[000:00:00;00] ah ah, the russian defense minister says moscow is almost taken the don't bust if you pull unfold remaining as of fighters to lay down their arms. it claims that running low on supplies. also ahead of them set up a foreign position here. a variety of caliber empty shell casings, but also i was in many places that we visited empty syringes. these crew has been reporting from the front line. the motor you pull throughout the fist fighting russian defense systems intercepts an apparent ukrainian strike on the border city of b. l. a good. last after a village in the russian region of brianna was allegedly shelled by kiev causing

several casualties. we were in the house, we looked out of the window, there was dust everywhere and then it started shaking. i went to another house, there was black smoke there. that was the one that was burned down and where a woman was injured. and vladimir putin, slums, european countries for delaying on energy payments at odds. this the european people who were the ones hardest paid by anti russians. sentiments of their leaders with a committee alive from our headquarters here in moscow. you're watching the weekly here on oxy international. my name is peter scott and we start this out with the latest from ukraine. the russian defense ministry has said it is almost taken the port city of mount or your poll, which has almost been completely destroyed by the fighting. it said the remaining forces of the battalion are surrounded in the besieged city steel fire tree, and given them the chance to surrender on sunday,

his ortiz roma casa with more. hi lindsey, this says he has been devastated by the fighting. at the moment, sir. ah, most of the fighting is taking place at the us all fuss thought metallurgy, a plan. that's where the us all battalion and other ukraine forces have been the holds up. well, we've heard statements from the russian defense minister earlier, where the cold on the remaining forces that have been hold up in the besieged, see the city of farmer who pull to a lay down their arms and surrender to the dentist, peoples republicans, a russian of forces not they have all been guaranteed as safety if they accept this proposal and ah, come out with the white flags arranged now moscow terms, moscow's service of surrender. ah, it had been a broad castle,

continue to be broadcasted in the 30 minutes interval interval for throughout the day on notifying the military that is still holds up at the a sofa style missile or to plan said to come out and surrender. here's, here's the statement. the content of radio interceptions indicates that the resisting militants are in a hopeless situation. practically without food and water, they persistently demand permission from the official authorities of kiev to lay down their arms in surrender. at the same time, representatives of the ukrainian authorities categorically forbid doing this and threatened with subsequent executions under the terms of war time. now of course, our fighting continues along the rest of the front line here in the dhs and netscape people's republic, including here in dennis can other areas as well. well, a russian defense mint is free is also holding on the rest of the ukrainian forces to follow suit and lay down their arms. we appeal to all servicemen of the armed

forces of ukraine and foreign mercenaries. with the cynical attitude of the key of authorities, such an unenviable fate awaits all of you. given this, do not test your fate. following the example of the mary you, paul, tragedy. but take the only right decision. stop hostilities and lay down your arms . now, wherever your curators force you to fight for the ideas of naziism. now back to the says he offer murray, you pull all that place, saw some of the most, the fierce fighting with winning the combined forces of, than as people's republic and russia against the ukraine. sen nationalists, the battalions and the regular army. now ukraine's president's vladimir, as lensky made a briar at santa trying to show that his country's forces were still in control of the city. the destruction of all our guys in mary u. paul. what they are doing now can put an end to any format of negotiations. i

think it is their big mistake to say that they really want to end the war. so 4000 self civilians have been killed in the city of murray all alone. now russia and his people's republics, officials claimed that these, the civilians have been used as a human shields by the nationalist as all battalions in the fighting well for the last week or so. they have been, holds up the style, metallurgy plants and other areas at the moment. so russian defense ministry claims that the entire city has been well freed, according to them from ukraine's forces and national battalions. however, some elements are still holds up within that plant. residents of murder, you pull are being cute, not to receive much needed humanitarian aid. this comes up to fighting is reports have stopped in residential areas and he's now confined to the industrial outskirts

of the city. juggles guy did it already on my door below the entire urban area of marian, paula's complete declared of the militants of the neo nazi as old battalion foreign mercenaries and ukrainian troops or the remnants of the crating group, a county completely blocked on the territory of the avar style metals plants there any chance to save their lives as to voluntarily lay down their arms and surrender . during the liberation of marian pole, 1464 ukrainian salesman have already surrendered. the number of those surrendering is increasing daily, including those who escape from the territory of avar style. to day the losses of ukraine amount to 23367 people. the daughter of regarding the announcement by the russian ministry of defense would mug a milestone baptist, the beginning of the end of the battle of mary, you will because it was the urban combat raging throughout the city. that was the worst of it. the most brutal part of the fighting residential building to residential building. busy where,

where tens of thousands of civilians were held hostage by nationalists a who shot as anyone trying to escape from the city people would find to their apartments to basement. as fighting above the moraine assa, i'd have ferocious in a terrified pace. nevertheless, with the announcement that the city proper had been the liberated from nationalists and now that the fighting will be concentrated on the as of steel. and the ard works industrial complex that will be of relief to civilians who are no longer at threat. because the compound wall, it is vast, it is devoid of civilian infrastructure, residential buildings. nevertheless, it will still be a difficult fight. there are miles and miles of titles and the underground floors areas spanning the entirety of the complex which will have to be fought over again

. earlier i re, as on the pizza flies in, in the city and how nationalists used people up a peoples apartments as far as stations. every crossing on every street in every yard. the scars of battle are apparent. and today we followed in the footsteps of ukrainian nationalists as they turned people's homes into firing ranges. as ukrainian troops retreated deeper into the city, they would then we single residential building. they would break down the doors into apartments to set up new firing positions. again, during fire on these apartments on themselves, leaving people with no way to leave. tens of thousands of civilians now live in the basements of their apartment blocks. it's warm of a one,

but also much safer that upstairs. he is another apartment in a residential building that ukrainian nationalist set up a foreign posted all over the place all over the place, bullets empty shell casings, but also here a primed grenade launcher. it has been prime to the, as i said, it may have malfunction. but it would be very dangerous to touch it or disturb, but in any case, this is the job for suppose the high you are the better the view, the father you can see and shoot even if you have to climb over the heads of civilians. really, what is vicki there were nationalist hiding up in the top floors over their lease snipers to one of them shot at people walking down the street when he just kept shooting but missed a young woman walking by was in absolute shock. she hid in a local shop for osman,

with cough we sat in the closet and prayed to god because any one of those shells could have hit our apartment when we didn't understand who they were shooting at. there was no one here. no soldiers, no separatist of no russian troops. they just kept shelling here from the factory. you go everywhere, you can find magazines unexploded shelves, bullets, even grenades that failed to designate. and occasionally, the vile syringes and beals, that fueled nationalist regiments. here is another apartment broken into by ukrainian nationalists that have a great view out of this window and they set up a set up a foreign position here, a variety of caliber z, empty shell casings. but also as in many places that we visited empty syringes, a path to the end of a vile here. no idea what this was, but in many of these places, apartments, the where they were at station where they fought from, where they have there been drugs that were seized by the,

than yet police that have cleaned up the place off to them to an extent. but we know for a fact that euclidean nation so heavily dependent on amphetamines, this is something we had seen in syria in the rock, whether it was isis fight as will syrian rebels. they, they would take these unsettled means and they could keep going without sleep without rest, without food or drink o water. for days and days renew, we found drugs during the inspections captured ukrainian soldiers admitted that they use drugs to make it easier for them to fight the population of mary upa was always seen as pro russian by ukrainian nationalists. for years they tried to beat and bully loyalty into the locals isn't deliver it to of my friends were having a drink. and nationalists walked up to them and told them to say, glory to ukraine. one of them refused, so they broke his fingers. this isn't

a story from the internet. this happened to my friend from the used to that. but that went both ways. the civilians here never understood the fanatical habits so as of and other nationalist battalions. i if i'm simply we're all tattooed and they had these rituals. they had these torchlight marches over there. they also had rights. they even put up a fence so people wouldn't see what they were up to. the end result was utter disregard for civilians. among nationalists, they never saw them as equals as fellow countrymen and women, but as fodder. human shields expendable bodies for the glory of ukraine, or ad gazda of r t for mary jo pal, russian air defense systems were triggered on saturday in the border city of bel good. in response to the emery claims was a ukrainian strike. locals reported to explosions. it could be heard in the city center,

and witnesses also posted video footage of what appears to be russian intercept to rockets in response to ukraine's alleged actions on russian territory. a military facility on the outskirts of care was targeted. the plans was said to produce anti aircraft and anti ship miss our systems. and the russian defense minister is that it would directly respond to any attack on russian territory room. if you would have to give you the wrong, the number and scale of missile strikes on targets in kiev will increase in response to the key of nationalist regime. committing any terrorist attacks or sabotage on russian territory wasn't a former marine corps intelligence officer. scott ritter shared his thoughts with us. i think some people forget that this is not a war. this is a special military operation. and what that means is that russia is not bringing to bear the totality of its power. that this is a very measured campaign by the russian military to carry out

a limited set of objectives. crane, on the other hand, appears to be engaged in total war against russia. and i think they have been lulled into a false sense of complacency because they have interpreted rushes, special military operation as a total war against themselves. i think russia may have to educate ukraine as to what more can be done against it, to help deter, you know, ukraine carrying out attacks on russian soil. there is, there are consequences for your actions. and if you train wants to expand the war, i think they shouldn't be surprised when russia escalates it's response. well, that's escalated response from moscow fall as early as strikes on the brians in belgrade regions of western russia. the countries accused ukraine's on forces be behind them,

but you couldn't. military is not yet commented on those incidents. the russian investigative committee claims the strike, so carried out 5 to combat shop. as equipped with heavy weapons, leaving at least 8 people, including pregnant women and child injured the michelin. on wednesday, the russian defense minister said the moscow could saga king of decision making sentence. if ukraine keeps attacking bush and soil, we heard from some locals, indians. in it's in the local it's we've been through a lot, cried alon, we everything has been exploding there. the neighbors have a bomb craters. the house was also hit the beams broke in the barn. when there was an explosion, i was lying on the couch. glass rained down, i fell to the floor, flowerpots that were on the window sill fell on me. yeah, to me, but i was in the house. then i went out on the porch. it's good that i didn't reach the gate, otherwise i would have been lying here. when i came out, i saw a blast wave that was like this way. will it do me? we were in the house. we looked out of the window. there was dust everywhere and then it started shaking through. so i went to another house,

there was black smoke there, that was the one that was burned down and where a woman was injured. the wife of ukraine's opposition leader has asked the british prime minister boyce johnson to detain british mercenaries for a husband. be sure to be a bit choke, was arrested this week by ukrainian security services from 2018 until the rest mitigate. ciocca was the chairman of a pro russian party, if you played a key role in negotiations between ukraine, russia and the people's republic of the news can look guns and his wife says the arrest was completely unlawful. damage to the prime minister johnson. i'm not sure of either of the religion petition relevant or of your grand and the child. i appeal to your for help in exchange and my husband who was a then but keith, a purchase for political reasons and false accusations for

citizens of your country, either as can and some peanut. how they, family and friends are the items and showing how mean based on victor. malaria rushes said it detained several military personnel from nato countries, including 2 british citizens. aden oslyn was captured after joining the ukrainian army. and please, by monday the following statement could have been given under duress from the she sent you, not the phone you will fail for me. i really try to be more than minimal regionally . i think you're correct from day one. when we went to many people, i always said like, we need to leave because because as i said before, dawn thus right is recognized as independent and landscape as well. and if, if ukraine really wanted to avoid this conflict, they could have easily just said ok. we will leave and we will recognize

independence. fortune beginning ukraine was good side would and then eventually pay see they don't make the right decisions. that would end war good. a good example was how to media everytime, new part of media they, they didn't want to negotiate with steps that could help. and the war like peacefully, it was like 1st time seeing reality may looted from like supermarkets, like civilians need food like survive after like in circles. and so they would take like food from the supermarkets,

they would stop civilians from going out to get water like making a supermarket that was being looted. they would stop civilians from taking like water. so stuff like that which made themselves what taken champagne was also captured this week as a prisoner of war murder. you pull along with hundreds of ukrainian soldiers given to cooper and we were in the factory or in earlier i was a tuesday morning. it was decided to remove from phone from the areas the factory, but we didn't know exactly where about 4 in the morning. we left the factory in vehicles, commands this coming to shortly after boys johnson's flying visit to kiev, where he pledged to provide more military aid to president landscape. while johnson has ruled out the possibility of british troops officially fighting in ukraine against the russian army. meanwhile, the russian foreign ministry spokesperson said the p. m. was fully aware the

situation surrounding the u. k. nationals. forrest johnson recently visited key, as is certainly aware of the situation surrounding the u. k. nationals, he will respond soon, and les tress will tell you what the british were doing there. but we'll soon we'll shoot up by and lodge soleski has a free hand today to finally strangle political freedoms in ukraine. we're so lensky could not have an honest and democratic dialogue with fit to mit for chak in a fair political competition. in fact, we see a typical dictates are in the center of europe, and unfortunately today, both forest johnson and mac cron and other european leaders turn a blind eye to this. they see it like this. if so, lensky does something bad to russia than this is our guy. but for such reasons, they will turn a blind eye to political trials to the arrests of prominent opposition. political leaders, such as victim at the ciocca and to the activities of nationalists and radicals. a lot of whom are inside the army. that of the european commission is said that he is

considered a 6th round of russian sanctions, which will potentially target the energy say to include in the oil industry. that soft vladimir putin earlier slammed some nations for delaying payments. for russian energy losses were a flood or a failure in the payment of export supplies of russian energy resources. banks from unfriendly countries delay the transfer payments. i remind you the task is already been set to transfer payments for energy resources to the national currency. gradually, moving away from the dollar and the euro. in general, we intend to radically increase the share of payments in the national currency in the foreign trade system. in the, almost a month ago, the russian presidents ordered the states companies to switch to payments in roubles only for russian energy. that decision was met with a huge backlash from the west, which accused moscow of breaking contracts and circumventing sanctions. the still no agreement among member states on banning russian oil and gas. vladimir putin

also reiterated that an embargo on russian energy sources would primarily hit european citizens up with attempts by western countries to replace our energy resources with alternative supplies will inevitably affect the entire global economy. supplies from other countries, primarily from the united states, will cost consumers many times more would affect the standard of living of people and the competitiveness of the european economy. despite these obvious things for every one european countries are constantly talking about refusing russian supplies, which further destabilizes the market and inflates prices themselves, primarily for their citizens. well, meanwhile, the head of germany's federal network agency, that's the one that's overseas. the countries energy needs recently claim that if russian gas supplies are caused by berlin, germany reserves would only last until autumn, former austrian foreign minister current can i sole told archie, it would be hard for germany to deal with the consequences of cutting energy

imports from russia the impacts will be much larger than just the old metaphor that people might freeze or not. 3 should bear in mind that it's all, all about the commodity, natural gas for electricity generation. german government is taking also administrative, legal steps in preparing a gas supply emergency situation is even talk about nationalized ation, conference kayesha russian property. we can't imagine i would say the ultimate outcome. you can see how pressure is filled up against germany within the european union. it's not only from us, from your brain or by public opinion, it's really from within the european union. there really is right now is how will it be accomplished?

then germany resigned to the fact that it has to agree on that and post oil and gas embargo by the european union. it's not about a very long time. i would say everybody was stuff and everybody's already suffering now with the india, which is received a shipment of the russian s $400.00 defense missile system. major corporation between the 2 states is continuing enough despite pressure from the u. s. which is urging the country to distance itself from moscow. we obviously would prefer that india move away from their long term history of 9 alignment, g 77, partnership with russia. now india has repeatedly said it as a neutral positions was the conflict between russia and ukraine and does maintain that stands despite the u. s. pressure, russia, and india is close relationship to stem from the cold war. and are these don't call to discuss with, i guess the way the india is striking, a delicate balancing act between washington and moscow. united states has gone

through this period of union naturalism, especially after the collapse of the soviet union. and they did exactly what they wanted in various parts of the go. but then this off on reverse after the last including it all. and then, you know, gone just on and you did actual moment is all, but now is with all the sanctions that goes on russia. most of the world is not in favor of this. and i would say that, in fact, the sanctions are causing a lot of misery with potentially cause a lot of the all over the globe because of distractions and means will be found to go around the sanction that has happened in the donald and russia. what we may buy from russia in a while in one month, you're a biased in one afternoon from russia. so therefore, to dallas, that your financing wall is ridiculous. do you think that these western sanctions

on russia are ultimately going to result in a new world order? no, i think that they're going to destroy the basic economy. oh, well, europe, since europe is still attached to it in the energy sector and in the agriculture sector to import from russia, it's going to create a disaster in europe with political consequences. it's not going to change. it's not going to be a new order. it's going to be something even worse than that. washington wants india to turn it back on russia. why do you think it's so important to the u. s. united states? and i'll decide what should be want to see a long standing audition with shot meet certain specific needs. there's no reason why we should sacrifice our specific needs in our relationship with russia, who you estimate us doesn't offer guidance from us. this from us as to what they should do,

they do what they want in terms of what the national interest are. and we will do what we need to do in terms of our national interest. we don't see our relationship with united states as much as a 0 sum game and, and united states is no one to tell us what should be our foreign policy of how we should pursue our national interest. and united states should be little more understanding and accommodating and not play this game that either you are with us or against us. this is a cold war thinking. this is not modern. think i made western calls for de escalation of the u. s. ukrainian crisis. they're also, they also seem to want to do anything to harm russia, no matter what the cost. what does the us really want to achieve? basically, what do, what do you want to do is not to have any peace discussions and try to do as much damage to russia and to europe at the same time. but what do united states doesn't

see that we're being humanity is being driven towards a nuclear holocaust. if we continue like that, the issue now that should concern the west and russia is to start serious peace negotiations between nato and moscow and between the united states and moscow. and finally, over to sweden, where riots, riots, ropes, in the city of, or a bro on friday as council protested, slashed with police ahead of a planned rights wing extremist demonstration. the process turn violence with objects thrown and police vehicles. that's a blaze account. the demo happened in response to far rights. raleigh weights was planned. the muslim holy book, the koran would be burned. the for rights event feature on the muslim danish

politician rasmus apollo done on his part the hotline was prevented from going ahead. but those are the new stories, the shape this we cannot seem to national for me on any of them to head over to our web site r t dot com. my name is peter scott from the back again in 30 minutes. i a

with a wealth engine oil, the parts, the american approach did it well, it could be reduced to one bumper sticker, it. well, it could be this perception is reality. going to in the early ninety's by the come, the republican strategist lee asked what i mean, i'm gonna use a bull codes and did it tricks, but nonetheless, through very effective in securing the presidential victories of ronald reagan and george h. w. bush. what are your thoughts on how big is the gap between american perception and what will reality? well to discuss that i'm now and join, but lou cian anchored with china state run, see on channel. she has a great pleasure for me to talk to you on such a big out of your work. thank you very much for making the time for me. thank you for the invitation. yes, i come from c t n. we call ourselves the international television of china. now i
