again, you probably don't want to watch it because it might just change the way you think . a with joe biden makes a surprise visit to kiev and meets with president landscape. that trip comes exactly 9 years after the deadliest day in the might done could protest, which was the last over by the best leader. also ahead on the program, ingredients they were planning to hold these positions for a long, long time. but well, this particular sector, it fell in less than a week or 2 reports from the dunbar front lines of russian forces break ukrainian defenses in other run the key city of archibald this shit attentive service in 2018, it was upgraded to be able to carry the so called miss south,

the speed of which exceed the speed of my 9 times reaching 10000 kilometers per hour. the police, a 1st naval exercises held between russia, china, and south africa with the countries seeking to improve cooperation despite on resident the pressure on the west. while for again, must not be left in china's hands. that's the view of western political italy, something munich security conference, as the leaders call a fresh, stronger presence on the continent. something that they see is crucial for europe's future. with welcome to r t international. my name's unit a good to help you with us today to our top story. us president joe biden has made a surprise visit to kiev, where he met with the ukranian leader nearly

a year after the start of the conference, after photos quite a few. the u. s, president, south dollar non re, for washington's own wavering support to new crane on pledge this and even more money on weapons than you package worth. half a $1000000000.00 is said to include high mars munitions, the tank systems and radars. and all joe biden says it comes as ukraine mark 9 years since the deadliest day of the my done protests in the government who left dozens killed more than a 150 people went essentially that was a precursor to where we are today. our teeth, marina cost forever, has the thorough recap, not this is how it was portrayed in mainstream media, unarmed, protested dumb down in the streets by the right police who were retreating from kiff, smythe and square. i tied the hood, lines, security forces a short distance away. standing beyond the range of rocks and bottles. testers have

home me shields and numbers. the police have water cannon and stun grenades, but this is what it looked like in reality. ah, at the 3 months of confrontation on key of main square, the situation reached the boyland points, and the 20th of february, 2014, became the bloodiest they of them. i don lee been 49 dead and a 157 people wounded. this was the turning point. the protest could have died down, but they didn't, they got more violence. and the claim was that the violence was coming from the governments. a great way to force the cranes president, to succumb to protesters. the mans, 9 years on. and there are still no proof the government forces were shooting ad

protesters only evidence to the contrary. the snipers wiring were from buildings controlled by pro european protesters and based on forensic evidence, many of those who were killed and wounded were shot in the back or from significant vertical angles. whereas the police were right in front of them, or on the same level, at least, was looking for only the top to bottom direction of his wounds. his position in the video and findings from forensic medical examination about the location of entry, wounds in his right side and back, indicate gunshots from that hotel, and not from the bare crude ukrainian special forces in front of him. several other eye witnesses including other my don protesters, a medic, and a german journalist also said he was killed by a sniper from the hotel ukraine. in particular from the 7th floor. there is more, the bullets came from hunting rifles. well guess what? government forces didn't use hunting rifles, but you know, who did?

that's right. the protesters, something that was even documented on mainstream media conservancy built several 100 meters away, was firmly in the hands of the protest direction. just after 8 o'clock that morning, a news photographer managed to get into the building with a camera. when i come inside, i was saw the guys one come after me. hunter gun hunting rush. not exactly a clear picture. is it incredible, considering it's been 9 years? but what's more, incredible is the evidence that has magically disappeared. we must realize that the way the investigation was conducted unfortunately, did not give society answers to key questions. we have huge questions about the quality of the investigation. some materials simply disappeared, while in other points the investigation was sabotaged. this is the man who was

adamant that the government controlled the slavers and not my don leaders like himself. so where is the proof? no words to be found. apparently the shields at the helmets of those who were killed and injured. where are they gone? extract the bullets disappeared. recordings of live streams cctv from hotel krajina arrays. isn't that weird? even e u officials started wondering what was going on as we later found out from this league phone call. it's really disturbing that know that, you know, coalition that they don't want to investigate what to expect to happen. so that there is a stronger and stronger understanding that behind snipers they were, it was not going to for which but it was somebody from the new coalition. it already discredit dates from very beginning. goes to this new college. yeah. it's really disturbing. bob, let's continue support them anyway. after all, the west had been egging them on for so long. victoria newland flew in 3 times and

was literally feeding pro european protesters. us senator john mccain joined the party, encourage and protesters to keep going, agreeing with them, but their future is in europe no matter what their democratically elected president wants or has decided to do the people of mother. they know that the united states stands with you in your search, or just for human curity, for economic health and for the european future that you have chosen the people. this is your moment. this is about, you know, one, no one else really. then why was the was truly in ukraine's business discussing and

planning who should run once we've all heard the leaks conversations where the west insisted on our journey gets a new so become ukraine's new leader. and sure enough, there guy was installed and traveled to washington right away. so the crowds in the key of and the folks in washington got what they wanted. a pro western governments would know twice to rush up. a scary prospect for those who cleans who aligned with russia linguistically, historically and culturally so they took to the streets, often meets in a brutal consequence like the massacre in odessa. we're almost 50 of them were trap in the building that will sets a blaze. burn and i'm alive. this of course cemented clearly. the hatred between the 2 sides realized that he had decided to our fate without asking us. they said that they wanted to be with europe and didn't need the ration customs union and

russia, things that were going on and key disturbed that hugely the will know what happened after that. crimea detached insurance, russia the civil war, and don't boss started and need so began arming the key of regime with civilians terrorized for years. now let's take a moment to remember john mccain's words and key. if once again you are sure you want for your country. this is the future uses your or what is this what he had in mind? surely the wife didn't expect rossa to allow a puppet regime to terrorize it, civilians and arm up along its borders with hopes and dreams of being part of nato . every action has a reaction, and that was actions points to the fact that my dawn was a gateway. so a war was russia. marina cost river with the brick done now just hours before joe

biden, surprise visit to key f. ukrainian shelling killed a 12 year old girl in the village in russia's western belgrade region. the regions governor said the girl had been in the street talking to her father on the phone when 9 artillery rhymes in the area later another artillery strike on the same village, killed a woman on winter, the man, according to the local governor, who said a poultry farm was also hit in the attack. well, as residential areas are hit by ukrainian shells, russian forces are advancing on the front lines. the ministry of defense has confirmed the taking of the village of paris, coffee, f, k, a stronghold north of the embattled key city of our cham offs, also known as back. moot r t secret shut down of reports from positions recently secured by russia's wagner, military company. a warning some of the footage ahead, his district. ah

. less than 12 hours ago, the entire territory of this cargo railway station was under the ukrainian control . well, now it's wagner's domain, him north emerson. there was fighting here in the night mil to reformations warren residential areas. machine guns and grenade launchers were firing here. they had a great position for shooting our boat, but our guys took this railway area by storm. plenty within the enemy, last about 40 soldiers out of a 100 of the others just ran away. and this ambulance on black military plates, which means it was officially on ukraine's army roasted was no aid or humanitarian

vehicle. it was used by keep troops to deliver reinforcements and ammunition with a disguise. it's crew found their final rest right next to it, r o j america's go. these are us made weapons. they use this ambulances cover to deliver ammunition and food supplies over my schedule is very low. you are as quickly on, gv, i so mercenaries from south africa here. and so i saw us instructors, germans polish ukrainians from the i dar and as of battalions as well. as the ukrainian paratrooper brigade, there was a strong group here. are you made up of all they've got? they didn't want to give up. our cham, oscar, the road we cut off was very important for them. they were using it to deliver ammunition and food. but now that road is no more thorough as well as those

mercenaries. well, now you have to brace yourself for some truly gruesome images. the defensive lies here in this building are held by you k mercenaries. this is one of them all. what's left of one of them close quarter come back is what wagner excelsior fighter, who was among those who stool this building shares with me, what kind of resistance they had too overwhelmed with machine gunners held up defenses in every stage? hearing those or they were even shooting in corridors to the door. it didn't help them though. shouldn't our guys know what to do to finish the entered the building the right way and covered each other with ah, the ukrainian command used this factory warehouse to shelter a tank ammunition grades are scattered all over the place. a roundly wagner

fighters are telling me that the everything indicates that the ukrainians they were planning to hold these positions for a long, long time. but well, this particular sector, it fell in less than a week. which of these are in print, some tank track stuck there. they made a trench probably for tank ammunition. they planned to hold this position for a very long time when you're older and did a lot of preparation for that. but they managed to keep it for only 5 days, just unconsciously. what happened to the tank? oh, don't over there. about a kilometer and a half from here. it stir, it was blown off. here. russia has tightened the noose further on ukraine's garrison in bar moot. because all this is a prelude to the resounding crescendo of the fool of the city. to the chew. wagner hamburgers, done of reporting from the dumbass, r t ken lumber headlines to raise today a 10 day joint naval exercise between russia, china,

and south africa's in full swing, aimed at improving cooperation and security between mistakes. however, the involvement of south africa has spar concerned from some western countries, have been pressuring it and other countries on the continent to sever all ties with moscow over the conflict in ukraine r. t correspondence. anna, can the shanker managed to step a boy join military exercises continue in the indian ocean in which the navy's of russia, china, and south africa taking part its main purpose is to exchange experience and skills . but when the 3 countries, militaries, as well as prepare for any security challenges in the maritime region as normal and abroad as the main focus of the exercises, is countering threats at sea, including countering piracy and providing assistance in rescuing people and ships at sea in case of distress, all actions will be carried out jointly, and each side brings its own forces. but under a single leadership and command,

the most important russian ship participating in the maneuvers is the admiral gorge coffee gate, which is equipped with the latest tier con hypersonic miss house. this year pants had service in 2018. previously, it was equipped with the caliber cruise missiles than it was upgraded to be able to carry the circuit missiles, the speed of which exceeds the speed of sound by 9 times reaching 10000 kilometers per hour. these missiles move throughout their flight path to what's their targets, making them impossible to intercept over severe the missiles themselves have no analogs in the world, and make it possible to overcome any air defense systems that are potential adversaries have. their range of application allows the ship to be at a safe distance from the enemy. western countries did not miss the opportunity to express accusations and criticism against participants in the maneuvers, especially the host country. the ministry of defense of south africa, in response to this confines it's right to build for relations in accordance with its national interests as an independent and sovereign country. on nicholas shanker,

artie devin, south africa will africa is crucial for the future of europe and cannot be left in china as hums. that was the rather pejorative message coming from italy's foreign minister of the munich security conference in a discussion regarding the need for a stronger european presence on the continent. unit is crucial if we want to pay the wave for a stronger europe. among nato ed in europe are more present in africa. look at african to look at africa is crucial for the future. to leave a figure in janice and is a big mistake for everybody here. african chose china as its largest trading partner in foreign direct investor. why is europe trying to drag africa

into it? spat with china as well. they sound upset that the girl thereafter doesn't want to eat at their table in the school cafeteria. maybe she just likes to hang with different groups of people. okay. and what about american bases in 5 african countries? does the italian foreign minister mind that uncle sam's hands are all over africa? or is that no problem? because that's his body. how many times have we heard the west concern trolling africa as in lookout? don't let china just because it's a deck trop. turns out that africa owes 3 times more debt to western private lenders than it does to china. that's according to world bank data. and someone else was back on the scene. evoking is neo colonialist fantasies regarding africa. again, chief, you diplomat, yoseph burrell. i travel around the world and particularly in the countries of the south. i see how powerful is the russian narrative that wants to reduce the war in

ukraine to a conflict between the west and russia. is powerful accusing us of double standard . we must debunk this narrative and explain how rush acts as an imperialist power. president micron referred to a neo colonial power. yes, it is what it is. let's call it by its name. it is an imperial attitude from a powerful neighbour that wants to take control of some country that belongs to its political sphere. big headline in the western press out of munich, screamed quote, western please over ukraine failed to sway global south. maybe the west is not as attractive as they seem to think they are, or maybe they don't understand the mindset of those they're looking to seduce. here's the uganda in an namibian foreign ministers with some tips for the west on why their charm offensive isn't working. we were colonized and forgave those who colonized us. now, the colonizers are asking us to be enemies of russia,

who never colonized us. is that fair? not for us. their enemies are their enemies. our friends are our friends. the bottom line is that money used to buy weapons would be better used to promote development in ukraine, in africa, and asia in the you itself, where many people are facing hardship. pretty sure that none of the self help books on making yourself attractive to others. say to tell them not to watch certain networks like r t to monitor or control who they hang out with, like russia and china, and to treat them like they don't really know how to handle their own affairs. so maybe the west should try getting some perspective o way from their bodies. all these group think driven safe spaces like the munich security conference will african chinese to 1st specialist coffee. kwaku believes europe needs to stop treating africa like it's property. my school was a bit,

they need to wake up to the idea that africans just don't want to do that anymore. they don't want to just on the pedal. they have a great deal of the, like european fine much. but i think it's the government and the leaders been perpetrated system that's not the win win for africans and that my star. so there are other alternatives to be considered. africans have the choice to do so. and to look into these alternative be in russian chinese towards here, or, you know, middle east and saudi or a, the philippines, anybody else who can help them to improve the living conditions on the continent. but he'll, she will welcome and i think you said what else is really not a good position to tell africans by much how to see when to see when to save and then feel like, you know,

africans of cobra. where's our money tortilla is seeking a refund? from the us state department for the money and chris spent on the f 35 fighter jet program on craft fund itself for the night of the project for buying weapons systems from russia. cuts up to the amount of 70 b. let's see. here we were putting this in the f 35 program, but turkey was excluded due to american sanctions. it was a unilateral decision. there is a figure of $1400000000.00 that we've spent waiting for a refund of that money paid. and then this will the multi nation f $35.00 joint strike fighter program originally sought to establish a common platform for us allies in europe, asia, the middle east with a plum to acquire more than $100.00 of the jets were tricky at which was among the members, all that was expelled from the program following its purchase of the russian made s

400 or defense system. well, let's get the thoughts on this now and speak to professor of international law and relations, measured hockey. just sheen, who's also a terrorism at military history. expert many thanks for your time today, sir. so the turkey was frozen out of the s 35 program, but never got its money back. house for is on christ request for a refund. thank you so much. it was every problem about the, the after the wire, even though it's the black generation come with the craft. when i was in a pause, i was responsible to the story about does it come with the account? you emphasize it did 30 of i $100.00 and the l. so plus the $25.00 they come with yet. and even though $37.00 per se, and that the country about this come with the graph however, is you know,

that the seems to be by $400.00 russian me size and they dismiss their, our, this program. and even though we pay $1400000000.00, or it can say no money, no cosmetic, i hope this is a locally, according to international law. and even though many method cancers using this main and russian song, missiles such as they are neighbor, rush degrees and many in their country. and this is a lawful according to intimate. and if they accept it will defeat worship and they find mister child was healed. to emphasize that either you give our committee or the you pay our money. it is norman. yeah. do you think that washington has any intention of giving back the money? ok the this is the american gallery director, right. and he is about the demo chrissy human rights and l. so the equality

between the states and we are the national member birds. the article why thing like this. you have to be a call that the older partnerships and even though thanks with me, said lincoln, and he can't stand gone the life of the turkish people. and he say the assistive friend, danny, allied, the us separate to turkey. and he hopeful there about 16 program to powerful by the recreation, given the sale does come with the cra understanding. he said the turkey secret concerns and he come to the, in the base. he gal together our, the, the minister with the job, if you see which kind of the disaster we have to underline and is that he got, i was just superficial tanks to that is to put in the russian people, even though you suffer in therapy. oh, in l, so the d l, so the hospital, the, your prayer to mean a russian student assisted the go ahead to assistant to the disaster

people their victims. thank you so much to the russian administration. the russian people of course, turkey was kicked out of the of the program for purchasing the russian made s $400.00 or defense system. did. and chris foresee that happening did, they kicks out into the equation. ok. ah, the ah, mr. add on stays. we have, in other options such as the he with it the, the russia hand, we test may no rush and come with a crowd. even those who 35 or in other models and within has given that proposal will be cooperative. and so $57.00 also. mother come at jan. this is our on the table. now we're waiting. what will happen? why?

because of the us from i to us, given the f. 16 come with your graph. and on the other hand, there is the end of their argument. hey, if you want to buy the f 16, you have to fly and the thing them and the l. so the also see the membership in echo and what is the best? there are the he and my idea the for didn't after the 1st they want to understand the 30 last people 50000. we suffer from humanitarian for in the you, off the submit and here at the off the character, not in our agenda. and they have to obey deregulation. the mother is tommy, you show us he why did a fine stop the given the weapons and finance so that there is organization in pick i know propaganda against it. otherwise they may be wait a lot of time. and if you use these vector right, yeah, i get the feeling that washington isn't very numbered with with turkey's independent streak. the i've,

it seems as if washington would rather they just submitted a little bit more to, to america's weapons and got on with it. but, but turkey has been holding tight, they've been standing firm and what they believe is in their agenda. what's good for them? it's been reported the pentagon hudson close the door on turkey a rejoining the program, but only if it reverses its decision on buying the s 400 from russia. what does on career do ok, is this very good question mister talbot, you'll the saying becca is supper to steal prison industry then. and they continued their propaganda came to be joined by pika. 1 sabotaged normal, the forward stamps. second the he said, united states was paid after the fight, the money, but the turnikey over at separate not the unlikely. the projects and so the direct, the most important found an answer all the thanks to the u. s. s. system. eric got

the name of the turkish pill, but we feel the separated $911.00. there is effect in the neo, you remember that turkey soldiers was the side by side, shoulder to shoulder with them. reconciled you and you have any sense. you remember when you're living the american soldiers round off counting on me 30 soldiers, they kept them. and what is. 5 and how can we go ahead. c into a poor cherokee, most important issue brought in at the also the stop on the black, the ongoing warfare between the 2 rather who rush and crane war, read out the elimination these war and honorable and acceptable p and told going on the agenda. we cannot see the net, they'll go ahead forward and turn in system. second the we almost ran like is the conflict. it. she'll be triggering between the 2 and the russia, and you are fear who will be been raised now when state can be,

when are off is kind of the new conflict. so cherokee is, yes, we separate the lot. we know the data. however, in order to looking for article $5610.11, suburban enter pin, and they have to be go home or otherwise 30 bill using the what their rights are. ok, we have about 30 seconds left. but just before we go, can you give us the overall sense of where us turkey relations stand right now? yes, it's very hard question sure. and we can say like this perfect, i'm going between the bite and the address ration and l. so the, the ongoing to turkey and on it being situation with special tanks through the systems for the american government and american people say company is talking is better than the date. the conflict.
