every year they said russian summaries in sweden, sweden is now a weapon. nice thing, dolphins, or something like a yes. all righty, george, george. you know, i think when we look back in history here, when, if sweden were to join nato, i think there'll be a future store and say, alba and neutrality we had a good deal. ok. i mean, what happened here? last 20 seconds. go to george. yes, no question. what if sweet enough in what to join us, nate roches, borders direct borders with nato? well, double that cannot induce great deal of anxiety in russia, particularly in the context of everything that's being going on. the western propaganda and everything that makes life very, very dangerous for the fence because this isn't the right time to be joining a turning. it's a turning article, buying into some kind of stupid drinking game in a college campus. ok, that's my opinion here. as all the time we have want to thank my guess in budapest and here in mosque, i want to thank our viewers from watching us here in our t c. and see you next. i'm remember. ah, ah, ah, i

see when, when sweden joins natal. it's nothing good for the stability of their budget, which absolutely no. can further nato expansion affect the conflict in ukraine? how would you see that playing? i i don't, i don't think so. you crave this very, very special topic for, for russia in general. i having in mind the, the, the conflicts and you create general the, you know, before the, my down that was like, like 50 percent of ukrainian. a population was a think are seeing themselves as rational as russians. a miss is very special, come to with a very special situation. um, it will have some effect, but in general, it, for me, it's hard to predict but doesn't bring any stability. this for sure that he doesn't bring any additional security will be. i source thomas as always, thanks for your time on your thoughts. always good to hear. we've been speaking to thomas roper for his take on those recent events, arthur and blogger. the head of the european commission said that you is considering a 6th round of russian sanctions

you know, demon going back to the vinland in sweden. i mean, the, the timing could not be more peculiar because nato does deem russia as a hostile state to its alliance. so if you have 2 new applicants joining the alliance, they are doing that full with full knowledge. that the, the, the country that they're, they want defense, they want to be part of the organization. they want to be part of will defend them from russia. so by definition, if we just take what george said about article one, they're in violation of article one because it could very likely turn into a hostile conflict with these 2 new to new members. i mean, the logic of nato is so peculiar because it's supposed to be about projecting a piece and stability. it's doing just the opposite. go ahead. oh, i agree with you. and then we can even mention now what will be given to these events in the media, they will say, oh would you want to sleep or you want to sleep, watch them. whoa, are here are mean together and here with sweden and finland going in the door so many years. n

every year they said russian summaries in sweden, sweden is now a recognizing dolphins or something like that. with george, you know, i think when we look back in history here, when, if sweden were to join nato, i think there will be a future store and say, alba and neutrality we had a good deal. ok, i mean, what happened here? last 20 seconds. go to george. yes, no question. what if we didn't want to join us, nate roches, borders direct borders with nato? well, double that cannot induce great deal of anxiety in russia, particularly in the context of everything that's been going on. the western propaganda and everything that makes life very, very dangerous for the fins, because this isn't the right time. it's joining a turning. it's a turning article, buying into some kind of stupid drinking game in a college campus. ok, that's my opinion here. as all the time we have want to thank my guess in budapest and here in mosque, i want to thank our viewers from watching us here at r t c. and see you next, i'm remember. ah, ah, with 30 i spoke earlier with her. what are your thousands of people

and sweden may want to join nato of all times. but we can talk about that, but one of the things that you have to think about when you, when you're adding new members to this type of alliance, is what they call article 5 of mutual defense. and that's bandied around a lot. i don't think everyone really understand what, what it actually mean. so tell our viewers here. what is the article 5 of the nato treaty? what is what it is and what it isn't to go ahead. yes. well, i 5 ok. states that an attack on one member is to be treated as an attack on all. so as the media presents it, that's it. you know, the moment any nato member state comes under attack from any non native member say that, oh, for 30 native member states are now war against that attacker. but of course, that isn't quite true because in the 1st place, all that article 5 says that it was one they didn't, and the state is under attack. then all the major member states can then decide what it is that they want to do in order to help out that attack made a mistake. but even

speaking to us from sweden. next up, we go to lviv, ukraine, to look at how more than 11 million people have been displaced, including two thirds of ukraine's children. stay with us. ♪♪ [music break] amy: "eepa gooden" by the swedish instrumental trio vÄsen. this is democracy now! i'm amy goodman with nermeen shaikh. we look now at how the russian war on ukraine has displaced more than 11 million people, including two-thirds of ukraine's children. we often hear 4.5 million refugees have fled ukraine now over the border into poland, moldova, and other countries, but more than double that happened internally displaced. that is where that 11 million comes from. for more, we will go to lviv, ukraine, where we are joined b volodymyr dubovyk, professor of international relations at mechnikov national university in odesa, ukraine. welcome you to democry now! i can't believe you just finished a lecture, that there are even lectures going on in ukraine right now. thank you so much for switching over to us right now,

you know, demon going back to the vinland in sweden. i mean, the timing could not be more peculiar because nato does deem russia as a hostile state to its alliance. so if you have 2 new applicants joining the alliance, they are doing that full with full knowledge. that the, the, the country that they're, they want defense, they want to be part of the organization. they want to be part of will defend them from russia. so by definition, if we just take what george said about article one, they're in violation of article one because it could very likely turn into a hostile conflict with these 2 new to new members. i mean, the logic of nato is so peculiar because it's supposed to be about projecting a piece and stability. it's doing just the opposite. go ahead. oh, i agree with you and the we can easily imagine now what will be given to these events in the media. they will say, oh would you want to sleep? may go on, you want to sleep the west and whoa are here we are together. and here with sweden and finland going in, they do so many years,

and he worked very, very well for finland and sweden. i mean, i, i'm just willard why they want to change their status now, because now they may, they could possibly become a belligerent and in a conflict. were another country in nato start something? i mean, i don't see the upside. maybe i'm missing something, go ahead. there isn't any upside, because as you say, during the cold war of feminine sweden really had a very good i. after all, you know, dirty, would finland. eyes ation actually described a very nice state of affairs. the soviet union didn't interfere in finland's domestic affairs. all that it wanted from finland is that it wouldn't take sides in the cold war between east and west and finland. one went along with sweden, enjoying a considerable reputation when he likes we'd not nonetheless, we had a major reputation during the call will because it maintain that so neutral status . once you are member stage of nature, you know, that means you are a co belligerent and as we're seeing now in ukraine, i think a conflict between ru

we have deepened our native partnership until now hand in hand with sweden. ever since russia legally and exit crimea. there is no other way to have security guarantees done under nato's deterrence and common defense as guaranteed by date of article 5. meanwhile, in sweden, riots erupted in the city of already brew on friday as far left contour pro tester slash with police head of a planned extremist right wing demonstration. the protest turned on objects thrown and a police vehicles torched the tighter demo up and in response to a far right rally where it was plan of the muslim holy book, the koran would be burned. the event featuring anti muslim danish politician rasmus pollutant and his party hardline. i've been banned from me. well to discuss all that, let's speak to economist and publisher of the vert shelf the actual business newsletter doctor. i care to see you today on that. the 1st point clashes and violence in sweden like a clearly a lot of the vision on the streets between communities, between ideologies. why is that happening? i think because the people don't want to be pu

well actually in sweden, if you watch that press conference earlier, it looks more like sweden. we're a little, the sweetest prime minister was slightly more reticent than the finish, a prime minister about that, their potential joining of nato. but one of the major newspapers ins feed sweden spencer tag bullet that has a just released an article saying that actually they have the sources within the government. telling them that the swedish government will apply for nato membership themselves before the june summit as well. so that so, so up for debate, how they will do it would then need to be a referendum that the e u commissioner from sweden a. l. v. hanson said that she didn't think that a referendum would be necessary. remember in european union countries, we saw that breaks it referendum only a few years ago, which was down to the wire and cause a major shift in a political upheaval in britain. and so i think politicians in, in europe is slightly nervous to put this kind of thing on their own political fortunes to a vote when they know they already have pretty broad suppor

now at least 40 people have been injured in sweden, off the several days of riots. the unrest was sparked by the leader of the far right and to immigration, an anti islam grip hotline. rasmus pollard honest hor in the country head of elections this year. officials and several muslim countries have condemned the violence and swedish authorities, according for more resources to deal with the violence scenes from an easter. we can, that's likely to live long in sweden's memory for days of riots in several cities. stones thrown police cars set on fire, and a total of $26.00 police officers injured all volleyball. this violence is directed against the police and society. this has nothing to do with any kind of protest. it's an unjustifiable attack on our legal system and our democracy. it started with a provocation from the far right politician rasmus paladin here at a rally on good friday burning a copy of the koran in front of crowds of moslems authorities had authorized his rallies but there were counter protests, especially in southern sweden. please see criminal gan

but mil sweden and finland hands of government, both moved toward nato membership. that's the main question being addressed at today's meeting and stockholm. we have to really think through what is best for sweden and our security and our peace in this new situation. and of course, what is happening and the discussion in finland is important for us to follow. therefore we need to have a very close contact. this is a completely new security situation for finland and sweden until now the countries have been neutral viewing themselves as negotiators between east and west. but the war in ukraine has changed all that, including their attitude to nato are there is no other way to have security guarantees done under nato's deterrence and common defense ass guaranteed by natives. article 5, the moon has shifted in both countries. more and more people now support nato membership. ve mison or god and i've changed my mind over the last month on finland cannot defend itself alone. very eman, yvonne, it would be safer for us weeds to join. we should do so as quickly as possible.

and i have sweden and finland saying i will, maybe we'll join nato. so this just seems to add fuel to the fire and is, you know, frankly inexplicable. while there have been and reports on named american officials that say that these countries will be able to join nato this summer. that of that seems pretty quick, especially considering the fact that you know, nato and ukraine were considering ukrainian membership in the military organization . perhaps for a lot longer than that. do you think that's feasible? i me, any things feasible, if that's what they want to do, i'm sure they can do it again. it seems to me to be extraordinarily provocative towards russia to do it, especially that quickly. but it's obvious. the west wants to have an extremely hostile relationship with russia, and this would be just another way to show that while, as we already heard, russia said that if this happens, they must go, may be forced to put nuclear weapons in co leningrad. what response would you expect from russia if they do end up joining nato more or less that? i cer

neither are you surprised both sweden and finland are now considering joining up finland, of course. sure is a huge border with russia as well. i think that the personal corruption of politicians, politicians go further than the interests of the countries. i think they're so well about going into the international networks, politicians that they don't, they're not following what their networks. so one of them, i think this is the main issue of this thing and that's what we see in many, many of our countries too in some country at. busy really change like in pakistan and other countries, it goes smoothly like in they all strands on where people are much more opening to these networks. russia said it'll need to rebalance security, see if the countries join nato. what do you think that would mean in practice? are we looking at a potential nuclear standoff here? how serious could this potentially get? yes, we are. we are facing to a new cold war and there are many forces within the ne, do who desired this cold war for ages already donald trump wanted to eliminate the nature because of th

the 1st point clashes and violence in sweden. i could clearly a lot of the vision on the streets between communities, between ideologies. why is that happening? i think it's because the people don't want to be put on one side. it is pretty dangerous. if you're neutral, you are always, you're always the benefit of the doubt that you can withdraw. but if you are now going to one site, especially a site that is pretty fast moving forward towards the russian board, us and who is very supportive in the ukranian mass. very dangerous for the people. and of course they don't want to be frightened. we had ages and ages of peace and we had ages of good feeling next to russia or next to you, euro and people don't want to lose it. and now, while going into the nato, or thinking of going into the nato, everything changes the threat will be, will increase. and of course, the pressure from the natal to push the country against their neighbor. russia will increase to that's what we see everywhere. and of course, people don't want this. yeah, con

but it's unclear while baltic region neighbors, finland, and sweden want to turn into a new frontier of confrontation between the nato block and russia. the negative consequences for peace and stability in northern europe are obvious. earlier. moscow also stated, if a session by sweden and finland happens, russia will have to reinforce the baltic sea region by deploying nuclear weapons and it's european, next slave of leningrad in order to quote, restore the balance rushes repeatedly argued. nature expansion goes against the security concerns. something highlighted during talks before the conflict and ukraine had begun, but was ignored or dismissed by western powers. during the cold war, sweden and finland along with austria, ireland and switzerland decided not shown any political, military alliances. however, in the 1990s, those neutral states became a part of nato still in partnership for peace program, which allowed them to cooperate militarily with the block. without taking off at full membership, the governments of sweden austrian came things of change due to events in ukraine a

and, and sweden, there suddenly movement in this case. mm. although the appeals court decline to crush the arrest, boring for his sons, it also criticized the prosecution's passivity and demanded that marianna ne, move forward with the investigation. she may now change her mind about traveling to london to question a son with has been with us. you give us a thing, it says you like to buy. yours won't be big window in. gone to many funny she will know. you said it was like when we're sending those with a no d, as in roger yacht, deal with a, a ya on the amount of a job comes in to the server while he's worked with cynthia one. okay. then when i put in kilowatt, we have breaking down a suite and this morning they are now offering to travel to london to question julian on the sand. come to them, they'll come to him as somebody allegations didn't come under 5 years down to the limitations. who so it is possible to interrogate a son in london and sweden as in a hurry to do so. i was joking. but i don't want to talk about victory because any correl

and sweden begins to feel the international political pressure, especially from that in america. mm. promoting and respecting human rights for all women. men, girls and boys is a core value and a central priority for the swedish government. but she had dealership when he thought, you know, the quick here, but a, so not a good he up or super. yes, rick, us, those have the near grid issue here to put the heels at a hint, you know, to call me, and i swear sia domain on good i thought, but i say without a 2nd, i had anthea they know they want to see on one side about us like get about a so never will come throw the rest of the yes like us and that i 2nd see it are going to for he opened them set up by east a healy saddles make on these music or but as you're 40 the king unless you're now, but i got auntie saddle, libby, the pro. i saw you specific. i mean, think it was a waste of a lascola, but it's on i think dallas, they brought the sheila but now they see, see on the i see, look oil is that to talk therefore shall if the question or to 1st to diplomatic asylum. that is, and of cou
