12:02 pm
if it will say to civilians were killed when a call was hit. one anti tank myself. well, it's exclusivity also shows or theory fire hating. don't ask. local authorities say 3 civilians have been killed by the queen and military over the last 24 hours, or artes, or gas the is in the region. this is the aftermath of an apparent car bombing that recently happened in the guns city. devastated during the war 7 years ago. violence has come anew to the separatist republic to the city. and the outskirts is another village that was hit over the course of this violent night, say $122.00 millimeter mortar round here, the bits of shrapnel that caused all this damage. cutting down power lines as well as blowing out windows in nearby house. as this happened again in the very early
12:03 pm
hours of the morning in these village, ironically named mary mountain locals are terrified when this ukrainian shell landed in the middle of their village. many were hiding in the basements, which may have saved their lives. no people were hurt, but the family dog wasn't so lucky. you can see 2 wounds in its head, a piece of shrapnel, apparently that went into either. it's on the back of the head and came out of the other side, given conditions. here are the violence and the lack of money from people here. the villages it is unlikely that this dog is screwing to get any help. this is the harsh reality of war. at cheapens the value of life and made fear and terror, people turn in woods, survival rather than charity or mercy becomes the priority. now they have been
12:04 pm
usually hot and let him do they have no decency why till people are dying on the other side. and we feel bad for them. my grand daughter and son are there, and were being attacked hair, they behave like animals. it might make more sense if there was a military base, has some, so just the dest, nobody but pensioners accomplish that. why do you think they doing this out of hatred? these level of violence stretches for hundreds of kilometers. the entirety of the front line is a fire near by. 2 civilians were reportedly killed when a guided missile fired from the ukrainian side, struck their vehicle, hours apart. an explosive device apparently went off at the lou ganske, tram depot with such force that thousands awoke in the middle of the night. people are exhausted physically and psychologically wasted by 8 years of war. and
12:05 pm
so it goes on the violence and shelling in bombardment. it dulls at times, only to start up again with renewed ferocity. and there is no end in sight. diplomacy so far has failed. every one on tuesday, the federation council rushes up, a house gave the president permission to use military forces abroad to conduct a so called peacekeeping mission. but in have hooton's that it didn't mean troops would be deployed immediately. that decision bruton says will depend on the situation on the ground, or you train is blast, or the decision calling it an act of aggression. ukraine's president vladimir zalinski has said diplomatic relations with russia. could be 7. i mean, while russia has started evacuating, east of pneumatic star from ukraine is as confirmed by the russian embassy. and here it says its staff of increasingly become targets of aggressive actions, including threats of physical violence. here you can see minivans leaving russia is
12:06 pm
diplomatic mission. in kia now the u. s. president joe biden says russian forces are now in the dumbass and at the start of an invasion. oh the leader of the don't ask people's republic says there are no russian troops in the region nati stroman. causative reports from been asked hello, this was a denise purcell and sir 1st press conference or a massive press conference after the announcement self recognition of the next people's republic by a russia. well, he started by saying that he still can believe that this historical decision was made and it's so still kind of, i think in, in on there were many journalists and the press conference. i included in a local russian and a foreign media as well as denise pushing replied, that's a russian army is not present in finance people's republic. however, he added that they could be here if they were needed, and that's in accordance with the agreement, signed or with russia on the 21st of february,
12:07 pm
he added also in his bushland that sir denis people's republic will use any opportunity for peace as long as soon as it presents itself, and indeed it's been far from mark wyatt here on the front lines, the ins and escal to the last a few days. so denise bushland said that ukraine had started using multiple rockets, launching systems, and they're also always c montessori mission. have confirmed that sees fire violations have been taken place or over the last few days and those allegations are all denied by official authorities in ah, key of for now, denise bushland ended. so the press conference by saying that says this war must be ended as soon as possible, and the rebuilding of the economy should start and the improvement of peoples lives as well. british lawmakers are considering further sanctions against russia over its recognition of threats can against republics, the 1st batch targeted 5 banks and several wealthy individuals. now this channel is
12:08 pm
in the following line. charlie, edward darcy has the latest. well o t is in the spotlight here in the united kingdom for 2nd day in a row. that's because m p 's calling for this very tunnel to be taken off as spearheading that campaign is the leader of the opposition to kids star huh. and in his words, r t, a c, as putin's personal propaganda tool. and he's accusing its gentleness of spouting, disinformation. russia today is his personal propaganda. i can see no reason why it should be allowed to continue to pro cost in this country. so will the promise to now i'll stop calm to review its license. i need to speak, i believe, get my writing friends at 3 state. go to meet in school has already all still come to review that nasa. but what i will say this is beaca is that is that we live in a, in a democracy, mrs because we live into
12:09 pm
a country that believes in free speech. and i think that important that we should leave it up to off home rather than to politicians to decide which media roy organizations a good back. that's what russia goes off, come has already said it is going to investigate. examine complaints about ortiz coverage, specifically about at the crisis in ukraine as a priority. so it is keeping a close eye on us then, but it's simply not good enough for the government. the government wants to see this channel taken off that because as the letter reads are t, as part of russia's global dis, information campaign. and that it's essential the u. k. limits russia spread of state propaganda at home. so it is interesting to see a cabinet member hi. hi. hi, politician. here in the u. k. weighing in despite the prime minister saying it's not the job of politicians to weigh in in such matters. and if they do so well, the u. k. would be as bad as russia,
12:10 pm
but 2 things really are quite striking in order. first. i see that the fact that cooling for ought to be shut down in the 1st place is quite a, for a slight, specifically about free speech as a fundamental principle. the u. k how's itself on the fundamental principles of free speech, the right to tell all sides of the same story, any courage in the british public to engage in critical thinking and not just accepting as the u. k. government line. secondly, though, for that matter, is this an issue of state sponsorship because if it is an issue of state sponsorship, then we have to look at the b, b. c dot to is sponsored by the state. by the way, just to mention last year when china band, the bbc world service that was early last year in 2021, the u. k. government slammed that move as an unacceptable tailing of media freedom . they with the headlines at the time. so it does seem somewhat a hypocritical at this point, of course has now released the statement confirming it will not hesitate to step in
12:11 pm
and take action where necessary. recognizing the serious nature of the crisis in ukraine. we have been keeping the situation under close review and have already stepped up. our oversight of coverage of these events by broadcast is in the u. k. we are expediting complaints in this area is a matter of urgency and we will not hesitate to take swift action when necessary. well, it statement goes on to say, and i read it is acceptable for board causes to present issues from a particular perspective, provided alternative views and opinions are also represented. so it seemed as only one condition. and that is that coverage can't be one sided propaganda. make of that what you will, but ultimately, any channel here in the united kingdom, whether that is sky news, the b, b, c channel for i t n, whatever it is, you name it all t is also playing by exactly the same off. com rules. i'll speak with k livingston for my over london. i miss livingston. thanks so much for joining us. good job on
12:12 pm
the program today or comments earlier from the program. the brochure and saying it's not the government's role to shut down tv shuttles. if you try to do just that by telling off, going to investigate all t well, i know often i'm with bar johnson, but he's right design. this isn't a matter of the government, but also i don't think it's an issue for off come, i mean, i watch on tv every day. i have never seen propaganda. i've never seen a long way. it's got a good balance coverage of global news around the world. and i mean, this is all we're just being ramped because of the crisis on the ukrainian borders . and why use me so much about people watching all this stuff on tv is being run campuses ranty russian propaganda. this were not told on any british television or radio channel that these areas in ukraine has russian populations. they want to be part of russia,
12:13 pm
and that happens all way around the world that on so many countries borders. there are people living there that actually are not part of that nation, but the neighbors. and literally we should allow people to freedom to decide if they wish to move. i move the border side of that and that included in the country that their national panels. i want to further touch upon that question of, of balance and coverage because off court has replied to the government says it's review all cupboards. you be crying. and one sided propaganda is unacceptable, quoting them. this is a question of perspective, isn't it? because some would say a lot of the western mainstream media coverage is also providing just one side of the story, very limited, at least on, on the russian point to be what their concerns are, what the world view is. do you think there's truth to that? yes, i think that's true. i like,
12:14 pm
i have not seen any british news channel. i actually telling us the truth about the what's going on in ukraine and why i haven't seen a single amuse program pointing out that these are substantial ration communities on the other side. of the border with ukraine. and literally, i think back here in britain a few decades ago, we allow the people of scotland and wales to have ballots to decide whether they wish to be independent or remain within the u. k. and that should be a freedom offered to everyone all around the world and obviously gets a lot of scrutiny. it doesn't it because it's, it's government funded and that's no secret. in fact, this mark is funded by the russian state. now on those media on youtube, i think a lot of regulators and corporate social media john. so make sure that's the case. the question is why then not look at all government funded networks from from 24 to the b, b,
12:15 pm
c dot chaverra. surely this is all part of the same package if you will. yeah, this isn't, i mean really, this is all part of the conflict going on in new trying. and it's being wrapped up by a media and people aren't being told the truth here in this country. and that's why i mean, i'm delighted to come on in and say what i believed to be true. but you look around media ever since ours accuse being anti semitic, i've never been invited on to b, b, c, or d, v. so they could question me on whether i federal done anything and to submit it in the live just with global round the world. we need to better balance media, and i am delighted our t channel ever turns out during interview me and allows me to actually say what the truth is about that smears about me and the sneeze me. now, seeing about russia,
12:16 pm
i want to touch further upon that question of balance because you hit the nail on the head there. unlike a lot of mainstream wasn't tunnels. all he does go into a lot of detail in depth with somebody coverage. and i think we're just about the shuttle has, well, more than one correspondence and inbox right now in the region. i don't know of any other new shuttle have so many correspondence on my side of the front line. surely this is a valuable source information to the viewer. you can then make up his mind while watson both the be see both all t and a thought for themselves where the truth lies, make up their own opinion. me well as what i do, i watch all with news channels every day. and i just like watching that, that difference and thinking, why doesn't the b b c actually say about that long history of those rations being incorporated in new crime because i've not seen any media produced media
12:17 pm
point out the truth that crimea was never a part of the ukraine, the hundreds and hundreds of years. it was only back in the 1950s that then russian, the death khrushchev, who was himself the cranium, change the board and included crime air in it. and the people try me were never given their choice about whether they wanted to stay in that or go back and be part of the russia, that there is their nationality yet. so the question of perspective isn't, as well as, of course, international law. can livingston full of london? thanks so much for your time today on the channel. we do appreciate it. and you well, the us on its allies are piling in with sanctions, author, russia's recognition of the dumbass republics. the latest join in australia and japan, moscow's worn though, that the measures are likely to end up hitting unintended targets. there is no doubt that the sanctions imposed against us will hurt the global financial and
12:18 pm
energy markets. the united states will also feel these sanctions. prices will rise and ordinary people will feel the consequences. over the past 7 years, the u. s. has done nothing to convince the ukrainian leadership of the need to comply with the men's agreements. instead, washington has encouraged inaction within the key of regime. washington looked on as the russian speaking population in the country face persecution. we could not keep allowing threat of destruction and the death of civilians. and don bass. president bought in claims. russia has already started an invasion of ukraine. he's approved the 1st round of sanctions targeting russian financial institutions and high profile individuals. now the u, meanwhile is slapped travel bonds and asset freezes on members of the russia parliament who voted for recognition of the republics ortiz pool. asleep reports. you ambassadors in brussels, have those heard a package of sanctions against russia and these go further than the sanctions. the
12:19 pm
u. k and the united states are implementing 1st and foremost we have the 351 russian parliamentarians. they will face sanctions for having voted for the independence of the provinces of new guns and the next in eastern ukraine. in addition, they will be asked to freezes, as well as travel bands, as well as the prohibition for making funds available to 27 high profile people and entities. now these include banks, they include business people, they include ali, gulf, anybody and everybody who had any kind of financial or material support for the guns and the next regions. there was also talk of an internet, so called whole factory being targeted in st. petersburg. now they were also restrictions that are being placed on russians on the russian government's ability to raise money on the european financial markets. and there was also trade ben that
12:20 pm
has been implemented with the nets and lou gardens we are hearing from you need is that further sanctions on likely to be in the pipeline that they could follow in the next few days. and, and some leaders have actually expressed a desire to have, quote, big bags sanctions to come. now we also heard earlier from the french finance minister who lashed out at the north stream to project, which was quite surprising because earlier he had supported it, the e. u. finance ministers are due to meet on friday and saturday to also look at further sanctions. the french foreign minister has said that houston does not accept ukraine's independence under international law and accused him of revisionism. and we painting history. at the same time, we've heard again from the german foreign affairs minister, accusing putin off to quote,
12:21 pm
lying we moscow's planned intervention in ukraine and, and in terms of what putin said to waste and needed in recent days, the west is said to be preparing for all scenarios including a full russian invasion and then the united kingdom is waiting for more military action and more military support for ukraine. we have heard from the british prime minister by johnson saying that to quote lethal 8 in the form of weapons and non lethal aid will soon be provided by the u. k. to ukraine was a british defend circuitry has lashed out a president. putin, over his recognition with the mass republics and wallace who's a former songs who went as far as j. u. k. could even fight russia and when claiming it did just in the crimean war by
12:22 pm
the way and get away. that is consistent publication as far as i was concerned, ever since the fall or the soviet union when there was talk about helping russia. in fact, what, what was actually happened is consistent attempts to try and sort of clamp down on russia. push the boundaries back, incorporate many former soviet countries into nato. and there was talk quite recently of bringing the ukraine into nato as a consistent to caught kersey in the way that russia is treated by comparison. if you think of china, china and is doing all sorts of things that the west would be saying is, is unacceptable. but in fact nothing happens in the way of sanctions fall from it.
12:23 pm
there's more business been done that has been done with with life becoming increasingly dangerous, and dom asked you to the shelling that people have been fleeing across the board of russia. artie visited one of the temporary accommodation centers and heard from refugees. aah! listener! my children have grown up. my daughter works at medical university. she can't leave and the grandchildren left with their mother, god willing, they will stay safe. ah, listen, i have a right, let's just place little bag and massage back. here. we only brought the sensual documents and if you close we did manage to bring per saw. thanks such
12:24 pm
a shampoo or so we're given that here. ah, she is a scene of them in 2014. we were harshly. sheldon b sales were flying above our heads. we were constantly hiding in sellers. we were extremely terrified. that's why when we heard about the vaccination, we gave up everything and came here. ah, we had children for the all fish come. we love fun. volunteers helped law and even organized a little show for the children when they danced. the 1st day was very emotional. they helped us to cheer up a while. the west is busy, punishing russia for its recognition of the republics. it seems perhaps attention spans our shorts in 2008 cross about became europe's young with country off the nato bombing of the former yugoslavia. but he is, danny armstrong takes
12:25 pm
a closer look at how that all came about. the old saying goes, those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it. but in the west, it seems that those who don't know their own history are doomed to accuse others of their own wrong. doing the west is worst of bran. russia's recognition of the la guns and the nets, republics as a violation of international law. who in the lord's name, the spoon gives them the right to declare new, so call countries on territory the belonged to his neighbors. mister flagrant violation of international law and demands of firm response from your national community. however, look not too far back into the annals of history, suggest that it might not be about respect for the law at all in 1099, nate, so completely bypass the u. n. by not seeking authorization for a bombing campaign in bel, great. even just one day's a long time in politics, but for $78.00 days straight, that the bombs rained down in serbia. it seems that no one in the west took time to
12:26 pm
ponder its legality. mm. but then the killing of hundreds of civilians was handily explained the way as reasonable force under the chart of the security council has primary responsibility for maintaining international peace and security. and this is explicitly acknowledged in the north atlantic treaty. therefore, the council should be involved in any decision to resort to the use of force. and not long after that history repeats itself. the usa did him fancy waiting around for you and clarence on the invasion of iraq or whether it complied with international law. they simply went to war, that didn't exactly err on the side of legal either. a war waged without
12:27 pm
a clear mandate by the security council constitutes a flagrant violation of the prohibition of the use of force. security council resolution 1441 does not authorize the use of force. now, okay, we may not be talking about war here, but the recognition of breakaway regions as independent. but if we take another look back, can surprise surprise. we see another example straight from the usa textbook. washington was full of congratulations for casa off to recognizing its independence in light of the conflicts of the 1990 s. independence is the only viable option to promote stability in the region back then they said it was the only peaceful resolution, but it seems there's no a deering to tradition as regards to lugens and the next regions now. so those who do not learn lessons from history may be doomed to repeat it. but when it comes to the west, the u. s. and nato, it seems a total lack of awareness, means they blindly accuse others of repeating their own history without ever gazing
12:28 pm
back at their own checkered past. say, shoot in just a few mom. it's time for news views, shoes coming away. we're back in office with the latest join us again. that all seems nice. mm. ah. mm. bring you the very latest every out the day. this is our national fun. everyone here with matt guys are financial survival guide. liquid assets are those that you can
12:29 pm
convert into cash quite easily. but keep in mind, no as the domain to inflation datawatch guys report with this is the beginning of a russian invasion of ukraine. president violence. we found about the latest tensions between russia and ukraine, calling for the latest move and invasion, and the u. s. relocate, you print embassy staff to poland, southern canada, question the future of their freedom as prime minister. guessing trudeau when the house vote on emergencies asked all the while a single mom is locked out of her own bank account. after donating the $50.00 to the freedom convoy, then our political panel talks about the possibility of this year's midterm to
12:30 pm
turning bread. and the new sta chief says he wants to fight misinformation. what does that really mean? all that are more right here on our t america. ah, there's still flagrant wireless international law and demands of firm response from international community. so today i'm announcing the 1st traunches sanctions to impose cost on russia in response to their actions yesterday. hello and thank you so much for joining us. i'm natasha sweet and 1st got enough hughes as tensions between russia and ukraine continue. it appears that many surrounding countries have a strong opinion on the matter. united nations security council, along with the u. s. in 6 other countries held an emergency meeting monday at the request of ukraine. according to a letter, a un ambassador, said putin,
12:31 pm
his actions were in violation of the you when charter. but the russian president called for his country's forces to maintain peace in eastern ukraine territories to
