management system for there's other regional issues if there's new a solution of what he would do to including 1st of all the aspect of the middle east and situation of the palestinian. the are top stories on r c to pro ukrainian suspects are reported later on. friendship police custody after monday's bombing attack on the russian consulate in march side, also ahead. several children die from freezing temperatures in gaza overnight as an as rarely official shocks listeners on the radio referring to palestinians as tub humans and calls for their elimination. everyone just pushes palestinians into israel. why didn't egypt take them when it made peace with israel? because it didn't want them? egypt knew it would have to deal with sub human scum who behaved like barbarians.

sasha is one of the undisputed leaders in reserve. so these are samples, we are happy to work collaboratively with any ford in the box, including americans. glamour, put in ways and on the rush for rare earth with the pitch to consider joint projects on any russian territories. but the us an idea echoed by donald trump for world peace and last name please. the live from our headquarters in moscow. i'm rachel ruble. this is archie international. our top story here on our t french police have reportedly arrested to man in connection with monday's attack . on the russian consulate in march, say the suspects were detained during

a pro ukrainian rally. console general has done a swab or on ski says, well, the situation remains tense. emission is already working as usual. i don't that the idea of the tax like this are likely to happen again, especially since the police coordinate was here yesterday has been lifted. it has now been revealed that both detain, these are french nationals from the very beginning of the special military operation in ukraine. we have received a huge number of threats, of physical violence from the french by emails, as well as by telephone. i think there will be an impartial investigation and the perpetrators will receive the punishment they deserve. i'm sure of it. i also believe the attack was more likely aimed to intimidate console or staff or financial hard sees, identified the suspects, things to see since the 4th there's that was provided by the russian conflicts. and then they tracked them down and found them out of pro ukrainian concert. just hours later, this was right in front of the city hall. it's

a man in his fifties and another man in his forties who are now in custody. being questioned by investigators who are also looking into the substances and the rest of the found in those bottles that was thrown inside the garden of the russian consulates. here in moscow, the russian investigative committee is also looking into the incident and has more on what happens, fucked on the funding and things like that. talk on the console general of the russian federation and mercy. the investigative committee has opened a criminal case on february 24th, the assailants through 3 bottles containing an un identified explosive substance onto the premises of the console general. as a result, 2 of them exploded least actions posed a threat to the safety of the institution staff. the investigation believes that the attackers acted with the intent of complicating international relations within the framework of the criminal case cooperation is underway with the russian foreign ministry. and international request for legal assistance is being prepared and all circumstances surrounding the incident are being established. and we also now know

that the perpetrators knew exactly where there was fine. those explosive devices added as it would swear. normally diplomats park their cars, but not in those days because of those warnings that were issued by rushes, intelligent services. who said that they received information from europe, that kia was planning a series of publications in the form of terrorist attacks against russian diplomatic missions across europe. and particular in slovakia in hungary as well as in germany, they said that as most likely to happen in baltic and scandinavian countries. and it looks like this was one of their attempts and must go demanded answers right away and a thorough investigation from friends. and this is what marie is a harv of the spokesman for the foreign ministry, had to say, as soon as this happened, what happened on the territory of the russian consul, it and mercy obviously has all the hallmarks of a terrorist act we demanded from france and immediate comprehensive investigation and of course measures to strength and security. thank god,

no one was hurt. now as we understand it, local law enforcers are working, but the relevant demands from the russian side has been made. and it looks like france lessons and now friends to fresh nationals are in custody, who were detained again out of pro ukrainian protests and marshall has since of course, stepped up security measures at diplomatic missions and friends for now it's only in france, but we'll see of course how the story develops. the head of the french n. g, a west, east nickel. i'm. if it says the west and t rush are rhetoric is provoking people to commit terror acts against innocent civilians to try to maintain war against the people who have done best and in these, these 2 regions and against russia. and when we all know that there are very extreme people around, so that's getting around or are you creating a nationalist coming from new nazi? i would say the political parties and, and they want, they want to fight. they want to push this as far as they can to, to,

to drive some sort of wedge between russia and ukraine. and this is, of course, this will count to 5 because we have arrived in a situation where today even the us and restaurant waiting on the same the same way in the un security council. this is practically unheard of in these past 2 years. and at the same moment, we have people in the west for trying to do everything they can to, to maintain the war. this is something that i think which is negative for your credit. and it's going to be difficult for us to then ski and such. i would say a global atmosphere and his supporters that they're going to try everything they can do to keep bound to doing it. they couldn't make, maintaining this work. but i think that globally, a lot of people just want to say ok, this time it's time for peace. several children including a new born girl, died overnight and die. so because of the cold weather, as israel continues to restrictive tense and mobile, homeless from being brought into the palestinian territory, video reveals the devastation left in the wake of idea of operations. those

returning to the northern regions are grappling with the shocking wreckage. the severed council, the strike on the house was a shock for us. i didn't expect them to strike the house. we told them where regular people with civilians, with people who are not connected to anything. when the house was struck, i felt that we lost everything because the only thing we own is the house you. we lived a nightmare for 15 months, and now this is the greater nightmare. because this is a personal loss for us losing memories and our entire lives in a moment. it's a feeling no words can describe. well, that's as shocking statements referring to palestinians. and guys as a sub humans are broadcast on his really radio by a lawmaker from that. now who's ruling the crew to party. but the, during our meeting with european and arab states that the parliamentary assembly of

the mediterranean, it was obvious that no one wants the palestinians. every one just by pushes them into israel. they might know why didn't egypt take the, when it made peace with israel? no, it's all the time because it didn't want the egypt knew it would have to deal with sub human scum who behaved like barbarians coming so nobody wants them. we can cross now to our see middle east bureau chief maria, for a notion of maria, a shocking story to say the least take us through the commons. hello to you. rachel. indeed, a firestorm of control received a disturbing remarks from israel's vice speaker of parliament where he refers to palestinians from garza's sub human critics say his language, check those dangerous rhetoric from nazi racial ideology, dehumanizing type groups to justified violence. and the ironies and last israel was

found in the aftermath of the holocaust. you have a senior jewish lawmakers now using similar language. and it's not just words. it's a mindset, but shapes policy in the same interview, but to relate out what he sees as a military strategy, suggesting to eliminate all a doubts in guys. i'm take a listen. he says he's real needs a lot of ammunition to fight all the terrors, hiding and every hole in every corner. we already eliminated 20000 and we have 10000 more left with the maybe win winning because we're being mess of old to the women and children that maybe we should just pull them the whole place as you're suggesting a little bit too. i do not enough. we've been, we've managed to properly separate the kids from the adult level, but i don't see any innocent adults there. i'm pretty sure the name to my level. so you're saying all the adults in gaza should be killed. the whole, the, anyone still there should be treated as an adult because we have moved the women and children with them. and so you're saying separate the women and children and then target adults that will do the trick is yeah,

so the only thing i know about me to come out and we do not and will not hold back in eliminating terrorists that are time of war. we won't let them get away by dressing up a civilians, we will eliminate them all. and these statements come at the crucial moment, while mediators ramble to keep the fragile gas to cease fire from collapsing. on surprisingly high mass has fired back or the statements made by the terrorist connected vice speaker newsome by tory or a public incitement to an estimate cleansing policy and embody the pass of genocide that the war criminals among the leaders of the occupation have chosen against our palestinian people over the past 15 months. the isn't just about one politicians words, it's part of the road in narrative where palestinians i'll pull trade as expendable its rhetoric that dominates is really politics widely spread. it is really media as

well designed to strip away human dignity and justified policies of occupation fueling even more violent right now. while guys are remains in limbo with over 48000 palestinians killed in the war as well as shifting focus to the west bank where i d. f is expanding its large scale operation. tanks have brawled into jeanine in the north, although to wide west bank for the 1st time and 2 decades. 40000 people have already been displaced from refugee camps that were originally meant to shelter palestinians, forced out of the homes of to israel's creation. israel has made it clear it plans to stay in the west bank for at least another year. and some of these really politicians openly calling for the west bank to become another guys on the speculation as well. maybe preparing to a next the area entirely. so but tories words on isolated, but rather part of a pattern take a listen to the show. i'm so lots of,

if you decide to end the siege to break the siege, it will be, in my opinion, a terrible decision. because without hunger and thirst amongst the gods, the population will not be able to recruit collaborators. we will not be able to recruit intelligence. we will not be able to provide people with drink with food, with medicine. but it's clear for everyone today the right wing parties were correct about the palestinian matter. today it's very simple. you're going everywhere and they tell you a nicely god, the could put some say, an isolated, even my attorney's office colleagues who always disagree with me and everything. they tell me, most of you. of course, we must entirely all guidance what the leave. i've ordered a complete siege and gaza. there will be no electricity, no food, no more, no fuel. everything will be cut off. we are fighting against human animals and we're act accordingly. and it's not just the israel, the language is shifting elsewhere to of to listen to meeting with benjamin.

antonia who us president trump spoke about gaza. devastated by is really as strikes not as a q, many tier in crisis, but as a real estate project, suggesting the relocation of hundreds of thousands of palestinians from this group regardless of their will and their opinion. where is the washington that's once called for a 2 state solution in a world where wards carry power, the rhetoric against palestinians in gaza and in the west bank is only getting sharper and as language escalades. so do actions pushing 80 hopeful peace even further way back to you. rachel, r t middle east bureau chief maria from ocean. i'm also thank you of the well now to syria where a residence of us southern border city are protesting against israel's military occupation and hawkish rhetoric. the rally and the ra sol, locals waving national flags and shouting and t. israel slogans. but citizens took

to the streets after benjamin netanyahu said, no serene troops should be deployed to the south of damascus is riley later has demanded a full demilitarization of that area. he ordered the idea of to occupy the buffer zone between israel and syria during the chaos, the saw the toppling of the a saw the government in december. syrians want b is rarely gone from their lands. leah crane isn't the only country where the us can find rare earth minerals. russia has a lot more of them and the president put and has offered to jointly develop the resources with washington. under donald trump, this elizabeth arrows, metals are very important. they constitute key resources for more than the sectors of the economy. so far we have done little in this area and we need to do more. we wouldn't be ready to offer administrative resources for work in this direction to

all americans partners. when i say partners, i mean not only administrative and governmental structures, but also companies should they show interest in collaborating with us. we undoubtedly have significantly more resources of these kinds than ukraine. let me emphasize that. that actually is one of the undisputed leaders in reserves of these are metals. these projects require substantial capital investment. we are happy to work collaboratively with any ford and fondness including americans, by the way, in regarding the new territories, the same applies. we are ready to attract for and partners to our so called new historical territories that have been returned to the russian federation. there are also certain reserves. then of course, this is a very drastic and important change considering how stagnant relations between moscow and washington were under the bite and administration. but with this new administration, it's new interest in diplomacy and restoring. relations ross has made it clear that

it is ready to work with foreign partners when it comes to a rare earth metals development, including the ones in the new russian territories. now what's and also suggest the joint award between washington and moscow when it comes to aluminum production, specifically and the costs layout region. and the russian president also health emitted with russian officials discussing this very same issue in which he describes the metals as a strategic reserve viable for russia's mutual competitiveness and economic development. and he also highlighted the seats in new materials and chemistry projects, which essentially tackled the complete cycle of the rare airs, minerals of industry, from extraction to the production of high tech does. that was even more interesting is the fact that at this meeting came, as a trump expressed interest in developing economic relations with russia in this

industry. yeah, we're trying to do so. a lot of these are we want as well and see, i mean, i would love to be able to do that. you know, that matches where it's a very large section of the largest in terms of land is by far very bad. we used to do that for all the so last thing that was seems like it's all about economic cooperation now in cooperation and partnership. are you in front of the discussion? a huge change from before and now washington and moscow are making most towards one another and they're ready to better relations between one another. he was also asked about what he thinks about donald trump seeking in ukraine. can you tell us a little bit about that? and those are an interest in words from the allow them to put. and he also added that donald trump has a free hand on ukraine. unlike european leaders,

russia seems to see that the united states is looking for peace and strengthening relations. and, and this with the interview of lot of put in was also ask whether he believes the from is taking action based on emotions. now his response is, the approach of his american counterpart is rational. is donald trump acting on emotion? well, of course not just just naturally, the cut and head of the key refreshing gives the reason to show these emotions. but from what i said earlier, something completely different images. these actions are based not on emotions, but the cold calculation on the rational approach to the current situation, us and then the current situation, to be honest, we wouldn't be interested in the human sitting there. and for the, the composing the regime with which we are in the conflict. now you have leaders of 2 of the world's most powerful countries, almost seeing eye to eye and hopefully with joint efforts and joint actions. it

seems like this is pat heading towards a piece and moving forward with. 1 trump also said that the lensky was a dictator without elections, and vladimir putin is not exactly the landscape biggest fan either. so could you tell us a bit about that? yes. well, donald trump cold as the last dictator as a rep to this, when to add the both leaders continues, lot of and put in is not very fond of the man either. while speaking above loved him is zaleski, the russian president believes that this is becoming a toxic said, there was one that is not necessarily good for ukraine. so it just seemed to kind of handle the key effort. she is becoming a toxic figure for the armed forces or ukraine, because he's given ridiculous folders dictated not by military considerations, but by political considerations. and he does not clear what they are based on. this leads to on justifiably, firewalls is even though it's a very high, it's

a catastrophic loss for the ukrainian army. it becomes toxic for society as a whole, among other things, incumbent president tom cars in the office. but he wants to make peace by the way. so do we and as soon as possible and that kind of hit a very she is standing in the way of achieving that goal. and that's hands that position seems to meet on the president of the united states. it has nothing to do with russian interests. it's more likely in the interest of ukraine, all the ukrainian states, in order to preserve ukrainian state which we have nothing against this either. although of course, we would like this territory not to be used as a breach, had forwarded a tax on the russian federation. used as a house style, but each had for us. so that eventually turns into a friendly neighbor in state and according to russian data, it seems that the lives cuz chances that went in the presidential election are essentially non. now russia continues to say that he wants peace with you quite as

soon as possible, but as it was, is the one that is spending in no way. interestingly enough, so well. trump cold zaleski a dictator. he feels different towards bought them to put and it seems, let's take a listen. when the american president was asked whether he would call put in a dictator and his response, a really good settlement. now, while europe continues to slum russia and slammed law the may put in, on the other hand, it seems that washington finally has some sort of positive feelings towards russia . yeah. okay. so we know that obviously relations have cooled between russia in the united states. but where is the european union plane tall? now when it comes to europe, of course, the situation is a little bit more complicated, but for blog and they put in, he sees it as very important for europe to be part of the negotiations process. now we must remember though, that last saw never stood against that. in fact,

that's what russia has been calling for for the past 3 years. but it said europe kept on refusing. now let's set the listen at what log in and put in had to say about europe. the europeans continue demanding the right to participate in the negotiations over ukraine. what do you make of this? and i see nothing wrong with vase. perhaps no one can dement anything here, especially from russia, let them demand from someone else. they have demanded anything from their muscles for thousands of years and now they are being demanded in the return. therefore, they should sit at home and think about why they leave the way they do. however, they are participation in the negotiation process is still important. we have never given up on this, and we have been discussing that with them constantly at some point on their all sorts of fire faced ideas to defeat the russia on the battlefield. v themselves refused to contact us. now europe wants to be involved,

but not necessarily with an open mind, like the current us administration, as they keep on something ukraine with more weapons. so how would negotiations really happen when one side wants to hear nothing from one of the parties that is involved in the conflict, as lot of are put in, has reiterated time and time again, that it has nothing against the preservation of a ukrainian sovereign states or you're quite new state heard. it just wants to allow us to stop using the territory as a threat towards washington security. so we will have to wait and see how the situation will develop with europe. we do know so far that washington, on the other hand, it looks like it's headed towards peace and a strong restoration of ties. financial consultants, angelo juliano joins me now to discuss this further. angelo, what's your reaction to this proposal from put into allow american investors to jointly develop russian rare or i was to just call the strategy of engagement.

so be thinking there's a, you know, there are lots of friction points between the russian and the us. and by engaging this putting thinking leverage and can actually find a long term solution. but i would say the initiative comes from mainly from uh, president trump. uh, the reason he's very simple uh the us is using the war in terms of what wants to make sure that this is not going to be. he's lost, but by that it's lost in the use loss. so he wants to use these. these sit back is an opportunity. what is your opportunity here is actually the us on the loan to might be able to, we please, the do is a, is the largest for him, investors in russia. so we're looking the, the us will be place russia is a supply of gas, but the u. s might be able to replace e u. s. by,

by investing massively into russia. oh, uh, so by we taking investments that was left by the you. so you see the us here, he's actually waiting on hold for us. there are some parts of the invited us investors to develop mines inside rushes, new regions which washington doesn't recognize what, what the acceptance of this deal signal about the current us policy to well it, so it is clearly a shift. uh well i think i think booking is very well aware that uh, that the us is actually shifting its focused towards china and by engaging with russia, what trump is doing is, is booking a rush train to position that's if there was a day that the confrontation between china and the us would start in the south china sea that would put a, put into the base difficult position. and maybe putting might have to be uh,

take this signal, a sense that china took when he came to ukraine. that means the alignment and then alignment, by the way, is of so a, one of the basic principles of all of the brakes and the multiple, i would, so out by doing that, trucks wants to make sure they're putting with not a line with china, even a potential consultation between the us and china because clearly what was what trump is doing. top is not the men of piece, i think on the surface. it looks like it looks of a positive, but ultimately the thing, thanks us thing thing so vague, clear. it is time is extremely urgent for us to get. we need to shift the focus to watch china. and if they manage to deal with china, well rush, i would come after and i think putting clearly knows that so what bodies is doing is, is what we call be close to your friends, but be even closer to enemies. interesting. we've heard

a lot of mutual respect between these 2 leaders, especially in the approach towards solving new crime crisis. it's quite a shift in town from the last 3 years, when biden was president, there's a clip i want to play 1st. let's take a listen to that. the solar, i think he wants to improve the political environment in ukraine to consolidate society, to create conditions for the survival of that you claim and states. and on the whole, it is not so much in favor of russia. i'll throw, we have to conflict with a cut and switch him. he just for the benefit of degree in itself. when i got here, one of the 1st cause i made was the president boot and, and we were treated with great respect and they want to, they want to end this war. so that's a big thing. so angela, again, this is quite a shift in town from the last 2 years. is this what cooperation between russia and us to should look like betsy mosley this? uh uh, the idea of what we entering is in is the multiple that would multiplan award use

a box, how we could make the pie the whole time, much bigger. so in how we can make it the when, when a while not distracting to having destruct sion and also destruction of 5 you oh, you know that he's going, it gives prosperity when he comes to too old also was that only bringing despair and, and containing clearly containing the, the rest of the world. so on the surface it is extremely positive. why might end up my end soon? but again, i think, uh, what are the major changes that we had before a global use the agenda, which clearly trump is against. there was a globally suggest that with the us, the, the shape know what the heavy as a is tell us imperialism. but, uh, they took away the global use agenda and all the identity politics that came along with it. uh, so at least these more in common,

i would say between the trump and whole team then before we between biden and booking, we see positive size, but i would not bets complete the on the trump. i think i think it's just a strategic move and, and ultimately these going to be about china. what do you make of the timing of the offer to jointly develop a rare or it's do you read anything into that at all? you know, uh, i think uh, probably be able to do the id was bilateral. i think probably the trump was a trump needs to sell these to the american people. so it needs to come up with a, you know, the, a, b, i would say thing. sure. but we suck in terms of dollars, this ideological, but more in terms of dollars. it needs to justify that. the us a spend hundreds of billions, billions of dollars on the project, ukraine. and it leaves keys is somehow saving face. and the end is actually

shifting the burden to, to the e u. a. but, and also, so the things trump wants to improve the political environment of ukraine. what could that potentially entail? that it's hard to say it is a student clear. we need to look at what the, your lead is, are going to do in a thing this uh, it seems like the 1st sense we seeing or not to be positive. so there might be some sanctions there when he comes to the front. what the, it seems like what the, the, the might want to do is to pin down russian troops still full wide, at least the peacekeeping forces. so keep the region unstable, so russian forces often don't. then you quade, rather than uh, being able to shift towards the next confrontation which would be in the south china sea. and you also saw us or rather riled by that.
