well i guess the amount of support that ukraine is getting here but what it will actually amount to in the end may can you repeat the question please just interested to know what you think the support for ukraine they clearly is a lot of support but what will it actually amount to as far as action goes. well right now what we expect. the broad coalition as we would call the broad coalition of the contrie rule which respects the international law and international maritime role of will. join in order to make a collective action. to contain russia in. aggressive moves what i mean is first of all sanctions against russian military in crimea because what happened yesterday and continue to happen today is the result of russian. russian claims that the ukrainian bustles crossed their stated border but actually there are no russians border these are all are ukrainian territorial waters so is just being a continuation their recent crisis is the continuation or what is happening to some sense that. i mentioned to know what you think as well about this idea of martial law president poroshenko

and the international community must understand what ukraine is doing we would urge our partners in the security council not to shoulder responsibility for the dangerous conduct of the ukrainian authorities while the current strait may be common now the combination of ukrainian anger and tension hasn't. andrew symonds al-jazeera. well the russian foreign minister has said ukraine violated international law by sending its naval vessels through the strait without any permission he says the crisis is a move by the president for pushing co to shore up his declining popularity and bring more sanctions against moscow. it may be that while ukraine was planning the provocation and no one has any doubt this was done with the goodwill and probably a direct order from the highest leaderships they were counting on additional benefits they wanted to get out of this situation first of all they were counting on the fact that the u.s. and europe as always recklessly take the side of the provocative words. to moscow and our correspondent rory challenge how much of a boost is the situation for presid

hello and welcome to cross talk were all things considered i'm peter lavelle it's ukraine versus russia again a minor maritime incident on the courage strait is said to be anything between a major international crisis to a cheap campaign trick as ukraine enters an election cycle take your pick but one thing is for sure russia is deemed aggressive by the west even when defending its sovereignty. cross talking strained relations i'm joined by my guest a real concern to in london he's a foreign affairs consultant an analyst we also have in london married a chef ski she is a columnist for the independent and the guardian and in washington we have michael maloof he is a former senior security policy analyst in the office of the secretary of defense all right cross talk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate mary let me go to you first here. i obviously read up on prepared for this program i looked at all of western media and government reactions and i have foreign policy an article that came out the twenty seventh and the title is putin pus

important moment in international relations. russia has issued a diplomatic memo to ukraine raising concerns about the safety of russian journalists in the country this comes after security forces raided the kiev offices of a russian media group and detained its director. who's in charge of ria novosti as ukraine bureau was detained on shoes day for alleged treason his relatives have not heard from him since his arrest now off to ski was arrested ukrainian security services also broke into the offices of ria novosti ukraine and their searches last at more than eight hours and the houses of journalists working for the agency will also as well now there's been a high level condemnations of its actions many organizations are accusing the ukrainian government open attack on a media freedom and demanding release and we discussed this with our rachel dunbar deputy director of the europe and central asia division of human rights watch she says complaints over media freedoms in the in the ukraine where they are on the rise. under no circumstances should the government be criminalizing speec

that makes sense because even the fact that ukraine has finally reacted in such a way that it brings out into the into the open what in fact is the reality and the reality is that there is a war and that russia is the aggressor for. two hours ago submitted a decree to parliament declaring martial law parliament will be in session in approximately half an hour and i would expect that there's going to be a lot of discussion tonight as to that law on basically a war measures act but ukraine is currently in a state of mobilization and it has been for the last four years but in reality what we now have is we have a i guess a legal recognition of the reality of four and a half years of war now that four and a half years of war has been quite successful from the ukrainian standpoint meaning that we've only lost seven percent of our territory but nevertheless daily casualties and over ten thousand dead this is just one more episode in that saga because the president bush who says that the two ports on the coast of the sea of as a key to ukraine's economy why is that. well it's not just those

conflict between russia and the ukraine earlier in the week. this is 35 minutes. >> thank you, mr. president. less than a month ago, when i last briefed the security council on the situation in ukraine, i brought to the council's attention the reports of increased tensions in the sea of azov and underlying the need to avoid any risk of escalation, provocation, or miscalculation. regrettably, a serious security incident took place near crimea, close to the sea only yesterday. i wish to underline that the united nations currently cannot independently verify the circumstances surrounding the incident. however, reports indicate on 25 november, an incident involving three ukrainian vessels and at least one russian vessel took place near the straits when the former attempted to enter the sea of azov. a number of ukrainian sailors, though the exact number remains unclear, were reportedly injured in the event. ukraine claims that it had previously notified the russian federation of its intent to sail these vessels to the ukrainian port of mariupol in the sea, which requires entry through

pushes russia ukraine tensions to a four year high now the reason i mention that and i think i'll quote something of it later is that there's there's something that they can assume what russia's intentions are always no matter what the topic but in this instance there's very little attention given to what ukraine actually did and then rushes reaction to those actions here again we have these diametrical different. narratives in play here one of demonization and one is a wrong party when it's far more complex than that and far more dangerous than that go ahead mary. well i was i have to say that i was very surprised to wake up to discover the been this. clash of navies essentially in the straits of care that russia and ukraine seem to be on the verge of a maritime war. and it all seemed incredibly dangerous. and ukraine had managed very successfully and i think to get its version of the story out first. so their version which i mean it has essentially been disproved. was that there were two gunboats and a tug and that russian ship. crashed into the tugboat deliberately. and there a

between russia and ukraine in the strait which connects the black sea and the sea of azaf. this portion of the session included remarks by u.s. ambassador to the u.n., nikki haley. as well as the ukrainian ambassador and deputy russian ambassador. we begin with the united nations undersecretary-general for political affairs who gave n update on the situation. >> thank you, mr. president. less than a month ago when i last briefed the security council on the situation in ukraine, i brought to the council's attention the reports of increased tensions in the sea of azuf and underlying the need to avoid any risk of escalation, provocation, or o miscalculation. regrettably, a serious security incident took place near cry merea, close to the sea only yesterday. i wish to underline that the united nations currently cannot independently verify the circumstances surrounding the incident. however, reports indicate on 25 november an incident involving three ukrainian vessels and at least one russian vessel took place near the straits when the former attempted to enter the sea of azof. a num

premeditating provocation russia's president putin blames ukraine for sunday's naval confrontation and says the crews of the captured ukrainian vessels including two secret service agents are also on the program. as germany brings together political religious and academic leaders to debate islam and integration we hear from a young german muslim open to shake the future of faith and a country. welcome to the program russia's president putin has accused ukraine of committing an act of premeditated provocation in the naval confrontation off crimea tensions between moscow and kiev escalated after russia sees three ukrainian vessels on sunday at least twelve ukrainian silas' have been detained pending trial ukraine's paris president poroshenko has declared martial law and the country's border regions and warned that russia is preparing for war. this is what life has become for many living around. it's the closest ukrainian city. both of which are now controlled by russian backed separatists since sunday's naval clash with russia ukraine has begun to impose martial law. so you are the c

now and kiev ukraine three destinations of major significance ukraine with its rich lands and resources was an important industrial and economic source for the u.s.s.r. to cut it off from the soviet union would strike a big blow indeed. for most of the soviet union the second world war was about fighting the invaders of their land. but it wasn't quite so simple for ukraine the truth is ukraine has never been a united country. when world war two broke out a large part of western ukraine's population welcomed the german soldiers as liberators from the recently forced upon them soviet rule and openly collaborated with the germans. the real scale of collaboration was not announced for many years after the war but we now know that whole divisions and battalions were formed by ukrainian collaborators such as s.s. galaxy and not to call and roll into battalions. just in the beginning of the war more than eighty thousand people from college cina region voluntarily enrolled into division s.s. galad seen in a month and a half notorious for their extreme cruelty towards the polish jewish

ongoing conflict between russia and ukraine and potential international responses in the future. we'll hear from former diplomats and security experts at this event hosted by the atlantic council. >> all right, good afternoon, everyone. good afternoon. i'm damian wilson. welcome to our conversation on stopping criminal aggression in the sea of aslov. i think it's going to be a important conversation today on the recent events and how ukraine and its western allies can respond. as everybody here in this room knows and those watching online and tv know on november 25th russian forces opened fire and seized three ukrainian naval ships attempting to travel. waters ukraine, russia legally share. six members were injured and all 24 of them were detained and are still in russian custody. this attack marks significant escalation in russia's war against ukraine. it is the first time the kremlin has overtly used its armed forces against ukraine. several western countries, the european union and nato have condemned russia's aggression against ukraine but a comprehensive response has yet to

about country supporting and against from ukraine and if we're going about what. during this meeting in my opinion trump is ready to take his revenge on ukraine on promotion very very openly support to turn against him well ukrainian officials such as have to clean their facebook accounts one of the messages against trump so it's a very well known story but what is the most surprising thing about this or is the fear that that mainstream ultra liberal ideologues feel that they feel before this meeting let me just quote a headline from the london times anxious a lot of. the us choose the talks to ban you how awful you know they choose the talks begin with. the audience always usually did a good place and already got a traditional for coffee or some. form of the on the times european leaders will discuss the threat the true putin pulls to western unity at the you saw this evening the reason me said that britain is prepared to join european initiatives to tackle threats from russia even if not backed by the us it's very people going to want to have good historical observation here gentle

-war, they could actually become a real war. go ahead. >> yes. i have to cover ukraine in five minutes. i am sure you are familiar. what i will do is give you my field on ukraine. we will delve into the three scenarios in the chapter, understanding this has more greater substance than the summary i will give here. first, the general perspective that ukraine is an unsettled war where the ground on the ground where it is similar to world war i and there are skirmishes and cycles of escalations but indecisive and they do not make substantive gain for any side of the conflict on the ground. we will shape security systems which is the option and there is influence in domestic policy. they hope to roll back more influence over time. this is a long game. it does not have a lot of one- on-one in the near term but there are cards to play over the long-term. ukraine is not moving out of the russian borders anytime soon. they have a challenging road ahead of them. from our perspective, the quest for leverage has stalled out. the pressure on ukraine leadership is largely void. it was effective in

the history of joe biden american involvement in ukraine interfering in elections in ukraine i think it's a very dangerous path for this you know longtime political hack joe biden to get way back into the debate without considering the degree to which the united states may have done even worse things meddling in the ukraine and elsewhere under the barack obama years when he was vice president so i think there was another unwise statement on the many that come out of joe biden's mouth charles appreciate your time and your thoughts charles hotel my guess private investor and right. now the indictments come as the f.b.i. is under heavy criticism over wednesday's deadly school shooting in florida that's after the bureau admitted it failed to react to prior tip offs on the dangers posed by the alleged gunman accused of killing seventeen people florida's governor has called on the f.b.i. director to resign over the fatal failure the f.b.i. says failure to take action against this killer is unacceptable seventeen innocent people are dead and acknowledging a mistake isn't going to cause it a
