the incredible gymnast size, the headlines tories, this, our new us president donald trump, threatened russia with economic repercussions to try and force a settlement to the brain conflict that's after failing to meet his own pledge to end the crisis in 24 hours. a lot of years, the entity wants at least 200000 european soldiers in your train to enforce that potentials. things fire at digger with russian testers by no foreign boots being on the ground in the country named is one of most of those major conditions for peace . just days off to the him asked israel seized by adults, a brief sense of relief. the west bank is now one wire play incidence unlikely is real self labeled counter terrorism. operation continues in the west bank with at

least 10 people killed since tuesday, the just a few moments into a brand new day here in moscow, thursday, january the 23rd. welcome to the r t international news. our donald trump is demanding russia, bringing in to its operation in ukraine. know now so after the us president failed to meet his own pledge to settle the conflict. remember, in 24 hours, not aiming to ended in $100.00 days, the new american leader has threatened most with economic repercussions. if it refuses to go along with the ultimate. i'm going to do russia, who's economy's failing, and president bush in a very big favor. settle now and stop this ridiculous war. it's only going to get worse if we don't make it to you and soon i have no other choice but to put high levels of taxes. tyrus and sanctions on anything being sold by russia to the united

states and various other participating countries. let's get this war which never would have started if i were president over with. we can do it the easy way or the hard way. and the easy way is always better. it's time to make a deal. no more live should be lost on the campaign trail last year. he's a bit of a show mind. he's like, i'm going in this war in 24 hours. i'm going to make everything disappear and now those campaign promises, if a really going up in smoke, we heard all the he was in the election a little bit more about. oh, you know, if most of it doesn't come to the negotiating table, i'm going to come down on them like a pilot breaks. i'm going to give careful of the mind of the u. s. a. but now we're hearing even more about these threats of economic sanctions. against russian or if it doesn't come to the negotiating table. but let's not forget donald trump is playing both sides against each other because he's also being held in kev. hey, we're not going to give you blanket checks anymore. we don't provide to send you money, funds, weapons,

whatever it is you're gonna have to give up territories. so i think really what we're seeing is this young man who is trying to say, well, we won't do this if you don't do that. and he's waiting to see where the channels you pull over and then try and take credit for whatever happens if something good comes out of it. but i think what's really important to show here is he had said this would all be only about 24 hours off the he assumed the presidency that has clearly not happened. well, well, pass that deadline. now we're now hearing from his special envoy, keith kellogg, that it's going to be 100 days. that's very different to 24 hours. and even on top of that, we are hearing from others within the trump administration that this could make me 6 months worth talking. spies suggesting that we could get plugged into this and this could essentially become his vietnam's. remind us what russia's stance has been all impossible. peace talks with kids. well, wash is always being clear. it is open to piece folks in fact as being tweaking with its american allies all the way back in 2021 saying hey, all we want is

a guarantee that you claim doesn't join that nature. you give us that. we pretty much okay on this. and yet, despite that, the western governments like no, it's up to you crazy. if it wants to join nato notes, expression is always being clear. it's open for tubes. when it comes to blackmail like any country, nope, you can react very well. awesome. in fact, in 2 days ago, president clinton was saying, look, the only way we can solve this crisis is if we go back to the route to for the crisis was and this is all way back in 2014. lisa actually was easy. we also hear his statement about the need to do everything to prevent a 3rd world war. of course, we welcome this attitude and congratulate the president elect of the united states of america on assuming office. i would like to emphasize that we have never refused to have a dialogue. we have always been ready to maintain smooth cooperative relations with any american administration. i have already said this many times. we're also open to dialogue with a new us administration on the ukrainian conflict with them. the most important

thing here is to eliminate the root causes of the crisis, which we have discussed many times so that it was a red line. once again, no attention to ne, 2 for ukraine, and also for the recognition of the nearly incorporated territories into russian. of course, climb a fax from a decade ago. those are the things that she wants that hasn't changed. let me touch upon what you just said. there are nato ukraine's ambitions to join it along. there's lindsay coming out with some revelations on not. yeah, that's right. so he's been a devil. austin, he's been going around saying european countries need to spend 5 percent of the g. d. p on defense on the line, not to of donald trump because he's trying to sort of cozy up to trump values in the white house. but we've also been hearing so landscape trashes western allies. this company's trash them. we put them trust them several times at the last few years, but he's now basically said the western allies plowed white lie to ukraine,

saying that they will take you quite to join nato. that's just listen to it yet. say, shot. that was not a very transparent pulse at 1st, yet some countries did not support our entry into nato temple, and these were seems a lie. so that's yeah, so we'll see. cream will be ne, a decade has passed. so what happened and ukraine is not in nato. and therefore, it was designed us towards the ukraine and ukrainians. and was also these on us from our leaders rush when some of our leaders said not we were promised that we would be made. so if anybody was also, it is honest. and i believe the german in the united states and a weak position because they had a dialogue with the russian great in the germany and the united states. we know coding does landscape on the side there to that we also heard from hunger in slovakia, who met in brought this up with this was open and a seat safe. and folks saying that that countries weren't supposed to need to say that for ukraine. but i think what we need to look at here is if it's true that western allies who never want to do cranes during the day to live,

why have we have this? who, hong, those. but the last 3 years where we have heard need to leadership and west somehow is saying, well, it's up to court and if they want to join nato, we support them if they want to do it. and i think the answer is very clear who has made the money out of a school. and that is the military industrial complex, mainly in the united states and billions and billions and billions of dollars with contracts that have gone into sending weapons to create an hour stage where it's clear that you have con whitney who is going to win again. and that's going to be those who are going to invest in the reconstruction of the country. and i think we all know with the, our as a pointing in regards to who makes the money on that. so i think it's really interesting. now we're saying you crane change, it's cheap. crating change some reaction to this former senior security policy analyst in the office of the us secretary of defense and michael maloof told r t. it is ukraine, which should be pressured sooner. go shade. those must go,

as all was said, it is open to talks, is zelinski who refuses to negotiate with the russians. he's made that very clear. try these to take the pressure. and so lisky to present is already said he's ready . nobody else. so, you know, let's, let's get the story straight here let's you know, and, and trump needs to get better information, better intelligence. and i think he's working on that. he's already beginning. he's already kicked out by the way of the panic on those responsible in the pedagogy for ukraine. so he's replacing them with other folks. this is just the analysis, the, the, the naming of a new on roy for, for, for uh, not only middle lease, but also for to the eastern europe. and i think that we're going to be work and he's given he's given a general kellogg is emissary for ukraine and russia,

$100.00 days to work it out. now now that trump is officially in office, i think a rush. it will probably work with a cataloguing catalog will take messages back to, to truck, but i think it's got to be done very, very soon, because trump is on a trump, is it, you know, acting in what speed he wants to resolve these conflicts. so it seems and diminish wards, donald trump's pick for you and them box it or box the idea that israel is plain to the westbank. is it defined? right? i did ask you whether you subscribe to the views of finance ministers, some of which rich and the former national security minister ben to the or who believe that israel has a biblical right to the entire westbank. is that your view today? yes. okay. i think when it comes to this very difficult issue,

if the president is going to succeed at bringing peace and stability to the middle east, it's going to be very difficult to achieve that. if you continue to hold the view that you just expressed while on choose day, the idea finalize the start of its so called counter terrorism operation in the westbank city of janine the iron wall, which could last up to 7 days. according to military analyst, the it's really army past so far, kilted and palestinians, which it claims were terrorist. the idea for launch raids, just hours after president trump rescinded bite and nearest functions curbing is really settlers. the local media is reporting that the palestinian authority security services were asked to withdraw from the area earlier while movement, both inside and outside the city is said to be severely restricted palestinians in

jeanine are furious with the idea of factions. so how does that tell you? i'm going to, yeah, i had surgery 3 days ago when i was returning in the morning, an arabic speaking soldier came to the hospital door and said, you have from 9 to 5 o'clock and then you have to leave about if one of you is late for that he will sleep inside the hospital. uh huh. by then how come? so i'm after $45.00 days of exhaustion without electricity or water. the occupation forces came and stormed. the place we're inside the camp. it was difficult image showing and gunfire. martyrs falling in the streets, in addition to many injuries, there were 10 martyrs and more than 45 injuries. all this came in addition to the exhaustion we suffered for 45 days. well that's led mother, she what else you wanna ation? hey, the situation is difficult, there is nothing. there is nothing. no medicine, no food. they. the people in the hospital have nothing us. people want to leave the hospital and go home. they risk their lives to go home. well, since october 2023,

the idea of and there's really settlers have intensified attacks in the west bank, according to the u. n. c. military and office, at least 870 people have been killed with a boast ending health ministry stating around a 5th of that number of children are tease, middle east correspondent, re as in austin has been looking into the timing of the on folding adf operation. all just days off to the head, mazda israel seized by a, brought a brief sense of relief. the west, the bank is not on fire, for instance, unlikely. we're now at the observation point from where we can see g mean a palestinian city. and these really occupied westbank, where a major is really military operation has been on the way since tuesday. we tried to get inside, which were stopped at the nearest chair, for and soldiers blocked the road. and the entry sight and extreme danger images from the ground show. the significant destruction of infrastructure is really bulldozers have torn up major roads. a tactic often used by the army to prevent

explosives from being pointed. now is really forces have blocked access to jeanine's government hospital, effectively besiege an ambulance, has come to enter or leave the facility, the director of the hospital warrant. but this is a very dangerous situation that the red cross is informed about it. the death toll hayes grinding, where the palace, student health ministry, confirming multiple fatalities and injuries. while at the check point, we observe these really forces is courting detainees in white uniforms. who are believed to be one to individuals from jeanine based operation comes less than 48 hours after the guy is a sci fi raising questions about it's time multiple reports indicate that the escalation in the west bank was a condition set by hawkish finance. but it's a small switch to remain either call as soon as you remembers. moultrie. suppose this is real. how mazda agree went and threatening to resign if the deal went through. but eventually he stayed with no clear reasons. shortly after jeanine

operation began, small appreciate the meet at the hays party pushed for the intensified military focus on the west bank or israel calls duty and scenario. here's them on those advocating for the annexation of these area. make it in part of a's role is rosa, as the operation aimed at eliminating the terror threat posed by him us and the palestinian islamic jihad, a leg really entrenched in jeanine, protecting nearby israeli communities. and ensuring that the west bank no longer poses a threat, least very similar to the objectives of the guys of war. since the war started hit october 2023. they have been over 2000 attempts to the tax recorded coming from the west bank in 2024 alone, 26 people, both as really and for nationals have been killed and attacks with more than 1200 the wounded. but again, for palestinians, there's something that sees ro, kohl's terror, it is viewed as acts of resistance against is really occupation solve some the

believe this could mark the start on the road to ask for it to bring to westbank on the full is really control the timing of this operation raises questions again, after months of opposing a deal with him, us. what made benjamin antonia will make a you turn a greeting to the deal that includes the idea of full withdrawal from the poly student in place. and many know, speculate the this westbank cooperation. good whole part of the on sir. what we can cross the live now to ramallah and speak to a journalist on specialist on is really us relations call doing at barton good. see for his view on this, tell you and you're welcome. the idea of celebration in the west bank. it's taking place just days after they come off as real a cease fire. i'm from send or go ration. is there a direct link to those events in your, if you well, i don't think it has the correlation with trump or low we we have been seeing from

the new appointed the opi shelves without us. it could have been obvious, state of context, simple if there's an in the bus that go through and then cub suppositories or atlanta believes and a blue candle. uh, a light of the drawers. and uh that was the bank. the envelope close to the is that island us or the american on both sides of the is that of an old. so who doesn't believe that there is something called was bank, it's going to the and so marian theaters and slips or 2 months, 6 months equals, went down. but when it comes, i think, and there's a little they believe that the, these messages put them on by these up point things. it means that he will give is the end up, read them to do anything in the bank of the deal. and because and after being gabriel is that i have to send month forces that that was bank. and on the other hand, the invitation that uh uh, was really good deliver to a certain monthly doesn't those bank to attend the ceremony of the integration of

the drum. it kind of message of the support that they will get. and so if we go back a few days, few months, even 24 hours before the notation in janine, we can see that the some is the only need does. some of the motto still in the united states may be sitting monthly bills. of course, they said that we have been calling for the closure and that was the bank and the closure is happening now. and them a little bit ition in the north of virginia, virginia. and that was what it was before, the beginning of this, of the nation. so it seems that they are enjoying the effect that trump is the president now, and the subordinate how to continue getting from those surrounding uh, president trump location just to pick up and something you said there. the expansion of is really settlements in the west bank. could that have been

a bargaining chip in exchange for a cease fire in gaza? is it, is that looking more likely? no. with then i did the states. i think they got this from, from the previously, we go to his plan, what is called the plan up. so the same chevy or on his plan. it was talking about not only expansion, but also annexation of the motive and 40 percent of the stan through the doors in the jump then uh it valley area. uh so it's very possible we, we know that a lot of extreme right activists have been in washington where i can go in this learning period. they have been talking to the, from the new administration, uh, employees or locations. and i, and a lot of them are taking the support of the supply to spend the 16 months in the bank as a religious belief, as a christian. so you miss it believe,

but it's like what the us and so the to the you and it said, i think you're still to be on. we had to pay out a few minutes ago. so it could be possible. everything is supposed to be. it also could be the price that uh, it's a little smoke which got from big gym and nothing you know, who injected of not to quit from the government. stuff that this is way up and because everything is supposed to have been a bunch of them. these things are not exposed, it's, can i just turn attention over to dallas? uh, how secure do you think the situation is there as it stands? because concerns are mounting that israel may not be taking the terms of the ceasefire seriously and could be planning or at least some members of the, the cabinet planning to restart the war. if they come in gallons, a be for phase to be agreement comes into effect. if if the,

if you have been listening to bits a little smoke that you asked me to, can go look about that good commitments. he got from benjamin netanyahu. concerning that and to war or to play. i think after the 42, he has been saying this look and this think these statements has not have not being denied why they've been doing that. danielle nathaniel, who used to insist that after that goes to stage, they may go back to lighting it on this. it does not the is not committed to the f as to they've been so and then negotiations that will happen. but a lot of i know this thing is that it will believe that need any help or if you decided to go through this now he is within a new database concerning a lot of the small uh, border crossing and saying that is what i was going through and everything there and the listing and presents would be kind of simplistic just for both of them on the best thoughts of those who will across the fi at. but uh, and is there

a way to control who can boil and who can, who can come in and they can leave. and i think this thing was denied by the me, the, the so in the tiny a whole as we used to see him during the last 16 months. he has been trying to, uh uh, but event in these, these play out or any uh, plans to in the lower and goes up either by his, his statements or by his minister statements or by the action and his actions on the ground or his autumn actions and the problem, and it seems that he is trying to push him out of school in the thing that could make him claim that how mass or the police damian's i broke the the old though that a lot of is what i on the list with my daily following up to them, they believe that thomas wants to apply for the 3 stages of this supply up.

or this is the but need to know is very much worried. that of the things we had a quick has a cabinet the at the i think it's a chance for them. it's a little a small switch to practice motor black mailing to anything. you know? because now the whole government coalition depends on the presence of smoke through which that gives him strong position to piercing it anyhow and wrong with him on the political british of hate. he uses and has the events. of course, a lot of issues raised there. always good to see you to talk to a journalist, an expert on is really us relations mr. call doing bar good. he lives from ramallah . the. the only way to solve the ukraine conflicts is to address it's root cause is the opposite. according to russia's top diplomats sugar level. so also said any piece agreements must be legally binding a limit and that's a good expected. we have brief colleagues on the latest developments around

ukrainian regulation and emphasized on david and commitment to achieving the goals of the special military operation and resolving this crisis by eliminating its root causes to the understanding that without this it will be impossible to achieve an end the call think is growing, including by the way, in europe and the united states. we specialize in for size that we can only talk about the reliable, legally binding agreements is, must include a mechanism to make it impossible to violate them in order to finish most. the rushes main conditions of a recognition of its sovereignty over the countries, new regions, the normal line status of new crane, and know far as know the 3 presence on new clean insulin on witness the death of us for a lot of years, the landscape said there's no way his country will accept any territorial compromise will also calling for hundreds of thousands of foreign troops to be deployed in ukraine to prevent any further conflict of a cease fire is re i'm supporting the d o s continues like it,

part of the security guarantees because if they have 1000000.5 all me and if we will have less, 2 times, it means that we need to continue jose with a very strong number of soldiers, $200000.00 and it's a minimum it's a minimum, that's otherwise it's nothing. otherwise it's something you know, like somebody like we had o s c e, and nobody knew what, what, where they can help you or just, they had just, they had the offices and that's all well ahead of, they'd be in that base of or off institute alexandra markovich joins is live for further discussion. alexander, great to have you on today. most school was position is no western troops and ukraine has a condition for peace. zalinski wants an entire european army to be deployed to his

country. how will any agreement be possible with such a difference? bounces? well, the difference that's with such differing spencer's any kind of piece won't be possible at all. because of course, when the one ends, we have russia addressing its fear about the west marching even further east. and now we've been stationing un nato troops, us so that i ask, is the, do you mind being um, a dresser spotters? which is to why the reason why russia has actually fought this war and on the other end. so of course, we have a the craze of excited things just where is now the bonding. um may 2 troops basically um, fighting for ukraine, which is of course, um, um, even though it's possible by european standards because if you're talking about 200 thousands and see even though wished for 800000 um european soldiers so there

wouldn't be left any european army anymore, outside of your trade. so what he's basically demanding is the full mobilization of europe for ukraine. and in order to now wage this war, instead of your brand new nami, the u. s. president is not pressuring russia to end the conflict, but ukraine is unwilling to make any concessions despite being on the retreats on the battlefield. do you believe that trump will make zalinski see the fox on the ground on except a police, some of the russian conditions? how does this play out? well, if we look at the america 1st piece plan um presented by us general kalak, i'm of course us. so now adopting a carrot and stick approach, i'm not only in front of russia but also um in front of ts. and what we could um read from the latest statements of donald trump is that you somewhat

serious about um, stopping um, photo aids for ukraine. of course, this also depends on if russia is actually willing to make this huge compromise regarding ukraine. and as far as i can see, the treasure develop mer, this ideas of these um, put forth by donald trump and by us, general telecom won't results it to be. so maybe this will be actually the 1st defeat of strong trump in his presidency. if he's not able to consider the food in your brain, you will have to um, even double down and ukraine adds, this couldn't be, of course, you wherever you unfortunate them for the united states and all those americans striving for peace. just what we heard there from circular, rough steering a p should come with a mechanism that ensures the agreements won't be violated. what do you think alex

under those mechanisms cut entails, given that we've seen western states and rolled back on past agreements with russia? well this is the, um, the question if we look at the minutes one admins, 2 agreements and they actually should have 3 different limits of bots out this implementation never took place. so yeah, when it comes to future agreements, i think the best way of implementing them would be actually a total of west them withdrawal um from your crime. and those measures um rushed to announce about the utilization of your train in terms of um, military alliances on the one end. and of course, on the other hand, on the other hand, um the, the last if occasion of your brain uh which would leave um its purging off um fastest then um alternation loose elements sponsored by the west. so if the west is actually willing to do that, that's just

a big question. as far as i can assume the situation in your brain, i think unfortunately that this conflict will only be finished at the battlefield and bought some width and negotiate a piece of his price. all right, the views all that the head of the subordinate institute think talk live from vienna, alexander mark, if it's alexander all, was a pleasure. terrorism is rump and on the african continent and undermining any collective action. that's the grin appraisal given by the rwandan foreign affairs minister of the un security council meeting. in 2024 alone the african union counterterrorism center base. the no just recorded over 3400 of talks. this talks resulted in over the 10900 feet tall. it is

indeed a continent is fixing it dumb and challenge. we have reached a tipping point. we must act together in response. you have to put that into context. terror attacks on the content and have increased 400 percent in the past decade. according to the old jewelry and foreign minister with the debt to a rising by close to 250 percent as well, rushes and buster to be and leave the blame for that largely done to what he called the legal actions by the way. squarely expensive as little african countries faced an accelerated expansion of international terrorism after the western military, aggression against libya in 2011 globe. then under the pretext of the concept of responsibility to protect, they destroyed the libyan statehood. an economy. these tragic events have created a breeding ground for strengthening.
