6:06 pm
father danbury says he helping to bury the remains found in mass graves across the town. we had to move to the queue. i think that neither i, nor anyone who lives in ukraine who witnessed the walk and understand what happened . so now we are surviving on adrenalin. but after everything that's happened, i'm worried that the off the medical loss, decades 6 months on ukrainians are fighting for survival against an enemy that is unwilling to retreat. what all is going on, the president lensky has been hosting virtual summits on chrome and theresa, what's been happening there? well, most certainly, it's the creamy and platform where the presence of over 60 representatives from across the world were precedent for landscape. see about how he's going to fight and work to try to restore ukrainian control over crimea. we heard a prime minister boy johnson denouncing human rights abuses, increment denouncing the next agent of premier. we also heard from the president of
6:07 pm
the european commissioner, or sort of under a 1000000 saying that crimea has been used as the military base to test the cool method that new russia you. this in other occupied territories. crimea had been on the news line lately, mostly because of theories of explosions that have been ongoing on the peninsula. there you present government has not acknowledged that this are a tax and being carried by the u premium forces. we have heard the security analysts are saying that special forces could be behind it or party sounds who are carrying gallery left style attacks on the crime in peninsula. but most suddenly, there each, this show that there's a counter offensive to try to recover that crime in pending flat. it's unlikely the russia will plan to leave at crimea anytime soon. it's become a crucial destination, not only for to it, but also for supporting troops. and be attacks that are currently being carried out in ukraine. so suddenly this meeting that is ongoing is important. it shows the
6:08 pm
support of the rest of the world towards ukraine claim on crimea, but at this point, so when you talk to i notice here, it's highly unlikely that anything could be achieved anytime soon or towards the live. there, thanks very much. turns by the in keith on hundreds of people, including politicians, have done that in moscow for the funeral, a pro criminal political commentator during dinner. she was the daughter of a prominent russian ultra nationalist and was killed in a car bombing. that's russia, blames on ukraine. not even baba has this report. alexander duke, in listening to tribute to his daughter, daria duke was killed on saturday in a car bomb attack near moscow. a father says she recently told him she felt like a warrior. not the price that we have to pay can be justified by only $1.00 thing, the highest achievement victory. she lived in the name of victory and she died in
6:09 pm
the name of victory, our rush and victory, our truth, our orthodoxy, our country and our empire. daria took in her was $29.00 and worked as a commentator on a nationalist, russian television channel, just 2 days after the attack, russia's federal security service or fs, be named a ukrainian woman as the perpetrator. it said she'd rented an apartment in the same building as do gonna, ukraine has said it does not resort to tara tactics, blaming russia's own government or security operations. it typically came, takes months or even years, often never for a political mergers to be sold. and yet a f as b, the russia securities, those claims have done as a matter of hours. and i think everyone looking the kind of details that providing, ah, you've come to the conclusion, there's nothing credible about the story that they have put together. how much influence dugeon has over president vladimir putin has been the subject of
6:10 pm
speculation inside and outside russia. what's clear is he and his daughter expressed far right. nationalist views in public and strongly supported the invasion of ukraine. but they've both been placed on international sanctions lists for spreading misinformation. witnesses say, alexander duke in decided at the last minute to travel in a different vehicle from his daughter, social media footage showed him looking on with the car still in flames. you, president putin has never publicly supported him, but he's called the car bomb. evil and posthumously awarded duke enter the order of courage medal. nadine baba al jazeera u. a group of e u countries that share borders with russia. want to band tourists from them. russia and it's ex, navy cullen, and grad borders. your european union members, finland estonia, latvia in lithuania, in poland, all 5 and now pushing for an e. u wide band on russian tourist entire block band, russian plains, from 1st face falling moscow's invasion of ukraine in february. and that made
6:11 pm
countries with land borders into popular holiday destinations for visitors from russia. a russian license plates on luxury cars are a common sighted finland busy. a biggest airport. and finland for a minister says it's become a transit country bands expected to be disgusted. next week's meeting of e you for a ministers. not sure why we should should not be able to travel. i think everybody should travel because when you see how other peaceful, confused leave, then you become more peaceful to we. busy oh, wait, this stop and once or normal situation in all the world and in our country do in the ukraine to let's begin, robert then chesko la, he's a senior fellow at dia, casimir,
6:12 pm
pulaski foundation, in poland. also a former post diplomatic native official. john just now from brussel. so welcome to the program and say you can't fly, of course, from russia to europe became get round it. and so just said, apparently the car pocket, helsinki airport is brim full of russian, causes russian tourists fly on from there into as somewhere else in europe. and that's angry. many people isn't it? of course, and you know, just just your viewers watch to your excellent report from, from ukraine. i mean, the 1st reason why this a tourist visas should not actually be issue the close to you is that you know it's, it's a moral is not right for the ukrainians to begin sort of seeking shelter in a bunch of those, etc, and, or suffering from you know, being attacked every day. a lot of horrific war crimes who committed while the russians in very large numbers are basically, you know, taking this nation's in the south of europe on the beaches and so on enjoying
6:13 pm
a good life. this is, this is, this is partly moral. and the problem is particularly acute for those countries who are in deep neighbors by the way, the countries who supports the fries of tories, these as it's but larger. this also check robotics for back jeffrey benmark. so this country's kind of, you know, appealing to you a solid narrative to the problem is that once a single visa is issued by another country, should be on there by others. but it should not be happening for ethical reasons. there was, like i said, let me just jump in as a little wait here and others want the you to not to a total ban across the whole block, a union wide van if you like. but it's not likely to happen, is it? but at the moment, let's be, let's be honest, it doesn't look like there is a full support. so there is not enough be in solidarity. and that's, you know, and the problem is also, it's, the arguments used are somewhat less misleading even by, you know, sorry to say,
6:14 pm
but like, you know, mr. morale, who said this is about a total, but this is not about the top of band because as it happens, most of those countries who are the strongest for the tourist visas, freeze of the same ones. what issue the greatest number of humanitarian beasts, for instance, for the position. and he does for those who need to access for many terry browns, et cetera, that would not stop. this is about bringing also the message that the mass of russia, people that you know into the wall, you have to feel it as the ukrainians feel because they are basically denying, as if you had anything to do with them. their social security consideration. because mall this housing of russian tories as various people. we see the large bay area. it will happen then to engage in some, at some even terrorist attack. so there's a whole range of arguments why the tories, these us should not be, should they ok? european union celebrity, so if the you do not act in the way that lithuania and others wanted to be
6:15 pm
threatened to go it alone. do you think that slightly to happened, that the lights of estonia, latvia, lithuanian of poland and finland will enforce it alone? well, it is possible because you know that very, very, very strong feelings. just something is not right from countries. what have the most attractive cannot get in the cross even though i said they have all of the arguments well they fight, they want to avoid it. and you know, certainly it's actually, you know, it's almost kind of illegal to, to, to do with about you blessing but they have, they doing the right thing. busy so i hope there is a proper debate about this on the basis of re fax, and this is what those countries are asking for. so, you know, at the moment we are in the middle of the discussion. i agree with you. it's, there is quite a bit of opposition, but again, one of the arguments i had by everybody and seriously considered our think through so many one option. and that should be the tories, theresa, you know, these,
6:16 pm
those trees while the communitarian access is continues to be provided. all right, be interesting. see how it pans out to roberts shall. thanks very much for joining us here. and i was there. thank you. plenty more, stella had all the news are including shanghai is waterfront, those dark southern china faces power cut the heat waves scorches, the region, the migrants who died at sea trying to leave lebanon. the military searches for their bodies off the coast of tripoli, gods for coming up and half hour, so domestic for all in ukraine kicks off for the 1st time since the thought of the ball. ah, malaise is top caught hers up, held a guilty verdict in jail sentence against former prime minister, nancy prozac, maggi repealed against a 2020 conviction for money laundering and corruption and a 12 year prison term. prosecutors have said 4 and a half $1000000000.00 was stolen from the one m d

6:21 pm
they have been sitting up 10 here. they say that they're planning for an open sit in until the demands are met. now, this is another episode of the escalation, this time in front of the supreme judiciary council. remember these, some of the supporters that we're camping in front of the parliament for a month now? the sent. some of them have been sent here and they say that did accusing the victory system the district council being part of the corrupt system. in. on the other hand, the supreme judiciary council has opened an investigation in what is considered as threats to its task by supporters of the to the a. so the impact, the judiciary council has issued an arrest warrant against a couple leader pro. so the leader, a former law maker and prominent politician affiliated to me, up to the
