the two men spentjust under an hour together. before leaving the uk he had a sit—down interview the leaders agreed four steps to better help ukraine. and guarantee any peace in the country.

and today, i'm announcing a new deal which allows ukraine creating jobs in our brilliant defence sector. the peace when it comes. because we have to learn from the mistakes of the past. can breach with ease.

so we agreed some important steps today. first, we will keep the military aid flowing to strengthen ukraine now. second, we agreed that any lasting peace must ensure ukraine's sovereignty and security. third, in the event of a peace deal, we will keep boosting any future invasion. guarantee the peace.

now with real urgency. and planes in the air together with others. this effort must have strong us backing. finally, we agreed that leaders will meet again very soon towards this shared plan.

in other words, a gathering of witches. and so that those people who were taking part want to continue the war. the meeting in london. they are against you. they are against russia, they are against peace. we know what russia is against. and in an interview published today,

so it seems that russia's position hasn't changed on european peacekeepers. it's a big no. russian state television, in its big weekly news review show, not only criticised the idea it said, what troops can they afford to send? steve rosenberg there. with me is pike, been . we.“ ,. . a” 7 wall developments. following all developments. let's start with news le figaro is suggesting, by is suggesting, a suggestion by macron prime president macron and prime minister starmer of a truce in ukraine. one—month truce in ukraine. what details do we have? an what details do we have? in interesting development, what details do we have? fifi interesting development, not a fees—le: eee'w—eee eee e amount of detail 7 amount of detail is? amount of detail isso huge amount of detail is so far. we've only had this in le

he was fairly diplomatic i did not want to be ambiguous in that meeting said, take being bullied. obfuscation, i think everyone who watch that,

to suggest there is reasonable evidence, perhaps that guys, i agree, where do i sign? what will he be able to do to build those bridges? donald trump is feeling. the head of nato is in the position where has to keep a strong eye on all of the important leaders inside of nato and the most important one is donald trump so if there

president trump took office. and it is very, very important for them to get those military supplies. jeremy bowen he explained how recent events might signal the end of the post—war world security order in europe. it's definitely the end of the post—world war two it's one in which the us has made clear that so i think when you combine all of that with the debacle of the very argumentative press

at which they're moving. i think that's incredibly important. that the europeans are going to want to keep up economic pressure. that means keep on sanctions. and "planes in the air". i remember the big debate when

this conflict started about, you know, sort of an air free zone, say to the americans, this is what we'll provide, on the details. given all we've heard from president trump well, it's a tough call. look, a deal is not going to be done that ukraine turns down. ukrainians, i think, will fight on. one of the ironic outcomes of that terrible press conference that president

to make some financial gain for the united states for the long term. he'll be providing a backstop to european troops that are defending an american investment, but i think we have forward momentum right now. we're not now frozen, following what looked the city is still recovering from last month 5 devastating from the cast of anora are also getting ready to appear

here's emma va rdy. it's a scaled—back award season in la, with many events but as the stars arrived for the annual oscars photo, it was clear this show must go on. one of the most nominated films is wicked — its co—star the best till last. i like to surprise everyone. i'm very excited. yeah. it's definitely the right dress to wear at the end. yeah. for best picture. deal. the best part of this award show is that we're together. how will you celebrate if you all win? he laughs.

hello there. it's been a glorious start to the meteorological spring to come as we head through next week. where it will be wet and windy at times, and then it all turns be some more showers around too. a frosty start here to monday morning. north it is milder. to be replaced with lots of sunshine. sunny spells to the north. it's windy for north west scotland, wet and very windy

top temperatures between ten and 12 celsius. more of the same again on monday night into tuesday. some fog patches developing underneath clear north and west too. now, there is another weather front approaching it's going to tend to fizzle. further south, but you can see those temperatures as the high starts to push away. or 15 celsius perhaps in the far south east, where it should stay

dry and sunny pretty much through the week. the sunset times as well. bye for now.
