himself arrived at the scene to personally take part in the cleanup commentators believe people feel deceived by the promises made to the. situation's quite ironic to say the least since the revolution seemed to take a three hundred sixty degree turn the government they have right now is simply replaced the other. and there simply at a point of exit. it seems like nothing much to exchange overall plus there's a civil war in east some forces from the might have gone on into power and they are now acting against those that are outside of power that have political differences with the regime that has come to power and so we see a lot of ideological differences petty personality fighting and really a power play among different factions. the russian news agency ria novosti has launched a campaign in support of one of its photo reporters who is missing in eastern ukraine is holding an outdoor display of his work to inform the public about his

12:10 pm
a response to the economic sanctions imposed on moscow the ban will block meat fruit vegetables some dairy and fish imports for one year those watching international trade say this shows that russia is a different animal to other nations sanctions recently what's striking is that when . the sanctions were ramped up against iran that was very little a wrong could do the west didn't really need much from iran that's not the case with russia and i think russia has made very clear that it will retaliate in a proportionate manner with the european culture set to bear the brunt of the import by an e.u. leaders that backed sanctions against russia look likely to face farmers in export is demanding compensation for their losses there's someone there know it's going to affect us all for us it will take two or three months to collect our remaining crops of oranges and we don't know what will happen if no one buys them from the

national put it it's a disaster for my company will need to stop production the money will receive without imports to russia won't even be enough to pay for the buses that bring our staff to work. so i don't know what we're going to do if this continues. being threatened in our region we have dedicated to good part of our produce to this market and so this is very dramatic force that european food exports to russia were worth over twelve billion euros last year between year and then learned with the first contact brussels about compensation some estimates suggest the ban could cost the finnish economy four hundred million euro mostly from dairy exports elsewhere the german trade union that deals with wholesale foreign trade said the ban posed a risk to the economy in his country in greece the opposition party says accuse the current government's actions of being detrimental to farming and in ireland the minister for agriculture said there was real worry particularly regarding cheese

slovak ural bulgaria for example which are almost entirely powered by russia and many others rely on its gas as a main source as well of course the scheme could be replaced by south stream pipeline project that bypasses ukraine its construction is being hindered by e.u. lawmakers but southern nations say that they're ready to push through construction for his opinion on this issue let's speak now to foreign affairs expert no bush or mileage thanks so much for joining us a lot of people of picked up on the fact that what of once the do would presumably have a negative impact on the e.u. what do you think of that is trying to achieve here. while it's not a question i want yes wants which people who are running want because let's face it the government is the question is how much it's being controlled from washington not if if the regime in entirely under control of washington this is an attempt another attempt to make the sanctions. far

12:15 pm
to walk this it's its transatlantic partners now if transit through ukraine is could of it pretty obvious it's the countries in central and southern europe who will suffer the most are the ones who take the bulk of that supply do you think the rest of the e.u. will rally come together and share their gas i don't think so i don't think. you're being structured that it is in times of crisis it's the man for himself. rescuing greek banks was like pulling teeth and that wasn't even helping the people that was sticking them with the deals any sort of trans european solidarity i'm very very skeptical and just very quickly there is speculation when it comes to gas people start mentioning the u.s. supply of shale gas if the e.u. is getting less gas from russia do you think there's any way the u.s. could step in with the supply not there is simply no technical or transportation cheap ability to deliver on even one percent of iraq's needs through change your
