it's within a very short time. the decision will continue to take place without significant change over sit back by these 20 sites in order to help simply us to cope with the situation and not to be the problems of the conflict of the political demands of both conflicting parties. okay, thanks very much. to have us on the policy indians, how strongly condemned to us present donald trump threats to take over the ship and force of expelled palestinians from the land as well as some people and goals that have been saying head of they are of summit this out, the door will be a home not feeling the my message to the arab nations is that they already know dependents to need. people have always been very few changes suffering and displaced over the past 2 years. and for a very long time, we appealed to them to consider all of that to remain that, that the palestinian people are afflicted and that they need to stay in united to alleviate the suffering people come in and do a lot. i appeal to the error of nations to reject comp evacuation plan and to rebuild the gaza strip as soon as possible. i never was in the heart of gauze from

there of above. i said if it will not leave, we are holding our ground. we bused to the arab nations, egypt caught our jawed defends, united with this, and rejected proposal to expel us from the gods. this trip. our message to them is said 8 and relief for uh well the estate department says special envoy, steve wouldn't call full returns to them, at least in the coming days. and that's to try to prevent the collapse of the goal is to cease finds, you know, what color is looking at 2 options, extending the 1st phase, which is rel, insists on, on how most refuses or progress to the 2nd phase of the agreement. now that's requires the withdrawal of his ready forces from gaza and also the return of oil kansas and exchange for a permanent c saw rise. well, william laurence is a professor of international politics at the american university and also a former us diplomats. and he's joining us live from washington,

the sea. thank you very much, williams, for your time. and now what else is the view from the us on this? are of summit, do you think that's being held in kyra um, well, the usaa views are split here in washington. on the one hand, there are those that support the trump proposals, which is pretty much and whatever israel wants policy along with where the model one of the shutter was saying. and then there's those that you know, wanted to state solution and want a dignified um, a new homeland for part of the palestinian population in gaza along the lines of the egyptian proposal. and then, and then of course there's, there's a 3rd group that somewhere in the middle and isn't quite sure, you know, and they'll sort of follow where things go. i do agree with what to model one big shot, a sat about the air of unity. but i see this conference and i think some people in washington do, as well as a chance to build unity. so for example,

what is the nature of the guys the administration committee? and is that a temporary thing? that then the hands of authority back over to the housing authority when that and yeah, who said he's opposed to the the fact that coming back into control. but the plan itself is quite good. we've gotten a lot of glimpses at the $53000000000.12 page report at the objections of put forward, which is a really good plan about removing the ordinance and recycling the materials, etc, etc. what's and, and what it does is it says back to the trumpet administration, look you, you want the policy and use to leave and to build a beautiful new place here on the beach. well, we can do that with the palestinians there, and here's how we're going to do it. so it's a, it's a nice, right post. it's a nice answer. i think to the, uh, what trump now is calls his suggestion, not his plan, but his suggestions that the palestinians to barely evacuated and that some of them

never come back, which anyone who knows anything about middle east politics knows that that's a neck. but number 2, for those that can't return. so as you said, you know, just the, but i'm not quite a skeptical of what's going on. as you said, there is a justin. this is something that trump initially was pushing full of any sorts of seem to box truck and say that while it stops as well to do what it wants that it was to protect, protect themselves. um, but of course all of this as steve with costs is returning to the middle east, israel says that it's behind this proposed extension of the ceasefire, which is phase one to avoid going in to face to as well. once again, the israel is violating both international law and the agreement itself, and i don't care which attack you take a serial cannot refuse food to, to guys

a full stop. and it certainly can do it to change the terms of the agreement at already signed. and try to force that sort of permanent phase one of the ceasefire . they're supposed to be transitioning to phase 2. and if, for example, the issues the philadelphia core door, which i don't think it is that i think that's more pre textual. but if that's the issue, an agreement can come up with about who police is that board or that can be perfectly acceptable to this re lease. but i don't think that's the problem. the problem is internal israeli politics and the of the hold that the far right has on moving forward on towards phase to the of the ceasefire, which it's dead set again. in fact, it's rarely settlers are still outside. the guys are ready to move back in because like they'd like to reverse of, you know, what happened in gaza, you know, back in the ninety's. i'm wondering what sort of discussions do you think would cost will be having with the prominence of benjamin netanyahu when they do me

what's, what's going to be the directions you think the take in was the us ever in intended to for the is results. go on to phase 2 in the 1st place when they push for the cx . 5, a i think with tough think so i've watched interviews with him over the recent uh days and weeks or he's quite committed to face to face too, as it appears on paper and. and i don't know whether it's naive tay or, or a mac, a valley and uh, positions on his part. um, but i really think he thinks he can make face to happen. uh and i think that uh, the one thing we learned from uh, the 2nd ceasefire. the cease fire is that, um, it was the biding plan and the trump administration forcing that and you know, into it. so if we're going to have any success going forward with cost again, trump again is going to have to force and it then yahoo into some sort of phase

$2.00. even if it's a slightly modified phase 2. and we know whether we cough is going to do that on this trip. i don't know, i don't think so, but it will come to a point that to maintain peace, which is the trump administration goal, to maintain peace. we have to go into some sort of face to with cough will be the one that has to deliver the the news send that to. yeah. okay. thank you very much, william lawrence, that professor vince national politics at the american university. the for president donald trump and pies double digits, harris on inputs from 3 of america's largest trading partners. now he blames canada as well as mexico for failing to con, down on the flow of on documented migraines. he says, and drugs kind of to responded immediately by imposing 25 percent tars of its own on use us goods west, more than a $100000000000.00 and trade. if the next month,

the prime minister's office announcing that those measures will remain in place until the us box them now in mexico, president called you a sean bomb announced the announced rather than move by the white house saying, we're trying to raise the rates taxes on us goods will be imposed a m, of the cds always been there. we have decided to respond with tariff and non tariff measures that i will announce next week. it is by no means our intention to start an economic or trade war, which unfortunately undergrad debris is the opposite of what we should be doing. we should be integrating our economies more to strength in our region. and trump has doubled the tests on china. it's a 20 percent saving basing for failing to crump down on synthetic opioids, including fentanyl in response to an or announced additional tires of up to 15 percent on inputs of key us agricultural products with 21000000000 dollars. the country has also expanded restrictions on 25 american companies doing business. the

. i say this probably has more us president donald trump has often pointed to financial markets as a measure of how his presidency is going. after long threatened terrorists went into effect, global markets solve bullet's file. trading indices showing sharp and wide spread declines, and canada and mexico and china reacted with retaliatory terrace of the roll. the 1st salvo is in a trade war. that is sending shock waves through the global economy. let's meet here. if trump is imposing terrace, we're ready. we're ready with a $155000000000.00 worth of terrace. and we're ready with the 1st trash of tears, which is 30000000000, which is already know. these are social history has shown that china and the united states benefit from cooperation, but suffer from confrontation, do what you do. so however, we will never accept pressure or threats and will firmly safeguard our national

sovereignty, security and development interest. this will create hundreds of billions of trump says this is about national security emigrants and drugs coming into easily across us borders and correcting trade and balances with other countries. critics say it is a shakedown and accused the us presidents of misusing emergency powers to please his political base analyst worn that retaliation will target that base. they're going to look for the places that are the biggest pitch points for the president's party . as the republican party, and so they're looking at, you know, actually how they can hit in states that are more republican dominated. and that is sadly that this is how trade wars work. truck returned to office demanding loyalty, seeking retribution, releasing jail supporters and telling allies they have to pay up for us protection . it is an approach that has left both friends and foes on set and wondering what comes next. same bus or avi ultra 0. slusher hubbard,

sentences in kind of those consul also a prime minister just intruder is expected to speak at any moment. now i'm kind of to was quick to respond with. it's the entire sports that likely to look like. well that's the phase the appraisers and that we're in phase one, which is $20000000000.00 us of tires on a $1256.00 goods, food and beverage is consumer goods, ags dairy, which are actually big issues of the us, started on the patients concerned in various industrial industrial products and that in 3 weeks time they say i further $86000000.00 of retaliatory tariffs will be advised. we don't know what those will be. what will those be levies against without talking about passenger vehicles. electric vehicles, aerospace, i haven't been even steal big ticket items. but there's this funded mental contradiction here because the goals, but it's trivial weather. the impact of these tyrese's gotta be felt by canadians.

it's gonna raise insulation here just when the as about about factory closings, unemployment recession. so it's actually going to make things worse for canadians even as they try and say, look, you know, you can't bully us around. so that's a ton of apple contradiction. but then when cajun officials are asked about this as a motor, we got to show that we have to do is we have to do something. so they don't feeling terribly powerful. that has to be said, despite what provincial premier suggestive they might take some actions that the premier of ontario has already taken us above the california line off the shelves of a for eventually rubbing alcohol shops as talk of as one of our tricity that's that's, that's supplied to northern us, states from canada, maybe make that much more expensive. but in the end, you got the sense of the biggest, how it came to canadian officials have is that wall street continues to crash you as soon as lation spikes. assumption extends for donald trump. may have 2nd

thoughts. okay, thanks very much. i should have that are the moments we're seeing some pictures life pictures there of a page. and that's been said, thought we should be hearing from justin to treat a that's a kind of as a prime minister very soon. but let's go to patsy cline, who's in washington dc for us to us to have was saying this is going to create inflation and effect canadian consume is how all americans react seem to all of this and have we have heard anything since the announcement by donald trump from him himself. well, i can tell you the wall street journal, which tends to be a very conservative paper. they're editorial today said that these chairs are the dumbest in history. and that, that might be an understatement. we saw as she i was talking about the stock market used to be very important to us president donald trump. dow jones industrial solve 1.5 percent yesterday. it is doubt almost by that much as of right now in the trade

ins only been happening for a couple of hours. so, so we are, so are hearing from farmers, they were already hurting because of all the cuts to usa, i g does tens of billions of dollars of money that was paid to us farmers. they know that this is what's going to happen because china did this last time and in 2018, 2019. the us government had to spend about $28000000000.00 balance out the farmers . now donald trump doesn't seem to realize that he has put out statements, telling the farmers that they are going to really enjoy selling all of their products in the united states when the reciprocal tear of take place in april. writing have fun. that's not how this works. the us farmers produce way more eager culture than this yours country. and then the us population can consume, they rely on exports. so the president also says that it's a mist that consumers pay for the chair of sheets seems to and he has consistently

said that consumers don't pay for these countries. pay for it. it's money into the us treasury again. now how this works, the tariff is given to the place down the people who are importing into this country. they almost always increase the price of their products. now this wasn't a huge issue for donald trump in his last term, but then again, inflation wasn't a huge issue. and just to give you a sense, economy was the number one issue for voters in this presidential election. 75 percent of people said that inflation and has had a moderate to severe impact on their daily lives. installation is still high, not as high as it was under drilled by and it was about 9 percent. it's and it's worse, but it's still at 3 percent, which is more than the federal reserve likes to see. and so when prices start to go up, and especially when there's businesses in the red states are impacted, that's when you could see a backlash. because again,

unlike the 2016 donald trump is in the white house, largely because he promised that the price of eggs are going to go down. obviously, birds low having a huge impact on it. but you just in one year to give you an example of how much this is impacting consumers. price of eggs have gone up 53 percent in this country again, bird. flo, the reason for it. but if there are tears placed on eggs, that's just gonna make it increased that much more. and that is what american consumers notice 1st. so perhaps not noticing it today, but it's not going to take very long until they do until that times fuel lots and times when it comes to the shopping list. as you said, the thanks very much for us to call home though the latest well basing has responded to the trumpet, ministrations additional 10 percent terrace on chinese and fruits with its own counts of measures. they include an added 10 to 15 percent tourist on us as

a cultural products and also adding american companies to its export control. as not all comes as china begins, it's most important for the school gathering of the year. that's known as the 2 sessions summit. katrina, you reports from beijing in china, wasted no time announcing its own response to new tariffs from the united states. it will impose extra levies of 15 percent on american chicken, wheat corn and cotton. well, so it means so organ, polk, beef, fruits, vegetables and seafood will receive an added 10 percent. it's also added $25.00 american companies to with export and investment control lists, restricting their ability to do business in the country and says it will suit us at the world trade organization. jubal cheese jew so we will never accept pressure and the threats and will resume, hopefully safe called our national sovereignty security and the development interest. the announcement came out as of to the trump administration, imposed an extra 10 percent power on chinese goods. doubling the duties since

february analyst describe beatings, response as restraint, they're not seemingly trying to escalate, getting into a war of words, not, you know, saying donald trump to, you know this, that or calling him names or anything like that. so they're just waiting and watching. i think they came to the realization you cannot control. donald trump, you can just simply prepare of how to best prepare china and it's economy for the future is just one of the topics being discussed at the 2 sessions summit. the 1st session, the chinese people's political consultative conference opened on tuesday, gather in 2000 grass roots representatives invasions grateful of the people. the delegates attending this conference come from all walks supplies. thanks food on the news and detain is teachers and village needed. that job is provide feedback to the governments about how well policies are working on the ground and to propose changes to existing laws. suggestions start slot include providing better

infrastructure. so china is growing number of elderly strengthening mechanisms for reviewing a i did rated content online and boosting the income of chinese farm is as performed as on the other side of the world. difficult days may lie ahead, unless the us is willing to return to the negotiating table. the aging says it's to protect measures, including those on agricultural goods will come into effect on march 10. katrina you out to 0 aging. the ukranian president boynton is lensky says he wants to make things right with you as present. donald trump also, the white house decides to suspend its military a to ukraine. the us is the biggest single during a few cranes military efforts button donald trump, for support. officer confrontational meeting with the man, so that ski on friday, trump also criticized him. so suggesting this and then to the will is far away as

the slough lane or the whole image. of course, we count on us support because a significant amount of support, including intelligence exchange and the important elements of a defense, the protection of our skies, cities, civil infrastructure, ukrainian civilians. this is the us contribution. these all important elements that have saved thousands may be tens of thousands of ukrainian lights, both civilians and military, these corresponding chiles stripes that isn't key visible. well, you could argue that it was a voice of resilience that we heard from the ukrainian prime minister dennis schmidt, who earlier on. he basically listing the reaction and you can already really be described as, as a real couple. it's taken. you cried by surprise. this announcement from donald trump smile said that said ukrainians with. busy continue their diplomatic efforts with the us via available channels. we know that diplomatic relations between the 2

countries are old, so i am low following that route in the white house last week. smell went on to say that ukraine get a game saying that the game that it was ready to sign the minerals deal. i mean, it was do that to. so let's he went over to sign in washington ross, we didn't sign it because he said it was sufficient security guarantees ukrainians, again saying they're not ready to sign it. he also said that ukraine was looking for funding in order to increase its domestic production of its own weapons, the prime minister saying that currently it produces around 30 percent of its own weapons, but he's trying to get that out to around 50 percent. he said that uh, in terms of bunch of money available, he said the cranes, january and february budget revenues are in line with a plan to help fund the the all me. so you could be forgiven for interpreting these kind of statements as trying to cool things down

a lot of face saving going on. but people very much aware of just how bad this crisis is going of the crime then. meanwhile, well, comes a new saying that it could help bring about peace and people in most go well so helpful to those 10 person who this is the key to resolving the conflict so that ukraine property want to have anything to fight with. but the landscape will not step back. he just has no way to go to him or his life or whatever, please shut the phone and put them in suspending. a probably won't help at this point because the previous administration already gave you crane a huge number of weapons. and while the doesn't make enough weapons, it does make drones that are very harmful on the front line. if the russian army solves that problem, then the war could in quite quickly. the european union has announced the launch of its free on europe plan, which will allow member states to relatively base defense spending. the u

commission president want the europe is living through a dangerous moment. spot said the brook is off to the challenge. europe is ready to assume its responsibilities. re, um, europe. coach, mobilize close to 800000000000 euros of defense expenditures for a safe and resilient to europe. we will, of course, continue working closely with our partners in naples. this is a moment for you, and we are ready to step off the magic edits of james spaces in london, and he says he'll be extreme. it will be extremely difficult, rather for europe to fill the gap left by the us and ukraine, or the e. u. is not one country, one country can old or something, it happens. the e u is 27 countries working together. and they have to come to consensus, an agreement, and they have to work out exactly how to fund it. you have to look just at the

sanctions package packages we've had 16 of them over the last 3 years. they announced the sanctions that it takes a long time of haggling and deciding exactly on the details before they get to unified action. and i think that is what is likely to happen here. and there's not complete unity among the european countries. and i think we're going to see that in a summit that's taking place in brussels. there's a problem in that. i don't think that they have the capability, the, you and the u. k. and no way which of the other 2 european allies that all members of the a you to fill in all the gaps, the big ticket items like patriot missile defense, like the attack comes missiles of the doesn't have that they don't have necessarily, all the intelligence capabilities that the u. s. has and provides 2 u. k. at ukraine. and of course, the stalling cause, well, which is a commercial thing. but it's run by, you know, most and ukraine has built a formidable force of drones over the last 3 years. but without that stalling

internet capacity to control them, it'd be in real trouble. no suggestion that's going to be cut off right now. but of course we know how close a little mosque is a key part of the decision making. now in the white house, children quotesoft incidence conflicts have been suffering sexual violence. that's according to you and children's agency. it's you're quoted more than 200 cases since 2024 and says the title number is likely to be much higher than the will between the sudanese on me. and the permanent track of support forces is now nearing its the ga morgan has this report when slicing between this is denise army and the baron military rapids support forces started in april 2023. millions were displaced from their homes in search of safety. some left all their belongings behind, others carried with them the horrors of the conflict and the mental and emotional
