[000:00:00;00] a, [000:00:00;00] with tremendous fireworks display that celebrating the historic defeat of nazi of them are held across cities in ukraine and the dunbar where russian forces have taken control. victory, depraved in the dumbass are also held for the 1st time since the qu give 8 years ago. we hear from an american journalist who describes how things work during that time in the city of the guns ever since my down math, and they've had free reign and they've been murdering breaking robbing people. and

quite thankfully, russia and ukraine is president zelinski and it's military post a photo on social media of a soldier, probably displaying a nazi symbol in a message about decree, date, memory, and missiles reportedly strike ukrainian port city of augusta destroying several buildings allegedly used by the ukrainian military, a broadcasting live direct from our studios in moscow. this is our to international, and john thomas certainly glad to have you with us. as peaceful life is starting to be restored and ukrainian, and dumbass cities taken by joint russian, danielle kendall guns, forces fireworks for world war 2 victory day celebrations. have replaced the front lines showing a southern ukrainian cities of bread johnson and a godaddy where russian forces are currently position for the 1st time in many

years have joined in on the main line celebrations. residents of the dumbass cities of danielle and lou ganske, also to pardon the festivities and all across russia, fireworks eliminated the sky lines of dozens of major cities. ah mm.

with with with stunning images there now the 77th anniversary of victory over nazi germany was commemorated in russia not only with brilliant fireworks, but also military parades and widespread civilian celebrations, all across the country. huge crowds turned out for the annual immortal regiment, march and moscow and other cities as well, with people carrying photos of relatives and loved ones who took part in world war 2 parties. ellipse ranko reports. i don't know a march that is bigger than this. in this country, i don't know a holiday, a celebration, an event that's more important for russians than victory day, and something that warms up the hearts of everyone as much as the immortal

regiment march. now let me just tell you how this tradition was born about a couple of decades ago. it's use yes to the small russian city, came up with this idea. print out the photos of your relative, great grand parents, grandparents. maybe someone else from your family, but took part in the warm hear the stories from the older generation. just think about what these people went through during these very difficult times when once again, millions of soviet citizens and other citizens from other countries or the world died in self heard up, commemorate, remember, and just take these photos march. think about all this. and now what he, you see, this is the main street of moscow. bit of sky gets you compare,

you can compare to upshaw's any zane powers, for example. and it is full of people. we saw cosmonaut on the international space station. we saw people in a city beyond the arctic circle in russia and snow. this is how it's important for the people in russia and guess who you can see here. my for great grandparents, you start an exaggeration when they say that every family was affected by the war. there you have it. it's a hervey from everyone around me. that's what i can hear pretty much every minute. here at the more for roger barge and central mosque was what i was tell you is that there was a contribution from every single person, my great grandparents that you can see on my right. well, clearly, judging from the previous years,

several 100000 people usually take part. maybe this year a record will be said in a model regiment commemoration was held in the southern ukrainian city of her son. in the 1st time that a parade has been able to take place in the city since russian forces took control over a month ago. but the event almost took a deadly turn as a ukrainian missile attack on the precision was afforded by a russian defense system. this, according to the russian military city in eastern ukraine, also held his 1st mortal regiment procession to the 1st time since the 2014 qu, in king locals with many children and world war 2 veterans among them, flooded the streets of relatable carrying portraits of relatives who fought in the historic conflicts residents also brought flowers to the brothers grave memorial, where the eternal flame has been released. after a 7 year absence. the city has been under the control of a new administration since the 3rd week of the same conference. and in the dumbass

city of marble, recently retaken by russian lead forces, victory de is also being celebrated with a massive 300 metre long st. george ribbon unfurled in the city, and any eternal flame solemnly lit people, carried portraits of their relatives and lay flowers at a monument to those fallen in the world. war to many local said that they are happy to be able to openly celebrate victory day for the 1st time. in 8 years, as marable had been under the control of ukraine's military since 2014 it them. but i think it's a holiday. it's not even a longing, this is a joy that overwhelmed the so because for all 8 years, all this was forbidden here to see if there is a holiday in my soul now because we have been waiting for all 8 years that we were waiting for victory day when we wouldn't be afraid to go to the monument and lay flowers. ukraine had been dismissing the viewpoints of people in danielle can

lugens regions for years. or she heard from george lesson and american journalist who moved to the dumbass in 2012. he says, the start of the russian military operation has been a huge relief for the people of the dumbass who had been oppressed by neo nazi groups integrated into the ukranian armed forces. ukraine was coming across the gray line in mass, and the people of dumbass would've just been devastated. and what i'm talking about them murdering everybody where they stood wherever they found people. that was their plan. and quite thankfully, russia acted and it's been ah, unbelievable for both morale. and just the fact that everybody here knows that it was russia

a save their lives. so what's going on right now, and the fact that russia recognized lance people's republic and honest people's republic. this is a great thing and everybody here celebrated that how do i feel about as of and the other national battalions and what they've done over the last 8 years. it will, it makes me very angry. ever since my down happened. they've had free reign and they've been murdering raping robbing people across ukraine, across dumbass wherever they're allowed to, to stand. they're involved in criminal activity. these people need to be brought to justice one way or the other, and the people that have suffered under them. and by them need closure, they need resolution so they can get on with their lives. or this is important because of all the people that as

a lot of skills. and they just talk to people just disappeared. the families right now don't how that closure. the good spirit of victory day was not reciprocated across all of ukraine. however, she is president zelinski, and the national defense ministry posted a on social media of a soldier, probably displaying a nazi symbol later. the photo was deleted from both accounts on twitter and telegram. this symbol was used by an elite not few german pansies, division and other fascist forces during world war 2. we heard from serbian american journalist and a historian, your book, mileage, who says it's not hard to find such symbols throughout ukraine's agenda. considering that you can't find of a photo anywhere from ukraine in recent months. that doesn't contain some kind of nazi insignia be at the top call from the, from the 3rd ss that was in question in today's post,

or the black son used by as of old, a volt sagal also used by as of which seems to be integrated interest about every aspect of ukraine's military, it's just a single unit. unfortunately in trying to prove that they are not nazis, d ukrainian ski proving over and over that well yes, actually they are. and it's, it's only baffling to people who have been wilfully pretending that this is not the case. it doesn't matter that these very same outlets in some cases, very same journalists just a couple of years ago, were writing about us off being this problematic nest of white supremacists, racist fascists who aim to spread their toxic ideology and europe. and could link them to the new zealand mosque shooter as well as other terrorists around the world . and now do the same. i was like, no, no, no, that's fine. you know, they were different. they're basically eating their own words because the narrative has changed. because right now and as of and ukraine are useful to the geo

politics of the west. and if you know, if truth gets in the way of that will too bad. it's despicable. russian president vladimir putin in a solemn speech and an honor of victory dang thing. to allied forces for their contribute a contribution to the defeat of fascism in the 2nd world war. but just american veterans who wanted to come to the parade in moscow were essentially prohibited from doing so. but i want them to know. we are proud to view exploits and your heroic deeds of your contribution to the victory. we all know all soldiers of the allied armies look at your and use not britton's defense. secretary ben wallace has quick to criticize pollutants, speech accusing rush of dishonoring. if military passed with the war in ukraine in which was claims, the russian army will be defeated through the invasion of ukraine, put in his inner circle in his generals. and i'm marrying fascism and tyranny 7070 years ago. repeating the errors of last century is to tell

a tarion regimes and for them and for person that can be no victory day, only dishonor and surely defeat and ukraine. what's interesting is the, it's very inappropriate for the state of victory day having if you look at president for mark, see, even he thinks the allied forces he actually specifically pointed out the american involvement and how lot of veterans are not able to to come for that would have liked to come, i mean, he actually embraced the whole allied movement to defeat naziism and then to have the b, u and the u. k. politicians stating this very, very bad, very bad message is very poor example, especially on this, on this day on the celebration. because this is not about the war in ukraine. it's about what was done 70 some years ago and the defeat of nazi germany and their their countries would not be where they are today. it was not for russia when

i listened to mr. wallace it's i don't know if he's in a different world. if he's delusional, but definitely it's not describing rush at all. if anything he's actually describing what you know the, the alternation are doing and the, and what many would, if you're going to look at fascist, i mean, and fascism. it's essentially what ukraine is actually evolving into with the alternation, controlling so many things. i mean, the definition is right there, definitely not russia. and i think mr. wallace is poorly very badly misplaced. and some of the verbage was very unprofessional. and, and, you know, uncalled for by any sub diplomat. several missiles have reportedly hit the ukrainian port, city of desa, and the black sea, destroying a number of buildings allegedly used by ukrainian military. now this is unverified

video, purportedly showing the targeted area, some unconfirmed sources say this was a hotel which had allegedly been occupied by ukrainian troops. that's after another resort, allegedly housing at 4 and mercenaries was fired upon another huge explosion was caught on video in odessa reports to say that a shopping mall and a warehouse were hit. it seems the explosions continued for some time after the initial strike suggesting that the building could have been use to store the munition. now meanwhile, us president joe biden has signed the lend lease act for ukraine to make it easier to send a lot more military supplies to give of after the u. s. has already given more than $3000000000.00 in a to ukraine and has sold an additional $165000000.00 worth of weaponry to the country. here's what joe biden had to say about sign. the bill provides another

important tourist with the key credit people fight to defend their country. democracy against war, president biden just signed off on the return of the lend lease act for the 1st time since world war 2 program will allow the buying administration to increase the number of weapons it's sending over to its allies without the typical government oversight. and with the promise that they will submit payment at a later date. now, historically, the lend, lease act has been used to give supplies to u. s. allies who are specifically acting in defense of us national security. that as legislation did pass with overwhelming support from the u. s. congress. however, there were a few members who spoke out and warned the new and unprecedented powers that the u . s. will be giving to ukraine. congress just authorized biden, to transfer virtually any weapon of war, other than

a nuclear weapon to ukraine. insane. here is the link to the bill and the statutory definition of defensive article, the bill references i voted no. now this all comes as the by an administration has already signed off on more than $3700000000.00 and funding for ukraine is calling on congress for an additional $33000000000.00. 20000000000 of that will be given directly to the ukrainian military. now this legal aid is new and unprecedented, and it's also reason concerns about whether the u. s. will still have weapons to defend itself here at home after it's done sending off supplies to ukraine. we just burned through 7 years worth of javelin, and that's not only important as we continue to try and help ukrainians when in ukraine. that's important as we try to simultaneously defend taiwan from aggression from the chinese communist party. they're going to need access to some of these same weapon systems,

and we simply don't have the stockpiles at present in order to backfill what we've spent in ukraine. now all of this comes as reports have noted that it's estimated that the u. s. is already sent over a 3rd of its stock pile of javelin missiles to ukraine, with defense contractors like lockheed martin pledging to double their production this year as will and lease act goes into effect. however, u. s. a visuals of already admitted that when they send those weapons over to ukraine, they don't quite know where they go. exactly, raising even more concerns. as the u. s. sends, it's only supplies into unknown hands. civil rights attorney, robert patillo thinks that sending more weaponry to ukraine will further escalate the conflict. i feel that that's going to conflict significantly less understand that this has been a special military operation, despite the fact that the western call this the war for the last 2 months have been a very targeted spoken military operations. but as this continues to brag on, continuous support from the west of escalate, the situation were made break out into

a full blown. what would you only benefit american defense contractors and not be creating people? what we're seeing right now is a proxy war, similar to what we saw on the vietnam war. what was on the korean war, where we would be using this as an opportunity to test you, russian military readiness, equipment, tactics, hardware, etc. so there is a battle going for there will be able to determine exactly what weapons attempt will be best to be within the policy of regime change the route the route, the middle east, and the last decade. so biden has recently said that he will be putting, putting cannot stay in power in russia. so they're making very clear what they are attempting to do. they want to find out exactly what the strengths and weaknesses are working military ought. and how do weaponry will react to such? meanwhile, in europe at german chancellor, all of schultz has alleged that vladimir putin left berlin with no other choice than to continue army ukraine. that's a stance shared by germany's top diplomat. melina burdock,

whose militant approach to foreign policy and support for weaponry to kill, has been fueling public discontent. i know better than the bach was recently booed and pelting with eggs during a rally for her political party in the western german city of tall. it is not the 1st time that she has been criticized for what many c as double standards over the ukraine war as a fair box, green party has traditionally promoted pacifism. but the principal does not seem to apply to ukraine as the foreign ministry. firmly back in the supplies of weapons, your political expert appear and manual tillman has expressed a concern that the use arm supplies to ukraine could undermine the box, security, and stress that many regular europeans have criticized their leaders for

involvement in the conflict. there is a huge propaganda on the west side in all of a media because or since most of you member states decided to support ukraine against russia and not to where the new which was stand it same. it's very danger was sir approach because or he turned prevents the zelinski regime to, to negotiate tom. so flight weapons, for example, it will be spread to many, many group of people, extreme east, neo nazi and 2. it would be very bad for the security of europeans. a future under defacto or mainstream media are supporting jo. you create the take for granted oral ukrainian propaganda in the narrative or american on august saxons, narratives in general on against russia. there is no questioning at all in the

media, but many people are populations in different member states or so for example, in france, there are many people who doesn't. we don't believe all of this. you foreign policy chief, had just burrell says, the block should consider using, seized russian assets to pay for the reconstruction of ukraine. western powers have already frozen the bulk of the russian, that central banks, foreign currency reserves as punishment for the conflict in ukraine or to show davinsky explains how to make russia pe. that is the burning question in many western countries and with sanctions. not perhaps hating as hard rushes economy as the may have hoped. what next? now the youth top per month wants to donate into rushes,

frozen foreign exchange reserves. a method already used by the us with us can funds in afghanistan. i would be very much in favor because it is full of logic . we have the money in our pockets and someone has to explain to me why it is good for the afghan money and not good for the russian money. if they did this, the you would fax it to hundreds of billions of dollars to use as they wish to now under barrels plus not money would be used to rebuild ukraine is sort of war compensation scheme, all reparations of. so without choice, other ideas muted include selling the seas, property of russian all galks the us. he's already pushing for this. and the idea have gain traction in brussels. to personally, i'm absolutely convinced that it is extremely important to not only freeze assets, but also to make it possible to confiscate them to make them available for rebuilding the country. now he went on to say that he is already instructed in use

legal teams to find a way to make this possible, but he may come unstuck. some experts suggest, at least if he wants you to continue to respect international law. certainly it is a reg that in this day and age where the rule of law and its national law seem to have received it quite a lot, particularly by the us and its allies. one has to take that thread seriously. however, it would be a dramatic departure from international norms and standards and such. so perhaps piracy might spike alarm in other quarters. the u. m. b u. s. have brought relations with some countries, not just russia, the idea that they could just no fees, but also use the funds would be a traumatic move. if china seas,

this is us thing will hang on. actually these europeans and americans are not trustworthy. they could just decide that we're now an enemy, and in fact, you know, we do find various statements from various politicians that seem to suggest such an idea. then china and also many of the countries could start to withdraw their assets from. what essentially is the u. s. c of influence and that could precipitate a dramatic collapse in the use of the u. s. dollar, and also the euro. now such a decision could also back fire for the new sanctions, of course, can be challenged in court. you courts and the book doesn't have a great record of winning such cases. ukraine's former president janet cov itch and egypt for president mubarak both won sanction related lou seats against you. meaning the idea of spending rushes seized money could be just

a lot of hotter challenge, even skin r t. paris. that does it for me this hour i will be back in, let's say 34 minutes for another full and freshly new. so with this is our international ah ah

ah, ah ah, for the all new business and a b, e l does not assume zine. yeah. americans green when you go through it, it's just such an upgrade to the ceiling and provide you with stuff such and sure. of course, it was not a different sort of info with them to throw in your story with joshua st. louis. this is jim meadows. i'm lose cartoon almost shifts, not says q,

joe, of you, you lose some slides in your pro tunica a less you to not as q, jillian, you speak to a new book was always too well. new was brand new meyer took a cook of land, which was stolen, was brand new, sure. you buy them new spirit including flick. so you mean it's a j, a c, a, a call to get to provision. usually just moments from pneumonia, a new one in the pals program, but a message you'd always refuse to leave me on the claims come out of not says cooper, student go for going to losing the points, briefly column a recession. when is there like a, should we wait? you actually you, when you call and then when i see them now, but then, but i'm on if should it's a honda, what is the,

what is that the senior level. the other thing is that there's a what was happening in ukraine before february. the 24th 2022 and was happening now was a result of consistency and systematic planning. lou used to presume as a boys in you're still not says chris. joe, a give you a switch. i'm not a whole lot in. yeah, we're in. yeah. let's see screen. let's see. screen easy. let's get you. when you get a moment put you in there. i knew that there got a lot going on, and nobody can throw in all the questions. i just thought i would live with it if you see needs to regular, if you don't discover about commercially, if in your credit, most worthy a bit of leeway in that drops at the bell. whipple,

you know what question you're going the only me with this is voted from that and that screech and shell by the ukranian forces. this is 2014 and this is 2015. 820162017 . a 2018. 2019. this rally took place in cave in 2019 people with flags and posters went out to protest against giving don bass
