the list of speakers is curse. their meeting stands adjourned with ok, well, for the last 45 minutes or so, you've been watching whether you have 50 members of the or 13 of them, of the un security council, of course, and that un security council emergency session in new york. the session was to refer a un security council resolution on the ongoing operation to the un general assembly to morrow afternoon, early a veto by russia. new is a course, a full time, a member of the security council in the under 11 votes for it. 3 abstentions. that was china, india, and the u. a. and the one the vote against that move by russia. we heard

a number of the representatives talking there. the you are saying it was the 1st time for decades. that's an emergency special sessions. the general assembly has been called and she said it was no ordinary moment. extraordinary actions are needed. she said to counter the threat to the international system to help her create in its people. she urged russia to toned and dangerous rhetoric, as it was described regarding nuclear weapons. further, she called that term, she called russia's war, a war of choice and appealed to the russian military saying the world is watching. and the russian military would be held accountable for its actions. over all those wide condemnation of rushes moves pointing out their rushes item isolated the majority of the world's de criticism to the failure of the un security council to ensure the people that before it came to this criticism of the russians. vito earlier that just mentioned which is now over written weird from the u. s. l. pania

from mexico u. k. in the norway number brazil bone gone to the list, went on a warning from brazil to about the dangers of sanctions imposed on russia having wider effect able on the rest of the world as well as those china. i was interesting to hear what they had to say calling for restraint, encouraging diplomatic efforts as soon as possible. but also speaking of the importance on the indivisibility of security, which is one of russia's big concerns here. and for all in europe, including russia, to talk and that urgent, productive talks when needed, between the you and russia, then rushes vassily to bends as spoke, he of course voted against the resolution. he called it a one sided imbalanced draft, but the common ground he said, must be sought saying rushes legitimate concerns regarding nato were being ignored . calling out what he called the to seat and fakes about reports of shelling of civilians in ukraine alleging that ukrainians themselves are using some of their

own as human shields. in some instances, he said, comparing it to the same tactics as ice or terrorists. it wrapped up with the ukranian representative speaking spelling out the position he said in cities and towns across ukraine, the ringing out of attention, air raids, please proceed to the shelters. warnings, alleging 16 children have been killed in the last few days, and talking about how it's affecting younger people and the greater population. further, the alleged 4300 russian personnel of been filled and 200 taken prisoners of war. he said that was according to the ministry of defense in ukraine. he also gave her the telephone number for any one worried in russia for any service meant serving in ukraine, so that the un general assembly meeting will happen tomorrow. all

right. i think we can cross live. i can't hear anything in my ear at the moment, but now i can to kayla moping correspondence who is across that. caleb, i'm not sure if you're there or not. we're trying to get a connection to canada opened is corresponding to course in new york city. it was across the meeting, the you and the security council emergency session in new york city to discuss rushes, ongoing special operation. we're waiting to get across to correspondence of taking you through what was said and okay, and as a say, just reiterating what ukraine said earlier on spelling at the position of the terrible things you said that were happening in the cities and towns and what the population was having to go through what a strong rebuff from russia supposed to be in a benzo who voted against calling it a one sided and balance draft. but the common ground must be sought saying rushes

and legitimate concerns regarding need. so still being ignored. so we still get a bit of time to fill. so if you are listening and i'm going to repeating some stuff here, just in case you joined us, that's why i'm doing it. we're trying to get a connection to our correspondent in new york city. you're watching the un security council meeting that. okay, we've got kellum open that. sorry about that at home a little bit, said jackie, but it's a fluid situation. hello there, kellum open. i don't know if you can hear me or not. i hope you can, but i've just taken off. he was at length, but some of the points of what came out in that meeting. oh, he's 20 of us just joining us now. we've money to turn that around to get some grabs of it. so take us through it. oh, sure. well, as you will recall, the un security council meeting that just concluded with to place in the un security council chamber at the headquarters in manhattan. and it opened with

russia presiding and they're rotating role is president of the security council. and we 1st heard from the united states that unloaded some very emotional and harsh allegations against russia, condemning russia's recent moves. this is what we heard from the u. s. representative. we need to take extraordinary actions to meet this threat, to our international system and do everything we can to help ukraine and it's people just this morning, president putin put rushes. nucular forces on high alert, even though he is invading a country with no nuclear weapons. and is under no threat from nato, a defensive alliance that will not fight in ukraine. we urge russia to tone down it's dangerous rhetoric regarding nuclear weapons. now

from there, we heard from a number of other countries, many allies of the united states spoke critically. of russia now china took to the floor of the un security council meeting. and china spoke about the need for de escalation and dialogue and how all parties involved would benefit from an end to hostilities. expressing you know, hope that negotiations could resolve this. here's what we heard from the chinese representative and from china, supports and encourages all diplomatic efforts conducive to a peaceful settlement of the ukraine crisis when and welcomes the earliest possible direct dialogue and negotiations between russia and ukraine. at the same time, china supports eco footed dialogues between the you and russia on european security issues. the security council should give priority to regional peace and stability and the universe. so security of all countries and play

a constructive role in resolving the ukraine issue. now and the russian ambassador and benzine took to the floor. he pointed out a lot of the deceptions that are going on. one theme that russian ambassador to benzine referenced was the use of false images. there are images of bombings, images of atrocities being committed that are from other conflicts and other parts of the world that are being passed off as crimes by russia that are being committed that are circulating across social media. he actually spoke about how some of the atrocities committed by ukrainian forces against the peoples of don ask. and lou ganske are now being used in american media as somehow proof of crimes being committed by russia and blaming these atrocities the ukrainians have committed against the people. don't ask lugens, using them and as allegations against russia and show, showing them as,

as somehow crimes being committed by the military of russia. and he talked about how they've actually uncovered a manual that was created to enable forces to create these kind of fake videos to demonize russia. from there he talked about how there just seems to be no interest at all on the part of these us countries. us aligned countries, there seems to be no interest on, in their part about the safety of the people of don asking to god's what the don boss, people's have been enduring for the past 8 years. seems to be of no concern to the security council. and of no concern to the various countries that address the meeting, criticizing russia. and so he pointed to the hypocrisy, he emphasized that russia does want to negotiate and bring this conflict to him. and he did criticize the use of deceptive media and false videos by the united states all to escalate a demon ization of russia. so quite a thorough, basically debunking of a lot of the claims of the us ambassador herself was referencing those very videos

that the, you know, you are, the russian representative pointed out a lot of which are actually fake and not even from ukraine or in some cases atrocities committed by the ukrainian military. so it was quite a, quite a thorough debunking but clearly not a lot of agreement among different countries that spoke china calling for de escalation, russia pointing out the deceptions in western media. and a lot of countries echoing the united states that the security council, a lot of disagreement was heard, pretty clear the world doesn't see i'd eye on these events. there's very strong differences between the countries that are represented on the 15 member body, the security council, the leads the united nation. i was things for the update, the just to remind our views of the top story tonight, the main point essays kelly will let you go for now. the main point president potent reacted to aggressive language from nato members and the big new pledges of weaponry to ukraine by putting russia strategic forces,

which includes nuclear weapons units on jaila was really do as you can see, western countries and not only taking on friendly actions towards the nation in the economic sector, i'm referring to the illegitimate sanctions that everyone is aware of over top officials of needs. a member states are also using aggressive language towards our country. and that's why i'm ordering the defense minister and chief of staff to the russian army, the tearing forces on special alerts where russia strategic forces include both nuclear non nuclear units, long range bombers submarine, ships and jets. the pi alert also connects miss all warning systems and defenses against attacks from space, which indeed sounds all very alarming. let's talk about that with a tranquil correspondent. when you look at a serious situation unfolding tonight where it's going to go, we don't know, but take us through where we are at the moment, then kevin walla. the stakes are high. probably they've never

been so high and we keep hearing these messages from the west and from moscow that the military build up will continue pretty much and it's not getting less troubling. day by day, the military build up on the part of nato. that's clear. the something that russia sees as a threat, that it's clearly something that the machine government is worried about. and that explains these latest words by vladimir putin, the who's talking about the deterred and forces being put on high alert. although he maintains that these actions are defensive. and they're being forced by the decisions that are being made by the natal commanders and the leaders of that western alliance. now, i want to take you back to the words of the nato secretary general. he and stolen

berg, who referred to the statement by the russian president has something very dangerous . let's take a listen. this is dangerous rhetoric. that's the reason why we both provide support ukraine. but also why we did last week's a months. i have a significant increase the presence of nato in the eastern port lyons. now, while we are hearing that nato is sending more troops and more hardware to the borders of russia, that is the baltic states, poland, and other eastern european countries. besides this, the officials there keep saying that there is still looking forward to a political settlement of this crisis. but when you listen to the watch, officials, every time they keep asking the same question, why weren't you saying these words? why weren't they supported by any action in the previous 8 years when it seems that

there was no persuasion pretty much from the western countries for ukraine to really follow the minsk agreements and somehow go on to a peaceful settlement. reach a peaceful settlement in the dom best region. now we may also look at the latest statements by various european leaders who are now confirming that they are sending lethal military a to ukraine. some of these countries before refused to do so. now it is happening in and when, as far as the officials on the highest level saying that they will even send armed aircraft to ukraine. at the same time though, we get and we're hearing from jim jim saki, for example, that the white house spokesperson saying that president vladimir prudence, order to put russia strategic. the turns forces on high alert, was based on a manufactured threat. now whether this is

a manufactured thread or not see for yourself, i've been trying to tell you what the russian side thinks about it. and they clearly see this as a threat, which is completely not manufactured. especially if you listen to lot or put in the russian presence or i think self, i've really earlier. ok, well the heads of the you for ministry agreed to provide lethal weapons to ukraine with 450000000 euros, picking up from what it was saying there. according to the use of foreign policy chief, he also added that sanctions will freeze about half of russia's financial reserves . the use also in another move last evening and them to bind on our channel, our t. i'd also split nick the use agency and of subsidiary companies. for broadcasting and the block which received a swift response from our editor in chief, marguerite is simone in the people's, an entities that are going to be subject to restrict measures political figures.

who whole key role are the put in system in russia. both the ones who disseminate propaganda, rebecca induced a military. we are going to band russia today. and this nick from broadcasting in the unit. because he had a champion of information, mary, polish. you are to say you are scattered. i'm not going to ask of the e u that for years has been selling the whole world. how much the treasure and love freedom of speech, how they appreciate and loved diversity of thoughts, diversity of news and information. today in response to the actions of russia. ukraine meant to protect russian speaking citizens there. the e. u announced that we won't broadcast there any more. what the president's decision to start, the operation has to do with us is unclear. it's absolutely obvious that no matter whether we continue broadcasting or not, the operation would proceed. it's absolutely clear that it's just an excuse. they

wanted to close us for a long time, but it would have looked bad in the eyes of their own citizens, our audience. because it's against freedom of speech anyway, and now it convenient excuse appeared and they decided to get rid of the long lasting uncomfortable issue of us. and our huge audience in this way groom will find some other way to communicate with our audience, for sure without direct broadcasting them. but the people of the european union today can see how much that allotted, talk of freedom of speech costs yesterday more. if you are an avi shania, let's go live to john mcadams, executive director romfolo peace institute, either her considering the they're going to say she worked for not good to hear. what's happening tonight is it far from pace? what you make of the un security council? me to we got through earlier on widespread condemnation for russia, but to have with cylinder benzo the russian representative, making his strong case we heard from ukraine as well. would you think about meeting? well, i think, you know, the europeans certainly are rationing it up. you know the announcement today, the, as you pointed out and you're reported,

they're going to send fighter jets to ukraine on 1st of all, i don't know who's going to fly them. you don't just pop into one of these planes and start fighting, right? you have years of training, so i was going to send pilots to. i think president putin was very clear when he said that if you provide destructive capability to ukraine, you yourself can be targeted. whatever you think about putting he hasn't lived so far. he's basically done everything that he said he's willing to do so the escalation in rhetoric and the escalation and in action providing more up to ukraine, providing fire just to ukraine. they're making themselves a target, they're escalating, and it's a very, very dangerous situation. i think that's why president putin responded earlier today, talking about mobilizing their strategic deter, it was a pituitary, sayings put, rushes, deterrents of forces including nuclear ones, on high alert. the nato chafe, describing that is dangerous rhetoric might not play out. is it taking things a stage further, or is it going to make every ruin the take a breath for a minute?

or the messages clearly have not been received? president putin was very clear in his view about the escalation in ukraine. he had been clear for some time and that message wasn't received. and in fact, it's been ramped up in the us. the aggression has been ramped up, and nato continues to say, we are not a threat to russia. well, in the meantime, they're providing billions of dollars with the u. s. together billions of dollars in weapons for ukraine to kill russians, so they definitely are a threat to russia. the point is right here. this could have all been avoided. ukraine brought nothing to the nato table. the west of the us should have understood this and backed off and allowed the neutrality allow the relationship between nato, between you. because the brush is reacting to a nato threat that doesn't exist, but you know, we know rush has got to say about that. there's been buying on it, but it for years. but again, as you say,

not listen to not listen to and the threat doesn't exist. and why is it? why are the weapons being rolled into ukraine to clear it to clear threat? and we can be very sure that intelligence is also rolling in to you to ukraine as well, from the cia and from the other western intelligence services targeting data satellite information. so is a real proxy war going on here between the u. s. e u and russia ukrainians are in the middle. they're the ones that are the ones getting shot they're, they're fighting and dying for the us, not for their own independence. it's a hideous situation that we're currently awaiting the outcome of talks that hoped to be imminent. between the russian ukrainian delegations in barrows, i think maybe that's been knocked on a few hours now to the morning because of various logistics. do you hope for any progress there? well, as soon as school lensky is wise, he'll take the deal. he will agree to neutral is too big, neutral he'll,

he'll find some sort of a de escalation and the weapon ization plan. because the western propaganda is telling a different story than the reality on the ground. the pinches around mary paul are closing. the russians are fighting a different kind of war than the us did. of course when it attack yugoslavia, they're not destroying the infrastructure, but they are making serious gains. the americans in west european west because he's simply where i'm from. the west is looking at it saying, hang on ukraine, sup, sovereign country, it should be allowed, like russia to make its own choices and whatever it wants to do regarding security or anything. russia, kind of it both ways, say we're solving country we can do we want to do ukraine cod. how do you argue that? that's absolutely true, but every time the ukrainians elect a government that wants to have better relations with russia, the u. s. over throws that government so you can't see on the one hand, hey, you guys, you can do whatever you want. but if you choose wrong, we're going to overthrow your government. it doesn't work that way. what's putin's

end game here? again, people in the west to say, well, hang on, this started off with nato thing than it did to the don't pass the thing. i know it's bigger than don't bus area the, you know, a bigger contested area. but if the whole an issue, initial problem with russia is not have made so up to it's doorstep here. well, if, for instance, it's not saying you will do this. but if, for instance, it took over ukraine, what was going to be bang up against nato countries? anyway, so what's the n k? what's the solution? what's gonna happen in while he was in the western analyst never do is certainly beltway analyst in washington dc overdue, is just listen to what put and says because they all have this sort of mystical view of fruits. and rather than just listening to how he's behaving the past and what he says now, he has very specific objectives that he wants to see. come out of this, if 4 or 5 months ago, back in december, when they document was delivered for a new security architecture in the region, if that had been taken seriously instead of laughed at by the united states and

they would have negotiated, we wouldn't be at this point president, food is clear what he wants to do. he wants that those 2 reaches to be recognized as independent crimea will be permanently, russian and ukraine will be de militarized. that will, it will happen, has posted and then therefore tonight, as far as the west is concerned, go to p. r. problem. he may be not conveyed what his plan is here. strongly enough to a very skeptical west into a horrified ukraine and europe. should he be explaining anything here or does he not need to explain anything? well, you know, kevin, i don't need to tell you how it is when you try to look into a situational his objectively and say, there are certain points made by both sides. and let's think about them. course you immediately called the putin apologist. you're immediately cancelled off of networks. every network put our except for our t ironically. doesn't want to hear both sides at all. so it's difficult. and what do we do?

we want to cancel any debate in the us sen. war warner from virginia said he sent a letter to all of the tech companies, asking them to get rid of r t and get rid of with nick. so they don't want to have a debate. they don't want to listen to people who are saying, hang on a minute. let's look at this objectively. and let's not looking at it as if it's some sort of a sporting event because it's deadly serious stuff. or i don't know, thanks for coming on with falling this closely of course, dire situation tonight done mcadams, executive director at the wrong pool. peace institute have a good evening. thank you. we'll rush ukrainian delegations are traveling to as mentioned, the ukraine beller was border talks. this morning, after kim's authorities agree to the last moment to attend negotiations with no preconditions. there's been a lot of back and forth, but it's safe to say now the peace talks are happening. the russian delegation is now in the gama region in bella room, where the negotiations are expected to take place the exact location those captain

secret for security reasons. but we understand that it's going.
