5:07 pm
which is pretty hard to say what what is true what is not waiting for some sort of official of more viable confirmation of this sort of story going on but we've already been to that mimics the base and it seems pretty comical moment over them. but despite still being on the court is actually dead or whether there actually any doubt at all and who actually buy it. the stores even a short four five it will be of some somewhat alarming reports are coming from it with a defence ministry has allowed to be something great in soups based on the crimean territory so you was a firearms if he did so this is free but still a tense situation. on the back double bass to what seems to be a celebration here. i think i like random dungeon as some of ben's that just right behind you they then holding up a kind thing to do that as difficult coming back to subbing the internet trying to achieve it happens that today hint of what's been the reaction of the new thing and it's not because they consider them to know that but out what else did you witness while you out
5:08 pm
the some quaint and peaceful here in the essential listen to what people are partying in bars and restaurants across the area he added we see scenes of jubilation coming from the city of stars and city of delft in the south of the peninsula where the people to good use of a rush accepting twenty s as part of its territory they happily so this is pretty much adulation scene and has been a very sensitive issue for the peninsula out of one point five million people who were eligible to vote a referendum one point two with even more than one point two million actually voted to join russia sold for as many people here for the overwhelming majority the sentiment is like we are coming home and they're pretty much a celebration of the pops. just kidding p diddy and celebration they just behind it they will leave you with fantasy and tested them imported from china. wes and the nation have been petite condemn moscow's decision on crimean washington as well as that in

germany in front that granted it's a land grab which they would refuse to accept that they can listen to that. make no mistake pres obama has been clearer and clearer. there will be a cost attached to this landslide the new executive order that expands the scope of our sanctions in force to a russian leaders have responded with a breeze brazen military incursion sixteen matches against twenty one individuals russia's actions in crimea but in the future all due credit. there will be additional and far reaching consequence is. what does the same token that is in washington for us and has been a funny reaction from the white house. as the cfa not make obama administration reacted to all that's been happening in the news that in russia has now finally accepted my knee and back in its mold. the kind of rhetoric that we have been hearing coming out of washington dc and the west in
5:10 pm
general seems to be fitted with a crash course the net on how to apply a short term memory loss and apply double standards any more than a language that is being used not so familiar and should really apply in so many ways to the most recent history of the united states itself that sometimes when you're listening to these that statement it's hard to believe that they applied to rush at first only heard from my us secretary of state today talking abt him continuing to tune out the door the fact that the west that they will be more cost for us to international law is that term is being repeated over and over again. we've heard kerry say that unilateralism leads to the international was not eating anything which is shed you said that sell living by international law and that if something bad what does it expect others to do. we've also heard doubts that saying along the lines of america is exceptional because we do exceptional things i had these are also not sentiments
5:11 pm
that were echoed by albino earlier and came out of the white house lied to speaking of double standards we did here in terms of this international law violation accusations we've heard from the russian president putin saying according to imam roundabout but two thousand and nine on the western international criminal court basically stating that a declaration of independence by leasing now and not international law. these double standards and some very discrepancies and seven was asked to lead over the cranium referendum for independence we continue to disseminate stories stevenson allegations that are worth being broken down for clarity purposes first off the perennial referendum took place sunday over the weekend we sought thames trickling in to discredit the legitimacy of the vote. reports about armed men allegedly kidnapping a priest a legend feeders of the gas depot
5:12 pm
taking place as well as accusations on russian troops trying to enter its territory close to prank me. keep in mind none of these allegations were ever fished the compliance or supported but the actual facts on the ground. the us supporting the interim government in ukraine has repeatedly claimed that it sees the cranium referendum after we go see it as a violation of ukraine's constitution cleaning brush up for it ever taking place as well as all of the events unraveling in ukraine for that matter that there is a constitutional crisis in place. this election for all the better word over time. the court to reach. that is not so good where did that. the shortage of people living in chretien came out to support a referendum for the economist the to meet ukraine over sixty percent of its population being rushed and
5:13 pm
us officials echoed naturally by the western mainstream media for trey to vote as one that took place especially at gunpoint from russia the and this images of celebration and she hears not making headlines in the west no surprises here and happiness surrounding a result of the referendum doesn't fit into well with the weft america. he minimized the damage is awful aged russian tanks selected russian forces a belated russian city of the border with ukraine. more than enough times tried to explain that any actual military option would only be regarded as the very last resort despite the statements are up obama has dubbed russia's pacific nations surrounding ukraine and the threats to u s national security. been quite curious way to describe left lutheran it's not like russia is next door to the west exactly that and it's not so surprising. every time it seems the west gets involved in a crisis anywhere in the world. it's either because of its own national security or to protect human
5:14 pm
rights. whether those reasons are based on facts it is a whole other story meantime there's a us navy destroyer in the black sea. next ukrainian territory place there as a result of the kenyan crisis this for some reason not in violation of anything. could it be because the vessel in question is america. go figure. i see church and eighteen washington dc. among the potential penalties for russia s don from creamy and happened to paul said russia could be suspended from the g eight percent on flying a merkel has not played on this case. let's discuss what must we can expect a with the economy and the body she's of this defense on international affairs at the university of buckingham joining us live from london he lived with us the ninety meant that the us and canada west and media nation said that they don't recognize crimea rejoining the shia
5:15 pm

5:16 pm
it is in ukraine the situation right now politically in terms of being connected to people in position. they have been beamed. that tends to be they would campaign on team in the crimean sense that this is why we do not recognize them and hence we went to eat because a democrat to be elected in a different president has been removed so how then can they still ask people what not. would they haven't built a fortune off of what that mission. if you would have to wait until the full political processes in ukraine has happened to the election to create a new government and then of course there would have to be negotiations between and. it was a cd in crimea and the government of ukraine also i presume in conjunction with me haha so when justifying the legality of the referendum of president putin has cited the example the possible. do you think that parallel is
5:17 pm

5:18 pm
the group will they still have that warm the snow kept howling in that time how is it going to be balanced. what you wish. what seems to me that you actually have to do is to go back to nineteen ninety two to the bad ensure commission. wasn't that into commission set up by the eu which determine the rules of the successor states to the soviet union they were very strict in not allowing the territorial divisions in other words a regional administrative territories had to stay in tact. but it seems to me that that's where you want to go back and wanted me to think that. you want to you what to think about territories. police seized a large ethnic minorities with an saf that majorities in the territory that wish to be attached to it continues to bless me
