may cause low blood sugar. the most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, and headache. some side effects can lead to dehydration, which may cause kidney problems. if your pill isn t giving you the control you need. ask your doctor about non-insulin victoza. it s covered by most health plans. this is cnn breaking news. once again, i m wolf blitzer in washington. we re following breaking news out of ukraine. armed gunmen apparently have ordered a united nations special envoy out of crimea. this is a photo of the special envoy, robert serry, taking refuge refuge in a cafe with a tv reporter after gunmen tried to force him to abandon his mission and leave the region. he has agreed to leave ukraine immediately. in paris, mean time, the secretary of state, john kerry, has postponed a news conference following his meeting with the russian foreign minister, sergey
speaking, mr. ambassador, i just want to update some of the information that s coming into us via richard roth, correspondent at the united nations, in contact with some of his contacts there, as well. and the deputy secretary general for the u.n., jan eliason, told him that apparently mr. serry was told to get into a car, and was told he was going to be taken to the airport. apparently, he refused. he sat in the car, but then was blocked by those men from leaving. somehow he was able to then get to a coffee shop and call jan eliason, with the u.n. so we re a little unclear at this point as to whether he was blocked or impeded from leaving that cafe. and look, a fog of this i understand. i ve been on the ground in enough combat situations, and this isn t even a combat situation, just extremely confusing with so much of the rhetoric that flies about, the threats and the propaganda, as well. help me understand this.
reminder that you have a very volatile mix on the ground there. you have these emotions being stoked up for political effect by the russians. and that s a dangerous thing to do. because once they are stoked up, it s hard to put that genie back in the battle. hopefully this has resolved itself if mr. serry is on his way to the airport. if you want to call it resolved. a u.n. envoy feeling chased out of the country, there to represent or observe, distressing, to say the least. and all this as diplomacy is about to play out. we re moments away from the meeting between sergey lavrov and united states secretary of state john kerry. as we await those pictures, i may have to interrupt you, so pardon me if i do, but maybe set the stage a little bit for what happened this morning and what may be about to happen now. this is what we have been waiting to happen for some time. what the u.s. officials have been waiting for, direct contact with the russians and also getting direct contact betwee
if it helped deescalate the situation. we re also getting some reporting that mr. serry requested that the itv representatives remain with him. i can only presume that is for his safety, or at least for his communication channels to the outside world. but the picture you re seeing is courtesy of itv. i m not 100% sure if the person on the right-hand side of the screen is mr. mates. it s hard to tell from his tweet photograph and then, of course, from his profile tweet photograph, as well. but i ve got a couple more tweets that i ve got here that i m going to read for you. and, again, it this photograph that you re seeing is one of the very first photographs that he sent out. you re going to have to bear with me as i try to digest some of this information live. some of the tweets that we re now getting, some really dramatic pictures this evening from the shooting and standoff at belbek air base. a apologize, that is an older tweet of his. let me move to some of the more
door. some wear pro-russian black and gold arm band, not allowing anyone in/out. next tweet. robert serry has now agreed to go straight to the airport and end his mission in crimea. and then the succession after that are the tweets that i had just read for you. that looks like effectively as much of a play-by-play as we can get you courtesy of itv s james mates, who was with the u.n. env envoy, mr. serry, as all of this began to unfold. the initial reports had come in, there was an envoy who had been kidnapped. if you call being blocked and unable to leave a coffee shop as a u.n. envoy anything other than kidnapped, say what you will. but this is distressing. by the way, this envoy is one of ban ki-moon s envoy sent to this mission, to the crimea. he was send to i believe he was sent to kiev originally and then moved his way through from there. but i want to i want to just
