in, in, inside, near map, with the military arresting people for their full of beliefs. ah, my law, no that one documentary is that nice. i'm was guy on out there. ah, ukrainian president lottery zalinski says a war with russia will have consequences for the whole world. becomes after russian president vladimir putin announced successful nuclear exercises involving ballistic and cruise missiles. ah ha ha ha robin watching out there alive. my headquarters here in doha. also coming up. nigeria is upgrading its irrigation projects for the 1st time in decades. but many

farmers aren't happy about the changes and the emergency measures in chile, that mean migrants are being turned away or expelled. ah, good have you, are this welcome to the program? the ukranian president has wall that a war with russia will have global consequences. it comes at a time with soaring tension between moscow, ukraine and the west. bottom is zalinski travel to germany for the music security conference, and he says his country's committed to peace. but the global security infrastructure is failing them, showed why did benjamin's to lead debility in the my, to roy v. ne sean, there's no such thing as, it's not my war on the 21st century, the annexation and crimea, and the warrant on bass as a blow to the whole world. this is not about war and ukraine. this is about to warn europe. i mentioned this in 201920202021. or the will be able to hear me in

2022. that says russia says president vladimir putin, his overseeing strategic nuclear exercises. the kremlin says it's war ships and submarines of successfully low type of solving weapons and cruise missiles during the drills. russian back separatists lead as an eastern ukraine of all, did a full military mobilize asian base fillings in dumbass region are being evacuated to russia. shelling intensifies between separatists and ukrainian government forces . you create new me says one soldier has been killed. well, let's go straight over to our diplomats get it. james vase who's at the munich security conference. and james, it has to be said, the president zalinski managed to articulate exactly where he was coming from and focus on the concerns very much to a captive audience. yeah, absolutely. i think the main thing that's going to be the takeaway of the day actually is not what he said, although that's important. not come to in

a moment. it's the fact he was here. he was warned by senior us officials not to make the journey that the threat to his country was too great. and yet he travelled on the left here about an hour ago to go back to ukraine. but he travelled here to munich. and i think that in itself was a show of defiance to president putin. i am not scared. my people are not scared. i don't think there was certainly the on the position of russia and it's threats. he had the same position as, as the rest of the nato alliance. but there were some differences of opinion there on the issue of sanctions. for example, he said that it's all very well than talking about these unprecedented sanctions. but what sanctions all are there that are worth anything to him? if there's already been an invasion, he said the sanctions need to be there to prevent an invasion. and we'd like not necessarily the sanctions in place, but an announcement of these new strongest sanctions. exactly what they all to take

place as soon as possible. also on the whole public nature of the intelligence and president biden saying that a war could start any moment in the present positions already made the decision. president lensky was clear that really he can. he can't work with the situation in terms of explaining to his public that a war any day could start tomorrow. ms. rivers or local coolant, us euros. amine, we're not really living in delusion. we understand what can happen tomorrow, but maybe the comparison i will make is not good. but just putting ourselves in coffins and waiting for foreign soldiers to come in is not something we're prepared to do. we're not going to advance on any one, but we stand ready to respond to everything. we cannot remain passive there. there are some pretty high profile dignitaries that took to the podium on saturday. what's your sort of assessment of what was said? and how it was said well,

i think one interesting one was the chinese state counselor in foreign minister y e, because you know how close china and russia. but he basically said that, that the territorial integrity and sovereignty of every nation needed to be respected. and that included ukraine, which i think is an important message to russia from one that close to stylize and the other take to give you is about the western allies, nato, and the u. that being lead very much by president biden. and they all are in what they're saying on the same page, i would say the unity of nato is stronger in terms of what they're saying, this being in any time in recent years. certainly any time during the trump administration. and i would also say, compared with 2014 and with the annexation of crimea, that how that happened in a very different way. it was much more stun the test. i think of that unity will

come not just with the words now, but if president biden is right, and there is this invasion of ukraine, the test will be the action. we've heard about these unprecedented sanctions. but when i press the e u commission president on exactly what's going to be in them, and i asked her about some of the specifics. she said, well, everything's on the table, but it's still to be finalized. and i think that's that, that's the question. when the actually comes to action, will that be the same level of unity for the latest and so much change by diplomatic added to their immediate. that's called over to kevin. our andrew simmons is standing by. and andrew, the americans were well advising the ukranian president. not to go and he did turn up. but how is that gone down in kiev? well, that the general consensus here is that there is reassurance by the president actually

traveling overseas at a critical time for the country. he's on his way back now. he made the points after his speech, which was what was gross, quite critical of, of the international community in how way, how actually perceive the situation in ukraine. and really of he is in a stage know where he is campaigning, harder than ever, with the international community for more support that has been a lot of concern about actions a by the breakaway republics in the southeast. the fighting, there has intensified at some points and really at we're getting now into a situation where a lot of people are seeing this is a foreigner to something a lot worse and not necessarily an overall invasion of the country. of a lot of ministers feel that this is the weak point. this is the possible flash point for, for the, the,

what some degree describe as inevitable consequences of a even larger war. and there is right now, and that is an 8 year war in the southeast with 14000 debt of coal, say the focus of the past few weeks has been the southeast of ukraine ongoing clashes there. we have charles of calls, charl, stratford, reporting for us in the region, but very difficult to verify all the claims and counter accusations being made by both sides. that's right. i mean the call for people to actually evacuate some leave for russia. it was made by the leader of the does net sca republic and the method data on the video was 2 days. so just it was 2 days old. not suggestive. actually verify that it was 2 days old. that's an example . many of many examples of, of where that has been a trickery used to convince the public of situation that doesn't necessarily exist

. furthermore, we're hearing now from the intelligence services here. that's an all and 10 surveillance drone, which is russian made. and it's russian technology used to identify military targets has been over ukraine territory. and this is, recent reports are now to ukrainian soldiers debt. that's an update and for injured and the sharing, although it sporadic is persistent and quite heavy with long range artillery being used. so a disturbing situation that isn't going away under 7 care for thank you for the update. as i mentioned, charl stratford is in the region. he's in a village in easton ukraine, near the front lines. my. he says there is a significant military presence among civilians. we've been speaking to villages, it's a day they describing the shelling overnight or at least a couple of the villages that we speak with you saying that was a heavy shilling they'd experienced or heard since the end of all melinda,

or the official end of hostilities back in 2015 when that failed piece initiative and cease fire was signed in mid. what's important and as you can see behind me now also to recognize is there's a lot of military in villages like these in and amongst the civilians and interesting. we had a conversation with a ukrainian soldier in a shop or about half an hour ago am. and he was debating with the shop owner and even he is concerned about the civilian population. here. he'd almost a shop owner whether in fact the local authorities had approached the civilians here for any potential evacuation plan here. nothing on on, on that note. we also asked him personally whether he thought, in fact, that this was just bluster from the russian back separatists from russians. with this increase shelling that we've been talking about, whether frankly was bluster or whether he thought there was going to be some sort of move. his answer was very much

a definitive. yes. he said that the weapons that were being used by the separatists were of a heavier caliber. he also acknowledged that the ukrainian army in this area have also moved in larger amounts of weapons in recent weeks. since our christian is only russian academy of science, as he says, of nato wanted to resolve the situation, it will push ukraine to follow the minsk agreement. this is the de game with call blue russian ring and for your brain, for the west to stop north 3, a ration, but not too safe and not to keep the life of the people in venice or guns. the problem is the status quo is an interest if you green for your green and for the west. this is extremely important to keep this unstable unclear situation. we are no status, no perspective for a solution, just to keep it for any comfort for them and convenient situation to raise tension

in order to stop russia to blame russia to just to change, to change mind of western people. ok, there is another war in ukraine that the best option is the implementation means agreement. we've participation france, germany, you, great in russia. but i don't know where the rest and the want to do these. and unfortunately, and this is the only way, otherwise we will see the same level of tension, probably higher or lower, but without usual of the missing will last problem with interest of russia, but not an interest on your grade. we will see this is the time it will be stable, unstable tension on the border between russia and ukraine, and any other situation at my start with the war because it will be an interesting to recreate not in russia. well, stella had here on al jazeera drug debts in argentina. more than 20 years. is dia
