the, the, the headlines here, one of the international, the youth says there's no deal on the table denying reports. it's competing with washington for ukrainian resources. brussels meantime pulling his tides with p as a waiting, waiting partnership from us. and obviously the deal with israel over $600.00 in prison, the palestinians are said to be released off for us. 4 points postponed last week. about size one is ready, official goals, those living and gaza stop human guns. everyone just pushes palestinians into israel. why didn't egypt take the 3 piece with israel? because it didn't want the egypt? no, it would have to be up to is gone. but the behavior like barbarians. i mean, you apparently ready to keep on finding notes like all the weapons and money and

heading to your brain here. and i see we followed up and pay for trail and expose west of billions are actually ending at the ride wednesday. that is, up to 8 am here in most go with a ton to talk about already, just a few moments on the evelyn, and that will be joining us here in the studio. but for now, a top story for you this hour here, we're not you international with western eyes, and specifically, donald trump's vision dead set on ukraine's minerals. the you chimed in and called its own resource partnership, deal with key as a win win. but now brussels apparently will cannot back, essentially saying is old news, the blog is not seeking to compete with washington. there is no proposal. so since 2021 to you has a partnership on critical raw materials with ukraine. formalize through our memorandum of understanding. so these dates back 4 years ago,

and as with all the critical raw materials partnerships that we have, this corporation is not only about securing supply chains for the you, but also about fostering local value creation and capacity building in partner countries, ensuring mutual benefits. now, as you see, this is really here about corporation with ukraine and not about any sort of competition with us. one step forward to steps back. it's so hard to get your head around the so good morning and so you have a lot in that could to get you here on this on the store. so i brought nobody here at the office studios on. what's the media's been reporting on, on a mineral d o between the u and ukraine, but, but, but now europe and officials are denying this. i'd love to get my head around it. what do we know so far? well, from what we know so far as that, the you commission a full industrial strategy alongside us live on demand actually visited cube earlier, where they intended to sign the agreement with the crane on these minerals. and

during that visit to you create according to media reports you commission to actually proposed an alternative agreement to the us one a emphasizing that's actually a when will when a deal, a beneficial for both sides. yeah. meantime the obviously trump's got basically the biggest voice right now. not just on the western stage, i think on the global stage these days. he's a, he's right, a very clear he wants pay back from kia, but any update on this or potential agreement with washington. well, actually the only trump just recently, just last night, touched upon the spacing that the last give will actually visit him on friday. and this still would eventually actually help washington to get his money back. that it, it provided to ukraine to sort of that. yeah, i hear that i hear that he's coming on friday. certainly it's okay with maybe like 2 and a he would like to sign it together with me. it could be

a trillion dollar deal. it could be whatever, but it's rivers and other things. so what we're doing is now we're saying, look, we want to be secured, we want to get that money back from what we know this mineral steel was very important for washington as a would allow to investing ukraine's minerals in exchange for 5, the military aid and donald trump consent that stating that an exchange k of will in fact receive $350000000000.00 as well as military equipment and the right to flight on. yeah. meantime from looking very, very confident there, i guess taking a page out of his own book walked out of the deal and asked you. 2 savanski own all of this, how successful has the crane being that made these negotiations on not successful. so from what we've seen just a few days ago, according to the media, donald trump actually didn't minutes his was stating that ukraine will in half of fact have problems with the us if it doesn't assign the manual steel and zaleski report to the class of clashed with us and the treasury secretary over

a proposal that demanded 50 percent of the rights, few cranes, the read many rows of probably stats for post military 8 of course. and apparently savanski even went as far as raising his voice at trump's invoice. zalinski struggle to keep international support was on full display and a recent tate ted with a trump and boy behind the heavy, gilded doors of his key of office where attentions fled over the future of ukraine's most important strategic alliance. the gravelly voice shouting from inside was unmistakable. he was very angry. a person present said of the ukrainian president, a notice of the 1st times the last k as in 5 disrespectful to us officials as you might recall um to alaska didn't tree best sense. well i the because i mean trump of cheese, the last gift, treating best and rather rudely. because when he visited tea of amy to sign the agreement, besides returning to washington empty handed,

zaleski was allegedly also unavailable to meet him because he was reportedly sweeping. oh yeah, meantime is a mad dash where you cranes, boston, mineral resources. it appears both the us and the e u a basically 0 again on this nice big fat piece of the pie. it kind of reminds me of iraq, afghanistan, and maybe, uh, syria. and so on, i guess, other, any other nations vying for a piece of his mind? well, disney looks like you, k is in there as well. um is i and ukraine's minerals because for quite some time now actually because as it turned out just a few days before thompson, ok ration ukraine and new k actually have signed a 100 the a part to ship declaration in which it states the following. it also submits the u . k as a preferred partner for ukraine's energy sector critical mineral strategy in green steel production. so, you know, from all of this, it looks like ukraine's resources have become very bizarre, desirable for every one with easy use us and u. k. community having

a lot of interest and benefits they could gain. yeah, no major surprise on that, especially as a blog. no, thank you very much. well, of course are these critical resources. these make the high tech well go around. and while ukraine's mendoza, minerals are essentially buried, china's decades of industrial growth have decided to become the worldwide leader. and some very rare of expos, so that surprises again as washington in a pickle was, it takes a month badging with all sorts of trade tyrus. so for now, it was easily a tranquil, repeating, essentially. now, what's at stake? did you know the us, china trade wars are one of the reasons for flood damage the landscape, worst nightmare this february. by that, i mean, donald trump's recent obsession with ukraine's mil rules, which could quite surprisingly lead to potential lucrative business deals between the us and russia. even before trump and his latest tariffs, the vitamin ministration was on an economic war path with aging. just weeks before

leaving off is biden's theme bands. the export of us develop chips that power ai systems through china. the action is designed to safe got the most advanced a technology and, and show that it stays out of the hands of a foreign adversaries. beijing soon headed back and said it would stop selling metals like gallium and so many and germanium to america, gallium and germanium are used in semi conductors with the latter also utilized an infrared technology, fiber optic cables and solar cells. well, antimony is used in boats and other weaponry, you may wonder why that could be a big deal for the americans. why can't they just get the metals elsewhere? well, they technically can, but china is far and away the top source for both metals globally, accounting for 94 percent of gallium and 83 percent of germanium supply. neither metal is actually particularly rare,

but processing costs are high. and because china has exported them relatively cheaply for so long, there are few facilities elsewhere to extract the resources. where else do they get gallium? for example, how big guess ukraine is one of the places where the metal is produced as a byproduct of aluminum. that could likely explain this. so we're asking for rarer than oil any the we didn't get the where earth's or rare metals like gallium, someone must have explained to mr. trump, that his country needs to look for places other than china to secure access to critical metals. the us president just won't let go of ukraine, where in fact, the cost of critical minerals productions could be overwhelming due to a number of factors like issues with chemical and water resources. kia stop, brass is worried. a deal with washington will be a burden of the future generations of ukrainian scans,

right in the middle of the whole, ukraine. where are a steel debacle? we find out that donald trump is actually a fan of the idea of getting critical minerals from russia, which by the way, doesn't o billions to the americans. so only good business in mind, you know that massive, rare is a very large, it's actually the largest in terms of land is by far largest country. very bad. we used to use just hours later, a lot of our poor, who unlike mister zelinski doesn't oh donald trump, a dime says he's happy to work together with the us on extracting these resources on terms that are mutually beneficial for both sides. mercy units. bruship is one of the absolute leaders in terms of these, those of these are the dimensions that they have found in the noise in the far east visa, quite capital intensive investments and capital intensive projects. we're happy to work together with any foreign partners,

including from the us. we wouldn't be ready to work with our american populace. the when i say our americans, necessarily, i mean not only administrative and government entities, but also businesses and even they were interested in working together. where arts and critical minerals have become buzz words thanks to donald trump. since he took over at the oval office for any nations with major emissions access to them is crucial because of their wide application in the world of high tech, from light bulbs, to guided missiles this table put together by a man or can researchers shows how far the us is behind countries like russia and china when it comes to reserves of these resources. 1.8000000 tons in the united states versus 10000000 in russia. and a whopping 44000000 tons in china. beijing is also firmly ahead of the americans in terms of the production of rare earths. this brings me back to mr. put his ideas

and surprise, surprise. gallium. remember how i said it's produced as a byproduct of aluminum limited to east of some of the numbers. the most importantly, i believe we could work together with american companies in this field, for example, back in soviet times with plans to build a new hydro electric power station in the cause of the region and create additional dominion production facilities. federal aluminum is i mentally about energy, something preferably cheap and that you either always both inexpensive and on top of that, environmentally friendly. so these plans have been around since soviet times you for that however, would be in capital intensive and investments heavy approaching, preliminary estimates of habits cost at somewhere around $15000000000.00 at today's prices. but we can conceive of this possibility. so re between the lines u. s. companies invest in a grand aluminum production venture that could also pay the way for getting access

to gallium. smart, the pieces of the puzzle could really all be coming together right now. and who would have thought just weeks ago that the us china trade war could lead to trade gambits by the russian and american presidents? well, i think us as play the found the quite a quarry on a, it's a k ukrainian resources on the bottom of us. money pays in t of a brussels is digging even deeper pricing. it's got lots small cash and weapons to prop up. key of author washington is putting the pastor, the ministers proudly supports each of the new initiative for military, for ukraine. and of course the details and especially the numbers where he be decided and discussed on the extraordinary european summits. on the 6th of march, we have to put to train in a position of strength so that ukraine is able to say no to about the. yeah,

so i think it drive a, you officials continue ramping up the rhetoric, despite the of the overwhelming lots of support from washington. and the money trained for his western partners that are still left is actually still steaming ahead. so up next is all contributor rachel lofton with a unique perspective on some of the know tour. busy you cases of how money allocated to a new crane and his people failed to ever make it to its fine destination. in europe and leaders are making a pilgrimage to keep the support vladimir zalinski on the 3rd anniversary of his dressing. like you collect cover charges at the local strip joint in cash only, and also the 3rd anniversary of the west tossing cash at him. like he's also giving them private shows in the v i. p room britain is offering to talk another $5600000000.00 into his cargo pants for quote, military aid, much of which may or may not in reality,

just end up in the pockets of the british military. industrial complex us president donald trump keeps complaining about zalinski having taken $350000000000.00 of us tax fair cash and needing to sign over natural resource rates in ukraine to pay for it. trump also keeps saying that he doesn't know where all that money was. anyway, zalinski is now sounding like a guy who really is a think that he should have to pay for this whole movie. if it turns out that it sucks, i know that we had $101.00 and that's a fact. i am not going to recognize 500, no matter who speaks today. so is no matter how we communicate with all due respect to our partners. still, i am standing firm because this is a true situation that's i'm not ready to fix, even 100 cillian, but i will explain why because we should not recognize grants as debts, like it or not. now, so with is basically telling trump pay look body. if you're not going to as venmo me on demand like bite, and then we need a do over here, like those uh, debts or grants or whatever never happened. okay. you know,

for the sake of friendship and partnership, stuff that business man like trump absolutely love basing deals on president zalinski said last week that he doesn't know what half of the money is that we gave him. well, we gave them, i believe, $350000000000.00. i legally a one or to said the ukraine received $200000000000.00 to support the army during the war. that's not true. it's in the, i don't know where all that money went to the city. perhaps it's true on paper with hundreds of different programs. i will and argue, and we're immensely grateful for everything. but in reality, we received about $76000000000.00. it's significant aid, but it's not $200000000000.00. okay, so the landscape doesn't know where the cash when trump doesn't know. last year the ukranian security service found that officials were working with ukrainian weapons companies to embezzle $40000000.00 earmarked for mortar shells. a couple of years ago, the new york times found that almost

a $1000000000.00 in weapons contracts had missed their delivery dates and the cash just kind of, uh, well disappeared. meanwhile, we, you just keeps throwing even more cash into this big black hole like gambling addicts at a rig casino. convinced that jack part is just one more better way. saw 1st priority to remains to empower ukraine's resistance. a sofa, the european union and the member states have supported ukraine to the tune of 135000000000 euros. that is more than anybody else. turned off and brussels also gave pole in a whole pile of cash generously and unwittingly donated pi. you tax, there's a $114000000.00 euros to be exact. and warsaw was supposed to buy power generators for ukrainians with it. but the u. anti fraud, teen just reported a few days ago that saw the generators were over priced by

a 40 percent. maybe they are decorated with for off the principles or something. anyway, the use as of the polish government agency that was managing this program was about as cooperative with their investigation as a child at bass time. but the anti fraud office worked with polish prosecutors, and, or size central as a corruption bureau. and now once 91000000 of those zeros back. good luck with that . hey, on the upside. another $22000000.00 westcott and save just in time before it could fall into the abyss like the rest of the cash. lars procurement process violated transparency, competition equal treatment and financial management principles. according to the findings of the investigation, contracts were awarded in a non competitive manner. failing to ensure that the you funds would reach their intended destination. some political opposition figures in france for example, are starting to wonder if maybe one of the reasons why this whole defend ukraine, they isn't going to well is because of the money is nationally going towards that.

meanwhile, back in 2023. several you nations accuse estonia of treating you military aid reimbursements? like a personal atm and guess who is the stone and prime minister back then? yeah, that's right. current you foreign policy chief kaya callous and over, and the check for public. the media reported that the health ukraine found they should receive the grass of about a 100, a 1000 euros to help you for any and refugee is to learn check and check prosecutor's office. found that by helping ukrainians, the founder of this n g o, a certain vladimir her, how apparently mostly just meant helping one ukrainian that would be himself and they're accusing him of embezzling those funds. as for where trump might want to start looking, if he wants to figure out where all the aid to crane, why that's no wonder spending even more money is a tough cell right now. the state side particularity one,

it doesn't seem that much is changed since back in 2022. when the scales were so flagrant that they were happening right under the nose of observers, and she have even military goods are cited for cash. we have established such facts that again, what do you expect when usa, i d, the suppose the gold standard for foreign aid once report will be spent over a $100000.00 on ukranian anti corruption tv show to raise awareness about the very same message. that's the landscape titled as president fighting corruption. yeah. seems like another case of money well spent to the middle east to go here on the program on i see where the sci fi and gaza are a still more or less holding on us. it's announced they've reached a deal with these rail a this now for the release of over 600 palestinians behind boston had been to, to be set free last week. and then, now accusing a mazda of exploiting is riley hostages for propaganda, and subjecting them to shoot mitigation during the release. meanwhile,

became monetary and processing. the enclave continues to grow a gauze of health officials for, for things like 6 children, including a new born of died of hypo. i mean since sunday of this, as israel continues to restrict shipments of critical shelf is in the palestinian territory, i'm at the near total destruction and has gone to try to return home. they remember the days of war, a severe council. the strike on the house was a shock for us. i didn't expect them to strike the house. we tell them where regular people with civilians, with people who are not connected to anything. when the house was drunk, i felt that we lost everything because the only thing we own is the house. 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, prevented us am such

a little maker meantime from benjamin didn't. yeah, it was really crude potty issue a very disturbing stipend in which she refers to published in unit in man, man in gaza as quote, a sub human will get more details now with i'm at least bureau chief but the, during our meeting with european an error of the state, and you said the parliamentary assembly of the mediterranean and it was albany. it was so that no one wants to palestinians. every one just by pushes the button to israel. the why did this egypt take the as when it made peace with is real. know it's all the time because it didn't want the egypt to know it would have to deal with sub human scum them and will behave like bar barrier because we thought mean somebody, nobody wants the fire storm of control received a disturbing remarks from israel's vice speaker. 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 the last is

real 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 that shapes policy in the same interview, but to relate out what he sees as a military strategy, suggesting to eliminate all a doubts in does. i'm take a listen. besides, these real needs a lot of ammunition to fight all the terrorists hiding in every hole in every corner. we already eliminated 20000 and we have 10000 more left. so maybe we're not winning because we're being merciful to the women and children that maybe we should just pull in the whole place as you're suggesting moment. so i don't know if we've been, we've managed to properly separate the kids from the adult level, but i don't see any innocent adults there and pressure level building to my level. so you're saying all the adults and gaza should be killed. anyone still there should be treated as an adult because we have move 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 sides. and the only thing i know of, i mean, come on, we do not and will not hold back in illuminating terrorists at a time of war. we won't let them get away by dressing up as civilians, we will eliminate them all. and these things when it's come at the crucial moment, while mediators scramble to keep the fragile gas was seized by a, from collapsing on surprisingly mass. as far as back of the statements made by the terrorist connects advice 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 isn't just about one politicians, words, it's part of the road, the 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 it would move

island right now while gas that remains in limbo with over $48000.00 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 through wide westbank 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. is ro, 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. 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 nearly god i can put some say, and i liked them. even my attorney's office colleagues who always disagree with me and everything, they tell me, most of you, of course we must. and natalie all guidance. i don't know what the leave i've ordered a complete c, jim 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 are acting accordingly. and it's not just the israel, the language is shifting elsewhere to of to listen to meeting with the banks. i'm going into the us president trump spoke about gaza. devastated by is really as

strikes note as a q, many tier in crisis. but as a real estate project suggesting the relocation of hundreds of thousands of palestinians from this trip, regardless of their will in their opinion. where is the washington that once called for 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 languages calais, so do actions pushing 80 hopeful peace even further away. well, wrapping up the program from out here on out to you with a quick side note for you. uh, you know, the u. k prime minister keeps saying that he wants to send troops to ukraine to provide so called security guarantees. but british military officials say the u. k only has barely 200 times sonya, off of which are operational. however, they say they do have 500 sources and that's where the u. k. ministry stands today . it literally has more horses been tanks. but good luck in ukraine, then,

fly from moscow. it's all to the, the if you think about russia, what is your mind picture the landscapes open up the phone lines. the last one does, can you imagine the, the discard starts the journey, the, the,

you ready to come along? the journey is elections offered up some surprises. the alternative for germany searched the left, garnered a stunning resolve. and importantly, voter turnout was high with the final result. the next ruling coalition will be the same status quo parties and their policies, not exact, we've changed the, the, the landscape. the initial move needs because of the

page. the annual, i guess i'll slow down the customer so the does that all sound last, that is a sign you know, the rest of your activity on the, on the stove we show you the solution is doing much to it. the prostate lives you to get some senior senior choke state video, couple metro scarlet. sure, cool. i seen movies for the additional lessee the . ringback the.
