ah ah, with we need the world's use multiple us with the multi level institutions, the un chief calls for multi polarity in the world during his 1st visit to russia. since the conflict began in the trip itself, of seeing the secretary general facing criticism from western countries for simply talking to moscow, germany and i says it will after all, provide key with anti trust. while the you case armed forces minister, say ukraine should be able to target russian territory and can do so with nato's weapons. also ahead. once again found

a huge variety of different lines, greatly positions, again, minds that ukraine claim that told the international community. it doesn't have more evidence appears to emerge about ukrainian forces using anti personnel mines despite claims and munitions were destroyed, years ago, under international treaties with bringing you the stories that monster this is our teens or national. i'm union o'neill, good the, have your company to our top story. the un secretary general house call for multi polarity in the world doubts as antonio gutierrez is facing mounting criticism by western leaders for his visit on tuesday to russia over the conflict and ukraine with kiev slamming the trip on the u. k. warning. it could be used as a propaganda to buy moscow. the russian president supported the sentiments made by

mister gutierrez, having not the kremlin still looks with surprise up the claims of some country seeking essentially exclusive rights in the world. with the thing that the main rule of the world is, the un charter, the community, and other documents adopted by the surgeon, is ation not much. some documents that were drafted by someone for them sales for their own interests. and it came as a surprise to us to hear some statements of our counterparts about that someone in the world can have some exclusive rights to do something diner. stand. watching federation has a number of grievances regarding what is happening. can you frame regarding the european security as well as for, let's take in ortiz john quarter for more and not don. indeed, kick us through what was discussed at the high level meeting right here in the

russian capital while union. definitely some interesting takeaways from that meeting between russian president vladimir putin and un secretary general, antonio gu terrorists. first and foremost putting reiterated that russia is dedicated still and always has been to diplomacy with ukraine. you also said that the problems between moscow and kiev really emerged after the 2014 year old, my don coup d'etat and the country, and that the russian military operation does not violate the un charter. now the terrorist for his part said that he understands russia has legitimate grievances when it comes to ukraine, as well as european security as well. now, earlier in the day, good terrorist also met with russian foreign minister circ, a lab, rob. and actually we heard a lot of the same points from both officials during that meeting. primarily the fact that peace can only cannot be achieved unilaterally elaborate himself said that multilateralism was probably the word they used most in their conversations together is very important. even in these moments of difficulty

to keep the lies, the values of multilateralism. we neither, whoa, that's who's multi paula. we've multi level institutions and those multilateral institutions must abide by the un charter and by international law. use the wood you. the world has changed. americans claim they want to make the world unipolar for good, but objective processes go in the opposite direction. the world is multi polar. and we have been repeatedly saying that the un security council needs to get rid of its main defect over dominance of one group of countries out of 15 sit 6 belonging to the western countries and their allies. perhaps that's why the secretary general received so much criticism going to moscow seeking peace. after all, we heard from the british prime minister boris johnson, who said that moscow would just try to use the meeting as a propaganda tool. we heard from the ukranian president vladimir zalinski,

who said that gutierrez should have went to key f 1st, because let's face it, key of international position could seriously weaken if the u. n. starts moving closer to the, to russia's point of view in this whole situation. and on that topic, actually, lab rav commented on one of the you and votes, that declared russia's military operation, a, an invasion, and said that it was in violation of the un charter live rav criticize the united states for bullying. countries into voting for that resolution. and also criticized the collective west as a whole for using nato as a geopolitical tool. sir, so jill was when sort of, it has been done in the interest to contain the russian federation. and with this goal, ukraine has been consistently used as a springboard to contain our country for all these years, initiatives by the ukraine authorities to ban everything russian have been encouraged and at the same time steps promoting nazi theory and practices have been legalized. now at that meeting with lab,

rav gutierrez also expressed regret at the fact that the un was excluded from the normandy format. that was a group of delegations that negotiated the minsk protocols that were supposed to establish peace and ukraine before russia's military operation began. probably the most important point that lab rob made there though, is that despite all the talk of peace from all sides of this conflict, the west continues to send tons of weapons to ukraine. western officials continued to say that this war can only be decided on the battlefield. so all that considered, it really looks like a classic example of the west's words contradicting its actions. don quarter bring this up to date on that. thank you, don. let's cross snow and speak on some of those issues raised with a geopolitical expert peer, a manual trauma speaking to us from brussels. you're very welcome to the program, sir. so the un secretary general's hell talks of both rushes president and the

foreign minister. do you think that will help in any way in bringing a but a resolution to the crisis? any meeting or to merge? you let her leave or is use for, for or reserving your vis conflict, but she's not gonna be enough. or because you're the emergency law to our system actually doesn't work any more in emergency put our world the you're the mirror to not to on a she stem of to day was her beat off to of, of a 2nd go to. busy war are according to the new balance or power in people our situation on after over the 4 of us as sar or the united states on its arissa, one unipolar world and used are the murky lot to our institutions for

their own geopolitical benefit. so of a your impose, they are a uni latter water interpretation of international law. and now since the world became multiple, all the different great power said different interpretations of for you can a shallow united states, russia, china, they, you, russia on china would like a multi point our world undone. but don't accept any more. a uni latter interpretation of this entire shallow and this is why it's very difficult to through united nations to achieve or a. busy more peaceful end to risk conflict, or because you're actually in history, there is no murky latter are right now.

likely to to be your efficient. if there is no agreed. er has bosher, a geopolitical order. and so far, united states still wants to impose a unity, put our world on twice to escalate the situation in ukraine when russia would like her to were to achieve its main goal, which is a neutralization of ukraine because she is frightened just on the details today some of them are quite interesting, mister, good terrorist suggested to organize a u. n. ukraine. russia group to work out humanitarian corridors, which has been a huge issue. is that feasible in your opinion? well, that would be feasible if for act all sir, or military octo on the ground. lou let vickery dos or

b be opened, but so far, what you have noticed is that you're in v sir tactic, or a warfare or ukrainian side o is not really willing to evacuate populations because her each needs to use population as her. her sheeted her against russian forces and to so each time there was they were negotiations for human italian corridors. each said because, or actually you couldn't inside, didn't allow her population to use these corridors. that's where reality from are experts. so we're observing the situation on the ground. all right, well, thank you so much for your insights this hour. we always appreciate

a peer emanuel to man geopolitical expert from russell. well, let's get the latest now on the situation on the ground in the conflict, rushes armed forces destroyed for military targets in ukraine overnight into choose the including to munition death was, according to the russian defense ministry are launched. missiles also had to target in the heart coff region. ukrainian, drones and missiles were reportedly destroyed. while emery, no one has used the military and corridors we've just been speaking about from the age of steel plants so far that's according to done yet. people's republic officials authorities of stress that if some civilians are still left at the factory, they may be being used as human shields or moscow blamed for disrupting the accusation corridor from the sites. now while western countries claim they don't want to be directly involved in the ukraine conflict,

nato allies are continuing to provide heavy artillery to kiev, after receiving criticism for refusing to send such weapon. read, germany's defense minister stays the country will not send anti or crop tanks. to key if that's this by chancellor shorts previously expressing strong resistance to the move to his coalitional life. the nice thing comes as the nato alliance has been holding a defense summit in germany to discuss offering arm supplies even more. well, this is a high, significant change of policy for germany. just a few weeks ago the chancellor had said, no germany can't send these heavy weaponry team crane. why? well off shot said that that could essentially pick the west against russia. and that could lead to world war 3. germany is not the only country that is sending heavy weaponry into ukraine. we've also heard the saying from the u. k, the u. s. and poland. between them, they say that they are sending in tanks ammunition for how it says at grenade

launchers or because they say that this is what the ukranian army needs to match. the capabilities over the russian army and the u. k. armed forces minister has said it is completely legitimate for the ukrainian army to use such heavy weaponry to attack targets in russia is completely legitimate for ukraine to be targeting in russia's depth in order to disrupt the logistics. that if they weren't disrupted with directly contribute to death and college on ukrainian sort of could they use british ordinance at all to do guys only concern any of them weapons we've given them for defensive purposes get used and that would that cause any problems? well, i think it is certainly the case that things that the international community are now providing to ukraine, half the range to, ah, to be used over the borders. but despite the fact that these weapons have already been flowing into quite for the last few months,

may to has been very clear. it does not intend to put troops on the ground. however, that could possibly be too late. already, the russian foreign minister said a lot of has been talking about the fact that need to itself is already in a proxy war against russia. to do these weapons will be a legitimate target for the russian armed forces operating within the framework of the special operation warehouses, including those in the west of ukraine will have been designated as such, targets, more than once. i thought, what else do you expect? nato is essentially entering a war with russia by proxy and arming this proxy. there's a war on, not just russia that is perhaps upping the rhetoric. we've also heard increasing a strong language from the us. we want to see russia weakened to the degree that it can't do the kinds of things that it has done and invading ukraine. that's why we are arming the ukrainians with weapons and equipment to defend themselves from

russian attacks. and it's why we are using sanctions and export controls that are directly targeted at russia's defense industry to undercut russia's economic and military power to threaten and attack its neighbors. the u. s. outlining such big go will so open need is. so we do of essentially making russia militarily new to, to make it fail. there are some in certain quarters would say that that is the only logical conclusion that earlier i spoke to g political analyst and form a u. s. marine brian bar let a crew believes the west is waging its own type of conflict with russia. i think it absolutely is a proxy more end when we really think about it. i think it's you can make a compelling case to claim that what the u. s. has been doing geopolitically, has been a series of proxy conflicts with russia and china. this is part of post world war 2 policy that the us has had to eliminate the possibility of

a here or near peer competitor. and a fascinating statement by many observers, this, the u. k armed forces minister said ukraine has the right to attack russian territory, said the little while earlier. is that surprising to hear at this stage, or did you think this is how it's going to work from now? on similar statements like that, it will just be a conference, attempt to escalate yourself the facts on the ground in ukraine and prevent them from escalating any further. surely by the feeding the ukrainian forces in the field, their goal is to escalate and to exact the highest price possible. until that happens. you've got mercenaries coming into the country with their own ideologies, which sometimes suits very much, some of the, the neo nazi sent them in stock, or within some regiments of the ukraine military. now they'll go there and they'll get train. they'll learn how to use weapons. it's not heavy weaponry. how are you

going to control them when they go back to their countries when they go back with this new skill, the expertise as well? they're not going to be able to continue to cared even if it's not a worry for them. do they care about that at all? i don't, i don't think so. everything that these western nations have been doing all throughout the duration of the conflict, as has been policy that has been damaging most of all the but the west and the proxy. they're using ukraine, they are the ones paying the heaviest price at the moment. can know the story to bring you to a russian forces save once again, fun remnants of anti personnel mines left behind in the denounced republic. that is the spine key of having vowed to destroy them. years ago, ukraine has been accused of using such munitions on numerous occasions, but always denied the allegations. are senior correspondent, merit guess the if can tell us more as rush and forces advance and battle and shift

a vast amount of weapons and equipment are abandoned by ukrainian troops and nationalists. hundreds of millions, perhaps billions of dollars worth of weapons have been captured by russian and allied forces, including things ukraine didn't want the world to know about. we've once again found a huge variety of different mines. it's ukranian positions, again mines that ukraine had claimed that told the international community. it doesn't have like these mon 90 vines, which ukraine said only russia uses. and once again, we have found them as ukrainian positions. but even more interestingly here, he's another anti personnel mind it says in the canister by buried on the ground to be treated in a variety of ways by trip while by stepping on it. and what it does is it flies out of its kenneth to a distance of about a height of about

a meter and designates and all this shrapnel or v pieces and flicks of metal embedded in these plastic shred everyone around at the chess level. also here, ah, andy, thank bonds and hundreds and hundreds of kilograms of high explosives. what they would do with these is stick detonators infuses from grenades into these blocks of exclusives, and they would cover them with frat meltzer, bolts, or nails. and they would hide them in bushes, tie them to trees. so anyone who would step on the trip up would set these off according to the auto treaty, which ukraine joined at 1997 members. states have 4 years to destroy all anti personnel mines and cannot use them under any circumstances. among the mines that

we saw were, oh said them 72 and p and then anti personnel mines, which ukraine had almost half a 1000000 off and which they promised to the world they destroyed 11 years ago. and yet all around ha, freshly planted ukrainian mine fields laid to slow rushes advance full of different band anti personnel mines, which ukraine lied about the showing years ago to the whole world more i'd gazda of archie from vignettes creegan ah, now the trans knee stir republic a break away region of moldova, which has russian peacekeepers station their house, the clearer its highest terror threat alert. that's after a number of attacks. rock the region this week with the republics president saying they could be connected with the conflict in neighboring ukraine. because well, it is the 1st result,

something immediate investigation shows the origins of these attacks and unfortunately lead to ukraine. i think those who organize the attacks have a goal to drag trans nice into the russia crane conflict. i'm sure this attempt will fail. there were 3 alarm and incidents in the self proclaimed mil dove and republican turns nice during the last 2 days. on monday series of last talk through the ministry of state security in the capital city of to ross for local official said that the building had been attacked with grenade launchers and late on tuesday to other explosions happened in the village of my young some 60 colma is north of the capital to us but, and as a result to old soviet era radio must have been damaged. they broadcast russian radio in that area. also, we heard later from local authorities that the military unit outside to ross, but had also been targeted no casualties. have been reported and we hear that police is searched for those responsible for the attack. shortly after these incidents, they had of the self proclaimed,

the republic raised the power of threat level to its highest, which is red. and the most dolan president called for an urgent meeting of the country supreme security council, and the modem and government says that these attacks are aimed at creating tensions in the region. they have no control of this brick away region of moldova also has a border with ukraine. and one does there appear to be a connection to the conflict? was yet too early to say that it is, it has to be investigated. of course, who exactly is behind these attacks and whether it has anything to do with the conflict in ukraine without here from the president of moldova, it is a totally internal issue. but the fact is that we've been here and a lot of our trends. nice are in the last couple of months and the beginning of most of those special mills reparation on the ground. because some believe that these tiny piece of when really matters and is really important why. first of all, if you look at the map, you will see it has a very long around 400 kilometer long,

border line wave and ukraine so days, strategically located. this is important geographically and 2nd, it's haters. this region between the me, sir river and the printing board of growth away from over back in 992 after a short war 8, it's independence was not international, recognise, and most of the worlds so sees it as part of my door and it has very close ties with russia, 30 percent of its population russians and it is connected socially, culturally, economically, of course, shortly after that war, russian peacekeepers were sent on the ground to maintain peace and to prevent any military activity or fighting from happening. i think they've been doing great job because experts say that this concept is the calmest and the less deadly all throughout supposed soviet union area. and initially they were 5000 troops.

but now it's around $1600.00. so it's not a very significant amount, but still some fear that russia can use for the day, sir. it's operation on the ground in ukraine. let's now listen to one of the great. and now commentators military slash political. this is what he has to say. there is only one chance left to say, mary, you, paul, a blow to trans in easter, ukraine has the legal right to demilitarize the military facilities of the russian troops threatening us. we're here from the crime lane and from the see that they are concerned about the security situation in trans nestor now. so eyes are on that part of the globe, so we have to wait and see how the situation develops. artillery shelling may be the reason for the many debts in butcher analysis published in the guardian claims submit accusations. killings happened while russia trips were in the city mosque was dismissed. that saying it would mean russia attacked its own

positions. the forensic experts cited by the paper, se they find tiny metal rows while and death bodies know those pieces are placed in shells and used to hit infantry. both russia, ukraine, possess howitzers using such shells. however, the russian defense ministry claims its units are mostly out of service. it's the latest claim in dots butcher incident. i'm warning you may find the following video disturbing, which was under russian control until the 30th of march, when troops with through several days later. grim felicia merged, showing a number of dead bodies lying in the streets, some investigation into their debts as yet to conclude well ukraine, the wes mentary media were all quick to put the blame on russia with the incident cited in making decisions about sending weapons to key of moscow, the 9th,

the incident as provocation. that said the time was regularly shell by ukraine's forces for us senior security policy analysts miko bullets, believes many aspects of the story are questionable. when you start committing some of these things to the logical thinking, such as the use of this type of artillery in an urban environment, you have to start raising starts raising questions. he would certainly use it in an open field, generally not in an urban area, because the whole concept is to blow is to explode them above the troop concentration so that they have a maximum spread and you need open fields for that. or why would russian choose required on their own positions? it makes no sense. so yeah, there's a heavy dosage of propaganda going on here. and the question is, what do you believe? generally you have to look at these things with

a high degree of skepticism. and again, the reporting is based upon what other people told the reporter that reporter didn't see anything. first hand, there were no photograph. so you have to it raises all kinds of credibility issues that need to be seriously raised. and questions need to be answered before you can accept mine. who can think of the line the european commission president has promised to speed up ukraine's session to the youth. it seems not everyone in the block is on board with the idea. austria is foreign minister on his voice, his opposition to the proposal. it i believe that we faced the challenge at a european level to rethink our entire enlargement and neighborhood policy. a state like ukraine does not necessarily have to be connected through full membership. ukraine belongs to the european family. we've heard your request loud and clear. and today we're here to give you the 1st positive answer. in this envelope,

you have an autumn you. there is an important step towards your membership. well, ukraine has flooded the remarks by austria's foreign minister. strategically short sighted. it comes as key of house already submitted. it's filled in questionnaire for you. membership on official document that helps a value with the countries readiness to join the block. a political and social commentary. nickel markovich believes that presently crane simply does not meet any required criteria to enter the union. and ukraine under the current circumstances can in no way to the european union. i think that there's been a lot talk a chicken or criteria which country respect to the european union. there's the famous 3 criteria and ukraine doesn't

respect any of these. i'm not sure all countries of european will agree to that because that's because the community is more what the far country does that mean all the rest of the community pastor and sort of work to protect its members. i mean, the european union would go to war with russia, is that we would, it was also a crate issue. monday, a bureaus i would you have a i, and that is the, and you didn't going to talk to bill also the ukraine to rebuild its infrastructure . there has to be law, this is going to cost a lot of money and it's not sure that you're getting is going to, it's going to matter situation and that's are up for up to the minute developments though. do give our twitter page a follow. we'll make sure you're kept in the loop today. i'm una neil on this is art international. ringback ah,

a 3 year old we're still pretty much it. is it or she actually with my lemma city on their point to this is a lot osha. laura, that the she's us. hm. yeah. i didn't have school or g f q by 3 of isaiah you shes leroy, huddle shell. it's or chris you who to play with video are still pretty well g, u. s. e, and up on the audio in the city on the phone. serious you on talk with us mother and a little shiny.
