for losing context is largely absent and that's on purpose with borrowing testimony of locals from the devastated city of motor you pull to legit nationalists forces on the neo nazi a self battalion, helping directly targeting active shot at the local population that was a while at the bakery where people went for war tasks, they shot a bunch of people. bodies were lying around right around the well, with some nato countries won't ukrainians to keep fighting. i'm dying from instead of brokering an end to the conflict according to a new report from the washington post china or into a potential ukraine like crisis. if the u. s. a british other streaming allies proceed with their newly announced plans to build nuclear capable hypersonic

weapons, and also ahead it wouldn't be a problem for us to pay in rubies. if the russians want to be paid in roubles, we will pay them in the very base. you remember hungry, defies brussels on girls imports from russia. that's as the european union has reportedly failed to agree on a complete bond that cross its members on buying russian cope with 247 using views. thanks for choosing r t for your update today. my name is unit oneal. a large group of civilians including more than a 100 children, been evacuated from that done yet city of morrow tuple made continued fierce fighting there. a off and other ukrainian nationalist military battalion being accused of inhuman treatment towards locals. the russian defense ministry has

released interviews with the residents of the devastated city. one of them claimed they were shot by its own forces while walking around a children's play area. while others say the neo nazi group has been directly targeting them on using people as human she'd yes ma'am. to see them after shot at the local population. there was a well at the bakery where people went for water. they shot a bunch of people. bodies were lying around right around the wells. a young girl rode to school, was shot in the back, fell down dead. the military took away the cause and deliberately shot, all the cars shot at our house. the house was smashed to pieces, completely burned down. with one says their houses were bummed, they went for water, they was shot as if i'm going to fiddle ration. yes. when you put them to me, really they were in the 100 house, settle back snipers or whatever. what these are,

they been that house and then they reached our house. they shot from there then there and then the children, god. and they sat down. they usually walk around the young and literally she's behind defense like we are hiding. and how do they feel about the fact that people live here and they shoot from there waiting for on this to show how good we are and how fast they are. when we went to the bridge, they fired at us until we head. it was probably a self with put on then because the ukrainian army has not been there for a long time. russian, that military doctor is an important story. this have also see at the life of a mom being hailed as a local hero in the ukrainian city of his you. that's after he. she lit several children. he had been out at a walk when they were reportedly shell by nationalists forces. manuel, i help children hide from raids and bombings. i accompanied them to the shelter.

234 girls still remained and it has just begun. hola! i shielded the girls with my body, but this is how it turned out for myself. so there were bright fleshes, the nationalist fire, and it will, my son was given a bad market school because he speaks russian. every one is intimidated. every one once russia and russian tanks were coming, every one wait and greeted them. moscow has evidence of imminent false flag atrocities inside you crate, which will be blamed on russia knots according to the latest statement from the defense ministry. not the issue with him is, is currently the preparation of such provocations involving civilians has been completed in the cities of can no top entrust dnas in the sumi region as well as in board the younger and katie you, junker, in the key of region, gives we know for sure that the key of regime is preparing provocative materials about the death of civilians allegedly at the hands of the russian army with d. o. considering these developments,

we would like to warn the countries of the so called, civilized west, led by the united states that russia has acquired operational evidence about upcoming terrible crimes of the key of regime in prepared with the pitch in full approval of western representatives. parties really reduce you of a butcher footage was published by ukranian officials as well as media outlets. the pictures were released after the russian army withdrew and ukrainian forces entered the uria. our senior correspond murat garcia, picks up the story. 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 did that salads accuse russia, russia, and its allies, ukraine. every day. the news about horror stories becomes more and more delusional . however, the key of 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, he threw his dear friends dear buchan community march 31st. we'll go down in the history our town. as the day of its liberation from russian forces, ukrainian troops entered 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, boucher had been on the ceaseless ukrainian military shelling. even off the russian forces had left the united states to liberally glossed over the father after the

withdrawal of russian troops. the armed force of ukraine shell to preach a city. many of the corpses, little round butcher, also will white arm bands controversial in the 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 had commented on the hated on bad 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 facts, and even 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 kia claims they shot them dead mentioning is ukraine's collaboration

law enacted recently, and ukrainian 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 hope does the un school for a fair investigation have? it is vital that all efforts are made to ensure that are independent and effective investigations into what happened in future to in 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 disinformation and 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. a things of

a now dead. the era in this new age and motion and interests established guilt and atrocities, sadly have become sickening spectacles, where the judges, he or she who shouts, loudest, forensic experts, edward to man of studied the images from butcher. he believes it's impossible to draw any specific conclusions and even more so to blame russia. when the pictures themselves reyes so many unanswered questions, tim rose new cookoo. there is only one conclusion to be drawn from the pictures that were presented to me was the dates of death of the deceased are different. the discrepancy between the place where the bodies were discovered in the nature of the burnt corpses is confusing to me. the varying degrees of decomposition and under known weather conditions suggests that these people died not on the same day. otherwise, for the degree of post mortem changes in all bodies would not be so different with

china has condemned a joint effort by the u. s. britain and australia to develop nuclear capable hypersonic weapons such to missiles are harder to defend against because of their speed on low altitude flight. beyond the scope of ground based readers, not beijing was responding to a joint statement by the members of the so labeled august military packed. we committed to commence new trilateral cooperation on hypersonic encounter hypersonic and electronic warfare capabilities. as well as to expand information sharing and to deepen cooperation on defense innovation. anyone who does not want to see the ukrainian crisis should refrain from doing things which may lead the other parts of the world into a crisis like this. as the chinese saying goes, if you do not like it, do not impose it against others. the 3 august members also said they're pleased with the progress on building nuclear powered submarines for history live. it's the 1st time the u. s. i shared such advanced technology with another country apart

from the u. k. the trilateral pack dole, so aims to expand other defense and security capabilities. but china has previously described dawkins as quote, on extremely irresponsible a narrow minded group which it considers a potential threat. lesion of firs expert benjamin child believes oak as it is seeking to expand in the pacific. in the same way, nato has expanded across europe. is jesse and other anglo saxon a lion that could endanger the world they are. authors could be views as an asian version of natal. we have all seen the situation in ukraine. the expansion of nato is not a good news to many countries, arguably, not even good to the you. the, you did not want to war in europe, but the nato is led by the us to you. you does not have to say on that is, you know, especially the recent weakening of china,

australia relationship is just 4th in china to plan that had to cooperate with countries like solomon islands, at the doorstep of austria. it, you know, people have to make preemptive models sometimes. and you know, the u. s. could be, could succeed in developing this weapons in a few years. the broader picture is that the office and able australia for supersonic rapids and nuclear submarines and but the texas tech k or 2 for the weapon to fully developed. however, you might be screwing up the party, so to speak, aisha options, and also they have been going pretty fast. we've good relationship and we'll be the center of growth this duckett and. and why do we certainly have, have to have a office? why do we need to initiate defense raise now? some nato countries would prefer ukraine to keep fighting until the last man standing, rather than sign any peace agreement soon. that's according to

a report in the washington post. it's streaming not all countries in the alliance bach piece talks between moscow and keith. meanwhile, nato's chief installation burke has outline plans for the further arming of ukraine, including heavy weaponry. i also expect the ministers when they meet today and tomorrow we'll discuss how we can further support ukraine allies are providing both anti tank and to air or air defense systems, but also different kinds of advanced weapon systems and also both light and heavier weapon systems to ukraine, it is de facto a western policy, and no one should be ashamed of it. this is a war of rushes choosing, and as long as you craniums are willing to make them pay for their decision, we should help them. i hope they will be hard to steal. i support maximum military support to maximum sanctions. russia must lose,

and criminals should standing court. meanwhile, the us defense secretary has stated washington. they said to send yet more weaponry to ukraine as well. namely, a variance of the switchable drone equipped with armor warheads. other western states have been providing care with weapons. well, german officials have reportedly claimed they run out of arms to send with the u. s . states that could be seen blinking, stating as well, there'll be 10 and the tank systems in ukraine for every russian tank. no, all that comes amid continued russia. ukraine. peace talks, geopolitical analyst, and former us marine bryan. burlesque believes nieto wants key of to fight against moscow until the better end. the united states who really put new crayton up to this, over the last 8 years. they put them on a, a deliberate collision course with russia. and i think that they fully intend to have ukraine fight until until the last ukranian, until everything has been spent. every drop of blood that can be spilled is spelled

and i think they make that abundantly clear their support by shipping weapons and money and facilitating the war effort in every possible way. i think they're trying to harm ukrainians and russia. the whole nature of the united states relationship with ukraine funds. the u. s. a top over through the elected ukrainian government in 2014 has been one of self interest in washington. they most certainly do not want the t p, they want, they want russia to pay a price for standing up against us encroachment and nato encroachment. meanwhile, the european union has reportedly failed to agree on its latest 9 5th batch of sanctions against moscow comes as somebody you and members had been actively warning about the potential blow back, including hungry is nearly reelected, prime minister effect or yeah. awesome. i think the most important contributing

factor of the european economic crisis is the sets of sanctions that we've imposed on russia. we are going to have to pay the price for that as well. and we have to prepare to actually pay the price of this. and to manage the european economic prices. well, that's cross line to a europe correspondence. charlotte dubin ski, charlotte report suggest that it's not a united front from the u. n. when it comes to more sanctions on russia. yes, this is always going to be a pretty tough cool for european lead is to get all member states to agree on this 5th round of sanctions. we knew that over the last few weeks as certain countries have been saying that they're not keen on certain ideas. ringback others saying that they pushing even more forward. what we understand though, at this is coming out from the reuters news agency is that the talks of failed on wednesday to meet agreement due to a technicality. but this essentially does pull coldwater on the idea of the you

trying to pan all imports of comb at to the blog ag due to those technical issues. and we understand the talks. we'll have to restart again on thursday to try and find an agreement between all of those countries. i, you know, we thought the discussions which we wrapped up on wednesday, they haven't been so they will continue. now we know that you states had already shut down calls by baltic countries and also by poland. this outright ban on natural gas, so that all russian energy a products would be banned by the you. meanwhile, some you states have said that they are breaking with the official line at from the e u r, which is that they will pay for russian gas in the future in roubles whose number, cuz it wouldn't be a problem for us to pay and roubles if the russians want to be paid in roubles. we will pay them in roubles. well, the commission president, early this week,

it also talked about the idea of the potentially that the you could look to include an outright ban on oil to the victor open in that press conference on wednesday. said that he essentially could be a major, spoke in the wheel by saying that hungry would not be giving into the pressure to support any sanctions that would include russian oil and gas. he said that was a red line for his country. and of course, he's on the bounce back at the moment from just being re elected as prime minister of the country. so he feels void by that to be able to outline what hungary red lines, or at least for him. now the 5th run, the sanctions is been chewed over. we are expecting some names to be added to the list. individuals could see their assets being frozen, all also face i travel bands. we understand that this will include the head of russia's biggest bank at the ella minium oligarch. this is i'm only getting pasco,

as well as the 2 daughters of president putin, from his 1st marriage. other measures that have been muted yet to be officially agreed on, include the potential blocking of russian and bell russian ships from ports in europe, with some exceptions for those carrying humanitarian aid, for example. and, and they will also be, we understand the halting of transactions with 4 key russian banks. and this though, isn't enough to satisfy all you member states and lithuania says that the current package that's being discussed is just not adequate call for banks. a ban on ports and borders with exceptions is not really inadequate. sanctions package to the massacres that are being uncovered. the feeble response is just an invitation for more atrocities. just to let you know as well that e. u has been during the sanctions up in coordination with the white house. and

we've heard in the last few hours from washington that each is announced, a total ban on all investment in russia. a similar announcement is also been coming out of the u. k. 2. now, one of the target lists for both countries are russian banks. this includes a c, but a bank which itself says it's not too concerned by. and that barnett says that the sanctions will not have a significant impact on the banks operations. and i will not affect the service to russians as the system has already been adapted. due to the previous restrictions. meanwhile, president zalinski was talking to the irish parliament on wednesday as saying that he wanted to ratchet up the pressure on western countries and wanted more rigid sanctions to be applied. he said that he couldn't tolerate any indecisiveness. after everything the russian troops had done, but it does seem though, that even if this fixed set of sanctions by the use announced on thursday,

it won't be enough to cut the mustard for zelinski. who really wants the west. it seems to cut all ties with russia. oh, thanks for taking us through all of our to charlotte davinsky. unless pick up and some of the points that charlotte was speaking about because it's always a pleasure to welcome live onto the program. karen can, i saw a former foreign minister of austria welcome to the program card. thank you very much. good evening. we've seen reports, e u countries couldn't agree on a new sanctions package against russia, specifically on coal imports from russia. are you surprised by that? well, not, not that much because we know that coal has gained importance for germany with the energy transition, actually, germany with all its commitments to climate change nevertheless, or the last 10 years ever since america had announced energy transition had been

relying more and more on coal fired electricity, the power stations then on nuclear and germany is actually in dire need of coal because it needs some back up whenever the wind doesn't blow, the sun doesn't shine. it needs coal fired power stations. otherwise it's, there is a risk of power cut. as of a germany it's, it's weitel, it's not just the metal political, joyce, or, or, and that will be joining the drum beats. that is there. but it's really something of why tell necessity, president biden and self admitted sanctions don't work given how much damage they're appearing. to cause for european citizens and higher heating bills, more expensive diesel, eccentric, do you think decision makers in europe are right now? acting rationally? you see over the last years i have often asked my question,

are we already be young rationality long and all that caught my eye. that drama which we are now in started out. we have seen an irrational environment in which what i called was a lot of speechlessness. there wasn't any more any, any real desire from, from many with elements. and you have seen that into diplomatic activism in general, tend to reach out to, to sincerely talk to each other too, since you move on on, on essential topics. so rational the original. unfortunately, i may subscribe to, which is a chest though we have entered on child erosion allergy. that's the thing. are they going to risk years of recession just to punish the russian government for its actions in ukraine? unwilling it citizens will be accept that? yeah, well the recession when, when, when, when you want to define it in my panic,

mcdermott mean to gorgeous of economic decline. now even independently of the global recession, for instance, china managed to, to, to move out of that. we had the panoramic with tremendous pain for society for, for, for the industry. as what is happening now is actually an excellent ration of a number of factors that have been with us or the last 2 years. in particular, 2021. we saw a tremendous life and inflation and rise and commodity prices plus we saw unemployment. so the, the recession and, and a very explosive mix up sessions, namely inflation plus unemployment. this is something

very peculiar because usually you have inflation in heated stage of economy. and then you're trying to calm down the economy by writing interest rates, not right now. all central bags, in particular, the federal stuff with the us, but seamless sep, which i will say it's a little bit out of touch with reality when it comes to who did the harsh impact of that information right now. out somehow obliged to raise the interest rates. i remember a form of friends sherman, so of finer the young we see he was french fine, minnesota disease. so i think about 10 years ago, and that was against the backdrop of dan economic crisis, which we had 20092010. and he's a great dad, a rise of one percent interest rate. what cost risks of not be able to pay back. now in the past 10 years,

a lot more that have been accumulated with the public h for dependent 8 to the respective national economy. right. so i think recession has already been with us. now that's a tremendous expiration and, and that, sorry, i forgot to answer your question. no, no i, well i completely got the point. i completely get the point. i just wanted to also bring in a car and a by the newly reelected hungarian leader, victor or bob. he's the 1st you leader to say he's ready to pay for gas and rubles, will the block look the punish him for that or will it lead to possibly more following his lead? let a big to all been right now. the only that you just told this other very solid majority. i mean, who am i had think i had to the government right now, dispose of an absolute majority in every country you have some sort of pollution

government. so he says he has a lot of domestic power out, and he is that long as standing member of the conscious, i mean, he dispose of is that correct? now more than me and you know, the other, you know, the mechanism. so he's definitely in a, in an advantage position. and i could imagine that that will be more of what conflict between the commission and the although we have seen the lot for 5 years already with the different rule of law. article 7 measures against time breach, hungary not being considered as true european, even throw the 100 page very high prices for, for all, for their 5 for liberty. just let us remember, like in 56 in the revolution. hungary, which was that crushed by,

by this invasion, been applied to do to fix up. it's interesting that padre, which has such a particular history older with regard to the soviet union, is in this position right now. and this from an analytical point of sure will remain very interesting from a political voice, a few it could turn into a very harsh test though, for the cohesion of your opinion. yes. yeah, very interesting. europe just a pick up and something you said earlier, carne europe is basically cutting itself off from the resources. it depends on will it be able to find alternative suppliers at any kind of similar prices? it's not only about the price, it's really about the volume and the and, and having it at the, at your disposition as soon as possible. because i've been moving out of

the phasing out of freshman supplies. people prefer to speak now about will take at least 5 years. everybody's key about that. so when the, when you're peen officials travel now to come to the united arab emirates and come back with political announcements and, and breaking news of we've got an energy partnership. this is nice, but it's really just a political announcement because the contracts are not there and such countries need deleted preparation. the prices are not get fixed and above all the infrastructure is not there. we might do have 2 levels to transport. the gas from kept up or from, from the united states in the amount in the volume that would be needed to replace russian gas and more so it's not only about the price, the price has always been a topic. when discussing,

shall we take in those american al and you know it's 40 percent more expensive than russian. that was a debate. i would say more of the recent past i were different. it's, it's, it's a, well, it's a very cumbersome situation that could escalate into something more important. i mean, the gentlemen of economy has stated, we're ready to get who are it's going to be. it's gonna be very interesting, fascinating, on a political level, but for people caught in the middle of it a tough time as well. car and thank you so much for coming on and what was top notch analysis from current? can i so former australian foreign minister, thank you very much. have a good evening. you too packed to the rafters, going underground ahead with option including a timely one on. busy with britain's former energy minister, chris soon stay with us for that.
