the, the digging for ideal donald trump coast drains blotting means the lens key is heading to washington on friday to sign on the agreement for the us on the trains mineral resources of a sort of a sudden key upset. so far it does include abc period t guarantee. in the next agreement that disagreement opens. we can talk more substantively about security guarantees or amounts and how this funds will be managed. new was the landscape says the potential deal has no security guarantees, but he hopes future agreements. we'll have at least some although tom says that we'll be down to europe to provide the kind of makes you very much because europe is an excellent neighbor.
2:01 pm
romania is meeting presidential candidate colleague just released the volume forward. he didn't do correct that. he was detained area for interrogation of a neutral skeptics. recently claimed each state viewed him method black, and that's off the top. the top court are now and all the election. i become, i became a danger real danger for the each state today because i'm speaking and i strongly believe in the things because because i believe i strongly believe in peace. raso 10 to that it's the military stick approach on you praise, bye result in the western block being left off of a mega. she is a process off of the un security council adopted expressed as a resolution since this part of a very important development of the platform, especially in the security account. so this was the 1st the season when you create
2:02 pm
in prices taken by the security council. and of course you can't underestimate the importance of is the value of watching r t international reaching us on the russian capital. i a mike called watch it. all right. now we start with the breaking news. this, our donald trump has confirmed the trains the mr landscape will be in washington bins friday decided rad minerals agreements with the us. the president soleski is going to be coming on friday and it's now confirmed and we're going to be signing an agreement which will be a very big agreement. and that will be on where are and other things the previous administration plays in a very bad position, but we've been able to make a deal where we're going to get our money back in a lot of money in the future. now from all what i'm doing here by our t assess, got taylor to bring us to speed with what's going on. so i asked as good to have
2:03 pm
you enjoyed me. so great developments, i'm gonna say, can you walk us through what's going on here? well, trump did write a book called the all of the deal and you have to hand it to him. i mean, what, just being an office for around 5 weeks. and he's already managed to run goofy, which is out of ukraine. there is, of course, been so many rumors about this field, which is basically washington's way of getting a return on it's multi $1000000000.00 investment into the world. but now the full text has been deep. so we're getting a sense of the details to which is the landscape signing onto the top points here. the 2 nations will join will form a joint fund, and it's basically did towards the restoration of ukraine. now t of will contribute to respond 50 percent of all awnings from the future, monetization of the state and resources. so we're talking oil gas wrap up minerals . the u. s. basically is acting here as a facilitate to investing an infrastructure for example. and apparently,
2:04 pm
the 2 will be equal partners and have a cool se. now you'll notice one thing that i haven't mentioned at all is anything to do with security. for something i'm like come as a surprise because the landscape is so adamant from the very beginning, that security guarantees whether that was passed to me from the us or from native they have to be a part of the deal, but may be we saw him retreat from that position because we heard from trump on his defense secretary, they will have certain a categorical nato as a non stop to not the cabinet meeting. the 1st since from started his 2nd tom, he was also privy to the us as an interested yet. and in fact, it's gonna cost the buck onto the european system ship and what type of security your keys are willing to me. well, i'm not going to make security guarantees the on very much. we're going to do that
2:05 pm
because it's in talking about europe is next door neighbors. i'm watching soldiers being killed brain and russian soldiers. my number one thing is to get that stuff. my number to think is i don't want to have to pay more money because we have binders been 350000000000 dollars without any chance of getting it back. now we're going to be getting all that money back plus a lot more. so to the a concession from cube and we saved you is going to be picking up the bill and not the concession, but this time it looks like it's from the us as the number 500000000000. when the white house came out with this and say tional time to strip ukraine of its resources. so that in trumps was they wouldn't look like quote sauce because you set lots of money, a board for another, for anything, and exchange the us. the thing we want $500000000.00. now just so that we understand that is around 3 times more than the total 8 washington has cents to ship, but it is also about haul ok,
2:06 pm
estimated future mineral wealth of the nation. that is a staggering some. the landscape perhaps on supplies on surprise, and you refuse to sign on to those tom saying she would not in slaves here, 2 generations. what's the mission? i won't even take $0.10 of debt repayment on this deal to see if you to otherwise it's a precedent and quick stop. the question is not that we are not grateful to do. we are grateful. and in the next agreement that this one opens up where we can talk more substantially about security guarantees or amounts and how this one will be managed. we are ready to say if it is a condition that further aid to ukraine will not be free. yeah, this is a new reality and i think we will not be able to choose vehicle. so would the so a compromised thing on the number from the american side, tennessee, the truthful would get that what didn't withdrawn of tools. you might well try it. and so let him see a couple when they see me to exact deal on friday in washington with all these
2:07 pm
developments now, have we seen any reaction from within ukraine so far? well, that's been very useful. polling on this, so it is very difficult to gauge. but what we do know is that since taking office as a lot of ski has been selling out, huge swain's of some of ukraine's, which is called black cost farm. and on this most, our for about 25 to 30 percent, but is now in the hands of slower in the multinational an asset managers. and that has not seen won't be welcomed by locals. and by default protests. so it is distinctly possible that we're going to see a similar up for around the us deal. and in fact, we've already had some rumblings from a parliamentary. who's that remarked frames this entire thing as a betrayal. in fact, zalinski is not just a traitor. he is worse, because now he's selling ukraine's strategic resources in the future of generations of ukrainians. the clown did not just destroy the country, he pond its remains,
2:08 pm
and he will be damned for it. well, one final thing that i do want to mention uh where the off is the landscape giving away something that ukraine just doesn't have. because that has been a lot of debate over how much kia has a move advertised as well as way of trying to keep the ball getting shipped in any future discussions with trump. this is the same. trump, who of course, has nothing hidden. his personal facility towards the landscape, quite famous, enabling him a dictator. but how much of these resources also on that one territory under russia's control? some estimates put as high as 50 percent on the face, but it is an absolute important show deal valencia on the pressure at home deep p on pump concerns sliding about his legitimacy erotic teammates on to mom's every day for europe, for them us from nato failing to read the room, which is the now piece, i know who is the old to of the day, you know,
2:09 pm
totally betrayed his people selling his soil, selling his soul. but there are still so many questions over some of the, the following. a print of this feel and whether it is really the boons that washington is selling it as really so many questions. wait to see how the coming days spend things out. thank you so much. so let's get taylor right now. brussels has denied seeking. you'd be off its own with key of saying it is not trying to compete with the us on this matter. however, i mean, you commission spokes busing saying that the trains mineral could be vital for a european supply chains. as with o d u critical raw materials partnerships that we have, this corporation is not only about securing supply chains for you, but also about fostering local value creation and capacity building in partner countries, ensuring mutual benefits to columbia. as president also chimed in about kia
2:10 pm
decision making, and he said that the legs keys be manipulated by western european powers, ultimately to hand over ukraine to the americans, panama, for goodness, research and historian. they meet the roof, i've watched as but the west has been using international bodies for its capital is west for a long time, and ukraine will be no exception. the fight to be, what's the initials i've been using video and especially to expand it there. i mean, think most of these across the world, you know, we've seen these in africa, i'll do and, you know, become almost 0 special. what does the price if you're not picked up on this guy just about to buy more of christ itself. yeah, cheap puppies. you know, this thing was the initial of the buckboard. visuals. you know, the, the, what the introduced mutual customer visit right now for the most or less name. there is nothing about the above. metal was great. as far as we moved
2:11 pm
us as a new client because of the middle of our before me, thoughtful about these, you know, missed the poppies. us about the 12, the mitchell and oh, moved us with the email you. some of those did you want me to test on the new print is left, you know, to the co, you know of, did you like the mix of america? we are multiple. it's good, the last piece that we need in the country. now, why do you drains? minerals remain largely on top. try those decades off industrial expands and they've made it, but billable leader in sutton, new red, s exports. and that puts washington in a tough spot as a run to a power of said trade measures against b g r d c. me up to trying to break down to what's at stake for us. did you know that us china trade wars are one of the reasons for flood damage? zalinski is worst nightmare this february. by that, i mean,
2:12 pm
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 by the administration was on an economic war path with badging just weeks before leaving office 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 then show that it stays out of the hands of a foreign adversaries. they jane assume hit back and said it would stop selling metals like gallium and so many and germanium to america, gallium, a germanium are used and semi conductors with the latter also utilized in 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?
2:13 pm
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,
2:14 pm
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 ukrainians and 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 own billions to the americans. so only good business in mind, you know that massive a rare is a very large section of the largest in terms of land is by far largest country. very bad. we use 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 relates brushing is one
2:15 pm
of the absolute leaders in terms of results of these are a of metals they found in the north, in the far east visa, quite capital intensive investments, capital intensive projects. we're happy to work together with any ford and partners, including from the us. we wouldn't be ready to work with our american partners. when i say our american partners, i mean not only administrative and government entities, but also businesses if they were interested in working together. where us 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
2:16 pm
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. ers, 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 somebody? most importantly, i believe we could work together with american companies in this field. for example, back in soviet times the we have plans to build a new hydro electric power station in the cause of the region and create additional medium production facilities of federal aluminum is primarily about energy, preferably cheap energy hydropower is both inexpensive. and on top of that, environmentally friendly. so these plans have been around since the times that however would be a capital intensive and investments heavy project. preliminary estimates have its
2:17 pm
cost at somewhere around $15000000000.00 at today's prices, but we can conceive of this possibility. so read between the lines, if 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 and switching gears. now romania and presidential candidates calling to a desk who has been released off by he was earlier detained for an entire legation at the authorities. in bucharest, accused him of validating the constitution and other tribes. and he has been hit with a social lead. the black house ban some making t v appearances and cans leave the country for the next 60 days,
2:18 pm
erased making one sentence to report a se, quote. so we have re tugs $21950.00 area is support as gather to protect his detention for as a page of the raleigh is currently on your screen. does that go himself hinted at the course of his troubles in the recent age of you claiming that he's seen as a threat to the deep state? i become become an endangered real danger for the deep state today because i am speaking. and i strongly believe my time speaking because i believe i strongly believing piece not really a r t correspondence. some of the best key wasn't this to do to break down the developments for us. he was detained on the pretext of being queens, defiled, the financial support and backing. he received for his incredibly uh, incredibly successful presidential election last year. this is where
2:19 pm
he went from being french candidates. somebody 6 months ago. people in mania probably haven't even heard about. and then that was, this will take talk video where he went completely a file. i'm reading the things he talked about seem to resonate with remaining vote as an, as a result of that. he came 1st in the 1st round of the presidential election last year, winning 23 percent, securing him a spot in the 2nd runoff. however, that way, so many questions. how could this person come from? know, who's financing his campaign? how did his take talk video go? so viable who is really behind this? and of course, the thing got immediately pointed to it was russian met like no evidence, but that's where the finger went to. and that's because jessica, who has talked about the fact these m t ne, to he's question some of the fundamental values and reasons behind the your opinion . and he's seen as being, i'm a pro russian candidate, he's a traditionalist,
2:20 pm
and all of these things really real can send a lot of feedback from russell. so this was the question. and if the results were announced, they were a note as a result of all these questions surrounding who was financing his campaign in georgia school. actually at the time said that this was, i seen this piece of the investigative authorities that's listening to more of what he's having to say. i mean, this bolshevik system continues. there are hateful abuses today at 6 o'clock in the morning. the again descended on families and dozens of locations, waking up children from their sleep. they are seeking to fabricate evidence to justify election rigging and are doing anything to block my new presidential candidacy as they have engaged in an unsuccessful search for 3 months on behalf of my voters. and also those who have other political options. when a democratic and free romania, i am fighting against the security system that once us in slavery,
2:21 pm
we live under communism. there is nothing free and legal in what is happening. the remaining courts apparently cancel the whole election. no, i'm void, said russian involved with the official a court. right. i mean, surely there was some evidence. well, clearly no, i mean if it's not just all teasing this with 3 months passed the election essentially being over. and there's not been a scrap of evidence that shows there was any russian involvement whatsoever. in fact, that is, according to the authorities in remain yourself and as reported by outlets like the new york times. so you can see intelligence documents released publicly by romania, provided no evidence of a russian rule. only the observation that russia has a history of interfering in the electoral processes of other states and vague claims that what happened in romania was similar to well documented russian
2:22 pm
election interference in neighboring mold over a social wasn't russia. who was it because some of the attitude of being paying to help promote this take talk video to help it go so far. and it's not just people. i'm click baked, they're all promotions behind these things. and actually the tax authorities in romania uncovered the exactly who that was. it was a pro fee party. this is the national liberal party. they had hired a p off. and i'm, they essentially plucked georgia school and said, you know, this guy is finished kind of it maybe if we can get some support this when the conservatives over to him, all kinds of it will do a lot by to in this presidential election. but there's massive feedback fine, because to jessica, who's voice the things you have to say cleaning resonated with the voters in romania because clearly has black flies somehow. and. but this isn't the proof and there's no, there's a present to jessica who was invalid. but so why is he's on those i want to sleep
2:23 pm
today? well, i think it was, you heard him say at the very beginning when he was talking to alex jones, you know, he's the traditional s t m team. they to, he's empty, the state, the deep states, so to speak, to, he's saying all the things that are really concerning to brussels at the moment you think of what's happening in europe. we've got a number of leaders like victim open and hungry. we've got real foot feet. so in slovakia these are leaders though, you know, not towing the line when it comes to big issues mike, ukraine and joe. jessica is another person who would add in to that folds of people say hang on to buffalo. see to, sorry, that's not quite white, the remaining cultural court and knowing that presidential election, not for a strong election, caused a lot of debate and the values of don't just, you remain yet specifically. so the point that i try to make to our europe and friends, and i, i think that there are friends, i believe that i know president trump does is that friendship is based on shared
2:24 pm
values. you do not have of shared values. if you're jailing people for saying we should close down our border, you don't have shared values. if you cancel elections because you don't like the result and that happened in romania, you don't have, you do not have shared values. if you're so afraid of your own people, that you'd silence them and shut them up. incredibly strong words that from j d fonts in this we could be the start of a slippery slope because actually that decision by the court when you know those 1st round elections in romania is being used now as a potential pre tax fund of the european countries to look at what could happen in the country since they don't like the election results. in fact, one in you commission specifically outlined how that could be used in germany. if the elections haven't quite gone the way they want them to act on the less weight and see what happens and for the time being, let's keep our cool and enforced our laws in europe. we need to be aware of the
2:25 pm
risk that our laws may be circumvented, and that if they are not enforced, it could lead to interference. we did it in romania, we will obviously have to do it if necessary. in germany, he was talking to her about the interference of below must could waited into the german elections. but essentially what he was saying, they don't have to wait between the lines of a c a s d had one the elections. this is a no whitening policy, but in your opinion, you would have been looking for pre texas how it could have know them if the, if the came 2nd in the elections historic wouldn't from then doubling that vote to think at 20 percent. but despite that, they've been shocked to have to feel petunia teeth of governing as a coalition partner in germany. and again, it's because there is this narrative through europe at the moment. we've seen it too many elections if we don't like apologies for winning because they're seeing this being true, right. waiting or even to last, we will do everything we can to essentially hold the doors and stop them from
2:26 pm
getting into power. now research at the institute of european studies in bel grade step, one guy each believes the actions against georgia, scroll pop of use proxy war against russia. as 80 vance specifically talked about the values and about democracy. but the view, the care of all the members today care about the strategic when against russia. that's what they have said. that's what the nate, the leadership also was saying, um in the past 3 years. so this is why they want to subvert any kind of uh, a democratically elected leader, which can endanger the project. and romania is essential for their war against russia. romania, pulling the 3rd to yard as door freedom and said, 11 years ago, here in belgrade. so everything was really quite obvious from,
2:27 pm
from the very start, if um, if the people had the eyes to see what was going on. so now uh, at least more and more i would say probably um, of the european union countries. i can see of this blatant interference, displacing the violence against the people of romania. and of course again, just ask for something and russia has said that the, you risk being left out in the cold over attempts to resolve the war in ukraine. moscow claims that the militaristic approach of european states gives them no rights to state. i've been negotiating table of the your opinions, who have certainly on the rails of militarism and thus justifiably deprived of the right to claim participation in negotiations on the parameters for resulting the ukrainian crisis are increasingly isolated. there are serious shifts in the approach of the majority world countries which are demonstrating growing realism
2:28 pm
and the desire to promote the early as possible and to the conflict. i think we own these students a common sense. uh, because i think uh no more and more people realize that the 2 colors, well does it ask you to dream and the 2 colors of a few green douglas create. it's on the shame and they also see the real, you know, options on how to and so are you crazy, i'm conflict. so we, we are very persistence in promoting these things during last uh years. and i think that now it's failed to receptive ear of people in, in, in washington. now this is really a positive degree. well development. so now there is a class of 2 minds sets, one, militaristic, the european and one really stick. let's put it this way in the in washington of course is too early to make any conclusions for, but this was really very important. and we have very important development of the u
2:29 pm
. n. platform, especially in the security council. it was the 1st decision on your green, i'm crisis taken by the security council. and of course, you can't underestimate the importance of this wide still with our team to national for all the latest from around the wells. i see you again on some of the, on the the altima 2023, a surprise attack launched against israel by how much militaries show the world the no one had
2:30 pm
expected the palestinian radicals to have so many cutting edge weapons in the aftermath of the attack militants opened the unlucky rain for the rockets and missiles that rained down on these riley cities of the see the how can it be that arms are shipped to the middle east from a country whose top officials constantly complain about shortages of our munition and military equipments? anyway, we've been passed, maybe a little crazy us and e u military, a totals tens of millions of dollars will continue to show the power of partnership will continue to bolster ukraine's and forces by rushing them or capabilities that they need to defend their country. where does this really go.
