hello saturday. the 19th of february, just to mid day here in moscow. i'm calling brian, these are the big stories we're across for you. this, our 1st that women, children and the elderly, being evacuated from the self proclaimed dumbass republics in eastern ukraine. it's after officials, they're born that cubes, military could attack them at any moment. men are being told to stay and ordered by leaders there to take up arms to defend the homeland conflict and ukraine's turbulent east is intensified in recent days. with both sides reporting frequent shelling across the front line. residents are evacuating to russia. fire organized buses and trains or in their own vehicles, lead to risk. we're going to russia running away from the shelling with my wife and our daughter and granddaughter. i hope they'll meet us and receive us, which it really hurts. i don't want to leave. we are worried about every thing. we are very worried our entire family is going to rush at 5 people with

her. there's such tension here in the morning. there was an explosion again, let's hope for the best russians don't abandon their own, the self proclaimed, and yet can go hand for public silicates in east and ukraine on the border with rushes roast of region. the breakaway republics declared independence after western backed uprising over through the government and key f in 2014, about mark the beginning of an ongoing conflict between the self proclaimed republics and nearby cave controlled territories. these are some of the long queues . hundreds of cows long waiting to cross the border from east and ukraine into russia. the boater authorities rody, allowing traffic to go one way into russia to accept the flame civilian square camps have been prepared for the refuge. who looked at this again agatha, when the sirens started, the police warned us who knows what will be there. we don't know, we didn't decide to stay. we left everything our home, our belongings were flow. our street was shelled back in 2015 and many residents left. we hope to return

a we hadn't even reached the border and our compatriots called and said they were being bombarded. then we started crossing the russian border and there was another call from a woman's husband. she asked him what's going on over there. and he said it's already started. she told him to go quickly into the basement and don't leave it on the trains with a vacuum. he's starting to arrive in russia. 10 trains with 10 carriages each is scheduled to cross the border from ukraine to russia. roast of region over the next 24 hours will. so i'll see from on closer f as in east to cry. we are in the streets of funds. annette square, it does seem a relatively calm, but on the outskirts of the city, heavy shelling continues and the head of the nest people's republic had already announced that mobilization for all men to join the army and starts protecting their motherland. this is what he said. a little bit earlier in the day when he issued his decree,

buck rama books and letting it of them no matter what scenario develops, we will be able to fend off key of aggression. we must unite all our efforts. i urge my fellow countrymen who are in reserve to come to the military commerce, sorry, it's to day i signed a decree. on general mobilization, i ask all men of the republic who are able to hold a weapon in their hands to stand up for their families. their children, wives, and mothers, heads of bold, self proclaimed republics of legacy can, than that call them their people to evacuate to russia as soon as they can to save their lives. we are right now at one of the meeting points where evacuation is taking place earlier in the morning, at least a 100 people left from this place alone butts had total number of people who evacuated to the real stove region now stands at at least 30000 this is what one of the buses loosed like people. i have their belongings with them. they are taking their pets. all that they can. now this evacuation is as certainly, ah temporary, but so people believe that they will be able to return to their homes very soon.

now spoke to some of those people a little bit earlier in the morning. and this is what they said. let's see of the world i am seeing off my sister, my mother and nephew, so there's pain in my heart. we will fight back, we will be invincible. i know that russia will not let us down. we will always be with them by heart and soul will lose the child. goodness, i'm a russian man. my wife and child are leaving to russia. we men stay here, of course, if necessary. we will defend our country, our city, our home, and the most important thing is that everything will be fine with my family there. while the buses i hear and waiting for those people who wants to vacuum its a rush, the situation on the front line had intensify the representative of the peoples militia, the self proclaimed on its republic, issued a statement earlier saying that a power station and a watering plant had been damaged by shelling and that threatens water supply. 2,

nearly 2000000 people living in 40 towns on both sides of the conflict. now the always c wanted certain mission are also recording a cease fire violations. and of this is their statement from a little bit earlier in the day. in recent days, the ofc special monitoring to ukraine has observed a dramatic increase in connecticut to vittie along the contact line in east in ukraine. equal to the numbers of cease fire violations reported before the july 2020 agreement on the measures to strengthen the cease fire took effect once they reach russia. evacuees will have all of their needs taken care of that will be provided food and shelter. in addition to that, russia's federal government has already sent an aid package to the government of earl stuff region in the amount of 5000000000 roubles. that means that each of the evacuees will also receive an amount of for $10000.00 roubles. that's equivalent to about $130.00 u. s. dollars from one culture of the internet for

a while across the atlantic. the u. s. president, given a news conference on ukraine saying pretty much the same as he has before in recent weeks. despite the shelling on the territory of the break away republics, joe biden says it's key abs, government, that's the victim of russian aggression. adding against that a full scale invasion is still eminent. over the last few days, we've seen reports of major uptick in violations of the ceasefire by russian back fighters attempting to provoke and craned in the dom boss. we also continue to see more and more just information be pushed out by to the russian public, including the russian back separatists, claiming that ukraine is planning to launch a massive offensive attack in the dom boss. look, there is simply no evidence. these assertions in a devise defies basic logic. a russia said multiple times that it's not planning an offensive in ukrainian territory, although several russian officials did say moscow would do everything possible to

defend civilians. if you crane use it, it's army to resolve the conflict. the russian defense ministries also been releasing videos of trends returning to their bases off the concluding military drills and table campaign of david swanson shed his thoughts with some ukraine crisis. you have to take everything as a lie until proven honest when you're dealing with war propaganda from anybody but in particular from the u. s. government. whereas we know a couple of weeks ago, a reporter for the 1st time asked for the slightest bit of evidence of any of these claims and was, was just not understood. and they didn't even comprehend the idea of providing evidence for their claims. you can have a proposal as we just had this week in the, in the united states, from the president, for the biggest military budget ever with the enemy being a couple of provinces of ukraine. it has to be russia. even china doesn't do that, doesn't do enough. it has to be the russian enemy, people understand russia as an enemy. they've understood it since 1917, you know,

and in this is, this is what is not coming through in u. s. media is that there is not an equivalence here. this is on the border of russia. it's not on the border of the united states in the united states would be making the exact same demands. russia is, if the roles were reversed, are us intelligence sources have been quoted in the washington post saying the russian pullback from ukraine's border is just a ruse to, to see the west? well, secretary of state antony blank and says moscow's planning a chemical attack. although we haven't backed up with any evidence ortiz, but i guess the of explains in years past when up was up and down was down. classified intelligence was just that it was classified. so secret available to, to presidents and secret services. but that was then, it's just fashionable. now, the united states and its allies has new intelligence that russia could launch an attack on ukraine. before the end of the olympics,

we have intelligence that indicates that partners preparing for, for some kind of an invasion. the intelligence we're seeing today is, is still more encouraging. us intelligence says that it has information that russia is preparing what's known as a false flag operation to create a pretext for another invasion of ukraine. u. s. officials have obtained intelligence that rushes announced military pullback from ukraine's border was a deliberate ruse to mislead the united states and other world powers. for officials said thursday, we have seen no evidence that russian forces are withdrawing from ukrainian border regions. russia retains a significant military presence that can conduct an invasion without further warning. you must have seen them dozens, perhaps hundreds of maps drawn by the pres, showing how russia would invade ukraine. men, december, then january, now, february. and everyone seems to have drawn them and dated them based on classified

reports. they have come up based on intelligence of course, with the most fantastic scenarios, it could be a fabricated so called terrorist bombing inside russia. the invented discovery of the mass grave. a stage drone strike against civilians or a fake even a real attack using chemical weapons. some have called into question or information . but let me be clear. i am here to day, not to start a war, but to prevent one. in the past, they say we were wrong repeatedly, but trust us this time just trust us. we remember when american officials lied about ethnic cleansing in yugoslavia, village used to launch a bombing campaign on yugoslavia. we will remember when colin powell wave deval around evidence of saddam's weapons of mass destruction. they assured us. and now

they want us to believe that they not only know how. but when i sat here for an invasion, could began a major military action could begin by russia and ukraine any day. now that includes this coming week before the end of the olympics, it would be pertinent if he hadn't been saying the same thing for every week. for 3 months, if west, that media hadn't been turned into a loudspeaker for war, hysteria, which it has. and people everywhere have noticed, even the word classified has lost its luster. though you talk about intelligence, i think actually these and lots of gems from, from deeply sensitive asia reporting. this is that what has been released the, the, the, the idea that i'm pushing might want to dislodge zalinski and replacing with a puppet government. these have based on a, on a growing understanding analysis of preaching rather than deep secret intelligence

reports. these words, intelligence snakes, anonymous sources they are all supposed to evoke, you trust. big people are saying this, i ought to trust them. it isn't just a news anchor reading off a prompt. it's, it's intelligence. someone intelligent must have had a role in putting it together. the sad fact is any classified report that the media is fed was intended for the media. it was intended to be parroted and to be spread to make people believe. but they over used it. and the most remarkable thing has happened. people have finally caught on. most people observe this country, know that you really can't trust what the united states so says in terms of its foreign policy. we are pretty notorious for doing whatever we want and saying whatever we need to say to get what we want, we just don't have any evidence to support what the state department and what joe

biden is saying. usually when the united states foreign policy establishment, the bid for the defense department when they are seeking war or conflict and they're seeking to generate support for that. oftentimes we will be provided evidence of some kind even if it's fake evidence. so, you know, the access to faked satellite imagery, we're not even being offered that to support some of these allegations. you know, well, one of the big things is, you know, the defense department has put forth its budget request. they want $800000000.00 to operate, and this is during a time of peace in a, in a time of economic crisis from the united states. and i think it helps to justify their budget position. i'm oscars repeatedly highlighted that the westbrook a promise to not expand nicer to the east towards russia's borders. an agreement between the us, britain, france, and germany was recorded in 1991 document on the security of eastern europe. but the current nato secretary general believes that no one in the 1990s make promises

to russia about the non expansion of nato to the east. it simply doesn't correspond to the truth. such a promise has never been made. there has never been such a behind the scenes deal. this is simply not true. the document refers to a meeting of senior american and western european diplomats in bonn on march. the 6th 1991, focusing on the security of poland and other eastern european states. a poland and hungary signaled their interest in joining nato. but the u. s. and other members of the time considered that unacceptable, the german representative said in the document that the alliance would not expand beyond central europe's albert river, which the u at agreed to. a senior german diplomat at that time, ville verma says they were seeking cooperation among european powers. i'm in a special situation here because in december 1989 i sent chancellor helmut kohl. the statement on the bundles were in nato and nato in europe, which was completely incorporated into the treaties on re unification. at that time,

we were well aware of the problems we are facing today. that is why there was a german decision not to station nato troops on the territory of the former east germany. and to start nato near the river odor. we will oriented towards moving very cautiously towards eastern europe with the european community and towards cooperation with all of them. but this policy of germany in the european community in general was reversed by the famous wolf of its doctrine. in 1992 when hands dietrich ganja had to leave as foreign minister, the eastward enlargement of nato began. since then, we have been on the wrong track, contributing to the justified impression in the russian federation of the west is doing everything to kick the russian federation out of europe to build a new wall between the baltic and the black sea. and to be interested in the destruction of russia and not in cooperation with this great country on that, his presence is not any unwelcome near russia's borders said so,

so causing uproar from locals on the italian island of sicily, the furious of the alliance, his life fire drills or damaging the mediterranean shoreline practice shillings left craters in the landscape at the point to be on good nature reserve. and environmentalists say the drills of had a devastating effect on the ecosystem that with vibrations from the explosions cause in coastal erosion. local say they've been trying for years to get the military to stop practicing in the area onto another headline, news and canadian authorities of launched a crackdown on the freedom convoy demonstrators. hundreds of officers in riot gear, some carrying automatic weapons broke up crowds in the capital. distressing video being shed online shows mounted police forcing their way through, protested ah, [000:00:00;00]

with blue. oh, i. 7 protested, resisting arrest were forcefully taken away by offices with several pin to the ground before being handcuffed among them. movement organizes the interim. all to a police chief confirmed the dozens of arrests were made during the clear out we began making arrest the key individuals who were responsible for organizing these unlawful activities this morning, public order units and a significant number of officers were deployed to support our operations. as of 3 pm today, we've arrested 70 people. they have been charged with a multi with multiple various offenses,

including mischief. work is underway by the city of ottawa to remediate and clean up the area that we've gained back today. freedom come very organized. rick bull believes the government's actions violate canada's democratic values. it's very disturbing to see where a federal government has taking this and you know, and bolting in the emergency for simply having hundreds of thousands of people peacefully protesting in this country is the exact opposite of what a democracy should look like. with our movement, we're showing a prime example of how a free democracy should work and to be able to practice the right, the peaceful protest when it comes to not being democratically correct. i think that our, our, our federal government is, is showing a prime example of that there that they've denied so many of our rights the last couple years. and now that the people have taken action and thing enough enough,

because because our provincial and federal leaders, you know, they wouldn't stand with the people over the past couple years. now that you know, we're practicing our, our race a piece of protest. that's the one last freedom that we feel we have left in this country and now even not to be stripped away from us. so it's very concerning and i'm very disturbing. opposition lawmakers branded prime minister just in for jo, a dictator. early this week of the he triggered the emergency act to clamp down on the protests reporting next. his kind of morbid but truck drivers of canada have been protesting for quite some time. and now the prime minister is bringing the hammer down, while local government in ontario has lifted many of the restrictions. the federal government of canada, led by justin trudeau, the prime minister is invoking emergency powers. bank accounts are being frozen. leaders are being arrested. now, amid all this unrest, justin trudeau seems to blame every one but himself for things getting out of hand

. first to blame the protesters, if you join the protest, because you're tired of coven, you now need to understand. you are breaking laws, the blockades and occupations are illegal. they're a threat to our economy. they're a threat to public safety. second, to blame other canadian politicians in an epic flop. justin trudeau singled out a jewish member of parliament saying they to poor people with swastikas conservative party members can stand with people who wave swastikas. they can stand with people who way. i am a strong jewish women and a member of this house in the descendant of holocaust survivors. and i have never made to. it's never been singled out and i have never been made to feel less except for today. when the prime minister accuse me of standing with swastikas, i think he owes me an apology. i'd like an apology and i think he owes an apology to all members of this house. and there has been an opportunity for trudeau to

blame someone else across the border. as in the usa, support for the freedom convoy has been growing figures in the republican party has been critical of the mandates implemented over here. see the freedom trucker convoy as heroes and they want essential workers in united states. it seems to follow their lead. and i get to say those canadian truckers are awesome. ok. and they're fighting for american freedom in a way we all should be doing the canadian truckers are standing up for freedom. i think it is powerful to watch. it is an incredible brown swell. it's in organic ground swell from the people like the canadian truckers are standing up not just for the freedom of canadians but for the freedom of americans. i support truckers because of the important role they have in our society delivering all our goods that we need to survive. but also because truckers are peaceful patriots who have the ability to enter tyranny through peaceful protest. now just internet has been playing up before and funding of the protests,

but what's not being pointed out is that a lot of this money isn't coming from big conservative foundation. what from private citizens? now the emergency powers act that trudeau is invoking gives him the ability to freeze bank accounts and cut off the funding as the protest is shut down. if you are a member, you know, approach our movement to donating hundreds of thousands of dollars and millions of dollars to this kind of thing. then you ought to be like, it's not only conservative. some leftists are speaking up in support of workers on the job taking action against what they see as an unfair regulation. however, canadian officials see this as a routing protest that must be brought to an end. trudeau is yet to admit that anything he has done managing the country's ends coded as in any way contributed to the burning anger. the world is now watching on the streets of ottawa, if financial institutions, if banks at possibly payment processors become aware of people who are

perhaps donating to the go find to be or have donated who might be providing financial resources in support of this initiative. the truckers protest they could be given permission, they are given permission essentially to freeze those accounts. or it is designed to ensure that people who are actively protesting are unable to continue their protest from a material perspective. not having access to your fun. it makes it very difficult to survive day to day. there is a system of surveillance and policing offered by the contract regulation. the government has been able to exploit in a very creative and unforeseen way using it in this way. especially if it is allowed to continue, will offer the government a much more tidy and less visible way of bringing protests to heal. then

we have seen it historically with the police. i think that this is undemocratic and heavy handed, and i think it is a poor use of the emergency act by the federal government to bring in otherwise legal protests to an end. the way that this has been handled is contrary to our tradition of democracy. ah, on a snapshot of, of really on the american public's minds swollen more concerned about drastically storing inflation than they are about rising crime, or even the coven pandemic. according to a new poll, it's just at the u. s. a course is grappling with its highest inflation of 4 decades than that seen of the most urgent issue for the public with more than a quarter saying so in the survey and almost 60 percent of americans say the economy is getting worse on the joe biden. economist and also jeffrey tucker, says inflation is politically disastrous for the democrats empower. i think that the inflation right now is a major cause for the unpopularity of the party that is in power. and we have one

party in power in the presidency in the house and the senate, and they are bearing the brunt of all of this, even though none of them know what to do about it. so it's something like an emerging political disaster for the democrats. you know, the thing that's a little bit shocking about all this is that we had been promised by all the usual suspects last year that this to him flesh was rate was temporary, it was going to go away and everything would be fine. but that is clearly not the case. some prices are just going crazy. him and his gasoline random price increase . you never know it's kind of become more expensive. you go to the store, your shock to the grocery bill costs 20 percent more. depending on what you buy, some things or become unaffordable, there's reports of people having to chain meet down and put anti theft protections on, on beef. so this is, you know,

this is becoming more common. everything you're seen right now. traces to that initial locked down, which is supposed to be 2 weeks to flatten the curve. and it's turned into 2 years to flatten the american economy and flattened the american household finances to critics, jo biden's, failure to properly address the issue has undermined his presidency. americans of express deep concerns about rising prices for a while now with many struggling to put food on the table. biden's asked the federal reserve to fix the problem and it's expected to raise interest rates in the coming months. economists, richard wolf says the american economic system has reached a dead end. this inflation comes after a 2 year period. that in many ways has been the most difficult for working class. people in american history over 80000000 have been unemployed for some period of time over the last 2 years, some for only a few weeks. others for a long time. in other words,

every family in the country has been hurt financially and economically over the last 2 years. that's the reality for them. now. when they thought maybe the worst was behind them to be hit with an inflation that is as bad as any we've had for at least the last 40 years makes this an urgent economic and political and ideological prices for the biden administration. mr. biden's program is as risky in what it proposes to do about the inflation as the inflation is likewise, a risk. it is, there's no way to get away from this. the american economic system has reached out kind of dad end. okay, those are some of the big developments for to cross for you this weekend at our tea from moscow. i'm calling bryan,

we had to update you again in around 31 minutes. see them with with bring you the very latest every out the day. this is are now snow fun. everyone had home with with

will it's almost stopped raining. mr. mackenzie murray's taking his sweetheart to a nearby carry o cuba then with his mom just a 2nd with with
