u. k. would like things to get back to. but i think there are some that are questioning whether it really is any future of the month in the trans atlantic airlines. and i suspect they'll be questions to and discussions behind closed doors with all of these leaders may not here at downing street, but not far away in a large mansion, cold like us, the house that's in the 3 as a from now discussions about whether you are can support you crates on it. so whether it has the capability to do it. and i think it's a very big question when it comes to movies, european countries, what does they have the unity that is required to do so already you have victim old bob of the prime minister of hungry. and there was another european stomach coming up in just a few days time of questioning some of the plans conclusions from that summit that have already been negotiated among diplomats so or do you show a sign of disunity, but that of course, from hungry. a country that very often doesn't see the same of the look at things the same. why is

would be willing? and i think over you got from the u. k. what are the european nations would be padded to stand up with germany? for example, that would be important. and i think it's a little unclear at the moment because of course of the german german government is in flux. i'll send you election with a new coalition. currently being formed, i think look a little closer on thursday because there was an e. u summit coming up, taking place in brussels. the, the talking about bull money from europe for defense spending, ocean level design, president of the european commission said that was now a priority. but all ready, all the going to get any conclusions from that think something's on the state in brussels because victor over the prime minister hungry says he's not prepared to have any written conclusions from the 27th you members from that somebody's. and i think so back it is likely to take a similar position up to hungry. so a lack of unity in your to. so a plan put on lots of doubts surrounding that plan in tennessee is stomach also spo

u. k has given 9800000000 to teams, the largest known as you don't know of military aid after the united states. would it help us unpack all of this and took us through developments we joined. now, if i've been good when, who is upon the present, the strategic intelligence and investment to advise refer me joins us from london. thanks very much for joining us here. been festival. well, what are you going to be looking for when we hear from the latest ones that meeting amazing is concluded? i think we have to try and see if there is some kind of unity coming out of this because the, your family doesn't know exactly or on the same page here. and not all of them are perhaps committed as much as i saw on the, on my chrome. so are they able to produce a list of potential things that could be part of a piece agreement going forward that they could really present to the us to get engaged in the discussions? yeah, we've already heard from chemist on that before that meeting began, saying that that you can friends as well as you kind of working on the cx 5 deal that they will present at some stage, no doubt th

now what, what do you think london would ever see that money again and seeing that the u. k. economy is not exactly a booming right now. are you surprised that all this money keeps being given away? yes, i'm very surprised because of what we know what you said. you k, it's well, it's a disaster. same for europe. i mean, if you look at germany, for instance, it's, it's horrible that i mean, there's the industrialization. so how are they going to get the money back and then you, i mean it's, it's, you know, it, they look using its own, the best seals in ukraine, and the whole part is investors in ukraine. i mean, we can see this and so they're not able to give the money back. and this money is when they're said it's russian assistance. been frozen money. so this money is gone . all right, that serial you case 100 here, deal with ukraine, features london benefiting from key as natural resources. so how much of a co incidence is that that valencia gets into an argument with trump in washington, and then the head straight interest almost always in london to me, but that, that is n

u. k, which often sees itself is a bridge between the us and the you would like to pick up the deal as it was. try and get it back on track. try and get some in ski and trump talking again, pick up maybe that middle deal in return for security, but i think they're also going to be looking at the plan be can you go is alone without the us kind of it's support ukraine if the us is no longer that and i think there are other things related to that that will be discussed in this meeting. i'm . busy for example, there was concern about the us troops off to russian invited ukraine. 810000 us troops in poland. could president trump suddenly decide to pull those out? i've told of nato level discussions about which countries perhaps, could provide replacements for those traits. with that to happen. but also remember there were the pros and assets all russia, held by the european union, $300000000000.00 was the, was taking the interest of those. some suggestions, perhaps the you could take one of those assets or perhaps take them when russia hits ukrainian a building or ukrainian power site. for exa

it's, it would have been inconceivable even in 3 months like and now the u. k. is planning to up its defense spinning the 2 and a half percent of gdp as i understand it, but to pay for that to begin slashing its own $8.00 out onto the rest of the world . i want to ask you, not just about, isn't that terrible? i really wanna ask you, are we seeing history? we started again. we're america created with britain with others, a lot of the, the institutions after a world war, after tens of millions of people were killed. are we going to see things like massive world wars? again, in, in response to some of the shots, are we going to see as economies realize, wow, this isn't working out in other great depression? are we going to bring back those parts of the earlier part of the 20th century? what, so it's a, it's a really good sense, somewhat important question. i mean, the last time that we had a global power back, human trump is essentially declaring a power vacuum. he's saying no america now sees the, well, there's a jungle with a big pride of the there are other big

u. k. maybe within nato, a reasonably big military pilot, and nothing like the us or turkey, but it's still some would question whether it has the capability to lead this sort of operation. we understand the from is also offering to help the other countries that are much less willing. i may not be part of the condition of the winning. what will be the attitude of germany? we have a shots, the chancellor here at the meeting today representing jeremy of course he is not going to be the johnson for much longer as the coalition negotiations continue here . so i'm gonna plan from the u. k. a plan, the other countries now and as we go through all of the different countries of the 10 digit listen to them. all the leaders speaking to that price. because each of these leaders is accompanied by a small group of journalists and each will give a little brief thanks to them. we perhaps can get some idea of how many countries are willing to join such a condition. and i think we'll get an even bigger picture when on says say the 27 countries of your opinion meet for us. another summit is going to take place. and tha

this road if i didn't think that it was something that would yield a positive outcome in terms of ensuring that we move together. you train your up a u k. and us together towards the last in face. and so that's the way i've approached this in the last few days. have to go or from the i i news. i think she promised that she could do it from the i to um, obviously the of the policy that would need to sign up to any future peace deal is russia. uh, president trump has said he wants to talk to russia. you'll coming up with a piece deal without rushed in both of what makes you think the russia can be persuaded to sign up to this deal that's been agreed by its enemies. well, in detail, we'll have to evolve russia, of course, it will. but we can't approach this on the basis that russia dictates the tubs of any security guarantee before we've even dealt with the a lot of it was, we weren't make any progress, a tool, but it is a, you know, for a deal to be dog. but if a deal is done, it has to be a deal. it is then defended. because what we've seen in the past is a, a cessation of hostilities without any backup. and that was originally breached

u. k. did it to such a degree as the united states. and that's what's, that's what, that's american exceptionalism. that brings me to the monroe doctrine. would you talk about in your forthcoming book america, america? this was a doctrine created under us president, james monroe in 1823 as a response to latin american independence movements. uh, talked about this doctrine. how does it continue to influence us policy in the americas 2 centuries later? yeah, the actual monro docs and it was just a couple of paragraphs. and in james monroe and state of the union address and you know, when it would, they weren't even continuous paragraphs. they basically said the united states was going to recognize the independence of, of latin america, a south american nation, spanish american nations. and that it wouldn't, it wouldn't allow that re conquests by european powers. the latin americans liked that part they, they, they read it, they thought they were hearing a kind of anti colonial sentiment. they would not be a recall on his ation of, of the americas by europe. but over the years, the monroe doctrine took on a different come, almost kind of mystica

u. k. such as boots on the ground so far a frost has agreed to this. do you think we will get to that commitment from all the european countries? and i certainly hope that, uh, we would because if europe did not wake up this time, this time, it will never wake up. we are talking about concrete actions and creative solutions, even if they sometimes go against the norms of regulating, you know, financial transactions. and that means using russian throws in money. what your report, it just referred to recently, and $300000000.00 laying frozen. well, wretched up your production of weaponry and have russian bind need be for your support of the praise mike johnson as much as he is now. uh, you know, dancing to, uh, to uh, donald trump student said that this is pure poetry. hey, use the russian money against that. so i hope that there will be concrete actions. i hope that france and germany will quit their resistance to the idea and use this money. there's legal case for that, but written by a professor 100 page documents from harvard university. so use it. it's time for bold action in response to this unprecedented pressure on both sides of the atlantic pace and know that
