dealing with breathing issues, pneumonia and the kidney condition, the little m. terry martin, thanks for joining us. united states has split with a to europe and allies at the united nations by refusing to blame russia for its invasion of ukraine. us and france were at odds at the un security council, where the us failed to back a resolution labeling russia as the aggressor in ukraine's war. despite those present, trump has again stated the conflict could and within weeks and that presence lensky might be back in washington this week, or next. as a dramatic shift in transatlantic relations at the un security council. for years out of the us has voted in favor of resolutions that take place affirming ukraine's territorial integrity over there and calling on russia to seize hostilities to
12:02 pm
under president donald trump. us is taking a different stand, sir, 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 in 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 at right condemn russia, causing a split with a to european allies. but both in the general assembly joined russia, north korea, iran and others in voting against the resolution drafted by ukraine on the 3rd anniversary of moscow was invasion. and let me read 281. let me assure you that ukraine once peace more than anyone but not any peace, we must be mindful of the fact that this is existential war. this is existential
12:03 pm
wolf, within tide. democratic wrote power, democratic principles, and values. and the russia has repeatedly tried to dismantle these rules this order . and it was a cute architecture, as it is impossible to solve the big dresser by appeasing appeasement doesn't work. the west instead pushed for its own competing resolution named the path to peace port calls for swift and to the war without naming russia as the aggressor, a cranes european allies led by france or proposed amendment to the us tax. to underline that the conflict was the result of russia's invasion, military operate, those who went through this, it's a rush, i chose to bring them back to europe. and so, and then over the past 3 years, and i guess russia has been waging a brutal, legal, unjustifiable aggression against ukraine with a late since disregard for international humanitarian law. i'm in the video, they go pretty popular as you'll see. the left us however abstain from voting on
12:04 pm
the amended version of its resolution. and eventually the un security council adopted washington's original resolution with 10 votes in favor. and 5 extension was a statement to us present. donald trump has been focusing on doing a deal with ukraine for minerals and resources as part of the piece plan. and he's trying to broker ukraine's president, blocking me as the landscape has not yet committed. but donald trump, himself is polish about his chances of getting a signature meeting with the tech. he may come in this week or next week to sign the agreement made of wood made a deal. so the agreements they worked on now plus the various other things in here to sign as
12:05 pm
well as cross straight over to ukraine. archy bureau chief, nick connelly is standing by there. nick trump says he expects that lensky to appear in his office this week, or next to sign some sort of an agreement. what are you hearing about that from ukraine's government? the way it's clear, terry, that full name is lensky wants to meet trump in person before fighting and pushing does so that has been clear ever since the trump was re elected to the white house, as for whether he will sign them tilted line as jump once into and what this deal actually looked like, there are still sewage question marks that have been many, many drops of disagreement. we never obviously get the draft and it's kind of entirety. we just get briefings of the record. we have bits of snippets from both sides at his press conference, just on the weekend. ahead of the 3rd anniversary versus the invasion, we had moved into the landscape, talking about the fact that the initial deal was gonna take 10 generations for
12:06 pm
ukraine to pay back. that this was basically the us re, basically designating money. they've been given as a to buy, bought and as a loan. and now the money get back and not just them on the back, but the money back with huge interest several times over. what you granted actually receive, that was line from polanski. what this ends up looking like. we don't know, but certainly from the european sources. they said that the initial draft basically looked like we cannot make colonization that the us was trying to basically dominate all the major sectors of ukraine's kind of resource economy and also excludes european and other companies from that. and we've seen, well, it was let's keep pushing back pretty hard here. we've had those comments with trump clement dictator. cholenski said that trump was surrounded by russian just information. and for now, even though he's, you know, focusing all the time on how much he appreciates american support, he is also not in terms of the kind of real content this giving much ground and giving into this pressure from trump in his team. so again, we don't really know what kind of agreement trump is referring to there,
12:07 pm
whether it's a general piece agreement ceasefire agreement, or what the one part of that is apparently negotiations on a possible minerals deal between the us and ukraine. do you have any details on that nic? so this is an idea that initially came from the ukraine inside when they were scratching their heads to try and work out even kind of last year. what could interest jump in ukraine? they may have thought this is a man who likes to make deals who claims to be good at them. and they realize this, the one thing, especially now in terms of electric cause in terms of kind of what kinds of innovation that require some of these rare with metals that historically have long as you come from china, which is now using them as a kind of part of the political game, restricting some of the export of these materials that ukraine has them, at least on paper. and that this could be something that the old truck would buy into. lots of them haven't been commercially mind. they are that according to geological survey, some of which are decades old,
12:08 pm
but certainly now i think people who didn't really expect the don't jump would go in so hard and so far. and this would actually be so seemingly interested in this and whether or not there is a kind of hundreds of millions of dollars worth of these materials in ukraine's so we don't know. but certainly there is a real feeling here and key of that. if america wants to have, you know, hundreds of millions of dollars repaid, that is not something that they're going to agree to. and if they'll jump once in future se, okay, if you want my help, then you're gonna have to pay back. you know, all the stuff we give you that is something different for new deals, but to that kind of open the pandora's box is, let's keep it. and basically, except that you have to repay money that you were given as a, as a gift. that is something that they all staying from on. and i think the us ministration is kind of a bit shocked. quite how did foster your grandson's been in this and how willing they have been to kind of cold the trump email nick, we're seeing a flurry of diplomatic activity between europe and washington right now with both the french and the british leaders visiting this week. how was that impinging on
12:09 pm
efforts to strike some sort of ceasefire agreement for ukraine? well this is obviously the europeans trying to get to the table and avoid russia and at washington doing some deal without the europeans and the ukrainians has to be said the you know, building is on ski is being very clear that he is not going to feel bound binding agreement that trump strikes with the russians without him, you know, they can basically do whatever they want in riyadh, in saudi arabia. that was the line from polanski. i know you're going to agree and engage with things that i am involved in. but we have seen now your be need is going to washington does kind of seeing the division of labor. it's between some good cops and bad cops trying to be more kind of aggressive in the messaging tools trump, and more conciliatory. and maybe, you know, we're going to see some kind of more information on your pin contributions to the kind of day off to potentially lease 5, maybe a kind of a peacekeeping force. we've obviously had kissed almost in the u. k. talk about his
12:10 pm
willing to send you k troops to the french, a bit more kind of circumspect so far and the messaging, but certainly in nato, we seem of stupid out in america. american countries is not the kind of for them, for these kind of missions. now it is clear that these are going to be the, are being countries committing suits, results is to kind of keeping the peace and ukraine officers these far making shows . these were actually works. and you know, the trying to make sure that donald trump listen to them and doesn't, you know, make some kind of commitments and just expect them to carry it out without speaking to them. nick, thank you very much. that was our chief purity, nick connelly as well. on a visit to ukraine, european commission present or so the final line said, the country could join the you in the next 5 years. if it presses a head with reforms she was speaking in key on the 3rd anniversary of russia's full scale invasion. round a dozen leaders from you and kyler, also travel to ukraine. spain has announced a 1000000000 euros and military 8. 14. monday's show. support, however,

12:13 pm
i believe we can be just as effective in securing real guarantees for peace pulled down the landscape. and european leaders wanted a seat at the negotiating table with the us and russia in closest to you. well, we just had the 3 year anniversary of the beginning of russia's full scale invasion of ukraine. and the bible of butcher happened in the early part of the war following russia's invasion, an attempt to take he, after a month of fierce fighting ukraine, took the town back from russia, uncovering evidence of russian war crimes. the war and bottles like this have torn families apart, but given some great result to defend their country. and when the war they call themselves the witches of food, show an unofficial monica known to a mystic sisterhood to lose job because we are working in the food chomsky

12:24 pm
and that is top of potentially 200000000000 extra in defense spending. and that could be decided in the new parliament by declaring an exception, if all parties in government agree that they feel that as an imminent threats, that leads to be addressed. so those are the 2 options that are currently being discussed behind coast doors. and that's why the moved here is a lot more serious. and then the other aspect, somebody has to sell this to a public who faced and election campaign that was mainly on migration and the economy. mckayla, thank you very much for now. that was the w, as chief political editor mechanic of knocked down at the german buddhist. well, the vatican says pope frances remains in critical condition, but as showing signs of slight improvement. the 88 year old pontiff has been battling pneumonia in both loans, at a hospital in rome for over 10 days. and his condition has been worrying millions
