4:00 am
the, the president, trump, is obviously very frustrated right now with presence of landscape trump is very upset. a presence of netscape prizes will excuse his country, wouldn't exist without the generosity of the united states of america. so they think the white house says it's disappointed with ukraine's liter, as he refuses to pursue washington, his path to peace and even insults president trump as the us pushes for ukraine to finally hold elections, which were suspended by the went to the last year. we look at who could possibly replace the increasingly on popular leader who claims he's still the look at the legitimate present, the plus because a cease fire could be in jeopardy as israel. it gives us a mazda of failing to hand over the body of
4:01 am
a hostage that says the idea of steps up. it's a salt on the west bank after 3 empty buses explode near, tell a b, and what the israelis, or calling a suspected terrorist. the right afternoon here in moscow, russia and you're watching r t international. i'm your host donald corder. welcome to the appropriate, our top story. the us is running out of patients with ukraine as top you white house officials slams the landscape for being completely unreasonable and his relationship with washington, us national security advisor mike waltz pointed out donald trump's frustration was the landscape behavior. the president, trump is obviously very frustrated right now with present zelinski. the fact that i that he hasn't come to the table that he hasn't been willing to take this
4:02 am
opportunity that we have offered. i think he eventually we'll get to that point and i hope so. very quickly, but present trump is as we made clear to our russian counterparts. and i want to make clear today he's focused on stop in the fighting and moving forward. and we can argue all day long about what's happened in the past. us now to take us to the story is joining us here in the studio, archie corresponding on this, but see of a large in us. so can you bring us through why the lensky is in such hot water with the white house right now? well, you know, don't, it seems like it's all going, going down from 5 to was for ukraine is we can see in the most recent speech, donald trump doesn't even mention so lensky and leaves that uh to have subordinates on trump c, praying. and we actually visited t of yes today, but the conference that was supposed to take place uh, between the legs can color color was actually come sold. and according to key, if at the request of the american side. uh, and this is just one move things that indicates that things are not going down well
4:03 am
between washington on kia and, you know, one of the reasons why this will can be happening is because of lensky has been treating american officials quite 40 in the last few days and local really actually start to like i think president trump is very upset, present zelinski and i and some case and rightfully so. look. number one, joe biden had frustrations as the landscape. people shouldn't forget it, their newspaper articles out there about how he cursed out them in a phone call because the lensky, instead of saying thank you for all your help, is immediately out there messaging what we're not doing or what he's not getting. i think the 2nd things, frankly, i was personally very upset because we had a conversation with president zalinski, the vice president and i, the 23 of us. and we discussed this issue about the mineral rights, so we explained to them. but we want to be enjoying better with you, not because we're trying to steal from your country. but because we think that's actually a security guarantee where your partner in an important economic endeavor, we get to get paid back. some of the money,
4:04 am
the tax payers have given close to $200000000000.00. and it also, now we have a vested interest in the security of ukraine and he said, sure, we want to do this deal. that makes all the sense in the world. the only thing is i need to run it through my legislative process. they have to approve it. i read 2 days later that so let's get out there saying i rejected the deal. i told them no way that we're not doing that. well, that's not what happened in that meeting, so you start to get upset by somebody. we're trying to help these guys a while. so is the last. he says one thing in private and another thing in public it some real dr. jekyll, mr. hyde behavior here. i mean, what else can you tell us about this mineral deal that's called so much tension between p of and washington. well, the minerals deal that review just touched upon from what we've just heard, was very important for washington as it would allow us to invest and ukraine's minerals in exchange for flat rate. and you know, trump actually sent his treasury secretary to ts, and according to a trauma assessment wasn't a very roomy welcome back. and he came back empty handed us,
4:05 am
he was supposed to sign and agreement with the landscape. and he was generated and will be welcomed, and according to trump, as lensky was unable to meet with him. and just let's take a lesson to the reason why, of the thing, we don't get our money back and we tell them that the deal is we do something more or less and instruct best who actually went there and said you were sleeping and unavailable for me to be traveling many hours on the train, which is today, we're talking about the secretariat. he was there to get a document. when he came back and they weren't signed the document. so it looks like the landscape is actually biting the hand that feeds it. and his frustration seems to have pushed him to the edge. he's being a well sidelines as
4:06 am
a change of pull of washington's policy towards key of uh, as us to professionals are now actually sitting back in. so let's keep putting his behavior unacceptable. there needs to be a deep appreciation for what the american people, what the american taxpayer, what president trump did in his 1st term and what we've done sense. so some of the rhetoric coming out of key, frankly, and ins, insults to president trump for unacceptable. and so you said yesterday made a lot of news, bad mouth, and trump not a good idea of it or the landscape. what's uh, what's the, what's the thought processing? well look, i mean for his own ski, his country wouldn't exist without the generosity of the united states of america. so to say thank you. and if you disagree with the president, pick up the phone and call him or call one of our great diplomats. don't go into media tour around europe. bad announcing the pros, united states. it's insulting, it's insulting to him. it's insulting to me. it's insulting to the american people . and by the way, it's stupid. all of us who knew the president would tell you that bad melting him
4:07 am
in public is not the way to get president trump to change his mind. so i think someone's can needs to have some better consultants, as you know, was see multiple times. how's the landscape on his social media especially cried from western aid. and, you know, and joe biden is administration still pump t of with more a despite everything and you know, but overall it looks like changes are the horizon and trump's administration is not willing to have a blind eye for any of this coming from kia for me. yeah, we definitely got a lot of news developments ahead of us, especially in the run up to the meeting between donald trump and vladimir putin. we still don't have a date yet, but it's no doubt going to come soon. so that's our to use on a specific load. you know, thanks a lot for bringing us the details. now hold on the hills of trump's criticism. u. k . politicians sprang to the landscape defense 1st in line was boris johnson. the man who was instrumental in derailing the previous russia ukraine peace process. in april of 2022. of course a country undergoing
4:08 am
a violent invasion should not be staging elections. there was no general election in the okay from 1935 to 1945. of course is a lend skis, ratings are not 4 percent. they are actually about the same as trumps. the prime minister expressed to support for president lensky as ukraine's democratically elected leader and said that it was perfectly reasonable to suspend the elections during war time as the u. k. did during world war 2. my colleagues saskia taylor gotten reaction from the leader of the workers party of britain. george galloway. the start was not exactly accurate. britain held a problem entry by elections throughout the 2nd world war and the the charge of government sustained loss after loss after loss. and there was no attempt to arrest the leaders of the opposition in getting the 2nd world war. in fact, they were brought into the gum unless doing good to solve the government like an
4:09 am
iron bed on what on their feet every day, attacking the way in which the war was being push, you know, the britain, the rest, the editors and proprietors, all newspapers. they didn't disappear, of their opponents, they didn't put their opponents on the house. rice as uh, as the landscape has done. but in the united states, the presidential elections throughout both wars. the elections presidential elections during the american civil war, which was one of the worst floors in the history. so they're not big and totally accurate here. but the real reason dot zelinski has have the lectures is that he of use we have the most important to that. so is sort of do most of it's now there was a live overnight that zalinski i had 57 percent approval rate. but it turns out that the poll conducted over night was by his own bowling agents funded by
4:10 am
u. s. a. i d like much, everything else in a civil society in the great. yeah, idea of that. does the landscape have more support today then he had when he was elected after the death of a 1000000 people in your grade is surely factual. so i have to ask you about trump . he's really going for us. he is just wrote and so lensky onto the faucet least sadly. what do you make of it on what a show? well, i think the zalinski is bound for the on the way is washing done, full of discard the prophylactics and discard the former puppet saw the united states. it's a grim future the which of the relations of the dealer raging not by the day sauce gave up by the hour every hour and i'm following it very closely. one,
4:11 am
all the other punks was the trumpet ministration, or trump even himself. the vice president, j. d. brands the war warrants. ready is heating up funds. you can really have a war of words with someone who pays for you, who keeps you on whom you are completely dependent for. that's what the landscape is doing. it's a kind of death which, you know, they have stumbled upon a story that was of great importance to me for some years. which was the mob dog in you come in in prison. one of our correspondents, gonzalieras an american journalist, not both the president and he alone must, are fighting on all cylinders on the show. they actually know our building our case against us elated scan the be well advised to jump ship and make for tel aviv jose. i presume his destination of choice as quickly as possible to the british
4:12 am
yapping dog. not quite sure why. why maybe a car d uh is the largest boys in the landscape is uh uh, fe 5, but uh, i suspect will be the last. i think he just so real that the americans are fighting for peace and the europeans are demanding more war. somebody like me a life long or portland, of the united states of america is now being called through american. those that used to march with me on the, as the a nuclear march is the anti war marches. they are on the side of the european governments that are yapping for more war. the saudi arabian experience will never lead me. i remember it for ever. and i felt i was in some kind of dream. looks like zalinski is on borrowed time and key as after trumps calls him
4:13 am
a dictator with only 4 percent approval. washington wants to crane to finally hold elections beds. lensky himself suspended last year. but our teeth were, you know, costs are of a looks into who the possible contenders are for kids top spot, it was inevitable. the clock had been taken for the landscape for a long time. now. in fact, his time expired 9 months ago. but now that his biggest owner is calling him out, it seems that his faith is pretty much sealed, no matter how many tears are set over it in europe. to refuse is evolutions, is low in the real ukrainian falls. i mean, how can you be hi, with us. every city is being demolished. charge of the i. somebody said, oh noise, paul's a good. give me a break. a dictator with that elections. so lensky better move fast, or he's not going to have a country left. gotta move, gotta move fast. oh wow. that mighty have fallen in light, of course and the west eyes only. so let's get has going from time magazine. person
4:14 am
of the year in 2022, to the biggest loser of 20. 25. it seems being sidelines and the lords when it comes to big decisions about our country. he's clearly not fits or authorized to run anymore. back in 2022. it was a clear majority 72 percent through the floor through the floor and 20 by 2024. just 48 percent of americans say that they're confident that so let's people do the right thing when it comes to world affairs. while experts debates, whether it's allotted skill will be ousted internally or externally, all there's wonder who could replace them. and here are the candidates. according to the latest survey in ukraine, the landscape isn't even though you were politician. it's but larry is a lose me. who is currently serving as ukraine's ambassador to the u. k. to show the police and the typical and in order to answer this question, let's 1st get the conditions under which such a question would be absolutely appropriate. these conditions will come then i as
4:15 am
a person who is in public service and works directly for the state, will be ready to answer such a question. for now, we have only one task to survive and preserve our country. people are familiar with him as he left the country's armed forces from 2021 all the way up to fair birby. it's wednesday, it's wednesday $4.00 and $5.00 ukrainians. trust him a lot more. then there are a current leader. just look at these numbers. will even rumors that his popularity was one of the reasons the last to removed him from the top military job and send him to the u. k. that and because illusion it was open about the fact that the war had reached the stalemate. and the breakthrough was on the likely just like in the 1st world war, we have reached the level of technology that puts us into a stalemate. there will most likely be no deep and beautiful breakthrough showing the time is passed. people are tired regardless of their status, and this is understandable, but this is not a stalemate. i emphasize this once again. i says that it was and it was sent
4:16 am
packing. there was another survey around the time that the landscape of presidency was expiring and it showed if elections were held, then zillow usually would get 41 percent of the votes and the 1st round and 67.5 percent in a ronald. and it's a similar picture now a year later with 72 percent of ukrainians, trusting him rather than their current leader who got 49 percent. it's the 3rd most popular politician then ukraine is another familiar face. former president petro power assigned co, the man who took over after the west, my bank, who in 2014, and has been dreaming about ukraine joining the you ever since. this is another case of how the mighty have fallen as he's been embroiled in over a 100 criminal investigations in the last few years ranging from tax fraud and abuse of power to state prison. he believes it's all a ploy to get rid of him. the dream of those in power is to hold all elections at
4:17 am
once, but the americans won't allow it. so now the authorities are orchestrating everything to eliminate opponents sneak back into power and destroyed democracy, freedom and electoral transparency because they are afraid to lose power. oh, the irony, all that all, and they seems to be going around in circles if you consider that famous line from their presidential campaign debate in 2019, when lensky saw par sankoh the following. first of all, i am not your opponent. i am your verdict. that line could have a whole new meaning and now power shun co is convince start elections will be held in october of this year and his supporters are doing their best to make sure he is on the pallets, including screaming and parliament's. that all the charges against bar sango amounts to political persecution, and that's all they can do really, since they know that joe biden is no longer going to come to his rescue and it's
4:18 am
safe to say that trump doesn't care. now moving on to the 4th candidate by popularity demitria rising costs. he was a professional, political consultant who went on to leave the servants of the people party. helping us to lend skis, rise to power and health, the post of chairman of never holding the rod until 2021 very is disagreements and . * elements including what does it let us get himself so him lose that job and of their friendship. they shall know besides lucy, but they say they will follow the constitution. well, they haven't followed it before. don't follow it today and will not follow it. despite the president zalinski being a guarantor of the constitution, violations of the law happen every day. well, and there is not freedom of speech. i mean, the several channels show what's right and honest them, i believe i'd say, where is the, the mobilization, you promise to the people? it's a major problem. if the government outright lies to those protecting the country, if you don't know what you are voting for and that's a problem,
4:19 am
it doesn't absolve you of responsibility. you will be beaten later, beaten by fathers, whose 18 year old children are being mobilized to compete. and by husbands, when a woman who came through ministry service to become part of civil society is then being taken to the front line. and finally, we have the woman who is always the bridesmaid, never the bride. she has been trying for decades. it seems to us even in prison, but came out flooding, but still failed. so when people's hearts we are, of course talking about julia too much jenco. she's another one who was accused of abuse of power found guilty, and census to 7 years behind bars, as well as order to pay over. uh huh. and so it's an $80000000.00 back in 2011. she claimed that it was all politically motivated, of course, which seems to be upfront. and then you cranium politics towards her and a half years later, she came out in a wheelchair right on time for the my dine to and went straight onto the kids independence square to cheer for the protesters. the use of the,
4:20 am
when i drove into key of, i didn't recognize it. brit cars, barricades flowers, but a whole different ukraine, a ukraine of free people. you have given each of us to everyone who lives today to everyone who will live tomorrow. you have given ukraine and therefore the people who were on my done, who died on my don, our heroes for the ages. they are our liberators. the following day, she was already up and running inside the arms of the us ambassador and the easy representative of any crane who had to turn invitation to beat the ease for the policy chief to help her plan new credits, future, no doubt. and here she is again, trying to make her dream and probably their dream come through this pharmacy. susan with keys, kellogg and paris, that strong special envoy for ukraine and russia. and we don't know if they've discussed anything, but she definitely wants that the world to see this picture. it's unclear when you
4:21 am
cry and will hold its next presidential election. but one thing that is almost certain is that it will be an epic showdown with a dash of foreign spice. no doubt. in other news, the gods of ceasefire could be on the line as israel claims one of the 4 bodies returns by him oss was not who they say it was. benjamin netanyahu has warned of retaliation for an electorate breach of the agreement to return hostages, who have died since october 2023. i don't want if i'm going to see so we will work with determination to bring sherry bus home together with old or hostages. i mean, both living and dead. i didn't show that how much pays the full price for these crew, malicious violation of the agreements. we try to get more on this story. we're joined to live by our chief political correspondent. you've got you got this going off. who's joining us from the saudi capital, your, it's a distressing story that sparked a lot of outraging,

4:23 am
a cease fire saying that they're still ready to comply. but as well as finance minister following this, incidents with the bodies, he's now calling for an immediate continuation of the violence in gaza. why at the same time uh yesterday's 3 public buses in israel exploded. thankfully they were empty at the time. but now benjamin at national end, the defense minister are saying that they are immediately intensifying the military operations in the was the bank saying that the suspect that's where the organizers also those attacks on the buses are based in light of the severe terror attack attempts in the tel aviv area by palestinian terror organizations against the civilian population in israel. i instructed the idea of to increase the intensity of the counter terrorism activity and the talk around refugee camp and all the refugee camps and u. d. a and some area we will hunt down the terrorist of the bitter end and destroy the terror infrastructure in the camps used as frontline posts of the uranian evil
