unless zelensky were ready president has been saying. by our governmental officials. they conclude that it can work. and the teams really worked hard, both ukrainians and americans. the main thing for me was that we are not in debt, and despite what is said in the media there is no therefore even in the framework agreement i really wanted at least a sentence to appear that guarantees ukraine's security.

that was thatwas”�*"*' f ” " *—' earlier. could ukraine's vast, untapped mineral deposits be president zelensky has suggested so in the past. graphite and lithium are essential to making batteries, while titanium and zirconium are used these minerals, along with other rare earths, can be found in vast quantities under ukraine, although much it's not known exactly what the terms are, but it's

have been removed. and i understand that's a big deal, very big deal. by explicitly linking us support to mineral rights, president trump has upended years of foreign policy precedent. about the shared values of the fight, but about the value to be found in their land. joe inwood, bbc news. our washington correspondent tom bateman has words, his "money back". he sees this as payback for three years of us military assistance to ukraine. and he wants that deal signed.

part of this has been mr trump's rhetoric over the past week or so. remember, he has accused ukraine of starting the war, from getting slightly more favourable noises but still that absolutely fundamental element ago that he wouldn't sign without that.

bp says it will cut its renewable energy the energy giant revealed the shift in strategy its profits and share price have been lower than its rivals. on oil and gas and ramping up renewables, a strategy for the future from which it said there was no turning back. today the company unveiled a radical change in direction. changed since then.

why? investors, who've had a smaller emphasis on renewables. pleased because at the moment it is not clear whether bp can can from oil and gas. the uk government has vetoed new oil and gas licences but 90% of bp�*s production is international and other we will drill, baby, drill! climate groups insisted that bp and other oil companies are being short—sighted. obviously it is worrying that

some of the biggest and best bp announced today it is looking to off—load its solar business into a joint venture. the company insists it is still aiming to be net zero by 2050 but the distance to that target seems further rather than nearer today.

we have already cut our emissions by more than half here in the uk since 1990. a long way down the line. so far, the switch away from fossil fuels to renewable it is saying no ordinary consumers, me and you, matthew, will have to do some of the heavy lifting electricity can power a low carbon economy. that's what they want to see. they say hopefully if electricity prices are driven reduce electricity prices, you and i will want to choose an electric vehicle rather than a petrol one because it will be cheaper.

you have all of that, let's bring in the bp story. where does that leave net zero targets? are we effectively now in rewind? i'm not sure the two are directly comparable. what we are seeing with bp is a short—term effort to maximise profit, responding to pressure from shareholders. when you look at the statistics you can see there is tremendous pressure on the bp board. bp made, from 2020 until 2025, a return of 36% including dividends for shareholders. shell, which has moved away from a renewable away from a renewable strategy, made more like 80%. and exxon, which has never had a renewables strategy, strategy, made something like i60%, huge returns. shareholders are saying you have to deliver on this and it's hard for a publicly owned company not to respond to that pressure.

kind of logic to the decisions they are making. let's look at the longer term and what happens longer term. prices and it will mean lots of the decisions as i said we will make are likely to be informed by the fact undermine the decisions that bp has made to switch to oil energy around the world. justin rowlatt. and charged with six criminal offences. calin georgescu was dramatically stopped the may presidential elections. round of presidential elections, romanian courts postponed the run—off. the charges against him include instigating acts against the constitutional order, communicating false

paintings, known as a frescos, that show the god of wine. the discovery comes from a dig that began two years ago roman city. sophie hay from the archaeological park of pompeii explained more about what had been discovered. and it is a stunning room. it has red painted columns and all the way around

portrayed are on plinths but in a sense despite that you also get a sense of the movement within the images. yeah, it's really kind of questioning what is reality. movement going on with most of the characters. there are dancers, satyrs playing flutes, and there is so much movement and you have to wonder if they are real people. of conversation over dinner as well? have you been able to establish how long the painting existed before the eruption of vesuvius? this is the second style type of painting in pompeii and it dates to the mid—ist century bc. so by the time of the eruption it was already over 100 years old.

so this is like having an antique room in your house so it is a really prestigious fresco—torhavein your house. have so few examples. room with this scene of the initiation rites so we have lots of comparison with this one other place. because we have these

frontesses, women, who as now and eat raw meat, and we don't have this in the villa of the mysteries. opened up new questions and provides more evidence for the very mysterious cult of bacchus. we only have about a0 seconds left but can you tell us briefly how you found this and do you think there are more treasures to be found? we are out of time. business is next and i will be back in 15 minutes with the headline stories. we're waiting of stories. we're still waiting of pictures from donald trumpfirst cabinet. hello there.

eastwards across the uk, so some grey skies. and some showers coming into some western parts of the uk. there's the shower clouds coming in behind this that's all moving its way eastwards. but because there's more cloud around and some wet weather so particularly where we keep the cloud, say 6, 7 degrees. at least that rain is going to be moving away but there are some showers continuing into the night, some but most of those will die out and we'll keep more cloud temperatures could get a little below freezing. now, as we head through the rest of the week and into the weekend, after the wet weather today it will be quite chilly at night, mind you, and there's

could linger into the afternoon for east anglia. otherwise, some sunny spells, just the risk of one or two and wales, but those will be dying out later on in the afternoon. will be a bit higher than today, around 9 or 10 degrees. well, high pressure is tending to build in across the uk. when you get light winds and clear skies, though, you've got the risk of some frost and there may well be some patches of fog around southern parts of scotland, into england and wales, particularly for the midlands. places we will have a dry and sunny day. a bit more breeze up towards the north—west bringing with it a bit more cloud and those temperatures around 9 or 10 degrees. and that's nearer normal really for this time of year. but we do have this weakening weather front to move down from the north—west. we will see the sunshine

returning to scotland keep some sunshine further south, still the risk of a few fog patches but probably a bit more cloud for england and wales as we head into the second half of the weekend.
