the the, the come offs release is 6, is really hostages from jobs, but the whole rinse, of palestinian prisoners, also jew to be freed from is really jails on the day. they said delay all to a head on the program. donald trump again takes aim a lot of mirrors landscape, seeing the ladders of the true towards his boxers is disrespectful. not. he's been negotiating, holding no cards for years. you get sick of it, you just get sick of it. and i've had it. plus i believe your economy and i vote of no confidence for a chancellor shows that that's the back row and heading into the crucial german federal election, which takes place on some of the

from us go to the world. this is our t. my name's you don't know meal in 30 minutes of news. the news starts, right? not 6 is really hostages. how being released by her mouse and the final swap of the ship, the gals that cease fires 1st space. the captives were handed over to the red cross with more than $600.00 pablo city and set to be freed from jailed in return. but israel has reported the postpone or release ortiz, middle east correspondent and recent osh. this in the west bank with the latest are subsidized prisoners change between these related how much has taken an unexpected and very dangerous turn onto the agreement. as you notice how the student prisoners were supposed to be released. as soon as its really hostages crossed into israel from java hours ago. but now we see a delay from the reading side prisoner for these have earlier concerns to us. but

the decision to hold off came from the political leadership is really political leadership. and as of now, there is no clarity on when the release will move forward. if at all went out in ramallah, where are some of those probably seen in prisoners were expected to arrive again, hours ago ahead of their release. the idea of deployed additional forces across you will provide westbank including here to prevent mass gatherings, but neither of these restrictions know the bad weather. no hours of delay have still these people from wasting. so and much smaller numbers. many have been here since early morning, send them in the rain, then hale then snow anxiously waiting to embrace the loved ones. most of them have taken shelter from the cold inside this community center behind me. still hoping, praying for news all there is a strong and brave enough to wait outside and off has we asked to the queues in israel. also, tolling the process and calling hall and mediators to step in, say,

come to send the occupations failure to release the 7th batch of prisoners in the exchange process. on the agree date, represents a blatant violation of the agreement. we call on the mediators and guarantors of the agreement to exert pressure on the occupation to respect the agreement and implemented the provisions without procrastination. installing miscellaneous exchange, as we know ready unfolding on the extreme 10 cent on, says they receive the remains of hostages, which does not survive the 1st such cases to cease fire, begun the moment towards the states and quickly took an even sar codes for and among the remains these were 2 young children, tragic victims of the over 7 attacks and off the forensic analysis as ro concluded they were murdered with bare hands contradicted in have masses claimed that they were killed and is really, is a thing to the times with him. i was also supposed to return the body of the mother, but instead israel received the remains of an unknown guys and woman. the reaction

was swift from minister benjamin netanyahu accused him also violating the agreement on war and that it would pay the highest price. the entire bill was suddenly raised from us, quickly corrected the mistake returned in the proper volume. well, we have firm and it's commitments to the deal. as far as the pensions, there's real toes not to suspends exchange. just now we're witnessing vista land, some believe that's could be a factor in what's happening now. and this delay is israel's way to punish probably students, people for the anger and frustration, but is really had to endure before. as part of this deal is really set to free. $802.00 probably student present us with an all of them are coming to the west bank and here to ramallah, more than half will be sent back to gauze on including $200.00 women and miners release and exchange for the bodies of hostages returned earlier i had at least also includes 51 present or serve and life sentences and 59 with long stories in

terms as well refuses to allow them going back into the west bank slicing security concerns the the pull to, to countries like age only about face t form of present or is there is a real says do not have blood on the hands are being released to ramallah or to friday's jerusalem. or rather, i re faxed it to be released with a note say when and again, if earlier today that they have mazda 36 is really hostages from 3 separate locations in dallas. i reminded the captives have been held in different parts of the same place as in previous exchanges. the hostages were 1st it over to the national restaurants center, these really on there, which transforms itself into israel for reunions with their families and is really 4th is captured deeply emotional moments often more than $500.00 days. inconsistencies rate is any a core and all that invented on that a simple and have thought of showing off finally home also really were i've read

them in these 2 and he some and so yeah. who had been held in gaza attention over a decade leading just criticism for us to be really government had done little to secure a data rate before. now over the course of these war we've reported to lindsey, so it is really o s e o p. and origin who was due to a mental disorder mistakenly crossed in 202014 and was never seen again until last year. one of these, a visual pain proving he was alive, medical evaluations have confirmed that he and 5 all the hostages are in satisfactory condition. now all eyes are on when palestinians prisoners will be freed to middle. all thousands of his relays, toots, of his race, was made for gathering reading, tel aviv calling on the government to stick to its commitments and release palestinian prisoners. they fear the n a disruption might endanger the release of the cost is still held in captivity in gaza. the risk they're not ready for the most cost denied us media reports that washington was threatening to

cuts, ukraine's access to his bible star link internet services. if he ever didn't sign a deal over its minerals, it comes in with the ongoing spot between them or it can you frame with donald trump saying he's don't with loving. there's lensky is this thing for piece talks. i think that money given must be paid by the united states is given $350000000000.00 because we had a stupid in top, but it's president and administration. so we're asking for rarer than oil any the we didn't get. but we feel so stupid, 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 did made a deal with us for forever and savings. man, who knows what river is worth,

you know, but at least it's something and who knows what else who is, who knows? they even have it. but we made a deal with the river. it's 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 when he wanted to get it close is a was unable to meet him again. but the so, so just on wasted trip in dangerous trip to i didn't like it. that's who was doing it. because you know, he's a good man that it would have to be put himself under danger because that a feeling something like that would happen. but it seems like washington is late to the party with london getting there 1st. the british government, that part of the mothers to secure exclusive rights to ukraine's resources. just

days before donald trump took office ortiz marine a culture of a has been delving deeper into the story. it is clear that the you tight has become very passion. it's about that you cleaning and causal of a sudden, especially the last couple of months, even as a piece deal seems within range. one of them 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 this 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 dean here in europe, so without this the 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. no one did this better than presidency senate. 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 moment that weird landmark agreements between london and kids talking about on breakable bones. aliens of a, then lots of promises, museum premium. i mean, use the tiny bit, there was a visit to the british prime minister, the signing of the 100 year partnership agreement. 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 some has more energy at cooperation as

the agreement states right here. it's also summative. so you k as a preferred partner for ukraine's energy sector critical minerals strategy and green steel production. and there's more now look at the sports supported developments over ukranian critical minimal 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 whether you take 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 the landmark agreements was signed before tom had a chance to get there? well, actually, 4 days before his in all duration. and now i think it was once in or else we're

going to rain very valuable, rarer than we was while we put up to go in terms of a guarantee, we want to guarantee one, we're handing a money hand over fist. we're giving them equipment. so we're looking to do a deal with your 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 talk to the deal is we do something more or less us treasury secretary school and best science even travel to crate it with an early 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 the 2nd, but he was there to get a document signed. and when he got there he came back empty. they were just, i respect 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, i said, let's write the percentages. i am defending ukraine. i can't sell our state. you will write some guarantees, and we will write some interest in the memorandum 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 frustration. so as a 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 are 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. 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. that makes all the sense in the world. the only thing is i need to run it through my legislative process. well, it seems upright stopped there 1st and now is a lot of skis and a bit of a pickle she has from calling him a dick theater 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 upstairs compliments in the boat loads. the prime minister expressed his support 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 a man's in these country. and that is country. and still does. he was the lexington . he's the like to lead to ukraine. and he's done what winston churchill tate in britain, them 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 we europeans, going to stop being scandalized about donald trump and start helping him to end this war. that's as the car and further as prime minister is even willing to send his own troops fight. i'm prepared to consider committing purchase forces on the

ground, alongside up as if there was a loss to increase the agreement. but the must be a us back stop. because a us security guarantee is the only way to effectively deter russia from attack. can you create a good? but as he can see, even he admits that u. s. 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 best friend, which could become so landscape final mistake. well, despite the mirrors landscape hostility towards the mineral steel, the us treasury secretary insists the agreement will benefit ukraine scott best and also stated it was the let's game. so who proposed on american sake and the resources back in september months before the u. k. data? no, i discussed developments earlier with former director of inter governmental the 1st

for the us trade representative state go. it was the last. he was desperate. he was willing to sell to anybody who would, would keep the arms, keep the munitions going keep toward going, because once it ends his time, it is by you made it very abruptly as well as i think that was a desperation cell and, and again, won't necessarily withstand the test of time i get to my present, trump is already made it clear that the site is completely committed to going forward with nato, providing that defense supposedly not offsets, as has been being played out lately, but not necessarily funding data going forward. when the us is, you know, funding over half and you've got these countries that are failing to even do the 2 percent, much less of the 5 percent of their gdc that he's asking. yes, the us says, okay, fine. but do you want those? where is minerals where you're gonna come up with the money to keep this child's life going in a way that doesn't end up with russia taking all of your current? did mr. so lend speed off to dates to the problem and hope they just wouldn't

notice that, you know, he 1st made an offer to the us in september. then january strikes a deal with the u. k. a party for the very same birds. but we know that there's at least 2 dates that have been invited to the problem. there may be more, it reminds you a little bit about an old movie called the producers, were some guy decides you put together a, a play called spring time for. yeah, we're knowing that is going to bomb horribly. they go out, get a bunch of investors, and then it becomes like, yeah, and they're struck with okay, now how do we pay everybody when we sold 2030400 percent of the deal. and that's kind of where zalinski is, he's promised everybody every thing, and now it may be time to deliver that it's, it's david scott because that is now saying today that there is a deal. and while i hope it is, you're moving in that direction, i want to see the get the devil in the details because you know, the executive summary sounds pretty good. but when you get into the actual details, it may not be what we think it is. and again, you still got to deal with the,

the d, all of it. so let's catch up with united kingdom is the ukraine is reportedly demanding us security guarantees and exchange for the deal that would be part of the pay off, hired you for see that coming up on. is it a realistic proposal at kind of work? well, it's not putting them in nato, which is a bright red bind that i don't think the us are certainly, uh, letting me put and the rest of will agree to. but it's the u. s. as a financial interest in their rebuilding and reconstructing ukraine using some of these resources that will be paid not only to, to pay back to the hundreds of billions that have been provided so far in this conflict, but also to kind of move forward in the us as a vested interest, not just to protect ukraine and ukrainian to protect us financial interest there. i think that's, that's a good result for everybody. i think it also lays a good ground work for the us to, to restore peace and prosperity relationships with russia as well. i think one of

the worst things that we've done, it discard selection. there's a lot is that we have pushed russia and china closer together rather than keeping good relations with russia and continuing to to keep good financial military and policy relations. they are. so i think this prospect of doing something financially and investment wise with ukraine opens the door to return to good business with russia as well. steve gil, now ukraine will have no place within the u if it's membership, hahn's hungry zone interest. that was one of the main takeaways from victor or bands state of the nation address earlier. the prime minister also ruled. i'd key of chances of joining nato. why don't we have one that is the war, in fact, is not even about ukraine. and what about the territory called ukraine, which until now has been a buffer zone. a buffer state between nato and russia, being placed under the auspices of nato. why european and american liberals thought

the russians would idly watch this happen is still a mystery, but it is already clear that the experiment failed ukraine, or what remains of it will again become a buffer zone. it will not be a nato member issue. will it be a member of the european union that will be decided by the hung gary ends against the will of hungry and the hung gary ends? ukraine will never be a member of the european union. it was a little less able political as toward some o l. a stays the hon. gary and leader has always prioritize the interest of his own people, which means the future for ukraine politically remains on certain as i took those remarks more as um, as, as like as a buffers there. in other words, as part of the final circle month um, they will remain a buffer zone between russia and nato and most keep in mind or by country to the media. planes has never been a particular friend. a russia has a particular friend,

the coaches, he has always said we are members of nato. we are members of the e. u and he identifies with the sort of the west and the side of the conflict. so that's why he sees that well as a measure of stability and security for you, or will it be the creation of this buffer zone. so let me know as a ukraine will separate the lines of conflict between russia and the way. so he sees that that will remain a division in europe in the future, but is to be hoped that this division will not lead to will. and in a, just in case the ukraine will be the buffers of separating the western russia. all right, something else to tell you apologize. germany propose to go to the pools and national elections on sunday. angry seems, having witnessed on the streets of berlin with police left wing demonstrators flashing the bobbins came after officers moved in to clear the routes for

a march by supporters of the right wing alternative for germany party vfc is forecast to make significant dates across the country. this weekend, with some background on the ballots, in december jumpstart, will have shows loss the vote of confidence. after firing his finance minister from a rival political party, the coalition government thing co ops, leading to early elections. germany has reduced russian gas purchase and implemented other measures that have led to a rapid backward slide for its economy, which is now struggling to avoid recession. that's sure to be a big election issue as well. with local saying the routing coalition, those don't too little, too late. i had some good blasts didn't do anything to few decisions and above all, mostly negative ones. i am disappointed by all the parties of the routing coalition come to me a phone at 1st. i could not imagine that 3 such different parties could achieve good results together. we're not doing well right now,

and there are lots of election promises being made. whatever will be better for the citizens, the opposite will be the case. the state does not have enough money. there is always talk of making savings. so it really affects people's wallets after the election. do you have the full volume or do they have neither considered nor solved the problems of the country? i am very pessimistic. so i had hoped that friedrich merits would tackle this. but he will now take either the greens or the s p d or both with him, and nothing will change there. unfortunately, nothing will change, right? i mean what the population does not want is a left leaning co government. we will not solve the problems of migration like that . so you can know for more in europe, more in the middle east economic decline. these are very big problems and that's why we need a fresh start. when earlier, our sister, german language channels spoke with the bender, stag member klaus ernst from the empty globe list. so we're getting the act

alliance party, and then our to explicit. he raised some key issues, stuff. the fast approaching vote has put and sharp focus. the eastern city, although the current candidate for the position of chancellor from the christian democratic union, free drake match so as not yet made a final decision from even before the election. he has made it clear that he intends to send tours messiahs to ukraine. this would certainly lead to a further escalation of the conflict, and of course, we should expect a russian reaction. this is an unpleasant situation and we should try to avoid it. to match has not yet reached a final decision on this issue as part of the election campaign. however, i fully believe that germany, as well as the french british and americans needs to have already achieved a significant level of support for ukraine. therefore, i would like to ask, and i'm pleasant and disturbing questions about how involved all the europeans and this will at this point. typically, austin, i'm telling thoughtful. and if we're talking about the relationship between russia

and germany in the context of sanctions, how would you assess the impact of these sanctions on both countries in the long term, who will be the winners and losers as a result of these measures, or 85 feet deep, well, the idea that we no longer need energy supplies from russia was absolutely wrong as a result of abandoning them. that is gas and oil from russia as we are now taking not rushing natural gas, but american l. n g american l n g is 3 times more expensive than russian gas, which has led to us no longer being competitive with the united states in industries that are particularly energy intensive. this benefits the united states and homes. germany, however, it is not of russia as the growth rate, there is still acceptable. while we have already been in recession for 3 years. and by the way, russia has found ways to sell its gas and oil through other countries, including the european union. a different price is. that's a problem. these functions of the you in germany move and russia, by the way,

another thing, in reality, it is clear that the sanctions war cannot be stopped. it is being conducted as harshly as before. the only difference is that russia is liberating territories more and more quickly to act. so even if you should, i would like to ask about your current assessment of ukraine's prospects for joining nato and the european union. it was after it was the not to regarding ukraine's possible accession tomato. i don't think it is very likely as while the war is ongoing, the nato chart does not allow for the admission process to begin. this would be highly unusual. as for the you, there are rules that must be followed some countries wish and are attempting to push for ukraine's membership and the you. however, i doubt this will happen if we follow the usual process for joining the european union. it would take a long time for ukraine to fulfill the requirements. however, some countries does ukraine's accession to the european union for ideological reasons, regardless of the potential costs to the u, edits, member states. this is

a risky proposition, and i am not sure how it will play out long at this point. it seems that more time needs to pass before you crane can join the is you don't really see the, it's time to get art while we come. that was the message from hundreds of demonstrators in par as who were calling for from stick with the you. the raleigh was organized by the opposition patriots. party. led by former m e. p. florian philip, all the protesters. voice the under president microns policies such as funding and providing weapons to ukraine. the crowd demanded the leaders resignation. shunting he should put fight his own more. mister filippo has been a book of product of the youth as well as francis involvement. indeed, the mould, dubin leader. my son has become the target of demonstrations demanding she resign after her targeting of media outlets. protestors gather this weekend in front of

the pro western presidents offices in the capital cushion. the recent bond on the spot, nick moved over new sites spark the latest discipline 10th with fedex saying to move violates principles of free speech. the opposition socialist party, organized the raleigh and this calling for parliamentary and early presidential elections to be held this year is what the locals have been saying about the incumbent leadership. who wants to go to visit the current government is ruining people ruining our children, our future. we have come out against this government. stop. it's enough. you see what's happening in the world. where are you leading us to the slow to me. we stand in favor of a good life throughout children for our grandchildren so that they can have a normal life, a life that is respected to someone who can work all their life and be able to retire with money. she does nothing for the people. she only does something for

romania because she is remaining and she wants to join the you. nobody needs us there. she does everything for the romanians. she works for them. she brought the leaders here to mold over. don't we have our own people who can leave the country? we do, and a lot of them with others where we leave and use drop for now this week, and keep right in the know with all the big developments emerging though, by giving us a follow on the x, you won't be bored. i promise you that the the

.
