The Russian Ambassador to Australia, Dr Alexey Pavlovskydenies, denies any plans to invade Ukraine

Although, Russian Priminister Vladimir Putin, says that Donetsk and Luhansk are independent.

This has sparked concerns that a full-scale war may begin.

Journalist Ben Arvis, says that the crisis is beginning to dangerously escalate.

“This crisis is now starting to reach the scale of the Cuban Missile Crisis,”
he says.

In an exclusive interview with Ticker News, News Anchor Holly Stearnes, spoke to Dr Pavlovsky, about the border tensions with Russia and Ukraine.

There are reports the United States has intelligence to suggest Moscow has given the order to attack Ukraine.

This intelligence follows earlier comments from Joe Biden indicating Putin has decided to stage a war.

It is being cautioned that the orders could always be withdrawn, or it could also be a case of misinformation designed to mislead the West.

Should we be concerned?

Earlier, the US Secretary of state Antony Blinken says the extension of Russian military drills in Belarus made him more worried about an imminent invasion of Ukraine.

Stearns asked Dr Pavlovsky if he should be worried?

In response, he said Russia has been witnessing many predictions of a so-called imminent Russian invasion of Ukraine, yet it has been proved false so far.

“By now, everybody should know better than to believe information based on US intelligence,”
he tells ticker news.

Dr Alexey Pavlovsky says Russian troops are not on Ukraine’s border.

“I wonder what we should do to make NATO comfortable… should we fly to the moon or what?”
One reality on what’s going on in the Russian territory is the planned military drills, which have been tailored according to a rather tense international situation,”
he says.

Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.

The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.

The government offers generous rebates and tax breaks to international productions, making it an attractive proposition for filmmakers looking to maximise their budgets.

Despite the recent intake of Hollywood productions down under such as ‘The Fall Guy’ and ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’, Aussie independents are still finding the space to carve their own creative path.

Rob Fantozzi joined the program to discuss the latest in Hollywood, and showcased his own upcoming project – ‘Omerta‘. #featured

American home prices are rising at faster pace now than in the last 20-years.

A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.

Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.

On top of that, home price growth so far this decade is on the verge of surpassing all the growth seen in the 2000s.

Many experts believe this decade’s housing market frenzy was ignited by a perfect storm — the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic triggering an unprecedented rush among buyers.

Tom Hutchens, the Executive Vice President of Production at Angel Oak Mortgage Solutions joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
