8:02 pm
russia and ukraine. there in the rush, as chief negotiator spoke to journalists after the tax, revealing that russia is ready to return to ukraine. the bodies of 6000 officers and to exchange all injured po w's. we are unilaterally transferring 6000 frozen bodies of deceased ukrainian officers to the ukrainian side. they have been stored with us and we have conducted dna test on everything we could identify to determine who they are. a special train has been organized for this purpose. next week, we will hand over these bodies to ukraine, so they can be buried with dignity. all seriously wounded and critically ill individuals will be exchanged on a all for all basis. secondly, under the same all for all formulas, young soldiers will also be exchanged. the exchange ceiling will be no less than
8:03 pm
$1000.00 people from each side. no fewer than $1000.00, it is possible that there will be more and those numbers are currently being finalized. the ukrainian side constantly speaks about the necessity of a cease fire. we propose a specific ceasefire for $2.00 to $3.00 days in certain areas of the front. this will now be coordinated by our military specialist with the ukraine. the purpose of this short ceasefire with drones turned off is to allow commanders to retrieve the bodies of their soldiers. so the head of the russian delegation by the merriment, dean sky, he has revealed that russia has agreed to unilaterally return the 6000 bodies of ukrainian offices back to key if basically those offices whose bodies right now remain frozen in russian moves. russia is taking a gradual approach to the idea of a ceasefire. basically, the russian proposal is uh, the small scale sees, far as for 2 or 3 days on several sections of the front with a complete hold of
8:04 pm
a new military activities including f, b, v. drones and of course, any offensive according to mundane ski the reason and the logic behind such an idea is that the fighting has intensified across several parts of the front. and it is very, very hard in the don't buy. so any of the full ins, as well as just as just biology and the bodies they will, they begin to decay very quickly, is to allow, combined, as on both side to send the man the vast to collect the bodies and to, to just to, to get them to get them on the hook to the home front and to freeze them. uh so that they are ready for potential future exchange. also according to what you want me to ask you, one of the, one of the other points that he's been talking about, the property it took most of, uh, just over an hour of the time that the delegations have spent together in the same room. one of the key subjects that was the issue of the so called kidnapped
8:05 pm
children just a bit of background for you. ukraine has been accusing rochelle, the kidnapping, ukrainian children accusing rush of taking these children and who's fully relocating them to rush up from ukraine's and they have been saying that's a, that's a kidnapping. russian has been saying, no, this is not the case. and we didn't ski as clarified, clarified the, the clarify the situation on bad, basically, russian soldiers, they would say there's these children who have been abandoned by the parents for one reason or another. and saving them, bringing them uh, taking them to a safe place and russia is ready to return them. and in fact, russia has been, russia has been making efforts to track down the parents or the relatives of those children. and so that they aren't just given to, you know, to, to just didn't to know where, but a given back to the families. and he is,
8:06 pm
in fact when he didn't ski he has, he did show us whole list of these children. this list of names that the ukrainian side provided to them during these talks and he is what he revealed about that list . it's like humans. we show that 1st you create it said that one and a half 1000000 ukranian children were abducted by russia. then they said 200000 ukranian children. now they say 20000 children have been abducted. we have been trying to documented all along these children were evacuated. but if we find their parents or relatives, they are brought back and their families are reunited. there are 339 names on the list, like the ukranian authorities are staging a show about children designed to impress compassionate europeans if you want to make someone cry and show them in a duct and child left or better yet a child with a kid that's what they do. so it even fact is, these are children who have not been abducted by these are children who are saved by our soldiers at the cost of their own lives. they was pulled out of the combat.
8:07 pm
so we are searching for their parents and if they do show up, then we return the children to kind of see right. now also let me do sky reveal that that will be another prisoners of war will with it, which will be even bigger in scale compared to, to the previous one which will into and make it the biggest, the ever the biggest thing that the biggest in the special military operation in ukraine. he has not revealed the exact cd yet, saying that that detail is being figured out right now, but the it will be basically numbers will be equal. so how many, how many the russian side will give back to ukraine? it will, russia will receive back the same number of its own people of its own citizens, the head of the ukrainian delegation, the meat of the ukrainian defense minister. well, what he did, do you essentially use the platform? and by the way, he did not answer any questions as he spoke to, to us,
8:08 pm
but we'll get to that later. basically he use that opportunity to just briefly just skim through the ukranian position and skim through what we've all ready known on the to cool to route to basically release a cool for more sanctions on russia. we're calling for a real work to and these for the 1st necessary steps are clear to everyone a ceasefire. humanitarian actions and preparation for leaders meeting. is it for us a serious about the ending the war? it will move forward on this if not international sanctions must follow. now speaking about the matter of the appearance here in front of the john list, while the crating of delegation has tried to under, they did hold a full out press conference inside the palace, us russian jell, unless we haven't been invited and pretty much we were the only group of
8:09 pm
journalists, the only breed of journalist, so to speak, not to be invited inside the ukrainians, the international media. they was that, but we did have a chance to try and we'll ask a questions. just yell out questions in the hopes that that will be out of the or the grading and diplomats will respond to that. and of course, the, the, the big elephant in the room here where the explosions, the blowing up of russian bridges just this early of this weekend. one of those bridges, it collapse at the moment of the attack at the moment till the explosion had collapsed on the civilian train. and that the, i'm the basically that, that turned it into a disaster turned into a tragedy with dozens of civilians injured with the civilians. killed with the children really, really small children total as i sent to hospitals. and my question really that was as simple as if the ukrainian diplomats,
8:10 pm
and if the ukranian delegation is ready so much so as to extend the condolences over this fax or the traffic is russian bridges way through the track. are you ready to the events? are you ready for the end of it? so there you have it. it's just uh, it's just us, uh, yelling our questions uh, in uh well in a few top i hope i have to say that those questions will be onset. but both so far, this 2nd round of tubes has been over. it is over and there will be a 3rd one. so the slides, they remain committed to this piece process. and as a final remarks, the department density is once again confirmed when we asked him, uh what language did they speak inside? because like, uh, well met of, uh,
8:11 pm
when he was talking to us outside the policy was speaking english. uh so we ask uh if he followed suit back, the behind closed doors, the dean sky revealed the onset really with a question of result and he said, well, what do you think? and uh, well, when we said that they probably spoke in russian. he just noted inside of course. so um again, uh that's a rep for, for this day and the rep. so this round of tools as the sides have gone back and uh, the premiums they have uh, taken. uh, basically they've asked us for time to look through the russian memorandum and come up with the come up with a response come up with the reaction and with their own basically vision of how to move forward. so and the russians, of course, they will, they will do the same, preparing for round 3, for russia has officially released it's memorandum and made it public. and of course, we have to go through a few details,
8:12 pm
very important ones. and the 1st and foremost is of course, international recognitions or for new russian terry trees. encouraging dynamic school golf chips, songs about oci and cry, man, and uh, withdrawal of all you creating and troops from all of these cherry trees, as well as a neutral status for ukraine. ukraine cannot join any military collections, a cap on ukrainian military capabilities, full rights will ukraine's russian speaking population as well as making russian as an official language on in ukraine and lifting restrictions on ukrainian. also, adults judge and restoration of diplomatic on economic ties between moscow and kia and middle school lead rushes delegation, and stays at actually the most good house proposed to retire over 6000 ukrainian ministries, bodies, but assistance with us. we have more than $6000.00 bodies out of consideration for humanity. we offered to return these bodies to the training side so that their
8:13 pm
families and relatives could give them a human christian burial. we identified who we could. there's a large proportion of those identified or if they have such bodies, we just don't know if there is. they can also load it into our refrigerated trucks and return it was my russian shape negotiate them. a den ski has also on the line, the fact that this, i'm gonna quote that this memorandum is not an ultimatum, but a good comprehensive proposal that will allow either a genuine c spy or, or a long term piece to be achieved. and russia has also on the lines that it's memorandum in its memorandum that it once you crane to hold the presidential election. and we've heard about this on a number of times. and most of the house being repeatedly underlined is that in one's k of to hold elections. and as most guy proposed a be great inside to reclaim the bodies of the 6000 military personnel. zalinski, on his behalf, has actually criticized the site to much. how did they respond regarding the
8:14 pm
ceasefire? they are ready for a 2 to 3 day pause to retrieve the bodies from the battlefield. i think they are duty is because a ceasefire is needed to prevent casualties. this proposal is just a game of rhetoric, mr. but in ski, as i said from the very beginning, is not of the necessary level, they don't even understand the technicalities on the battlefield. the military often exchanges the dead bodies of soldiers. unfortunately, like you mitchell, and according to the reports apply to the talks between the russian and ukrainian delegation commit dense. he had a bilateral meeting when he cranes, it will stand only out of hoops. he was the chief negotiator from the cape side, and he's also ukraine's defense minister on the tulips actually lost his foot 2 and a half hours on best reports. and he helps to pace the way for further effect of negotiations between the 2 sides and ahead of the tulips. of course, we have to mention of the ukranian memorandum and ahead of the tools the financial
8:15 pm
times has of has pasted and a complete tax of t of so called piece memorandum. and it included key points, the following key points for an unconditional seas for insurance, against another rule, as well as guarantees of security on silver and table stats and everything that we've been witnessing. of course, the tools seem to have been productive, but of course, any time will tell. earlier i spoke with christopher holly international, the secretary of the american communist party. he says he of is not interested in establishing long lasting peace and is dismissing the real situation on the ground . we are from the memorandums that there's really no input this, especially on the ukrainian side to reach a comprehensive peace treaty at this point. and to really end the hospital, it is the ukrainian still demand, for example, therefore the military capabilities they had do not declare neutrality. they still believe. and they have emphasized in the memorandum, but they should seek
8:16 pm
a european union membership and also that they can still move for nato. which of course is a non starter. it's a red line for the russian federation, as well as a taking and seizing the russian southern funds that are still locked because of the sanctions and using those for reconstruction efforts. of course, the russian side is acknowledging the situation on the, the ground, the reality since 2014, the 4 regions have to be recognized the new regions, including crimea as a 5th. and then of course, looking overall at the situation, you know, protecting the russian community. russian language, the orthodox church, of course the banding, nazi is, and then you're not season the historical aspects of best and really making ukraine and neutral states. and of course, the, rebuilding a lot of the economic and political ties, they couldn't be further apart at this point. and i think that the reality not only the negotiating table, but on the ground in the battlefield across the 2 countries is indicative of this. russia has suggested
8:17 pm
a 2 to 3 days cease fire to allow the remains of these 6000 the ukrainian soldiers to be returned in response zalinski labeled with the russian delegation as idiots and accused the chief negotiator of misunderstanding the nuances of warfare and insisting that retrieval is happen all the time. what do you make of that response? i mean, i think it's appalling. i mean, any military throughout history has been very much concerned about their dead. for example, as that for remember the us military, one of the biggest things was retrieving the bodies and taking people back home, whether they are dead or alive. so. so in this case, the fact that you know, mrs. lensky is not even concerned about the $6000.00 plus, i think it's much larger number. or if we were to really look for all of the bodies, is not even concerned about bringing those people home. only shows an emphasizes what many people on the ground the new crane are saying that this war is basically a me grinder, just tearing apart all of the ukranian youths sending them to the battlefield without even the proper burial and the end,
8:18 pm
the proper concern to bring them back home and so i think that ultimately you can see the aims of the ukrainian government given the situation. and i think it's very sad. i think i think that this will not help the recruitment efforts as they continue to try to put people into vans in the middle of the day or night. the meanwhile, ukraine has renewed it strikes on russia, civilian infrastructure, selling energy facility. it facilities in the hair sun and is that for rose or regions. the joint attacks caused electricity outages across the 2 regions. over $100000.00 people were left without power, according to local authorities. they have confirmed that critical facilities are still functioning things to backup power sources, while the head of kids delegation and assembles, refusing to comment on the deadly train incident and rush or this weekend, you
8:19 pm
a secretary of state mark or rubio, has called his russian counterpart and expressed his condolences, he was a short recap of the tragic events. the room was when we were heading for moscow. we heard a bang, a very strong one, and then a 2nd one. and somehow the carriage tilted onto the bridge. then people starting screenings, i announced evacuation, asked the passengers to wait. we broke the windows and started taking the passengers out. 3 of them were in serious condition, but all were alive the the
8:20 pm
8:21 pm
they've already opened up the line. it's probably 24 hours really and reaffirm since this terrible a crush took place, the whole gray cheer collapsing down on to an energy carrying hundreds of civilians towards moscow. no savvy 7 died. we know the 7 seriously injured at about $64.00. the injured in total. an absolutely horrific event here in branson. oh yeah. do you for listings voice and we left the previous store. everything was as usual, the lights were turned off and we switched to night mode. and then i heard an explosion and realized that the carriages had collided. people started kindly, king shouting, asking what to do and what was happening. it was clear that this was not a collision. there was a flash. the 1st thing i did was get people out or i had injured people in my carriage was one woman had a broken spine, and another woman flew into my office and hit her head. it's very difficult to
8:22 pm
remember because it was so scary. but as you can see, the tar had dropped spot of the bridge has now been broken up and taken away, and cranes are rolling back on the line. it's an incredible test. good. hold on hard work. the rescue workers construction workers and the people of the whole district here really came together. the board, everybody who was trying to help out older, the incidents on the rail infrastructure incurs another freight train brought down the hours after this tragedy occurred. and also the s b, you and your train admitting that they attacked relative research in municipal and the bus. i'm also in the south of re, it's close to the border. there was a need or sabotage attempt. so it seems that the rush is real ways that this week and at least under a significant pressure. and we await the outcome of the russian investigative
8:23 pm
committee's work to find out just exactly what happened here and brianna. and of course, to, to cause this terrible human tragedy that costs so many innocent civilian, large tables for ortiz embry on russia. and while the russia ukraine talks are endorsed by turkey and the us other powers, apparently want to keep the war going. britain's by ministers among them and has announced a massive boost to the u. k. 's military budget, allegedly in the name of peace, fast we all moving to will fighting readiness as the central purpose of our armed forces. when we all being directly trucking by states with adults and electric forces, the most effective way to deter them is to be ready on frankly, to show that we're ready to deliver pace for scribes. as you created,
8:24 pm
russia shuffled back to the negotiating table for talks back by the trump administration. you think that piece was just about the worst possible outcome based on how some western allies, after talking. certainly they brothers settled things with a bar fight behind a waffle house. i see far we'd really rude things for countries hoping to reboot. they're taking and mismatched economies into sexy new war time was way easier to mark the average citizen for cash when you guys gary bedtime story about pretend setting accounts on there but going yes. and for the u. k, with it's new strategic defense review of today, which 1st defense secretary john haley has labeled a quote message to mosque out because yeah, this is definitely not about tossing tax their cash at the military industrial complex. no, it's about keeping coaching from pitching a tent in birmingham and they're rushing this whole military bill up announcement out before piece has any chance of running the party?
8:25 pm
big investments of 6000000 pounds over the next 5 years in factories like this, which allow us not just to reduce the munitions that equip our forces for the future, but to create the jobs in every part of the u. k. this is a message to most go as well. this is written, standing behind, making our own forces stronger, but making our industrial base stronger. and this is part of our readiness to fight if required. but the strings in which to the, to those fights in the future. right. so this is all about rebuilding the industrial base, the you case. the industrialization has been so thorough that it's car industry, just post it's worst production numbers. it's 1952 and wells energy intensive sectors are curling up in a fetal position after 35 years of decline. thanks to sign my energy prices. so this is basically just industrial welfare to save their own economy. but with the
8:26 pm
scary of brandings, everything's going just great. obviously you can totally trust these guys because they sound super sane and level headed. this guy especially, you come to a nuclear arm country without nuclear capability. and you called to about that you're calling to, to a battlefield, nuclear weapons with strategic nuclear weapons. it simply doesn't data. so i think that part of that declaration should have been for britain to undertake to develop battlefield nuclear weapons. though i know how expensive that is, which could have been a deterrent against russia and all to help ukraine develop its own nuclear weapons capability having surrendered it with suppose a guarantee from the west. and now the bridge line makes new for you, craig, the same ukraine, that according to the germans ministry and the german tax, they were doing it. and then somehow the whole room done by trying to fix them. the same folks who keep knows dining their precious few f sixteens. yeah,
8:27 pm
sure. let's talk new into that mix sounds like it sounds. austic plan says one very chill british colonel makes you wonder what kind of mystery mushrooms were on the phone with the table. at that event, i would assume i was lou credit and right now and see seriously what stop me, man. go play superman over the crowd. would be standing next to your body, captain. bad idea. oops, sorry, colonel bad idea. who's advocating for nuclear proliferation starting with ukraine? of course, this isn't the 1st time the brits had thrown us down or in the peace process back in 2020 to force johnson when he was prime minister reportedly told you probably not to take a piece deal in the early days of the war. the you is all so pivoting to
8:28 pm
a war economy funded by tax stairs to the tune of $800000000000.00 euros. meanwhile, french bakeries can't afford to big bag guess, with the chronically high price of energy. maybe they just switched to making subsidized bullets instead. surprisingly someone in germany is actually started hitting the brakes on all this belligerent rhetoric from my point of view. it was clear from the very beginning that this war will most likely end at the negotiating table. because one thing is already true. that a complete defeat in the sense of a capitulation of the nuclear armed russia could not be expected. in this respect, we have now made ourselves a little more honest. at the same time, ukraine is successfully defending itself against russia. thus, there is every chance for ukraine to emerge strongly from a strong negotiating position. it is important for us that ukraine makes this decision and that it is not taken over its heads by others. so diagnosed every a politic and diplomacy, coming from the german foreign minister is really
8:29 pm
a stark contrast to german chancellor. friedrich mertz is recent talk of why not let ukraine get literally anything and russia with western weapons 0 range limits. he had to walk that one back though, probably after remembering that he said a coalition with the social democrats who were famously not into scenarios that could spontaneously large world war 3. at least mertz hasn't yet announced plans to personally ride a german tarus missile. dr. strange style into moscow. guess that means is bruce pow, we'll have to find someone else to give him a ride over the kremlin so weekend lu, over it and for sale is on fantasy for more on this story is recovering here on archie international. be sure to visit our website, archie dot com, the
