this is a problem that should have been resolved at the negotiating table. brewton owns this war. well, professor captain, i agree with you. 100 percent and owns this war in those and just put in but also russia. we will berry this. 6 we will carry rather this send for years, decades and perhaps even generations to come. this is a huge tragedy for all of us. we all have relatives in ukraine and they cause actually every single day we are, you know, very much connected to that conflict. no illusions about that, but at the end of the day, put in is the president of russia, and he has obligations before russia in defending its strategic security. don't you think again and we keep circling around that question that the west, who have been a little bit more accommodating, if not for the sake of russia, then for the sake of ukraine, in providing russia with the security that it asked for. and what it asked for is simply the guarantees of neutrality and ukraine, not joining any other military alliances. what's the, what's the goal was the purpose of repeating that ukraine can join neithe

longer wanted to be part of a russian sphere of influence that appeared to be intolerable to mr. brewton. he said, as much in his speeches, he said, ukraine is part of russia. ukraine doesn't deserve to exist as an independent state for the sake of china. you are not accurate. he never said about ukraine not deserving to exist as a sovereign state. although he did say that there are many cultural historical ethnic links between our peoples. and he doesn't believe that the russian and ukrainian people historically apart. so one collective. now having said that, i do think that he was afraid of losing ukraine, but on the different ground. because starting in 201314 ukraine was increasingly militarized by various natal members without even assuming nature treaty obligations. don't you think that in and of itself presented a major strategic vulnerability for russia. nato using ukraine, prosecuting essentially ukrainian territory for its own means without even taking the obligations to protected when i comes to shop the world. number one, he did say that ukraine is part of russia, and he, he

what makes us so sure, mr. brewton wouldn't press who's nuclear conflict zone in 30 minutes on d. w. o. a. the return of the spiky yellow with will ensure the survival of the entire ecosystem. success stories from a bastion of biodiversity. saint holy starts may 20th on dw, someone else through the hardwood tb highlights of selected for you every week in your inbox. so describe now closely listen carefully. don't know how with to the goal. ah, feel the magic discover the world around you. subscribe to d w documentary on youtube. a . a with ah, this is dw news coming to life from berlin. you credit reports bloody battles at the as hope steel plant in murray, you pulled hundreds of civilians are believed to still be trapped inside their hopes. now pinned on a new russian promise for a cease fire to allow them to leave maria full safely. also coming up for starters, they did not have a competent campaign plan. they have under and she former u. s. general david portray as talks to the w about to teens war and the state of the russian military. and.

this is a problem that should have been resolved at the negotiating table. brewton owns this war. well, professor captain, i agree with you. 100 percent and owns this war in those and just put in but also russia. we will, berry this. we will carry rather this send for years, decades and perhaps even generations to come. this is a huge tragedy for all of us. we all have relatives in ukraine and they cause actually every single day we are, you know, very much connected to that conflict. no illusions about that. but at the end of the day, put in is the president of russia. and he has obligations before russia in defending its strategic security. don't you think again and we keep circling around that question that the west, who have been a little bit more accommodating, if not for the sake of russia, then for the sake of ukraine, in providing russia with the security that it asked for. and what it asked for is simply the guarantees of neutrality and ukraine, not joining any other military alliances. what's the, what's the goal was the purpose of repeating that ukraine can join neither

it is, it is taken brewton launching an all out war on ukraine for finland to send this message to russia. finally, we should probably go a little bit further. i was for a minister in 2008, the chairman of the a c. and together with french 4 minutes the best not questionnaire. we broker a cease fire in georgia in 5 days. that was the 1st warning signal after that in the speech called 080808. i called for a reassessment to finish nato membership by got a very strong pushback. 2014. i don't think europe and the west reacted strongly enough. but when you go into full scale conventional warfare, when you kill innocent human beings, women and children, that's what people react. and that's where i think booted made a tactical and strategic mistake, which he has not paid for. all right, and then let's look at the russian reaction to this news because we've heard from the russian foreign ministry a saying that finland, joining nato is a radical change in the countries. foreign policy may go on to say, russia will be forced to take retaliate 3 steps, both of a military, technical, and other nature

the enduring legacy of, of very brewton is his maturity and the insistence on russia about it, it in and it hopes others will adhere to the rule of law. um, but it scares right, scott and i'm sorry. does that apply during conditions of war? well, there is no war does the point i'm trying to make, okay, there's a special military operation that's a term used by russia, russia to find this conflict. now russia wants to change the legal foundation of this conflict. the russian needs to declare war against ukraine, right? now vladimir putin specifically called it a special military operation, which means it's not war. it's a war like situation, but it's not war. therefore, all of the contractual obligations that russia has entered into apply, the russia simply get shut off of the the spigot. because then russia would be in violation of its legal obligation, rushes, letting other people violate logo or ocean i. yeah. but scott, i mean let me turn to ali in sydney here. but i mean, the west is breaking the law all the time. seizing assets of individuals without any due process whatsoever.

together and maybe one day we can get back to that, although i don't think it's going to occur while mr. brewton is the president. but i do think that even in the post cold war era, we have seen number one, the united states and nato go into ball into the balkans and stop ethnic conflict there. there hasn't been any bloodshed in that region since the end of the dissolution of yugoslavia. and the united states has in many respects helped to bring down and fight extremism who led the counter. i so campaign, the united states, that's a war that worked at the benefit again, has the united states made mistakes? yes. but has it succeeded in largely taking down the islam of state and al qaeda? yes. has it made the world safer from h sonic extremism? yes, so it's a, it's a mixed picture. but over the course of his history, i think the united states has been on the right side. it's been on the side of democracy and freedom and justice. unfortunately, i cannot say the same thing about russia. we are out of time, let me again express my gratitude for engaging with us in this conversation has been great tal

why would the president brewton change his mind as a result of a phone call? is there any significance to his call? when of course, all i should say is a pretty long history in recent months of trying to communicate with vladimir putin also in the weeks leading up to the war. he was one of the leaders who traits through moscow sat very long table in moscow and tried to communicate with routine, try to dissuade him for from beginning this war. obviously the war is now been underway for a long time. this is the 1st communication that they've had in several weeks. so it's quite striking that this phone could phone call has taken place now and on such a scale, it's 75 minutes. i think, you know, one of the things to stress about this kind of phone call is, is partly about we'll have sholtes getting his message across to vladimir putin trying to display the unity that the west has been so keen to show up with other partners within the west, but also for the germans have, for other people have tried to keep up communication with putin. it's also about the communicat

the enduring legacy of a very brewton is a his maturity and the um, insistence on russia, about it, it in and it hopes others will adhere to the rule of law. um, but it scares rather than worry. scott, and i'm sorry, does that apply during conditions of war? well, there is no war does. the point i'm trying to make, okay, there's a special military operation that's a term used by russia. russia defined this conflict. now russia wants to change the legal foundation of this conflict in russian needs to declare war against ukraine. right now vladimir putin specifically called it a special military operation, which means it's not war. it's a war like situation, but it's not war. therefore, all of the contractual obligations that russia has entered into apply, the russia simply now shut off of the the spigot because then russia would be in violation of its legal obligation, rushes, letting other people violate logo or ocean i. yeah, it's gotten, i mean, let me turn to, i'll in sidney here, but i mean, the west is breaking the law all the time. seizing assets of individuals without any due pr

i've been in my position for the 31 years, and i've never seen such an event at brewton and crew unlike what happened on friday. but talk as through what happened on friday. they is ready, police have said that the family asked the police to into we in the family and to police. we as a hospital, we were very concerned about letting the funeral go to the our own. we didn't have any other role and i'm not aware of any other communication that took place between the family and the police. you've issued us a condemnation of these radio police actions, but is it going to go further? what's the status with the legal. busy administration out of the hospital, represented by his jacket to get your msr visa by law. we're considering taking legal action against the police for that it brutal attack of the house at the hospital. and with no reason, we were witnesses and we have videos that show nothing. attack was from our side or from the hospital or from day a funeral participants. our the police, the intention was not to allow the day coven to go outside with people. this was the attack them agai

and he's promising to push on with the invasion without calling it an invasion. brewton spoke to day it moscow's annual victory day parade, which celebrates the $945.00 defeat of nazi germany. the russian leader made a series of false claims about the war, including allegation that western countries provoked this year's attack on ukraine . year after year, the same ceremony, the russian defense minister and took military bras, come out to inspire their troops. there were plenty of uniforms. even among the general public, the soviet victory day is one of russia's most important public holidays. but this is event didn't just celebrate victory of nazi germany. but the war and ukraine as well. it wasn't, it was today, you are defending what our grandfathers and great grandfathers fought for, that the most important thing in their lives was the prosperity and security they hung lat, gloria to a heroic military law, russia living, run them, seal m. as that i c u z by b a do. laura? $11000.00 soldiers, many of whom have reportedly already served in the don bass region. and lots of military

but now she says, an oil embargo would only benefit president brewton. so today we will propose to ban all russian oil from europe. this will be if we would completely cut immediately as of today, off the oil. he might be able to take the oil that he does not sell to the european union to the world market, where the prices will increase and sell it for more to west is getting more desperate. i think they see russia winning this war in eastern ukraine. so far, the economic sanctions against russia have not hurt russia. in fact, the rubel is now record highs. meanwhile, seems like the sanctions of backfired on the west. i don't see how europe can refuse russian oil. i mean, maybe they could try to be less dependent on it, but the fact is it's the closest oil supply. so this is an insane move by europe if they do this. and i think a lot of leaders there in the population know it. i think they know that their political future is probably on the line, but again, whether they will follow what they know is uncertain. the far reaching effect of western sanctions

so in a way that i haven't found anywhere else is edison brewton. i'm a fan. and yet, and took you to albert in 2015. i started working in tokyo, are done and was invited to some pretty amazing clubs. there aguilar gordon. but the spinning of the wow, this is just so perfect. it's something i've only ever had a bare kind. and good, calm would often bow his disconnect has been mixed. there is just right back. somebody knew exactly what they were doing. i am the human can over so was i'm a their coin has its roots in the berlin, techno and gay scene of the ninety's back then caught osgood. the impressive buildings stood between empty factory holes on old railway tracks. are con, opened its gates in 2004. since the beginning, the rule has been what happens in bel kind stays in burger photos and video recordings of the clubs interior were and remained still to day forbidden. as, as e r, that is long and it was due so that it has the kind of dark atmosphere. and of course, it's a club where people have sex often publicly. that's cool, many people. but for some, it'
