9:05 am
wind supreme be there, and the i r g c. not the president, but of course they really use this as an opportunity in any possible way to implement more pressure under society and establishing the security spear all over the country. so right you see was known as a hard line as somebody who called him the butcher of a ron, tell us a bit more about him. yeah, ramsey was a hatred, say small, many years and years as you already mentioned, who was known as a high man and for charleston on for whose role in execution of political prisoners in the late eighty's as a founding member of persecution, a common key. that's why many radians are expressing their happiness. it's not surprising. that's many social media users, right? funny to it's on course means about the incidental family. members of the victims of recent protests or the ones who lost an eye or injured posting therapy, deals celebrating the digital gracie and,
9:06 am
and you have to log on uranium for example, gathered in front of the ring, an embassy in london to celebrate. and i saw a some videos of fireworks in different locations of your own. and that's why you ran in ministry of justice and the police intelligence organizations board citizens above what they share on social media phillips. as long as i have some w as a persian service, thank you very much. and the phone and to taiwan is the president has been sworn in and began his turn by calling on china ends and military and political threats lied to pay by the known as william took office. and a ceremony attended by a 1000 so phone delegations in his innovations speech. he praised the people of taiwan for defending democracy and said that would be no concessions on freedom. lie as expected to strengthen its ties with washington and defied not ministration
9:07 am
as already welcomed is swearing in beijing times taiwan as its own territory. and views lie as a separatist is some of what he had to say during his you know, your action. i would also like to call on china to cease the political, a military intimidation against ty, one share, which i won the global responsibility of maintaining peace and stability in the taiwan straits as well as the great to regent. and ensure the world is free from the fear of war, sons of the country, analia i also w correspondent times try to in type pay what tone lie struck on badging as he began his presidency as well. yeah, i pretty strongly was. it's uh, speech from the new president of taiwan licensing the image and no real address. he said that the 2 sides of the taiwan straits and no subordinate to each other. he also said that badging need 2 quotes respects. the existence of the republic of
9:08 am
china about high ones, official name, he also said crucially that basic needs to respect the choice of tie when he's voted, says remember this is a position the in the lead up. so the january election here in taiwan badging was wanting time when he's versus against the light team because they said it was going to raise the prospect's of conflicts across this high one straits. and what we've already seen in the run up to this integration from chinese official is there's more of that sense and then more of those warnings that this new live ministration is likely to lead to a most strange environments across the taiwan strait, but elsewhere. and the speed is what we saw already was like trying to strike this balancing act. so it's hard when he's present so often have to strike at the same time. it's signaling that he was open for communication on dialogue. when paging, willing to engage with the chinese communist policy at the same time wanting um that those threats from china are in the unlikely to vanish. and that's why that's why one needs to press the head with those defends on military reforms. as well as
9:09 am
deepening partnerships with like minded democracies, even in, in an unofficial capacity like the us, like japan. and like the, you know, in recent days we've seen protests in taiwan and even fighting and ty, ones of parliament, one of the main issues he needs to address now or they won't resume. it was uh, slicing physical slicing as you mentioned inside once problem inside of a procedural or form in tie. one's problem is and what i'm really on the school was that there were a key aspect really. in fact, result from the john you re election, which was that taught a lie lie thing doesn't you present one in a simple majority of the presidency. we've just 40 percent of device that opposition candidates in total have a majority. that meant that the routing quantity of the democratic progressive policy has lost its majority in the legislature in taiwan. and that means it's going to be much hall, the folder wooden coffee for lighting,
9:10 am
the pos reforms to pos, his policy proposals, whether that's on defense or form or other issues relating to taiwan domestically now, the opposition parties and they run up to this integration. so you have really signal that they're going to hold this new governments of accounts when it comes to those domestic issues. and there are significant challenges that the new governments has to address with the domestic economy, wage suck, nation wage and equality between younger and older people. and the cost of housing as well. so it's not just china that the new president of taiwan has to deal with a course that will be front and center of his, of his concerns, but with that composition. so in the parliament, none of this is going to be an easy ride for the new president to do that because funded james say to the reporting from type day. thank you very much, james. let's have a quick look on some of the other global headlines. presidents, luis, i've been out, they are, is heading for re election in the dominican republic. the campaigned on an anti
9:11 am
immigration platform. i've been out there as promising to track down on asylum seekers and fitness construction of a role alongside the border with neighboring haiti. a different interior minister as on us, the 2 police officers killed and unrest in new caledonia coffins arrived at the military airport in the south of france. protests against voting reforms broke out in the pacific territory more than a week ago. clean up operations on the way across western europe. off the days of heavy rains have triggered widespread flooding the damage spence, the netherlands from italy, the southwest and german state of a solemn task. also seen as was flooding in 3 decades. president for the landscape term. and office would be ending if russia had not invited to crime
9:12 am
elections suspended while marshall is in force blocked. russia has been trying to undermine popular support for the landscape by running a social media campaign for fresh elections. the outbreak of war february 2022. follow to me is a landscape, a former comedian with no previous political experience before becoming president, thrust into the role of war time later go a nation and shock warmed quickly to his leadership during the way my dear ukrainians. i am again talking to you just like i promised i will provide you with updated and verified information every hour. his approval ratings shot up to 90 percent far above its pre war peak 2 years on however, many here are set up. a year ago, there were hopes for a counter offensive that would drive russia out if you crane. but now there's no end to the war. insight. tens of thousands of soldiers have died and the front line barely moved until recent russian advances. the government has passed an unpopular
9:13 am
conscription law to get more recruits all that has cost the government credibility . so lensky is approval rating slipped to about 69 percent. and the latest reputable poll from february of this year, significantly higher the leaders in the us, france, and germany. but it worrying signed for the government. no elections can legally happen until martial law ends, but russia has allegedly seized on the fact that so lensky is term would be over this month to mount the social media campaign. like with the social media means this one says traitor zalinski and po cinco in jail. we demand elections, and this 190 percent of people are against you running for a 2nd term. so lansky is portrayed is being confused, asking who is against him. things are not necessarily so blake for the landscape though. a recent poll, cited by bbc's ukraine service,
9:14 am
found 70 percent of ukrainians don't want elections while the war is going on. despite russian propaganda efforts saying something, the dw spoke to people in the capital key of about it, and found mixed feelings to 3 in the evening. we have the enemy on our doorstep. holding elections is going to cause division. that's a little bit of my liberal. it says that it is really in them. i don't want elections right now because of the war. i'm happy with our president and don't have anything to criticize him for right now and those of us, it's just not the right time for election. and the ones that have said that she is a veteran you off the i believe it's wrong to forbid the people to have their say, even during war time. and there's so many people fighting in the front lines that just wouldn't be possible physically. the physician had the hosting, we have elections that will cost a lot of money money that we don't have for drones and ammunition. so far, there's been no push from ordinary ukrainians or official pressure from ukraine's
9:15 am
allies, or even the political opposition to hold a new vote. so the landscape seems secure in his job for now. but that might change without signs of tangible progress and a war that might drag on for years to come. one from line to and of course is calculated from which i'm now joined by the w corresponding marks on the marks. how long do you think the public will back zalinski as well? yeah, you just heard in the reports. um, according to the latest pause presence and lensky has an approval rating of a roughly 70 percent of the population. and compare that to the approval rating of restoral either such as us present bite and german chests or shoals. they have an approval rating of less than 40 percent in a short period of time served. now, this rating and in my opinion,
9:16 am
does not necessarily reflect or does not necessarily mean that everybody's appreciates the political actions, the political leadership of the presence of landscape over the past 5 years. over the last 2 of more than 2 years of war. and prior to the full scale invasion, but most people here in ukraine, the construct of them will say that they are against holding collections. now that they do not want to dedicate resources and energy to campaigning. their by risk gave me a potentially political infighting, as well as russian middling in the elections, which is a very realistic risk here at the moment. we just, we just heard about that in the, in the report as well. and in addition to that, as i'm holding new elections apart from it, not being constitutional during, during martial law, would also impose a huge logistical challenge with millions of people displaced new print, millions abroad, and more importantly, a large part of the country under occupation underbrush. not to painting patients, residents or citizens or to refrain that will not be able to go. so according to
9:17 am
the constitution, as long as the, as marshall laws of health, there will be no new elections and will remain present. now russian sources are coming hard at the region and the city of got a case where you are, what's the situation the today? all right, so i'm just, yesterday we spoke to members of a reconnaissance units. the soldiers that fly recognizance drones close to the border region and into russian territory. and they told us that this, which is a situation that remains very dire. there is intense fighting russians manage to occupied the 1st and 2nd line of ukrainian defenses in an area where there are usually 3 lines of defense. and it doesn't seem according to them that they are settling in. but it looks like they are will try to keep pushing and get more territory at the moment. there is fierce fighting, returning a full turn. still, according to military, on the list is the important tactical objective for the russians to gain
9:18 am
a foothold. they are close to the rushing rear in order to regroup and potentially mount a 2nd defensive, closer to the city of hard to potentially expanding the buffer zone and bring the city of harkins within striking range for artillery. in addition to that, here on the ground in the city of ark, if the situation still remains very dire, we have explosions can be heard every day. and this is not always air defense. often times dessert impacts everything in the city that injured and killed people almost on a daily basis. not sound very good thing. so i'm sort of curious many thanks. i to any an hour, a mess of 6 weeks national election is now entering its final stages. we're going to zoom into a small district to the politically crucial state of what's up for a dish which sends ac lawmakers to delhi that's 15 percent of the parliament, the dis district of robert wright. and he is the last bastion of the narrow gun.
9:19 am
the family, the dynasty that ruled india for more than 50, it's now deli bear. it seems on the pick us mon went to rubber riley to find out whether this election could mock the political end of the gun. these we have tribute deep into the constituency of a robbery. india maybe booming, but this hammer, that top 30 house has seems to have been largely untouched by development. in the village square, we come to me. she is 18 and we have cost to vote for the 1st time that they have been up. so now i know a lot when elections are due and they need our votes. politicians come to us like beggars so long ago. they promised those good roads, electricity, bicycles, to go to school and jobs. so they, they knew that. but once they, when we never see them again, because i wonder that they will be more that's coming. he belongs to the dialect
9:20 am
community, the lowest level of the richard tend to cost system. she said she always dreamed of becoming a police officer, but then coveted, and she had to drop out of school. that says, i had the, we need a politician who takes care of everyone, both rich and poor. but you should find out if villages have roads, sewers, and scores you should find out. if kids from poor families are able to go to school or not. with joined to contain through as the better. oh, but rather really reach us. it's pete brianca. guntee is fighting hard to keep this constituency of how many pests in her mother sonia re presented throughout. but really for the past 20 years now, priyanka done do once to ensure that her brother rep who is subsea tier in between . riley's, she stops for a quick interview. i am fighting for what we believe and i'm fighting for the
9:21 am
democratic country. i'm fighting for the rights of people, not just fighting for bad the preamp i've done to you still pop to dine rubber? 80. so as her family, which has given in the 3 prime minister. but this sent to left congress potty has thrown that since the rice of prime minister never end remo d, i think go in the last 10 years of mr. moore. these rules we have seen the progressive weakening of democracy. we have seen of policies which are from the pool and of what form of the ordinary posted. so i think we're really fighting for the fundamentals of our nation on which our nation was been told in the last elections rather, really emerge. does congress as a loan outpost and what top reddish india most populated? state that sense? 80 parliamentarians to the capital effect. then the ruling handle
9:22 am
national. let's be g. p one over 60 of those states. you and you why pete congress of the public to come up in india northern he knew heartland, notably, it'd be 2 piece candidate for robbery was a long time congressman, to until you switch sides in 2018. call god, we go. the villagers and poor people are with the wp. what ought to be and reach people know that the countries and save hands with mr. mowdy as well. so people know that their savings are safe with mr. mo. data. how does the key guarantees a tucked him? what did you do this? back in the village, coming in to a friend's pro, to the fields, to pick mangoes. like many of the india's 18000000 1st time voters coming isn't excited to vote. she believes politicians live in their own words, making her votes meaningless. and i'm now joined by the daily beer and she's not
9:23 am
gonna pay this month so far that report for us on the us. the consistency of the already a goes to the polls today. what do you think? who's going to lead the race that this indian vote to sketch up? pretty unpredictable, both parties to the beach a p and congress have a hot call fan base there. but then on the ground be also found bow to at, to see and tight and come and see tendencies. so it's really hard to predict, but maybe we can take a little bit of a q from the congress party. they way to, to the very last moment, which for us may search to actually fire rock. we've gotten the from this constituency the senior congress. lead is also running for a 2nd seat in parliament from a constituency in the house of india, where he's seems short to win. and obviously there were full, it's within congress. that's winning. rubber really might not sole possible. so they wait until the very last moment. and really here in raffle really that isn't
9:24 am
a legacy vote for the gun. nice because it might just be the case that they lose this 2nd big family best chair and. and this crucial northern indian heartland in the last election. so in 2019 they lost a me t, which is right next door to where all the really to the beach. i p it both raw who's done the new thing. it. and it might just be so that the same thing is happening and rubber rainy. but then again, the indian, both us are and predictable. now, how representative is a young 1st time both of like a community who we just saw in your report. and i've seen quite this illusion of the how the representatives of a for india is young voters. i mean, just look, it's a nice guy. she had to drop out of school after 10th grade due to financial constraints. she isn't able to find a job. she did some tutoring classes under of governments came by the next the money to, for instance, trevor to the next biggest city to look for

a job. her family is living off with have programs by the state. each member of the family is entitled to 5 to the grams of grain per month. that is sustaining them. but there is just no appointments ability this time and he is not participating in the escrow story. and that is true for many of india, 18000000 1st time voters. so it wouldn't surprise me that by the end when we get the results on. so on 4th of june, that we also learned that many of these for it's time votes us to actually not the cost of only because of the fusion made with politics looking more broadly, districts around a voting lots of states today. sandra today and really old eyes are on top, reddish, or u. p for short because it does send ag parliamentarians to the national parliament and the genuine, the saying goes, whoever performs well in u. p is most likely to form the next government today. 14 seats up from graphs and
