the the, the, the, we knew his line from berlin, israel's defense minister lays out his vision for a post. how mosque, awesome. do off go on, but it says palestinians would be in charge after a mouse is defeated and he says, there would be no is rarely settlers in the territory. also coming up more difficult diplomacy for the us secretary of state anthony of lincoln. it arrives in the middle east as spears mountains because a conflict leads to a wider war. and us presidential binding is due to kick off his re election campaign with a major address in pennsylvania. will bring you a speech line and record low ratings for german chancellor shots and opinion surveys says less than 20 percent of germans are happy with his government's
9:01 pm
performance. the earliest welcome to the show is where else defense minister has outlined his plans for gaza after israel finishes its war against a month which carried out the deadliest are attack. and israel's history. on october 7th, you off calon sense that he envisioned know is really, is that there's moving into gaza. he said once a mazda is defeated, he believes palestinians would be in charge there. let's look at the israel's plans and how they might be perceived. israel's defense minister, you have got a lot on tour with soldiers. he says the war has entered a new phase is real, is drawing down its troops and northern gaza and will concentrate on targeted operations there while continuing to pursue hamas leaders in the south. he also
9:02 pm
gave his version of a post more scenario guidelines said guys a residence or palestinian, therefore palestinian bodies will be in charge with the condition that there will be no hostile actions or threats against the state of israel. this wording has not been adopted by israel's cabinet, which is still divided over post war plans. ahead of a trip to the region, german foreign minister and elaina bab box called for mutual security between israelis and palestinians. is that kind of their model to be no occupation of the gaza strip, kind of have no expulsion, no reduction in the size of the territory. at the same time now, there must be no more danger to israel from the gaza strip. and gaza met ongoing airstrikes and funerals. optimism is hard to find the work of the, of the future of guys after the war is dark and gloomy, and very difficult problems. the coming period is going to be more difficult than the previous one. so look at all the hospitals that they have destroyed all the
9:03 pm
schools that they have ruined the dining room and there's nothing less we hope that we will be able to return on the 1st place no matter what the bigger picture holds for the people of gaza. the situation right now is dire with fears of a humanitarian catastrophe becoming reality day by day. our special corresponding to abraham is following events from jerusalem earlier i asked her about the main points of go on the plan for the day after and also. well, it's just important to 1st emphasize nicole. this is by no means official government policy. this is the vision of the defense minister and there are other opposing visions within the current government, which we can perhaps a get to later. this is also not the detail plan that the united states, israel's closest ally has been calling for. this is more like a broad vision with
9:04 pm
a very broad bullet points and things that we have heard already from the is really government. so that's how much will no longer be in control in the gaza strip. after that israel would maintain security control. but that when it comes to the governance of a, the lives of postings in the gaza strip, the that would be left to a palestinian bodies. there's no detail as to what he means by that he didn't specifically mentioned the palestinian authority which the united states had. because sort of mentioned in conversations about the proverbial day after that a revitalized and reformed palestinian authority could possibly at take a charge. he also mentioned that a multi national effort would have to be mobilized in order to reconstruct and rehabilitate the strip. and he did say that there would be no is really civilian presence in the gaza strip. and by that should be lead means settlers. um,
9:05 pm
you know, israel did previously up until 2005 have settlements in the gaza strip and much smaller scale than they do in the occupied westbank. but the settlers had to be evacuated and there have been calls for them to return from the right side of is really politics. but for the defense minister again, this is his vision, not government policy. that's not something that he'd like to see happen at. let's talk about that disagreement that you hinted at their goal on says there will be no is really civilian presence in gaza. there's disagreement about that in the cabinet . what are the members. a a who are vowing for a resettlement in gaza saying, so we're talking about 2 senior members of the cabinet, the finance minister, but so small church and the national security minister. it somewhere bend. we're both prominent figures of the settlement movement and definitely the far right
9:06 pm
members of the current government, very vocal and quite influential. and what they have been seeing over the past couple of days is that they would endorse or return settlers. and that they see that as part of that is real security plan. their argument basically is that to maintain security, there needs to also be a civilian presence in the gaza strip. they've also both hinted at quote unquote, voluntary immigration of palestinians in the gaza strip. this is a fear that palestinians have had since this war began since civilian started being squished into smaller and smaller spaces further south of the strip. it's something that countries in the era region like egypt and jordan have also said that the categorically reject the idea of resettling palestinians elsewhere. so these ministers say things like voluntary immigration,
9:07 pm
that's the language that they use. but what palestinians here and what arab leaders here is a force displacement and that is also not acceptable. but for right now, for palestinians. and we've also, you know, heard the united states and germany speak out again, statements like this that there should be no forced displacement of posting and no reduction of territory under any circumstances. since the w special corresponded abraham from jerusalem. thanks a are you a secretary of state antony blanket has a rise in turkey kicking off a week long visits to the middle east. lincoln's visit comes as the us tries to contain the israel home us war, fearing that it could spread into a wire conflict. the top us diplomat will hold talks and is stumble on saturday, then head to israel the occupied westbank and find the air of countries including egypt, guitar and so on. your review is, comes as attacks and 11 on end. iran have rattled nerves in the region
9:08 pm
and wireless, bringing our corresponding dorian jones, who was following all of this for us from is symbol store in this the secretary when could 4th visit to the region? what is the us hoping to achieve this time around? well, i think the secretary of state lincoln's visit to talk. he's seen as much about diplomatic messaging as subsystems. you have to realize that since the onset of these will, between israel and hamas blinking, had largely side line tacky instead, focusing on the gulf states. and in part that was due to tuckers president bridget type of the ones, very strong support of homeless describing it as a liberation movement. but the fact the blinking has now chosen to start his tour of the region. we have a visit to turkey is seen a sending a message possibly to israel, about what the washington is growing discomfiture over israel's handling of this war. the us remains opposed to a cease fire. something that is middle eastern partners, except for israel. of course is this should be
9:09 pm
a priority. how much of an obstacle do you think this will be in blankets talks over the coming days? a lot. i think this has to be a major problem facing. blinked and he's going to be facing growing calls from, from his pool. so it's uh, this ongoing goal by israel has to come to an end with warnings of the growing humanitarian crisis and the threats to the region and possibly even the things of contagion. but i think few people are expecting any robust within the united states, thoughts of strongly backing israel. but behind the scenes, i think that will be hopes that a blinking will press so only is riley government. the need for possibly more talk is an approach or less a scaling back of its operations as a way of, of a lease alleviating the growing fees of growing retail instability across the whole region. what turkeys role in this conflict? while i think that the turkey, the beginning had trying to position itself with some kind of potential mediate in
9:10 pm
this conflict. but given the fact that other one is on the quickly back thomas. and these ongoing, more of was with these riley, probably mississippi in german that know that role is totally seen is impossible, but to keep still calm play potentially important role in the, in possibly working in unifying the various palestinian movements. so you have very good contacts. it's a how much leadership is believed, but also with thoughts in the west bank as well as of possibly effort to bring those 2 groups together in some way of providing a solution off to the wall is seen as a possible role to talk. you comply and also turkey has a very good relationship with ron at the moment. in fact, the rainy and price of the was due to visit, took it early this week, but that was cancelled following the bombing in a wrong. but still, i think clinton will be looking for possibly turkey playing a role in least getting an insight into how yvonne is viewing the region. because the big fear is that the wrong could be sucked into this war. and the talk has made it very clear. it does share washington's thoughts that he doesn't want any further
9:11 pm
expansion of this conflict. not dorian, besides the war in gaza, what else is on the agenda for blinking there in turkey? of what i think people will also be pressing kentucky to ratify sweden's membership to join nato. now this has been a major point of tension with hold of tech. he's less than allies, but talk to you soon. assisting you will not ratify nato's membership of sweden until the us congress policies the the procurement of, of the american society gets to, to keep. now that's being held on hold up in congress for all for many years until on chris insisting that there will be no rectification as we until congress to live us now resulting. the impostor is seen as a key part of clinton's visit. complaint will be carrying the message, yes, by the time to leave a congress. but the longer this impulse goes on the multiple cause it will be deliver congress. but it remains to be seen by the inquiry is ready to listen to bring cons concerns. ellis de leon story and jones from is simple. thank you so
9:12 pm
much. and a quick look at what's ahead. you're seeing light fixtures from pennsylvania, where you as president joe biden is set to kick off his re election campaign. and mark the anniversary of the capital arrive 3 years ago will take you there once he takes the stage. so do stay with us. for us to german opinion polls indicate that support for chancellor or left shots and his government is that a record lo, less than 20 percent of participants in the survey commissioned by public broadcasters say they're satisfied with the german government performance with a vast majority saying they are not satisfied. 83 percent of people say they are in fact concerned about the current situation in germany. only 13 percent feel optimistic. nobody is political corresponding to emily or the reports now on the
9:13 pm
factors that led to this point. and how 2024 promised as new don. lemme as for the german government to warn you. crane was no engine, sites tensions in asia that could blow up the german economy and rising rights. when populism fuel by and such and t 2023 has been charging yes to germany, and it could get even worse in the year ahead. ukraine is struggling. the counter offensive didn't live up to expectations, and the hopes of pushing and brush out completely your fading. germany has been a major provider of weapons and financial aid for the rest and unity on ukraine is on the strain. and the trouble victory, and your selections could be fatal. so ukraine could even risk the breakup of nato . germany's defense minister is already sounding the alarm. the key is war is back
9:14 pm
in europe, we need leadership and defense capabilities. germany needs to be come back, ready again, and it's not just a europe, that's a source of worry. conflict has once again abrupt it in the middle east, which could require germany's military to get involved to and even more issues leaving further east. the us and china are loggerheads in asia as a taiwan and the south china sea that could be a new cetera off the tie when these elections in january and to germany. the stakes, massive. the china is the country's biggest trading policy. now, this is where the gentleman come on a factor of sellers shoes, proportion of the cause. and it's not just that germany also have any relies on china for some vital role materials. but the government has signaled a change in coals. it published a china strategy which outlined the risks and the relationship to the level of salt
9:15 pm
explained. his approach like this, jeremy's goal is not to the couple from china to avoid critical dependencies in the future. based comes at the time when political pressure, it's how you miss grubbing gemini, like many western countries is grappling with arises populism. 2020 full could become of water. said yeah, according to the latest polls the fall arrives. alternative germany is now the 2nd most popular party in the country, and it could come top and reason on elections and 3, eastern german states. at the same time, the chancellor struggling to convey unity and this and coalition government. constant bickering has left voters with little faith in it so decades postwar, germany wasn't something of an economic and security and comfort zone. it's enjoy pace, political stability,
9:16 pm
and the growing economy. the owner of this is now one question. 2024 could be its biggest test that i am of the guardian reporting there for us. and let's take you back to pennsylvania. now were you as presidential by, is a balance to be killed saying to the stage in just a few moments we're expecting to tell americans why they should vote for him again later this year. for now, the stage is empty and while we wait for the us president speech, let's cross over to our washington bureau chief in his fall and it's good to see you. what do you expect to hear from joe biden? in his 1st speech of 2024, it's only causes speeds will not only commemorate the 3 year anniversary of the january 6th to s capital a tex tomorrow, but it also marks the beginning of this important election year. so this is
9:17 pm
basically his kick off speeds for 2024. 1 might expect him to highlight the achievements of his 1st term in the white house. but the reason pulse indicates here in the united states that all his accomplishments do not really strongly resonate with his spring orders or even with in his own democratic party. so we expect president biden really, to focus on the threats which are posted in his opinion by former president donald trump. and that's also why he has not only chosen the state uh 3 years off to the general, the 6 storm off the capital. but also the location that's a actually um, interesting um, uh because uh it is uh, in pennsylvania as you just said. and it's near a george washington's revolutionary war error winter headquarters. so it's also kind of a symbol of democracy, what's as bite,
9:18 pm
and we'll talk about later or soon it's a will be under threat is donald trump will be re elected exactly there in valley forge where george washington and the continental army spent a very harsh winter some 250 years ago. now, the president also just released his 1st campaign for 2024 heavily focused as well on what happened on january 6, 3 years ago. how much of a sense do you think there is beyond capitol hill? that a re election of donald trump would be a threat to american democracy as well. that's really the $1000000.00 question here. all over the united states, the cold, and the latest poll suggests, were released today showed that one 3rd of all americans think that the f b i was behind the general 6 to take one 3rd and little surprisingly, this number, it's even higher within the trump support his body nearly 50 percent of fish voters
9:19 pm
or potential of orders, i believe that the storm was initiated by the f b i. so it really remains to be seen by the president's a bite and speech. and his strategy will really have a significant impact and impact in this very polarized country, which we always have to keep in mind, or where voters really only receive information for from a very divided. it's also media landscape. they're just kind of getting the information which re, firms their own political opinions. yeah, this is not the 1st election in the us. you are a covering for us in your opinion. do you think he can win solely by making this a referendum on his opponents, someone that he doesn't see fit for office? so this is a very tricky parts for him, but we have to be honest to you. what other 10 steps to really has, you know,
9:20 pm
here's the legal standing is edit, it's the weakest point of this whole presidency. he, he bite and likes 4 percentage points behind on the trunk. this is 47 to 43 points of agreement or support. so trying to kind of focus of all the accomplishments he definitely was able to, to do throughout his 1st term obviously doesn't resonate. so this is yeah, well this is like his last try him for this is what he tries to win the voters opinion. the risk, so i think one could really say he's not come panting of is a positive idea. he's really mainly focusing on fear. we shall see if this works out in 10 months or so. let's talk about some other issues because the bottom administration has faced severe criticism from the outside and even within his party and his own campaign over his approach to the israel. hum us war. to what
9:21 pm
extent do you think this could impact the presidential campaign? to me that's, that's a very uh, good question. it's interesting that just have been some internal memo as which relics internal memos means from workers within the w to us. so from his administration and expressing really disapproval of biden's policy, many employers are really urging president biden to demand an immediate cease fire and put much more pressure and israel to allow him to tear in aid into gaza. and this criticism is not only coming from inside the white house, but also from the outside, obviously, so many view uh, many people here in the united states view, the administration support for the is rarely military operation is the only one
9:22 pm
cited and mainly young democratic borders. are increasingly breaking with prizes and biting over this conflict. and that is very dangerous for the president because he highly relied on the relate on the young voters for his last with a novel body, our era of americans, also the people or a body which were in support, a fight in the last election. and they're also very critical with his interest administration's approach, but he misses story cli, american elections, haven't often turn on for an affair. so how likely are issues such as gaza and ukraine to sway voters this time around, especially, you know, voters who are historically democratic and would then vote for someone who is probably going to be donald trump. yeah, um that's a good question and that's definitely
9:23 pm
a tool. normally domestic issues really don't play up. they hardly play any role here, this in the united states, but it is, i'm very sorry to interrupt you there, but we were just seeing the president and the 1st lady take the stage there in pennsylvania as we want to take our viewers right there. he'll be back with you after the president has done delivering his speech. thank you so much for the time being the the 1919. thank you very, very much today. uh,
9:24 pm
the topic of my speech today is fairly serious and uh, i think it needs to be made the asset. this campaign. in the winter of 1777, was harsh and cold as a cotton alarming march to valley forge. general george washington. no, he faced the most daunting of tass, the fight and went to war against the most power. whole empire existed in the world of the time. especially it was clear, liberty not conquests, freedom, not domination. national independence, not individual born american made of ha, never again. would we bowed down to a king? months ahead would be incredibly difficult. for general washington know something in his bones. something about the spirit of a truth. she was lady, something,
9:25 pm
something about the soul of the nation. he was struggling to be born in his general order, he predicted an ice quote with one heart and one mind the fortitude and would patients they would overcome every difficulty the troops. he was lazy and they did . they did this already, but like blankets and food, clothes and shoes. this army was march level, bloody bare footprints of the snow. this rag tag army made up of ordinary people. their mission, george washington declared, was nothing less than a sacred cause. that was a phrase used sacred cause, freedom, liberty, democracy of american democracy. i guess, visits the grounds of valley forge of in their number of times and the time i was a boy scout years ago. you know,
9:26 pm
it's very site that i think every americans with vision tells the story of the pain and the suffering and the true patriotism it took to make america today we gather in a new year some 246 years later just one day before january 6, a day forever shared our memory because it was on that day that were nearly lost. america lost it all. today we're here to answer the most important questions is democracy still? america is sacred cause the rhetorical like of damage or hypothetical, or the democracy still, america sacred cause is the most urgent question of our time. that's what the 2024
9:27 pm
election is all about. choices, claire style shots campaign is about him. not america, not you. sound trump campaign is obsessed with the past, not the future. he's willing to sacrifice our democracy, put himself in power. our campaign is different. from me, tom lar campaign is about america, it's about you. it's about every age and background that occupied this country. it's about the future. we're going to continue to build together. our campaign is about preserving as trans. they are american democracy. 3 years ago, tomorrow, we saw their own eyes. the violent mobs store in the united states capital is almost in disbelief as you 1st turn on. the trouble for the 1st time in our history and directions had come to stop the peaceful train for the transfer of power in
9:28 pm
america for 5 smashing window shattering doors, attacking the police outside gallows, where a record as a major crowd. janice, hang mike pence inside a 100 and for speaking forcing. the house was chance, he says march through and smashed windows. where's nancy? over a $140.00 police officer and you to him. i attended the funeral police officers who died as a result of the events that day because dog because of donald trump's lies a guy because he's wise, brought a mom to washington. he promised it would be while and it was. he told the crowd to fight like hell and all hell was only he promised he would write down write them everything they did, he would be side by side with them. that as usual,
9:29 pm
he left the dirty work. others retreated to the white house or as america was attacked from within, donald trump watch on tv in a private, small dining room off my over all of the oval office, entire nation watson, our whole world watched in disbelief. and trump did nothing. members of a staff, members of his family, republican leaders who were under attack for the at that very moment, fled with him at call off tomorrow. but imagine had they gone out and said stop still, trump did nothing. was among the worst dereliction of duty by a president in american history and attempt to overturn a friend for our election by force and violence. a record 81000000 people voted
9:30 pm
from i can see the and this president trump lost the popular vote by 7000000. prompts claims about the 2020 election never could stand up in court. trump loss 60 court cases. 60 trump loss to republican control states trump loss before trump a point a judge and the judge is trump was before the united states supreme court. on the last recount of to recount, i have to recount and state after state. put a desperation a week. this trumpet has mag of followers went after election officials who went to ensure your powers assistant will be here. this public service has their lives forever offended.
