clarification on that because a similar case did happen in kia earlier. it is claim, the rockets were russian caliber class missiles. moscow has yet to comment on the incidence within the neighboring region of her song, the russian defense ministry has released footage of a destroyed ukrainian weapons store. the m o. d states ukrainian troops were using her school storage for a wide variety of weapons, including mortar bombs, thousands of runs of ammunition, grenade launchers, portable anti aircraft, missiles, systems on empty tank installations that show you the ne har cough reaching not. ah, yes, footage has been released of russian soldiers helping to de mine settlement south the request of locals sapir units, some being clearing residential areas, household lot, some farmland. the explosive devices are then move safely to a trench and destroyed using t and t charges. something else to update you on it has been confirmed, one crew member was killed on another 27, remain missing. following the recent thinking of the russian flagship cruiser, the moscow, russia claims a fire on board caused explosion. ukraine says it struck the ship with missiles, the russian m. o t has express condolences to the relatives of the victims. surviving crew members have been redeployed else where in the navy by tomorrow youthful, where many people in the city have decided to remain in their hometown relying on humanitarian aid provided by russian undone. yes, crippling forces for those unable to reach the distribution centers, volunteers are operating on the ground. our team from on cost red on his team are also helping, as well as assisting in the search for missing relative the city of mario fall, as you can see is so almost completely devastated. and the people who used to live in those buildings on are forced to live in the basement or makes shift bomb shelters. we're trying well on a daily basis to deliver humanitarian aid like food to water, medicine, hygienic items. it's happening every single day. oh god, i thought well go with also and people are coming up to me. and so they're asking to send her. there's no network here, the law communication. so they're asking me to send video messages to their loved ones in russia, in the ukraine, or in other places around the world. this woman that i'm about to speak with. she wants to record message for her sister. no, i was from my mom has been in portland for 2 years lately. she has been crying a lot because people who are coming there and showing our homes were not reporting on the victims. you might visit them so people didn't know anything. yes, ma'am. saw my house and cried because she thought that neither me nor my kids were alive, but she is calmer now. she knows we're not dead. because i hello kids. i

many video messages from the residence there who want to let their loved ones all over the world. they want to let them know that they're okay, coach of alfred junior, a mon causative has this that i bought the new skill. would you believe it'll, she would be able to wash mammal with some of the while ago when you tell no, palmers georgiana but, but i saw it beside lamar video let you know? absolutely yes, alex, such as english. and in that, an old job ocean, the liquid or to has been leading the med center. when you hear it was weaker. you initial, not a minor, there will be sleeping better to night, knowing that their moms are healthy, they're safe and sound from on call for a party. the nest people republic will western countries aren't just providing high grade military equipment and weapons to ukraine. some have also back, he exclaimed on rushes, guilty of genocide, dictator declares war commit genocide, half a world away. i'm afraid when you look at what's happening in butcher the, the revelations that we're seeing from what preaching has done in in you cray, which, you know, doesn't look far short of genocide to me. we don't know or is it possible to have negotiations was such a kind of ah, no country or, or it was such a kind of terrorist who would like to kill own people to make an asset against of ukrainians. a lot of these legal qualifications, crimes against humanity and genocide at the end of the day would be for a court of law to determine. but no, we have not documented patterns that could amount to genocide all the while more weapons are heading to ukraine, u. s. president joe biden announced on thursday a further $800000000.00 in military 8 meal includes hi witcher's, an armored vehicles to tow them. hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition and within a 120 phoenix ghost tactical drones recently developed by the u. s. r. for it, la britain will send a for the 100000000 pines of military supports, including morris star, st. anti aircraft, missiles, a pretty short range or defense system or civil rights attorney. robert patio believes the west is using allegations of war crimes and genocide to justify increased weapon shipments to ukraine. we've seen prison zalinski are wanting a full court press, were western aid. i'm this when we started seeing these pushes for quote unquote, war crimes and crimes against humanity. just today president body of mounts another $800000000.00 or $800000000.00 military aid directly to be ukraine. germany is backing this up and sitting more on missiles and bombs and tanks to the craniums. our also seeing big 29 fighters being shipped there. so the more that zalinski gets on western television and claims that they are under the threat of war crime from the russian government, the more money is being pushed down thing. we're neary 3 or 3 trillion dollars from united states directly to those zalinski. this point in time, just a military aid that another i think 1500000000 dollar g monetary and 8. so at the end of the day, the same government, the both president trump and president biden call, one of the most corrupt governments in the world is getting massive amounts, billions of robert adrian from the west. and this is why they keep pushing the story about war cromwell, very little evidence to back it up. well, just another aspect of all this german liter love shaw says, facing increasing pressure over berlin's refusal to send heavy weapons to ukraine. the chancellor argues a confrontation with russia must be prevented while citing the risk of a 3rd world war. we must do everything possible to avoid a direct, military confrontation between nato and a highly armed superpower. like russia, a nuclear power. i am doing everything i can to prevent an escalation that leads to a 3rd world war. there should be no nuclear war. and it should also be pointed to this stage that nature member states aren't all reading from the same page when it comes to their response to the ukraine conflict. some states are refusing to follow the official and the lines on those r t 's maria. phenomenal reports are instead choosing to prioritize their national interest united and determined. this is how joe biden describes nater in its readiness to confront threshold. our unity, whole, our unity with our allies in partners in our unity with u. k. people are sending unmistakable message approval. he will never succeed in dominating and occupying all of ukraine. he will not, that will not happen with sweden and finland intended to join the alliance. ne, to might seem to be getting as monolithic and strong as ever and ready for war, which the u. s. that alliance is actively pushing for, according to fellow nate, a member turkey. but following the nato foreign ministers meeting, we got the impression that there are those within the nato member states that want the war to continue and let russia get weaker. they don't care much about the situation in ukraine, and shortly after germany announced it will no longer send arms to ukraine either. while hungry is in no hurry to take sides. and as calling for peace talks, we still believe in the diplomatic solution. that is why we cherish and really respect the efforts of the president of turkey and the foreign minister of turkey to facilitate peace talks and to convince the parties to come to an agreement. because the sooner we come to a negotiated agreement, the sooner this war will end in, the less people will die. this is the most important issue for us. poland is downscale and it's relations with hungary of budapest stance on ukraine with war. so also criticizing french president mc crohn for his attempts to mediate peace. mister president, micron, how many times have you negotiated with prudent, what have you achieved? have you stopped any of the actions that have taken place all this at a time when europe is divided over how to approach and embargo on russian energy supplies and proposed e u deal to sanction russian oil and gas is up in the air over disagreements among the unions, members, i can't give a date. as far as i know, there is no proposal on the table, but there are options on how best to do this. there is no unanimity on any of these proposals. meanwhile, baris johnson, his country is in the middle of its deepest energy crisis in years. a saying there is a realistic possibility that russia can win the war, even though his german counterpart has recently said that kremlin must be defeated . however, london has gone even further threatening in nuclear strike against russia without the approval of nato allies. if weapons of mass destruction are used, the u. k. reserves the right to strike back independently without consulting other nato countries. it's clear that h, nato country, has its own interests and is not ready to neglect them for the sake of their lions . the idea of unity that joe biden is so into seems somewhat exaggerated. the question now is, will new members how bring native together or cause even more discord them on the block? the russian defense ministry is claiming the u. s. is preparing quotes prompt occasions to accuse moscow of using weapons of mass destruction in ukraine. and the reason supposedly to persuade states who didn't follow washington's lead on sanctions, to join the economic fights against russia. eustace pharmacies kinshasa was born the possible scenario for the development of the situation as to exert pressure on countries loyal and friendly to the russian federation. including india and china, with coercion to impose sanctions against our country. also, when moscow claims the u. s. could conduct the provocations and chemical and biological facilities in har, cough and key if it claims the supply to ukraine of antidote, to toxic substances box. that theory, the russian defense ministry also states 2 days ago, a container with glass biles filed sir fil, with their chemicals, was dropped from a drone on the position of russian troops. well, let's get into them until i did to welcome live on to the program. now colonel ruin dev fed you paul, at 6, i unlist on indian army veteran. you're very welcome. russia claims those provocations, hassar calling them could be used to pressure india and china to impose sanctions, your initial thoughts on moscow's view. let them put the perspective from the indian side as well as my person perspective, deception, and the seat of the propaganda has been the norm for the last 2 or 3 decades of every water being fought by the nato countries, all by the russians, all by the us all by the west, and this is a new norman on if you just big down the intent. if, if i'm allowed even to put in what do use weapons of a mean if it would it be even near to the funds of mass destruction. he would have done it already many, many, many months ago. he has not done with the quantity. if you go back when the attacks went on and if there was a propaganda that the ukrainians withholding hostage even students so far to know, digit and trying to hold them as a human, she'd right. so what did the read we couldn't do? he said ok, have a pause and have the same equation of all the people from that particular city. so i think in this long walk alone, what ready to put in has done is to keep galactose damaged. don't mind you. the weapons of origin, both of the the ship federation and the ukranian in many places are similar. so if you see of canister to which can explored and cause a chemical reaction, the canister, dating back to the soviet union is similar to manufacturing similar size, similar gallery, but as different properties. so in today's age, when you have a media, which is so oddly against the electron federation, i'm not taking admission site. i just, i'm interested in you as a, your man. that was a cough. so if you called the media world across, it is a stack up often nearly 8 people said media. what says the 21st and in that 20 there's 10 percent of media like the media in india and other countries is don't have a site to favor. but they only broadcast what they see coming out. so it is very easy to create a situation. it is very easy to sell and pick the situation and make it look like that a ship going all the way to what site maybe actual zailynn. so i think in today's world, with the media glare, the media propaganda is feasible. it is really easy to achieve what that is. she is accusing on the other hand, propaganda was both sides and, and that is how media is a very, very important tool today. you see, iraq, you see syria, you see any kind of wondering what we have seen in recent lifetime. it has all led by the media perception to be clear and to say that something will happen and they will a few sessions of a chemical attack and india will big of you. i don't think so. you know, we are so naive in terms of a unmatched and implicit we for most b, do be caddied by a propaganda. we have enough in all ears, and as you well know that there's a lot of pressure coming from washington isn't there, and that includes all new delhi, cut those provocations, eventually we're cut it influence india's position when it comes to sanctions. royd . right, so i believe the sanctions out of some countries that are seizures that i'd be. busy fishes today, even in the, in bent in the middle. and that's something which natal gonna deal with. you might just heard the british prime minister wasn't being announced on your channel. that he would take a, you know, that was fed with the new guy that he cannot do it. it's, it's very difficult for picks in depth edition india cannot be slid any mall. we had a company with the largest global market keeping the chinese outside the largest emerging market. and do you think the, the, the americans or the germans or the french or the russians, or the australians or the muse, lend on a japanese or anybody can put a picture of an india. what to be worked on to do? you just heard the odd form this, that a new edition between us, where the media about the oil imports in me, how many companies in europe, how many countries in this, as under listen to reason, really sort of i, if the russian blocks it's, is few, it's fuel it's, it's, it's, it's gasoline. do you think americans are willing to dig into that reserves and give gasoline be europe? i don't reach you, but in the oceans, did it the answer to the question mark. so it's not will easy. the market dynamics, the energy needs, i'm dish and the goals such both both the blockage of the says he fared the the chinese influence use use all going to be hit in the, in the 3rd quarter as well. the indian financially that is october to december last year. so the bird is looking at more security and what are you doing? i quite appreciate what the germans are saying. what under the saying that will give you. i don't go to supply weapons and has this global, this war and, and, and they've got a new one case artichoke trip, but just on the weapons us, because i want to get your point of view enough as well. nato continues supplying huge amounts of weapons to ukraine. do you fear colonel, where doubt weaponry could ultimately end up like, how dangerous could it actually be for western countries alone? it could be the escalation of this wall by the rest of influence to given weapons, to fight against the russians. i think it's not the best idea. it is actually for walking. the war will be longer and more and more, you know, and in terms of the quantum and the force more and more deadly emitter, you don't want to do that. and especially when i mean, when would you happen? that i should take them out of the mandate of the you in human rights commission. why they volunteered to say that we would participate with the full commitment to the inquiry. and that's what i'm saying. things can be stage. things can be controlled and venue leave one side of the story out of the question, then you are enforcing a propaganda on the way to believe the what may believe in fox but not fully. but remember that she has got the units that go to council recommending. so i do good to say that doing this in bed by myself, this conflict. you were to break down the you and you would have been done all the structures there because that that's where i should sit on, on the with up. so i think it is more to see and more who don't vision. it may be a global arda. it was a mission saved by my own with my room, and i don't want to dollars. so you understand the change is something with the chinese book about that unit and a half back. how, how the dominant with dead currency, and that i should actually have done it. so i think it's more of how the future is going to be will ship as, as, as a global war order. which address should be emphasized. that is what is ready for the way you start them on the weapon. it's not about the war. okay. want us got a machine of them. okay, very interesting points there. and that i'm sure we'll delve into further in the day as well. thank you very much. colonel roy, dev geopolitical on military analyst and indian army veteran. well, another pillar of trans atlantic unity that's the european union could be under threat this sunday when the 2nd decisive round of the french presidential elections are held. the results could be unthinkable for brussels as challenger ringler penance, promising a complete overhaul of french foreign policy on the radical shakeup of the e u. her opponents incumbent president, manuel macro and phil has a firm lead. according to the latest pulls his team of also been promoting the campaign posters with suggest france will have an alliance with russia. if the pen wins, rti. charlotte do been c explores whether the tactic will succeed in putting millions off from voting for the right wing. kind of it the 2022 presidential election isn't just about the 2 features that france faces. the choice voters me here on sunday will have far wider reaching implications for the feature of the you project to mac . korn is a keen you are a file opening presents is image of an ever close a union, much a quote on your, i believe in europe, and i believe in the franco german relationship. yeah, the pen has softened her anti you stance, but it's still adamant that she believes in putting france 1st. just with her stay . i want to stay in the european union. what i want deeply to have it modify to actually bring about a european alliance of nations. the changes she wants to make include transformation of the european commission, giving french citizens priority for certain jobs and access to public goods and services. and she wants to include the change in treaty, which allows the free movement of people and goods. so the idea that she could win is making many across the block shake in their boots in a bell to persuade undecided voters that they feature is in trouble. you leaders are infinitely calling for the french to turn out from mack on. the 2nd round of the french presidential election is not for us an election like the others. it is a choice between a democratic candidate who believes that france is stronger and powerful and autonomous european union, and the far right candidate, who openly sites with those who attack our freedom and our democracy. however, while some new leaders have voiced concerns, there are other european heads of state who would probably welcome a le pen presidency or bond would probably welcome her from hungry, other more conservative leaders. i think you would, you might see or embrace her as well. the, perhaps even poland, they're speaking more for the values of their country rather than following blindly on what other brussels puts out. so you'll see countries coming together and not perhaps not on all issues, but on some issues, to provide a more stronger, a stronger voice. to counter brussels policies that are may, that may not be in the interest of the european citizens. countries like italy, hungary, poland, have all previous re elected euro skeptic, governments. but the idea that from one of the original block members would shift in such a direction is the brussels. the thinkable depth would come to a challenge for the euro. the european concept, the euro project here. but also on the data side, it could become a threat to the nato structure as well. so it could actually cause some fractures within the nail nato will. i meant to also you could see turnover across multiple countries. you may see changes occurring and as a result a weakening of their, of their union of the whole concept under is another concerned to le pen has said that she would look to block sanctions when it comes to russian energy, saying that it is the french you will end up paying the price of this. the e u is already in a difficult stage when it comes to getting new and more restrictive sanctions put in place against moscow approved. and these are agreements that have to be unanimous across the u. l. a pen presidency would bulls to support for leaders like hungry and victor albany, who has called this a red line. so how likely is this to happen? or the polls have seen mac won't pulling ahead. this rare intervention by the leaders of germany, spain and portugal shows that they are worried that she still has a shot of winning france and therefore the european union is at a crossroads. the choice of which turning to take is simply too close for some for come close. charlotte dubin ski arte paris care something else to tell you about today 23 years ago, nato forces bomb the headquarters of serbia's main broadcaster r t. s. 16 civilians were killed on another 16 injured canadian, serbian film director, a bar a smaller gorski has been looking back at the tragic anniversary. on this day, in 1999 nato bombed serbia's public broadcaster radio television, serbia nieto justified the attack by saying r t. as was a part of slow, but i'm hello so much. is war propaganda, which is why they killed 16 workers, makeup artist, technicians, artists, and security staff. was this a legitimate military target or a war crime? think why was serbia bombed in the 1st place? the u. s wanted serbia to give up its southern province of kosovo, where guerrilla groups waging a war of secession. u. s. envoy to yugoslavia. richard holbrooke made it clear to yugoslav, president slow, but i'm low so much. what would happen if milosevic fail to accept the american's offer a sat in that big room in the palace? and i said to him, you understand that if our delegation leaves here today, and you haven't changed your position, that the consequence will be the beginning within a few hours of a very swift, severe, and sustained aerial attack by nato forces american diplomacy. and while much of the west was convinced by their propaganda machine, that bombing serbia was the only way to stop the serbian counterinsurgency in kosovo. the bombing of the national tv station polarized public opinion a report by amnesty international said nato had violated international law by targeting areas were civilians were certain to be killed and added that the bombing of the art highest building quote was a deliberate attack on a civilian object and as such, constitutes a war crime and quote noam chomsky called the bombing of art. yes, an act of terrorism made a amanda wesley clark tried to downplay what they had done. there were actually 6 people who were killed as i recall. i recall certain i retired feminine. i know the families. i mean think about it. this wasn't an attack on some tv tower in the middle of nowhere with nobody working there. this was the bombing of the state television headquarters in a heavily populated urban area in serbia's capital belgrade, the killing of innocent people who are working the night shift. if that's not a war crime, what is clearly the goal was to instigate terror because artist resumed this programming less than 24 hours later from a secret location. can you imagine what it was like for the people working there, knowing what had happened to their colleagues knowing vague i'd be next, isn't that the goal of terrorism? this wasn't a one off thing. any people don't know that the state television building in the major, serbian city of novi sad, was also hit by nato on may. 3rd, 1999 with the bombing happened on world press freedom day that tv building was bombed a whopping 5 times. nobody was held accountable for the attack, but it reminds us of the alternative to press freedom in the modern world, threat of every one to hear a different opinion before it was bombed. r t s allowed foreign journalists to report from r t. s, a studios, some of those foreign journalists supported the bombing nato didn't give r t s the right to disagree with the bombing of their own country. i say we hear every one and decide for ourselves. next, seen through the eyes of an american filmmaker, we go on a journey chronicling ukraine since its coo and 2014 told by the men who govern the country. our documentary, the everlasting present starts one moment. i .
