12:01 pm
nobody with the russian cargo ship is intercepted by france and english channel that soft, strict sanctions imposed by the e. u oval. russia is devastating military action in ukraine ah quote from moscow. thanks for joining us. this our international lab work. we show you being with us today. welcome to the program. now the ukranian president's office said kia is not satisfied with the conditions being offered by russia foresees for negotiations. but as the provenance spokesman claim, ukraine is refusing to hold talks and russia will continue. what it calls a special operation, stressing again that russian army is not targeting any civilian areas of children you. yesterday, when we were expecting negotiations with the ukrainian leadership, the russian president ordered a suspension of the russian armed forces advance. but as the ukrainian side has refused to negotiate,
12:02 pm
the advance of the main russian forces resumed this afternoon in accordance with the plan of the operation. brought into the trunk, joined us in a studio for the latest updates. still, no news on the progress on. busy those talks on the c 5 plus a statement from the russian ministry as well. what more do we know so far? well, the russian ministry of defense came out with their latest comments a bit more than an hour ago. and their words are echoing what the kremlin spokesperson do dream pass. golf said the russian army units have been given orders to advance wherever they were advancing in different parts of ukraine. because as the russian military puts it, kiev decided to refuse to take part in negotiations. now they're also dressing and they've done that many cars before that for the washing army,
12:03 pm
the civilian areas are not targets, not in any case that is denied reports in the cranium, media and statements by the ukranian. politicians that the civilian areas are suffering from russian air strikes. now, we do have to understand that the negotiations. this is something that's been speculated about wildly widely. sorry, since mid friday we saw at one point late on friday evening, that direct talks between voters landscape voted were potent were possible. but from the rushed inside. we heard that it was a bit of a hot and cold approach. by key of 1st they said yes, then they said no, they agreed that many could be the location for which negotiations, according to the russian side. however, the problem then said that kiev wanted to hold these talks in warsaw, poland,
12:04 pm
and then disappeared for several hours. so again, the rushing side cur, the is saying that ukraine refused altogether, and it could have happened because kiev didn't want to accept the initial terms that russia put forward before the negotiations. now here's what we heard from the president's office of, sorry, well there is a lens key on saturday. ukraine, of course, did not refuse negotiations, but that's about negotiations, which by the way, have not yet taken place. ukraine and president zelinski categorically, renounce any unacceptable conditions or ultimatums from the russian side. now if it is very important to carefully watch out for any official statement coming from both sides,
12:05 pm
and these kind of statements are surely something that could affect the possibility of talks being announced or not. and that's why really have to watch out, for instance, no for the remarks of older men. lensky who said a couple of hours ago that ukraine needs to immediately be accepted in a european union. this is what exactly we heard from the cranium leader. stuff will you send me a moment? the decisive moment has come to close once and for all the issue of ukraine's accession to the you. i hope that germany and hungary will have the courage to support this decision or hulu. now in stark contrast to that, we may remember that on friday the grading president said that he's ready to discuss a new troll status for ukraine. so this is a real contradiction for the russian side. definitely possibly even a red line and we do understand and again,
12:06 pm
that the experts have been talking about that these are the kinds of statements by key of that could really annoy russia and lead to further action announced by the kremlin indeed. and hope of course, from an ordinary people on both sides that are both leaders tons of negotiating table to and the blood said that it's taking place, saw it easily. put runker with a nice now russia's military action is now in its 3rd day as condemnation from most western states as his fever pitch. this comes, his moral explosions are reported in ukraine's capital q. now these images show what appears to be a mythos show. i can a residential tell block on the outskirts of the capital. a several floors have been damaged. it's unclear if there are any victim russian defense ministry sources say it was caused by missile garden failure in ukraine's advent system. a key f says it was a russian missile strike. now, officials in cave are urging residents to hide and bomb shelters in this and

12:24 pm
has already been. because you couldn't pay russia for the oil and gas through swift, and they wouldn't send it anymore. and no one knows where that's going to go. so if they do that, if they actually go through with that, they will disrupt global trade. they will drive inflation through the roof. and let me remind everyone, russia, china, iran, and many other countries don't like the domination, the united states as over the swift system. and it really is only a matter of time before there are multiple systems. bitcoin is already functioning to a degree like that. so this would be a very dangerous step because it will accelerate the end of the swift monopoly above. meanwhile, and he will process us putting worldwide against russia's military operation and ukraine. one of the latest wasn't burning where hundreds of people gathered outside the russian embassy, waiting and finding flags,
