9:02 am
a 3000000000 your e u investment package for better risk will remain on high. now, according to the commission precedent also on the lion that will continue to be the case until the country quotes turns democratic. now the european council is demanding the immediate release of the detain journalist, ram, and participate which his supporters fear for his safety. the $27.00 leader of the european union do not always find common grounds, but the outrage was mutual over bela ruth after the country intercepted a passenger jet flying between you states and detained, an exiled blogger, and activists on board. the judgement was unanimous. this is an attack on democracy. this is an attack on freedom of expression. and this is an attack on european serenity from the line did not mince words as she announced the response to the actions of bella, luce, lita, alexander lucas shanker. the european council decided that there will be additional
9:03 am
sanctions on individuals that are involved in the hijacking. but this time also on businesses and economic entities that financing this regime. the use of closing its air space to bella luce in airlines, and will deny them access to e u airports. some european airlines like live tom, the s a s or kayla announced they would avoid spell lucien airspace. this was triggered on sunday when exiled activist rum on property of which was arrested, traveling from greece to lithuania. the commercial flight he was on was grounded by a bela ruth in war plain because of an alleged bomb threat. no explosives were found on the aircraft, and you lead us are demanding answers to see if it's from a pet us yet, which must be released immediately. and all the explanations for the 1st landing of the run their flight are implausible. the same plots with partners, sophia pig,
9:04 am
we are demanding their release to the p g. a video appeared on the bella lucien, pro government telegram channel with the imprison, privacy of its dark marks visible on his forehead. the opposition says prep us. yeah. which was under pressure when he gave the statement that he was treated according to the law. and the past beller, roost, and government had already forced opposition leaders, atlanta, general gaia to appear in a similar video while she was in custody. we didn't know what's happening to them. he could be interrogated by, could you be he may be tortured now, as an enemy of caution. we are dealing with the harshest regime in europe indicates we will discuss migration from the line also announced that the you put on hold a 3000000000 euro economic package for bella. ruth, until the country quote, turns democratic at 10 o'clock early, i suppose brussels beer chief alexandra for nominate orchestra. if the sanctions on
9:05 am
bearers as severe as they could have been. no, there were more options on the table yesterday night, for example, friends abroad for what a proposal to suspend old traffic, including the ground transit from bill i rose to the european union. so that was also on the table. however, i think it's fair to say that some member states considered such a measure to extreme, and we have to keep in mind what is the nature of the european union foreign policy making to have a strong and also in united. so response, you have to have all the 27 members on board and they often agree on measures and old members can agree on. and i think in this case, it was very important for the leaders to present and you know, a united front on the threat that was brussels. we're chief, i'm now drilling by journalists 10, a little covert she is in ms. good morning to you hannah. so how is the news of the
9:06 am
e u sanctions being received and been bobo roo stance definitely wants the impugn. she had to stop and they expected a strong and consequent response. very tangible, practical steps from the you from western countries from the democratic world. so i would say that they did expect sanctions, the functions list be expanded, be broadened by, by, by the you, by the yes and other countries when it comes to individual and targeted smart economic sanctions, the sense that country want those sanctions be, will thought, be painful. for the regime, not for the people, and it's really important to targets oligarchs. it's really important to target local shanker finances and kind of the finances of his cronies abroad. so. so that's kind of the coma and i would say, i will opinion here when it comes to binding slides. horrible. are we send kind of forbidding both sense to, to,
9:07 am
to come to you at closing the board us. i would say that here we should be cautious because many people flee the country and they, they are looking for a refuge in you because, you know, in theory of prosecution involved with another important issue is that they want the agenda of the new free and for presidential elections come back on kind of the agenda and so that the talks about the new actions resumed hadn't been receiving floors. he's have released a video of ram and purchase a that, as mentioned in our report, it was likely filmed energy rates. and i'd like to follow that that is the reason why we're not going to be showing you that video, but had to tell us about that video war. i've known the roman for years and it was horrible to see him in such a condition. he looks horrified, he looks very distressed, his voice trembles. he has the marks over his face over his forehead. that might
9:08 am
mean that he might have been bitten then over sobbing. he says that he doesn't have any health problems. he has been treated well. and then he kind of confesses stuff he took part in flooding, riots in bella was to be just punishable up to 15 years in prison. so the kind of raises questions about whether you know what was happening to him, but he has been tortured whether he has been threatened. let's remember that he's on the k g b terrorist list. so it might also kind of scare him. what might happen to him and also his, his girlfriend, his trouble companion has been detained. so she's also not safe at the moment. and it might also cause a lot of distress on him. all right, that's the journalist tenant of the cova, talking to us from minsk. thank you. hello. and now let's take a look at the stories making headlines at this hour. the u. s. has court for
9:09 am
immediate release of money as president and prime minister after they were detained by soldiers. it is a part of an interim administration pointed to oversee a return to the then the enrollment following occurred last year. and i'll be arrest has raised fears on another military takeover and me and my state media have released the 1st off to be the chief in court with 2 other defendants. it's the 1st time she's been seen since the crew in february, her lawyer say the 75 year old remains in defiance and in good spirits. she's facing a series of charges including incitement. petition and more than 200 people have been injured in a trained collision in the malaysian capital one and one of the trains was empty and on a test run off to repair work. now the course of the accident is still unknown, but the regular rail service has risen. now the us pick which states anthony lincoln has arrived in tennessee at the start
9:10 am
of the middle east. he. the visit is designed to consolidate the seas fire between israel and hamas millison in the gaza strip thinking it's just a whole talk with the leaders of the palestinian authority, jordan and egypt for the bids to open the flow of humanitarian aid into the gods. but now the territory was devastated by israeli, and strikes launched and retribution for mass rocket attacks on israel. the cities and the people were killed into violence, mostly palestinians. and for more on this feller spring in our correspondence in jerusalem, tanya cramer. hello tanya. so what are the us the creature of states immediate aims with this visit to israel? one thing of the one hand is to secure the si, fi that was broken by egypt between israel and hum us and from the administration we understand they want to improve the situation. and also to start to start
9:11 am
basically rehabilitating and rebuilding gulf now in a gesture by israel they said last night that they are going to allow, again, you monitoring a into gaza through the carrier crossing. and also they will allow the passage of palestinian patients in need for life saving a treatment in israel or hospitals in east jerusalem and also allow the fisherman to go out once again to fish in the sea. but that is actually all going back to the situation which we've seen before. the conflict broke out somehow going back to this a status quo. and the question is now whether you know this securing the seas 5 and also mean securing a longer term truth and of course both sides have their demands is red ones, for example, to see the return of the bodies or remains of 2 israeli soldiers from the war in 2014 and to israelis that are held in gaza. and thomas wants to see an evening or
9:12 am
at least a lifting of the blockade that was imposed on garza, about 14 years ago. so it's too early to say whether we will seal this, whether there will be a wider pushed by the us administration. because everybody understands, you know, if the underlying conditions are not addressed, this diplomatic efforts still be rather limited. tiny, how central is the issue of iran's nuclear program to us israeli relations at the moment? i think they're very essential for the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu. israel is watching a bit from the sidelines that negotiations are taken place to go back to a nuclear dia with iran. and we heard some very unusual statements by the israeli prime minister just ahead of this visit by the us, secretary of lincoln. miss smith and yahoo! said, you know, in the one hand he was praising the support for is very that he also was hinting at
9:13 am
having to take that's a quote brave an independent decision decision when it comes to the wrong in a nuclear threat. and that's certainly what both leaders here will be. both men here will be talking about as well. right? that's tanya kramer and jerusalem. thank you, tanya. now as we heard, reconstruction in casa is high on the agenda, the palestinian territory of that heavy bombardment during 11 days of conflict. seen how much the medicines and the israeli army destruction has live. thousands of people whom this traumatized by the fighting. many don't know where to begin to rebuild their life. the mancy family lives in bate luckier in the northern gaza strip, near the israeli border. they want to show us something. this area was heavily targeted by the israeli military and its response to the volume of rockets fired at
9:14 am
israel from gaza. come at, muncie, and his wife common feared for their lives. they listened to their voices calling to god, expecting to die. how do we deserve this? asked harman. then she says to our daughters, come to me, we're all going to die. they were lucky yet the trauma remains. let us know. the israeli say we are terrorists, but we haven't done anything to anyone. we haven't fired any rockets. scenes of destruction also. and central garza city bombed out buildings and shattered lives. some people still camp out amid the ruins where their homes one stood. palestinian sources say some 2000 apartments were destroyed for israel. this was collateral damage caused by its attacks on the infrastructure of islamic thomas militants, which israel says use civilians as human shields. mohammed was sophia,
9:15 am
had his apartment here. now he doesn't know where to go. so far, no one is offered to help. i collected these things from wherever i could. now i sleep here. how much is calling the cease fire? a victory for them? which these motorists also insist. but most people are simply exhausted and one piece will harm mic. dodd is a dentist in gaza city where the building next to his was destroyed. he says, i must be with the cycle organism. if elections were to be held here, hamas would lose heavily. and then the bed and the dish failure due because the people have suffered so much it didn't happen today. he's brought his children to the park away from the destruction their volunteers try to take the kids minds off what happened in bait. luckier had monster worry about his youngest daughter
9:16 am
if someone hadn't noticed that she's suffering from some kind of shock. i'm and how she does strange things. how can my neighbors said i should bring her to a psychologist? can ne allergy. charla? he adds, is only wishes for her to have a good and normal life. today's talks between the us and israel will likely include the possibility of a new nuclear deal with iran. now iran is about to change. some of its top plays off to 2 terms in office president has been, ronnie has to step down and almost 600 candidates wants to succeed him in next month's election. now among them are some familiar faces. abraham racy is a hard line, carrick, who is currently in charge of the islamic republic stationery. 4 years ago. he lost the game through honey, but he has gained more support since and literary johnny is a former parliamentary speaker helped associate the nuclear deal. he is considered a moderate, conservative, now the incumbent vice president that the shot john jerry,
9:17 am
is one of the so called reformers hoping to win over voters. but before we radians get to choose who they think is the best candidate. the field will be narrowed down by the guardian council. that is a panel off islamic clerics and lawyers that routine the block voices calling for radical change. and for women, excuse me. now, well this time be any different. we may have a candidate hoping to make history. zach j e is used to being the only woman among men. the political scientist has been fighting for women's rights in the islamic republic for decades. now she thinks it's time to turn to front plant politics to become the country's 1st ever female president. message, we're going to have him with a handle on the board. i think the way i want to run the country by maternal management will change iran. that has already been tested in the world and it's
9:18 am
clearly different to other forms of management. it employs kindness and subtlety, delicacy, and affection. little bit of also in iran's progressive capital, t iran. many people are generally open to the idea, but so far the prospects of the upcoming election are giving rise to widespread euphoria. rather voter apathy seems to be reaching new level official. when you're hopeless about the whole system, it makes no difference whether it's a man or woman. i think gender is not important to you. and them and mission is to me, they are all the same because in my country, women are more misogynistic than men. that's why i think it doesn't matter. what is important that none of them do that you do well. even the state controlled media outlets say the majority of voters are planning to stay away from the ballot box. that's the problem for the islamic republic as a whole. but especially for reformers,
9:19 am
politicians. history shows the lower the water participation, the better the chances for hotline candidates. the actual j knows that, but isn't deterred by it. she believes she can make a difference. in brooklyn, m k mall of another. and we don't believe that by simply having a female president all the problems of the world and they slamming societies will be solved. but it's women's right to have this and there shouldn't be any obstacles in the way to this stage. i think because it's the 1st time that's such a thing that's happening in iran. i am setting a precedent that is a heavy burden. a big responsibility for us saying should she be elected georgia, you says her government's model will be peace and reconciliation. but to prove she has what it takes. she not only needs to win over the guardian council,
9:20 am
but also iran, skeptical voters. something she knows will be an uphill battle. and for more in this i am joined by the dw reporter who filed this report. teresa trooper, good, see it's a reason. so you've spent a lot of time in iran. what obviously she's chances of winning over the guardian council and then the radium public. well, not very high. the christine that for sure. i mean, she doesn't meet the official criteria for the job. she's between 40 and 75. for example. she has a nice the master's degree in no criminal record, but as we have heard, no woman has ever been allowed to stand. and in iranian presidential election law self says that it might be too early for iraq to have it. so as female president. so other candidates have way better than men. that is, for example, of abraham, right. he and the chief judiciary was very likely to be qualified on the larry
9:21 am
johnny also very likely, although that some room was even, he might be disqualified. and that's mainly the true people most people think will be the top candidates come election day. but on the other hand, if the guardian council wants to boost voter participation into a level that gives at least some credibility to whoever is elected in the end, they might consider approving a candidate that is at least a tiny bit different this time. right? you mentioned the guardian council. what exactly is the guardian council role in iranian elections? while the guardian council is the most influential body in iran, is, consists of 6 islamic clerics and lawyers. and they get to decide whether new laws or new candidates an election in line with the constitution and the countries atlantic laws. and in the past they have disqualified almost all candidates with reformist views, all women,
9:22 am
as we've heard. but also senior officials or even candidates, a previously approved for example, 4 years ago. even my job was qualified. somebody who had previously been president for 8 years. and what you also have to know about the guardian council is that it's not an elected body. its members are directly or indirectly appointed by the supreme leader. and that is why it's criticized both internationally and within iran as being an obstacle to democracy because it prevents candidates from running . and iranians do not have a free choice of who they think is best for their country. okay, and just quickly, it's theresa, how much power does the iranian president really have while definitely not less than presidential of other countries that were sure, because unlike the u. s. president, for example, he's not head of state that is harmony the supreme media and it will stay on the harmony. and he makes the big decisions about foreign policy, for example,
9:23 am
about the country nuclear program. although i've watched other political feel like iran regional activities or it's missile program, so it's not like who ever gets electives that can make radical changes or turn everything around. that's not possible because companies influence will stay. but of course, the president can set a different tone. we saw that when martina john went out of office, and homie came and said he changed the tone. and that alone can increase the chances of other countries being willing to engage in dialogue with iran or not. all right, that's teresa trumpet. thank you teresa. it's been a yes since the african american george roy was murdered by a wise police officer in the us that he off minneapolis now. the killing captured on video that shot the world sparks global anti racism, process and cord for political action. civil rights leaders have been pressing for
9:24 am
sleeping police reform, but they say not nearly enough has been done on the side of a murder. not even adults can comprehend. george floyd died on this spot in front of a minneapolis grocery store one year ago. the video footage of his death is impossible to forget its spark furious protests around the world, bringing you one year on every in she reminds of that day in may, 2020. the community is still really, i feel like this is the stepping stone because the police involve, was arrested but it's still happening. so like this is the magic racism is still here. we're still dealing with it. the police need less freedom. you know, that's basically what we're saying. they need less freedom and then they need to be accountable, held accountable for what they do in downtown minneapolis,
9:25 am
supporters of the floyd family and other activists are showing their anger. hardly any one here is satisfied with the progress made in the past 12 months. one year after the death of george floyd, people marching police reform here in minneapolis from a lot of cities across the united states. they st. george hard murder may come back, but at least 100 african american killed the police student last year. so sure i get away lost her fiance during a police operation. she says the state of minnesota is up the forefront of police brutality against black people today. because this is the day that revealed us about everything that they didn't do. it was people here in minnesota, 1 may see at a rally in front of the minneapolis courthouse where george lloyd's murderer was

convicted. family members and civil rights activists are commemorating the life of the man who through his death became an icon. it has been a pe. he has been very frustrating for me. mom for your life can change with a link. and i floyd family attorney ban crump says there are now looking to congress, setting their hopes on a sweeping police reform bill named for floyd. we know that it's a tipping point, and it has to be a meaningful legislation. because if not, join us law and name can't be own. ah, that the site we're, george floyd was killed an open air gospel serve as reminds war shippers that the
