11:05 am
quite huge among the ruling party sort of a militant which means that she, i be able to start again, not because she's going to be prosecuted at the morgan because being munity, she has, as vice president got my, allow her to stand for the next election, so in that respect, ah, her position was still was still quite fragile in tensile. oh much can the prosecutor prove this cause of garage because at the moment they haven't shown any any evidence so far is just accusation that she denies. so at the moment she has a great deal of popularity, but will many people, but she's also going to be vice in figure. ah, are some breaking news to tell you about in britain's former ambassador to myanmar has been jailed for one year over a visa breach, vicky barman was arrested a week ago. the military rulers accused her of staying at an unregistered address in a town outside her home city of young god. her husband has also been jailed for a year for helping her move. armand served as ambassador from 2002 to 2006. as
11:06 am
speak to tony chang in bangkok, monitoring the situation in yan ma force one year in jail for violating integration . last sony that seems like a harsh sentence. it does seem very hudson's and i think the fact that she was arrested in the 1st place. so what really, i think most people would regard as a minor immigration infringement. her visa apparently was dependent upon her being a resident at an address in yang, gone where she lives with her husband. they had spent the last year, apparently in shan state, at a different address to the property, also and by her husband, according to the authorities, that is a serious infringement of those immigration terms. they were sentence and they were arrested a week ago. they was sentenced today we understand from relatives of her husband to a year in jail. she for the immigration offences and he for aiding and abetting her in those immigration offences. we understand the sentence was,
11:07 am
was placed in st. prison court. we saw she was being held in same prison jail, which is the place at the young gotten the maximum security prison where most of the political prisoners held conditions. we understand already not very good at all . we think that's where she will remain. and i think the concern is for many people who know her friends and relatives inside young gone and outside that she will become a pawn for the military to use it as they have used other foreign furnace. they've detained since the military coup. possibly in part because the british government put more sanctions in place against businesses related to military genta last week . and that may become part of the equation in getting her liberty. but at the moment, as far as we understand, she will be retained in santia jail for another year. and tony an additional
11:08 am
sentence for the deposed leader on france, which she yes, sir, 3 more years in jail. we understand the court in napa door announcing that on top of the 17 years that she's already serving this was for electoral fraud. again, accusations from the military. done to that there was massive fraud in the, the election in november 2020 a. when that her uncensored cheese party, the, and l d one with an enormous landslide. and it was a landslide that really would have given them the ability to rule and overcome the military, who still had retained a very large slice of power. despite the anal these overwhelming victory of the poles that i think many people assume is why the military coup happened. none the less, that the intention here is clear. we've seen charge after charge being brought against anson sushi, this one, we understand this. the judgement came with the option of hard labor on top. now,
11:09 am
according to mere most legal experts, that may just be a, something that is put on paper. it may not be something she actually has to serve. and when she was sentenced again, last week, a man mas senior general mental i said, she may be allowed to use. so to serve this term under house arrest rather than imprison itself. none the less, the intention here is very clear to remove her from politics, particularly with the possibility of elections coming up again in the autumn of next year. tony, thank you for that update. tony chang live in bangkok the head of the you ends, the atomic watchdog is wanting the physical integrity of your abs. largest nuclear power plant has been violated. raphael glossy and his team have finally been able to inspect these operations complex in ukraine cave and moscow had accused each other of attacking the plant and risking nuclear catastrophe. had

a several reports from ukraine. capitals. ah, renewed fighting around this up. what is your nuclear power plant in the city of in order that did not prevent the un nuclear watch docked him from crossing the front lines? ah, in spite of the dangers, the team led by the international atomic energy director ref i, lucy moved ahead to begin the much expected visit. go glossy, said he was able to inspect vital equipment. i worry i worded, i worry, and i will continue to be worried about the plant until we have a situation which is more stable, which is more predictable. it is obvious that that that plant and the physical integrity of the bond has been violated several times by chance. by deliberation. moscow says kiva sent a sabotage team to try to recover europe's largest nuclear power plant that's been
11:11 am
under russian control since march. first of all, wasn't remote up at 6 20 am to teams of ukrainians saboteurs. 60 men stroll. you 7 speed boats attempted to land banks of the kafka water reservoir. some 3 kilometers ne, to the supper is your nuclear power plant. he denies all accusations and says moscow is trying to manipulate the visit, carried out attacks around the city, to terrorize the population, and the ukrainian employees inside the plant. their well being is a major concern for ukrainian officials. keith says one of its reactors had to be shut down because of the shelling on thursday, and it warn't about the possibility of a meltdown if the plant goes offline completely. the visit is expected to last for a few days until the un team on the ground can evaluate the dangers on site. the situation around the nuclear power plant has had authorities here in keep on the edge as they're hoping russia will demilitarized the area. but russia has already
11:12 am
said it has no plans to remove its troops any time soon. that is how i'll defeat active. let's speak to a given n is under also in key for a game. how have ukrainian authorities reacted to the is visit to the operation? well of course they're watching it very closely present about the middle in ski, of course. and some of his top advisers met with the i. e. a top officials before they left to head south to visit the nuclear plant. and the situation there at the plant is not really changing week by week or day by day. it could potentially change our by our because this is such a volatile situation. number one. and because this is such an unprecedented operation, a and mission by the i e, a team as well. it's something that is really never been done before in terms of them going to a, a nuclear plant that is in one country, but controlled by
11:13 am
a military of another, of a different country in terms of what is being said here in the capital. keith, we did hear from you, cranium president vladimir zalinski, and he indicated at least, insinuated that he is a little bit disappointed with what he's heard from the i. e. a team so far after just their 1st day visiting the nuclear plant. now going into day 2, let's listen to a little bit of what the ukranian president had to say. green as a will of sin, la delicious demilitarization of the territory of the station is the goal, and it is bad that we have not yet heard the appropriate messages from the i. e. a, despite the fact that we talked about, it was mr. grossi during our meeting, and yet it was the key security point of our agreements. it was outlined clearly, demilitarization and full control by our nuclear workers clinical. and
11:14 am
what's interesting here is that what you're kind of hearing from zalinski there is he's sort of wanting the i ada, make certain statements that back up, cranium position on this. of course, russia as well. ah, wants the i ada make statements as well. that would back up the russian position on this. what's interesting is the i e, a is not equipped as an organization to implement any sort of security zone or around the plant. they're not equipped to make accusations on what sort of a, who is causing the destruction in or around the plant. they are simply there as experts to observe what has happened and to use their expertise to get a sense of the risk that could be posed to people that live around there and the workers inside. should there be some sort of a catastrophe there at the nuclear plant? but clearly this is a situation where 2 countries are in the middle of
11:15 am
a war. and in the center of this war right now, is this nuclear plant, and these i e, a teams that are there that are trying to assess the damage that's been done and the risks that are posed. lastly, we're told that the at least a few of the team members of the i. e. a could remain at the plant through saturday . but we're also hearing reports perhaps that they want to try to set up some sort of permanent present their presence there as well. at this point, we simply don't know. again, it's really our by our cause a situation is so volatile. gabrielle, thank you for that game. elizondo live in keith. still ahead on al jazeera president, joe biden attached donald trump and his supporters in the republican party saying they represent extremism that threatened united states and under locked down the chinese city of chang do imposes mucosy 19 restrictions, including mass testing to try and contain the latest outbreak
