to sit and fund or other solution and talk with the must go or something like that to fund one solution for that problem. or weapons flowing into ukraine could end up in the hands of criminal gangs. that's according to the european union agency for law enforcement cooperation, which also said such networks are active in the region and may attempt to smuggle arms out of the country. there is a risk that these weapons and military goods will end up in the hands of organized crime or terrorists. this is just more of an official warning now coming from europe's top law enforcement agency, that weapon they're actively being smuggled from ukraine into europe and being sold on the block market. now this latest report from the agency notes that there are alarming risk of weapons smuggling and that those arms are getting into the hands of criminals and gangs. it also notes that they found evidence of a build up of weapons and ammunition along the border,
4:07 pm
indicating that this problem is likely much more widespread than is being reported . now interposed secretary general rather has already warned that this is a concern and that there's not much on their end that they can do about it. take a listen. we had to say once the guns for silent and ukraine, the illegal weapons will come. we know this from many other theaters of conflict, criminal groups try to exploit these chaotic situations and the availability of weapons, even heavy weapons. we can expect an influx of weapons in europe and beyond. we should be alarmed, and we have to expect these weapons to be traffic not only to neighboring countries, but to other continents. now, even though this hasn't received a lot of coverage, it has been a major concern as the us and its allies have started that steady stream of weapons to ukraine. and especially as the binding ministration is admitted in the past, that it can't do much in order to track those weapons once their son overseas. and this comes hard on the heels of the life of the ukrainian president, making a red trip to the u. s. that's weapons related to,
4:08 pm
isn't it that to write ukraine's 1st lady visited washington d c this week and she had sort of visual meetings with top us officials and included secretary of state lincoln as well as president biden, just before his cobra. 1900 diagnosis was revealed, but she also went to speak before congress. and you know, similar to some of the addresses that we've seen, her husband give the u. s. congress. she also called for more aid from the united states and for more was and here's what she said. yes. as personally, i'm asking for something. now i would never want to ask, i'm asking for weapons. now as her, those questions about accountability regarding the weapons that already have been sent or that stand to be sent to you praying that wasn't really in part of the conversation. you know, the united states still is acting as if this isn't a problem, may because, because it's not happening to them. but the latest statements that we've heard from the u. s. have been to continue to say that they have received assurances from ukraine and that they are relying on those statements. the us very severely takes
4:09 pm
our accountability to guard american origin defense applied sciences and forestall their diversion or elicit proliferation. whereas shared within the ukrainian authorities, dedication to appropriately safeguard and account for us weapons. so a pretty notable break there between the u. s. in europe right now, and it remains to be seen how that will affect their alliance overall. well, arms control expert ted c believes weapons leaking out of ukraine is inevitable because of the rapid way there flooding into the conflict. there's always diversion . there's always profit taking by someone somewhere and where that happens and where there's black or even gray market weapons that are being traffic's. that happens in every situation where the weapons are being supplied into a theater war. some of them are going to end up in criminal hands. i worked in the political military bureau at the department of state for 2 years in the mid ninety's. i personally reviewed thousands of applications for export
4:10 pm
licenses for arms and related technologies. and i can tell you that even at that stage, a lot of it was cursory on the part of the state department in the u. s. government . in general. beyond that, you're relying on something called end user assurances, which is basically what the us dividing ministration is talking about that the ukranian government is promising that nothing will happen to the weapons once they're provided to them. they are, they are assuring the donors that there will be no further movement of those weapons, which frankly, they can't do. they don't have the where with all the track, all the stuff that's coming into their country right now. they're getting flooded with weapons and jack knology and ammunition and ammunition in particular, is notoriously difficult to keep track of. and staying on the theme, the russian defense ministry stays within the past 2 weeks for advance. u. s. rocket launchers being used by key of forces were destroyed in the battlefield. the m o d also say its forces destroyed

4:12 pm
and they told me that it's not only ukraine, an army that they're fighting against as positions very close to here are full of foreign mercenaries as well, with the new to could you at the fog still, it's no secret, it's a fact that a lot of mercenaries are fighting for ukraine, both nato and the european union help them. it doesn't matter whether they do this openly or not. but yes, there is the georgia legion which is located opposite us and there are also polls and americans. we came across them and everything has been filmed on video cameras . everything is recorded. they have very different uniforms. of course, they fight differently because they are instructors themselves. you know, we have been preparing for this for a very long time. and ukraine has been preparing for 8 years, and the nato instructors help him train them to supply them with weapons and teach them to use these weapons. ah, ah, ah

4:14 pm
ukrainian army from entering this city. and they have been shilling ukrainian positions from where they at sac peaceful civilians. here in the next, i've heard the group go horny. this is the agony of hopelessness. like when an animal is cornered, it's sometimes bytes itself on the tail. why else are they shelling civilians? they probably hope the civilians will rebel and say stop this go and surrender. for 8 years the people endured this lawlessness and not all their agony is heavily concentrated. that's why they do this. ukrainian army have been in div guy and pesky near didn't ask for the last 8 years. so there are positions there have been really heavily fortified by the situation has changed drastically over the last 5 months. and the fighters off that national international brigade are waiting for their chance to liberate those cities romani costs or have r t done as people republic. ah. element, ongoing blame game bite, the global food crisis between the west and russia,
