6:03 pm
the country, but 1st, let's go to southern gaza and speak to tarik. i will assume tarry, how much has announced that it will be returning the bodies of 4 captains held in gaza on thursday. and also that 6 living captors will be released on saturday as part of the 1st phase of the ceasefire due. does this mean that things are progressing in a promising way? now when it comes to phase one of the ceasefire deal? well, how about the rhetoric that has been presented by how much choice that they have trying to convey your message, not just only 2 videos has brought to the user, the site that they commit to comprehensively to the time. so the appointment's regarding the release of the is very tough just being stipulated to behind the toll, but during the fast phase of 55 agreement as well. so they try to completely deliver remarkable connotation that they are pointing any thoughts of the claims regarding any potential breakdown of the deal. given the fact that is spelled,
6:04 pm
if not attached to the terms of the agreement to the multiple issues. as the movement has stated before, that a number, but relations with recorded unobserved during the 1st space of the deal regarding the entry of heavy machinery and the 5 homes alongside with the numbers of 8 trucks and medical evacuations that took place. during this phase, we understand totally that the, this ongoing pro, progress made has been made on the regional pressure by immediate to spot till now we're waiting for a very translated actions by the user to decide regarding the, the commitments and promises that like given it, you're in negotiations for the 1st phase and target, there has been a respite from the constant bombing and bombardment and gaza during this cease fire . but that's also made it all the more apparent about how much of a need there is right now for shelter, for all the people there. the solution as we understand is nearby, but it's outreach at this moment. is there any further news on these mobile
6:05 pm
shelters? and these mobile homes that are so needed where you are and gaza right now. yes, definitely mobile homes and tv machinery, a highly need that uh for civilians watch really couldn't get free dates for survival. undoubtedly, mobile homes are highly required to afford and to accommodate hundreds of thousands of civilians. they can offer them a very dignified living space that could be completely provided with installation ventilation and possibly with installing electricity alongside with sunny station which could be seen as critically a temporary shelters for palestinians. for 2 years. while the deputies can be allowed to have some sense of normality and relief until the pub in a tree construction takes place while hibbon machinery high, the required reading termites, all of us that before will cause i had approximately around $250.00,
6:06 pm
hit the machines that either destroyed or damaged, or at least suffering from lack of a few lens pots. and now what has been, why d, estimated by us agencies that cause and these, we in 500 up to 1000 heavy machines that including a complete depot, those as a cranes of 6 gigabytes along side with dump trucks in order to accelerate the reconstruction efforts to start the new phase of video that will help garza to flourish again. all right, that's how does eurostar couple as i'm joining us live from girlfriend in southern garza. thanks so much talk. let's go now to note, are they in the jordanian capital? i'm on, nor what's the reaction been so far from the israeli government when it comes to this? announce, and by how much that the bodies are for captains will be released on thursday and it's 6 living captives will be released on saturday. so there's a lot of focus on the 6 living captives mohammed because this is a, you know, they, the families of those captives are breathing
6:07 pm
a sigh of relief. there was a lot of anxiety about the possibility of this, these fire not surviving long enough for them to be released. there's a lot of pressure from the families of the captives to move on to negotiations for phase 2 and to push for the release of all the cap to so the fact that the 6 remaining live cups is, would be released on saturday is welcome news of course at receiving the bodies of the captives who were killed since the beginning of the war would be a very somber occasion for everybody involved on thursday among the 4, according to hum us will be the bodies of the b bus family. you recall the father was released earlier during phase one. the mother and her 2 boys were, were declared dead by their captors in november 2023. and nor there does seem to be
6:08 pm
some momentum right now when it comes to phase one of the ceasefire. just a few days ago, many people were wondering if it was going to fall apart altogether. i want to ask you what you're hearing as far as where things stand when it comes to negotiations on phase 2 of the ceasefire. it's well, they're pretty much hanging in the air a basically how much because what we've seen right now is momentum, positive developments on phase one. but it's really also a re negotiation of terms because what is real agreed to allow in 2000. it didn't, and it basically had to do all of these maneuvers and to change the timeline of the release of captives in order to say ok, we agree to allow and some of those care of us and tense. there's a lot of pushback from the mediators to begin talks on phase 2. they're already more than 2 weeks behind schedule. and these really cabinet met yesterday evening
6:09 pm
to discuss that it did not take any decisions. the only thing that we saw coming out of that meeting is a pledge by these really prime minister not to move forward without a cabinet decision. but there is at least public pressure. and even from the opposition in israel to talk about the implementation of face to some in this right . when coalition government in tel aviv want to bring in new conditions, conditions that according to someone like but some of smart search, the minister of finance have us would never agree to like completely laying down its arms and making sure that all its leading figures are exams out of guys are giving up control of the enclave at the end and conditions like that. but really we don't have any details yet. the mediators are frustrated, but they're trying to keep a positive tone about pushing forward and making sure the parties sit on that negotiating table. all right, that's good. are they live for us from that?
6:10 pm
or danny and capital? i'm on nor thanks so much for breaking that all down for us. the senior russian and us diplomats have concluded a 4 and a half hour meeting and saudi arabia on the war in ukraine. they've agreed on appointing high level teams to help negotiate. and in to the war, european leaders and ukraine were sidelined from the talks in the all present of let him, there's lensky has slammed the meeting, calling it talks about ukraine without ukraine. us secretary of state, marco rubio says european leaders and ukraine will also be consulted on reaching an end to the ukraine war for 3 and a half years. while this conflict has raged for 3 years, while its rage, no one else has been able to bring something together like what we saw today. because donald trump is the only leader in the world to can. so no one is being sidelined here, but president trump is in a position that he campaigned on to initiate a process that could bring about an end of this conflict. and from that could
6:11 pm
emerge some very positive things for the united states, for europe, for ukraine, for the world. but for us to begin to by the end of this conflict, us national security advisor mike waltz was at the talks and that he all, he says the negotiations will focus on territorial and security guarantees for some underlying principles. this needs to be a permanent, into the war and not a temporary end, as we've seen in the past. we know just the practical reality is that there is going to be some discussion of territory and there's going to be a discussion of security guarantees. those are just yet fundamental basics uh that will, that will undergird and underlie any type of discussion. ukrainian president, voiding. there's lensky has postponed his visit to saudi arabia, which was scheduled for wednesday. he's now in the encore of, for talks with the turkish president, red chip type at the one you've got kind of in the mind,
6:12 pm
those throwing youth. any resolution must be fat and square. nothing can be done behind our backs or countries can speak of any possible solutions. however, no solution or resolution can be made without our approval. we would not invited to the meeting and saudi arabia. it was a meeting between russia and america. it came to us as a surprise, and i believe it was a surprise for many. all right, let's go live now to troll stratford, who joins us from chief and ukraine. charles, good to speak with you. ukraine, as we all know, not involved in these conversations that took place in the all. what's been the general reaction that you're hearing there? we spoke to a member as an excuse policy, a member of parliament, the chief of this country's foreign affairs committee. a gentleman called alexander murray mara's co earlier today, and we all spoke his reaction about what he saw which was going to be achieved in re all the and he really didn't. mentees was in any ways,
6:13 pm
he said absolutely nothing. he said, the reason for that is because the ukraine and rushes goals are completely in irreconcilable. he said that they would die immeasurably oppose in their positions, basically echoing what zalinski has been saying that any kind of deal, any kind of agreement behind ukraine's backs will not be recognized. went on to say, or accuse president preteen as using negotiating platforms. in his words, as a west point of war, he said that the west and ukraine's back as would be foolish to listen and to trust boots in, in these negotiation process, he went on to say that it was purely rhetoric by trump, that he didn't really trust that this moved by the new man in the white house, but he understood the motivations for it. you said the jump was playing to his
6:14 pm
electorate, after all these promises that he made in his campaign. but again, he said that he saw no real hope in any last thing solution, nor indeed any initials piece plan being put together for the praise trump at least, but foot by making an effort and in no way but little america's role in trying to come to some sorts of some sorts of solution. he said that the, the prospect of any kind of concession by ukraine with respect to its territorial integrity, was completely out of the question. and then he said that the way forward was for ukraine to get nature membership. and for the europeans to basically offer the defensive security guarantees and security support for ukraine. so a pretty negative response from somebody very close to zalinski is a 2nd member of these are in policy
6:15 pm
a very high up and government here. tomorrow we are expecting the arrival of the us special envoy to ukraine keys kellogg. but in more, as that goes woods, he said that he sold his mission by the us special and boy at this stage is being nothing more than a fact finding trip. so. ready nothing really positive to report in terms of reaction out of keys today. all right, that sounds easier as charles stratford live for us in key. thanks so much dropped . the russian foreign minister said after the talks that washington has understood moscow's position better. so when you hook the shooting, you feel this is a necessity through still teaching the whole world and even if it is most feasible at the same time, it's an opportunity for the supervisors to engage in positive negotiations and discussion. we seek to, to learn from one another to support one of us and also to learn the lesson and to forbid any further conflicts to spiral. this is the song adopted by his royal
6:16 pm
highness, the crown prince. a. all right, let's cross now that you yourself of all of our it was live for us from moscow. you yeah. what did you learn so far about the outcome of all these meetings that happens day in saudi arabia. chat will have to say that the meeting has been quite significant and it's been in the fast amazing all this kind in the, in the yes, between the russian american delegations levels code these tools quite positive saying that indeed the american side has begun to invent to listen to most case positions, even though he reiterated once again that's the most for would not make any territorial concessions to ukraine. both countries have agreed to appoint new messages and replenish. uh, the uh, the embassies stuff in most could and a washington in the policy is the numbers of embassy workers has been reduced regarding the ukrainian sacrament. it's been decided that teams of russian and us
6:17 pm
indigo spaces on ukraine will begin that contacts. it's know we have known who will be among the negotiates, who is among the teams. the negotiators will be appointed to flight the presidents and also the consultations between russia and the us. will. these consultations will be held on a regular basis. administer levels also reach rate to the most good position that said the appearance of nato troops and ukraine is unacceptable. no european or american peacekeepers own ukrainian sore even now. so the peace agreement assigned as russian doesn't want to see that one day these foreign troops can potentially united with the crating on man go and invade. crimea, for instance, also according to level of nato expansion is a direct threat to russia's interest. so you cranes, accession to nature is still a big no,
6:18 pm
it still remains out of the question of both countries and need more time to pass the missing between legitimate pieces and donald trump. and it's unlikely to take place next week. initial aid was expected at the end of february. now the date is unknown. and finally, the russian foreign minister and the us 6 trip states have agreed on the corporation and they cannot make an investments fees as well as that grieves that expenses to re, to remove obstacles, to mutually beneficial economic, coal phrase. and so we can say the 2 sides a beginning and you chop to in that relationship. you yourself all of a live for us from moscow. thanks so much. julia marie m as in sam a is a member of parliament, a ukraine, and head of the ukranian delegation to the council of europe's parliamentary assembly. she joins us now live from warsaw. maria, thanks so much for being with us on al jazeera, let me ask you 1st, a ukrainian president, voiding their zalinski slammed at this meeting and to the off. today he called them
6:19 pm
talks about ukraine without ukraine. now you are a secretary of state of mark a rubio said in the european leaders and ukraine will also be consulted on reaching an enter. the more what do you make of those comments? and when do you think ukraine will be consulted? a load? surely. presidents that landscape has his clear and a strong statement on the as, as it's been called, i don't, i don't even know what to call a consultation or by laterals which occurred today uh for 4 and a half hours excluding for now the center of this topic. which is ukraine, as it was russia who invited us, who are temporarily occupied 20 percent of the territories and was when minister law for over saying that they are. i'm citing afraid of few crane joining for in
6:20 pm
armies and then invasion crime. yeah, it's sounds better ridiculous because it's russia who invade his crime in 2014 and i think, you know, the replacements of this arguments shouldn't be their presence events could clearly stated in munich, security conference, widely attended, also joined by american partners that nato is natal membership is somehow paused or page in the side, there should be a decent alternative, even though you creating a constitution confirmed by a criminal people still consist of this amendment. all your atlantic integration, which we adhere to. so nato has to do probably build in ukraine today. capabilities the military sufficient and it's important stuff to keep, to keep you credit. and maria us very in the loop of maria let, let me just jump in. i want to ask you about, from your perspective, how much pressure all of this is putting on president zalinski. this is, this is a,
6:21 pm
this is a critical timeframe right now. and, and what's the reaction likely to be in ukraine as well? i think the whole nation stands behind to ukrainian lead up to what precedents the landscape, the leader of our diplomacy and in the future, probably the negotiations, even worse. it's not just very clear how this negotiation table will look like. centralized argument commit to come, which, which ukraine is committed to as well as president zaleski. nothing about ukraine without ukraine and we adhere to just be so just as has to be served. it's not only about to calling me or some other preferences or the fact that they, the decision discussions were today about bank freshman bank cars working across the globe. i'm sorry, but we have thousands still above the boards that do crating and chosen to russia illegally, detainees, prisoners, or so forth. civilians have a contingency. all these have to be having reparations and not coming off of the
6:22 pm
states, but is coming from russia of frozen, brushing us, as i think central topic here is defense, injustice and ukraine. it's most of the consultation, the one they made wrong with the credit ukraine has to be consulted anyway. so nice thing of the cancellation of the business of president. so lensky. so the are of the, was made as a result of this conversation today. but by saying good, good impression were taken in the united arab emirates, turnkey, one presence, the rest of the leadership discussed human tire and economic and other aspects of disposable piece. it has to be though, very let me look, let me just jump in again, because you mentioned, of course, the fact that prisoners lensky has delayed his trip to saudi arabia. and also you talked about the 5 presence lensky was in turkey today. so i want to ask you, what are the avenues available for going forward for zalinski when it comes to all of this? what are the next steps as far as what you see as well. uh, you know,
6:23 pm
no one can predict how part this will behave and what are the ridiculous statements rush i will make because that nothing looks satisfactory for them as for the across. so as for the invade there. so i think presents the landscape leadership and the consultations, but he made at the top level with recently us punk this and you partners are lead to nice to um, very tough times where uh, as i said before, ukrainian nation will back him up with the statement that is con, to be, as somehow of peace, it shouldn't be durable, less than beast as it was. space is by also stay and secretary of the us. so for a, for the cheap and bad b, e u a us and ukraine has to be on boards. it's looked ross. i hope that the dictates their rules because they are the invaders. it has to be absolute politically. so. all right, that's maria mentioned save as a member of parliament,
6:24 pm
