together yesterday taking the president's european council to that bridge we featured in the reports and it's showing him showing off his efforts to try and bring tensions down this has been something that has been quite successful locally there those 1st positions positions being drawn back but this is very localized 202050 down the front line other direction the shooting continues but this is also about a show of unity there's been growing fear here in ukraine that off the 5 years of war the europeans are growing tide of supporting ukraine all growing tide of taking economic losses over there sanctions against russia recently you'll remember the council of europe readmitted russia to its parliamentary assembly despite the fact that russia had done nothing to change its behavior nothing to get rid of the reasons for those sanctions being initially brought in so there was real fear here that. the europeans were basically in a hurry to do
4:18 pm
a deal with russia and get rid of this problem i spoke to. in friday this is what he had to say. i really hope that going forward we'll see real deeds and not just words of support for ukraine but. what else can we do. if we want to end this war by diplomatic means which we really want to do we have no other options. i hope that the other side will not undermine the measures we've already agreed to. russia of course president announced today that he's willing to meet russian president vladimir putin what should we make of the. well not only that phil he. literally said to vladimir putin this video message we need to have a chat it was a casual is that another example of. breaking with
