Video: Welcome to Nulandistan: Propaganda and the crisis in Ukraine - GRTV

This full length GRTV documentary looks at the fictitious land of Nulandistan that has been constructed out of Ukraine.The GRTV documentary deconstructs Nulandistan and the propaganda of the Obama Administration, the US Department of States, US officials, and their allies about the crisis in Ukraine and takes a look at their growing frustration towards the Russian media, particularly RT, for challenging their account of the events on the ground in what they have declared is an intensifying information war.

The full length documentary starts by looking at the self-benefiting description of the EuroMaidan protests that US officials have used and how it has grossly diverged from reality. Then the Odessa Massacre is deconstructed for audiences.

The documentary then looks at the situation in East Ukraine, including the violence and referenda. The events in East Ukraine are then contrasted to the positions of US officials and Russia.

Water-energy crisis threatens earth’s future - UN

Craving for water and energy will swell in the near future, amid surging populations and economies. This increase could badly strain earth's limited resources, says the UN.

"Demand for freshwater and energy will continue to increase over the coming decades," said a UN report published on the eve of World Water Day, "This increase will present big challenges and strain resources in nearly all regions."

This time the UN is drawing attention to both water and energy resources as they, according to the report, are “tightly interlinked and highly interdependent.”

“To obtain water requires energy, and to produce energy requires water,” it says.

According to the report, nearly 768 million people worldwide remain without access to safe water and 2.5 billion live without proper sanitation. It also adds that the number of people “whose right to water is not satisfied” could be nearly 3.5 billion. In addition, globally more than 1.3 billion people still lack access to electricity and around 20 percent of the world's aquifers today are depleted.

The report also makes predictions about the future influence of water on the global population.

Global water demand will be increased by some 55 percent by 2050 mostly due to growing demands from manufacturing (400 percent), thermal electricity generation (140 percent) and domestic use (130 percent) as farming, construction, drinking, cooking, washing and sewerage will require more potable water.

Senior UN expert calls for Haiti cholera victims compensation

A UN-appointed expert has publicly disagreed with the world body and called for "full compensation" for the victims of a cholera epidemic in Haiti.

Gustavo Gallon also said in his report that "those responsible" for the outbreak should be punished.

Mr Gallon is a UN-appointed expert on human rights in Haiti.

Evidence suggests UN peacekeepers introduced cholera to Haiti in 2010, but the world body has rejected compensation claims.

The outbreak - which has killed more than 8,300 people and infected hundreds of thousands - has been blamed on leaking sewage pipes at a UN base.

The UN has never acknowledged responsibility for the epidemic, arguing that it is impossible to pinpoint the exact source of the disease.
