[000:00:00;00] already another new topic of the beginning, the usa announced a new aid package in ukraine, 350 million dollars, it should be harm missiles and river boats, river boats are reliably deploying what well, it is possible. a counteroffensive like this will also happen in the southern directions, it is important, uh, thank you for being with us stay express well, literally in a few seconds to your attention my colleagues from the ukrainian service of bbc news will present this day in their presentation let's watch together good evening we from ukraine welcome you on the air bbc news ukraine in the studio

working olga palamaryuk and here's what we're talking about today, putin's meeting with sisinpin, will it bring a breakthrough in russia's war against ukraine , members of the synod of the ukrainian orthodox church came to the president's office today , did he finish the 20-year war in iraq, were there weapons of mass destruction and how british intelligence failed chinese president xi jinping flew to moscow today, this is the first visit of a chinese leader to russia, first the invasion of ukraine to meet the chinese leader, putin did not come, they met in the kremlin also held an informal meeting there. putin first of all said that he was pleased to personally congratulate zinki on his re-election to the post of president of the people's republic of china, and then they talked about ukraine in particular. putin said that he had carefully studied china's plan for the ukrainian settlement. he said that

beijing's plan can be discussed because russia always is open to the negotiation process well , today's face-to-face conversation with putin is dragging on , the meeting is informal, all the main points of the meetings are negotiations, signing of documents and statements to the media will be tomorrow at the same time, whose visitors recently re-appointed the leader of china for an unprecedented third term, who seeks a greater role for us on the world stage. i have raised hopes in some circles for a breakthrough in ending the war in ukraine. a few weeks ago , the chinese ministry of foreign affairs published the so-called peace plan with its ideas for settling the war between russia and ukraine the main demands are the cessation of hostilities and the resumption of peace negotiations, at the same time as putin's fake-ne-shel times came out with his plans for this visit, they say he hopes that china can promise

material support to the kremlin to help the russian military, not about the expectations of this visit, its possible consequences, and let's talk together with the specialist , the chief consultant of the national institute of strategic studies, alina hrytsenko, mrs. alina. the court issued a warrant for putin's arrest, many experts wondered whether they would fly to moscow after that , a few days pass and this is what happens. and you had thoughts that this visit was in question and about what shows the decision not to cancel it. good evening. well, the fact is that this visit was planned for many months in china , the bureaucracy is very complicated, therefore the visit was planned starting from low-ranking diplomats , ending with mr. ivan, and who was recently in moscow, therefore, unfortunately, unfortunately, the visit has to be canceled fortunately for china or russia, there was no opportunity because a lot of work was done and it just so happened that this

warrant was issued just before the visit , so i had no doubt that the visit would not be canceled with intimate will still fly will fly to moscow plus, besides, it does not cause any dissonance in china because china is a country that did not sign and ratify the rome statute, therefore, from beijing's point of view, there are no contradictions . of course, today the two presidents are so- so it's an informal meeting, yes, but the main thing will happen tomorrow, what do you personally expect from this visit, and frankly , i don't have any hopes for loud statements or loud agreements, in my opinion, the visit will be very ceremonial and very diplomatic something in the spirit in which the two articles of the russian president and the head of the people's republic of china were written and published this morning, so there were very diplomatic formulations with very

broad strokes about everything and nothing at the same time very standard statements about good relations between the countries that the parties will further develop them in all aspects , including economic, trade, military and technical, so frankly speaking, i think that it is not worth hoping for any loud agreements or statements yes, plus most of the agreements will still not be for the general public , unfortunately we will not learn about them from open sources, that is, if you say that in your opinion nothing concrete will happen , then the question arises. show a-a to a certain extent the fact is that in recent months china has been criticized a lot for the fact that china, which claims to be a global player of a global state on a level with the united states of america

, behaves quite irresponsibly getting away from the russian-ukrainian war, taking such a rather ambiguous, albeit officially neutral, position and this was one of the reasons why the chinese ministry of foreign affairs itself was motivated to publish this so-called peace plan, although in the original it is not called a peace plan, it is just an official china's position on the political settlement of the conflict china is currently trying to position itself as a peacemaker and as a mediator, and we saw last week that some successes are frankly on this track, in particular last week, we learned that china was a mediator in the process of normalizing relations between iran and saudi arabia, so first of all zimpin went to agree on certain benefits for his country, on economic trade , on certain preferences for chinese companies on the russian energy market, most likely there will be certain agreements on discounts for china on russian energy resources. well, plus, of course, listen to

the position of the russian president, as he dreams of, regarding the solution to the end of the war it is also known that a conversation with president zelensky will soon take place, as if according to preliminary information, so everyone is trying to play mediator mediators, first listen to one side , then the other, and in fact, in this way, to raise the authority and image of china as a state that advocates peace, and they actually emphasize this attention, they say that look , we are the only state in the un security council that neither indirectly nor directly participates in the conflict and offers at least some peace initiatives, even if they are unsuccessful, but that's all well, if everyone calls zelensky, what do you think he can say to him, again, there will be a very diplomatic, somewhat ceremonial discussion, the main purpose of which, in our opinion, should be to convey the position of kyiv to the chinese leadership

directly because for in recent years , ukrainian-chinese relations have unfortunately stagnated for more than two years . china no longer has an ambassador. and while the russian side has been very active on the chinese track, especially in the information space spread a lot of propaganda and stereotypes about ukraine , so the main goal of this conversation between president zelenskyi and xi jinping should be to inform ukraine's position and ukraine's view of this war, its causes, and especially how this war should end, and china emphasizes that it is necessary to resume peace negotiations and it is important to convey to the chinese side the thesis that, unfortunately, peace negotiations are not acceptable today. well, actually, how do you personally evaluate this chinese will the peace plan work? and does it have a future at all? well, first

of all, as i already said, this is not a plan, in fact, it is just the official position of beijing, which it had to publish. well, at least something to publish on the anniversary of the invasion, but there 12 points and all these points, all these theses are what beijing, chinese diplomats promoted and promoted during the entire year of the first full-scale invasion of russia into ukraine. that is, there is actually nothing new there, there are points that cause doubt even on the russian side, but nevertheless the main points about compliance with the norms of international law on the preservation of the territorial integrity of all countries and on the recognition of international borders, that is, accordingly, from the year 1991, on the rejection of nuclear blackmail by the chinese side, for example, this is all that at least is absolutely acceptable for ukraine, and the most important thing is to understand that this is not a road map that china is trying to advance on the international stage. this

is just a vision for those who would like this war to stop, unfortunately for the chinese side , so far the chinese side does not realize that unfortunately, peace negotiations cannot take place, but china at the same time gives the impression that china seems to want to listen to one side and the other, but at the same time does not get involved in this conflict directly , that is, as if you please decide for yourself , sit down at the negotiating table and decide on what terms you are ready to end this conflict , which also has negative consequences for the people's republic of china. and we are simply ready, if there is such a need , to play a constructive role, and under this wording, in fact, such a very, very broad china can mean everything that of course, thank you for the analysis of the conversation. it was alina hrytsenko, the chief consultant of the national institute of strategic studies, thank you. well, the visit of the chinese leader to moscow is one of the many

international media outlets, and how the world audience of the bbc told the muscovite correspondent rosenberg about this meeting, and they had met in person many times before, if i am not mistaken. this is their 40th meeting, but this is the first visit to moscow since the russian invasion of ukraine , and in this way he sends a signal of support to the kremlin. vladimir putin obviously appreciates this very much because things are not going very well for him, both leaders are meeting in person today and their delegations will meet tomorrow, the details of what they are discussing will actually be known later, because both russia and china maintain a certain level of secrecy, but it is known that this is the development of cooperation, the deepening of the partnership between the two countries, and also the war in ukraine, let's see exactly what the city-pin's message will be to vladimir putin, will he encourage the russian leader to make peaceful efforts, or is

this not a beheneffest, that's what they say upakiy the bbc correspondent from china tells us what to expect china today has many reports about jinping's visit to moscow, and readers could even notice in the local press an article by vladimir putin , just as moscow readers saw an article by sizin, both leaders simultaneously published their articles in neighboring countries in their article putin writes that the measure he mentions is losing its influence and compares it with china. putin notes that his government welcomes china's efforts to achieve peace in ukraine, but emphasizes that the negotiations should reflect geopolitical realities are obvious. he means such realities as, for example, lands that russia has already seized in ukraine. it seems that this may mean that he wants to keep it as part of the peace agreement. it is clear that the authorities in kyiv are not going to agree to this, they have already stated that russia should withdraw from all

occupied territories before the beginning of any peace talks, despite the fact that xi jinping and vladimir putin not only mentioned the war in ukraine in their articles, but also that this process of peace negotiations means indicates that this is the center of their negotiations behind closed doors let's see what the chinese leader will say to vladimir putin or say that it's time for russia to retreat. or maybe he will offer to continue or even more actively advance, and beijing knows how to support it. well, before that, putin went to mariupol at the weekend, at least this is the video released by the russian media, supposedly putin flew to the ukrainian port city captured by russian troops by helicopter. in the first part of the edited video, vladimir putin drives a car and inspects the city, then shows footage seemingly from premises of the mariupol philharmonic later on the network also appeared clips where putin communicates with a group of people the video was recorded in

the dark hour of the day the street is deserted except for those invited to the meeting they thank putin on camera then he goes into one of the apartments and inspects the rooms bbc can not confirm where under what circumstances were these videos recorded in london today, ministers of justice from around the world met and discussed support for the investigation of war crimes in ukraine by the international criminal court kyiv on the conference was presented by minister of justice denys maluska and prosecutor general andriy kostyan, the meeting took place after a warrant for the arrest of russian president vladimir putin was issued in the hague. britain , the netherlands, finland and other countries have already announced their intention to transfer additional funds to the budget of the international criminal court for the investigation of crimes committed in ukraine by vice- british prime minister dominic crabbe has said that the government will continue to fund and provide expertise to the court

until it is done by the justices second year we are meeting at a time when the second year of the invasion begins, when the war that brought incredible suffering to the people of ukraine is still going on. we continue to support ukraine, which courageously resists this open aggression. it is absolutely important that we continue to support the people of ukraine in their efforts to protect their country and ensure a free ukraine not only for their sake, but also for of democracy throughout the world and the fundamental principle of the rule of international law that unites us today is why we are all here today and what we hope to achieve in return, namely

to guarantee the international supremacy of the right to reject impunity and to ensure responsibility for the worst crimes against the international order with inna the allocation of two billion worth of ammunition to ukraine with these funds they plan to send a million artillery shells exactly about a million ammunition previously requested by volodymyr zelenskyi it is expected that this amount will be sent within the next 12 months another package of military aid to ukraine was allocated from the united states, we are talking about 350 million dollars in new military aid packages contains additional ammunition for the humer stag killers ammunition for bradley infantry fighting vehicles and also anti -tank missiles river missiles and other equipment since the full-scale invasion the usa has provided ukraine with assistance in the amount of about 30 billion dollars well, today the members of the synod of the ukrainian orthodox church of the moscow patriarchate came to the president's office led the delegation of metropolitan onufrii, the purpose of such a visit was to convey to the state leadership the positions

of the ukrainian orthodox church. this is how it goes on the website, the members of the church demanded synod to meet with president zelenskyi, and instead the employees of the president's office came for them, but the members of the synod refused to convey their appeal to them, then an air alarm started in kyiv and after a two-hour standoff, everyone left. about the termination of the contract according to which the monks used state property and to leave the lavra they have until march 29, we will talk more about this, contact us religion from skills andriy smirnov p andriyu i congratulate you well, for the first time in history, the head of the upc came to the bank to the president of ukraine as a request , or was he frankly ignored? did this come as a surprise to you and will

the current events not be an for the accusations that the government does not want to talk to animals. congratulations colleagues, i think that if in 2015 metropolitan onufriy berezovskyi, his right -hand man metropolitan antony pokavich, stood up during the commemoration of ukrainian heroes in the verkhovna rada, they would not have had to b 3 hours today to stand on lutheranska street waiting for the president and this was such a spontaneous situational decision of metropolitan onufriy because he does not have a clear plan for getting out of this crisis situation in which the ukrainian orthodox church found itself in unity with the moscow patriarchate during the year of the war, the uoc was never able to establish an effective dialogue with the state has a lot of claims , including to the governor of the kiev-pechersk lavra , the odious bishop pavlo lebedya, and there were so many wishes to release bishop pavlo from this

position, but even today's synod did not dared to do it well, next wednesday, it will already be march 29, the last day when uoc monks can be in the lavra. how do you see the scenarios of the development of events at the moment ? that on march 29 they completely depend on their cells , on the contrary, i think that they will be used as a human shield so that they continue to live there and make such non-violent resistance to any actions of the authorities, well, evict them or ask the monks to vacate these premises, which i will remind

are in state property, but the contract was signed by the azarov government for an unlimited period, now the legislation has changed and there is a law on the lease of state communal property , it will be necessary to conclude a new contract and already with a clear fixed rent, therefore, in these new realities, it is necessary to seek an understanding with the state waiting for the reception of the president on the street and authorizing the relevant persons to conduct negotiations because on the territory of the lower lavra there is not only a monastery where more than 200 monks live, but also the administrative center of the ukrainian of the orthodox church of the moscow patriarchate, the kyiv metropolitanate, which will definitely be transferred to another place because it cannot operate effectively in such conditions, and the third object is an educational institution, the kyiv theological academy and seminary, where more than 300 students study, they are already being transferred online

training, and therefore there will still be changes in the lavra in terms of scenarios, analysts predict several options for the development of events , firstly, the monks will stay there until the end, even illegally, and secondly, because they may transfer to the orthodox church of ukraine and metropolitan epiphanius of kyiv and all ukraine has already appealed to the brothers to go to the orthodox church of ukraine to stay there and pray more. he offered them to choose a new head and humin of the lavra from among themselves. we will see if they are willing. but there is also a third scenario when the monks could turn to the ecumenical patriarch with a request to restore the ancient stauropygy, i.e. the direct subordination of the monastery to the ecumenical

patriarch as it was in the 17th century until the moscow patriarchate did not annex this lavra, well, yes, you talked about unification, so what do you expect that an even larger part of the uoc will transfer to the ptu, or has everyone already done it? well, we are not only talking about lavru, yes, the transitions continue. they are not as massive as they were immediately after the tomos or after the beginning of the russian large-scale invasion of ukraine, but almost every day there are transitions of certain apparatuses from the uoc mp to the ptu. unfortunately, most of such transitions take place without priests, so eh for orthodox church of ukraine this is also a challenge, and where to find so many priests for these more than a thousand parishes that have already changed their canonical

subordination in the near future , i think that the transfers will continue, but they will not be so massive. the united states , along with great britain and other allies, entered iraq to overthrow the dictator saddam hussein's regime, this was part of the great war on terror that president george w. began after the terrorist attack on september 11, 2001, the official reason for the invasion was the presence of cancer, weapons of mass destruction, and the widespread connection with international terrorism , in particular, the al-qaeda movement, the decision to use military force against cancer was supported by 45 countries, but 98% were the contingents of the united states and great britain. after several after weeks of fierce fighting , the coalition armed forces occupied and put an end to hussein's rule, but only a few

shells with nerve gas were found from iraqi weapons of mass destruction. the war in iraq brought not only military losses, according to various reports, more than a million civilians died, and the number of orphaned children reached 5 million, according to bbc correspondent jeremy bone. if part of the old city of mosul has not yet been rebuilt, it was destroyed in 2017 during the war with the jihadists of the islamic state caliphate it was a real house to house slaughter and it went on for months i was here then and saw so many dead and civilians and militants and the decline of the islamic state also known as idil were part of

the disaster that engulfed iraq and was felt throughout the middle east, and many of those events have their origins in march 2003 , when the americans, the british and their allies launched massive airstrikes with which the americans started the war, they called it shock and awe, they falsely claimed that it was way to make the middle east safer for everyone in a few weeks they removed iraqi dictator sadam hussain from power another false claim was that he had weapons of mass destruction the us navy delivered president george w. bush on board the aircraft carrier from which he announced the victory of terran was overthrown and iraq was free. it was impossible to be more wrong. before

the invasion, the americans did not come up with anything to replace the hussein regime. in the end, they imposed a system that set religious and ethnic groups against each other. in the following years chaos and violence reigned here, hundreds of thousands of raksas died , exactly how many are not known for sure, because armed groups fought among themselves and against the americans, and also killed the civilian population, a large part of mosul and other cities rebuilt - these are such bright spots, as for the west of the americans and the british, many places in the world laugh when they talk about peace and international law in the light of what happened here, but the most important thing is how the invasion affected the lives and destinies

of millions of people and not only in cancer and throughout the middle east. well, the consequences of global warming may become inevitable very soon. this is the main message of the main scientific report on climate change approved by the un. the assessment of the climatic situation is generally disappointing. good news, limiting global warming to one and a half degrees celsius compared to pre-industrial times is possible, but humanity has very little time for this, to avoid catastrophic changes, it is necessary to act immediately and on all fronts, scientists emphasize. this is a report of hundreds of leading scientists of the world, it summarizes the data on global warming meeting and for ten years, however , only a summary of the report was made public. and it itself is delayed due to disputes over

which countries should receive compensation for damages from climate change well, this report should become a kind of monkey for countries in their fight against global warming, so how to avert the inevitable report from switzerland by bbc correspondent justin rolletta dogs, rescuers are trying to find the bodies of more than two and a half hundred people who probably died during the tropical storm rips through malawi meteorologists say storm freddy could become longest-lasting tropical cyclone on record today's report looks at what climate change will do similar natural disasters are even more powerful but hope is not lost, the un secretary general is confident that the limit of one and a half degrees is quite achievable, but it will lead to a serious shift in the fight against global warming , this report is a strong indicator for a large-scale acceleration of climate efforts by every country, every sector of the economy and in every period of time in the past year alone

, alpine glaciers lost 6% of their volume in order to curb climate change , the un secretary general is confident that it is necessary to act on all fronts , literally use everything everywhere and at once on this weather stations in the alps have been collecting climate data for decades today's report predicts that humanity will almost certainly exceed the limit of one and a half degrees, the limit that would allow avoiding the worst consequences of climate change low-carbon technologies such as electric cars and renewable energy will be an important contribution to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, but will also be needed such solutions as this station in iceland are able to collect co2 from the air, scientists say , they warn that this is only the first stage of the development of a new technology and it is still very dear, but this is another reminder of the huge challenges

facing humanity in the fight against climate change. well, that's all for today. look for more stories on our website bbc.ua. and on our pages in social networks there you will always find updated and reliable information, and we will again on the air tomorrow at 21:00 good luck and take care of yourself, the usual things become unreal heavy bags are not for my sick back because of back pain try dolegid cream dolgit cream relieves pain, reduces swelling and improves joint mobility with dolgit cream what do you want i will lift dolgit is the only yellow cream for pain in the joints
