ah ah with pregnant women newborns come under attack in done yet. local authorities accuse ukrainian forces of conducting devastating artillery strikes on the city, including the bombardment of a maternity hospital. we hear from people on the medical facility. we heard the commotion and ran into the basement, the walls, the windows were shaking. we ran to the basement and spend the night there. women were giving birth right in the basement. we're lying here on the floor and all of us also coming up on the program ahead of nato, suggest ukraine may have to consider seating territory to reach

a peace deal with russia. there's a potential risk of the conflict further escalate. the european commission delays whether to grab membership tendency to ukraine. some new countries express opposition against giving foss strike status to kind of free up. boy, that's all i had with mid day in minneapolis, midnight in hanoi and 8 in the evening. here in moscow. welcome to the global news roundup and artsy. i'm the new owner. the worst shelling since the conflict began. that's how local officials help described. this series of intense attacks believed to have been conducted by ukrainian forces on the city of done yet. several civilians are reported to have been killed in just 2 hours on monday, around $300.00 rockets, rain down on the city, striking civilian areas including

a marketplace seller maternity, hospital part of which caught fire. we got some immediate reaction from locals. yes, you have. could you say oh, i was sitting in an armchair and my husband was in the bathroom walking. we had a blast and windows shattered. i looked around and there was blood everywhere. i jumped out into the car door to see what happened to him, but he was okay. thank god said sheila, so what would you, what would of her you hit by the shar, cuz i wish to dump me up. yes. shots from windows and even from door panels, hit me. the doctors kept me over and removed all the glass from my arms and legs. another guy was taken to hospital. he was hit in the vein by shot. lose my, my friend nice to and i with the very 1st her and into the basement. down there was an explosion. i cried a lot. i'm just curious as to how to magically went down to the basement with my child. we still here, we even go further inside in danbury fell on us right here. i've come to my apartment, but it's completely destroyed for the wireless. as mentioned on monday shell, hit

a maternity hospital in done yet. the you in her slum the tank as a violation of international law, women and labor and other patients were forced to evacuate to the basement where medical staff continued to help them as part of the building caught fire. there was no military presence in the medical facility just to show you this image, it's been circulating on social media and show the baby in an intensive care unit next to a window broken from a blast wave during the attack. the child was born prematurely and couldn't be disconnected from the ventilator. so it was impossible to bring the new born into the basement medical personnel remained with the baby who survived. an rti crew made their way to the hospital to hear 1st on what occurred there. dangers could, in montana they were sold, babies in the intensive care unit, one of whom, in the rather serious condition, was placed on the ventilator. the rest also needed oxygen supply,

so it was impossible to move them into the basement. so the doctor's followed the scheme. we had developed over the past 8 years and stayed near by in moments of danger, ready to cover the babies with our own bodies if needed her. i'm on the roof of the maternity hospital that was shelled by the ukrainian military. one of the rockets landed right here, making a huge hole in this roof. now this top floor is completely destroyed. there were dozens of women here in this mature into hospital when the shelling began. this delivery room, in particular, one woman was here and ready to give her birth. and when a ard tillery struck all the windows were immediately blown out, katy vertical dressed. there we were standing in a hallway waiting for a blood pressure to be measured. we heard the commotion and ran into the basement to switch around. it started in the morning and lasted until around nina and then

in the evening, stronger shelling began the walls. the windows were shaking. we ran to the basement and spend the night there. women were giving birth to right in the basement. some were undergoing surgery. of course, it was scary. the like it was, they were undergoing a sicilian section in the basement. there was no other option for them. when you moved this were relying here on the phone and them all of us pregnant were crying. you had a nervous breakdown of his other grandma, the mothers who were expected to give her birth schanzer. regular conditions have been forced to flee into the basement from the hercules fright. they continued for more than 2 hours. and fortunately, no one was killed or injured or gotcha. had your, i'm sure the location wench calmly because this has learned how to behave in such a situation. so they managed to cope is always finance. what i want to say is that this is the place where children, when you lives

a born does then and mother doesn't give birth to has sounds to send them to war. all the cruelty that we have seen over 80 years. mary opened another citizen, humane for the sole reason that the 21st century human life is not valued. this much are in the hospital. now lies almost in ruins, very close, very near and dear to my heart. and so my camera man as well. this is where his son was born 4 years ago, and my god daughter was born i here as well. so it's very painful to see what happened here. this building will now be forced to close to be closed until further notice, and it will evacuate adult continued serving a women given birth at a different location because it's just simply too dangerous. here. remind cost red or russia has slum the western media is conspicuous silence. over ukrainian military attacks on civilian areas, a german t v. new show tag is show even earth, the claim that it was the russian military which attacked done yet sc

a long time. strong hold of true russian forces it, in fact, broadcast images from a devastated market in the city were local authorities, se ukrainian shell and killed several people here listening to wait hunt is marked and they're asked ok initially that the net that i mentions on by them also sion angles get to to me as a fellow strahan's, i'm getting the most even bushel stabilization i me is to come in at sue name and mock gloss that. okay, initial president. firstly, it is an investment. we discussed the situation with george elias and an american investigative journalist working in don boss. everything. every fact about this situation is obvious. all the evidence is very obvious. when shells a flyer, you can tell the direction that they're fired from. it's not very difficult. it's not rocket science, it's that they don't want to know. as long as they don't know,

they can continue to blame russia, which, you know, again, is obscene, but that's where we are in this time frame. miss latan, see jacks. i'm out of the hospital. mariel. i'm mucho, you know, why would russia in mucho, why would russia gives you manage very neat packages and then you deal with people they get to life just doesn't work that way. it's not to leave military's work while fighting has been raging in the heavily embattled on key city of several done yes. in the loop, ganske republic, pro russian forces say the last bridge that connected the now encircled ukrainian army there has been destroyed and trumping those troops. ukrainian authorities accuse rush up the strong, the bridge on preventing civilians from fleeing the conflict zone. kia was also called for the evacuation of the civilians in question planning to move them

across the river into ukrainian held territory. russia, however, believes that a cobra plan to extract the soldiers unsafe the evacuation route should head in the opposite direction. the lou against republic says there are up to $2500.00 ukrainian military personnel currently trumped in several done yet, of whom up to a quarter or foreign mercenaries, rushes defense ministry also claims extremist. ukrainian nationalists not being killing fellow soldiers to stop them from surrendering. bosley will deliver, i don't like very dizzy. well, there's been a rise in number of cases in recent weeks where ukrainian nationalists forces have shot fellow ukrainian service men in the back. that's after more than 30 ukraine in truth decided to surrender. as russian forces prepared for an offensive near the settlement of knowing, the heil of car ended in ask republic lily on the surrender in ukraine. his servicemen were carrying white flags and making their way towards the crane in positions. when the great nationalists forces open fire them in the back given city, 2 of them come on, go a little while with the dunbar. city of several don. yes,

gradually, coming under russian control after weeks of heavy fighting, the new york times, se ukrainian forces have purposely drawn russian troops into urban street fighting the daily state. ukraine can't much russian long range artillery and might have better chances with small arms at closer proximity. before the russian invasion, the ukrainian military had studied approaches to fighting an enemy with superior on the vehicle and artillery capabilities, including by drawing lessons from urban combat in cities, such as aleppo and the syrian war ukraine put these tactics to use in of, in combat. in maryville, where you crane and fight is faced, much larger, russian forces were able to engage the enemy troops for weeks. well look, i mean in theory issues, if you've prepared a city for a, an extensive defense to give you an example, had had the ukranian state in the as of stall plant under ground and prepared to

fences in russia, made the decision to instead of surrounding them in weighting them out to go in undergrad with infantry and root them out, it could have led to high casualties on the part of russia if, if the ukrainians believe that the, you know that that was their goal and severed and asked to begin to reinforce, to create bunkers, interlocking defences. in theory, you, you could trap russia by, you know, having them send in forces and add them, get the russians brown down that, but not the gradient. um, but that's not the case. well, we have right now as ukraine in a, in a, in a, in a freefall, a collapse, desperately throwing in whatever troops they can't hold the line while they try and prepare defences behind the river to, to, to hold off the russian. so what's going on certain ask is an act of, you know,

extemporaneous desperation, it's not part of any, you know, well thought out strategy drawn from some detailed academic study of urban warfare in syria ukrainian calls for increased western military assistance or no appearance . we met with more caution in the west. the head of nato has even said ukraine may have to start thinking about whether to trade territory for a peace deal. yes, stores and burg also insisted that the military alliance will stay out of the conflict to avoid a potential escalation is, is false false. that's all to question the way. the question is, what price i willing to pay for peace, how much territory? how much in depends on much sovereignty, how much freedom, how much the walker see, are willing to sacrifice for peace. we'll see a kind of vertical escalation, war fight, thing, more suffering, have your weapons in ukraine, but escalation beyond ukraine. nato's chief of staff himself as voiced the idea that ukraine may have to give up territory for peace. this is from the guy whose

job is literal. russo phobia to deny russia at every turn. it's telling, and it isn't just him, the idea that ukraine isn't going to win militarily, despite the billions upon billions of dollars and in nato guns and missiles and launches, and rockets and drones heaped upon ukraine. the idea or admission that they aren't going to win this fight is gaining traction with mr. territory. i'm not going to tell them what they should and shouldn't do. well appears to me that at some point along the lines is going to have to be negotiated. settlement, we must not humiliate russia so that the day the fighting stops we can build a way out through diplomatic channels. all of this is in stark contrast to what we heard before from nato leaders. when they thought that the thousands of tons of,

of arms that they're pumping into ukraine would see kia, victorious issue, you know, the sustain and coordinator support of the international community led and facilitated by the united states. as it is a significant reason why ukraine is able to stop fresh from taking over the country thus far. at sea, our goal is that putin does not when our goal is for ukraine to be able to defend itself and to be successful, to restore peace in europe, we must continue our support for ukraine. so in a negotiation with russia, it can decide on the nature of its relations, it must come freely and not under the bad barrel of the gun. loosely that was wishful thinking. front lines have turned into a brutal lead grinder. ukrainian officials have admitted to losing almost a 1000 troops a day, which includes those killed and wounded, taken out of action, a 1000 a day taken out of the fight. the question is,

how long can you crane keep this up? and that it's always when war starts, it is of course, on both sides, a very aggressive a feeling, but to see if the time we are no more than a 100 days in this war. and the feeling in the western societies said that it should come to a cease fire and in that they want to stop. this is more killing. and so that is why i see as of nato secretary general make the state. and i think it respect also by, by some politicians in the west. i think he is not acting on himself here. so it looks like he is spreading your work, which is agreed among that say's easy. important western leaders can tell the story. we've been looking at for a little bit of time now the european commission remains undecided about whether to

grant membership candidate status to ukraine. disquiet about giving precedence to key it has been growing lighter, protecting georgia, moldova, who've been on the waitlist for years. there's also hesitancy in some you capitals, honestly, starting the membership process takes time. first and foremost, this is a country at war. and the most urgent matter is to stop the war to rebuild ukraine and then consider it joining under the right conditions, both for the you and for ukraine. the e u has a pretty basic requirements for every ship, like being a free market economy, stable democracy and insurance. in the rural law, you member states are running around making international appeals for weapon ization to fight a hot conflict on her own soils. if they're calling for a no fly zone over the country, that could spark world war 3 or full, the neo nazis into their own forces and pretending that, you know, totally normal is really cool. that's

a lot of baggage and all of these things ukranian, president blinders. lindsey isn't doing. while lobbying for memberships now french president emanuel michael has proposed the sort of consolation prize of a membership in some kind of european political community. as he's coined it, which he says could include countries like ukraine, that ultimately want to be part of the sunday. now that's kind of like telling his a christmas party that they can come eat with the adults, but then seeing them at a cute table on the side, you know, with a paper cups, plastic covering up in, with a little cartoons on them. and the rooms and everything came on on my calls minister of european affairs was being blanche and honest. when he said that it could realistically take 15 to 20 years for ukraine to join you and the 14 prime minister said something pretty similar recently as well. we don't need to open at this moment a negotiation or procedure there will take a lot of years. the great risk is to create false expectations that become bitter

disappointment, less legal debates, more practical solutions in georgia, in moldova, as you've mentioned, have also been waiting very patiently to be invited into the use club or night club, you know, behind the belt row. and ga doesn't seem to be too thrilled about all of this recent talk of ukraine cutting in line either. if an open conflict is one of the criteria for obtaining a status, then we don't want that. we demand a well deserved status. georgia is 10 heads ahead in all directions. it's pretty telling that the most enthusiasm for ukraine joining the year was coming from member states that are net recipients of you funds like slovakia and poland for instance, the net contributors of you funding. in other words, the taxpayers pay up front and spending the most on the you, germany, france, italy at the top of that list of countries who are most footing the bill have been much more blunt in their assessment. and those countries leaders have been much more ambivalent as well. and the remarks and actions around the conflict recently

suggesting perhaps anita, temper wishful thinking in ideology with the dose of realism, inciting, rissa phobia and spreading disinformation. the reasons moscow has given for sloughing, individual sanctions against the range of journalists of british media outlets including the b, b, c, and the guardian, u. k. military commanders and defense lobbyists have also been pub on the russian foreign ministries, blacklist. the british journalist included on the lists are deliberately spreading false in one sided information about russia and events in ukraine and the don bass . they have also been involved in inciting routes of phobia. within british society, individuals linked to the british military industrial complex have been participating in decision making about arm supplies to ukraine, that are used by local executioners in nazi groups, to kill civilians and destroy public infrastructure. a number of big names in the u . k. have found themselves on russia sanctions list. we're talking about the editor

and chiefs of the guardian, the b, b. c. daily mail. the times the daily telegraph and the independent. and many of these outlets. top journalists have found themselves right alongside their editor and chiefs on this list, some of the most popular mainstream, british media outlets. they are also accompanied by a number of officials and business people in britain that have ties to the ministry of defense. they're now all 49 people on this list are now barred from entering the russian federation. because moscow says that they are guilty of carrying out anti russian activities and spreading russo phobic sentiment. but it's also important to keep in mind that this is not actually coming out of the blue. the sanctions have come as a response to western sanctions that were actually 1st lodged against a russian government. officials and media personalities, including ortiz, own editor and chief margarita c. manion, back in february, so we're now that we see russia's response to this. we're going to have to see what

the west next move is. you know the story to bring you today as consumer prices continue to rise towards never before seen levels in the us. president biden is trying to alleviate pressures on american high souls and shift the blame to oral companies and russian now says his approval ratings declined drastically among key voters and many of his fellow democrats begin to question his leadership. biden's. busy old line about everything being russia's fault isn't cutting it with americans . inflation is a real challenge to american families. today's inflation report, confirm what americans already know. prudent price, i consider america hard outrages was war. freight is to use growing less popular by the hour. the latest numbers showed joe biden, having a 20 percent drop in popularity among voters age 18 to 34 from january

2021 to june 2022. now it's important to know this is the group that got joe biden to the white house to begin with having a big turn out. it's not hard to understand why old joe is so unpopular, you seemed to promise an economic rebound, but it never happened. at this point, america is facing the highest rate of inflation in 4 decades. gas in the united states is up to $5.00 per gallon. in addition to that, you've got the mass shootings that took place in buffalo, ambien, texas, and the gridlock when it comes to guns. it's pretty clear joe biden is not steering the ship in a good direction. you could expect republicans would jump all over him, but now with numbers this low, we've got folks on the democratic side of the aisle turning on the new york times, let the cat out of the bag, revealing that they interviewed 50 elected officials, who are democrats and all of them are deeply concerned about the rising strength of

the republicans. they say that biden should not run in 2024 because it would be handing them an easy victory. to say our country was on the right track, would flagrantly depart from reality. biden should announce his intent not to seek reelection in 2024 right after the mid terms if the president has a vision and that's something certainly we're all willing to entertain and examine when that when the time comes. that's not a yes. you know, should he run again? i think that i think it's it's, we'll take a look at it right now. we need to focus on winning a majority instead of a presidential election. the presidency is a monstrously taxing job and the stark reality is the president would be closer to 90 than 80 at the end of a 2nd term. and that would be a major issue. he looks his age and isn't as agile in front of a camera as he once was. midterms are coming up in november and at that point we could see the u. s. congress shift based on how voters decide to respond. however,

after that biden will still have 2 years to possibly turn things around. regardless, there are many, even within the democratic party camp that are at this point saying it might be worth just throwing in the towel, finding somebody else for the job. caleb martin artsy, new york site korean truckers are all a nationwide strike. the action has already course key industrial sectors more than a $1000000000.00 so far. and not then it's 7th day appears to have no end in sight . the cargo trucker solidarity union is demanding minimum pay guarantees as wages helping threatened by soaring for prices, fluids and negotiations. the sud green government has failed to fund a compromise with over 20000 utilized truckers. shipment lines have slow causing financial damage to major companies, including auto produce for honda, on stephen maker pasco,

sol. how's the point of $100.00 military vehicles to ship cargo? us exports haven't really shred by 12 percent this month. i'm felicia is forecast to be the highest. yeah. deck us right to the world's apart studios. next we're examiner is talking, knuckle effects of the ukraine conflict from an eastern perspective with china for especially as victor go, stay close. that's right ahead. ah ah

ah ah with mm welcome to world to party, as the chinese war strategist sounds to positive more than 2 and a half 1000 years ago. if you know the enemy and know yourself, you don't need to fear the result of a 100 battles. but if you don't warn you,

crane has already led to have a plethora of unforeseen strains and the global economy and analyst form that's worse to be up to come. how well did the protagonist in this drama understand our roles that age and their limits? to discuss that, i'm now joined from beijing by victoria, gal weiss, president of the center. what china and globalization is a gal. it's great to talk to you. thank you very much for your time. thank you very much for having me. now in one of your articles prior to the beginning of the russian military operation in ukraine, you warned that these crises made degenerate into a melodrama with potentia the devastating global consequences. and. a i think we are all witnessing that melodrama or tragedy. now, do you think though, that it may still lead to some sort of a hollywood style, happy ending or should be prepared south for a much more sober, much more darker culmination?

you're raising a very important question. i think it is time for mankind to look beyond into the future. i think we can start with the year 2122. that is 100 years from today. and i can see 2 extremely different scenarios for the military operations or the war, the ukraine. one extreme scenario is the disappearance of the world and the homo sapiens from the surface of the earth. and who is the victim? who is the bully? what happened to you creating what happened to russia? what happened to the united states? it doesn't matter. the whole world will be gone. now the other extreme is that you're creating becomes one of the wealthiest countries in europe and in the world . but it cannot happen. list on several conscience. one is the neutrality for ukraine. and your claim because friends with all an enemy with numb

and you couldn't become a major connectivity center linking north, south, east to the west. and really, really, the votes itself to peaceful development and economic growth in that way, your gray calling will be one of the wealthiest countries in the world. i do hope we can see the brightest side of the situation and do our best to prevent the catastrophe. aw, i'm academy from happening as a result of reasons in your great now of both of these scenarios are looking 100 years into the future. i think much in line with the chinese percolating towards the long view of history and but let's stay in the moment for now and let's talk about what led to the current confrontation. because i think we, with both agreed that the russia and the united states, as the leader of nita, have been on a collision course for a number of years. and apparently,

both of them have decided that there is no other way to settle that irreconcilable security difference is then to go to an open conflict. do you think there was any other alternative, non military alternative to settling their differences on, on the security status of your brain? well, 1st of all, whatever that is happening, ukraine today is very tragic and very unfortunate. in a sense, it could have been prevented. a lot of people in the west now argue that russia could have prevented military operations or war in ukraine. i would say the united states could have prevented it from happening on the top, but have prevented it. now on february, the 24th people thought that the wall of the military operations were fought between russia. on the one hand you.
