1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:06,200
Speaker 1: And finally this is major It's and English School's Teddy

2
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 1: Bear has gone missing after a trip to the upper atmosphere. Now,

3
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 1: students at Wolhampton School were invited to the launch of

4
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:13,680
Speaker 1: a high altitude weather balloon and so what they did

5
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 1: is they strapped a couple of the school's tour is,

6
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:18,159
Speaker 1: Bill the Badger and Bradfield Bear to the balloon for

7
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 1: a ride. When the balloon reached the stratosphere, Bradford Bear

8
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:23,800
Speaker 1: fell off and he's now missing. In the school reckons,

9
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 1: he's probably landed somewhere near Reading. Thankfully, Bill the Badger

10
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 1: stayed attached to the balloon for the whole trip and

11
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:31,480
Speaker 1: he's safely back at the school.

12
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:36,080
Speaker 2: International correspondence with ends and eye Insurance peace of mind

13
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:37,199
Speaker 2: for New Zealand Business.

14
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:39,640
Speaker 1: Now, I haven't got foggiest as to why we told

15
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 1: you that story, but what I'm going to tell you

16
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 1: is that's cool. Like that's a cool thing to do

17
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 1: as a school, isn't it?

18
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 3: With us?

19
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:45,279
Speaker 2: Now?

20
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:49,520
Speaker 1: As Jonathan Cursley, US correspondent, Now, Jonathan, can we get.

21
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,839
Speaker 2: More schools to send stuff into space? Like this is

22
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,960
Speaker 2: where stuff should be? Station is fascinating. People are fascinated

23
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 2: by it. Let's let's get more stuff up there. Let's

24
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 2: get school kids interested. It's a wonderful world beyond our world.

25
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:06,400
Speaker 1: It's technology, it's space, it's all of that. It's science.

26
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 1: And then what you do as well is you get

27
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: them in the little footwear and then you get them

28
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:12,680
Speaker 1: out around reading trying to find the best. And then

29
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: you've got pe as well, Like this is.

30
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 2: What it's all about. Like anybody that should be not

31
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:22,960
Speaker 2: know what our worth, what our world has, well, you know,

32
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 2: go explore what we have and let's send more weather balloons,

33
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 2: let's send more space stuff up. Let's say school's interested, kids,

34
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 2: It's a multi million dollar idea. Be concerned, do.

35
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: You know what, Jonathan? I reckon we should stop otherwise

36
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:38,320
Speaker 1: they're going to try to get us to design everyone's

37
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 1: curriculum the way we're going now. Listen, this business with

38
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: Ukraine and Trump and the peace deal are starting to

39
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 1: sound positive. But the problem, I would imagine is going

40
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: to be Russia.

41
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 3: What do you think, Yeah, this.

42
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 2: Is the multimillion dollar question. It is what is Russia's response?

43
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 2: I mean, you're already saying. Through Bloomberg today, leaked reports

44
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 2: of Steve wikoff, who is Donald try, I'm send boid

45
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 2: to these peace deals. His idea on how to coerce

46
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 2: Russia into convincing Donald Trump this is the best way forward.

47
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 2: And President Trump responded in an Air Force one a

48
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 2: short time ago to these leaked audio recordings, essentially saying, look,

49
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 2: this is all standard practice. This is what we do

50
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 2: when we come to trying to deal in these global

51
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 2: communications and these global peace deals. But what you've got

52
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 2: now is an often that's been put to Ukraine and

53
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,359
Speaker 2: they have indicated yeah.

54
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 3: Look it might be positive, but they want some changes.

55
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 2: But ultimately it's going to come down to is Russia

56
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 2: going to accept those changes? Because what Russia is essentially

57
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,799
Speaker 2: saying is the same thing it's said for year. Once

58
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 2: the Ukrainian territory. It wants Ukraine to not say that

59
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 2: it's going to be part. It's put all of these

60
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 2: stigmas into these protocols, this twenty eight point piece plan

61
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 2: Prane is going to actually want it and it wants

62
00:02:57,919 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 2: to make change.

63
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 1: Ye hold on, Jonathan, We're going to give you up

64
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: on the phone. Because you know, for all of the

65
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 1: talk of science and technology, it would appear that science

66
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: and technology has failed us in terms of your WhatsApp

67
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 1: Jonathan Kurzley is back with us, Jonathan, as you were,

68
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: what were you saying?

69
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, Look, this boils down to what is Russia going

70
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 3: to accept. Is it going to accept what Ukraine's counterposition is,

71
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,080
Speaker 3: or is it going to say, essentially, these are our

72
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 3: lines in the sand and we're not moving because right now,

73
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 3: as it says, the twenty eight point plan that's been

74
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,519
Speaker 3: put forward is largely the Russian position that was put

75
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,399
Speaker 3: forward years ago, right at the beginning of this conflict.

76
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 3: It says that you know, they don't want Russia to

77
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 3: be part of NATO. They don't want sorry, they don't

78
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:38,839
Speaker 3: want your CRAINTI to be part of NATO. They don't

79
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 3: want you crying to consider it. They want you crying

80
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 3: to reduce its own army. They want your crying to

81
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 3: reduce its own military forces. And this is the key

82
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 3: question moving forward in the next couple of days is

83
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 3: how much is Russia willing to move? Because if it's

84
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 3: not willing to move iota, then this peace deal is

85
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 3: not a peace deal at all. It is off the table.

86
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 3: So this comes down to what is the Kremlin allowing

87
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 3: in terms of movability. I suppose if you like the

88
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 3: Ukrainian position to be, because Ukraine's going to come back

89
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 3: and they're going to say we want changes to X,

90
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 3: Y and Z, and they are going to want changes.

91
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 3: They've already indicated that it's been reported, their minor changes.

92
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 3: But if Russia doesn't agree to it, then the whole

93
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 3: thing's off the table.

94
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that all comes down to whether Russia actually

95
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 1: whether the Russia's got a hold on Trump, and whether

96
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 1: Trump can push them. Jonathan, appreciate your time and thanks
