charles stratford standing by for us in cuba to landscape. not too pleased with these talks going on, and saudi arabia, what has he been saying, and what have you been hearing such ride zalinski again, doubling down on that message that he has repeated time and time again since this new direction. this new emphasis on a push for a potential piece. the goodness will was initiated by the trump administration savanski saying that he wouldn't recognize any agreements any deal that was made when he's not there. and as we know, he's not in saudi arabia, we've got a, a big visit though tomorrow in the keys, we're expecting the us and boy to ukraine. keith kendall to arrive. so potentially a 3 day visit with zalinski kettle had a back visit. so i can have you been speaking to europe and leaders who are asking for security guarantees, if indeed, eventually european peacekeepers were to be deployed. that's a long way off the kennel. i'm saying. but say knowing trump is vital that there are no options taken off the table. he also say that imposing any k

okay, we have trial stratford joining us from chief in a moment. but 1st let's head to the munich security conference. that's where the put matic editor james base is. james over to you to tell us what's being discussed over that as well. we've had this meeting, an emergency meeting or foreign ministers of the u hastily convene, because they are so concerned about what is going on. the fact that europe, i'm even ukraine, might be left out of the process to try and get a piece in the ukraine. the us is having a meeting in saudi arabia with russia in the coming days. let's find out more about the european between joining me as mom as a soccer, not he is the foreign minister of is so new. one of those that was around the table today. why was it necessary to have this meeting? it is normal that doing these historical at times we are gathering, we are changing the information, making sense for the next official meeting, the about from the ministers next monday as what tomorrow. our leaders are meeting in parties. so many things are happening. so you yor

but 1st let's go live to child stratford. he's in the ukranian capital cave. so charles, all of those talks and plans for talks taking place while there's no laptop in devising the absolutely yes, no, that's helping the fight to get the oil according to the crate in military, they're saying that they've actually seen an intensification of attacks by russia. hold and double the amount of attacks in recent days and they, they've seen him in recent, we suppose these statements come out. i've said have been major changes to the kind of people the magic direction has dictated by the jump administration. so the timing of a statement like that should obviously don't necessarily be taken at face value, but it is an indication certainly, according to the credit, is a big concerns of as these diplomatic efforts styles is. that could be a further intensification of attacks by russia. a lot of the concentration of those attacks happening in around the town or for crops. this is a huge strategic earphones. this town is a transport how, but as a railway line that goes throu

most ukraine, you credit and capital care for child stratford is standing by charles, it must be with all of this. the productivity is if the crane is being pulled over rather than to. but nevertheless, ukraine's leader has made it very clear on his country's position on the go sions with russia. and that's why you train a game where you're out to another day, adjusting to a new reality, following those statements that are being made in munich. so lensky saying that no decisions about ukraine should be made without new grade. he will. so saying that no decisions about europe should be by without euro. but we've had that announcement from the us that to the europeans, will be consulted on any future piece. arrangement. will but, but will not be at the table. the us special you great. then boy keith kellogg saying that this was the results of previous agreements or efforts of the peace agreement, referring to the ministry agreements of 20142015, cadillac saying that they would complicate is why they being too many people at the table, so zalinski and his ukrainian teams here is this cas

so let's get the story now and keep jo. stratford is for us. and charles have of course, let them is wednesday, very much not part of the may negotiating picture and re at of the that's why it is most recent statements doubling down. nobody's been saying now since this something changing direction is happening, saying that he would not recognize any decisions made in these tools because the ukraine is not present. we're expecting a busy 3 of 3 or 4 days, at least a game cube. so uh, wednesday it's expected to that's tomorrow. to view it sees ukraine special more keith kettle is coming in to ukraine fitful last night she was saying that he'd be speaking to you or being leaders that were looking for us security guarantees. if indeed that was in the future, european peacekeepers put into cry and kennel upset that knowing trump is main philosophies that nothing can be taken potentially of the negotiating table. he was also pushed as to why you were p, and lead is not being policy to these tools even in saudi arabia. and again reiterate to view as h

all right, let's go live now to troll stratford, who joins us from chief and ukraine. charles, good to speak with you. ukraine, as we all know, not involved in these conversations that took place in the all. what's been the general reaction that you're hearing there? we spoke to a member as an excuse policy, a member of parliament, the chief of this country's foreign affairs committee. a gentleman called alexander murray mara's co earlier today, and we all spoke his reaction about what he saw which was going to be achieved in re all the and he really didn't. mentees was in any ways, he said absolutely nothing. he said, the reason for that is because the ukraine and rushes goals are completely in irreconcilable. he said that they would die immeasurably oppose in their positions, basically echoing what zalinski has been saying that any kind of deal, any kind of agreement behind ukraine's backs will not be recognized. went on to say, or accuse president preteen as using negotiating platforms. in his words, as a west point of war, he said that the west and ukraine's back a

and this will show stratford, which is 0 keith, the news is wrong, is preparing to receive the bodies of full captives held in gaza on thursday. as paul says, phase one of the sci fi do us, according to reports from, is really media. meanwhile, pressure continues to mount on prime minister benjamin netanyahu to secure the release of captive, still held in gaza and implement the 2nd phase if that sci fi do. we use the very nicest pictures from outside his residence in west jerusalem protesters that criticize a mess. nose handling of the one guns, the assembly's monk 500 days since the big gun. meanwhile, and is waiting negotiating team is set to travel to cairo to discuss the cx. 5, do their on doubts about whether the cx 5 will hold the us invoice for them. at least the width gulf is express don't to mention that they will continue to a 2nd stage. i think the ceasefire is holding. i think we are in discussions about how to finish the next task that release and they'll be in his really delegation. going to either doha or cairo. and so uh, so i think that the cease fire is holding. ther

and this will tell stratford, i'll just era keith. the media reports i use wireless expecting to receive the bodies on the 1st day of full captives who died while being held in gauze on the release as part of phase one of the sweet spot. i deal with him us, no, i day is in jordan's kevin lamond because these ready government and pellets tending darcy of band al jazeera from reporting from inside his row as well as the occupied west bank of israel is expecting to receive the bodies of 4 is rarely captives killed after october. the 7th on thursday in exchange for releasing half of the women and children is ready, forces took from gaza and disappeared since the beginning of the war. we do not know how many palestinians would be released because israel has not disclosed how many palestinians it has taken from gaza. this is an implementation of phase one of the agreements. so there isn't anything out of the ordinary, but it is an indication that mediator efforts are bearing fruit. the talks are continuing. there is no movement though. on p

and this will show stratford which is 0 keith the there are less than 2 weeks left until the end of the 1st phase of the goal is to cease 5 deal between israel and come us palestinians have had some respite from israel's relating this bombardment. but off the 15 months of war destroyed, 70 percent of garza's buildings based families have no way to live is rel, is blocking. the entry of bulldozers and heavy equipment needed to clear the rubble to recover the thousands of bodies buried beneath the ruins of homes called voice of trucks came mobile homes and tents are also being held on the egyptian side of the roof of border crossing. it. remember how clean it takes us to one neighborhood and garza city where people are forced into tense because of the destruction that you want to tell you. the crisis in gaza has been exacerbated by the significant delays in the delivery of tents and several vans intended to provide to talk to the hundreds of thousands of displays. palestinians, despite the cease fire agreement stipulates in the in feet of karl rove as 6000 cargo vans and 200000 tens. for

and heading towards the strategic hub off talk roles as go to our correspondent child stratford. he is joining us live from that ukrainian capital. so charles, to me, things taking place. mesa on monday, we've got the french president, hosting a son this in paris and also preliminary talks between us and russian officials beginning and saudi arabia. the that's right, an old time that these things are happening. we, as you mentioned, we talked to you currently in prison and told them, is that in sky in the u. a. i think that said in, obviously the you able to saudi arabia is you mentioned as an excuse no, to invite you to these thoughts between the us officials and the russian delegation . the composition of which we have yet to get detail. ready is on so these key, according to his telegram channel, back to discuss the ensuring of both people being released by russians captives view it. he's been very instrumental in doing that in the past. there's also the head phones that are in ski, that they could be some sort of humanitarian package offered by the you a full so. but i think

else i can say about these negotiations. trump is trying to pacify the aggressor looms which al stratford is in cave. with more, a very simple conciliatory, more accepting language from the ukranian president below them is events give the end of the munich security, saw me. and he said that the ukraine had begun working with the trump team and it already was feeling that success is possible. he went on to say that to you and especially with invoice for ukraine, general piece kellogg is expected to visit ukraine in the coming days to further discuss any potential plan the well, the situation on the ground on the battlefields continues to be intense. that's according to the ukranian all me at least they uh, this morning sunday morning saying that in the last 24 hours or so, i would wait until they described as an uptake and increasing the tax of 2 and a half times in relation to the number of attacks happening in recent weeks. of course, there's no way of independently verifying this. and of course, one should always questions about the timing of a statement like this, when such, certainly

but 1st, let's go to child stratford, he's joining his life on the ukrainian capital k of charles. firstly, how do you quine, and said about one of these decisions being made away from them. i think this is really important to recognize that over the last least the last year is what has become more apparent is describing sense of fatigue amongst everyday ukrainians. so although they are shots by the sudden change of direction, there's something new emphasis expect headed by the trump administration. that has to be in this creeping realization. but in reality, the prospect have been really advocating by the territories the occupied territories. and bear in mind that russian controls around 20 percent of ukraine. and now there's been this growing realization that they were thinking never going to get that land backed. so with the announcement last week by peter hicks, s the, the us defense secretary that to return to the 2014 voters was unrealistic. that now beginning to accept this new potential reality on the ground, that role. so it's important to recognize is it, that should be conceptua

so much charles stratford reporting from keats land mines in unexploded munitions have killed her wounds at at least 560 people in syria since the fall of the us address sheets. the mining teams believe that's an underestimate. it's because many cases aren't reported. at least a quarter of a 1000000 syrians have already returned home according to the un, which means an increased risk of exposure. but sama been job aid reports from damascus. control destination, northern syria. and just as the remove one is a call to secure another city as board average terrain is littered with explosive devices like this. last, in addition to empty tank lines, high velocity in century rounds, an empty personnel mines which was almost all territory between the former james forces and opposition fighters is providing the constant danger to civilians returning after the fall of the south regime. this um has to be meticulous about the safe dispose of the board lenses. you know, all too well the dangers they post. what kind of a hold on to how that i'm in the, the i am proud of my job and i feel happy when i
