3:02 am
the russian defense minister says that the guns militia forces have re taken territory from the ukrainian army, 60 kilometers beyond the previous from the line. while the new forces have reportedly advanced by 21 kilometers. and zooming out to ukraine, those dots, the cities, the russian military claim, so the deceased ought to be currently fighting for diplomatic talks on resolving the conflict. are expected to start in around one. i was time with the ukranian delegation, arriving at the border with bella. ruth, to meet with russian officials. the ortiz konstantin ross cove joins us now live from bella. ruth, with news, hopefully about those negotiations while the latest developments. constantine. yellow, peter. well, the negotiations between russia and bell was, haven't started yet, although this might happen in shortly in the next hour or so. we know that we know from the bella record ministry,
3:03 am
that the training and delegation has already. right. and, and right and delivers. and they, well, we have information that they probably wanted to have some raft after a long journey that they took go into bella, risk for poland because they want to avoid areas head by heavy fighting. but we also know that the washing delegation has already arrived at the government residents provided by the bell, the russian side. and this is where this meeting is going to happen. so now we can have a listen to a statement from the head of the russian delegation lateral we arrived here last night at a place agreed upon by the ukrainian side near the border with ukraine. we stayed up all night waiting for the ukrainian delegation to arrive. unfortunately, they have very complicated logistics. their arrival time was postponed several times during the night and only now we've received information that they'll arrive in about an hour. so at noon we should start the negotiations. well,
3:04 am
it's hard to tell if the 2 sides can find common ground in these talks. i mean, given what the be given, what key if in moscow, said publicly in the past couple of days, we can tell that their position or are we know that, for instance, the foreign minister of ukraine said that these talks are not going to be about surrender that key of quote unquote won't give up. it's land and all, and all members of the cranium delegations here in ballard to show that they have an upper hand in the upcoming torch. and because as they put it, they have been successfully repelling the russian offensive. we also heard from the training president as a landscape that he doesn't have high hopes for the outcome of these talks. so much have a listen to statement that you have to be honest. i do not believe in the outcome
3:05 am
of this meeting, but let them try so that not as a single citizen, the ukraine has any doubts, denies. president did not try to stop the war when that was at least a small chance. but the chance, nonetheless, while moscow has an absolutely different perspective, russia military official swain that is losing swathes of dead tories, that ukrainian troops are, are either retreating or getting encircled in, in different location locations across the country. and as the head of the russian delegation here in ballard, let me put a each hours each hour, just bring more casualties, and more damage to be trained in our imports. isn't that it's in key, is that interest to lay down their arms and engage in dialogue? let's see, corresponding constantino's call. thank you for bringing the latest on those upcoming folks constancy. generalist and political analyst, java,
3:06 am
ron believes these diplomatic negotiations, one of the best options for resolving the conflict. if there are, there are no box, there are no peace dogs. that means more liners in the you can know as the situation exist on the ground, it seems that the russian forces were dick order. and are you kidding me? it was maybe in a matter of days and weeks. so i think it is an option with the, you know, government not to directly speak with the russian government and whole negotiations and get concessions. unfortunately, it seems a bigger a game and which is being, being played up on the ukraine and that is their dad with the rest of perhaps it has been influenced by the military industrial complex be they are they want the robins to be sort know in the euclidean and i think that may be a part of the problem because it was very well known to everybody that there is no match to the russian military. and nonetheless, there,
3:07 am
then there will be new gram is not often father wishes that that means that the perhaps rest wants more wall in inventing that part of the world. the united nations security council is called a rare emergency meeting to focus on the situation ukraine with the u. s. and is western allies seeking to isolate moscow. russia recently used as veto, as a permanent member of the council to cancel a resolution against moscow. while china, india, and the united arab emirates all abstained on your corresponding killable reports, the representative of the united states hurled a lot of allegations at russia, accusing russia of many things, and blaming russia for the entire conflict. here's some of what we heard. 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
3:08 am
morning, president putin put rushes nucular forces on high alert. even though he is invading a country with no nuclear weapons. we urge russia to tone down is dangerous rhetoric regarding nuclear weapons. now from there are a number of countries aligned with the united states echoed these allegations from the united states, placing the blame for the conflict solely on the shoulders of russia. now we heard china take to the floor of the un security council meeting, and when china spoke, they called for a d. ask elation they urged dialogue on china supports and encourages or diplomatic efforts conducive to a peaceful settlement of the ukraine crisis and welcomes the earliest possible direct dialogue and negotiations between russia and ukraine. at the same time, china supports equal footed dialogues between the you and russia on european
3:09 am
security issues. now from there, we did see russia take the floor and debunk a large number of the allegations and he did rhetoric we heard from other countries . one theme that was very key in the remarks made by russian ambassador and a band via was fake news than the fact that there are videos circulating throughout the internet that report to be from ukraine showing russian atrocities. when in reality, some of them in been filmed in libya, some of them been filmed in syria. some of them have even been filmed, come from video games and united states. and these, this crisis broke out not as a result of the launch of the russian special military operation in ukraine, but much earlier when for 8 years you turned a blind eye to the crimes perpetrated by the ukrainian nationalists in dunbar. and again, today you did not mention at all the suffering of the residence of dunbar. that's the russian ambassador,
3:10 am
pointing out that while there is so much concern for the people of ukraine, there seems to be no concern over the past 8 years for the people of the don boss, region, the peoples public of don ads, the people's republic of lugens and what they've been enduring, the shelling the food blockades, the ban on their language, the threats against them. we had the russian ambassador taking the floor and just kind of refuting a lot of these allegation. now that was followed by a very theatrical speech by the ukranian representative in which he spoke in both english as well as russian and which she, you know, did a lot of dramatic things and made personal appeals to members of the security council. not a lot of agreement between great powers represented in the meetings, some pretty big gaps in their understanding of world events. but it seemed like one thing that did bring everyone together was a desire for the fighting to. and it seems like everyone wanted the conflict to come to an end. everyone wanted their to be some kind of resolution. so that is at
3:11 am
least one thing the countries had in common despite the fact that they had very, very different interpretations of events. benjamin child who is an economist, the power school of technology and business says that nato is in no position to lecture moscow. he 3 should not become an outpost. for consultation between major cars, we must ask the question, is nato a defensive mechanism or use it a aggressive mechanism to, to disrupt keys in the region. so we are not forgetting what is happening in yugoslavia. right. and why is nato still expense eastward? expect is, were 5 times quite as natal renege on what is commerce he has promised to russia about not expanding to the east? why is natal expanding to the doorstep of russia?
3:12 am
are now over to the don bus front lines where this video purportedly shows an explosion near the southeastern city of mario paul, the target of which is still unclear, but we are working to confirm what is going on in that area. meanwhile, forces of the done yet school of ganske republics are advancing westwards with ukranian troops reported in retreat among the liberated areas. is the village of nikolai of ker, where an elderly woman said she narrowly escaped shelly with with with the might of ukrainian troops are believed to have been surrounded by russian army forces near the se, in city of mario po, reporting on this, and other developments on the front line,
3:13 am
his correspondence broadcast df. what we are hearing is that the city of mario pl, which is ukraine's largest port a is, is now almost surrounded with, with the garrison. that is there. the russian side has said that it is nationalist elements that are putting up the stiffest resistance and that, that those units belonging to the regular military to regular formations, that they are choosing to negotiate. and in some cases, lay down their arms and return to their homes. but it is very difficult to verify this information at this time because events are developing too quickly. and because there are so few reliable reports close to the front lines where it is extremely dangerous. the situation there is that many roads have been a mind. we have received reports from the city of the dance, which is a half way between the crimea and mario ball,
3:14 am
which is at the axis of russian advance, which is a, which is where ukrainian units have planted in the city itself and in the outskirts minds for example, to, to surprise that the devastate advancing force as it is very difficult to reach mario below the vicinity of mario pal. at this point they have beat, according to reports, more than a dozen civilian casualties. here in the city of the nit victims of fun directed fire into and the neighbourhood civilian neighborhoods per places where weather apartment buildings and, and other houses we have seen are of course, soon over ukraine, different reactions to this operation. there are certainly civilians who have been happy to see russian forces but there, but they have also been those who have been less than happy to see again. russian troops advancing through through you crate on the whole with so far it is with the
3:15 am
good the good with that the, the administrations of various villages and towns there has been contact. they have a been somewhat responsible. they have tried to fly to agree try to negotiate with russian forces about responsibilities, for example, about joint patrols with police being with police being kept up to speed and allowed to do their job to prevent looting. for example, to prevent crime mud as from taking place in the aisle key that his cellphone left behind. after military operations and the lady we discussed the actions of the military coup aim to enter the city and sure order and reassure residence. they convinced me that this would not affect the life of the city in any way. there will be order in the city, our police will patrol it in the vehicle. there is, of course, also also the fact that the russian military has been keeping us up to date on its statistics, which is how many various military infrastructure sites,
3:16 am
objectives they have destroyed, which is at this point over a 1000 as well as the majority from what we understand of ukraine's air force has been destroyed many before being able to take off many jets by the helicopters before being able to take off in stripes directed at airports and air fields and hangers, and other objects belonging assets belonging to the ukrainian air force via west bank of the west bank of kia this also said to be under the control of the russian military vehicles, the situation and care fees, of course, desperate made much more so after authorities they're boosted that they had handed out almost 30030000 assault rifles $10000000.00 rounds of ammunition, r. p g's as well as grenades to the civilian population. we heard at 1st that the only a passport was required. there was footage of people just coming up that the boxes
3:17 am
and, and trucks picking up guns by the dozen and, and leaving, which has resulted in as we have seen on social media, get a verified footage anarchy in the, in the capital. a capital of ukraine. nevertheless, the russian side says it is making all efforts to avoid civilian casualties, which, which includes a bad on bombing blog to launching a rocket to missiles at indiscriminately at cities and trying to keep all stripes procedure strikes to our military infrastructure sites. and again, have reiterated that they are offering ukrainian forces. those that don't, don't belong to nationalist or neo nazi battalions. they're offering them the chance to surrender, that they will be treated with respect and allowed to return to their families. as dynette skills, ganske troops advanced, many of those so just now have the opportunity to see loved ones. one of them is
3:18 am
alex, a cedar of who managed to see his parents for the 1st time after years have been separated by the conflict theera with. so if you were, you don't, you know, mom who has a got a post huge though was a 1000000 a fortune a e u foreign policy officials have agreed to provide lethal weapons were 450000000 euros to ukraine with policy directs the usa barrels saying the block will freeze a substantial amounts of rushes, financial reserves reporting the latest on the use measures his correspondence.
3:19 am
peter oliver well, these are some of the most forcefully you sanctions that we've seen so far. we heard from the you commission, president earth lafond ally and he said that there would be some potential economic blow back on you repeat in citizens. but that the sanctions and the measures that were taken were necessary. now one of those measures is the cutting off of russia from the swift banking payment system. we heard from jo, said beryl, who's the you high representative for foreign affairs, pretty much the european union's foreign minister. and he said that it wouldn't involve all russian bank slow to disconnect the financial system of a country, which is a strongly interrelated with other countries. another economies cannot be that late. this, with the scissors overnight, we have to cooper possibility for the financial system to work in order to people to use it and to send money to their relatives. but don't worry,
3:20 am
these degree of disconnection is carefully calibrated in order to create the maximum damage to the financial system of russia. ursula fonda line confirmed that all russian aircraft would be banned from entering u. s. face. in a comprehensive move from the block. we are shutting down the e u. air space for rushes. we're proposing a prohibition on all russian owned russian registered and russian controlled aircraft. these aircraft will no more be able to land in take off over fly the territory of the european union. and that includes the private jets of oligarchs to hi representative for foreign affairs. burrell also announced that all t and sputnik would be banned from broadcasting in the european union. he made the announcement on sunday night. we also heard from ortiz, editor in chief, following,
3:21 am
not news that taking a crucial estate. jordan off the tap before the russians. information manipulation in europe lay banning russia to day and spun dick from broadcasting ended up in union. you will say your scott, i'm normally at risk 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 for what the presidents 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
3:22 am
appeared and they decided to get rid of the long lasting uncomfortable issue of us and our huge audience in this way, room will find some other way to communicate with our audience, for sure without direct broadcasting. but the people of the european union today can see how much that allotted, talk of freedom of speech costs. yes, be more the you have promised more sanctions, while russian troops remain in ukraine. we'll be looking to see what form they will take. the lexical expert john laughed under, expressed concerns about the you bonding of odd c. sing it were it would raise a disturbing precedence for freedom of speech. what's wrong with it is that it's totalitarian. if you don't suppress media outlets, that's a basic principle. if the e u is going to suppress r t and sputnik, that means european union citizens will no longer be able to watch those channels. no one forces them to watch them is the liberties of you citizens. it. i'm sure it doesn't make a slightest bit of difference to russia. ah, but it does make
3:23 am
a difference to people who want to watch out in sputnik. and i mean, we've got used to tell attorneys and for 2 years now with all the coven madness. but this is, this is so this is in the same category and indicates what, what laws is she is claiming to be operating under lee. you doesn't have that authority any more than as the authority. by the way, as far as i know, to close air spaces, you mentioned in your report above all, i mean, independently of the issue between russia and they turn ukraine. i think anyone watching this, any european citizen watching this should be deeply preoccupied by the assault on his own rights, his or her own rights. you mentioned just now in your report from london about the seizure of assets belonging to russian oligarchs in london. what happened to due process, what happened to property rights? and we really saying that from one day to the next, somebody's property can be taken away just because they are deemed to be politically close to russia. this is literally dictatorship. i don't want to sound hysterical, but somebody has to
3:24 am
a pulley alarm bell on this and say that these kinds of measures are undermine the very thing which are the british government and other european governments claim to be standing full, namely the rule of law and democracy but even a person has reacted sorts. he described as aggressive language from nate. so members and a big non big new pledges of arms supplies to ukraine by putting russia strategic forces, including nuclear weapons on high alerts, was really clear as you can see, western countries and not only taking unfriendly actions towards a nation in the economic sector. i'm referring to the illegitimate sanctions that everyone is aware of. however, top officials of nato member states are also using aggressive language towards our country. that's why i'm ordering the defense minister and chief of staff to put the russian army deterrent forces on special alert. rushes, strategic forces include both nuclear and non nuclear units, long range bombers,
3:25 am
submarines, warships, and jets. the islands also links of miss, are worn in systems on defenses, against attacks from space. and western leaders have express grave concerns about putin's decision while ramping up their miniature presence in eastern europe, which russia, as long as cited as a threat to his national security. this is really a pattern that we've seen from president couldn't, through the course of this conflict, which is manufacturing threats that don't exist in order to justify further aggression and the global community. and the american people should look at it through that prism. this is dangerous rhetoric, that's the reason why we are both provide support to crane, but also what we owe to last 2 weeks amongst a significant increase the presence of nato in the eastern part to lauren's the you until the foreign powers are providing millions of euro's worth of ministry supplies to ukraine with you saying it'll give 450000000 euros with a weaponry germany is sending a 1000 on to tank weapons and 500 sting guarantee aircraft systems. while demarcus
3:26 am
also announced plans to send anti tank weapons, sweden meanwhile is sending 5000 done to tank weapons as well as body armor and over 100000 field russians. earlier we heard from human rights and lay below it, done cavalier who express concerns that nato housed and fights little interest in resolving the conflict. i'm very concerned about that. i mean, so, 1st of all, let's face it, it seems to me that nato, and in particular, the united states did everything they could want to provoke this war to provoke russia into it, and to egg ukraine on, into acting in aggressive ways themselves. for example, with zalinski saying very recently that maybe she get nuclear weapons again, that's what i understand, may have tipped it. so in the meantime they provoked this, then when it happened, they basically stood back and watched it happen in ab and watching and happen. and
3:27 am
now that they're entering piece talks, they're sending and lethal military aid. again, what's nato due to me? this is only adding fuel to the fire. it does not contribute to peace talks. and again, it's just or provocation. well, that's all for now. my name's peter scott, and i'll be back again in around 30 minutes with all the latest developments in the ukraine crisis on as well, those possible diplomatic talks. thank you. look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings, except where such order that conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence and the point obviously is to rate trust rather than fear i would like to take on various jobs
3:28 am
with artificial intelligence, real summoning with a robot must protect its own existence with long. i won't show the wrong one. i just don't know. i mean, you will have to shape out this thing becomes the advocate and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves will the part we choose to look for common ground. with
3:29 am
awe on november, the 3rd 1945, just a month after the war ended, the u. s. joint chiefs of staff receive report number 3 to 9. select 20 targets to attack in the soviet union with nuclear bombs. the time was right. is the u. s. s o was devastated by wall it either states. last about 400000 people had the brit sloss less than the americans did. and the soviet suffered 27000000 deaths bmw 27000000 is an incredible number but john
