people bring this in for different reasons. i'm for a cash reward. others out of a sense of duty and also ahead on the program, the use foreign policy chief warrant against creating global division and pushing russia closer to china, all at the same time calling for more sanctions on multiple with wherever you're counting the program from today. welcome to moscow on to the global news update on r t. i'm, you know, neil ukrainian emergency services have confirmed that firefighters have put out an enormous blaze of the fuel depot in the western city of la, evolve. the fire started after the warehouse was hit by a russian missile, which also left a defense facility in flames. local authority,

the 10 residential buildings on a library were damaged when ukrainian forces shell, the city in the loop, ganske republic on saturday. that was reported by local military authorities, no casualties were reported in purple mice, but local resident, se continual attacks of left them fearing for their lives. the least we were sitting here in the basement from 11 to 8 o'clock in the evening. but one rocket strike after another again and again. and when it hit hard here, you can understand that my wife, who was sitting a metre away from the incoming shell, was saved by god's well, we moved away from this wall which was hit by the shell and stood there until 8 o'clock in the evening. my hands are shaking, said he was on the 100, so now it is impossible to be here. i didn't sleep the whole night because all this is hard for me. meanwhile

r t hands visited the southern ukrainian city of mili topo which was taken under control of the russian army a month ago with more in her life their house progressed in the time. you're sure senior correspondent for go. steve, in cities and towns across ukraine, liberated during the russian special operation here in the country. life is gradually returning to normal. this is the city of multiple we why here? just scott, days off, the ukranian troops had abandoned that when blown up tags was still. and the streets, the city was empty, every one was in their homes, in mean basements in shelters, waiting and fearing what would happen next. now that 23 weeks have passed. things a much comma people, once again has in the streets. many shops are open and the fear the fear has dissipated. confident that the worst is over, people have begun to open up. they are no longer afraid that ukraine security

services will nationalists will come knocking on their door. if they say something that government doesn't like to reach them. yeah, yeah, my yes, there, i support one lanham. you're couldn't said the not suffocation and demilitarization from so that no one would carry weapons in the country would be neutral or no, nazis would be around this. everything has become peaceful here. russian forces did not kill anyone who was quite the opposite. lay portent. you will be the union yet of going home. i don't believe the information might crane you. thanks a message as a sand you. i don't want to marry the natalie. it's like an a c, t enamel came with that, give it to my children, live in russia. i'm alone happily there war. and even though i say that emerson is normal, not mine. the city now has a new mayor who presides over a joint military civilian administration. she's well aware of the challenges ahead, but he's confident or confident that melody bull can overcome the hurdles. the key

of his set, zalinski government has cut off millions of its own citizens in areas liberated by russia, depriving them of wages, access to national records, and even the ability to register newborns to shuffle la 30. his thought. and now we cannot. ranches to marriage is the bass of children property for one simple reason . the a korean government has sensually disabled old databases under command from the center. the banks withdrew the money supply from head. this led to shortage of cash come festival employees of the civil service and pensioners suffer when they were still a man from the per shanker solidarity party. here they turned off the electricity in the city that led to linton, the jackie. this is identical to what he did to the don bass, sparking a colossal humanitarian crisis prompt in russia. the said aid medicines and even pensions to the region identical. but for the shelling and attacks,

now ukrainian troops are being driven back in russian national guardsman are helping to keep all the while those again is that was almost a funnel character. we are often approached with social questions, are you, we help in any way? we can, we pass the request of civilians to the local administration and most of the hand over ammunition to ask for a reward. we returned cars to residence that were taken away by the militia, created by the ukrainian authorities. as it retreated, the ukrainian military left behind a vast quantity of weapons. aside from all the gods that handed out the civilians, those arms are now being collected handed involuntarily by people in liberated areas. because the machine up with over whenever a man tried to hide this machine gun ammunition belt in the cemetery, i saw this and brought it to the common dance office because it is dangerous for children and civilians. these fully loaded machine gun belt is far from the biggest

hole that's been brought in. people have brought in all sorts of weapons including pistols, assault rifles, machine guns, grenade launchers, with all sorts of ammunition. certainly people bring this in for, for different reasons. some for a cash reward, others out of a sense of duty. the other task handled by russian national guardsman and local volunteers is manning, checkpoints, infiltration, saboteurs, and weapons. smugglers are a serious threat. this is one of the checkpoints outside the city of military people where russia national guardsman, ah, at a checkpoint, outside the city. this is the road leading to mario book. every single car is checked and the luggage, the boot is also checked by russian trooper for weapons or any private items. this direction is especially important. as i mentioned, it leads to the city of mario book and over the past few weeks,

hundreds of ukrainian nationalists as well as soldiers. among them near nazis have attempted to flee from the city of mary opal disguised as refugees. there are multitude of these checkpoints are wrong along the roads. at very few nationalists now make it out without being caught during screening a sub renewable share melody. we pay special attention to people because under the guise of civilians fighters from the ukrainian armed forces or neo nazis, trying to drive through. we check people's documents because they have been cases when neo nazi tried to leave a war zone under the guise of a family. many residents treat the checks with understanding support us. thank us you them. undoubtedly, things will to return to normal and pill. this conflict reaches its conclusion and power is handed over entirely to civilians. when that will happen, he's so far and clear. but in the meantime, a little bull's new governor. he's determined to keep her city alive and strong in

these troubled times. eugene against the little sto, would lose people 100, everything will be better, they believe in x t satiate these extra patients with me there's, i'm afraid to disappoint people and hope that i will meet their expectations. usually a couple more guys via of tea from relatable ukraine on perhaps some hope ahead. the head of the russian delegation after ukraine talks vladimir madame sky has announced the next round of negotiations will take place on tuesday and wednesday they will meet face to face again. in turkey, the 2nd meeting in the country between officials from kiev and moscow, kellett said ticketed don boss, another village there has recently come under the control of the done yet people's republic forces. many houses were left damaged by pitched off falls in the area footage. also shows walls of nutsy inspired literature that had been stored in the

local school library and was abundant by ukrainian militants as they retreated. while an italian journalist, whose reporting from the ground in dawn bus has recorded video message to his country's president in the online post, he accuses western media of distorting its coverage of the conflict. in particular, when it comes to the role of ukrainian neo nazi battalions, middle gen think invited him, is your nick at bar la? i see people on tv talking about modernity, about morality. and they say that putin as a criminal, that putin is a criminal than we are 10 times worse. these days we are mocking the anniversary of the destruction of bel grade. tons of bombs were from the city based on fake news. you can also remember iraq, new syria, libya, afghanistan. but if you remind them of all this, they will not want to hear about it. i stopped random people in interview them. they'll tell me they were locked in their basement and couldn't get out. many say

they sheltered them to keep them from leaving by they, they mean the neo nazi battalions. and then i say on the washington post that these militants read works by can't get if i went to the form of faces, whether on nazi symbols, i saw books about ss gods about miscellany. then we'll told about the nationalist organizations in italy. while here we see the real nazis holding the whole state hostage above the door. and a group of foreign journalists also have the chance to visit a village in luke ganske republic, which was taken under the control of people's forces around a month ago with locals. now, receiving humanitarian aid delivered by russian troops, one german reporter described his emotions on arrival would have load ah storm to throw. so she knew but a baby. i feel surprised. this is a place that endured fighting and you normally expect people to be outraged about this nevada, but it's vice versa. here. people are welcoming the russian troops if they are glad

they have come. every one is talking about the horrors of the last 8 years. if it causes strong emotions, yeah, let somebody know what the confident of so on the internet, people's for public information ministry has released video, allegedly showing ukrainian forces shooting and beating russian prisoners of war. the head of russia's investigative committee has ordered an investigation into the instant just to point out where we won't show the disturbing video for ethical reasons as it betrays bones. soldiers lying on the ground with multiple bullet wounds to their legs, while others have broken bones. the as yet on verified content has caused outrage on social media and has been commented on by ukrainian officials, decker to brochures know about the scene. i remind everyone that abusing prisoners of war is a war crime that does not carry amnesty under international law and does not have an institute of limitations. we are a european army over european country. we treat prisoners according to the geneva convention, no matter what your personal emotional motives may be. ukrainian soldiers shoot to

russian prisoners of war and the legs and film themselves doing it. video below shows about 6 other russian soldiers with similar wounds. without question, it's a war crime, and there is nothing to justify it. if war crimes don't disturb you, because they're against russians, think about how the soldiers who are willing to shoot unarmed prisoners might be willing to treat ukrainian civilians. ah, the use foreign policy chief has wound up the ukrainian conflict, could push russia closer to china, which could then lead to a rift between the global south east and northwest use upper l. now that the only way to stop that happening is by ramping up efforts to end the war quote, today and on the bad consequences of what's happening is that we can push russia to china. and we can create a division between what weekend se, the se, the global se,

and the global northwest. and we have to avoid these trend. and in order to avoid this trend or 1st thing to do is to stop this war of aggression. war of attrition. today, and that's what we are doing to support ukraine, also by military means without escalation, without a orders on total vertical escalation that could bring, bring to her beaker conflict. and tried to put pressure in russia by all our capacities in order to make, to pay the price of it. ortiz kill my pin, has been taking a look at the global ramifications of the conflict in ukraine and sanctions on russia. now you my saying that the russia, ukraine conflict is just between 2 countries, but in reality it's got global implications. there are currently around $10000.00 nato servicemen stationed at military facilities and naval bases in ukraine of

which $4000.00 or from the united states, u. s. military and cia personnel have been training forces in ukraine for a long time. meanwhile, britain just decided to send 6000 new defensive missiles as well as 25000000 pounds sterling and aid. plus there's been an inflow with international volunteers. mm hm. it is with my customer account and who can forget the economic fall out? the sanctions on russia are already taking their toll throughout the european union . sanctions should always have a much larger effect on the russian side. done on our side. it's not our intention to impose sanctions, the unnecessarily weaken our economy. but we are entering an unprecedented food

crisis because other countries in the middle east or africa are very dependent on products from ukraine and russia to feed their population. the pandemic already saw an increase in malnutrition throughout africa. but now the new sanctions on russia are making things worse. russian fertilizer exports have been affected and the price of food and fuel is rising. the escalating ukraine crises has been a b, has a dental big bill to the east africa honda crisis at the moment. it has sent prices . oh, key communities such as agree, patella's, owens cranbrook, antiques really impacting, especially the poorest and most vulnerable and who are struggling with affording that the united nations is already speaking up about this. you could, i mean people are including a living hell and the reverberations that being felt worldwide is skyrocketing, food, energy and fertilizer prices. so deafening to speedo into

a global hunger prices. oil traders are now predicting that the price of petroleum could go up to $200.00 per barrel. by the end of 2022. around the world, many observers have got to be asking themselves, is sticking it to russia really worth all of this? the impact of these global advance could be quite hard to undo. caleb martin r t new york earlier joseph gregory mahoney, a professor of politics and international relations discussed with us the prospects of greater relations between moscow and paging. well, let's keep in mind that the strengthening of relations between china and russia have 3 fundamental causes. first lead us destabilize central asia, and russia and china had to work together to try to clean up the mess. second, the u. s. d, stabilize the middle east, pushing china closer to russian oil. and 3rd, the 2 countries share a long border and need peaceful relations with each other. now,

there are other reasons for the country to be friends, but these 3 points are shared strategic interests that do appear to be deepening. as the u. s. takes a harder line against both countries. but europe has a major concern here because it's resisted us, antique china positions in many respects. and it's got a lot at stake in terms of trade with china. now obviously the u. s. would like to change that and the european to pursue a fearful that all of this will drive a wedge between them and china as well. oh, the long term, i think we'll continue to see cooperation through groups like briggs, the shanghai cooperation organization, remind sia trilateral strengthening of relations between russia, china and india. and we might see military cooperation expanding after the dust settles and ukraine. ah, linked to the sky high energy prices of play, europe for the past few months. and now sanctions against russia fueling further discontent by propelling at those close to never before seen levels. and that fled

to frustration in many countries, including spain. the dozens of marine on cement mixtures of occupied highways around the spanish capital, an improvised march that started as athletic madrid. football stadium was held to sloop traffic and draw attention to drastically rising food and fuel prices. elsewhere in spain highway leading to portugal was blocked when fishermen and the ton of monte set fire to a wall of tires to protest. as far the course of the country hose being gripped by demonstration stage by the various trade unions in an effort to address the problem, the government offered truckers, or rebates and one time cash of the group on the protesters rejected the offer on valve to key thought protest coat in death,

ranking fuel and energy prices as well as overall living costs. we ignited the yellow best protest movement of next month. presidential election protestors have accused candidates of feeling to understand their concern. let's take a grease. we're after weeks of protesting the price of fuel. people are now faced with another consequence of the sanctions against russia. the shelves, supermarket chains across the country have a nice the restriction on flower and sunflower, oil seals, viewers grow of a reduction in supplies due to the ongoing conflict in ukraine. grease imports about 30 percent of its weight from russia and ukraine. on to the us, some drivers are crossing international borders to buy petrol as prices keep rising on the back of sanctions against russian or san diego residents are seen here in mexico's western most city of t a wanna on saturday, filling up their cars. tanks,

petrol, prices, there are a only $2.00 lower per gallon than in california. well, among those e, you states that disagree with the blocks harsh line on russia is hungry, which has rejected calls to ban rushing gas to take sides and the conflict. despite please, from ukraine's president who hungary, i want to stop here and be honest once and for all, you have to decide for yourself who you are with. the answer to the question of which side hungry is on is that hungary is on hungary side. neighboring poland has worn the such policies will cost hungry in the future. budapest though is pointed out, imports more than half of its oil and gas from russia and sanctions on russian energy would mean not. the hungarian economy would be severely impacted, political commented around me, webber believes more countries are starting to give functions on moscow are

actually counter productive for them. we're not looking at just, you know, a 2 or 3 percent interest increase in the cost of living. we're talking about massive increases and we need to look at say, the u. k. recently, where a watson fall way that we could buy actual a one pound chain leisure. and he's now about one c plus a liter, even with the chance for reducing to us by, by pencil asia, which is or patch of the man made no difference at all. but then this is the interesting thing because if you look shopping with the u. k, spring budget. the government's been going to do, but she's not going to help alleviate her costs or living crisis in the k. and they

are not the see the small was to call. we just the check that the iceberg now. so you the yes they will be countries who will start to look at their interests. well, the ukrainian crisis has highlighted the u. k is heavy reliance on russian diesel imports. and while the u. k has recently been came to emphasize its move away from russian gas dependents on moscow for diesel has had fewer mentions, according to official british government figures in 2020, at london imported most of its diesel from russia, leaving other large suppliers the netherlands on saudi arabia. trailing demand for russian fuel up to them has been on the rise since 2010 with supplies increasing by almost 8 percent that says u. k. domestic production of diesel fell over the same time period. the u. k. bond oil and gas from rush in response to the countries operation in ukraine with

imports at the start by the end of 2022. but london has been struggling to find substitute suppliers. maurice johnson recently held talks with gulf states, the u. v. on saudi arabia, who's human rights records, have repeatedly made headlines. well, amid severe a condemnation among the western community to russia's actions in ukraine, officials from the middle east point. so at the apartment, disproportionate level of attention to different crises around the world. the humanitarian suffering that we have seen in the ukraine, and everyone is talking about it right now. that has been the suffering go for lots of countries in this region. 4 years, we have never seen a global response to either us nor sufferings. i hope those are all so would it be a wake up call for everyone in the international community to look at our region and toward that us are these shows that's happening in our region with the same

level of commitment that we have seen between russia and ukraine commission of r l mentioned that the mario pull is europe's i'll epo. well epo was our aleppo fully. who was bonding a label? not due to a piano, but the engagement of the global community. the engagement of if, if, how's that could be effective now and then is quite different. when those accusations of double standards come as western countries sick to reduce reliance on russian energy with washington turning to the middle east to meet gaps in oil supply. as we mentioned, it's also been reported, washington transferred a large number of anti missile interceptors to saudi arabia in recent weeks, is despite the humanitarian catastrophe in yemen. the result of a 7 year war in the country between the saudi led coalition and hootie rebel groups . always since i'll be em and east filled the streets of the war torn countries capital on saturday. march of rush free of the conflict and voice, their anger. the lead military campaign in the country are correspond reachable

everyone has been delving into why each monetary and crisis in yemen received so little international attention. while the binding ministration imposes unprecedented sanctions on russia, claiming concern for the fate of civilians in ukraine, that concern appears to be non existent for civilians in yemen as the devastating war and their country enters is a year instead of another thing, things they get saudi arabia over israel and the conflict that has resulted in the worst humanitarian crisis in the world fight and is doing the opposite. he's working the gain back. saudi arabia's favor amid unease that any disruption and the kingdom oil supply to the u. s. could be devastating, as washington moves to ban all energy imports from russia. but even though the war and ukraine has received more attention, all social media in just one month than the war in yemen, received in 7 years just how bad is the crisis?

well, it's estimated that nearly 400000 people have died more than 15600000 people currently live in extreme poverty as milling in space, hunger, and starvation. and now the united nations is predicting that more than 1300000 people will have died as a result of this war by 2030. and that nearly 70 percent of those just will be children. under the age of 5, we're 1000000000 short failure to provide this year a few extra $1000000000.00 means you're going to have famine destabilization and mass migration. yeah, the grilling prices in yemen over the last 7 years. house out the u. s. from providing support for the saudi led coalition, with the buying and ministration, reportedly moving to approving new batch of patriot interceptors this week after previously denying the saudi's request last year seawall. the u. s. may claim it is concern for civilians in ukraine and is also concerned about the stability of the energy market as it works to shut out rushes contributions to the global supply.

that means that bite is now working overtime to maintain labor with saudi arabia. as the king them sides with russia on production plans and even considers accepting payments using the chinese you are. as a result, the saudi crown prince knows exactly how many cards he holds here and has said he doesn't care. i didn't understand the saudi. simply, i do not care. it's up to him to think about the interests of america. however, biting does care. that's why he appears to be carrying on the longstanding u. s. tradition of ignoring both the crisis in yemen and reports of human rights abuses and saudi arabia in order to maintain access to saudi oil with bins on saudi money and saudi purchases of armaments for war and elsewhere. so it does not want to consolidate too much. on the one hand, the thought is on the other,

and along with the united arab emirates, they see some ability to assert some sort of autonomy. so with the decisions that there are states may in regard to the u. s. so that is why. 1 the so eager to just get on the bandwagon, criticizing russia for its actions and following the u. s. and last and that's where the r t news team that says good bye for now, but don't go too far. as our programs are only starting see bought a showing in moment ah.
