the nice, the problem also i noticed was that some of the, [000:00:00;00] the signature, st question presidents put an end to trump professionally discuss. and then the crank complex to the surprise and into an uproar from c as a reaction. moscow's top diplomat finds incredible. politics is about sitting down to tool and find common grounds. i am very sad that the reaction of the west shows that there are practically no such people left the the tox catch washington's european allies off guard as well with yeah, it's dawn, you bankers, now reeling to be included in the decision making process. and you crane sanctions

its own, the former president killed her power shall go calling white house calls from vladimir zalinski to finally hold elections. the i'm rachel ruble live in the russian capital. this is our t international for the world. is one step closer to piece after the 1st official phone call between the us and russian presidents in years, donald trump and the kremlin both shared an update reaction pointing to a positive attitude that should help get the ukraine and conflict ended. a push limit is level 2 of the heads of states agreed yesterday during a telephone conversation that they themselves would continue to contact and are looking through a separate meeting. we also agreed that instructions would be given immediately to the relevant aids so that they can start the necessary work. now, of course, the work will be started quickly. it will be necessary to wait for certain

developments. it will be possible to talk about where when and so on, was an important conversation, considering the situation of the last several years when there has been no high level contact between moscow and washington. of course, that lack of contact did not contribute at all to the search for any supplement options. the previous us administration held the view that everything should be done to ensure that the work continues as far as we understand the current administration. and here's to the view that everything must be done to stop the war and for peace to prevail. where much more impressed with the position of the current administration. and we're open to dialogue. the experience of the misc agreement speaks volumes, and of course, we will always take this experience into the account in all future steps. searches donald quarter is here with me in the studio now with more details done. what's the latest? well, why donors, lensky is actually given his 1st $0.02 about these proposed negotiations between vladimir putin and donald trump. and of course,

a lot of his talk was focused on asking the west for more money. but he also made a lot of strong statement saying that ukraine isn't going to accept any sort of peace negotiations that are conducted without key of participation. and he also said that americans are pretty much guaranteed to die in an upcoming fantastical russian attack on europe. that would you give us the any bilateral talks about ukraine? i'm not talking about other topics, any bilateral talks about ukraine without us. we will not accept it. as i said yesterday, when we talked with the minister and i told him that, you know, what are your american brigades, which are they nato troops, they are located in europe. and if there is the invasion, it will be fast. so your military will fight. i told him that they have to save the lives of the people because there are around, i don't know. there are 100000 americans in europe. they're going to fight and not everyone will survive. well, quite the statement from zalinski there. it doesn't seem like he and from c i, i at all, do they? well,

clearly it looks like kids really worried that the us is going to sideline ukraine from any sort of peace negotiations in the future. but so once the saying that key is not going to accept any sort of negotiations between the us and russia, that's probably in the sky thinking especially can considering who actually pays the bills in ukraine. right. it's the united states and truck was even asked if she was going to be considered to be on equal footing in any sort of future negotiations between the us and russia. and all trump said was essentially he needs them to make peace. um it's an interesting question. i think they have to make peace that people have been killed and i think they have to make peace. i showed that was not a good way to go into and i think they have to make peace. that's what i take on top of that. trump and his defense secretary have already publicly said that nato membership for ukraine is completely off the table. and thinking that anyone's

going to return key up to its pre 2014 borders is completely unrealistic. and these are statements that are incomplete contradiction to the main war goals. the cube is actually put forward. the secretary of defense is excellent. pete made a statement today saying that he thinks is unlikely or impractical. i think probably that's true. i think long before president button, as i said, there's no way that allow that this has been going on for many, many years. and they've been saying that for a long time that you crank and not go into nato. the 1010 i'm and i'm ok with that i just want the word whether they are there or not. but it certainly would seem to be that most people have said that that is something that's not gonna work. well, i, i think pete said today that that's unlikely, right? we must start by recognizing that returning to ukraine's pre 2014 borders is an

unrealistic objective chasing this, illusionary goal will only prolong the war and cause more suffering. it certainly would seem to be unlikely. they took a lot of land and they fought for that land and they lost a lot of uh they lost a lot of soldiers, but it would just seem to be and i'm not, i'm not making an opinion on it, but i read a lot on it. and a lot of people think that that's unlikely. so what are we looking at here as far as a potential future deal? what could that look like? well, it's starting to look like something that russia can finally actually work with after years of the united states, essentially showing little to no interest. and after having actual negotiations based on realistic conditions and us defense, secretary was even asked if this new sort of radical u. s foreign policy change could be considered a betrayal to ukraine at a press conference during his meetings with nato defense ministers. and he said,

not at all the well, that's your language. not mine, certainly not a betrayal. but as i said to our allies yesterday, we recognize the incredible commitment that has been made over many years. and no country as the president trump has pointed out, has made a larger commitment to the ukrainian mission than the united states of america. north of $300000000000.00. so the united states has invested in stabilizing those front lines. after the aggression of russia, there is no betrayal there. there is a recognition that the whole world in the united states is invested and interested in peace, a negotiated piece. so clearly what we're witnessing here is a huge paradigm shift. it's a paradigm shift towards piece and it's a paradigm shift that you have is obviously not very happy about right. are two's donald quarter. don,

thank you so much goes top diplomat has taken shots of the west is what he describes as a normal normal phone call between the russian and us. presidents has caused an upper or among ukraine's allies for ministers circling over. i've added that his colleagues in europe seem to have forgotten how diplomacy works. i mean, yeah, but i just thought that i was able to touch the i was struck by the fact that the whole world is now when it kind of stupid. they regard the phone conversation and the result of that phone conversation as something out of the ordinary. so this is wanting to abide in administration led by the president. the european satellites have brought themselves to and they have discarded diplomacy as a method of communicating with the outside. well, judging by the surprise, the stupid that the phone call between trump and polluted cause, the west is taking everything that's going on in ukraine. what zalinski is nazi regime is doing as a given that this is exactly how you should communicate with russia. that is

probably why many in the west starting with the leaders of the european union, was stunned when a normal elementary conversation between 2 well mounted polite people took place. people who do not take know the differences and the many of them, but who are very aware that politics is about sitting down to tool can find common ground. i am very sad that the reaction of the west shows that there are practically no such people left that and went to well minded people demonstrate how politics must be done. i hope it will cyber up those who have forgotten and make them re read the history and political science textbooks. a former virginia state republican senator richard black shared his reaction to the latest diplomatic developments with us. and it started with the secretary defense pay tech. so who laid out some parameters for what the peace deal would be? and basically it says, no. nato membership for ukraine,

unrealistic to talk about rolling back to 2014 borders. know us peacekeepers, no article or 5 page paper. or keep in mind if, if your crime were to become a member of nato, it would be in a position to trigger a global war, a nuclear con, con flag. keep in mind, this is really interesting. the president trump spoke for 90 minutes with president food. and when, when he announced what had happened was the discussion was about. he said we'd agreed to work very closely together. we're going to visit both parties, nations. and we're gonna start peace negotiations immediately. what is so tell right, is that he said we will begin by calling president landscape to inform

them of the com. so you can see, you have 2 great powers, the us and russia. how many together? talking about the settlement of the war. and you have, you have the landscape viewed as a minor choir mine, he's never gotten along very well with was president trump, trump didn't, didn't have any sort of, of positive interaction with the landscape. this is a combination of, of this effort to, or the, the end of the effort to diplomatically isolate russia and president pose. described as a direct and warm conversation between the russian and american leaders. the call caught european officials completely off guard. washington's u allies have issued a joint declaration demanding a seat at the negotiating table,

but not all european leaders are on the same page. this declaration is a sad testament of bad brazilian leadership, while president trump and president putin negotiate on peace, e u officials issue worthless statements. you can't request a seat at the negotiating table. you have to earn it through strength, good leadership and smart diplomacy. the position of brussels to support killing as long as it takes is morally and politically unacceptable. are contributor. rachel marsden joins me now to discuss this. rachel, what has the european reaction, ben to the pit and trumpet breakthrough and please look or bomb. there is talking about the statement put out by several european for ministers assisting the ukraine, and that you must be at the table for any peace talks. yeah, they're at the table. all right, the key, the table along with you crane. and while they're busy playing with things like balloon animals and big words, like how they're going to quote, enhanced their support for ukraine,

which usually means more people dying to successfully be russia on the battlefield . like they're running some kind of fantasy gaming league. it turns out that russia and the us, so trump and pretend we're actually having a personal conversation, as trump said yesterday, announcing the start of immediate negotiations for peace. and now the e. u is acting like it's just been dumped by uncle sam who's committing the adding insult of hanging around with its acts. sure, if there is agreements made behind our backs it, we simply not for it because you need for any kind of deal, any kind of agreement. you need your peons to implement this the you need the ukrainians to implement this stage. yeah, you can't break up with me, you need me. that sounds not crazy at all. you even have the german defense minister yelling from the kid he table over to the adult table trying to tell trump and food and how they should be conducting negotiations. now the dollars using this

is obviously, it's unfortunate, and i say this truthfully, the trumpet ministration had already made public admissions to prove them. before negotiations. i've even, but gone on from my point of view, it would have been better to talk about ukraine's possible nato membership or the countries lots of territory only at the negotiating table and not take it off the table beforehand. yeah, every one is really keen to hear about advice for peace and peace making from folks who strategies so far as results in perpetual war. that's fairly a step above you. on the toddler, the one who was picking his nose was standing beside his dad and trump in the oval office, the other day offering trump and hooting. his take on negotiated peace in ukraine. sounds like your team leaders are currently experiencing all 5 states of grief at once. well, frantically refreshing your inboxes to see if maybe the u. s. or russia have noticed their total meltdowns and maybe slid into their gm's and not just taking it as

a confirmation that ghosting them entirely was maybe the best way to handle the situation when they're already sounding like they're on the verge of throwing every dish. and the cupboard straight across the room. all we need is peace, a just peace ukraine. europe in the united states should work on this together. together today might go down in history as a dark day for europe. it now depends on your opinion leaders to finally recognize that we must take our fate into our own hands right now. ukrainian agency and any piece talks is crucially important in order to have successful peace steal. russian needs to be weakened on the battlefield, rushes, politics, economics, religion, media, private sector. it is all oriented towards war. thus russia has to be forced to peace. so europe administers and delegations had been meeting here in paris earlier this week for what they thought wasn't a very important strategy session. only to realize that they were basically just holding the equivalent of

a giant circle jerk. corporate team building exercise here is ukraine's foreign minister. so you are 60 roll, you insured in just and comprehensive, one less than fif for ukraine, ukraine, security, and security and the reasonable. all right, so that's the kind of thing that we're hearing a lot of here in paris. but while they were all busy making all kinds of grand proclamations like that, like they were all jockeying for rules, they could play in any event, will peace negotiations casting. it turns out the trump and fruits and we're already finished with that casting. and the dresser hurdles, and we're about to just bring up the curtain altogether on the big show. and um it was a 2 man. sho, not been on sambal slapstick comedy featuring the you big top circus. troop

european diplomats are now telling the press and they figure they'll be expected to foot the bill for ukraine's reconstruction and send troops to enforce a deal that they had 0 say in like getting half of the mass of dinner check for a meal. you didn't even get to touch built says that europe's role is basically just to shut up and accept the result of negotiations like they've been kicked right. a is a good shot, me. so i even had a chance to log on and well, they still have to deal with the outcome of that meeting. basically, at this point, trump sees europe as an atm fruits in c 0 as background noise. and they're already picking out the tables settings for their piece talks while europe is left standing outside that v. i p room begging the bouncer to check the list again while they stand there, trying to deal with ukraine's toddler tantrum are to contribute to rachel mars. then rachel, thank you us. all right,

we can turn now to the head of bowers universities, government, and international relations department. osman, are you on to as the is good to have you on the program with us. this phone call between now and trump was the 1st example of direct contact between the leaders of russia and the us in here is what does this all mean for global security in your opinion? well, thank you for having 1st. oh, this is a very surprising up that there is a rising method because drums already mentioned in before that they want to watch the how obviously we'll continue to negotiation with uh with them and in the 1st. um, also it last. yeah. a president within the past where it was really shouldn't be a president tom. so the scenario is that it does not live. so again, you know, it's, it's finding you play the global vision with ease. and i think this is good for everyone, not every category or perhaps not, you'll be on this, but for everybody, it's actually

a good thing that is losing those off escalation on the problem. probably the already has been going for the last 3 years. yeah. so this phone call comes just as 3 weeks after trump was inaugurated as president and united states. so here we are already um, hopefully on the path to peace. after 3 years of this conflict, what would you say is the main difference between trump's approach versus the bided administration's approach to ukraine? well, tom wants to focus on the domestic issue a, him thinks that, well, it's only going to, you know, owe using a lot of us resources so that he wants to know the industry that a lot of brought up by the end provided this that's it went to a system, but your grand drought has no relatives to continue on that scale. it was in a form, it gives you a bit of settlement statement as from and then um, most of the installation is built into boxes. and of course, the already mentioned the rest of the month though,

unlike by that we spent the month total independence replace drum has questions on that, but i think it's nice and suggested that you could have been done. please should think that those funds b b and already, you know, besides buying these uh expense, minnesota. so most probably looking to get them very good. go central. uh uh, but that's what goes into russia. so. busy us we'll deem i've seen mr. booth and we'll get lucky. watch is version they would use no, not the membership and having those where to go already. oh, by it or any kind of getting a crash already taken from european nations, are demanding that brussels and t of must be part of these upcoming negotiations. whenever they take place, what role would you expect them to play? i i don't d 0 be

a mistake on these one. i mean like probably not really listen to the, i mean, all right here. uh uh, basically tom wants to focus on china. i mean at the, at this time, oh, from as already have that border with mexico, canada. it wasn't. the greenland was still a big fan of my so many things going on on the 1st few days of peace in the office . so i think your benefit was not, will be side like on this piece about it. and, you know, actually washington, either washington nor kremlin are saying that this phone call was a negotiation on crane. of course, this was just the 1st, the initial contact between the 2 presidents. so why do you think we're seeing this uproar in the west over a trump input and speaking i'm saying um, because they, they felt like being neglected, being, being left behind like, already have to go, spend are going to sit there. be that. yeah. what would they would've alongside

light and would the, the keeps they, will they go ahead and pay this is the big though. uh, talking us and wash. yeah. and that's the new york and it's not going to that. so when he called a, someone got to the up and i didn't should be something so i don't think you could have been has any force. obviously the only been to depend upon us and i think us do not want to like i thought i already said they, they stop the tire of, you know, been union or man. so pretty 90 us security agents so far. what we're seeing reports in western media that chinese, a china or other has them offered to host potential meetings between vladimir putin and donald trump. you talked about how trump wants to focus on china, so it wouldn't exactly be neutral ground for him. what, what exactly do you think they jane could bring to the table in terms of negotiations? and i think president will just really needs to begin. so at least what i do,

i think us a present time to try to break the already good bond between china is russia. china has been there during the difficulty of russia. it's been to come to life like china by russia. gas and china has been helping russia and i don't think was the person that would be able to get that you can so i think uh instead of this uh, based off that bill of getting benefits for us. yeah. i think for us. yeah, since we're giving you a good basically, we will not forget what time that has to be. we've been helping us for the last 23 years or be awesome. it's always been on the sides. i've always been think they were all for us. yeah. and everything us will be one time of the big bottles use issue because they don't want that. they sign up get the spotlights. so yeah, but i think brushing is very closely as long as, as long as there will be wonderful living dining room. thank these devices going to

side by the while china has been very helpful to russia for so far. okay, we're gonna leave it there. head of brokerage, the universities government and international relations department, assman already on to as ease. thank you. thank you for having a 20 it pedestrians, including children, have reportedly been injured in a car ramming incident on the streets of munich as the city prepares to host a major german security conference set to begin on friday. the attack occurred during the verity trade union strike over an ongoing wage dispute. law enforcement are on the scene and say the driver has been secure. the driver is reported to be a 24 year old after young man. security conference is where the us vice president a band since a lot of my zalinski are expected to attend football officials time there is no connection between the incidents and the upcoming meeting. the we had no choice. of course, we will continue with a correspondingly strong police presence everywhere. now,

with regard to the security conference and keep the situation under control, we do not know at the moment and do not assume that there is any connection with the security conference. what the motivation of this asking perpetrator of course, still needs to be explored in more detail on earlier we spoke with a economist, i can hammer who said the dangers the west is currently facing is a direct result of the existing e u and us policies. now the world sees how catastrophic, the security situation in germany became under this i'm but another, the socialist regime in germany that was supported by the christian democrats and liberals that, uh, made this catastrophic immigration uh, situation that we have. uh and that though we are having a um security situation that is not acceptable anymore. i think this is primary for germany, but for the entire western world,

the brakes countries and the way. busy that is supported by russia doesn't have these problems because they didn't, they didn't join this idiocy of exchanging population. it's all for this context of migration and all these concepts that have been developed by a small pretty evil group within the west, on the so called deep state. but, and this, this policy is, is boss. this policy is obvious, not in the interest of the people, and this is why is especially in those countries where these policies have been implemented mostly well change dramatically. kids have has slapped the countries former president pewter par shank, go on to a number of major ukranian. businessman with personal sanctions, lot of our zaleski has accused them of destroying the countries and national

security of those on the list are banned from leaving the country. and their assets have been frozen or cycle has called the treason allegations. he's facing a probably cation, the former president lady, praying for 5 years following the western back that might on 2, in 2014. this party is now closely trailing zalinski in recent opinion. polls as far as single, openly criticize us, his successor, the sanctions were impose shortly after the white house urged kids to hold elections. no, i don't think so as long as he's there, but yeah, at some point you're gonna have to have elections to. you're gonna have to have elections. meanwhile, the ukrainian parliament has descended into chaos portion and goes party members are blocking colleagues from addressing the body and m. p. 's from the european solidarity party brought posters reading, know to political repression. the former ukrainian, former ukrainian diplomat, andre teller. jenko says, portion go, has fallen in to his own trap. as i say 1st,

say the 1st of all better since it was only the dictatorship which she made any rain after the 2 and saw the 40 for going against a sort of opponents while he has installed the top load of opponents to a slide about people getting science and the need friday night for us to go sanctioned by the last year we're z and he, he was fine about all of this stuff for years and years. and that was flying into the tv and into the section. that's one thing that the guy was is on track, my car, my decision. but at the same time, i believe this is all a little for k. from our side of point of view, they're trying to say it was going to get the radios raised by just because people who pray for somebody who is be by the receipt. so this might be a problem. it's okay to get fortunately because where you're back on track with as easy this right now. as always, some reason i was trying tell me some,

what is happening on the ground right at all. you'll have to basically go under the what are the 12th and russia is gonna be on the me and basically the run for his life because he has no other choice. he will not, i will put political future a great the for jeffrey as to what he has done regarding on the, the go stations with the united states and russia. the situation crane will change dramatically. and you credit will go into the sphere. russia sat together and these elections that are going to happen the race day will not make any difference. it just, there's going to be a more more legit government. all right, from all of the stories we're covering here on our to international. be sure to visit our website,

r t dot com. bye for now. the i was suggesting re bomb bell. great. the, what's the other 2 person beverly business, they're going to put it there. is but who's doing this alone, if you get those care of you on the market, especially if not to snag oakwood vidas of joshua, he's actually not getting up at the total cost of our inventory cost as detroit post on the brother c t. but they're all going to panic. click let me know what that is. not because of other for the past. 4 things. i don't see, i'll send it to me in on april the 23rd 1999, they tow carried out a devastating strike on belgrade. so it'd be on television station
