we are committed to diplomatic trek, and we are ready to engage with russia at different levels in order to find a diplomatic solution to the conflict. however, if russia decides to fight, will fight and that this is our country, and we will defend it. after talks empowers on wednesday, russia says advises from both sides, plus france and germany have agreed that the si, fi should be in place in eastern ukraine. they meet again in berlin in 2 weeks time . well, let's bring in dosage of our who's our correspondence in moscow and of course, dosa, i mean what more moscow saying because on the surface that's certainly not happy with the u. s. s. response. so one wonders what direction the talks head tools well, i think it's important to point out 1st that although the russian foreign minister said that they did not have positive responsive looking for on the main issue from

the american government, they did receive some positive responses on secondary issues and circuit love rock was somewhat optimistic that they could continue to dialogue with the americans based on that. but of course, one has to wonder how far will they get when they can't agree on the core issue. and that is, of course nato's expansion. that is a cause for concern for the russians. the foreign minister said that they will also make the responses they receive from the american public in due time. we expect to know more details about what has been given to the russian president vladimir put in the kremlin, confirming, just a short while ago that the russian president has received the response from the t o and the u. s. government. and he studying it and will respond soon. the kremlin also said that it doesn't look to mistake for them based on what they perceive so far. and that the currents, russia west relations are resembling that of during the cold war era. certainly not

words. we were expecting to hear at this time, there was some optimism that there could be diplomatic way forward. but on the main issues there seems to be still very much differences that are remaining. and there is still a diplomatic pass being pushed to forward. the russian foreign minister and his american counterpart secretary state anthony blue can, will meet again the date and time of that has yet to be announced. but we also know that the russian president vladimir putin will be holding a phone conversation with the french president emmanuel micron on friday. so there is still a glimmer of hope that diplomacy is continuing and dialog continues. but on the core issue, as the russians are certainly not happy, and it remains really up to the president as to where to go from here. and we'll have to wait and see what he decides. the finished dosage of ari, the correspondents in moscow that tens of thousands of people,

a certain country because they don't like political activist or left wing political activist. in my case, you report obtain personal data, thousands of citizens after french police hacked into an encrypted phone messaging service. as a result, dutch french, german, and british police arrested hundreds of suspected criminals in 2020, in the so called and called chap case. the most remarkable find was a container equipped to torture people. lawyers are questioning the legality of the operation, and you see fish new. ok. so if you see a wave of court cases now in the netherlands, u. k. france being finland and germany. everyone is fighting this, but so far clarity has not been given bass. this is quite unique because anchored chat is one of the biggest hex ever done by the police. and they should clarify if it was done legally, the european data protection supervisor has company. if you are pulse practices with those at the american, by agency as we field by whistleblower, edward snowden in 2013. so you can not collect the data just in case it will be
