let us in here nick, good seymour on this from t w little correspondent to benjamin alvaros group of welcome benjamin. so why this apparent snap for the german president? so this comes exactly due to this close. now this frankly, franklin stein maya has back to the time when he was germany is foreign minister held a very close relationship to this russian counterpart there. j lover of also a really good relation to now for my chance, the gach florida, who's links to russia to the kremlin well known. and he goes even further to that because a stand may had repeatedly, also defended the controversial gas pipeline notes dream to and many see him is one of the architects of germany's russia friendly relationship of trying to build the bridges. as you mentioned, stan maria, and last week apologized saying that germany should have taken a more cautious approach when it comes to russia. but of course, this was also shocking for many that he will not be able to go to ukraine as it was planned. that according to the a media reports by german tabloid. it. ok, so that's the german present. mean

so nick, i wish to do t shirts. i'm gonna go to just arlin up with you want to get a few spacious tim banging years the lives up on may and it was pushed. nancy, are they any effects of foreign processes sponsorship or other foreign participation in orange? evolution never was custom worship gesture with a bunch of agreement to sit on for sources or start over process those up on an extra machine is with a process. i'm not sure, but i did that form when submitted rules. oh yes. when you, which was because of the nas lewis had just been in the who would you publish? no, this would be more or less or would you did? she wasn't a jew tissue, chipotle who you are. i knew more to learn that order. ship, mcdonald, nato. we'd love to miss me unless boss moolah did miss me, and they loved the, the queer little fellow, him sure went remodeler of know what i knew that he put away the kiss. equipped with no more unsure towards her. oh whoa dish, these pun gunman, laska he would last. castillo's misses, mute. dumas from them. dr

nick, the new commission president and the blocks top diplomat, are planning to meet with ukraine's present in t uh today. what quick specter were overseas for the ukranian side. this is about the optics is about europe showing that it cares about ukraine, that europe also believes in ukraine's ability to stand up for itself and to not basically a fall apart under this russian pressure. i think generally it's all about the weapons right now. it's all about the money and yes, but standards of the you and individual european countries, they are doing a lot more than they have done in previous years. but compared to the billions and billions of billions of euros that are being transferred to russia every day for energy, the sums are all pretty small and the crane is going to put more pressure on their guess. show them more of what's happening here in hope of seeing a significant increase to that support and fast because the big thing you hear here, time and time again from ukrainian government officials, you might, you know, make some plans to help us. but given how bureaucratic, how slow you are,

if nick, you k prime minister bar is johnson there in t if to me, to, with the ukranian precedent. what should we make of this gesture? this is yet another show support for ukraine's democratically elected president pulled him zalinski yesterday. we had ursula from the line. the prisoners here been commissioned in town and i think definitely bristles will not be the last western leader here in kia, visiting. i think the example of a flimsy can not leaving here when he had an option to do so. basically telling the americans that he needed munitions alms and not a ride. i think that is something that has captured imaginations in lots of places and more specifically for boys johnson who was based grappling on for his political survival over scandals related to her violations of crook covered rules. basically the war here and ukraine has to factor saved his political career and his premise ship. so more than one reason to be grateful to a zalinski for her holding up the flag here in ukraine and keeping ukraine together and of see the u. k has done a lot to supply weapons to ukraine whe

t as in their eyes. this is a long and dangerous johnny said it is of the nightmare of maria pull is over for these families, but the civilians are still trapped. there are correspond. nick connelly is in the ukrainian capital, kia nick, can you tell us why humanitarian convoys have not been allowed into mario poll? why, it's hard to really understand how that can even be possible. we've heard in recent days from ukraine's present believe mr. lenny can an interview to a turkish or media house. he suggested that the russian side just didn't have an interest in letting outsiders get close to my uncle to see those images of humanitarian catastrophe of huge civilian casualties of total destruction of residential areas. that was his take on this, but this a fortune has been the picture all the way through this war. am all those attempts to create magic cardoso most the time failing a lots of finger pointing lots of attempts, scratch and presses funds and then when it's meant to happen, the shelling starts again of what she that is not also not only restricted to miracle is something we've seen across the country a basically civilians often cut off from supplies while the figh

nick over what the block said is quote, systematic information manipulation about russia's military offensive in ukraine. your book, knowledge, gay, serbian american journalist and senior writer at r t says the latest move by montenegro once again testifies to the use censorship of opposing viewpoints. you really have to look which governments are enforcing they're the officially stated principles and which ones are using just power for power sake. obviously that you doesn't believe it's on principles, but only power. it's sending a message to the world that they don't care for any sort of points of view that are not officially approved for brussels. and that's pretty chilling. all of these states that are, are rushing to become independent since 990 have basically just traded their nominal independence for being a vassal of the u. s. so it's not really about independence. it's about changing masters by doing this. they're spitting on themselves and their own identity and their own history. i don't expect it to be very profitable. i mean, obviously, yes, the european union will say, you know, good boy and pet them on the, on the, on the head for this. but i don't necessarily believe

c t mayor prior to that way, he happily announced that the russians, the russian, all, cooper says he called them had done so it, it reminds us about boucher. yeah, it's like the tactics attack. nick is a very, it's very similar and interesting is that the following butcher, before any independent investigation, the west decided to support key. and they were several packages of economic sanctions against russia. again, before any investigation. and shortly after butcher ukraine started asking for more weapons for ukraine and interesting is that some of these requests were satisfied and now we did not hear about butcher any more. but we start receiving some evidence saying that it could have been the whole thing, a face just like rushes defense ministry sets. for example, here is one of the refugees that now is in europe. and he told us that he was pushed to tell some lies about bad russians in butcher. let's take a listen. the films almost were 1st, one man came up to me, then another joined him. they asked where i was coming from, and if i was a refugee, i replied that i was from key. if they said they had offers regarding germany, switzerland, spain, and so on, that i could go t

t . he was telling putin your army is responsible. you're responsible. we will continue to put sanctions on you. you need to stop the war and pull your tools out. >> thank you, nick not engaged in active reparations to reopen the u.s. embassy in kyiv despite the uk's announcement they will reopen theirs next week. state department officials are concerned about the possibility of russian strike that could hit the u.s. structure or u.s. personnel. the department is constantly assessing the situation on the ground. that's where we hear from the state department. let's bring in former u.s. ambassador to ukraine. let's start with the roping of the embassy. i know you have said there should be a return of american dip emplomats to kyiv. is there another consideration beyond security. the officials in portugal and italy and france and georgia and the long list, they are obviously concerned about security and think it's fine. what else is the u.s. considering? >> i think this is all about security or safety. american national demand u.s. embassy be in kyiv and it's strange that we have a variety of european countries going back with their embassies and we're not. we need
