so let's bring an out diplomatic editor james bay's, who's at un headquarters in york. james l. firstly, start with the start of his speech where he was addressing what he's described as mid dabble standards on the west. what was he referring to one of the context of those remarks? well, the remarks i think were on the basic heading of human rights. and i think he knows he's under some pressure at the moment. there are some protest as in new york in recent hours. why don't think reflect opinion necessarily in iran, but they're also more worryingly for the rain in government are protested. have been taking place in to ron, following the death of a 22 year old woman who reportedly was beaten to death by the authorities. he simply didn't address that. of course, of course, that specific incident, but talked about human rights talks about the double standards of the west, raising things like her native tribes and canada and the rights of the palestinians . i think that was his comment on human rights and his response to some of the claims that have been made without specific

earlier i'll diplomat again it's james bay spoke to the u. s. ambassador to the un when the thomas greenfield said sup to russia, if at once meaningful dialogue over your crime. but the ukrainians have never turned their backs on diplomacy. but they have to defend themselves. the russians made a decision that they would prefer war over peace over diplomacy. so if there are discussions taking place between the 2 of them this week, we encourage that. but we know that until russia takes its troops out of ukraine, it's going to be very difficult to have meaningful diplomacy with them. as you know, russia is on the back foot. militarily the talk now is russia's next tactic, which may be referenda in lieu hans and doormats. what would the u. s. his reaction if they tried to amex that territory as they did in 2014 with crimea, they will not be recognized by anyone in the international community. they were not recognized in 2014 and it will not be recognized at this time around. it is illegal annexation of another countries territory. while the globa
