asian, or as johnson and president vladimir zalinski held talks in the capital on tuesday . the u. k. as often tens of millions of dollars in aid to assist ukraine. johnston's as russia is holding a gun to ukraine's hand in an effort to change the architecture of european security. the west fears russia is planning to invade its neighbour with tens of thousands of troops. tanks and artillery missiles gathered near the border. b u. s . and its allies are threatening tougher sanctions. the criminal insist there'll be no attack alongside other countries. we are also preparing a package of sanctions and other measures to be enacted the moment the 1st russian po, cat crosses further into ukrainian territory. and we have done all this, and preparers not as a show of hostility towards russia, but is a demonstration that we will always stand up for freedom and democracy and ukrainian sovereignty in the face of aggression thought my r bunker,

the we discussed a set of activities to provide deterrence measures against the russian federation. any activities, as i said, are better before rather than after. prevention is better than treatment is. this is supported by a recent decision within the u. k. a law which will broaden the sanctions in case of aggression against ukraine. we are grateful to great britain for their support on the escalator correspondent to hud abdul hamid in care of and they don't seem to appear at the stage or to agree on when to impose sanctions. do they i was certainly not on the face of it. vars johnson did say that should one russian soldier cross further into ukraine than sanctions will be immediately imposed on rush hour as president, bloody music and skinned as this is not the 1st time he says that has been wondering why sanctions haven't been imposed already. he said that he doesn't

understand why one has to wait for an escalation to start or an invasion to start for the sanctions to be imposed. rather, he thinks that imposing them now would be a good deterrence for russia as a certainly not seeing eye, to eye on a when to impose them. and then we don't know the details about which sanctions are being considered in case. we know that among the europeans there was a bit of where they were not really finding a compromise on how far the sanctions should go. how far reaching they should be and who they should really affect in russia, whether it's person people, maybe vladimir putin himself or for example, the banking system that international swift banking system. are some, some countries wanting to exclude russia for meant and that would obviously impede russia for making any kind of international bank transfers. and so hid the economy very badly as in, as zelinski say, no,

we should have these sanctions. now he didn't say which senses he prefers, but he thinks that that should be the time where sanctions are applied. and how does he lensky in the past few days had criticize when he describes pat, typing up of the idea of war. when he stand on that today with it, with the visits from the polish liter and the british liter, well, he should have said exactly the same thing. i think the problem for the ukranian president is on one side, he's welcoming all this aid coming in. the military aid coming in to financial aid, coming in, barbara johnson arriving today with further funding some $118000000.00 that will go for a tour was fighting corruption in this country is on one hand. he is very pleased about all that is something the country needs a badly. on the other hand, he wants to control the rhetoric he wants to control. you know,

that alarm is stone coming out of maybe downing street, the white house and other parts of europe. he said that that's causing a lot of a destabilization inside the country is impacting the already fragile economy. and in the long run, if you have a decent ballast ukraine, then it makes it much we're easy. a miss easier to invade, much more fragile. and so he is trying to get, find a balance between the 2 sides. on the other hand bar is johnson said, well, he is not being alarm is, he is basing all his word on intelligence assessment. he has received and he is not exaggerating anything when he comes into his reading of the situation along the borders hot after a thank you very much indeed. russia's president let him. putin says he hopes dialog on ukraine will continue in order to avoid so called negative scenarios, including war. in his 1st news conference,

the 1st time of course that we heard from russian president vladimir putin who had very specific responses to what we've been hearing and actually guessing over the past few weeks about specific russian demands. i'm worth stand at the moment. now, there are russian president said that the 3 cheat demands at rushes, making from nato and the united states about security guarantees are the following . first, nato does not expand any further and to new 2000 deploy weapons systems near russia's border as well as nieto returns to 1997 membership levels. that's when there was 16 countries in the alliance, and now there are 30. and he said that that when the russian signed the treaty with nato in 1997, there was never any mention of an open door policy, which we keep hearing about from the american. say, the russians can't do who can and cannot joints. he said that these 3 main concerns were completely disregarded by the americans in their counter response to what we've been asking from our security guarantees from nato. he said that even though

there is really no reason for anyone to suggest that we want to invade ukraine, there is really the, he doesn't see a solution to the current level of crisis that we find ourselves in. ah, west african states have condemned what they say was an attempted crew in guinea res. how any other sustain gunfire around the presidential palace in the capital? in a statement echo us also said held the military responsible for the well being of president tomorrow c. so co and barlow have been 9 coups or attempted crews since the former colony gained independence from portugal in 1974. and just last week there was a qu in book in a fast, so we don't know yet with the details of what's happening here. it is for us, clear the calls are totally unacceptable. we are seeing
