6:02 pm
the decision to hold off same from the political leadership is reading 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 the will provide west back 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 in much smaller numbers. many have been here since early morning send in in the rain, then hail, 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's a strong and brave enough to wait outside from us as we after the fusion is well also told in the pro says and calling, haul and mediators to step in,
6:03 pm
take them 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. this latest exchange has reno runny, unfolding on the extreme tension on says they really received the remains of hostages, who does not survive the 1st such cases to cease fire begun. the moment was devastated and quickly took an even dark cuz her and among the remains were 2 young children. tragic victims of the of silver 7 attacks and off the forensic analysis as ro concluded they were murdered with bare hands contradicted, have masses claimed that they were killed and is really as far as an agent to the tenants would have. mice was also supposed to return the body of the mother,
6:04 pm
but instead israel receive the remains of a new guys, and one that we have, she was swift prime minister benjamin netanyahu accused him off of y, lazing. the agreement, the more and that it would pay the highest price entire bill was suddenly raised from us, quickly corrected the mistake. returning the proper vase you well, we have firm and its commitments to the bill despite the punches as well. totals not to suspend the 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 israel had to do, or before, as part of the 0 is really set to free. a $102.00 probably student present us without all of them coming to the west bank and here to ramallah more than he. * will be sent back to garza including $200.00 women and miners release and exchange for the bodies of hostages returned earlier on. the lease also includes 5100 serve and life sentences and 59 was
6:05 pm
a long ways in terms israel refuses to allow them going back into the west bank slicing security concerns the the pull to, to countries like age of only about the safety form of prison or is those israel says, did not have blood on the hands are being released to ramallah or q 5 is jerusalem, or rather, are expected to be released. we cannot say when and again, if earlier today, how in the summer they have mazda 36 is really hostages from 3 separate locations in jobs. i reminded the captive has been held in different parts of the same place as in previous exchanges. the hostages were 1st handed over to the international red cross center, these where the army, which press 4 to send into israel for reunions with their families and is ready for such capture. deeply emotional moments, often more than $500.00 jason cheese rate is any a core and all that invented on that a simple and have ties showing off finally home. all. so really we're,
6:06 pm
i've read them in the so and he summit so yes. who has been held in dogs, i attention over a decade leading to school. this is a force that these really government has done little to secure this free that before. now, over the course of these war we've reported so many these to in is really of f e o, p and origin who was due to a mental disorder mistakenly crossed in 202014 and was never seen again until last year. when how much would be a visual of hey, improving. he was a lie. medical evaluations have confirmed that he and 5 all the hostages are in satisfactory condition. now all eyes are on when palestinian prisoners will be freed to middle, all thousands of his readers took to the streets was made for gathering, reading some of these, calling on the government to stick to its commitments and release palestinian prisoners. they fear the ada disruption might endanger the release of the hostages, still held in captivity and gaza. the risk then,
6:07 pm
not ready for the dental and 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 right. can you frame with donald trump saying he's don't with loving. there's lensky. is this staying for peace talks? i think that money given must be paid back. the united states is given $350000000000.00 because we had a stupid, incompetent president and administration. so we're asking for rarer than oil edu 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 then made
6:08 pm
a deal with us for forever and things man who knows what rivers 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 secretary of treasury, a very good guy actually went there and they couldn't even come close to get a good deal done. 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 as close as he was unable to meet them again. but uh so, so just on wasted trip in dangerous 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. but it seems like washington is late to the party with london getting there. first, the british governments, at part in 3 mothers to secure exclusive rights to ukraine's resources just days
6:09 pm
before donald trump took office ortiz marine a culture of the has been delving deeper into the story. and it's clear that the u . k. has become very passionate. it's about the ukrainian causal of a sudden, especially the last couple of months, even as a piece deal seems within range. wanda, is determined for ukraine to keep going by using lies brainwashing 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 as in ukraine is part of it because the premiums and europeans are the ones to meet so, so in some of the deals here in europe. so without this, the any
6:10 pm
d wouldn't just work very grateful to all those european politicians that spoke out and read from the values and principles said they are defending. no one is 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 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 he's 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
6:11 pm
resilience and the opportunity to develop some had more energy cooperation as the agreement states right here. it also cement as the 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 the sports 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 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 that landmark agreements was signed before tom had a chance to get there literally 4 days before his in all duration. and now i think
6:12 pm
it was once in or else we're going to rain very valuable, rarer. so we was, while we pull it up to go in terms of the 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 with in going to secure what we're giving them with a rare are us and other things. here's the thing. we don't get our money back and we told them that the deal is we do something with us treasury secretary school and the best sense even travel to crate it 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 versus actually when
6:13 pm
you were sleeping and unavailable for me to be traveling many hours on the train, which today we're talking about pacific, or he was there to get 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, 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, 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,
6:14 pm
their newspaper articles out there about how we trust 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, 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. well, it seems a broad 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
6:15 pm
unable to provide any security guard sees, even if they tried spa staff complements 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 more time as the u. k. did during world war 2. this was amends, east 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 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 card for it as prime minister is even willing to send his own troops unprepared.
6:16 pm
consider committing purchase forces on the ground, alongside office. if there is a lost and peace agreement, but the must be a us back stop. because a us security guards, it is the only way to effectively to, to russia from attack. can you create a good? but as he can see, even he admits the us and 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, the 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 an american stake in the resources back in september, months before the u. k. data? no,
6:17 pm
i discussed developments earlier with former director of inter governmental the 1st for the us trade representative stake. go. that 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 bad. you made it and very abruptly as well as i think that was a desperation cell and, and again, won't necessarily withstand the test of time and keep in mind, president 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 the 5 percent of their gdc that he's asking. yes, the us says, okay, fine britain, you want those where is minerals where you're going to 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 that mr. so lend
6:18 pm
speed off to dates to the problem and hope they just wouldn't notice that, you know, he 1st made an offer to the u. s. 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 me a little bit about an old movie called the producers, were some guys decided to put together a, a play called sprint time for a hitler 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. it's extreme. scott bessette 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,
6:19 pm
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, whether it's not putting them in nato, which is a bright red by 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,
6:20 pm
to restore peace and prosperity relationships with russia as well. i think one of the worst things that we've done it, there's conflict, and 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 give 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 horns hungry, its own 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 middle. the one we have on that is the war. in fact, is not even about ukraine, but 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
6:21 pm
the russians would idly watch this happen is still a mystery. 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 needle member. 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, a sense of what's your political as towards m o l a say is 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 never was as part of the final several months. um, they will remain a buffer zone between russia and nato, and most keep in mind or about countries of the media. planes has never been
6:22 pm
a particular friend of russia as a particular friend of cruelty, as he has always said, we are members of nato. we are members of the e. u and he identifies with the sort of the western uh, 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 west. so he sees that there will remain a division in europe in the future, but is to be hoped that this division will not lead to war. and in a, just in case the ukraine will be the buffers of separating the western russia. all right, something else to tell you about why does germany propose to go to the pools and national elections on sunday, angry seems helping witnessed on the streets of berlin with police left wing
6:23 pm
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. the update is forecast to make significant date to close 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 purchases and implemented other measures that have led to a rapid backward slide for it's economy, which is now struggling to avoid recession. that's sure to be a big election issue as well. with local saying the root and coalition has gone to little too late. i had finished good blasts, didn't do anything to few decisions and above all, mostly negative ones. i am disappointed by all the politics of the routing coalition. come to me a phone at 1st. i could not imagine that 3 such different parties could achieve
6:24 pm
good results together. we are 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 more in europe, more in the middle east, economic decline. these are very big problems, and that's why we need a fresh start. well, earlier our sister, german language channels spoke with the bender. stag member klaus ernst from the
6:25 pm
empty globe list. so we're getting the act alliance party. and then archie exclusive, he raised some key issues stuff. the fast approaching vote has put in sharp focus the eastern city. although the current candidate for the position of tron select from the christian democratic union, free drinking match. so as not yet made a final decision for me, even before the election, he has made it clear that he intends to send taurus 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 the germany as well as the french, british and americans, and i've already achieved a significant level of support for ukraine. and therefore, i would like to ask an unpleasant and disturbing question. how involved all the europeans and this will at this point. last and i'm telling thoughtful,
6:26 pm
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 prices. i think that's a problem. these functions of, of the you and germany move and russia. we,
6:27 pm
by the way, another thing in reality, if 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 head, to cut you know, the ship. since i would like to ask about your current assessment of ukraine's prospects for joining nato and the european union. it was also interesting not to regarding ukraine's possible accession to nato, and i don't think it is very likely as while the war is ongoing, the nato chart that does not allow for the admission process to begin. this would be highly unusual. as for the e, you, there are rules that must be followed some countries wish and are attempting to push for ukraine's membership in the you. however, i doubt this will happen, but again, 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
6:28 pm
reasons, regardless of the potential costs to the u, edits, member states. this is a risky proposition, and i'm not sure how it will play out long at this point. it seems that more time needs to pass before ukraine can join the, you know, i'm really dusty. 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 youth, the raleigh was organized by the opposition patriots. party led by former m e. p. florian philip, all the protesters, voice the under president. my problem is policies such as funding and providing weapons to ukraine. the crowds, amount of the leaders resignation. shunting, he should both fight his own more. mister filippo has been a folk of critics of the youth as well as francis involvement inmate the mode dubin leader. my son that has become the target of demonstrations
6:29 pm
demanding she resign after her targeting of media outlets. protestors gather this weekend in front of the pro western presidents offices in the capital kitchen. the recent fun on the sputnik molto been use side spark, the latest discipline 10th with fedex saying the move violates principles of free speech. the opposition socialist party, organized the raleigh. i'm just calling for parliamentary and early presidential elections to be held this year. here's what the locals have been saying about the incumbent leaders. who wants to go to 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
6:30 pm
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 the news 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 compass more on us than most americans. politicians is the one who was exposed, then lies deceit and the production the american system. and also is the one who's
