it's this idea of humanitarian corridors and theyjust seem to be failing at this moment, don't they?s something has been agreed, some tacit agreement on both sides that never mind the combat, theissues sides that never mind the combat, the issues of combat, these are human people that do not need to be sacrificed. but not so much. it seems that in fact, it looks like a horrible trick. perhaps itjust ended up turning into that, we'll never know. and it's is the complete abuse of protocols than we think exists in wars as well as peace. but landscape crossed all the times and just to see them cross the line of invasion ii just to see them cross the line of invasion 11 days ago, is a particularly horrible because it brings to mind but it must feel like to be panicking and leaving their homes, but the idea that you then step i gingerly thinking right, i'm going to cross this area and go wherever i'm going in the you don't get there because somebody did follow the agreement is just horrendous. and i applaud emmanuel macron for getting on the phone and being able to continue to keep those l

russian oil at possibly a massive discount because western nations are refusing to take it, but are theyjustng the legs out from the western sanctions? i think that we see a lot of russian oil, in the tankards, ——tankers — they are looking for buyers around the world. because even though they will not be sanctioned directly by the us or europe orjapan and other countries, there is a worry from the buyers that they might have financial troubles from the western financial institutions. as a result, they are discounting the price of oil and i would not be surprised that this country would make use of that. having said that, one has to be careful. to pay for those barrels might have two implications, one for the buyers, there is a certain financial transaction here and some grey areas — which part goes to the sanctions, which doesn't? and second, every single dollar going to russian oil goes to the russian economy and will go back as a tank or as a bullet in ukraine. we must not forget that. the us has been pushing for more supplies from nations like venezuela and quite possibly iran. not exactl

it's a bad dream that people woke up to on thursday morning and theyjust can't wake up.f ukraine, and since, western intelligence has been amazingly accurate in its forecasts of what russia would do. how did it manage this? i turned to gordon carrera, the bbc�*s security correspondent. it's astounding how accurate it was and also how public they made it, which is very unusual. how did they get it? there are a couple of possibilities. one is that they've got some agents inside the russian military or the kremlin, people who have access to the plans. people, human agents, that would be run by mi6 or the cia. the other option is, if you like, the electronic signals world. so, the west invests a huge amount in the big collection bureaucracies of gchq and america's nsa, which suck up signals and intercept communications from russia. and it's possible either through, say, cyber espionage, hacking into the russian military�*s own internal systems, or through intercepting their communications, they've got the plans. but of course, as you say, the possibility exists that somebody
