it's offensive to of to work out the details, but then zelinski back tracked. he said he wasn't ready. and the offensive continued today though he again said he was ready to sit down at the negotiating table. he said he wanted peace, but he has since declared that they are not going to send a delegation. the reason for that that they say is that apparently russia gave them an ultimatum that they had to lay down their weapons and surrender at the last moment. so they have since refused to ukraine has also said that they're not happy about the venue. they say that they don't, as lensky says, he doesn't want to negotiate in a country. that is allowing russia to attack ukraine from its territory. and let's take a listen to what ukrainian to, to what the ukranian president said earlier. she just moving to west here was, was now there is lots of news about possible negotiations between ukraine and russia. the can end this war and return peace to all of us. a minute his off to mentioned is a platform for these negotiations, a platform that was not chosen by us. now we

well, i think i, well, i think that having negotiations with zelinski perceive is not an obstacle to put him to justice afterwards. if he has committed certain crimes against the people or few korean people of numbers, we have examples in the history. when the leaders like middle shoes, for example, who have been accused of committing crimes, have been negotiating agreements and after that hakan urban taken to just as he mentioned this whole on conflict, a rough test, ah, our does the inability of rush and the west to agree on basic security principles in europe with what happened over the last couple of days and what may happen in the near future when do you think that file is last and do you think those negotiations will continue on the basic security principles in, on the continent. you know, geo politics matter and in the very heart of avery procedural question of every organizational quest for both rules, norms and law, we have a territorial problem which territory can be considered as a possible conflict point for the nations to which are dangerous for the peace in the, in the

and that's what president vladimir zelinski asked parliament for wednesday. after sharing a meeting of his security council. zelinski, also whole cities, polish, and these new indian counterparts, the 3 signing a joint declaration of support and solidarity ponies, president andres, do that described russia's actions as a threat, not just to ukraine, but did the whole you. zelinski said it is russia, it should be providing security guarantees, not the other way round. in fact, shown asherwood me to bishop, this is the fact is that today there are 150000 russian soldiers at our border. those territories are temporarily occupied. i believe could russia should be among those countries when the provide clear security guarantees is not a secret that i have many times suggested that the president of russia sit down at the machine table and speak already in the west. intense shuttle diplomacy. continues. frances foreign minister has been in berlin for talks and tougher sanctions are looking inevitable. who i know for you varina. we accept economic consequences for fr

and yet, and yet officials and he ever, including zelinski have actually said we support uminski code and we think it's, you know, the next level, the next way to, to ensure a piece for that, for the region. yet for some bizarre reason, he has not been implementing pretty much most of it. now some analysts say, well, that's because they've got very, very strong friends and certain parts of the world. they don't feel the need what they have to implement this stuff in the other. this is one of the main arguing points. so the russian president, that may fusion here, you've got to work with us here. you've got to it's 2 to tango. here's a 2 way street. we've got to implement this min court. it was agreed upon by a number of brokering nations as you know. and yet ever since then, ever since my done 2014, the people in these breakaway republics, i think get, having. well, they've been living a very, very difficult life and living under an economic blockade that was announced by key also living among a war zone as well. these people are not wealthy people ellia right in there. you've been ab

one point he made was that zelinski he was, he was basically confronted by a reporter who said that, how can you say that there are not susan ukraine when the ukranian president zelinski is jewish, to which the russian ambassador pointed out that zalinski doesn't seem to have the real power in the country, he took power on a platform of peace and bringing the country back together. however, at this point, at this point, zalinski has proved himself, he's proved himself to be weak and have no real power. that was what was said by the russian ambassador and benzene and it appears the real power in ukraine is with the military and with nationalist forces. and that the president really has no ability to control them. so simply pointing to zelinski is identity and heritage is being jewish to deny the reality of the as a battalion of the forces that are tearing down world war 2 memorials of the, you know, of the, of the extreme anti russian and pro, not the sentiments, the torchlight marches were step on bendara to point to zalinski heritage to deny all that is simply is simply a facade. no

i wouldn't say he's necessarily almost to zelinski. so i, but he, you know, he shows solidarity with ukraine. doesn't he? after that trip to moscow yesterday. certainly, and i think it's quite telling that we have heard from the ukranian at president. he spoke very briefly and he mainly talks about the financial aid that they've received from france so far and how helpful that's been to the country. and then the french president who is still speaking and has taken center stage. he's very much now at demanding to be seen as the peacemaker that he wants to be in this whole crisis and manual. my cramps said that some have try to mediate between russia and ukraine, referring to the former german chancellor angle merkel. and he also stressed that they normally formats that is a, a group that's made up of germany, france, russia, and ukraine to try and continue the dialogue about about the minsk agreement that they signed to continue that format as well. it's very important to ukraine stability and the whole situation about creating more sta

when mister zelinski 1st told that he wants to talk and discuss the neutral status for ukraine, but then he changed his mind and the operation was resumed. so this is not something that is going to happen right now. according to the spokesperson for the russian president present mitre passcode, he said that even when these new these negotiations and barriers are going to happen, it doesn't mean that the military operation by the russian armed forces and ukraine is going to be stopped. but maybe something will change after these talks. we'll see about that. okay, well let's have a look at developments then on the ground in ukraine on day 4 of this conflict with reports of advance is by russian troops and don't bass forces against the training army. in various parts of the country, eye witnesses, a film this footage, which they say does show russian forces entering ukraine 2nd city hall called something also claimed by its mer. he added that russian troops are already in this city center. meanwhile, fighting has been reported in the suburbs of kiev, some buildings of cor fire amid the clas

and the fact that zelinski is allowed to talk about that freely from the missouri doom of the security conference and, and, and her and his role is not to feel that. so what are you suggesting is essentially that they're from a strategic point of view. ukraine is a problem and would have been the problem for any of its neighbor if it was there in the, in the current that configuration that we see not for any or for its neighbor, are not merrily for any of its neighbor, but for the international community. as a whole, because the present path occurring in development could put russian position russia in the position of defending is survival. now let's talk about the survival of ukraine because her, for the most part, we spoke about the, the military action in ukraine bed. and there is also 2nd front and the breakaway republics. when the house of fire, some russian special forces are now being pushing defrauds line are further into the territory of the ukraine. what do you think is the gall and the limits there? you mean, are you speak about this republics in republics? yes. well this is

his mother was an engine name before being elected in 2019 zelinski was better known for his comedy. he was famous for playing a high school teacher, turned president in the series 7 of the people. phil and sky was viewed as a joke candidate early in his presidential bid, but he has a law degree from kiva national economic university. in $29.00 teams landscape, anti corruption platform, secured him 73 percent of the presidential vote acting petro poor shanker. when zelinski took office, his servant of the party of the servant of the people party rather did not occupy a single parliamentary seats. months later, they secured an absolute majority, the 1st time in ukraine's post soviet history. dear sir, is it director at the open societies, europe in eurasia program, he says the landscape background as an actor has helped him to communicate effectively with people in ukraine and 3 owned. he was very popular unlikable before he went into politics before 2019 and he was very well known as a comedian and as an act when he lordship and painted the 1019 that was a big surprise. i think most

when the operation began, zelinski immediately zalinski mediately cut, all diplomatic ties with russia. then he reached out to the e. u to the united states, trying to get, trying to get them on board and trying to get some, you know, help on the ground. he asked for an anti russia coalition. he was, didn't even ask for it. he said we at the state of his as a fact that we are forming the anti russian coalition. and apparently this was the response that he got listened to what the cranium president had to say lately. yes, brittany, to was numb. i asked them, are you with us? they answered that they are with us or that they don't want to take us into the alliance. i've asked 27 leaders of europe, so if ukraine will be in nato, and i've asked them directly, all are afraid and did not respond. we are not afraid of russian. we are not afraid to talk with russia. let's talk about everything. security guarantees for our country in a neutral status, but we're not in nato now. what security guarantees will we, how it differs which countries will give them this big? then there's definitely a dem

when zelinski took office, his servant of the people party did not occupy a single parliamentary seat. months later, they secured an absolute majority the 1st time in ukraine's post soviet history. villa lucille is director of the open societies, europe and eurasia program. and he says the lens, his background as an actor, as helped him to communicate effectively with people in ukraine and beyond. he was very popular and likable before he went into politics before 2019. and he was very well known as a comedian and as an act when he lordship in pain in the 19 that that was a big surprise. i think most of your hands are all ukraine. yeah. but he was a unifying candidate of the very divided country of the time between the east and west. and i think that was the big appeal and that's why he became that should be that he just to remind that he became a lead there of ukraine. why ukraine was already in war with russia since 2014. so just say that he didn't, he hasn't chosen this job. i think it's not correct. he knew that he would become a leader of a nation in war. i think his transformati

keith or mr. zelinsky will give you full fill them in sc agreement. as in these agreements were signed. what is your impression? about that, and what is the chance for a piece of resolution, mister putin, this morning? ah, there was a press release saying that some troops are being withdrawn than there were comments from the duma, where m. o m p.

president zelinsky has been getting basically a levee in mass. he's been getting every able bodied person who can to build defenses to build barricades. meantime nato activating its response force for the first time amid the conflict and putting them on standby as russian forces move closer to the borders of nato member states. we are deploying elements of the nato response force. online. at sea and in the air president biden in europe so far standing firm on their decision not to send troops into ukraine, putin suggesting that he has nuclear weapons on hand if another country uses its military to stop his invasion. putin has been much more explicit about nuclear saber rattling in the past. than he is in the current moment, so i think we need to remain alert the united states, its nato allies, shots ringing out at a train station and keep as thousands of ukrainians continue to try to flee the country. men aged 18 to 60 temporarily required to stay behind i am safe with my daughter. but from the other side, i suffer because of the separation. and

but, you know, i gotta tell you it's unclear at this point if president zelinski is a really sickening oceans, or perhaps he just wants to buy some time for his own military. i mean, we know from what the russian president said earlier, that the russian military operation in ukraine was put to hold on february 25th when mister resilience kiefer is told that he wants to talk and discuss the neutral status for ukraine. but then he changed his mind and the operation was resumed. so this is not something that is going to happen right now. according to the spokesperson for the russian president, president mitre, passcode. he said that even when these and you go these negotiations and barriers are going to happen, it doesn't mean that the a military operation by the russian armed forces and ukraine is going to be stopped . but maybe something will change after these talks. we'll see about that. yeah. okay, well i keep an eye on how all of this develops. thank you. constantino's constantine roscoe in barracks. okay, let's go back to our top headline, the sound because in response to what the

but president zelinski, as most people know, as a former tv actor, he's a former comedian. he's recently said he's, he's mulling cutting off diplomatic relations with russia. do you think that would be why the theories are he's just, he's just joking. know, i mean, i will make feel that they really do is maybe even under pressure by the us. but let us bear in mind that it's not only about political relations here, it's when you speak about the cutting metric relations, it means all cutting off constant relations with speaking of millions of ukrainians who into this work debate within the russian federation. oh, who have documented to renew who has transferred to make we are speaking of russia within ukraine. so we were not in a situation, iran versus the united states, and i bought a cup of diplomatic relations and the mobile, perfect them that aligned to my we are speaking about 2 neighboring countries with huge. yes for us on both sides. and so with the, with, with very then network of human and come on the relations car. and what about the issue of peacekeepers? if we ca

famous for playing a high school teacher, turned president in the cities servant of the people. zelinski was viewed as a joke. candidate alien is presidential bid. buddy has a law degree from keith national economic university, and he co founded ukraine's most successful production company. in 2019 zalinski, his anti corruption platform secured him 73 percent of the presidential vote. ousting petto, polish ankle was zelinski, took office. his 7th of the people party did not occupy a single parliamentary seat. months later, they secured an absolute majority. the 1st time in ukraine's post soviet history. hello. so is director of the open society, europe and evasion program. he says the landscape background as an actor has helped him to communicate effectively with people in ukraine and beyond. he was very popular unlikable before he went into politics before 2019 and he was very well known as a comedian and as an act when he lordship and pain in the 19 that was a big surprise. i think most of your hands are all your kind. yeah. but he was a unifying candidate of the very divided country o

there are reports that president of zelinski is making an effort to try and find some sort of talks in some sort of negotiations with the russians. the russians appear to be open to that, but there is some, some delay in that if it took the ukrainian government standing down in order to save lives of ukrainians, would that be worth it? there is a much more in the state state some and then i can never imagine to be who said that you cannot go she with a tiger when your head is in his mouth. when discussing the same idea in 1941 in love with the point here is that ukraine is facing a central crisis from the metal dispute, so with the borders or dispute. so nato, a protein has his cell time and time again said that is simple point that he does not see cranes the state. he does not see ukrainians in the nation by every polar measurement. we don't agree with that, and we will try and prove that to be the reality in the battles, including the battle of keys tonight. as far as the stalks are concerned, at every single junction law government, myself as well as it are interesting going about t

a president zelinski being very worried about the impact of this crisis on the country on the economy of the country. i. hence, he has been calling for a few days to sort of tone down to rhetoric and try to avoid creating a wave of panic because the country is hurting and cannot read the afforded much longer. whether the is a war or not. you hear people tell you, our army is very small compared to the russian army. ukraine will never be able to equal the size of the russian army, but it's true to me propping it with a 100000 people of soldiers more over the next 3 years. is going to be a welcome move, especially that at the moment the ukranian army is very popular among people. here . anyone you speak to will tell you how much they trust the army now compared to back in 2014, where the army was criticized for not really putting up a fight, especially during the annexation of crimea. while this, that people are dead. you know, the army is better equipped with all this 8th coming in from many countries. i suspect that you will have a lot of young men and women who would actually try to

it has been quite defiance responds from zelinski, is also where initiated an emergency meeting of the norm and the 4 course that involving ukraine, russia, germany, and france, the match in 2014 to try and resolve this conflict in east ukrainian, of course, called for a peaceful resolution, but it also were recognized as the recognition of the 2 nations as independent as provocation and threat, saying he will not give in to the threats from the russian side. he says he's also a violation of ukraine's national integrity and sovereignty $1000000.00 question for donna here, because everyone's feeling very nervous and anxious about the state of affairs, especially those of us living with families here in mosca. could you give us a sense of how this whole situation could play out? well, as always, russia has pushed for diplomacy and dialogue and de escalation, but the west for all these years has, has kind of not fulfilled its obligations. or it's part of the bargain of the, of the men's agreement, disagreement. that it, that it's continually state say, when in these talks, and course when

the context are, of course, so different, you know, this is, i would argue much more terrifying. zelinski isn't on the phone chatting to a friend about his wild fantasy if you know committing a massacre of ethnic russians. he is literally standing on the wild stage in front of the global elite saying that he might well renee, on one of the most significant documents of the 20th century. it's really, i would argue not far from being political blackmail. because essentially what he's saying is on the fool of you who's sitting in front me, start doing something. are you preemptively functioning moscow for what we're not sure yet. the has been no invasion. we thought setting me more money, more weapons, more troops than i will fly up on new facilities again. now, whoa, the west, to put it mildly. i think we can say it's not russia's biggest fan. i think even they recognize that this would be total madness in terms of whether this could actually pan alex or run ahead of ourselves could just be a bit of political side i on a big stage. could it be a bluff? i mean, it could be bluff, i mean, wha

the craning side earlier ukrainian president latimer zelinski, told that he, even though he wants to have peace talks, he doesn't want to have them. in valerie, he suggested other european capitals like warsaw protest lava booted past, as well as eastern bull and turkey. and bach, who in here by john. but now he, he actually phoned to the president of valerie alexander lucas, shall go. and he confirm that the training delegation wants to have engage in peace talks invalid bruce, and that the training delegation headed by deputy foreign minister of ukraine is on its way to the city of gamble. now now let's have a listen to what mr. zalinski told him. we agreed that the ukrainian delegation would meet with the russian delegation without pre conditions on the ukraine. bella luce border near the pretty river. alexander lou caching co has taken responsibility for ensuring that all airplanes helicopters and missiles stations on bell russian territory remain grounded during the ukraine and delegations travel and talks. the russian delegation invalid includes a deputy foreign minister, a dep

that is a sentiment echoed by western partners of kiev, that he was president zelinski. again, speaking on ukrainian tv, just a bit earlier, said arnold, suddenly this morning has gone down in history. but this story is absolutely different for our country and for russia. and we have severed diplomatic relations with russia for ukrainians, independence, and the right to live on their land is the highest value diploma. the shaving, most russia, the defense ministry, is claiming the whole military operation is aimed at protecting the don bass republics. again, in stark contrast to what's being said in europe, i don't say that the ukrainian cities will not be targeted, nor will soldiers who lay down that weapons is something that putin said during his televised address. earlier in the morning. he was calling on ukrainian soldiers to lay down their arms. now, the ministry, the russian ministry stresses that no civilians face any danger will its early days, yet less cross live. now to our correspondent, ill, patricia, outside the ministry of defense here in central moscow. th

so i don't know what, what he wants zelinski now. i really don't know. i noticed one that he did say he called for the sing trees of the budapest manner memorandum to come together and talk. i mean, you know, that involves you train russia, the u. k. and also the u. s. potentially. could that be a way out of the crisis? it is not the same format as the normal the format, so it is not very bright to have oh, different formats of people discussing it, but with different countries involved. i think the, the clear key is that dement agreement and the fact that it must be respected. there were 2 agreements and the 2nd one means autonomy at least temporary for the 2 separatist regions. and also a pardon for. busy all people who participated in the war in the civil war, within your crime, between the care of army and the, and the separatist republic. so tanya is going to cost. so this is the key. this is where things can come down. and contrary to what mr. burrell said, yes, that a 9 to 20 to 40 in this press release. for example, he congratulated, for example,

is definitely putting pressure on ukrainian government on zelinski. many people will say that the ukraine government is captured already by the western sphere of influence by the united states. in this interesting, when you listen to tony blinking is very shaky by the way, very nervous. when he listen to his speech as press concert tonight, he's really only concerned with 2 things. one of them is a stockpile or stocks of weapons. the u. s. is unloading all of their old last year's clothes out stock on the ukraine, and then stockpiles of energy or energy energy supplies. and it's funny that these threatening the rest is saying, rushes threatening europe with the weapon ice. if russia weaponized is it gas, and l have a dramatic effect on the european consumer and so forth. there's nobody doing more to shut down in train to pipeline than the united states and britain. ok. so, i mean, you can't take us seriously in diplomacy when they're making 2 different statements . basically in the same speech, i mean, it's totally inconsistent, like the level of dupl

but that's about negotiations, which by the way, have not yet taken place. ukraine and president zelinski categorically, renounce any unacceptable conditions or ultimatums from the russian side. or did need to say they refuse, refuse negotiations, just the opening comments or sarah's. i grab said we refusing. right? well, you see this is i don't know, jumping back and forth because the grading side wants to show the world that they're always open for talks. but at the same time, again, rory, like you said, how can you be open for talks? where from the very onset, you are not winning war, you'll always have to make concessions because of a stronger party in this conflict. so it is indeed a very difficult one for ukraine. at the same time, we are hearing the announcement from mr. lensky. he was talking low the times about the prospect of the ukraine in joining nato. we understand that nato's, of course, a military alliance. first of all, he seems to have given up on that idea. however, on saturday we heard that mr. lansky really wanted ukraine to be accepted to the e. you almost immediately

how dare you zelinski for sure you yourself are from the don't boss. how can you sell your land, your home land in your seat? blatantly lying saying they shoot themselves was up unless via a new garage door more than boss for kirkwood article but seriously for the ratish, toyota, new hampshire. i use drugs, new browser, new profit. it's not true, we've always considered a mile. is russian don based people. these are our orthodox people, obstinate washing off some of going on. the situation in our house is not at all good. there the dishes were breaking the windows were trembling. our son was very frightened, a little push look closer to the net sank. it's absolutely terrible. both people's houses were bond worse than in 2014. they constantly bomb su, and they also shoot where civilians are. the soldiers were not even there. thank you. people for hosting us payments of $10000.00 for each refugee will be given thanks to russia. they immediately offered assistance with housing and food to thousands of evacuation, just like these across the border and to r

we believe that nato membership will ensure our security zelinski was forced to clarify your crane's position on nato after cummins. earlier in the day, made by ukraine's ambassador to london for suggested that ukraine could be flexible when it comes to its ambitions to join the military alliance commentary ambassador late to retracted. we are not a member of nato right now and to reward war. we are ready for many concessions and lots of what we are doing in our conversations with rations. but it has nothing to do with nato, which, which is in trying to make a situation at digital is moscow. doesn't want ukraine in nato and says that the west has ignored it. security demands, but in a possible sign of hope. russia's foreign minister has advised president vladimir putin to continue with dialogue. but as usual, this was our possibilities and exhausted. of course, security talks can't continue endlessly, but at this stage, i would propose to continue and increase them pressure. all right, a move that will be welcomed by shawl, so we'll meet the kremlin leader on tuesday. when would some

now, social media started including content suggesting that zelinski was putting out a message, not that message, but a specific message to his forces and his people that to hand their guns in it for the sake of diplomacy, for the sake of an end to this conflict. totally false. indeed. we all know it's false, but a lot of people may have thought differently. he said in a statement, he read out in front of the presidential offices only a few hours after dawn. and he made it quite clear that that was fake news. that he was staying where he was, that they would fight to the end. he was absolutely categorical. that he would, he was depending on his forces and the bravery of his forces and the spirit of his forces, giving their lives for independence and resolute in doing that. now that was a message, it was quite short, but it was to the point, it contrasted with 12 hours earlier, where he was calling on vladimir putin at to catch the have negotiations through into majors if necessary. but to have negotiations directly to stop the killing, to stop the fighting, to try to come to some half wa

some relatively objective information provided. 6 of those television channels were shuttered under zelinski alone. and how could we fail to mention the fact that the country with flooded with weapons which were then turned on the peaceful civilians in the mouth . the responsibility for was taking place right now lies at the feet of the current ukrainian leadership as well as our western colleagues. so today it, today we wish to emphasize that this has been inflated by the live, the seed mis information from the ukranian armed forces and the nationalist western media outlets. increasingly shamelessly are portrayed in our military operation as a result as a negative consequence. since we constantly here lies fakes about indiscriminate shelling of ukrainian cities, hospitals and schools. kindergarten to the russian army does not pose a threat to the civilians of ukraine, which is not shelling civilian areas in areas and cities where a russian armed forces have taken control. and these areas are seeing buses in a living their lives normally basic infrastructure, transportation, local infrastruc

here waiting for the press conference by german chancellor shoals and ukraine's voting zelinski to stop, which of course will bring to you live attention between russia and ukraine. will be top of the agenda at the munich security conference. later this week, the chairman of that conference, welcome itching up spoke today about the crisis during a press conference here in berlin. he said he's hopeful russia might still send an envoy to the munich meeting. and that is that a diplomatic solution to the stand off can be found, silva does exist up then i believe that more is affordable as does that. it is possible to prevent want to get into freedom, but i'm not 100 percent certain concealed beneath me. above, you know, just as i think the other actors involved in this art, certainly d h i, d, b, they members of the german government or are partners i think is hoffer. i hope that at the munich conference this weekend, we don't just talk about russia in but with russia. if you google was learned some of mid osland breaker, boston markets in europe and asia are tumbling on the back of the inc
