. i'm clear, richardson, thank you so much for joining us. united states has split with its european allies at the united nations by refusing to blame russia for its invasion of ukraine. the us and france were at odds at the un security council, where the west failed to back a resolution labeling russia as the aggressor in ukraine's war as a dramatic shift in transatlantic relations at the un security council. for years out of the u. s. has voted in favor of resolutions that take place affirming ukraine's territorial integrity and calling on russia to seize hostilities to under president donald trump. us is taking a difference dancers, since it's but the time for russia and ukraine to make difficult choices. and the fighting is now we call on all other un member states to join the united states and
7:02 am
pushing for a durable piece that will bring stability to europe and deter further aggression. general us is adopting a neutral stance that does not right condemn russia, causing a split with a to your pin allies. but both in the general assembly joined russia, north korea, iran and others in voting against a resolution drafted by ukraine on the 3rd anniversary of moscow's invasions. and let me read 281. let me assure you that ukraine wants peace more than anyone, but not any peace. we must be mindful of the fact that this is existential war. this is existential wolf, within tide. democratic wrote power, democratic principles, and values. and the russia has repeatedly tried to dismantle these rules, best order and it was
7:03 am
a cute architecture. it is impossible to stop with the aggressive by using these ment doesn't work. us instead pushed for its own competing resolution named the path to peace porch calls for swift and to the war. without naming rushes, the aggressor a, we cranes, european allies lead by france or proposed and amendment to the us tax. to underline that the conflict was the result of russia's invasion, military operate. that's who went did, is it the rush i chose to bring them back to europe and saw him then over the past 3 years. and i do have russia has been waging a brutal legal unjustifiable aggression against ukraine, with a blatant disregard for international humanitarian law and mindy deliberately colquitt appropriate. i shall cvt us, however, abstain from voting on the amended version of its resolution. and eventually, the un security council adopted washington's original resolution with 10 votes in
7:04 am
favor, and 5 extension was the statement. meanwhile, president donald trump has said he believes russian president vladimir putin is ready to accept european peacekeepers and ukraine. that's something that would be a major change from the russians. from the and french president and $91.00 more crime held talks at the white house on monday or for on said france aims to build a long lasting peace and that europe is ready to be a stronger partner to the us and to staff off defense spending trump expressed hope that the board was coming towards an end well or chrome cautions, but any potential agreement with russia should not mean surrender for ukraine. cars, if this gruesome and bloody war can scarcely be overestimated. hundreds of thousands of people, russians and ukrainians in particular have needlessly died. and i've spoken with both president putting and president zalinski. and again, a lot of
7:05 am
a lot of good things toward peace are happening. moving in, i think pretty quickly and i know next steps you'll have supposedly the us of the desire to be don't. the layers are piece is you quote the beach and didn't want this one to decide this piece must not be. and besides renter of the home screen and must not certain that these one sleep without guarantee condition. so then feeds a lag in the software to keep the trained technicians, oil sheets, and some other stakeholders. and of course, funding to benjamin alvarez gruber and washington dc has more on the possibility of peace and peacekeeping troops in ukraine. it's not clear what exactly how this would look like. my crohn said that europe was prepared to provide security guarantees to ukraine in the french president spoke about peace keepers in the event of a ceasefire. and from said that it, washington is backing this idea and that putting would accept it even though the
7:06 am
russian president and senior russian officials had previously indicated that they would not accept any west and forces in ukraine. but it remains to be seen one how these european missing would actually look like under which mandated would work. because only a few european beat us has opened up to the possibility of actually sending boots on the ground. so it's not quite clear what the us president meant by that saying that putting would also agree to that idea. well, we also asked the military analyst, doug clain, what it would mean if food didn't really work to accept peacekeeping troops on ukrainian soil. or if trump uh, was accurately relaying what he had heard from the company really did say that to you, he would have no problem with foreign troops with european troops in ukraine. uh, that would be a remarkable shift. uh, for years one of the rushes primary objections has been for in western and european
7:07 am
troops in ukraine. they have objected in particular to not so much the, the idea of political membership for ukraine in organizations like nato, but most specifically on the infrastructure of nato being in ukraine talking about military forces about, for example, nuclear weapons is one thing that the russians liked to say no, of course none of these things have ever been on the table. none of these things have ever seriously been talked about until now. when your opinions are saying, we could send troops and though they are being very clear, they're not talking about sending troops to fight in ukraine. but to enforce a piece to make sure that the war stops in space over. so over to you frame itself where your work in commission president or so the funder lion said the country couldn't joins the e u in the next 5 years. if it presses a head with performs. and she was speaking and key of on the 3rd anniversary of
7:08 am
rushes, full scale invasion around 2000 and leaders from the u. s. canada also traveled to spain has announced a 1000000000 euros in military aid for 2 mondays. show of support, however, was still overshadowed by that diplomatic shift from hoofprints biggest backer. you would a ceremony to honor the fallen at my don square in keys to public ukraine's president zalinski was joined by more than a dozen leaders from europe and canada to mark the 3 year anniversary of russia's full scale invasion, all the lives of the implants, the leaders then held a summit, reaffirming their support for ukraine. the, the show of unity comes at a critical time for ukraine and it's europe and allies. the u. s. is threatening to pull, it's the court for keith and has less the landscape out of peace talks with russia to read for european leaders guaranteeing ukraine security is high on the agenda.

7:12 am
the far right if the has cemented its position as a force to be reckoned with. it has almost doubled its vote in 4 years. its success shown by the stock divide on this map, is down to strong support across almost all of the east in germany, with its n di migrant rhetoric and talk of closing boulders. the poppy flipped many districts from the center left to the far right. like here in this city of concord order, where people are trying to make sense of the huge a f t gains. if i speed, i don't understand it. maybe it's because of my age or it's the youth, didn't they get some education at home? and so how is it, you know, showing the support? i don't think it's good because they have gained quite a lot. just what it is. i mean, it's a mystery to me. it's a problem. that's who is of us where and surprised no.
