6:00 pm
seafood trade is in the area i've been covering all of latin america for most of my career, but no country is alike and it's my job to shed light on how and why noon . this is al jazeera ah and i on money inside. this is the news, our lie from doha, coming up in the next 60 minutes. more reinforcements u. s. troops arrive in poland to counter rushes, growing military presence on the border between ukraine and the levers. anger and frustration in the netherlands homes i make restrictions get a big crowd reaction in rotterdam. eve
6:01 pm
with the legendary indian singer latham and jessica has died at the age of $92.00. she's been laid to rest with state on us on 70 years and counting the longest reigning monarch in british history celebrates her platinum, jubilee, and sport. we build up to the final of the africa, a couple of nations between egypt and synagogue. and it's been a historic bay and bay gene for new zealand. winning is 1st ever gold medal. i to winter olympics. ah, with no end in sight to the stand off between russia and the west over ukraine. moscow is flexing its military muscle near the ukrainian border. some of the latest satellite photos paint a picture of russia's capability is if conflict were to break out. these images
6:02 pm
show the hardware deploy to belarus despite the kremlin insistence that there is no intention to invade ukraine. russia has also sent 2 long range nuclear capable bombers for a practice run over batteries. at the same time, more us troops, reinforcements have arrived in poland as nato bolsters its east and flank in response to russia's military build up to all. strafford is an eastern ukraine and says the president remains in a tricky position. president zalinski has been of course, very appreciative to his nato partners and european countries for, for example, the supply of additional weapons to nato countries in eastern europe. he's been very appreciative of the kind of training that ukraine in forces have received over the years by m. nato partners. but he is also been certainly in the last few
6:03 pm
days and publicly criticized some western countries. notably the u. s. for what he describes is potentially foaming up fermenting, sorry, a hysteria and causing problems for ukraine. notably, for example, i'm the ukranian economy. a bear in mind that prison zalinski came to power. he won that presidential election in 2019 with a promise. and that promise was to return crimea to ukraine, to end the war in dumbass. and he has failed on both those fronts. and so there are increasing voices. analysts saying that the president, ukrainian president is increasingly concerned that if indeed there wasn't an invasion, he will be getting a lot more pressure from the west to implement his side of the mince to agreement and agreement that he says is far too much weighted in russia's favor,
6:04 pm
so it's very apparent that as i say, despite his appreciative remarks for this kind of support, he is in a very tricky place, both internationally and with respect to the kind of properties that you may to, he said, domestic audience also ask as alan fessor, his life are in washington dc. alan son, more us troops and just landed in europe. what else can you tell us about this deployment? while the national security advisor jake sullivan has just appeared on a couple of network tv shows here in the united states, the sunday political talk shows to say that they are not going to fight russians. they are there to help me to allies, 1700 and to pull in 300 into germany. jake sullivan was one of the 4 people who has been briefing lawmakers on capitol hill. this happened on thursday. they were there for 6 hours. they laid out various scenarios as far as the united states is concerned, and the intelligence that they had gathered among those giving the briefing where
6:05 pm
antony blinkin, who of course, is the secretary of state, lloyd austin, the defense x ray jake sullivan. and there is mark milly, who is the top of that military officer in the united states. is the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, essentially the told at lawmakers that look, a vladimir putin has 70 percent of what he needs for a full invasion of ukraine. they reckon the most likely time table for that is sometime after the olympics when the ground in ukraine is very hard because of the winter frost and would be able to move tanks very easily and mark milly's assessment is that the russians could possibly take the capital keep within 72 hours that the painter pretty gruesome picture of how this would impact ordinary people in ukraine. they say that could be somewhere in the region of 50000 casualties, dead and injured 25000 ukranian troops could be dead. somewhere up in the region of 10000 russian troops killed and the sea, there could be a massive movement of people somewhere in the region of 1000000,
6:06 pm
many of them heading for poland, refugees at from any conflict. of course, this is just an assessment from the united states. as for the russians, they say it's nonsense. they say look, you can make anything up if you want and claim there's an intelligence briefing behind it. but i can't show you that intelligence, the russian ambassador to the united nation. see, we could see the americans are about to invade britain with a 130000 casualties at it doesn't mean to say that that's going to happen. they have no intention. he read here restated of invading ukraine, and of course, there are many in washington who will point to the fact that the united states has got intelligence support strong in the past, most notably over weapons of mass destruction in iraq. but so still, jake sullivan, on the national show is just a few minutes ago, was saying the united states as preparing for contingencies. they would like there to be a diplomatic solution to this, but they are making sure they are in place ready to respond to any possible russian
6:07 pm
aggression. and he thinks that alan fish are there for us in washington. so supposing russia does invade ukraine at some point, then what happens command santa maria has been looking at some of the potential scenarios. russia and ukraine shed around 2000 kilometers a border, which means all along that line there, ample opportunities for russia to make some sort of incursion. and remember, it already has you got these gray areas, the separatist regions of done yet in the hands got crimea in the south. it means moscow already has a foothold in the country. and on top of that, we know there is a list. these varying levels of russian troop build ups in all these locations, none of this is new, but it is worth remembering what the map really looks like. now the center for strategic and international studies, which is a think tank a base in washington has been running a few that likely scenarios and it is the existing geography which plays a big pot. for example. there is actually a river,
6:08 pm
i'm going to sort of roughly draw it in here that runs all the way through ukraine . it's the de netra actually stops in russia. it goes through belarus, and then at 3 ukraine up to the black sea. if russia invades, than the dynette, performs a sort of natural defacto border, if you like. and russia can sort of add on to the territory where it already has a presence. or there is a southern option. and this brings crimea into play, which russia annexed back in 2014 down the south. their trips can easily move in from the south. they can come in as well from the 8th. and in doing so, it's sort of creates a little belt of territory, right across the bottom of ukraine from done yet. so through to that little thin sliver of lambda, which is called trans mystery, a breakaway region of moldova. doing that cuts off ukrainian access to the black sea and secures fresh water supplies for crimea. let's get more less. we can speak to theresa fallon, who is direct at the center for russia, europe, asia studies she previously served as member the
6:09 pm
e strategic advisors group to nato. she joined us on scott from brussels. thank you for your time. so based on the military moves made by russia that we've seen in recent weights, what do you think is russia's game plan here? i think there have been 3 significant developments we saw on friday. the not the much anticipated announcement of the she put a meeting before the olympics, and this is a key statement saying that beijing backs moscow's moves, and so especially in their position towards nato. so this kind of shows that putin has the backing of china, which is a very key point. and it also shows how the geopolitical plates are moving in the world. and in regard to international relations. the 2nd issue that i think is pretty frightening is how put in has announced that they're going to do nuclear exercises in february. so this might be at the time that he's also maybe maneuvering more troops into position. so it's sending
6:10 pm
a very frightening message to the rest of the world, reminding everybody that they have a huge nuclear arsenal. and then you, you put this with their hypersonic missiles that both china and russia have developed. it really does kind of increase the level of threat. and lastly, we see that even though there are attempts to have dialogue, true movements and material are being moved by russia into this region. so i think that this is a very worrisome message to the rest of the world. yes, the u. s. is sending some troops to nato members as or the reassurance, but they're very small. i mean, it's just a few 100 troops, 300 troops, as your reporter announced in germany. and i think that's altogether 3000. but it's a reassurance for members of nato. and i think that everyone is watching very closely the developments in ukraine. and i would like to just have one more point about the budapest memorandum. because, you know, this has implications for the whole world to put past memorandum was negotiated to
6:11 pm
help. you can't remove it's nuclear weapons and the u. s. u k and russia were to guarantee the sovereignty of ukraine. and now we're seeing negotiations with iran. also north korea's nuclear power. this also a sense of a very negative message that if you give up your nuclear weapons saying you might be re absorbed like what's happening with ukraine. being absorbed by moscow puts a point when we look back in 2014, russia was a cause successful in taking over territory from ukraine. the crimea. would you say the circumstances this time on different could be, have a different outcome this time? yes, the certain things are very different because of the crucible of war. we forget, you know, we should remind ourselves that for 14 year, since 2014, there has been a war going on for 8 years. 14000 people have died. and so this has made, you can even more pro nato, so the people who support it. russ, actually because of this period of war and the weakening of the ukrainian economy.
6:12 pm
this has created a desire to move closer to the west. not be so close to russia, so i think that is kind of a boomerang to on, on the kremlin. and i think that putin sees this opportunity now because things, if they develop more democratic institutions. yes it's, it's got training wheels on. it has to learn, it has to improve, but it will be more difficult in the future. so he's adding up all his calculus and decided that this might be the most opportune time to, to make his, his move some very strong rest. right. coming out of the us today saying that they believe that the russian military has assembled 70 percent of the forces. it would need to amount to full invasion of ukraine. what, what do you think of this restaurant? is this a strategy on the u. s. pot? well, in order to have peace, you must prepare for war,
6:13 pm
so you must have all you have to consider all possibilities. and if there should be, god forbid war, there would be high casualty rates among the civilian population. close. the rest of europe would have millions of people moving as refugees into europe, so this would also be rather d, stabilizing. so europe has not seen such a large troop movements since the beginning of the cold war. and i think that there is huge concern that we're looking forward. president of krona france is traveling to moscow on monday as another attempt at diplomacy to try to deescalate. but this also plays dangerously into putin's hands because he's trying to break your up. he's trying to fracture, you're trying to find where weaknesses are, and we know present micron has cited in the past. nato is brain dead. so the timing of this during an election year for president macro is key. he's trying to show that he can, you know, solve all the problems here. and it also shows that maybe nato partners are all
6:14 pm
speaking with one voice. thank you for your time theresa fallon, director of the center for russia, europe, asia studies speaking to a staff in brussels. much of the focus of the tension between russia and ukraine has been on energy supplies and the disruption a will would cause to that. but as hold on at the made reports, global food supplies could also be affected by the winters, no lies ukraine's black earth known here as channels. and it's highly fur tile. and it's what makes this country a major player in global agriculture market. here at agro complex a 2 hour drive from give about $18000.00 tons of corn, wheat, rice, sawyer, barley and sunflower are produced every year. tom was to me, it was as is him rock, you know what? because we are in a state of war. we had to switch suppliers and we used to rely on russia for spare
6:15 pm
parts of fertilizer and diesel. we also faced problems because of the occupation of don bass and crimea. so if there is a full scale invasion, it will be a disaster for every one or what we can't focus on this now. but about 70 percent of each year's harvest head to the black sea port of odessa and from there to consumers around the world. ukraine is one of the major exporters of grain in the world. actually this farm alone exports about 70 percent of its production. so any disruption here, good to have a huge impact on global distribution and supply. last year, ukraine produce about a 100000000 tons of grain. only 25 percent went to the local market. the rest made its way to asia, the middle east and africa. ukraine's wheat accounts for half of all wheat consumed in lebanon, 43 percent in libya,
6:16 pm
and 22 percent in yemen. and ukrainian barley represents nearly a 100 percent of saudi arabia's barley imports. and about 50 per cent of egypt needs. some of these countries are economically battered and are ready, suffer food shortages, phrases went up due to the corona virus pandemic. now, the threat of war means that the staples may soon cost even more. the last 3 weeks more and more concern is that sa, mom, logistic companies, international companies, de afraid to go to ukraine and ah, black supports because they are selling deadline. death. look the race, a literary where else waiting the war to start. and if you go there, so we can lose our facilities, etc, etc. over the past 20 years,
6:17 pm
ukrainian harvest boosted the country's role as a global breadbasket. much of the focus is on energy supplies. while talk of an imminent war is already biting at the country's economy. but the threat to ukraine's grain experts could pose at great risk to global food security. would abdul hamid al jersey that she told me at a blast ukraine? lindsey moore has on the news. i including morocco mon, suggests it's a 5 year old boy who delight today's trapped in a well out in sport. ken mohammed sala. when his 1st trophy with egypt, we build up to the africa cup of nations. ah, that protest isn't police don't usually see eye to eye, but in the netherlands, that got one thing in common. they've taken the same route for rallies through the
6:18 pm
streets of rotterdam, but for different reasons. thousands of demonstrators happen out showing the anger of the dutch governments 19 restrictions and vaccine mandates, and the police on strike demanding more money to deal with those kinds of protest. step baffin has the latest, most of them most lumped on restrictions have been lifted here in the netherlands in the last couple of weeks, but thousands of people here on the streets, on route to that, saying they want their freedom back. people from the fire brigade, i hear people from all walks of life, many here are and do you fact seems, but also people from the far right, but also people who are vaccinated, but they say they don't want the divisions in society because of a q r code half a 1000000 people in the matter have not got their booster shot. they refuse to get the 3rd shot, and they are not allowed to enter any restaurant bars starting this tuesday. so there's a lot of resentment about this division in suicide. meanwhile,
6:19 pm
will 8th is on strike to day. they say they're not guarding this demonstration. they have been guarding demonstrations in the last 2 years. nearly every week. have been serious. riots here in rotterdam, police has shot at damage rate, doesn't also do you and repertoire for georgia has complained that the dutch police has used excessive violence during these protests. so it is a lot of for sad with among these protests as well about police actions. 2 days of national morning have begun for the legendary singer known as the nightingale of india and queen of melody. latham and jessica died in hospital age 92 after testing positive the coven. last month rank. a got to look back at the life and legacy of the ravine cultural star. oh to many in india and beyond. to listen to let them again. her songs is to hear the voice of a nation. ah,

6:38 pm
the watchdog which overseas, the independence of the courts is corrupt, am, has delayed politically sensitive investigations. critics say he's targeting the judiciary to consolidate power of all national institutions. he dismissed his government and suspended parliament, lost an eye as get more less with elisia vulcan who joined us from tunis. and he explained to us what sides doing here by scrapping this judicial council so this comes off to months of buckling between ty syiaa and the supreme judicial council, which as you say, is a watchdog. and aside, has been trying to push forward a number of prosecutions against your political figures and members of parliament and the judiciary. who's pushed back to this at the supreme judicial council who supported this. so science sees the i, this is jojo potter, the opposition against him. and side is claiming that the judiciary is corrupt and
6:39 pm
that he's accusing a hidden powers of your backing. these are these actions all your what he says is hiding cases. so what he's found is the executive power and legislative power has been quite simple, but judicial power has proven very tricky to overcome. now are all this is happening, rally has been held to commemorate the death of the left wing activists. tell us more about the timing of this demo. this is it. an anniversary and each year the family and supporters, those shock creep, elijah who is a member of parliament assassinated back in 2013, come out demanding that a murder investigation be held into his debt. he was charged 4 times in the chest by alleged terrorists, and there's never been a murder investigation or what know that for them they don't believe that justice
6:40 pm
has been served. so this is a kind of a, a nexus between a long foutz grievance against the judicial system and sides grievances against the judicial system. so today's always a very emotionally charged day and it says people are struggling to see sort of a way forward. it seems that the judiciary is yet another institution that they're losing faith thing. so they're hurts and jenny and ty sides. ambitions have kind of become in parallel to day. and there is of movement that is supporting the sides decision to dissolve the supreme judicial counsel that has been demonstrating to day. and he's a holcman. thank you for explaining that to us. now it selection day in costa rica, why high unemployment on corruption on major issues, vivacious as they choose, a new president $25.00 candidates running,
