eager to hear the message from the wisdom carriers who travel from all over the world to this field and england. and it is an extraordinary opportunity for wisdom and knowledge to be said to be amplified and be spreads. the grains president calls for adults with donald trump is the us pushes for the deal to access the country significant, where our minerals in exchange for continued military age. the fellow i'm role madison. this is obviously your life and don't also have coming up conservative physics much to play this victory in germany's general election. on the far right is projected to make. historic gains as the 2nd largest party is the

place tanks and occupies westbank for the 1st time in over 20 years. the defense minister says size is a palestinian residence will not be allowed to return. as it was, prime minister says he's ready to resume his water on gas after suspending the release of 620 palestinian prisoners despite as his party, with homes, the king's president let them use it as he says he's willing to give up his position if it means peace in ukraine, saying he would exchange his departure for admission into nato. a stipend comes as relations between the us and russia, have changed on the president. donald trump, who has so far, obviously left keith out of discussions on the train walk. child stratford has this report from keith of to well when months of ukraine policy changes on the us

president donald trump. after watching europe scramble to adjust to a new reality for, for you guys as president, someone motion they to latest cool like here of. but trump goals that dictate to would have this to say, yes, you want to know if it's about peace and ukraine and he really wants me to leave my position. i'm ready to do this and exchange for peace. secondly, i can exchange it for nato membership. if there is such an opportunity, i'll do, it's immediately without a long conversation about it. i'm focused on ukraine security today and nothing 20 years. i don't plan to be in power for decades, so often not being invited to negotiations between us and russian officials and saudi arabia. an officer rejecting a draft deal that would have offered more us military aid in exchange for the rights to ukraine's mineral wealth deal, which do you training and leadership does act. secuity guarantees. zalinski insisted on something. trump, a so fall roundly rejected us troops on the ground as part of an adventure

peacekeeping mission mandel low. you could but my logic was the following. next, if you believe that the economic deal is a part of the security guarantees, and why can't they be boots on the ground? we, you have your business interest to me, it seems logical. i said that the united states, but we did not discuss it yet as we did not receive the responses with the washer. sure. flat out, oscar. well, this is the ukrainian leaders response julia who attribute. don't know. what do i want from donald trump? i think that if we support and believe what he's saying, because i want the same as he wants to in the war as soon as possible. we are partners and i want him to be on our side. i don't want just mediation because i think it's not enough coaching russian launch. ukraine describes as the largest wave of drug and attacks across the country. in 2 and a half years. he's saying he's willing to do a deal on his presidency for nato membership shows, perhaps just how much is changed in recent weeks need is don't normally negotiate

and public. but perhaps zalinski is thinking that with this you as president, he has to make a grand gesture to make his voice heard. tell stuff without your 0. give. had to go ahead and joining us now have more from washington dc such as were just saying that this move by president as that landscape, as far as his job is concerned, as a grand gesture, at the same time, trump administration determined to push the minerals build through but presidents the landscape seems a little bit more cautious. it definitely does seem a little bit more cautious and what just to put it in a broader context. it is been clear in the last 3132 days of the 2nd trump administration that he clearly favors russian president vladimir putin. we do know that steve would call for seniors to be his advisor on all things. foreign policy spend about 3 and half hours speaking with president putin, as he mentioned just in the last story. ukraine not even invited to the 1st set of

peace talks. so now they're really the president trouble. president trump is singularly focused on this mineral deal threatening of the speech that i covered yesterday at a conservative conference that they'd better get a deal done this week. and we've now heard on the sunday talk shows from steve. busy coffin, here's a couple of the things he said. he said, you saw the president zalinski waiver in his commitment towards that a week ago the president sent a message to him. he's not waiver it anymore. before that, he said, i expect to see a deal sign this week. that's what the president does best. she gets them to understand that the pathway to piece is concessions, concessions and consensus building. and i think you're going to see a very successful result here. we've been struggling with this kind of to a conflict for 3 and a half years. well, the current contract conflict is 3 years and obviously much longer when he's talking about the takeover of crimea. so what exactly is this deal?

apparently, according to the new york times, a cabinet official was met with president loading fuller of air zalinski basically handed over documents that the ukrainians hadn't seen, which said we're going to need $500000000000.00 from you. and obviously zalinski projected that it had actually no security guarantees for ukraine. and now there are media reports that the deal that the trump administration is proposing now is actually even tougher. it says that it wants them to pay $500000000000.00 by giving a portion of their revenue that they make from all of their natural resources. as in this time, it includes the infrastructure and the ports, and that they believe the $500000000000.00 is paying back the past a given in this agreement. and so in future, the us sense for every additional dollar of us a you to be expected to return to dollars. so obviously that would be an absolutely her wrist. a deal for ukraine. that said, i think it's important again,

to fact check we her us present. donald trump said that the us has given $350000000000.00 to crane. that's not at all the amount congress has appropriate it about a 170000000000. less than $70000000000.00 of that went to weapon supplies, most of that money, which he, us weapons suppliers. so they're, they're saying that they want to see a deal this week. actually this is a very transactional president. is he is the ones actually gonna come to the table with this deal? seems pretty unlikely. party. thank you so much for bringing that down 1st patio hand. they're talking to us in washington dc. spell what are you cranes critical? mental assigned. why does the u. s. want about where are a metals vital for using electric vehicles and cell phones? miss all systems. now the electronics ukraine has deposits of 22 of the 34 minerals identified by the european union as critical. and it also has one of your largest

confirmed lithium reserves, estimated at around $500000.00 metric tons essential for batteries, ceramic and glass. the countries resides of graphite. also a key component and electric vehicles represent about 20 percent of global resources. michael wasik, you is a global affairs on the list and senior fellow with the atlantic consuls. you raise your center and he's joining us from odessa. thank you very much indeed for being with us and helping us to break this down. because if i understand what pati was saying correctly, in the 1st instance, the us is asking for revenue from the sale of minerals and whereas that ukraine has not those items itself is. is that correct? or is it a balance of the 2? is good to be with you. well, the deal is still very much in the fog if we can put it that way. but what it does look like is the united states is going to ukraine, the country that wasn't dated by right shots and asking for

a payback. usually it's the aggressor country that moves of the war that pays for operations. so it's a very, very large side of the equation right now in terms of the, the mirrors themselves. but this is something that is relatively new in the narrative here in ukraine. i was walking just a few hours ago along the ports and there were 2 large ships loading with grain going to egypt and now some of the world. so ukraine is traditionally known as the bread basket of europe, not the router or the mineral bread bows. good of the world, so that's what it has kind of caught a lot of depends on guard, but what i can tell you is talking to many, many ukrainians is they're very, very wary of what's being demanded because everyone here thought is that ukraine is fighting not only for itself, but for the right, you know, for democracy to protect you up and more distance united, distant united states and now they bring out support. very, very extortion in terms of your correspondent and washington pointed out and you

just refer to it of course, as the bread basket of your one would have thought that if, if the us was attempting to get money from you training, it would go to something like the dream supplies that a quite clearly is known for and yet it sounds as though keith kellog, i believe us, especially in voice in ukraine, went space or was at least one of those who went specific specifically with a shopping list that was quite detailed. focusing on rear ras and the, and the minerals and oil as well. what do you think that tells us about the focus for the us and this a very good question. well 1st of all, um, i think the koreans kind of shot themselves on the 4th on this one because you may recall present as the last case, premier not direction peace through strength deal for the united states. and in that he did mention a lot about right or minerals, and if there's one thing we know about president trump is you don't whisper within your shot of him. let's make

a deal and that's exactly what happened. so he has never forgot those. and i think part of this, i mean i may be um, ascribing too much credit to the trumpet ministration, but part of it may be fitting into their plans to attend china in the race forever minerals. so they want to get ahead of the game because china did have quite a big slit in here before the war. uh so it remains to be seen how this all plays out. but one thing for sure is it's very, very sensitive for president landscape because he 10, seen he can be seen to be looking like solving of the country. and i need caused the credit is open for business, but it wouldn't cost. i'd like you to help me out with something because i don't really understand how these things these things work. but in terms of, i'm just wondering whether or not presidents or landscape is responding to to the transactional nature as you were talking about of the trump administration. because if it enters into some sort of agreement with the us,

does that give the us by default, almost an interest in ukraine and therefore does that in order to protect us interest, give the ukraine some sort of in advance and or sidelines us protection, even though there might be no, might not be us presence on the ground. right, well, your correspond to, i think, mentioned the figure, about half a trillion dollars. so the thing is though, is that these minerals are in the ground and they take a long, long time. we're talking here is to dig them up and sometimes somewhere for processing if the recipient, countries like the right size of processing capability. the other thing is a lot of them are in either restaurant controlled or russian the occupied lines. so it may be very, very difficult to get the mode. so the cash pay back if that's what the trump administration is looking for, may take a long time. but also the thinking here in ukraine is that, look, we did receive a lot of military aid from you, but

a lot of that job creation. a lot of that wealth has remained in the united states, creating jobs and places in swing, states like pennsylvania. and finally, who on earth goes to a country like ukraine and says, we need pay back on it since it seems like a storage until a lot of people. and if i could add one more thing, because i think it was earlier on mentioned about the press conference was the last week when he was asked about his relationship with mr. trump and whether it could be fixed. he gave a very interesting answer. he said, it's not in our rights select presidents to lose partnerships between our countries . to me that was basically going on president trump and saying you don't have the right to, you know, go to kind of a personal war with me because a lot more is at stake. so far we haven't heard of reaction for washington, but it could be coming. it's really interesting to get your thoughts on this michael boston q. thank you very much indeed for your time. my pleasure. as the

conservative opposition to the 1st match has declared victory and a historic general election in germany saying, there is no time to waste and forming a coalition. government initial projections suggest is conservative block is expected to win over 28 percent of the vote. but with 20 percent of the vote, the a f d is likely to come 2nd as the best performance of a german 4 right party since the 2nd world war. dominic came reports from berlin at the moment of troy and phil, the christian democrats for the past 3 and a half years. they being in opposition now they've come 1st. in this selection sleeper, they should match this campaign centered around a much tougher policy on migration. and the economy, he is clear about what he wants to happen. if it's the culture, the world is out, there is no waiting for us. there's no waiting for legacy coalition folks. and that goes to ations. we need to be able to act quickly again,

or that we can do the right thing at home so that we have presence in europe. again, that sort of the world realizes that germany, once again, i can rely because it was a try and also for the alternative for germany, or if day you to achieve the best performance by a far right party here since the 19 settings. so use it's empty, migrant agenda has meant the main stream potties shown that now it's liter says that should and step but we have doubled up votes. they wanted to cut them in half the opposite has happened. and i must say, one thing i'll hand will always remain out stretched for participation in government to implement the will of the people, the will of germany. we are ready to participate in government. all suspect signed no trans through the social democrats whose vote shit. plummeted off, shots would stay in office for a while. his days,

as johnson i on number that's is this is a bit to election results. so the social democratic party is a feat. i think that must be made clear in light to the results. i might have most vote to say they want gemini to taken fuel. refugees have permanent border controls and to ton asylum seekers away at those borders. many people won't tax cuts, but bessie's, unlike cri with the economy in long term recession, the foreign policy issues were not central. most of the parties have similar views about the war and ukraine, nato, and the positions of the trump whitehouse. all of this will be for the new government to decide 1st, the policies must work out which coalition is possible and the result means event may not be easy. meaning fleets of this maps may have to make concessions with these migration plans in order to replace off shots as chancellor. negotiations may

take weeks, dominant cane al jazeera bullet. a spot for more in this step, boston is joining us from balance. so it's a good night for madison to see the faucet. and now the coalition talks begin, and that's not going to be easy. no, that won't be easy at all. and let's say the max here at the headquarters of the christian democrats. so his party has already made it very clear that he is in the russian. it is an urgent need to sat for a stable and trustworthy german government again. and he has also and his 1st speech reached out to uh are you are p a nation. so it has had a message to the world saying the europe needs to be strong again and he is ready to lead. so this is all coming from on, on test. it's a new leader here in germany. he's never been in government, he's been in politics, falls have a long time and now he needs to reach out to out of part is to build this coalition, the cd. you depressing democrats con,

definitely lo. know this is going to be now the tricky party would prefer of course i have a small coalition only went too far to see folks that would be more stable. we've seen in the last the governments and the last 3 and a half. he is a $344.00 election which was fairly unstable, managed to make money compromises as so you really want to try to avoid this. but what we are waiting for now is to see what the small part is out doing because they need the 5 percent vote to get into the, the building, the stock, the german parliament. and that's with all the, depending on how easy it's going to be for much to a form, a stable and storm coalition. yeah. one party that is now going to be part of the cool elation of on is the far right. i of the day they got about 20 percent, however, of the vote which puts them in the 2nd. what kind of influence are they going to have on decision making on the correlation, whatever form it takes? well, that's a very good question because indeed to the,

the alternatives for germany has come out. the 2nd, they double the, their foes said there's been a historic victory as a leader alice wydell has called and she has actually reached out to see the maps to build this solution together. but he has made it very clear that the firewall in germany, which is against moving with a far right party, will still be in place and he will not work together with the the but yes, then you will have for i think around a 140 members in parliament now, so that's going to be a significant block of opposition in following day, already has managed to sort of have their policies of anti immigration influence. all the parties as well. it was a real push to the right. and that's is something we will see much more in the next government stuff. thank you very much. indeed. step boston talking, just bear from berlin spot. still ahead and i'll just say to adjusting to life and rather how to say in democratic republic of congo police officers and others joined the ranks of the m 23. the on

the had a lot of that. there's lots of quiet whether to be found down under at the moment with high pressure in charge across a lot of a strain. yeah. we've seen that he's continued to build a coal central air is 40 degrees celsius. and alice springs on monday, but things are cooled down in that southeast corner with temperatures, places like melvin touching down into the early twenties. we'll see something similar happening in southern parts of w, a with the arrival of a little weather feature, bringing some wet to weather in here, plus, touching down to $28.00 degrees celsius. the on choose day. the winds are set to pick up across that northeast corner for places like queens and things to that tropical fi came, which remains largely out to see, but it is gonna chunk some rain, very new,

and those shows and storms extend across the tropics. now we'll see some rain start to ease in to new zealand over the next few days after a pretty settled story on through the weekend. and on monday the temperature and christ church will pick up to 26 degrees celsius with some rain on tuesday. but the funny spells will be back by thursday, and it's looking allows me, sunny across a nose of china, will see those conditions gather across japan as a snow eases on choose day. the shake model was for translation and international understanding is inviting nominations for its 11 is additional starting january the fast and ending march the 31st 2025 for more information. please visit the awards official website

at w w. w dot h t a dot q a the i'm about to send you a watching. i'll just need a reminder of our top story is this. all right, let me is it as getting says he's willing to quit as president. if it means peace for ukraine is told reporters, he would exchange his departure for nato membership. he was speaking on the eve of a 3rd anniversary of russia's full scale invasion. the train for 7 of opposition lead to physics not sophisticated victory and shines with all of salts. as conceded defeat in germany's national election alternative for germany is on track for the

strongest shortage of a far right party on a national level. since the 2nd world war, the it was deploying tanks to the occupied westbank for the 1st time in more than 20 years. it's a major escalation and this military action in the north of the territory, it comes more than a month into us operation that's forcibly displaced more than $40000.00 palestinians from their homes as well as defense. minnesota says the palestinians will not be allowed to return. and troops for remaining, several refugee comes for the next year is really forces have continued is raised elsewhere in the occupied westbank. at least 8 palestinians were detained by his running troops on the streets of novelist, the managers being carrying a daily targeted raids, searching communities and making arrests. not all the reports from the jordanian

capital. and she's there because these very government on the palestinian authority have bundled your data from reporting inside israel and the occupied westbank tanks are rolling into jeanine. that's after israel announced it will introduce tax to the already ongoing is really military offensive against the northern occupied westbank. this comes in the context of statements made by these really minister of defense. who said that is, will, would not allow the more than $40000.00 palestinians. it is rarely forces, have approved it from blood, cut him engineer to return to their homes in the refugee camps in those cities. of course, israel has been setting records throughout the past year. and beyond that, the occupied westbank, changing the geography of the place, and now with these displacement, changing the composition of the cities and the refugee camps. while bonding the

work of the un agency under that is supposed to serve the palestinian refugees. the ability of those displays to cope with this approaching end of society to help them is quite limited. over the past 16 months, israel has shrunk the palestinian economy by 28 percent by introducing severe movement restrictions by carrying out constant military assaults against various palestinian cities. and now that is where it is promising to expand and deepen these military assaults. many are wondering where and how they can seek assistance with all the address data. i'm not of all the fidelity of the ceasefire, and god has been made clear by his very prime minister benjamin netanyahu, the wants of the armies on standby to restart war efforts in this trip. i don't know who we are prepared to resume in teams finding at any moment. operational plans are really about, gosh, lot views,

con late me side. i cool policies and gaza. we have eliminated most of our mazda is organized forces leave a no doubt. we will complete the goals objectives entirely, including this one is the sog. this can be achieved through negotiation. while the main number, this is how much is accusing israel of jeopardizing this is far after delaying the release of palestinian prisoners. and the chinese senior official by some name says by postponing the release of a palestinian prisoners. according to the phase one, the cease fire agreement, the enemy government is acting rampantly and exposing the entire agreement to grave danger. palestinians and the occupied west bank, many of whom expected to see their loved ones on saturday have been left discharged the level of the level since the early stages we've been afraid to the israel wouldn't stick to the steel. yes. today, what is real data wasn't acceptable to the mediators gibson's and the guitar is the

world's waiting for the 1st phase of this deal to be completed last molten, allowing the release of the prisoners yesterday was purely because of the hatred the have for us. this is because they all criminals don't know where they don't want the families of the palestinian prisoners to feel joy. they want to talk to them. they want to deprived them of joy heavy. let's go back to germany where the conservative opposition lead to physics mass has declared victory and sundays of general election save as no time to waste and forming a coalition and government democracy sends you. is a j, a political risk specialist on a global strategy. advise that he's joining us from london. walker, thanks very much. indeed for being with us again, frederick match making the point that his priority is unity within europe to count to the interference of the. busy us and russia, how do you think the german foreign policy is likely to change and then that's a sure merch needs to be more assertive. we're living in a new world or

a fast changing world order. let's mark the logically by fragmentation between countries and fragmentation. within countries, the result of the german election reflects that fragmentation within germany, across the political landscape. and he has to move fast times as of the essence. basically, germany is the 3rd largest economy in the world. it's the largest economy in europe . it's the largest democracy in the european union, or union of $27.00 nation states. now i would that you don't have from germany leadership you. that meant a week. germany means a less stable europe and a less stable international or hence the responsibility on the shoulders is enormous. during this 3 or 4 years in power, shots was not a firm leader. and as a result, we saw that less stable germany that less stable you're in a week, a place in germany on the world stage. now he's the trump, obviously he's expecting a greater defense element from the european union. so that's something very serious

that has to take into account because trump is moving forward on the ukraine. college sees fire a piece process. he's not waiting for your hands. the burden on, on march is even heavier. um, so once again, the emphasis on time is of the essence, the fast, the world is moving fast. it's not waiting for your mark. i just want to ask you very briefly about the influence of the i stay on this because then it's unlikely they're going to be part of a correlation, but they are going to be in 2nd place. we've got about a minute left. can you just give us an idea of what you think the impact is going to be of the off day? the, the ideas already had an enormous impact. you don't necessarily need to be in power to shape the national debate and the factors for the they've doubled the vote. this been 84 percent turn out in the german election. that's the largest is german unification in 1990. much of that has to do with the of the day the a of the is already washing the debate on migration. all the major parties are

calling for more restrictive migration and the internet since they were ready for filling their agenda by doing that for one thing that's important. they took 20 percent of the national vote. but if you look at a map of germany, the former east germany is where they have their strongest presence. and what was formerly western germany is predominantly the sent the right party. so we have to look at it. it's that i have a we strongly regional mark of thank you so much for breaking that down. first block of insincere. thank you very much. indeed. i am. 23 rebels are advancing a ne, in democratic republic of congo. but i wanted to invite the group of patients, they took the city of chicago and advancing towards the commercial have of little better modeling. what kind of reports from goldman? this police officers and because we used to work for the corporate is government put up to seem underwriting to him. can you to liberals noted training to work for them? no, no, no. so when we came to get an idea of the current.
