horton for preserving our history so that it is a loss to future generations. but our physical museums, places themselves a relic of the past. this is one of the best museums in the world. how many times in saint petersburg? how rough he is, the director here, and i bet he has met with disturbing images ahead. russia opens at criminal investigation into the brutal execution of russian prisoners of war by ukrainian troops. the un office that verified the footage as authentic as express deep concern over the slaves. washington accused of double standards up there, stopping new sanctions on a run, targeting fuel r petrochemical sold to asia, one at the same time saying it won't take action against the india for bio russian . nicaragua. relief is more than 200 jail cool plotters who tried to over through the government, black and 28 dean allegedly with you as support. the struggling

to trace frozen russian upset sits promised to give to ukraine with only around 15 percent of the funds that counted forth across the block with where we are counting the program from this hour. welcome to moscow and the global news roundup on our team. more video showing russian prisoners of war executed has emerged on line that comes a day after other frontage was seen, showing ukrainian troops shooting a captured russian soldier in the head. the un has verified and condemned the kelley and warning. the following images are disturbing. the new frontage appears to show the aftermath of the 1st video. several dead russian soldiers captured by ukrainians are lying on the ground. they have severe head wounds that appears to

show execution style killings at point blank range occurring after the men had been captured. the russian foreign ministry house released the statement slumming the west for his silence over a legit war crimes. the latest execution of russian prisoners of war as largely on the conscience of the western curators of kiev, who created this nazi regime, raising a generation of ukrainians. obsessed with the idea of hatred and national superiority, a shameful fact is the silence of the international structure that have shewed professionalism and objectivity for the desire to curry favor with the united states and other western countries. again, disturbing footage ahead, the scenes we just saw came after this is the 1st part of the video which emerged on social networks a number of days ago on proport, the sho, ukrainian shooting a russian service men in their head. multiple times, such actions are regarded doesn't work. crimes in violation of the geneva convention, the un human rights office said it considers the video to be authentic and has

expressed its deep concerns to the ukrainian defense ministry. well, it's not the 1st time ukrainian soldiers have been accused of killing russian people w's. some months ago, footage appeared on social media showing ukrainian troops killing all norm russians who surrendered. also last year, a video surfaced, showing members of a neo nazi crackin battalion shooting captured russian soldiers in their legs. united nations has documented several such cases. the call for investigations to take the middle. it's been reported. russian troops are currently intensifying, narrow, offensive at multiple points on the conflicts. frontline bottles are ongoing. in the keaton yet republic. city of archer mosque the ron google, adar r t correspondent shit down of in don, buff on file this report for months. this boss of the front was an

estate of a dead stalemate. ukraine tried to capitalize on last year's counter offensive, and sweep through the la guns republic, but its troops eventually that pulled down. and now russia is trying to turn the tide. this is we russia, it's hillary providing cover for the advance. the crown horses with a vast and dense natural

reserve here has become the main fighting arena. key of troops are swarming in the woodland. that positions are scattered every few 100 meters away from each other. so far, rush has made its gains there. it's a modest yet steady pace of one over the phone too. but we know the situation on the front line is stable. we're advancing toward severs moving forward little by little from last chance and it's becoming more quiet. there is now much less return fire of the enemies artillery was forced to retreat through suppression fire from the sullied our direction. also, there are plenty of firing position so it has become easier to work here. we can stay on firing positions longer and shoot more, but the key of soldiers are forced to abandon their long held trenches and some simply don't make the escape in time. like this fighter now in captivity, he revealed that many make it out a tool scheduled. you're going to people say to the full battalion,

go back to article, not in 25 out of 60. it's so to survive. we're all were mobilized from heidegger. we have no local senate trenches. he was only my full day on the positioning. russia has beefed up its forces on the ground dramatically through a wave of mobilization. and now it seems is starting to reap results. but its troops grew, not just in numbers, but inexperienced 2 of them. it takes us 10 minutes jace pi a position, an open fire after recognizance locates an enemy target. or if we're already in position, it only takes 3 minutes. rushes offensive may not look impressive on the map. yet, as ukrainian and western officials unanimously raised the alarm. there's more where that came from. i'm a get done of reporting from the dumbass odyssey the united states will not impose sanctions on india for importing russian oil with an official suggesting

washington will offer an exemption as it focuses on cooperation. we're not looking to sanction india. our partnership with india is one of the most consequential relationships when you delhi did become the biggest importers of russian crude. last year after european countries impose sanctions over the conflict supplies from russia, then rose again in december of passing a 1000000 barrels per day for the 1st time. while last month it hit $1700000.00 barrels. analysts say part of the reason for that massive increase is because western states are not buying russian oil, but through india. so no sanctions there, but more for around washington has imposed new punishments on to ron targeting companies that are accused of facilitating the sale of a really and petroleum on petrochemical products to asia. the us treasury department said that 6 around based manufacturers are being targeted on 3 firms in

malaysia and singapore. professor, all political communication of the university of iran food is ali questions. the galaxy of these new us sanctions against era in the last number of mine has been able to send more. and because we're chemical products in comparison to last year, for example, us sanctions obviously causing difficulties. but it hasn't been able to go out. i'm factions is, are buying, you realize that the sanctions are illegal, unilateral americans sanctions, the un or any other international organization has not sanction iranian only. and then profits come generally from age

and traditions that we have. a lot of things that following united states is that the sanction you're not doing it, washington fears, and this is what they have admitted. that if they punish india, india would pervert to china and strengthen it's like strategic partnerships with china and russia. india does not need the u. s. c, u s. that needs india. authorities in nicaragua have released from jail more than 200 qu plotters. they had tried to over through the central american nations government, back in 2018. and what was claimed to be a u. s. funded operation. it wasn't about negotiate in anything that has to be clear. we're not asking that they leave the sanctions. we aren't asking for

anything in return. the united states should take their mercenaries while i'm investigation by the gray zone media i played claimed the american government agency such of u. s. 8, helped organize the insurgency by funding rights wing groups. hundreds of people were killed then in chaotic scenes as armed gangs attempt at the storm. the presidential palace with a party wednesday killed the head of state so shield over the attempt to later labeled political prisoners by the us state department or your. i spoke to nick argue a based independent journalist, ben norton, who believes washington has links to violent extremely right across latin america. that in stage was the main sponsor of the violent very rightly elements that tried to overthrow nicaragua, democratic government. i personally have interviewed a man who is the security guard at the mayor's office in the city of messiah,

and he was tortured by these coup plotters and he lost one of his arms. so there are very many victims of violence who attempted 2018. and we have documents showing that many of the leaders involved in this coo attempt were funded by the u. s. government through traditional ca, cut out like the u. s. agency for international development usa id and also the national endowment for democracy. the any d, one of the co founders of the any d o in weinstein told the washington post, that it was created to do basically what the c i had done previously. but to do it out more covert, more overly in the open. and the any d in the usa id spent tens of millions of dollars, funding opposition groups that oppose this on the needs the government and the elected president, daniel ortega, and of course, anyone who knows the, the more recent history of nicaragua, going back to the 1980 s knows that this is not new united states in the 1980 s through the ca, armed in trained terrorists, the contrast,

they burned down schools and hospitals according to one of their former leaders. they use terrorism as a systematic tactic. they put the ca, help, the contrast put mines in the ports to blow up nicaragua force. so for many people in the garage, unfortunately, it wasn't surprising to see that the u. s. government returned to those same tactics that it had used in the 1900 eighty's. you've seen it as you've been explaining directly. how would you generally then assess current as it stands today, u. s. involvement in latin american affairs? well, it depends on the country in nicaragua, the government is completely sovereign and they have now expelled many of these people who were funded by the u. s. government to try to violently overthrow the government. but unfortunately, across the region, there are governments that haven't been able to be as sovereign where the same tactics are used. and these organizations that are funded by the us government to try to destabilize the government. we saw something very similar in bolivia in 2019

with the overthrow of the president, even morales. we saw something attempted in cuba, which didn't succeed. and of course in venezuela, the who attempts have been completely non stop going back to 2014, 20172019 with one boy though. so that the stabilization attempts never end, but the responses of the government has been different. right? so if a government, which is sovereign, tries to prevent these coo plotters funded by the u. s. from overthrow their government, then the u. s. deems them authoritarian, the u. s. imposes sanctions on them. this is the same thing that we've seen in venezuela, cuba, nicaragua, and then other countries that don't take action against the coo plotters. well, they often get overthrown, as we saw in 2019, in bolivia or right now in peru, washington's and ones plans to ease sanctions on syria, mid mounting pressure over aid flow to the earth. quick stricken country being

hampered by the restrictions. the u. s. treasury department issued a license authorizing any age related transactions for the next 180 days. however, it excludes serene officials to remain on the sanctions list. essentially the government. back in 2012, then american president, brock obama announced the u. s. would formerly recognize the syrian opposition coalition as ruling the country rather than the official. i said lead government, which is in control of most of the countries territory. well, with the 1st financial aid only now days and days later, reaching opposition held areas of syria at washington sought to blame that the lays on the government, russia. reality has been up until now at least that one country primarily has stood in the way of that. the russians have consistently threatened or use their veto when it comes to expanding border crossings. we're

going to continue to make the case. countries around the world are going to continue to make the case, and we certainly hope that russia and all those who would stand in the way are hearing and see these just heartbreaking images. well, the devastating earthquakes baths hit the regional monday have killed more than $20000.00 in turkey and syria including $1200.00 people in government held areas of the latter. the musket said western sanctions, particularly those from the u. s. had blocked vital a. getting to the bottle nation already, roberts, by years of war, the un secretary general also stated sanctions should not interfere with urgently needed relief efforts in the nation. or vanessa. bailey, independent journalists based in serious capital, sees the u. s. shifting blame onto the syrian government and russia, combined with empty sanctions relief promises is hypocritical. this comes across as

another empty gesture by the united states probably are following in the line of that politicize zation of humanitarian aid to syria. both before and during and after this particular humanitarian crisis. if people look at a map of syria and the areas that are currently occupied by the u. s. by the u. s. assets and syria, which has been admitted by jake, fall of and to hillary clinton and by ambassador jap, raised to the trump point man on syria. mike pompeo, that alcohol or is an asset for the us in the war against the syrian government and, and allies. if you look at the map of syria and you look at the northern border, it is totally under the control of either the armed groups, affiliated turkey, and nato members, state or to al qaeda, the us asset and syria. even the b, b, c. and even the new york times has put out reports saying that it's very difficult

to get your monitor and supplies into the northwest pocket because of the control of alca, either the russian, a veto over the humanitarian border crossings between turkey and syria. again, this is complete, a pa, chrissy. why were those or border crossings reduced? because what they were being used for and this has been reported since around 2013 . they were being used to expiry terrorists, arms, weapons and equipment for the armed groups into syria. ok, let's talk some big numbers. the e u has apparently failed to trace more than 80 percent of the russian financial assets that it has frozen. that's according to the blocks lawyers. officials are seeking to give the billions in cash to ukraine, claiming that move is entirely legal. it proves at all, so it's come up because we will also be mobilized to ensure that justice and fairness are applied in relation to the frozen assets. it is right that these

frozen assets be mobilized to support the reconstruction of ukraine and be mobilized for fear and legitimate compensation for ukraine. should providence? yeah, assets and russian taxpayer money in russian businessmen. smelly, according to estimates, based on a bank of russia reports almost $300000000000.00. all those so named russian assets are currently frozen in the u. but as he had only a few dozen 1000000 hibachi being traced by member states arctic countries. chris and discuss the implications of the story with my colleague, rory sushi earlier. the thing to look at is if we look at these numbers, so the, the european union at the beginning, they reported that they seized $258000000.00 of russian assets. you know that gold currencies and they were running that rate based off the, the numbers from, from the russian government. and, but coming back with a road, it which they come back this way. they've only found $36400000000.00, which begs the question, where's the rest of the money gone?

i mean, it looks like it's probably or would be effectively being taken already. or there's a massive, massive over the sierra, which you wouldn't really expect from brussels unit. it has its own currency the year i run by its own central bank, it does make absolutely no sense whatsoever. but, you know, obviously we've had zelinski during this well, ventura right now of europe, london and paris and brussels and all that. but i guess when it comes to the issue of frozen assets or even that the potential for stealing these assets, because that's basically what it's going to be as theft. why now? well, i think you've had it on the nail on the heads, right? very hate ace against me going round saying give us your planes, give us your planes. i don't think any of the european leaders and even the americans want to give these planes because it's completely worthless because that number one ukrainians comp fly them number 2, that very expensive pieces of kit that they need for that their own national defense. i think that's part of the problem and then you've just thought it just this constant constant issue that we're seeing over and over and over again of just just petty law. is that the just trying to justify now,

i'm really the only way i think to justify is to create another sort of storm of a story in order to make the world see that, you know, i think also it's for the taxpayers and all these countries to say to them, hey, you know what? it's okay, we're not going to make you set out for the next lot. we're going to give them money. that is, we're going to feel money from russia basic. do you think they're going to get away with it? it's really sadly, i think they probably will not tell you for why. i mean we sold the bank of england do this to venezuela in the old margotto. gold is still fat in the bank of that, or they haven't spent it. but the fact that they were able to get away without, without really seeming much outside from the international community and doing it, you know, that's quite frankly, a legal you may not like the policies of a government. there are many governments around the world. but you and i probably don't like the policies of but we don't advocate that you should steal the money. chris ams, will it turns out those some are already benefiting from those frozen russian assets, belgium based financial services company, euro clear has made more than 800000000 euro off the back of the russian cash. it

holds alone. let's go through that story a little bit last february, the restrictive, the company which works in the global finance sector of having any time with customers in russia. so amid rapidly rising interest rates, it decided to invest the russian money which had been locked off in its systems. euro clear is not facing lawsuits from clients who been trying, failing as well to access their own problems. german economist, i can help believes the incident raises many questions about the use commitment to international law. it is not on the shopping in the concerning international law, but it's shocking for european citizens to why. because normally the european union itself has no right to seize anything, no, right to do anything like that. it is the national government of national states who have to do this and they didn't do it. they, yes, making profit and stolen as something. this is beyond explanation. and who is next?

now they claim this is, these are rational funds next, who is next? and the funny thing is they are already preparing that every german, for example, has to declare what s s t got. so they next, it should teach everybody that these people are not committing to international law. so get your money back home. this is my, my thing, it is the same, but the us, us the same stuff. so for every your p and every german, it is essential to get your money home. not believe it that these people, and this is now breaking apart the entire concept of the so called globalization. and it shows only the strongest is right. the other one has to accept whatever the stronger dictates and this is not the international law. this is not the structure

of international law. we wanted the italian prime minister has lush, died out her french and german counterparts for orchestrating what she colton. inappropriate meeting, but loving marissa landscape ga, maloney is regarded as not developing what some of called the close knit relationship with key of our her predecessor i sent out a few in o'clock tonight. it seems to me that the invitation to zalinski was a bit inappropriate. because i believe our strength is community and unity, and i understand that there is a desire to satisfy internal public opinion. but there are times when favoring eternal public opinion briskly the detriment of the cause of maloney is miffed there. because the lensky has been walking around european halls of power this we dressed as usual, like he's ready for a pajama party at absolutely any time, and will only sounds up sad that she didn't get an invite. and it's pretty clear why she's not happy about that. just look at what she's missed out on british prime

minister re she soon act put on a helmet alongside zelinski and had the chance to pretend that he was james bond french president, a manual makin got to stare into zalinski his eyes as they were. photograph looking like a couple of kids having their 1st slow dance in the school. jim polish president andre duda looked like he wanted everyone else to know. just who loves zalinski the most of all. but that's what the pharmacy has come to these days. style over substance, so let's have a listen to mac, hong explaining exactly why maloney was left out of this slumber party. she's with you. i wanted to receive president zalinski together with jerome a chancellor schultz. i think it was all rolled because as you know, that france and germany have a special role in this question for 8 years now. pushing this process. yeah, well the quote, special role of france and germany for the past 8 years was actually be guarantors of the men's quick words ensure that he respected them. but now we know that that

piece agreement was just a pretext to buy time to arm ukraine to the teeth for on conflict with russia. the 2014 minsk agreement was an attempt to give you a crane time ukraine use this time to become stronger as you can see today. the ukraine of 20142015 is not the ukraine of today. since 2014 ukraine has strengthened its military posture. it is the merit of the minsk agreements to have given the ukrainian army this opportunity. thus the time the prudent thought was an asset for him, turned out to be in fact, an opportunity for the ukrainians. i needed the minsk agreements to gain at least 4 and a half years to build the ukrainian forces to build the ukrainian economy, to train ukrainian forces alongside nato, to create the best armed forces in eastern europe, according to nato standards. so that's hardly surprising the ukraine was violating that grain, it left and right. like for example,

with the use of drones to strike in east of the, of the country in the don bass region, for example. now it didn't go unnoticed this week. the hungarian prime minister, victor, or bon, was pretty much the only european leader who didn't patronize lensky by clapping forehand like he was some kind of a child. he managed not to flush his lions in the school play instead of an actual had a state who's supposed to be appear. a really does seem like a big show to these european leaders and with their own citizens as their audience . if they really wanted to achieve something though, they just get off the stage already, ditch the script and prepared lines that suggest an interest in perpetuating this conflict. and instead, focus on the more important but difficult work of securing actual piece came to the story to fit in this news. our space ex us flopped limits on the use of its star linked satellite internet service for controlling ukrainian drones. well,

it's after key ever said to violate an agreement for using the private companies facilities which are intended for humanitarian purposes. only we know the military is using them for calms and that's ok. but our intent was never to have them use it for offensive purposes. however, ukrainians have leveraged it in ways that were unintentional and not part of any agreement space. excel has been providing internet to ukraine through its star link system ostensibly. so hospitals and high schools can remain online. but ukraine has said to have used the system for its drones to help spot, and they me positions target long range positions on drop bombs. despite the, the ukrainian presidential advisor condemn space x as move to monday. aretha the year of ukrainian resistance and companies have to decide either they are on the side of ukraine in the right to freedom and don't seek ways to do harm. or they

are on rushes side and it's right to kill and seize territories space x star link, and mrs. shotwell should choose a specific option. independent journalist mike jones told the program he's never been convinced of starling. suppose that she monetary motives the whole value upstanding was to maintain military communications. we understood the high mas coordinates were being transmitted using the styling network to the forward lines in order to coordinate these attacks. so i don't believe there's been any real enforcement of this humanitarian only function for styling. i find it quite suspect that stalling would specify as when shotwell the ceo did in her 9 spent drones. in particular, we've known for the entire conflicts that drones have been used for spotting artillery and maximizing cause these on the russian service men. so why now my personal belief and opinion that this stems from reports from acting governance,

dennis pushing up the piano and following his claims of the use of chemical weapons . this was accompanied later by a video of ukrainian service men proudly showing off cyanide hydrogen chloride canisters that were being dropped by drones. that's the way the news is shipping out for now. i'm signing off, but stay with us for more program is getting there. start in moments. this is our t goodbye and see as a sign the west ukraine proxy war on russia is not going as planned. a new narrative is making the rounds. it's called the korea solution, the end of active hostilities and an armistice. keep in mind the side considering an armistice seeks to avoid complete defeat. we all know which side that is

ah, every spring and summer, the melting optics no reveals abandoned machinery. millions of rusty barrels and the detritus left by human expansion into this most inaccessible of territories. yeah, can you move sure, take a look at the prostate begun as an issue all in tears from clean arctic travel for heis island home to the biggest polar station on the french, joseph land. ocoee pelley, go via the asking you, but i was in the bosom where you actually should. so it means it's going to be a whole aimlessly, nasa monthly and i'm but somebody with a summer stay on the oil stuff. looks like you feel like you would for a, mary from a serial number zamiah's membership, one year of catherine dom sir, no boys, the premium, please join me of that of the optic pioneers. main objective was to explore and conquer these harsh lands. they had no time to think about waste management now and then.
