3:00 pm
i was sending responsibility between those who solicitous kind of work and need it, and those who do it with tonight, you divide deep and on russia is the french president travels to moscow for talked this lady may have posted those talks, continuing into the late hours. my home, a chrome notes the kremlin is quote, clearly not targeting ukraine, but rather to reset in nato and you ties with russian official branch of the country 70 percent ready to invade ukraine. is us propaganda is saying it's based on officials, undisclosed sources and no evidence in the latest in the series of accusations of alleged russian aggression being held on a daily basis in other news canada's capital. because the state of emergency claiming the cities under siege by protest dispensing their anger against kogut vaccine mandate, or to his police friends with anyone providing material support groups. the truck
3:01 pm
is conducting a blockade as part of the unrest. american cybersecurity firm, cloud fair, is accused of facilitating piracy. the company still gets usa contract despite accusations it protect site hosting, child abuse, images and paid speech with hello life mart. internationalist monday will welcome to a will due to the 11 pm for moscow with me, kevin, to 1st, while other western leaders been fanning the flames of the train crisis can report tonight talks continue late on into the evening. the french leader emanuel micron is here in moscow to try and diffuse the tensions at a meeting with russia. let him uprooted. the top level rendezvous began with some warm greetings earlier today in a briefly televised. welcome. ah, and just with
3:02 pm
a several of the points that micron was making earlier today were reiterated the fact that both russia and the western world need to find common ground to avoid war . and to be honest, this meeting between puttin and mac, ron actually came as a bit of a shock to many people. the french president has come out in strong support of diplomacy when it comes to these height and tensions around ukraine. and that's something that has no doubt been unsettling for the more hawkish voices in the west . now, in the run up to this meeting, micron even said that russia's goal was not to conquer ukraine. this is something that we've rarely been hearing in the western world. we must protect till european brothers by proposing a new balance capable of preserving this sovereignty in peace. this must be done while respecting russia and understanding the contemporary traumas of this great people in great nation. now, micron seems not only willing to compromise, but he also seemed quite optimistic about it. earlier. we heard him say that the heath he feels that these negotiations are the road to preventing any sort of military operation from taking place. and on the other hand,
3:03 pm
moscow was more reserved in its expectations for new mottoes to france. france is one of europe's leading countries and macaroni is currently at the helm of the you . but the situation is too complicated to expect to break through one meeting. now this meeting definitely comes at a unique time for both leaders for prudent. it comes alongside months of butting heads with western officials. i mean, earlier this month, washington rejected russia's proposals for security guarantees. the main point of contention being the call for nato to stop expanding eastward. and while the us seems resolute to continue to reject that proposal, that's actually one of the main talking points that micron has come to moscow too. with today, earlier on top of that, the western media has also been carrying out and a campaign of hysteria around a legit russian plans to invade ukraine. something that moscow has said that it not planning to do for the longest time, has been saying that. and even now, some outlets are calling this meeting or something that's risky,
3:04 pm
business for macro, that could backfire and embarrassingly for him, while others have even called it a success for putin just because the french president has given credence to the russian position now. and as for macro on, he's got elections coming up in april and he's no doubt trying to impress his voter base after all the presidents challenges actually already taking sides on this issue. we've got the far right, eric zimmer, who says that putins interest in stopping further eastward nato expansion is actually completely legitimate. and that it's been the u. s. that's been provoking russia. we've also got from the other side of the political spectrum. john look melancholy. who echoed these calls for a stop to nato expansion. even criticizing micron for saying that he would defend the integrity of ukraine. and also we've got the comments from the green saying that i actually met, micron should have visited ukraine 1st before visiting russia. so like i said, we saw the beginning of that meeting and some interesting stuff is definitely gonna come out of it. yeah, and when it comes, we'll take you to it live across visit comes as a top russian diplomats meantime,
3:05 pm
rounded on mainstream reports that moscow's supposedly amassed 70 percent of its military power needed to invade you grade. another masterpiece of us propaganda war, unnamed officials, undisclosed sources, no evidence, and as b. o. so if you openly question such fakes, you won't get answers and will be labeled, a russian apologist. as mainstream media stories almost opposed, invasion, pile up, native, wretched thing. up forces near russia's borders, a plane carrying pentagon troops and equipment was spotted landing in poland on sunday, near the ukrainian border. a native considering the long term military increases in eastern europe to meantime, britons defenders chief says the u. k. is set to send 350 troops to poland next, but daniel hawkins examines was speed high and the west current obsession with russia invading ukraine. even for those who don't watch the news, reports of a coming russian invasion of ukraine would be hard to miss. we believe that there
3:06 pm
is a very interesting possibility that vladimir putin will order an attack on ukraine . it could take a number of different forms. it could happen as soon as tomorrow, or it could take some weeks yet. we do have information that it is that the russians are likely to want to fabricate a pretext for an invasion, which again, is right out of their playbook. president will welcome the chancellor of germany to the white house and discuss their share commitment to ongoing diplomacy and joint efforts to deter further russian aggression against ukraine. it's been like groundhog day, 3 months of reports, analysis and countdowns of just when moscow will be ready to launch its attack. with me, a daily news stories, it's almost like news headline. bingo reports have ballooned in intensity and in depth initial planes focused on the number of troops moscow moved to the border as
3:07 pm
a weeks went by outlets cited analysts and source is mainly anonymous. of course, in more detail, claiming special forces and equipment, fuel hospitals and even blood bags had been deployed in preparation for an attack. back in january, russian troop bill up was apparently nearly complete. 3 weeks later, us officials say moscow is 70 percent ready for an attack. longer imminent, at least. what in the world does 70 percent? ah mean, i mean it's simply pulled out of the air. there is no possibility that there is anything. there's no mathematical calculation for these things. they just invent the numbers. oh, most people believe whatever they are told. most people have absolutely 0 skills of, of skepticism when it comes to us military announcements,
3:08 pm
military songs, waving flags. so anything that is said and said repeatedly, is the problem. outlets are falling over shop to get the most memorable story, some even having to apologize for jumping, the gun reporting on a non existent war. we prepare headlines for many scenarios on the headline rusher and ukraine. was inadvertently published around for p n e t. today on a website, we deeply regret the error. the headline has been removed and we were estimating the cause. it's safe to say things are pretty hated. lot a day goes by without western leaders threatening russia with di consequences or pledging to deploy extra troops to eastern europe. and what we would see is we would see rushes economy suffer if they were to take an action to invade ukraine. devastating package of sanctions, economic sanctions that would have enormous impact on the russian economy. let's take a step back. so also headlines, really new. apparently the russians have been flexing muscles since last year,
3:09 pm
holdings not drew since 2020, massive forces on the border since 29 team building up weaponry since a year earlier. and threatening nato's border on russia's own territory. the year before that, the list goes on. only rarely g b c. news about mesa forces deployed halfway around the world to russia's own borders and how that might affect relations with moscow, or the banners of power in europe. to be prepared for war is one of the most effectual means of preserving peace, said george washington. and as the most high level talks in years between nato and moscow breakdown and troops support on alerts calls for the escalation, food on death is as the media continue to beat the drums of war. don hawkins reporting 1st. there will the u. s. navy, with threatening new sanctions to, to cut russia from the global financial system if it invades neighboring ukraine.
3:10 pm
but some expert, se, russia's already well prepared for coping with any such measures as the current sanctions of actually spoke renewed criticism from political leaders in europe. same, but they've been detrimental to their own, you economies. russia has made its economy more sanctions proof. it has been building a strong resilience. we must reduce our dependency on russian energy. i have to say that the sanctions policy that has been introduced against russia has done more harm to hungry than to russia. we talk about potential sanctions more with british american investor banker, writer mitchell foster. and he thinks the measures would actually negatively impact the u. s. economy more than intend to target the russian one. i think that the sanctions effected the russian economy. i think that this is more about debt credit and leverage, and i think that most of the western countries are bankrupt. the united states has $300.00 trillion dollars in debt that can't repay $300.00 trillion, not 30 trillion when you include all the liabilities. the balance sheet of russia
3:11 pm
is a lot more solid. so there's a lot more where we're all in terms of russia. so i think the united states, when it gets into a difficult position, the biden needs to start a war or some kind of diversion because he's got 20 percent inflation. people can't afford anything in america, and the economy is about to come crashing down because he has the biggest bubbles in the equity market. the bond market, the property market in history. and this cannot end well because it's way over leverage. the sanctions are not going to help russia, but they're not going to help the united states at all. and it won't accomplish anything. they will get a negative outcome like they have in the past. as the us the you trying to impose new sanctions against russia and deploy more nato troops to eastern europe as we've been talking about. moscow is adamant that such actions are only detrimental to regional stability. talk about that side of it with rushes on. pass that to serbia, he says makes his expansion hasn't brought substantial benefits for the countries that have most recently joined. rashid indian,
3:12 pm
under the expansion of nato to the territories of other balkan countries, does not lead to greater security, but to new contradictions and threats. no one has explained how these countries will benefit from joining nato. there was a lot of speculation that there will be unprecedented economic growth in flows of investments and so on. a specific situations, realities that show that nothing is promised or the attempt to have serbia join anti russian sanctions is more moderate than toward the european union countries. but the policy continues. jaclyn, some of the wealthy stories tonight, fear the mayor of canada as capital cities declared a state of emergency. citing a serious threat to the safety of residence truck drivers, been protesting an auto for a 10th consecutive day of vaccine mandates. a thought is there reportedly detained several people and seeks more than 3000 liters. a petrol was being stored as reserved for the truck as during the year crack down against the protest movement that happened on sunday, on the wrong side of his mom. every time i
3:13 pm
. c so that his homestead to dot few and other materials in an effort drawn and the truck is located, the city has a say which is lost to 10 days. authorities are threatened to arrest anyone providing supplies to those drivers. the protest is reportedly been issued around a 100 citations sofa for disturbing the peace, including using fireworks and causing noise pollution. we spoke to a member of canada, ontario provincial parliament, which includes the city of auto. it says the government's accusations of violence among the protest is a fabricated and that the authorities actions are unconstitutional. no, it's absolutely a also, and it's a fabrication. it's a pretext for what actually our government is doing. this is a very peaceful, friendly, ha, energetic festival in winter carnival that is a 2 purposely distort and fabricate, fabricate that dishes. in any means,
3:14 pm
violet or dangerous is wholly reprehensible part because it does provide them the cover to what you're actually doing. that is, in effect, the to, to talk against our cost attention and removing all the checks and balances, all political and government afford. that's what is happening here in candidate in for many canadians. very, very difficult for many chinese to believe that our government would act in such a reprehensible and such a destructive manual. because the people have kept around a 1000 vehicles and 5000 people. again, flooding downtown or to or on sunday testers and dancing and singing in the street . no trouble was reported. john, honey, was there throughout the weekends o c
3:15 pm
houses for the children, free food and coffee. muse, ah, like a winter carnival, then a protest, but a protest it is for his ottawa, police, and city officials describe it an illegal occupation. this is the main staging area of the broadcast. this is where it all started. some of these trucks have been here from the very beginning, and it's just outside the main gate of the parliament trucker mike johnson says he's been parked outside the parliament gate since january 28th. and has no plans on leaving. we're here because individual or adults should have the authority over there. are there law firms for making their own decisions, especially for their home bus for the body bus drives, many others we talked you agreed. the protest was not only about canada's mandatory vaccination and quarantine rules for truckers. ah, but the countries overall coven 19 restrictions. this is the 1st time in 2 years
3:16 pm
that i've seen an actual future for my children. kevin sergeant says he's a father of 5 from a small town, 2 hours west of ottawa, who along with his friend jordan teal, had been camped out in ottawa's since january 28th. he been giving us a tour of their vehicles, generator and all i can't go to work because a man vaccinated. so i'm a mechanic, i can't go to spirit, go to work for it. i'm also in school to get my license. but because to redeem the schools a non essential service, i can't go to school without a vaccination. it's hard to ignore it. you can hear him all said, is we got everybody's dungeon. the whole world's watch. similar protests have spread throughout canada from toronto to vancouver. and support has come from all over the world, including the united states, donations have all support in to help the truckers and the so called freedom convoy protest. but there's also dissension. that is divided canadian and over this very political fight, the fundraising website, go fund me,
3:17 pm
seized $9000000.00 in donations to the truckers saying the money would be refunded due to what it said was a peaceful protest that has become an occupation. transit stations were closed in downtown ottawa, along with malls and many stores, though some did remain open. still thousands of people streamed into the city, including many families over the weekend to join in the protest. while groups of police officers patrol the streets, volunteers handed out food, water, and other supplies, all the while, truck wars and sirens from corps blaring within a short distance of apartment building. there been reports of some verbal and even physical altercations between protest, borders, and those against it. chad federal runs a trucking company in newbury, ontario about 7 hours from ottawa and says he's traveled back and forth twice. it's january 29th. he says he's been using his trailer for trash disposal. what's the vide been like?
3:18 pm
one of the most positive experiences of my life? thought 5, like everybody here is positive, even most even, most of the cops are too, i'll say that. but ottawa's police chief said his department's resources had been stretched thin and worn, that anyone attempting to bring quote material to support the trucker starting monday would be subject to arrest several questions remain, including how much longer can or will the protest continue, and whether or not the fight over freedom from cannon is vaccine mandates has become a battle of wills. instead. for our t, john had, he demonstrates his mean comedy, central london, a showing solidarity with a truck as protests in canada that a rally they've dubbed the u. k. freedom convoy a corresponding covering that their london shut. it was dusty. well, dozens of truckers have headed from all over the united kingdom. you're right in central london and talking under the banner of the you k. read and called before. and now the movement of course began in canada as you've just had it rolling out
3:19 pm
across the globe and here active as well. they really de monte and all of the vaccine mandate fighting a full freedom. as i say, it's still very much it read the messages is to empower each other. that's basically all the things going on in the world. we're not happy with when we listen to laws, legislation, liberties are being eroded at the moment. why come? because if you go, whoa, the same things happen in every country, you go say, so why is it happening in every country? it's been, it's been too long. and basically we have to have freedom and they're blocking it each way. and the next thing you'll come along and we do the same again, we have to protect our rights. so that's why we're here. it's just about the situation and the countries, the worldwide problem. they tyranny's coming and people are not fully awake. active country around the world are engaging in very similar to their own and wide
3:20 pm
by what's going on in canada. now we know across the lawn, but we just seen as the police are coming very heavy handed using the force of law on that just nation of penalized not today has been from a piece of what we know, that the u. k. movement knows actually seen the police engaging with activists throughout the last 2 months. it is now really with upon deming, but today is not as big as expected. in fact, we were expected to see almost a 1000 truckers reaching this site for central london. i spoke to the very 1st truck driver. she entered down this very, very outside knew scotland yard. and she told me that actually majority of this call has been really outside of with them trying to get into a central london. however, some of them have made it, i've spoken to some people even as far as quarter, which is 7 hours away. so hadn't entirely been a failure to buy any sense of the imagination. but interesting. the state of the
3:21 pm
current political hours are the last $130.00 galvanizing movement, this movement of ally against the government, particularly bars johnson and all his friends engaging and talking on the demo. they use that id as an example, as a reason why you can't trust the government because that was at a time when the government was telling everybody else to follow the rules. and they said they say the roof paid 3 ripped up entirely and you cannot trust the government. as for today though, we've seen many vehicles carrying signs of slogans like no more locked downs, no medical tyranny and freedom over. but one song has been charged throughout the morning and now off to noon, it's that these guys think that they are 99 percent providing online safety for everyone, even if it's a criminals. american cybersecurity company, cloud, fed and is said to be sued by several major japanese publishers who accused the firm of allowing piracy sides to use it services and assess competitor reports.
3:22 pm
it's not the 1st time the companies come on, the 5 for the jack tibbetts he on his platform. millions of websites rely on the u . s. space network to deliver traffic quickly and protect them from threats. but while cow flows eagerly fighting off 70000000000 cyber attacks every day, it seems to be, let's see when it comes to well, principles. all the profits made from those manga piracy sites. go straight to the illegal operators with nothing going to the bookstores publishes and manner artists who have dedicated their lives to creating these works with cloud flat handing out a needle copies for free. those who walk tirelessly on the graphic novels are left millions of dollars out of pocket. so the text joint insist, it's not really to blame, but cow flat is a repeat offender. 82 percent of the legal traffic in the wild goes through it solvers, and it's not only as innocent as stolen among the drawings. no cloud flat has
3:23 pm
proved an oasis from the most hateful in the world. who did it, knowing how his customers for years terror groups, web pages with images of child abuse, stolen payment card details, and new nazi and pro much shooting material. some of the services were only banned by the ceo because and i quote, he was in a bad mood because bother wise, he doesn't see the harm. and having hate speech hanging round a website, his speech is not bon. we do not believe that investigating the speech that flows through our network is appropriate. in fact, we think doing that would be creepy. yes, that's a not take down, but i saw propaganda in case the terrorist got creeped out. never mind you say that's what the norm of government is for. surely the white house, the champion of peace and tolerance, will step in, while the us authority told us to terminate any of them as a customer. we would, when we have a customer who we think might be engage in illegal act, we consult with law enforcement organizations. in some cases,
3:24 pm
we've been specifically ordered not to terminate customers that may from an outside perspective objectionable. so not only is washington clearly not taking action, it's actively choosing to keep shady content alive and kicking as extra reward for cloud flows, turning a blind eye, a giant contract. today, we're excited to share that clerk flare. and accenture, federal services have been selected by the department of homeland security to develop a joint solution to help the federal government defend itself against cyberattacks, the platform. and now both the f. b. i the state department, the department of interior and the library of congress as its clients. so just to be clear, the white house will encourage spotify to monetize jo, rope and podcast. our hope is that all major tech platforms and all major new sources for that matter, be responsible and be vigilant to ensure the american people have access to accurate information on something as significant as cobit 19. that certainly
3:25 pm
includes spot, apply the f b. i will get facebook to hand over the private messages. i. p addresses, phone numbers and email accounts of john you the sick writers. 7 and i say will press telecom companies for data to track uses. washington will ban federal employees from accessing wikileaks on. now, one computers and congressmen investigated the paul app, but cloud flat. well, it gets a free pass on it. c o hits net was of $3700000000.00 while the search engine shows well, these 11 p. m. tonight with me, kevin, in the next program and you'll part of the world after the break. check it out. see, they will come as well as ever for all the rest from us, because the big news are across tonight from his present microns here for edge, and talk to the russian leader regarding the current tensions of ukraine ahead of the trip. mr. chrome told a french newspaper, i believe, a deal of ukraine, of the re, she said russia to write to raise its own security issues. russia's object was not
3:26 pm
ukraine, but a clarification of the rules with ne 2 and the year we said to meet 2 pasco, folk spokesman for president putin temper and expectations for talks on monday. whether be any historic headlines, my, well, they've been talking for 5 hours as soon as that says shed your media conference happens when they finish talking. we'll go straight to it, no matter what we're doing and bring you the latest live here on our t international. ah, with ah ah
3:27 pm
hello and welcome to cross doctor. all things are considered on peter labelle. is this the beginning of the end or the end of the beginning? russian nato are at an impasse. both have presented their visions of pan european security. needless to say, there is no meeting of minds has diplomacy been exhausted? ah, to discuss these issues and more on joined by my guess, glen deason, and also he is a professor at the university of se or norway as well as author of the book, great power politics in the 4th industrial revolution. and in budapest we have george samuel in east podcast to read the goggle, which can be found on youtube and locals. are gentlemen cross up rules and effect, that means you can jump any time you want, and i would appreciate it. ok,
3:28 pm
let's start out with glen glen. as i said in my introduction, um, are we at the end of diplomacy here at the end of negotiations, or is it the beginning of something? because we are obviously at an impasse. we have the leaked reaction to russia's proposal through a spanish media, which probably was intentional. the russians are not happy with it, at least as a reaction, not official reaction to it at this point, but they made it very clear that they're not pleased where we are. where are we here? and has nato really played? it's hammed. go ahead. well, this letter was tor turned from the nato and if not, it states the proposal. so russia has been leaked to see the difference as predictable, which was that nato would deliver a letter which would be very complete. ideological very aggressive,
3:29 pm
say that these are values, principles, ideals, all this is taking their uncompromising stance. but this is again to uphold the oligarchy within the block. so this was necessary. so was always kind of a, given. the response directly from the united states will have more steps to, which is why russia holes or even wanted to discuss directly with the u. s. and even less, you also this whole thing because, well, they can really contribute to anything. so from the united states, i think there was more substantial than substantive answers and something to work on and discuss further. and i think it's moving towards the end overall, the key conflict areas. what is being secured, the russia saying, listen, all the time. they're being agreements being very specific in the visible charity expands here at the expense of us. again, maybe logic sense that, you know,
3:30 pm
we're just the columbus democracies. we saved all of this thing so, so for this reason that even if we expand towards the borders with set up missile systems there, none of this is threatening. we're just looking out there are the margaret so so by the, by their argument. this does not contradict because indivisible security and again, this is also fits why, by within the american or the algae of dividing the world between democracy and the states are legitimate and illegitimate, defensive and authentic states. so this is why you can't really have underpin security agreement under this ideological narrative. so, but it's still some room to speak with americans, but i think it's, there's not much more express you there. yeah, george, you know, and looking at the nato response, forgive me for saying this, but it, they don't really talk much about security. they talk about everything else, don't they? and i don't understand.
