4:07 pm
a number of challenges. part of that is restoring electricity to her son has been without electricity and the major electricity provider here says it could take up to 30 days to restore that the other problem, the face, our minds. now the emergency service that deal with the bose i've said that they've dealt with just on the 2000 of those so far and many towns and villages. even those that have been liberated a month ago, there are still signs up warning people of minds and wanting them to stick to the main roads. now going into course on safety, that would be another challenge that they face. and as you mentioned, is the damage to the bridges and also the dam for the up river. now the ukrainians have named the russians without damage and the rest of them, the ukraine is that that will pose amaze, major problem for the ukrainians and major risk. now we've heard from one of the regional hassan regional counsel, member sick, a guy. now what he has advised this caution. he says that it's possible that some russian soldiers remained, that they should stay military uniforms and change into the brilliant clothing. but
4:08 pm
he's urging caution, but right now in the mood in ukraine, the morality type. this is a major victory for them and seen as a major defeat for russia. what's next? the ukraine acid? will the still face a number of challenges in terms of militarily, although the russian troops return to the east side of the river, the still occupy a considerable amount of territory night. if you look to the east of done by the russians are still pushing to try to take turns, especially around buck, mood and solid. done. i've spoken to soldiers stay on the front line. and one of them was, they said it was held that the fighting is really intense as russian troops still try to push forward. so although russia has had defeated this still trying to take territory in the east, because that is good for them politically. it shows that they're still advancing, and we still see that the russians are able, even from the east side of the river to target ukrainian troops in carson and the
4:09 pm
rest of the country. i said, beg, reporting from creevy ryan central ukraine, thank you very much. joining us now from the t 20 in bali is ukrainian empty, cure roodick kara, when the russian offensive began in february and they started taking as much land as they did, including her son. did you think that her san city would fall back to ukraine? be honest, yes i did. in our, during this war, we have found that so many impossible things happened just because we worked hard on them. and because we knew that we cannot lose at the very beginning, nobody believed that we will stand for more than 2 or 3 days. then nobody believes that we will get their candidacy to european union. that nobody believed that we are capable of counter offense. and nobody believed that we'll take care some back . but what is the most important is that we believed it. and right now,
4:10 pm
we believe for so many more things to happen for us to liberate all our territories for ukraine to join nato, for russia to be kicked, to all the united nations. and for many, many more thinks that will allow all the fast leave in peace and prosperity. should ukraine use this military success to perhaps start negotiations with russia? all negotiations and peace talks also down to one simple question. who or what in the world would ensure that russia would not greg they are part of the deal. we have been having rush as a neighbor for a very long time and we know one thing. you cannot trust them. they always break their word. and to war and ukraine started not on february 24th, but 8 years ago. so we know what rush award is worth, and we are not going to be trusting you. this is why we will need security
4:11 pm
guarantees from organizations all the there of the world. but right now, in 9 months, i have not seen anybody willing to be this security guarantor. and you know why? because the know everybody knows the trash will break their work. but right now, seeing how much we paying for this war with our lives, with the future for with children. there is one thing that we need to do for them. for the next generation, we need to ensure that they will not have to continue to fight this war, that this one will end on our generation. and for that, we need to make sure the trash of attack again. so what now for ukraine, i mean short term, medium term, because this is a major success, no doubt about it, but it's still just one battle in this war. while the war is won by and multiple victors in different battles. and this is what we're going to do, continue pushing till the winter hits, than will survive the winter. and then we could continue liberating our country and
4:12 pm
restoring our sovereignty. we did not start this one. what we are doing right now we are defending against russian troops. and what we want is to restore the sovereignty from the country as it was according to international law. so this is what we're going to do. do you want to see ukraine retake crimea? i asked this because we know russia react in a very hostile manner. with anything that is crimea connected during mia is ukraine. it has been ukraine since 1991. it was illegally and next and not accepted by all democratic countries. so we of course want to restore our sovereignty and return crimea to ukraine. alright. ukrainian, n p q, we're rooting. thank you very much for joining us here on al jazeera. thank you and go to the ukraine. or ukraine has joined a summit of southeast asian leaders for the 1st time. it's foreign minister urged

4:14 pm
of rural based order to rule based order and the into threats to the rule of law. and tony chang has more from the summits income pen. well, we saw joe biden talking about the pacific and asked him being central to to us pants not just economically, but in security terms as well. he said he was committed to spending $850000000.00 us dollars in this region in 2023. so i think that he's the message he was bring here was that it's not just moral support. there is substantial economic support as well. the problem is, of course, that china is just around the corner. it is a massive economic superpower. if you can see the twinkling lights behind me, of the skyscrapers, most of these have been funded with chinese investment. and that's true for a lot of countries within the in grouping. i think the point the americans are trying to make is that america is here. it's here to stay. it's going to be
4:15 pm
consistent. and what we've seen over the last couple of years, particularly with the cova shutdowns, is that a lot of chinese investment has paid off. a lot of the buildings here are actually empty because the chinese investors have returned to china. one of the chinese tourism that was here has no longer returned. it won't be for the foreseeable future with chinese 0 coven policy. and i think that's where the americans a trying to leverage themselves in. they have done this in the past during barack obama presidency. he came to us and he promised the same thing, but he didn't back it up and i think certainly does a slightly skeptical, but the message from joe biden today was definitely the united states is betting on this region. and it's here to stay plenty morehead on the news hour, including stopping the money go round, wide gun is clamping down on black market currency traders. i'm entry simmons reporting from russia inside a resort city of london decades ago because of conflicts. there are now control

assistant professor and economic lawyer, utrecht university and author of the book block chain, an anti trusted decentralization formula. he joins us now from amsterdam. people thank you for being with us. by the way, apologies i'm going to have to ask you to come down to my level, because i'm one of the many people who still, you know, struggle to wrap their brains around crypto can see. let's start here. what went wrong with f t x? why did this happen? all right, so, so what we talk about here are 2 companies, se, eggs and biden's, but they are companies not crypto project with ceos and chair orders. and those 2 companies are in the business of what we call the crypto exchange. that basically a service here, a company that allows you to exchange fees currencies into crypto currencies, back and forth. now what happened in that case is that earlier this month it was revealed stats, f t x may not have that he quit
4:40 pm
t. that is necessary for the company to the volume and the finances. after which finance announced us they will acquire f t x as a way to protect all of the users both as indeed you mentioned the day after buying . and actually we throw from the deal which caused a crash. and now is indeed a funding for, for bankruptcy. what is there a larger lesson for crypto currencies? i mean, is this just one company, f t x being badly mismanaged or they're structural weaknesses here. that could be fall under a crypto currencies. so there are several views on that. some people are saying that it's actually a fair warning that if you rely on centralized form of business such as companies, you put yourself at the risk that indeed a c o or eventually say orders may manage the money in a way that is not good for you as opposed to the dream of decentralization, right where he have not to trust a single person. so you could see that story as,
4:41 pm
as a push towards more decentralization. but for so reasons, i think it's not likely to happen because it might be that as a centralized firm, you may actually provide your customers with a good user experience. and with the product that is, that is fast and you may change the product. so i think the lessons is that the, you going to see regulations, there are talks in europe as i speak. that's on top of all the finance regulations that we have pretty much exist. all of the welto that we may want to regulate crypto exchanges, and i'm convinced that the same idea will spread all over the world. so that's something that you're going to see as for the dynamics here, you can make a point that is good for buying and vitamins is the, the leading crypto exchange, rice more than 20000000000 us the last year. number one in terms of market share. but 67 percent of the market. if f t x is going bankrupt,
4:42 pm
it was the 4th leading exchange. it's good for them, but it also sent a signal again that centralized exchanges might be problematic. so it's incredibly complex and fascinating to watch. hundreds of millions of dollars were withdrawn at the last minute just of f t x with declaring bankruptcy. do you think this foul play there? well it's, it's, it's really hard to know. so what, what we know for now and, and last night, a hack, apparently, a lot of people to, to take some more money out of it's what we know is that the in the united states, the securities exchange commission, the c f t c, the department of justice are currently investigating f t x. now, for good reasons. i do wonder if some of those agencies should also investigate violence. because indeed, when biden's announced that they will re throw from f t x and sell old took the cheap price. this was the reason why se x went bankrupt now biden's will say that they don't. so for good reasons,
4:43 pm
because fears of liquidity crisis and so on and so forth. but we also know that violence, and this was public, put on twitter, actually violence decided to act that way because they disliked a post by f t x where they kind of criticized people in the decentralized finance. so it might be that there is an anti competitive, intense meaning a intention by balance to take f t, it's down, in which case this could also amount to violation of antitrust. so it's very uncertain, but i think it's also uncertain what's gonna happen to balance tea bullshit, but i can't thank you enough for breaking all of that down for us to ship those from trick utrecht university in the netherlands. thank you so much. thank you so much. and twitter is on the verge of bankruptcy. the social media company's new owner. ellen musk has warned employees of tough times ahead. billionaire made the comments in his 1st math call to staff. he says that twitter needs to boost

4:46 pm
a more subscription base model also goes out the window and not incense because users don't feel like they confronting the site while they may want to watch it. boom. they don't necessarily engage with it. the reality is that big companies like switzer and i've spoken to many, both current and former employees and also some current twitter employees that very quickly will be for me to please because i deeply unhappy about the way that this business is run you previously twitter and many other big tech companies would try dumb things, but the differences they were tried dumb things, enclose environments, they would try in testing, they would try in a way, not every use a source. and what's happening is that we're seeing a huge experiment happening in real time because he's cut back so significantly on stuff 50 percent of the company left just last week. it has a huge impact on brand integrity. and when you are already someone who is
