u. s. and e u creating the worst fracture. and the transatlantic relationship since world war 2 rushes, diplomatic isolation is out of us. so is it time for the european allies to great new economic and military strategies? mostly that will mean for ukraine will be asking those questions to, i guess in a moment. but 1st, this report from alexandra buys, for many people watching around the world, an extraordinary change and relationship senior officials from the us and russia together at an negotiating table for 4 and a half hours in the saudi capital on tuesday. the 1st meeting of its kind since russian forces invaded ukraine 3 years ago, the law campaigning for the presidency. donald trump said he would end the war lab blaming keys for starting it. this could have been settled very easily. just a half a half baked negotiator could have settled this years ago without isaac, without the loss of much land, very little land without the loss of any lives. neither the ukrainian president nor european leaders were invited to the meeting and re add a move that's angry to many lot them years. a lengthy postponed a plan to visit, to saudi arabia on wednesday, saying he didn't want to with jeremiah as the topics both sets of flu. i thought, you know, but all of this definitely doesn't have a positive impact on you crap. the less inclusion out of isolation, and i think coaching and russia are really happy because they're involved in discussions. and yesterday there was signals the day of the victims. that's something you even so the us is pushing ahead, announcing plans to create teams for peace talks. washington says it will continue consulting keys and brussels, but direct negotiations will only be with moscow. and it's made clear that all options are open. in order to bring it into any conflict, there has to be concessions made by all sides. we're not going to predetermine what those are. the us has floated russia, keeping ukrainian territory. it seized the lifting of sanctions on moscow and its re admission to the g 7. and the blocking of ukraine's long sought membership of nato. but i'm used to go to the as the president trump was the 1st and i think the only western leader as publicly and loudly said that the one of the root causes of the ukrainian situation was the input in line of the previous administration to draw ukraine into nato. no western leader has said that, but he said it repeatedly, both kremlin and the white house, say a meeting between president trump and pollutant is planned for the next month or 2 all while the war continues on the ground. after 3 years of fighting, it's officially claimed 150000 lives, but international monitors degree. the actual death tool is likely to be much higher. alexandra buyers, alda 0 for inside story. the. well, let's discuss all this further with, i guess today on the program in washington, dc and a to leave and director of the racial program at the quincy institute and a member of the file club, the russian think tank and most andre colton of political analyst also and full met director general of the russian international affairs council. and it doesn't go off in germany. mateo nellis political analyst and see of the german ukrainian bureau a think tank. thank you. all 3 of you for talking to us. pretty important developments with regard to ukraine and the toll. let me start with you. how significant is what we seen in riyadh, not just for ukraine, but for the global or whether it's an immense significance that's it seems to come from ministration a wants to bring russia back into some form of a new security architecture in russia. in europe. i mean, if that can be achieved, it would be transformative because this is something that russians, i'm not just russians. i mean many europeans as well as hope for since the end of the cold war, but you have not achieved. but of course, um, this depends on the success of the peace negotiations on ukraine. and there is an enormous amount which is still not clear on certain things have been decided to overall the actually just to recognize because they've been clear so many years such as a new credit, even neutrality of others. cool. so many other things about the details of the oven, eventually piece of them into a roommate and totally unclear. and we still don't know for sure that such a supplement can be a treat. andre, this meeting last is just over 4 hours. but how important do you think could be the repercussions going forward as well? uh, judging from the initial reactions that we cover the seats here in the most cool. uh, the solution. uh seal. so more or less, uh, uh, heavier, with the outcome, whole this meeting, of course. so these up to me is, is qualified, so they don't want to inflate public expectations. therefore, they argue that we are just in the very beginning of a bit along the road. and they also emphasize the importance of change and the bi left her relationship, specifically the relationship between the united states. and that was consideration . a lot of emphasis is put on the reservation of the diplomatic dialogue. i. and i think that on the, you can set something to do is probably less or to missing and less informations that there are some side uh, can share at this particular juncture. all right, i'm going, i'm going to have and you, you seem to suggest that playing it rather cool in moscow, but this must be very good news for fort brewton and his government. well, you know, again, you know, i don't want to say that they moved the east pessimistic about the, the clear to tied to manage public expectations. not to create impressions that we're moving towards a new reset. and but the overall or the action that is clearly positives and this is a very ethical departure from the earlier comments on the u. s. foreign policy. ready and even though the foreign policy all the time, but ministries, okay, not to you, they all worried about this. i think it's fair to say where you are in germany and across western europe, a quote to you from joint you've lives in the form of a french foreign minister. it's a reversal of the state to the will since 1945. we do agree with them, i certainly would agree with that and we, europeans, we just are taking it back by the astonishing speed or for the peace to be the normalization of the russian federation. again, after 3 years of intensive diplomatic pressure by the sanctions, military, supposedly ukraine recede of the ending of the united, you know, wisdom efforts to bring about. and then to this one, ukraine and of course talks essentially were to be expected. but then no happening that i wouldn't call them the go. she ation said, these are talks between russian america over the heads of the premiums over the heads of your things. and that is certain

u. s. and china low collins, the e. u, is bracing itself for potential economic for loud as hello. trump is also freezing us overseas. a raising questions about the future of assistance programs around the world. america has until now bringing the biggest single international down to the us government agency for international development or us a id helps millions across the world from vice of food supplies in some bob way and shed to emergency disaster responses in haiti. what live saving medical equipment and ukraine us a id is the world's largest humanitarian air provider. now it's future things in the balance with donald trump's proclaimed america fist policy run by a bunch of radical we're getting them out and we're getting them out at the top. in 1961 us, a id is funded by the us government and had a budget with around $40000000000.00 in 2023. less than one percent of the total state are a bunch of it's responsible for aiden development in strategically important countries. all those and conflicts and works in around

e. u. the u. s. president. donald trump says that the ukranian president best to move fast or he won't have a country left. it follows comments 5 loderman savanski, that trump is trapped in a this information bubble made by russia. the u. s. president has suggested ukraine, was that folds for russia's invasion, and that he should have negotiates a piece earlier. and a post on the truth social platform. trump said the following about is it ends gate . he refuses to have elections is very low, and the ukranian poles and the only thing he was good at was playing by didn't quote like a settled or from continues that a dictator without elections. lensky better move fast. always not going to have a country left. in the meantime, we are successfully negotiating and then to the war with russia, something all of it only trump. i'm the trump administration can do as close to our white house correspondent give me hope of a reaction from giving the landscape verbal lashing. then not social media post. it's not

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.

busy ester e, u and u. s. foreign policy, as constructive program that he wants to adopt toward the russian, so they label them as some kind of extremist. all right, the fact we have to leave you here now. thank you very much, said jeremy, who is more of managing editor. how about corvette after the magazine pencil? you're inside here. thank you. right. moving on now, a broken country. that's how a foster this family member has described, the situation in eagle eye, she also did now to prime minister netanyahu for disclosing bruce some details about the death of federal use. readies tailed in gaza. as publishing such information over the family's repeated requests was abused for its own sake of a family that has gone through 16 months of hell and still has the worst ahead. dark days for israel and the needs for his government on wednesday, the countries of golf and profound grief as thousands gather to mourn the tragic loss of she receive us and her 2 young songs are we all and they are both on the 5 years ol

u. s. is handling things and that is e u foreign policy chief kind call is also notably a former as don't in prime minister. so these are kind of things you would expect to hear from a prime minister, but she was clearly very insulted. the europe had not been consulted before this phone call with prudent had not been you know, um, it did not been discussed with europe what, what might be offered, what kind of conditions might be acceptable, lets here where she got the se. so you feel like this deal has already been started to be made behind your backs. and what are you going to do personally, to make sure that as ministers are saying your need to see that the table we do service you to the table, but you need to make sure that you actually do have that seat, not just to represent your interest but also ukraine's, which are linked to your own security. how can you make sure of this, as i say, any agreement without the suite phase, because you need your up for a new crane to also implement the agreement. so without this a have to table, you know, you can agree on, on whatever, but it will just simply say because of the, the implementation is not there. any quick fix is the, is it does it in the. so we have seen before when it comes to minutes, for example, and even just simply not work, it will not stop the killing. it will not stop the war. yeah, it won't stop the killing won't stop the war. but what really do, but terrible. i mean what, what you read on that or she was interesting we using from own words that he could stop the killing. so i think a high representative call has put some thought into what she was going to say in response to what the us is doing. but you know, she's pointing out that the pegs have said it wouldn't be the europeans who would be responsible both financially and sort of logistically for carrying out any eventful ceasefire. but then all of the conditions are being dealt with above the european said sort of, it's going to be handed down to europe. what kind of implementation is going to be responsible for? and this simply isn't acceptable in the views of, of kind of colors nor many of the ministers who we heard from this morning at nato headquarters. interior colors also told you that europe would continue to back you crate, even if the united states turns its back on. keep. is there support for that for europe to go it alone? to in fact, she said that she expects that you quit, or ukraine will resist these conditions. she said, but ukraine will resist and europe will continue to support ukraine in that. now that's something we did hear from a lot of countries as they came in to nato today. all of the countries who are strong supporters of ukraine, the nordic countries, the baltic states said, you know, they're just going to push on forward with continuing to provide weapons to ukraine . it to the maximum of their capabilities. because the point that europe wants to make, and even p, texas said this is that ukraine should be in a strong position. you know, when it comes to the table and the european se, if it comes to the table. and you can't say that ukraine is in that strong military position right now. so i think the view of the european allies is, you know, we're just going to keep calm and carry on providing weapons to ukraine until president zaleski decides he doesn't need them anymore. exit said that native membership for ukraine would not be a realistic outcome. could ukraine then be given some form of a native of light protection instead of full membership as well? let me take a part of the question a little bit. uh headsets said yesterday, that nato membership would not be part of this negotiated outcome. now a lot of people took issue with that statement because natal membership isn't something to be negotiated between trump and putting or putting in zalinski or trump zalinski. that's something that all nato allies will have to agree to at some point, and they've promised to do so when conditions are right. so that statement was a little confusing. and as tyson mentioned earlier, hex as a walk that back today, he was asked specifically, what did you mean by you deciding you, you, the united states deciding that you can't, can't become a nato member? he said, oh no, that's uh, you know, going to be up to president trump, whether she puts that on the table in negotiations. but when it comes to, whether you're creating couldn't be offered some kind of security guarantees through nato without nato membership. that's not going to fly. it has me bilateral security agreements with all of the allies in nato, which of course don't add up to article 5, the guarantee. but i think you crane has the extent of security guarantees. it's going to be able to get for the moment bilaterally, with a war raging on its territory. yeah, this is not the place we thought we would be 3 years ago when this war was about to begin. that's a sure the w if terry schultz in brussels tonight, terry is always thank you or whether they like it or not, you creating and face a future that will be determined in part by the negotiating strategy of us president donald trump. ukrainian president zalinski also knows who he's dealing with and that goes for trump and for food. today the landscape pushed back boys in concerned about being sidelined by the 2 leaders, a little initial set and it's important that everything does not go according to parents' plan. in which he wants to do everything to make his negotiations with bilateral reduced between humans and united states of america down letter, we use the solver and countries simply will not be able to accept any agreements without as not going to e mail. and would you keep the moving us to business? all right, our coverage continues. now. we want to go to ukraine's capital or corresponding economy joins me. nick, the united states, even if they're pulling back so many, they still throwing out this idea of no return to pre 2014 borders for ukraine. no need or membership anytime soon for ukraine, even if they are pulling back a little bit on some of these statements. this must be a massive body blow to ukraine. no question, but this was a shock and i think it was more even about the tone, especially if the gushing post we had from donald trump about his school was pushing that it was about the substance. the sense from that post of who's that this is a man who doesn't see anything particularly bad in taking other people's character . you doesn't feel the need to make clear who is the address and who is the victim . obviously we've heard trump talk about taking a bit some of the tension and kind of that greenland panama. so that wasn't maybe surprising, but to see it spelled out like that was a shock. if you looked at that 1st come through it. so i suppose it seemed like he was just going to inform zalinski in the end they spoke for about an hour versus 90 minutes with preaching. but still, there is a real worry that this is ministration that wants to come up stairs of influence and potentially is willing to let russia habits have influence in europe and then focus on the western hemisphere for instance. and do the same with china. that is a little really far away from where we were a couple months ago with the light and team. but i think i'm at a level it was expected. and now it is obviously the kind of job of, of zalesky to do the best he can with what he's been given and to warn everyone in which he's done today will so that russia is not up for peace on any kind of kind of basis that you crank and accept and basically, and we for the rest of officials talk about it. they still want the same, they want it back in 2022. we we heard president zalinski saying that he would not accept an agreement worked out by a laterally between the united states and russia. i am just wondering, nick, i mean, does he, does he really have a choice? see? well, i think for now he's definitely going to keep those differences with trump team. pine close doors. he's not going to express his emotions to clearly, even though he probably would want to. he is doing his best to play on the right side of trump in any place, a blame game when those talks, which it's expected here in cuba, will eventually run up against basically portions and transients and pickens on willingness to give any ground to inputs. and basically, still talks about the fact that ukraine is an illegitimate country, that shouldn't exist. that ukraine's all mean should be so small that it basically can never defend itself, that ukraine should be outside nato and potentially even outside the u. s. so that these are all things that you know, from the ukraine perspective, they think that the trump team haven't understood yet. that pictures don't wanna get around. they mean the jump team to see me need to think that trump's personal tom is deal of making skills can change that. but there's expectation here that this is going to run into a brick wall sooner or later. and then that is in the jobs for ukraine. to talk to trump, it's try and get them on the side to make the people of ukraine. however, they've been reacting to the events of the past 24 hours, a sort of head scratching people, just not understanding what it is that puts in and trump have agreed if they've agreed anything, a tool and obviously a fear of being sold down the river that is obviously alone. we have all these use of this rule that is being the main figure that some points western countries will lose interest. and ukraine side is too difficult to expensive and give up. we spoke some older people here in cu

rush up, but the european countries, the imposition of sanctions on russia, cost the e u. far more then it costs the u. s. and that's, and there is a real effort to foist even more of the cost of the war it's past then going forward on to the european countries while maintaining the sanctions as much as they can, the cost of that on to the us. so we'll have to see there is a great consternation those because everyone knows when there is a shift in the narrative, then everything becomes unbalanced. well, you'll figure out who pays adding says we'll do then, is it shut off? as long as you have a new, we know that you trump for to promise and the war in afghanistan day one of those last history. she continued for 4 years. the 1st time is that time also promise. if she was gonna, you know, open that for us, out of natal unit isn't half. and the funding to nato seems that increases. so because we need to in a we should be cautious in my opinion. so as we go forward, but this may be a recognition of reality. us efforts to really bring down russia did not succeed and new opportunities for instead for russia ope

well, the e u has no choice. if the u. s. which is a deal with russia. there's literally you can do the, you can't carry this war forward on his own. and uh, and zalinski is highly dependent on us support. so if there is a us russian deal, but that's kind of the ends of the game. but have wherever i think that that, that zalinski is uh, hold on power is very weak and there will be uh, uproar in the nationalist camp and we have no idea what the words know. we are the cleaners going uh what the future holds. oh, what is going to happen to the government the our if a piece of the deal has reached or while we have to leave you here now dondo laza rage on the list and also thank you so much for your insight here. thank you. great . the all, i close the whole now, what about largest oil, a pumping stations in vasa was attacked overnight on sunday by 7 ukrainian drones of the company operating the facility claims that the attack did a break lead target the decisions bus. now the terrorist attack was carried out by 7 unmanned aerial vehicles loaded with metal pr

u. s. o trump and pretend we're actually having a personal conversation, as trump said yesterday, announcing the start of immediate negotiations for peace. and now the e. u is acting like it's just been done by uncle sam who's committing the adding insult with hanging around with its acts. if there is agreements made behind our backs between simply not torque, because you need for any kind of dean, any kind of agreement, you need europeans to implement this the you need the ukrainians to implement this state. yeah, you can't break up with me. you need me, that sounds not crazy at all. and you even have the german defense industry yelling from the katy table over to the at all table trying to tell trump and food and how they should be conducting negotiations. now the dollars using this is obviously it's on fortunate and i say this truthfully, the trump administration had already made public admissions to put them before negotiations. i've even, but gone on from my point of view, it would have been better to talk about ukraine's possible nato membership or the countries lots of territory only at the negotiating table and not take it off the table beforehand. sounds like your opinion leaders are currently experiencing all 5 states of grief at once. well, frantically refreshing your inboxes to see if maybe the u. s. or russia have noticed their total meltdowns and maybe slid into their gm's and not just taking it as a confirmation that ghosting them entirely was maybe the best way to handle the situation when they're already sounding like they're on the verge of throwing every dish in the cupboard straight across the room, europe has to be part of these negotiations. it's not the question at all. otherwise, this space will not be a long lasting this piece will not be the piece we would like to see in my message . these discussions will be that they can be no negotiation about ukraine without you price. our position is that to ukraine. if he chooses to negotiate should be negotiating from a position of strength and sweetness, quote, committed to make sure that you create it has to have the ability. so your p and ministers and delegations had been meeting here in paris earlier this week for what they thought was very important strategy session only to realize that they were basically just holdi

u. s. one had less critical language when it comes to russia, special military operations and ukraine, and demanded to be swift. and to the conflict. and the 12th resolution from ukraine and e u, i see your best. it's still, we're fast to the conflict of this so called full scale invasion and demand uh, immediate, an unconditional withdrawal of russian troops. the general assembly should take people to go in determining the basis for the just and last piece and ukraine and in you as well as it stands in pacific on a team of all states, a clear message high to voting russian and busted at to the un receiving events that he actually judge those costing that votes not to be deceived. you mean should find you, quote sure, sure, no less panic is felt in a number of european capitals where all these years, they know certainly help the key of click and covered up its crimes, but also not should rest of phobia read on trades and fabrications about the goals and objectives of a special military operation and as a result, inflated such a huge bubble of lies from which it is now very difficult for them to guess out because they tried to ignore the fact that the winds have changed. undec

e u countries need to step up. this spending on defense to 5 percent, and he wants all of them to speak realistically about the war in ukraine, and he denied that the u. s. has betrayed you crying after donald trump spoke for an hour and a half with his russian count of it positively demand posing, trying to agree on terms for a long term settlement to the war. we're going to present back to semi o r n, who's professor of public affairs and director of the center for as long and global affairs. it's as simple as i am university. thank you very much for sticking with us here. we will, i want to talk a little bit about all the comments that uh, president trump has made and we can just listen into to what he said in regards to the war and cancer in recent dies. do us, we'll take over the gaza strip and we will do a job with the 2 without it as far as i'm concerned, if all of the stages are returned by saturday at 12 o'clock, i think it's an appropriate time i would say cancel it and all that so rough and let hell break out with united states being in control of that piece of land to fairly large piece of land. you're gonna have civility in the middle east
