want to have a future -- >> we're out of time, olli. thank you to all of our guests. have a great evening. ♪ along.d to have you you are watching the al more extensive coverage. >> we condemn the act of aggression. >> john kerry accusing russia of looking for an excuse to invade more of ukraine. >> it is an unconstitutional coupe and a military seizure of power. >> russia's president condemns events in kiev, and says he has the right to use all means to

protect citizens in the east. >> confrontation, russian forced file warning shots as unarmed ukrainian soldiers approach a sea air base. with more from europe, including a minister puts the case for independent in london, caught dancing to the same tune. and italy prompted more money for pompei's upkeep, after a series of building collapsed caused by bad waver. ner facing off on the ground and on the air waves. why the war of words intensified so too the physical confrontations. john kerry who is in kiev has condemned what he has

called the act of aggression and he has promised 1 billion-dollars in u.s. aid. president vladimir putin sapresident vladimir putin says russia will use all means necessary to protect citizens in eastern ukraine. he says the ousted president was purkeed from power, in an unconstitutional coupe. and -- >> pro russian portioned here involved in a stand off with soldiers at an air base. warning shots were fired into the air, as the ukrainians approached unarm to act for access to their plane. and that is where we begin our coverage with this report. the ukrainians were met with russianed and fire. shots fired into the air warning to troops to stay back. they were local too. the men shouted.

>> they carries a flag, as if reminding there was a time when these two were fighting together. >> >> a russian commander has been called. there was even. but one self-defense unit arrived the ukrainians fall in and m off. their point made. >> so the ukrainian soldiers came out of their base and were headed towards the

airstrip, because they wanted to reach the weapons depot, and that's when they were stopped. now, there have been negotiations throughout the day between the ukraine january and the russian commanders. we still don't have the jut come. >> the overnight deadlines for ukrainian troops to give up the rugs passed with no sign of the military storm that had been threatened. position cow denied there was ever a deadline. this soldier said none of his team would vow allegiance to the new pro russian government. >> marines never surrender, nobody at the base wants to switch sides, take an oath of loyalty to a dubious government that not been elected legally. >> without insignia, and the russian mainland is just 4 1/2 kilometers away across a stretch ottawa water. another stand off of sorts. ukrainian ships, flanked by russians, watching their ever move.

the regional capitol was quiet, some volunteers security staff guard the parliament, but there's no sign of the odd man could have been here the day before. al jazeera, premier. >> well, russian president vladimir putin says he hopes that moscow doesn't have to use force to protect russians in ukraine. but putin insisted that his country has a right to do so. as he accused western nations of driving ukraine into an narkky. from moscow. the russian president scat before a select few journalists and began by taking their questions. they asked viktor yanukovych, he answered legally there is only one legitimate president, it is clearly doesn't have any power, that's understandable. i have already said this, and i want to repeat that the legitimate president

in purely legal teams is of course yanukovych. >> they asked about the possibility of war in ukraine, and he answered. >> we acted legitimately. even if we use force lit be legitimate procedures only. >> then they asked about his intentions in premier. we have not considered the premier, only the citizens must decide their future. >> fur a man who has been so silent on the eugene crisis for so long, he had a lot to say, some of it against the western public tiers he accuses -- and some of it insisting that russian's involvement is a humanitarian action. he didn't seem too concerns. >> g. eight leaders are spoke to be turning up to sochi in june, with russia as the host and

chair country. but, because of international anger at russia, there's now serious doubt about whether the summit will go ahead. that's a shame suggested vladimir putin, saying we are ready to welcome our international partners but if they don't want to come, well, they don't have to. >> al jazeera, moscow. mr. considerry is in kiev, and he has asked for an excuse. urged two leaders to resolve the crisis dip lo t maicly. >> if russia does not choose to deescalate, if it is not willing to work directly with the government of ukraine, we hope they will be. then, our partners will have absolutely no choice but to join us to continue to expand the steps we have taken in

recent days in order to isolate russian politically, diplomatically, and economically. i would emphasize to the leaders of russia, this is not something we are seeking to do, this is something russian sha's choices may force us to do. >> standing by in washington, d.c., first, to kiev to tim friend, and john kerry, when he talked about walking with the protestors who we might be able to see, if it wasn't so misty behind you, who he said had done what they have done was he able to offer anything more tangible? >> well, he has come forward with the plan for the new administration. some loan guarantees and he said that the quite will lead the way in any international monetary fund aid, that was forthcoming.

but it all comes with a certain amount of strings attached, one suspects that the economy here in kiev will need to be reyou remember toed pretty drastically. it's said to need $35 billion over the next two years. just to survive. and it's dysfunctional, and we have seen in the past that when the west comes forward, with it it tents to demand a certain amount of posterity in return. and perhaps there lies the danger, because a lot of this turmoil and unrest, in ukraine is driven by the collapse in the economy and if the ordinary man and woman in the street were to think they were going to face yet more even though it may be in return for aid, then the risk for further turmoil would be there, and may even grow.

something is going on, it suggested between the new ukrainian ministers and perhaps some people in moscow in. >> yes, this was very interesting. this was the ukrainian prime minister here in kiev. he's remarked are somewhat eclipsed because the world's eyes were on kerri at the time. but the prime minister who was elected last week, confirmed in parliament said that his ministers had started to talk to their opposite numbers in moscow. and this is intriguing, because given the nature of this crisis, one might have been led to believe that there was no contact at all going on during this stand off. but clearly, mrs. some kind of dialog going on. so perhaps there may be developments that emerge

from those talks. >> tim, thank you very much, indeed, tim friend in kiev, as we said we are off to washington, d.c. for us, what are the thoughts of the u.s. president and what is going on? >> he later -- slightly more nuance line in ways but still sticking to this idea that you can't just go invading countries in the twenty-first century, you have to abide by international law, and go through constitutions which likely they are unlikely to take onboard. look, the u.s. has invaded all these countries without any international law, so there is a sense that -- on what we can and can't do. here is what the president had to say. from the pertive of the european union, the united states, allies like canada and japan, and friends and partners around the word, there is a strong belief that

russia esa action is violating international law. i think everyone recognizes that although russia has legitimate interests, in what happens in neighboring state that does not give it the right to use force as a means of exerting influence inside of that state. >> it is a given it will go to ukraine or may that be difficult. >> yeah, we think john kerry may have misspoken in his speech. he said it has already been appropriated. as far as we have been cold, they still have to go through congress to get this billion dollars loan guarantee. there is a lot of support there in congress, for helping ukraine, less support, though, for having an enormous show down with russia on trade, on serving no

support or very little support i would imagine for any kind of military intervention. mrs. a sense that look, there isn't much point in the u.s. having some huge trade war with russia, when the trade council so little between the u.s. and russia. it is up to the europeans to do that, the europeans are rather addicted to the russians billions of dollars so they are reluctant to do so. so why should we go down -- go and get into a trade war, when all that money will probably end up flowing into europe. and so there's a lot of discussion still going on, a lot of diplomacy coming up in the coming days but i think everyone has a sense will want to deescalate that, so we will want to see if geostrategy wins out. >> we will be talking more about those possible sanctions. and in washington, d.c., thank you very much. term friend, in kiev. now, we have the rest of the day's news coming up and it includes.

new fighting in syria's capital has stopped aid from reaching desperately hungry refugees. we report from a town in venezuela and it is 100 days and counting until the world cup will take a look at how brazil will be using drones, as part of their security operations. now the word is that syria has agreed to a new plan to remove all of its chemical weapons by april. taxed with destroying the pace of removing chemicals is as last picking up. during an attacks on eastern damascus.

i am sick, can't you see, i am starving. my son is very sick, there are no doctors to see him. i asked for medicine, and they told me to feed him right. but i have nothing to buy it with. fightingers on both sides are accused of breaking a truce. agrees to let gunman keep the peace, to keep rebel and government fighters out. but the ricks say they were smuggling in weapons. syrian forces deny that. activists say around 100 people are believed to have died of starvation, since the blockade began almost a year ago. these cues just some of the thousands trapped here.

>> but most recently, the threat has come from the bad weather that swept across europe. >> when it rains for many days the many acres of the orbing logical site yet to be escalated become water logs and then the soil starts pushing and this is the result. >> in 2013, the european union pledged around $150 million to pay for swepting restoration with state of the art technology. only one of the nine works have been completed. >> the restoration work is in progress, in the next few days will start to secure entire areas to make sure there won't be abe more collectors. >> with pompei, falling further into ruin, time is running out, before this world heritage site really does become history. al jazeera, pompei. >> and that is the latest

stories. up the latest john kerr cannery is visiting kiev. he has condemned what he calls russian sha's act of aggression. promise $1 billion in aid. pro russian forces have been involved in a stand off with soldiers as an air base in ukraine's pry mere peninsula. they called the sanctions against russia has backfired.

how much business russia does with the west and the impact that sanctions could have. >> as russia waits up it's next move, so too is the west, urging to back off ukraine. while the e.u. sees it's agreed to consider what it called targeted measures. but threats russians prime minister says won't help. our sanctionsly not even exaggerate, they never lead to anything good and hope that they understand this is counter productive to the activity. mentions etrade sanctions against russia. >> the commitment to choose a path out of confrontation and military action. >> a lot of that is

generated from russian sha's gas. earning the kremlin almost $100 million a day. but the relationship is value to believe russia as well. the e.u. is the biggest investor responsibility for 75% of direct farm investment. so why russia may have its hand on the gas tap, it may prove too costly to turn off. >> the economic data we have seen so far, has shown that the russian economy is actually slipping into recession. so they need the oil revenues to keep marry economy going. >> the u.k.'s willingness to impose sanctions has been further pulled into question, after secret government document was reportedly photographed as it was carried down downing street.

rather it should look to joining other members in considering travel bans. >> even cysting all options for it's response to russia remain on the table. but those options can be driven by purse strings rather than poll sixes with the markets ultimately in control. al jazeera, london. >> who is a senior economists russia joining me live from moscow, your thoughts on this. are there any sanctions that could be imposed on the authorities or individuals that would hurt the russians more than they would hurt those imposing them? >> well, my sense is that if the sanctions are imposed for individuals, then it's unlikely that there is a significant

macroeconomic effect. i think clearly a lot of the damage the sanction itself the most severe one probably happened already, and this has to do with the fact that there was a significant decline in the financial markets, a significant spike in risk aversions, vis-a-vis the markets in russia. and of course, the outflows significant capital outflows that may follow, of course. sanctions of various kinds can exacerbate these negative implications of what happened. again, if these are sanctions that are imposed on certain individuals i am not sure

how significant they are going to be. >> we have heard that russia could be headed toward as recession. how strong do you think the economy is? how much would a hit would financial penalties make on russia? >> well, the economy is indeed in deceleration mode. if several years ago, russia's growth was beyond 4%, more recently, we are seeing signs of notable deceleration, last year, the growth was just above 1%. and there are signs in the further slow down is well possible. the most -- the weakest link in russia's growth performance is investment, and this is precisely something that may be effected by greater risk perception

and in terms of sanctions. again, this is something that may to some degree accentuate the situation, but again, it will not be a qualitative factor in the overall direction in my view of how the economy performs the most. significant far tor is the oil price, and currently it is relatively confidentble, for the budget, for economic growth, and i think that's something that to a significant degree neutralized the negative effect we have seen comer from higher risk diversion russia is is still the biggest gas reserves in the world, who is going to turn around in a world that is to depend on other people's energy who is going to turn around to russia and say keep it we don't want it.

it just isn't going to happen. >> well, yes i think what we have seen throughout the past decade was certainly that russia solidified it's position in the world markets in terms of being a very important ex-porter of fuel abroad, especially in terms of it's weight within europe. but also we are talking about the trade lengths between russia and europe, it is also the other side of the equation, which is the importance of russia to europe. a lot of the key players are significantly depend on significant supplies on significant exports that they direct to russia. and russia is a big market, it is one of the largest markets out there in europe right now. in terms of the size of the market, and the

dynamism, and the strength. >> we thank you, indeed, for that. you may be interested to hear this news, for now on the news hour, a little bit of news about financial penalties. routers news agency describing what has been described as a preliminary deal to freeze the assets of 18 ukrainians after ukraines new leaders said the billions of dollars in public funds had gone missing. and egyptian court has banned the activities of the palestinian group which rules the gaza strip. it also awarded the assets to be seized. they have condemned but it does need to be endorsed by the government before it can come into effect. the egyptian army chief, says he cannot ignore

concerned about the fate of these journalists and would hope that they could be released as soon as possible. if journalists carrying out legitimate reporting have no place in detention. that's what i have for you on that. >> world powers to take around the ability to enrich uranium. the fair committee, that is 8th. >> letting iran enrich uranium, would open up a pandora's box of nuclear proliferation, in the middle east and around the world. that must not happen. more from tomac who reports from washington, d.c.

>> investor a tension exchange of views at their meeting at the white house, it was not reflected many the speech to this very proisrael audience. but it was noted that he repeated again, the main point of difference between the white house and the israelis regard thing current negotiations with iran. ish cysting that it is not sufficient for the iranian program to be frozen. there has to be verifiable guarantees that the iranians are not pursuing what he called the military elements of the program. that iran was not to be trusted and that sanctions should be adopted by the united states, in the event that iran re-negged or current agreement, or walked away from the table. >> . >> to collect a $9 billion ecuadorian

judgement against the fuel company chevron. it was sued on behalf of 30,000 people, over environmental damage in the amazon rain forest. is t. judge has now said fraudulent evidence was submitted. >> a study or more than 100,000 women in australia, has found that an vaccine against the hpc virus is effective. the success and safety of the vaccine has been questioned by opponents. hpv is one of the most commonly sexually transmitted diseases. over half of the world sexually active population has contracted it. the study looks at 100,000 program. where the program has

been running since 2007, and it found that those women who received three doses of hpv vaccine were 46% less likely to develop serious cervical abnormalities such as cancer. jessica worked with cancer research, and she says parents can be confident that the vaccine is safe. >> there has been cased reported where people have thought that serious adverse consequences have been caused by the hpv vaccination, on investigation, most of those the,k based ones with which i'm familiar have been found not to be down to the advantage teen. and in fact, this has a very very good safety profile. it is at least as safe as many other vaccines can are availability. and on the plus side, it reduces the risk of getting both a sexually

transmitted inefficacy also cervical captioner, so really it outweighs the harm. >> in just a couple of minutes off tomia jeer yeah with it's very special school could be floating on borrowed time. and the chicago winning streak comes to an end, we have robin and the rest of the sport if you stay with us.

because it was try to put the school. as we have a rise it was built by local people, using local materials. for the labor development, that means the floating school could be demolished too. it can't be towed away either. the government says it wanted to build proper houses here. the design thinks the floating school can be integrate bad any plans the government may have, and he says it also makes environmental sense. >> i believe if you think about it from the view of the climate change. and the fact that increase in flooding, and

rainfalls and the currencies all over africa, you -- it's perhaps tells you something to think about how you can use these kinds of communities and think about them for models for cull i have tating and cities, in africa. >> so now the school is the only floating building in ma cocoa and winning a design award may be the only thing that saves it. >> thank you so much. it is 100 days until the start of the world cup. spending a lot of money on security. the federal government has been warned about threats of terrorism, like we saw last year, reports now from santa maria. >> it buzzes overhead, taking off for another training flight. s in one of the new

$12 billion drones. >> images gathers will be sent in real time to other agencies and a central command center, where quick decisions can be made. >> the drones kept a close eye on the brazilian national team bus going to the stadium in brazil during last june's cup, and fearing the match outside the stadium, that backed images of street protests looking for any trouble that could arise. for example, they will only be used for surveillance and recognizance. >> but it is on the ground where the biggest threats to football could occur, it was a street protest that nearly toppled the football tournament last year.

on this day, the police are doing a simulation on how to best prepare with updating training and advance in equipment, supplementing by more boots on the ground. brazil is plenty of attacks that come with all major events in any country. brazil is spending more than 1 billion r thats on world cup security, rafael of the local human rights ngo says it is too much money with too little accountability. do those threats really exist? >> brazilian officials respond they can't wait to find out the risks after the fact, but when drones are just one of the new security tools at

their disposal, it is now landing with fuel, but promising to take to the skies once more, when the football matches begin. al jazeera, santa maria, brazil. >> has announced he will leave the spanish championships at two end of the season, can 35-year-old's decision coming just days after scoring, but he has only played 12 times this season, due to knee injuries. he has spent 14 years of his career at the new camp with his debut back in 1990, the defender of the champions league, three times and six spanish la league titles. >> after the last two aggressive surgeries i am finding it hard to get back to the level i want myself to be at.
