up until now, america had been trying to isolate russia while standing with ukraine and america's european allies. now not in the room, ukraine and america's european allies. as for the question of territory, u.s. national security advisor mike walz was asked about that. he seemed to indicate that was up for discussion. take a listen. we know just the practical reality is that there is going to be some discussion of territory, and there's going to be discussion of security guarantees. those are just fundamental basics that will that will undergird and underlie any type of discussion. you see secretary rubio in the center, special envoy to ukraine, general kellogg on the left, again, not present anybody from the country they're talking about. and that's been noticed by the europeans. as for the security guarantees that walz was talking about, ukraine wants promises from u.s. or nato, they'll be some kind of reaction if russia invades again, some reason for russia to think twice. obviously, they you know, they're not going to trust russia's security guarantee that they're not going to invade

ukraine. the mood in munich is grim, america's allies deeply troubled that it's already given too many concessionsukraine can even negotiate its own future. britain's top diplomat spoke for most the delegates here — ukraine had to be at the table. all of us have this desire to bring this horrendous war to an end. we share the view that there has to be an enduring peace, and there was an agreement that zelensky and the ukrainians have to be part of that negotiated deal. but when america's vice president took to the main stage, his topic wasn't ukraine. this gathering stunned by an unexpected lecture that russia was not europe's main enemy, but the threat came from within. in britain, and across europe, free speech, ifear, is in retreat. now, the good news is that i happen to think your democracies are substantially less brittle than many people apparently fear, and i really do believe that allowing our citizens to speak their mind will make them stronger still. this security conference has long been rooted in a commitment to what's been known as a rules—based international order, and the worry this

. _ so what's the view from ukraine to america seemingly civilians and created more than 10 million refugeesen washington and ukraine. an extraordinary allegation from ukraine's once biggest ally. but today, i heard, "oh, well, we weren't invited." well, you've been there for three years. on his truth social platform, trump doubled down. "he's very low in ukrainian polls." "zelensky better move fast," he added, "or he's not going to have a country left." what president zelensky is not is a dictator. elections have legally been postponed here since the start to ukraine, keith kellogg, to visit. of relations. translation: it is impossible to solve many issues, - of trust between russia and the united states. i away from the politics, ukraine's capital is just trying to get on. russian tanks were expected to be in kyiv within days on that like any city, you just need to scratch beneath the surface. translation: if trump i doesn't want to be with us, the very ideals we are defending here. our guys are not fighting in vain there. we're optimistic and hopeful. from that, because my brother and my

ukraine. earlier, america's envoy to ukraine had a more conciliatory tone towards president zelenskyy, callingled and courageous leader of a nation at war. general keith kellogg said their talks had been extensive and positive. our international editor has more from kyiv. >> calling president zelenskyy a courageous leader as keith kellogg did after their talks was par for the course when joe biden and his diplomats came here. but it is very different to the harsh and mocking language used by president trump. in the government offices in kyiv, i asked one of zelenskyy's top advisers about trump's demolition of the certainties the u.s. used to offer. president trump said that ukraine started the war the other day. what did you think when you heard that? >> well, i can say it is obvious who started the war and it is raging for three years. everyone understands that. one country cannot attack another country. >> so why do you think president trump would say such a thing? >> well, i don't think that was something he really meant in terms of -- ukraine attacking russia? >> he said that ukraine start

this year's gathering is set to focus on the war and ukraine and america's changing foreign policy. leading the us delegation, vice president j. d bench began the day with a meeting with nato head, mark ruta, and call for the alliance to race defense, spending and shoulder more of the burden for security in europe. the gathering comes days after us present, donald trump alarmed europe and key by speaking to rushes. vladimir putin on the phone about a settlement to end ukraine conflict without 1st consulting them. more of that in a moment. first, this report in the battlefield in done yet in eastern ukraine, one of the regions, russia has tried to swallow and the ukrainians have fought for years to get back. last year, ukrainian president follow to me as a lensky, laid out a victory plan to world leaders that included nato membership and a return to the countries 2014 borders before russia annex the crimea province, winding diesel. it will surely be said that the roches war against the grain has ended north frozen, not paused north fulton truly. and this will have not because someone got tir

guys on site that ukraine, you're the united states and russia, that should be the list of the participants in the negotiation. he's been very clear about the fact that russia and america, i'm speaking about ukraine without you currently having a seat at the table. but he also talked about those security guarantees. he said that and then there was a need for a european home, fullest for ukraine to ensure security. and that your a could learn lessons from this particular war. and so we have this, this mineral deal being negotiated with united states. where does it stand and what? so let's keep pushing. well, andrea mac, who is the head of the president's office, a is going to the us to take part in these discussions. now donald trump, famously a very transactional president, always likes and deal, says he was $500000000000.00 worth of rent, a manuals of power, a technology pretty much in return for simple thing. ukraine. that's something the, the crating president, as lensky says, is not on the type of the size. we've only actually been given a $100000000000.00 by the americans. a also says that we should not recognize drums as that i agreed with, but previously as pres

ukraine, security guarantees. bbc�*s africa correspondent mayeni jones is covering america's top diplomat. to the conflict there. inonflict here. the issue of ukraine. put altogether they represent about 85% of the world's gdp and often these different interests seem to butt up against each other. the majority of the us�*s allies have of course... the majority of the countries here, pardon, have supported mr zelensky�*s claims he should be leading any kind of conversations around these talks, but it is already divisions taking place at the moment. what impact is that having? last night, the south african president cyril ramaphosa was keen to downplay the fact marco rubio had refused forfinance ministers. but mr ramaphosa said this didn't amount to a boycott, that they had sent a senior diplomat, that there were strong connections between south africa and the us and issues pertaining to the us could still be discussed here at the g20. this leaves south africa as the first african country to be president of the g20. they really had hoped this would be an opportunity for them to shine a light on some of the issues aff

and biden was doing with biden and biden was taking money out of the ukraine and that's what he's doing. >> i think i think american amazing deal from ukraine because america, without losing a single soldier. yeah, managed to just bleed russia to death militarily, militarily. so, you know, one of their greatest adversaries has been completely vanquished. and i guess part of the reason, you know, trump doesn't care about the ukraine war anymore is it's not necessary for america. >> not completely vanquished, though. did you say russia? yeah. putin. putin will be back. he's like the terminator. >> he'll be back. yeah. and also and also there's going to be risk for putin when those hundreds of thousands of soldiers return into russia. i mean, how is that going to destabilise the country? how is that going to destabilise things for putin? i guess we'll find out. won't that be fun to watch? anyway, that's the front page is done, but come back to find out whether migrant killings will make germans vote for the anti—migrant killings party. while labour are going to war with their donors. and how british judges let people

but someone's key says that he wouldn't be signing this deal on ukraine's resources with america since it didn't provide any security guarantees. and your asian studies academic and commutative, greg simon says that sky is likely in the end to sell anything to the trump and ministration. if it means he can hold on to power, it is does desperately need noises. time is rapidly running out. and i mean, he is absolutely nowhere to go. you some informa, i mean a town reminding you, praying for too long because someone who is um uh and that this is just pure desperation. and i think he's just trying to buy a muslim a one time bought 10 zalinski, give away to the americans to a piece of. and this is going to be a states enterprises last a and a for was and was lambs, but they have lives. so it's going to be a bias, i'll anything i'll tell you in with after the americans. and specifically the drums and from the special to the southern corporate is now here on the program where we're 2nd round a voting to attack. the next president of the republic of, of kazi, it has been announced itself that

ukraine. will america commit to having troops and ukraine will be europeans commit to having troops and ukraine to ensure that the russians can attack again. europe has been caught off guard, and europe has been making a lot of promises over the last 3 years. there's been a lot of rhetoric, there's been a lot of passion, but there hasn't been a huge amount of of follow through, particularly when it comes to germany. and france, so we've seen the baltic states, we've seen the northern states, we've seen poland really up to and see what it comes to, to weapons still deliveries. but when it comes to france and germany, not as much. so we're really watching right now to see if that they're going to be able to fill that void. and at this point, it doesn't look very good. that there's a lot of disagreement right now as to what constitutes security guarantees. and who would be willing to put physical troops in ukraine, so you're gonna have to stay tune on that one. there's this ongoing discussion of russia currently controls just on to 20 percent of the training and tara trade child stratford has been

ukraine kept coming. at this conference centre in brussels, america's new defence secretary laid out a blunt message from house. we want, like you, a sovereign and prosperous ukraine. but we must start by recognising that returning to ukraine's pre—2014 borders is an unrealistic objective. that means ukraine is going to lose land to russia. the united states does not believe that nato membership for ukraine is a realistic outcome of a negotiated settlement. instead, any security guarantee must be backed by capable european and non—european troops. to be clear, as part of any security guarantee, there will not be us troops deployed to ukraine. ukraine is also grappling with a battlefield reality of minimal progress. it is the invaders who have been dominant. tonight, president zelensky had his own call with donald trump. translation: we discussed many issues, and president trump - informed me of what putin told him. we believe that america's strength is enough, together with us, to pressure russia and putin towards peace. and that road to peace is neither going to be straight nor smooth for ukraine. james

secretary pete hegseth making waves on wednesday at a high stakes meeting of america's european allies, focusing on the war in ukrainegseth pulling back on america's support for ukraine's main objective, pushing russian troops out of the country and restoring its pre 2014 borders, saying it's no longer a realistic goal. he also says the u.s. won't support ukraine's bid to join nato, and any peacekeepers sent there will be on their own. >> if these troops are deployed as peacekeepers to ukraine at any point, they should be deployed as part of a non nato mission. >> more significantly, hegseth says the u.s. is pivoting away from europe to focus on securing the southern border and confronting china in the pacific. >> stark strategic realities prevent the united states of america from being primarily focused on the security of europe. >> the policy shift is sparking concern among some nato allies who say without u.s. involvement, russia will pursue a divide and conquer approach. >> it's important that the united states and our nato partners that we're integrated with our strategy. >> the military moves come as president

ukraine. will america commit to having troops and ukraine will be european commit to having troops and ukraine to ensure that the russians can't attack again? so those are sort of the page that i'm looking for. yeah, and it's wearing melinda, but ukraine isn't included in these tools yet. zalinski says he won't accept any deal that doesn't include cain. so always saying perhaps the beginnings of the piece deal that will be dictated to your brain and then it'll be forced to accept. not necessarily so. the, it is very strange that the aggressor is beating with the united states with without ukraine. and the longstanding policy of the, of the united states has been. nothing was nothing about ukraine without ukraine. so it's definitely a change in policy. but it could also be the most charitable interpretation it is that the united states is trying to see of russia is finally serious. i hope that's what's going on. but the, the, the worse outcome, the one you suggested is also possible. yeah. meanwhile, european leaders of scrambling all made to come up with a response to donald trump's plans to o

absolutely adamant that europe, european nations, need to pay far more towards military aid in ukraine than americakeeps saying, there is an ocean between the united states and ukraine, whereas there is not between ukraine and the rest of europe. but he hasn't withdrawn military support for ukraine, which some people were worried that he would. to ukraine's rare—earth minerals, in which it is quite rich under the soil, in return for the military aid that the us is giving ukraine. so you can see there the ways in which he is constantly trying to work out, you know, what's in it for him and how he can do a deal here. it may be that donald trump wanted to sort out, significant wins under his belt, where he could say he was delivering for the things that american voters cared most about, and that he will turn his attention to that once he feels that he's delivered on some of his domestic agenda. this weird and wonderful team that he's assembled around him, do you get the sense that they're going to last the course? i think with donald trump, it's inevitable that somebody will slam the door and walk out

no, really is somewhere between russia, ukraine and america. america may, will be just be speaking to ukraine separately, separately, and russia separately. so this conference is coming up in the next few hours is going to be very, very important for observers to see what kind of language there is and who is meeting with who. so right now, this attack in particular, is going to be one of the talking points that lensky is going to bring up in his meetings with the americans and run. thank you very much for that. and ron con, live in cave as well. president trump's plans for pace and ukraine and for the future of gaza or among the top issues to be discussed, that this is new next security conference. the summit has a farm to security and foreign policy issues and is attended by top level delegates as go to the medic editor james base, he's joining us live from unix. i'm much on the agenda. james, obviously you claim in gaza, but i saw that the, the president will also be speaking later. what are we expecting today? uh, this is an events and important events every year to look at the sta

this is only possible when negotiations are fair and ukraine, america and all of europe are represented at the negotiating table. i want to bring in nbc's keir simmons in riyadh and national security and intelligence analyst mark fema. i'm sorry. polymeropoulos, who was a long time cia veteran. mark, i promise i practiced it and i still messed it up. it's nice to see you. but first, we want to start with you. why saudi arabia? how did these talks end up there? and what is the readout of how much progress, if any, has been made? and of course, what comes next? >> well, the reason why this is happening in saudi arabia is, frankly, because of riyadh's close relationship, both with the russians and with the us. just to get to that in a moment, to answer your the other part of your question, a number of things were agreed today, mostly about america's relationship with russia. and that is a seismic change, because remember that the us has spent years, along with europe, trying to isolate moscow effectively. it unlocked that isolation. today, the trump administration, agreeing to high level t

ukraine could still lose this war. translation: if trump i doesn't want to be with us, betraying his voters, betraying america and its ideals are defending here. translation: for ukraine, everything will be all right. | our guys are not fighting in vain there. cousin were killed. and it's the same for nearly every family. i russia's aggression. james waterhouse, bbc news, kyiv. as others have said, it's deeply unfortunate. at this moment of entering the highest stakes in negotiations with russia to end this war, we want solidarity so this is being celebrated in the kremlin for sure. these remarks are almost an intervention in the upcoming some of it is fuelled by russian disinformation, some of it is home—grown maga nativism. it is resonating, what trump is saying. in the upcoming elections. which we are ignoring as we debate the veracity why do you think he would be doing that? and multicultural for him. is one way of encouraging that. that america is greater with our european allies. in fact, he'd like to do business with a successor regime in kyiv and looks forward to zelensky�*s to the tune of 500 billion. we will have

the vance. expected to outline americas change priorities in the world, including a plan for ukraine. also coming off trying to survive in gaza, people there say they're facing a new war as they struggled to find food and shelter and the devastated territory the welcome to the program. i'm nicole fairly political leaders from all over the world are converging on germany to take part in the annual munich security conference. this year's gathering a set to focus on the war and ukraine and america's changing foreign policy. leaving the us delegation, vice president j. d. vance, begin the day with a meeting with nato head, margaretta, and the call for the alliance to raise defense spending and shoulder more of the burden for security in europe. the gathering comes days after you as president donald trump alarm here of and keep by speaking to rushes, let them hear bruten about a settlement, and that you bring conflict without 1st consulting them more on that in a moment. but 1st, an update on the situation on the direct in the battlefield in done yet in eastern ukraine, one of the regions,

it would have allowed america to have a stake there, and nobody would attack to 0 ukraine if america had business there. having said that, i think if both sides could do, think the russians should be celebrating right now because they hear the rhetoric coming from the white house. i think they really want to make a deal. i do date, they found it impossible to make it. there was a landscape to take a look at what he's going to, let's assume i make a deal of getting him back many demolish cities and the bodies of many dead people rush attacked. but they shouldn't have a letter attack because they wouldn't have attacked. if they, if you had people that knew what they were doing, joe biden is a very dumb man who right is dumber than ever before. cuz you know, things have happened to him. he had no idea what he was doing. and everything he said was wrong. and i said, you know what, i think this guy's going to cause, i think, is going to cause a war. that's what happened. and i will tell you a boot and you'd have been to attend to that so easy. but they didn't know how to talk with us. sec

now, now, also, i'd like to make the point that america is what is standing between ukraine and completeontrol by putin. if it wasn't for america's billion dollars, america's £350 billion dollars, as trump puts it, this war would be over in the’ as trump puts it, this war would be over in the case? as trump puts it, this war would be over in the case. let's not absolutely the case. let's not let's be realistic about this. america fighting this war. america is fighting this war. america is fighting this war. america is fighting this war. america is funding this war. of course, what's going to happen is the two war, are going to fighting this war, are going to talk, and that is the americans and the russians. ukraine is in the i? the'i'dea that america is, is >> the idea that america is, is the principal funder of the war in against russia. in ukraine against russia. >> no, this is just. >> no, this is just. >> the fact, the. >> the fact, the. >> idea that not even >> the fact, the. >> debate at not even >> the fact, the. >> debate insurmountable is ridiculous. for only $100, for only $100

i want to begin by asking you if you think that america understands what russia's strategic objectives are at this time, not just towards ukraineunderstands what those objectives are? in your view, what is vladimir pugin want to do at this point --what does vladimir putin want to do at this point? >> i think the idea that putin wants peace, that is completely wrong, or that putin wants to stop even war. putin benefits from the war because it allows him to strengthen his dictatorship and intimidation in russia itself and deserves -- serves's long-term interest in humiliating, in discriminating, and undermining as much as possible the nato countries, european countries, in america. so it's clear, absolutely clear that zelenskyy is great war president, and by the ukrainian constitution, he just cannot have elections right now. and he won election. but mr. trump is elected president fairly and clearly, elected president of the united states. and i think he wants -- he is desperate to do something very different, you know. in business there is his trump business. i was also in business last 25 years, and there is a very useful notio

the ukraine and america's deteriorating relationship has been dealt another blow. us president donald trump has doubled down an anti ukraine rhetoric saying the country needs to come to the negotiating table despite body ukraine's leadership from any adults with russia. i've had very good talks with put and i've had not such good talks with ukraine. they don't have any cards, but they play a tough but we're not. we're not gonna let this continue. this is worse to have. it would have never happened if i were president. but it did happen so i got stuck with it and the whole world is stuck with it. and right now you have a country that has its cities, they look like demolition sites. those beautiful towers, those 1000 year old golden domes, that was so beautiful the most beautiful in the world. they say they're all in smithereens. millions of people are killed. i think far more people than anyone understands mand. so we have people that better get to the table, get it ended tom's comments, comments. i've ministration pushes key to sign a controversial where of minerals agreement, discuss
