torture, censorship is not acceptable, and you won't hear such strong words from, let's say berlin or paris or london amen. in cairo on al jazeera, ah, ukraine calls for an urgent meeting with russia to explain the build up of troops on its borders. will take a closer look at brushes, claims that ukraine's paramilitary groups of ties to neo nazis. ah, hello and welcome. i and peter w, watching out his ear alive from also coming up after a week long stand off a police crackdown finally ends. the truck has processed on the u. s. canada border,

and it's super bowl sunday, tens of millions in the us get ready to watch the underdogs, cincinnati squaring off against the l. a. rams. ah, okay, let's go. going. ukraine is calling for talks, quotes within 48 hours with russia and other members of the organization for security and cooperation in europe as the troop build up continues along its borders. the country's leader latonia zalinski has invited the us president joe bite to kiev after a phone call between the 2 men. the german chancellor or la schultz is showing his support for ukraine to boeing immediate sanctions. if russia invades he'll be in kiev this week, before then flying on to moscow, the kremlin denies is planning any offensive, but as foreigners are told to leave international airlines weighing up whether to keep flying to ukraine, the dutch carrier care lamb has suspended its services. in

a moment, we'll get the laces from hydro castro in dc. first, this report from step boston. at the bhaskar air field rush and helicopter gunship stake through the air near by dozens of russian trucks. the training grounds, armored personnel carriers are transported towards the border with ukraine. the of barrows looks like a russian military zone is abandoned in the field, and above and near the city of homo is one of the 12 areas of russia unbearable conducting joint drills known as allowed to resolve. this is not allowed in the local people tell us it rip is in bad shape and has recently been used for sports competition. footage, released by the russian ministry of france, show the state of the art military equipment in action near the border between bellows and ukraine. and natal, several divisions of as $400.00 missile defense systems and dozens of so called

fighter jets taking part in the exercises. in response to questions from the baltic states that loose has confirmed that russian forces are also active outside the scope of these drills. so military units and sub units from the eastern military district of the armed forces of the russian federation, a performing task outside the framework of the exercise. they have been deployed and are performing practical measures to god the southern state border, where there are no opportunities to reinforce it using border patrol units of the republic of barrows. they are a lot of questions about the exact size and the real purpose of these exercises. happening around 20 kilometers from the border, which ukraine, for sure russian forces are a lot more active this close to the ukrainian capital key, s a lot more active than they've had been since the end of the cold war. but for many here, it's hard to believe that war is imminent. after a government crackdown and passes in 2020 independent media will shut down in

dallas. and it's embattled leader alex on the look shanker to russian president vladimir, put in for help for people living at home, out close to the border. it is difficult to find out what's going on because he won't happen. we were told it won't happen 1st, they said there will be worth what i wish the news and shame because if there won't be a war, they brought tanks and trucks and we thought it was a war. but it turns out it was a test of military readiness. laddie make up so i had a lead off, an opposition party and whole mal is not that optimistic use. as many people in ballard, i would like to demonstrate against the possible war, but are too scared to do so. when you those moved that move that's. i'm personally very worried. i have family. i don't want war. like most fella russians. but as i see, the developments going on so far under the disguise of military exercises, it naturally makes me very worried on this main road to ukraine's capital. kia

buses and trucks are still crossing the border, but key of is only 200 kilometers away. and russia show of military force nearby is making people in ukraine and western powers. very nervous stuff fastened else's era into blood sugar level. ok, let's get the picture out of dc hydro castro, joining us live this are heidi hi there. so this invitation from mr. zalinski to jo bite and just kind of increase the pressure on the bite and ministration to go further than they've gone to date. perhaps it does, peter, but you know what's telling is that this detail out of that call came not from the white house, but from the office of the ukrainian president lensky. now, in his read out of the call and his offices read out. it says that the lensky invited biden to go to cave in the coming days, quote, unquote, because the u. s. president presents there and the ukraine and capital would be crucial for de escalation. again,

there's no mention of this. and the official read out that came from the white house and we are waiting for a response to that invitation. what we do know from the white house is that this call lasted about an hour, and that biden said to zalinski that he affirmed that the you as an allies are ready to respond. he said swiftly indecisively. if russia furthers aggression against ukraine, if a recall yesterday biden use nearly those same words when he spoke with president of russia, a lot of your couldn't. and in that call, which was aimed at these de escalate the situation. apparently there was no breakthrough with a white house, a this morning repeating warnings that russia continues to prepare for a possible incursion. and that an invasion of ukraine could happen at any moment. and a pentagon spokesperson, also speaking this morning, saying that the time is narrowing for a diplomatic resolution. peter was being said in this, in the congress, heidi,

because presumably, if mr. bite and green light's something more military activity if you will. congress has got to get involved in that right. especially if sanctions are involved and president biden has been very clear that that may be the 1st thing that the u. s. does. however, there has been a pending bill in congress in the senate that has stalled involving sanctions against russia. what the hang up is, republicans have wanted these pre invasion sanctions to kick in. democrats had argue that they should kick it only if there is an evasion that occurs. there's also disagreement on the scope of these financial sanctions and worry among both parties that there could be fall out. there could be economic damage done throughout europe, which is something that both parties want to avoid. now, leaders of the republicans and democrats were public. we speaking about this today saying there is now

a renewed sense of urgency given this military build up along ukraine border. isn't that that might be, would bring both sides together because they agree they want to pass the sanction pass it the sanctions bill, the disagreement or in the details. peter, heidi, thank you so much. hi, to jo castro. they're talking to us live from washington. me now the police have cleared the remaining protest of an vehicles from a bridge on the canadian border with the us, but the crossing is not yet open to ordinary traffic. the blockade was part of protest across canada against cooper, 19 vaccine mandates and b. c correspondent, cal perry has more now from windsor ontario, just under a week now since the ambassador bridge has been blockaded and shut down. and this is really the 1st time that we've seen police be able to get protesters physically out of the area. you can see the intersection that we're talking about. we are about a mile from the ambassador bridge. and what's happening now is police are reinforcing

this road, this road leads to the bridge. it's about 3 kilometers from the bridge to one of the major interstate in canada. so this is the main thoroughfare and police are clearly trying to get it. not only this open, but to have it secure. the question for police moving forward is going to be whether or not they continue have to, to continue to have to play this, this game of whack a mole with protesters. because protesters have made it clear, it only takes a very small number of them to shut down what was until this week, the busiest crossing in north america. and meanwhile, similar protests of now spread to parts of europe as re challenge. now reports after nearly a week of protest and disruption, this was the end of the stand off on ambassador bridge. since saturday the canadian police in windsor, ontario had been gradually enforcing a court order made on friday to end the demonstration. by sunday, only a few stragglers remained most had left or been arrested. vehicle towed away the

bridge is one of canada's most important roots to the us with 25 percent of trade between the 2 countries using it. but for 6 days it was shut. as a protest started by truck is angry at mandatory coven vaccine certifications blocked it off. and the mandate in the past words, they let us live or large. we're sick and tired of it. canada is freedom convoy, as they called, it looks to be over now, but the idea has spread. this is paris france, $150.00 or so ca, setting off 1st to leo and then on to brussels. this is on that. i knew we will tell europe to join us so we can change things because the people need to make their voice heard to know that we are here. today. we have the impression that we look down on things are forced on us and we are forced to get vaccinated in order to keep our jobs. we don't want that. we don't want the suppression. we want to be free. brussels was quiet on sunday, but maybe not for long,

because of coven governments in western democracies have placed restrictions on people's lives. not seen outside of wartime. most citizens have complied, seeing them as for the greater good. but a vocal minority of finding ways to make their opposition rory helen's how to 0. well, hundreds of processes of march through the dutch city of the hague, the 2nd day to dance. corona virus restrictions there, be crowds demand to the right to move freely in solidarity with the truck drivers. protests and canada was brought otto, of course to a standstill. convo vehicles did the same in the hague city center on saturday, protests against cupboard. 19 vaccinations have drawn hundreds of people in the australian capital since november unvaccinated. people have only been allowed to leave home for essential purposes. the restrictions are being slightly relaxed, but next month the police will begin random checks and people who break the rules.

rio de janeiro on monday with the high of 21 degrees c. later. the julian, the debate, a race of black people from the american and global story was very powerful on an online your voice. the comment section is right, join our conversation, we had unprotected when everyone is protected. it is not being nationalistic about us. you just look at it in a very different way. said that perspective men and men meeting each other and they don't have any solutions. let me put it clear for you that dream analogy. era. oh,

the me. just before quarter, past the hour, these are your top story. so saucer, the ukraine calling for talks, quotes within 48 hours between russia and members of the organization for security and cooperation in europe. it's also invited to us president joe biden, to visit following a 50 minute phone call. crane is seeking transparency on russia's military build up . the number of russian forces in bella roost is the largest since the end of the cold war. they are engaged in intensive war games there. and the police in canada have arrested several people while clearing the remaining. coby 19 protesters and vehicles blocking a bridge on the us canada border bridge is due to reopen on sunday morning. on our top story, the government of ukraine is often accused of ignoring was described as near nazi paramilitary groups,

fighting russian back separatists. many se such groups have been an effective fighting force in the near h. e. a conflict in eastern ukraine. charles stratford has more now from khaki. have loved these men training on a football pitch in easton, ukraine say they want to defend their country from russian aggression cry. coal has its origin in german nationalists groups of the 18th and 19th century. and the leaders of the group say it has thousands of members who love, but only 60, have bought their own license weapons and regularly serve alongside ukrainian army soldiers on the 420 kilometer front line. 24 year old glib, studied homeland security and crisis management university. he says one day he wants to open a gun shop. why did you choose like? because or more logically, closer to me. so i decided to join the when you said they are

more ideologically closer to you, can you tell me what you mean by that? how. what do you believe in audio? let you pause that. why call is not the only group accused of being neo nazis that is appeared in ukraine's is the conflict with russian bank separatists started in 2014. the others like these men, with the powerful as off battalion, been incorporated into the ukrainian security services under the ministry of interior. for i co and many groups like them have been praised by ukrainians for their willingness to take up arms and defend the country against what they describe as russian aggression. but that does not mean that they are popular amongst voters at the ballot box. the coalition of right we groups only managed to win leslie suite, the center of the vote in the last parliamentary elections in 2019 with some of its

leaders, such is dimitra. yarrow sh will be made, advises to the head of the ukrainian military discipline. in this torch, riley resembling nazi gatherings in 1930 germany hold a banner honoring stefan bond era. ukrainian nazi collaborator, widely recognized as organizing the massacre of tens of thousands of ethnic poles and ukraine towards the end will to heard of montera is the nickname, fellow fry co volunteers gave this man 24 year old. barden says the group has its origin and what he calls hands slow, visible, connecting similar minded people across slavic regions of eastern europe, including russia. but that change when the conflict started off and it's more the more if the west respects democracy and pluralism views, they have to respect our views. but to get the political future,

we would need to show people we can be competent leaders. we need to gather light minded thinkers, qualified and educated people. if we manage that, we will have a political future and political strength. experts say the fall writing ukraine has its origins in football, hooliganism, poverty, and a country that, along with many other post, soviet states has struggled with political corruption. the russian ukrainian border didn't really exist for the move and the russian far right. and the ukrainian far right moved in the same circles and then when the war came, some of them chose one side and some of them chose the other. and the fact is that the connections are still very much there in some parts. and it's almost certain that there are russian agents of some sort within these movements. for i call leaders say they've been overwhelmed by people wanting to join since the crises between ukraine and russia has escalated that as nato countries throw their weight behind ukraine,

they should have to be aware of what this conflict is creating on both sides chance drop it al jazeera car kid, eastern new grain. ok, let's look ahead to the german chances trip to moscow where energy is expected to be high. on the agenda, germany gets more than half its gas supplies from russia. and that dependency is set to increase if the german government gives its final approval to a russian own gas pipeline. the nord stream to has been at the center of a disagreement between the u. s. and germany. it's owned by russia state bank energy giant gas prom is expected to operate from western siberia to germany. the $11000000000.00 project was finished in september and could potentially supply energy to $26000000.00 german homes. but the u. s. insists those plans won't move forward if russia invades ukraine. washington sees the pipeline as away from moscow to increase its leverage in europe like gas prices have been soaring. ukraine and poland to voice their opposition to gnawed stream to it's also put washington in

a difficult position with some of the european allies. and there have been some divisions within germany's new coalition government, roughly a loss, as the coordinator for the pan european data projects of the european council on foreign relations. he explains now why the project is creating wider security concerns of a long time german government and the medical not want to have come to the washington where the purity private sector project after political or geopolitical dimension of the project. whereas at the same time, a call from the criminal point of view, this was very much a committee on it was supposed to circumvent ukraine as a transit can country. am in order to gain leverage a lucky f. and to develop a pressure point in the center of europe in germany, men as we see now, the question of rising energy prices in germany and across europe raise some questions for the product of german government. but i think the brought up

political situation in europe. the security situation, you know, quite obvious challenge from russia not only through the security and territory integrity of ukraine, but to the broader europe insecurity, auto. i'm sure res or germany, quite serious questions and no one expects that that term you will keep the pipeline on 9 should be every record tech entity prints, but it would be difficult and that would be incentive for russia during campaign and ukraine to attack ukrainian gas infrastructure and then raise the question for germany, want to keep trying to close, bent half energy prices rise and people clamoring in the cold or do you we open up to and so there are, there are pressure points that edgy relations. but go beyond this. certainly in russian, german relations that the kremlin is quite an exploiting leverage opposition passes into his ears say they will unites against president case said after he
