monica jones. good to have you with us rights groups in russia, say police have arrested more than 400 people at memorials for opposition. leader i'll explain of on the is this at age 47 at a remote piano comp was announced on friday, nevada. these allies have confirmed his death, but say the authorities are refusing to release his body, the theme, the arctic darkness. i'll explain the valleys mother. ludmilla is trying to find her son's body. she came to the remote prison where he died only to be told his body had already been sent to the regional capital novel and his mother says the last time she saw him was in the prison. on monday he was cheerful and full of energy. and despite all the hardship didn't look like someone who was about to die

with the lack of transparency around, what caused nevada and these saw the death his allies want the authorities to release his body immediately. and they have another message shuttle really were put in, killed them, the whole world knows that it was the russian president who personally gave this order. just as it knows that alexi was never afraid of him. never stayed silent. we must not give up. this is what alexi himself called on us to do is the lowest. i want to see a, it's a message resonating with thousands of nevada and new supporters holding vigils across the country. despite arrests and intimidation by security forces. this is very sad for us old, but alexa said not to give up. we weren't give up that we weren't let them think that the one that's not true. history 1st and goodness arono side. we will definitely,

we feel very sorry for him and for our country the country is perishing with this cupid was. why is it needed? who needs it that killing their own people? far and is children stealing? i'm good. i no longer believe in the future of russia. some of the 1st to make shift memorials were removed, but others have now reappeared. defined russians are calling for answers over the death of alex see in the valley. but in the face of accusations, in worldwide condemnation, the kremlin remained silent. let's go to the munich security conference and to bring in the ceo of heritage capital funds and put in critic bill router as a very good to have you with us and you called, i'll explain of on the,

the hope for russia. well, now that he's gone, what does this mean for the future of russia and it's of position given the upcoming election as well? well, i think that the reason that couldn't killed alexia of all me, and make no mistake. that is what happened here. um, uh, the, the, the purpose of this murder is to send a message to anybody in russia who is even thinking about challenging vladimir putin. that if you challenge vladimir putin, you will be killed. and, and that message, i believe, is extremely strong message because the lexi of all me was such a, a larger than life, bigger figure, and to take the biggest person and take them down, i think is, is absolutely going to suppress and repress the russian people sadly, you say is that he's sending a message to the russian people. is he also sending a message to the international community?

you're at the munich security conference, the printer and president of a lot of mister lansky yesterday implied that it's not the incident that nevada these test was announced on the 1st day of the conference. do you think put into sending a message to the community to and if so, to what purpose or? well, it's not exactly clear what the timing is, but the but it is extra, very coincidental. but all of the major world leaders are here at the munich security conference right now at the moment that alexis, of all me was murdered by putting. and so $11.00, the theory is that some, after the war started after putting the data ukraine, the music security conference didn't allow russian officials to come here anymore. and so this was a way for putting to effectively troll the entire world. even though he's not here in person, along with his entourage, by killing alexi and of all me putting his in the head of every single person at

this conference all through the weekend. and so this is his way of saying, and you might be able to just invite me, but i don't care. i'm still in your head at what would you say to those? because there are those voices also have the security conference who say that we need to negotiate with put in we need to find a way to make peace between russia and ukraine. do you agree with them? is it possible to talk to porton a no, absolutely not potent has made it clear that there is no negotiation, that he has no capacity to compromise, to seek peace. put in is a, a war, a war monger. he is, he's a single early responsible for the invasion of ukraine. and he has no intention of doing anything other than carrying on his last 400000 of his own soldiers in this terrible exercise. and not to mention that the many tens, if not hundreds of thousands of ukrainian soldiers. and so it's, it,

you can't negotiate with somebody who doesn't want to negotiate. and, and so i think it's, it's sort of a, you know, a something put out there by proving to try to is it says to say to everybody, the negotiation is ukraine capitulating and, and that's not an acceptable solution at all. now, does the news of not all new stuff and make you worry about the face of your close friend? letting me come with uh, who's also a russian opposition policy politician accordingly setting a 25 year prison sentence inside the area. indeed. so if we look at the parallels they're, they're, they're haunting both alexi live on the invite america or more as a, we're putting opposition this. both of them were then given very long sentences and of only 19 years what america or more is that 25 years and they both were then sent to a siberian prison. both of them were put in solitary confinement,

and most of them were then transferred to even more harsh regime prison. alexi nev only has now been killed in vladimir karen moore's us probably next on the, on the, on the blog were terrified for his safety. for his wellbeing edwards, and one of the main topics of the conference for me here is to work with western leaders to try to figure out a way to free white america. and where is that? so he doesn't end up dead like alexi and of all needed. the last question, we don't have much time, but it's a personal question. many putting critics were either dying or what killed even when the knots in russia. are you worried for your own safety? well, i think that yes, of course, because we look at the situation alexi and of all me was, was the biggest and most important political character in russia, opposition, politician and putting showed no worrying about killing him. he's not worried about

the consequences because there will now be no significant consequences. and what that means is that there's no consequences to anything that booting does, including killing people like me. and so i think that putting has shown is his true face is true colors and is a very dangerous world for people like me. and anybody who oppose it putting in russia or anywhere in the world. unfortunately, why 10 heritage capital fund. uh, c o and long term coaching critic, build progress. thank you so very much for your time. thank you. now this use addition of the munich security conference reps out today with the was and gaza and ukraine topping the agenda. the head of nato assess, the russian invasion has exposed gaps in the alliances resilience with the death of alexi and of all may still resonating and the security of the free world. at the center of the munich talks, america's top diplomat stress the importance of taking part. if you're not at the

table in the international system, you're going to be on the menu to visit for me there was an optimism about the warn gauze in dire moments. we have it, i think there's an extraordinary opportunity for israel in the months ahead to actually once and for all and that cycle. and it's because there's some new facts that didn't exist before. when our efforts to make peace between israelis and palestinians, starting with the fact that virtually every our country now generally wants to integrate israel into the region to normalize relations if they haven't already done so to provide security, assurances and commitments. so that is real, can feel more safe and more secure. you train more. coming up on the 2nd anniversary was also on everyone's mind. the year of 2024 demands your response from everyone in the world. you would do not add no food

and we'll manage to make the next year's catastrophic, catastrophic paying for all the nations as well. intelligence community are aware of this. ukraine has already seated mis, with least for us to try to try to cloud reality and which the world unfortunately believes the miss the project would capture. and all that concert in a few days or weeks whenever it was, your brain is, have been holding for 724 days for nearly a week after donald trump threatening not to protect nato members who failed to meet their 2 percent of g d p. contribution germany's defense minister was up the page. i'm proud to say that this year we would spend over 2 percent of our g. d. p

on defense in germany, german chancellor, all the shots underline that commitment. yeah. yes, money that we spend now and in the future for our security copy spent elsewhere. we feel that. but i also say without security and everything else is nothing on the missions i was trying to atlantic allies in munich unit to you on security issues. they've just gotten a helpful signal from one of the most unpredictable members in his annual state of a nation address from gary and from minnesota. they to all bonds said parliament just said ross, you 5 meetings, membership in nato later this month. hungry has been the last hold out on the long way. his swedish bid for the delay opens potty blames on what it calls i'm found of claims by stockholm, that budapest just undermining democracy. of this comes as open face as a test of his hold on power. a scandal that's already prompted congress president to resign up to you is a state can control vesee. hungry is autocratic,

prison, to helping cover up sexual abuse of children and adolescents by his boss of the high ranking officials in the hon. gary and government and church have also step down to demonstrate to say they didn't believe they'll be real change at the tone. and that's what i'm going to, i don't expect anything from this government. they aren't going to change anything . they got rid of 2 people, but they will just be to other bodies put in their place that are so the government really won't change its course about the kids that bad. with old on self described pro family regime now links to a child sexual abuse case, depression is on the hon, gary and prime minister. like never so full. so you're watching dw news, that's all for us from now, but don't forget, there is always more on our social media channels on our website. that's uh, d,
