ah, a nearest group, public forces claim to take control of a district in central mario ball and the evacuation of civilians is underway. our correspondent, when the people who were trapped in the water city now receiving monetary nate out nascar, it's a lot of these. people have lost their homes, they spend the last couple of weeks hiding in the basement. under shelling, rally we across europe over surging energy prices caused by punishing sanctions flaps on russia. some government or even suggesting people simply turn down the eating. we get reaction in paris. it's not as that should reduce our heating and reduce our consumption of petrol or other things. there are

a lot of houses that may become harmful for health when it comes to energy efficiency fund, the u. k. cancel the trip of high ranking officials to india amid boys johnson's unsuccessful attempts to get the country to take action against russia. despite pressure from the west, new deli staying neutral, both in the un under bilateral relations. ah. is just gone. am here on saturday morning in moscow. mine is peter scott and wherever you joining us from, welcome to 30 minutes of news and analysis here are nazi now we're head straight to the main developments of the ukranian conflicts. the russian defense ministry has said it has achieved its primary objective in the 1st stage of its operation. and that's namely reducing the capability of ukrainian forces,

which it says will lead to russia, achieving its main name. the liberation of dom bus. versed in officials also stated on friday that more than 1300 of his soldiers have been killed with almost 4000 injured. while it's being claimed that the fighting him out of you, paul is moving closer towards the sea. meanwhile, mass protests over soaring food and fuel prices are seeing in europe caused by the crippling sanctions imposed on russia for 1st grade down. what's happening on the ground level. the 4th is claim to taking control over one of the districts in the center of not a youthful fighting with ukrainian forces. i'm telling them to become more heretic, but didn't. yet the military is conducting a building to building search. looking for militants reportedly pretending to be civilians. meanwhile, locals claim ukrainian forces aren't letting people out of the city and to deliberately targeting them. an elderly woman who can see quite clearly in this

video and her granddaughter both have gunshot wounds to the leg. it's claimed they were attacked by the ukranian army. we heard from the daughter of that woman. we just wanted to leave the city, at least the left bank. we will not let out. they shot both of our cause and told us to return back. so we returned back with the wounded nurse has just helped us with 1st aid. my mother has to penetrating bullet wounds. we took her to hospital, but all the windows were broken and the poor doctors are doing everything they can . well, there are no seeds in our neighborhood. they kicked us out. thank god, we met russian troops. they helped us to evacuate the wounded and your argument. despite the difficulties, more than $600.00 civilians, including $100.00 children, were reportedly evacuated yesterday for multiple and then now receiving humanitarian aid. ortiz roman costs, or reports from the ground. we are now skirts of the city of la maria,

for here in the nest people's republican. there are hundreds of for refugees here who managed to leave the city. some of them came by footsteps. some of them are using their cars that we brought some humanitarian aid here along with the soldiers of the nest people's republic. there are food items of bread, jan foods reserves of dry goods. others also clothing here as well, for those people who left their homes in a hurry. oh, well, probably without anything just with their documents and some cash in hands. now, oh, once again, we are out in the outskirts of our roubles. so a lot of these people have lost their homes. they spend the last couple of weeks hiding in the basement on their shelling, but valley city level. but those than you, but i live, we were hiding in a basement near the factory, right in the hot spot that it is not for our men. we would have died of hunger along with our children. it's really scary now and our city is in our apartment in

the whole building has burned down. the shelling started and we had to hide in a basement for $23.00 days. yeah, they keep look was really push up. we have nowhere to go. we have lived here for 6070 years, and now we're homeless. you can all my relatives are now in. marry you, paul, you go. my nephew with his 4 children are in. marry you, paul. now i can't leave before i know what happened to them. i don't know whether we will be able to go back to it. i hope they will rebuild at least some houses. but now as i understand, so their lives are no longer in danger. but we're still hearing sounds of artillery here, but i've been told by soldiers of this area is pretty safe. now at once, they get their humanitarian aid here, they will move onwards either today or next, or to a rushes ra stove. but at this point, their lives are no longer under threat. russia claims to besieged ukraine's sec largest city of carter. most of the buildings there have been completely destroyed

. local authorities earlier stated that russian troops intensified their shelling of the city with more than 50 strikes being reported the previous night. with the thought between russia and ukraine going on throughout the week, both sides had started an exchange of prisoners, 11 crew members of the millennial spirit ship, which was attacked in the black sea and returned back to moscow after being detained for a month. 7 of them didn't have any identity documents, and you can see crew members here signing papers to get them. nevertheless, they had of rushes. negotiation team says thought still have a long way to go to supervise with you to go through representatives. the ukranian delegation talk about optimism and great progress in the negotiations. but i don't share that optimism because there is no movement on the principle positions that the russian side insists on. unfortunately, we see a desire on the part of our ukranian colleagues to delay the negotiations. they

take their time and frankly say that they have many decision making centers who witness certain positions have to be coordinated. an interview for the b, b. c, members of the ukrainian delegation directly say that the leadership of ukraine coordinates all its positions with foreign advisors. this is quite frankly and very self revealing flaws littered with papers, but high tech labs left untouched. that's the condition of a key research lab, the chernobyl nuclear power plants, amid read it, media reports, it had been ran sites by russian forces, with an exclusive report. now on those contradictions, his art is eager to down of well, there's maybe only a handful of places in the entire world as iconic, as the chernobyl power plant. we've come here for a series of reports, published by some ukranian sauce, is that the rob wildfire raging in the area and that the russians aren't letting

fire brigades in to let them tackle the blaze. well, hopefully you can see how much fires the rays, how much smoke there is exactly in the air smaller, there's none, and you have to take my word for it. when i say it doesn't smell like anything is burning for kilometers and kilometers away from here. so we'll come to see how the power plant functions. right now when there's a russian military operation in ukraine. from the abandoned station, we had to a nearby radiation monitoring lamp. following reports, it was ransacked and looted. true enough were met with this scene blue . but as we come through the debris, we start noticing a strange pattern. while the office flows are littered with domestic junk, all of the lamps remain unscathed. so this is a research complex that focuses on studying radioactive materials. it is in the

direct vicinity of the true noble power plant. and what's peculiar about it is that it has been maintained with the support of the european union screaming about it. our stick has like this placed all over the equipment here, but it is hard to see where the money exactly went because you don't have to be an expert in brady reactive science to see that all this equipment here is very, very all you can see rust all over, you know, all over the, draws basically all over the place. so again, this is clearly all of it, the legacy of the soviet era. the equipment is in a pristine state. flasks and vials are still neatly organized. the marauder to nato has very deliberately steered away from them. and as we dive into a dog basement, we're in for a worrying discovery. so here what we have is the only piece of more modern equipment that we have been able to find in this lab. it has been provided by the

european union, at least the funds for it. and apparently radioactive materials are still inside to have this dose meter in my hand. it's very old, it's sov. yet you can see it reads 00.32, and then very carefully. i move it towards this container. well, you can see for yourself how high the numbers go. and there are still a couple of containers inside. in nearby rooms we uncovered proves of equipment easily worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, if not millions. some of it could have been carried away by a single person, but wasn't plenty of offices. he and the storage facilities have been looted, but it's interesting to see what has been left behind, for example, well toilet paper, soap. and if we move just little further down,

this little passage, there are bandages sacks and boxes full of them. so the stuff and the items most needed on the front, on the front lines have been left behind. so whoever destroyed this place wasn't in for the money or supplies. as more things don't add up, the place begins to look like a massive ard project coordinator for the wilson that we arrived at to receiving information that the russian military had destroyed undiluted the research laboratory. we found a big mess in all the officers and rooms, but the most striking thing was that all the equipment used by the staff was still there and in good condition papers scattered across the floor, suggest that employees made the mess while they were leaving the laboratory most of the paperwork is still neatly in its place. last documents are dated february. the 21st. all the expensive research equipment is in excellent condition and untouched . a video surveillance server turned out to be blank. we detected increased

radiation on the 1st floor and basement. oh, i think it was criminal carelessness to leave such facilities on its ended. so this place is server room if i may call it that used to be right here, while it has been completely ransacked along with a c, c, t, v, security post or room, whatever you may call it, whoever created all this may. hm was very much interested. nobody finds out who exactly they were with due diligence. this lab can be said back up and running within days. everything with even the slightest use has been miraculously, or rather intentionally spurred by the raiders. i'm biggest done of reporting from tra, noble art. see, it may have warned about the issue of neo nazis in ukraine in the past, but it seems the b, b, c, staying a little more quiet. now. the broadcast is in for you to ukrainian soldier with an infamous nazi symbol, clearly seen on his uniform here say the determination and a little help from western weaponry of what it will not tells us. we have to move

the global so well, that patch on the soldiers arm is the symbol of nazi germany. is s s, division known as death, had the division was formed of concentration camp guards at the start of the 2nd world war. and it was known for the mass murder of war prisoners, including $97.00 british soldiers captured in france in 1940 no mention of any of this was made during the interview. and contrast that with the past back in 2014 the b b. c reported on the role of neo nazis in the conflicts in ukraine. and in 2012, the channel made the documentary over racism and anti semitism in ukrainian as well as polish football stadiums that came ahead of the euro championship held in the 2 countries and showed near nancy gestures being made ukrainian stadiums. editor of the grey zone, max blumenthal says it's important to report on the issue of extremism in the

conflicts, especially as the west is giving us weapons to ukraine. as i just revealed at the gray zone, the bbc corresponded in fixer who is shaping that networks coverage of the events around mar, you poll, is actually a ukrainian nationalist. public relations operative who is involved in creating a viral app that is being called by the washington post, one of the you top ukrainian information weapons. and so i'm not surprised with the white washing. it is unfortunate though that western audiences are deprived of important context on ukrainian politics. and what brought the situation to this point. ukraine is one of the only countries in the world that has an officially neo nazi unit with nazi inspired insignia incorporated into a national guard who civilian wing. the national corps has operated under the auspices officially of the interior ministry when arms are pouring in. and we are

seeing british made light anti tank weapons in the hands of fascist right sector battalions. and the as of battalion, we should be concerned about what will happen with these weapons after the war, what they will do, and whether they will carry out their plans for a civil war or a wider conflict beyond ukraine. and that's why it's important, as well as the fact that they helped inspire this conflict and accelerate the push to war with their actions in eastern ukraine, around the don bast, consistently attacking civilians and violating agreements. joe biden, who's been in europe consults with allies, has stated that he only decided to run for the presidency of the thing rallies in virginia, where people carry torches and nazi bonus. i made a commitment when i ran this time, i wasn't going to run again. necessarily, i had no intention to run for president again. and until i saw most folks coming

out of the fields in virginia carrying torches, you carry nazi banners and literally singing the same vile rhyme that they used in germany. in the early twenties or thirties, i should say. meanwhile, the head of russia state duma has warned the danger of us weapons ending up in the hands of ukrainian far right nationalist battalions that says $800000000.00 worth of u. s. military equipment to started to be sent ukraine, the as of italian was named among those battalions by the duma head, which the u. s. congress prohibits helping. meanwhile, some u. s. media let's including cnn. have you statements from the as of units in the coverage of the war? independent journalist and geo politics analyst benjamin norton believes the jo biden's, criticism of domestic neo nazi movements doesn't necessarily extend to foreign policy. to see once again a another example in a long history of us politicians saying something about their domestic politics and

then doing something completely different and their foreign policy. this is very common in the united states. we see liberals and progresses, claim to care about human rights and democracy, and then they violate those principles around the world because really, their commitment to progressive values ends at u. s. borders. so we see that the, the joe biden, i mean, he was involved deeply in the war on libya that destroyed the most prosperous country in africa, bringing an open air slave markets. he was involved in the war on syria, which chris grated, one of the worst men attending catastrophes on earth. but, you know, biden is basically continuing the same policy and his foreign policy so domestically he will criticize nazis. but when the u. s. empire sees it's, you know, it politically advantageous to support nazis abroad. not just in ukraine. i mean, i mentioned syria. i mentioned libya. we know that the united states is a history of arming and training these extremist far. i death squads that were

linked to al qaeda and syria. and what is the equivalent of that in ukraine? the java a new sora of syria and ukraine would be the a's of regiment. and we have many pieces of evidence showing that the u. s. military has supported a is all over in europe. thousands of laurie drivers have hit to that hits the streets of madrid to protest against sky rocking to prices of food and fuel brought about by the unprecedented sanctions slapped on russia. the demonstrators blocked the main avenue of madrid and demanding the resignation of the spanish transport minister as since he rejected a $1000000.00 euro support package in alleviating the surgeon fuel prices, which passed the benchmark of nearly 1.8 euros per liter. earlier this month, since stringent sanctions have been imposed on russia,

european countries are struggling with increasing food and fuel prices. demonstrations have also been out in germany, france, spain, and greece with protesters throwing burning tires on to a highway and blocking roads. some governments have even suggested people reduced their heating in order to cut their bills. but we ask people in paris what they think of that suggestion. disease one, potash lose. i don't know, at what point it is going to impact, and i don't know how long will it continue. we have to see how the situation is going to evolve him or if it lasts long. it's not as that should reduce our heating and reduce our consumption of petrol or other things to issue really well, a joseph as well. not just reduce heat. yes, of course, but in paris, in a small apartment, it is easy, joseph se, but there are a lot of houses that may become harmful for health when it comes to energy efficiency is i'm was, which is pretty good. i'm not using gas already. what else can i say to you? less heating? well, we will see, since the winter is more complicated than summer,

it was the situation in other countries as even worse than here in france. my boy, but we are going to play this game. we must still works on, on mine, you know, we offer german geopolitical analyst rayner office, believes the west sanctions designed to punish russia now hitting their own people . hard is very short sighted to policy, sanctioning each other. does a lot of harm about old to the lower income classes in europe if you can afford to fill a tank at twice the price you did before. it's okay for those levels of society. but for example, for our transfer to industry, it's really also an issue of existence. only a few countries have introduced now tax rebates for, for their transport companies. but in germany, for example, they have to carry full load of diesel price hike. and there is even

a shortage of diesel, which we can expect in the, in the coming weeks and india and not only the transport companies, but the consumer in the market will have to pay the price for this sanction policy . and it's not only euro hits by dramatically increasing prices due to the sanction over in the u. s. the fuel prices have 3rd to their highest numbers. in 14 years, the inflation rate is going through the roof to the latest data shows. inflation is at its highest in 40 years, reaching 7.9 percent is well, some people in the us had to say about the situation. not so great is it? because people on a limited budget struggling card that's definitely concerning. what i mean. you really

geopolitical analysts, patrick kennings and believes the sanctions the sanctions regime blood by the u. s . is a dead end for the western economies. western governments are asking people to take on a voluntary hardship economically. and then they began saying that they need to do this to stop, couldn't stop to russians and et cetera. they're now saying though they were never going to deter rusher, change their behavior. and so now it's really just about punishing or containing it and they expect the u. s. is this is going to go on for the next year. there's going to have a devastating impact on energy prices, and that's going to drive the price of everything up. it's a lose lose policy decision. this is like a kind of collective economic suicide packed, being led by washington in the end,

it's very possible that the sanctions could end up hurting the west more than they're actually going to hurt russia in the short medium and possibly even in the long term as well, british delegation that was aiming to persuade india to take an anti russian position, cancelled its trip to the country. the last moment. earlier, the heads of the 2 countries discussed the ongoing conflict in ukraine on the position towards russia. boris johnson urged india to stop adhering to a neutral position and condemn moscow's offensive lorenzo mode if a spot expressed hope for a cease fire, but refused to take any action against russia. moreover, india as abstained on all united nations general assembly resolutions against russia. so far, although it also didn't support a recent south african resolution on humanitarian aid. that didn't blame russia for causing the crisis in these representatives. the un said the resolutions don't

reflect the crisis on the ground. we discussed india's actions with deli based journalist and author like n p. india doesn't want to play a list or, you know, become a junior partner. really big part of this delegation was certainly enhanced to include what it appears to be counseling for imposing sanctions on russia at the behest off need or, and united states. so that was not agreeable and that will not be agreeable to india in. yeah, of course respects the un charter a application has to be, you knew us and you can have a different application. know you and charter for the rest and something really

different for the shower afghanistan. you've seen great do pretty at work and we haven't seen sanctions imposed on a lot of countries that have encroached on 2 sovereign nations and read it to countries under one project. so the other a form that not being punished. pakistan was also among the countries with abstain during the humanitarian aid resolution votes of the un retired pakistan, re lieutenant general, how rude as long photos western countries have been trying to sway pakistan to this side. i think the purpose of this resolution should have been the humanity and not the criticism offer a show all the evil bastards and that of the united that of the britain. a d. e. a master does wrote

a letter to the government of boxed on that we should stand on against russia and make our policy clear as so our government categorically said that that's not going to happen. certainly a neutral stand on pakistan has affected the we a u. s. and you looks at boxed on and our prime minister to kabul decision to visit moscow. so i see really positive improvement in the relations between brush and box plans to kick russia off. the un security council over its actions in ukraine are completely groundless. that's what the former russian president and current deputy chairman of the security council to me to meet via the of claimed, in an interview to archie and rhian overstay. the full interview will be added later today. but here's a quick preview. this president, putin as often insisted that russia only acts to defend itself against the hostile

actions of the west and the recent interviews. and you said that our country has enough mites to put our enemies in that place, which implies that russia has considered some kind of retaliation in the event of aggression. what exactly did you mean by that mister medford f sling long, long listening to pretty much we both know exactly what i meant. russia is not your average country. it's a prominent member of the un security council. and as a side note, let me say that all the ill conceived plans to try and remove us from the security council. a completely groundless this would go against the un charter and the entirety of international law. for that matter, we're talking about the weapons of individual states. this is my 1st point that my 2nd point is russia is a nuclear power with the largest stock pot of strategic nuclear weapons on the planet. naturally, no one is threatening anyone, but you mentioned the remarks made by president booted a few weeks ago, countries, nuclear deterrence forces were put on high alert. it was a simple message that any country that tries to interfere with russia's foreign policy would know what to expect. they heard us and said they wouldn't try anything

. i suddenly hope this is how cool down some of the halter heads in poland and other u. s. satellites. still, they do occasionally come up with ridiculous ideas like closing the airspace or the ukraine. luckily, they are cool headed and reasonable analyst at the pentagon and elsewhere who say this is absolutely out of the question. as it would lead to a direct military confrontation with russia. i think this will be enough for now, although we do have special document on nuclear deterrence, which states explicitly the circumstances under which the russian federation has the right to use nuclear weapons. there are several such conditions. let me remind you of what they are. first is the launch of ballistic nuclear missiles to attack russian territory. second is the use of nuclear weapons or other weapons of mass destruction by an adversary against russian territory or its allies. 3rd has to do with an attack on critical infrastructure, resulting in the crippling of our nuclear deterrence forces and finding forth is when an act of aggression is committed against the russian federation or its allies . whether the nuclear or conventional weapons which threatens the very existence of

the state, all these conditions are listed in the document which was approved by the presence executive order. this testifies to our determination to uphold the independence and sovereignty of russia. let no one have even a slightest reason to doubt that we are capable of giving a proper response to any attack or encroachment on our country, his independence or its policies. but keep in mind that i'm saying all this because you asked the question. obviously opposition is that however complicated and he situation must be approach using deeper matic tools. and in the case of ukraine, negotiations remain the most constructive and reasonable course of action. we realized that diplomacy did not always result in success, but this is still the right way to go. ah, that's all for now. whatever you're doing this weekend, i hope you're having a great one. my name is peter scotts and i'll be back again in 30, but stay tuned for more grade programs our nazi ah

ah ah, with that you.
