ah, the way to peace in ukraine is simple. at least according to ukraine's president lensky. addressing the united nations, he laid out of 5 point formula to bring an end to the finding. he didn't mention vladimir putin by name not even once, but he made it very clear. and the only one obstructing his path to peace as the man and the kremlin at the security council to day potent was named over and over again as the soul responsible for a war that has brought indescribable horse to the people of ukraine. the democratic members of the council promised to not let him get away with it, saying there can be no peace without justice article for elation. berlin and this is the day ah,

crime has been committed against you and we demand just punishment. we see the mounting evidence of russian atrocities against it. we cannot, we will not allow president to get away with the collective question, its intention of fermenting. this conflict remains on punishing but the crime of aggression must not go unpunished. the very international order that we have gathered here to uphold is being shredded before our eyes. oh, also on the day women life freedom. a chand echoed in cities across iran, as protests grow over the death of a young woman after being detained by the morality police. here today,

it's about it's about force has never been effective anywhere in the world. and her job should not be a law on ah, to day the un security council met for an extra ordinary session labeled maintenance of peace and security of ukraine. but the reason for the meeting really was that there is no peace in ukraine to be maintained. and was a showdown between the west and russia over a conflict, the likes of which the council was precisely created to avoid. the atmosphere was charged and the russian foreign minister only briefly appeared to give his own skewed vision of things. he missed a scorching condemnation of the atrocities happening at the orders of his boss. the very international order that we have gathered here to uphold, is being shredded before our eyes. we cannot, we will not allow president putin to get away with it. the son of ukraine

sovereignty and territorial integrity is about much more than standing up for one nation's right to choose its own path. fundamental is that writers, it's also about protecting an international order, where no nation can redraw the borders of another by force for 8 years, a cave regime has been conducted. the mill has been conducting a military operation against a peaceful civilian. for 8 months, we were waiting for her for some steps to be taken against impunity in ukraine, and we don't expect anything more from this institution or in a whole range of other international institutions. everything i've said to day simply confirms that the decision to conduct the special, the military operation was inevitable reports a catalogue of cruelty summary executions, sexual violence, thought to them that you made and degrading treatment against civilians and prisoners of war. all these allegations must be sought only investigated, to ensure accountability,

or prior to the 10th security council meeting. ukraine's president voluntary zalinski appeared before the united nations via video link, and he used his speech to demand an international effort to make russia pay a crime has been committed against ukraine and we demand job. and this is the 1st item of all what these formal comprehensive i'd banishment, banishment for the crime of aggression punishment for violation of borders and territorial integrity. not only in new york did vladimir putin's move to escalate the war trigger backlash. there's growing composition to the mobilization at home as well. police have arrested more than 1300 people demonstrating against the call up of reservists rights groups report that some detain protesters have been forced to enlist while in custody. now, many especially young men are seizing what they fear,

could be their last chance to leave the country. making a touchdown in a stumble. just a day after russia announced a military draft, many russian men are jumping on whatever flight stick and find out of moscow. turkey where arriving russian passengers don't require visa for entry is a popular choice. the mobilization issue, one of the reasons why and here. i feel that not really many lots of russians, people want to, to fights and want to be mobilized and want to go to them. so this suit in serbia, where short term russian visitors can also enter visa free. fully packed flights arrived from moscow, as panic, has surged, her demand for one, we flights flights to turkey, serbia, as well as armenian azerbaijan, have entirely sold out reports of a mass exodus. if young men have been downplayed by the kremlin which claims the

situation is exaggerated, but those arriving in serbia say, the fear of conscription, israel seeds are as horrible. so i psyche to be afraid to help war and over such things. so it's hard for everyone. it's a difficult situation at the land border with finland. a long queues rushing cars has lined up to cross finland is now russia's last remaining, you neighbor, that still allows the entry of russian shing and visa holders. but while fin, when prepares to limit or band and tree fresh and taurus and as flights out of moscow become unavailable, it may be now or never for those wanting to avoid the draft. a european commission spokesperson for migration says e u countries need to find a joint approach on considering asylum for russians fleeing their country to avoid

military service. currently you members, states are divided over letting in russian citizens as winters heard finland, which has the longest e u. border with russia has reported an increase an incoming traffic at its border . the baltic states, estonia, latvia and lithuania, as well as poland. i've implemented tougher restrictions, essentially closing their borders to russians, to the south russian vehicles seeking to cross into non e u. member, georgia are reportedly waiting up to 12 hours to cross and i'm now joined by l. yup. when a mar, if he's a former member of the russian parliament and to day lives an exile in ukraine. mister point, marv, thanks for being on the day tonight. are you surprised to see thousands of people trying to leave russia after this mobilization was announced? i'm not surprised at all. it was very much, i guess that this mobility issue will be extremely popular among russians. and

that's why it was, it's on for such a long time to actually announce even when he did the announcement, he announced that it's like a bar show my bill is ation. but in fact of this, the, it's a general ability shows so much my believe it's some of those issues without any significant exemption. it's, it's one of those issues that would affect everyone. and that's what we'll just start seeing on the streets professional seizures. can you elaborate on that a bit? because yesterday it was announced that it would be 300000 reserve is that would be drawn into service, but there has been the number 1000000 floating around. where does that discrepancy come from and why? why is there such, such, such a confused way of communicating what this actually is this 1000000 is

the source in the presidential stuff in moscow. which is, i would say like, i'm old, but that's the person who really just despise us. what's, what's going on? the information i think we that's our trouble this morning to be on the 1st publisher information about them. it was published from the same source in several other media and that went in paragraph from which and said you creve on the mobility issue. that was hebrew. so called for 7 which was not published. so obviously that was a 3, b, it's a to the number of the records. and i think the criminal just trying to down please . and number 1000000 is the number that i personally believe and that that attempt to down play the efforts that are starting now. do you attribute them to an attempt to downplay how bad it is going for russia and ukraine?

to say it is very bad, but obviously for goods which unless it's a buying the dissipation, you know, if he announced the mobilization, that means the situation is bad in terms of how bad it is. you know, it doesn't matter whether it's 300 or 3000000 people. what matters is the reaction of the rational society because just statistically, if it is $300.00, you know, what is the probability that i personally will be dropped. and if it is one mill m round, the probability is 3 times higher. that's obviously makes people chic people being drafted against their well people taking to the street. is that really something that that would impress all that much at this point? is more way to go, you know, the question of being impressed. i think he's very much impressed,

but what ukrainian military has gone so far. it's impressive for luck. but now what, what is the option for him? he needs to claim victory, of course, because if he is not claiming syria, even if it is just the full me, he's the person literary. and i think that he understands this theory and that's why for, for him, you know, he is choosing between 2 evils. and that really doesn't matter what will be the backlash of the rational population. if you just need to win the war or die yourself went into exile 8 years ago. what would be your recommendation from people now in trying to flee the country to not be drafted? into this war i didn't go into exile. i was not allowed to come back to my country, and that's an important difference because a was never willing to free the country. and i think that's right now we need to,

we need to put the fight. i don't want to judge anyone who wants to leave, you know, not every by the fighters, but really, you know, i would love to see my trips state whole. and so and to put up the fight. and that's exactly what i'm doing in the green. i'm organizing every, by there with rational passports to be trained with, to come back to russia and hooked up the fight. all right. i want to talk about something else today. there was a prisoner swap between ukraine and russia, 215, ukrainian, p o w for 55, russian. that's almost for ukrainian soldiers to every russian one. what do you make of that numerical difference? what do you read into it? there was one guy for whom it was done. his name is going to be the chip is which owns relative who happened to be ukranian. and that's

why he agreed to such an exchange. so obviously it's a major b, victoria diploma creek area for president sky. just another one where he was getting you all the heroes of ukraine, back fighters from us, all few people who are really admired by ukraine. so the morale of ukrainian soldiers was originally high. the sure is and how to kick now it's even higher because the understand that the will be care though by the ukrainian states that the korean states would actually protect them while rationalists would not at your were the only person in the russian parliament who voted against annexation of crimea and 2014. how do you feel today about the sham referendums planned this weekend to an ex 4 occupied territories,

and ukraine fit in the 2014. as it turned out was a sham. it was complete, the mutation of democratic procedure was right now there is no limitation on democratic procedure. they would just not something and the objective of this is pretty obvious. they just needs to have a formal grounds. so next the territory. so to be able to deploy draftees, because by law you can drop cheese on somebody else's soil without declaring war and they need to have a legal context to allow them to be deployed in the so called that yes quarter people republics buy it by announcing them the russian to river, this is as simple as that. and the right now they don't care for legitimacy. but when you create your own rule, hard core of russian better, you know,

so people who are for the war, even those guys are against the decision because they understand that the way it's been done, it would never be legitimate. this would never be because nice legitimate x and the whole russian state hold would be below the park by the decisions like this. any appoint alarm. he's a russian opposition politician currently in ukraine. thank you so much for your time tonight. thank ah, arounds, president every race he says he has ordered an investigation into the death of a 22 year old woman who was arrested by the country's morality police or allegedly not wearing her head scarf properly. rice. he also said that there was freedom of expression in iran, but the country's intelligent ministry has issued a warning that anyone attending unauthorized gatherings when face arrest protests

against the killing are spreading across iran images of unrest from a number of cities or reaching the outside world. despite interruptions to internet service reported on thursday, oh, week into the protests, the raining government seems no closer to getting control of the situation. a stream of footage is emerging from cities around the country. protests is confronting the security forces over the death last week of mos armine the chunks. here i'll kill whoever killed my sister. ah, there's no reliable information and how many people have died. but it's clear members of the security forces have been killed as well as protesters. but as the cell model, according to unofficial statistics, unfortunately, 17 people present at the scene unclean when i've lost their lives. what happened over recent days before the relevant officials will announce official figures will

under matter, will take a long pause yet. but as the protest dragon hotline is in the establishment threatening, a tougher response, the revolutionary god has called them a conspiracy of the enemy and deserted judiciary to prosecute any one involved protests in favor of the job of being called for friday. and we can now bring in the alley, thought the land is that a political scientist focuses on iran. he is also the author of the book iran in an emerging new world order. mr. miss are good to see. these are unprecedented protests. would you say this is a watershed moment for iran? well, it certainly is, although we've seen all so dramatic outpourings of popular rage against the entire regime. what with the last few years in the last half a decade, but this time around, this is also quite, you know, quite novel in that, that there are, you see how the presence of the youth of women and of students. but also for

members of the middle and lower classes. so you see, you know, you see a revolt against the regime that has its social base with which is a bit wider than in previous protests. no protests were triggered, of course, by the death of my son. i mean, but it does look like the anger has been brewing on many levels for quite some time doesn't yes, definitely. so this is only only been the spark. so the job issue and the, and the depth and the murder one should say, of mass. i mean, he has been all the dis, park. and which led to people expressing, you know, accumulated no contempt against the republic as a whole. because after all, for over 40 years, the rulers in iran have not been able to provide iranians with dissent,

socio economic and political life. so iran is still a dictatorship. and so the elite is only looking after itself with the bulk of the population of the population being associate, economically deprived, and also suffering from the lack of the most essential human and citizen right. now the regular means of brush over oppression don't seem to work this time around . do they, people are not deterred, even though they're facing violence from the authorities, internet restrictions, intimidation. why do you think that is? well, because 1st of all, the rage is so stark among the people so, so this is an outpouring of against the entirety of the regime and but the means of violence, the means of repression has been the same as in the past. so which is using

definitely violence of why the security forces against the protesters and also shutting down the internet and shutting down essential mobile services, which is currently the case in iran, especially today. and in such circumstances, of course, the regime could again go on a brutal crack down like the one that we saw in november 2019 during the last nationwide on pricing. that saw 1500 people killed in a week's time during an internet shut down. president gracie has announced an investigation into the death of me. what do you expect to come out of? i think those serious observer can say that such a pledges are credible because of the very history of the authorities looking into such cases, there is no rule of law in the wrong. there is no independent judiciary. so the

statement of a c cannot be considered a serious at all, and so i believe that no one considers it serious in the wrong. so thank you very much for that analysis. i'll if i tell on a shot around expert and political scientists, thank you. ah, and international court has upheld the genocide conviction of the last surviving senior member of cambodia as brutal committee rouge regime. q some fun who is 91 years old now served as head of state and the communist square root between 975 and 79. he will continue to serve the remainder of his life in prison after the un back tribunal rejected his appeal against his 2018 conviction. his her is only a 3rd conviction. the court could manage in 16 years, and after having spent $337000000.00 officially called the extraordinary

chambers in the courts of cambodia, it was tasked with trying the crimes of the queer rose. and now it's work is done here to bear witness as a chapter closes on cambodia as violent past survivors of the come, a rouge were among those who attended the final verdict for the last living leda of the regime, the court rejected k o some funds appeal and upheld the 91 year olds conviction for genocide. no easy than to day made by the supreme court chemba a some new milestone border e. c. c. c. for the mission, bring to sir, and just these for do with the multi commodity reaching. and also the see the weakening of the n l e c, c c. after 16 years. it's the last rolling for the tribunal that was set up to

prosecute leaders of the co ruge. but the un backed court has been widely criticized. i think you and wanted so badly for this court to succeed, that they were willing to over look evidence a political interference at long the tribunal has convicted just 3, come a rouge leaders. and at a cost of more than $330000000.00 us dollars. the verdict marks the end of the international push for justice, but many survivors say they will never forgive or forget young blood young. but as i cannot forget, the suffering young mike, my back was wounded balm. i could not forget you because i still feel the pain. well, i will feel the pain until i die, blah blah. the come are rouge grabbed power in 1975. their violent reforms

targeted intellectuals and ethnic minorities and millions of people were sent to labor camps. the regime only lasted for years, but during that time around $2000000.00 cambodians died from starvation, torture, or in mass executions. in what came to be known as the killing fields. cayo some fun served as head of state in the come a rouge regime. jo, ma'am, no money will not forgive k, you some fun allow you. if we forgive him, the younger generation will follow him again. the tribunals final rolling has brought some closure for survivors. but with so few commercial aid is facing justice. it's a small comfort for a country still scarred by genocide. ah, finally to night, the icon in the hollywood sign in los angeles is getting
