Ukraine-Russia: Can a new war be avoided? – BBC Newsnight
As talks continue between the UK and Russia, are we heading towards dialogue and de-escalation or is war in Ukraine inevitable? Please subscribe HERE http://bit.ly/1rbfUog
Russia’s foreign minister and his US counterpart have held what they called “frank” talks to try to reduce the chance of a wider conflict in Ukraine.
Sergei Lavrov repeated denials that a huge Russian force assembled near Ukraine’s borders would be used to invade Ukraine.
Antony Blinken said America would respond severely to any invasion.
Pro-Russian rebels control large parts of eastern Ukraine since a ferocious war erupted nearly eight years ago.
Some 14,000 people were killed and at least two million fled their homes before fragile peace agreements were brokered.
The US and its allies have threatened new sanctions if the Russian military takes action.
Newsnight’s David Grossman reports.

There have been sobering warnings this week from MI5, the UK’s AI Minister and a number of security officials – AI is already a threat to our lives.
But despite those fears, innovation and AI development continues at breakneck speed.
So this week on AI Decoded we focus in on that central question of AI – should we accelerate the development of ever more powerful AI systems, or slow down before the risks become unmanageable?
It’s the question at the centre of a major new film, Artificial, which explores the growing divide between OpenAI co-founders Sam Altman and Ilya Sutskever over the answer.
To discuss it all, Marc Cieslak and Dr Stephanie Hare are joined by technology futurist Bernard Marr and AI safety researcher Roman Yampolskiy, one of the world’s leading voices on the risks posed by superintelligent AI.

The BBC has witnessed Israeli settlers attack Palestinians and set fire to olive trees in the occupied West Bank.
Several dozen settlers dressed in black charged down a hill near an outpost – illegal under Israeli and international law – to a field where Palestinians and activists were harvesting olives. They torched about a dozen trees and hurled stones from slingshots.
Washington Post photographer Heidi Levine, who was at the scene, was taken to hospital where she told reporters she “got jumped” and described being kicked on the ground.
The UN says the past two weeks have already seen more attacks by violent Israeli settlers than during the entire harvest season last year. It says this year levels of settler violence have reached an all-time high.
The BBC’s Middle East Correspondent Lucy Williamson reports from the occupied West Bank.

This week tens of thousands of young people have taken to the streets of Delhi, India’s capital, demanding changes to the electoral system and the resignation of the country’s electoral commissioner. Thousands have been detained by police in the process.
They represent the ‘cockroach’ movement, a grassroots campaign group started by a Boston University graduate in protest at government policies and high youth unemployment. How did a movement that started as a meme capture the minds of India’s young people, and start to pose a challenge to its long-serving prime minister, Narendra Modi?
The BBC’s South Asia correspondent, Azadeh Moshiri, explains.

I really hope that Putin holdsoff on his nukes, it would hurt the world, just not the UK. It's so sad that war is ALWAYS the answer… it shouldn't be that way. Why can't we just live in peace? It's CRAZY that war is ALWAYS the outcome. I just don't get it. I love everyone in this world,regardless of race, gender, religious beliefs, etc…. it just doesn't matter to me, we are ALL here,we are ALL HUMAN beings, WHY can't we ALL just live in peace? ❤😁 I know it'll never happen, but one can always hope I guess…

Scene: the end of term school prom. Dylan’s Masters of War provides the soundtrack.
Putin to Zelensky: “Remember when we were so good together?”
Zelensky to NATO: “Just think how good we could be together?”
NATO to the USA: “We’ve always been so good together.”
USA to Russia: “We’ve had our moments but it’s time to go our separate ways forever.😳

The United States is using Ukraine for military pressure on Russia. In the event of an escalation, Russia will strike with nuclear hypersonic weapons ON US TERRITORY. The first warning strike will be on a nuclear site in Nevada.

Dear fellow Humans of Europe and America please stop dividing other nations.
You are using Ukraine to counter Russia , just like you did with India by creating pakistan.
My dear Ukrainian brothers,
Please understand the value of your land and stop stabbing Russia they are using you to stop Russias growth of supply of resources.
They fear that, If Russia manage to get the European market they neither compete with prices of resources nor they can control the economy with their selfish agenda….
They are using you, understand this..
Ukrainians are not important for them they just value your land to put Russia out of economical growth and European Market ….
