welcome back everyone, you're watching press tv, world news. now february 24th marks the second anniversary of the start of the ongoing war between russia and ukraine. western leaders including the eu commission chief ersel of underland are visiting kib to extend their support for ukrainian authorities. the two years of armed conflict has caused human and material losses for both sides, but russian forces have been able to capture several eastern ukrainian regions. kyev and moscow fail though to reach agreements in the past negotiations on several issues, including a prisoner swap and allowing ukraine's grain shipments. meanwile, the russian ambassador to the un says a western backing for ukraine has... any
2:43 pm
conflict ends sooner or later, there is no doubt that the ukrainian conflict will end as well. there is no doubt that the longer it lasts due to the sustained support by the west, the less advantageous peace conditions will be for ukraine. the russian envoy urged the west to engage in. meaningful dialogue where the interests of all countries will be guaranteed. this comes as the us has already provided chief with tens of billions of dollars worth of weapons and financial aid. the us president joe biden is seeking a congressional approval of another $60 billion aid package. moscow's waren time and again western military and financial support for ukraine is an impediment to any possible settlement of the conflict. and now joining us for more on the story is greg simons, independent researcher and um author joining
2:44 pm
us from ubsala. hello uh, mr. simon, pleasure to have you on the program uh, sir, your thoughts about two years plus of conflict between these two neighbors and a western uh hand that's in it and how much that according to the russians has been an impediment to reaching some kind of concessance on putting a stop to it. well, i mean, if we look at the whole thing and why it started, it is seriously misrepresented by the u.s. led west, they say this is about russia wanting to recreate the soviet union or something like this, that is an unprovoked war, that's a full-scale war, all that there's propaganda and slogans, but if you look at it, i mean, they already revealed before the war started why the us. wanted to provoke russia into going into war and this was they wanted to use ukraine as another afghanistan uh against
2:45 pm
russia and other words to use it to weaken and contain russia uh and this is failed and the west uh the us and its vessel states like the eu and so forth uh have been supplying weapons have been supplying money they've been supplying intelligence uh have even been supplying uh men on on the ground, although this is of course uh covert, so there there is this still desire, i mean... you can see it on these us politicians, this is the best money we've spent uh killing russians and no us sold just die, this is purely uh us geopolitics at its very worst uh where ukraine is the meat and the grinder and of course you cannot trust the us, i mean they
2:46 pm
do not keep the word, this has been proven again and again, so russia as an equandry uh with with this war, i mean, obviously ukraine is not the one to negotiate with, the us is, but they're unreliable, and their intent is very much aimed against russia and russian interests, so it's an impass uh at the moment, although militarily speaking, russia has the upper hand now right, and mr. simons, pardon, i mean it seems like russia. is not going to back down from its demand that it refuses to have nato parked its doorstep, so with that being the case, mean how how far do you see this thing protracting? mean, how do you see a conclusion to this war? the conclusion needs to be uh political in the end, uh, this war is hurting europe, which is
2:47 pm
being deindustrialized because of what the us is doing there. "the us is going into a presidential election in november and i mean with the us having two unpopular wars, i mean ukraine being the lesser of the unpopular war, the more unpopular one being gaza, the democrats are likely to lose if they continue these wars, so i mean until november, i mean it's going to be too late if they withdraw from the wars in november, and to withdraw from the war is simply to leave ukraine." its own devices, so in other words uh, if we if we look at this as an example uh from history, i mean that they did the same thing to iraq after it failed uh to destroy iran and in the war there, so i mean you have a similar scenario, what happens uh to ukraine uh when the political will evaporates because
2:48 pm
the political costs of continuing the war are too much and for europe. the economic costs and you're having a lot of different uh protests and social unrest because of the incompetence of these uh vessels uh which are not i greg we we don't have lot of time i want to get this we have less than a minute left if you can answer this third question you mentioned elections i'm glad because that's part of my uh my final question for you uh post us elections a lot of people say it really looks like the republicans are going to come back into the oval office, how does that impact this war? well, i mean, this is going to depend on who enters. i mean, uh, trump says he wants to come to some agreement uh, with russia, i mean, he said that last time too, then you had russia gate, uh, but the problem is that it becomes much less
2:49 pm
predictable, because there is not an appetite for these endless wars, and if trump does come... back, he'd be more experienced and more able and capable of asserting what he wants than he was the first time. okay, stay safe, thanks for having us or spending some time with us here in our bulletin uh, from upsala, greg simons, independent researcher and author, there joining us. meanwile, support for palestinians continues throughout various sectors in pakistan, students from religious educational institutions have been holding demonstrations denouncing israel atrocities in gaza. a pakistani healthcare workers have also announced that they're willing and ready to provide voluntary services to the wounded people of gaza. our correspondent nasir khasmi reports. students from seminaries and religious schools gathered in the pakistani capital of islamabad to protest against what they termed
