the, the some breaking news, the problem confirms thought a top diplomatic delegation will head to saudi arabia on tuesday. they'll sit down with their american counterparts for getting a pop towards a political settlement of the you praying conflicts. we will listen to our american counterparts, and of course we will be ready to respond. we will report back to our leaders who will make decisions regarding further steps. while polanski didn't get an invite to the tool, he's decided to stay close to the action any way over in the u a. and he's insisting that without ukrainian representation, that could be no. please steal also to come in this fashion. it was in a certain sense, european nightmare. but at the same time, it was also

a very enlightening conference because we learn from the speech of the us, vice president, that this america under trump is living on another planet hall rhetoric from the us sub team unit security conference needs. your appends on edge bring the performance chapman to to conclude and this becomes difficult. the find a power struggle is brewing in ukraine. a local med says or forward sees in coupon no longer up to the task of running the country and add the lens team is staring down the barrel of a minute, treat the points of the

a team they are most welcome to the program. it's good to have you with us as monday. let's me take a look. what's happening on around the world. well next door re at the kremlin, has officially confirmed that most goes top. diplomats okay. allow for off, along with a print presidential aid will meet with a us delegation in saudi arabia. on tuesday, they are expected to discuss the ways of potentially resolving the ukraine conflict . all of us the, the issue of restoring normal relations is on the agenda. each of those, now the question is about agreeing on how to start negotiations for now in this context, if we're talking about bilateral negotiations, the latest comments that we have from any sort of russian official on these upcoming negotiations that are set to take place in saudi arabia on tuesday are from sir day lab, rob the russian foreign minister during his bilateral meeting with the serbian foreign minister. but they didn't just talk, of course about relations between serbia and russia. lab, rob, tony talked a lot about the expectations that the russian side has for these upcoming

negotiations. the sort of echoed something that the kremlin said earlier today that the russian side is going into this. trying to reignite reconstructs comprehensive relations between russia and the united states. that have been cold and not working properly for so many years because of hostile u. s. foreign policy and lab, rob said, right, the main goal of the russian delegation is going to be not to make ultimatums or park orders or anything like that. but to listen to the other side and get past the sort of relations that have really played diplomacy between russia in the united states for many years appears to show up whenever we go into negotiations upon the suggestion of our partners. our primary goal is to listen to them. so the former president's putting in trump during their phone conversation agreed on the need to move past the completely abnormal period and relations between these 2 great power,

not a month when essentially they were not communicating at all except about some technical and humanitarian issues. the presidents concurred, that dialogue needs to be resumed on all matters that can be addressed with the involvement of both russia and the us. this includes discussions about the situation in ukraine, the middle east, and several other regions around the world that are currently experiencing unrest. therefore, we will listen to our american count of finals, and of course we will be ready to respond. we will report back to our leaders who will make decisions regarding further steps. so everyone seems to have gone crazy. i mean, the headlines, the nearest you go on, social media and phone saying, the end of the whole, it's a minute. it's just around the corner. what's your view on that? is that slightly over optimistic? some people even saying we've got an east, a deadline to think, thoughts, actually feasible. listen, i think that 1st we have to recognize this is a historic moment. the fact that us, russian, bilateral relations were so abnormal over the past 3 years, especially under,

for our president bided, who cut off basically any contact with his cumberland count. the parts is really something that we have to recognize of this period of time has been, uh, something that we haven't seen since the cold war. so the fact that we're restarting diplomatic relations and at least having a dialogue is very symbolic. and something that can lead to some progress on not only the bilateral relationship, but on possibly ending the war a new frame. however, i think we have to send for our expectations. there are a lot of complexities involved here versus national security concerns. it's questions over it's kind of sort of integrity over the expansion of nato. are so many concerns, not to mention the numerous sanctions put on russia by the west. all of these have to be part of the negotiations. and ultimately the production has concern over deed expectation, demilitarization, and then ukranian neutrality has to be agreed upon by all the partners involved. and so i think the fed as the complexity here, what could possibly happen. he's a rep 1st month between united states and russia, but to get opinions going on

a separate test on a wordpress. and we have to recognize that that's a possibility in this equation. was also interesting because the things that we've seen moving around right in recent days this morning, we sold it visa, mastercard might be coming back and now everyone's thinking good is this all somehow involved? i don't. so we have to talk about the mean a security problem, friends, lot prof. reference that today. um what specific paint did he have to say about thought events? well, at the press conference that he gave, which i mentioned before, he talked a lot about right, how this is connected to the european union kind of feeling insecure and its position. not knowing if it's going to have a significant spot or a spot at all at the negotiating table when it comes to coming to sort of some sort of peaceful resolution to this ukraine conflict and lots of asked. i mean, why should they have a position at all in the negotiating process when they've still got this attitude that they have had since the minsk protocols back in 2015. and this just to remind

our viewers was an agreement that was signed by a number of parties, including russia, germany, france, to establish a ceasefire in the ukraine conflict. then later on, european officials had admitted that this was just to buy ukraine time to prepare its military for a larger conflict with russia and russia had actually engaged in these negotiations in good faith. and now at the munich security conference, we've got people like the finished president saying that maybe they could cut another troops to buy more time and prepare the military for another confrontation for the european union. it's just more war war. no, no sort of understanding of, of what it's gonna take to actually come to a peace agreement in this conflict. and again, we're talking about the european sponsors of a regime that lab ross has called out for its many crimes. i mean, we're pressing the russian language, we're pressing russian culture,

giving these basically for a free way to neo nazis, to put their own political agenda at the forefront of the country. i mean, so, and of course we can forget about when the people's republic simple guns can then yet declared independence from ukraine and the key ever seem launched a military offensive against those people calling them all terrorist. so of course lever on said that these people need to be held account of this note. as for the outcome of the munich conference, i can say the following. sl, everyone must be held accountable for their actions when someone engages in lawlessness for many years. and when a nazi regime is arm to kill its own citizens at all, while hoping to somehow slip by and hide under a nuclear umbrella that will no longer be tolerated. people must answer for their deeds. that's even stated in the bible. if they attempt to push for some cunning ideas about freezing the conflict while continuing to wage war, as per their usual customs and habits, then why invite them at all. for washington's perspective, how significant

a partner about negotiating table is brussels. we're seeing that there's a lot of hysteria coming out of european countries. there's also fracturing into european countries. we have to recognize for binding hungry also, slovakia as leader dar many fishers and fractures within the european alliance. not only within nato, but into your opinion itself. and the populace, the people of various european countries are sick of their money going to ukraine and to end to the possibility of further expenditures in the military. so the fact that some is coming in and 6 to have the restart in negotiation, the europeans are not as certainly interested in that decades of rooster phobia. and sort of ramping up this conflict and the futile mongering of a possible russian invasion of europe of the borders. russia has expressed no interest in invading anybody. right? the what happened in, in kelvin, 2014 has to be understood within it to circle context. but there's been no indication that the russian federation, 6,

any other military conflict. so this fear mongering is actually playing into the cards of those will seek to create a european wide army. those who advocate it always for europe actually to move away from the u. s. block. and to be it's a block unto itself and to have its own policy outside of washington. the fear here is that brussels might eventually tell the americans if the americans cut a deal and say, we don't want to be involved anymore. brussels to say we're going to send out our sons and daughters do you paying device, and we're willing to take that risk. the problem, of course, is that these are 2 european countries that are also nuclear powers. so we have to understand that there's still a lot of danger in this, and my hope is that cooler heads and seeing people can prevail in brussels to forge a new restart to this entire situation, not only for their own countries, but for the good opinion global security at large. i'm also just, i would add, very interesting, we're hearing basically the usa, the ukraine is never going to get into nature. then a couple of hours later we hit us to the same. we need to speed up to create the session to, to the blog,

to the new blog is very difficult to imagine. may find not actually right how brussels would be able to weather taking in ukraine with what that was that, i mean, just totally rebuilt, how they would survive that. don't just returning to the much anticipated summit in saudi. we know pretty much he's coming from moscow now. prof. presidential aids, i'm sure more in terms of the makeup of the us team. what are we looking at him? well, we've already seen the video of secretary of state, marco rubio, touching down in saudi arabia. so it looks like he's going to be part of the american delegation. but earlier in the day we also heard from trump's special envoy in the middle east. steve wick off, who said that he's going to be making his way to saudi arabia with his colleagues, with the rest of the delegation. and there's also reports that the national security advisor mike waltz is going to be there as well. and they've all gone with the stated purpose of improving ties with moscow and making some sort of progress towards a potential peaceful resolution of the ukraine conflict. and that's something that

is obviously bad news for vladimir zaleski who's already freaking out about the fact that he didn't know in advance these negotiations were going to take place. the ukraine will not take part. ukraine knew nothing about this. and ukraine regards any negotiations about ukraine without you frame as having no results. we cannot recognize any things or agreements about us that place without us. now that's a really bold claim that so lensky is not gonna accept any sort of negotiations that he's not a part of, especially when washington is basically keeping the country afloat. right. i mean, the military budget would not, would completely sync without american taxpayer dollars. ukrainian media is held afloat by uh, american taxpayer dollars and pretty much everything else in the country. so, i mean, washington, we could just pull the plug on that, have the key version would be in big trouble. and that's connected to something i wanted to ask you, chris, because obviously we know right now that it as,

as we're seeing preparations for these talks and saudi arabia lensky himself right now, is in the united arab emirates right next door. you know, he wasn't on the guest list for saudi arabia, and we also have heard that he and her to one are going to potentially be talking about regulating the brain conflict. seeing how that, what kind of progress they can make on that. so what the likelihood, do you think there will be for us to lensky, to play some part in these negotiations at large? donald trump might be a good deal maker, but zalinski is a good salesman. so he's right now going to sell all of ukraine. if he can do whoever can be the, the highest or the lowest bidder, depending on the situation. so i think part of what's happening is that the lens, he feels left out. he understands that the, our power is bigger than him. that are at the table. he's basically that the kids stable and the bigger powers are trying to figure things out. and so let's, he says, i want a piece of the action. he's going to go to other regional partners. of course, ukraine has an economy that has suffered in this war time. he might be willing to

sell up enterprises, philip opportunities for investors to come in for concessions for the opportunity to get something in return. and of course, what he ultimately once is, as he said, if he's not a part of the negotiations, he's not gonna agree to anything. which means that he's willing to carry this on. he's willing to continue to have ukraine in a state of absolute war, us and taking people off the streets and carrying them against their will to the front lines to die for him and his the ruling class of their. so i think ultimately we have to understand that zalinski has his own agenda, the rulers in gifts have their own agenda. and if the west no longer supports the, they're going to continue regardless of the cost in their minds. and until he's actually, you know, removed from power and he already has no authority to be there, given that he's not re elected. so i think that there's a lot of complicated factors here. and i think ultimately he's going to try to do whatever bilaterally or multi letter that he can do to try to get

a leg up in these negotiations. a night lab for europe. that's how the chad, one of the units security conference described. the new us administration's approach towards the continent this vash, it was in a certain sense, european nightmare. but at the same time, it was also a very enlightening conference because we learn from the speech of the us, vice president, that this america under trump is living on another planet as well. that we action was likely triggered by the us by piece page. and when she talked to the podium to tell your parents that they thought that priorities wrong. j g. yvonne's was met with this silence and shocked. looks as for the conferences chapman, well, it was all too much in this order. it's easy to disrupt. it's easy to destroy, but it's much harder to reboot. so that us stick to these values. let us not reinventing but focus on strengthening their consistent application.

let me conclude and this becomes difficult. the why do we, we are doing, by pun, lift guests to discuss the biggest movements from unit because what is how the west is having to learn the meaning of compromise. and then after changing world, when we look at the election of donald trump, it's probably europe's worst nightmare because the over the past 3 years of a but approach to conflict in ukraine from a one dimensional perspective. i'm not allowing any room for a diplomatic solution. and now all of a sudden, when you have the most powerful country in the world, they're nato ally, they're probably most dependable ally, historically pulling you can complete, you turn, you have multiple voices coming from the european consummate. you have

a man like for bonds who wants to use uh, you have people like the germans, the european commission, who are more pro war continuing the war and you have a lot of countries on this side. tricky was smart since the beginning of the conflict. it kept this relationship with ukraine and kept this relationship with russia, and it was a book carp compartmentalize both. that wasn't easy, but it was a huge diplomatic success and it gave a blueprint a template of how these countries should have managed the past 3 years. but then again, none of them did throughout the said 3 years, turkish press the origin, the type ad one was called pro russian when he was probably one of the only pro peace guys, probably the 1st pro peace politician vocal and advocating for a diplomatic solution. and he did everything he could, but unfortunately he was working against the blog that don't want to see a protracted word. of course, the indian foreign minister, a sort of mind john john carter,

also taking part in the conference. gentleman please closely listen to this comment from the indian foreign minister. there was a time on i'd have to say this in all honesty with the west treated democracy as a western kind of critic and was busy encouraging non democratic forces in the global top. it showed us, i mean in many, many cases i can find somebody recent ones, where actually every thing that you say you value at home, you don't practice abroad when, as the us actually spread democracy, the us once installed public leaders all over the world. and you know, if you look at, during the cold war, in the name of the fighting communism, a do us just uh, installed uh router, uh, dictators in latin america and in africa and in asia. and same thing now

is uh, but happening in, uh, uh we, ukraine, you know, so there are no elections that a zillion fee is. uh, basically a, uh, a dictator. do i do us uh, funded and armed denazi's and ukraine for more than a decade. so in the munich security conference, you know, they talked about, you know, the theme was remote people are world. and i, that's what they really have to work towards. and if you look at your opinions, they just realized that they're, they're just a vassals, a chinese foreign minister without the munich security conference. he, he might have a few statements here. have a listen to what the chinese foreign minister had to say, please. so let me show you around audio. china and russia are 2 neighbors with a long borderline based on our mutual trust. we have built a comprehensive strategic partnership,

so about china ending gas purchases from russia. i'd like to ask this if china does not buy gas from russia, what country will be able to provide them with so much gas, which means it's not safe because you know, some countries tend to politicize economic and trade issues and treat them as a tool to suppress china, we will see a new change on the drum. we see the different tools being used. now we have detected strategies to go cost maple to see now traveling is that to, to consolidate. you seem to know, you know, you make simple sections about what you guys do, you, you shouldn't be clear. yes, we have seen how the whole for the past couple of years now we have seen how beautiful colors have views us as, as a piggyback on the touch of russia. and using new create the pre test and ukrainian may, i have suggested that the top bras in t of needs to be plans address was published on the telegram channel of the policy of the former president, coach per 2nd quote. who recently found himself with sanctioned by national

sovereignty. when things are difficult at the front, when it is necessary to unite the authorities or persecuting the opposition, i as a military man, as the mayor of boris bull, and as a conscious citizen, working for the victory, do not understand what is happening in the country. perhaps the authorities are sick, the way out is to carry out a global cleansing if the military will do it, you will not like it. meanwhile, platinum is the landscape says that's a very good reason. he hasn't held elections. apparently the people don't want to change of government while those who disagree with kids stone still not can simply give up that system. this is what's really worry important. i'm right it. you know, to speak about elections if you want, your brain is, don't want totally done to along because the freight because otherwise for the lose their military law we're law and our soldiers will come back home and clinton will

occupied. all our 3rd 3 is not involved. you know myself, it's about the future of our country. it's about for to date. really, the question is to survive. the question is to save ukraine, our independence, our people, our homes, and the if somebody doesn't like they can choose and other citizenship if they want as well when it comes to guessing of a possible issue is not as easy as zelinski says, not to because ukrainian might have conscription age all bound from leaving the country without special permission. it's also become common place for recruitment offices to full. so please send them to the front line. tension on the screen says why, saying and with it that have been cases of assassination attempts against investment offices. for example, one woman recently blew herself up near a group of minute trees uprooted. she killed herself and did help us out. also

enjoying 6 office. we spoke with foam ukrainians care to solve this officer facility preserves. he said zalinski won't allow elections because he knows he wouldn't. when is the change of government in ukraine? it's a rhetoric will also change all the dogs will be set on the loser, including failures on the front lines and failures with mobilization. they'll pin the actions of the conscription office on the defunct of government. they will say it's zalinski is fault. they are the new government. they have shrugged it off. it won't happen again and so on. they've turned the page. they're starting from scratch, hoping that good russia will forget and forgive everything. and with a clean slate they will decide to negotiate. but for this to happen, the government should be changed 1st. if given the opportunity to vote, ukrainians would certainly take the lensky down. another thing is that zalinski doesn't need elections. i think he is well aware that they would be like death for

him. and of course, he will resist the elections until the last possible moment, as long as he can. and so i don't really believe in the possibility of ukraine having an election. so, the question is, who among the external players will support to lensky further? if let's say the u. s. refuses to support ukraine and leaves it only to europe, then there is a chance that ukraine and its current state will not even make it to autumn. well, russia has requested a meeting of the un security council because the decade is paul. since the body adopted a resolution looking for peace in the eastern region of ukraine up system. and the french representatives became self proclaimed republic slipped. and that's going to hans on the 24th of february we had launched it's large scale invasion of ukraine, file 18 view, and charter and international law. i recall that russia had spent some 8 years repeating its support for the minutes of agreements to which it is a signatory, and which was supported by this councils. resolution 2202

in launching its war of aggression against ukraine. russia alone took the decision to cause the misc agreements to failure to fail. it chose to put an end to dialogue, negotiation. it shows war for those who are puzzled about why the admin scream is failed, should turn to russia for an answer. mister president, the russia must respect the ruling of the i. c. j, which called on it on the 16th of march 2022 immediately to suspend its military operations. it cannot continue to disregard g a resolutions which have condemned the aggression 7 times and of called for the territorial integrity of ukraine. in one week. once again, we will be meeting to mark the 3 years since the beginning of the large scale invasion of ukraine by russia. ukraine will submit to the general assembly of resolution assessing the past towards just comprehensive and lasting peace in

accordance with you and charger. it has our full support ukraine. the southern states in europe, who security is at stake, must participate in any negotiation and be in a position to determine their own future. a settlement of this conflict, if it were to be decided without them, would not be lost in it would be an endorsement of might, makes right. and an assertion of a sphere of influence. disregarding the sovereign equality of states, frances prepared to bolster its support to ukraine, and we will do so as long as is necessary. at this very moment. they were consultations among european leaders in paris at the initiative of the president of public and manual my call on the situation in ukraine and security issues in europe . these efforts may be extended in other form formats as well. the purpose is to bring all parties together who are interested in peace and security in europe. thank you. well,

guy hit firewood that around the fire. i essentially represented our friends now like if the floor to do ok, then 10. i think assistance extra young kid for his briefing, present to russia is once again, using this meeting in an attempt to distort the truth behind it's illegal war. i'll make 3 points about lessons. first, events of the last decade in ukraine originate from a simple, sad reality. russia's imperialist mission and failure to respect ukraine's suffering to russia is not a reliable policy to agreements or treaties. in freely signing up to the men's good grievance, russia had the opportunity to insure peace, russia and ukraine with a sole parties to those agreements. and this council consistently

called on old policies to implement that commitments info. right up until the moment when president purch and decided that on the 22nd of february 2022, i quote, the ministry agreement no longer existed. second, russia continues to violate the you and show it to an international law in multiple ways. and it's more in ukraine, russia has targeted civilians and civilian infrastructure. hospitals, schools, energy infrastructure. it has abducted children is raped women. it is compromised, nuclear safety and security flouted international law and torture to

detainees. for all these reasons, it is no surprise that the i, c. j, has issued an indictment on presentation. we will not tolerate russia's attempts to spread this information and tie foot this council's attention away from its atrocities for its efforts to subjugate a sofa in state. russia is the sole architect of the war in ukraine until the end. now, if it chose to by withdrawing its forces. 3rd, less than the international community must stand firm in support of peace and security. no one wants this war to end more time ukraine. putins. so cold pre conditions for 2

weeks, reaffirmed by his deputy, for a minister just a few days ago being that ukraine withdrew from its own suffering territory on the bands and its suffering. right? to choose its alliances. no country could or should accept this. so we can and must create the conditions for a just and lost in peace, which protects you crate and security. so for and t and independence. this will require robust security arrangements from the outset, which ensure that russia is never april to insight. again. putin has shown time and again, but he will break a weak deal for you. k will continue to play all.
