a with a nato emergency summit rejects ukraine's request to impose a no fly zone in the country in response to slammed the alliance for weakness on a luck on direction. john boss, army recaptures based strategic don upset just yet r t reports from the hearts. all of a, it's not hoping for a brighter future after years of being and firing like sweeping economic and social restrictions imposed by the western russia begin to effect ordinary citizens, while even russian caps find themselves as target. ah,

wherever you're catching the program from today across the globe. welcome to moscow on to the news, our and r t. i'm, you know, neil as russia's military operation in ukraine enters a 10th day. let's start by taking a look at the latest developments in the conflict. a nato emergency summit has rejected the idea of imposing a no fly zone in ukraine. in response, ukraine's president for the mirror, zelinski accused the alliance of wickedness. cnn and bloomberg are the latest media organizations to suspend the work in russia because of the situation in ukraine. the u. s. senate, it's been invited to speak to the ukranian president via zune, and the head of a 3rd round of peace talks. the kremlin urges kia to take into account russia's security concerns to end the conflict on fierce fighting in ukraine continues along the front line. we'll be looking at some of those in more detail shortly.

now, unexplored re meeting assets calls of nato. foreign ministers has been held in condemnation of russia's military offensive against ukraine. however, one of the only other points everyone agreed on was to strongly rejecting no fly zone over ukraine, which k was seeking. there are fierce such a move could spark a new world war. yeah, the saw the spiration but also believe love if we do that will end up with something that could end in a full fish war in your voice menu items are causing marsh mornings over with regard to of the no fly zone. i think one of the responsibilities we have, even as we are ah, doing everything we can to give the ukrainian of people that means to defend themselves effectively against russia. we also have responsibility as a secretary general said,

to ensure that the war doesn't spill over even beyond ukraine will. in response, ukraine's president didn't hold back his anger, saying those at the meeting will have blood on their hands. at the sloppy, simon, the nato summit was a very weak and directionless summit. for 9 days. we've seen a brutal war. will they want to continue? it'll boom, knowing that a new strike is inevitable, nato made a consenting decision not to close ukrainian airspace national from this day. those who die will die because of you to die. leon smith, the fake all the latest of all that's less cross live to human rights on labor lawyer on north her dumb cove. alec dan, thanks for taking the time today. so the nato emergency summit ended with i smooth nothing but condemnation really. and what was the purpose of the meeting as you see it? well, i mean, i think the purpose was to consider, obviously what nato might do if anything, to support ukraine at this moment. and as you say,

they ultimately decided not to impose no flies on which by the way, i agree they should not do that. when we look at that, for example, libya when that was imposed, it became much more of a conflict in the course of destroyed libya. so no fly zones are very serious affairs. indeed, at the same time, i can understand zalinski frustration because look may tow in the us, kind of a, you know, prodded ukraine in more provocative acts against russia. and then once russia invaded nato pretty much stood aside and watched it all happened. so from his point of view, i could see that he would feel betrayed. yeah, that language that he used seeing those at the meeting in nato, a blood on their hands. do you think though he really expected some sort of action to follow through on nuts, at desire for a no fly? so i do. i think, i think so lensky, if he,

if he had not been under the impression that nato would back him up from the beginning, my guess is he might have taken a different stance towards russia. remember, zelinski became more and more strident knowing even saying he might know, you know, seek nuclear weapons again, that seemed to be one of the last straws that might have led to this invasion. i don't think he'd be talking like that if he, unless he thought that nato would come back him up, which of course they haven't. and now i would just say that nate already as blood on its hands in a situation i nato, i think, had the usaa nato simply told russia that ukraine would never be admitted to nato. that would have been a big step towards preventing office and they refused. and yet again, when you cranes attack, they certainly made a clear ukraine is not part of it yet. oh, so a lot of mixed signals here were given by nato, and i think it is a, you know,

been disastrous here in russia. donna, another aspect, a number of western media have lath amid the situation in ukraine, cnn, bloomberg. the latest before that we saw the bon on russian media in the west. and do you see the mutual bond bombardments, i suppose, ever, ever ending at the moment? it doesn't seem like it. like, how will nations learn to listen to each other if they're silenced each other now? well, look, i oppose this type of bay, and obviously i'm here on our tea right now. i'm or on our tea a lot, i think provides a lot of good information. i don't think it should be they, and in the west, as many western countries are moving to do i, it's extraordinary. i mean, he just didn't see this thing. even during the cold war, you know, kennedy and khrushchev talked to each other, even during the cuban missile crisis. that's how it got resolved. of course, was

a kennedy making a deal with crew chef over missiles in turkey exchange for the missiles to be taken out of cuba. and a look. we've been led to this situation because of the unwillingness of the u. s. leaders to speak to the rush, their russian counterparts. and you know, it's tragic. it all i can say is we need to listen to the other side even to us. people you think are your adversaries, or maybe especially those you think are your adversaries. of course, as you know, the corleone's would say, you know, keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer. i mean, you have to deal with those people or else he's got an echo chamber, i suppose. just the point on the sanctions. what's your sense? these western sanctions against moscow? do you think more still to come or the gun to just keep going on until some kind of reaction is met by moscow?

well, it may be that that will happen. i mean, my firm belief is that the west, in particular, the united states wanted these sanctions anyway all along. they, how provoke this conflict is a pretext for these sanctions. but they're going to be disastrous for, for poor and working people, both in russia and in the west. we're already seeing the very interesting point on isn't it? like also in the west, you've got these gas prices, they're all time high and i'm not just the start of it. yeah. so it, that is going to benefit oil companies. right. and of course, the defense contractors are making money off the war to so you know, it will benefit those that the, our ruling class wanted to benefit, but it will hurt them poor people as the sanctions always do again. and it will hurt them in the east to war, hurt them in the west. and of course, even notice that the bite and sanctioned the to break away republics in ukraine like, you know, why would you punish them? you know, so none of this is particularly well targeted and it will lead to human suffering.

but again, there will be people that make huge profits often the other day we saw the 2nd round of talks on their ukraine, russian ballard roost. the cremins been talking off the the 3rd stage do hold much hope of thought of what's going to come from it. look, i'm always hopeful. i hope this war and war is terror is a terrible thing. i think there are ways for this war to and frankly, assurances that could have been made initially to prevent it. i might stop it now. i'm sure i'm hopeful, i'm always always, i hold out hope for peace. i do wanna let you go though, without just mentioning one thing that has made headlines, the u. s. senator lindsey graham calling for president putin to be assassinated. where does that leave any kind of diplomacy it? yeah, i mean it's, it's a ridiculous thing to say, a course, if, if, if, if you know someone in the duma said that about bite in that he should be

assassinated. that would be considered properly enable thing to say. and that was an evil thing for graham to say, yeah, no, this is out of control. and again, even during the cold war, you'd see kennedy hugging cru shop. i mean, you know, nixon visiting mouse a tom this is not the way to treat world leaders and it, it will lead to nowhere but. 1 the road to perdition, i believe. don, thanks is also coming on and sharing your view live on the program, done conflict, human rights and labor lawyer and author. thank you. ok, let's move to a city now in the loop ganske region, which after days of fierce fighting has been taken by the don boss, army and locals have finally been able to leave their basements. ortiz maria phenomena file this report from their this is just yet, the name of this town sounds exactly the same in russia and ukraine in languages.

it means happiness in english, but it wasn't exactly lacking. it is on the very front line. it has been dramatically destroyed. locals even compare it with stalingrad, located near a river on ester teaching, high point chest here. so fears shelling, 8 years ago, dear in caves, so cold counter terror, reparation in this region, racing battles over the town between the ukrainian military and the army of de la ganske republic, left even more scars fiercely. but there is some sort of melee combat going on endlessly for a week. i don't know where they are shooting from. maybe the trees may be somewhere else, but it forces us to hide in the basement home to at least 12000 people a decade to go to day, the town is deserted and allies of those who decided to stay seemed to have turned into quest for survival you might cure is some kind of projectile stuck. i don't know what it is. i am not a military man, but if there were no pillars,

2 houses would have been destroyed. will post martial law has been introduced. there are road blocks with constant checking. i don't know how to live normally if you can't do anything and go anywhere as everything is mine. when we were in town, there was no electricity, no gas, no running water, no connection. if you shop still functioning, closed before noon church services, a held only on sundays, the shelling left one of the walls destroyed. it's cold and dangerous inside. it's hard to believe this place is habitable, this is there a commendation for population and how to behave during war during chalet. like find a concrete wall, if you are outside a lay down on the ground. if you are in the field and hear what smart rad is not exactly a good idea, like wearing uniform, for example, approaching windows were not leaving. but moving to another apartment where they're

at least intact windows. it's hard to live there with them being broken. then you authority say work has already begun to repair infrastructure and provide security for locals. the reason so hope that one day, the town so brightly named happiness can finally find it once again. the notion of r, t from gesture in the logan's gray, public fighting rages in other areas between russian troops and ukraine. forces this on verified footage from the capitol shows a huge explosion said to be in the western part of the city, are raid sirens are still being signed it occasionally in kiev, with authorities asking people not to leave there yet. let's see some more footage. this is from har called showing smoke rising above a residential area. after, on the ledge missile strike local authorities say the ukrainian military is launched a contra offensive against at russia,

within the region. or moscow claims artillery is being deliberately placed in residential areas. and indeed, a sea of refugees continue to flee. the country hears footage from the ne pro railway station showing people trying to cross the tracks and helping each other at which the platform incidents of looting, helping reported throughout the country as well. really interesting footage here showing what's going on. shopping centers, stripped of expensive goods and chemist as well. all that drugs amid the chaos that. meanwhile, the city of nikolai of, and the side, so intensive fighting local authorities, claim ukrainian troops managed to repel on the truck. there, however, bottles continue in its suburbs. also ukrainian security forces have destroyed a railroad bridge between ukraine an unrecognized and will jovian republic. the

bridge was used for passenger and freight traffic. the army has been destroying a number of bridges inside the country. the stop the advance of russian troops and in the ukrainian city of sunni, a nationalist brigade, has allegedly shells accommodation, housing, indian students, according to the russian defense ministry. let's take a look. 5 people are understood to have been injured in the it's called the fates of another 11 is on known. the video seeing right now is from the local student coordinator. he sees around 600 people, remains stronger than the building. they've got no access to electricity or indeed washer. they've reportedly been forced to melt snow for something to drink. there's been no comment from ukraine to the flames. and the internalised solid who dean

zane blind was indian students i've been going through with i don't know what i it's a very bad situation that most of this same day they had either walk out almost 50 kilometers. many i've been without food and many of the guys were at close to the bothers were beaten, you know, and other students that are reports of miss be heading with the city and at the polar border especially, she was saying that the situation was so bad that they will not allow me and after so much when they were allowed to go inside, there was so much, you know, that discrimination against them saying that that in years are not allowed or not allowed. so it seems all the job within the ukraine. and when they were cross, it could be either bought or that could be for ball and nobody heads in

the shouldn't. coming to daddy, my telling that story is part of the horrible. just to add to that piece, it is estimated. there are thousands of indian students still in the region and efforts are underway to help with their evacuation. but they rushed in and buster designate to deli said there are major hurdles. in these abilities, india reached out to us. how can we immediately responded to the request, we agreed to allocate buses to relocate this group of indian citizens to russia, and then fly them to india. however, we are now incapable of helping them because they are stuck in the area where our military is not present. now the main thing is to ensure that they moved it was not subject to ukrainian shelling. so they can then be moved to russian territory safely. our rescue team is up and running and waiting for them. we saw the indians themselves and tv and on social media, same they are the victims of attacks by ukrainian extremists on the ukraine, poland border, according to them,

they are subject to violence because of india's independence stance on the ukrainian conflict of the un security council. and other international venues we have said multiple times, the indian independent foreign policy and it's going influence globally, is welcome. russia has never executed any pressure on india. as you know, delhi is currently subject to us prussia, which i think is wrong and futile when it comes to a fall out and bought us. we're relations to the ongoing situation. you know, this course is full of implications for the whole world and our ties are not the exception. the degree of this impact can hardly be assessed. now, we believe our relation to developing in the spirit of mutual interest and have a strategic nature. russia and ukraine have agreed on creating humanitarian corridors for civilians in ukraine as well as delivering food and medicine to the conflict zones. during the 2nd round of peace talks, which wrapped up on thursday at both sides said that civilians would be evacuated

through safe zones. as the fire has been engraved in the evacuation areas. president lensky says that the next 24 hours from now will be critical in establishing the corridors and beginning those evacuations. in russia has sent its 1st batch of humanitarian aid to the ukrainian city of mili to pull. in this footage, you can see the convoy heading to the city in the countryside face more than a 100 tons of aid for civilians has been supplied there for us in the country. and can tell us more. ortiz rightcast, if one of the most pressing concerns. now is the humanitarian situation in ukraine, the fighting there has severely that's robbed that supply chains and people are finding it difficult to find food. so here and crimea, ah, efforts are being made to supply people who desperately need that food with various

canned foods as well. as sugar sold, buckwheat, the essentials, to see them through the worst of the fighting in all more than a 100 tons of desperately needed food. the delivery of which has fallen on russia's emergency services at stake and not only people's lives, but the goodwill of the population. the city of mulatto population, 100000. it was liberated by russian troops largely without a fight. it is deemed somewhat safe and is the 1st destination for these humanitarian a drugs out of crimea. russia's mission here is to liberate, lot occupied, as stated by putin himself, within hours of delivery. thousands across the city headed for distribution points where you go to the stalls, look around the city and you'll understand why we're here. do the same right? difficulties getting hold of products. maxine and there are long keys,

every layer which it was the year the citizens are very happy or peaceful people are happy, merely a host. as we spoke to more and more people are understanding of what happened here . over the last 8 years, grew clear, a violent ideological pudge a reign of terror by the nationalists and neo nazis where any ideology but there is any positive opinion of russia was brutally suppressed, murders, kidnappings, beatings and threats abounded new order. yes, nationalists have come to the city that you can't really identify them until they gather in groups. the situation is better now was earlier, there was much destruction, looters, robbing taking away everything. it was madness. i support the russian operation. we don't need such nationalism. we will need to live in peace while there wasn't all that much fighting here and mellow topo that isn't to say there wasn't any. this

ukrainian t 64 reportedly tank was destroyed ah, when it was caught by russian units entering the city. if along with a truck and apparently an armored personnel carrier which were evidently blasted upon the battle, familiar to bull was brief and tame in comparison to other cities. the militaries job here is done. the next phase isn't up the troops. it is prosecutors and investigators working to identify and arrest nationalists and neo nazi still in the city. those complicit in horrific crimes. not only in the dom boss, but all over ukraine. and as they work, we will learn the true scale of radical right wing tara, that gripped you grade 4 years was sweeping sanctions. i've been stopped on rush in response to what is occurring in ukraine and the country seeing various firms quit

the country and indeed a refusal at to cooperate with its service sector. a significant number of constraints are already in place. many more are still promised, looking further into the issue for us. our tea. silly drink rushes being punished to make sure moscow behaves correct. the sanctions will end if prudent ends this war and helps rebuild ukraine. reestablish his peace and recognizes the country sovereignty and territorial integrity. so it must be that the sanctions have one ultimate goal to make the russian army and it's offensive in ukraine once and for all. but lots of the measures put ford already in place, barely have anything to do with the, the russian men in uniform or the people in charge. i mean those responsible for sending them to ukraine. it's like we're witnessing a grand international canceling russia contest where countries and businesses

compete and how they're going to make things worse for russian soldiers. but why also russian cats or russian interior designers. otherwise, how do you explain a ban on kitty's from this country at international exhibitions or the decision by sweetest furden, her jain to care, to abandon russia house, throwing moscow out of inter paul and international police un going to help to de canada and other close partners or calling to suspend russia from interpol. we're supporting this because we believe that international law enforcement cooperation depends on a collective commitment to the universal declaration of human rights and mutual respect between interpol members. it's up to you to judge if that has much to do with the conflict. it's unclear though, how tourism or air travel will make vladimir putin change his mind. but 1st,

the world's major jet makers like air bus and boeing decided to freeze part supplies to russian airlines. then among the latest industry decisions was won by a texas based airline software giant to end the distribution agreement with air flop. we're taking a stand against the military conflict we are complying and will continue to comply with sanctions imposed against russia. it means air flawed flights, won't show up on online travel agencies or other 3rd party sites. now, how's this for a canceling russia award? the likes of dizzy and hollywood studios have decided to put on hold their movie releases in russian theaters and is banning russian paralympic in from beijing. 2022 wasn't enough for the russian army he a sports has initiated processes to remove the russian national team and all russian clubs from a sports fee for products including fee for $22.00 fee for mobile and fee for

online. we're also actively evaluating related changes to other areas of our games . cancelling the russians in free fall for the likes of play station pool. be aware. well, surely the businesses are free to decide what to do with their products. in some cases with the latest sanctions, it may well be a matter of pride or solidarity, but it seems most of that effort will take install on ordinary russians. not the folks wearing camouflage or whoever gives them their orders. well, also on this political strategist kitten mansfield fears the sanctions will rock world economic stability along with the dollar. it has hurt russia's economy and russia's currency, the ruble in the short term. but really in the long run, it's only going to end up to backfire against the u. s. d. when you start to kick

people out as a mode of economic warfare. when, for example, we've been as wailer with iran and now with russia. all that's going to do in the long run is make, in this case the u. s. the less valuable on the international market and eventually come back and her be american consumer. if anybody is doing something to undermine the world, economic stability is going to be the u. s. and nato by forcing countries into economic sanctions and putting them under the boot of economic warfare, imperialism. that's what undermines the stability of the world economy. this idea that china is the one moving to undermine stability is false. it's nonsense in the u. s. to doing that, china once when, when cooperation. ready america, one, when all economic policy to re establish russian diplomatic missions abroad,

how find themselves the target of hate. so over the countries actions in ukraine, the embassy in paris was vandalized with paint, while 2 envelopes containing a suspicious white powder room mailed to the embassy in australia. police are now investigating or suff, working at the dublin mission said their families had been threatened, including the receiving death threats are ti spoke to rushes ambassador to france about what's happening? a sorcerer, someone threw blends, fell with paint, and the russian embassy covering the front of the building on the wall of the embassies orthodox church. they wrote words that are not allowed to say on earth. we do our best to ensure our employees safety and encourage them to take any necessary safety matches. we ask them not to leave their homes unless it is absolutely necessary. we suddenly came across some fake news that claimed russian students had been kicked out of french universities. we conducted our own research and found out that wasn't true. moreover, the heads of some top french universities promised that they will not expel russian students because of the political situation. now,

french president emanuel micron is playing an active role in solving the ukrainian crisis and talks regularly with the russian president. france understands the need for a new european security system, but now we're at the very peak of the conflict. frances agreed to all the sanctions against russia, including economic, they're risking their own companies. it's sad news, but i hope that soon they'll realize that these actions are damaging for their own economy. it's also sad to hear that the french ministry of culture and the ministry of sports have been russian artist, snap fleets from performing in france. it's just nonsense. meanwhile, serbians have been rallying in support of russia in belgrade. thousands gathered to we're flying and march to the russian embassy. many people in the country remain angry. nato's bombing campaign in the balkan wars and hundreds of civilians were killed. while the serbian government has criticized russia's military offensive in ukraine,

it's refused to impose sanctions provoking anger from its western allies. let deeper dive into all of those stories can be found at r t dot com. and while you are there, reminder you can watch the 247 almera stream with a click of the live button. bye phil. ah ah, the massive sanctions war against russia is having a profound impact on the global economy instead of just punishing russian citizens . consumers in the west and the developing world will also experience economic pain, globalization, it's.
