troops the organization of ukrainian nationalists who gave up on their former ally and began fighting equally against the germans and the soviet forces. in january nine hundred forty three u.s.s.r. troops started pushing the nazis back liberating one part of ukraine after another . western ukraine was the last ukrainian region held by the germans finally being liberated in october of one nine hundred forty four. bands continue to wage their guerrilla war against the soviet regime carrying out bloody raids on ukrainian villages and towns and leaving behind chaos and casualties. this war went on until the middle of the one nine hundred fifty s. when the last collaborators were either detained or fled the country. on may seventh one thousand nine hundred forty five germany and can do. lisa rendered

to the allies ukraine remained a part of the soviet union. the peace after the second world war was short lived. the united states and the soviet union nations who allied together along with england to defeat the nazis tragically became foes as the cold war began. the stakes couldn't be higher and it's happening in syria the goal of destroying the islamic state is largely complete now the syrian proxy war is in train a new stage for the players and one of their aims and what does winning.

most people think just stand out in this business you need to be the first one on top of the story or the person with the loudest voice of the biggest raid in truth to stand out on the news business you just need to ask the right questions and demand the right answer. question. the era of political and military tensions between the u.s. and the u.s.s.r. lasted for nearly forty five years keeping humanity under the constant threat of nuclear war.

in this battle the united states never lost sight of ukraine's importance. the u.s. intelligence kept a close eye on ukrainian nationalist organizations as a possible source of counter intelligence against the soviet union. cia documents that just recently have been declassified chos strong ties between u.s. intelligence and ukrainian nationalists since one thousand nine hundred forty six from the cia agency report it is clear that they were not mistaken about the nature of ukrainian nationalists organizations or their leaders step on monday or are himself according to an o.s.'s report of september one thousand nine hundred forty five bunn darragh had earned a fierce reputation for conducting a reign of terror during world war two after the second world war under another ukrainian nazi leaders fled to europe where the cia helped them hide. the cia later inform the immigration and naturalization service that it had concealed steffen

bond darragh and other ukrainians from the soviets the operations involving ukrainians continued for many years the nuremberg trials of one thousand nine hundred forty five in one nine hundred forty six brought the political economic and military leaders of fascist germany to justice and revealed to the world the monstrous face of naziism and the crimes they committed but the ukrainian nazis were spared the same fate and some were even granted indulgences by the cia by nine hundred fifty four the agency excused the illegal activities of the zero un security branch. in the name of cold war necessity in one nine hundred forty nine nicola levitt the man responsible for the massacres in the lena was moved to the united states where he died in one thousand nine hundred nine without ever being investigated or pursued as a war criminal the cia moved to protect ukrainian nationalist leader nicola legged from criminal investigation by the immigration and naturalization service in one

nine hundred fifty two perhaps pantera lost his use to the us or maybe k.g.b. agents outsmarted the cia but in one nine hundred fifty nine step on bond era the leader of the ukrainian nationalists was killed in munich where he was hiding under the name of stefan pople it would be fair to say that pantera became a major symbol of ukrainian nationalism by sheer chance for he was neither its only leader nor its most powerful one dimitrov don't solve was the father of the far right to tell a tarion doctrine in ukraine andriy melnyk was the leader of another faction of the o. un romance you have it was a general of the ukrainian insurgent army and others contributed greatly to the movement blunder as dangerous ideology suppressed by the communist authorities but supported by external forces never really died the seeds of ukrainian nationalism or passed from generation to generation unfortunately it was just

a matter of time before they would once again blossom. in one nine hundred fifty four ukraine's territory was expanded even more when nikita khrushchev the leader of the u.s.s.r. and ukrainian himself generously gave the crimean region to ukraine. historians would argue about the legitimacy of this transfer for many years to come and sixty years after khrushchev's gift dramatic new events would take place in crimea was around the world are on ukraine as a crisis in crimea continues dozens of heavily armed men seize government buildings in crimea shut you crazy. just shrug your shoulders and say ok crimea is lost and the old arguments would heat up once again. the cold war would heat up and cool down by turns while both rivals were obsessive leave building up military capacity the turning point took place when the new era perestroika came to the u.s.s.r.

with its new leader mikhail gorbachev in the middle of the one nine hundred eighty s. . perestroika meant restructuring towards liberalization and democratization it certainly had a positive impact on the international situation astonishing news from east germany by the east german authorities have said that in essence of the berlin wall doesn't mean anything anymore. but inside the u.s.s.r. the weakening of kremlin control had different consequences. in ukraine a nationalistic political organization. or people's movement emerged in one nine hundred eighty nine due to this mild openness. they advocated for independence of ukraine from the u.s.s.r. and became an incubator for leaders of ukraine in nazi s. . in one thousand nine hundred one one of them new

book founded svoboda an openly radical nationalist party preaching the good old principles of bondage era. per jew crane from the jews in russia ukraine for ukrainians and so on his statements got him fifth place in the simon vs and thought center top ten anti semitic world leader rankings of two thousand and twelve. it also sadly attracted numerous follow ups. dimitry are founded another extreme right organization treason or trident in one nine hundred ninety four. in april two thousand and thirteen became an assistant to a member of parliament from the opposition party who died. later that same year he

would become the leader of the most radical ukrainian nazi group the right sector. andriy paro be would soon appear leading a whole army of ultra nationalist warriors. and the torch marches would once again light up the streets of ukrainian cities. with. the world drastically changed in august one thousand nine hundred ninety one when the u.s.s.r. de facto ceased to exist and the global political map welcomed many newcomers ukraine one of them in modern history it was the first time ukraine was truly independent and all on its own.

the red flag came down over the kremlin tonight as president gorbachev resigned and or to an end seven decades of communist rule in the soviet union. the years after the disintegration of the u.s.s.r. became known as the crazy ninety's in all the post soviet territories. he's leaving behind fifteen independent states which share only a disastrous economy and an uncertain future after having been under a government controlled economy the free market dramatically changed the rules of the game new businesses emerged instantly in the first. all the guards were born overnight. the former country with no class division suddenly became stratified the chosen few became rich while the rest had to fight to survive. still as it was the pollution is a sickness to herschel as. they what does that say. you know

she's still of us living in the slopes listed and using your trees in the water when you sell as opposed to pollution is a. good. or less than human you to do a little good reason yeah they will because they have any choice in as many as you know dump a scale of the system like the good jewish mysticism and i'm just impressed i'm going to go shopping is one that will eventually you will sell it at the appraisal of a socialist slush a chicago ped the people's growing discontent made ukraine more vulnerable to outside forces and a new kind of warfare was launched one not known before the color revolutions. illustrators clashed with police hundreds of thousands protesting the results of the election and calling for a new vote. ukraine has had to color revolutions in its twenty four years of independence in two thousand and four crowds of people descended upon kiev

marking the start of the orange revolution. at that time ukraine became once again a battlefield of two forces the russian and western governments the culmination of this conflict took place during the presidential elections in november of two thousand and four. the two major candidates western backed victoria yuschenko and russian leaning victoria on a covert almost equally shared the votes of ukrainians by the way calling viktor yuschenko western backed is not an exaggeration. his wife. catarina yuschenko is a former u.s. state department official and worked in the white house during the reagan administration the division was along geographic lines traditionally russian eastern ukraine voted for young age while western ukraine chose yuschenko by the announced result viktor yuschenko lost to victory on

a covert each but thousands of people didn't agree with it and they came to the central square of kiev on the twenty second of november. the situation received wide news coverage the country's election commission ignored reports of fraud declaring kremlin backed victory the winner international politicians such as former general secretary of nato. became frequent guests in kiev initiating negotiations between parties in a faltering will. be able to come to. the results of the negotiations however were often reached only on paper thus you shan't go never told the supporters to stop blocking government buildings in central kiev. and therefore these nonviolent and very orange protests lasted for a month during which time the previous election results were no marred by massive corruption and new elections were announced an important nuance just three months

before viktor yuschenko became a victim to a mysterious and still unsolved poisoning but it didn't prevent him from winning in the new election. though as we shall soon see there was much more than just the people's will that led to this victory this peaceful revolution and its leader warmly welcomed by the international community but the euphoria didn't last long yuschenko government completely failed with reforms and lost its chance to establish democracy instead descending into infighting viktor yuschenko was not reelected for a second term but at. the end of his presidency he had the time to make one last gift to his supporters from western ukraine. in america a college degree requires a great deal. paying a decade's long debt. studying so hard it requires trying to.

i. mean if north korea really believes we're about to conduct a preemptive strike of this could be a significant and a serious preemptive strike that may. they may be motivated to make it to try to be the. so the fights have to go first like. that just. certain i want to do things that show me face doing really be very clear like go

away go to. management. and they on they they have one they have and they have then you. you need yeah you feel. something yeah i'm them what do you how to become a something like nobody loves local do you want to. come to mind if. i want to be in the book to measure the next. stunt is getting international recognition with the help of israel at least in the world of zoos i'm in bill fails to finish it to do it for you like you know that this isn't my cup of tea is going to have no clothes on me all may be

a bit. old john no doubt a tough job. the only palestinians who gets the most hopeful is jerusalem counterparts i don't think there's some of those who in the world and those over vision they're not going to go through this. and know it is all off out there it's got to this lady of the most of the jihad i don't think it'll be in the doesn't seem to do more in the middle sauced don't put this off. well.

the u.s. secretary of state says washington will limit its support to the syrian kurds during a visit to ankara intended to improve ties with nato ally turkey. experiences being embraced by competitive from around the world at the winter games in south korea with rivals helping each other around. the specific russian athlete he offered me help technical help the fact that he was willing to reach out and help me in such a desperate time shows that sport can bridge the cultures it can bridge politics. and french president emmanuel. out of the presidential palace which has been their home for decades.

you're watching altie international line from a moscow studio with mina do what you do welcome to the program the u.s. secretary of state is in turkey in an effort to mend ties with ankara rex tillerson promised america would limit its arms supplies to kurdish militias. we have always been clear with turkey that the weapons provided to the syrian forces would be limited mission specific provided all experimental bases to achieve military objectives only the nato allies have been at odds over kurdish forces in syria in the run up to the meeting the turkish defense minister made clear what i am pro wants from the us. we demand that this relationship and by that i mean we want them to and all the support given to the syrian arm of the p.k. k. the white b.g. . let's take a closer look now at the two groups just referred to by the turkish defense minister the p.k. k.

is the kurdistan workers' party a group that's been fighting a turkish authorities for more than thirty years and quote considers them a terrorist organization the white p.g. on the other hand is a mostly kurdish militia based in syria ankara regards them as a branch of the k.k. however the us led coalition sees the white b.g. as allies in january the pentagon announced it was creating a kurdish led security force right on turkey's doorstep to northern syria in response i launched a military campaign against kurdish militias and cross has long been complaining about the us arming syria's kurds however washington insists that his weapon supplies a limited. we have never given heavy arms to the wife e.g. so there's no one to take but we need to arm and train and equip their pressure and help the kurdish government in erbil and strong and starch allies we should be using we should be doing the kurdish region to be that been.

really proven to be the most really do is not a long standing. supporting the kurds or the peshmerga who are on the front lines fighting isis now the turkish government considers these kurdish forces operating in syria to be terrorists and feels quite threatened by them and has been a long outspoken in demanding that the united states and its support for these forces here why does the u.s. continue to send weapons in syria even off to i suppose being clear why do these weapons still arrive because you must be pressing against america is in the process of creating a terror army on abdulla what we have to do is nip this terror army in the bud american do not encroach on our borders do not provoke us we will run out of patience tillerson has arrived in turkey and he'll be going to an embassy a u.s. embassy in turkey that is on

a street that's actually maimed for the military operation against those kurdish forces armed by the united states operation olive branch that's sending a pretty clear message to washington that they do not approve of this policy of arming kurdish forces the united states is caught in a strange place between two allies it's aligned with the kurdish forces and it's also aligned with the turkish government a member of nato that considers those kurdish forces to be terrorists one expert told us turkey is losing patience with the u.s. and needs more than just words from its ally. actually there i don't know what united states want but in turkey the government and the people of turkey believe that actually is of you are fed up with these words that's coming from america i'm a saint good to be you know i understand the security teams of turkey it's the same kind of big kurdish forces. turkey is expecting there's some you know not promises to do something related to syrian issue now turkey is

you know not waiting for any diplomatic sentences from the united states just want to keep its promises to deliver this promises to keep otherwise i think it doesn't work you know this kind of diplomatic meetings for turkey. is now one week since the winter olympics in south korea officially began less to be embracing the olympic spirit but some fans have been saluted to making online threats to reports from china unfortunately with these winter olympics the story has been that every other day yung chang treats the media with some sort of scandal so far perhaps one of the most disgusting ones for me was when a canadian short track speed skater was receiving death threats from the locals after she finished fourth first but then a south korean athlete was disqualified and then her position was upgraded to third

place and that's when the ugly things started happening but you shouldn't get the impression that the a look big games are doomed because in many sports there is such family spirit it's the kind of family spirit that goes first after nationality rivalry politics it said sure there was one good example when during a cross-country skiing competition a row. skier lost a part of his equipment and then an american coach rushed to help him out if the russian sphere had to do this u. turn you don't come back to pick it up that would have been a disaster for the race but thanks to the american coach it didn't happen and we talked to the man in the cross country ski family is this exactly that it's a family we often benefit from russian or no region coach is giving our athletes a pole in a race and we'll do the same i would say it's very friendly when you walk by

a russian athlete or coach will always say congratulations or if we've had a good race they will say congratulations to us three years ago and most of the entire russian women's team came up to our hotel in her tea and cookies with our own her continue and not many people spoke the same language we know a few words of russian a couple of them they knew some more english than we knew russian but we had a great time and it was one of those moments in my career that i remember well i guess when it comes to whole what i call rivals russia and the u.s. helping each other out in sports it works both ways and here with me i got the chang silver medalist in luge bris master who definitely knows what i'm talking about and he's ready to tell us about a story that happened to him a few months ago as far as a distant chris hi again congratulations and what's that story with the russian

athlete i guess helping you out yeah thank you very much it was a couple weeks ago where i was having a very difficult last season people were starting to reach out and help me and there was a specific russian athlete he offered me helpful technical help with with my i pod with with fiberglass with with aerodynamics and although it didn't work because i'm much larger than he is the fact that he was willing to reach out and help me in such like a desperate time shows that sport can bridge. you know cultures that can bridge politics that we can connect on the human level through sports and that's that's really what embodies the olympics here is that so many countries are coming together connecting through sport it really shows the power of the human spirit absolutely this is a small little step it takes a lot of people to get one of these and i can't think simulate enough for thinking about me and just trying to help me out and it's a time of need i am very close friends with with so many different russian athletes

and yes there's been a lot of scandals and i'm really i can't wait for the day that we can move past this and we can just get right back to sport clean sport it's so easy to talk about negative things but it's really difficult to highlight these positive situations you know who knows maybe one to a live picture this will all be behind us and we'll get right back to you know clean competition and a lot of fun and kathy's from russia it's another day another medal early on friday the team won another bronze and another silver skier this third in his race won the key to came second in skeleton that makes a total of seven medals. from russian team. now the winter olympics on the any major sporting events you might want to follow this year with the football world cup not just months away. it's into the history of one legendary football club that despite its massive influence on the game now

to hit the big time. which could spoil all white kicks. which quote gave all eleven players to three. which inspired one of brazil's right football clubs ladies and gentlemen i give you corinthian casuals. what actually happened was in nineteen zero seven there was a split between the if i became the i. and it was quite acrimonious to do with the amateur professional and the if i refused to allow any if i play as all clubs to appear on the pitch is all there so there was a complete split their spirit was he wouldn't you just saw in the first world. after the first.
