those military junta is himself ousted in a military coup army rebels. and now they have overthrown paul and lead amoeba. but new reports have gotten fire in the capital suggest the crisis is not over. ah, i'm an you keeps mccann and thanks so much for joining us. the russian defense ministry says it has pulled out its troops from b, strategically important town of lyman and easton ukraine, and keith says its soldiers have now entered the city. lyman is in the done yet region, one of 4 that russian president vladimir putin, for credit, proclaimed to be part of russia on friday. the recapture of lyman by ukrainian troops. his paws have a wider counter offensive that has seen ukraine retake significant amounts of territory in the east. and carson conley joins us now from the ukrainian

capital. keith nick, moscow says its troops were withdrawn from best key ukrainian town. what does this mean for ukraine's continued advance against russia? well, i mean, that is putting a very brave face on it and did that song that moscow had a due time and time again in recent weeks and months tried explain away his defeats on the battlefield. that seems like a lot of russian soldiers lost their lives trying to get out on a road that was within me, a range of ukrainian artillery. this is crucial because this is basically the north western entry point to don bas region. it is not a far away from that he is likely to chance and am it listed as chance and am that whole region that was so crucial this summer? this is where it rushes spent and you're basically months trying to get the cities . lots of lives were lost, lots of tech was loss. and now you cranes when striking distance of the cities and

of c, it's important in terms of the optics. the symbolism just a day after vladimir putin annexed these regions and said that russia was here to stay, that russia would never leave these territories ukraine, proving that it is able to roll back those russian positions. nick were getting reports of another attack on a civilian evacuation, convoy and you tried what more can tell you, can you tell us about that one? well that is not very far away from eliminates on the eastern part of the hurricane region is t of could parents and it seems like now based on the most recent reports from the green officials are more than 20 people lost their lives. more than half those are believed to be women and children, and we've seen pretty awful images of cars. races shot up some burnt out, the cranes the same that they were shot at from very close range. and as we understand these are civilians trying to get out who are living in so called gray zone. so basically between the ukrainian and the russian front lines, this is

a problem that we've had, tom tom again where people lose internet access, phone connection and basically a cut off from information don't know how to get out and often leave getting out too late, basically till they can hear the shooting around them and then and up a very danger situations like this of watching. it seems like this is not gonna be the last time we saw like this. next, thanks so much. that's nick connelly reporting from keith. and i'm very pleased to welcome alexander, my tough ski. he's an author, has written about the origins and strategic behavior of regimes life. vladimir putin is also an assistant professor at the u. s. naval postgraduate school. i should add that his views here don't represent those of the u. s. government. he joins us from california. dr. metachesky, welcome to t w. russian forces have pulled out of the strategically important ukrainian town of lyman watts. well, president putin's response be to this set back, given that his troops are now being pushed out of what he is calling russian territory. thank you for having the yes,

this is an unprecedented situation. and we could say that the rushes losing the war beyond anyone's wireless expectations. just a student announced the annexation yesterday. some 5000 of his troops were being some surrounded in the area of lyman. and lot of people may, will be the 1st leader in history to attempt an annexation, while his armies retreating from the battlefield. and also the annexation is trying to antics territory that the russian military has, does not hold and is never held. so it's unprecedented situation. it is not clear what they will do and the motivation for the annexation and the 1st place was primarily domestic. so really to conquer by decree, what the kremlin could not confront a battlefield. so the criminal had to appeases nationalist score supporters and also provide justification for the mobile ization that is done to protect russian territory. because this wasn't going well with the population as you might imagine

. so what can gained from these annexations is purely an internal sort of p r exercise is about right to say yes, more or less. so basically it was a big show. i was a big rally and a show in moscow in and around the kremlin and do much actually really on the battlefield. the only kind addition is that it did threaten ukraine in the west eyes. the situation on the ground is not going well for russia. they're really creating this very unprecedented situation in terms of the impact. so this is the greatest challenge to international order since world war 2, because it's violating the principle, the larger countries are not going to be able to grab territory of smaller countries and what the pigeons threats are doing. it's also not just to conquer, but actually to protect those conquests with nuclear weapons. so success for this scheme is really invitation, not just for putin but also other potential aggressors, to obtain nuclear weapons and to try to,

to repeat that situation. could one say that the annexation of these regions has now given person a reason to declare job done, and could that may, can negotiated settlement more likely at all? yes, that's interesting. again, i have to remind you of the stakes in terms of negotiations. we're definitely some time off the way from an end to this conflict, but the annexation actually made it harder for the international community to accept anything other than a complete the restoration of ukraine's thoroughly integrity. again, the violation of this principle of vial ability of national borders and no national conquest, and our annexations makes it really hard to come up with a formalized speech deal here in terms of domestically it will be a very hard so really beautiful is stuck between these very divergent constituencies with divergence and interest. so one hand has the nationalist which have become his core constituents and they're really pushing for

a full in invasion. and on the other hand, you have the general population, which really doesn't want to participate in. this is really torn, it will be a very difficult solution. whatever he pursues there, alexander natal sky, will have to leave it that. but thanks so much for your analysis. thank you. now the head of the african union has condemned a military clue and bikini faso. amid reports of gunfire in the capitol wagon to give a group of soldiers overthrew poor little glade, amoeba, an officer who himself took over the west african nation. in january, the newly declared leda and captain, equal to him toggle. they appeared on friday on state television to announce the crew. the african union has called it an unconstitutional change of government, government, army officers, address the nation, the national television broadcast, and the doubts over who's now in charge. the military leaders had overthrown their own lieutenant turned president,
