unit of measures against the regime and men's top of the list, bending in airlines from european skies. the us also slept and sanctions on those responsible for for the services. abduction. western powers have widely content. the incident, including nato, the forced landing over passenger flight by the nurse was dangerous and unacceptable. this is a state jacking and demonstrates how the receiving means attacks basic democratic rights. on sunday, i'm on the edge was traveling from greece to lithuania on or by an airplane. the commercial flight was on was reevaluated, on its way to vilnius and then escorted to men's by a bell roof in war plain, allegedly because of a bomb threat. but no explosives were found on the aircraft as a co founder and former editor of the nest of channel and telegram privacy, which used his influential voice to royal alexander lucas,

shang po's regime. he now faces after 15 years in prison. let's take a closer look at this for the final confess ciocca. he's an advisor to better assist opposition. lead us atlanta. you can sky welcome to d w. what do you make of this video? so i think he spent 24 hours and location because custody in the hands of k j b. and he this confess, in the video of this, this is the result of the pressure of the psychological potential of physical pressure. we know that k j b, i saw this video ready in august and september when thousands of dollars hands go detained after mass marches. and i must assure you that some cage of beacon can force you to tell whatever they want. right? so as far as you're concerned, this is worthless because this is a forced confession. exactly, exactly. and the good thing about this of his a life we her, we heard and we show that he's a life hippa, he's not very healthy,

and definitely he's, live is still under threats. i think her mom for the say, which is doing the right thing when he is speaking, what they wanted him to say. otherwise he can be physically intimidated. always when we speak about hostages, safety hostage must follow, bought the craven all is doing. our goal is to release him as soon as possible and to make sure that those who, who, who, who captured the hostage will be high price. how much do you think the use sanctions will help to get him free? what we saw it was the wake up call for coal for international community for the european union, the united states lucas shank or was using the lack of reaction from the west for many years. it created the feeling of impunity. he was arrested opponents. he was broken down on media, he was detained in journalist and the right. now after the blame situation happened

in sunday, we saw very quick reaction of brussels, of berlin, of fortune and of london. this is a very good sign, but only close in the early spence is not enough. it's very important to isolate the question, customers him upon the politically and diplomatically. it's very important that all perpetrators, judges, prosecutors, all the organ that the special operation they will be punished. and it's very important to discuss economic sanctions, but also international investigation and tribunal rights. so those would be your priorities and you would call on the you to do that now or do you want, would you like to see them wait and see if it has actually has any effect we call on the you to act now to act quickly. direct bravely, it's enough is enough for the question because shows that he neglects all the rules, all the regulations. it's very good that you're reacted right now,

but in order to stop the regime, the strong action joint effort needed between all major stakeholders. because now it's not the domestic political issue, delivers only, this is a threat to entire europe, and this is why action isolation of the regime is important to de. thank you so much for making time. first, fellers in the opposition advisor from fed ciocca left last night to you leaders meeting in brussels, german chancellor, hanging to america dismissed. bella. this is explanation of the incident and had this message for the leadership in minsk, mom for to see if it's for him and prep us here, which must be released immediately. and all the explanations for the forced landing of the run of flight or implausible the same plot to his partner, sophia pig, we are demanding their release to the p g. r or german reaction that from andras nick, who was a member of the german parliament. well, we'll take

a look now at some of the other stores making headlines. that is our us president joe biden will hold the summit with russian president vladimir putin on fixing 5th june in geneva. the face to face meeting between the 2 leaders comes and made escalating tensions between the us and russia. and the 1st months of the bible administration, it'll be the 1st meeting as head of state african nation of molly appears to be facing its 2nd military coup inside the year, the vice president, a member of the ministry scene here, and archive footage has taken control of the country he's arrested the president and prime minister, something to hold elections next year, shed the rest of the legitimate leaders. as prompted an international outcry. tens of thousands of people are evacuating low line areas of eastern india to escape a cycling bearing down the coast to expect to make landfall on wednesday in the states of west and goal. in addition, last week,

another major storm killed at least 155 people on the west coast activists and george floyds that family members have gathered in minnesota. it's about a year since he's mode about white police officer. mr. floyd's dad highlighted police brutality and racism in the us as an fibers urged congress to pass for these reform bill. but no make is. it's still wrangling over details. that's the middle east where you are a secretary of state and to be blank and a seeking to consolidate the seas. 5 between israel and hamas. medicines is currently in the west bank stadium. president mad about they do to give a press conference shortly. earlier i secretary blinking, i met with israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu, where he of israel right to defend itself. how much rockets he but he said, now was the time to build on. last week's sci fi losses on both sides were profound. casualties are often reduced to numbers,

but behind every number is an individual human being a daughter, a son, a father, a mother, a grandparents, a best friend, and as the tama teaches to lose a life is to lose the whole world. whether that life is college in or israeli has got more or less from my tenure, kramer in jerusalem. welcome atanya. so anthony blanket is with palestinian leaders as we speak. how does he convince them to trust him and the us when they are so firmly, backing israel? well, i think you have to look at it from at least 2 different levels. on the one hand, you have the policy. so routine meeting with the policy president. nothing was a bus in grandma. and of course for the palestinian authority for the leadership, it's very important to have such a high level meeting with the american administration. they haven't had one for several years now because the relationship with the trump administration was

extremely trained. also, the former us president donald trump has moved the u. s. embassy from television to, to loosen him. the senior leadership in ramallah has cut off diplomatic ties for them. so for them, it's very important to restart this dialogue with the american administration. we expected them to talk a lot about reconstruction, of course, in gaza. they might like to see it go bit further than that, but it's also, of course, meant from the u. s. i just strengthen their position in ramallah visa be in garza, but she asked ordinary palestinians, they would say the u. s. is not an honest broker. they would say they send out poor looking out for the interests of as well. and that they're only managing the conflict, but not looking actually for solutions. and i'm going to bring the course not meeting how mass and the u. s. d b a. you have designated as

a terrorist organization. he says he wants to help garza without helping hammers. so how does he do that? well, this has been a constant dilemma for the international community with james, massa, terrorist organization. there is a non contact policy, so they will have to come up with solutions for this. they did so in 2014 after the war, then with when it comes to rebuilding, they created the special reconstruction mechanism that for seen by the united nation, by the single story and international access. and of course, as israel, who controls which controls everything that goes in and out of the ship. but of course, politically, it raises some questions because how much is the ruling force in gaza? so they have to deal with them in some way or another which they do, of course, at the moment through indirect talks through, for example,

the egyptian mediators. and that is necessary to hold also accountable for what they are doing in gaza and to move anything that's going on there. and so is it now realistic to expect any steps towards the resumption of israeli palestinian peace talks? well, the impression here is that at the moment, the focus of this visit is by the us secretary of state until you think, and it's more to keep the situation come to, you know, to, to get the sci fi going maybe into something more than just the sci fi, but we are not sure yet, you know, whether all the conditions of being met, whether they would be a longer true. so at the moment i think this is more the focus, of course, everybody knows without addressing the underlying causes of this conflict. and we've seen this in the past weeks leading up to this conflicts. it's no real a comp on a real political solution and side. thank you, tonya. tonya kramer,

a series of germany has poles in september for national elections the 1st in 16 years. it will not feature the current chancellor angler medical the far right f day has now decided who will lead it into the election and the results represents the victory for its radical wake. these are the leading candidates for the least vital and tino called parlor. an online poll of members of the far right alternative for germany party gave over 2 thirds of the vote to what many consider a hotline to revoke the permit islands if they pets and shaving 71 percent of the clear thickness on our pony members. members like all facts, otherwise we wouldn't have gotten so many bonus. nice vidal anita, of the parties parliamentary group has been a prominent figure for youth. she's close to the so called wing and extreme,

it's group within the a, f d. now, formerly to spend it, idol is known for her heart hitting statements, reducing migrants to quote, goods and head scarves and knife wielding men on government benefits. d, nicole, panda re presents the a f d groups in germany, eastern states where the party is strong. you became co chair in 2019 since then quotes of the a f b has been placed under watched by intelligence services, including its use, the vision. now cappella wants to make his party more successful than the social democrats, the oldest german party. we feel that i would like to see the get more votes than the s p d. that would be great. i would like very much in the summer actually pulling it around 10 percent ahead of the election. the a if these very unlikely to form part of germany next, coalition government so far, every other party in germany, parliament has ruled out collaborating with them. let's take

a look at this with the w chief political and he said to hannah. now welcome mckayla. so how far to the right will these candidates that take the f d in september? yeah, that will be the big question and then lot will hinge on those election scenes. one thing is for sure, at least vital and you know, whole parlor actually mark an entry point for the more extreme right. of factions within the party, around beyond hucker in so ring yeah. the state of the ring. yeah. where the tea party is being looked at very closely by german intelligence services over the concern. and i quote that it may undermine the democratic order here in germany. so i have the tons to talk to at least earlier. and i asked her the very question, how much further to the right, the 50 would shift is in to the i and we stand for the constitution and law and

order, which is why the question doesn't post itself on the state. is it, it is true that we are part of a conservative liberal spectrum, but that doesn't raise the question of any shift to the right. and frankly, i'm beginning to find that question increasingly prevalent. no. it's an unwelcome question. it's not very well received within a if the courses, but the big question mark, how much closer authority is we'll look at the sd is hanging over it continuously. last, they would also like to take germany out of the european union. is there any chance about actually happening? the sort answer is no. first of all, they may be the largest opposition party, but they don't really stand much of a chance to form a government. they would have to become the strongest party to have any chance of being any part in government. and also even nice, vidal that top candidates doesn't and it was quite clear doesn't really agree with the very aim of taking germany out of the you at the same time,

she's very critical. and i did ask over the use response on bella. ruth, those sanctions that are clearly unwelcome within the let's take listen when you would go out and you would have been well advised to let us go 1st and wait, which signals come from the us instead of firing away and being obedient in advance and such as being a neutral mediator and careful with sanctions as an instrument for this dish mit them instrument there's, i'm to on please, is the rule out any involvement by russia. it's kind of, i really can judge on that one can't rule anything out on the way i states been fighting over how far, right it wants to be ever since it was found. it has that been settled? well, the top kind is argue, yes. but when you look at the raw, the tight lipped response by your more, more to who is a more moderate co party leader within the party who didn't speak of unifying the

party, he didn't really extend a very hot felt congratulations to the to. and i dare say that that fight is not over, although the party will try very hard to at least put this on hold until those elections on september 26th. where after all, it wants to be at least the social democrats, the big tent party. that once stood up against nazi germany. so a very traditional party in that could if they succeed, mock another historical wing after that when also that 1st entry into the bonus talk in those past elections. so either way, they're on track to making history one way or the other. thank you for that mechanic w's chief political editor. well, take a look at some sports, starting with football and outgoing by munich, coach han, c. flick, assigned a 3 year contract to coach the german national football team. flick,

who's the by and team lifted be bundling a trophy on saturday. we'll take over from yogi love, who's leaving after some european championships. the rivers have been flying ever since honey flick confirmed in april that he wanted to leave by an munich at the end of the season. know that the f b. germany's football federation has confirmed that slick will take over from the coach. he assisted as germany won the world cup in 2014. after the summers postponed european championship. you will be love is to step down up to 15 years in charge. and the flick era can begin flick left by an under a close relationship with sporting director past on seller how much that apparently beyond repair. but the f b director oliver be off says his old colleague is a man who brings people together. the slick certainly did that did by and the recent bend is like a triumph expanded, an incredible trophy hole in minnie 7,

including last year's champions league and all in little over 18 months and charge that record should give him the close to command respect in the german dressing room. philip superstars who and players like thomas miller on monday with noah. there will be a few familiar faces to put in a good word for the new man. united states as a warning against travel to japan, where the number of corona virus cases remains high. the japanese government says the travel advisory will not effect the olympics, which are due to beginning tokyo, in less than 2 months. the international olympic committee says the event will go ahead despite no approval ratings and countries low fascination rates. so in order to boost its inoculation campaign, japan just opened a mass vaccination centers. i mean to immunize 36000000 elderly citizens before the game, start. the offices of the for much in tokyo. now, one of japan's fast mass vaccination centers. everyone over the age of 60 families

is eligible for a chart. now. i'm feeling very believed and grateful. for a long time, a year and a half, i was feeling anxious, intense if you didn't know who might get the syllabus, i don't care if i get it or not, but i didn't want to pass it onto my parents or my children, but you can just past all know when i think the staff are still getting used to it a bit, but they still got things done pretty quickly. i made my reservation at 8 am and by 826, it was over, including no waiting time. japan's vaccination drive got off to a slow start. vaccinations only began in mid february months behind many other countries. far less than 5 percent of the population have had a job with the olympic games being held here in tokyo in just 2 months time. the new vaccination centers i meant to speed up the vaccine rollout, but many feel it's too little too late. when working with we had done it earlier

and got 8090 percent of people vaccinated by the time of the olympics. and then for sure the games could be held without a problem. they had to be, but most here worried about the games post show that up to 80 percent of japanese. people don't want the olympics to go ahead and with good reason. tokyo and 9 other areas remain under a state of emergency. infection rates are on the rise and in cities like soccer hospitals are running out of beds and ventilators, as japan battles of 4th wave of the pandemic have similar developments, and the corona virus pandemic will start in taiwan, which has extended a nationwide warning level. currently at level 3, i mean an ongoing spike in infections. the country has been battling and increase and infections after months of relative safety, the government says millions of vaccine doses will arrive in the country by the end

of june. study and city of melbourne has reintroduced covey restrictions and made face that a new cluster could grow into a major outbreak. indoor mosque where it's being introduced and travel bubble with new zealand has been put on hold. i mean, while india has reported its lowest, the increase in daily cases since early april daily deaths are also down slightly, the country has been battling a severe 2nd wave of the virus since april joe. and come with us barissi, dorman, they're expecting a loss of around $75000000.00 euros this financial a year due to kind of 19. however, the negative effects of the pandemic could be kept within limits because of the use of the cup victory. and they renewed qualifications for the champions league in the last financial year. don't have a loss of 4349000000 alleviate. the problem had been club along with other teams and hopes to have it be some of the spectators back at the start of the season. in
