no big a a with moscow calls on you have to order its troops in a besieged field factory and are you able to release any civilians and surrender? scores of civilians have managed to flee from the vicinity through the same fruits set up by russia. if i'd like to find out if we were living in the basement for 2 months, we are very happy to see you guys. stay alive and now you are evacuating right. my sister and 3 nephews. a fierce fighting continues in the as a stall, industrial area, and mario bold as

a safe evacuation route for ukrainian troops to surrender has gone unused. lucky reports from the front line of the war, twin city. as you can hear, the fussing is still ferocious. but from what we understand, nash with troops are running out of food out of the votes, as well as morale is set to be very little with the west concern for ukraine and ukrainians. he's opportunistic, unselfish ukrainians, and needed today only as cannon fodder in a proxy war with russia until the last ukrainian it tends to exchange at the un security council. as the russian ambassador says, that while western powers claim to be peacekeepers, they are really fueling the conflict with 1st supplies of weapons with broadcasting live direct from our studios and moscow. this is our to international

thomas certainly glad to have with us. right now. moscow calls them key of to order troops inside variables as of stalled steel plan to release any civilian hostages and surrender. moscow says civilians may be used as human shields inside the factory to prevent russian forces from advancing after no one passed through a humanitarian corridor on tuesday, set up specifically to evacuate the facility. another limited seas fire is to take place on wednesday afternoon, but nearby safe roots have been used. we heard from some of the people who managed to flee, missing it, but like i said, we were living in the basement for 2 months. we are very happy to see you guys stay alive from did. if i knew that everything was bombed and burned down, we lived in a basement. no water, no food. we just grabbed what we could do. do it good deal on your would you like a pregnant girl was killed? she left 2 kids and this girl was wounded. we've been treating her since the 7th of april, and i think she never moved like this before doing it. and now you are evacuating

bright history. my sister and 3 nephews ah, earlier on tuesday, russian led forces inside mario ball launched a new assault against neo nazi as of troops. most of the remaining ukrainian forces in marble are trying to hold their ground inside the vast territory of the odds of steel factory. their exact number is unknown, but they are reportedly in short supply of ammunition and food precious. as the safe evacuation route from the area to euclidean troops to surrender has gone unused. russian lead forces say they have been making very cautious moves towards enemy position. was brought as if still has a high density of building so so the distance at which we have fighting is 100 to 200 meters. we're moving slowly but confidently. all units have identified enemy firing points and directed a strike. then you can see the explosion, right here are g correspondent,

what our gas deal was near the frontline at the as of stall factory, the last stronghold of ukrainian nationalist and maria here on the periphery of the as of steel and nod was industrial compound. as you can hear, battle rages small arms, mostly as well as with armored personnel carriers, but few residential neighborhoods of all that stands between total encirclement ukrainian nationalists inside the other industrial compound. as you can hear, the fussing is still ferocious, but from what we understand nationalism, ukrainian troops are running as a foods out of water, as well as morale is said to be very low their because obviously they're running short and supplies. but also because they invariably a understand many of the this is the end of their commanders and those and here

here which is ordering them not to surrender that they're throwing their lives away . nevertheless, there are a cool radical fanatics among the nationalists in the algo steel compound. and they did any sort of surrender, any sort of negotiation. they want to keep fighting, as they hope, until a diplomatic perhaps solution is reached by which they will be given a car door as of mary and i did the ukraine, proper territories, told by the caribbean military, even though that is that these point incredibly unlikely military expert, alexander st, upon of says cubes. leadership is trying to prolong the military conflict despite the civilian casualties in such a what i see. so suddenly the initiative of the russian side is aimed at saving

human lives. and this noble gesture to was walker, minerals deserves respect. but we are well aware that those mil to personnel who don't want to surrender are the subject of all this given to them. the main goal of kia is to prolong the conflict as much as possible, despite the casualties and one of the civilian population. the decision of the issue of the liberation of mario paul has already been made by russia, and we can only hope for the prudence of a ukrainian military leadership, which must 1st of all take care of the lives of their military forces. while the situation invariable remains tense, the un security council held a meeting on tuesday to discuss the conflict in ukraine. russia's ambassador to the un commented on how he sees the west approaching the situation. sabatino shows up on luckily the west concern for ukraine and ukrainians is opportunistic, unselfish. ukrainians are needed today only as cannon fodder in a proxy war with russia until the last ukrainian jane member body that leads the united nations convened a meeting, the topic of which was refugee created by the conflict in ukraine. now the united

states and its allies unloaded a lot of allegations and accusations against russia. but as we just saw in the clip there, re poll janski's talking to the floor and defend it was russia and called out and get bogged. a lot of the accusations that were being made now, he went on to say that russia has actually taken in refugees starting since 2014, when the united states and its allies toppled the cranium government point 5000000 people have fled to the russian federation as a result of us actions in ukraine, and he went on to talk about the political repression and ukraine and our attempts to portray ukraine as being some kind of democracy. being threatened is just simply not accurate. you know, political opposition forces are being rounded up and repressed them. have been repressed and for the past 8 years, they've been waging a war against their own population in the eastern regions. and don bought,

we called out the u. s. military industrial complex. he talked about how a lot of the military hardware united states is given to ukraine, doesn't even work. some of these vehicles that have not been functional, they've just kind of been jumping them on ukraine and how the claims that it cares about you brownian lives. but at the same time, seems to be trying to prolong the con, road granting lives away in an effort to hurt russia. he also talks about the impact on the european countries that are aligned with the united states and how they have been badly impacted by the sanctioned by the conflict. and based on that, he argued that calls for these fire coming from united states and their allies seem insincere. and there's a legit concern. this is simply an opportunity to, to let the extremist nazi forces regroup and continue their efforts not just against russia, but against ukrainian civilian. now, later after we heard the countries making up un security council, we did hear the ukrainian representative get up. and he made

a lot of accusations against russia. one being that rush. it's not allowing civilian to leave a factory and basically is enabling and causing civilians to be killed. this is what the granting representatives that when addressing the security council, the situation in mario remains the most critical, thousands of civilians are still in the city. hundreds of them, including children, have taken shelter in the old style plant. they need immediate safety occupation, and the rational forces are well aware of these. instead, the russians deny all requests from the ukrainian side world leaders and the u. s. u n. hi, officials for iraq creation car doors for civilians. now, prior to these accusations from the cranium representative dmitri pollyanna, k representing the russian federation spoke and explained very clearly that the presence of these civilians in the factory was hidden. despite repeated requests on

the part of russia to make sure that no civilians were in harm's way. and now russia has been calling on to influence the fighting forces there and allow the civilians to leave the factory. so essentially, ukrainians are being used as human. she'll buy, you know, by these extreme, its anti russian forces that have been armed and trained by the states and ukraine . now, it's also important to note that at the security council meeting, shine, it's up to the floor and talked about the dangers facing the global economy. and how the targeting and manipulation of currency and as a result of us sanctions is having a very long term and serious effect, not just in russia, but in other places. now the world economy is being badly affected by these moves by the united states. and the escalation of the conflict. so i was quite a meeting at the un security council, a lot of legation against russia. russia didn't have an opportunity as a permanent member of the un security council,

a body that was formed among the countries that defeated fascism in the 2nd world war. they had an opportunity to give their side of the story and they presented facts that are being ignored in western media and ignored in the tirade of western leaders. so i was quite a meeting at security council, not a lot of unity among the countries there. clearly some very different understanding of the dance on the ground in ukraine as a lot of people are becoming refugees. and a lot of people are clearly suffering the italian american journalist who has been covering the conflict from inside ukraine and has repeatedly criticize the ukranian government and its armed forces has repeatedly reportedly gone missing in the city of hanukkah. no fellow reporters fear for his wife, saying gonzalo lira has been out of contact since last friday. extremely troubling that gonzalo lira a u. s. citizen in ukraine has disappeared from social media. he was scheduled to interview me last friday about the lensky s. b u kidnapping. and assassinating

dissidence, and now i fear he has become its latest victim. if gonzalo lira has indeed been disappeared by ukraine's s b u, he joins a long list of dissidence. leftists, human rights activists and local officials kidnapped, tortured and even assassinated by zelinski death squads and with key as open support. meanwhile, one of the ukraine's nationalist leaders has posted a series of tweets on his private account, mockingly claiming the journalist might have been abducted and killed by quote, some guy which the call sign. she les, in other posts, he shows a photo of neo nazi fighters again hinting they might be the ones behind the reporters disappearance and even applauding the prospects of the journalist being dead. but the radical you couldn't, commander, has not provided any evidence. so the information cannot be immediately verified. casala lira is 54 years old and has been living in ukraine for the past few years. he was in key of when the conflict erupted in february and then traveled to the 2nd

largest city hark of to cover the fighting there. at the end of march it, we didn't what he called the truth about zalinski regime, adding he felt he might disappear as did other critics of care of some of whom were later found dead years. one of gonzalo ears, latest interviews before he went missing. a very real says the armed forces were makes up, but they also integrated these neo nazi hyper nationalist elements. not just him to the armed forces by the way, also into the government itself. and these new nazi extreme nationalist, extreme ukrainian elements are poisoned the well and the ukrainian state. you can probably anti russian choice. foreign ministry has confirmed to r t that they have been informed about the loss of contact with the journalist. and they're now in touch with relevant entities to get an update on his status and location. we've also requested comment from the us state department, as gonzalez holds dual citizenship. so far the u. s. has provided no response,

but we will keep you posted here cuz kimberly a journalist and former european parliament member says washington's silence is because the west is deliberately ignoring some matters in ukraine if they would reflect poorly on kemp's leadership. when i know it wasn't assembly that we don't see any reaction from either washington or the major west or mediate. because that would mean they accept their dealing with a regime that is train every way to restrict the right to free access to information, even resorting to lengthy prison sentences and abductions. thus, in view of a number of the crimes that we are witnessing, we can say this regime was inspired by new nazi ideas. any war is dangerous, and any worker spawn and nose deck, but we cannot allow journalists to be turned into targets, abducted, or even killed, where developed society that protects the right to free access to information. where was seen ukraine is that only journalists who repeat the official lie like a mantra are locked to work. this is not military journalism,

but military propaganda. it should be condemned. large scale support, but no military intervention. that is how germany's chancellor sees that nato involvement in the war and ukraine. ukraine has long been seeking membership in the western military alliance. but while the block has said it isn't ready to let in ukraine, it still has refused to give moscow any assurances. but it won't expand towards brushes, borders not his racial blevins excites. i saw the visual from them by an administration as now and meaning that the u. s. refuse to even discuss russia's concerns about ukraine, joining nato ahead of moscow's military operation in the country. despite the americans knowing they could have helped to de escalate 10 ships from pack that a bit, you guys refused. the folks refused to talk about nato expansion with russia just there was not on the table in terms of negotiations. it wasn't. we may clear that it's russia doesn't have

a veto over nato enlargement. when moscow offered security agreements about the u. s. and nato back in the summer, one of the most important points is the guarantee that you would never join nato, that the man hasn't changed with russia. continuing to call for ukraine to being neutral state with no military allegiance. the response from the u. s. and its allies was you continue to escalate sanctions by claiming that any attempt to restrict nato expansion was off the table. even ukrainian president zalinski admitted that the alliance privately told him that nato membership for his country was not on the table. ukraine is not a member of nato. we understand that we have heard for years that the doors were open, but we also heard that we could not join. it's a truce and it must be recognized. yet nino has still refused to give any formal guarantee and it knew just how big of an issue this was for moscow. mischika were simply and directly raised the issue that there should be no further eastward

expansion of nato, which the ball is in their court. they must reply to us later than yet. we oh, good to go to shoot you. but we categorically do not accept the appearance of nato on our borders. it's a red line. they know it. so after years of warnings, ignored by nato, russia finally launched its military campaign. and one month later, ukraine decided that it would finally be ready to discuss the promise of becoming a neutral state security guarantees and neutrality, non nuclear status of all state. we are ready to go for it. this is the most important point, but the us still can't seem to let it go claiming, instead that it still needs to teach russia a lesson on the importance of a rule based order. the key point is that there are principles that are at stake here that have universal pick up like ability everywhere, whether in europe, whether in the in the pacific, anywhere in between. and those are the core principles that president putin have

sought to violate and flout. and that are ukrainian partners, backed by the international community, have sought to dissent the principle that each and every country has a sovereign right to determine its own foreign policy. so as the us is western allies and even ukraine now admit that nato membership wasn't actually on the table, they're essentially also admitting that their refusal to be honest with moscow about the threat they posed to russia, prevented any kind of diplomatic solution before it was too late in washington, rachel blevins, r t. geopolitical analyst, brian at berlin. dick suspects the u. s. ultimately wanted to create a conflict with russia. it absolutely is a legitimate national security concern for brush of the entire existence of nato. busy from the very beginning was predicated on containing the soviet union. now that the soviet union is a part of history, nato's continued existence is now

a very obviously fam patch containing the russian federation. its whole purpose is to antagonize in circling, contain the russian federation. the entire point all along the united states is relationship with ukraine was to create a significant national security threat on russia as border i think ultimately they, they wanted to create a conflict with russia. i don't think they thought it would be on these terms or specifically. during this timeline. all indications appeared that they very much wanted more with approx. he was proxy war with russia. i just think they might have preferred it to be on slightly different terms, and perhaps a little bit more down the road. berlin does not accept any conspiracy theories from q. that's how former vice chancellor of germany sigma gabriella has reacted to

ukraine's refusal to allow germany's current president frank walter sty meyer to visit the wardrobe country. a far more dangerous variant of the conspiracy theories is declaimed by the crane and ambassador to germany and renewed the current german federal president. frank walter stein meyer has been creating a spider's web of contexts with russia for decades. what is true, however, is that then foreign minister, frank walter stein mire together with then chancellor angular miracle did more than anyone else in europe to support ukraine in an op ed published by spiegel sigma, gabriel dismissed cubes. allegations that stand meyer and former chancellor merkel had helped moscow build a pro russian lobby and ukraine. he said those claims were untruthful and malicious, and noted the financial aid that germany has provided to ukraine in recent years. this germany's role as a mediator between ukraine and russia. that's now been tainted with these conspiracy theories. he alleged, we heard from german geopolitical analyst rayner ross 1st,

who says berlin should not be blamed for trying to maintain good relations with moscow. germany was always standing by the side of your brain. this is what we could see in the past 8 years. but germany was also seeking a stable relationship with russia, against all the pressure of the other western partners of germany, who always criticized this partnership. the west seems to stick very, very narrowly to the narrative that ukraine is, the country which has every right to act in the way it deems necessary up the moment to defend itself against russia. so criticism against any moves done by the ukrainian government is not really well conceived at the moment.

the u. s. is lashing out against china's efforts to provide security for the south pacific nation of the solomon islands, as washington's allies, australia, and new zealand to consider the region to be firmly within their sphere of influence. we are concerned by the lack of transparency, an unspecified nature of disagreement which follows a pattern of china offering shadowy, vague deals with little regional consultation in fishing resource management, development assistance, and now security practices. a u. s. delegation plans to raise the issue of an upcoming visit to the solomon islands while discussing of the planned reopening of its embassy their after 3 decade. hi, this china is security deal reportedly allows it to send police and naval forces to the solomon islands to maintain peace there. now the exact details have yet to be made public. last week, a senior australian official went to the solomon islands to trying to suede it from signing the pact of camber, is concerned about a rising chinese military presence in the region. china, for its part,

says western powers have been whipping up hysteria on the also to share what we want to say is that pacific island countries and not anyone's backyard, let alone cones. energy of political confrontation, island countries have actual needs for diversification of foreign cooperation. and also have the rights to independently choose their partners deliberately, exaggerates intentions and provoking the confrontation of camps has no appeal among island countries. the attempt to interfere and obstruct the cooperation of the island. countries with china is also doomed to fail. we heard from joseph gregory mahoney, a professor of politics and international relations at the east china normal university in shanghai, who says the west wants to create a sense that there is a threat in the region. it's clear that this newly signed a security pack between china and the solomons is red meat for australian politicians with federal elections now just 2 days away, u. s. wants to support leaders in canberra, who have followed washington against china in recent years. and they want to do

this by making a very big splash over what is, in fact, a very small matter in a very large ocean in short, can bear. it would like to imagine this is some kind of emerging close at hand threat like cuba to the united states. despite the solvents being 2000 kilometers away and not ideologically hostile to australia. although the solomon's resent australian had to many more than they feared china. what they really want is security support unrelated to either australia or the u. s. and they want the sort of investment entry that neither of those countries have provided. consequently, this ex, this pack speaks directly to their security needs and reinforces their economic interest. on pakistan's new prime minister, who recently replaced the ousted iran con, has called for better cooperation with the countries neighbor and a long time. rival, india, we believe that peaceful and co operative ties between pakistan and india are

imperative for the progress and socio economic uplift of our people. and for the region. this can be best achieved through meaningful engagement and peaceful resolution of all our standing disputes, including the core issue of jumbo and kashmir. the disputed region of cashmere has been a key point of contention between india and pakistan in the past 75 years. now. the countries have fought several large scale conflicts for control of the region, even sparking fears of a nuclear war as both possess atomic weapons. but last week it is prime minister, congratulated his newly instead in stated pakistani counterpart, saying india wants peaceful and stable relations. a former indian ambassador to pakistan says the decision making process in as mom about is still largely in the hands of military top brass. political changes make only a slight difference because in pakistan and when it,

especially when it comes to relations with india, the army plays a substantial role. know the addicted government generally goes by the advice of the military. so that is one continued factor, but if you can have prime ministers who choose to who of a different group, but they will have to be careful. and i have known the present a prime minister shabbat chevy. ready for a long time, he's a very able administrator. he was a very good chief minister. he's the brother of law. mister. no, i should eve. and also he has visited india and met to our last prime minister doctor montmorency. um, so i think that he will try and keep the relationship or no sort of balance we but in an argument analysis relations with india, his dues not the elected government, but to the pakistani military,

which has the predominant see in determining that relationship. we also got some insight from a retired pakistani air force commander and a security analyst who says it's too early to be optimistic about relations between islam by the and new delhi. not under more did i didn't do the new prime minister suggesting a good relationship in the future, but unfortunately, well, the problem stay as they have always been for the last 7 decades between india and pakistan. and at the same time, shabba should it may not be in part for too long, simply because the fraction critical environment in august is almost pressing and holding for an immediate election might not be as immediate. it could be a few months down the line, but it seems that that could be perhaps the big name of the starting up yet as a government. and you get to begin not say that we need because it is a site may be willing to move one another area, but we continue to work on cash made. and i think that my design is like to see.

and then the problem is sort, unsolvable not by the standards of the u. n. a c or the united nations as settled because that is where we all go to a problem. then that is something that are still very valid and relevant in terms of the of so many, i think about 30 article resolutions on the united nations security council. since $1947.00 and be a stick to those and b stand by those and similarly and yet does, because they're d as a signatory, as much to those as solutions as it is to the united nations, as, as russia and all and all the other members of the b 531 and a half minutes. that's what i will be back as another lecture. no, stay with us. i to international. ah, no. when i was sure seemed wrong when i'll

just don't hold any world that you have to shape out is the, becomes the advocate and engagement. it was the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look so common ground. we are told one of the hallmarks of western liberalism is the idea and practice of dollars. more specifically, it is said we should not judge an individual or group based on their race color or creed. but that apparently doesn't apply when it comes to russians. bruce, a phobia is the new bigotry with
