the, the, the gaza states fire could be in jeopardy, a med outrage in israel over the box. the return of the hostages bought it, of that as the idea of steps up at the salts on the west bank. after 3 mc buses exploded. they're telling me in what the as well as appalling a suspected terror attack. the white house says it's disappointed with you, cranes, later as he refuses to pursue washington caps apiece and even insults president. i was personally very upset because we had a conversation with president zelinski and he said, sure, we want to do this deal. i read 2 days later that someone's gets 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. and as the us pushes for ukraine to

finally pull the elections with 1st suspended by zalinski, last year, we looked at who could replace the increasingly unpopular leader, the your watching r t international live in moscow. i'm rachel ruble. recovering the top new stories from around the world. the gaza ceasefire could be on the line after israel accuse to mos of handing over the body of an i'm identified a person instead of a hostage. the militant group claims there was a mix up as a result of multiple remains being pulled from the rubble after an idea of the air strike. earlier benjamin netanyahu warned of retaliation from reaching the agreement to return hostages, who have dive since october 2023. i don't what do you find, vincy? so we will work with determination to bring sherry bus home together with old off

hostages, both living and dead, and ensure that homos pays the full price for this cru, malicious violation of the agreement. so our 2 political correspondent, jaeger picking up, joins me now from the saudi capital gig, or this is obviously quite upsetting story that sparked outraged in israel. what details can you tell us a whole range so it's quite upsetting. indeed. yesterday, how much released the bodies are for is really victims to the countries of tories, including those of 2 children and their mother. and now is rarely forensic said that they couldn't confirm her identity, obviously, sparking outrage. you've just listened to the countries prime minister, who said that how much will pay for this. the young sick, 3 general said that the public display of bodies in coffins is disrespectful and degrading, which goes against international laws. washington issued a stock wanting to hum us, and these rarely finance minister is now calling for an immediate continuation of

the military operations in gaza, hosting and social media that he thinks from us. these are the ceasefire agreements . israel's weakness now how mos on his behalf says that the reason why is really forensics couldn't confirm the identity of that woman is because there was an he's really s rake on the building where she was held and listen to this. her remains could have gotten mixed up with the remains of other victims at the same time how mazda is accusing israel of a stalling with the 2nd phase of the ceasefire agreement, using internationally banned weapons against civilians and has called on the international community to investigate the war crimes by the id f in gaza. now in a separate incident, is rarely authorities now have arrested at least 3 suspects, including one jewish is really in relation to the explosions of 3 buses last night in one of tel aviv suburbs. thankfully, they were empty at the time like now benjamin netanyahu, the prime minister, and the defense minister say that they are immediately intensifying the military

operations in the west bank because base respect, that's where the organizers of those attacks 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 can comp and all the refugee camps and u. d. 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 axes. residents who give shelter to terror will pay a heavy price. so yet another escalation of violence in this troubled region, and it comes as the arab leaders have gathered fear and re add to come up with a counter proposal on guys, a counseling donald trump's plan, who earlier said that the united states will take over the gaza strip evict all the palestinians to neighboring countries and rebuild it. obviously something

completely unacceptable in the air of world, especially in those and neighboring countries where during which include egypt and jordan. so it's quite interesting to see what a counter offer they'll be able to come up with here in saudi arabia. are 2 political, corresponding eager pisca. now, reporting for us from re ideas are thank you for the white house is demanding gratitude and respect from vladimir zalinski after he delivered some unflattering remarks about president from us national security advisor mike waltz is not missing his words. 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 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. a r t correspondence, anastasio blah denies here in the studio. now for more on this, on the start, see, is quite the change from when biden was president and was seemed to have quite a good relationship with zelinski and take us through why zalinski has fallen out of favor with the white house. well, you know, just seems to be going down from by to, was force and ask him for ukraine in general. because as we can see in the most recent trump speech, she doesn't even mentions that lensky to, and he leaves that to his subordinates. and you know, trump, ukraine, and boy actually travel to cuba yesterday. but the conference that was supposed to take place off to kellogg and zalesky match was actually canceled according to to you if it was cancelled at america's request. and you knew, well, this is just one more thing that indicates the relations between kim washington

onto good anymore. and that things are not going down. well i the, and it seems like the best mitchell common ground, if any, between washington and kids. and one of those reasons why this could all be happening is because soleski has been quite rude to us officials and hasn't been treating the well well, i'm up here review actually pointed that out as well. i think president trump is very upset, present zelinski, and i and some case and rightfully so. look, number one, joe biden had frustration. so as a landscape, people shouldn't forget it. their newspaper articles out there about how he cursed adam and a phone call, because zalinski 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 thing is, frankly, i was personally very upset because we had a conversation with president zelinski, the vice president and i, the 23 of us. and we discussed this issue about the mineral rights and we explained to them. but we want to be in joint venture 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 and an important economic endeavor, we get to get paid back some of the money, the tax payers have given close to $200000000000.00 and, and it also, and 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 someone's gets 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 it. so mixed messages to say the least from zillow's can tell us more about this mineral deal that's really causing so much tension between calvin washington while the minerals deal with that mockery being just touched upon it. what's very important for washington, because it would allow us to buy a to sorry, to invest in ukraine's minerals in exchange for further rate on either trump even sent his treasury secretary to key of older tom claims that he wasn't treat to that

well. and because he was supposed to sign an agreement and actually came back empty handed and that's according to trump. and it was january, no, only welcomed, even stating that the landscape was unable to meet him for the following reasons. here's the thing, we don't get our money back and we tell them that the deal is we do something more or less and it struck best. it actually went there and you were sleeping and unavailable to meet. and we traveled many hours on the train, which today they were talking about the secretariat, he was there to get a document signed. and when he came back and they wouldn't sign the document. so why can't zalinski just sign an agreement with us? and that's the interesting part where they're all speculations in ukrainian side of

ground channels, although we cannot independently confirmed them. but just a month ago, so lensky was bragging about signing at $180.00 a corporation in fremont with the u. k. a. and apparently it had a secret part in it. and how do we know about this wells and as to what they've been about to himself? a visit for him yet? i mean, use the tiny bit. there was a visit of the british prime minister to the signing of the 100 year partnership agreement. maybe this is a fundamentally new format of relations. the closest relations are now between ukraine and britain. there is also a secure secret part of the agreement with everything that really adds to our resilience and the opportunity to develop somebody with us. so if this turns out to be true, it would severely complicate the situation. meaning that if the lensky wanted to sign a similar agreement, that would mean all the resources have already been sold out. well, i can only imagine how trump would react to that, or to use uh, necessity of

a lot nice stuff. so yeah, thank you. well, hon. on the hills of traumas, criticism u. k. politicians that sprang to zalinski is defense. first of mine was forest johnson, the man who was instrumental in the railing, the previous russian ukraine peace process, and april 2022. of course, a country undergoing a violent invasion should not be staging elections. there was no general election in the u. k. 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, us get taylor got reaction from workers at party of britain later. george galloway . a start was not exactly accurate. britain held 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 brit during the 2nd world war. in fact, they were brought into the gum. unless when critics of the government like an iron bevan were on their feet every day, attacking the way in which the war was being push you. now, the britain, the arrest, the editors, the proprietors, all newspapers, they didn't disappear, of their opponents. they didn't put their opponents on the house arrest 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 was in the history. so they're not big and totally accurate here, but the real reason dot zelinski can have the lectures is that he as usually have

the most important to that. so is sort of to most of it's now there was a live overnight that zalinski had 57 percent approval rate. but it turns out that the poll conducted over night was by his own pulling agents funded by us a id like much everything else in the 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 already coming from. he is just throwing lensky onto the faucet, least sadly. what do you make of it, or what a show? well, i think that zalinski is bound for the on the way is washing done, full of discard the prophylactics,

and discard the former puppet. so the united states, it's a grim future of the which of the relations of the dealer rating, not by the de sauce, gave up by the hour every hour and then following it very closely. one all the other ponds was the trumpet administration, or trump even himself, the vice president, j. d brands. the war of words is heating up funds. you can really have a war of words with someone who pays for you who keeps your own whom you are completely dependent or that's what the landscape is doing. it's a kind of death which i know they have stumbled upon a story that was of great importance to me for some years, which was the montgomery in uh you come in in presence of a, 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 the land scan, the be well advised to jump ship brands make for tel aviv jose, i presume his destination of choice as quickly as possible to the british yapping dog. not quite sure why, why maybe a car d uh is the largest boys in the landscape is uh uh, fe bought, 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 americans. those that used to match with me on the, on the a nuclear armada 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 leave me. i'll remember it for ever. and i felt i was in some kind of dream, looks like zalinski is on borrowed time, and he have with after time called him a dictator with only 4 percent approval on washington. once you're trying to finally hold elections that met zalinski himself suspended last year. are tease marina customer about looks into who are the possible contenders for kids at the top spot, it was inevitable. the clock had been checking for the landscape for a long time now. in fact, his time expired 9 months ago. but now that his biggest donor 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 of elections is low in the real ukrainian falls are. and how can you be?

hi, with us, every city is being demolished. charge of the i, somebody said, illinois falls 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 might have fallen in light. of course. in the west, i is only so let's get has going from time magazines, person of the year in 2022 to the biggest loser of 2025. it seems being sidelines and the good lords when it comes to big decisions about our country. he's clearly not friends 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. now, while experts debates whether it's allotted school will be ousted internally or externally, all those 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 the larry, is it lose me? who is currently serving as a claims ambassador to the u. k. to should be police and that sort of thing. now, 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 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 is armed forces from 2021 all the way up to february 2024. in fact, ukrainians trust him a lot more than the current leader. just look at these numbers. so even rumors that his popularity was one of the reasons that likes to removed him from the top military job and send him to the u. k. that's. and because it literally was open about the fact that the war has 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 showed 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 packing. there was another survey around this honda, the landscape presidency was expiring and it shows if elections were held, then zillow usually will get 41 percent of the votes and the 1st round and 67.5 percent in a runoff. 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. the new crane 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 and 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 once, but the americans won't allow it. so now the authorities are orchestrating everything to eliminate the opponents sneak back into power and destroyed democracy, freedom and the 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 pers ankle 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 parliaments that all the charges against the bar shank go 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 safe to say that trump doesn't care. now moving on to the 4th candidate by popularity demitria rising cost, 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 in parliament including what does it let us get himself saw him lose that job and of their friendship? they sure will know besides what is who they say they will follow the constitution will 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. there is not freedom of speech. i mean the several channels show what's right and honest. the demo deal is i'd say, where is the de mobilization you promised 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, 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 military 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 she was even imprisoned. but came out flooding, but still fail. so when people's hearts we are, of course, talking about julia tymoshenko, she was 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

a high $180000000.00 back in 2011, she claimed that it was all politically motivated, of course, which seems to be upfront, and they knew craney and politics for 2 and a half years later she came out in a wheelchair right on time for the my dine to and went straight onto kia of independence square, so it's here for the protesters. the use of the, 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 don, who died on my don, our heroes for the ages. they are our liberators. the following day, she was already up and running into the arms of the us ambassador and the easy representative in ukraine, 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, tried to make her dream and probably their dream come through this time. she 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 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. my colleague don quarter discuss the prospects of it keeps top job with andre intelligent. go use the former senior form policy advisor to the 1st deputy ukrainian prime minister and former 3rd, the secretary at ukraine's embassy in the us. and so actually has no credibility whatsoever. he's the president, and the relationship between the bad states are falling apart. and that's what i'm

talking to understand. i get think understood that so many tools to confirm that he cannot trust the key words he wants to think sees the back. but the global is that the state, that's why he's fighting washington. that's what the find. the pressure, the guy said he was never backed up by his bike bite and was just the picture he was backed up with the deep stage, new in splintering sorrows whatsoever. the usa, he was a c i. and that's why he thinks he has the power to go against the asking president, because he, you have about support. and so it's a so called your peers. but he doesn't understand that is really following the car . and he cannot, as i said, by the hand and spinning the well, that is gonna vary from today until i see a basically the, the, the support from united states is already probably in sort of stuff. and also at some point in some point, it's going to stop in the near future. and definitely, you know, the personal, donald trump, knowing his surrounding working was there, did you read it before?

but he was always seeing his around a matter that just because what he did to, to, to him, to trump personally. but he also what he did to what do i do to essentially as it's a process already because stopped before he did. and that's why he's not a statesman and he has no respect from today's administration launched, you know, talking about and today people are samples. i'll see if he's a big theater and the legal precedent. yeah, there's support some, some radicals, but that's not enough for him to become the president. who else do you think could be a potential contender for ukraine? stop position these elections have to happen. but the free today is facing a situation where there's the position id there is locally or opposition within the frame. paul circles here, everybody for shay go see the of the west of and the global is out of storage who's trying to become the president. so he is be financed by surgery. know what to do, who's a public viewable. so there's no way out there just a glitch. so he's a german citizen. and basically he control the propositional to you, you know,

he's also walking once the west right directly. so, so much space also is almost me there. all topics are going to try to continue the 4th. they're going to try to speak to writing selections, come to power and undermine this piece of locations between the, the present and essays, and the president of russia. the reference size, but the book station, the table and the situation where maybe you put a temporary government together with appointment with the washington, but was leaves the train them to new elections. and the process works depending on how the government and the future or how the position involved was the have security groceries for the position that i can come in. so who is a problem right now? not any brain because a lot of the more to put to prison or have to sleep brain. and while they have to, they have no chance of becoming a ready for these elections. but there's a lot of situations where a lot of problems happen within this election process,

but the, the selection needs to happen one way or another. well, that's a look at the top stories we're covering here on our t international. 3 more boston visit our website, r t dot com. the, [000:00:00;00]

the, the russian states never is as tight as i'm one of the most sense community best. most all sense and the in the system must be the one else calls question about this, even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin media mission, the state on rush has proved inc. s r t spoke back, keeping our video agency roughly all the band on youtube tv services for the question, did you say steven twist,

which is the, the despite the shelling children here are given special attention the life near the front, 10 habits upsides and this has been able to say and then what do you get ordering your bullying, beverly and you need to know what it says you, cuz i see any by the government. at any point, the boat is simply shafting the hands of the read for you is a bit with we do appreciate the
