and oil prices jump to record highs and mid western threats to coach rush or off from their markets with going to your life from moscow, you're watching archie international. my name is peter scott, and welcome to 30 minutes of news and views as the conflicts in ukraine and says it's 12 day. let's take a quick look of some of the latest developments. the 3rd round of diplomatic talks between kevin moscow has just begun in bella roofs, and of course we'll keep your data on how those negotiations are getting on. meanwhile, moscow, a slums, p. f saying it's is broken agreements on humanitarian corridors. it claims ukrainian officials didn't notify people that they can now safely leave by those leading to russia and belarus. ukraine officials insist safe exit routes remain short as they believe. the evacuation of people to these is an acceptable and in

europe. energy prices break, old time records amid sanctions against russia, with ukrainian presidents now urging the west to boycott the imports of all russian oil and petro products. however, the german chancellor just defended the decision to maintain energy supply from russia to the european union. meanwhile, there was a huge explosion that's lou ganske oil. definitely. early this morning, this video shows a raging fire and huge plumes of smoke rising into the sky. local authorities blamed a ukrainian missile strike saying they had to fuel tanks, repulsively known, was injured in the incident ortiz correspond with maria financial as the latest. we here in lou ganske this morning, woke up from a sound of massive explosion, were rushed to the window. to see this, you now can see black smoke, but there was blaze before that as well. firefighters are currently working on the ground to fix it. and now we hear from local military authorities that to the

cities, oil depot was heat by. they say tortuga, you may say this is a high precision tactical ballistic missile that they say this time was fired from around the city of sarah. then next, some 75 kilometers from where we are now. this is where the frontline lies and indeed, they believe ukraine's armed forces ard behind the attack, and they strongly condemn targeting civilian infrastructure. we haven't heard any common. oh, any reaction on what happened here in logan's from key of yet. meanwhile, here where i am now, lou ganske republic, her local army is continued to advance as you said, and on some directions, they have already succeeded around like 75 kilometers. and we hear reports from local military authorities that they have already taken control over a like around 60 villages. and here's my report on what happens when the army here

on the ground takes control over at town or a village fighting attacking, advancing, capturing ground. that's how the military moves forward. but what happens next is perhaps even more important clearance. this is what the army has to do in every village. they take control off, they check every street. every house especially destroyed to make sure there are no explosives to come and tactic by the ukrainian armies to mine areas. they retreat from this one is already cleared. but what's also crucial is the careful tracking of those who remain civilians are of course, free to go. but all those affiliated with the military are detained for further investigation. this is what happened to tatiana, a former nurse in the ukraine, in armed forces. that shiana hasn't seen her daughter in 5 days. that's how long it

took for the logan's crew, public authorities to check and make sure she poses no threat. now the fighting has moved on. i fits on level. sure. sure. why in the salvation army crane apparently up, hold on. you said the rose. we beside let us be scared. don't stall just will re to come when you would you. if sure jojo has done sketchily a courier, was that a shot settled on you submitted a kernel and elegance garment personally with her shiana to her family. apparently, this is the 1st time this has happened in your book, at least in logan's, all prisoners or war. i said to be detained until hostilities are over sick for new 3rd grade, little go. dozer loader sick door, the brawler ask them, took the test over pony crystal clear because the keyword and you build it was additionally the more feature, 1st of which i'm a new when you look in your gravy a manual formula, crystal clear because on the previous was wallace with your computer or live to which you thought you before them away. we're very shame relative of the noise. to

cool good fuel wooster for my book known samira spicy, but they both. not everybody agrees that she has neighbors say she helped keith's military. so should be in jail that ya joined ukraine's army back in 2016 to make ends meet. they paid well, look, now she says she feels betrayed. dorming of spa solve my you chest, me as possible. it does periodontal store or can, can an appeal? no, it's growing. it's a little crazy in the past and was fatherly tim closer to 1000 and would kill me, slower it earlier in which is your what they mean in you. when you duty to suckering it disappears. isn't this lame seem young? but yeah, and he's not the 1st member of you phrase military to address her former uniform colleagues with such calls as days turned to weeks there heard more frequently. but

as the war in this conflict, weary region rages on, it seems such voices are not always heard. murray, phenomena r t from the look on script public. on this fighting continues in ukraine, russia's defense ministry says done yet, scandal. guns forces continue to take more territory. thus, as russian troops are advancing in other parts of the country. these photos allegedly show the aftermath of ukrainian army shelling of a civilian area in the denounced region. 5 people were reportedly injured on a local nursery was also heads and now to the north east har cove has been heavily shells. the markets was heads and you can see the aftermath here in this postage. there are also reports to fight the jet was downed in the area with both sides, claiming credit for the attack on some unverified to which is purported to show a missile strike in the prosecutor's office. on the tv tower, the russian defense ministry has shed this voltage of water. it claims to be abundant. positions of forces. far to say,

these are destroyed ukrainian armored vehicles as one of the forces fortified areas dugouts. i'm concrete phone codes with firing points. now ukraine views russian military actions as an all out on, provokes invasion, calling for the immediate withdrawal of all russian forces, ukrainian woman whose husband was killed by armed looters was left terrified and bleeding. the couple fled key with a child for the summer house outside the capital. now the woman has been treated for a gunshot wound in the city hall of mosier embellish. bruce was a shovel in the morning. it seemed like everything was fine. there were no soldiers . our military vehicles in the village, but they were nearby driving along the central highway. my husband went outside close the door and went to his neighbor to collect water from the well. he was then shot dead by 2 people. they were not soldiers, but most likely armed looters. weapons are being distributed to everyone now. they

fired at the windows and then climbed into the house. they looked around but did not see my child in me as we were hiding. they left through the window, but then fired back at the front door. the bullet hit me, and then they were gone. meanwhile, the 3rd round of negotiations between russia and ukraine has already started. that of the russian delegation says the humanitarian issue will be one of the main topics of discussion i cisco delagarso fibula. the russian delegation has arrived as agreed upon to start talks. the ukrainian delegation is late. we found this to be a diplomatic tradition on the parts of ukraine rules. we will discuss the same 3 sets of a houston, the political resolution, the international humanitarian issue in the military issues. smells of says, as he know, at the last meeting, we achieved an agreement on humanitarian corridors for the civilian population to exit households. as russia was prepared to open those hotspots and a cease fire regime was in operation. and fortunately, none of them were effective. we conducted observations using

a man darrow vehicles and saw ukrainian nationalists preventing the carrabas from being operational made. and i will relay one episode in particular that occurred yesterday in the east and outskirts of mario pulse, an area which has been surrounded by the dumbass people's republic militia and nationalist battalion try to escape the city shall. so just as in the great patriotic war, they had about a 150 civilians, including women and children in front of them, forcing them to go before them. then they commanded the civilians to lie down and then open fire teachers. as a result, as we know, 4 civilians were killed and 5 injured, but on my rule, these nationalists were also partially destroyed or in the rest of them fled customization. this is an example of the way humanitarian corridors work, according to some ukranian authorities and some warring factions which have reached the laws of war and ana. i will allow you to make your own conclusions option. we will try to continue talks than ensure humanitarian corridors are operational. but

on our side, our armed forces have enacted a cease fire in the air is necessary now and people have the ability to get out. sadly though, the nationalists, who have held the cities, you civilians living shields both directly and indirectly. and this is undoubtedly a war crime which will be investigated in due course. but i spirit the par builder . well, as the head of the russian delegation, as just mentioned, the agreements over humanitarian corridor as to the sides agreed to previously is allegedly yet to be implemented properly by the ukrainians. ukrainian, vice president claims the corridors that lead to russia are an acceptable while. moscow says the citizens haven't even been informed of these roots. said the bring up ne variant, it's an unacceptable option for humanitarian corridors to be open. we are, people will not go from ivan cardi, which is near kiana to beller, is in order to then fly by plane to rush at him. so i hope that the french president micron understands that his name and sincere desire to help the civilian population of ukraine as well as foreign citizens of china, pakistan, india,

and many other countries is actually being used and manipulated by russia. as you send that to be able to grab and official response from the ukranian side was only received at 7 o'clock in the morning to day. however, the key of regime deliberately didn't mention the opening of the humanitarian corridors to the russian federation gave from kia. let's hearken, i mean, mary, you, paul, and sue me up to the citizens of those and other residential areas weren't informed of the opportunity for safe evacuation at all. how to go. this is nothing but explicit cynicism towards their fellow citizens. meanwhile, in the ukrainian regions, these unverified videos show people waiting for evacuation roots of train stations evolve and info petrovna, where they repulsive being forced to waiting queues for hours to flee those cities . earlier we spoke to the president of the international committee of the red cross, and he gave us an overview of the humanitarian situation. ukraine. oh,

you may tell in situation obviously as far as we see is extremely serious. it is particularly serious in urban areas of the country suite. see the proximity of civilians and battle fields. at the same time, we tried the best we can to respond to a increase landscape of needs hundreds of thousands of people in need. but we also want to engage with the parties in order to find consensus and precise agreements about evacuation rules about access into each other are fighting areas as well as a voluntary evacuation and wallet voluntary escape routes for civilian populations. as we see, this is a highly competitive issue. it's not the only place in the world where we see

difficulties of having precise agreements between the military switch are able to work in real life. but i appreciate all the efforts from all sides in order to come to functioning agreements, precise agreements, so that the civilians can find safe places can be protected and you, many parents can access. this is humanitarian aid has continued heading to those in need in ukraine. convoys, pipes with food have arrived in the city of here, sonata was taken by referring forces boards as our senior correspondent, rod guess, dear reports. some ukrainian nationalists have reportedly been trying to intimidate those, accepting that help in all these areas now under the control of russian forces and where humanitarian aid is being delivered. we see the same scene being repeated,

and that is hundreds, thousands of people queuing at distribution points for desperately needed food and, and always a handful of spoilers appear most often with, with mobile phones to film what they're doing. they'll stand aaron and shout insults, brush and troops or the masses cuing for desperately needed food. they then upload that footage to social media or friendly western media outlets to create the impression that ukrainians are against russian aid. when it couldn't be further from the truth across liberated areas of ukraine, convoys of russian aid, food and essentials, are an increasingly common site. hundreds of tons have been loaded and sent to ukrainian cities and communities on the verge of starvation. but some people, but rather she thousands starve and cues that stretch for hundreds of meters. you'll find them holding phones in people's faces. they are few in number,

but aggressive and loud. i googled this is tame compared to what other ukranian nationalists are saying. they want to hunt down any one starving or not. who takes bad. he needed food from the russian convoys. taught them, finding out more, you're more not hulu. they do those because all of them give the form to them. beautiful machine for me, but don't want him. so i mean there's been lots of other horrible programs because of the whole of the feeling. they are a tiny minority, the nationalists said neo nazis, but they have enormous sway. 2 years of mud violence, bullying, and intimidation. have frightened people to the cool few dare to stand up to them.

but judge for yourself that every 1000 people good, welcome russian aid. only a handful appeared to insult and scream. you could just go to that gym. i want to say to all of the citizens of hers and that i wish them health. i want to thank you . we are very happy and grateful. oh sir, co on us at the but on the shackle, the street, we have a supermarket nearby. it's empty. there's nothing in the store except sweets. there's a shock next to us. i stood in line there to buy 2 slices of cheese and a pack of butter. i gave 197 hiena. this are in thinkable prices. they're like more doors. there's a crazy que from bread people cannot buy bread, so not rushes. instead, the d knots application of ukraine has already begun at bull likely be an intense process given how grave the security threat ease. just kilometers from where aid workers were handing out food. russian forces detained a man with explosives, firearms, and orders. we tickled with them what is your rank?

what branch of the armed forces? the 124th territorial defense brigade, head of military civilian cooperation. the threat of terrorist attacks, bombings and subterfuge will likely grow as nationalists and neo nazis hunker down and go into hiding. but for now, it remains a tough balancing act for russia. juggling the needs of the people and their good will. while for filling its goal, the demilitarization and de nuts application of ukraine, or at gas div from here son, ukraine. well, amid pressure to strengthen sanctions from western countries, oil and gas prices have skyrocketed over the last few days. and as, as presidents zalinski calls for a complete embargo on russian energy exports. but it's not clear though, whether western politicians are ready to take that risk. i spoke with don call to

earlier about that. prices energy prices. they've been skyrocketing across the western world in the u. s. first of all, we've got oil prices just under their historic peak that came, that was in 2008. and in europe we've seen a gas prices even surpass their record highs. we're talking about over $3900.00 for a 1000 cubic meters of gas. that's $373.00 per kilowatt hour. these are prices that people just several months ago would have considered to be apocalyptic. and so we have to ask ourselves, how did we get to this spike in prices? and the answer is, western politicians have simply been talking about the potential of a ban on all oil imports from the world's largest oil exports. and that's russia, an actual ban hasn't even come into effect. and yet we have on the one hand, the european commission talking about putting forward policies that would potentially raise these prices even higher. and on the other hand, we have germany,

which is saying we can't just ditch russian oil at the drop of a hat to morrow. the european commission will table proposals on how to quickly get rid of our dependency on russian fossil fuels. this means diversifying suppliers, switching to liquefied natural gas and pipeline gas, re powering the ease by investing and renewables, and proving energy efficiency. the federal government has been urgently working for months with its partners in the european union and beyond to develop alternatives to russian energy. this cannot be done overnight. it is therefore, a conscious decision on our part to continue the activities of commercial companies in the field of energy supply with russia. i think it goes without saying that european energy policy, even before we got to this point, was one of the main reasons we saw the energy crisis begin late last year. and a, one of the main reasons that europe has long had some of the highest energy costs in the world. as for american liquefied natural gas, we have to look at what antony blinking said yesterday. he said he was to be

discussing with european politicians how to get them on board on with a anti russian oil embargo. and it's pretty clear who's going to be the only winner in such a scenario. of course, washington that selling this american liquefied natural gas and how the u. s. house of representatives is already drafting a bill to put that into action. but among the other major supporters of an embargo of russian oil is of course, the ukranian president vladimir zalinski. now she desert willow morals, if the invasion continues in russia does not abandon its plans against ukraine, than a new sanctions package is needed against the war. there should be a boycott of russian exports and a rejection of oil and oil products from russia. this can be referred to as an embargo, or you could just call it a moral choice. it is necessary to cast aside fear and forget about commerce. both countries and companies need to take a moral stance. now we've, we've heard the strong talk and you said, you know,

the talk in itself was enough just to send the prices sewing, but so far the west has stopped short of implementing an all outbound on russian energy s. exports. but do you think no, be able to do it without catastrophic consequences back home while, according to the experts, it seems that without catastrophic consequences, it's not going to be possible. we've heard from analysts from bank of america who are saying that if russian oil were to be entirely blocked for from import in the west, we would be looking at a potential doubling in the price of oil. we also heard from the analysts at j. p. morgan, who said that by the end of the week, the price of a barrel of oil could be as high as $185.00. and in regard to the situation, we really have to look at one relevant example as to why banning russian oil would be a really bad idea. that's the fact that a shell oil just recently bought a 100000 metric tons of russian oil because it said it had no other alternative if it were not to buy the soil than it would have been facing us. the shortfalls in

some i, let's take a listen to the official announcement from the company. yesterday. we made the difficult decision to purchase a cargo of russian crude oil refineries produce petrol and diesel, as well as other products that people rely on every day to be clear without an uninterrupted supply of crude oil to refineries. the energy industry cannot assure continued provision of essential products to people across europe over the weeks ahead. cargoes from alternative sources would not have arrived in time to avoid disruptions to market supply. now while we're hearing these kinds of statements from, for example, shell and the german chancellor, that it's just not possible to ditch russian oil overnight. at the same time, we're hearing comments from ukrainian officials, basically trying to shame people who are still doing business with russia in the oil sphere. one example is ukraine's foreign minister who asked shell over twitter if the oil it just bought, smelled like the blood of ukrainians. but whatever brussels and washington is trying to accomplish and perhaps blocking the import of russian oil,

there's no doubt that the kind of blow back they're going to face is going to have themselves shooting themselves in the foot. for let's go live now to done at johnston political olva. welcome to the program. diana, you know, are you surprised that we've reached this point given repeated russian warnings of nato expansion over the past 1015 years or so? well i, i was, i, i said my son not surprised. i mean, i didn't expected at this moment i will say, oh, but of course i have been warning his other more important to experts have been warning this. this nato and spanish was leading to disaster is perfectly obvious, and it's just it, with his own united states has insisted on not understanding russia,

not understanding nashik, really concerns, leading nato to act as if it's getting ready to work out for the invasion of russia by getting closer and closer and having military maneuvers all the time, those military maneuvers are not covered properly in the, in the west. western realize quite western public doesn't realize quite how aggressive natal is acting toward russia. of course russia knows it and the russian meters. and so the western public is not prepared for this because they have not been properly informed. they've only been told for years. ringback that put in some kind of demon and now they're regional, the high in really center and mysteria in the west is very disturbing. well, it's certainly being quite a backlash against russia,

which takes me on. so my next question about the sanctions against which obviously, you know, many russian banks, individuals and entities have been sanctioned quite heavily by the west. do you believe the reaction is proportional to the situation we're seeing now in ukraine? oh, whose reaction the sanction the sanctions here they've been imposed? well, i mean to is to new, relevant and like other things you have the impression that western leader is going on with the sort of living in a fiction world. heavy heading is also a disaster, is if you notice it, i mean, is there heading for economic disaster? they're heading for world war just in order to, to show that they are more democratic then other parts of the wall, russia is all virtue signaling. and these leaders are not looking out for the welfare of their countries at home. they're just taking wild

risks and i am not an expert to tell you what is going to happen. but it is quite obvious that it's already happening. the shortage of oil . and so on. so it's clearly there's, there's real economic trouble ahead. and i hope it's only the economic trouble because there's also people calling for actually, you know, natal into the war with russia over ukraine. which is of course, totally in seen but, but that exists. and i don't see a sensible people in, i mean there are sensible people in the west. in the united states, there are sensible people, but they are very far out of power. yes. in marginalized, thank you very much for that insights into the conflict. new credentials,

i'm afraid we're out of time now, but thank you very much. political ortho, diana johnson. johnstone, sorry. now the conflicts has seen a wave of ukrainians attempting to get out of the country, some of whom have managed to reach the by boss car on foot for now is germany, which has become the main hope refugees. while countries like poland also offer assistance, many are able to hold back tears are unable to hold by tears. it's having to leave their whole none behind or not. every european state seems to have their arms open quite as wide. france and the u. k. are currently trading bob's over who should look after those currently stock at the french ports of cali wirelessly, a looks at the west reaction to the refugees. hundreds of thousands of ukrainian refugees are crossing into europe in the you and cause the largest migration crisis in essentially. and its politicians have been quick to explain why that you should take them in. at the end of the new list, these women, children,

and elderly must be welcomed in europe. anyone can now perfectly understand the difference between the flow of refugees that is happening now in the invasion of young men of military age and a muslim origin that have been launched against different borders of europe in attempts to destabilize and colonize it. if he's still in doubt, the corporate media dots, the i's and cross the t's is really emotional for me because i see europe and people with blue eyes and blown here being here. this isn't a place with all due respect, you know, like iraq or afghanistan. this is a relatively civilized, relatively european. i have to choose those words carefully to, we were in the 21st century. we were in a european city and we have cruise missile fire as though we were in iraq. correct . in case you want to put eggs was these are not refugees from syria. these are refugees from ukraine. they're christian, they're white. they're very similar. johns, do they seem so like us? that is what makes it so shocking. ukraine is a european country. it's people watch netflix and have instagram accounts. war is

no longer something visited upon impoverished and remote populations. surely a little racist for such progress of countries. not to mention the fact that the crisis is at least in part, down to the failure of western diplomacy and foreign policy. when it's syrians or africans on a boat, these country didn't even try to integrate them. they reject even the chance that anyone brown could assimilate. your skin is too dark. you couldn't possibly a bush, but this disparity is not only about racism, ukrainian, freeing violence and heading to the west or refugees, while ukrainians fleeing violence and hitting to russia to seek refuge. adjust my goods, apparently that contrast citizens despite looking the same. what about the bombing of yugoslavia also a white christian nation comparable to ukraine. it was celebrated not condemn.
