ah ah rushes for a minute. the death is the killings in the ukrainian city of boucher as a provocation named it, derailing moscow's peace talks with what is the reason for this outraged provocation? we tend to think that the reason lies in the desire to find an excuse to disrupt the ongoing negotiations. it emerges a far right nationalized battalion was among the forces who entered boucher right after the russian withdrawal. we take a closer look at the units leader and as the us cause for justice and a trial for alleged russian war crimes, we examine why the us itself has historically not being subject to some international norms or human rights bodies.

ah, a warm welcome. this is ancy international with the latest world news update is good to have you with us. now, i top story, the killings in the ukrainian city of butcher and international reaction is an attempt to derail moscow's peace talks with care of that. according to russia, the foreign minister, a disturbing footage of dead civilians line in the city streets was released by ukraine over the weekend, as well as circulating in the media kit has blamed russia for the incidental allegation. moscow has strongly denied. so sidney propagate discrimination was up of the western and ukrainian propaganda has exclusively been inflating hysteria around the video, which as we understand it was filmed by the ukrainian military in the city of lucia

in the key of regional the frank orchestration. and to see, to learn about alleged to war crimes on the russian military has been proven. many times. this beckons the question, well, what is the reasons for this outright provocations? we tend to think that the reason lies in the desire to find an excuse to disrupt the ongoing negotiations gives about women refused, and the situation in better with why they discussed during the un security council . on tuesday. when they malala killed leaving it. they killed whole families, adults and children, and they try to burn their bodies, how to stop it, immediately bring them russian military and those who gave them orders to justice for war crimes in ukraine. everyone who gave criminal orders and fulfilled him by killing people will face a tribunal. similar to the nuremberg trials, none of the culprits will escape no one by the. as russia is forced into retreat from areas around keith, the brutality of the invasion is laid bare. we've all

seen the horrific images from the towns of boucher and a pin of civilians deliberately killed in areas from which russian forces have we recently withdrawn. giovanni and all acquisitions, strictly based on facts before conclusions are drawn apart, as should exercise restraint and avoid unfounded acquisitions. we've received a breeze today. there's done the middle east. we came to ukraine to bring the long awaited piece to the bleeding. dumbass, not a truce, but a real lasting piece. and for that is necessary to route out cruelty to cast out the malignant neo nazi kuma that's consuming ukraine and would eventually begin to consume russia. and we will achieve this goal hopefully, sooner rather than later. there can be no other way out. we do not hit civilian objects in order to save as many civilian people as possible. that's why we're not moving as fast as many expected. we're not acting like america or its allies acted

in iraq and syria, wiping out entire cities. they didn't feel sorry for them, but we feel sorry for them because they are people close to us. so i think there is no denying that there was fierce battle in butcher lots of casualties on the military side, both on the inside as well as on the russian side. and how many civilians have been killed in between. i think they need to be investigated. however, single mind it allegation without real cruel and without verification to establish all the facts will not achieve the goal. and i think eventually, we really need to depend on the outcome and the results of an independent unbiased investigation into what exactly happened in butcher the teacher that civilians was published by ukrainian officials as well as media outlets. the pictures were

released after the russian army withdrew and ukrainian forces entered the area. he craned his accused russian forces of carrying out the killings. what happened and butcher seems to entirely depend on what different sides want to have happened and butcher. what actually happened seems to be of little concern. ukraine that salads accuse russia, russia and its allies, ukraine every day. the news about horror stories becomes more and more delusional. however, the key f fake machine won't stop in order to humanize russia and denigrate it as much as possible. the mad animals from the nationalist battalions and territorial defense forces are ready to kill their own civilians. at the end of march, russian forces quickly pulled out of the area. on the 31st, the mayor of butcher, in a video announced that the town had been re captured by ukrainian troops. he did mention

any corpses, which, according to keith's version, already lifted the streets very, he threw his dear friends dear buchan community march 30. first. we'll go down in the history our town. as the day of its liberation from russian forces, ukrainian troops sent to the town soon after grizzly images flooded, social media, alleged and disputed satellites. images which western media claim to have been shot more than a week before. suddenly showed bodies everywhere. some near impact craters, butcher had been on the ceaseless ukrainian military shelling, even after russian forces had left. the united states to liberally glossed over the father after the withdrawal of russian troops, the arm force of ukraine shell to peach, a city many of the corpses. little round butcher also wore white arm bands, controversial end and of itself. ukraine claims that russian forces shot dead

civilians who co operated with russia, who apparently showed support. some of the victims had their hands tied again with white cloth, ukrainian. nationalists themselves commented on the hated arm band saying that they justified shooting at any one wearing them. these arm bands are used by the invaders themselves as an identification sign during fighting. therefore, ukrainian defenders may confuse civilians with russian invaders factor in that bus and military rations were also scattered around many of the bodies indicating that they had been given them by russian troops just before. and this is what kiya claims. they shot them dead, mentioning his ukraine's collaboration rule enacted recently. and the ukranian civilian who is deemed to have call pirated with russian troops and presumably worn a white arm band faces 15 years in jail. that is, if they survive arrest by ukrainian troops under these nonsensical circumstances.

what hoop does the un school for a fair investigation have? it is vital that all efforts made to ensure though independent and effective investigations into what happened in between. so truth justice and accountability, as well as reparations and remedy for victims on their families. fair words in unfair times, given the war and the unprecedented level of propaganda and bis information in the media. many have already made up their minds. the pictures from butcher testified to the incredible brutality of the russian leadership in dos who follow its propaganda, facts, truths, evidence, and culpability. the things of a now dead, the era in this new age, emotion, and interests, established guilt and atrocities. sadly have become sickening spectacles. where the judges, he or she who shouts, loudest,

and with president zalinski accusing russia of killing civilians, one ukrainian top officials called who residence of the calf region to be brought to justice due to that alleged cooperation with russian soldiers. there were collaborators who gave away the location of our soldiers, those scoundrels who leaked information about the heads of government bodies, volunteers, participants of the anti terrorist operation, traitors among local residents because of whom both civilians and members of the military died. to bring these persons to justice, please share their details so they can literally call for pogroms like this advisor did. you did this guy type of vigilante justice usually ends up with local settling their own private scores of the law. busy innocence, getting hurt, due process, what is that? there's no due process. and you can just basically accused of anybody being a sabbath tour and committee unspeakable repression under

disguise, of you know, fighting traitors. and yet the fact that they're so brazen about it. and so open about it testifies to the kind of media coverage that they have on part of the western propaganda machinery. the u. s. envoy to the event on tuesday code for the suspension of russia on the human rights council saying moscow uses it as a platform for propaganda. the united states and coordination with ukraine and many other you and member states will seek russia's suspension from the you and human rights council. russia is using its membership on the human rights council as a platform for propaganda to suggest russia has a legitimate concern for human rights. they do not belong on the human rights council. and while the night states accused as russia of war crimes, the washington has historically been subject to scrutiny with accusations of war crimes you are engaged with us. harry campaigns ortiz, maria finacialow,

takes up the story. the u. s. says there should be an investigation that may sound exactly like what moscow has been repeatedly asking for. but it's not the prob, mary case talking about is not into what happened or who did what and when in the quinn, in town of butcher but into russia's actions there. although the disturbing video emerged, days after russian troops left the town and even days after it was reclaimed by keith's forces, it seems beside the responsible has already been found. next us national security advisor jake sullivan says materials for the court will be collected from intelligence services or organizations like un eye witness accounts from ukrainians on the ground and interviews from global independent media. while so far, only certain american bridge and ukrainian journalists have been allowed to enter butcher. and finally, the case according to solomon should be handled at the international criminal court

and behave whose authority, the united states of america, ironically does not even recognize. we have to understand that the united states did not make itself a party to that criminal court and does not allow its citizens to be tried in it. so there is a bit of you might say hypocrisy to say others should be tried, but are shouldn't. when things happen and things do happen, and i see here reports from november 14th, 2016, contains data on us army war crimes, ganesh, done. members of us armed forces appear to have subjected at least 61 detained person to torture, cruel treatment outrages upon personal dignity on the territory of afghanistan between the 1st of may, 2003 and the 31st of december 2014. the majority of the abuses are alleged to have occurred in 2003, 2004. but the u. s. made it clear they were not interested in cooperation with

a hague. we do not believe that an icpc examination or investigation with respect to the actions of the us personnel in relation to the situation in afghanistan is warranted or appropriate. what is appropriate is the use of military force to free united states, military personnel, and other elected and appointed officials of the american government in case they entertained by v i c. c. this is what the 2002 have invasion act is all about the states that have ratified this treaty or trying to strengthen the rule of law, the bush administration is trying to punish them for that. and that's not all. they seem to be reading to threaten behaved directly. if the court comes after us, israel or other u. s. allies, we will not sit quietly. we will let the, i see, see, die on its own. after all, for all intents and purposes, the icpc is already dead from wards and laws to action in 2020 on

a president. trump the us imposed sanctions on some icpc officials and certain unnamed individuals involved in the ccs efforts to investigate us. personnel cancelling their american visas and blocking their accounts. we hold our own accountable better than the i, c. c has done for the worst perpetrators of mass criminal atrocities. the court itself has no means to put any pressure on the u. s. in the end, they simply gave up. after reviewing matters carefully, i have reached the conclusion that at this time there is no longer the prospect of genuine and effective domestic investigations within afghanistan. the united states is now appealing to the sci fi as an authority, an arbitrator in international disputes. but washington itself seems to have done more than anyone else to actually this credit behave. the killings in the ukrainian city of boucher sparked widespread outrage with care of a key thing. russian forces of being responsible and calling for justice mosca has

denied the allegations accusing key as of a provocation. events occurring in the days around the discovery of the killings have been in focus over the last few days. already takes a closer look at the time line and the forces that enter future as russian forces withdrew. the day after the russian forces left boucher, the so called bossman boys from the ukrainian territorial defense moved in their command as surrogate court kick cole name a bossman posted the following. actually there is nothing to do there. just mountains of burnt equipment and houses. on the 2nd of april, the craning army documented their sweep at the city. wrecked calls at broken tanks, destroyed buildings and disarray, but no bodies. and then bossman posted a video with summer without a blue ribbon is a civilian,

not publicly showing loyalty to ukraine. he ordered from boston, his unit was clare, shoot them all at a later claims of the butcher, genocide rang out around the world. bossman deleted his previous post, instead started praising the west condemnation of the atrocities. so who is bossman? the short answer, a lifelong neo nazi with a very colorful past, an ex bell, russian citizen and member of far right group. since the ninety's back in 2004 bossman co founded the nationalist socialist society and neo nazi group now banned in russia. a few years laissez, he was accused of a failed bomb attack on one of moscow's main squares. but he really rose to notoriety when it grows, the video of his emerged in 2007, showing a pair of masked executioners shooting amber heading to migrants. bossman, fred, russia, 1st of billers, and then to ukraine. and while he managed to have a justice, his fellow and s s members did not. in 2011,

13 members of the group led by crockett, the national socialist society were convicted for 27 murders and 50 assaults in 2008. in ukraine. bossman landed on his feet, he became an instructor in the as of battalion, and then a commander fighting the separatists in dumbass. and despite alarm from local media and human rights groups, bosman was personally handed a ukrainian passport by then the president petro portion co, where he was snap doing the nazi son salutation. i said than a year after arriving in ukraine, he became head of the department of strategic objects and apparently enjoyed the patronage of the former minister of internal affairs. as his status rose, so did his finances. he had managed to accrue a $1000000.01 and a half cave apartments in a private plane in less than a year and all on an official salary of $237.00 a month. rumors possessed that bossman continues his life of crime. in recent years,

2 of his close acquaintances have died in suspicious circumstances, and he's also been linked to the murder of a journalist. when will came to ukraine, he showed his willingness to fight dirty bulls. you are just devils that decided to talk you crave well, we're waiting for you, please come. we're going to play football with his 7 heads. and it seems he's being supported by people far away with bossman, boasting of gifts from a u. s. military company on his social media. clearly they're on concerned about his check at past. just as the media seem willing to forgive him his sins when they took bossman at his word about the events in boucher. meanwhile, russia has latched it out. the pressure on the ukranian far right battalions of the embattled city of mario pole. as the russian ministry of defense is announced his intention to finish clearing it alongside done yet. republic forces fighters from the as all battalion refused to be evacuated by a humanitarian corridors. as of the ukrainian army trips laid down,

the weapons now says to ukrainian helicopters, apparently tried to evacuate the as a battalions commanding offices that was shot down according to russian official battles in mario paul, on going with the cities, methodological plants. they lost the area controlled by ukrainian forces. humanitarian cargo is from mario poll. have a legend being targeted in shelling by nationalists forces. despite the dangers they remain open with humanitarian aid, with their deliver inside the city, with food and essential goods being distributed to different areas, correspondent women calls are up is on the ground with the latest. we're just delivered to minutes. aaron aid and medicine to a couple of addresses say, here in my renewable, and as always, people are pleading with us so to take him through safe areas are isa. nickaligha is one of those people, and we are taking her with us to them is can you

tell us what happened to you a little at 1st, we were hiding in the vestibule, on the, on the elevators. my son, who lives in the nats told me, mother, he's about to not go to the basement with my flat was burnt down. that's why i moved to another entrance where i lived together with a 90 year old woman. every time there was shooting was so flames, but we got used to it. what are you a school movie? do you will meet her son and daughter in law to day? what do you feel about? oh yeah. i don't know how to describe it. i don't know what i will tell them. right now. i'm calling right. he says daughter in law ah logs on her roster. jimmy as a whole drama goes a larger they did just a year ago. he is a human yet still, but he's a nickaligha nightmare. a

very go another area hartfield says story and died about 230 to 40 minutes. they will reunite with that. we will go back to variable morrow and the next day or friday night somebody else. of course, there are hundreds of people out there who have no contact with their loved ones. ukrainian civilians are being displaced not only within the country, but also flee and gets his refugees to the west. with poland remaining one of the

main hub excepting people. one of them gave an interview to a spanish tv channel revealing the details of what was done to him by his country's army. our government and military has abused us during interrogation. they treated us like dogs. i was confronted by 8 people threatening me with imprisonment and beatings. they said they would take me to the backyard to beat me. the estimate for them the us will impose a new sanctions package on russia over the war and ukraine, and includes a ban on all investments and increased pressure on financial institutions and state owned companies, as well as government officials on their families. the sanctions aim to push russia closer to a default and impacts the countries dollar with us. russia does not have unlimited resources, especially now given the crippling sanctions we've put in place. and they are going to be forced to choose between draining, remaining valuable dollars or,

or new revenue coming in or default as sanctions pressure on moscow is roundtop. the global economy is also feeding the effect. farmers in the us states of all consort, say their prices for firm life is an energy have gems. and that's taken a whole on business and living costs. lot of our fertilizer come from from that area, whether it's from russia, ukraine, or wherever. lot of the all and gas comes from that area of so you know, if you go the palms today, a gallon gas is $450.00 a gallon a day for you know, so it's really made a difference. we got this, this more between russia and ukraine that really affecting us now. you know, prices as far as inputs that have went up drastically more than double prices for, for our commodity to have gone up. not quite double. conflict is, is bad for the global economy,

where we're sitting right now. we're right close to the mississippi river. we're probably going to have to be able to get our fertilizer if we can pay for it. now you look at places in the us, in land or places and say all over the world, inland in australia, africa, brazil, those places per logical calls a whole lot more. they're not, might not, may not, they may not have the availability that we've got right here. and so it's going to ultimately, it's all linked together and we're going to, you know, we're all going to suffer. meanwhile, the european commission, president, phil, along the line has said the e was working on further sanctions against the kremlin. she'll say that the you had set up a joint investigation team with ukraine. these atrocities cannot and will not be left an answer to the perpetrators of these genius crank crimes must not go unpunished. the european union has set up a joint investigation team with ukraine. its task is to collect evidence and

investigate war crimes and crimes against humanity in ukraine. the e u has unleashed a 5th package of sanctions against russia. they're proposing to include a ban on russian coal oil and even a bound on russian ships entering e u. ports were heard from some residents in germany who have concerns about the rising cost of living. amid this sanctions database yearly mcdaniel bon. i do feel things getting more expensive. i can manage, but i'm having to make compromises. people are arguing over the little that is left on the shelves. it's disorder. i don't know it, but they should now learn how to run their house and not by useless things. so do you know? yeah, is interesting. hold of anthrax, fulton, i have felt price is spike. i think it's about 25 percent higher than it was in covey. times meet is up significantly as well as back loss. if i'm making budget cuts to my shop,

it costs me 60 euros for what i used to get for 40. like everything is more expensive, especially dairy. and immediately my earlier we spoke with the director of the center for european studies at people's university of china. he says, anti russian sanctions are damaging the world economy. and so should be scrapped. well from the sanctions, i think is our game. we understand and more clearly, not the us in general, the west to use this and the consulate to rebuild. let us in that or the west and dominate new colonization architecture. most importantly, there was a stop to some of the covenants probably to 19 can change that now energy and a full price inflation cost for tech is highly fit you in face. so many countries, many regions of sako to frontier, for the price a. so higher price because of the same issues i should,

we should stop this gate and then probably be able to some ability of the water and the b stopped over their global economy. thanks for joining us here in ocoee international as always playing small stories to be found on our website. r t dot com. ah, i bought them was a recall with, with you or is with you. i'm with so we'll hold log

he's professor of history and director of the nuclear studies institute at american university as well as co author with oliver stone of the untold history of the united states. and here in moscow we have maxine sutkowski. he is the director of the center for advanced american studies at moscow state institute of international relations. i gentleman cross sock rules and effect. that means he can jump in any time he want. and i always appreciated, peter, let me go to you 1st. and bethesda, i'm, i'm, i have to watch cable news. i have to read the mainstream media because i have to understand what they're talking about. and i'm demanding in a hardship pay because it's brutal to consume that information here. i mean, you've watch some of it obviously as well. and the con in the context of the conflict is completely absent is it's a, something started. it's a little over a month ago, completely out of the blue. and when i, when i bring up topics like the minsk agreements and things like that, most people have don't have a clue.
