u. k. and germany in the brakes on a gas line project. western nations acting against russia over the ukraine crisis. multilateralism lies on its death bed to night. and we'll show you how it's not just western nations condemning russia's actions and demanding restraint. ah, so much global reaction and condemnation after russia's moves against ukraine, its latest moves. the russian president vladimir putin is pressing a head. he says he respects the sovereignty of all ex soviet states. but he said you kind different because of interference from other countries. that's prompted a shop response from the west. germany, for example, it's but it's gas pipeline project with russia on hold. and the u. k is announced sanctions against 5 russian banks and 3 individuals all sparked by russia, recognizing the disputed, easton ukrainian regents as being in de but in my opinion, also ordered troops into le ganske and donates for what he describes as a peacekeeping operation. these regions encompass what we know as don bus, where separatists have been fighting ukrainian forces since 2014 k. let's get start

u. k. and germany as export destination has actually china, which is now a top importer of russian goods. at the same time, beijing is moscow's top supplier of import. and the 2 countries have both found themselves facing increased pressure from the west to joining us now to discuss all the way this is, professor richard will post of the economic update and author of the thickness is the system. now, professor, when it comes to the u. s, the e u and the u. k, they all seem to be trying to flex their power with sanction. that aim to cut off russian officials and companies from their access to us dollar transactions or even global trade markets. but are they likely to have much of an effect given that russia has spent years working to protect itself from actions just like bes, as we understood back when these sanctions began. and i'm thinking of only as far back as the 19 ninety's because it's been going on almost continuously since then. the answer to your really good question is an unambiguous. no. did russia withdraw from the crimea after 2014, when big sanctions were levied? know that th

you this quote from russia's ambassador to the us responding to new sanctions from the e, u, u k, u s. and germany. he said, it is hard to imagine that there is a person in washington who expects russia to revise its foreign policy under a threat of restrictions. jeffrey edmonds have economic sanctions ever managed to stop an imminent military offensive. i don't think so, and they certainly will not stop russia at this point. in many ways the russians have lost the causal connection between sanctions, any kind of change in behavior. they think me, for example, if you're going to the person one, the sanctions, they have to understand, they have a choice, the russians think, where does union sanctions to weaken them? and also this is a core issue for, couldn't there's a legacy issue here. and so, and they also have, i think, a, a overly optimistic view of how well rushing the russian economy, which is kind of a war footing right now, how well it can survive section. so i don't think this is going to stop him role. in fact, china is a foreign ministry recently pointed out that since 2011, the u. s. i

germany. very good question. there been on preston detention between berlin and kevin recent weeks over german's refusal. firstly to a supply defense weapons, something that the u. k. the u. s. baltic countries and poland have done for ukraine. germany saying that it doesn't want to supply weapons to a conflict zone or potential conflict zone, something the ukrainian se doesn't really stack up. if you look at germany's willingness to send weapon, say to the iraqi kurds, then there's no stream to the gas pipeline taking gas direct from rusty germany, bypassing ukraine, allowing ukraine says the kremlin to send its gas to europe without having to use the ukrainian gas pipeline network allowing russia to destabilize ukraine without any threats of economic damage to russia's exports. so there's lots of potential there for conflict. and miss disagreement, i think there is going to be a concerted effort now on the part of berlin and concerts to try and convince ukraine that germany's were law bought in germany does have ukraine's interests at heart. and that germany can provide a constructive role in mediating to try and just just let the situation nick connelly reporti

germany. the u. k. u ukraine crisis is dominating the munich security conference, germany and the us have called for solidarity and the face of russian demands. moscow has sent no official delegation. it was last absent in 1991. this scheme, which of course is a lot a show of unity right from the start german foreign minister, and alina babble and her u. s. counterpart, antonio lincoln took to the states together, setting the tone for the 3 day conference to hide her does listen, is what i decided brought with a new war impending right in the middle of europe was then speaking with i'm russia issues and absolutely unacceptable. threat with their troops build up. i don't quite, you know, the ukraine about, but also via the all of us and our piece architecture in europe. these, the keys is as therefore this crisis is no ukraine crisis. we have to be very careful about our framing. it's a russia crisis or slang cheese. i think present hooton's been a little bit surprised at that solidarity at the way that nato has come together. the european union has come together. ah, we come together individually as partners w

and national interest. where your current president has been holding talk to the leaders of america, the u. k. germany and others of him is the landscape urging them to form an anti putin coalition and impose the toughest possible sanctions or even asking for russia to be cut off from the entire global economy. could they also cut off russia from that have the international payment system. swift? well, nato held in emergency session earlier in the day, pledging to bolster its eastern european defenses. however, yet installed in bug did say they would not be sending nato troops to ukraine. well, let's cross life to berlin right now on his policy. joining us for the very latest on this. can you break down the reactions now from western leaders? it's all coming out every hour on the hour. well, that's certainly true every hour. there's a new reaction, as you correctly said, we did hear from the nato secretary general in stoughton, but he also met with the european commission, leda le funder lion. and she said that sanctions will support russia's economic growth. they will increase the borrowing costs, th

u. k. and now, of course, we see many more including germany. and that says to me that this intelligence is very credible that the u. s. was able to share with allies exactly what it was that was leading them to believe that indeed an invasion could be imminent. and we just saw, of course, her, the nato secretary general, and that report welcoming american troops to romania, tomatoes, rushing up its military posture in the allied countries that the border ukraine. how much of a concern is that any russian military action could spread beyond ukraine's borders? one key factor is.

and to force the confrontation. i think clearly frowns in germany, don't want it. but the question is then will they have will to overcome the u. s. u k of juris? we just mentioned france and germany there, there the outliers within the european block if you will. president micron kind of going in alone here. can you see president micron actually eventually securing a solution to this crisis? well, i think you'd like to do that. i mean, i think he said, i mean, that was, he said it in 20. 17 nate, though it's brenda. he realizes that nato now is actually a public manners, is a minister peace. it's aggravating situ crises with russia. it's expanding to the point that russia feels a threat. there's no need for this. there's really no need for any kind of tension between russia and europe. macaroni sees this, the real question is, does he have the board of german in germany always wants to have it both ways? germany, obviously it has enormous expensive commercial relations with russia. and obviously doesn't want to be in the front blind of any war between europe and russia. on the other hand, germany still does its routine. what by which

u. k. sanctions on banks and germany's breaks on a gas line project western nations act against russia. over the ukraine crisis, global oil prices hit their highest levels since 2014, after 3 years of a full blown russian invasion. ah, let's get going. we're continuing with our coverage of the fast moving developments on the standoff between russia and ukraine. the russian president vladimir putin, is now asking his parliament to formally approve a request to be able to send troops abroad. early of the russians had sent what they called peacekeepers to break away regions in eastern ukraine, which moscow has now recognised. that happened this time yesterday, that prompted a sharp response during the course of to day from the west. germany has put his gas pipeline project with russia on hold. and the u. k. has announced the last couple of our sanctions against 5 russian banks and 3 individuals. let's go live 1st to moscow and our corresponded the daughter, jabar it. so daughter, i guess there's a difference between asking for permission to send troops abroad and doing it. what does it mea

u. k. france, germany and the need to countries came forward and they said, we will not go one each inch father of the river alba. it's now 2022 and they have gotten 14 countries east of the river alba. and this is something that nato continues to deny. they know, with defensive writers, got nothing to worry about. rush does, i can feel, you know, missile launch pod across my funds, which means nothing to worry about. and on this scale, i said you pushed us into a situation where we got no way father, to retreat with her new russia behind us. and. and you're also completely see living in your own parallel universe where you're failing to recognize all the promises that you made despite that being black and white documents. proving that you gave us that promise. and then you will go to roast them good worth of when they talked to each other. they said they had no intention to expand nato to enlarge nato. and despite that, mistress dolton brick, secretary channel of nato is just refuting the facts, unclassified documents from the british archive and published in nash pico. and despite all

washington and its allies say the russian forces could invade ukraine at any moment. a claim, moscow continues to reject germany, the u. k. japan, the netherlands, into the waning of told their citizens to leave ukraine and the u. s. evacuated non emergency cell from the embassy in kiev. but the president of ukraine is saying that these warnings are only provoking panic. war veterans were among the thousands who march through the country's capital in a civilian show of strength earlier on. it's our borders, it's our territory. you, you know, i have to speak with our people like you, you know, like, like breast and, and see people throughs. and the tools that we have different information and know the best friend for their name is that hispanic in our country. and all this information details only for bernie doesn't help us. meanwhile, the russian military saying that it's used appropriate means to make a u. s. submarine leave its territorial waters. submarine was detected in the far east near the pacific career islands as russia conducted naval exercises that moscow says the vessel initially ignore the request to leave.
