the, the, this is the, the news life from berlin guilty on all accounts. donald trump becomes the 1st us president to be convicted of a crime. a new york jury finds he falsified documents to cover up an encounter with an adult film actress. also coming up a change of policy on ukraine and us officials say president joe biden has given keith permission to use american weapons on some targets in russian penetrate the

bitterest vanity. welcome to the program. a jury in new york has found forma us presidents. donald trump guilty on old 34 counts and his harsh money trial. he was convicted of falsifying business documents to influence the 2016 presidential election by covering up a sexual encounter with an adult film. stop the decision mix trump the 1st former all sitting us president to be convicted of a crime guilty. no. so what any form a president wants to hear, and perhaps on surprisingly, not one that trump except this is a great price, is going to be november. and they know what happens here. everybody knows what

happens here. new york jury disagreed. they convicted him on over $34.00 charges of falsifying business records. we did our job. many voices out there. and the only voice that matters is the voice of the jury. and the jury has spoken. prosecute has successfully argued a trump tried to cover up and a legit affair with adult film style. stormy daniel's before the 2016 elections have use later the us as well into another election deal with the risk between democrats and republicans, is depot than ever. outside the courtroom reactions reflected that wrist. some jubilant last week, gerald the took me back to the others, insisting that judgment would only make this faith. and trump, of course,

strong go goes to jail, gets out or gets bell, or whatever. well, the truck still how's going to change my mind that you just got in trouble? you have a big deal. the deal for trump, it might be the former president could spend up to 4 years behind bars in years gone by criminal convictions. would spell the end of a politician's career. but in 2024, nothing is guaranteed. right, that's the bottom this from the, the correspondent benjamin a lot. as group of joining me from washington dc. benjamin. good to see you. he's trump likely to spend any time in prison now. so the charges against donald trump a so called non violent class, the felonies, those up below is level in new york. and each of these $34.00 accounts carry the possibility of several years in prison. budding conservation is not given because

this some legal experts say that it is unlikely that trump will being costs are rated given. he hasn't previously been convicted of a crime we will find out on july 11th. that's when donald trump will be sentenced. a sentencing that will happen just days before he officially becomes the presidential nominee of the republican party for the course of the question, of course, is, can he contest elections following a conviction? so is a candidate for a federal office like the presidency? donald trump is restricted only by requirements in the us constitution and the 3 requirements they're quite straightforward. so the president must be at least 35 years old. must be a natural born us citizen and must have lived in the us for at least 14 years. and this nothing on criminal convictions, so it was a convicted felon. donald trump can still run for office. and even if donald trump is sentenced to prison and wins the presidency, that would, of course, a post, a practical complications because some legal experts also say that

a resulting constitutional crisis would require, for example, that his sentence be suspended so that he could still fulfilled his duties as the nation's chief executive, trump uh has said that the rear of that date is going to be on november the 5th we he bleed volts due to this conviction. so there's a lot that can happen until the presidential elections in november. we see that donald trump and joe by now still neck or neck, if we'll look at polls and we just need to remember here that. and donald trump even saw his support increase of the full sets of criminal a indictments last year. so it would not be surprising, very support also increases and that's also what we seen in ford referred from trump's campaign, and that they manage to financially capitalize it. this also, as they did on news impeachment, because just minutes after this verdict was announced, the trump campaign send out a fundraising, emailing,

which trump. a in my political prison on the online portal that the trump campaign use us to accept it. donations was also down possibly to a lot of the traffic. so we can expect that the trump campaign will manage to financially capitalize a from today's a verdict as well. and we are also expecting an appeal to this verdict, do we already know on what grounds the dumps legal team is indeed prepared to to appeal. he will almost certainly not have to begin serving any sentence until after all of these appeals done. and that was certainly take place even off to the november election possible arguments that his lawyers could use in their guests to have this verdict thrown out could be a stormy. daniel's testimony, for example, it his lawyer as coal, irrelevant to the case. it could also be the statute itself because to convict trump, the jewelry had to find he had falsified records with the intent to commit or conceal

another crime. but it does not specify what the, the crime is. and the 3rd reason it could be the presidential immunity, well it's not clear yet which of this arguments they will use? what is clear is the donald j. trump and now being the test, former us president to be found guilty of felony crimes. this verdict indeed punches the 2024 presidential race into uncharted territory. we leave it there for the moment. the benjamin about is proved by joining us from washington dc. thanks very much. i, as we say in the united states, my officials are saying that president joe biden has given ukraine the go ahead. they use some american weapons to strike targets inside russia, but only to defend the hockey region. the decision box that reversal in policy by washington, which has restricted the use of his weapons to avoid the risk of a direct confrontation with moscow. but you, graham has been judging the us to change that seems russia launched

a new offensive of how to keep police month for ahead. of nato has also called on members to lift restrictions on the use of wisdom weapons. the domino brussels ability of alexander from nom, enjoying this not from prague where new to foreign ministers are holding an informer meeting to discuss how they coordinate ministry aid to ukraine. good morning, alexandra young started back. i believe just arrived for today's meeting. and what did you have to say in stoughton back? laid out the main topics for today's meeting and the foreign ministers will be speaking about the new defense plans that's nato is implementing. and with the special focus of course, on the east and flags that will, they will be talking about how to father advance and strength and a native partnerships with global partners. but the most important topic on the agenda is, of course, support for ukraine. and the insulting back was ask about this news coming out of

a washington that you as is a given q crane to permission to use american munitions to attack inside the russian territory solely in the area of hockey. in stoke neck, did not want to concrete. the comment on that, but he, once again the rest of that ukraine is in line with international law when it comes to it's defend itself to that ukraine has every means to defend themselves. and that also includes attacking legitimate military targets on the russian territory. that is what the installed back once again, stress here this morning. i went down to about exactly those are the, the us go ahead. do we know what exactly the us is allowing, as well, according to media reports, citing us officials, you as,

as saying that ukraine will be allowed to use american made munitions and missiles to attack russian targets over the border on the russian territory. but only in the area of har keeps. this is the largest ukraine, the 2nd largest ukranian city, and under a severe attack right now. so they will be allowed to attack russian forces and munitions depos or logistical hops. but you ask the officials are saying that they are not changing their from a position or not allowing ukraine to use the most powerful weapons they got from the us to far into the russian territory. that's so they will be not to be allowed to use the long range ms. uh, so called at tech comes at to strike inside a russian territory. and those may saygos good tips, targets

a 300 kilometers away. so they are here not an option on the table, but good this move, but the us paved the way for other countries, particularly here in europe to get on board. i think so, because of course, many nato countries are looking to the u. s. for leadership and the pressure has been growing on, both of them were still imposed restrictions on their weapons deliveries to ukraine to change their position. and we have heard from poland, from friends, from others. they are now ready to allow ukraine to use the weapons that they had delivered to attack the russian targets inside russian territory. so we'll see whether there will be any more announcements we need for their, for the moment, alexander phenomena, in prod, thanks very much for that. i think he has a
