united states and to all of you around the world. welcome. we begin the day with a wartime president, daring to look into the future, into a future of peace, in crating and presidents hold of me as a lensky is here in berlin for a 2 day conference aimed at finding ways in funds to rebuild his country. russia's invasion is now in its 3rd year, and there are no signs of a ceasefire on the horizon, but ukraine's shattered energy grid can't wait. people need power. and the zalinski told the german law makers today, his people, their soldiers need more weapons to. here is part of the zalinski is speech before parliament earlier today. see here you in the, i have any a other than peace me know to you. do we have any of the continental dream besides a peaceful you wrote people we know. do we have any other duty than to protect our people? can all you read the rules based international?

all the no rush, it has different goals and dreams. rush, a standing alone against. all of us will not not prove it. so we all have to false risk to change, but the most of it is possible. it's the most valuable because there is no wall that cannot be brought down to the product, not our leadership and the will of ukrainians, should work for the sake of peace. but it you, for the sake of europe, for the sake of life that suggest and so that it will be more then you will, if you rep, will be a continent without all the while i'm doing now by cubic. she's a member of the credit in parliament, she's leader of the political party fellows in ki kira, it's good to have you back on the program. you know, we're,

we're talking about this conference is taking place here in berlin about reconstruction. and i mean that it's personal for you, right? because you're telling me that you've you're actually in the middle of a power outage and keep right now. hello brandon? thank you so much for having me. yes, indeed. the same as many of my fellow ukrainians throughout the country. right now we are experiencing energy outages. we have been experiencing them for a month right now since the russian brutal attacks and destroyed the majority of our last um, energy production. and as of right now, there is no quick fix for that, and we can only rely on our partners to provide additional be transfers and provide additional capacities of energy so that we can survive through the summer. but the most important that we can survive through the winter and you and i were able to show it to night. you were telling me because you've got a diesel generator given you electricity right now. right?

right. it's actually not something that every ukrainian can have. but because i'm leaving the home, i can have diesel generator. uh and uh, i have some support for my internet and then for some lights, but actually it's very tough. so everywhere, and we are only purchasing diesel generators, hospitals from kinder gardens, to make sure that that works for you to go to infrastructure. i still has an ability to get out of curiosity when needed. says, you know, in considering the realities that you and your fellow ukrainians are facing. i want to ask you about something that happened here today in berlin. a sizable number of lawmakers from the far right and the populace left. they boycotted the speech that was given by your president, president zalinski. today you're in front of the german parliament and they even

said that zalinski is a bigger asking for weapons and welfare. what do you think when you hear comments like that? well, you know, i'm an oppositional party leader, and that can tell you more than anyone that president is a legitimate one. and we have heard russian narrative uh trying to diminish him and uh, trying to break. or we need you that we have hudson's the beginning on the tools, given vision. we as a country. so one goal should arrive and when the war and for that we have one president and it is the landscape and he's representing the country right now. and really, i want to make it very clear that political emissions right now, the matter for us. we need to get us through this very simple thing to state life, to have the ability to defend our homes and don't have the ability to provide 12 people. and this is why it's very upsetting when we hear about which things from,

from a low majors, from, from germany, you know, that people driven from us or support us and we hold it low, major 3, present people who support that you're germany is a major weapon supplier to ukraine. now, do you have any reason to think that that could change us? you know, we, we have gone through this is the beginning of the full scale, and these are, there are still many remaining nose from manual fiber line. but right now we think we are at the point where we can get a long term trust and there's long term agreements on, on getting guys the necessary weapons and munition nbc, from germany. this is what's going to happen. we have a security agreement, and we hold that a certain political changes that they happen to be wouldn't influence

a ability to support you crane and our flight at least this is our high hopes. curious, even though we've spoken many times we, we've talked about your, your hopes of your country joining the european union. euro skeptic, political parties far right parties. they are gaining ground in france, italy, austria, and here in germany, the original core of the european union is now home to political forces that think that the you is part of the problem, not the solution. i know you've dedicated your political career to a green ukraine firmly in the west, hopefully in the you. what those through your mind when you see what is happening right here. as i think people are scared, they do not have a good solution to the questions like security and future. and they think it's very important tool operate with this tax when you're talking to people and when you're

building your political career. again, here in ukraine, we are living proof of the importance of the unit team of you that you can only fight for your future and see any progress usually if you're surrounded by the allies and if you're extreme together. and they want everyone who is concerned with the freight to hear this. we here are saying that if you can only survive if you're acting together. so let's stay together. figure out the issues that may arise, but to move forwards to get other. i don't see any other way. kiera roodick with that. i think um we can say thank you and as always, we appreciate you taking the time to talk with this and um, we wish you all the luck with your power. and um, i hope that you don't have to rely on the diesel generators or for much to longer. thank you. thank brent. recreate train

how much has given to egyptian inventory and mediators? it's response to a us back ceasefire proposal. now we do not know the details of that response except that the militant group has expressed its readiness to positively reach a deal that could end the war and gauze earlier. today us the secretary of saint anthony, blinking this head. israel's prime minister has reaffirmed his commitment to a new ceasefire. on monday, the un security council endorsed the us back proposal, but there's still no official line from israel on the plan. a blinking is on a tour of the middle east, his latest attempt at shuttle diplomacy to reach a ceasefire. and israel blake and talked to relatives of people taken hostage by him. also on october 7th, they gathered outside the hotel were blinking was holding talks with his really officials to voice their support for the us back cease fire plan. they think

blinking for us efforts to bring the hostages home. and they called on their own government to agree to the ceasefire. the secretary of state and the lincoln team. he's been here multiple times. we shook our hands. he spoke to us. he reassured us that they are doing everything possible. and our message to him was that we have to bring home every single hostage as we never had time to do that. the secondary blinking comes here, gives us some reassurance and gives us some hope. the american administration is the goal enough in this neighborhood we call upon that is rarely is read and come us to go get with this file immediately and meet the ceasefire is good for the hostages. fighting is bad for them. it's as simple as that. but for more on the us push for a c, so i am joined now by jonathan pen, a call if he's

a director of these go across the middle east security initiative at the atlantic council. jonathan, it's good to have you with this. um, you know, we have, we've been here many times before us secretary anthony blinking in the middle east pushing for a ceasefire. but leaving empty handed. this time. it seems that blinking has a lot of wind in his sales. would you agree as well? thanks so much for having me. look, i think it certainly he's in a better position than he has been in a number of months. the reality is you have to un security council resolution that past demonstrate the real global support for the us plan. you are the g 7 announcement. you have the error when denouncement, just the other week, also supporting the deal there at the end of the day, it's going to come down to frankly, whether or not to mosse is willing to make this deal. and it's not even from us, it's yeah, yes, in war and whether or not he's ready to make a deal on the terms and conditions the prison button has laid out or not. if he is

well, then the pressure obviously shifts to prime minister netanyahu. if you're not, then we probably starting back to square one. yeah. and either we're even seeing reports as we speak. i'm coming out of israel that tomas has possibly rejected the bi and proposal or the by timeline. we can't confirmed that that's a report. this just come across, the us says this is and is really a proposal and they are putting pressure on home off the sign off on it. how much pressure is benjamin netanyahu? and as she's not under a huge amount of questions, yes, i think it's mos signs off on it. and again, if you guys have similar signed off on it, then he's going to be under significant pressure because he has an israel international list of right wing bengal. beards motors where if it's very clear that they will collapse the government if he signs off on it. now there's ways to

keep the government up and running by now yahoo, bringing in. yeah, you're lucky that by bringing back benny gaps. but that probably is not going to be a long term solution. there have to be a big political negotiations about what that look like as well. on the other hand, if similar doesn't say anything, well then it's easy for that and yahoo to keep the coalition alive and to say, well, i hadn't made any promises. yes, i allowed the war cabinet with benny gibbs to sign off on the plan that is proposed, but ultimately, if the us pushing for it and come off, rejected it. so this is on from boss. so we're gonna have to wait and see of that. were you surprised when biden went public with this proposal? i mean, it almost seemed, it seemed like you pulled the carpet out from under the feet of this and you all have, if you will. i don't think i would say, i'm surprised i, i think we'll present by that was we were trying to re establish leadership on this

issue. there's been a big cause here in the united states and in europe about frustration. the us not taking a forceful enough effort to get to some sort of deal to make progress on this issue and to somehow reach a ceasefire. and so i think the present was trying to figure out a way to do that with our israel immediately rejecting a deal more than given started. i think he managed to do that successfully from the proposal stage, whether or not he can actually get it to be effective and, and get both sides to sign off on. it is obviously a different story and we'll see pretty soon. yeah, i mean i, you have to wonder how much patience bite has left with it and you know who we hear that the, that they are relationship is not the best. does it really matter the, at the end of the day? oh, look, obviously politics, a good relationship can always be more helpful than a for one. but the reality is

a pregnancy netanyahu as a political calculations including his own corruption campaign. so that's going to be one of the bigger drivers of whether it highs relationships is particularly good with president by you. that person that yahoo was going to be coming to the united states at the end of the month to give a joint address to congress. you almost certainly feels you can create some sort of persuasion and maybe split the politics here in the us. i think what's more important is the results here and can fight it. and then 2nd i blink and convince netanyahu of this is actually in his best interest as well. and jonathan, when could argue that mention, yahoo is just biding time running in place long enough until donald trump is elected president of the united states again. um, but your read on that so it's certainly an argument that you've heard of out there . i would caution and that sort of policy for 2 reasons. one,

i think anybody that tells you they know exactly what's gonna happen to me with the elections. you probably want to ignore, there's so many variables right now. i don't think a lot of americans are we are. but more importantly, the relationship between president trump and progress and then yahoo, especially at the end of the present from the term, was quite poor. the reality is a prism trump, the students who have to be writing material on a number of foreign policy issues. and the idea that you somehow going to be by default, better on this issue. i'm not so sure is a given. and so i'd, i'd be careful about that as a assumption that she should just wait for trump to come back. and if you're looking, if you look in your crystal ball and like let's say we, we do have peace in, in garza who is going to come out with, with more influence, more leverage in the middle east, particularly with is really the palestinians. is it still going to be in the united

states, or do you see another power comes? i think maybe sony re be having an unprecedented level of influence that we haven't seen before. i mean, is the power the equation going to change? it's it's, it's a great question, look is, the reality is some of this depends on how the ceasefire comes about and how the resolution comes about. that it comes about in a way in which the us can actually move forward with what's best it's long term goal to have saudi normalization with israel in exchange for us security guarantees to saudi arabia and our host of other issues on civilian nuclear cooperation on artificial intelligence cooperation. well then, yeah, i think saudi arabia is going to have a bit of outside influence here. but the truth of the matter also is you have so many different groups and truly different people with the agents that the palestinians are not monolithic. and what they want to see in the west bank and

gaza. mazda is not monolithic, as a group, is really, is, are certainly not monolithic. and you've, you have a new set of elections that could change the power dynamics. and all of those changes could also change who has ultimate influence. the u. s. is going to continue to have broad influence, are probably more than anybody else when it comes to israel. but i also think the amount that they have is frankly over exaggerated. and we've seen the fact that the us has been able to control 0 to do things, but not completely forced them to. yeah, i think a lot of people have been learning some lessons of the past and several months that we should work jonathan to panic off with the atlantic council job. and we appreciate your time and your insights tonight. thank you. thank you. just as of today you as president biden's, son hunter, is a convicted criminal. us court found hunter by guilty on the 3 federal felony gun

charges under biden was convicted for lying about his drug use when he purchased a gun in 2019. now he is the 1st child of a sitting us president to be found guilty of a criminal case. you could face up to 25 years in prison. the sentencing date has been set yet. speaking after the conviction, special counsel, david weiss, who brought the case explained why 100 biden had been convicted while there has been much testimony about the defendants abuse of drugs and alcohol. ultimately, this case was not just about addiction, a disease, but hans families across the united states, including 100 buttons, family. this case was about the legal choices defendant made while in the throes of addiction. his choice to lie on a government form. when he bought a gun in the choice to den, possess that gun, it was these choices and the combination of guns and drugs that made his conduct

dangerous. when he w, janelle, do alone is covering this story forrest, janelle, good to see you. i mean this story we heard right there from david weiss would be that it had all the sordid details. a tab boy would love um, but this would not be a new story if hunter bite and we're not the son of the us president. but he is the president's side. talk to me about the importance of what happened in court today or well, of course. so as you pointed out, this is historical. this is the 1st time that a sitting president child has been convicted of a crime. but as you rightly also say, we're talking about the president's son and not the president himself. so why is this important? it's important because of the very specific political and do this whole situation that this is all happening and so parallel to hunter biden's legal troubles. you

also have jo barton's chief political arrival, donald trump, having his own days and court for various offences. and he has accused joe biden of webinar using the justice system against him. now, after today, however, we've learned that this is the same, just the system that would convict though biden's own son hunter biden. as such, it's become much harder for donald trump and his supporters to say that joe biden is abusing the justice system using it to protect his friends and family. and while using it also to punish his enemies as such. it's important for joe biden to be able to highlight so the impartiality of the courts in this regard because it dulls at least one point of attack coming from the trunk camp, which in this election year is not irrelevant. you know, either there or what 5 months to go until election day. and we know that can be in a trinity in politics and we know that the public's memory can be rather short.

what role could all of this play on election day or? well, it's hard to say one could imagine, for example, that the stress of the situation could weigh down heavily on joe biden. psyche. this is a man who has a lot going on already and that could perhaps influence his campaigning. but we don't know his mind. so we can't really say that for sure. but what we can point to is pulling data out there is, for example, the survey that was conducted by emerson college earlier this month. that showed that 64 percent of older surveyed said that hunter biden's trial wouldn't influence their voting decisions come november. 24 percent said that it would make them less low likely to vote for joe biden. 12 percent said it would make them more likely to vote for joe biden. essentially, what that tells us is that for the majority of voters, what happens with joe with the hunter biden and his trial really isn't that big of a consideration. we also have to imagine that the majority of the population here

really isn't following the ins and outs of 100 biden's trial. but considering the context again, this is really the important thing to be focusing on and that's why it matters. yeah, about a minute left. let's just talk about where things go now for hunter bite and he is face has another trial, doesn't yes. so he's facing another trial in september 5 in california. this is a, this is about 9 the tax related federal charges. so prosecutors say that the hunter biden failed to pay at least $1400000.00 in income tax between 20162019. now there of course. so he wrote the, he almost reached a deal with prosecutors in a summer where he would plead guilty to, to tax related charges and the mid to the facts of the gun case. but to that deal

fell apart. and as such, in september, he will be facing another day in courts. and that is when the latest, the next chapter begins to further of items in terms of legal trouble. yeah. 6 guns, drugs and mount taxes. my gosh, it's the whole book there. janelle washington. janelle, thank you, good thing of the will, the day continues online, you'll find this on x, also known as twitter, youtube, w news, or you can follow me to bring golf tv and remember whatever happens between now and then tomorrow is another day we will see you then everybody, the
