ah, ah, the 5, our meeting between president putin and micron comes to close with the 2 liters focusing on new ways to find stability in europe. meanwhile, in high level talks between the u. s. president and german chancellor joe biden promises to stop russian gas pipeline nord stream to and to implement severe sanctions if russia invades ukraine and another news, canada's capital declared a state of emergency with police threatening to arrest any one providing material support to groups of truckers conducting a blockade with broadcasting large direct from our studios and moscow. this is our international.

i'm john thomas and certainly glad to have you with us are now president putin and president micron have ended their extensive talks in moscow that lasted more than 5 hours to leaders discussed the situation around ukraine, agreeing to work on stability in europe. parties, don quarter reports 5 hours of negotiations between potent and macros. there actually haven't been any major breakthroughs to speak of, and that was something that moscow had expected to begin with. but we did hear that the russian president vladimir putin reiterate, reiterated a lot of points that russia has been trying to make for some months now, specifically connected to russia's proposals for security guarantees. with regard to nato and the conflict in ukraine. the russian president specifically pointed to nato's hypocrisy when it comes to a when it comes to calling itself a peaceful organization. but at the same time, it has accused russia being its enemy and then also refusing to completely exclude ukraine from the military organization. and now, according to the russian president though,

he said that he and micron have come to come up with a few. i will see the results of president microns meeting and keith with us. we have agreed to call and share our opinions after his trip to the ukraine capital. now as for micron, he came to the meeting very optimistic, as he mentioned earlier in the day and at the press conference, the fresh, the french president also said that he was ready to work with russia specifically on the security guarantees that i had had to proposed back in mid december of last year, he mentioned that new mechanisms are necessary though to maintain security in the times that we're living in mission pos, becca. but it is necessary to build new mechanisms that will ensure a stability in the region. but these new provisions cannot be built by revising the treaties of the last 30 years and revising fundamental principles for limiting fundamental european rights use. issues on european security will be in of 8th. now it's also important to note the importance that vladimir putin placed on preventing a war between nato and russia. at the press conference,

he pleaded with western powers that believe that ukraine should still be considered into the military alliance. he pointed out that the current government in kiev is willing to take back crimea by force and rushes willing to defend it. so of a war between those 2 countries in which all of the nato military alliance would be dragged into would be a situation in which putin said there would be no winners. really, i spoke to global policy institute ga, some well a who thinks european states need to step away from us policy to reach agreement with russia. there's really no need for. busy any kind of tension between russia and europe. i think macaroni sees that i think that compromise is possible. 2 if the european members of nato, the leading european members of majors are just runs in germany, move away from the united states and u. k. policy of confrontation with russia, a form of

a non aggression pact might be a possibility. i mean i, i imagine that kind of thing, that macaroni thinking, unfortunately, i think there are many people in the united states who want to use the ukraine crisis to aggravating tensions of russia and do for the confrontation. i think clearly frowns in germany wanted, but the question is then will they have the will to overcome? the u. s. u. k of dewresey. icons visit comes as a top russian diplomat rounded on mainstream reports that moscow's supposedly a master, 70 percent of its military power needed to invade ukraine. another master piece of us propaganda wore 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 on supposedly invasion,

pile up nato is enhancing its presence near russia. playing carrying pentagon troops and equipment was spotted landing in poland on sunday, near the ukrainian border. and nato is also considering long term military increases in eastern europe. meanwhile, britain's defense chief says you will send 350 troops to poland on tuesday. hawkins examines what's behind 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 is a very interesting possibility. the latimer putting 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. 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 most good move to the border. as 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 below was apparently nearly complete. 3 weeks later us officials say moscow is 70 percent ready for an attack. no 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, military songs, waving flags. so anything that is said and said repeatedly, is the problem. outlets are falling over in shop to get the most memorable story, some even having to apologize for jumping, the gun reporting on a non existent war. we prepared headline 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 the muscles since last year. holdings not drew since 2020, massive forces on the border since $29.00 team building 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 do b. c news about may. so, forces deployed halfway around the world to russia's own borders and how that might affect relations with moscow, or the balance of power in europe. to be prepared for war is one of the most effectual means of preserving peace. said george washington. at the most high level talks in years between mesa 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, the u. s. and the you are threatening new sanctions to cut russia off from the global financial system if it invades neighboring ukraine. but some experts say russia is already well prepared to cope with any such measures as the current sanctions have sparked renewed criticism from political leaders in europe, who say, in fact, they have 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 discussed the potential sanctions with british american investor banker and writer mitchell firestick. he thinks the measures would negatively impacts the u. s. economy more than their intended target. russia . i don't 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 as $300.00 trillion dollars in debt. that it can't repay 300 trillion. not 30 trillion when you include all the liabilities, the balance sheet of russia is a lot more solid, so there's a lot more wherewithal 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, margaret, in history. and this cannot end well because it's way over. leverage to sanctions are not going to help russia, but they're not going to help united states at all and it won't accomplish anything . they will be get a negative outcome like they have in the past as the u. s. and you threatened to impose new sanctions against russia and deploy more nato troops to eastern europe.

moscow is adamant that such actions are only detrimental to regional stability. we discussed the issue with russia's investors to serbia. who has nato's expansion has not brought substantial benefits for the countries that have most recently joint really need not. the extension of to the territories of the bull can country does not lead to greater security, but to new contradictions and threaten, you know, one of explain how these countries who benefit from joining nato. there was a lot of speculation that there will be unprecedented economic growth inflows of investments and so on. their specific situations. reality show that nothing is promise or the attempt to have serbia join. anti russian sanctions is more moderate than toward europe in union countries. but the policy continues. meanwhile, other high level talks have ended in washington with joe biden meeting german chancellor of shoulds. the discussions coming pressure on berlin to take a tougher stance on russia with the 2 leaders discussing the sanctions that would

be imposed if russia were to go into ukraine and the future of the stall gas pipeline between russia and germany and a press conference following the talk to us president reiterated that north stream to would not proceed if moscow toughened its position on the grand border. this russian bay, so that means tanks from troops crossing the on the border of ukraine. again, then there will be we, there will be no longer a nor stream to we, we will bring it in. when we heard from the german chancellor and the u. s. president, they emphasized that the countries were working together in lock step as members of the nato alliance. now they also spoke about alleged russian aggression. never clarifying what this aggression actually was, but saying that germany, any i'd states were cooperating against it. and then from there, as we can recall,

no conversation about the ukraine crisis is ever complete without references, duty nor does dream to pipeline and talk about the natural gas markets and natural gas costs. here is how that issue was handled. we're looking at opportunities to make up for lost cash flow, and g from russia were on their way of 2 and a half. see what we can do to do that dealing with our friends around the world as well. we think we could make up a significant portion of it that would be launched for to the energy mix. today we're talking about one quarter of energy that is linked to gas. and only part of that gas comes from russia. big parts come from netherlands and of course it's very important to us that we develop the infrastructure that will give us the opportunity to have all options available and reactive. nita so you don't have to be concerned. there are some have, have to be concerned who see themselves too much as a deliver of such resources done. now jen, saki, the white house of spokesperson,

gave remarks, basically saying that the situation and the way this crisis escalator deescalate, is all up to rush out of the ball is all in russia's court. as the united states continues to allege that russia is somehow planning an invasion of ukraine, this is what jen khaki sat and said yesterday, and much more likely than war. knology folders that yesterday, that day. can you help us where the difference here? why there still seems to be such a dark star different there's nothing for us for pursuing a 2 track approach which includes deterrence and diplomacy. but that we are ready either way for whatever decision president putin might make. and we don't have a new assessment of, of his decision and where he stands on it. now, russia has made clear they have no intention of invading ukraine. there have been issues raised about security guarantees. when we heard from the chancellor,

germany in the president united states, they discussed issues about the nature of the nato alliance. the cooperation between the 2 countries, economic relations. many looked on and heard what many were thinking might be a little bit more of an eventful press conference i, but it seemed like pretty routine remarks that we heard from the 2 leaders of the nato countries. we discussed the issue with your asia center, vice president, earl rasmussen, who highlighted who he thinks would suffer the most from any sanctions if they came into play. fear of potentially would be hurt more by these for sanctions and russian and russia would probably do counter thanking. justifiably, go to new also, nor tremendous for me would have been with the initiative to do this. they would have a cancellation fee. it's all, i'm sure is liabilities related to that, jeremy. so it'll be

a big loss to the german economy. we don't have the l and g to actually provide minor standards, not sufficient supply of gas anywhere in the world to make up what's provided through through russia. and as far as the cost, the price would be extremely, even if you did replace the supplies coming from the pipeline, it to be streamlined costly. i don't think russia has any. right. so it's mostly may know you pay in the us that are the ones that are advocating in basin. ah, now the mayor of candidate capital city has declared a state of emergency stressing that an ongoing protest is a serious threat to the safety of residence there. the wrong you don't have the. c police compensated fuel and other materials on sunday in an effort to end

a 10 day blockade by truckers with authority threatening to arrest anyone providing them with supplies. we spoke to a member of candidate ontario provincial parliament, which includes the city of ottawa. he says the government's accusations of violence are fabricated and the authorities actions unconstitutional. no, it's absolutely all sync it's a fabrication. it's a pretext for what's actually our government, assuming this is a very peaceful, friendly, energetic festival and winter carnival that is happening a to purposely distort and fabricate fabricate dishes. in any means bonded or dangerous is wholly reprehensible. but it does provide them to cover to what you're actually doing. and that is, in effect, the to, to talk against our constitution and removing all the checks and balances on,

on political and government for to that's what is happening here in captivated and for many canadians, very, very difficult for many counties to believe that our government would act in such a reprehensible and such a destructive metal. it has to keep with kennedy the freedom conway began in the final week of january as a demonstration against vaccine mandates for truckers, but it is morphed into a protest against broader public health measures. canada has one of the world's highest rates of vaccination against coven 19, and the restrictions have been broadly supported. john honey was in the country's capital, throughout the weekend for us. oh, found she houses for the children? free food and coffee music? ah!

we're like a winter carnival then a protest, but a protest it is, or is 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. chucker mike johnson says he's been parked outside the parliament gates since january 28th and has no plans on leaving. we're here because individual adults should have the authority over their law for slower making their own decisions as best for their home bus for the body muscular d'oeuvres. many others we talked you agreed. the protest was not only about canada's mandatory vaccination and quarantine rules for truckers. ah, but the country's overall coven 19 restrictions. this is the 1st time in 2 years 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 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 school, go to work for it. i'm also in school to get my license. but because trudeau deem the school's 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 of all support and to help the truckers and a so called freedom convoy protest. but there's also dissension. that is divided canadians over this very political fight, the fundraising website go fund me, sees $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. sirens from corps blaring within a short distance of apartment building. there been reports of some verbal and even physical applications to protest borders and those against 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 over one of the most positive experiences of my life? top 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 have been

stretched thin and warned that anyone attempting to bring quote material to support the truckers 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 canada's vaccine mandates has become a battle of wills. instead. for r t john honey, demonstrators in central london are showing solidarity with the truckers protests in canada at a rally. they have dubbed the u. k. freedom convoy our correspondence shut. edwards da, she explains, well, sounds of truckers have headed from all over the united kingdom. you're right in central london and under the banner of the you, k read and cotton for another movement, of course began in canada as you've just had it rolling out across the globe. and here, activist, well they really demolish and all of the exactly mandate, particularly fighting a full freedom. as i say,

it's still very much at risk. the message is to empower each other. that's basically it does 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 wo, the same things happening in every country, you go say so why is it happening in every country? it's been too long. and basically we have to have freedom and they're looking at each way. and the next thing will come along and we're doing the same again. we have to protect our rights. so that's why we're here. it's just about the situation in the countries, the worldwide problem, the tyranny's coming people are not fully awake. active in several countries all around the world are engaging in very similar to their ruling wide by what's going on in canada. now we know across the lawn, what we need is the police are coming very heavy handed using the force of law

legislation to penalize thought. not today has been some a piece of what we know that the u. k. movement. ready knows actually seen the please with activists throughout the last 2 months. it is not 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 fast truck driver as 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 the central london. however, some of them have made it, i've spoken to some people even as far. ready as school, which is 7 hours away, so it hadn't been finally been failure to by any sense of the imagination. interesting, the state of the current political paradigm, the last name is really galvanizing movement. this movement of will lead to the

gangs that government particularly bars. johnson and all his friends engaging in talking to the con they use that i did that example as a reason why you call them because that was a time when, because it was telling everybody else to follow the rules. and they said they say the rubric 3 ripped up entirely and you cannot trust the government for today that we've seen many vehicles carrying signs with slogans like no more lock downs, no medical tyranny and freedom over. but one song has been charging throughout the morning and now off to noon is that these guys think that they are that 99 percent news just in that we are keeping track of right now. a strong fire has engulf several buildings in a major city and rushes far east. take a look in the images, you can see fierce flames and fix, smoke billowing from the sight of the blaze. this isn't what it was. talk next to a construction site and a market now firefighters are working to contain the fire. no news yet as to

whether there are any casualties. but you can see it is an active situation. our new team is keeping across it. and as more information comes in, we will get that to you, of course. right, that does it for me this hour. i will be back with your headlines and let's say 34 minutes you're watching are to international students. on the i look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings, except where such order that conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence, and the point obviously is to create a truck rather than fear a job with artificial intelligence,

real summoning with a robot most protective own existence with with with bring you the very latest every out the day. this is out, he's now snow from everyone. here with her is your media reflection of reality

in the world transformed what will make you feel safe for hi solution for community. are you going the right way or are you being that somewhere direct? what is true is great in the world corrupted. you need to descend ah, to join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. ah, with

methods boom, but the one business show you care to coordinate number and to board. and i'm rachel blevins in washington, counting up the 1st meeting between president biden and germany. new chancellor take place here in washington. as the president of france travels through russia will break down the latest, talked, and what they could mean for geo political tension. flash, washington fight against top chinese telecom giants continues, but it's going to cost a lot more than the $2000000000.00. the sbc originally budgeted full breakdown the latest number with the tech fee. here are global correction fears in the sector warranted. well, later on we discussed the industry 3 about after metas historic law got a lot to get to let's go.
