she's warning of massive consequences if moscow invades ukraine. fundamentally, a war and ukraine would be disastrous for the russian and ukrainian people and for european security. and together, nato has made it clear that any incursion into ukraine would have massive consequences and carry severe costs. normally is always the machine you most no doubt of course, who need to normalize relations. but this is supposed to be based on mutual and respectful dialogue, principles of equality and recognition of each other's interest. you will get to me as for id allergies, ultimate and with threats. this is a dead end street, m o healed nothing. unfortunately, some of our western colleagues have been carried away with this in their public statements, and i cannot call this diplomacy. my rush and valerie have started joint military drove. the kremlin, says the 10 day exercise will focus on what is described as repelling external

aggression. but the russian troop movements has nato worried. the u. s. has same to an additional military convoy to romania. a 1000 american soldiers will join at $900.00 troops already sanction them covering development for us. let's bring in dosage of ira jabari who's lived for us in moscow. hello there, dosa. we are standing by for an official press conference with both trust and lab from. in the meantime, want multi tell us about their discussions. well, the 2 foreign ministers clearly have their own agendas, and we have to remember that this meeting was at the request of the british government for the british foreign secretary to come to moscow. and sergei love rob only confirm that just few days ago that they've agreed to have this meeting. as the british foreign secretary is here with really 2 main goals objectives. one is to spell out that the sanctions package that the british government is prepared in

case russia invade ukraine will be very, very much at not only detrimental to the russian economy, but also will hit vladimir putin's inner circle. they have, they, but russians have a lot of investments in the u. k, especially the property market. and the british government has said that those are the ones that will also be included in any kind of sanctions that they would impose . and the foreign secretary also is a here with the aim of trying to convince the russian authorities to deescalate the current situation. we heard from the foreign secretary before going into that meeting, that they cannot ignore the amount of yeah, russian troops that have been gathering near the border with ukraine. and she said that will also be the focus of their discussions. and the russian foreign minister said loughborough, for his part, said that these kinds of threats and ultimatums are not diplomacy. this is not the way to move forward. both are foreigners, as secretaries as saying that they are permanent members of the un security council

day of work together to try and deter iran from developing a nuclear weapon, referring to the joint and nuclear deal of 2015 that they're still working on to revive. so there is a sense that they have a lot to discuss and they've gone into this meeting behind closed doors and will expect a statement and a press conference to take place shortly when they come out. and we'll have to wait and see whether or not they've been able to get on the same page. but as things stand, both sides are very much entrenched in their own position. whether or not they will be able to get on the same page remains to be seen but highly doubtful at this stage. indeed, dose or, and another element in all of this is those wall games that are underway in belarus, between russian and bell, russian forces. what more can you tell us about those? well, these were drills that was announced by the russian defense ministry in january in coordination. and at the request of the bell, russian authorities,

they wanted to strengthen their borders. and as the 2 countries of decided to hold these drills and nato secretary general has said that they believed there's over 30000 a russian troops that are now in belgrade for these drills. it's not only the soldiers that are of concern, but also the amount of military hardware that's been shipped to bella bruce. of course, we have to remember. bell rouge shares a border with ukraine and poland. and that is, we're now at 1700 us troops have been stationed over the past few days. and there is that concern that this exercise that's going to be carried out for a 10 day period called allied resolve could really heightened as tensions that are ongoing. but we also know that the polish government is also concerns and that is where we're going to see the british, a prime minister boars johnson, later on today. and a war so has said that this military exercise is just an excuse for russia to build more troops alongside that border with their country. they, bela russia, president,

had said that they will continue military exercises with russia. you're going to have about 20 of them throughout the year. this is not something that they will be discussing with other countries. and the russians have also said that this is a matter of their own security, and that they will be at cooperating with bell roost to strengthen their borders. so this is also causing a lot of concern, and it will have to wait and see later on today, what comes from those meetings that are taking place with nato officials, as well as their british prime minister and his visit to poland. plenty of moving parts in his story. we appreciate the update as always. dosa jabari live for us in moscow. russian navy patrols off the coast of ukraine have increased, and 6 russian amphibious landing ships have arrived in the black sea for combat training missions. as charles straps reports, ukrainian fishermen say they are living in fear of being arrested and interrogated by russian intelligence. the freezing fog is thick speed out across the

sea, crimea, which was antics by russian forces 8 years ago, is not far from here. anton has come to check the area he will fish when the winter fishing season starts. next week. he insists on covering his face because he like hundreds of ukrainian fishermen has been detained by russian naval intelligence. in recent years. he says he was taken to a russian naval base, encourage the entrance to the black sea where he was interrogated and held for 15 days before being released. lot of the 3 listed there are many obstacles access to the sea as difficult russians don't allow us to work properly. they approach us and stop pushing us back, harassed us. we can't do anything of our small boat against their equipment. it was impossible to prove to them we have a right to be here. pointless trying. the wreck of a soviet fishing troll appears on an island around which ukrainian fishermen now

cost their nets less frequently. soviet build houses where fishermen used to stay, stand there near the shore were about 20 kilometers off the coast. fishermen tell us that normally in this area they'd be around a 100 ukrainian fishing vessels operating. but they say that number is dwindling fast because of fears of russian naval patrols. in 2003, russia and ukraine signed an agreement, which allows both countries to fish anywhere in the as of see since 2014, when russia unexplained, the moscow has increased its naval presence and taken greater control of these waters. and the larger black sea, which the, as off is connected to by the strait. in december, the ukrainian navy said russia blocked 75 percent of the as of by issuing navigation warnings. recent large scale russian naval exercises or crimea has fuel

fears that the criminal is preparing to invade ukraine by sea. something russia continues to deny. green, last 70 percent. it's released when russia sees control of crimea and sylvester poll the black sea port, city grange government. he's going small naval patrol vessels from nato palm as but seems powerless to better protect fishermen, curb courteous if there's a lot. of course i'm worried. we go far out to sea. we might not come back. it's good as the russians and for my families that they've taken us for. but there are many instances when they fall forged cases against us. and the risk being put in a russian prison for me is a fish market. trade is say they are feeling the financial fall out of rushes, actions, and see who choose for them. for me, all the situation has got really bad. no rush and tories small amount of fish from the boats because of problems that see the fusion industry suffering. and that

means we do to we repeatedly asked the ukrainian navy for comment about how it can better protect fishermen from what the government calls russian aggression with the navy refused because of what it says are security issues until i was afraid of fishing. these i see waters in the weeks ahead policy now increasingly on the russian control. cha, stratford al jazeera, the angel see some new crime to the world. news now in canada's prime minister has called a growing protest movement against cause of 19 measures, a threat to its economy track as an ad blocking a vital border. crossing with the united states. john henderson reports from the ambassador bridge between ontario and michigan. on the american side of the busiest land crossing between the u. s. and canada, not a wheel is turning. traffic on the ambassador bridge had been stopped in both directions. now on the other side, from canada to the us, just
