9:03 am
amid the ongoing concept, russian armored vehicles can be seen in this footage destroyed and abundant in the village of trough cur. that's near tier ukrainian forces claim they have liberated, in their words, all territory, run the capital after russia said it would scale buckets operation in the region. meanwhile, the russian defense ministry has confirmed a strike on a ukrainian oil terminal. a 3 fuel storage facilities near the city of odessa and southern ukraine fund. it shows terminals up the facility, a blaze of smoke below skywards emergency workers are battling to bring the situation under control pressure pages. they said it would target facilities which ukraine uses to replenish its war efforts. and the red cross cells. pause the evacuations of fighting and murray you will intensifies and blamed a russian blockade for preventing humanitarian deliveries. the russian defense ministry, however, has accused
9:04 am
a ukrainian military feeling to carry out its obligations to open shoot monetary and corridors from the city. moscow also reiterated, but nationalist battalions are continuing to target the evacuation route. something key denies we heard from people trapped in the war torn said evelyn, but my husband and i were in the basement. i stayed and he went out to feed the poppies. he didn't return for a long time. i began to shout, he didn't answer. i followed him, i saw that he was covered in blood. his arm was broken, he had severe blood loss. a young guy came to help. he cut off pieces of skin that had come off my husband's head. the shelling was so strong, i myself was covered in charge of glass. i want the gun fired to stop. it is so scary. 3 though the situation in mario police 10th, they should constantly. i had to remove the car from my broken leg to pull people
9:05 am
out of the rubble of the burned building. and after all that, i had complications needed surgery. thing god, i managed to get some people out of the city. they are what they are about was the answer of ukraine's presidents when he was quiz by fox news about the neo nazi a's of battalion on the atrocities it's excuses. a soft battalion that is said to be nazi affiliated organization, operating as a militia in your country. ah said to be committing their own atrocities, razzles was one of those many battalions. the key of will need you. they are what they ard on join live now by our correspondence don quarter reporting from moscow on ortiz remind cluster of who is currently in daniella. it's dawn, quite an odd reaction. i would suggest from the ukranian president to the question about neo nazi groups operating in the country. tell us more while you're in. fox news really looked like it put the ukrainian president vladimir zalinski on the
9:06 am
spot by asking him what the american people should know about these atrocities that the neo nazi battalion as of is committing his response. they are what they are. the ukranian president seemed to try to justify also that statement by saying that they're now part of the official ukrainian armed forces. so let's take a listen to what he said when everything of, from all the components of those going into battalions later, we're and incorporated into the military of ukraine. those as of fighters are no longer excel for stablished a group. they are a component of the ukrainian military. now, perhaps lensky. there was trying to imply that there is somehow more accountable to ukrainian law now. but it really doesn't look good when a government consciously accept neo nazis into its official armed forces. now, if you were to go onto the internet and go on fox news as online resources to try
9:07 am
to find this part of the interview, you'd be out of luck. that's because it's been white. this part of the interview from all a fox news is online resources and this is only one part actually of a wider campaign in the western media to basically whitewash the as of neo nazi battalion, we've seen attempts to play down their neo nazi sentiments as well. as reports of them torturing russian prisoners of war in a number of outlets. these include the financial times and even the pbc which has shown as all troops wearing nazi symbols on their uniforms in their reporting. and needless to say, this is not really fooling everyone. presidents lensky asked about the crimes of the nazis from the ozell battalion and shooting at prisoners of war. they are what they are. the lensky also confirms that the nazis efficiently serve in the ukrainian army. the u. s. supports the nazi fox, like the rest of the western media, does not show the inconvenient truth which was cut from the interview. the lensky
9:08 am
asked about the torture practiced by the nazi as our regiment, to which the lensky replied. they are what they are a short answer that says a lot regarding his are nazis. so lensky says they are what they are, offers no explanation or remorse or expectation of any justice being done about latest dissolve atrocities of pow torture and killings. was he also tried to justify his support for as all by saying that the battalion was defending it's homeland. this is despite the fact that over the past 8 years, it's been indiscriminately attacking don boss. this is a region that declared independence. but that key of still considers to be its own territory. and throughout this entire time, the mainstream media has largely ignored the atrocities that this brigade has committed while at this time. now they are pretty hard to ignore, especially like the brutal torture and murder of a young woman and mary opal that just took place. she was found with a swastika carved into her corpse. just a warning you may seem, you may find the following images
9:09 am
a bit disturbing. the tears, unless you brought me in for school, if you usually with russia has since launched an investigation into that terrible crime. now, one of the main takeaways from the lensky statement is also that this is basically one of the main reasons why russia began its military operation in ukraine in the 1st place to d, knots of fi, the ukrainian government, and armed forces all the time. the western media has been saying that these people are on the french, they've been saying that the one sky is jewish, so there couldn't possibly be any powerful neo nazis in the ukrainian state apparatus. but here you have it, the ukrainian president basically verifying what moscow has been saying all this time. let's now bring in remind casarez remind you've been reporting from don boss
9:10 am
for large periods since this latest conflict began. and indeed, well before that, what the people there say about the a's off battalions actions or it is indeed a very, very painful subject for the people of dunbar sits azar battalion ides, our battalion and numerous other names. and i want to go back to a president zalinski just for a little bit. he's in that interview. he's also talking about the fact that some members of the assault battalion actually a received a prison sentences. however, since the ra rushes special, very minutes, reparation and ukraine began. most of those people had been released along with other harden criminal criminals, and they had been remodeling into the ukrainian army. well, i saw battalion, they've been accused of committing a war crimes by the united nations before as well. now there were for several documentary news reports made about them as well. not just as all battalions,
9:11 am
but other battalions with the neo nazi affiliations. of course, are plenty of 1st hand accounts here and on boss, as well, including yours truly. i've been working here for the last 8 years and i've seen mass graves left by these nationalist battalions as they were retreated retreating from the oncoming donetta peoples. the republic militia, now i've seen those that footage that say you've shown i've seen something like that with my own eyes. i remember a pregnant woman with her arms tied behind her back and she was dug up and her hands were tied behind her back. and it was absolutely horrible to watch, of course, so over the last a month and a half in the food that the fighting has been taking place in. murray who pulled many of the local residents have also witnessed their shots. these that are being
9:12 am
committed by us off and they told me earlier as well that that's been happening not just over the last month and a half, but over the last 8 years as well as they've been the station there. let's say here some of the account savannah's office now such as of battalion forces were shooting us as they were destroying our houses. they went in and kicked out resident saying, we're defending you. they are nazis. they have been torturing us for 8 years, as well as up to 250 people out of their hands accessing from the 1st floor in line them up in a row. then they began shooting people. 8 people killed or wounded, including children and elderly men. they deliberately use incendiary bombs forcing people out of their homes. st. go wherever you want. i wish they left our city sooner. we didn't call them. since ours off came here in 2014, it's been total lawlessness. one, come on. well, the fighting in maria will have been taking place for quite a while now over a month and a numerous times a russia provide
9:13 am
a humanitarian corridors in order for the people to leave. but each time local residents were not allowed to do so. as the city was encircled by the us all for a battalion, they were preventing the people from leaving and using them as a human shields. and that's according to locals who gave their own a witness accounts. now at the moment, according to a local authorities and 90 percent of marine people is finally a liberated major. fighting at the moment is taking place at adults steel, ha, metallurgy, bland. and it's so it's so situated on around 7 heck, there's of land in the city of marine apple. so that's where the habeas fighting is taking place. but according to a local source in the local authorities and the russian army, that should be ending very soon as well as people are finally looking to rebuild the city of marine level and start a peaceful life once again. thanks for taking us through all thought or among cost
9:14 am
ref undone. quarter earlier now retired u. s. or force lieutenant colonel current gitovski believes presidents alliance. he will find it hard to hold the hayes off battalion to a kind publicly zalinski is saying that he wishes he hopes to hold them accountable for any or if it's proven, or if we get more information he intends to hold him accountable. but unfortunately, the track record that he has, his political situation is such that it's highly unlikely that he will be able to hold them accountable. they're part of his political support structure on it, not to say that he agrees with them all the time, but he is dependent in some ways with, with their agenda. he's a dependent on their agenda to some extent. so it's not like he can simply just get rid of them. i mean, as he said, they are integrated into the military. there was
9:15 am
a reason they were integrated into the military and not rejected from it. certainly americans are anti nazi. they don't want to hear. and then the government doesn't want them to hear that we are in effect aligning with nazis. and we don't want to ask too many questions because we aligned with them in 2014 and we've aligned with them since 1940. in many ways to see a has a long history that's well reported and well acknowledged of working with nazis in europe, in particular, ukrainian nazi group. ukraine is getting wrecked. it's getting wrecked because united states wishes to sacrifice it for to the altar of anti russian propaganda in preservation of the of the dollar is the rules. reserve currency, i mean, this is so much larger, i think, than ukraine, if it doesn't fit into the unit polar maintenance of the united states as a unipolar power of the top dog on the planet. it doesn't relate to that in an anti russian way. we really,
9:16 am
they were not interested in united states media is not interested in anything but supporting the u. s. agenda, which is really not caring about ukraine at all, or the ukrainian people or the ukrainian agriculture or the ukrainian resources. this is really about us versus in particular russia, and then in a larger sense, russia's allies, the kremlin spokesperson, has said the west has gone beyond reason when it's sanctioned the russian president personally. dmitri pesca founded he was also surprised when his own children were targeted. meanwhile, the crippling sanctions aren't just causing pain in russia. german chancellor left shorts was heckled, doesn't angry cry booed him during a speech in the city of s and the
9:17 am
the internet help in downtown raleigh to mark in the beginning of the social democratic party state election campaign. the chanting apparently begun when the chancellor spoke about the war in ukraine. european governments of face growing discontent over rising food and energy, bolts across the continent. or to help people with their those germany's parliament house promise true provide a 300 euro relief payment. however, stay small for the money will still be subject to tax, meaning the final some will be smaller. german officials are likely to feel the pinch though. the wages of the chancellor and some ministers are set to rise. from this month. we ask people in the streets of berlin, what they make, of their governments helping end well, from what they're saying, there's going to be tax on it. it's so stupid, given that it's been created for families that are not doing so well and need the money. they have been hit hard here in berlin, where the cost of living is so high already. it's not
9:18 am
a good situation. i don't touch him time. well, that's simply outrageous. as usual. i don't know what to say to that outrages really outrageous. some of you know, if he does all that well, it's not members of parliament that need to worry about how they're going to get to work tomorrow. actually everybody should resign. now, the way things are going with ukraine and stuff is not so nice. i mean, while belgium is also witnessing soaring fuel prices pushed in part by the relentless functions and post in russia, locals complain it's not only energy being impacted prices for food and everyday products continue to rise. week after week, i'm in a 39 year inflation high in the country. and this is italy. we're demonstrators gathered in genoa to protest against weapons sales amid the ongoing ukrainian crisis. people voice concerns about what the arms would be used for the
9:19 am
also call for peace and in to civilian casualties. me while i am delighted to welcome live onto the program. now frances lun, seo of geo securities, limited hong kong based investment from hello to you. the prime minister frances has already admitted that the current sanctions against russia don't work. is he right? well, i don't know about poland but, but there is a motion i owe and gives us to being sold to countries around the world. for example, like gum countries like germany and leather lens and i think about 30 to 40 the and the g needs met by russia. so it will
9:20 am
be impossible for them not to buy much and i guess so. so in this says it is major european countries like germany continues to buy merchant gas and oil or so the sanctions really doesn't work at all. fuel traces are historic. how he's in europe at the moment. to what extent are the e use own sanctions? do you think in part to blame for that? well, pause the sanction said to be blame for that you're suffering. but the biggest, some of the developing countries, roy paul country lice relent. they now can not afford to buy petroleum again. and just yesterday and the day before, they have no, not enough still to run the city, they have electricity, the star bridge,
9:21 am
the country iraq. why? what 12? i was 13 hours and there, right, is it under industry is the colombo re land so that the run of the sub rate is really borne by the developing countries, the poor countries who cannot afford the high cause of you. what else do you think, frances, that europe perhaps, has its arsenal apart from sanctions? i mean, do you expect the west to take up a more aggressive stance against moscow that perhaps goes beyond sanctions? well, that you have to, as the western countries because i think the u. s. u. k. engineer many and process that they, us, we are heading the engines against russia. and they,
9:22 am
they decided what to do because this is where the everything is going on by standards we are watching. can't believe what, what, what everything is going on. but the fact is, fuel prices, the prices rising, is terrible for the developing countries for the poor people. they cannot afford to feel and they can't afford the full. and this is the real tragedy of them all. but that doesn't seem that that's norris have doesn't seem to be coming over. for instance, in the western media. it's all about people in europe. our people in america may be affected. but as you say, there's a big division in the globe right now. but who's going to be hit the worst? well, was the poor countries. but the most, for example, the price of oil is that of last year,
9:23 am
and the price of gas is something like $3.00 times. and the price of food is something that 50 percent of last year. well we'll talk countries. people just can't afford to feed them. and these countries just, they don't even have the one exchange reserve to buy feel. and so you talk about separate, you better look at that developing countries, the countries well, we do appreciate your taking very interesting to hear the view as well. frances, learn ceo of g o securities limited a hong kong based investment for me. thanks for your time. there you are now hungry is voting today and parliamentary elections with the you keeping a keen eye on the results. and indeed what it could mean for the block as
9:24 am
a whole with we're an all volunteer chartina risk norsen parliamentary elections. usually a battle between parties or candidates, but where the off coming vote in hungary, things are not that simple. the choice is for the country's future and its due political self identification. is it with nato and the e. u or is it looking eastwards and yes, it's also all about ukraine. and while hungry is yet to make his choice, some seem to be willing to have a hand on it to have. the situation is clear that there is ongoing coordination between the hungary left on the ukrainian and hungary left to take over the government. they would immediately begin shipments and they would immediately vote in favor of sanctions on oil and gas shipment. all those accused denied the claim, but it turns just how heated things ahead of the vote off and how the you credit question overshadows at all. so who is on hungary is candidate list the front runner leading by a small margin. he's sitting president victor or been leader of the ruling party
9:25 am
that has been in power for 12 years dogged an autocrat and the 21st century dictator by the west. oregon has long been a thorn in the us side. had to these his conservative pro, family, anti l g b, t and anti migrant values. but what's even more crucial ukraine organs of neutral line was seen by some as coziness with putting although he joined you sanctions. she refused to ban russian guys, emperors or send arms to key f. that will do you, has it a, whether to impose sanctions or not? do you hazard aid whether to weapons through or not? do you, has it a, whether to trade with rush or not? there is no time to hesitate. it's time to decide already the war of war and has now gone further. we ukraine's deputy prime minister suggesting that budapest itself, once a chunk of ukraine and territory. hungary does not support the sanctions. they don't provide weapons. they don't allow transit of weapons supplies from other
9:26 am
countries. they say no to practically every. before long budapest official rhetoric will be openly pro russian. what is this all about? do they want some cheap russian gas? or maybe they want our docket better region. but nothing seemed to scare open. he remained firm with giving the ukrainians everything we can perhaps even beyond our capacity. but we will not comply with any demands of theirs which would destroy our national community, either in a biological sense, with our sons dying in someone else's war or with the ruination of hungary economy . faith in over a group of fixed opposition parties and the candidate whose loyalties are clear, the belong to the west, belongs to be the b u. but over and office to choose not size, not groups, but between war and peace. and his message seems to be resonating with voters according to polls. the war has cast a shadow over the whole hungarian election campaign. the question of peace and security is now also part of what's at stake in the election. and our message is
9:27 am
clear only the fidel policy can create peace in hungary. only we can guarantee the security of the hungarian people blinking sharply from nato allies and not waving your quoting flagging, fully very. t might close to other european leaders in election, but it seems not organ on the opposite. his policy of hungary 1st could take him to victory, which might make europe even more nervous and more divided than now. this is a referendum of decision whether direction, whether the direction of hungry will go east works or eastward, and european or just european america is hungry changes the government. europe will enter. busy close the door east works and will be isolated and. busy will suffer an economic downturn which will eventually break up into
9:28 am
europe if barbara and he in place. we still have a door open to east to the east. and europe will have a slight chance to re open the relationships towards russia, china and all the other countries piece works. so this is, i think event even essential for euro that often will say empower secret bio labs, creating dangerous viral infections, truth or fiction. short dark attempts to separate one from the other. and it's next ah ah, to what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it crazy confrontation,
9:29 am
let it be an arms race is on offense. very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult time time to sit down and talk with you will see it deliberately are supposedly reco pricey, but you will see i need to, i was here to was in time with abilities for those to delegate, raise and show me the global measures unless you mean you me 0 is different than certain, but you do it the bill. cheese to break means this to a better one is to show that you come back to by logical experiments on so just
