in the early eighties, the head of the criminal investigation department of the central internal affairs directoratef the volgograd region of the regiment? gennady was visibly nervous, looking around looking for something. the operatives listened to where the bandits were hiding, was the boy with them? without argument, he bent down, suddenly there was a sound of breaking glass; a man held a bottle with a broken bottom and aimed the fragments at his neck. the reaction of the operatives was instantaneous on the face, tears ran down gennady. a second later it became clear what pushed him to the impulsive act of the gaspars showed the detectives the note. drive 150 thousand for a living son or we will send the head separately said after a long silence the kidnappers called. they named the meeting place and a specific grave. the father found the note under the mourning wreath. i read it and the letters jumped before my eyes. even 50,000 is a lot of money, but unknown reminded, we need three times as much. so, vanya cannot be saved. the man lost his nerve. the detectives guessed the call to the cemetery

participated in the organization of the assassination of the minister of internal affairs of poland would bring a pirate and directore ukrainian academic gymnasium ivan babiy. he also organized the bombing of the newspaper partia. thus , bandera brought closer the independence of ukraine on january 13, 1936. after an accidental raid, bandera was caught and, together with an accomplice , was sentenced to hanging for killing a pirate. however, alas. replaced the death penalty on life conclusion. in the far far away year, the polish statehood was liquidated, the jailer fled and bandera was released. he returned to lviv, but the city had already become part of the soviet union and bandera fled to the territories controlled by the nazis, where he continued to build his career. bandera split, and he from the inside, and then headed at the initiative of the german foreign ministry. bandera was supposed to form an insurgent army on the basis of the ukrainian nationalist detachments under his control at the beginning of the forty-first year. as part of a sabotage adweber, brandenburg, 800 units were created a punitive battal

. >>> we have the program director of the german international affairs think tank. she joins us from berlin. we heard from the head of nato yesterday describing the challenges of getting involved, more involved militarily because it will set off a wider conflict. so they are very much focusing on sanctions. where do you expect those sanctions to appear next? >> we will see the european union going down the energy sanctions and the important part of the eu proposal now to start with coal sanctions is not that coal sanctions are actually that significant but that it is the first step to further energy sanctions on russia. the problem is that especially in germany the time lines now announced for a phasing out of russian oil and gas don't move on the time line that ukraine has. ukraine's time lines are weeks. germany's time lines are phasing out oil and gas now until 2024 for russian gas. so there we need to speed up, to make the energy sanctions which really puts pressure on moscow and to improve ukraine's fighting position. >> but german politicians are going to grap

tonight with the context, nathalie tocci — director of italy's institute of international affairs & then strategist doug h. hello, the guiding principle of borisjohnson�*s long political career — a principle it seems he shared with donald trump — was "never to apologise, never explain". but in recent weeks the prime minister has been forced into all manner of explanations, and a series of scripted apologies to the house for breaching the very covid regulations he had set for the rest of us. today mrjohnson was at it again, a first opportunity since the easter recess, to address the commons, and apologise "unreservedly" for penalty notice he was handed last week by the metropolitan police. a fine he has since paid. but the outstanding question remains, whether mrjohnson intentionally misled the house, when he advised them there had been no parties in number ten, and whether this latest apology settles the score, with his restive backbenchers. let me also say, not by way of mitigation or excuse... groaning. ..but purely because it explains my previous words in this house, that it did not

he is director of the institute for international studies at stanford and an nbc news international affairs analyst. also joining us, former u.s. ambassador to ukraine, john herbst. he's now senior director of the atlantic council's eurasia center. ambassador mcfirst of all, i'll start with you and with the people trapped in the steel plant in bucha. no hope? i'm sorry. in mariupol. >> well, it looks pretty dire, but it's amaing how they've been fighting. i heard weeks ago that mariupol was supposed to fall. we kept hearing reports that it was and it hasn't. i'm gotting to to pretend i know how to predict the outcome, but i am amazed that they are still holding on as long as they have. >> so let's talk about the russian troops, and if you could, tell us the challenges that they appear to still be facing, ambassador mcfaul. we heard they were going to sweep into the donbas region. it just is not happening yet. obviously, there's a lot of mass there. but that's what we heard before they went into kyiv or were supposed to get into kyiv in a couple days. they never got there. what are the prosp

international affairs calls for reflection. what is the increase in pressure on the nuclear superpower, and the former director of the famous lamose hair labs, zikrit hecker, is in a very gloomy mood after everything that has happened in recent months, the entire world's nuclear order is in jeopardy. he must be saved. as for the role of nuclear weapons in the strategic calculations of their owners, let's talk about the remarkable specialist, our interlocutor dmitry, mechvich. at what point did nuclear weapons cease to be considered as a means of warfare, it turned into a method of deterrence, that is, something not for use, and in fact, is it possible to reverse the perception of it as simply very powerful type of weapons in the fifties, when nuclear weapons began to enter the troops. it was considered. as a means of warfare . it went on practically. uh, well, until the sixties early seventies. military academies still, uh, studied the properties of nuclear weapons, like, well, like any other weapon, they built military strategies, taking into account the fact that the war will be waged with the use of nuclear weapons, actually. e

director of the concern. igor klimov was shot dead in the summer of 2003 at the pit literally a stone's throw from the building of the ministry of internal affairsf russia. in general, it is significant that less than a day after the execution, they began to restore production, clear the rubble, repair old buildings, build new ones and buy. modern machine tools equipment due to the fact that the state built a new modern workshop through the knee of the plant and now at x installations per month the installation is set up using weight and size models. still, it protects the sky above us, without it they will be able to run combine harvesters and dump trucks. in 2015, diamond from the air defense concern renames tanya the newest mudrel missile defense system. what exactly shot down the satellite in the concern, they say our products are evasive yes, but no more, and i can say. generally some kind of trepidation of rudeness before hypersound. we do not test, but our system is the next generation, in fact, hypersound can be taken at all. the heights of its use are very good, but so far they have not reached the characteristics that we have to test a

director of the ron pol, institute for peace and prosperity. and in london, we have marco gassett. he is international affairs commentator or a gentleman, cross stock rules and effect. that means he can jump in any time he want. and i will appreciate, daniel, let me go to you 1st in lake jackson. my question in my introduction is very, very simple. what is washington's goals in this conflict here? because this massive a sending of arms to ukraine, which nobody knows where it goes to out who's the end user, or if it's going to be sold on the black market. one, the problems with western coverage of this conflict is that ukraine is notorious for its corruption. i mean, it makes a corruption in russia blush. i can guarantee you that. so what is washington's goals here? because it seems to me that they're calling the shots. not mr. zalinski go ahead, daniel. it seems to me, this is the most incompetent handling damage of foreign affairs issue in the history of the world. i don't believe that washington has a clue what it's doing. the only thing that's driving the.

director of the ron paul institute for peace and prosperity. and in london, we have marco gassett. he is international affairs commentator or a gentleman cross stock rolls in effect. that means he can jump in tommy want, and i always appreciate, daniel, let me go to you 1st and lake jackson. my question in my introduction is very, very simple. what is washington's goals in this conflict here? because there's massive um, sending of arms to ukraine, which nobody knows where it goes to out who's the end user. if it's going to be sold on the black market. one of the problems with western coverage of this conflict is that ukraine is notorious for its corruption. i mean, it makes a corruption in russia blush. i can guarantee you that. so what is washington's goals here? because it seems to me that they're calling the shots. not mr. zalinski. go ahead. daniel. it seems to me, this is the most incompetent handling damage of foreign affairs issue in the history of the world. i don't believe that washington has a clue what it's doing. the only thing that's driving the policy right now was the military industrial comple

let's bring in michael mcfaul, director of the institute for international studies at stanford and an nbc international affairs analyst and also with us money american hero, retired army four star general barry mccaffrey, an nbc news military analyst. general, let's begin with you. let's talk about the aid package and how it changes the realities on the ground between ukrainian forces and russia? >> well toss two things. not just a continuity of the biden administration which will provide resources for about another five months. but also the conference that secretary lloyd austin pulled together in europe with 41 some odd nations. so if the ukrainians can absorb and put into action the military and humanitarian aid that is headed their way, you could argue we're going to approach near parity in ground combat power. russias still have an overwhelming advantage in the air. given ukrainian leadership and courage and the tenacity of which they've opened this battle, this is good news and desperate situation for the russians. combined with these economic sanctions. so i think we're moving in the right direction. >>

joining me right now is the former senior director of international economic affairs at the reagan nationalsecurity review commission. thank you for being here. so much to discuss with you. i want to talk about capital markets can and the chinese stocks that are still trading in the united states despite any issues around china but first let me start with this lockdown. i'm wondering if hong kong is going to be next, if we are going to see this shutdown move into hong kong the way we saw it happen in shanghai. what are the implications of 26 million people locked down right now in terms of the global reach and the impact across the world? >> well, the impact on hong kong, maria, has already been quite profound in the sense that they're damaging the reputation of that financial hub, globally. everyone is trying to -- many folks are trying to flee the situation in hong kong. they have already taken draconian measures but, again, there's a limit to how far they can go there. it doesn't seem to be the case with shanghai. i mean, what's next? you're going to deploy that vast army of covid police
