a coal mine that is working perhaps that was that sorry, of ukrainian military who tried to destroy as much infrastructure as possible here in dunbar as there are suffering losses and are trying to retreat from the on coming g p. army, along with the russian defense ministry from monk offer. if archie don't ask people's republic, ah, netherlands has become the 4th country in europe to stop receiving russia natural gas as off to amsterdam, refuse to pay for the energy supplies in rubles dutch company gas terrace. that such payments could violate you sanctions and present to many financial and operational risks. meanwhile, the dutch witness if a climate and any energy policy has said that the decision could complicate be need to fill gas storage facilities in the netherlands by winter rushes gas prom has previously suspended supplies to bulgaria, poland, and finland. moscow new payment scheme requires bias from country that have play
12:04 pm
sanctions on russia to pay in roubles. the russian energy ministry has said that 2 dozen european companies have so far opened rouble accounts full of british diplomats. william allison thinks that russia is more prepared for a decreasing gas and oil exports. the european countries. first reason is a lack of cohesion within the european union, which began in 2004 with massive expansion. you have, on the one hand, you have poland, the baltic states product by britain and america from outside on manically atavistic li, russia phobic, unfortunately. and then the other hand, you have slightly more moderate states, like france and germany. the move is irrational. i'm not convinced that this is a little pre owned by the european union because there's no sufficient agreement to pre plan. i think it's done on the hoof. pushed and pushed by britain from outside
12:05 pm
and poland and the baltic states in particular. i think that russia undoubtedly has planned for this. they may, may even have planned in advance for a total cut off. i guess there's no coherent e plan incidentally for how they actually and to implement this was the only name of the he was expected to impose a partial embargo on russian oil imports within days. and so after the union managed to reach a compromise following weeks of talks, agreeing to ban all russian oil supplies. except those the enter the block by a pipeline o b, it's temporarily. several eastern european countries have opposed the complete bond due to the heavy dependence on russian oil in hungary, for example, russia amounts for half of its oil imports, calling slovak year 74 percent of its important oil, comes from russia. the talks on monday, a sonia indicated, the block would not agree on the outline ban. now, some western media outlets are branded to move europe biggest sacrifice. the
12:06 pm
european union on monday agree to buy most impulsive russian oil. the harshest economic penalty yet, and both in russia for invasion of ukraine and potentially the big sacrifice. but europe itself. well, this is a political agreement. let's be clear on that. this doesn't mean that the sanctions package has been given the green light. it will have to go through some very difficult discussions over the technical, the legal issues of it. so let's not forget that we have got to differentiating things going on here. so initially, the plan when lavonne delay announced this round of sac should packages almost 30 days ago, she said that this would be an outright ban essentially on russian oil. that's not the case when we look at this package, how it's been politically agreed that the moment they're all going to be massive deviations. and the big deviation is the fact that hungry will be able to continue to get russian oil through a central pipeline that comes from russia into the country. we heard from victor open, who had previously said he would not allow
12:07 pm
a band on oil. he was the one countries standing out saying, no, we're not going to do this because it would be like a nuclear bomb going off on our economy. and he seems to have one his arguments. he will continue to get oil from russia. and that seems to be open ended. in fact, he said hungry it's been exempt from these sanction packages. we also know that the check, the public will be able to continue receiving and we selling russian oil products for further 18. so there's lots of things going on here that perhaps the european union would've wanted to have had, but wanted to show a force of unity and this is perhaps here in the weights being able to do that. interestingly enough, we heard from us lavonne delay and just in the last week to had she suggested that may be an outright ban on russian oil would benefit rusher. in the end, if we would completely cut immediately as of today, off the oil, he might be able to take the oil that he does not sell to the european union to the world's market, where the prices will increase and sell it for more. no,
12:08 pm
russia has actually said yes sir. sullivan, de leon is on the monday when she says that because russia will find other customers for its oil is also pointed out that some of her statements of late have been fairly contradictory when it comes to this span. well, you mentioned that russia will find another market, i mean, the 2 headed eagle, the emblem of russia, one facing west, one facing east. so there's always another market if you will. i. one thing that i want to know is tit for tat. i nothing happens in a vacuum. there's going to be a response from russia. what response can we expect about this? will run a sanctions? well, it'll be interesting to see how russia positions itself are, are we know that a russia has previously said, look, the sanctions don't work there are legal at present, put in himself said this is akin to essentially a declaration of war by western nation. so they're not viewed very favorably from russia, and we also had this suggestion from the russian foreign minister said k, lovegrove at that. in fact, these packages of sanctions were pre planned in advance and that's why most of them
12:09 pm
were given the green light so quickly. these hysterical i would even see agonizing sanctions were initiated by the west, their scale and the speed which they've been implemented shows these measures were not far up over night. they were long prepared and are not likely to be removed. viewers has revealed to its allies and quiet that these sanctions will remain even after the conflict ends. so this is not about ukraine. that country is being used as a tool of the west. this is about containing rushes development. because russia does not let the worst ruler unipolar world as dictated by the u. s. with the obedience of europe. i don't know what europe could gain in the situation in terms of geo politics. every political analyst is saying that because of the situation, europe is losing out on future perspectives. now what's going to be really interesting is what happens in regards to the black sea ports. we know the present
12:10 pm
puting just a few days ago was talking to chancellor schultz and president macro leaders in and the you in saying look, if he ease up on sanctions, we will open up the black sea ports for the export of grain at the export to quain, which many countries are saying that they desperately need at the moment. well, prices have been on the rise this month and are expected to be driven up further after the partial embargo comes into effect. some analysts say the new sanctions will also need to even higher inflation and western countries. la c, a european nations accounted for almost half of russia, the expos, while china took enormous a 3rd. but since january this year, the exports of both russian gas and oil to beijing, him sharply reduced, a drop that is being beneficial to russia as the price of both has significantly grown. we discussed the latest developments in the energy market time to ukrainian conflict with hendrick. we buy a norwegian rice or political analyst and form a politician who thinks that the e will face tough consequences as a result of its sanctions against russia. i say it
12:11 pm
will be very and very badly for western countries and for europe especially. and i think we are not aware about what we need for kind of resources from russia for our economies and for of food supplies and, and everything. so it will be very bad for you or pin countries and to but people don't are not aware about it. because our mediate on telling this and we say it is completely easy. we can shut down all the pipelines and when than we're living from, from bought. so we have not enough energy. for example, a food supply is in danger. and all these kinds of things, a battery, is we need resources for, for producing batteries from russia. so where should we get this from? but say people are brainwashed almost by by western media.
12:12 pm
i was there for the 1st time in 2018, i think. and i've been there several times. and so i have seen the situation. uh huh. what is it going on there since 8 years already? and i tell, tell people that, of course, this is not a war or a special military operational. what you want to call it is started in february. there is a conflict in 8 years already and nobody has been interested in that. we have none, nothing from the western countries to get an end of this or to support one or the other side. we only standing on the ukrainian side on the ukraine and government side and don't see what's going on there in a dumbass and many people have died there is shelling was going on an atheist already. so this is not a new conflict. there is a civil war going on since 8 years. it is almost impossible to come through with this information. it is, everything is black and white at the moment. you are against
12:13 pm
a ukraine or you are for your brain. and to there is no, i try, there is no trying to understand the situation. what is behind there, and what is a history we in the western countries from the rest time countries, we think we are the world and that is not true. so we have to wake up and find out that there are many, many other countries who are supporting russia. we're trading with russia. and if we, in the western countries give up all of this, we will have a problem in the future. that was a major point to why my party started in exclusion case against me. i'm excluded because of a facebook post where congress related the 2 republics donetta can log on to the people's republic and for their recognition by russia. i tried to explain the situation, but they didn't want or they didn't understand. so they kicked me out in the ent, that's the situation. so if you try to come with another point of view,
12:14 pm
if you try to look to the other side to try to understand the other side russian side or then you have a real problem at the moment with western countries pulling punches when it comes to stepping on rushes toes, some countries still refused to climb on the carousel and his latest interview, the turkish permanence estates that anchor will not participate in western sanctions against russia. sided up to them we will and sanctions against russia have also affected turkey. composition is understood and needs to be understood due to the mediation role, and we have them be, this position is clear, we haven't joined and will not allow them to be carried out through the ticket. while the usaa and the european union are enforcing financial on trade sanctions on moscow over the situation in ukraine, turkey how strongly opposed such measures arguing they are counter productive. instead referring to the war as unacceptable. the u. s. has been trying to get on
12:15 pm
board, but turkey has a set off to help mediate a diplomatic solution to the conflict. we asked her case, political scientist unison as to explain the reasoning behind on christ position, laid the ones from turkey's obedience and there are medians. what in our countries case mean to having our country divided? actually, if you would prefer natal membership over an alliance with russia, you would have to accept the constitutional change. first concerning turkey, which introduces new, different regions along ethical lines. and then the new sector and ethical conflicts, turkeys, economic base, has been destroyed by its inclusion into the western economic sphere. the georgia public has been founded by a war of liberation against western power. so these are long term reasons. turkey recognizes asia eurasia is the merging power in terms of economy and security,
12:16 pm
while the west is in the client. so the turkish economy and the turkish politics looks, are they more and more to asian countries? there is, of course, the classical economic pressures that the worst can impose on our country. they can use the p k, k as a group insights are key to provoke attacks as well as some serious term groups. they can push grease to a more aggressive policy in the g and, and the eastern mediterranean such as a knife, some social media that shows russian speaking ukrainian refugees being denied to monetary and aid by a man who demands they speak ukrainian, the incidents footage of which claims to have been taken in a city of involved in western ukraine, degenerates into a quarrel with the man saying it's not his job to understand. hey, honey, you johnny, come with you. well, i just wanna see if you might, you thought you have us with
12:17 pm
for you when you a well, the pose claims that the refugees who films the video came from the east of ukraine . neither the un, no key as have commented on the 1st page. so far, according to various estimates on surveys around 30 percent of ukrainians is russian is a 1st language for informal communication. let's go live now to don. give out like a human, a labor rights lawyer on the author of the plot to scape go to russia many thanks for joining us on the program. it's good to see. first of all, what are your thoughts on the footage which are saying? well, it's very disturbing, and honestly,
12:18 pm
it kind of underscores how this conflict began as your commentator from the last segment indicated this war began a years ago. and it really began when the government in t outlawed russian. and this began the conflict between the government and key and the peoples of the dumbass, most of whom speak russian. and what we've seen from the government in key is racism and discrimination against the russian speakers. and we see this in this video, and it's illegal by the way, almost every international convention has an anti discrimination cause it says you can't discriminate on the basis of nationality, ethnicity. and that's what you're seeing here. and it's quite disturbing,
12:19 pm
especially since as a woman, points out this is un aide, but it appears to be ukrainians who decided they're not going to give it to russian speaking from a human rights perspective, how just to find a reason is language misunderstanding when it comes to refusing 8 people suffering from a conflict. again, there is no justification for that. obviously, if people are hungry and need food, you give it to them that you know we can understand the need for food and water in any language, right? this is clearly a pretext that this person is using to deny russian speakers aid because he doesn't like russian speakers. then again, this underscores how and why this conflict began and why we are where we are right now. you know,
12:20 pm
with russia intervening to protect the russian speakers in the don bass against this type of discrimination. that hasn't been an official response from the un, sorry fall. but how do you think that you should be reacting to such cases, given that they were the ones providing the aid that was requested by the refugees in the video? i think they have to condemn this again. this violates the geneva conventions by denying food to people again on the basis of their language necessity. and as you say, this is a the un gave to give to all the ukrainians, regardless of language. so the you and has to condemn this. in no uncertain terms. russians, as we've seen and anything to do with russia is being canceled in the west, amid the conflicts. you feel that ukraine's using the same pattern here. well again, of course, but this began a long time ago again the ukranian government and has been trying to cancel
12:21 pm
the russian speakers for a long time. in fact, and i've argued this before. one could argue the treatment of the russian speakers in the dawn bass by the government in kiev. maven constitute genocide. you know, and now of course, the west has jumped on the bandwagon of bill of buying russian, not just the russian government, but people who happen to be russians. this is unacceptable. and it's racist. and you know, again, it's akin to what these neo nazis are advocating and it has to be condemned. and as you said, if situations like this happening, like we've seen in the video, it warrants a stern response. why haven't we heard anything from the west so far? about this and all we have a likely to i doubt that we will and we're not hearing about it because the. b
12:22 pm
west, in a way that it always does, but in an extreme way, you know, the level of extreme propaganda i've never seen before. i mean, essentially the west has tried to present this conflict in the most cartoonish way where the russians are evil, the ukrainians are good, and therefore they suppress all this type of evidence. all this type of testimony in video footage that shows again. busy the government out of key is itself violating human rights. they want to portray it that russia is the bad guy, the ukrainians are the good guys. and so this type of video footage does not support that narrative. so you're not going to hear me. thanks for sharing your thoughts with us today. we've been speaking to don kovachick, human and labor rights lawyer. thank you. thank you. i mean,
12:23 pm
while with more than 6000000 people fleeing ukraine's has the conflict started, some countries hosting refugees have been struggling to cope with the influx. now an austrian politician has bloss to the group of suspected ukrainian folks in the countries capital as draft touches us off the to talk. the drivers will be up in the center by men traveling in cars with ukrainian license plays dominic net, the head of the vienna office of the freedom party slammed the suspected perpetrators on twitter. instead of fighting for their country. ukrainian men are beaten up taxi drivers in front of luxury hotels in vienna get out of our country. according to the license plates, the vehicles were registered in ukraine's didn't. net per 12 to region reports claim that's one of the taxi drivers may have passed out during the violence as he wasn't moving when the attack is dragged him to the side of the road. austrian police are conducting an investigation that we have to warn you that you might find the following footage. disturbing. this incident indiana was the. 6 first time the
12:24 pm
behavior of the cranium support has come under scrutiny. literature now watching claims to show a fight involving ukrainians in napoleon capital during which also president died. and we discussed the behavior of the training refugees with a former greek diplomatically anita chris and topple us. i think a few, geez, when they're given hospitality and asylum, they should respect to the country where they have been given refuge and aside. we also have several cases like that in greece, with refugees coming from from asia, for example. we give them houses in the countryside and they refuse to stay. and they're saying that it is far away from grocery shopping from the center of cities and all that. so these are people who do not respect to the fact that they are being hosted in another country so that they could start
12:25 pm
a new life. and this is the basic problem that we are facing in europe with the refugee situation. ah, american weapons were used during the weekend shelling of don yet schools, according to the deputy information chief of the republic. 5 people including a 13 year old girl, died and 16 people were injured during the shelling of residential areas. well, 2 schools and the gymnasium were heavily damaged. don't ask officials say, american m triple 7. how it says we used in the strikes advise, it's the ukraine's president's office has promised washington, quote, exemplary hysteria if it refuses to supply here with rocket systems that are capable of selling russian territory. president biden, however, high stress the systems allowing he have to strike into russia will not be on the way with what
12:26 pm
we speak to a russian military expert. he says he believes that the use of that us weapons against civilian should be investigated as a war crime. yada was full to the american weapon supplies pose an immediate threat to civilians both in eastern ukraine and in russia. the weapons are being used against civilian infrastructure and residential settlements, which amounts to a war crime. this should be thoroughly investigated. the shilling of civilian infrastructure is probably a manifestation of ukrainian hysteria and agony considering the limited ammunition supplies of their forces. it is extremely reckless to use them for anything other than their intended purpose. currently, we understand that ukraine's military will not be able to hold the line against a large scale russian offensive for long. therefore, i think the depletion of ukrainian ammunition supplies by targeting civilian areas is bringing their military defeat even closer. ukraine now wants to bolster is
12:27 pm
offensive forces with multiple rocket launchers, which has been discussed by the americans. depending on their setup. such heavy weapon systems can pose a significant threat to russian territory. jo biden's, refusal to supply such weapons is obviously explained by the fact that america understands that their use against russia will inevitably lead to a retaliatory strike. and that could lead to an uncontrolled process, including a global conflict, and all of the responsibility for such actions would fall on the united states. therefore, washington's refusal is obvious, and kit is trying by all means to attract attention to itself and get involved in facilitating its offensive capabilities. to my claims from some western officials that the was stands against russia. a new global survey has revealed the real numbers on tay contributes a rachel marston, nice things the result of the largest annual survey revealing what people worldwide
12:28 pm
really think about democracy has just been released and it provides a snapshot of google sentiment about russia. surveys in asia, latin america, europe in north america, the citizens of 20 countries indicate that they don't want economic ties to russia . cut over the conflict. they include greece, kenya, turkey, china, israel, egypt, that jury denisia africa, vietnam, jury out the philippines, hungry massacre, thailand, rock, malaysia, root and right now mexico sticks out here and they also help explain what's going on behind the data, at least in part, despite being coast allies the united states and canada mexican president under this open door, professionally known and loach, has resisted falling into lock step with is north american allies with respect to their anti russian narratives. and it's taking more of a not aligned approach on that issue. and on other issues as well,
12:29 pm
morocco in turkey, also on that list and taking a similar stance piece of either close allies in europe. not a line that is asked for bracewell, you back in march that there was division among grief over the use anti russian sanctions. pretty much right from the get go. but another 3100 citizens do favor breaking economic relations with russia and ukraine. the survey says, and those 31 countries, 20 of them are in europe. they're joined by nations like canada, united states, australia, and switzerland. now, oddly enough, when you add up all the in favor of cutting time with russia and those against cutting ties, the total respondents for each country is nowhere near 100 percent. for pretty much any of the countries surveyed. and in some cases posted how is that closer to the 50 percent markets? so in terms of methodology that raises in questions about what's missing and why and what those people,
12:30 pm
the missing respondents who seem to be miraculously absent from the 100 percent theoretical total. and now it makes us wonder how their views might have changed the results. but the fact that nations whose leaders share a common narrative on russia would be on the same page is really hardly surprising . one final and said that there's also another new survey out. and it's a, you got a survey of 14 different error countries and all of them, all the countries except one lang nato, rather than russia for the conflict in ukraine with syrians slid in the blame equally between the 2. left late as heron, i'll say international, but with a back in 30 minutes with little.
