4
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:15,159
Speaker 1: my flak jacket. Ten kilos of this thing I've been

5
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:18,760
Speaker 1: wearing around for the last months in Ukraine. Much lighter

6
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 1: without it, much much happier to be home.

7
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:21,920
Speaker 2: I've got to tell it now, when you see those

8
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 2: guys wearing the flak jacket, is it just for show

9
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 2: or is it look?

10
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,160
Speaker 1: I mean I always thought so, and I looked dreadful

11
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 1: in a helmet. And there's all sorts of fashion and

12
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 1: style things to consider when you're in a war zone.

13
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 1: But that flat jacket, I just my cameraman used to

14
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:39,240
Speaker 1: sleep in his. It was. There were a few tense moments, yeah, Jonesy.

15
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 1: We were kind of in the middle of the capital

16
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,839
Speaker 1: t Kiev, which was on the constant bombing through the

17
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: day and the night, and of all the times and

18
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:49,840
Speaker 1: all the places I've been, that was the one time

19
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:53,559
Speaker 1: I kept that thing on. We kept so many security

20
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 1: protocols in place. We were always there with an exit plan,

21
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 1: always there with a carful of petrol and three Jerry

22
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 1: cans in the back. We wanted to be able to

23
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:02,920
Speaker 1: get to any border at any time if the Russians

24
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,959
Speaker 1: came and blocked us in. It was a really it

25
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 1: was a fascinating assignment on so many levels. But I

26
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 1: love those sort of stories that they're ten percent journalism

27
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 1: in ninety percent logistics and security, and you know, it's

28
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: boy scout journalism in a lot of ways. You've got

29
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 1: to stay safe, You've got to keep your crew safe.

30
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 1: It's it is hairy stuff. You actually went viral eight

31
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,480
Speaker 1: point two million views on Twitter with your interview with

32
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:30,479
Speaker 1: the mayor of Kieth. Houghton says he's only targeting military targets. Bullshit.

33
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 2: Sorry, where's Mute Duga is?

34
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:34,960
Speaker 1: His building is Multo dug It.

35
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 2: I love how he talks.

36
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 1: That guy. He's so tough.

37
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 2: That's the tal tough any amazing sure.

38
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 1: Is about one hundred feet too. And don't forget he's

39
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 1: a former world boxing champion and I thought he was

40
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 1: about to try out some of his old punches on me.

41
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 1: When I asked that question, it was it was an

42
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 1: impertinent question, it was a relevant one. And when he's

43
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: because we were walking along doing an interview and he

44
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: stopped and he spun and he spat out those words bs.

45
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 1: And he pointed around the buildings that we were standing

46
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 1: in the rubble of and he said, does this look

47
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: like a military target? And it's summed up in just

48
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: that one SoundBite. I said, that's the end of the interview.

49
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 1: I don't need anymore. I knew that was a SoundBite.

50
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 1: We walked away, We put that SoundBite online and off

51
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 1: it went viral, eight and a half million views. I've

52
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 1: never seen anything like it. Stephen Colbert used it in

53
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 1: the opening of his show CNN It's Going Everyone used

54
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 1: it because it's summed up what the Russian foreign policy

55
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 1: really came down to a bunch of bs.

56
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 2: Do you think being there, do you think that Ukraine

57
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 2: can do this? Or what it is?

58
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:37,359
Speaker 1: This?

59
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 2: What is this?

60
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: What's get them out, get their country back, get their

61
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 1: lives back in order to get and start the process

62
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: of rebuilding, get the Russians out, and get Ukraine back

63
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 1: on track to where it wanted to go. You walk

64
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 1: out of a story like this, and usually it's full

65
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 1: of horror and heartbreak, and this one was there's no

66
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 1: doubt about that. Cities like Mario, Pole, Harkiv, and Kiev

67
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:03,079
Speaker 1: itself smashed pieces, but a big butt here. I've never

68
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 1: walked out of a situation like this filled with so

69
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,959
Speaker 1: much inspiration. It was everywhere. The heart and the soul

70
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,800
Speaker 1: of the Ukrainian people is something to behold. I want

71
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 1: to We're driving down rod it stops off, stops up top.

72
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 1: I saw a young boy not with a gun in

73
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: his hand, but a shovel in his hand. He's digging

74
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: trenches and we go up and we talk to him

75
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,639
Speaker 1: and his mum, what are you doing. He's fourteen years old,

76
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,679
Speaker 1: same age as my son, and he's digging trenches and

77
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 1: his mom says to me, his grandfather did this for

78
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: World War II histories in a cycle. Here he's going

79
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: to defend his country. I saw old women with koleshnikovs,

80
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 1: a young young girl who was doing a biology master's

81
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 1: degree with the big buddy Holly sort of, you know,

82
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: daggy glasses and everything in these bought Amazon fatigues. They've

83
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: all gone on too Amazon and bought their fatigues where

84
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 1: they want to be part of the army, but they've

85
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 1: been given these free AK forty seven. And she's I said,

86
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 1: when did you get that? She's three days ago fired

87
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: it yet No, No, I want to not really will

88
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 1: you have to? Yeah, this is this is a twenty

89
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: two year old woman who's a university biology student, prepared

90
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 1: to give it all to defend the country and that

91
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 1: sort of resolve is going to get them there.

92
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 2: But also putin I think he's quite surprised that the

93
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 2: resistance that he's seen and this campaign has is dragged

94
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 2: on longer than he would How does he exit exit?

95
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the hard part. What can what can Ukraine

96
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: give him? What can the West give him? What can

97
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,479
Speaker 1: the negotiators give him to make him look like he

98
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,360
Speaker 1: goes back to his country with a victory, because that's

99
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: he needs it. We know he's a dictator, we know

100
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,719
Speaker 1: he's he's a proud man, his backs to the wall.

101
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: He wants to be able. He knows he's losing, he

102
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: knows this hasn't gone as you say, Jameson. You know

103
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: the way they plan, they thought they'd roll over this

104
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 1: country within days. We're now at thirty five, thirty six

105
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 1: days in and it's actually them being rolled out and

106
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 1: that but to get them out of the country and

107
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: to stop this becoming Europe's Afghanistan, to stop this becoming

108
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 1: a festering store saw in the east of Europe for

109
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,600
Speaker 1: the next ten years. Is they need to hand him

110
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: something and so there you go. What will that be?

111
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: Part of the country in the east, the don Bass

112
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 1: region they've been fighting over the last few years, Guarantees

113
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,840

114
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,600
Speaker 1: security plant, whatever it is. They're going to have to

115
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,279
Speaker 1: give him something or he won't stop.

116
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:22,960
