dangerous thing the, the is likely to begin with aerial bombing and missile attacks that could obviously kill civilians without regard to their nationality. while washington vividly depicts what the alleged russian invasion of ukraine will look like, western media speculates on the exact date they think it will happen. russia continues to dismiss all report that's quote, baseless propaganda. prime minister has intentionally stigmatized and divided canadians for political games. canadian politicians accused just intrude on vilifying freedom, convoy demonstrators for his own in the prime mystery is calling the sum of washington's actions, basically a coordinated disinformation campaign against russia. after all, we're seeing, we're being told that russia preparing to invade it, but at the same time, western media outlets can't get their story straight when it comes to the finer

details from one angle. we're hearing from their spiegel woods, which is saying that the invasion is set to come on the 16th of february on the on . and on the other hand, we have bloomberg who's saying it's the 15th of february. so, and all this actually seems to be flowing from washington, putting its citizens and its allies in a state of fear. i mean, without any sort of evidence whatsoever, except basically saying, trust us, anthony blink. and saying that a russian invasion is basically guaranteed to happen around the winter winter olympics in beijing vase could begin at any time during the olympics. any american citizens who remain in ukraine should leave now. now these extreme claims have a cascade effect around parts of the world that are aligned with the west, the european union, the u. k. japan and a lot of other countries are already telling their citizens that they also need to get out of ukraine as quickly as possible. the united states is also saying that it's going to be withdrawing its citizens that are in ukraine. specifically the

o. s. c e mission there in anticipation of a russian invasion. now this is all, despite the fact that russia has not actually been prep, been preparing for an invasion, but has been busy conducting diplomacy all the week. and it really just goes to show that maybe there's some merit to what the lever off said earlier this week when he said that this, these diplomatic talks have been basically like talking to deaf people. both cheryl and tim stu, i'm disappointed that we seem to have dialogues between a mute than a different person. they seem to be listening, but don't hair. almost detailed explanations have fallen on rough ground. they say that russia is waiting for the soil to freeze and become like histone was that tanks compassed safely into ukrainian territory. but it seems that our british colleagues have the same. so today from which numerous factors that we cited of bouncing. now the white house has said it's that biden is set to make an emergency phone call to proven to see, to see if they can work things out. but one has to ask, what's the point of really bringing all of this to this moment,

this hysteria is it to is it for washington to show that it can save the day at the end? i mean, that it kind of seems that way, especially as jake sullivan is claiming that russia's planning some sort of a false flag attack to justify invading. we are firmly convinced that the russians should they decide to move forward with invasion or looking hard at the creation of a pretext, a false flag operation, something that they generate and try to blame on the ukrainians as a trigger for military action. and we're calling that out. now, this isn't actually the 1st time that russia has been accused by the west of planning, some sort of false flag operation. and this also isn't the 1st time that no false flag operation actually happened to actually last week. it was the same story and leverage back then was talking about how the claims that the west is making about rush are becoming more and more delusional. as time goes on and it, it seems like he's right on the money with the recent developments on the one hand,

the u. s. is in hysterics and on the other rushes trying to continue to conduct diplomacy with the western world show who met with the u. k 4 in the u. k. defense secretary. and he is basically laying it out, laying out his cards on the table, saying if the west and russia to get along than the west needs to stop arming, hostile military on rushes border issue, we'd like to propose a step towards reducing tensions and end to pumping off of ukraine with weapons from a brush that's being done publicly and significantly, then it's not entirely clear why. i'd also like to understand why britain has deployed special forces to ukraine and for how long they'll be there. now the last thing i want to mention about the white house is the recent statement was that it said it's trying to prevent war, but perhaps a better way to go about preventing war would be to return to the negotiating table rather than continue to spread hysteria around russian and a potential russian invasion that moscow continues to say. it's not planning.

meanwhile, diplomatic talks continue in an attempt to find a solution to the ongoing conflict in easton ukraine political advisors to the normandy fall group met once again on friday. however, the kremlin invoice had no breakthrough, was achieved to further the minsk peace agreement with more now and all the latest on his romance casa ref, reporting from the self proclaimed republic of finance. the civil war in the east of ukraine began i nearly 8 years ago. and it's already claimed lives of far more than $5000.00 civilians and $91.00 of those killed were children. now it all began back in 2014 after people look gone, scan done. this refused to comply with the outcome of the so called government, who, in the countries capital of ikea. now they were quickly labeled as a separate this by the regime that stared absolutely no time and sense in the troops. now this area home to millions of people is now called an anti terrorist

operation zone. but officials in key of believe that there are at war with moscow associates, good financial. russia has started a war in the logan's and don't ask regents and is now saying nonsensically that we are about to take back lu ganske and don't ask with military force are male and female soldiers will protect our country. thanks to the additional aid that we have received from our partners, we now have enough forces and equipment over the last 3 months. so western lead narrative claim that russia is about to invade ukraine. now, those claims have been refuted by moscow time and again, and the imminent russian invasion hysteria in the western press has even prompted ukraine's president vladimir lensky to try and call the media down. she's accountable. do we have tax on the streets? no. when you read media,

you get the image that we have troops in the city. people fling, that's not the case my on the president of ukraine, and i'm faced here and i think i know the details better here. international efforts to deescalate the conflict in the boss began as soon as the war here began . uminski chords agreed by a key of the self proclaimed republics, germany, france. russia, back in 2015, were designed to stop the bloodshed and find a political solution. however, 8 years on the situation still seems to be at a stalemate. shoe, the situation is absolutely absurd. it shows that almost 8 years since the outbreak of the conflict and 7 since the signing of the minsk agreements. everything was a complete bluff. we are at the point where the clock stopped on march the 9th, 20153 out of 4 participants of the normandy format on not ready to implement the minsk agreements. we discussed with our guests whether the current policies of

western countries to solve the crisis a truly a, that achieving piece i have said all along, but i don't believe russia is going to invade. there's no incentive for it to an invade. however, today i think things have taken a new and very dangerous turn. now, i'm very concerned about this, and let's look at the scenario. the u. s. has now said it wants to pull out it so as the monitors. today, the o. s. the monitors and don bass and counted a 400 percent increase in the amount of shelling over the last 7 days. daily average, 4 times increase in showing. here's the scenario. the u. s. has apparently gotten the other countries several other countries to to have to share the panic and to pull their troops or their, their citizens out. if you pull the o s. c, emission, out of dawn bass, you can have a massive provocation on the part of care of this is potentially dangerous development. u. s. a sounding increasingly desperate, because everything they throw on the wall doesn't stick. well, they don't really lose anything. do they?

because if russia doesn't invade, and russia has said over and over again, it doesn't plan to invade. what it does want is the united states in nature to give some security guarantees to russia about the use of need of nato troops or advanced weapons in ukraine and other words prohibiting that in the future. but if a russian doesn't invade now the united states can say, see, are preemptive actions are unifying actions where all of the nato countries stood together, prevented the russians from carrying out aggression. and at the same time, they continue to paint russia. here in the united states and in western public opinion as the aggressor is the big threat. this is a very clever propaganda device. so it's kind of a win win situation where american propaganda a state of emergency has been declared in canada's ontario province over the continuing free to understand that pain. and we feel in and since we've been here. and since we've had people in ottawa,

the world is on fire right now. everybody's changing. governments are coming together . they're trying to work through this. and that's what we want. the truck has a cane to highlight the grass roots support. they say their protests is getting from many people while at the same time pointing to other provinces such as alberta, saskatchewan, and quebec. while the old i'm starting to roll back their cobra restrictions and vaccine mandates. of the head of the canadian democratic defense association feels people should stand up and defend their freedoms. actually been fighting against this for about 2 years. we've got over 400 organizations that have popped up across canada and everything to do with that. providing n o l. notice of liabilities in order for people to keep their jobs against these ridiculous government dictates, and i'm going to call them dictates because that's what they are by the police coming on our side, it's happening in droves and we, we don't just have the occupation happening in auto we've, we've also got in the economic center here in toronto and at every other legislature building across the entire country. and we encourage,

we encourage more kids to come out and, and stand in support of this. i mean, this is your freedom in your life and our fundamental life, liberty, security property are being infringed upon and it's unacceptable. as the freedom a convoy movement isn't 5 protests all across the world. are people in france many and also austria. and even as far away as australia have taken to the streets all in support of the canadian truckers, they've also been demanding an end to vaccine mandates. the policies and restrictions in their own countries as well. while the canadian government and others come down on the whole freedom convoy, some have noticed the parent double standards and comments by us officials on the truck as movement when compared to their views on that of the violent black lives matter protests. the conway protest applauded by right when media is a freedom protest is an economic and security issue. no slush, the tires, empty gas tanks, arrest the drivers and move the trucks. the ties between black lives matter and the

covert crisis are not just about it's just proportionate impact on minority communities. corona virus exposed to the federal government so morally unsound that protest became as citizens, judy, the blood a poses a risk to supply chains for the auto industry. president joe biden's view is also that exercising 1st amendment rights, and protesting and justice is the most american thing that anyone can do. we spoke with melanie call let the host of the podcast money talks. she's alarmed by how the 2 protest movements are treated so differently. you see a serious hypocrisy when it comes to those that ling left in our mainstream media would be the very same thing. part of all, all part of the say, very same party when black lives matter protested in 2020 after the death of george floyd in many, many cities across the country, burning down over 150 buildings. 24 people i believe were killed during those protests. you did not see the same energy and the same concern about how it was

hurting those neighborhoods and how was hurting how it was hurting the local economies and the state economy. nobody was concerned about that then, but we seem to be concerned about that now. so again, you can see the hypocrisy in those matters. there was, there was every excuse for those protests to be ok. also. no one was concerned about how that what while we were at it, no one was concerned about some very basic things that were going on during those protests. but when conservatives want to protest have actual peaceful protests. then we're concerned about the economy. it's complete apostrophe, and that's why a lot of us have a problem with that. newly declassified but heavily redacted cia documents reveal, the agency has been collecting americans private data. in a previously undisclosed surveillance program that has been capturing a such information apparently for years. now the evidence came to light off the 2

sentences asked the agencies director to d, classify a study into its intelligence gathering. the findings revealed an order by president reagan in 1081 that expanded the power of such agencies. it ultimately allowed the cia to embark on its own bulk collection program. the senator said, reveals an attack on the privacy of the american people. the cia has secretly conducted its own boat program. what these documents demonstrate, he's that many of the same concerns that americans have about their privacy and civil liberties. also apply to how this cia collects and handles information under executive order. these documents reveal serious problems associated with warrantless backdoor searches of americans. we didn't even know about this until the senators accidentally stumbled on it and asked for clarification from the cia and then asked to cia to declassify the letter that they received. so this,

this is something that's so important. it's such a major violation of the law that it has to be reported to the oversight committees . and we know from these 2 senators today that it was never reported to the oversight committees. it was found out about solely by accident for so many years. the congressional oversight committees have been little more than cheerleaders for the cia and the rest of the intelligence community. we don't need cheerleaders. we need adults in the room. we need people who are going to say to the cia, you can't do that, it's illegal. and mean it and make sure that there are consequences to be paid when the c i o breaks the law. we don't really have that aside from these 2 senators today. nobody else has even made a comment or statement. it responds to see, i said it respects the privacy of americans and is committed to that of transparency though the american civil liberties union has actually slammed the agency, calling the blame in the sierra, if of what the court and that of an invasion of privacy,

the while criticism on line will have a look, it's been building very fast. you are about to witness an enormous political debate in which the spy agencies and their apologists on tv. tell you this is normal and ok. and the cia doesn't know how many americans are in the database or even how they got there anyway. but it is not ok. the c, i is a criminal organization. their interference in us politics is particularly pernicious. these reports raise serious questions about what information of ours, the c i a is vacuuming up in bulk, and how the agency exploit that information to spy on americans. this invasion of our privacy must stop former c i a analyst, a john kerry. aku again, feels that public outrage is justified is there apparently no legal grounds for such data collection there is no legal basis. none whatsoever. not only has cia collection been illegal when conducted against american citizens, since the creation of the cia in 1947,

that was reiterated by the church and pike committees in 1975. there are no circumstances where the cia may collect bulk data on american citizens or u. s. persons. there's literally no justification, no explanation within the confines of the law. that's acceptable for something like this. we don't even know what kind of information is being discussed here. we don't know how many americans are affected. we don't know where the information is being kept. we don't know who else has access to it. we don't know what the information is for. for example, does the f b i have access to this database? can it look at illegally collected information on american citizens for the purpose of law enforcement or building a case without a warrant? that's really the most important question here. and the answer is that it shows how we desperately need robust congressional oversight in this country for so many

years. the congressional oversight committees have been little more than cheerleaders for the cia and the rest of the intelligence community. we don't need cheerleaders, we need adults in the room. the quote, whole arbitration for sport says it will announce a decision later today on the case of russian figure skater camila valley ava. she's been embroiled in controversy at the beijing winter olympics this week after it was confirmed. she had tested positive for a band substance back in december. the drug in question is trema testing, which is used to treat hot conditions such as angina. although it can also increase stamina and endurance, hence it's bad for the rushers, figure skating federation as it is standing by its athlete. we do not doubt the honesty of our athlete. this case requires a thorough investigation because this whole wild story raises too many questions. meanwhile, the international olympic committee has said they will help with the investigation

to ensure it proceeds as smoothly as possible and added it will take a stern stance if any cheating is proven. however, one of the concerns that has yet to be addressed is that delay between when the test was taken in december and the results which was only released this week. the world anti doping agency has declined to comment on the delay since the case is quote, under consideration that we spoke with former sports and media. electra ellis cashmore who says the hold up is a bit unusual. it's a suspicious, the long delay, but we don't know whether it's deliberate or not. we may never know whether it's deliberate or not, but this is a very mysterious case. it's political. i mean these insane the political games, the crescent olympics, i mean it's charged with and with a political current and everyone knows that. and i think the days are long gone.

when people said they lympics and politics should be separated. the timing is, is very awkward because it, it look, it may prevent her from competing as an individual athletes. and obviously she wouldn't want that valley ever funds have been quick to offer support to the 15 year old, amid the allegations a russian ice dance. i told my colleague nikki aaron, the valley ever is continuing to train despite the extra pressure. she's now one my experience with my partner with tiffany when we were there. it was only 3 days and we had the stress and everything being there. and i can imagine how difficult it is to be there for such a long time. and with all of the stress of everything going around at the moment, i have so much respect for her so much love. and i mean, we've been on shows together, ice getting chosen just the dedication amount of work she puts in as much as the talent like she is there before. i mean, i think we came like 20 minutes before the show just kind of warmed up

a little bit. she was there preparing training, which is an amazing one thing that's come up in this case has been flagged as peculiar as the how late the results of the test was really strange. it's a long time and there's actually a regulations of how long the the test take to provide. and then it's, it's strange that it's been delayed to such a peculiar taste with so much going on in the media right now. do you think it might be taking a toll on her to such a strong person, such a determined person and even at such a young age? you know, she has the dedication and you can see that she, she's the, she's trading from what i've heard. she's training well, she's probably limited her social media, whatever to kind of not deal with that and just focus on the skating, which is what she is amazing at. i've heard from so many different people around the world. ah, how in spot, how amazing her routines were, and they were really truly memorable. and i think the rabbit,

the remember that nurses in the u. k. her been sacked for daring to question the policy of placing trends, gender patients and single sex wards about s. nicholson made the revelation off of the house of lords ton down her amendment calling for patients to be put in wards according to their birth sex. she was the current policy, threatened weapons, dignity, privacy, and safety. traditionally female patients in the n h. s, and in private hospitals have been allocated beds and single sex wards accommodating only women patients. transgender ism, and i speak as a woman, has undermined that provision with the 21. 900. any guidance authorizing self selection of patient gender on arrival in hospitals. the current disputed national health service guidelines say trans patients should be accommodated according to the presentation, such as the way they dress and the name they currently use rather than that of their biological sex. one senior british health official says the n h. s is trying

to strike a balance between all patients rights the n h f is committed to meeting a suit. he's under the quality act. and as such, needs to give do regard to both those who gender identity is the same as their biological sex at birth. as well as those who are not, this means that the rights and needs of women and trans women are equal in law. we spoke with rights campaign, declared dominion who says the feelings on this su, run very deep. i myself cannot access any just treatment. i have been death for 20 years because i cannot go to the hospital because they will not show male female clinician. i cannot use and they just wards now. i cannot receive treatment and i happened to be re survivors. so this isn't women feeling a little bit uncomfortable. this is female specific rate trauma. and these feelings are actually 100 percent sustained by the united kingdom

governments, ministry of justice transgender, sexual offender data. the only way this can end is by a return to mail wards and female wards. and if there is a problem with my mail trans women in my awards, then the solution is not to put them in shape. my votes, the solution is for them to find another way of dealing with this. and that wraps up this i was news talk to an aussie international thanks for sharing some of your stuff today with us here at moscow. a busy day, it's all rolling out now, many more stories still to come. when we return headlines to start at the top of the hour. hope you join us. ah ah

ah ah, john is not expressing itself and having this willingness to lead time to the coach. china is still trying to learn from others and trying to do business with everybody, particularly with russia, with us, with the, you know, it's not often child nation. and this is something that the whole world needs to

understand. china, history never has this experience of colonization. never has experience of trying to bully others always tried to make friends with them. then i kind of do my veggie and then i get a debit card did come unless you write a letter good. have it up to you the yeah. he had he had you broke up and you know you, me voice you. and then he got in then bulldozer because when i have you damage it it.
