3:06 pm
and how desperate the people are to leave this affected area where you've certainly painted quite a grim picture of the situation in multiple. now when the sun ukrainian army has left the area, why has the evacuation not got underway yet? is it purely because of the shelling? well, yes and no. the ukrainian army might have left. they might have not ever been present in the city of marie opal. and here we need to make a very important look where to distinguish between the ukranian army. and so the so called a territorial defense battalion in the city of variable battalion is called us off and according to the next people's republic, authorities of battalion are using terror tactics in order to scare a peaceful civilians. now we do know for a fact that this as a battalion has a neo nazi affiliation. they've even been accused by the united asians, of committing war crimes over the years. and they've been present and ctm report
3:07 pm
for the entire 8 years that this conflict has been going on. now i worked in the boss, have been covering the conflict there for the last 8 years. and i myself, i witnessed the atrocities that were committed by the, by the representatives of this battalion as off and there's another one called i dar door present in different territories. it has people's republic and i saw mass grades. i saw the results of execution. i saw their uniforms carrying a nazi symbol, so quite a lot of people in the world, but certainly not enough and know about what not will this not c, as all battalion is. so here's a clip for you. take a look with
3:08 pm
while the problem with humanitarian car doors continues so no to you for residents are understood to managed to escape. they've now been accommodated in a shelter, settled by russia and, and yet, republic officials say at least 17 people managed to leave the city, save for the shelter. here's what those who fled to say with the joyous amount of time,

which is pretty much ever, always ready of us. meanwhile, the russian foreign minister said the author, warranties in the city of kennesaw and ukraine self refused fix that russian humanitarian aid lover of also blamed about you pull authorities in a donnie, it's region 4, not letting local residents leave the area of via those humanitarian cargoes. mosca is very much concerned about this kind of hostage situation. the civilians are currently in. we heard from russia's foreign minister speaking at the press briefing with his caregiver counterpart. he said that the reason information that to local authorities in here. so in
3:10 pm
a big city on the black sea at regional capital, that just to recently fell under the control of the russian army, refuse to accept humanitarian aid provided by moscow. while the innocent civilians in another city of murder, your pearl again in the south, are not allowed to evacuate use in humanitarian corridors. here is what mister oliver of had to say. did he go to printers? no less who school ukuleles scheme, a good, a good fit during the talks between the russian and ukrainian delegation. so it was announced that everyone satisfaction that there was agreement on the creation of humanitarian corridors we expect, or at least expected with this agreement to be clearly implemented. our military did all the work expected of them. the main thing now is for people to be let out of the cities through the humanitarian corridor walls, within which cal military provide security today information has already appearing on social networks. the minutes republic has said that the murray, you pally or forty's, is refusing to provide residents with the opportunity to leave for the humanitarian
3:11 pm
corridor, which was created by russian forces met to law rove also added that the fact that ukraine's president mister zalinski so unhappy with nature's decision not to interfere in the war here could indicate that he's been interested in provoking a direct conflict between the lions and russia. russia's foreign minister also complained that the ukraine inside is doing its best to postpone to, to, to delay. the 3rd round of these talks between moscow and kia for the ukrainian side never accepted any of the russian suggestions about when to have these never set up any day. meanwhile, i am in the city of atlanta. now the capital of logan's peoples, republican. we have been traveling a lot across the republic in the last 7 days, and we have been able to speak to local residents who have been suffering here in the last 8 years. and everybody told us that they are waiting for the results of
3:12 pm
these piece talks with high hopes hoping for peace. of course, here's my report. 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 lucky. it is on the very front line. it has been dramatically destroyed. locals even compare it with stalingrad, located near a river, or nestor t. juke 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, beersheba 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
3:13 pm
stay seemed to have turned into quest for survival. fema here 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. bust 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 are 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
3:14 pm
a lay down on the ground. if you are in the field and hear what's marked rad is not exactly a good idea, like wearing uniform for example, or approaching windows formulas us, we're 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 authorities say work has already begun to repair infrastructure and provide security for locals. there is still hope that one day, the town so brightly named happiness, can finally find it once again. we from ocean our t from chest here in the la guns republic. in other parts of ukraine fighting is ongoing in the don bus region, the retreating, ukrainian army is allegedly destroying infrastructure along the way. that's according to the russian military. meanwhile, forces from the done yet can look guns, republics continued to advance with russian military help. thus again, according to moscow, this unverified footage from the ukrainian capital shows
3:15 pm
a huge explosion set to be in the western parts of the city. air raid sirens are still being founded occasionally. here with authorities asking people at home. and his footage from the russian defense ministry, which claims to show forces advancing further in the key of region, while also strengthening their current position. i know for some more video, this time from color cove in the north east of the country, which shows smoke rising above a residential area after an allegedly missile strike. local authorities said ukrainian military has launched a counter offensive against russian forces in the region. while moscow claims artillery has been deliberately placed in residential areas, one of your interest and nick, yet another bridge has reportedly been destroyed. now it's not clear who is responsible, both ukrainian forces have allegedly being blowing up bridges across the country to
3:16 pm
hinder the advance of russia's military locals. now navigate the river on foot across the ruble and walk laughingly here retreating. ukrainian forces have also allegedly blown up a bridge in the republic of lou ganske. thousands of locals must now use boats to cross the river, and the hurried destination has reportedly left traces of explosives on the bridge . he is. russian of foreign minister believes the volume is the landscape trying to push nato into direct conflicts with russia. ukrainian presidents meanwhile, hasn't have back on his anger. nate, so claiming the alliance will have blood on its hands. for a jason ukraine's demands to implement a no fly zone over the country. at the sloppy salmon, the nato summit was a very weak and directionless summit. in this for 9 days. we've seen a brutal wars. will they want to continue and help them knowing that a new strike is inevitable? nato made a consenting decision not to close ukrainian air space actual from this day,
3:17 pm
those who die will die because of you too suitable against the zalinski still relies on the resolution of the conflict by involving nato in this whole story to go and not through negotiations so it turns out that he does not hear the constant statements coming from washington, harris, berlin, and other capitals is that nato is not going to interfere in some clothes. and it turns out that he seeks to provoke a conflict with the participation of nato, between nato and russia, took history me to sprout zeros. well, earlier we spoke to south african politician tokyo sex quali, who says nathan involvement may lead to disastrous consequences. if the war in ukraine spills all righty. discount is it. thus i am seeing that once that happens, then a door is world war city. we cannot allow that to happen. we came on keep weatherbug that it is our, well we are part of this job. we have got to say as well because when these what
3:18 pm
weapons happen, disputing of an actual or a nucleus will not happen. he doesn't juice, you know what happened in ron long island in the united states. you know what happened in immuno shima and i guess like a re kelsey also what happened in some of it ends and of course the weapons shot there to be hypersonic weapons. the particular they're all going to do. so is the same as you can see, the pun debbie, which this pandemic, whenever it comes from it here, all of us in the world, the nuclear weapons, when they are fire, cool, steam will, will achieve that. so why should they end up meant for both fake the lead us must sit down and stop competing about who can apply more functions on this one, the actual picture of the what is breaking down is what is the structure? people must see don't single of the children. meanwhile, president putin has criticized any talk of the west, placing nuclear weapons in ukraine, saying such moves were to quote, hold to russia at gun point. the rest of these deals,
3:19 pm
they will build trays and they will also get them across the oceans. and then they'll say that we do not recognize the nucleus states these complexes under their control. and from this 2nd, from this very 2nd, the fate of russia will be completely different. because then our strategic adverse reason will not even need to have ballistic inter continental missiles. right here they will keep a sudden come point with a nuclear weapon and not say, how can we move past all of these are absolutely real threat and was not much nonsense. and our guys who are now fighting and laying down their lives for our future, you don't completely agree thing. and people who do not want to understand this, especially those among the current leadership crane, must understand that if they continue to do that, they are cooling in the question, the future of ukrainian statehood. you got to do anything with arrow for employee. stress currently has no plans to impose martial law in russia. and the destruction
3:20 pm
of ukraine's military infrastructure is almost complete. also note the different options are on the table for the demilitarization of ukraine. and all of them could be negotiated with kia, because in the door, ukraine views russia, the military actions as on provoke invasion. calling for immediate withdrawal of all russian forces for the us ambassador to russia, warned washington that nato enlargement could provoke a response from moscow. the concerns were highlighted in the cable sent for moscow, which was later leads by wiki leaks, ukraine and george's nato aspirations. not only touch iran nerve in russia, they engender serious concerns about the consequences for stability in the region. russia would have to decide whether to intervene a decision. russia does not want to have to face in the cable. the then ambassador william burns also said moscow won't tolerate its security concerns being ignored.
3:21 pm
also noting that the criminal believed the question of nato membership would divide ukraine, as the ethnic rushing community would oppose joining the alliance, potentially leading to a worst case scenario of civil war. earlier i spoke with mark slew border, an international affairs and security analyst who spoke of all the us officials warning about the exact same consequences. well, this leaked document is particularly significant because it is from a former us ambassador to russia, who is right now the senior director. but he is for hardly the only or the 1st one to address these issues of nato expansion eastward into ukraine. the dangers that presents as a what would be perceived by russia as an existential national security threat. and also threatened to destabilize ukraine, george kennan the father,
3:22 pm
the geo strategic father of the u. s. policy of containment against the soviet union said the same thing. a jack matlock former us ambassador to the soviet union . the last us ambassador to the soviet union, when it dissolved said the same thing. bill clinton's defense sex secretary william percy said the same thing. in fact, he felt so strongly about the dangers of nato expansion to the east, towards russia that he considered resigning over it. so the question is, why did they ignore all of these voices, these eminent voices in international relations and on russia doing it because it is perceived now to be to u. s. g o political objectives to expand into ukraine. so the ukraine is no longer a neutral state on russia. borders at all costs. now sweeping sanctions had been
3:23 pm
slapped on moscow in response to his actions in ukraine. among the late this bronze to close stores on pause business operations in russia. i look for names including hermes, katya, and chanel bloomberg and the b. b. c are also temporarily holding the news operations here. while cnn will stop broadcasting in the country with a significant number of bonds on restrictions already in place, there are still many more promise to ortiz. ilia patrol has been looking into that issue. russia is being punished to make sure moscow behaves correct. the sanctions will end if prudent ends this war and helps rebuild ukraine, re establish 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 and new grain once and for all. but lots of the measures put ford already in place, barely have anything to do with the,
3:24 pm
the russian men in uniform or the people in charge. i mean those responsible for sending them to ukraine. it's like we're what the thing a grand international cancelling russia contest where countries and businesses compete and how they're going to make things worse for russian soldiers. but why also russian caps or russian interior designers. otherwise, how do you explain a ban on kitty's from this country? at international exhibitions or the decision by swedish burden her jain to care, to abandon russia house, throwing moscow out of inter paul and international police un going to help to day 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
3:25 pm
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 airbus and boeing decided to freeze part supplies to russian airlines. then among the latest industry decisions was won by a texas based airline software. joined to and the distribution agreement with air flop. we're taking a stand against this 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, house bid for canceling russia award. the likes of dizzy and hollywood studios have decided to put on hold their movie releases in washing theaters. and if banning
3:26 pm
russian pair limpy 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. meanwhile, protesters have taken to the streets of bel grade in serbia to show their support for russia. the early started with the russian and serbian national anthems and
3:27 pm
thousands in the crowd were waving russian flags and carrying pitches of president putin. many of the protesters were also sharing unseen nato sentiments. and this comes as many ordinary serv still hold the memory of nature's bombings of their country. back in the 1990s, a 7 gauge professor at the institute of european studies in belgrade says that despite receiving little media coverage, protesters flocked to the rally. i see it was advertised on social media. really was not really advertised very much except for the telegram groups or, or websites that are really very small. the, their, their, their scope is not large. neither is their audience, but from word to words, from mouth to mouth, the towards friends. so people came in, great numbers, actually to support russia. and there is
3:28 pm
a simple equation where that is because russia was supporting for last 20 years, serbia's territorial integrity in the you. and when it comes to the course of all issue, russia was supporting and still is supporting the our resolution. well, 44. that guarantees are serbia started to real integrity. and there is a strong anti to sant demands that only grew over the years, which is why people actually know that these kind of protests are finger in d, i a, in, in the western. let's say we're media in the western, even in public. at another raleigh in georgia, protesters showed their supports for ukraine, thousands gathered in the capital to make their feelings felt over russia's military actions. during the rally, ukrainian president zelinski addressed processes in a live video broadcast,
3:29 pm
urging them to bring more people on to the streets in the show support. and just before we go, a quick update to our satellite broadcasting around the world from the express am 8 satellites. in europe, you can find as it's r, t global s d over in africa, it's r. c global. and in latin america express am 8 at 14 degrees west. you can find a detailed guide on how to tune into as it's r t dot com slash where to watch. well, that's all for this are for the latest developments on the conflict in ukraine, head over to r t dot com. my name is peter scott and thank you for watching. ah oh,
