us out is there a well tells the story of the minds of many secrets, shift motor, one desk, the surface fi on elders era the i think they have to make peace that people have been killed and i think they have to make peace. us president donald trump says a safe spot and ukraine could happen. the key will have to make concessions. the voluntary johnson, this is all just here a lot. so coming up, residents automatically. lensky says nobody wants peace more than ukrainians. he's been meeting the us treasury secretary, israel issues more threats to resume the warrant. garza is katara in egypt trying

to rescue from charles ceasefire agreement. and more than 40000 kind of students forced from the occupied westbank not to nations described as along the us president donald trump has said that he and the russian president vladimir putin have agreed to meet and begin towards the end. to warn you, crane us off the trump spoke with putting on the phone for over an hour last had called ukrainian impressive vanessa lensky fellow trump said a c spot in ukraine was likely in the not too distant future. but keith would have to make concessions. what are you going to have to do? what he has to do, but you know, in his poll numbers aren't particularly great to put it mildly, is got a country where, you know, it's been savaged and attacked and he's got an army that's been very,

very brave. actually, despite the fact that, you know, we've given them, in my opinion, 350000000000 dollars, that's what the real number is. you don't hear that number. and europe is given in my opinion, a $100000000000.00. and they've done it in the form of a loan, and i have a secretary of treasury right now is actually quite brave. he's over in ukraine on the train. and there's a lot of things happening around that train that aren't so good. and he's going there to get a document done where we're going to be in a sure that we're gonna, in some form, get this money back because we're putting up far more money than europe. and europe isn't far more danger than we are. we have an ocean in between. europe has nothing in between. that's cost to might honda now in washington dc. first we might tell us more about this phone call with that in the future. what it appeared to

be very warm. uh president trump is saying that the president booting is interesting and the interested in striking a deal interested in some form of seats by saying that he wants peace. so very clearly, trump opening a negotiation process as to the, with the russian president saying as well that he's going to be meeting the russian president face to face in the very near future. possibly, he says meeting in saudi arabia and denise the saudi crown prince. so this is now getting traction, it would appear the trunk lid efforts to get some kind of settlement to an end to the crating wall. but it appears it will come that something of a price for the ukrainians. if the president trump the putting a finger of $350000000000.00 on what he says, the us gate ukraine, well actually what the u. s. gave ukraine was largely military hardware, other forms of logistical assistance. donald trump putting some kind of cash

trigger on this, just as he put the cash trigger on what the claims your opinions have given you claim as a loan. as he puts it, the treasury secretary sent to ukraine would appear to start to live a money back out of new credit in government. once again, difficult to live the money with much of the assistance came in the form of military hardware. we're going to have some other meetings and we'll be, i'll be dealing with president boat and largely on the phone and we ultimately expect to meet. in fact, we expect that he'll come here and i'll go there and we're going to meet also probably in saudi arabia. the 1st time we'll meet in saudi arabia, see if we can get something done. but we want to end that or that was a disaster. i might what about the us treasury secretaries visits a key, but what do we know? came out of that as well. once again, we do know that it was in a make a little meeting we were told so by the ukranian president had the reason for the

treasury secretary being the not very clear the we had donald trump saying that he was being sent that to examine what happened into the money that donald trump claims the u. s. gave to ukraine during the war, as i mentioned before, but much of this money in the form of military assistance other logistical goods. so very difficult to put a cash value on it as president trump appears to be doing, or indeed put a cash value on the 100000000 that president trump claims europe has loaned to ukraine. so he appears to be trying to get some money out of this whole deal, but pressuring ukraine to give up some form of recons. can we compensation to the united states for the assistance that it has given during the war and also sitting out the terms already off of what it should be able to go see ation about and enter that will making very clear that ukraine has got to give concessions, such as no return to the territories before 2014. and also the very important

point. the us president saying that ukraine to give up its impressions of joining nato, diesel elements that russia is likely to demand in negotiations. this is being presented by the us president, not for us that mike, thank you crying in price the landscape gave his nicely address, soft to his phone call with donald trump. he said they had a substantive conversation keepers down from blame from a law firm. and that brought the president trump informed me of what boots and had told him. we believe that america strength is enough together with us and all of our partners to push russia and pollutants, a piece piece of data. she also met with us treasury secretary to prepare an agreement that will strengthen our security and to give a new impetus to our economic relation. you guys may nice, you know, stuff about of a has more on rushes reaction to all of this. now for most guy,

there are many positive comments from russia. politicians on this loan, anticipate of donald between the 2 presidents, even de, nobody's calling. it's a breakthrough. many say that all this get done or because of the best of them, it's nonsense. people here, hopefully they see the trump is actively trying to keep his promise to boot and then to the when you trade. but still, there is no way to go before any turning point seemed relations between punch in the united states. because according to the russian side, trump's pre to assess is, are responsible for the to ration of relations for too long. and patient is obviously not an easy task than to negotiate with. he never gives into ultimatums. it's home, it possible that there will be any kind of the so called to tricks change a criminal spokesman to be troops. coal also has said that russia is not discussing the issue of exchanging territories with ukraine. something that you create in presence of legitimate zalinski have previously offered, according to best called

o ukrainian units, which apparently a coupon pots on versus course region will be expelled from that. and russia is not going to make any territorial concessions retaining all the previous should take. is cranium liners. something that to create is not going to accept, but still we can see that things begin changing quite rapidly. here we can mention, there were some present, a swap between the 2 countries. so the supplied all the disagreements. there was room for courses, optimism. you'd ask all of a to z, right? most k b j crowd to use a former united states. the assistant, the secretary of state for public affairs is also the author of the red line, american foreign policy, and thomas fractured politics and fading states. he joins us now from alexandria in virginia. welcome to the program. so overall, then what do you make of america's position when it comes to the war and ukraine and donald trump's strategy to end it? well certainly um the trump administration is correct in saying that um

the, the, the, the floor is on sustainable. it needs that we need to cease fire and that at least during that negotiation, ukraine has to recognize that the russian will continue to hold some kind of, you know, it looks from ukrainian territory. i mean, missing at all the reporting that you've just done over several minutes. you know, is there any indication that trop administration, you know, is going to lean on moscow? because obviously, you know, at the heart of this, it was me, you know, russian invasion of ukraine, you know, that started this latest phase of the war. so, you know, the trump administration seems to be very strict and what it expects ukraine to do. but so far as not putting any demands on what russian needs, what, what russia needs to do in return, you mentioned, wouldn't negotiation. daphne does seem that the us to saying that nathan membership,

for example, has already off the table even before negotiations begin. that's right. perfect. we seem to be leading with the, our bottom line is as opposed to leading with a hard line and then shopping to get, you know, during the negotiation. which critically important here is that trump administration did say that ukraine is entitled to security guarantees. and those will be vitally important, but most important is, you know, who's going to be the one that guarantees ukraine security in what way and through what, uh, structure and highly problematic. because the truck ministration is saying it won't be denied states or nato that monitors the ceasefire. it will be europe, perhaps, will be the nation's, you know, but here again, it was russia, is vito power over the un security council? you know how vigilant united state the united nations will be allowed to be, you know, is, is something to be determined. he mentioned day to day. i mean,

how will these statements from trump and his officials be received by americans, nato allies, presumably with some dismay. yeah, i think obviously they see it today in brussels. it has meaning they suck troops of defense, you know, kind of begin the process of putting you created arms learning by suggesting here in, in no uncertain terms that the trump administration sees ukraine as being a european problem. not an american problem though. obviously, this is a sharp turn from the approach or the by the ministration took, you know, during it's 4 years and office, given what you say that i mean to what extent will invest already be feeling more emboldened by the advent of the new trump administration. as well, if you, if you go back to where the crisis 1st began in 2013, you know, you rush it took a chunk of ukrainian territory, paused, restarted,

the war actively of 2022 took another chunk of territory and is now seemingly prepared to pause again. you know, the real dilemma here is that if you don't have a negotiation that produces a cease fire agreement and, and your real consequences for violations, you're rushing and just, you know, take its time, you know, allow the trump administration to, to focus on something else. and then restart the war again at the time and date of which choosing so critical aspect here is to get to a cease fire get to adorable agreement, and then make sure it has appropriate enforcement mechanisms basically proudly. thanks very much. indeed for joining us. you're quite welcome, but us present, donald trump says ukraine supplies of read us materials. could be the key to a piece deal, minerals of vital components, and many new technologies. and ukraine has potentially huge reserves. iran con

reports from the don't yet region. this use mines dealt the landscape if you cranes east, but the mining sector could be powering up and going into production again. ukraine sits on 12 trillion us dollars with the breast minerals needed to power technology, including lithium and titanium. it could be arrival to china, the world's biggest current supply. and that's interesting to the us, which is wary of china, is rise globally to the famously transactional us present. donald trump and says he has found the deal he wants to make with ukraine to help and the wall. so we're looking to do a deal with your brain with giving them weapons and aid in return to read of materials and ukrainian presence. without them is lensky is open to the idea of russia. it's pot says the alms for minerals deal as some have deb, this is a sign of the us slowing down the simple for ukraine. the biggest commercially

viable array of mineral deposits. i'll also in the territories, russia has a hand ext away the west of the will rages. they include the hands that zachary's you. together. they all with a 6 trillion dollars or 53 percent of ukraine's rack of mineral deposits. but with that much money involved ukrainians, click no development of resources until the full and to the war and complete russian withdrawal. ukraine. a strategic resources only after the war. and uh, we can do it only when uh, the territory of ukraine will be de occupied when it will be liberated because manuals such resources are right now are located in the territories occupied by russia. donald trump, i said maybe ukraine will be russian, maybe not a statement that is confused many here and, but even if the will ends tomorrow,

ukraine has to be safe. an open said business, one of the many challenges to that of the landlines that russia has thrown across the east. it's slow, dangerous work. according to the mining organizations, one year of laying down and burns takes 10 years to remove. that's the t. yes, so far. another big challenge will be the full in soldiers and dead civilians in the face of those sacrifices giving up territory to most go is an emotional issue. but that's exactly what russia once, according to that public statements, at least. so getting peace through red minerals is going to be a very difficult challenge. and we're on con, how does there then that's the region. so it's a coming out just returning home after decades like jared refugees. and finally, leaving nathan shot the

a secret agent named by both israel and egypt. well, any case officer who receives catch or double age, always assume the worst truth lies. fact or fiction. most of the documents are faulty. people on the out is there a well tells the story of the mind as many secrets. i shut the motor, one desk to the surface by on al jazeera, examining the headline, assessing the discussion explorer and abundance of wells class programming. design to inform, motivates, ending by on algae 0, connecting communities adoption was never a benevolent effort. my family didn't need to be separated. my family needed to be supported. this isn't just about korea, this is a global industry opening up. the conversations would you say,

are you conferences are, do people have less stress? because there won't be this out. the forget for people who are actually facing the brunt of climate change with fresh perspectives from lesser heard voices. the stream explores the key issues of our times on algebra. the, [000:00:00;00] the watching out his hair or mind to all the headlines for us president donald trump says he and the russian president vladimir putin agreed to meet and begin towards the end. when you crank, trump, says ukraine,

we'll have to make concessions. correspondence with the cranes present. also, i spoke to donald trump, describing it as a good and detailed conversation for a minute. so lensky says he believes america strengths, push russia towards green, to cease fire. mediators are in a race against time to say, the goal is to cease 5. how may i start again and has arrived in colorado? is egypt and try to try to salvage this deal. as part of the agreement, how may i assist you to at least the next group for this? any caps is in just 3 days. time was accusing is violating the deal, and post postpone exchange is where the defense minister is. well, cats has reiterated that warrant the strip will resume if the release doesn't happened on saturday. and this also has more of this stuff from jordan's capital a month plus because he's very government and the protestant, or 30 for ben down to the air from reporting inside as well, and occupies the west back. that is really defense minister israel cath reiterating comments via is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu just the day before noting

that is how much doesn't release the captives by new local time. on saturday, the war would resume, but the defense ministers comments were a little bit more severe saying that the war would be much different in its intensity and scale, saying that quote, the gates of hell would open on gonzo, which is a little bit difficult to comprehend. given just how much carnage we witnessed in the 15 months of war, tens of thousands of palestinians killed and nearly the entirety of the gaza strip destroyed. but how much has accused israel of violating the deal in the 1st place, saying that they are holding up critical and vital humanitarian aid that is supposed to come into the strip in the form of tens, caravans and other temporary shelters to house palestinians in the interim but in the meantime, these really military is drafting a plans for the potential resumption of the war and is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu was set to visit, is really military southern command center. that's according to his really media to

talk about the next steps for what's gonna happen if this war to resume. but nonetheless, mediators are scrambling behind the scenes to try and make sure that this, these fire holds. this was a sensitive deal from the beginning that was never guaranteed to centrally than just eat off a month. and just as palestinians have relocated back to the homes of to 15 months of war fare is grand. the conflict will start to get honey. mike moved reports from alpha in southern gone, so as for any forces, maintaining a significant presence were still reporting from rough i city and just minutes after the sunset, the area started to become more of a desert. here with a lot of people who were here during the daytime, inspecting their homes just within this area. not going far away because they're still 60 percent of the area according to run by municipality under these really military control and within the range of fire are departing. the area and making their way back to their 10 site. this is part of the growing fear as the statements

and news about the possibility of the ceasefire to collapse at any time. giving the stand up in the past, 48 hours as these really monetary repeatedly failed to meet its obligations, an honor, the terms of the ceasefire. and the chief among them is the do i have the permission to allow the many of them much needed aid and basic necessities to enter the gods strip. among them beats the fuel trucks as well as the tents and the mobile homes that have not made there. we have not been allowed to enter their off. i crossing for much needed population, the northern parts of district and gaza city. all of this, coupled with the mounting fear of the ruler route to resume. there is almost a unanimous agreement among people here that as soon as these really military return the, the captives or the cap is, are being released. they're going to resume the war. and that has post on many of the people, the plans here to go back to their homes in northern part of districts and

thousands of and many of the area that been control and devastated by these really military. we're still in rough city. we're seeing much of the devastation that is causing this not only causing fear, but also much of them on a 3rd tendency of the future of this city. similar to other parts of the gaza strip . honey, my more just data from rough, acetate, palestine or not. the nations is warning that the number of palestinians being forced from the homes and occupies westbank is increasing at an alarming rate. well then 40000 had been displaced. since these were the worst. it's miniature operation within 3 weeks ago, especially the deck of a film secretly from the window is rarely soldiers arresting palestinians from their homes in the loop comp. in hebron. neighbors captured these moments in the dark of night. late night attentions are common here, but have increased since these really minute tree launched a large scale offensive in the occupied westbank in january,

storming and reading several refugee camps, including janine to cut them. and no chums. in between. the sound of explosions is really forces order, palestinians to leave notions. the one says the on sort has displaced at least 40000 people in just over 3 weeks. israel cools the military operation, iron rule and says it's aimed at routing out armed resistance fighters and preventing what it calls terrorist infrastructure from being established. but entire neighborhoods are being destroyed. israel is also carrying out air and drone strikes in these densely populated areas. homes have been demolished, infrastructure destroyed, and there is a shortage of water and medication. the latest is ready operation and the occupied westbank started just a few days after the ceasefire and goes off,

took effect. stephanie decker, or g 0, comes as of a, that is a land rights for so it's an active is he says he's ready minutes. res targeting more than just the refugee comes in the occupies westbank. that's the goal is the goal of this operation is going beyond the military goals as there's very limited 3 as mentioning as early as now working on a hidden war against defense in existence. even in the country side of that was bank and south. abram has is right, was the relation many houses of these uh and my son for the ups up. and at the same time this really fanatic settlers attacking different scene in existence all around the area there in the jungle valley. where are you originally belonged to? is building and you was all that on the palestinian finishes and especially in the north and part of the joint been very isolating the whole bunch of sending

communities i have between the areas of defend assuming of the others in the cities of their respect. so we are not only talking about the uh, the daily see in the north them the fiji comes of jimmy and motions and put cannon . but also there is the other hidden water which, which means is systematically trying to cleans as much as they can from the valve of sending people or on purpose. bank regulators have met with a delegation of catholic bishops and the companies that you've done. and the effort to resolve the ongoing conflict. fighting between the ami and m. 22 examples resumed on tuesday for to day pause. you and says more than 110000 people have been evicted from displacement comes in the east. the new obvious place to go runs in back to every 23 levels and as long as the night forcing at the house cleaning and moving voluntarily is not jerry and refugees are returning from chad in the

thousands. a decade off to fling violence. 34000 has made the journey since monday . the states is providing a temporary camp to house, return these orders, send it back to the it was off the screening finance in the region for skills, at least 40000 people since 2009 on displace around 2000000. also going to make sure i'm some neighboring countries. totally different thing to be honest that we see it to come back from the information we received from the country still facing security challenges. people in chad were telling us that our country is not secure because they benefited from us. david didn't want us to leave, but we have to come back to lunch area, even if we tie this guy in a country that's the bottom of a customer for 10 years we evaded refugee camps. now we're back in that country and we're still in camps. some of us count returned to our communities. we need somebody to go, we need some solutions to return to our homes. canadian prime minister,

just to ensure that says he's country will have an extremely strong response to us . tyrus, 35 percent tax, or steven import into the us is coming into effect in march. canada is the biggest supply with both those products for the says the duties will cause the job losses across americans by for the common growth that will trump is also tracking the separate 25 percent tire on or canadian impulse. canada will respond as appropriate in a calibrated but extremely strong way, regardless of what the us moves forward with this be very clear the conversations around a 50 for the state or a non starter. it's never going to happen. but we have to take seriously what the president is saying and full that into our thinking as we continue to stand up for canada. as one of those kind of this, 13 provincial premier is, are in washington dc. and

a display of unity as of pushing back against trumps incoming paris is the 1st time they've all gone to the us at the same time. the meeting members of congress and also reported the schedule to have a meeting at the white house. you can discuss that more on our website that's i'll just say what the. com weather is next for the inside story state the the had a lower the, the satellite image across east asia. it shows a weather front moving its way across the korean peninsula. and japan bringing significant rain to some areas that pushes out pretty quickly behind it. we've got cold air bringing move, winter weather to the likes of chicago and home shoot. it clears up behind that for the korean pin. and sheila will see some settled weather and sunshine was sold at 5

degrees celsius and temperatures all set to pick up because the north of china, beijing at 10 degrees celsius shanghai at 9 degrees. it is looking most funny here, but we will see some west. so whether developing out west and across most central areas eventually work its way in through the weekend. it is looking very wet as well across a taiwan over the next few days. now it's a dry story from much of south asia. we could see some showers coming in to bangladesh, remains while the monkey with hazy sunshine in jacka wester across the northeast of india, with some showers and thunderstorms of mountain snow as well. but for much of northern india and into pockets done, it is a very dry picture. as it is for much of the country and for a lanka, we will possibly see a shower too in columbus. the story here is sunshine. that's your weather. on the, on the pair,

this journey is taken by countless refugees fleeing danger. to meet me there, perhaps worse than death is the package of survive the syrian refugees seeking ounces, searches for disappeared. sister. mine may suit a witness documentary on that, just as the same guy is consistency fields trust for decades. the u. s. has been a global superpower, but he just said that 3 weeks president donald trump, for us to build the trends and found visual photos. so how will the 2nd to and we shake the role of the us on the world stage and kind of the world still trust for us. this is inside

the
