kremlin, the release of f s b hit man. vadim crossteck off was a deal breaker for german chancellor, olaf schultz. it was a difficult but necessary decision of the box up to some of the prisoner exchanges . a delicate, both have of the circumstances. but this one had particular relevance for gemini young. and jim and chancellor laughed. schultz played a pivotal role in executing the swamp. that's because the key figure, returning back to russia was this man vadim classic gulf. he was sentenced to life in prison for the 2019 mode. and berlin of a georgian who had fought along side chechen militants. it was a politically complicated decision for germany, not least because of the brazen this of the murder. it took place in broad daylight and input in puck, just minutes away from the parliament and sean slurry. you know, try to talk about nothing, makes this decision to default and the address sentence to life imprisonment. after running a few years in prison, an easy one. the state's interest in enforcing the prison sentence to be weighed up against the freedom and danger to life and limb of innocen

openly in front of the press, right at the white house he did right beside german chancellor, olaf schultz who just stood there, kind of zoned out. and now they casually dropped the stories suggesting that it took them 2 years to find a suspect and back inconveniently managed to just disappear into creating the minute they decided that they wanted to arrest him. now the german press has run a photo of the suspect, where in his full diving year, just in case anybody needs a little less subtlety. with all of this, he didn't actually have any explosives within in the photograph, so, and reached by phone. the suspect apparently told the judge impressed that he has nothing to do with any of this and is pushing back on germany's accusations who's publicly presented evidence seem to begin and ends with trust me, bro. well now the ukrainian divert who was allegedly, with this test page during the nordstrom blast, has dismissed only allegations a slot that were heard from german politician alexander on best match. he said to us and ukrainian involvement. the attack is undeniable. this on thinkable

the chancellor, olaf schultz, saying that perpetrators saying that perpetrator must be caught quicklyabout the incident itself? because there were reports that he was stabbing random passers by? yes. again, some of those reports are also quite contradictory. what police have said... some police officers have said that he appears to have targeted certain people. that's one suggestion from some police officers. so, they're calling it an attack. they're not calling it a rampage, as some attacks would be called if it seems completely random. but they're also not calling it a terror incident as yet, because they don't see any motive or any confirmed motive which would point to a terror related incident. so, so far, police are just calling it an attack because it does seem, according to some officers, that he might have targeted certain victims. but again, we haven't had a full confirmation of that just yet. what actually happened on the ground was, round about 9.40 in the evening during... there was all sorts of concerts... there was music going on. there were djs playing during this, this

keir starmer sees his path to resetting the relationship with the eu through berlin and with olaf schultzme from the same sort of wing of politics, although the german chancellor has got elections or there are going to be elections coming up in a year, but nobody is talking about renegotiating in the sort of way we might have thought about it when the brexit negotiations were going on. nobody is talking about freedom of movement, even with that youth mobility scheme there. they're talking about security. they're talking about trade and they're talking about defence. and purists would say, well, none of those things can change dramatically unless you re—enter some part of the eu system. well, there are things that can be done and you can reset and improve relations over time. labour think they can without giving too much away. but adam will know better than me that brussels is where the sort of decisions are made about changing any of the sort of bilateral relations, they're not going to change their infrastructure, so i will be fascinated to see where this pathway ends and what labour can

i will add that the german chancellor, senior administration official said biden had spoken to olaf schultz said for you i will do this. you know, i think sometimes when people vote for president they think of voting for a character that they want to have in their living room for the next four years, but this is a sort of reminder. there's a gravity for this office. donald trump can say whatever he wants, but, you know, at least one of these people was taken while he was president and he did nothing to bring him home. paul whelan. talk about that a little bit. the second question i'll ask you is does this indicate that for vladimir putin he may be rethinking whether donald trump is going to be president again if he decided to do this deal with president biden in office? >> joy, first of all, it's great to be on your program on this day. i know how many times you've had vladimir on your show. everybody just kind of see what an eloquent principled leader he is and speaker. it's great we're going to have his voice back in this fight. number two, to your point, allies matter to the united state

defeat of olaf scholz a difficult decision, when he, in fact, himself admitted that he surrendered under pressure from the white house. the call came personally from the president. and schultz transatlantic relations. according to sources familiar with the progress of negotiations with the german side, the americans applied pressure for several months. however, in this exchange with moscow, america did not speak from a position of strength, according to experts in the united states. washington, which constantly claims to be the world's policeman, is no longer in control of the situation. i wish president biden would stop saying the words "stop and don't do this " to america's enemies. because every time he says it, he is simply ignored. today, when he talks about putin, there is only one word in his vocabulary: stop, and he is ignored, just as biden’s calls not to take any actions were ignored before. and biden’s actions, when he, apparently, having watched the footage of the meeting at vnukov’s airport with the honorary karaol, also rushed to the ramp, looked more like political theater, sums up observers in the united states. the performance at an air base in maryland bec

then biden's relationship with german chancellor olaf scholtz has been in focus with the administration confirming that when president biden asked schultz to release one of russia's hit men as part of this deal, the main bargaining chip that putin wanted, that schultz replied for you, i will do this. president and biden in what appear to be a veiled overture to former president donald trump, who has tried to downplay some of these alliances earlier today, said, having friends around the world matters running water questions. was allies matter they do they matter. >> today as a powerful example of why it's vital that fringes world french, you can trust, work with and depend upon especially on matters of great consequences, sensitivity like this our alliances make our people safer following the news that the release of those four americans and one american, three americans and one american green card holder had been released. president biden, celebrate grading with those families on hand here at the white house and then spending the afternoon calling the leaders of those seven countries, thanking them for their cooperation, for them it's

olaf scholtz to release a man named vadim krasikov. this is a russian assassin that we have been talking think about all day, who had been detained in germany and we know that when schultz finally told president biden that he was going to get to a yes on this. he said, quote, for you, i will do this another key country, of course, is slovenia, who also had some key russian nationals in their custody. and we now know that president biden, on the day that he announced that he was going to be dropping out of the 2024 race. actually moments before that public announcement placed an important phone call well, to the prime minister of slovenia to push them and urge them on those two. russia nationals that are, that were released as a part of this deal, which means kaitlan remarkably on the day that the president announced that he was going to be dropping out, he knew that it was very likely that this huge prisoner swap was going to be probably cemented into his one term legacy. now, where we are right now, of course, is jba and behind us on the tarmac is where the plane is going to land carrying those three americans when they get off the plane, president biden, vice presiden
