1:21 am
because because only only then there will be a chance for freedom to pass through our border further to the east than doubt emblematic editor james bayes is at the conference in munich. this address exactly one year on was very important, pretty similar language as we've seen. progressive skin is recent speeches, for example, when he spoke recently in london, in paris and brussels messages to the international community to do more making the point that what is lacking here is speed. he keeps asking for things. it started with non lethal assistance that the west was giving it moved to heavy weapons then to artillery and now tanks. and now he's calling to fight a jazz with everything he asked for that there's been a long period of delay discussion. and eventually the west gives him what he wants, but he would like to see the delivery of weapons speeded up. much,
1:22 am
much more. ukraine will stay the top issue, i think, during this years munich security conference. but it's not just what discussed here in terms of a sort of talk is also active diplomacy that sometimes takes place. on these occasions, the us delegation represented by vice president, commonly harris bought the u. s. secretary, entity blinking it's going to be here to as is the top 4 policy official of china, y m e, the state counsellor. when ye give it all attention over taiwan and more recently, over the chinese balloon shot down over north american space. there is the possibility of discussions between those 2, which of course is something to watch very closely. we go to news from the united states now and fife, on the memphis police officers of pleaded not guilty of being charged with the murder of tyra nichols the officer's face. several charges including 2nd degree murder, aggravated assault. kidnapping, official,
1:23 am
misconduct and oppression shall be chancy. reports this was the 1st and court for the $54.00 officers, lawyers, and the 1st time since tyree nichols death that his family was able to come face to face with the men seed on camera, leaving him for several minutes following a traffic st. the defendant's lawyers entered the please to the charges against the plea of not guilty. those charges include 2nd degree murder, which carries a sentence, a 15 to 60 years. the court was adjourned until may, the 1st calling the arraignment. defense lawyers indicated that strategy to the assembled media. one suggested he would be expressing the fear that his black clerk may not receive a fair trial due to what he suggested was the systemic racism of the us legal system. it's not forget that my client is a black man in a court room in america. this is a country where black people are incarcerated at 5 times, the rate of white people, a country where black people are $7.00 times more likely to be wrongfully convicted
1:24 am
of murder than white people, never done. net in other defense law. i suggested that police officers had to face great danger in their profession and questioned the charge of 2nd degree murder. by note the calls death, there's no definitive verbal information regarding paul to death at all. and so we get 5 individuals charged with murder. i repeat why and it's an honor. because at this point in time, i've never seen people jump to conclusions outside the court. tyree nichols family spoke of a determination to see the price as through and be present every day of the trial. and i want each and every one adults for lease up pursuits to be able to let me in the faith they, they haven't done that yet. they couldn't even do that today. they didn't even have the courage to look at me in my face at their what they did to my son. so they're going to see me at every court day,
