the, the, her headline stories this hour, 180 turn from love, the mirror zalinski who's saying he's, he'll be, with a lot of her uprooted, but not one other russian for peace negotiations about this by the ukrainian law. he brought in for a bidding cox with russia as president both and what i worry about is the threat to, from within the retreat of europe, from some of its most fundamental values value shared with the united states of america. and the men's singles words by new us vice president j. d bounce up in munich. security conference says european officials are chest i used to their faces for targeting free speech counseling. elections. delegates opt out

major security for them. we're still digesting this week for lend the phone conversation between the american and russian leaders leaving the european elite scrambling to be included in peace, thoughts on ukraine. if you got at least the next 4 years cannot only change the relationship between the us and other countries, but also the relationship between all countries. let's not be dear caught in the headlight of mine. so the, this is our team to national. my name's unit illegal in 30 minutes of using the use of starts to. lot of years, lensky has a nice teeth preferred to meet with vladimir putin for talks, but only after he comes to an agreement with his main sponsors. the statement came on the sidelines of the munich security conference. it will, this is just that i will only be seeing one russians, and that is putting the only after you have prepared a common plan with try clue to in the war. the only in this case room is under

these conditions on those. but there will be no other platforms with compromises in the took of was, it is do you seems to be contradicting himself every time he opens his mouth. all that depends on the car and scribbling his hand with me to kansas for from any kind of reality. as we all heard, phyllis key just said that you will only speak with foods in this same guy. it should and in, sorry degree early are making it illegal, just be hard. negotiate with the russian presidents, other paragraphs of that degree very from we approval of the effects of the address, the nasal requirements for a multi level security system based on multi lateral and bilateral agreements, strengthening of ukraine's defense capability by increasing the supply of minutes. really technical assistance and of course recommendations, affections, i guess flushed out this is what positive you said about negotiating with foods in earlier. it was our state that is always offered russia to agreed to co exist on

equal, honest, decent, and fair terms. obviously this is impossible with this russian president. he doesn't know what dignity and honesty are. therefore, we are ready for dialogue with russia, but with another russian president. in while moscow has always been open to talks with ukraine about a peaceful settlements, but well considering all the realities on the ground after the start of this special military operation. at this point, however, zalinski is no longer of any interest to russia because, well, his presidential term ends its last year. the former act are observed tower and ukraine. and if he cancelled presidential elections in the country and to subsequently in the hands of democracy in ukraine was gone, let him air boots in knows that any talk with the lensky or at this point. absolutely. if utah distributed good, most of us can, you can negotiate with anyone. but so let's leave the village in the midst of it. he has no writer assigned anything this,

but if he wants to take part in the negotiations, i will send people who will conduct these negotiations. the issue is the final signing of the documents. this is a very serious issue that should guarantee security for ukraine and russia with a serious long term it into a store called perspective. and there can't be a single slip. everything should be polished to use the savings. but if there is a desire to negotiate and find compromise solutions, let anyone negotiate there. so naturally we will strive to achieve what suits us, which corresponds to our interest we use in terms of assigning documents. everything should be done in such a way that lawyers confirm to us the legitimacy of those people who will be authorized by the creating state to sign in these agreements. we will soon be a part offered later montrose has been the go to law carrot on the stick if you will, for the crating and people from zaleski and the officials off by his regime. now those words were publicly echoed not only by major leadership leadership but the bytes by biden's administration, as well. uh, we will be in need, so we will be

a part of a european union. now, such promises were fed to view crazy and people on a daily basis because it ask you has now changed his tune, my 1st phone call with the president biden. and my 1st question will we be made to, is that no, no, and i said we will be wary, honest. united states that they never saw us in nato. they just spoke about it on the level of leader of the country and the level of president. never eyesore this, but it doesn't mean that we can't change the spots we really have drunk. our mean we can really make from getting natal everywhere you. we don't have nato real as nature. we will make nature in ukraine class or donald trump scene took over the white house and made the leadership have also changed their tea and,

and are acting like ukraine were never really promised anything. only 8 months ago, you had a service in washington, dc is 32 allies, agreed, and i know you know these words, but i'll read them to you. we will continue to support ukraine or irreversible cost to cool euro. atlantic integration, including nathan membership. does nato still stand by those words were in those as line, so it says that it to be part of a peace deal. now there's never been before and not even in that portion some of statements. there's been a pc. what would be done on your brain? that's in that piece, or to be natal, things felt there's not many things that part of, of these deals should be made. so, but this is never been promised to your brain. now it's hard to pinpoint sports exactly need so and ukraine will come up with next so far has been a story full of contradictions bordering on blayton,

lies and manipulation. meanwhile, zaleski continues to demand more money, more weapons, and even threatens american soldiers. with this on the battlefield against the russian army as well. one of the key conditions, the us all the line for ukraine is paying buckets astronomical debts by allowing access to the countries where earth minerals in munich, lot of years lensky fund, a creative way to justify washington st. amounts, the millions, those stages we met with our american colleagues. we have had a lot of meetings and i am very happy about it. and we had a good conversation with president from you, and we received an offer to invest and ukraine's critical minerals that was discussed extensively. and i said that we need to protect your brain and our resources, if we're speaking pragmatically, and not just about the security of your own as well. though i believe that the security of europe is 1st and foremost, when we talk about protecting our resources it keeps keeps so that they don't get caught in the hands of an occupying russia and their allies,

that it is necessary to protect all materials in such a way to non heidi to, to are putting your and this guy to the teeth. yeah. you give them a bunch of things. not a do of 6 things. you give them a tack, comes you give them tanks because they, they will fight. remind may not, didn't they do great. okay. just doesn't work out well. so let's arm this guy. let's do the minerals agreement. so we'll have our american business interest. food doesn't understand what's going on. if we sign dismentos or agreement, food and screwed calls, trump will defend the deal while we're talking about is the ones that do with about the batteries with you, the ones that do the electric cars. so all of that is of great interest. these rare earth minerals, but 22 percent of those rare minerals are now part of russian territory from russian advancement. so what does that mean? and that's what donald trump, you know, being a business man. he wants those where as his minerals, but does he want to do that at the expense of losing his friendship?

that's trying to percolate again with russia. because russia controls 22 percent of that. um and then once he knows that, so he's trying to put in a bar, you know, any kind of negotiating you know, leverage that he can because whenever you're trying to do piece right, you want leverage and zalinski doesn't have much. i think that's it. they definitely don't have any cash to give the us, right. i keep hearing it increasingly, it might be a valid question being raised at flooding. there's a lensky thing. why aren't you more actively pursuing peace? but as you say, when you look into the details of it and the money that's been coming in, so your credit is shutting off that, you know, that's ukraine is the hold it to us. let's say it directly. so if that stops on europe is not willing to do this. he knows he's in a hole here. he's no longer of any use to europe or the us as he and he's committed

crimes and some more crimes. so if, if you know, is the landscape probably trying to figure out an exit route, among other things, right. um, i don't really see him running for president again. i think he wouldn't be elected . obviously there's a ton of people he's, i mean he's basically sacrificed a generation of men for what to give rare earth minerals to the us to give 22 percent of the land to, to russia. yeah, he's in a very bad position. par rate, the e u is undermining its own democratic values. that's the blogs admission us vice president. judy balance kicked off with us in munich, a security conference, as the new trump team informed brussels. that means business when it comes to ending the spring company. the threat that i worry the most about visa, the europe, is not russia. it's not china, it's not any other external actor. and what i worry about is the threat from within

the retreats of europe, from some of its most fundamental values value shared with the united states of america. i was struck that of a former european commissioner went on television recently and sounded delighted that the romanian government had just an old and entire election. he warned that if things don't go to plan, the very same thing could happen in germany too. now these cavaliers statements are shocking to american ears may be valentine's day, but there is certainly no love in hearing me nick at the security conference. and that says, you heard that fiery speech in the us vice president j. d font criticizing. we were in many respects saying that because it was reeling back from its own fundamental values and basically saying that there is any sheriff in town. that's donald trump and things are going to go a very different way to how these, you know,

for 18 years. but the last full use, his speech was so critical that members viewed it, she listened, didn't know whether they should even close at the end. it was calling devon for good moments. and we've already been getting reaction from europe. elite is, who was this roy king as particularly against the things that we've been hearing from, from between instruction regarding ukraine and not speakers just in the last few days. a donald trump saying that he spoke directly with vladimir putin of russia. and he said, russia great country, we want to be friends with them. again. he then spoke to a lot to me for landscape and laid out how things are possibly going to turn on and ukraine and not is not music to the ease of many people here. in europe, including the gym and the president who says the you must not be paralyzed for the slurry of a night since it's coming out from the other side of the atlantic. but i'm on the 2 ish, the ladies and gentlemen. of course, in that case,

we are not just talking about the growth of european proves also about the reduction of american troops, the modem. i talked about this with the vice president advanced this morning and i told him that whenever you were planning to discuss it with us, the next 4 years cannot only change the relationship between the us and other countries. but also the relationship between all countries will the international community maybe take all of the damage? so my answer is very simple, but i think it's right. that's up to us. we are subjects, not objects of the international orders. we must not let the flood of announcements paralyze us. we must not freeze out of fear or as they say in english, these up let's not be deer caught in the headlights from the ones. well, he's not the only person who's unhappy just taken listen to this, a hail ukraine would we can euro, but it was also re, comes the united states edwards intensify or challenges in the, in the pacific and switching all shared interest. well, that's one view. well,

we've also seen the writing here. we mean the key may have come cap in hand, but it looks like i had of his meeting with j. d phone through us twice. president things on going exactly how he wanted to know. she has heard was from the screen saying the last 3 days, what we've heard from the us secretary of defense, pete, to have we're assess saying that basically you create needs to look at the reality on the grounds. and essentially, there will be no going back to the board is free at 2014, and also the ukraine should be looking to be a member of nato in the future of load them. is the lensky rejecting all of that, but looking incredibly tired, incredibly dejected at the press conference she gave a well, we also been hearing from the german chancellor, all of shows also talking about the concessions he has the by what's happening in

ukraine and whether essentially america is going to try and uh, and the, the war with negotiations directly with russia. sort of basically pushing not just ukraine, but the europeans, the sidelines in may. what they see to the table. they say hi to him. listen, do we need a reform of the debt break in order to invest in our security and defense? secondly, the bonus tag should make a decision as soon as possible, according to which the war and ukraine and its serious consequences for the security of germany and europe are to be classified as an emergency. well, an important point to, because we had heard from donald trump that they was going to be a very high profile meeting here at the munich security conference between the usa, between russia and potentially ukraine. you know, ukraine said it was gonna turn up at the table, but it also seems that russia hasn't been invited. we've been hearing from the foreign ministry spokesperson, who says, in fact, brush awesome and invited since 2022 because that was

a political decision taken just until the most is any tool of going to start taking place at ease. terry meaning or presidential candidate from the patriots party of the romanian people run constance and ask to dar t, he views mister bounce his speech as marking a fundamental shift in u. s. foreign policy. and i think that the days page of the american vice president will go down in history crime because in a few sentences not only agreed besides the phenomenon of the elections remain. yeah, extremely harshly, but also exposed and worried, the bureaucrats from the brass, those the destroyers of the european union. and also the agent did major review from, uh, uh, bill, correct. and uh, overall this beach makes it clear that the american agendized change ends are used

as a fueling the conflict in ukraine. the problem, i think solutions are required is immense. america, resources, resources and it should be invested in a sort of being in debt and other problems that are out there, then extend the confidence. so something is very fine because they were not the big thing such the speech. so a few hours later, the german minister of defense means their board is the story is, reacted to j. d. vast criticism of europe by saying that what it's not the except the side, the speech, the american, the vice president made state ones that shuts down the group that, that controversy in romania and hit the close to the global east of the e. u. in the south but of the head j d advantage reminded us that the former european commissioner,

mr. terry but i thought recently said on d z n seem to vary the light did that the romanian government, the cast of the elections. and he warned that the same thing could happen in general. when he was mentioned, the us vice president is heading washington's delegation up think and summits. and while there, he held a meeting with the f. these candidate for jumpstart, alice vidal, judy founds also reportedly snapped a meeting with income. but later on, up show things. he's on the way out of all berlin's defense minister admitted germany can provide you print with any guarantees with thoughts, american involvement, we haven't get of determines kept political abilities in the european and the european. they've made a member of that means without the u. s. the tenants capabilities, we won't be able to achieve that security guarantees in ukraine, at least for the next years to come, not alone. and while alternative for germany,

party member and former m a. p gunner back sage berlin. today is all about a colony of washington. and we'll go along with u. s. foreign policy decisions. is kind of low and government talking about the standards. nbc. mr. be store, use it his while. the statement is a rad display of realism. a common sense we don't hear anything like that. somebody shows that this government does history. it will be a new, a government agent on the, on the list of mass. and i think he will be more realistic if the american said that's the biggest it on. if the american people were thinking about you, didn't you, as long as they appear to be taking now, then i've seen the europeans will have to pull it like it, and you will see a remarkable change. the tensions might've been in business for them to live rate

ended, missed so mass and lots of mob on the does those of you they will resolve. some of that for about the baby is human and suddenly it's we collaborate with mr. trump. well, some pretty leading remarks rame, that beijing as well in you that with the conferences term it and seemingly attempting to embarrass china for buying russian gas. let's take a look at what was put to the chinese foreign minister and his response today. and resar has become what's um, john mccain. uh once the site is here at the munich secuity conference, china gas station. i would add, it's a gas station with, with an army. do you see a possibility now that there is more pressure and find me more pressure to finish this war that form from your end to roll it out? so let me assure you, down down in quote, china and russia are 2 neighbors with

a long borderline based on our mutual trust tv. we have built a comprehensive strategic partnership. there's also about china ending gas purchases from russia, which i'd like to ask this home if china does not buy gas from russia, one country will be able to provide them with so much gas machine as to meet the needs of chinese people. it's not possible to do, and it's not safe because you know, some countries have from 10 to politicize, economic and trade issues, and treat them as a tool to suppress china all along. we have advocated that all disputes and disagreements should be settled through dialogues. however, if the us is not willing, if it is bent on suppressing and containing china, then we have no choice but to play along to the end lie. we will resolutely uphold china sovereignty to national dignity and our legitimate development rights. and we will resolutely respond to the unilateral bullying practices of the us funds or after model r t contributor called job point side. europe also benefits from russia's energy supplies to china, receiving it by a 3rd parties, is just stating the facts,

china and brush they had a strategic partnership law for a long time now. and when president sees him came visited mos copied specifically said the relationship between china, china and russia is a no limit strategic partnership. and it's always, it's, it's ridiculous for europe to expect china to stop having our normal tre relationship was russia. malware being a very interesting time because trump has specifically say if you want to wrap up the war in ukraine, and this has throw a lot of european leaders into a tailspin because they, they don't know what to do. now for 4 years, they have followed the washington line on ukraine in any regards to their relationship to russia. and now trump is saying, you know what? it was a mistake, the green worries, the mistake we should make peace. and so i think it's still very hard for

a lot of european leader to make that adjustment re, uh, has supported the idea of a potential meeting between donald trump on vladimir putin on. so the soil as follows, wedding stays fulton conversation between the leaders with the american president floating. the idea of in person talks with his counterpart, the kingdom of saudi arabia commends the phone call. that took place between president donald trump and president vladimir putin. on the 12th of february, 2025. and the announcement regarding the possibility of holding a summit, attended by their excellent, sees the 2 presidents in the kingdom of saudi arabia. the kingdom expresses its welcome to hosting the summit in saudi arabia and reaffirms its ongoing efforts to achieve lasting peace between russia and ukraine, which began with the outbreak of the ukrainian crisis to well saw the political elements and commentator. i've kind of lead by tar fee,

say study of ruby is history of mediation efforts, gives its advantage in hosting potential tots and ending the crank of since uh, but as well. how about this in mind? it's a good friend of all and he has the trust for both of these. he could be a, the mediator, you could join in and bring together. i would, the, the, the 2, but these are throwing ideas. we have experience in these kinds of things and some of the 1st time we do it in the last couple of years. europe was part of, of the property. and uh, you were on the side that to obtain nighted states and new green. we didn't, we, we skipped our, uh, uh, positive uh, new york, new technology. and we didn't join the sanctions

campaign or they didn't listen to a made it going. they ask us to dissolve a big loss, decrease and take a shot. so we out in this position where everybody can see it can trust us to, to be his friend. we are not part of the property. we can only be part of the solution. the riots have broken arch in the lebanese capital. dozens of people clashed with security forces on block the road to be route international airport. the things on folded after authorities refused london permission to enter reunion plane, or t correspondence. the sweeney told us more about the interest. a pale succeeds in the lebanese capital by a route. so the 2nd night in a row, we saw

a truck springing rocks 2 brought the road to the international apple for possible concerning the, the attacks made against the units or forces these of the united nations peacekeepers with one of the vehicles of being at such a light now, as they protest last day for some hours, but the lebanese army have moved and they came under attack themselves. but they have now cleared the rose and they have made a number of arrests uniform has responded to the attack, scolding them a flagrant violation of international war and even suggesting this they may constitute whole crimes out of the liberties president, joseph, i'm the prime minister. i've spoken to the union full, come on and they've given them assurances the investigations underway in the public sciences will be held to account now has been on. i'm all these are the 2 largest shia movements here in lebanon,

where they both condemned the events that took place on friday evening has blown who said, well, the attacks and the riots that we saw on the, on the streets were suspicious. and this comes a needs some, a suggestion that that could be an attempt to internal strife and into the total division at the time when the country is in a very volatile situation. i will, for it's part when it said that these attacks on you to fill forces or any attempt to block them or a stop signal pace and urge the government to clump down with an iron fist and bring those prices to just as now we saw a similar event on thursday have a fridays friday nights, right. it seemed to be somewhat different in columns, and these were coordinate stone a thursday. and of course this was a response to the grounding of

a flight. and it was headed to pay the international apple covering lebanese, as it really is not about situation, hasn't was old itself. those planes are still not being allowed to leave around and not being allowed to land in the lebanese capital, a baby roots. and these are planes are carrying just older 11 east of it is people that are being religious festivals. also there is a flying into the country to attend. the funeral of the slain has lost the general how semester rhonda, which is due to play, take place next sunday. so that has been some suggestion that washington and the as well, might be behind that decision with the lots or even suggesting that it would take some kind of action showed the plain line from iran in by ruth, even perhaps a shooting it down. so the situation again related sweating bullets, all those streets of english arrests have been made. meanwhile, who in southern lebanon as well, has escalated its attacks that are being bombings of 3 settlements and not very

sensitive for the area. this comes just our was off to the coordinating committee met in nicola to discuss the is ready withdrawal, which is supposed to be by february the 18th. so when jews and they said that they confident that that's how the resources will leave the country by then however, this is contradicted by some of the statements we've heard from israel, which they're saying that they're going to be staying in a number of settlements, particularly those are very close to the boulder. so the big question remains now with overall eyes on tuesday is, is well, doesn't leave then what happens next? steps we need. lots are recap of a busy use day, but for all the latest developments do, check out at ortiz, x 8 shop dates every few minutes to keep you in the know this weekend. goodbye the
