of contact between preaching and trump kids. but i mean, no body is burning out. that's as the situation becomes clear if they will be agreements on that particular mindset. and there are also many talks about the uh, uh, tools coming unix security conference would be ukrainian sacrament will be discussed, of course, but a representative for ukraine in russia keys kind of said that the us piece plants we prayed wouldn't be presented at the conference. okay. you'll get something valuable with all the context there. thank you very much. reporting from us go. the trumpet minutes ration has given federal workers until the end of the day to decide whether to opt into its deferred resignation program. president donald trump's plans to force the government staff to resign is left many stressed and worried. more than 2000000 of them are in the firing line and some have decided to fight back, as well as on jordan reports from washington dc. as part of what he was president,

donald trump calls his ambition to make the federal government much smaller. we're getting all of the cancer cancer cancer caused by the by the trump had the office of personnel management offer a buyout deal to more than 2200000 federal workers under fork in the road. employees can stay home and get paid for 8 months, but they must put their jobs that the workers unions have sued. and the buyout plan is on hold until a federal court hearing on monday. we don't think it's on any kind of sound legal funding. in particular, this was an a tactic to scare federal employees and to try to force them to make decisions that were, are not only bad for them, but bad for the american people. administration, officials say at least $65000.00 civil servants have already agreed to quit. but

public policy experts say that's not enough to save the government more than $100000000000.00 a year in salaries and benefits. they also say a 1994 law caps by out at $25000.00. less than half of what would be owed to the average work or taking the trump deals. that politicians, especially those representing thousands of federal workers, say the president has a reputation for not following through on his word, don't be full and he's tricked hundreds of people with that offer. if you accept that offer and resign hills, if you just like you slip the contractors with the buyout offer, now tied up in court challenges. federal workers, whether they want to take it or not, say they're in limbo, and ultimately so are the hundreds of millions of americans who count on them to provide everything from social service payments are classroom community to

to time. and we have been facing grave difficulties maintaining the power plants and providing the necessary spat pots that for the lifting of sanctions will be an incentive. it is not likely that people would notice a rapid improvement in the sector even fall a crime. it's a mats and international companies step in rehabilitation of the pilot infrastructure and takes months if not years. now, the major issue is fuel the fuel is available. we can reach a full 1000 megawatts capacity. but that's too long. the wait for many syrians, the rebuilding and reconnecting, what they can, and many parts of the country, but you're all good are using alternative solutions like solar panels. the government says it is by other ties in development of the solar potential by attracting investors in planning logic in solar projects. so i cannot afford it and has to keep her children out of school and continue to button garbage to stay warm . as the sun goes down, the entire neighborhoods in fayetteville, dark, exhibit trimmers of light that you see it on this are from solar panels and dr.

a head on alpha 0. how this traditional clothing in ukraine is taking on a new style in importance and essentially slight against the washer and bar salon at close the gap on rivals ram driven expense weekend. and here's how details on that coming up with peter interest the

ukranian designers and artisans are taking a centuries old style of embroidery and updating it as a symbol of national pride at a time of war. or correspondence in rome,

cotton has more from the capital, key of the ones reserved for special occasions. these clothes have now taken on a very different meaning as rushed up, mounted a full scale invasion of the ukraine. it 3 years ago, russian president vladimir putin, cold, ukrainian statehood, a fiction, many people, hazel, that of the attempt to deny the culture and history, but it had the opposite effect. ukrainians began to deal deeper into their own history. determined to preserve the cultural heritage. you also believe up to just the name, especially during the will when we need to defend this identity. interest in folk, traditional culture naturally grows. this is true both for people who have been and remain involved in it, as well as for those who previously did not know how to expressed identity. the style of clothing is called vision coat, which at loosely means embroidered and dates back to the 19th century. each region of ukraine has a unique style,

but these clothes aren't just alt effects to be displayed in museums, people with the traditional clothing as a symbol of pride and resistance, and the shots and they move in. uh, i think this is an incredibly beautiful tradition. and within it, there is something very important for women. a woman embroidering her own shirt was a tradition passed down from generation to generation. each one of these patterns has a very specific meaning to the local culture. this one, for example, is about the fatality of the land. this is the harmony between 9th and i. and this one, for example, is the tree of life. now what you kind of design is all doing is updating the symbols to reflect the new reality that way. once the embroider, we celebrated things like agricultural heritage, some styles now reference the war in new to greens and in the style of military uniform. many of this, and that's half of all, i think the beginning of the full scale war had a significant impact on this before that people often chose embroidered shirts for

celebrations. however, the war has effected all aspects of life, including fashion embroidered shirts started being made in this modern style. fashion often references the engine in modern but a and ukraine. the old symbols have taken on a more patio take style, reflecting the mood of the people who say they are determined not to surrender rugs on how to 0, keep less time for your support with peter stomach. so thank you very much. jason heard some of the philadelphia eagles of the new super bowl champions of to they demolished back to back when is the kansas city chiefs for the nfl is biggest prize? the chase applying for an unprecedented 3rd straight title. but the not even come close as the eagles after the dominates of the game in new orleans. the defense was especially storm with chew school's back, patrick my own 66 times and intercepted twice, eagles, cold about coats through

a super 46. you'll touch dump off to help fuel 5022 when it was revenge for the eagles, who narrowly lost to the chief except the super bowl 2 years ago. sometimes you have to step is you have to waste your time, you know, dealing with dealing with all the you know, everything that came with the last super bowl as great as the performance was, it wasn't enough to when i think going through those emotions and processing those things and processing that experience, little little graceland me and enhance my desire to win. they tell me lives as a rule, as, as the worst still in the world. i'll stick with you the rest of your career. i mean, um those are, these will be the 2 losses that will motor. they need to be even better. so the rest of my career because you only get so few of these and you have to capitalize on these. and um, they hurt probably more than the wins. so good president, donald trump watched the game from the stands at the see for them. it was the 1st

time assessing us presidents had attended a super bowl rep of kendrick level headlines the whole time show with $23.00 time grants. montana's champion, serena williams put in a cameo. don't think the fool no, don't sink from the homes on the chief soft with a crushing defeat. we spoke to nfl board cost to richard grades and austin. how can so so that he can recover from such a heavy loss? what if anybody can they can remember patrick and holmes the face of the nfl. this was, he's picked soup about a parents. he's only 29 years old in fairy. he's best is still lay out there ahead of him. he's already won 3 super bowl rings and does he? i'm is chief. so organization of being here before, let's not forget. 4 years ago they were thrashed in super bowl 55. by the 10th of a buck in is the very next year. they go to spies the i see championship game, and then the subsystem 3 years, they be one of the teams in the big jobs at the super bowl. so they know what it takes to turn it around, but there be a lot of sees and it has to be

a lot of self reflection. and a lot, lot of looking within the organization. what they can do to turn this around to getting into the next season, a bar salon, i have close. the gap on the legal lead is round madrid off. the beating sylvia also took an early lead, threw up 11 dog skin and used the top score. it was 19 so for the season, severe equalize with football. so when 2nd funds offer the break. so mean low pays school english these fish such as the game that i've seen. yeah. then maybe 31. so the castle land tub. obviously fix side have to pay the last off now with $10.00 man off the low base, the soon a straight rate for that will not be challenge both ways on. so when for one method and it's a $1.00, it's just the rails the pressure is bouncing on top of the boss and post the comedies of he watched the side get knocked out of the english as a tough for the sake of ramsey foot, but i hate doing just these things into them. that's what we'll do. i just made it to now after the break, talking to me signing with the stove,

pull the gold back and stuff, it's done, but it's too little too late for space. but the winning to one and then for the 5th round, for the 1st time in a decade, premium. the lead is livable, was done by plymouth beside boston living and 2nd tier. but given a penalty for a hobby, it'd be a handful. wind, hardy stepped up and scold to give some of the lead off the 53 minutes. one know the final school level house of the composition called us all could i says one, he's 1st into attendance, startling. lots of them the top seed was up against alex simon. know in the final, and he what stood a funny sound from the australian to win to fits the one becoming the 1st spanish champion in the 2 of them. it's 52 year history. it was also 17 career sizes for the 21 year old. how could as well now it's a done for mix, the counselor opened. and that's what this tells me is that i'll have another up that a little bit later. so all right, we look forward to that and that is peter stem. it. thank you very much, peter. a very quick break for us and we are right back at the top of the hour with

more international news itself is 0. stay with the manipulated by those and power rolling. this selection is unique and we've seen anything like it for no pressure. they were instrumental in helping the president when the election, driven by still interested play as best with their pastor, non profits for people susceptible to government control. if propaganda is designed to inflame and defense, the way that the story is being told, not right, and it's not accurate from social networks to legacy media. the listening post exposes the forces behind the headlight on out just there is a fairly challenging place to work from. as a journalist, even though you're saying you can't do it, it's not allowed to, you're still pushing, they're always pushing a boundaries for faithfully mazda.
