him out. welcome to the show relatives on close allies of the jail directional position leader, alexia volunteer, demanding to know more about how he died and what has happened to his body. an exiled russian newspaper is reporting that noble and his parties held at a more around 50 kilometers from the remote penal colony where he was imprisoned. authority say he died there after collapsing on friday. the supporters of alexi, nevada may have defied intimidation and arrest in russia to stage memorials and vigils nationwide. his allies say no volume, you will not be forgotten and his work will live on unknown masked man, removing flowers, left by supporters of nevada and the within seconds. new ones appear in their place . such seems have been repeated across russia with flour kiosks running out of stock. and he was a very strong person. and i think all of russia is suffering because we lost
2:02 am
such a hero. support as have carried on expressing the sorrow and anger despite a rest and intimidation. more than 400 people have been detained since the vigils began on friday. why is it important for you to own or whose memory it's important in the 21st century to live in a democratic country? a note in a dictatorship, flowers and condolences are piling up. also, a russian embassy is around the world. and berlin members of the punk band pussy riot stays the protest. blame in the kremlin for nevada and these death. i think it's a big blow for pressing opposition. it's going to be really difficult for us to united because whether, if you loved number on the or didn't, there were people who disagreed with him. a number of things. he was our guiding
2:03 am
star and he and people would define their positions and tactics and political views depending on what of only does in says the valid supporters vowed to continue his mission, even though held for change in russia, has faded with his death at the same time they say that's exactly what the kremlin wants, everyone to think like is a senior fellow on the council on foreign relations. and columbus for the washington post was novalis finally still waiting to see his body. i asked him what the delay might say, a button of all these dead. a small, how do you say there's a cover up long on by the crumbling. they don't want us to know how no of all he died. and so it makes a lot of sense to reach the obvious conclusion, which is that he was murdered. i mean, he was certainly put in was certainly responsible for his death, no matter what happened, even if it was just of quote, unquote,
2:04 am
natural causes from being tortured in solitary confinement and sense of is penal colony north of the arctic circle. but, you know, i think the fact that they're not releasing the body and they're not saying what the cause of death was. i think that leads us to believe that he probably was not right. murdered. and probably i put in the orders and we have heard condemnation from world leaders and surprisingly, placing the blame on rush as president. but is there actually a chance sitting around his desk could realistically trigger some kind of action and, and if so, then wat divani stats are definitely a trigger action. i don't think anything is gonna happen in russia because put in his police state as to is too strong to be challenged right now. but there's a lot that we in the west can do to stop putting in ukraine where he is very vulnerable. one of the ukrainians are fighting very hard. i think 2 things need to be done. first. there is $300000000000.00 in frozen russian funds. you know,
2:05 am
was primarily in belgium. they should be sent right away to ukraine so that you create and use the rest of money to defend itself. that would be a big load of putting on. the other thing of course, that needs to be done is the us house of representatives needs to approve the $60000000000.00 a package for you claim that was already approved in the sign it. if we don't do those things, then put and well, literally get away with murder. and then what about for the opposition movement within russia itself? do you think that is able to recover from the loss of such a permanent leader? or? i think it's going to be very tough for the opposition leader in russia for the opposition movement and russia for the time being because again, pollutant has very complete control. but we should not assume that control the last row or any more than the soviet union. last forever turn, the always comes to an end, sooner or later. and i think the best way to hasten the demise of this evil couldn't reach him. and russia is to defeat the resume and ukraine. a military
2:06 am
defeat and ukraine would be a sharp blow to put in, and it would here standing at home and cook until they lead others in the kremlin to look for different leaders for the future. whereas if put in the wins and ukraine, he's going to be strengthened at home, but also abroad, and he's going to be a much greater threat not only to, to europe, but to his own people. and then just briefly max. um, what about the upcoming election in russia? well, what will nevada his death mean for that? well, the upcoming election, quote unquote, as a joke, obviously it's not, it's not a real election. there is no choice. there was one anti war candidate and couldn't refuse to let them on the ballot. and now it may very well have killed the volley, even though nevada he wasn't able to run, but nevertheless, putting maybe eliminating all opposition. i had of the sham election so it's obviously not, not on the level, it's obviously not
2:07 am
a real action. and i think it's pretty hard to know what people and rusher actually is making beneath the surface because i'm sure there is actually a lot of discontent. but it's very hard to express that openly because you see what happens to people who challenge put and they either wind up in jail or in the more my experience senior fellow at the council on foreign relations and a columnist for the washington post. thank you. so much for speaking to us here on the delhi. thank you. so and the aftermath of nevada is death. russia says it has taken full control of the eastern ukrainian. tied up as these are relentless on slow forest ukrainian troops to retreat to avoid being surrounded. president flooding his landscapes as spinning western support as costing lives on the battlefield. on dated footage, released by ukraine's 3rd assault for gain shows intense fighting europe discussed between firefights ukrainian soldiers hunker down in a coke plant on the edge of town. they reported last refuge for withdrawing

2:09 am
people forth. so the idea so we are so i'm in a fight to fight and said he's confident ukraine will get the aid it needs. but he didn't say when on over to the middle east now where the last one house ministry in gaza says is really attacks. have killed more than 100 post indians. in the last day negotiators and guitars, a ceasefire talks of stalled, while the united nation says god, the 2nd biggest hospital is no longer functioning. meanwhile, israel is refusing to call off, apply and defensive against the southern city of russell. that strikes across garza
