a conclusion of cases coming to a conclusion of sorts. there could be in appeals are not completely final but in the last 30 minutes donald trump has been ordered to pay more than $350 million in his fraud case. already been effectively found guilty of inflating the prices of his assets to get more favourable terms for loans. thejudgment from to get more favourable terms for loans. the judgment from the judge, lots of detail in the air. the headline that figure of $350 million to be paid by donald trump. let's go to our correspondent. talk us through at thejudges to our correspondent. talk us through at the judges decided here. inaudible... boli and of course is the staggering amount ordered to pay, 350 354 $9 million. that is the

attorney general ill—gotten gains to get more favourable loan terms and interest rates. his two sons who are running this company here at trump tower where i am, they were each fined $4 million each. then the order went on to discuss their ability to continue working in this industry. donald trump was banned from serving as an officer, a director of a new york corporation for three years. in the verdict also bars him and his company from seeking loans from any institution registered with the new york financial services for three years. that is a blow to his company, being unable to secure any loans for the next three years. and it goes on to also bar his two sons eric and don juniorfrom doing business in new york for two years. while this

verdict doesn't dissolve donald trumps assets, the business certificates come the business were under as he was potentially facing it does set up oversight of the company. there is currently in place in an independent monitor. she will stay on for at least three years, the judge stay on for at least three years, thejudge ordered. thejudge stay on for at least three years, the judge ordered. the judge also wants a separate independent director of compliance to be installed. those are the headlines from this verdict. certainly a large amount of money that donald trump has been ordered to pay, especially when combined with the other penalties he has faced in other civil trials. we penalties he has faced in other civil trim-— penalties he has faced in other civil trials-_ civil trials. we only got this in the ast civil trials. we only got this in the past 30 — civil trials. we only got this in the past 30 minutes - civil trials. we only got this in the past 30 minutes or - civil trials. we only got this in i the past 30 minutes or so. what civil trials. we only got this in - the past 30 minutes or so. what does happen next, are we expected to hear from donald trump, an appeal, what happens in the process?—

legal challenges he's facing. before he can appeal he does have to put this large fine into a trust with a court to ensure that he will pay it. now it opens up many questions about how donald trump will pay this fine. nada twafik, thank you for that. i know you will be bringing us the latest in the hours. the latest from russia. what we will do is take a quick look at what we know about his final movements. he was being held at a penal colony and russia's arctic circle. 0njanuary penal colony and russia's arctic circle. on january the 9th penal colony and russia's arctic circle. 0njanuary the 9th he posted this image on social media... in the punishment so walks at 630 in the

morning. listen to this detailed... he says these walks are at 630 in the morning. however the prison says he fell ill during his walk around one p:m.. these images are from yesterday, thursday. you can see in a moment seeming to be cracking jokes. his appearing by a video link for testimony. jokes. his appearing by a video link fortestimony. friday, jokes. his appearing by a video link for testimony. friday, the prison service says he felt unwell after walk. they say he immediately lost consciousness. in emergency team had been called, try to resuscitate him without success. and "the emergency doctors declared the prisoner dead

for the cause of death is being established. "that is all we have been told so far. no independent cooperation as yet. alexei navalny�*s death is the latest of kremlin critics to have died under putin politics. suspicions around navalny�*s death are fuelled by the fate of other putin critics. last august, evgeny prigozhin died — the mercenary who led an armed mutiny in russia. he was killed in a plane crash. the kremlin said it was an accident. in 2015, leading opposition politician boris nemtsov was killed, shot on a bridge in the shadow of red square. again, the kremlin denied any role. and it's notjust inside russia. in 2018, sergei skripal, who spied for britain, was targeted in salisbury, along with his daughter. novichok, the same nerve agent once used on navalny, nearly killed them.

and in 2006, there was the death of alexander litvinenko, a former intelligence officer and fierce critic of putin, poisoned with radioactive polonium in london. but speak to in economist and professor in the chicago public policy. thank you for coming on the program. policy. thank you for coming on the rouram. ., ~' policy. thank you for coming on the rouram. ., ~ ,, ., policy. thank you for coming on the rouram. ., ~ i. ., ., program. thank you for having me. what are your _ program. thank you for having me. what are your feelings _ program. thank you for having me. what are your feelings today? - program. thank you for having me. what are your feelings today? a . what are your feelings today? because it's a very, as a person i first met alexei navalny 20 years ago when i wrote a column about one of his first political campaigns. he had become a friend, we sometimes exchange messages. i'm totally devastated by this news.- exchange messages. i'm totally devastated by this news. when was the last time _ devastated by this news. when was the last time you _ devastated by this news. when was the last time you had _ devastated by this news. when was the last time you had contact - devastated by this news. when was the last time you had contact with l

in good spirits despite terrible conditions for that lesson 24 hours later she took the stage with tears in her eyes and defiance in her voice calling on people gathered here to do something to bring vladimir putin to justice for what she said he had done notjust to her family but to her country. i just family but to her country. i 'ust want to reiterate i family but to her country. i 'ust want to reiterate that i family but to her country. i 'ust want to reiterate that point]- family but to her country. ijust want to reiterate that point you made there because it's extremely poignant. you spoke to herjust last night. what was her assessment about how he was doing at that point? i asked her like everybody asked her, how is he doing. i known him since 2010. she said is doing great. i said, really? and she said everybody asked me this and i've been trying to find a short way to answer this. ifinally to find a short way to answer this. i finally found to find a short way to answer this. ifinally found a to find a short way to answer this. i finally found a formula, i settled on a thing to say to people, what i want to say to people is he doing

a bring you this... this verdict is a manifest injustice plain and simple for the politically fuelled witchhunt that was designed to take down donald trump before letitia james ever stepped into the the attorney generals office was up countless hours of testimony proved there wrongdoing, no crime and no victim given the great state we trust the overturn of this egregious sentence and end this relentless persecution against my client. that is a statement from a spokesperson for president donald trump. confirming effectively that there will be in appeal and maintaining his innocent, just as a reminder the judge had already decided otherwise at the end of the trial previously, the civil trial. this announcement since we've been on air is the judges decision effectively for what will happen now, which is including this $350 million fine and things

like donald trump not being able to serve as a director of a company for a number of years. we've got another statement that has just come in from donald trumpjunior. we've reached the point where your political beliefs combined with what venue your case is heard other primary deterrence of the outcome, not the facts of the case! it's truly sad what happened to our country and i hope others see it before it's too late to correct course! so reaction there from donald trumpjunior. we've heard from donald trump only via a legal spokesperson describing this as a manifest injustice. just to bring you up to date with what the judge has decided. to bring you up to date with what thejudge has decided. 350 million dollars is what donald trump will

have to pay. this is the wording of the document they are that we're seeing. thejudge released this in the last hour or so. a couple of interesting things along with those penalties to pay for that band from doing business and affectively being a director of a corporation in new york for three years. restrictions on taking out loans to. donald trump sons ordered to pay $4 million each, roughly. and that three year banned from doing business in new york. new york of course is where he started his property empire after inheriting a considerable sum. his business dealings in new york and other areas as well. that's the first reaction we're getting to thatjudges decision. we will be getting more as we get it from new york. around the

the first thing we're doing under this accord is all of us that have products like at microsoft, designer which you can use to create images or video or audio using ai. it embeds the data so anybody can see when they display something like a picture how was it created, what product was used, when was it created. it tells somebody this was created. it tells somebody this was created by ai. were going to have to do more than that because the embedding invisible watermarks as well so people strip out that data well so people strip out that data we still have the ability to identify it for what it is. something that al created rather then say captured by the bbc in a video or an audio recording. there's two other things that the support does. it brings the industry together to detect deep fakes and microsoft we launched a website so that any candidate who is a victim of a deep fakes can report it. we

can analyse it, share that information with the rest of the tech sector and we can't remove it from our properties as we will do at microsoft without the other thing that's important about this is it really unites the industry behind the importance of public education. ultimately we will need to lean in, will need to work with civil society. were all going to have to do more to educate people that may be one of the best defences to this put him in the taiwanese elections there were some deep fakes but people were prepared for the as a result but they were not deceived. 0ur security correspondent frank gardner is in munich. talk us through what you understand of this accord. that talk us through what you understand of this accord.— of this accord. that interview that we did with _ of this accord. that interview that we did with brad _ of this accord. that interview that we did with brad smith _ of this accord. that interview that we did with brad smith from - we did with brad smith from microsoft, he was one of several industry leaders in heads at a joint press conference for that which i have to say is a breakthrough to get

so many potentially rival lists companies all sitting at the same companies all sitting at the same companies with the same joint aim. you mention tiktok, open iri, google, microsoft, adobe have all agreed that the risk of degenerative ai being subverted by maligned actors does pose a threat to democratic elections. and over the next course of this year more than for a billion people are due to the polls in 65 elections, 19 of which were in africa alone. the risk to those electorates coming from deep fake artificial intelligence generated fake video, fake audio is pretty profound. they are determined to head this off at the pass and stop this happening. i checked with somebody, somebody who wasn't part of their initiative and somebody who

knows a lot about the stuff i said, what do you think, he said it's a first step. they would counter that they would say, no this is may be they would say, no this is may be the fifth step. it's early days. i think we should celebrate the fact that all these companies have got together, recognise the problem and are coming up with a potential solution. in are coming up with a potential solution. , ., ., ., ., , solution. in terms of how ordinary voters will — solution. in terms of how ordinary voters will spot _ solution. in terms of how ordinary voters will spot it, _ solution. in terms of how ordinary voters will spot it, is _ solution. in terms of how ordinary voters will spot it, is there - solution. in terms of how ordinary voters will spot it, is there an - voters will spot it, is there an assessment of how well that will work? when you talk about things like invisible watermarks, i can see the logic behind captioning that and taking it off. but if people are consuming this contacts is it spreading is there any sense at work and be done there?— and be done there? there is a sense that work can _ and be done there? there is a sense that work can be _ and be done there? there is a sense that work can be done but _ and be done there? there is a sense that work can be done but i - and be done there? there is a sense that work can be done but i don't - that work can be done but i don't think they ironed it out. certainly tech professionals will find it easy to establish if something is deep fake. they are going to try to watermark this all the way through from content generation through to

distribution. you're actually right, the averagejoe like you and me when we click on stuff we need to be able to identify straightaway if it's fake. they are good be setting up a sort of depository for suspected fakes were people can report this stuff in. it's very real all this because if you think about this, the new hampshire primary recently in the united states, people got a phone call and there appeared to be the voice of their presidentjoe biden telling them not to vote and to save their vote for the november full presidential election. that was a fake. it was very convincing. 0f a fake. it was very convincing. of course the manner in which it was delivered was very convincing people will get better at this. i should point out that all of this is not totally unrelated to the story you were discussing just before that. the reported death of alexei navalny. appeal carl tey up in russia because that is really focused minds here on some of the

maligned actors coming over the internet from russia and other countries who have got a certified record of interference in elections. thank you so much for that. frank gardner. will bring you the very latest from the us without the breaking news in the last hour or so concerning donald trump and his various court cases. this is a civil one in new york. previously had already been decided that he was effectively inflating the price, the value of his assets. now the judge has released a document explaining what happens now for them and the headline effectively, donald trump has to pay over $350 million. a clearly significant song. not far off of what the prosecutors were aiming for. huge sums of money. but we have heard in the last 20 minutes

from a legal spokesperson for donald trump suggesting there will certainly be an appeal. it is not the end of that matter yet. we will get plenty more analysis on that. this is bbc news. hello there. it looks like things will be turning even milder as we head into this weekend. and where we get some sunshine, it really will feel quite spring—like. but there will be some rain in the forecast this weekend, particularly late on saturday during saturday night, and for england and wales, perhaps for sunday morning as well. so we're all into that milder air mass. as you can see, these darker orange colours introducing something a little bit warmer still as we move into saturday and sunday. but it does look like tonight, maybe a little bit cooler than it's been the last few nights. mostly dry and any thicker cloud in the north and the west,

there will be some spots of rain. and temperatures will dip close to 1—2 degrees across the far north—east of scotland. for most, though, 6—8 celsius. so saturday starts off largely fine. this weak weather front will bring a band of clouds, some spots of rain, but it's these weatherfronts moving in behind later on which will bring the more substantial rain, with stronger winds here. so quite a lot of cloud, scotland, northern england. some splashes of rain with that weak weather there. there will be some holes in the clouds to allow for some sunny spells again, but then the rain, stronger winds push into northern ireland. that spreads across the irish sea into western britain as we head into the afternoon. the temperatures could be up to 14, maybe 15 degrees in the warmest spots, but all areas will be in double figures. then through saturday evening, saturday night, that rain, wind spreads across the country. it will tend to clear from scotland and northern ireland, bar the odd shower, but it will take its time to clear away from england and wales. so it could stay quite wet by the end of saturday night across the south—east. temperatures coming down

a little bit in the north, double figures in the south. sunday, then, these weatherfronts will take their time to clear england and wales. bit of a question mark on the speed they do clear, but at the moment, it looks like it could be quite cloudy and wet to start sunday across much of england and wales. slowly, skies will brighten from the west, but there could be a hangback of that rain across parts of eastern england, east anglia and the south—east. but elsewhere, not a bad—looking day, i think, to come for sunday with some sunshine around. temperatures maybe degree or so down in the north, but again, at 14—15 degrees across the south, so well above where we should be for the time of year. into the new week, it does stay on the mild side. increasing chance of rain and stronger winds towards the end of the week, where we'll also start to see temperatures coming down a little bit.

hello, i'm lewis vaughanjones. you're watching the context on bbc news. translation: i want putin and his whole entourage, i his friends and his government to know that they will be held responsible for everything they've done to our country. make no mistake, putin is responsible for navalny's death. putin is responsible. putin and his friends fear nothing more than people that _ stand up, that speak up, that fight for freedom. . no—one can look at this regime now and not recognise it for the truly dreadful nature that it has.

0n the panel tonight, former labour mp caroline flint, partner at the brunswick group as us pollster robert moran. we have two main stories this hour. breaking news in the past hour or so — a usjudge has ordered donald trump to pay more than $350 million in a fraud case and banned the former president from conducting business in new york for three years. our other big story today — international outrage over the death of leading kremlin critic alexei navalny in jail in russia, with president biden saying vladimir putin was responsible. huge reaction from world leaders. we'll bring you that. navalny's wife, yulia, has called for the world to unite in holding what she calls the "evil" regime in moscow to account.
