a to a russian delegation arrived for a 2nd round of p, think education with ukraine set to take place on thursday, day 7 of russia's military operations in ukraine. moscow confounded a, talked at television tower in key. russia also claims to have taken control of the southern feel kind of song or the print inside the fighting is still ongoing. and on the other side of the conflict with destruction of poems in the aftermath of a bottle in they don't boss, region wounded, including children require medical effect in the world. but it's not very scary, but i'm afraid my room is near the basement and there is a whole right there. under you politicians demand even harsher sanctions against moscow on to the blog, bombs, a say,

say to that works with the brothels. also moving to count some russian banks out of the international financial transactions with hello and welcome to all the international special coverage of russia's military operation in ukraine. my name is eula pablo. now the head of the russian delegation says he expects care of officials to arrive for talks on thursday. the tools had been set to start already, but had been postponed. constantine rush, cobra now from belarus. the 2nd round of talks between russia and ukraine is going to be held to morrow morning. and that is because of a complicated logistics that the training side is facing. we have to understand that ah, the cranium. they don't want to go from keith, directly towards bowers, and this is something that already happened before around one. so instead they go

from key if towards a poland 1st and poland give provides them with a helicopter, which transfers them to under the bell, russian territory. from there they are, go into this specific place where we're now, so it's a, it's a bit of a long journey, and this is why they said that they want to freshen up, get some breast. and the russian delegation out of the russian delegation said that they absolutely understand this and that they ready ought to, to wait, ah, now div. i gotta tell you that. so there is a lot of security arrangements around these talks. and for instance, i can tell you that we, the media were, we are strongly advise not to give away exact locations where a film any specific building surround this place. this is why we can go live a from, from this place with an absolute neutral background. but what i can tell you is that it's someplace at the border between a poland and a bell, a ruse. and this is,

this place was chosen mutually by the russian and ukrainian side because it's mutually convenient for them. ah, and this is also an area where there is that it's, it's the largest, europe's largest for us here, cold glove, your scale, boucher and it's famous because back in 1991 of the famous belive s a courts were signed here between ah, russian, ukrainian and belive our leaders which effectively to sold the soviet union. so this is how displace a went down in history. ah, also i can tell you that i before this talk publicly neither side has changed. it stands ah, we at winter say that keith wants an immediate cease fire and a complete withdrawal of all russian troops of, from, from ukraine, clothing from crimea, and, and don bass region. moscow wants ukraine to assume a neutral status without a lying with western powers. as well as ought to recognize crimea as russian territory and dominates can lugens people's republics as independent states. so i

guess it's everyone's guess or whether the 2 sides will be able to come out with something ah, from to morrow's talks and l have russian foreign minister gala bro of tell the ultra 0 news network how we go to the current crisis. we'll see it was similar, but the little the, the key is we've been trying to appeal to the conscience of the west and try to bring reason to this regime which you are taking on ultra radical and neo nazi outlines. and the west did not want to do anything because ukraine was used as a tool to deter russia even before 2014. i'm amazed to listen to the comments of european and especially german politicians when they deliver they are obliged to supply weapons to ukraine. what's that supposed to mean understanding historical guilt makes germany support neo nazis. it causes strange associations and the live on the land said that europe has never been so close to ukraine. this is probably

a signal that as long as you are russell phobe, as long as you are a fascist, as long as you are a neo nazi, everything is allowed to you recall at least a closely similar reaction to what russia is doing in ukraine, restoring justice when hundreds of thousands of iraqis libyan syrians, residents of other countries were killed, where the united states and its allies from the democratic camp directed their eyes thousands of kilometers from the borders. it was enough for the united states. this threatened the national security and look at the history that has risen regarding threats to national security right on our board. i did not rule out the someone wanted russia to get my head and the men made conflict created by the west. we are able to resist any pressure if anyone helped out and i recommend reading listen histories are for the 1st the russian defense ministry has confirmed that almost 500 over sat its members have been killed in ukraine. they also estimate ukrainian military losses at more than 2800 ukraine's defense ministry claims that the number

of russia military service men code and the war is much now and effort, you can see a massive explosion that took place late on tuesday with claims of smoke filling the sky, it was reportedly seen the ukraine air force base. as of now, no information is available about possible casualties. he's now another video from the region in ukraine, 2nd largest city of high calls. you can see flashes called by intentionally throughout the night. we had from a local woman hiding in a basement. it is already the 5th day. we are here in the basement. we are worried very much and it is very scary. we have small children, elderly people, and frankly speaking, it is very frightening. it is a nightmare and if you from the inside very strongly, this cannot be explained with words. you're creating a president, emsella vimeo. the landscape says that more than 6000 russian soldiers have been

killed or wounded over the past week. moscow has denied that claim unseen as it has inflicted casualties among the ukrainian military. meanwhile, the landscape says key of need security guarantees from the west if it isn't allowed to join nato. and in the lugens can don't ask people's republics, residents continue to endure intense battle between the ukrainian military and local militia forces. base mob now shows what's been happening, that with the red dots highlighting the major safe, his where fighting is being reported. russia defense ministry claimed the guns people's militia has advanced against the ukrainian army by another 3 kilometers beyond monday's front line. and for the nav forces they've reported lead vaughn 16 kilometers, be on previous front lines. now better footage where guessing from they don't boss return amid apparent shelling by the ukrainian ami. a missile have destroyed cons and residential buildings in the capital city of the don't ask people's republic.

the number of casualties are not yet known, but the st hail to don't, as has warned, there may be victims under the rubble as rescue operations continue. were received this footage from 2 villagers in the lou ganske, a region where la guns people's am in the shop, taken a ukrainian army stronghold as well as a vehicle checkpoint, the militia, and that more than 40 towns and villages. and they don't boss, have now been liberated our correspondent maria fin notion or repulse now from the ground, the joint center full coordination and control on cease fire report that the ukrainian army has continued to shall the territory av lugens car republic. meanwhile, the republican peoples militia say that the or forces are continuing to advance further condition. chris, some 20 kilometers north. august can, i can tell you it literally looks like a ghost town. the sign on this gate says jose, i was you, meaning it's in russian. the owners are alive,

most of the residents fled their homes, left this village back in 2014. what happened? then? there were several air bombs targeting this innocent village. now, with a control restored here in this village, local residence start slowly coming back here, but not everybody is lucky to get a home to return to me how he college hasn't been here since 2014 for the 1st time in 8 years, he enters his house, did anyone lit, stay in your house? then with joe watched the movie to go with her. it didn't go to woodson, where she will soon live. this is me hale's house, but he told me that he cannot enter which morning wanted to move just anymore what you've done. but the most on the yes. what does it in your storms in your on is this mold which are mean the mold, which will almost kick a canyon road for thermal store. oh, booklets, g o grants. clinton at least

family can come back here, but at least now they have a place again to call home and to return to it's a very little village, but there is a railway station just nearby. and this is how it became kind of like strategic point for, for all forces and all of them one wanted to take control over it. these men, me how it was all these 8 years under the ukrainian control. mm hm. you hear me. yes. trail you for years you, you so you what do you, what you're here, what's just the thought of my will. dormer, the yes. social muscle chain. lack of ice. as in boy, yellow is our to the thought. come managerial it new thing, a dealer. really let's go across with shimaya. there was teacher, sir, gave an annual you showed the governor lum williams. reason who is poor to live with them is go your call in the sure reason i'm mum. voice him lip. nas up. nice guy. utica little natural reason. i knew lucy lynn must see war on

a lie to know now more than 500 children from the conflict written don boss region i have begun attending schools in rushes and neighboring a roster off region. however, more than 1800 students still remain in a temporary accommodation center. as he went to one of the schools that has welcomed the children evacuated from the war zone. 0, one mm. ah, i'm seeing that we had strong explosions in the morning. so i didn't go to school, then in the evening we were told to evacuate to rust. all my new classmates came

when we were at the temporary accommodation center. they visited and helped us. i've been well received here. every once friendly. it's really good when there's no explosions over our heads. no shelling a don't to come back in the don. yes. for public. i had to skip school several times. one day in december 2016, a shell flew into our house, all the windows collapsed. luckily no one was injured, but the next day i didn't go to school. it's good when you were at school. there was a peaceful sky over your heads and no one is shooting. ah, you'd ready to move from conversations with your mothers. we realized that the children of course, wanted to return home as soon as possible, but we are ready to teach them as long to pass through during this emergency situation and by decree or they were stop reaching scott, ah

well reports hob hearing in the media and on social networks about russian citizens facing discrimination, western countries g to that nationality elsie's policy explains it's one thing to blame the russian government for ordering movements in ukraine. but it's quite another to put the responsibility on the shoulders of ordinary russians who are now feeling discriminated against and isolated, not to mention being banished. russian, conductor valerie, get, give, has refused to condemn his own country. and he is paying the price with immediate effect. there will be no further concerts by the munich philharmonic orchestra under his direction. other countries of also refused to cooperate with get give and for not playing. they accuse his korea is crumbling, internationally, fame,

performer i met. net trip cut has also been banned from the bavarian opera. russian sport is also under attack, and football is, are no longer allowed to play fee for and you a for have today decided together that all russian teams, whether national representative teams or club teams shall be suspended from participation in both fee for and the way for competitions until further notice and the olympic committee is following suit. the international olympic committee executive board strongly urges international sports federations and organizes of sports events worldwide to do everything in their power to ensure that no athletes or sports official from russia or bell roost be allowed to take part under the name of russia or bella. ruth, russian or better russian nationals, theaters, individuals, or teams, should be accepted only as neutral athletes or neutral teams. no national symbols, colors, flags, or anthems should be displayed. and not to mention the eurovision song contest

whose organizer say russia participation would bring the competition into disrepute . it's certainly flies in the face of the european union, insisting that it's not targeting ordinary people. they want to stay where we are not targeting, rushing people. many of them focus against the senseless war and i want to salute the courage. meanwhile, ordinary citizens are being discriminated against just for being russian. i'm not ashamed to say i'm russian, but i'm a bit afraid i'm worried society will have this perception that all russians are bad. and they were many cases of people being put to shame, but also split. there's only one way to counter this barrage of bruce, a phobia, by drawing attention to the double standards that are employed in the west when doing russia. this is currently the only way to at least cool their collective sentiment in regard to russian citizens. in my opinion, the term double standards is widely used. now we see how they're applied in math

when russian speaking ukrainians were discriminated against ukraine when the main right the right to life russians and the don bass was violated. nobody paid attention to that. they thought it had nothing to do with human rights, and that it was a domestic affair with an ukraine. this reaction has led to what ukraine has been doing for a long time. today. they've forgotten what's been happening in the dom bass for over 7 years. they've forgotten what's been happening in ukraine lately. now they just talk about russians is the main violators of human rights. this issue requires attention, appointment, and powerful african proverb says that when elephant fight, it's the grass that suffers. it's one thing that the you and western countries of pushing back on moscow, but it's not clear why they choose to punish ordinary people and what that can achieve. meanwhile, the international paralympic communities, as russian and bell russian athletes will now take part in the beijing winter, paralympics and neutral status. the committee says it's because of that countries

roles and the war against ukraine. several countries had demanded that russians powering pins before thrown out all the games altogether. the fact of western sanctions has also spread into space with rushes ross. costless warning is can no longer carry out all its international obligations due to the restrictions they had . ross cosmos also warns that ukrainian hacker is committed war crimes that are incredibly dangerous for being time global community by trying to hack their space systems. last yes, from august, 1st with many are asking us know about how much the attack, what ukrainian hacker has affected the roof cosmos, flight control systems and the over the group. i want to say this is fake. there were indeed such attempts to break into the flight control systems, but our security system automatically repelled them. and secondly, i want to warn those who continue to do this, that this is a crime that should be severely punished. the removal of

a space group of any country from duty is an act of war. such an act can lead to disorientation of space apparatus and they can fall to the grounds. i think this is a crime against humanity. we will search for those who organize these attacks and we will pass all the relevant information to lower enforcement agencies to initiate criminal cases. what was that just fancy sanctions against the russian space program? we introduced a long time ago back in 2014. they existed before as well. the plan was to completely reset, okay. publicity for creating spacecraft. but we switched from imports to domestic supplies. and after losing a couple of years, which of course was painful, we were able to build our own devices and will continue to make them. now the europeans have repeated these sanctions. it is quite obvious that their intention is to bring down the russian rocket and space industry. we consider this a war declared against stuff. therefore we will have to respond just as harshly because cooperation in space does not allow such actions. in fact,

sanctions against rough cost most will not stop for of course, most, it is difficult to stop us. we have many other customers who do not have bay american sanctions. we will now corporate with them absolutely openly. but the western coalition is dest, uncontrollably smashing international scientific projects. eugene americans are pragmatic people. they want to maintain corporation with russia within the international space station, despite the numerous sanctions, why? because it is impossible to manage the space station without us. we're responsible for his navigation and fuel delivery and not talking about the interdependence of all control systems. therefore, we will closely monitor the actions of our american partners, and if they continue to be hostile will return to the question of the existence of the international space station. i would not like such a scenario because i expect that the americans will cool down you more such a new one. now joe biden has focused his fast state of the union speech on the ukraine conflict. surprising critics who note mounting domestic problems in the u.

s. he said, washington has joined the e. u, enclosing its air space to russian flights, but specifies that american forces won't participate in the conflict with russia. are inflicting pain on russia and supporting the people of ukraine. prudence now isolated from world more than he has ever been. i am an archie and we will join our allies and closing off american aerospace to all russian flies. i did it, but let me be more for he will not engage and will not engage in the conflict. good russian forces in ukraine. our forces not going to europe to fight ukraine, but to defend our nato allies. the read to put aside to keep moving west. meanwhile, e, you politicians have called on the block to impose even harsher sanctions against russia over the conflict in ukraine as the

e. u has already bond news outlets out. he and sputnik, as well as a prude. excluding many russian banks from the swift international transaction system. the block is also considering restrictions on oil and gas in port ortiz, charlotte davinsky reports will these restrictions directly impact arty international and also our sister station r t fronts. here in france, what it means is that our channels are no longer allowed to podcast. whether that be on applications on a telephone by the internet, or even on television subscription services across the european union. those are new sanctions that have come into force on wednesday. now it comes as the e u says it has to stand in solidarity with ukraine as this war plays out. we are able to, the other 2 are very pretty, into the south of surgeons whist, message consequences for russia. but also to be honest,

the through the web address for us, where the tradition of turn veterans is additional for democratic principles does aggression of international law. well, the ear is using a special sanctions regime to bypass the ordinary media licenses that apply. so to give you an example, artie france or sister station was given a renewed license to boot cost in france just back in 2020 a. despite that under the sanctions regime that can be taken off immediately. now artie frances denounced the action as saying that this is simply censorship. the decision to banner channel, which currently has $176.00 employees, including more than $100.00 journalist, is a violation of the rule of law and goes against the very principles of freedom of speech. nothing can justify the censorship. now there has been criticism over decision not just by one union of journalists, but also by the president of serbia. of course, serbia is not an u country,

but the president saying, this is what he said when they talk about freedoms. what they mean really, in terms of freedom of the press, is the only freedom that they're thinking of is the freedom for themselves. now in a separate development today, european energy mean this is going to meet to basically look at the use reliance on russian energy supply. so just to give you a sense, 40 percent of gas he used here in the you 35 percent of crude oil, more than 40 percent of coal supplies all come from russia. and the e. u is desperate to win itself off those supplies. as a result of not just the sanctions, but the fear that they say that russia could potentially turn off the gas supplies to europe. we've also heard from germany that says it regrets it's heavy reliance in the past on russian energy. as for germany, we have to admit that in the past we relied 4 to one sided leon energy impulse from

russia. germany is more dependent than other european countries in this regard. this means there is an obligation to get rid of this quickly. now other sanctions coming to bite on wednesday include the fact that certain russian banks are going to be excluded from the swift messenger service. all of the sanctions, the idea from the european union and the u. k. is to have a heavy financial and economic burden on the russian economy. we do also know that there has been further help for that via companies from the united states, such as apple, g, boeing and fort wall said that they have now suspended at their sales, their transactions in the russian federation. and in another development are we know on tuesday that president zalinski ukraine once again calls on the european union to look at immediate ascension for his country to the block. as a result of that, emmy peas on tuesday voted to ask for institutions to start looking at how

this could happen. now, this is a non binding vote. it doesn't mean that ukraine is about to join the european union. what it does signal though, is that the e u is showing that it has solidarity with ukraine and it, does ukraine, potentially in the future, being an e member and as ease from all. hi this our i was i was more insight jimenez ah with a nelson as well. yeah. wow. div easy. wow. finance. oh

yeah. or you know it's a fun slide. yes. south. yeah. thrashing a south and i was i really need to get a new dock. awesome. or, you know, watch them up all mutable. upright peter is. emma? yeah. full of gary. of whom shall i vision kim's room? she thought seriously. a yes, my thought or jane in the again, your fortune very up. my be a lot about this morning. just financial aa 3 united states has had a variety of tools,

news, and tax on other countries. economic sanctions are, are often just a beginning. another thing you like to do is place some military pressure on the countries that you're talking about. ah, and there has to be an effort to demonize that country and the leader of that country. we have a responsibility for the whole world and we need to make rules for the rest because without out there with. mm. oh, a

because the advocate and engagement it was betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. ah, ah. hello and welcome to cross top where all things are considered. i'm peter lavelle, russia a special military operation and ukraine has changed the world in many ways. it is forcing the u. s. and its allies to rethink and reassess global security. we should not be surprised by this. after all,

the post cold war era is over. what will replace it is still open the question. i cross sucking the situation in ukraine. i'm joined by my guess, daniel mc, adams in lake jackson. he is the executive director of the ron paul institute for peace and prosperity. intense mania. we have had see he is a conflict consultant and a retired u. s. foreign service officer. and here in moscow we have maxime suits. gov. he is the director of the center for advanced american studies at moscow state institute for international relations. hi gentlemen, crosswalk rules and effect. that means you can jump in any time you want and i will appreciate it. i want to say all 3 of you before we get started. we live in very tragic times. we did, we cannot predict the future, but we saw how it failed international order brought about a catastrophe for just about everybody involved. i just want to say that up frontier daniel, i'm in my inter.
