invade. in the next few days, a level above and of shore or as a me them, when we stand ready to respond to everything, we cannot remain passivity. how can you live in a state where you are told on a daily basis, that war will happen with that to morrow? the advance will happen. it means crushing national currency, money being taken out, businesses closing. can you live in that kind of countries and can you have stability in that kind of country? me know that he also questioned why the announcement of the details of western sanctions should only come off to any invasion. but you would take either. we don't need your sanctions after the bombardment after our country has been fired. after we have no borders. after we have no economy, one part of our country will be occupied. why would we need sanctions then? each us from nato and you lead as a threatening, unprecedented sweeping sanctions on russia. but the details are not finalized. i asked the europe in commission president of on the line about possible measures

such as stopping e u energy imports, and russia being excluded from the swift banking system. the final decision will be taken in case that russia is beginning a war against ukraine and the military of aggression against ukraine. and then it's going to be a political decision by the european council that is taken up the preparation for the preparation. everything is on the table where the lead is not just talking about sanctions, russia might face, but also what a full scale war might look like. it will be around us and where does that also for many, many lives and to have something like this in europe. it's hard to imagine, but we are closer to that. now don't be in any time since day at least in the cold war because i never seen such a concentration of troops and forces on such or read this with all. busy the

different elements in place, everything from of course, the high end weapon system, so to feel hospitals, so to logistics, to come on the control. so russia on the launch and attack with hardly any warning time. there's remarkable unity in the words from e, u, a. nato members here, but if his president biden predicts as an invasion soon, will that unity persist when time for them to take action? james bayes al jazeera munich, are russia back to separatist leaders in east ukraine, say civilians and the don bass region are being evacuated to russia as shelling intensifies, char strafford has been speaking to people near the front line. there are hundreds of villages like these along the front line on the ukrainian controlled side and watch increasingly worrying the amount of civilians that are still here. as we understand this, evacuation continues in the separatist control areas or is increasingly wiring also

. is that in villages like these, there are also a lot of ukrainian military and we've been speaking to some of the civilians here about their fears were soldiers staying and what were once private homes military vehicles passed by the talia runs the village shop. she has little hope, a peaceful solution to the crisis can be found. moser was him, did this. the military's been here for 8 years, but we all feel like target. yes. of course the military in the village makes the risk greater. i'm afraid to even think about an evacuation. if i would have to leave my home suddenly with a bag of documents posted not attending the security conference in munich, suggest he doesn't want a peaceful solution. most of the families of those buried in the graveyard of left the village. people tell us the shelling in the area and the last couple of days

has been the worst in years. i've been yellow so it's very frightening. i felt the fear rising up 3 me when the shelling of started with us. we been here since the beginning of the war. but where can we go and who can help us? we had about the evacuation on the other side and it's not a good sign. there is no good that will come out of this is mainly the elderly left here. now, they say the shilling has been worse at night. people in villages like this one close to the front line are afraid they are aware of what the russian back separatists on their side of the front line of now calling a mass evacuation of civilians are they are asking what about our safety to char stratford, al jazeera, eastern ukraine. now away from the shelling and the possibility of a wide, a conflict. there is an information ward that is playing out of eastern ukraine. johnny start talk more about this is maria of deborah research director at the european expert association. she joins us from

a hard cave in ukraine. thanks so much for being with us. so talk to us, 1st of all, about some of the, the information that you've been getting from the russian side. and how, how is that being able to verify any of that at all? we have been closely monitoring the russian does information complain since october, when the russian military and built opera started. and we have seen that a major disinformation campaign is now being developed, and the target of the complaint is ukraine and our connections with the allies and the how to be our partner give to you, craig. so what the said is, information is trying to push is a message that ukraine is together with the allies is preparing some kind of provocation and preparing some kind of military offensive operation against

on boss. and for the last 2 days, we see that kind of messages appear in every hour and claim in that ukraine has been done. that kind of aggressive military operation against done boss, which is completely untrue because our a few shells made already numerous statements saying that ukraine is fully obliged with the means agreements. and we do not plan any kind of offensive operation, nor shall. and on the don boss. so that is why we rarely see that russia and the russia back rock this and the 3rd sort of dunbar in the occupied territories. i preparing a pro occasion and then they will give them ground to accuse ukraine and to ask for some kind of military support from russia, which we already are now also here,

because russia stayed duma deputy is the members of the parliament, are now starting to speak about the needs of volunteers to come to don voss and give how of to the people there because you green army is a lodging. the preparing at tech and from the point of view of the cleaning government, does it feel to you like they are trying to down play the possibility of war? they do not on the counter is they are so the, the, a sion on the top level. and so they are today, they claimed that they had the lam way and from the re brand new military, which is a raj, miss bland, in the major military operation. and besides that, russia today said that ukraine, nan nan selling was on the stove area, stock region,

which is the red, dizzy territory of russia. so any more man that's kind of military operation, local military operation would start there. because already they have accused ukraine of aggression against the occupied territories. and as we mentioned, you are talking to us from car cave in ukraine, which is not far from the russian border where thousands of russian troops are mobilized right now. and this is an area i understand it has a lot of russian speakers as well where you are talk to us a little bit about the atmosphere there right now. exactly. so, so it is particularly me to strong the border with russia. and people are ready to fight, and people feel that if a major escalation happens, they will resist. they are not frightened because what isn't formation in trying to

do is to grade that much, sir, or fanny can, but it doesn't work here because ukraine is already in for 8 years in this state of water. and we have seen that for, for, for all the time and the re, clear to the stand that russia is an aggressor and a $14000.00 ukraine. them citizens were killed in that war. so ukraine, nance and people in harkins, they already know what is it to live in this condition, and we are ready to fight if any major provocation happens. but i myself think that the most probable scenario will be a local military operation in dunbar. and then this, the bill is based on the political situation inside ukraine. good to talk you. thanks very much for being with us. maria davis. thank you. now,
