sprinting across every open space. we are the 1st team of john list to access and film these positions to proceed from here. the enemies no more than 400 meters away. finches with edges once as tool as an adult man have hopelessly crumbled. nature weapons scheduling around us, along with the bodies of ukrainian troops, abandoned by fleeing comb rates. the titles of receiving your good isn't and in the american launch of the mines that it passed, and by fast on the way here they are. all nathan made there, there is a skeleton, the bones and little bit higher there with these one in the dark. another ukrainian cluster munitions bones through the sky towards neighboring positions, a new day rolls on, revealing the harrowing scale of devastation. so just a couple of words about the density of the sizing here. and really,
5:09 am
the landscape speaks for itself. you can see the trees or rather what's the left of them all around. this used to be a very sick pine forest. you wouldn't tell. right now. the treetops have been shaven off by the hail of trap pro from pretty much every around imaginable. artillery will hold calibus tanks pretty much every heavy weapon that you can imagine will most. they fight at this position. there's drones shortage short a few weeks ago provides a smooth glimpse into how for wash just leave this chrome hold had been smashed for months, leaving nothing but scorched and black and free stumps by driving cubic foot poseida. here, russian forces have aged, closer to several enemies, key logistical points,

details. it's only recently that finland lost his neutrality and friendly diplomatic relations with moscow. bobs. as it turns out, it was never really that friendly to begin with. according to the f as b, it's been trying to interfere in rough as internal affairs for quite some time, which is an interesting development. considering that finland shares a huge border with russia out over a 1000 kilometers with about 10 check points, which was fine for decades. as i've enjoyed a great relationship box, things have changed. it seems as well and has become increasingly and sorry russian . and so for everyone this spring, when the decided to join nato fears but coming rushes next, target pushed feeling to seek membership to the north atlantic. treaty organization more commonly known as nato b crane spent years trying to get what finland and sweden seemed to be vying for. now. nato membership to protect itself in
5:12 am
a case of russian incursions. it also shows you how much it was created in finland as well, by virtue of that very, very long board with russia. and they saw what was happening in ukraine room, remembering just not long before russia and faded ukraine for ross. and so this act as a central fear mongering as ludicrous consider in finland wouldn't even be solver. and today had it not being for vladimir lennon, who formerly recognized its independence in 1917. it was part of sweden for hundreds of years before becoming part of the russian empire and under russian rule . it was the grand duchy of finland, with its own laws, currency, police, customs, and culture, after land and agreed to let them go their own way. a civil war followed where germany and the soviet union got involved spots. finally, in 1948 villains, and the usaa saw signed an agreement of friendship, corporation and mutual assistance. promising to defend each other against external
5:13 am
threats as a promise. helsinki caps route, the cold war for decades, phrase relations between finland and russia had been doing very well. in fact, in the year leading up to the ukraine calls like russia exported nearly $9000000000.00 in goods to sell and well imports in under a half of that amount from its northern neighbor. helsinki also relied on russian power supplies and most of its gasoline. the military operation began, and it all stopped. the spanish side has unilaterally curved sailed old wine cross border cooperation programs, as well as the landmarks joint project to build a nuclear power plant in spelling it also by for this companies to exit. there are some markets out of about $900.00 finish companies specializing and construction, timber processing, food industry, and industrial production. only about a $150.00 it have reportedly stayed in russia and even they don't advertise or

tibbetts ease, searing european sanctions so much fornia trial. etsy, but that's what you get when you're part of the you have enough to follow someone else has policies sometimes at your own detriment. as regard sanctions, not a single finish company is doing business in russia anymore. we're one of the few countries who did this regrettably, this did not prove to be an effective tool against russia. the west believed sanctions would result in the collapse of the russian economy. there were those who believe this would happen within 6 months. this was a miscalculation the sections had an impact, but not on the scale we imagined. greenland relies totally on russian trade. there is natural, neighborly, relation between russian, unfinished standing for hundreds of years of freelance has for to cope with the russians. and russians has to learn to cope with trees in very difficult times as well feel and has joined a very good position of for me,
5:15 am
the many reasons and of these past 2 years as being just a cat. this through a freedom with these being in a very deep depression of the economic news pops a little bit 100 percent minus. we can say that feeling is heading to bankruptcy because losing the russian markets and russian trade and all the benefits, what the russian food full for for fitness market. so situation is very green, 17 and very unfortunate. finland this now harboring over a 1000 rough and select the country, including members of the opposition. and it has also implements of severe travel restrictions on rough and sores with their prime minister states. and that it is not rights that while a rough sized wage in an aggressive, brutal war of aggression in europe, russians could live a normal life travel and you are the tourist. those were her words spill,
5:16 am
as you move was standing synergy, conflict and anti russian policy is being pursued by the finish authorities and a move to dismantle a relationship of mutually beneficial cooperation between russia and finland that has been built over decades to separate diverse trade economic and interregional ties and direct contacts between people. craftsman and the situation only got worse this summer as helsinki expelled 9 russian diplomats from the country, accusing them of spine. and then russia. zip the same was 9 spanish diplomats defend as president. then cried spouse saying that it's a horse and a symmetrical response and announced that they would close the russian conflict and circle russell followed suit with the finish conflict in saint petersburg box. all excellent, russia has proved that not only has the finish security intelligence service, a k, a. so po, been actively trying to recruit russian citizens and allowing the western agents to do the same. but their officials have been trying to dave,
5:17 am
how big the opposition is in russia, according to russia's federal, superior to service defense of setup ears in various establishments surrounding the russian embassy in helsinki, 1st would receive the modem. the russian security service is established at the finish security police, coal super, which is closely monitoring the majority of the employees of the russian federation embassy, and representative offices. unhealthy preserves super is resorting to open externals available as well as an agency presence at the professional and recreational i to department. everyone knows that in addition to carrying out their official g t's in their 1st countries, these official representatives like old people who go to the head dresses as well as pharmacies shops and workshops, i suppose actively monitoring these places. we can diplomatic and support staff visitors. they then proceed to recruit the russian speaking staff who work. but these include has oems, such as my color with a russian speaking finish to address a cool lot of work can occur with head dressing. you let the crating of,
5:18 am
of what these employees hand over all the information gathered on russian embassy person. the whole super, all these 3 agents from the frontier security intelligence service have been singled out for recruiting russian citizens. this one was right here, for example, this is a rush that's 26 times since 1996. only 4 of those fits were through diplomatic channels. his mission to gather information about, suppose the russian activities against finland. and so extract information about russian law enforcement employees. now these are just some of the russian citizens that they are set to have recruited. well, that's fine, right here, code named only. here's the director of a travel form in helsinki, which offers free services to russian diplomats. and he was also the director of a russian stave company dealing with property management in finland for 2 years. in 2014, he was questions of the russian embassy in helsinki. in collections of the legal expropriation of real estate there he has
5:19 am
a travel to ross's same spot. he has apparently been passing lots of information about various russian citizens diplomats and criminals, and he was passing information. so this 9 right here, mr. hud call, who has been retired since 2015, but maintain his russian palm sized. carla would then pass this in so, so the active agents from the finished security intelligence service. and it was things to all his info that the fence managed to recruit another man, not mine is alexander and cannot see if he is the head of a travel company in moscow, specializing in stores in scandinavia. and he also has a russian visa sensor in the house, and he also offering free services through russian diplomats. and he is the one who actually help cmo vault. and then right here obtained a russian visa on numerous occasions. quite a transformation for a guy who's surface son since in russia, in the ninety's for drug crimes. recently,

5:24 am
or what is the federal security service of the russian federation has records of repeated attempts made by representatives of various secret service agencies need 2 countries to establish contact with russian citizens. for example, in 2022, catherine evans, the 1st secretary of the political department of the british embassy in helsinki and a staff member of m, i. 6, met a russian citizen who at the time was an employee of the russian trade representation. afterwards she kept stoking him incessantly and following him around and her corporate vehicle. i met her accidentally at the spa. it was winter and it was snowing. not sure if i was given this boss as difficult as depressing or both of myself, but i went back. i ran into high and the changing, grew assuming that she was small to the me, i knew who i was. she decided to wait for me in the common area. i arrived in my diplomatic call, i'm parked in the dissipated area. she asked me where i was from,

5:28 am
5:29 am
the same i have all this goes to so that even though finland technically lost as neutrality this year, it was actually never really that neutral and far more aligned with the west, even allowing their agents to work against russia on their soil. so it's hardly surprising that they joined nato in a heartbeat and started spewing out conspiracy theories about russel planning to invade another pace of the pups calling the kettle black. all for now, but coming up in indian i'm he discusses the countries growing ties to the us as anti china lions. yeah. having break summit add more. i'm going underground. don't go far. the, as the prince much more provide the counsellor offensive stalls. western leaders
