in less than 30 overs. david miller finishing the job, to reach the semi's. england have lost every game in group. what we saw tonight was probably an example of why we are out of the tournament, and we weren't able to withstand the pressure when it was a applied. i guess... yesterday i felt we lack the confidence and i thought today was another example of that. we will find out pretty quickly why we used to be able to make sure that our team walks out there a lot more confident than we are at the moment. more confident than we are at the moment. and that's all the sport for now. thank you very much for that, gavin. thank you very much for that, gavin. more now on our top story: ukrainian president volodymyr zelensky will meet the prime minister keir starmer at downing street today, ahead of a crucial summit with european leaders on sunday. we know that president zelensky

has arrived in that uk and is due to meet the prime minister in the coming hours and we have just heard that he will also meet the king, king charles. tomorrow. sunday. we understand

if i didn't align myself with both of them, i you'd never have a deal. you want me to say really| terrible things about putin and then say, "hi, vladimir, - how are we doing on the deal?" it doesn't work that way. i'm not aligned with putin. i'm not aligned with anybody. i'm aligned with the - united states of america. and for the good of the world. i'm aligned with the world. and i want to get i this thing over with. you see the hatred he's got for putin. i it's very tough for me to make a deal with that kind of hate. i he's got tremendous hatred, and i understand that. - but i can tell you the other side isn't exactly in - love with him either. so it's not a question of alignment. - i'm aligned with the world. j i want to get the thing set. i'm aligned with europe. i want to see if we can get this thing done. i you want me to be tough? i can be tougher than any human being you've ever seen. - i'd be so tough. but you're never going to get a deal that way. so that's the way it goes. - all right, one more question. i want to respond to this. so look, for four years, the united states of america,

we had a president who stood up at press conferences and talked tough about vladimir putin. and then putin invaded ukraine and destroyed a significant chunk of the country. the path to peace and the path to prosperity is maybe engaging in diplomacy. we tried the pathway ofjoe biden, of thumping our chest and pretending that the president of the united states' words mattered more than the president of the united states' actions. what makes america a good country is america engaging in diplomacy. that's what president trump is doing. can i ask you? sure. ok, so he occupied our parts, big parts of ukraine, part of east and crimea. so he occupied it on 2014. so during a lot of years, i'm not speaking aboutjust biden, but those time was obama, then president obama, then president trump, then president biden, now the president trump. and god bless, now president

trump will stop him. but during 2014, nobody stopped him. he just occupied and took. he killed people. you know what. .. 2015. 2014. so he killed... i was not here. yeah, that's exactly right. but during 2014 till 2022, you know what the situation the same that people have been dying on the contact line. nobody stopped him. you know that we had conversations with him. a lot of conversations. bilateral conversations. and we signed with him. me, like, a new president in 2019, i signed with him the deal. i signed with him, macron and merkel. we signed ceasefire, ceasefire. all of them told me that he will never go. we signed him, gas contract. gas contract. yes, but after that,

he broke the ceasefire. he killed our people and he didn't exchange prisoners. we signed the exchange of prisoners, but he didn't do it. what kind of diplomacy, jd, you are speaking about? what do you mean? i'm talking about the kind of diplomacy that's going to end the destruction of your country. mr president, with respect, i think it's disrespectful for you to come into the oval office and try to litigate this in front of the american media. right now, you guys are going around and forcing conscripts to the front lines because you have manpower problems. you should be thanking the president for trying to bring an end to this. have you ever been to ukraine, that you say what problems we have? i've been to... i have actually watched and seen the stories. and i know what happens is you bring people, you bring them on a propaganda tour, mr president, do you disagree that you've had problems bringing people into your military? and do you think that

it's respectful to come

and trump gave javelins. " you've got to be more thankful because let me tell you, - you don't have the cards. with us, you have the cards, but without us, you - don't have any cards.

one more question, mr vice president. it's going to be a tough deal to make because i the attitudes have to change. what if russia breaks ceasefire? breaks peace talks? what do you do then? i understand that it's a heated conversation. what are you saying? she's asking what if russia breaks the ceasefire? what if anything? what if a bomb drops. on your head right now? 0k, what if they broke it? i don't know, they broke it with biden because biden, they didn't respect him. - they didn't respect 0bama. they respect me. let me tell you, putin went through a hell. of a lot with me. he went through a phoney witch hunt where they used him, - and russia, russia, russia, russia _ you ever hear of that deal? that was a phoney hunter biden, joe biden scam, hillary- clinton, shifty adam schiff, it was a democrat scam. i and he had to go through that. and he did go through it. - we didn't end up in a war. and he went through it. i he was accusedj of all that stuff. he had nothing to do with it.

it came out of hunter biden's bathroom. i biden's bedroom. it was disgusting. and then they said, "oh, the laptop from hell- was made by russia." the 51 agents. the whole thing was a scam, . and he had to put up with that. he was being accused of all that stuff. - all i can say is this — - he might have broken deals with 0bama and bush, and he might have - broken them with biden. he did, maybe. i maybe he didn't. i don't know what happened, but he didn't break them with me. i he wants to make a deal. i don't know if he can make a deal. - the problem is, i've empowered you to be a tough guy. - and i don't think - you'd be a tough guy without the united states. and your people are very brave, | but you're either going to make| a deal or we're out. and if we're out, i you'll fight it out. i don't think it's i going to be pretty, but you'll fight it out.

but you don't have the cards. but once we sign that| deal, you're in a much better position. but you're not acting at all thankful. - and that's not a nice thing. i'll be honest, that's not a nice thing. - all right. — i think we've seen enough. what do you think, huh? this is going to be great. television, i will say that. all right. we'll see what we can do| about putting it together. so, that was the exchange that was the world. was seen all around the world. let's bring you right up to date, let's take you to london. these are life date, let's take you to london. these are ise date, let's take you to london. these are isjust date, let's take you to london. these are is just outside have, this isjust outside downing street. a demonstration there in solidarity with ukraine in support outside downing street,

just outside downing street, the camera will move around i just outside downing street, the camera will mt the round i just outside downing street, the camera will mt the end d i just outside downing street, the camera will mt the end of there, you will see the end of downing street, but it is not quite in shot there. the downing street, but it is not quite ii are >t there. the downing street, but it is not quite ii are there �*e. the downing street, but it is not quite ii are there is the downing street, but it is not quite ii are there is because people are there is because president zelensky is expected. that is the entrance to downing streetjust that is the entrance to downing street just there as the that is the entrance to downing streetjust there as the camera very helpfully swings around to give us a sense of the those geography there. behind those black gates, that goes into geography there. behind those black gates, tha we as into geography there. behind those black gates, tha we are |to downing street. we are expecting president zelensky, ukraine's leader, to be pulling up ukraine's leader, to be pulling up there and in through ukraine's leader, to be pulling up there and i1 towards 10 black gates up towards 10 downing black gates up towards 10 downir hours of or so. when couple hours of or so. when that happens we will life to downing street. now, earlier i spoke... now, earlier i spoke... earlier i spoke to sir malcolm rifkind, the former uk foreign and defence secretary. i asked him what his reaction was to what he saw in the white house. well, like everybody else, i was appalled by it. it should never have been allowed to happen. and i don't know why the white house decided

to have a press conference before, when it was likely was totally unnecessary and very, very provocative. and given that is your sense that there was some strategy here going into this, some kind of bargaining position opening up? what was the thinking? you destroy in order to rebuild and to warn your opponent that he has to make more concessions. so that's a possibility. but i'm not saying i'm convinced that was what happened. an explosive personality and zelenskyy was under intense pressure. but i think there's one point i really want to make. i think it's a very important point. yes, zelenskyy has got a huge amount to lose if he doesn't rebuild his relationship with trump, but so does president trump. because president trump's whole basis of his current position that will end this war.

that's what he's pledged to do. that the agreement, if it's to lead to a ceasefire, has to have zelensky�*s consent as well. there is no cease fire and trump will have so although he'll never admit it, trump also needs, them and get back to what they should have been doing signing the agreement on the mineral wealth, but also having a grown up discussion. and let's use the phrase security guarantees in its widest sense. if they both want to, they can find a formula that both can live with. and on that wider threat, i suppose looking forward a little bit, but also reflecting on donald trump's words precisely this idea that withdrawing us military aid to ukraine is a possibility if no deal is done. how realistic do

you think that is?
