willing to go with president putin orders urges ukrainian soldiers to take power in the country to protect civilian lives that says where some powers condemn what they call an out invasion officials in order to public plainly ukrainian army shutting at a local school ceiling to teach in russia defense ministry accuses ukraine is army of committing a war crime by placing a rocket launcher in residential areas. i appeal to ukrainian citizen, i'm sure you're nationalists. leadership uses the same method this year. they want to use you as human shields, a russian military operation. ukraine, whose faith and aim to protect the people, must continue for a 2nd day that says russian troops move across the country.

news life from moscow. thanks for joining us on our national side time. daniel hawkins. wherever you are this evening. welcome to the program. now president boucher has said he's ready to send a delegation to the roof to negotiate with the cranium government after president. so that means the landscape off of tools. now, according to the criminal ukraine has responded with a counter offer for a meeting in the polish capital was so, so far, no decision has been reached, approved and is also addressed. ukrainian soldiers directly urging them to take power in their country. you sure? so brochures, quail, smooth, ocean, verizon, actually, i once again appeal to the military personnel of the own forces of ukraine. do not allow neo nazis to use your children, wives, and the elderly. as human shields take power into your own hands,

it looks like it will be easier for us to come to an agreement. i guess you cannot underestimate the significance of these latest commons by the russian president and the tone, the toughness of mister proven that's something we've not seen before. when he was referring to the government in kiev. i would like to stress once again, but be very precise. he called the officials in charge of the ukraine, a gang of drug addicts, and vo nazis. and that is a very serious thing. plus like you've heard just before. he called on the ukranian serviceman to take power and become in charge of the country. and i would assume that this is something, this is pure speculation, but still this is something that could lead to possibly a different group of people representing ukraine to head, to men's or war. so or somewhere else where potential talks between the 2 sides,

that could happen. so this could be what the kremlin is expecting. now i do have to remind you that there are political forces in ukraine, including the opposition and the parliament that are pro russian that have always been supported by the population in the countries east. and now they have close ties with the russian government. indeed, whether mister putin was hinting at these people at this time, we don't know, but possibly we may find out in the near future. i'd like to go back to the proposal by van der zalinski that he made a couple of hours ago. he, he's in a situation where i believe he's desperate to start these direct talks with a lot of them are proven auto. i'd like to point out that this was a complete change in tone compared to what mr. zalinski was saying about 2 days ago when the 1st stages of the russian military operation were unraveling. back

then he was saying that the indian arm he needs to stay put and a victory for ukraine is inevitable. now he's desperate to have these talks that you yours. i would like to address the president of the russian federation. once again. there are a battles going on all over ukraine. let's sit down at the negotiating table to stop the killing. well, we are currently seeing a man who was much more nervous, but mister zalinski, according to the kremlin and being hot and cold. because according to dmitri pascall, after suggesting that the location for the talks be changed to warsaw, apparently there were no more messages or attempts to get in touch with kremlin from key of or the russian defense ministry has claimed ukraine is using its population of human shills apparently on the wrecks instructions of us advises. so

given everyone, it's gone and if i talk to you craney and military leadership, how to place rocket artillery systems in residential area to provoke return fire against local residents use by the key regime of residential areas. they covered the firing positions of its artillery as a war crime. this handwriting is familiar with the techniques are actively used by terrorists supervised by the cia in the middle east and other countries. i appeal to ukrainian citizen, i'm going to share your nationalist leadership, uses the same method, this area. they want to use you as human shields that the russian armed forces will not strike residential areas of the ukrainian capital. doing the ministry spokesman, also claim to finance committing a war crime by firing artillery from inside residential areas. but to the russia military will not be drawn into provocations. he also noted that similar tactics have been used by c l. a back medicines in the middle east, or you're trying to use the russian operation as invasion and

a violation of its sovereignty. western powers share that view and i've been reduced several rounds of sanctions against moscow. in while 2 teachers have been killed by ukrainian artillery strike on a school outside bennett's, that's according to local official warning. you may find the following footage distressing. and we will see these images showing the aftermath of the strike. no children were in the building at the time. it's within one of the 2 don't mass republics, which russia recognized as independent. earlier this week. one of the task itself, residential areas, have been a treated me according to locals. so ukrainian shell landed in the parking lot damaging several vehicles for young shockwave smashed the windows of a nearby warehouse. no one civilian reportedly was severely injured. villa ortiz roman custody of reports from the next group of that. so if you, by sure, but is shelling a continues here and, and as people's republican, we've been here in, it's in miss censor of the city on the outskirts of the city. and of course,

the news came from the city of a girl of earlier on friday where 2 teachers were killed by shelling at a school. thankfully, the school was close and there were no, we're, we're no children present. he would you mission good. again, british my chief tricky, another tragedy occurred in our town today. ukrainian force as shelter school. as a result, our colleagues, 2 of our teachers have died for 8 years. we have been leaving in fear that our loved ones may get hurt. die how colleagues may die. why is that? there is no answer. people still will be void, not. he grant has been given us for 8 years now. kids left without parents. the deputy had teacher has a son, he's in 5th grade. he became an orphan. she didn't have a husband, he died. the geography teacher has a sick mother. no one knows what to do with her now. that's terrifying. when will this be over? we're waiting for it. please. everyone who is doing it,

just stop this terrible war. innocent people are jain, deal it's moment shelling of that city continues for 8 years already and this friday was not any different. in addition to the 2 women who were killed by artillery fire, one person was wounded earlier on thursday. another 2 people were killed at a factory where they were working. and so all in all, over 2 days of the world. as many as 12 people had been wounded now from the city of gaul, of coal, which is about an hour away from where i'm standing to ride here to the city of done that square shilling hit or nearly the center of the city about 2 kilometers away. from where i'm standing, several civilian facilities were, were hit, and unfortunately one person lost their life. it was a woman who came under fire and an ambulance came to save her life by.

unfortunately, she died on route to the hospital. now denise kiss quiet, a large city and many of its outskirts are right there on the front line where heavy artillery jewels continue. and many of the local residents, so were forced to hide in bomb shelters, were speaking of murray, opal. well, according to the representative of the people's militia here, edwards, bizarre and well, that city is currently encircled by our zone. but sally and it's a so called the territorial defense force, which over many years the many have linked it with me or nazi affiliations and belief. well, they're saying here that there are members of this battalion, they're not letting people evacuate from mario pool. we've been hearing a lot of artillery fire here in the center on friday, of course has been it sounds a lot more distant, but yes, there were explosions, right?

here in the city as for the atmosphere, you can definitely see people walking around me. of course everyone here is hoping that's of this conflict. according to your numbers. more than 14000 people had died of over 90. children were killed in this conflict for 240 children had been wounded and many of them became disabled. so certainly the people here want peace. they want not nothing but peace. and some of them for the past 2 days in separation. again, they're saying that said, don't, let's get the moment is probably the safest place that's in the has been in the last 8 years because the fighting is now mostly going out board and not into the city. let's cross live to can starting from the hamilton coalition to stop the war can, thanks for joining us. could serve you in the program today. the situation on the ground in the cranium, key of in particular, very tense. obviously,

russian troops reports that are close to the city. now, the government there is actually handing out guns to civilians who want to join the fight. we understand the 10 to 15000 weapons handed out already. or do you think that's a good idea in terms of saving severe lives? i know i don't, i think that they are. the ukranian government ah, guide itself into this mass are a lot. got itself into the mass because several weeks ago zalinski walked away from the m. the r mence protocol study was finished with them. those mence protocols were the only formula that could have ended the out war on the russian minority. and the don bass region, which was started by the cool government which came to power with us help in 2014

in kia when zalinski walked away from that. and he, he said basically that, that war was going to continue. and i, you know, it here in canada, the, they are russian military action and ukraine is portrayed as a cold blooded unprovoked act of aggression against the sovereign state of ukraine . but what, what they failed to tell the people of canada, it's that russia was responding to a long and 8 years long, war of low intensity against the russian speaking minority in the dawn bass region . 15000 people have died and tens of 1000 made a homeless and, and turned into refugees. canadians should understand this because if our government came to power in ottawa like the one in the government in 2014 and kiya and told the people of quebec, you can't speak your language instantly more. it's no lot french is no longer the

official language. forget about your cultural rights and the autonomy that you got . so through such a long start all over the last 60 years. well there would be a revolution and come back the next day. and that's what happened when the cool government came to power in and key of in 2014 with the help of, of new land and the u. s. state department and $5000000000.00 worth of the american taxpayers money. and since then, there's been this war against russian speakers now in which they are being methodically wiped out by the ukrainian government. and it's right on russia's doorstep. how could russia not respond? and of course, the, the u. s. and nato are responsible for they background to this crisis because on december 21st, the russian government a submit a draft proposal for security in eastern europe to us and nato, which the russian which the u. s. and natal rejected out of hand. so they put the

russian government into a position where since there was no negotiations on the part of the ukrainian government, the russian government had to resolve this war on its doorstep against the russian speaking people by taking action against you, praying to turn it into a neutral country, which was one of the on december 21st. yes. certainly both sides that do show some of the blame the western powers will claim that russia is the one that has made a minute for moves. just very briefly last last about what president person said he's ukrainian soldiers to take control of the country and government thing. it will be easier to negotiate with them. is that a good thing? do you think for him to encourage, given that negotiations with president lensky, or potentially on the table and also well, zalinski has wants to negotiate now, after the russian government has taken this military action,

but he refused to negotiate before when he could have resolved the problem that led to this military intervention, and the president putin as calling on a ukrainian soldiers to take control. so that an end can be brought to the whole situation. it can be resolved and russia's justifiable demand, which it presented on december 21st for a neutral ukraine. with iron clad guarantee that it would not join nato could be achieved after all. in 1990 the u. s. and nato made false claims, deliberate, false claims to gorbachev. that nato would not expand one inch eastward of a reunited germany. and they lied because natal expanded 800 kilometers and took in 14 countries, his army surgeon, fraught. we are out of time. but thanks so much for coming on that i, we do appreciate that kind of stuff from adults and coalition to stop the war.

thank you. very much and now the russian defense ministry is released and update on its ukraine operation, which western powers are denouncing as an invasion. according to the report, the next can look out for public troops. so continuing their incursion with the support of russian forces. if it was 25 kilometers west, beyond the former contact line into territory that was until now held by tier, numerous ukrainian soldiers reportedly surrendered, laying down the weapons and russian airborne troops, power to control the exclusion zone surrounding the 4 much noble nuclear power plot . well, there's a lot of regime on the outskirts of products in east and ukraine. verified video, which apparently shows a blaze in an army fuel arcadia ukraine's 2nd largest city home to one half 1000000 people. the russian troops have been conducting operations outside the city limits . but say those have now finished run the breakaway. we don't last republic

switched russia, of course, no longer considered part of your crime. video shows that melissa has taken down the clay in flag ministers building but if the forces are now fighting me off with talent near the city of mario full, you can see rockets being fired. meanwhile, with unverified video, once again, it's stuck on line, apparently showing people welcoming the russian all the new york, but they were similar to those new ones. him tonight as well. the southern ukrainian city of had a song meanwhile, as reportedly been circled by russian forces. one of

the been and i went to believe it myself, strike on the city. this voters religiously shows the moment shutting hits. a patrol station with pictures of russian forces are coming in from southeast and you're trying to local, sorry they boxes are the city of when it's awful, it's mer apparently confirmed in his speech. the cities surrendered. meanwhile air a sovereign subbing heard in the major ukrainian cities with residents and courage degrees bomb shelters. the me, the alone in the morning, he was rocked by series of power and explosions. authorities claim they shut down a rushing cruise. my follow residential area in the capital rushers,

defense ministry, as the noise conducting a rocket strike, it says ukraine shot down its own font or across the debris. apparently came down on that apartment building, walking a fire and injury 8 people. know around $200.00 russian federal troopers have, sees the key, got fall airfield, a key f, biting. i've been ongoing for 2 days now and ended when the paratroopers linked up with other russian forces. when you said in just a couple of hours ago, european foreign ministers have approved new sanctions against russia for its military operation. earlier the council of europe suspended russia's membership, accusing it von anything international law and ukraine. but he's charlotte davinsky has the latest on any restrictions. it seems easier says it's now prepared to target president putin and the russian foreign minister said k love of with sanctions. as a result of these measures, these military measures that russia has taken in the ukraine of the sanctions that

have been in stone friday include the possible closure of a space to russian, a cross in poland and also in the check or public. the czech republic also is going to stop giving out residency permits to russians. we do know that the sanctions are much wide ranging than that looking to target the economic and financial institutions and framework over russia. the lead is widely condemned. the action that's taking place in ukraine saying the president has once again reintroduced to rule in europe. we knew that francis looking to book bank accounts of those russians who are listed in the sanctions on germany has said that essentially business with russian bank over and done with with the exception of individual transactions. for example,

paying for gas vote delay. and the commission president said this is meant to hit russia hard and where it hurts. now we have to meet the moment. we will hold the kremlin accountable. the package of massive and targeted sanctions. european lead is approved tonight, clearly demonstrates that this package includes financial sanctions that cut rush us access to the most important capital markets. and these sanctions will increase rush of borrowing cost, raise inflation, and gradually road rushes industrial base. however, not everyone is happy with the strength of the sanctions that have been proposed in and now so far. and there is a suggestion that even more could be coming in the next few days. poland, prime minister modify etzky has actually said that he would have liked mood done much earlier, including the you deciding that he won't buy any more russian gas. there was also

condemnation failing to agree on binding russia from using the swiss international payment system that came from a former president of the european council. donal task in this war, everything is real putins madness and cruelty ukrainian victims bombs falling on key f. only your sanctions are pretended, those you governments, which blocked tough decisions, germany, hungary, italy have disgraced themselves. what impact the sanctions will have is yet to be determined. but what we do know is that with sanctions being threatened early this week on thursday, the rubel fell to historical levels against the dollar. and that was around the food, the value white russian stock market. we will see in the next few days what the impact of these particular functions will have,

and also have been protest t in european capitals against russia's action. it's military action in ukraine. the last few days. people saying that they want the war to stop, and in fact, we've also heard from you sit berella. this is the high representative to the european commission, who said that almost 2000 russians have been brutally detained in dozens of cities in russia for participating in calm protests said to the peace of the gates, the unjustified attack on the sovereign country of ukraine. he says the kremlin is no, russia teaching is not the russian people that comes from the high representative to you. however, there, all those dissenting voices that say that this isn't all russia's fault, and in fact the west also shows it's part to blame in what's now playing out.

that includes voices such as nigel for raj in the u. k. and also here in france, presidential hopeful candidates. eric's the more new to if we could have avoided this catastrophe. i have been saying for years that the west has a responsibility for the escalation of violence in the east. and i must understand russian demands against name to expansion. unfortunately, we have done nothing to prevent this escalation. where might be sanction go even further? could we see military operations by nature on the ground in ukraine will not so says the french armed forces of the stuff florence paul, who says that russia has not had rude, declared against it. never by declaring there is no country that wants this, neither in europe nor in the us. we are faced with a nuclear power. we have not declared war on russia, and it seems president,

marconi is open to dialogue, to having had discussions with president putin on thursday evening. the to lead is saying that they will keep those lines, but other international reactions are coming in with the crane situation as well. the revision song condo has been russia from taking part. the international olympic committee requested the cancellation of sporting events in the country, leading american airline delva has ended its partnership with their offload. while the british government as soon imposed sanctions on vladimir putin and foreign minister, elaborate on his policy reports. there has been a lot of reaction here in the u. k. downing street has said that there is nothing off the table when it comes to ukraine. but on the other hand, we have heard from the defense secretary who has reiterated again that the u. k. will not be putting boots on the ground in ukraine, also saying that they will not support a no fly zone that this will only lead to war. at the same time,

the foreign secretary lead trust is undertaking around of shuttle diplomacy to try and convince other european capitals to follow what's been termed the nuclear option of sanctions. in other words, the british support for taking russia off the swift international monetary system. but earlier, the e, you refuse to adopt this? at the same time, the armed force minister has said that there are a 1000 british troops on standby in neighboring countries to ukraine to assist with humanitarian relief. and here they talking primarily about refugees that might arise as and if people flee that country always, jonathan has impose the largest ever sanctions that this country has imposed against russia. and at the same time, he says that this will hubble the russian economy. we're talking about sanctions

that affect the russian president vladimir putin in a circle. sanctions that affect russians who either live or have connections to the u. k. and also bags the u. k. is and to the largest to make the package of economic sanctions that russia has ever seen with new financial measures, we're taking new powers to target russian finance. in addition to the bank, we've already sanctioned these powers and they will not totally to exclude russian banks from the u. k. financial system, which is of course by far the largest in europe, stopping them, accessing sterling and clearing payments through the u. k. this 10 point sanction package includes asset freezes on some major russian banks, including the 2nd largest state and bank v t b. major russian companies will also no longer be able to access and res finance in

bush. and at the same time, the russian, a non ill afloat, is no longer going to be allowed to be professional. here in the u. k, it will not be able to land. and then there has been the suspension of dual export licenses to russia and of some high tick exports. now, earlier we did hear from the russian foreign ministry spokesperson responding to comments that were made in an unguarded moment. on wednesday by the petition defense secretary, he was talking to his military personnel. when he said that bruton had gone for toronto, in other words, he had taken lunacy to a new level sheet through that, coming back at the birth would utilize the door. thank you. it is surprising that the british defense secretary is rendering such a judgment against the head of another state. he could easily have come up with similar descriptions on assessing the british prime minister. now there has been a protest outside dining street by pro ukrainian supporters. many of them clad in

the colors of the ukrainian flag, and they called on the u. k. to take a tougher react tree measure these of either ukraine in terms of sanctions. many people also calling for the u. k to get involved militarily. watchdog rosco nozzle has announced the crackdown on facebook. why restrict access of the social platform off the funding guilty of so called violating human rights and freedoms of russians? that's off the facebook has sense that for russia, media outlets in the last 44 hours and no response to demand sumeet reinstate. full axis have been given and we heard from suzanne massey, a former adviser to the regular ministration russian affairs. she thinks there is no desire from either of putin or the russian population and to see if retracted war in ukraine. dumbass is a very, very difficult problem and was a difficult problem before this. and it's going to be, it is basically that,

that ukraine is in a civil war, i think put in is a very intelligent leader. and one thing he does not want is he does not want war. and i know that i was in russia now for the last 3 months and russian, people don't want war. and i have lectured all over the united states and nobody in america was war either. so the question is, who wants war? unfortunately, i, i don't think that they have been too much encouragement on the american side. but i do think that russia has often expressed in level of i happen to know it has often said that the real ill way to solve even a difficult problem is to negotiate. and we, at least in the united states, have now said that we would still.
