the, the of the headline sort of the international is history in the making with the piece on the table in saudi arabia . because the top diplomats from russia and america are set to beat, to normalize relations and find a resolution to the ukraine conflict cabins bitterly understanding that the men's provisions are unattainable and that the new conditions for ending the hostilities and ukraine will be far worse for them to go to of reality the united nations because a lot of the entity in physics, no discussions for settlements, can happen without ts, but yet the tools will go on. he's apparently, he's not even on the guest. and as europe looks for a spot on the sidelines, it is, you politicians hold emotional defaults and powers, but 0 plan of action is developed in a box of hungary text him. i went to slammed them for trying to print off. we're
2:01 am
seeing a gathering of pro or anti trump and my frustrated european leaders the want to stop in agreement from happening on piece and you print the well, there was a lot of optimism surrounding this morning's events and re added. we have a correspondence all across the region to bring us the very latest. at the moment it happens. so top story, this our straight to saudi arabia. we go where it's right now, just off the 10 am in riyadh and the world is watching that city is american and russian officials are gearing up to try and sort out a peace settlement for the crate. conflict of senior political correspondent, good pistol is in the capital. this was nearly impossible to imagine just a short while ago. but today in the capital of saudi arabia, russian and us delegations are meeting for the 1st time in many years last night. rush us for ministers, lane, a lot of that here in air, right? yeah, i have lot of air pollutants envoy unit will truck off was also on it,
2:02 am
and they're going to be meeting with the us delegation headed by us next year of state, marco rubio. obviously a lot is on the agenda. the conflict in ukraine, of course, but both sides said that they're also going to be focusing on normalizing relations in general. and preparing for the meeting between president vladimir putin and donald trump last night and judy will shut off, said that's who they are ready to work. gotcha, that's what i, what is your mood like in the run up to the negotiation? what would be the ideal outcome that's most of them will see. the main thing is to normalize relations between moscow in washington. after the talks and do you think there was a chance that tensions will subside? but it's almost like let us wait until tomorrow. there are serious people here. we also came with a serious approach. now another thing that was kind of hard to imagine just recently, but healing musk appraised to be upcoming meeting and writing in his ex accounts
2:03 am
will be closely monitoring the events unfolding here in saudi arabia. and of course, will be bringing you all the latest details as we get them qualification. i'll be on a topic on this agenda as to western sanctions, as put in the said they would. yep. they will boomerang an american companies of, of hundreds of billions of dollars if they well packed up their businesses and bailed russia. so paving the way for that raton is one of the goals and the tools between washington and moscow. that's according to the ceo of the russian direct investment fund, a member of the russian delegation currently in re a little bit. so we're just going to go to some of today's negotiations with the american delegation are extremely important. the whole world is watching whether the united states and russia will be able to improve their relations as better relations would allow us to address a significant number of global challenges and the problems currently facing the world. we see the economic cooperation is also important and i will be in charge of
2:04 am
the economic aspect of the discussion for the 1st time. we are now saying that american businesses have lost more than $300000000000.00 by leaving the russian market. therefore, finding joint economic pathways and positive solutions to issues is extremely important, primarily for the us and for many other countries that are starting to understand that the russian market is highly attractive and this it is necessary to be present there. we hope for a positive discussion, a positive dialogue, and we certainly see that president trump is very actively addressing the large number of problems in the world. we hope that russia's position will be clearly heard and the dialogue will continue on. so one of this as a landscape is essentially making his rounds across the region, off of the u, a. e. he's now in total theater, trying to put together talks about the details of an upcoming prisoner exchange. and so while it's all lies on the saudi capital right now, that landscapes essentially trying to remain relevant on the sidelines saying
2:05 am
without t ever the table, these talks mean nothing, says 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 took place without us. well, the whole free money trade from washington to key f is essentially ground to a hold and get this according to report. so the us has now told you credit is time to pay off the bill. issue schwartzenturber for the once key of to compensated with $500000000000.00 for prior assistance by that number, even bigger than germany's world war, one reparations request, ukraine's rare minerals varies infrastructure. oil and gas resources surprised surprise. but as the titans rush ambassador to the united nations, instead of any possible agreement with, must go now will be file was for key of and it was back in the past. the way it's
2:06 am
a moving team is bitterly understanding that the mincing provisions are unattainable. and that the new conditions for ending the hostilities and ukraine will be far worse for them. certainly we do. 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. some of those 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 solidarity. the divides within europe don't conceal the fact that in the event of a ceasefire, they intend to re on ukraine and to prepare it for the resumption of warfare. and if you crane today has irrevocably laws, you're not just crime media, but also the net scan, lugens people's republic, and the carson ends up rogia regions of the self proclaimed ukrainian presidents,
2:07 am
a lensky loss legitimacy. last may be drag the country into a conflict for the advancement of others geopolitical interest at the cost of the lives of hundreds of thousands of ukrainians. i've been talking with a senior risk consultant of the gulf states analytics alessandra bruno. he says that savanski has been excluded from these. told to give negotiators who actually one piece a genuine chance to achieve result. i think this is actually to be expected and quite normal. the question is, of course, once the united states decides to cut off the funds to ukraine and the supply of weapons, it would be over and imagine a big because they won't have the salaries to, to uh, to pay the soldiers. they won't have the salaries to pay the government officials are surprised. the officials, i don't, is apparently the levels of corruption that i've been uncovered are unbelievable. i mean, these are preparatory talks, but it is truly shows the determination of the us to achieve something important.
2:08 am
it is that they are biological and they be limited to, to both parties that have to continue to for some strange reason to, to not going to hope, but to believe that you crank when or at least that's what they're telling their voters. the european union told a you, it's shocked, looking a bit like a deer in headlights these days as leaders gather and powers for an emergency meeting to figure out how to react to washington, kicking them out of discussions to resolve the ukraine. conflict will turn out to be a fairly typical champagne lunch, came to an end with 0 results, and that's of hunger. it took a moment to slam fellow europe, the latest, but ultimately finding the flames of all that there are those gathering in paris who have been constantly pouring oil into the fire in the last 3 years that are followed or failed strategy. in the past 3 down the 40 countries that have continuously posed a threat, escalating the war with their policies today in paris,
2:09 am
or we're seeing a gathering of pro war little anti trump frustrated european leaders who wants to stop and agreement from happening on peace and ukraine. management contract that we're supporting donald trump's efforts and the us russia talks, which for european leaders seem to be at log a heads out in reason of what to do next. and the way feature not being able to come up with any concrete plans, despite the fact they met that, that emergency meeting here in paris, that was an old european lead is no, it was just a select few me this of countries like poland from germany and also the u. k. being invited to low into that now the case prime minister kit salma put things together. plans to census keeping true to ukraine. that didn't go down well with everyone. but here's what salma was like to do. your must play its
2:10 am
role as i'm prepared to consider committing purchased forces on the ground, alongside off those. if there is a last in piece of agreement. but the must be a us bucks stop. because a us security guard said, this is the only way to effectively deter russia from attack. can you create a good? but okay, so miss thing with god bless your always he's going to need the us as a back stop. well too many cooks, boy liberals, that's what we heard from the us special and boy chief calla guntee. he might be why? because they couldn't come up with a plan that they could all agree on. we have the usual folks like president backorder holding that meeting, saying you needs to spend more money on defense stuff. also what we heard from this level and delay in the european commission president saying peace through strength
2:11 am
. what she means is we need to keep building more weapons and buying more weapons. and that, of course, is music to the ease of defense contract is a gym and ease law just defends contract to saying actually this is the entire reason why your opinion does. haven't been invited to that summit, the big boys summit and read between russia and the us. and that's because they have and funded that defense for decades. now, if you don't invest, if you're not strong, they handle you like kids. if parents have dinner, the kids have to sit at another table. the us is negotiating with russia and no european. is it the table? it has become very clear that the europeans, all the kids problems for minnesota all. so it's a blessing that at some point you will have to send it from steve crane at possibly
2:12 am
off to being requested by the united states to do that. and he was like, well, that's something we will need to acquiesce to. nature's chief saying europe is willing to step up to the plate, but again, new details and lots. the points. new details will agree, told in not meeting in paris inside was need a stool that this was the gym and chance to all of schultz who said it is not the time to be discussing the future. if you claim with that ukraine, this is for least for food and it is completely premature and completely the wrong time to have this discussion now and finish. i'm even a little irritated by these debates. if i have to say, people are talking here about possible variance of outcomes over the heads of ukraine is just about the outcome of peace talks that have not taken place. and with which ukraine has not said yes and has not sat at the table. this is highly inappropriate to put it bluntly and honestly,
2:13 am
we don't even know what the outcome will be. well, the meeting in paris was just a sideline. and so i go into what we don't know because there was some equipment made. and it seems that you will be in need is, are flaming, rammed almost like headless chickens. after the announcements that we've been seeing, coming up from the white tests. and you can imagine mostly this will be, has left paris. i'm wondering what is going to be the outcome of the tools at the big boy table. i'm not 2nd place later today in the, at so many times. the current coffee does carry on overnight sunday. kia have carried out an attack on one of russia's largest oil pumping stations. rushers deputy security council chapman highlighted the latest jo, avi striking infrastructure that is actually partially owned by various america and european corporations. the company talked with operate and the facility released the following state. the crow pumpkin sky oil pumping station, located in the cool, cuz this region of coupon is the largest c p. c. oil pumping station in the russian
2:14 am
federation. all shareholders of the international consortium, including representatives of companies from the us and europe, have been notified about the terrorist attack on the civilian facility by u. a. b's. this is a yet 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 explosive attacks. the facility which pumps mainly oil from american and european companies at the root cause i started the boston sky 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 sees for
2:15 am
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 to where the us ownership and as 224 and quarter percent says $62400000.00 tons of oil or pumped for the cdc in 202411.7 percent of which came from russia and 88.3 percent from cause ext. uh now, the lensky said 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 c, the left on the sidelines at the moment she looks to be a loose cannon, if you will, mind you. even before donald trump took over the oval office,
2:16 am
the united states had asked lensky to limit his price. those too not to drive up port royal prices. well, trump said that the oil would play as leverage on russia. if it did not sit down and then 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 despise it, as is a self destructive actions. he continues to enjoy support from the european union. but the most of the officials there seems to be a little boy and to the fact that the reactions of the key of re g bar actually housing europeans themselves after all the latest attack does indeed hurt european interest as well. oh, no, immediate. and the direct reaction from zalinski is european fans at this point in time. but so we should hardly be expecting of any reaction any time soon. because
2:17 am
for the e. u. officials very darling can do absolutely anything, as long as it hurts russia to live in on big over here on the program on a t where a senior must come on to his report, leaving killed by an id f and drove and striking the nation itself. it comes as the very fragile ceasefire is still seemingly holding between his role and has blah all the thing the details are correspond remaining. there is steve a round 11 o'clock this morning. it is writing, but instruct struck a call here in the city of seat on a southern level tony river. now you can see the remnants of the call behind me completely destroyed. we know that there are a number of casualties according to some media. one of the people that was killed in the vehicle was a senior. if they go from how my see how the city of resistance organization is. well, it appears to be escalating aggression that were being
2:18 am
a number of full names on a tax among assessments in the south. our, this is just a day before the end of the extension of the c 5 agreement runs out on tuesday of february, the 18th, and that's due. does it pay to be an officer in those hostilities we were on the ground yesterday on sunday? the liberties of hoola is waiting for his 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 is why the policies refuse to allow it to be with cupboards. that was an appeal form. the authorities for unit full on the international red cross to help with the recovery of that body. now as we understand on monday morning, the 40 has now be recovered. the people that were held hostage,
2:19 am
they have also be released by the big question is whether is well, will actually withdrawal its full season. so all eyes really or on a choose i to see whether it is well at the said i agreement with the withdrawal, the full states policies, the liberties government said by president joseph power, will they be assisted? must leave by that deadline, the committee, the overseas, the implementation will issue statement last week saying, so they expect to as well will leave. the big question is, is what remains? what happens next? this is steve sweeney for all to sit on southern evidence. this past monday mocked at the grim milestone a 500 day. you said time us typed israel in october 2023. a rallies were staged across the country, demonstrated demanding the hostages still held in gaza. and not for the a motion is running high here at television, hostages,

2:22 am
to take form. and so it needs to happen while, as you can hear, lots of manager and frustration in the meanwhile is real. security cabinets meet monday evening to discuss the 3 of the gas the sci fi deal. this is one of the remaining hostages, dad, and alive are supposed to be returned. and the 2nd phase for phase v is also meant to signal the end of the war or something. benjamin netanyahu has resist that fear in backlash from his fall. right. coalition partners, especially the finance minister smoker, who has, threatens earlier to raise the government and leave the call. listen if the war doesn't with you. but it's washington calling the shots right now for the in terms of the lease and who insisted over the returns. but the 2nd phase is salute, click go into full taishan and the strong ones to save fruit on mondays and is really the negation is due to lead to con road to negotiate the tires with well allowance for continuing to time. yeah. who is making strong warning to have mosque
