the, the, the, the plane landed is also where tomorrow on the 18th of february, the 1st negotiations on a high level between worse or heavy united states will take place a russian diplomatic delegation. they set foot talks with the american counterparts on tuesday hoping to forward a positive piece over the war. when you great 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. but one person without an invited to the post as the cranes blotted means the lens key. so instead he's locked up next door in the we each building insisting that the can be no peace

without his country is involved. the chief is literally understanding that the men's and provisions are unattainable. and that the new conditions for ending the hostilities in ukraine will be far worse for them. now, the price of peace, russia says any future deal on your prey and will be far less. i've been teachers for kids as it fails to oppose the previous man's good ribbons from a decade ago. and ukraine strikes, one of the biggest oil pumping stations in vasa, but it turns out the blog, gold within those choose function that belongs to the west, the hello there. welcome to our attention option. and you said, tell what the latest update i a michael watching. alright, now marshall stop diploma. i'd say to get rob rob, along with the presidential aid has landed in saudi arabia where that will be

meeting with a us delegation on tuesday. our daisy go, a piece cannot vision. we are right now and sent off this preview of the 40, sorry, a real world. the wave of course was for and then it says start it wherever i just landed. this is also where tomorrow on the 18th of february, the 1st negotiations on the high level between the washer and the amount of faith will take place. less than a week, fast between the phone call between the presidents of the 2 countries. bilateral dies the brain and preparations for the meeting between 11 or 14. and donald trump are expected to be discussed. on from says that this meetings will take place in the near future, or for to be here as well. and i'll be personally making sure to bring you all the details here on our tea arrive. this is going to be the 1st high level meeting between moscow and washington cities before the ukraine war broke out of the delegations are expected to discuss ways of potentially resolving the conflict. all

of a sudden the issue of restoring normal relations is on the agenda. 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 in sort of echoed something that the kremlin said earlier today that the russian side is going into this. trying to reignite, reconstruct comprehensive relations between russia and the united states. that have been cold and not working properly for so many years because of hostile us foreign

policy and live, 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, my peers to show up whenever we go into negotiations upon the suggestion of our partners. our primary goal is to listen to them before the president's putting in trump during their phone conversations agreed on the need to move past the completely abnormal period and relations between these 2 great powers of 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 counterpart is and of course we will be ready to respond. we will report back to our leaders who will make decisions regarding further steps. everyone seems to have gone crazy. i mean, the headlines in years ago on social media and phone saying, the end of the war is imminent. 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 extra deadline . do you think that's actually feasible? listen, i think that 1st we have to recognize it as a historic moment. the fact that us rush a bilateral relations were so abnormal over the past 3 years, especially under former president by that who cut off basically any contact with his cumberland counterparts is really something that we have to recognize. and this period of time has been, uh, something that we haven't seen since the cold work. so the fact that we are 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. russia's national security concerns. it's questions over it's kind of total integrity over the expansion of nato. there are so many concerns, not to mention the numerous sanctions put on russia by the west. all of these has to be part of the negotiations. and ultimately the rest is concerned over d, dean expectation, demilitarization and ukrainian neutrality has to be agreed upon by all partners involved. and so i think that that adds to the complexity here. what could possibly happen is the 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 to us. the things that we've seen moving around right in recent days, this morning, we saw that things were mazda called, might be coming back, and now everyone's thinking good. is this all somehow involved? i don't know. so we have to talk about the munich security conference law prof.

reference that today. um, what specific team did he have? just about 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 it's position not knowing if it's gonna 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 means 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 cease fire in the ukraine conflict. and 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 can 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 combine, yet declared independence from ukraine, and the key ever seemed launched a military offensive against those people calling them all terrorist. so of course

lab rob said that these people need to be held accountable significances. as for the outcome of the munich conference, i can say the following. 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, 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 from washington's perspective, how significant a partner i thought 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 is leader. dire many fishers and fractures within the european alliance.

not only within nato, but in the your opinion itself. and the populace, the people of various european countries are sick of their money going to ukraine and to, and to the possibility of further expenditures in the military. so the fact that some is coming in and the 6 to have the restart in negotiations, the europeans are not as certainly interested in that decades of roots of 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 reading anybody. right? that what happened in, in kelvin, 2014 has to be understood within it and 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 beat a block onto 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 any more process to say we're going to send our sons and daughters do you fame device. and we're willing to take that risk. the problem, of course, is that the start to get up get in countries that are also usually of ours. so we have to understand that there's still a lot of danger in this, and my hope is that cooler heads and same 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 queen is never going to get into nato. then a couple of miles age. we hit us to the same. we need to speed up to create a session to, to the blogs. 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 thought don't just returning to the much anticipated summit in saudi. we know pretty much who's coming from most go now,

prof. presidential aids. i'm sure more in terms of the make up 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 to the middle east. steve with coff, 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 zalinski who's already freaking out about the fact that he didn't know in advance these negotiations were going to take place. ukraine will not take part. ukraine knew nothing about this. and ukraine regards any negotiations about ukraine without ukraine as having no results. we cannot

recognize any things or agreements about us that took place is 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 the american taxpayer dollars. ukrainian media is held a float by american taxpayer dollars and pretty much everything else in the country . so i mean, washington, we could just pull the plug on that and the key version would be in big trouble. and that's connected to something i want to ask you, chris, because obviously we know right now that's it, as, as we're seeing preparations for these talks and saudi arabia, zalinski 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 heard a one are going to potentially be talking about regulating the printing 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 zalinski 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 want is, as he said, if he's not a part of the negotiations, he's not going to 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 worth. 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 zelinski has his own agenda . the rulers, in, 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. now that you, you, it's in no position to be a party to a new future agreements on the ukraine as it would only use a me ceasefire to re um, key if that's the claim by a rushes and bass a bit to the u. n. c. address to meeting all the security council, the timothy did. we all see the developments after the entry into office of the

republican us administration. as we have called for over many months, diplomacy has finally been actively brought into the game regarding e u. countries in the united kingdom are absolutely on faithful to their words and they're both. they cannot be a party to any future agreement on the resolution to the ukrainian crisis whatsoever. present a european politicians are incapable of strategic thought. it leaves you the divides within europe. don't concealed the fact that in the event of a cease fire, they intend to re on ukraine and to prepare it for the resumption of warfare. ukraine today has irrevocably lost, not just crime media, but also the net scan. lugens people's republics. and the carson ends up rogia regions, the self proclaimed ukrainian president zalinski last legitimacy. last may. he direct the country into a conflict for the advancement of others geopolitical interest at the cost of the lives of hundreds of thousands of ukrainians, t f, as bitterly understanding that the men's provisions are unattainable good was and

that the new conditions for ending the hostilities and ukraine will be far worse for them. it was the main thing was requested by russia to monica decade status. the un adopted a peace resolution for eastern new grade. but the document paved the way for the minister agreements, which will eventually fail with bullying later. admitting it was all about buying time for ukraine to re um, now the you is pushing for its place. ive been negotiating table is as this brochure is. once again, using this meeting in an attempt to distort the truth behind it. suddenly google, a durable piece for ukraine must include robust security guarantees, ukraine, russia, and our european partners need to be a part of the conversation. because if your crane is a sovereign nation with in europe, who security is at stake, must participate in any negotiations and be able to decide their failed to stop

john list and offer dialogue or a says that the possible rep or small between moscow and washington will be of little joy to keep the war is wanting to close. all that we have no idea of what lies ahead of the us. uh, it looks a deal with russia. uh, there's literally you can do the v. you can't carry this for forward on his own. and uh, and so let's e as highly dependent on us support. so if there is a us russian deal, but that's kind of the end of the game. but have wherever i think that, that, that zalinski is. uh, hold on. power is very weak. uh, there will be uh, uproar in the nationalist camp and we have no idea what the we are. no, we are the cleaners going uh what the future holds. oh, what just going to happen to the government? there is a peace deal has reached and close that home. now,

one of the largest oil pumping stations in russia was attract overnight on sunday by 7 ukrainian drones. the company operating the facility claims be a task deliberately targeted the stations. personnel of the terrorist attack was carried out by 7 unmanned aerial vehicles loaded with metal projectiles and explosives. the attack took place at timed intervals to not only disrupt the facilities operations, but also caused casualties among the personnel. the trip up can sky oil pumping station located in the caucasus region of coupon is the largest c p. c. oil pumping station in the russian federation, all shareholders of the international consortium, including representatives of companies from the us and europe. that'd be notified about the terrorist attack on the civilian facility by u a. these, this is a yes, another terrorist attack. let's call it what it is which was executed by the key of

regime in the early hours of monday. but so this time for then skis, militants have actually targeted american and european interest trends. and let me tell you why. first of all, the ukranian drones are filled with the metal projectiles and explosives attacks the facility which pumps mainly oil from american and european companies at the root cause. i started the crew, boston scott, oil refinery is the most important hub for the transportation of oil for the caspian pipeline consortium. also known the cdc, it's located approximately 230 kilometers away from the port of number receives for which russian oil is pumped. so an accidental attack is absolutely out of the questionnaire because it's really far from any other fuel and energy facilities. now, as for the shareholders of the caspian pipeline consortium, well, they include international companies, the, where the us ownership and mass through $24.00 homes and quarter percent,

to $62400000.00 tons of oil were pumped for the cdc in 202411.7 percent of which came from russia and 88.3 percent from cars like starting now. the lensky is a behavior is well really unpredictable. at this point, especially the following, the events had been unix, security conference, most or in washington, are about to begin their talks on the settlements of the crating costs, as well as the lensky is seemingly left on the sidelines at the moment. she likes to be a loose cannon. if you will, mind you. even before donald trump took over the oval office, the united states had asked lensky to limit his pride so soon, not to drive off, but boiled prices well. trump said that the oil would play as leverage on russia if it does not sit down at the negotiating tables. and as he seems to have done just

the opposite. in this case, he drove up oil prices and damaged the american interest as well. now, despite zaleski is a self destructive actions, he continues to enjoy support from the european union. and what's the most of the officials there seems to be. well, boy, and to the fact that the reactions of the key of regime are actually hurting your opinions themselves. after all, the latest, the fact does indeed hurt european interest as well. there are nations in europe. however, who understand the danger of uh, this ubiquitous support for fudzinski is a deadly escapades and how they affect the situation. in general, they can listen to this ada. there are those gathering and parents who have been constantly pouring oil into the fire in the last 3 years that are followed or failed strategy in the past 3 different countries that have continuously posed a threat. escalating the war with their policies today in paris, or we're seeing a gathering of pro war little anti trump on,

but frustrated european leaders who wants to stop and agreement from happening on peace and ukraine, melodies and contracts, so that we are supporting donald trump's efforts and the us russia talks year 14 full, no immediate and the director reaction from zalinski is european fans at this point in time. but we should hardly be expecting any reaction any time soon because for the e. u officials, very darling can do absolutely anything, as long as it hurts, flush off into the middle east. now let's see. do i have boss combined has been killed and an idea of drove the strike on a car in solving lab and on the a top to place on monday morning you the city you'll see dawn comes despite an ongoing cx, 5 between ease roll and bare root now with all the details here is our t, steve sweetie, a round 11 o'clock this morning. it is writing for instruct, struck a call here in the city of the state on a southern level,

oftener tony river. now you can see the remnants of the call behind me completely destroyed. we noted the number of casualties according to some media. one of the people that was killed in the vehicle was a senior i think, got from how my see how the city of resistance organization is. well, it appears to be escalating aggression that were being a number of full names on a tax among assessments in the south thousands. this is just a day before the end of the extension of the c 5 agreement. it runs out on tuesday of february, the 18th, and that's due. does it pay to be an officer in those all still it is. we were on the ground yesterday on sundays. everybody's all who low? where is lady faulty is open fire on, on, on civilians. men, women and children holding a number of people hostage and killing a 13 year old go now for the wedding,

remain on the ground. the lady policies refused to allow it to be with cupboards. that was an appeal from the authorities for uniform on the international red cross to help with the recovery of that body. now, as we understand on monday morning, the 40 has now been recovered to people that were held hostage. they have also be released by the big question is whether is well, will actually withdrawal its policies. so old eyes really are on a choose i to see whether it is valid. this of i agreement, whether it's withdrawal, the full states policies, the liberties government said by president joseph howard. will they be assisted? mostly by that deadline, the committee, the overseas, the implementation will issue statement last week saying, so they expect to as well. we'll leave. the big question is, is what remains?

what happens next? this is steve sweeney fidelity in sit on southern evidence. why stay with our team to national for all the latest from around the world? thanks for watching. the, [000:00:00;00]

the during the 2nd will pull underground power, military organizations and potent occupied by german troops, as well as in the bordering regions of bella, ros. we're united into the so called home on a 50 without the police a center or would the organ. let me do the prospect. just say it's because i use a blue screen time list. and if i put in the front of it is actually considered legitimately bullying through the sexual shy stick of the who. mommy was the main organization of the publish resistance, fighting against jim and occupation and soviet rule. others dominion army currently away 1920 the level. she's really unfair boys, folks. i mean, this thing is going to put those on anything unusual this, you know, that's what i was the home on a county down operations to destroy the nazis. but then switch to settling schools with soviet partisans and the civilian population that supported them. they have

nearby to automatically over to destroy your husband's army today. well, i've been in the new dig. i bought it from my goal is to be a good product is on the new process that us pretty liberal in agreement or just the booklet is devali. 16, those up let me know 40 points thing. when you grow, you belittle serious deal of forgotten. you have no need. so for us, as jim sydney, we generally for example, you treat you most of the hello and welcome to the cost of full force. here we discussed some real in the i'm action retentive. welcome to going under gabriel,

gusting around the world from the heart of the middle east with old troubles. foreign minister, secretary of state, monica rubio appears to be here to sell the ethnic cleansing the file as time that is the world, including where i am. so we can view from rejects the plan, continuing to support the 2 state solution for the palestinians. while trump $7000000000.00 of us age and the full mass civilian killing, 2000 pound bombs, but israel reaches net and yahoo, the president has at least opened the pandora's box of u. s. a. d. use when it was too complex for the c i a to the stabilize governments around the world. joining me from the us capital, washington dc is a 2 decades c. i a man who testified about the corruption of x c. i a boston robert gates under george were senior today male goodman, and senior fellow at the center for international policy, a professor of government to john hopkins university and the national security calling list accounts a bunch. it provides a goodman counter punch where i used to. right? well, i kind of right. i should still be writing for it. i got to talk to you about right? yeah. i know time to stop right. exactly. no,

no time. clearly because of your new president. i blame it will on him, us secretary of state rubio is here, said you'll to continuing his release to a. we get strange comments from trump where policy doesn't match his comments off the cuff. and he says things that i read the end of the previous administration, just from your insight in years there. i don't know what you think of john radcliff, the new head of the c i a year old. we used to what, how far is trump being undermined? from the inside or is he being more undermined than usual or less? well, frankly, i don't feel he's being undermined at all. i figure, i feel that he's appointed a group of loyalists who are paying affility to him. and what really bothers me is they're going out of their way to do things that are in just as crow. and just as unconscionable as trump himself. so they can climb up the ladder or favortism in
