these latest comments about the new president president zelensky. president is really true to form, he is very difficult to form, he is very difficult to 5&2 terms of to form, he is very difficult to 5562 terms of the to predict in terms of the tone he is going to adopt that he is going to adopt president zelensky, towards president zelensky, we have had several especially we have had several days of him now essentially the ukrainian days of him now essentially 'saying ainian days of him now essentially ' saying that 1 president, saying that he didn't need to be at the negotiating table. essentially" ' " ' him as part of any dismissing him as part of any future peace process. whether fbtbre peace process. whether be directly between the it be directly between the united states and russia or whether europe was involved. yyhgther europe was involved. now he seems to be but now he seems to be softening that a softening that tone a little. ~ ~ . that president bit, suggesting that president zelensky and president as zelensky andspresident potin as just said need to get you just said need to get together stop the killing, together to stop the killing, together to stop the killing, to stop the killing of millions young and including young soldiers. and of that does go very along with 77 j along with 7narrative firmly along with the narrative that we have heard from president trump for a long time that his primary motive is to stop the war in ukraine and to

stop the wareinjjkraine and to the killing. mr stop the warioukraine audio - the killing. stop the wareioukraine - - - ~ the killina. ~ , ., z—e the us; the usis pretty close saying the us is pretty close to striking a mineral steel. do we �* about what do we know about that deal? ~ ., �* ~ ., deal? well, we don't know details and _ deal? well, we don't know details and i are - deal? well, we don't know details and i are hearing | deal? well, we don't know- details and i are hearing now sides that 7 from both sides that ongoing. and negotiations are ongoing. and the significant change the last few hours. we have an acknowledgement from had an acknowledgement front from president had an acknowledgement from from president zelensky�*s kyiv, from president zele'ns'ky�*s that these are team that these discussions are taking over the team that these discussions are taking mineral e team that these discussions are taking mineral reserves sbbsta htial'mineral' reserves has so bsta htial' mineral reserves has and that sbbsta htial'mineral' reserves has and that the states and president united states and president especially has trump especially has an in. and it has been interest in. and it has been calculated at least by the white house that those minerals be worth upwards 1$500 could be worth upwards of $500 billion to the united states. initially, president zelensky rejected any form of deal because he said it didn't come any security guarantees with any security guarantees for ukraine. clearly, something have changed 77 have changed and 77 have changed and perhaps must have changed and perhaps thatis must have changed and perhaps that is part of the

president of the united states, and going ahead and and going aheao'and measa'g against he and'going aheao'and measa'g against he thinks that against what he thinks ukraine and zelensky want. so i think that is one of the reasons find a reasons we find such a disconnect and approach right now. but i say that with a degree of that degree of confidence, in that within a very period of within a very short period of we are going to find him time, we are going to find him coming toa time, we are going to find him coming to a conclusion as to who he needs support in who he needs to support in terms of trying to make a peace come about. it is a come aboot. it is a very process for him right difficult process for him right now. he has got good now. but he has got some good working on it. 50 people working on it. so what ou people working on it. so what you think _ people working on it. so what you think is — people working on it. so what you think is the _ people working on it. so what you think is the most - vso think is the meflrealistie ~ ~~ ... in the end? goo tbiols is the mest'fealietle a........ w in the end? ~ outcome in the end? well, the most realistic _ outcome in the end? well, the most realistic outcome - outcome in the end? well, the most realistic outcome is i we all that he is one we all hope for, that he is to be able to force the

income guarantees for couples who have children. and we will put pressure on in the parliament and on the streets, because that's where politics happens. now, the mainstream parties refuse to go into a coalition but it is important to look at what their success could mean, especially if they're pulling disaffected voters away from the centre. sumi somaskanda reporting and we will have full coverage of wewill have full coverage of... german elections the the german elections over the weekend. a man who stabbed the novelist sir salman rushdie — of attempted murder. hadi matar attacked the writer as he was taking to the stage for a talk in new york in 2022. nomia iqbal reports. oh, my god! keeping writers safe. of his blood, as audience
