ukraine has fought under excellence or threat. it has survived as far as it had with help from allies. i think ukraine that it might help ukraines very effective. what we are saying now is more transactional driven era of relations. of course, that is a stance that is probably unacceptable to ukraine when they see russia being cosied up to and offered everything at once and ukraine is being told he must accept all these terms and treated like the aggressor not the victim, it is a very hard thing to bear. not the victim, it is a very hard thing to b view this ukraine. if you view this merely for that business lens, if you viewed ukraine as a business in trouble but trump said, we can help you but it will cost you a lot, ukraine can take a different deal. there is an option, europe delivers the ukraine that i think there is very uncertain. europe has a lot of its own problems and there is a constant fear that he must have us a backstop. we are seeing the potential prize of this can be very high. so come down to whether europe pull together today or if they will do it in a few years, which could be much more expensive. or whether

ukraine in its national security while we do the same here? p.m. starmer: energy security in ukraine is incredibly important. it is being attacked every day pray that is why it is vitally important that we help ukraine defend its own energy arrangements but also work toward a lasting peace that allows them to prosper the way we all want in ukraine. >> i welcome the government's commitment to increasing defense spending. but i am troubled by it being done entirely on the back of t e at budget. it was encouraging to see it linked to jobs in northern i reland. what reassurances can he give that it will boost british growth? p.m. starmer: i thank her for her question. i am pleased the announcement over the weekend was for jobs in belfast, hugely important. that is the model we should follow. we should be looking at supporting u.k. jobs, the u.k. economy, and the secure skilled jobs that go with it should be in our economy because economic security is important in the u.k. as defense security is important. >> can i join with those thanking the prime minister for setting out how clearly the safety of the world relies on this moment in the future of ukraine? i for 1 am saddened he is no longer in his place

ukraine. keith has agreed to jointly develop its riches, including oil and gas with the us, instead of an investment fund. so ukraine's reconstruction. ukraine also wants guarantees on security and money for weapons. the us wants to break china is grip on the wells middle supply chains. but is it a win win deal? or is ukraine being exploited? alexandra buyers reports for decades. ukraine's been known as the bread basket of europe. but it's also one of the continents, most mineral rich nations folding, vast reserves of elements needed to power technology like lithium and titanium. essential for batteries, aviation, and military industries. anything with a micro chip needs a rare earth mineral, and rapid advances are powering a global raise to develop and source these key raw materials. the ground beneath ukraine is believed to hold 5 percent of the world's total reserves, worth an estimated 12 trillion dollars. the u. s. has just a fraction of that. and for years china has been the world's number one supplier for america, the world's biggest economy, that's become more and more of a problem. and he cannot make a national security risk. they a

ukraine produced some a weapons for itself. marina, is that a mass or here? in other words, does europe have more leverage in just funding ukraine more than perhaps, sending troops on the ground and going, you know, following roberts logic, if they fund ukraine, ukraine, build its own weapons manufacturers, more of them and becomes a more robust foe against russia. better able to defend against russia and therefore gain more leverage in any potential discussions. but seems to me like we're talking about a process that would play out over years that i pay fully agree with you. because i'm here in lies a problem. the europeans do not have a strategy or let's say, a viable and state for hauser war and ukraine shoot. and so there is this desired and state that to expel the russians from only korean territories including crimea . but we have to ask ourselves, do we have the capabilities and we have the political will to execute the strategy without risking a nuclear war. and we have to talk about it. we have seen, put in trying to re establish the power of nuclear deterrence back in october of 2024. when he launched our asinique. therefore, i think um, on the one hand that has to be some common ground in terms of what we're going to do in terms o

ukraine. i guess the question in washington would be now, if the passions cool, can people think this through and really understand that the u.s. assistance going to ukraine was not just to help ukraineecause it was also in america's interest to stop russia and ukraine said that he did not have a greater russia threat a year down the road. but at this point, i also think it makes sense for ukraine and the europeans to be talking about, how do you support ukraine if in fact trump cuts off american assistance, which i believe would be a mistake but may well be possible. helena: the point that president zelenskyy appeared to be making today and has consistently made over these past few years is give us weaponry and we will fight this war, essentially, so it does not spread further. i just wonder whether you think that ukraine can continue to actually fight this war. we are not just talking about a cease-fire deal, but fighting this war without the support of the united states. steven: i think the absence of american support will hurt if trump decides to end it. european leaders have made clear they will continue to support ukraine, that will help, but also do not underestimate the resil

ukraine. ukraine which was invaded without provocation. ukrainecities and people are targeted the infrastructure is targeted. you create up to 700,000 of their children, children have been brought into russia against their will, against the will of their parents. adopted out to russian families to become russian citizens. that is right. it is grotesque. i see how little people talk about pooches part how little they talk about his role this war. how little you read about or you hear about it. zelenskyy, you had a putin a victory in only you can fix it. donald trump is offered ukraine and you a lifeline. a lifeline. to build your ties with the united states. to build your economy. to build up your country. so that you can contribute your own defenses as well. but you blew it. you blew it and you need to fix it. what was in this deal in part? it was a good deal the preliminary agreement that investment fund will be set up for ukraine's reconstruction. the fund would be managed on equal terms. there is no america coming in and all the rest of it. acc

ukraine without america bullshit. and so that, so we do have to accept the position that we're in and the position that ukraine isn't as much as we may not blanket. and so, as far as i can see, bringing the americans in, offering something that from can accept the critical materials deal from ukraine's perspective, crated defense spending. a larger amounts of funds coming from europe to support ukraine. ukraine is in europe. it's not in north america. so the americans do have the point. yeah, that's the best way, but i think you'll be very dangerous for the europeans to think that they could go this alone without the americans. this might sound fish, but many back is of donald. trump basically said this is how he is planned at all. that is the, the missing with the landscape in the white house was, was a bit to try and force europe together and to step up and, and do much more than it has been doing, especially when it comes to defense spending. uh, what do you make of, of, of that idea? i think broadly that that's correct. i wouldn't say that trump is a 3 d chess class. trump who said consistently with things 2016 and even since the 19 ages in the 1990s. but europe is a free rider in terms of security and on trade. and he has actually been rather predictable in that sense. and so w

ukraine's reconstruction ukraine also wants guarantees on security of money for weapons. the us wants to break china is grip on the world's middle supply chains. boss. what does that deal will be signed remains to be seen off to that route between the leaders of the 2 nations at the white house. alexandra biased reports for decades, ukraine's been known as the bread basket of europe. but it's also one of the consonants. most mineral rich nations holding vast reserves of elements needed to power technology like lithium and titanium. essential for batteries, aviation, and military industries. anything with a micro chip needs a rare earth mineral, and rapid advances are powering a global raise to develop and source these key raw materials. on the ground beneath ukraine is believed to hold 5 percent of the world's total reserves worth an estimated 12 trillion dollars. the u. s. has just a fraction of that. and for years china's been the world's number one supplier for america, the world's biggest economy, that's become more and more of a problem. it's and he can on a national security risk. they all know so many american companies was able to mine and produce rats within the us. and in order to avoid the chinese will take over britain in raf commodities and build up potentials mine. there is an option for the americans, but mo

ukraine on the topic of who must be president, as he would represent the party that fights for democratic values. anyway, the president of ukraine will have to be chosen not at lindsey graham's home, but in ukraine. it appears that as long as lensky is having trouble accessing the reality, that is no longer treated as a hero in washington after the republicans took because from the democrats as all season saskia taylor explains a time slice when you'll having fun. and boy did he have stock? photo colors standing ovations chop shows and red carpets, honeywood, saws and haughty hugs, but 3 is on the landscape, is finally nothing. that is good, things come to an end. actually, i know he is used to hearing that as long as it takes as much as it takes blank check. and the united states really doesn't have much of a say you can determine the outcome of all of this. that's what he heard for years from biden and his team. and he has not gotten the memo that this is a new sheriff in town. this is a new president, and we are determined to take a new approach towards peace. and if he still hoped that he could plan more out of the whole, he dug for himself during the oval office. masika was showing that hop

ukraine's neighbour, the prime minister of poland, donald tusk, who simply said to ukraine, "you are not alone." it's been interesting seeing president zelensky individually thank each post in solidarity online. he even still thanked america for its support, as he continues to work towards what he calls a "just peace". a ceasefire deal, whether its related to a mineral agreement or otherwise, a ceasefire deal that contains a military assurance in some way from america. instead, today could have been the moment that america cut ukrainese, leaving it with its european allies to try and work outjust how they will stand up to russian aggression in the future. tonight, sirens have gone once more. the sirens have wailed, as they do in cities across ukraine, and ukraine feels a slightly lonelier country tonight, after what we saw in the oval office. our russia editor steve rosenberg has the latest from moscow. well, so far, president putin hasn't said anything about what happened in the white house. but then again, president putin doesn't need to say anything about what happened to the white house. not right now. he can afford to allow events to play out. i mean, earlier, donald trump said "this is going to be great television," and you can just imagine vladimir putin sitting in front of the television set enjoying the spectacle of his enemy, the leader of the country he invaded three years ago, being so publicly rebuked by the president of the united states and the vice president, in front of the world's media. so no com

ukraine. at the minute. ukraine doesnt ukraine. at the minute. ukraine doesn't have any air superiority. o diplomacy with putin. and i think donald trump's the and i think donald trump�*s the only one that can do it to play face, but we're having to see them to at least put a no fly zone across the ukraine and put some troops on the ground once that mineral agreement signed. >> do you remember when we were all discussing that when russia first invaded ukraine? we were all discussing we need a new a no fly zone. i completely agree with that. i know the dangers of it. but everyone backed off. and that's why we're in this situation. >> because it's weak tory >> because it�*s weak tory leadership under that. >> weak tory leadership, i think a lot of them are weak, indecisive and don't really know indecisive and don�*t really know what they�*re doing at all. but what they're doing at all. but let�*s hope that the press let's hope that the press conference that we're about to go to in a matter of moments will give us some of the answers, and we'll find out exactly what's going on if exactly wha

ukraine is a continuation of the incitement of the care of regina to wage a war against us. on top of star wars plans to send the actual troops to ukraine. this so called coalition of the willing is also apparently signed another loan to ukraine over $2000000000.00 worth 5 according to storm or is own words. not everyone in the west is on board with this whole the tradition of the willing yes. a number of company has been dictated today that they want to be part of the plan that we are developing. i'll leave them to make their own statements about exactly how they want to make that contribution. but we've been able to move that forward. i accept without criticism and with respect of the position of other countries that may not feel that they will contribute in that way. but i strongly feel that unless some move forward, we will stay in a position where we're in and not be able to move forward, and therefore it is a deliverance. a plan to show that we get some momentum of pace here. now henry's prime minister, victor, oregon, is especially unhappy with this news because to him, i mean, it looks like the european union just wants to keep seeing this war go on and on, despite the fact that russian, the us are right now providing

something larger in ukraine's relationship with the united states, which is the subject of the podcast, but also in ukraine's relationship with europe because you have this moment where ukraine becomes independent but everybody continues to look at ukraine through the lens of russia, and that includes european countries who see ukraine to some degree as a transit situation for russian natural gas and i guess there is this -- we clearly see from the trump administration that this has not changed in the case of the united states. we are back to thinking of ukraine as something that you negotiate directly with moscow about without even having ukrainians at the table. has europe learned the lesson that we clearly have not learned? constanze: i knew when i signed up for this i was going to be the damned european on this panel. i think there is a lot a fair criticism to law but europe and germany over its behavior in the past 10 years, including the fears of the trolls -- scholz -led coalition escalation. that said, i do think circumstances have changed completely. the other place i went to before the munich security conference was brussels. i spent three days running around nato

ukraine. ukraine has a biological research facilities which is in fact we are now quite concerned russian troops. russian forces may be seeking to gain control of so we are working with the ukrainians on how they can prevent any of those research materials from falling into the hands of the russian forces should they approach based on recover documents. it's known over 20 labs of working on the united states programs in ukraine, a load all around 300 sim with ascentis. don't sit around the globe. whatever happens behind the high fences surrounding them is on the russian diplomats trying to raise the issue of the un security council, special meeting of the states that is up to the level of support interest. the shrub of voice in various receive mode would give it to be ideal if they do much invitation with most for women. and we don't bill us to shop a bunch of them. so i'm just not gonna, i'm gonna dispute the product. notice we're starting and you will because of the global waste. nobody's doing it. he's giving you the chance at least points and you guys can just needs squarespace to those stuckey people. i mean, any billing stores, they're like, excuse me. he will number really interesting again to book the use of just it was a continuous go for a muslim tequila isn't shorter to use solutions. those companies in the us and its allies belong the final resolution. citizens of other countries probably haven't
