we support the need to keep diplomatic channels with russia open. ukraine is not going to launch military offensive, neither in the bus nor in creamier, nor anywhere else. the green season alternative to peaceful resolution of the ongoing conflict. more than a 100000 russian trips or mass ukraine's border, sparking concern from the usaa did hear a p and allies that russia will make some sort of invasion within weeks. and we continue to engage in non stop diplomacy and to de escalate 10 to 1010 devil to improve security or for allies and partners for all of you, for that matter. but with rushes continuing to build up its forces around ukraine. we are ready, no matter what happens after the un security council meeting. russia responded in

writing to a us proposal aimed at d escalating the ukraine crisis. more high level diplomacy is expected this week, even though talks of so far field to ease tensions. uri with shadow without moscow corresponded. yuri, is there a diplomatic way of solving this crisis? i think everybody hope so, ben and t, as there are plenty of negotiations going on at different levels at the moment. as for the security council meeting yesterday, russia has criticized the decision to hold it using 1st of all, the white house of unacceptable interference in russia's internal affairs and calling the media at the meeting. a p. r. stand for the u. s. government. at the same time, moscow has repeatedly emphasized that it doesn't want a military solution, but a diplomatic one. so on the one hand, moscow says, hey, let's talk. on the other hand, i'm not to that way. however,

i do think that the effect that the highest you and body has tried to deal with the issue as at least as symbolic effect on the kremlin. also at the same time, russia is putting forward demands, it knows the west really just can't deliver on. what's moscow solution to this then? while i think moscow maintains that all russia is doing is moving as a troops within its own territory, enter that russia. it has never, or has never intended to attack your grain as kremlin also complained that the international community isn't bothering to learn about the reason of the escalation in the tensions between the west and russia. and from the russian point of view, been as there is just one reason for that. and that is that, that the nato has come to close, rushes, bought us. however, the grammar has consistently ruled out a military solution. today, later, a rush us for a minister lover off and your secretary or of state of lincoln are going to discuss

the issue on thorn or the earth, russian diplomatic, diplomatic efforts yielded nor result when they both spoke earlier. this month we'll see are what will be the result of today's talk later. what about these new sanctions? the washington and london are threatening against wealthy russian oligarchs. is that something that the could sway moscow in any way? well, i think it's hard to say whether the new sanctions will actually work or reportedly these new sanctions. i bought the money and let's call them financial possibilities over the retraction. oligarchs, specifically, in the u. k. ah, russians have been buying property in london for years. are bringing a lot of money into the country into the united kingdom. are russians are apparently the 2nd largest group after people from the united arab emirates who buy property in london. and the problem is that nobody knows exactly where their money comes from. but if it's doubtful

a whether this kind of sanction can punish the russian state, or if all this money no longer is invested in the u. k, by the stays in russia because of the sanctions. then the sanctions would probably punishes the oligarchy, but benefit the russian states rather than harm it, given this money will be spent within russia. and what about the russian people household is going down with them? well, a russians have become skeptical about nato, and many things that nato and not the only the ship is to blame for the current escalation intentions with the best. for example, because nate wants to send more troops to the east, but a war with ukraine would be deeply unpopular at home and to most people consider the whole discussion about it. totally exaggerated as there isn't a sense of in a minute to war. he and moscow and to nobody in this country can or wants to believe that the russians would kill ukrainians. why many people i have,

i hope many people i have spoken to a brother, nation. exactly. a lot of them have relatives there and the other way around. you're a great to talk to you. thank you very much for the analysis. now round up of some other stories making world news today. in ecuador, at least 11 people is dead off the record flooding to get a massive landslide buildings and cars in the capitol kito, with the way by tons of water on sunday. heavy rains have pounded the country since october. scientists, a global warming is a major contributing factor in mexico. another journalist has been shot dead while working in the western state of the channel. the man was reporting on local government corruption. it's the 4th such killing in less than a month. reporters without borders, says mexico is the most dangerous country for journalists. a federal judge in the us state of georgia has rejected a plea deal for 2 of the 3 men convicted of killing of mud ovary agreement would
