Ukraine pleads for Western aid as Russian negotiations unsuccessful

A THIRD ROUND OF NEGOTIATIONS BETWEEN RUSSIA AND UKRAINE WENT LARGELY UNSUCCESSFUL MONDAY. 

INTERFAX REPORTS THE TWO SIDES SPOKE ABOUT internal political settlement, international-humanitarian aspects, and military settlement issues. 

A UKRAINIAN OFFICIAL TOLD BELINGCAT ONE STIPULATION IS THAT UKRAINE NOT JOIN NATO.. TO WHICH UKRAINE SAID NO. 

IN PREVIOUS TALKS.. RUSSIA AGREED TO OPENING HUMANITARIAN ESCAPE CORRIDORS.. 

MANY OF THEM INTO RUSSIA AND ITS ALLY BELARUS.. , BUT UKRAINE SAYS THAT HAS NOT HAPPENED. 

THE SITUATION IN UKRAINE CONTINUES TO DETERIORATE.. 

WITH RUSSIAN FORCES NOW ATTACKING AND KILLING FAMILIES TRYING TO EVACUATE FROM THE AREA AROUND KYIV. 

TAKE SOT-ANTONY BLINKEN

<<”Hundreds if not thousands of Ukrainians have been killed, many more wounded.”>>

Annie Andersen: MOSCOW HAS DENIED ATTACKING CIVILIANS.. BUT VIDEOS AND PICTURES SHOW OTHERWISE

THIS AS UKRAINE’S PRESIDENT BEGS THE WEST FOR HELP.

TAKE SOT- Volodymyr Zelenskyy

<<”We are people and it is your humanitarian duty to protect us, protect people.”>>

Annie Andersen: THAT VIDEO MESSAGE CAME AFTER 8 MISSILE ATTACKS IN WEST CENTRAL UKRAINE.

WESTERN LEADERS ARE CONDEMNING RUSSIAN PRESIDENT VLADIMIR PUTIN.. .

TAKE SOT- BORIS JOHNSON, PRIME MINISTER, UK

<<”He’s bombarding civilians. He’s attacking tower blocks with missiles. It is absolutely unconscionable that democracy in Ukraine should be stamped out in this way.”>> 

Annie Andersen; EFFORTS CONTINUE TO DETER RUSSIA WITH VARIOUS SANCTIONS PACKAGES.. 

INCLUDING HERE IN THE U-S WITH A PROPOSED BAN ON RUSSIAN OIL IMPORTS. 

Take sot- Nancy Pelosi
