Ukraine's Prime Minister says his country is on the brink of disaster | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
and he accuses Russia of declaring war. Ukranian and Russian soldiers | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
now face each other in the Crimea region, with the West condemning | :00:15. | :00:19. | |
Moscow's decision to send troops in. The sovereignty and editorial | :00:20. | :00:21. | |
integrity of Ukraine has been violated and this cannot be the way | :00:22. | :00:28. | |
to conduct international affairs. China vows to track down those | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
responsible for an attack at a railway station, which left 29 | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
people dead and more than 100 wounded. | :00:35. | :00:40. | |
And Man City secure the first silverware of the season after | :00:41. | :00:41. | |
beating Sunderland at Wembley. Good evening. Ukraine's Prime | :00:42. | :01:06. | |
Minister has accused Russia of declaring war and says Moscow's | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
decision to deploy troops across the border means his country is on the | :01:10. | :01:15. | |
brink of disaster. Russian and Ukrainian soldiers now face each | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
other at a number of army bases in the Crimea region, after the Russian | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
Parliament's decision to send in the military. In response, Ukraine has | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
placed its armed forces on full combat readiness and called up | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
reservists. From Sevastapol, here's Daniel Sandford. | :01:31. | :01:41. | |
Russian troops patrolling directly outside one of Ukraine's vital | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
military bases in Crimea. While the new Ukrainian government called for | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
a full military mobilisation, Russian soldiers already controlled | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
most of Crimea without a shot having been fired. And some in the village | :01:56. | :02:02. | |
nearby came out to welcome them. TRANSLATION: Our heroes. We are our | :02:03. | :02:06. | |
lives to them and I'm ready to do anything for them. -- they are our | :02:07. | :02:13. | |
heroes. Behind the walls, vital military equipment which the | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
Ukrainian stare not use for fear of provoking a stronger reaction from | :02:18. | :02:22. | |
Moscow. These Ukrainian soldiers are now effectively trapped in their own | :02:23. | :02:26. | |
base on their own territory. A short while ago, their colonel came out to | :02:27. | :02:30. | |
ask the Russians to pull back a bit, but so far they have not moved. As | :02:31. | :02:37. | |
his troops in Crimea stood helplessly in their virtual | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
prisons, the Ukrainian Prime Minister in Kiev warned his country | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
was on the brink of disaster. It is not the threat. This is actually the | :02:46. | :02:53. | |
declaration of war to my country. And we urge President Putin to pull | :02:54. | :03:02. | |
back his military. In the far north of Crimea, where it joins the rest | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
of Ukraine, soldiers could be seen in the distance digging defensive | :03:07. | :03:13. | |
positions. Even the headquarters of Ukraine's Navy in Sebastopol was | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
under siege. This time from pro-Russian activists. We saw how | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
sailors were turned away from work as machine gunners watched | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
helplessly from the rooftops. The man in charge of Ukraine's armed | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
forces until two days ago called on politicians to solve the crisis. I | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
am very sorry that Ukrainian soldiers and sailors are hostages of | :03:36. | :03:44. | |
this situation now. It is very sad. Then some Russian troops turned up | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
and vandalised the electricity substation right outside the | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
Ukrainian headquarters. This evening, as more Russian ships | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
sailed into the harbour, the head of the Ukrainian Navy switched sides. | :03:56. | :04:04. | |
The crisis in Ukraine is one of the most serious confrontations between | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
Russia and the West in recent years - a clash of old Cold War rivalries. | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
Today, the US Secretary of State John Kerry warned that Russia could | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
be expelled from the G8, while the head of NATO says Moscow's actions | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
are threatening peace in Europe. Here's our diplomatic correspondent | :04:19. | :04:28. | |
Bridget Kendall. This isn't just about Crimea any | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
more. It is about Ukraine as a whole. The pro-Russian crowd cheers | :04:32. | :04:43. | |
here as Ukrainian government supporters are literally thrown out | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
of the building. One of several rallies in mainly Russian speaking | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
cities in eastern Ukraine, where Ukraine's flag was replaced by the | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
Russian flag on City Hall. One activist from Moscow even filmed | :05:00. | :05:05. | |
himself doing it. And, as with Crimea, the government in Kiev is | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
trapped. If it doesn't respond, these eastern cities might slip out | :05:10. | :05:14. | |
of its control. But any move that provokes a confrontation could give | :05:15. | :05:22. | |
Russia an excuse to invade. Just across-the-board, Russian forces are | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
poised and ready for action. -- across the border. Essentially, it | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
is a massive training exercise but Russia has turned military | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
manoeuvres into an invasion before when it sent troops into Georgia in | :05:35. | :05:43. | |
2008. There is a sense of crisis in Russia, too, today. President Putin | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
now has the right to send troops into Ukraine, says the newsreader, a | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
senior Kremlin editor. He adds that the Russian president warned | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
President Obama that if there is any threat to Russian interests, he | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
wouldn't hesitate to go in. In Washington, it has been called a | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
brazen act of aggression. It feels suddenly as though the world is on | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
the brink of an East -West confrontation reminiscent of the | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
Cold War. Russia needs to think very carefully about the choice it is | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
making, and there are these macro bands, asset freezes, isolation with | :06:20. | :06:25. | |
respect to trade, American businesses may also well want to | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
start thinking twice about whether they want to do business with a | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
country that behaves like this. We have to recognise the sovereign tree | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
and integrity of the Ukraine and it has been violated and this cannot be | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
the way to conduct international affairs. -- sovereignty. In Kiev, | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
crowds are again filling Independence Square, no longer | :06:48. | :06:53. | |
celebrating victory but appealing for outside support. But if | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
President Putin is determined to act, it is hard to see how the West | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
can stop him. The dangers of this conflict continue to grow. | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
And Daniel Sandford is in Sevastopol in Crimea. As this crisis deepens, | :07:06. | :07:12. | |
is it fair to say Ukraine has already lost Crimea? Yes, whereas | :07:13. | :07:18. | |
stand here it does look as if Crimea is lost. -- where I stand. Ukraine | :07:19. | :07:24. | |
has lost control of its air bases here and its military bases, and as | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
a pro-Russian government in power, so the only way the Ukraine could | :07:28. | :07:34. | |
get Crimea back would be through negotiation with President Putin and | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
it looks as though the price would be a referendum on whether Crimea | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
should break away from Ukraine, and then there is the problem of eastern | :07:42. | :07:44. | |
Ukraine, because although it is possible there could be political | :07:45. | :07:47. | |
discussions and a good solution could be found to avoid bloodshed, | :07:48. | :07:54. | |
if the Crimea scenario continues to play itself out in eastern Ukraine, | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
this could open up a long board of confrontation between East and West | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
Ukraine, and then the chances of a real shooting war will become quite | :08:03. | :08:08. | |
high. Thank you. The Chinese authorities have blamed | :08:09. | :08:11. | |
separatists for a mass stabbing at a railway station in which at least 29 | :08:12. | :08:14. | |
people died and 130 others were wounded. A group of around ten | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
attackers rushed at passengers in the south- western city of Kunming | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
yesterday. From there, here's Damian Grammaticas. | :08:23. | :08:28. | |
Armed police on guard today, ringing Kunming's train station. Incredibly, | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
travellers were already flooding back in, less than 24 hours after | :08:33. | :08:38. | |
the murderous rampage here. Ten or more attackers, clad in black and | :08:39. | :08:44. | |
masked, ran amok. The attackers drew their knives. They began slashing at | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
people and then chased them. The crowd scattered everywhere. In the | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
space of just 12 minutes, around 150 people were killed and injured here. | :08:52. | :09:03. | |
I saw one man and one woman clearly. A policeman walked up to | :09:04. | :09:10. | |
them. He had no weapon. He shouted, put your nice town. Who are you? | :09:11. | :09:16. | |
They set up on him. They ran out from there. They had nice 50, 60 | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
centimetres long. People were shouting, we had never harmed you. | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
Why are you killing us? They didn't care, they killed everyone. -- they | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
had knives. Adults and children. Chinese authorities say this was | :09:33. | :09:35. | |
done by terrorist elements from Xinjiang, in China's far west. One | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
student says one of the attackers ran towards her, stabbing wildly. | :09:39. | :09:44. | |
She was in the ticket queue when it happened. Xinjiang lies thousands of | :09:45. | :09:48. | |
miles away on China's border with Pakistan and Afghanistan. Many of | :09:49. | :09:51. | |
its Muslim Uighurs resent what they see as heavy-handed Chinese control. | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
Violence here has been getting worse. Dozens died last year. And | :09:56. | :10:00. | |
now it may be seeping into other parts of China. Last October, China | :10:01. | :10:03. | |
said this incident in Beijing's Tiananmen Square was an Uighur | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
terror attack. A car ploughed into a crowd, then burst into flames. Two | :10:09. | :10:12. | |
tourists and three people in the vehicle died. But this latest | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
rampage was far more bloody, and what will worry China's authorities | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
is that, despite the vast funds they are now spending on internal | :10:20. | :10:31. | |
security, the violence is spreading. The former Northern Ireland | :10:32. | :10:33. | |
Secretary Peter Hain says pursuing British soldiers involved in the | :10:34. | :10:36. | |
Bloody Sunday killings is a "waste" of police time. 14 civilians died in | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
Londonderry in 1972 after soldiers opened fire during a civil rights | :10:41. | :10:50. | |
march. Mr Hain's comments follow the disclosure that a number of | :10:51. | :10:52. | |
Republican terror suspects have been sent letters which in effect give | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
them immunity from prosecution, as part of the Northern Ireland peace | :10:56. | :11:01. | |
process. In just a few hours' time, Hollywood | :11:02. | :11:04. | |
will begin hosting its biggest party of the year for the Oscars. American | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
Hustle and the British film Gravity lead this year's nominations, as our | :11:10. | :11:11. | |
entertainment correspondent Lizo Mzimba reports from Los Angeles. | :11:12. | :11:20. | |
For months, it's been a relentless run of red carpets, all building up | :11:21. | :11:28. | |
to the biggest event of the more. Leading the battalion of Brits | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
hoping to storm the stage this year is Steve McQueen. I'm really | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
nervous, but it will be a celebration. It is one occasion | :11:41. | :11:45. | |
where you have to force yourself to enjoy it. Its main competition comes | :11:46. | :11:54. | |
from two films. American Hustle and Gravity. The latter was made in | :11:55. | :12:01. | |
Britain. Whoever ends up winning or losing this will still be seen as a | :12:02. | :12:14. | |
very strong year for British film. Some nominees like Cate Blanchett, | :12:15. | :12:20. | |
up for best actress, are considered almost certain to win. I'm just | :12:21. | :12:28. | |
excited. It is a lovely position to be in, which ever way the penny | :12:29. | :12:35. | |
falls. Others, like the team behind Philomena, may have a Mormon -- a | :12:36. | :12:43. | |
more nerve wracking evening. But here is some advice: don't do great | :12:44. | :12:50. | |
long lists of bank queues. Thank them later, write them a nice note | :12:51. | :12:55. | |
afterwards and say thank you. In a way, that is more appreciated. Try | :12:56. | :13:02. | |
to be sex linked and don't cry. -- succinct. For many, winning an Oscar | :13:03. | :13:09. | |
will be the highlight of their career. Holding back the tears may | :13:10. | :13:17. | |
be one piece of advice they will not be able to follow. | :13:18. | :13:26. | |
Now, let's get the sport. The first major piece of silverware | :13:27. | :13:29. | |
of the football season has been won by Manchester City after beating | :13:30. | :13:35. | |
Sunderland 3-1 at Wembley. It is the first for the manager who joined the | :13:36. | :13:40. | |
club in June. Natalie, a disappointing day for | :13:41. | :13:45. | |
Sunderland. Was it just too big a task for them against this | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
Manchester City side? History will recall this is a 3-1 win for | :13:50. | :13:56. | |
Manchester City but that score does not do credit to how well Sunderland | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
played. For a while it looked like they | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
might have their day, but ultimately to moments of sheer brilliance from | :14:03. | :14:07. | |
two expensive individuals proved to be all the difference. It's been a | :14:08. | :14:16. | |
long time since Wembley heard the Black Cats sing, but they were far | :14:17. | :14:18. | |
from here just to make up the numbers. City fans were already | :14:19. | :14:27. | |
previewing celebrations as orderly overwhelming favourites can. After | :14:28. | :14:36. | |
nine minutes, city were stunned into silence. Sunderland were going to | :14:37. | :14:40. | |
savour this moment. They were well-organised and | :14:41. | :14:48. | |
defiant, and what almost in again, but this time unsuccessfully. But if | :14:49. | :14:57. | |
ever they needed a reminder of the quality Manchester City possess, | :14:58. | :15:04. | |
this goal showed them. And while Sunderland's defence was still | :15:05. | :15:10. | |
reeling, they were floored again. Sunderland did not stop fighting, | :15:11. | :15:13. | |
but right at the end, all hopes were crushed. Manuel Pellegrini was | :15:14. | :15:19. | |
tasked with winning five trophies when he took over last summer. Just | :15:20. | :15:29. | |
for Mac to go, then. -- just four. So Sunderland's 41 year wait for a | :15:30. | :15:36. | |
trophy continues. They are battling relegation in a league. On this | :15:37. | :15:39. | |
showing though, fans have plenty of reasons to be optimistic. | :15:40. | :15:45. | |
In the Premier League Tottenham have a lead in their game. Aston Bill are | :15:46. | :15:57. | |
happy at four goals past Norwich. Just a couple of seconds left in all | :15:58. | :16:03. | |
three games. England's cricketers are playing in Antigua. They won the | :16:04. | :16:08. | |
toss and chose to bowl. The West Indies gave a relatively | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
poor batting performance. Stephen Parry took three wickets on his | :16:14. | :16:19. | |
Dubuque. England need 160 to win but have lost two wickets already and | :16:20. | :16:26. | |
are 55 42. Rumour Conroy has a two shot lead as | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
he prepares to tee off in half an hour's time in the final round in | :16:31. | :16:35. | |
Florida. He shot a third round of 69 to lead the field going to the final | :16:36. | :16:40. | |
day. If he wins in Florida it will be his first PGA Tour title since | :16:41. | :16:49. | |
2012. Ronnie O'Sullivan is playing in the final. | :16:50. | :16:52. | |
He is seven frames to one ahead with the evening session still to come. | :16:53. | :17:03. | |
There is more throughout the evening on | :17:04. | :17:04. |
