he was considered really a king maker in politics and actually, just as we speak now, i mean the, his body for say that is the right coalition is still in power under the premier ship of georgia malone. and so he is. so it's certainly someone who has had a huge impact on the tag in politics, in recent memory. he was a long, long disturbing prime minister. but he also had an impact on a padges. i would say on a daily basis because he also transformed the television life with his big group called medias said so. certainly a man who has a i, or many people in italy say most impacted rightly or wrongly a canyon way of life. any time in politics over the past 3 decades. yeah. and those are saying that not only a politician, but also a media mogul as well, talk to us about the impact we had on the media landscape

a little bit more and also perhaps the economic impacts. he had on the country. well, i would say that, i mean, up until he came up with his group of may just said, which includes the 3 major channels that widely followed by everyone in the city, the landscape. the media landscape in italy was really in the hands of the right, which is the government media back oil change when people, bailey scone, came commercial. it led to the rise of commercial t. v. he also owned several print publications, has chosen what he did was a big earthquake, i would say in the media landscape. and as you mentioned before, he was also the owner of the ac milan at some point he had a huge business going on in temple a site in several the fields i would say, but it's really the media one that kept him afloat and also really led also to this

extravagant life that he had the big parties that were scandalous, that had huge repercussions on his political career. okay, thank you so much for the need for that update from elite on the desk of silvio berlusconi. we have a report now by nadine baba was more on brother's going silvio. berlusconi was never happier than when performing in front of his supporters at home or on the global stage. his playful touch was loved by some, but knows by others. he was prime minister 4 times and was it to these longest serving places will lead to to this one time cruise, ship crew not to the property tycoon, went on to wait till these biggest media empire and the chapman if his beloved football team. ac milan, he wheeled a tremendous into with an estimated 14 of $1000000000.00. that let's go any persuaded many a tell you he was the right man to lead to the control the c following to you to

write sometimes seem to read it shinall in the initial brutal i am the most legally persecuted man of old times in the whole history of mankind worldwide, because i have been subjected to more than 2500 court hearings. his chum would sometimes even when he kept impulse in friends white. but his attempts at cima opened back saw it. he said, lucy, don't have to bring you some greeting. greetings from a man. what's his name? he said i wouldn't just a minute. it was someone with a spark obama. and that was the personal vanity, the face lifts the permanent ton. all the better for sending utilities image abroad or so he claims that a scone rolled with the political punches as well as the true was assaulted during your campaign. randi and malone is the, let's any of legal battles against it became more your, it, italian patients will spin. he was convicted of types fluid in 2015, a late to

a political corruption. the narrowly avoided jail, but the convictions bought him from offerings until 2019. and then that was the sections of organizing. 6 parties, attended by under age prostitutes, his political and personal dramas. in spite of the blockbuster movie, it was because an economy that would eventually seal his political sites into these burden of debt, took it to the brink of bankruptcy, and fairly scone into a confrontation with european partners. in recent years he faded from frontline politics, dogs by health concerns. he re cost himself as in nature loving the family man. but he time is senator in 2022 and his leader a 4th say tell you the political policy. he found it. he was never too far from the reins of power. let's uh, speak to alan friedman who is an italian political commentator, and he wrote the biography my way burleigh scone, in his own words. you're joining us from lagrano. thank you so much for your time

with us on al jazeera. so what's your reaction to this news that brother sony has died? well, his health was deteriorating in recent years. uh, but of course uh, this is a very, very historic figure in postwar italian histories or sophia bernasconi was a comfortable virtual figure. he was at 4 time prime minister. he was tried on various corruption and bribery scandals and tax fraud scandals of more than 70 times. he was in many ways the original populist uh, initially back in the ninety's. and although he was comfortable originally he was also much loved by his followers. yeah. he's also been described as really transforming the political landscape in italy. how do you think he's going to be? remember? i think for this guy, he will be remembered as a 1000000000 there. uh,

media mobile uh, who built a big commercial television system and initially in the eighty's and then in the early 1990. and he'll be remembered as the man who, when scandals caused the collapse of the italian post for political party system furnace company for the party called ford c to yeah, he launched it with madison avenue. advertising is a tactics using his own company to get elected as on television. and it will be considered a us as controversial figure, who never really accomplished anything substantial on the economic policy front of your and doing great reforms for it late and seemed mostly interested in protecting himself from legal problems. so he'll be considered a, a brilliant, but small figure in history. you know, it's interesting. you talk about the controversies, obviously there were many as you were saying, but at the same time you say that he,

he was loved. how do you explain that as well and burdened scone uh to his credit was what the italian was like to call. it seemed practical. he had the charm. he had careers map and he loves to tell a anecdotes and stories as his biography, as of biography for i had to listen to the same story many times over when i was a virtual living with him in $21415.00 writing the biography. and making a documentary, it was also very egotistical man in the documentary my way, which was based on the book which ran for 5 years on netflix. and which i now have the rights to in that documentary. berlusconi takes me on a tour of this house, his mansion is pictures of himself is super mad, his swimming pool, and his family church is football fields. he was

a very grandiose billionaire and figure as well. so on the one hand, he had a charm. on the other hand, he was accused of breaking the law and ultimately was convicted for criminal tax fraud and had to serve a year of a community service. okay, uh thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with us. uh, alan friedman, we appreciate your time. and friedman speaking to us from lagrano and just uh to for you right up to speed with what we know so far, is that the former italian prime minister, silver bullet scone, has died at the age of 86. he had serv multiple turns as leader, and what we know is that he was admitted to hospital in milan on friday for what aids were describing as pre plan tests related to his leukemia. but we now know that he has died. that happened a little earlier on today. the the

in other news, ukraine's top middle, it's reaching out and says that there is heavy fighting on several front lines. keith says more than 2 dozen bottles of taking place in the past 24 hours around the eastern time. the bucket loads on further south ukraine said rush, i carried out more than 30 air strikes and several doesn't miss all strikes in the regions. that's also ukraine, said it re took another village in the west of the don't ask region. the village of storage of it is in the same cluster as 3 other villages. chief says it re took on sunday. moscow has not commented on those, but says that it repelled a tax elsewhere in the east will get reaction from russia in a moment to the shop of alova and moscow. but 1st, let's go to jonah hope joining us on the ukrainian capital case and tell us what more we're learning about the fighting near the front lines thrown off of the lots of reports over the last 24 hours with ukraine's

ministry high. come on confirming that it's made modest gains at a number of points along the front line in the east and the south. we're not given a great deal in the way of detail about quite how those games are being achieved, or indeed what losses may have been suffered in the process, but they talk of some 25 separate battles taking place in the southern donuts region and on the boat, it was awful easy at region, also fighting around the block moved a little bit further north and don't. that's region either in attempts to retake that should be captured by the russians last month. or perhaps an effort to try and draw a russian forces a way to try and defend the social media telegram to it, to full stories and fixtures, put out by the military showing soldiers in a number of advantages, raising the ukrainian flag visa, very small settlements with names like lego dot net, net connection in my career and most recently in the last hour. so storage of the

places that would not be much good about. it's a tool until now, but now represent very small advances in the early stages of these contra offensive . for you credit mistake, continue at tobacco, russian forces the high come on. as i say to you having clearly is now an area of some 100 square kilometers across the length of the front line of 20 kilometers long. the ukrainians essentially portraying the image of rushes forward defense these the having simply melted away with katie con, confirm what has happened on the russian side. okay, thank you joe. now for that update from keith less, i'm bringing journal as you'll, yep. separable over to find out what's being said at the kremlin and whether moscow was commenting at all on these report of gains being made by you crate a. so basically one to stands, the funny thing is raging on, but not much official information at the moment,

probably because we're celebrating a huge national holiday today. it's cold, russia and hundreds of festive events taking place all over the country right now. so probably bill source, he's do not want to overshadow this day with the news from the bottle field. a. by the way, the russian defense ministry actually did report about a nice a full russian military man who returned home from the ukrainian cub sivitz. a ton of grump channels called the bund, another exchange of prisoners of war. and a took place in the buddha area between the belgrade and c, may regions is a report that will be released soldiers will be taken to medical facilities for treatment and rehabilitation. also, according to military blow, because he of the military as filled a runway and equipment where hits in marigold basically that i'm talking about state of field right now. it's so happens in the poll tab of region, a few that was destroyed that and also russian defense system will show that they,

they show down at 2 as $200.00 missiles and crime me. and also in the top on the reconnaissance trip prose. sylvia of the russian block, c fleet was re quoted $300.00 calories is south of south of us. the total of also the information we have here is that the russian troops actually a repost that tackled the you bringing all the over away from solely dr. best mood, it was also reported that the russians prevented and attend, bought a ukrainian group that. so basically as you can see, that's the range of the pricing of attack since contra tax is quite wide. thank you so much. we also provide a logo for that update from moscow as well. there been explosions as to don city of undermine near cartoon as the fighting escalates between the army and the parent military rapids support forces. it follows a brief period of relative calm, brought on by a 24 hour ceasefire, but at least 18 people have now been killed in the capital region since the troops

ended on sunday. meanwhile, a doctor's association. so don's western dar 4 states has 1000 civilians have been killed since mid april. still a head on alger 0, preaching for the earth's crust, we explain why it's probably not sticking. one of the deepest poles in the world, the, the right just disappeared on top of your screen is these sites that i figured, but this area is still a wet one from the northern philippines. the trust was in the china, particularly on the coast of me in the south of that rather a dry your picture, still some big shelves around in place humanise you may be possible in here and certainly popular in west papua that scenario of big down pulses of flash struck potential, nothing much in tropical australia is i,

the fronts are coming in across the by to know reactions lot. it'd be in the east side of south australia, more especially victoria and something new. south wales, with temperatures in the teens, brain likely all the couple of dismal days. i suspect the winds, not that strong. you and i just need to go how for your back into the sunshine and once again, the big picture for wednesday is a fine, but it's been around the show base, the cans for us up to about 19 not particularly when the rest of the strategy will be active with the seas disappeared for the time being is that it's being talked virtually through the task eastern task that i'm missing using you know, sitting pretty really there wouldn't, might be a southern label to stuff particularly cold when your nurses tempted about where they should be asked for rain, but it's good, but again, you're going to what they are to choose do when they know especially what, but some nice to some of these dominant of the,

of the the top stories on how to 0 this out. so whoever, let's go need the former prime minister of italy has died at the age of 86. he had served 4 terms as leader. he was admitted to

a hospital in milan on friday for what 8 said were pre fond cost related to his leukemia. and ukraine, more than 2 dozen bottles are taking place on the front line, keeps an electric man, so as it's retaken for villages in the west region, there are reports of explosions and mr. denise city from durham on us finding escalates between the army and rapid support forces. it follows a brief period of from this have tom brought on by 24 hours ceasefire. iraq's government has approved a $153000000000.00 budget with record money set aside for state worker wages and development projects. 5 jobs wants to improve services and rebuilds neglected and war damaged facilities. to do that is planning to create hundreds of thousands of new jobs, but the plan relies on oil prices reaching at least $70.00 a barrel. that's a country's main source of income. and critics say too much money will be spent on government salaries on this. we have before the method standing by for us in

baghdad. so this is the largest budget, any rocks history. but why is it taking so long as indeed that reading $153000000000.00 is a quite a big number. but as you know, it's color is not only this year, but the coming to use as well, but it has taken to long because of the political wrangling between lawmakers inside the parliament speaking it, those many agent to the similar sentiments, codes this page. as you know about 19 provinces represented in the parliament, there lawmakers have been engaging in dispute if you like, inside the apartments over the past several months now the to come to or to reach a consensus and we've gone through the and they have you gone through this the budget to a low, so $150000000000.00. and as you know that it also and changed deficits of about

$50000000000.00. the government says that it will compensate. that's what we're making it up uh, from the money uh, loans. uh the loans are from debt funding. and lo collect local and for an in laws to make up for the $50000000000.00 visit in that a budget. but it still has, you know, that different it's miseries inside the parliament, different communities, different 6 have delay yields the approval of this at the budget law. so most mood, uh, what are some of the, the concerns though, because we understand that not everybody is happy about this budget. it will weigh many people, especially about that in central and southern. they walk over happy, they celebrate that final approval of that budget. they, they rely on the budget to create more jobs with them, quit development projects,

maintain the infrastructure and services that have been destroyed the ruined by years of neglect and war. but on the other hand, you have the critics of opponents of that to budget law namely, and the somebody attend them is just regent. and those are in a rock, especially those affiliated low makers and people up you needed to the cause to stand there. because the policy, they look at this low as a violation of the rights because as they say, it violates the rights of faith on the 2005 the constitution which give the code this region as they say, the right to market exports and excavate for oil and especially in, in terms of energy sector. and then also by virtue of that budget below that was just approved today. the simulated miscoded reason lose control of that energy sector and, and return the best that the government,

especially the so the state or the firm takes over and now it has full control over the energy sector. and this will be attending the sco just region, namely, or those pertaining to excavation marketing and exporting rights over there are you and this will be attending this code this week. okay, thank you so much for the heads reporting from but dont this is really for us as a rated several areas and occupied westbank including those on his own and the deficient refugee camps. one palestinian was injured near janine 13 others were arrested is really forces have been carrying out daily raids with this year being the most violent in decades. western india and southern toughest on our bracing for some extreme weather meteorologist, our warning cycle. and people on the par, joy is gaining strength and it's due to make landfall on thursday. 1000000 people are in the past of that store. several villages in the philippines or an evacuation
