regional conflict. well, we've been warning about the edge of the war for months. it was very clear for me from october 7 onwards last year. i mean 2023 after the massacre committed by some us, which we all of close come down to a we immediately afterwards we said that the, the government, the fees were based. interested in the file and so you know, the to pursue with its own flashy. stay on the top. i want to be very clear, isn't it? is that i to the existing secuity and is the right to defend the same. but that's not the case. the case visa visa probably stimulates as a may 1st and foremost, but also because of the labor and on syria in the m. n. a. the case is, as i said before, the interest of this government to a bill. so one way another. busy of violence, in order to survive as

a government in order to execute the decisive plan. that these interested in the next agent, the an extension of the but a scene in territory as everybody knows. that the only way to live in secuity for everyone, including these readings, of course is this is the end of the genocide because up it's the end of the tax and on his team. and people are, there isn't any diesel. busy eventually ending the occupation, that's the only way that we or, or paperless of the issue. i've seen incident, but he's a, he's a, is a, it's, it's, i'd say it, but that's the only way that we could keep secuity. unfortunately, the government to me is that he's not interested in that kind of money. and president jose role marino has responded with a hard no to negotiations with us. president elect donald trump over control of the

panama canal. a good night in front of me. there's nothing to talk about. the canal is panamanian and belongs to panamanians. there is no possibility of opening any kind of conversation around this reality, which has cost this country blood, sweat, and tears. thom has accused panama. i've charging excessive use fees for the central american waterway. of the panamanian president has argued that tariffs are formed openly based on market conditions which i'm fused as christmas message to single out. china, i choosing bane chang, of having a military presence in the region to exert control of the canal. president marino has denied those claims and offered us authorities a chance to inspect the region to move the whole world is free to visit the canal, come and try to find a chinese soldier. here i give a personal credit to president elect donald trump for bringing this up amendment the merry christmas to all, including to the wonderful soldiers of china, or lovingly but illegally operating the panama canal,

where we lost 38000 people in its building. 110 years ago, always making certain that the united states puts in billions of dollars and repair money, but will have absolutely nothing to say about anything to the 82 kilometers long canal was built by the united states in 1914 trumps accusations. come 47 years after the jury has carter treaties. an agreement signed by the that american and panamanian presidents over the gradual width and drawl of us control of the canal. the final, transferred to panama, took place in 1999 on dozens of protesters and gathered outside the us embassy in the capital to protest the president alex threat to regain control of the canal video, shows demonstrators waving flags and signs as they chanted and sang, panama national anthem, banners showing trumps image were set on firewall security. personnel were deployed to, to guard the compound. we heard from some of the protesters. most of the we,

i'm a, we categorically repudiate the imperialist pretensions of the united states view of wanting to continue perpetuating its military presence on not only in panama, but it is also interested in greenland and is interested in turning canada into another us state. this is panama, this is our territory. we have a flag and we have self determination. we spoke to a former administrator of the panama canal, jorge key hondo. he says, donald trump's threats to reapply, or the waterway are illegal and kind of mazda sovereignty, is the priority a real good? okay. okay. the how many i believe the threats made by president elect donald trump, regarding the potential react position of the panama canal, because he's unhappy with the price is panama charges calling them a legal. there's no way to do this legally. after his saturday comments. we've seen other countries come forward to support panama in its sovereignty over the canal,

panama, as sovereign over its territory in the canal is part of that territory. while the canal is a state owned enterprises, it operates completely independently from the central government. it has a constitutional title that granted considerable financial autonomy. i think these disputes are primarily rhetorical and won't lead to any real issues. it's sort of the threats and rhetoric from the president elected the united states are reminiscent of the things we've seen in the past regarding various topics. not just panama, but it really went out to kind of like stand where the cause of the airplane crash that killed. 38 people is still under investigation. the decoding of the black box or flight data recorder is set to begin on friday when brazilian experts arrive. as according to the countries deputy prime minister of the slow, when international experts drawing unambiguous conclusion, the prosecution will be able to present a version of what happened while at the same time continuing forensic measurements

. we have received no official version from any country, neither russia nor azerbaijan, while constructing aversion in leaning into it would be impossible and irresponsible. we are currently employed as us down the act. how hospital when those who survived in the deadly plane crash, a currently being treated how what we know so far as the oh boy don't stop playing that was 68 passengers. 38 of from unfortunately died and 29 increasing 3 children have survived. there are several versions on what actually happened. unfortunately, they're not concerned. so what we've had so far, one of the versions being that that was collection with buds and the other one from the cause of transport minister. and he said that there was information that, that was explosion of an oxygen cylinder that happened on boards. that testing is not just what you said. 31053853, moscow time. the real stuff like direct to inform the act out tell a flight director that an oxygen cylinder had exploded in the passenger cabin of

the aircraft. passengers were losing consciousness and requested resuscitation upon arrival. hey, also added the old. imagine the services were ready to receive the cross and arrived quickly at the scene tools back you ways. those passengers who survives in the plane crash. we've also heard from the deputy health care. minnesota, who said that 9 russians, such as those have been transported to moscow for treatments as well as 14, as invite johnny, they will be transported to that homeland for further treatments. we will also have from the deputy prime minister, who stated that neither of the size provided official information or what actually happened and why on the reasons behind the a plane crash. and as soon as we heard from honest us here, there, there are many versions of what possibly happened to this plane. what's the narrative circulating in the western media? a common area is simply put,

is that for officials from the other based on the governments and folks on the basis of i know many suggest that a russian surface to air missile and or the air defense system was responsible for the downing of the plane. but according to a number of statements from caused by professionals, as well as the prosecutor's office within bulky, they suggested that the investigation will be important. moving forward, that the prosecutor's office will be taken into account every and all scenarios. and whatever those hypotheses may be. and that is of course, taking into consideration factors that we might not even know at this get a moment as we understand that the investigation is ongoing. despite what some of the theories in western media suggests, which is of course, that the aircraft was diverted outside of russian territories, essentially shifting blame and of, or any responsibility away from the states or the russian federation. and of course, taking into consideration i witness testimony and other essentially hypothetical.

that's the situation is a little bit more different than we initially anticipated. we also understand that based on a number of statements that the possibility is of course, and that the aircraft did, of course, diverged for a number of safety reasons. of course it's going to be important. see what the prosecutor's office is. whether we're talking with the prosecutors off some bucket or, and i thought i'd have to essentially put forth and this is going so far as conclude with a for a and thorough investigation before we can make any kind of judgments and honest us . yeah, here or near the hospital where the survivors from this crash were taken. what have you heard from their relatives? the cause of transport? minnesota states is that 6 patients are currently being treated as at the hospital that is behind me. 3 of them off from my set of by john on 3 off from can get started and we've actually heard from the relatives of those who are being treated less less with them. you should have with them. i heard that there was a plane crash, josh ended,

then they called me and said that my brother and his wife were on that plane. we just managed to get here from us or by shawn to the hospital. there isn't any news yet. it is unknown whether they are alive or not. i do not know if they are here at all, or if they are already in the morgue, we hope that everything will be fine and that they are alive to the other. so, but that's a bit of a sudden i came here to see my cousin, but i didn't find him here. so the doctor said they had sent him to the morgue. i live in ostrich on myself and my relatives called me and told me about the disaster . i came here thinking that i would find my brother alive. well, we have to say, hey, there's actually a miracle that nearby hoff of the passengers who were in board of thought plain traveling from i said by chance of gross me actually survived. it's a developing story and we'll have to wait and see as we get further information and the i'll send them back to you as i want to ask about the black box, which i understand has been found that's always critical in investigations of this

plane, crashes of course modern day aircraft, just that hearing through international aviation security standards assess the 2 different black boxes. we understand. one of the black box is, was discovered early on as soon as the events concurred. but the 2nd black box was discovered in the later hours of a thursday, and we understand that the separate black box is of course done so to protect the telemetry data on the tools, as well as the avi onyx on board. the flight, which essentially gives us a better understanding of what went wrong with the aircraft. and the 2nd black box, which also provides us a better understanding of what went down and the carpet as the aircraft was deciding before it crashed in the cause. ok, city of so, and this is important moving forward because as soon as the 2nd black box was discovered, it identified because it shows of course, got in touch with the brazilian craft company abroad and essentially put together a task force that will be working together with the cars authorities,

particularly in the forensic investigation and the allegations that are being sent forth by many western media outputs, they're going to be able to get together assess the damage is 1st and foremost, but also take into consideration. the black box is the, the data that stored in their decipher everything before they can provide us with a better understanding of what really went down. a former test like ation official told us and the survivors had the pilots to thing for managing to crash land to the plane without killing everyone on board. a simple case of music, very slow and inter governmental commission is currently collecting all relevant information, including details about the aircraft. it's crew, the airports of departure, and landing details on the operation of navigation services and information about the technical condition of the airplane. if the plane landed on water, i believe there would have been very few survivors at high speeds. when an aircraft strikes the water, it disintegrates almost immediately. therefore, in this respect,

the pilots sacrificed their lives to save most of the passengers. the crew acted very professionally and i believe they did everything they could to get the plane to octo airport. moreover, they were highly experienced pilots. however, the issue is related to the fact that the investigation is not carried out in order to identify who is guilty. but rather to determine the causes. in other words, the investigation is typically a political in nature and where letters are set to head off to early elections as they await the german president's decision about dissolving the country's parliament transfer offshore. lost a confidence vote earlier this month after the coalition government collapsed are to contribute to rachel marston breaks the story down the dissolution of abundance staggered by the german presenters today has been expected ever since. earlier this month. chancellor off schultz, rab duct the non confidence bus and promptly took

a flying dive right under it. normally someone else passes you under the bus, but shots beat them to it. and then he wrote his own political, you g, just to be sure that it's framed as a willing and selfless act of political sacrifice for the good of the nation. rather than just the pre empting oven inevitable shots. and the start smart folks are bringing forward the bonus tag. collections is my goal through it. the citizens will then be able to determine the political course of our country. that's what it's all about. therefore, i am raising the question of confidence for the voters. do we have trust in ourselves in our country? no point staying in power though when you can't get anything done because the yellow light, centrist party of your traffic light coalition government's majority bills out as it did earlier this year. and the majority of the bonus tag proved to be quite willing to indulge salts, approving his own notion of non confidence in himself. the vote also turned out to be a real chance for law makers to pay on mars to schultz,

his leadership. the dispute mister chancellor, did not arise because the f d p has denied you tax hikes or the dissolution of the debt break. the dispute arose because they were unwilling and unable to hold together a coalition of the s p d, greens and f t p, which no longer fit together at the back in front. they are leaving the country and one of the biggest economic crises in post for history. it's the 2nd time that we've been in recession for 2 years in a row. now when it comes to europe, i would rather not tell you what other european heads of state and government say about you behind your back for the whole off shot and showed again today that he has no strength for fundamental changes. his answers completely failed to address the deep problems of the inadequate fitness for economic competition. speech kind of so why? so living or is there so says former finance minister is kind of like an x saying exactly what he thinks about 10 minutes after the breakup. as the head of team

schultz, his yellow light, centrist freedom, democratic party, living are refused to take his foot off the debt break. when schultz came asking for even more cash for things like ukraine and fighting climate change, and lender started treating shots like he was just really a board house wife who spends all day blowing cash at the high end boutique for you print up too impressed his girlfriend zalinski, i guess, i mean there was like, no, i'm pompous, getting the credit cards and you can just give you frame the long range taurus, muscles that you already have sitting around in your closet about the time the current chancellor has proposed making another 3000000000 euro available for ukraine, but another 3000000000 wouldn't make a difference given the amount of funds available. if we want a different stronger support for ukraine, then it's not another 3000000000 that we need to. germany should make the decision to equip ukraine with the weapons. it's people need to defend their freedom,

namely the tourist missile system. but there has been no willingness to do so. yeah, you've got those things just sitting around in the closet that you can either give away to the homeless at the salvation army or as a donation to ukraine. uh, yeah. who really cares about escalation and the risk. they're all into a potential world war when it comes to saving a bit of money right now. so anyway, lynn are billed out and took the yellow light with them because schultz wasn't interested in any of that. that left shorts, his red light party and the greens who had some really dismal eastern state and european part of entry election results this year. mainly because climate change is much less of an obsession for voters when there are suddenly a real life problems caused by teen schultz. this policy is on everything from ration and security to create an energy. so the green parties on leaders also build out in september and the party is more focused on what kind of face lifts it can

now get to seduce voters once again that aren't anything else. so the political playing field as a result of all this change has opened up for the anti establishment right wing a f d party, whose leader also made a point of paying her own tribute. you could say to schultz, his leadership when he staged a memorial service for it himself, with his own non confidence vote, will actually just hold off. schultz has been the worst chancellor. the federal republic has ever had. germany is in the deepest, most severe economic, financial energy and migrant crisis, or parliament faction has just discussed this. even though there wasn't much to discuss. we won't support shots in the confidence vote, except for 3 persons worried friedrich merits might become a war chancellor. what are you doing instead of seeking ties with washington and moscow, where the keys to piece lie? the chancellor and friedrich merits go to kia, have to waste even more money than before. for administer bare box and to sizes

about deploying german troops to ukraine and risking escalation. while mister murtz wants to risk world war 3, with the delivery of taurus cruise missiles capable of reaching moscow to ukraine. this will turn germany into a direct party to the war and the target of an impending nuclear conflict. germany in europe should never be drawn into war again. that right there is the german party leader with the most support among voters for chancellor, according to a recent poll in bills and according to that survey, she's up for points on friedrich mertz, the christian democrat establishment. right opposition leader. and nearly 10 points up on shots popularity. that isn't exactly surprising though, considering the convergence of so many positions between the anti stop as in right and left to seem to be increasingly resonating with voters, particularly against the search and really noddy global as positions of the

establishment. they present themselves as chancellors of peace, and yet they support the largest rearmament program in the history of the alliance . you have fallen too often, mister schultz, for us to trust that your word on torres will still hold after the election. mister mertz has recently developed a memory gaps and can suddenly no longer remember his torso ultimatum. here in the brenda's talk to chancellor candidates with memory loss. that's how well germany is armed via the next has also suggested that shows was a vassal chancellor, which jives with what bible was saying recently that germany has become basically a vassal of washington and of the you, which she says, germany should really just leave in favor of voluntary participation in the sort of you wide free trade zone instead of siding in particular, the blocks destruction of the german auto industry and judging by recent comments from the f. these co chair nato membership could also be in the director seat. if

it doesn't, back off. russia has already won this war, reality has caught up with those who claim to be seeking to enabled ukraine's victory. so far, europe has been forced to implement america's interest and we reject that. a defense community must accept and respect interests of all european countries, including russia. if nato cannot ensure that, then germany must consider the extent to which this alliance is still useful to us . and finally, get to the point of seeking to end the war. so germany is now heading for a re shuffling of the deck in an election expected at the end of february, which is shaping up to be yet another face off here in europe, between an increasing the radicalized establishment status quote on one hand. and on the other, those who are simply fed up with it to stay with us here on our to international up next on cross talk with peter lavelle and his guest discussed the incoming trump administrations slow realization the ending,

the current conflict is more difficult than starting a war for now the the hello and welcome to cross ok. we're all things are considered. i'm peter level. as the year ends being coming, trumpet and ministration continues to believe it can in the conflict in ukraine. trump and his people are beginning to understand ending this conflict is more difficult than starting a war. the problem is moscow cube, and washington want different outcomes. the

cross section ukraine. i'm joined by my guess, carla nixon in washington. he's a political analyst and radio who's in pittsburgh. we have jim calvin though he is a political analyst and, and certainly you have dr. of bosnia t as i do a political and military analyst or a gentleman cross sock rules and the fact that means you can jump any time you want . and i always appreciate it. let's go to a drag out 1st. and serbia, a one glimmer of light coming out of the incoming trump administration is keith kelly general keith kelly as old as the cold war by the way. so he's got a lot of experience or he's antiquated, we will find out as we move forward here. he says a trump does not want a settlement to collapse like to 2014 minutes agreements. when i read that i was kind of like, well at least he knows what the minister agreements are. that's a good starting point for this here, because most people talk to you about this complex. i have no idea what i meant. what are you talking about? at least he's aware of it. i'm not sure what he thinks it means. so that's are

jumping off point on the trumpet administration, claiming it can. and this conflict which i've been very dubious of, ever since the present the legs claimed he could do that. go ahead drago. well, i mean, is it? he said it's, it's very, um it's, it's a good thing that he knows what dimensions agreements are in place. he's not saying it was done, you know, to the, by time for the key of regime as was the case with the previous uh, western leaders, particularly uh, the former president of france salon and former chancellor, germany mircle. so who will actually send that over to me? that it was, it was just a ruse to get the russians, you know, to give them your trains enough time to prepare for the war. uh, so this is good.
