they'll say that the fact that we're being told this is enough for us to believe that medical's, the u. s. government is helped by that because the u. s. media does tend to accept anything bite and says about any adversary as gospel. i wouldn't suggest you is what she had on usa right now, but as far as anything he says, it's like, well, it must be true. but the problem is, especially when he made today, was he also said that he had another meeting with the transit landrick. the transatlantic guy lives with canada and various european nations, and that's exactly a week from, from last friday's meeting with the same allies when biden said, apparently, reportedly that russia was going to invade on january the 16th a couple of days ago. and that didn't happen. and even then various european allies and ukraine itself was said, well, we don't think that's going to happen. but the u. s. keeps pushing this line of imminent invasion. and when you asked them why, why are you doing this given them? isn't there a downside to come to the saying this and, and not being an invasion. they always say ok,

u. s. president says he believes russia has decided to invade ukraine in the coming days. joe biden says there's still a diplomatic way. alba claims russia is manufacturing a pretext to attack. and the u. s. is ready to respond. make no mistake. if russia pursues his plans, it will be responsible for catastrophic and needless or of choice. united states and our allies are prepared to defend every inch of nato territory from any threat to our collective security as well. we also will not send troops in to fight in ukraine, or we will continue to support ukrainian. people is thought up 289-0000 russian soldiers remain near the ukraine border. but after a meeting with bell, russia president, alexander lucas shanker rushes that he may, putin said, his forces will now also begin at nuclear drills. he would dish. no, could he go? what of condition? at today's talks, we also discussed strengthening our joint defense space of russia. and belarus, we agreed again to take collect of mrs. the strength and security of our countries in the face of the growing military activity of nato c

u. s. says these troops that will be deployed this week will not be fighting in ukraine, but in your assessment, is this the right moment to be deploying u. s. troops to germany? well, i believe this is a strong symbol to the european allies. it's a moderate and deliberate step and it should encourage european pardon us to stand together. and as is a symbol for cohesiveness, it's less assigned towards russia. it's a sign of solidarity to the european nato member states, and i think this is a good sign. it's moderate, it's deliberate. it's not as color, tory, but how do you think it will be perceived by the kremlin? i mean, the us, their state department has talked about the need for de escalation with this deployment. does it risk escalating tensions? no, we should ask russia why they deploy more than 100000 troops. and by the end of february, more than $150000.00 troops, about 60 percent of their ramp lent forces. this is as colored, tory, and it's quite clear that we repeats are really nervous

says. and of course, the number of troops, the nato and the u. s. are deploying right now is not the, not the only number. the troops at, at the eastern flank of the european union, they already troops stationed in poland, in lithuania and la, we are and in the stone. yeah. because business read the eastern flag of the european union, close to bella bruce, close to russia. and they have been stations there since the annexation of crimea a couple of years ago. do those trips that is that true presence and, and in fact the increased troop presence from the u. s. assuage fears on the european side. i mean, how have eastern european countries been responding? eastern european countries are in general, a very fearful when it comes to what they call a ration publication. and in poland for example, the mood is very positive to words, nato, and 2 words. u. s. troops. i said they're already troops stationed there, and i ones are traveled to to poland. i'm too close to the border with a you cry out too close to the border with bella, bruce and m coleen ingram

and he says, the u. s. is ready to respond. make no mistake. if russia pursues his plans, it will be responsible for kit catastrophic and needless or a choice, united states and our allies are prepared to defend every inch of nato territory. are many threat to our collective security as well. we also will not send troops into fight ukraine, but we will continue to support the ukrainian people. you know, let's start up to 100. 90000 russian soldiers remain near the ukrainian border about meeting the russian president. alexander, look shanker and i says, let me put in the says his forces will begin nuclear drills. he would just go, what of can you look at today's talks, we also discuss strengthening our joint defense space of russia and bellows. we agreed again to take collective mrs. to strengthen security of l countries in the face of the growing military activity of nato countries near the borders of our status. we also focus on the joint military exercises which will continue and bellows until the 20th of february. i should say that these exe

u. s. says that they have, it's very hard to evaluate where that might be coming from or whether it, whether it's reliable. i mean the perspectives are different, right? the reality for ukrainians is that they have been at war one way or another with russia since 2014. and so what's on the table for them is not something new. it's a continuation of something they've been dealing with for, for quite some time. it looks and feels new to those of us in, in the west, in a very different way than it does in, in ukraine. but i think there's also a certain amount of pressure that by the other western leader is going to keep on putting in order to de escalate. right? there is a willingness to continue these strategic dialogues in the conversations and to explore areas where there might be compromise that would increase russia sense of security, but they don't want washer to continue to hold ukraine hosses. there are also isn't a great explanation for why there are something like 130000 troops along ukra

u. s. says the claim is based on lies and it's a pretext for invasion and a chappelle reports. russia's investigative committee says this is an image of a mass grave. the bodies of 295 civilians killed by ukrainian forces has carried out indiscriminate shelling in 2014 other unaided photos broadcast on stevie are said to show more atrocities. they sit with president putin's narrative about what is happening to the russian speaking population in ukraine's east coast. them quickly because in our assessment and what is happening now in the dumbass constitutes in genocide on the u. s. has called the claim a reprehensible falsehood. we are particularly concerned about present imprudent and other russian officials. they're ongoing mentions of quote unquote, genocide and the dawn bass. there is no basis of truth to any of these allegations. these are false narratives that russia is developing for use as a pretext for military action. against ukraine, 876000 ukrainians, and in that scandal, hands have b

u. s. says it will severely restrict which is access to semiconductors, computers and telecoms equipment still on the table. so is disconnecting russia from the international payment system. swift. but that would come with severe problems to western countries too. and so far hasn't been agreed upon where we can now speak to veronica grim from the german council of economic experts. thanks a lot for joining us. let's talk a bit more about the latest you sanctions, what impact they actually going to have on russia? and so meanwhile, the youth summit, it meet on a package that has been prepared for a week. so excess of major ration banks to you, your pin capital markets will be blocked. assets of certain russians in europe will be frozen and good for the energy industry. you may no longer be delivered to russia and some other things. and so the fact that the sanctions were passed without much concrete. lucy can be seen as a sign of particularly good preparation are also inadequate preparation becau

u. s. says that it's going to raise interest rates over the next year. they don't know how many times it's going to be raised. they don't know to what level it's going to be raised. and so that cuts into company profits. and so right now, investors are trying to figure out what's going on and they're shifting money around and tech tends to be a loser. they had recovered recently, but then they saw these new numbers they got should re, again, and they dumped facebook pretty hard at the core. facebook is saying that it's daily average daily active users actually felt something that doesn't happen with facebook that happen in the 4th quarter. that was a lot monthly active users are also tailing off in terms of growth and those revenue warnings for the 1st quarter. so very clear signals that things are not going necessarily in the right direction, short term for facebook. what was the impact of, of, of, of our, excuse me, message the impact was that massive loss, and then it was a ripple throughout the markets. and so right now we're seeing that other tech f

u. s. says that it has evidence of russian plans to stage a fake attack on its own territory as a pretext for invading ukraine. tension between russia and the west escalated that their russia began. massing troops along its border with ukraine, sparking fears of it in these in the u. s. and some date of allies of sit equipment to ukraine and troops, eastern europe in response. now, officials did not provide a detailed information backing up the claim. here's what pentagon spokesperson, john kirby said about russia's alleged faults, flag plan. you know, we've discussed this idea false flagged by the russians before we made no secret of that. and, and we do have information that it is that, that, that the russians are likely to want to fabricate a pretext for foreign invasion, which again, is right out of their playbook. one option is the russian government we, we think is planning to stage a fake attack by ukrainian military or intelligence forces against russian sovereign territory. artless. go

u. s. says the evidence tells a different story. you are a secretary of state antony blink and told the un today that a russian invasion of ukraine could come in days justified with a lot a manufactured provocation, which ukraine says has already happened. russian bank separatist to day opened fire across the front line against ukrainian troops. the shelling blew a hole in the wall of a kindergarten. i'm broken up in berlin. this is the day. ah, we know with concern the reports, fresh ceased by violations. you know, with a false flag operation, there's been shelling since morning to police. ukraine continues to violate its obligations to observe the ceasefire. that's a bedside. we seen the reports of the showing and filling are certainly trolling. so we know about the capabilities we will deploy, not only nuclear weapons, but super nuclear and up and coming once. but of course, we don't know with certainty about the intentions. also coming up, america's iranian community, coming out and coming to terms with the truth. when he was, h

u. s. says it believes russia will invade ukraine before the night is out. he went, security council is convening for another emergency meeting in new york, but is unlikely to bring much apart from calmed and condemnation from moscow's actions. ukraine has called up reservists and declared a state of emergency as it braces for a worst case scenario. a wreath for the armed forces on defender of the fatherland day. in putin's version of history laid out in a speech this week. that fatherland includes ukraine. while the russian leader wade his next move, russian military vehicles were on the move near the border with rebel held on yeske . but the leader of the breakaway region insists no troops have crossed over from russia. kia, meanwhile, was preparing for the worst. a state of emergency was declared reservists put on notice, and ukrainians, and russia urged to leave. then there was the news of western sanctions against russian interests, but ukraine's precedent followed me of the landscape indicated they didn't go far enough. but she put them on the board th

u. s. says on implemented sanctions driving towards the swift ban of russian banks. even switzerland has come out the neutral switzerland and, and said that what the russians are doing are, isn't acceptable. so really, the whole world is uniting to confront russia. weisel lay them diplomatically and economically. i think the russian economy is in, for a rude awakening in the coming days. their stock market will probably crash dramatically once it actually reopens. and they're going to be completely isolated, which in a way makes things even worse for the ukrainians. because that will mean the battery will really have nothing to lose and will have to finish this. the prosecution of this campaign, which will be very, very tragic for the people that cybersecurity expert dmitri outage. thank you very much for your time. thank you. well, one of the key factors of ukraine's continued resistance to the russian onslaught has been the population's support for its army. their backing can be in the form of things like donating money or volunteering labor. our next report revisi

u. s. military will have to explain, but it's also something the u. s. president will have to explain why i, he's continued this trump era policy. donald trump is predecessor saying that most of the is true for out of syria, but as the commander in chief, joe biden, obviously carrying on some of those policies, keeping those troops in place. even if in a very small number, he'll have to explain why that is why he decided to take out the ice, a leader now and at the same time, risk innocent lives. and so we're expecting that statement from the u. s. president, you will be speaking from the roosevelt room of the white house. we expect that to happen at the bottom of the hour. in the interim already, the white house has released on social media a photograph of the national security team, which includes the vice president comalla harris sitting alongside joe biden. as they watched this operation be conducted in our what we suspect is the secure location of the white house, where the types of operations are observed. that is now public. again, a little bit is not unusual for these types of photographs to be released. but again, i hardly reason for celebration, given t

he's also talking to russians. wasn't he saying that at the u. s. in nature, not a threat to russia? well, that was an interesting aspect of his particular statement or saying that the u. s . does not threaten the ordinary russian apparently attempting to counter what the biden administration would see on russian propaganda. trying to persuade its people that the u. s. along with this nato allies pose a massive threat to russia and to russians, but president biden going out of his way to say that this is not the case. he reiterated that there are no u. s. troops in ukraine, and there will be no u. s. troops in ukraine aid ukraine will continue. and also of course, there are u. s. troops on nato's eastern flank. they'd been sent there to buttress the nato forces in recent weeks, along with the number of other nato allies. but very much, a 2 tone spread statement from the u. s. president. it would appear that he decided to make the statement after reports in the course of the morning that russia had begun a withdrawal of its troops. having said that, i
