commission ursula von der leyen declared the deal as opening a new chapter in relations between london and brussels. the us president biden issued a statement saying it was an essential step to ensure peace from the good friday agreement is preserved. our political editor chris mason has more. for months, negotiations have rumbled on in the undergrowth. finally, then, at a posh hotel near windsor, just outside london, and a spot with a keen sense of its place in british history, the stage is set. mind you, not before the president of the european commission posed for pictures in london. and the informal and spontaneous, to the formal and very carefully choreographed. ursula von der leyen met rishi sunak at lunchtime. a few hours later at windsor�*s guildhall, the announcement. i later at windsor's guildhall, the announcement.- later at windsor's guildhall, the announcement. i am pleased to reort

the announcement. i am pleased to report that _ the announcement. i am pleased to report that we _ the announcement. i am pleased to report that we have _ the announcement. i am pleased to report that we have now- the announcement. i am pleased to report that we have now made a decisive breakthrough. together, we have changed the original protocol and are today announcing the new windsor framework. today's agreement delivers smooth flowing trade within the whole united kingdom, protects northern ireland's place in our union, and safeguard sovereignty for the people of northern ireland. the european commission present was notably warm towards the prime minister, referring to him as dear rishi. we knew we had to work with clear mines and determination but we also knew, dear rishi, that we could do it, because we were both generally committed to find a practical solution for people and for all communities in northern ireland. in this deal, easing trade is central, as is ensuring products, whether seeds or medicines that are available in great britain,

are also available in northern ireland and that taxes and duties can be the same, too. and what the government calls the minimum level of eu law is needed in northern ireland to avoid a border with the republic. it will, though, still mean a role for the european court ofjustice. so, will it be enough? if the democratic unionist party don't go back into government in northern ireland after all of this, does it ultimately amount to a failure? quite often we focus on the politics of situations, westminster and all the rest of it, but this is about the people of northern ireland, about the communities, about the businesses there. and what's best for them. not exactly a direct answer. if that happens, there will be a first minister from sinn fein for the first time. we have always said it was possible to have a deal. we've always said that it was

possible to have a deal. we've always said that with pragmatism, solutions could be found. so the fact that both sides have arrived at that point today and this represents the end of the negotiation, i think is something that will be well received. for us who live under lion, tea castle with the king, a brewery some people feel uncomfortable about, a political visit. most will forget that though if, and it remains an f, today's deal delivers everything she and the premise to hope for. chris mason, bbc news, in windsor. i've spoken to a former irish to promote who was ilan�*s ambassador to the kingdom and united states and has given me his take on the announcement. it's a good dealfor his take on the announcement. it's a good deal for both sides and it would have seen, as the report suggested, the body language between ursula von der leyen and prime ministers sunak was very positive with a kind of sense of a new era adorning an eu and uk relations. the northern ireland protocol has been a vexed issue between the

two sides for the last two years. it was only agreed and ratified three years ago, but the last two years has been a vexed issue, and now the issue has been resolved. i believe that this was a more dramatic, more radical reshaping of the previous deal than i had anticipated, looking at the situation in the last few weeks. ~ . , situation in the last few weeks. ~ , ., ., ., weeks. was it 'ust out of our personal_ weeks. was itjust out of our personal relationship? - weeks. was itjust out of ouri personal relationship? there have been so many twists and turns for many years and it appears most people are happy with the latest, which makes us wonder why it's taken this long. wonder why it's taken this lonu. �* , . ~ wonder why it's taken this lon. _ �* , ., ~' , wonder why it's taken this lonu. h , ., long. it's taken this long because _ long. it's taken this long because they _ long. it's taken this long because they were - long. it's taken this long i because they were political hurdles mainly in the uk to be surmounted over the last few years. with a new prime minister coming in a few months ago, that led to a new phase in the negotiations and brussels the negotiations and brussels the view in the european commission was that they could negotiate properly with prime

ministers sunak and they could rely on him to stick with any deal that they managed to arrive with him. the eu expressed and demonstrated with flexibility and conceding most of what the united kingdom was looking for in the last few months. looking for in the last few monthe— looking for in the last few months. ., ., ., months. you are part of the negotiating _ months. you are part of the negotiating team _ months. you are part of the negotiating team for - months. you are part of the negotiating team for the - months. you are part of the i negotiating team for the good friday agreement, which president biden is keen to preserve, and he has released a statement about the latest deal. what does this mean for the uk standing on the international stage? the uk standing on the internationalstage? it the uk standing on the international stage? it is very aood international stage? it is very good because _ international stage? it is very good because it _ international stage? it is very good because it would - international stage? it is very good because it would be - international stage? it is very good because it would be a l good because it would be a nightmare for the uk and european union to descend into a trade war, which is what was potentially going to happen if this thing hadn't been sorted out. the united states is keen that it two closest allies should be working together rather than being at loggerheads. this is a high—stakes situation and i hope this deal, which seems to

be going down very well in the house of commons, i've seen a number of large supporters of brexit speaking very strongly in favour of the deal today, democratic unionist party in northern ireland are still undecided and still examining the details of the deal, but i think there are so much in this deal, so many concessions have been made to address the concerns that were expressed by unionist parties in northern ireland that ought to be the basis for the democratic union party's agreeing to go back into government and enable us into government and enable us in a few months to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the good friday agreement within intuitions up and running again and serving the people of northern ireland the way they are meant to do.— are meant to do. let's look at some other — are meant to do. let's look at some other stories _ are meant to do. let's look at some other stories in - are meant to do. let's look at some other stories in the - some other stories in the headlines. the italian feminist has written to eu leaders calling for immediate action to stop migrant boat departures after vessel sunk southern coast of italy yesterday. more than 60 migrants are known to have diet including several children. it is to hundred

warning — this report contains some flashing images. helicopter blades whirring an attack helicopter going into battle from a secret air base. we were given rare access to ukraine's war in the skies with the sikorsky brigade. 0ur camera was in the cockpit. they fly low to avoid detection by russian air defence systems. on a wing and a prayer. then, they strike. 0ur target's on the eastern front, we can't say exactly where. they bank left to avoid being hit themselves and return to base, coming in right over our heads. the pilot, roman, has been decorated for bravery.

he's sa, a ukrainian top gun in an ageing soviet helicopter — about as old as he is. roman has flown countless combat missions in this war. that means being ready to die and ready to kill. do you think about the fact that there are russian soldiers who will be on the receiving end? there are no people on the ground. 0nly our troops and enemies. so if they came to our country with war, we are just protecting other countries. we are not aggressor. we are victims who are trying to protect themselves. and if to win this war, we should kill russian soldiers, we are ready to kill them all. so they prepare for the next sortie. spent casings are removed, missiles loaded — a0 per helicopter.

0ne inscribed with a crude message to the russian leader. well, the helicopters are now being refuelled and rearmed. this happens every time they come back. as soon as they touch down, they're made ready for the next mission because the order can come at any time. and any mission might be the last. after taking the fight to the enemy, some pilots from the brigade did not make it home. 0rla guerin, bbc news, eastern ukraine. now to the uk, where bbc panorama investigation has uncovered evidence that women are being misled and manipulated about abortion by some crisis pregnancy advice centres. the centres — which

of kent and cornwall on sunday night across more northern areas — one of the best—seen displays in some time by bbc weather watchers. displays in some time by bbc weatherwatchers. lucky displays in some time by bbc weather watchers. lucky you, displays in some time by bbc weatherwatchers. lucky you, if you spotted it! thanks for watching. hello there. strong solar activity brought spectacular sightings of the aurora borealis during sunday night into the early hours of monday morning. the strongest aurora was across scotland, but unusually, the aurora borealis could be seen as far south as wiltshire and 0xfordshire, and one of the reasons being clear skies. in fact, temperatures really fell away quite sharply, as low as —8 in highland scotland, but even —6 in parts of 0xfordshire. now, it does look likely that we are going to see more cloud, and so maybe the aurora not quite as prominent as we go through the next few hours. high pressure withers, but a north—easterly flow is drifting in a lot

of cloud off the north sea, so that'll prevent temperatures from falling too far, perhaps staying above freezing. but where we've got the clearest of the skies, we could see —5 in rural sheltered areas of scotland — maybe a touch of the aurora as possible here. but first thing on tuesday morning, we'll continue to see cloud drifting in off the north sea and a scattering of showers to the east of the pennines. quite likely, some of those showers could be frequent as well, and with that brisk north—easterly wind, it will feel quite cool. the best of the sunshine once again in sheltered western areas. we will see the cloud breaking up a little from time to time with more persistent showers arriving in the far southeast, but you've got to factor in the strength and the direction of the wind. it will feel noticeably colder, particularly on exposed east coasts. now, those showers in the southeast will drift away during the early hours of wednesday morning, and once again, the high pressure is still with us. there'll be little in the way of change to the story as we go through the remainder of the week. you can see on wednesday quite a lot of cloud around.

still the risk of some showers drifting in off the north sea west is best in terms of shelter, but sunshine is really going to be at a premium, i suspect. 7—9 degrees our overall high. looking towards the end of the week, it's not going to be that much in the way of changes. you can see the high pressure does drift a little bit further north and west and the isobars open out of touch, which means potentially, the winds will fall just that little bit lighter. and so, that means we might see a little more in the way of sunshine coming through, but largely fine and dry for the rest of the working week.

this is bbc news. we will have the headlines and all the main news stories for you at the top of the hour straight after this programme. hello, everybody. a very warm welcome to talking business weekly with me, aaron heslehurst. let's go and take a look at what's on the show. counting the cost of war, as ukraine marks a year since the invasion, we're going to take a look at the toll it's taken on the economy. ukraine's vast farms were feeding the world, but the country is now reliant on billions of dollars of help just to get through every month. ukraine's finance minister tells me how he's kept the economy functioning despite the missiles and the deliberate targeting of infrastructure, including

the power grid.
