a deal, and that was the us and this is was in the middle of the breaking news at south korea's in page president is arrested. that is due to some trial level last month. marshall crisis also had this out and delivered on the, on the outgoing us secretary of state anthony blinking is repeatedly hackles, is the attempt to lay out a plan for a loan from if it's still under living deal between israel and that the united states does not need any competitor in any areas, starting with energy, where they give it a go ahead to carry out terrorist activities to destroy the basis of the indigent wellbeing of the european union. russia is foreign minister claims washington for

ukrainian, rhode attack on a crucial gas pipeline to europe. slovak officials, who are in moscow for tullocks off the key, and talked to john tons is through. you'd re accused a lot of mr. lensky of sabotaging the energy security all the photos of them to perhaps no one would want to accept that kind of ukraine into the you. if the d u survives at all, because the decisions that are made there are contrary to the interest, typically you remember states the a very good morning to you. this is all the international with the lights as well. news update is great. the happy with us was daunting the out with breaking news from south korea, impeached presidency and secure, and has been detained by investigations. and so he's due to some trial on charges of insurrection,

as power of use of his brief declaration of martial law in december. and a video message released off to his arrest, mister hughes strongly were jacques to it's the case against him, a comfortable. unfortunately, the law has completely collapsed in this country without seeing that warrants are issued by agencies without investigative authority on it. and courts without warrant of us daugherty are issuing arrest warrants in search and seizure warrants on your end. seeing investigative agencies issuing false, official documents to deceive the people. committing a legal acts upon a legal act and forcibly proceeding with procedures based on invalid warrants. i cannot help but feel regretful as i do not approve of the investigation by the corruption investigation office for the time being as the president who must protect the constitution and legal system of the republic of korea. i'm just responding to such a legal and valid procedure, so not an acknowledgement of this, but is merely a desire to prevent an unpleasant bloodshed. let's get more details from our correspondent. don't close the door to me in the studio. good morning,

don't. so as we know, it's the 1st time is still formally sitting south korean presidents has been arrested. what are the details? imagine from solar the night? well, as we just heard from the president there, he said that he's giving up only to prevent bloodshed, but that he completely disagrees with the position of the corruption investigation since he claims that he's done nothing wrong according to you. and he's his decision to enforce martial law last month was intended on defending the country's constitution and its legal system. but the opposition is completely not buying that they're saying that the president is trying to evade justice and that he needs to resign the poles that say you and did not respond to the anti corruption agency summons so and forced the authorities to issue detainment warrants twice. supports you and has been displaying and explain the attitude of contempt. kimberly ation and disregard towards the law. no trouble. i asked the respect the justices just wouldn't remember. emily make a decision to terminate june? don't go on the same page as of protest is on the street. so my daily,

over the past few weeks, it took us through the events leading up to this arrest. well, when the south korean president declared martial law for the 1st time in 40 years, we have to remember this was the something that he said. but he did to come back and t state and communist forces, which looks to mean the opposition. since he's saying that there colluding with north korea. but on the other hand, the leader of the opposition has actually accused the president of putting the country at a huge risk by provoking tensions and a wider conflict with the dpr k union. so you won't hesitate to cause great destruction for small benefits. there was a high possibility of him endangering people's lives by provoking north korea, housing chaos near the military demarkation line. and in the end of closing an armed clash, the citizens, you have to find the file side. suddenly the 1st time that the authorities tried to

obtain the president either, i mean just a couple of weeks ago that took place in the 6 our stand off in front of the president's residents. and they weren't able to, to do anything because hundreds of the president supporters ended up showing up blocking their way into the residence. so with the president giving himself up this time, we're going to have to see how this story unravels. indeed many thanks for everything is up to speed. that's all correspondent, don't quote to a let's discuss this. the less cost live. now 2 strategy unsecure takes, but for the best email i collins, it stronger you case many thanks for joining the program. it's very good to see you . so as we know that has been previous attempts to arrest the south korean president to use, but they ended on the successfully what it was, the guy told him to change this time. just talk us through the details. well, of course they have a weak f us on both sides, on the camera of viewing itself. we have seen how the, the di, hot science has bought this athletic that they themselves. and also of course,

we have seen how and what the way that they have been to, to put that into it. but that's called this number at all. we have seen all why you invested well so you know, all them really the night and the, you know, i don't to me and for, for him to spend that is, that will be to present for the about yes. and, you know, and the venue, i think the use of the session that we have to face this. and the best way for me is to govern nice uh, to have some kind of you know, uh the feedbacks on the fact of him having the awesome one other time. whereas on patient dumps of, you know, still being stronger needs to be dialed and no free me or this whole process has to be you know, the, the, the system is being around doing of the entire suff, corrion legal system. the of, of course i'd be, i'd be most of the galaxy of the no, of course the, the collection on the cross investigation office. i saw that's also the, the momentum that he has. now we see president just with the team. and also he's factions. and we have see how the by the,

the entire software and societies don't solve for, you know, cause of a deep and deeper why. so supposedly in kenzie, we know opinions and say the most as well. the president's house we know was impeached off to his brief and bulge to attempt to impose marshall lower in the country back in december. do you think he understood at the time the, the severe repercussions amongst the south korean, the public that would produce? well one thing i do while i'm doing the rules that be as close as advice, let's have plate been done. so if we don't initiating this a time also. and also of course, the site the most that reveal, you know, the 1st time that this must be the last we cause a little more than for that you send things by august. the 2nd most memories of the author is very fast. and that, so what deals are you on the real reason why us be doing this? why did to best get this or, you know, you just, so i need to put it up before this and thoughts cool so, so whether it is true, be instead of, she's arguable, is that the enter state process,

the end of the institution by not 48 them so you don't damaging the exact same thing with yourself for you, you know, moving forward from the less. and that being said that you have the phone and the cost also. um, you know, it depends on the 5 channels that you, i mean, but regardless of the outcome of the constitutional costs, obviously we'll, we'll then, well be $5.00 to so, okay. and so he is known to be a very conservative in preserving what he has called has the integrity. you start to feel the soft 40 and democratic people older, as opposed to this, you know, and just it costs us. that'd be let punch on. yeah. and we have seen how he has changed before he bodies even deal 40 because, you know, you know, i'm saying well, soft, put it in the lining. we spoke to and washington, you can do the fact and you seem to be, you know, a man that use, you know, i'm, i know this was and that shifts and us being seem to be as the, uh, you know, the, the, the, the, the thing is out of trouble and how we support those as well. so try to get, you know, try them differentiated, inducing framing. june s, the,

the voice of the real people. that's the reverse of the people defending the, the, the, the, the great, the new soft software. and so of course of the, the simulator and then i knew for us all the rest as well. um, what is the mood amongst the south korean people right now, how strong is the the suppose amongst the south koreans? yeah, based on the recent ball missing, one of the 6 people said have been in favor of the basement and soft costs of guessing load to the large or volume of people who have been starting or what? no yet to june and fees. you know, in 10 piece, you know, so you see a kind of by intention to the state of the country and to, to defend the country from the spot he has to, it must be interest the process and also to the find out the spend of the of you for us thinking, i think you can be visiting patricia and by accident of all us, particularly enough for you. and we have seen how the government not providing you

to recreate you funding the so called liberal, you know, best and older. and not surprisingly, this is also being goose as a pretext by the democratic party in the, you know, framing june as you know, you know, putting all this into release and we face qualify, shut off, and get yourself is being used as a free, that's for you know the case for you to be an interaction effect and therefore, you know, bypassing i need, you know, for sure that you know who websites, you know, as opposed to either, you know, either. so i give you my fucks abuse, but we can see that, you know, regardless of the outcome by the constitutional cause, depending on the judge, just be a 5 know the, you know, assume to be able to do piece months. and therefore, we have seen how the, how to invite the also try to be before the appointment of the other. josh, which would then, you know, hopefully to have this more in favor of the decision for you, because it gives you a call later on about the because of the outcome. can see that the still very much

repeatedly divided simself wanting to solve for them for felicia, as also on non duty pulling back to the entire chain or probably portion of the seizure. we've got to talk and we've got to be doing it from get a photo. so before she said, friend, you to me as a be see how this was unfolding the next couple of weeks. you touched upon the how president june supposed to it's an $8.00 to $10.00 of them. he did provide military a to credit even though the south korean government opposed as such a move. why do you think, you know, wanted to kevin? do you consider that to be one of the stepping stones towards his doubtful partly because he wants to be seen as the, the value of the west of the policy. it needs to be seen as to what is you know, starting to do from, from use. but just as a, the librium and you know, he's no one is seen to be the ultimate cause of all truck, most of the boys as an engineer. and so he wants to be seen as the, you know,

reliable department of washington in, in new funding. the new book this order and of course also. ready his unique style of 40, what is he making his legacy off to be no good. he would just be, you know, talk you all in particular, i know for us as the one of the main vegas in the re establish and can do that. and of course, also re establish and use an upgrade to follow back. the 3rd option, you've done some new public everything you say shortly. we've gone through this just before the actual reinforcing virginia. and of course we must go to a southern accent but, but typically we don't. yeah. so um, but do you see the usability enough enough to be seen as part of the probation though? so i don't know because the policy making up i, because you know that most of the past and the can be seen as one that is fully enough to me or you know, unique or different policy making. or we can do since a little government and using its own presidential powers to, to, to do things that the things will be the best part of frontier and has also be the

most your law announcement. but you, mr. blessing. this is one of the, the, the biggest that fall, but the estimate is, you know, we have seen a lot of hist for this as well. so uh, you know, having the same files and completions trying to possibly use these different ways. it goes through the through to of, you know, of geopolitical in prison. apollo probably before the close of 40 of also affecting the why the global highway, who should do this is quite the political scandal for south korea. how is a south korea and people viewing that governments following this? do you think as well, um, you know, the, the, the peoples ballpark, the as being, you know, riding on the we've, off, i'd be a great device. i can give you more, you know, a platform for opening, for the younger population to stand up for by step of the country to take over from the role of policy making of the, the democratic party and you know, but most of police own the action. yes or the fees?

no. one of the, you know, different, you know, scandals loving your 1st lady involving useful inputs and knowing baldwin being, you know, that has been seen by the position as of you know, disregarding the normal tom saying a public boss as a precedent loving fund and all that but uh, you know, and people, you know, he keeps the prices are based on this, a few minutes realization by these people get this, all the tools being goes by the position to, to, to describe yourself when people are gains, why deep downsize to the ultimate imports and then it says, facets of defending the constitution and defending the really interest of the country. and you don't, you just why boy number you support those have been, you know, linking what he has been doing for the past couple months, but across the board to compete with what promised week for america. get it to use the, the bill, you know, victim of these, you know,

want to go wish fun by doing positions and times the are, you know, the, the way to be, you know, the bunch of law and also it has to be you, it's a specificity by the opposition, the same game as the, the ultimate sign or destroyer of the country is as a treat the country. but in mississippi said history with joshua for the good off on the backs of the mississippi. seeing. but i will say that, you know, we have to get to know the stand out, office please, and documents. and so, as of now, the constitutional court, we, we do goes to all the arguments as to whether you will be balance, will be, or, you know, you'll be dealt with as, and then you know, something just to be on points up by different times and fractions and so by piece legacy you see what can sense of what he has done so far with frontier and uh from from i need a new one point of view of the deal if it was um you know, fees you know, has effects, you know, the, the probably pollution in the future, probably question for the country and for the reason and date is going to be

interesting to watch when he, thanks for speaking to us today is really great to get things size and your expertise on the situation that as to what to as trustworthy as secure to expect from the university of milan, collins at tongue you can reach me. thanks. thank you. the next he's been cold blood, the blinking. i'm secretary of genocide and his speech outlining a post full time full gaza. the outgoing us secretary of state was repeatedly heckled and interrupted. we strengthened americans on a wrong and delivered on present funds the thank you, i respect your views. please allow me to show thank you. the

sold will continue these are the goals that i work to advance over a dozen trips to the reasons. 6 the all of this has been part of an all of administration effort piece in the region always has. where

is it hard? yes. is it impossible? no. mediation is all still waiting on the responses. both policy is a source familiar with the math as hells. i'll say, according to the reports, besides the grade and principles of a draft of the guys and says fine and hostage release bill. the 2nd phase of the agreement is said to include an id of withdrawal from garza. well, the 3rd phase will encompass the exchange of bodies, the stance of gauze is reconstruction on the opening of his food, his political strategist, to s t, a c's. prize shaw, who was an advisor to form a middle east peace. and boy, tony blair say felicia sales is the results of trumps. were tons of pounds. i think

president trump is revealed by blinking and democrat pies blood loss. this is the same deal that hamas agreed to last spring and summer. and you know, they allowed benjamin netanyahu to walk away from, you know, the americans and cold the shots of the americans wanted to start this war. they couldn't a one phone call to benjamin netanyahu, restricted weapons, restricted finance, restricted a, this restrictive political support. and then do this tomorrow, the only reason i think that this will hold as president trump has probably said privately oh, through his invoice that it just doesn't hold. they'll be political repercussions. so benjamin netanyahu, we'll know terms of his own political career moves and even cares about the is re occupation. i think he cares about staying and how, because he's got his own domestic legal problems to deal with himself. so he draws a impala and deal with those really progressions where americans holding out completely and leaving him in a vacuum way. he'll have to deal with his own accountability. now we want to israel

breaks the spot prematurely seen the by the, the one and 11 on. but i think in this case where you're going to see as nan yahoo in these re occupation china retention, sadly on the west back. and i have the international community mobilizes to make sure palestinians are protected in the west bank cost of this. so as a possible hostage deal between the boss and as well as come on to strong criticism is where the national security minister ben cavellas, even selections to resign from the national who cabinets and attempts to scott the agreements. the official is known as a hard line or opposing any compromise with them. it isn't quite of the i cool on my friend finance minister base, a little smoke outreach to join me in full cooperation against the terrible d. like as being formulated together and formed the prime minister clearly and family that if the deal goes through, we will resign from the government stop. i emphasize even if we are in opposition, we will not bring down nothing. yahoo!

this move is our only chance to prevent its implementation, and in fact, to prevent the surrender of the state of israel to her mouth and to ensure the deaths of hundreds of idea of soldiers will not be in vain. the, well, i have to say that the reaction to the deal, one that could bring hostages home and help and the gas, a conflict which has claimed over 46000 lives, including more than 14000 children, is mixed. and yes, some criticising, even before it's officially announced, then we're taking down the bill for including the release of palestinian prisoners in exchange for hostages. he says, all the power steering inmates are terrorist. he's not happy with the return of gallons to the north altogether. street and israel's full withdrawal and extreme right. national security to administer a viewer has consistently favor the military pressure on her mazda over talks. hand has supported respect when guys of with jewish settlers simply for he wants the war

to continue know and finance minister, small tre, told him ben, vera has invited to leave the call issue and has also called the deal a catastrophe for his ro security. how green that is for present at surrender to have mice, but it's unlikely. who will join the beer? has their relationship has been tends recently since they are voted against the fights of blond smoke which pushed forward. and even if they leave it as not to the threat to neither the call they should know they deal or another critical point is but israel, according to they still plans to set up a boxes folder with guys or with idea for to stations they are. so we are looking as a much stronger is really presence around the gather street, even with the dylan plains. also, there is one major question, will the deal, and the war actually have mass wants to stay in power, but israel says they will not stop the war until the mazda is completely dismantled and how they bridge that gap is still a mystery. meanwhile,

a growing number of is really sold or is a breaking the silence on the 16 months conflict and guys, some are refusing to, sir, are saying they witnessed or took part in actions that crossed ethic a lines. when you're burning down the house, when you're doing something very severe for absolutely no reason, then that's the time when i have to say, i'm not willing to participate. soldiers who served during this war, signed a letter saying we're, we're not gonna, we're not going to play along with the same anymore. enough as enough enough, by enough manipulation, political manipulation of this war. uh, we're not going to be plans in your war anymore and we're raising our voice. currently 98 hostages, remain in guys with at least 34 confirmed dad. and they slaves, 64 epic tease, potentially lie waiting for the rest food. and the do any deal is they only chance

the russian foreign minister. so again, our off has the keys, the us of direct responsibility for ukraine's recent drones strike on the tug stream pipeline. the car is gas from russia to your a good evening as opposed to the united states does not need any competitor in any areas. starting with energy, where they give the go ahead to carry out terrorist activities to destroy the basis of the energy wellbeing of the european union. they now is like the ukrainian clients to take out the tucker freedom gas pipeline. just like notes threatening my issue and there are a lot of sanctions implemented against china even against its allies, without blinking or of the sanctions are imposed as soon as there is the slightest bit that they will produce something cheaper somewhere and will promote it more effectively to international market, then american manufacturer is doing since the stop of transit of russian gas through ukrainian territory caused by

t of starting from january 1st. the 3rd stream has become the most important route for the supplies of russian energy, central europe, fans, according to the russian defense ministry. on the 11th of january, ukraine used 9 aircraft type view of these to attack a compressor station which forms gas into the pipeline in across the region. in russia, thankfully for uh you are being consumers. the damage wasn't critical. and so this compressor station continue supplying gas into the pipeline for this elaborate says that it's now become a tradition for outgoing democratic administrations in the us to try to make life as difficult as possible for the incoming republican ones. the same, he says, happened with obama right before he left eve, spelled dozens of russian diplomats and arrested russian diplomatic property, reading a huge role with russia, which then incoming back then for the 1st time president donald trump inherited

collateral says that the same is now with this attack on the 3rd stream because see if doesn't do anything without the approval of washington. and the foreign minister says that even serbia is under a lot of pressure. now it's uh, being pressured by washington to hold all its activities with the russian energy companies for it's a joy would be interesting sanctions and serbia and russia. i key allies. so this is quite a difficult position being created for serbia. and again, for donald swans coming in now, the form minister says that all of this just shows how the currents remaining or leading us administration just keeps saying during the voice of the american people, which shows and showed in that the election that very don't agree with the current policies, yet they still continue with them. so your going back to the attack on the truck stream. what's been the reaction from turkey, you know, surprisingly, but there hasn't been any strong reaction coming out of turkey,

which tends to be said about hungry, which is one of the key consumers of russian gas. west listed in the church stream pipeline is indispensable in the natural gas supply and hungry and central europe, security of energy supply as a sovereignty matter. therefore, every action that threatens the security of our energy supply must be considered an attack against sovereignty. the 140 minutes earlier said to that, so this attack on search stream doesn't only threaten hungary, energy, security, but the entire energy security of the european union. were there any signs that the turkish pipeline would be targeted? why would kia have decided to attack the term stream, starting from january 1st, the contract between russia and ukraine on the transit operation. gaston central europe, it expired. t if decided not to prolong it, not to assign a new one. effectively making this the 3rd stream pipeline,

the main route for rushing, the energy supplied to central europe is not only hungry which is being effected. slovakia is also one of those countries. it's also one of the main consumers. in fact, the slot, our prime minister, even has called on vladimir zelinski to meets to discuss this whole situation ation and try to understand, do you have stance on this process? it was it and it gives us that your decision just of the transitive gas through ukraine. just the lock. yeah. and so i the recipients is causing significant harm to ukraine itself. there's the voc, yeah. and in particular to the european union, while it provokes a variety of reactions which is not conducive to either by electro. all moved to actual relations as the highest representative from the slow book executive allow me to invite you to negotiation towards the earliest possible opportunity. understanding the demands of your agenda. so yeager, what has key i've had to say. what is the last the reply to this in his own matter,

i guess, which many found a bit rude. because basically said if you want to talk, come through to you. and let's discuss this, but apparently sonic authorities aren't really in the mood of the visiting key of right now. especially in this context. instead, i bet it gets it from sort of. i can't even rush that right now. and guess what they're discussing. of course, energy is among the key issues i problem as we delegation from slovakia as in most go seeking ways to ease the energy crisis product by ukraine's decisions because the transit of washing gas. we spoke with the head of the slovak group, who said he has latest moves will back fine. the decision is made at the level of precedence lensky, and is also not in the interest of ukraine, even though ukraine is losing a 1000000000 euros because of this problem. often, not because of transit fees to out of the way we see this as a purely political decision that will not harm the russian federation or questions that will harm e u. member states and their economies. typically, e u has adopted several packages of sanctions and they have affected our standard

of living funds, not the standard of living of people in russia. and we would like this to stock, or there are also voices and other member states that these senseless sanctions are damaging our economies. not a cubic meter of gas and the e. u is 4 times more expensive than, for example, in the us. it would be some of this is not a normal situation. prime minister fits so send a letter to zelinski inviting him to further negotiations. if and in response, he received some words that were quite offensive. i don't think that was worthy of a president of any country, but he certainly has no place in modern europe in the modern world. perhaps no one would want to accept that kind of ukraine into the you, if the you survives at all, because the decisions that are made there are contrary to the interest of the e. u. member states. always good savvy with us, hey, on the international, if you'd like more all the latest updates on breaking news story in south korea to head to our website on the don't com or even best. so join us again to the top of them.
