i'm rachel ruble live in the russian and capital. you're watching r t international. donald trump's direct and talks with vladimir putting on ukraine have stirred up a hive of european bureaucracy, hawkish officials claim washington is going to soft on moscow. but some pragmatic leaders are prioritizing peace. the hon gary and prime minister has warned of a much bigger problem for the continent. unless the conflict ends. if uh, president trump is not able to find a solution that's wore cold become easily off on obrigone style for beautifully engineer and la floor and left conflict. no way out of the conflict . the things up, energy, human lives, money, other thing. so our bonds are marks come as europe and leaders are avidly following

the backend for us over the ukraine comp liked a during the munich security conference. now in its 2nd day, the fast approaching prospect of peace comes amid urgent assurances from the bottom are zalinski saying europe must take a stand against us and push its own interest. moscow will pull your part if we, as your opinions, don't trust each other. a few days ago, president trump told being about he's going to the station was put in not the ones the to mention that america needs you are at the table. put in was one on one thoughts with america. just like before the war. when they met in switzerland and it looked like to call them up the world snags,

which and we'll try to get the u. s. president. standing on the red square on main, on may 9th this year. not as a respected later, but as a pro, in his own performance. that's across now to r, t correspondence, charlotte davinsky in munich, who is the following. the conference for us, charlotte, many people attending the conference there are reeling from the us. vice presidents bombshell remarks which he delivered on day one, which left european leader is a bit in disbelief and zalinski likely feeling. the heat of the ukrainian leader has been making a concerted effort to stare europe away from the us position as washington tends to shift in foreign policy. what more can you tell us? yeah, that's why, as you did not click bowels load them is the landscape from ukraine. he found it incredibly big to this comes off to a few days of where we've been hearing these bull michelle announcements coming out

from the new white house has been distressing. the under donald trump, 1st of all, that he spoke to vladimir putin. nobody he was looking to have told between russia and the us with ukraine, of course being invited to that, but possibly as a bit of a spare part. and then we had the us vice president j d fonts k in may, nick out the security council laying into your room, criticizing europe. we know he's also incredibly critical of ukraine, but he basically said europe was really use a coming back from its fundamental values of things like freedom of speech. and he said that the us was that it's defending that. we also know that st. lensky and von submit on the sidelines. the conferencing fleet. that is a meeting that didn't go the way zaleski wanted, because you heard that incredibly critical now trying to pay, but towards you replied, trying to pay to be se uh that she was going to use the us as it's profit that

we're going to have a situation where essentially the world is going to be call step again between the us and russia. i mean these very, very, pretty good. the spurious plays 5 large amazed landscape. but essentially, saying now that anyone who speaks to russia is, is, it's right, and he's reading the you of lot of is lensky also saying that you need that. oh no, i mean maybe even pivoting them away from nato. however, the jim and sean slough all look, shot schultz has rejected that. the of has to become self sufficient, united by close friends, ukrainian, and european. it's not to us. then we'll stop them. i really, i really believe the time has come. the forces of your must be created to clean now has nearly 1000000 soldiers on the weapons. if you count altogether that are relevant for the better future that they will, eclipse park would be better,

but they are really eclipse by a bus them, munitions and all the, all the kind. and because of this, it's absolutely clear that the postwar ukraine would have a very strong ami feels. well, what we're seeing now essentially is the you scrambling nass the. the fact that we know the us is opened up those communications to russia. one things and this conflict in ukraine, it was one of the big promises of donald trump during his campaign trail. and he is really trying to push ahead with that. speaking very clearly about how much he respects present. preteen, how he's got, loves the russian. people say it's been really, really interesting, and also we now know that nature's ho oh, the hoax if you cranes,

the paul to plato, also for the much dash from saying, well, you know, we don't think you create necessarily needs to be native of. that's not an issue, but we have criticism now of from the you of donald trump, basically saying that, you know, this is we can do a spy speaking to russia. this is undermining the collective ness of the big group that they've had for the last 3 years. where they being either on the roster and the roster, and his trump coming along and basically smashing that all to pieces need is all pushing back games. what we've been here in this rector, it coming up from the us. and that also includes uh, one guy who is hoping to be germany's next chart. so this, these, the head of this c, d, u. in germany. at the last natal summit, it was agreed that ukraine should be given. the prospect of joining nato. nato's joint efforts are needed here. therefore,

i do not agree with those who say that ukraine's membership and nato should be immediately abandoned. before negotiations with russia begins. there is a certain agreement. there is a certain nato decision. we can abandon this decision. this is one of the options, but this cannot be done by an individual nato member. or, you know, well, this is always been a bit of a back and forth in your best. somebody does say, yes, they support ukraine's ambitions to be part of nato. the lead to saying, well, you know, not so much, we don't think it's that important. don't know. it's a tool. interestingly, now we've obviously had a change of nato leadership under the form of nato boss. uh, there was always a yes, ukraine has this pulse towards nato. now we're hearing from mock hood choose the former prime minister of the netherlands, who's now the head of nature. well, actually ukraine becoming part of nature was never part of the security guarantees

. no, a p. steel, very interesting woods from him has to be enjoying a lasting peace. there's absolute americans are europeans, you're absolutely entertainments on this and to my, your sense of what states gets into the debates, but by complaining that you will, might this or not be at the table, but by coming up as complete proposals. ideas assume area inputs are spending, make sure that the training in the bathroom supplies continue, but also come up with concrete ideas about for example, security guarantees could look like hallmark or the community knows which side is right is bucket because he knows that it's the us that mainly funds nato. and clearly he wants to make sure that trump knows he's kind of on his side when it comes to this telling europe. and lee does stop whining. you might be less stop the talks. but that doesn't matter because the big guys are in the room, and that is the usa and russia when it comes to negotiating

a peace deal for the war in ukraine. all right, r t correspondence, charlotte defense gate. charlotte, thank you to russia studies, professor gilbert and doctor, i've says there's no way europe can keep funding cab with out to us support. and that's in the latest episode of going underground airing throughout the day right here on our tea for now. here's a quick taste of that conversation. is full, empty, talk the europeans, 25 and 27 european leaders are conformist and cowards and they're shaking their bridge today is to what the americans will do. if america pulls out a supporting ukraine and says, boys, it's yours, they know very well that they will drop football. they have no ability to provide equipment, provide manpower to provide the air covered. and the intelligence in

real time intelligence that has been provided. button states insurance they are unable to assist ukraine in any significant way. absent american participation, there are 2 at of 27 national leaders who are ahead of the rest in facing reality. and they are not friends approaching. they are simply really, i think, is a matter of the future is your full crack. finally, since everyone was now running for cover in the face of a mr. trump started aggression plans for, for a revising trade relations with yet there was a lot of wonder sacrifice with a crack the one now to the middle east, where the 6th prisoners swap is happening right now. as part of the israel, hamas ceasefire. deal. 3 hostages had been handed over by the militant group from

dogs, them in exchange. israel has started the release of palestinian prisoners with $369.00 is set to be freed. today, our middle east and bureau chief korea from ocean. i has more details in ramallah with raised palestinian prisoners housing, arriving from his reading jails, which are not all of them. the thing is that israel was set to release the 369 prisoners on the 2nd day, 111000 was detained during the war, plus 12000000 things. so in life terms, an exchange for each is really hostage, many sa sense back to the guy who has 3 depaula to the broad why agents just one prisoner was released to be able to find a verse of him. and just ted here to remember. * the feeling of freedom is indescribable. this is the most beautiful moment embracing my brothers, my mother, and my family on this day. the joy remains incomplete without my brother and god

willing, we will be re united very soon. we left behind hundreds of our imprisoned brothers . the prisons are harsh, filled with disease filled with suffering. everyone is waiting for their moment of freedom and god willing, just as we gained it, they will to spend 23 years in prison. the treatment wasn't that great, not really. honestly, the conditions of the prisoners are miserable. it's not good. but with this joy, everything else fades away, god willing, i will finally return home. this part is ready, warnings against mass gatherings. people have been waiting to welcome them. now, ex prisoners, family, friends, of course, but also ordinary citizens. here the prisoner exchange is seen as most i'm owens of joy and a reminder of last more than 48000 people have been killed. seems 15 months old. the guys are more, according to the stream, sufficient security forces out here on the ground to provide security. i'm really

this is also stand by to check on the newly released mondays to be out of jail today. i meant by move to ones that close a 2 matter one, but i'm going to figure out some so as a future palestinian president is very important. that sentence to teen live terms for office tracy. designated fax, the gates relays he wants to return home today is ro considered as he mass securities fraud and his paints and came abroad. the valley student prisoners risk free the hours off to her mouth where these 3 is really hostages. males civilians, to with dual citizenship, one russian, one america. it was the 6th prisoner exchange and attends a certain from says at times it's felt less like a wasteful hostile just to be read and like it found down to review. and here's why on mondays, tuesdays ro, violating the deals, targeting thousands, trying to return at home in the north of the street. failing to deliver

a promise to any terry in a mean cold and rain, no response from us reference to delay hostage releases. israel denied the claims and reinforced it smells refresh lucy, a gaza analysing that. it is preparing for any scenario, angle squad at escalation, and then came donald trump fishery in hand ultimatum, say it's a mosque must relieve all hostages by noon such as a whole. hell will break out. this demand a clash with the existing bill for the complication and we really fragile pro, says that mr. national kept the army on high alert, but signal to me, th, as the free hostages were free as agreed before. israel will be satisfied for now how mass sold us as a win. here's their statements. nothing. yahoo is procrastination and attempt to evade the agreements. requirements is aimed to save himself and his government. we will not allow the agreement to fail. the israeli occupation has no alternative to

releasing the rest of its prisoners except implementing all the terms of the ceasefire agreement. not everyone. so it's that's way strong. and these are all small rights, 5 brands, former national security, and then as a vendor we're, we're, we're not pleased with israel's position this all sorted up by them saying we are not going to release anymore hostages. and then yesterday they said they are going to release the judges, but i think they should release all of the stages was up to may have to take a very hard stance. i can't tell you what israel's going to do is really government . you have the full backing of the president of the world's greatest power to demand all of the hostages back. and you are satisfied with only 3. this is laxity that has no place. the time has come for action, not talk. if a mouse does not release everyone unleashed the fire of hell on it. 3 is randy hostages were afraid earlier on saturday from noon as in central follicle together 3, i'm on the cell. so tucson of 29 most go head press,

hard for his release brushes and bass. so to, to israel, welcome such as return on sort of thing through the font of was kidnapped with his mother and grandmother and good friends. all 3 were fried in november 2023 in was a mass called gift to mister fulton faster. his father was killed in october 7 during her master's attacks on his really southern communities. here was recently released by palestinians wanting to call the group, also based and guys of health. he showed us off so on a guy's a beach likely signaling to ross so that he was treated well also frames. so i get 2nd hand 36 that is really american father of free. his youngest daughter was born while he was in 5th period to in the gather springs. and both of us administration's law made for his release the odd horn. this, the one released 46 years old was taken with his brother, who's still remains inconsistency in dogs. if he's not going to be released any

time soon for what we know. as in previous rounds him off and p i j turns they tend over into performance, but they saw him, they went further. hostages were driven out in a car hiding jack from a jew is more to keep boots on october 7th, 2023. they were then handed certificates of release from us even gifted gold jewelry to sagas, ink from school to more than 4 months after he was taking hostage back in 202373 hostages. still i'll remain in consider change as a police. wholesale them are believes to be alive, talks on the next phase, either a 2nd stage or an extension more suppose to stop the whole ready, but they did not report suggests negotiations may finally begin next week, which is a significant delay. while we have to wait and see how it plays out, at least 4 police officers have been wounded in

a suspected. you hottest attack in mali that targeted the convoys of molly's minister of higher education. on the thursday, a group affiliated with a guy that is reported to be responsible for the assault. that's a med new accusations, large that us a id for supporting terrorist activities in africa. turns out there's a, there's a get out of to get out of sponsoring terrorism free card at usaid, which is that usa cannot directly provide funding to terrace groups, but their contractors are not required under the grant agreement to go through those, you know, oh, fax style those counter terrorism financing, if a bank did it, you would go directly to jail, do not pass, go, you know, do not have liberty again for the next 20 years of your life. but if usa does it, it's completely legal right now. and so this is how you have usaid giving, you know, they just last week a $122000000.00 to isis. you know, we found,

you know, they, they fund all the terrace groups in pakistan. they fund the, you know, the terrace groups in the, in this a house, in africa, in west africa. this is the case with both of them. it is ranked one of the data is to hardy groups in the world. many people of cards who wondering how does this group get access to a limited amount of weapons, forms, muscle vehicles and communication needs. nigeria itself has hold on the lots of pieces to investigate the funding and training we spoke a lot on taylor was the chief of defend stuff, a question how the surgeons had sustained themselves for 15 years eve and pointed to international conspiracy. in providing the 2 of us with funds, most of the surrendered bogo, her own members came with hard currency. where did they get it? how are they funded? how did they get the training? how did they get the equipment? those are the questions. i think everybody should ask themselves,

maybe it is an international conspiracy. it sends all to the united states agency for international development is cash was used to fund here. we're still going to is ations, including both to have them. and us call with ms. scott to perry as also reveals the dockside to to you is provided for an 8 particularly involving new se i team. how about abdullah been lot who get some of that money? is that name? ring a bell to anybody in the room? because your money of your money, $697000000.00 annually plus the shipments of cash funds, metropolis isis. i'll kind of boca her on, i says corps on terrorist training camps. that's what it's funding your funding terrorism is coming through usa id. think of somebody who over the past year has, has received billions in humanitarian assistance from the somalia. also happens to one of the countries with the highest risk of terrorism. the gold could it be that

america has been providing financial support to some on and to since the beginning? because some mando along with the slumber ted was states including a gun is done with this tiny bunch him and we, these, the whole team does that. we have is how much have been amongst the top inefficiencies of you is a test. last year it's reported a request for $1600000000.00 in aid. and even in december of $224.00, by the end of the ministration ops on the way off the tool, it's in san additional $10.00 to $9000000.00. and to think that for years it's an in the us of ministrations agenda in somalia has been centered around counter terrorism. the u. s. department of state, the us military usa id and other interagency colleagues continue to fight against terrorism threats in somalia. we will continue to work closely with the somali government to support somali as revival as a secure, thriving, peaceful,

and democratic nation. in fact, is probably no exaggeration to such as that many of the darkest pages in the history of the who is foreign policy. can be traced back to counterterrorism programs because even bit from there was an elastic have skyrocketed syncing is began. it's so cold when tara 2024 know the african union contractors in the sense of included over $3400.00 attacks on the continent which resulted in over $15900.00 faith tenants after communion commissioner for political, the fees, peace and security. as even said, africa is facing a timing, timing, and the findings contradict claims by the parents of an advocate for mazda is preventing terrorism on the continent, and promoting security and stability. now, the revelation of activities a link to the u. s. a i d has raised eyebrows. this one in particular might just answer the question off. why, of the big piece of constitute,

was in africa tragically remains the present of global 2 is and maybe indeed the ones fighting it are the ones funding it well now to the southern caucus is where the republic of, of has the a is choosing its next president polls have opened while on certainty lender is over a who will resolve the power crisis, sparked by last year is public unrest, voter turnout has already surpassed 43 percent, according to the local central election commission and the columbia and congressman, observing the election, told us the process has been transparent and there we see the com that is being created. people are arriving all security measures are provided. i am confident that all measures have been taken to ensure the transparency of the elections. i am sure that all conditions have been provided for each candidate to ensure the most honest and transparent conditions for the election campaign. more

than 150 polling stations are open across the country with 2 more available for x pads and russia. people have been lining up to vote here in moscow since this morning. we heard from the supervisor of the voting process in the city. a dozen serial numbers of during the 1st hour of the polling stations operations more than a 100 people voted more are coming. so the activity is good. this is not surprising to me because there was a lot of interest among citizens and these election, this was cause you as you understand, is not a multi 1000000 country and there is a struggle for votes that headquarters reach almost every person and every vote is taking into account the voting procedure itself is designed in such a way that there was simply no room for fraud spoken or to senior correspondent, rog does the breaks down what's at stake in the country which has long been grappling with the legacy of its break away status the tropical jim la shouldn't
