the, the, the president trump has run out of patience with the landscape as the us president says, key f as back tracking on a massive resource deal with why you get sick of it. you just get sick of it. and i've had it. you're now looking at live pictures from gaza. i'm off is expected to hand over 6 is rarely hostages. in return for 602 palestinian prisoners under the terms of a fragile peace. rushed as the top diplomat, hales the rising global influence of the g. 20 after the groups. foreign ministers meet the johannesburg, the
2:01 am
good morning to you from moscow. russia, you're watching r t international. i am your host, donald porter. our top story, donald trump says he's sick and tired of vladimir lensky is attempts to back out of a resource extraction deal is already signed it with or agreed it with uh, washington. and according to the us, president key of, oh is america big time? and it's got to start making payments. so we're going to is assign a dealer. there's going to be a lot of problems with them. so we're going to sign a deal to get security because we have to do that. we're spending our treasure, i've been watching him negotiate with no card says no cards add, you get sick of it. you just get sick of it and i've had it. and he then made a deal with us for rivers and savings and who knows what rivers is worth? so you know, but at least it's something and who knows what else who is, who knows?
2:02 am
they even have it. but we made a deal with the river and the secretary of treasury, a very good guy actually went there and they couldn't even come close to get a good deal then. and frankly, i wish he didn't go to the waste all of his time like that. but they couldn't get close, they met. right. and then what they wanted to get in close is a was unable to meet them again. but so, so just of wasted trip. indeed, jewish trip to i didn't like it that he was doing it because you know, he's a good man. i didn't want him to be put himself under danger because that a feeling something like that would happen. at any rate, it looks like washington is late to the party since london got there. first, the british government apparently managed to secure exclusive rights to ukraine's resources just days before donald trump took office. are these marina costs, or if i dig deeper into the story, it is clear that the u. k. has become very passionate about the ukrainian causal of
2:03 am
a sudden, especially the last couple of months, even as a peace deal seems within reach. london is determined for ukraine to keep going by using lies, brain washing floods and even tiers of support from the european union. here's a small reminder. you know, that the united kingdom continues to be your full most partner. we continue to work alongside you. we continue to support you to the max and as you fight to surrender war for anything to work, it has to have your p ends in ukraine is part of it because the premiums and europeans are the ones to meet so same samantha did. here in europe, so without does that any d wouldn't just work very grateful to all of those european politicians that spoke out and read from the values and principles said they are defending,
2:04 am
no one did this better than presidency center. so lensky lets me conclude, and this becomes difficult, the last couple weeks of being in tens. and all this was proceeded by another strange moments felt weird landmark agreements between london and kids, talking about on breakable bonds, billions of a, then lots of promises museum for him. you know, mean use the tiny bit, but there was a visit to the british prime minister, 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. what if there is also a secure secret part of the agreement? christy. everything that really adds to our resilience and the opportunity to develop some had more energy cooperation as the agreement stage of right here. it's
2:05 am
also summative. so u k, as a preferred partner for ukraine's energy sector critical minerals strategy and green steel production. and there's more now look at this for supporting developments over ukrainian critical mental roll strategy and necessary regulatory structures required to support the maximize ation of benefits from ukraine's natural resources as well. isn't that nice and potentially lucrative for the you? k, after all, ukraine has one of the largest mineral deposits of any do a p and country, which would explain the southern friendliness and partnership. maybe perhaps why that landmark agreements was signed before tom had a chance to get their lips relief 4 days before his inauguration. and now they get west once in or else we're telling the rain they're very valuable. where are we? why don't we put up to go in terms of a guarantee we want to guarantee one?
2:06 am
we're handing a money hand over fist. we're giving them equipment. so we're looking to do a deal with new brain where they're going to secure what we're giving them with their errors and other things. here's the thing. we don't get our money back and we tell them that the deal is we'll do something similar or less us treasury secretary scott, best friends, even travel to crane with an earlier valentine's day presence in the form of a proposal, but it wasn't very well received. here's how it all went down. and scott, this is actually what you were sleeping and unavailable for me to be traveling many hours on the train, which today we're talking about this and he was there to get
2:07 am
a document signed. and when he got there, he came back and they were just full lot of respect to the united states. and that's why i said that this document is not ready. and i said there is no word on security guarantees. we agreed that there could be something done about it, but no one knows anything. and if it isn't clear, as i said, let's write the percentages i am defending ukraine. i can sell our state, you will write some guarantees, and we will write some interest in the memorandum i, i was only told 50. i said, okay, no, i'm just a decision maker and i'm not working on the details of this document. i think president trump is very upset, present zelinski and i and some cases, and rightfully so. look. number one, joe biden had frustrations was the landscape. people shouldn't forget it. there are 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
2:08 am
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, so 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 are given close to $200000000000.00. 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. it makes all the sense in the world. the only thing is i need to run it through my legislative process for let's say a separate scope there 1st and now is a lot of skis and a bit of a pickle she has from calling him a dick's aid or without elections has ruined his country. and perhaps sold it off after all, but so those who are unable to provide any security guard sees, even if they tried, of staff complements in the boat loads. the prime minister expressed his support
2:09 am
for president zalinski 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. this was amends, east country, and that is country. and still does. he was elect seats. he's the like to lead to ukraine and he's done what winston churchill in britain and 2nd will. and boris, jonathan, the man who just have to button and make sure the conflict kept going 3 years ago, what a deal was on the table. when do we, europeans going to stop being scandalized about donald trump and stopped helping him to end this war. that's as a car in for it as prime minister is even willing to send his own troops and per pet consider committing, purchased forces on the ground. alongside up is if there is a last in piece agreement, but the must be
2:10 am
a us back stop. because i us security guards, it is the only way to effectively, to, to russia from attack can you create a good. but as you can see, even here, the minutes that us involvement is necessary, which won't happen if they don't get their minerals. so now the question remains, are the minerals there for the taking or have they already been sold? so ukraine's new bus friends which could become the landscape final mistake. speaking to us from key of senior research editor at outcome modeling analysis, john complex as the lensky is in trouble on more than just one front. what we've seen with, with the government of ukraine is, is they're basically selling things multiple times and also trying to sell things whose value is unknown, te, set the stage for president trump, believing that presence of landscape could deliver. and that was, you know,
2:11 am
that was a mistake and, and i think now they're trying to correct it. but now president trump has, in is in his taste buds, this 500000000000 figure president trump the present list soleski are arguing over a potential pile of, of gold. weird. there's no way to know what it's true value is not withstanding wherever it is within the internationally recognized territory of ukraine, but how to get it. and is it going to be needed tomorrow in the way it's needed today? so i'm, i'm going to expect that president trump is going to be moved off of this at some point to something else that he perceives is a, is an ability to get a pay back that would go to gaza. where how boss is preparing to release 6 is really hostages in the final swap,
2:12 am
a b c spires. first phase. you can see live pictures behind me on the screen of that events that's taking place right now. and exchange $602.00 palestinians are to be set free from israeli jails, and the prisoner swap comes just a day after a mix up saw him aust, return the body of a gauze and woman instead of a slain hostage. the apparent mistake has since been corrected. joining us now from the west bank is archie middle east bureau chief marie if an option of maria locals in that part of the palestinian territory are now looking forward, of course to embracing their compatriots due to the uh, due to be released later today. can you take us through the situation at the moment of the yeah, good morning to you engage a prisoner exchange between israel add him as kicks off at this very moment, both sides set to play their part in ground footage chose preparations complete and
2:13 am
the red cross cars are already in gauze, off to more than $500.00 days in contingencies. relays any a coin on that event, carrots on their shim tubs, and todd is show not sweat to return home and stuff, and they also expect him to be released. i've met him in the store and he's thomas so yet who have been held in garza for over a decade for 16 months. as we covered this war, we followed the story of all matter then care to his grandmother, holocaust survivor told us that these months of waiting has been harder than anything she has every deal. we also reported on mondays tue and is really of f o p and origins who due to a mental disorder mistakenly crossed in 2000 in 2014 and was never seen again until from us. we need a video last t approving. he was alive. this latest exchanging div comes on the extreme tension on thursday for the 1st time since the cx 5 began. these were received the remains
2:14 am
of hostages. we did not survive the moment was devastating. hug broken, and then took an even dark and turn among them were the bodies of 2 young children . tragic symbols of lift over several attacks. and after the forensic examinations, israel accused for mazda, of murdering them with bare hands, a direct contradiction to the masses. claim that they were killed by 3 years tribes . mazda was also supposed to return the body of the mother, but israel announced the remains they received belongs to another and $25000.00 woman. the response was swift and furious from it. as soon to the, i hope use her mazda violating the deal, and about it will pay the highest price. her mouse has no, without the possibility of a mistake from his investigation, while we have torment its commitments to the agreement. and so now is really a for, to have chosen not to disrupt the exchange. and here we are with missing the 8th wave, all the exchanges between israel and him. at this time,
2:15 am
the release will take place at 2 locations inside garza, for the 1st time. one of them is rough near the diction who will do once a densely populated area that has to be in a closer point of intense folly thing. the 2nd location is in the se roth or refugee camping central gaza, where the audio has never conducted broad maneuvers here in harm to hostages. it was there last summer that the rescue operation of these read the army took place of free who is really captives including one with russian citizenship. as in previous exchanges, the freed hostages will 1st be handed over to the international red cross. we see their vehicles now on the ground already then to the idea again inside garza, which will transport them to his reading territory and they, they will be reunited with their families and ongoing medical evaluations in return is really set to release 802 palestinian prisoners, almost half a day, more than half were the obtains after the 7 and will be sent back to gaza,
2:16 am
where they are originally from 200 women and miners from jobs are released in exchange for the bodies of hostages. on thursday, the least also includes 51 prisoners serving life sentences, 59 with long prism turns, and 47 who had previously been freed in the 2011 prison, a swap. but were we arrested later? additionally, 108 prisoners will be deported to egypt with some expected to be transferred as to where among the most high profile names is nearly buddy booty. why don't the longer serve in palestinian prisoners, 1st convicted in 1978 from northern it is really the bus driver he was released during that when the 11 swaps deal. but later we are arrested for violates. and his release conditions also on the lease belong to her name. citizens to re live terms for douglas, 2015 attack in jerusalem. and kelly is a buddy. i will call me convicted of the 2019 murder when his re, american citizen,
2:17 am
the release of these prisoners has already few tensions from these really side. the idea of has been deployed across the west bank, including here in ramallah, where we are right now to prevent disturbances and celebrations in the past few hours is really forces have broken up public gatherings in dissipation, of potential unrest. and we'll just look at the exchange unfolding right now, all eyes on what comes next. the 1st phase of the agreement is sent to end next week. and 2nd, to lose talks, a reading delayed, significantly have reviewed finally, and as well as the monday, the, the immediate release of 22 living hostages. the u. s. has said a 2 week deadline for a deal, but israel repeatedly warns it is ready to review military operations. and guys, if mazda is not to comply, will disagreement lay the groundwork for more hostages releases, and perhaps of an end to the war. a will receive renewed hostilities. take center
2:18 am
stage is too early to say. we have to wait and see how we can falls back to alright . our to middle east bureau chief maria of an ocean. and thanks a lot for bringing us those details of the d. 20 is a prime platform for solving the most depressing issues of the global south. that's according to russia. served a live, rob, who's been sitting down with other top diplomats of the group for talks in south africa, or t correspondent and olive oil cooling. yep. is there with the full details on the 2nd day of the duty to foreign ministers meeting angel had his red russian foreign affairs minister save a lot for on describe the results off the meeting as positive according to him. important to release the reach to the minister know to the screen sitting off the rollout inside was on duty for the global south and even for the gold at lots from the minister statement. it was clear that the evolution of the group of 20
2:19 am
continues to train detroit was a multiple in the system international relations and increasing the economy into dependence. and also got a sense that such a system requires global governance independent is near to of diplomacy. and of course that's also coming from what he said earlier about neo colonial practices. i'm fly fishing and politics, the economy, and even the social areas would be really if you mind you can be as we turn our colleagues attention to very significant data, especially because it's marked in the year of africa's chairmanship of g 20 to that just the 65 year anniversary of the un declaration on the granting of independence to colonial countries and people's ignorance that on our country. back then soviet union played the leading role in adopting that historic documents that despite success achieve since by the countries of the global cell which were liberated from the yoke of exploitation. the problem has not been resolved completely. first of
2:20 am
all, there are still 17 non self governing territories across the world. colonial dependence has been mostly replaced by neo colonialism. former metric poles in western transnational corporations have monopolized the markets and supply chains and use advantages they have to because of that to drain resources and raw materials from asian, african in the latin american countries. they've been produced, added value in their own facilities, making maximum profits from the whole process. this is unacceptable in the 21st century. and that does not mean mr. olsen notes as that to the global economy is distinguished by on equal growth of military spending. bad with all the conflicts that are happening around the world, you can only imagine how much of a problem that really is a for teetering to me business. nobody kind of because it is the global economy is characterized by the disproportionate growth of military spending in assessment by western specialist says it amounts to $2.00 trillion dollars per year. and so
2:21 am
lensky is where gm is. of course, a flagrant example. it absorbs or did absorb military aid in the amount of hundreds of billions dollars that could have been spent on critically important development programs across the globe. so, 1st and foremost in africa, by the way, the international monetary fund and the world bank are setting records in aiding the zalinski regime, giving loans and credit succeeding those given to african and the other developing countries by many times put all of that. so the minister says the modern world is becoming more rather being transformed drastically and becoming truly multiple of the ukraine complex was arguably the biggest item on the agenda for discussion. tell me more, tell us more about what la problem said the concept of the united states relations among subjects discussed between the top to max on the meeting sidelines. even though the minister says you've opened nations and the allies would not particularly be happy about the tools between russia and the united states. but the
2:22 am
good thing is that a number of g 3 to countries have expressed support to the if it's dedicated to peace, including the recent consensus reach between the united states and russia, which i'm not even saying a window for peace is opening on the world. but happy to listen to what minister levitt office has had to say about that. the sheep up with previous attempts by the west to ukraine eyes the agenda of g 20. we're torpedoed by the rest of the group. members. if you look at the final documents, when all the g 20 members finally agreed to include a short text on geo political issues, you will not find anything in them that could be rejected by the russian side. the g 20 group as a whole. if we're talking about the structures that play a certain role in the international economic relations retains the role of a platform for dialogue between the old and new centers of power. and we spoke in favor of maintaining the economic profile of this association as it was supposed
2:23 am
and agreed upon at the very beginning of its creation in 2008 without politicizing the agenda, as our western colleagues have been trying to do in recent years. these attempts have always been unsuccessful, but they take a lot of strength and nerves from the other participants. and because why should i be not to? the states have agreed to stop working towards in the with the conflict which ukraine and improving their own diplomatic and economy ties. that's the minister says, recent fee that has been inflammation. that has leads menu to make conclusions about russia and the united states in terms of businesses and even partnerships. but he has said to rick a straight, lots of these talks mean for most schools, the talks between the united states and joshua, of course, of the minister also made a very important to know about sanctions. for sydney, we didn't really recently. there have been reports that a number of western companies are ready to return and resume their business in russia. i think our economic block reacted very correctly. and the core of this
2:24 am
reaction is that over the years of hybrid warfare, including a legal sanctions. we have done a lot to give a powerful impetus to the development of our own industries in which, until recently, we were seriously dependent on the united states. the european union with japan and so on us in this new environment has made it possible to realize how useful it is for our economy. mastering its own technologies, which in general, in some cases, already surpassed their western counter parts. this is probably the same logic that should be followed when we're talking about the return of western companies to russia. they should not be discouraged from doing so. what should only be allowed to return into those industries that will not post risk to our economy. in case someone gets up on the wrong side of bed again. and of course the re sent you is diplomatic blitz on ukraine has sent you crane and his key allies scrambling to his
2:25 am
show a seats at the table. and the concerns is that washington and moscow could press the head with a deal that won't be really favorable to them. but the minister has made it clear that historical experience has shown that it is impossible to independence to cope with common challenges such as these on your own. and this is why the 22 and 2 was established to cope with such challenges at the liberal walk national leaders as was done this week. that's the way the news goes for this hour, but stick around for more in just about 30 minutes because there's more coming your way here on our to international the
2:26 am
if you think about russia, what is your mind to picture the landscape open up before your eyes the what one does, you imagine the, the veto, scott starts the journey, the, the, you ready to come along the course it near wash. lots of stuff is a lot going out of the key at the board. she must not submit a sports and she goes and it was it was you the story enforcing
2:27 am
a or studio to see more option that this be so for ship off. we started last week and you want to do it was a school in your welski territory. so this could save the natural logos of it. so when we ship portion or the forwarded me, it was about a football. i still knew about chavo in gold and on my side as close i, you was a category stores board us at ocean and continued to go out and i get bully now. probably not sure. the south be switched to see about slope on soccer. i think the south will so comfortable, people are both them just got a smith gosh careful which was coming out on the bus, which is still going to me. so i'm on the policy. i'm just, i'm a got the can you go, are you still not allowed to talk about some level you get to talk about your dorski a whole bunch bundle of the circle comfortable the summer. but on the,
2:28 am
on the desktop i dropped off some of the stuff. some of the many of us again is of the solution. if i'm supposed to have that us do i usually to hans google bush just simple boys names. i left them with me and i will explain it to you about this book when they fitted curious to us like to me, it was felt i was wondering is that you live in the do what? just anything you could with business name or general store when when let's, let's say stuff. game is a couple of them really fast. just interest me at my level. i need you to play video. there's many that'd be the what the course i'm, i'm ok. so look of me, what do i suggest we use most people are going to talk to somebody
2:29 am
because of the the see was more snow when you're the i'm actually 100 times in. welcome to going undergrad, broke of single around the world from the us of a middle east that hosted peace talks the good finally in the nature of proxy war and russia through ukraine and of a world war 3. donald trump said afterwards that ukraine should never have started the war. predictably the response from european the leads ahead of elections in its most powerful economy. germany tomorrow has been panic. chaos and the re evaluation
2:30 am
of this stages says that trapeze of washington. since the end of the 2nd world war and the formation of nato, trump's vice president j. d von some, your lack of freedom to incorporate attention from european nature members at the munich security conference. so i guess some of the british prime minister and persecutor of julian assange immediately proposed sending thousands of u. k. soldiers to fight for russia. this is, it was revealed, the 3 of the for the elderly and britain cannot afford to heat the homes. it has truly be nato, a reckoning with the atlantic alliance. and that's the view title of the new book by member of the you haven't been to should i can form policies, folks present for the, sorry to bug and collect alliance 7 data. and she joins me again from balance. 7, thanks so much for coming on before i even get to your book into a piece in our time. perhaps, but a real piece. uh, what happened as regards uh, francesco, been a z the you in special.
