to say that they are you know you react from russia and i think it was yeah ok ok enough said then i'll move on. which is when you get it if there are doubts they're not. officials of the russian government they're just asking a question about rochelle really ok well we know that that r.t. and other russian news or so-called news organizations are there i'm dead and directed by the russian government so if i don't have a lot of this sure no matter how they're going to assess you will think about oh my god. or president putin speech also sent parts of the media into a frenzy accusing russia of rewinding to the cold war he was also pressed the budget in an interview with america's n.b.c. network. the white house and the country learning of that new threat from russian president warning at first reason and in the west in particular not to mess with
3:06 am
russia a computer graphics of missiles flying over mountains and heading over oceans and he says he's not bluffing several analysts in the west have said this is the declaration of a new cold war are we in a new arms race right now my point of view is the individuals who have said that a new cold war has started are not really analysts they do propaganda if you were to speak about arms race than an arms race began at exactly the time in moment when the u.s. opted out of the anti-ballistic missile treaty or to stress his point something new weapons serve only to ballance world powers putin and pointed i'd bet the u.s. has already deployed missile defense systems in alaska and california nato is also expanding into eastern europe with two sites set up in romania and poland a new locations are soon to be established in japan and south korea we spoke to
3:07 am
several defense on list so you think the russian president's speech was not intended as a threat. these are not designed for war fighting these are designed to send a very clear message that president putin said quite clearly which is that these these systems are basically saying if you mess with us we will nuke you and we will not hold back now that is a strategic statement it's not a statement about escalating to deescalating which is what the russians are often accused of and were accused of officially by the american government. decades after the cold war the usa ruled the world and that balance of power is now shifting with russia coming in with many other major players from what you've seen is saying and i hope is absolutely right that this is a deterrent against the american led defense system and that's a very important effective. i don't
3:08 am
see intensification of hostile talk or scheming and planning has in the cards so it's very reasonable to expect in the short term they will be. calling upon moscow to reenter into overall full and skip arms to go she talks that is certainly the greatest likelihood and certainly what for dinner putin. is looking for. it's been almost a week since humanitarian corridors were set up to a lot of civilians are the besieged areas of syria's eastern guten but so far all efforts to help people trapped there have proven for eclipse. what's happening there is that militants are not allowing civilians to leave they're opening fire on anyone trying to use the humanitarian routes set up by russia the un security council earlier adopted a resolution establishing
3:09 am
a thirty day nationwide ceasefire with five hour daily humanitarian pauses well the situation on the ground is complex as the syrian army are returning military operation against the terrorists in control of the earth here we spoke to people outside who are waiting to provide help to the civilians i'm here with the syrian army and i'm ready to help leaving eastern ghouta we have ambulances here with the words of the list of around the clock to provide first aid to people from the east and a medical labs also work twenty four hours have provided vehicles equipped with all modern facilities medical workers also ready to go but. if there were some people who wanted to leave eastern good but all of a sudden we only saw a gunman opening fire using mortars to intimidate civilians. let's look at the situation now on our news wall eastern future is located just start side the so.
3:10 am
capital damascus sun has been occupied by various rebel and terror groups for years it's the area in the red the syrian government forces or all iran did and violence there recently escalated again with both sides accusing each other of targeting civilians russia then set up the humanitarian corridor to the north of the region heading towards a checkpoint and camp where efforts to provide safe passage for those desperate to escape are being coordinated with the syrian red crescent buses. are on standby people inside the rebel enclave are being notified about the location of the card or via leaflets text alerts and lloyd speaker first aid points have also been set up near the exit to help those in need of urgent medical assistance on the failed truce efforts provoked a heated debate at the un security council. the
3:11 am
fighting has not stopped the opposition groups operating in eastern good to have made clear their commitment to the ceasefire on the very first day the militants use the declared pause to start an onslaught on the second day the same mortar shelling has continued including of the humanitarian corridor not a single person has left the danger zone because. there were reports that the assad regime once again used chlorine gas as a weapon i'm tired of asking this but do you understand how pointless it would be to damascus to use chemical weapons both from a military and political standpoint whereas for the militants it would make perfect sense i think you understand this perfectly well but you persistently look for a pretext for an armed intervention. russia does not get you know laterally rewrite the terms of the resolution if russia is able to deliver a five hour pause let it deliver a twenty four hour one she wouldn't which really need to me put to reduce our
3:12 am
western partners are portraying the situation as if the resolution applies only to damascus and to russia as if it all depends almost exclusively on the will of our country may i ask you what you have done to implement the resolution which if any of you live to the fingers you use your influence on those who you consider the moderate opposition have you persuaded them to lay down their weapons and release hostages. always playing with fire the one who was doing that was five dollars for voting weapons or is the same areas with five men think they're always providing media coverage for them. that what is happening. is a big. goal of innocent people what they care about is the. supply arms they have finance it. they have been breathing in the last few years and not the last war but they don't have. to admit that they lost the what was thought they
3:13 am
just keep getting. all those claims the mainstream media has been pushing comparisons between eastern on the previously long time besieged city of aleppo and also war torn mosul in neighboring iraq with some like let's queerly putting the blame on moscow president and his russian the accused of unleashing all out war against the people of ghouta russia and the syrian government are launching an offensive actually examining this hundreds of missiles and mortars on civilian homes and hospitals hospitals are targets in syria and the regime has been bombing them ruthlessly among all things eased goatees one of the last jihadi basti and just like aleppo it's been a long time den of the nusra front and the likes and since then new strain and salaries have only been getting cozy of their militias and he's due to have
3:14 am
a record of forcing civilians to sit tight amid the fighting and the worse it is for them the better the evidence indicates that non-state armed groups in eastern guta and a particular josh islam are also responsible for inflating the price of food and other basic necessities they're arbitrarily restricting the movement of civilians wishing to leave and the ducting and arbitrarily detaining people. human shields is a tactic favored by all terrorists including those who were in aleppo. and just like any still oppose there are no western reporters in rubble i'll go to reporters shoes are filled by young prodigies. this this what happens to the shame that our country seat of damascus under suspicion is

the name for serving is a girl buys a thoughtless assad regime. the white helmets a coupe marketing itself as a civil defense initiative there are volunteers work bomb sites as diligently sues as they have at the scene of the artistic secu shoes. but. wherever jihadi factions first they bring their white helmets in tow. like aleppo is no exception. now with some of the photos doing the rounds there's no surprise that there has been a surge in support for people living in eastern ghouta on social media with journalists and commentators sharing those pictures from the conflict zone or over not all of them appear to show what is really happening that's callup not been reports too heartbreaking photos posted with the words this is syria except it's
3:16 am
not actually syria one is from mosul in iraq and the other is from the israeli bombing of gaza now it's been raised in the comments that it's not actually syria but regardless this post by some guy in cleveland has tens of thousands of reach we decided to find out how many people here in new york would be ready to reach wieder share this with jury tweet that. i led i don't typically use twitter but. maybe now it just seems x. like very politically motivated without have any having any serious message behind it i definitely wouldn't i mean. just because there are horrors happening everywhere and i don't know if twitter is the proper forum for it anyways yes i would and why i'm half palestinian and this is the same thing that's going on in my country interestingly and this is mosul in iraq and that is gaza.
3:17 am
so it's not actually syria you know but it's equivalent the same type of things are going on in syria it's kind of just inform and it might not be you know to a t. informative but it's getting the message across that even if these pictures are someplace else it's ok do you think that you by that i mean to some extent yes if you think that it actually it's like taking initiative then i feel like the pictures don't really matter i think the real issue is scary and sad enough that we don't need to you know misinformed people to have real journalism to have real information and verify you know content with this be fake news. i mean part of why i don't use twitter is because of the information. fabrication that exists and also has it in about face it's exact reason you can't trust anything anymore and it's a sad state of the world now the saddest part is that some commenters say they don't actually care what they say people are dying in syria aren't they facts don't matter that's how things are in the post truth world caleb mop and artsy new york
