yes, and how will this be viewed in kyiv? l will this be viewed in kyiv? incredibly concerned? certainly. unfortunately, ukraine's position not ideal right now on the battlefield. russia has an upper hand in advancing further over the last several months. to the same time, to my knowledge, there hasn't been any serious moves by the current administration to offer more military aid to ukraine, which is absolutely needed to at least prevent further russian advances in ukraine, and in this situation zelenskyy probably has no other chance than to go with the flow, because he of course, and the future of his country is definitely highly dependent on the continuing western assistance.— the continuing western assistance. , , assistance. president trump said zelenskyy _ assistance. president trump said zelenskyy would - assistance. president trump said zelenskyy would not. assistance. president trump said zelenskyy would not be| said zelenskyy would not be frozen out of the discussions but he did also seem to suggest that they would need to be an election in ukrai

we live pictures from kyiv. have a live page up and running with the very latest, including the news that president zelensky is currently in the uae, and has discussed mediation and prisoner exchanges with russia while on a visit to abu dhabi, and there may be a role that the uae can play on that. you can find out more on the bbc news website and app. marco rubio flew into saudi arabia from israel where he had met president benjamin netanyahu. both men praised president trump's plan to remove palestinians from gaza — and rebuild the devastated enclave as a resort. that plan has been flatly rejected by palestinians and arab nations, and would also violate international law. our middle east editor sebastian usher is injerusalem. i asked him about the cabinet meeting taking place today in israel. yes, israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu will hold that cabinet meeting. it won't be for several hours, around 6:30pm in the evening here, localtime. it has been made clear in the israeli media that will be to discus

situation which not only zelensky and his corrupt clique bear responsibility for but the sponsors of the kyiv regime also have responsibility for this in as they actively persuaded him to unleash the suicidal war against russia. mr president, we all see the processes taking place throughout the world after the entry into the office of the republican united states administration. as we called for over the course of many past months, diplomacy has only recently been brought into the game. opportunities have emerged for the prompt end to the hot phase of the ukrainian crisis. naturally, all of those currently working towards that end are analysing into area all previous attempts to bring to an end the armed confrontation in the east of ukraine. paramount among these, of course, is the minsk agreement. what lessons do the present day negotiators need to draw from the process which so abjectly failed three years ago. we are striving to provide a response to that question. first and foremost, we understand presently that the minsk guarantors, and on the whole eu countries and united kingdom, are ab

refused to answer the question that he sees ukraine as an equal partner, that caused an outrage in kyiv in general. in public we are left alone. it felt like we are on the table, not at the table. people started feeling bad today when we heard other statements from jd vance at the munich conference. they seem to have retracted from their initial position and seem to insist that ukraine's interests will be taken into account. that is a positive development. are still cautious about what we are witnessing. host: you referenced jd vance. he spent very little time on china and russia as adversaries, instead talking about europe and its values. do you still see the u.s. as a close partner to ukraine in this? guest: i still believe that the u.s. is the leader among democracies globally. i still believe that regardless of the political party at the moment, it is still in the interests of the united states to cooperate with other democracies. i can understand that the new administration is rather different image approaches to dealing with its allies. i have seen the reaction from european allie

geeta: joining me now from kyiv is ukrainian politician, mp for the servant of the people's party, chairreign affairs committee at the ukrainian parliament. thank you for being with us. we have heard a lot of voices in the last two or three days, a number of conflicting lines from some elements of the u.s. administration. i just wonder, what is your take today, given we have seen zelenskyy meeting jd vance? >> first of all, i have been listening to the speech by the vice president jd vance, and i really like his phrase that the new sheriff is in town, and i do hope the new sheriff will help to restrain and get rid of old gangster putin. this is important for us and for the whole world. additionally, what is really important, the direct meeting between our president zelenskyy and the vice president jd vance. it is crucially important because we are starting to have systematic contacts, systematic discussions, conversations with our american colleagues with the new administration. it helps to bring about mutual understanding. we can see the policy, the attitude of the new administration is

cnn is on the ground in kyiv. we're also standing by in toronto, where we are expecting a news conference at any moment on yesterday's crash where miraculously, no one was killed. >> super man, the christopher reeve story saturday at seven on cnn. >> get in on by one foot long. get one free right now in the subway app. that's right by one foot long sub. get another free deals this good. usually come with a two year contract. grab the deal online or in app with code bogo only for a limited time. >> hey, sam, what's going on? >> hey, joe. we're getting our new replacement windows installed. we went with renewal by andersen. they're replacement windows are among the best in the industry. >> good morning. >> hi, don. this is my neighbor, joe. >> nice to meet you. >> hey, don. >> providing our homeowners expert installation is our top priority. we never rush details like perfectly matching your window trim style matter to us. we always clean up thoroughly afterwards. then when the job is done, we walk you through a pro

kyiv has been bombed a week ago with ballistic missiles. so nothing has ended. and at the same time, we're seeing, you know, the new administration actually playing in russia's favor. pretty much. i mean, if you don't believe me, just name one concession russia made to be at that table today. they haven't. i mean, they're a clear victor of this. and obviously it's heartbreaking given the fact that the alliance is falling apart and we have to rely pretty much on our european allies, on turkey, on great britain, and on ourselves first and foremost. but having said that, ukraine is really good at saying no. so i wouldn't necessarily concede to the fact that ukraine will be on the table, because for us to be on the table, we need to say yes to that as well. let me remind you about kyiv in three days. >> do you think the us is a reliable ally for ukraine? can you count on the us to be there? and do you trust president trump to negotiate on on kiev's behalf? >> well, it's not a simple answer to that question. i mean, do i trust president trump? that remains to be seen

but kyiv warns against any premature agreement with moscow.t some fresh reaction right now from the european commission to president trump's announcement yesterday of reciprocal tariffs in motion. the european commission views trump's proposed reciprocal tariff trade policy as a step in the wrong direction. the eu remains committed to an open and predictable global trading system that benefits all partners. and here is the kicker. the eu will react firmly and immediately against unjustified barriers to free and fair trade. i think those are two key words, firmly and immediately, because there has been some question around what the eu response to new tariffs may look like and when. and here they are distinctly using the word immediately. so if we do see these tariffs come come through and we do see these reciprocal tariffs come to fruition. the eu is trying to push the us to get the message out that that they will be reacting firmly and immediately to what they see as unjustified barriers to free and fair trade. now what's been interesting is s

and i think that is all you need to know about where kyiv stands in the pecking order here. this peace deal is likely to be between russia and the united states, telling ukraine what they think is its best path going forwards. that is a marked change and will leave many ukrainians deeply concerned and many troops on the front lines fighting for ukraine. perhaps wondering exactly what their efforts and loss is for right now. >> sure, kim, i wonder to nick's point, if trump's view of foreign policy is purely one based on transactions and what ultimately it will benefit the united states benefit him? what does ukraine have to offer? is it these rare earth minerals? is that leverage to get trump to try to push for more out of the kremlin? >> yeah, i did speak to a ukrainian contact who was briefed on what went on in ramstein and said that they're very upset with what secretary of defense pete hegseth said about this resolution is probably not going to include ukraine as part of nato, that you're not going to see a return to ukraine's 2014 borders. all bad news. the one bright si
