questioning, now the remarkable thing is that there had been no information about this case earlier. if i had been asked to come for questioning, i would have come. that's why this is all a very big surprise. social people verify the rest. st. petersburg airport comes days after his open russia foundation, felt that it's active as ease to avoid persecution under russia's repressive laws and opposition groups. but the police did not stop there. on tuesday, they rated the offices of opposition. politician dmitri good cause, who is planning to run an upcoming parliamentary elections. now go into the next department. i've never felt so important before. there are 60 people working on our case today. we're not allowed to speak to everyone. thank you. good call was then will. so arrested on some of his associates taken in for questioning . the question is, seems as if this is a personal case against opposition figures to pressure them,

push the massive politics and prevent them from running in the election. which such scenes repeating themselves all over russia? the opposition is bracing for a tough time before pose open in september. for more were joined by the w correspondent, emily show when in moscow. emily, welcome. what's the latest you're hearing about these arrests? well we've just heard that and the provider will be placed in a pre trial detention for the next 2 months. he'll be in custody while awaiting trial, while the investigation against him takes place initially, he was a suspect in this case. now he's no actually he's a witness now he's a suspect and he stands accused of working with an undesirable organization. meanwhile, good costs trial could apparently also take place today. he's being accused of not paying rent on the space and office space that he rented from the moscow mayor's

office and be bought of could face up to 6 years in prison. and a good call could face up to 5 years in prison. emily, let's focus on the rest of the country. people thought off from the open russia foundation, given that he was taken off a plan about to leave the country. how unusual is this style of arrest? i would say it's very unusual. usually opposition figures can freely leave the country. in fact, there even been cases where opposition figures report that they were kind of encouraged by the authorities to leave the country essentially so that they are out of the kremlin hair. in this case, we saw a rather different strategy, i guess, from the authorities or from the police, where we saw this rather theatrical arrest. just ahead of take off, you know, in the st. petersburg, airport. people, water was taken out of the plane and arrested. and i think the parallels to

neighboring bella roost, you can't really ignore those. and i think most people, because there was, of course, this recent arrest of our i'm on to see which an opposition journalist, whose plane was actually forced to land in the capital of the region capital minced . and he was then arrested, taken off the plane as well. and i think those parallels are very clear to, you know, most russians who will be following what's happening in the country. they watched protests in neighboring bella, bruce, closely, many people. and they also saw the crackdown that happened there after the protest . i think this could be the russian authorities sending a clear signal that they aren't going to shy away from taking a much, much harsher stance on, on the opposition here in russia ahead of the elections and really upping their crackdown russians. and this is now have moved as well, just adopted a so called extreme, this bill that would buy critics entirely from the polls. is this the ultimate step

in to silence opposition? well the that law critics say is directed at no vine these organisations because 3 of his organizations, the opposition politicians alex in are by me. that is 3 of his organizations face trial. on the 9th of june they could be declared extremist. and this new law could mean that anyone in any way connected with these organizations would be barred from running. but as we see, the crackdown that we're seeing at the moment extends beyond the vine. me, it's extended to most opposition. politicians. there's hardly any prominent opposition. figures at the moment who haven't been facing either or the arrests that we've been seeing with those 2 politicians who were just talking about or administrative fines. the same applies to activists who have been facing searches, arrests, journalists who have been facing police searches,

media organizations here have been being declared for an agent and joseph and being declared undesirable organizations. and people as well have been facing, you know, arrest just for taking part in opposition, politicians in opposition, protests rather. so it seems that united russia, the ruling party here, doesn't want to stop at anything to get the results that they want. and these elections, and we're seeing the authorities crackdown ahead of those elections. emily? sure. when in moscow? thank you so much. well, the biggest make processing company, j. b. s, is slowly getting back online after a cyber attack disrupted production in north america and australia. the ransomware attack on the brazilian meet packet came just weeks after a similar incident shut down the colonial oil pipeline in the us. j b. s said it was resuming operations at the vast majority of its plants. earlier, the white house, the j. b. s. had received a ransom demand from a criminal organization based in russia state basically from de w business,

joins me for more. stephen, how serious is this particular attack? will ethan j. b. s. says that it's systems are coming back online today. we've already seen that happening in australia, so that's a good sign. it bleeds, the vast majority of them will be ready again. at any rate, it still is a big deal. it will be a big deal if for some reason they're wrong, or if there remains a major disruption. it's the world's largest me processing company by sales. i'd accounts for a quarter of be production in the us 20 percent, a port production, and a great amount of its beef also ends up in china through export sales. so it is a big deal if there's any disruption at all. what we're seeing right now is that meet buyers are really scrambling, and so that means that prices are going to go up as everyone tries to get a hold of what they can. and this is in an industry and in a sector that's already seen, price rises due to the crone of ours. had many shutdowns at plants processing facilities. and now as the recovery is beginning,

we're seeing rising prices again as demand picks up. but the labor supplies still tight, so that means already high prices, they're going to get higher. so you mentioned that last month with the colonial pot one. now the world's biggest mate, producer. why are we seeing a string at these more high profile attacks? yet? remember, this is still a pretty young field of crime if you think about it. i mean, the internet is still pretty young. the idea of network systems is still pretty young. and so you might want to see it as sort of boundary pushing. how far can you go? i remember there are different actors to right. there's the state level actors that includes the us, russia, china, they're all testing or out they, they're testing their probing critical infrastructure like electricity grids, even water supplies, that some scary stuff. and then there's these ransomware guys who seem to be targeting gps as well, is unclear how much affiliation they have with states. there does seem to be some but you know, these guys were pretty small ball for a long time. i mean, the county i come from in georgia in the u. s. it got attacked by ransomware. i think last year, the year before paid $400000.00 for these were the typical targets because they

were, they were small, they were unprotected. they were below the radar. now they're getting bigger and it's going to be interesting to see what happens because, you know, modern commerce has allowed for certain vulnerability. there's more automation, for example, j b s. there's multiple scanning and data input along every bit of the process and higher networking, but they're also highly centralized the pipeline, for example. so that once you bring down one corporation, you could bring down a major, major supplier, and that's a lot of disruption it. so it seems like the, the pathways there for, for us to see more of this. so how can businesses protect themselves? it's the big question, right? i mean, they're going to have to pay for it. the best way is probably redundancies. you're going to have to either pay for backup servers. you're going to have to build out your i t department so they can quickly engineer and re engineer systems. once they're down, you can look at cyber insurance, but that's still a very young field. it's trying to understand risk management, so there's not a whole lot of options there. right now, at some point the government is really going to have to get involved more government, you're going to have to and there's more talk of this in the u. s. for example, so you're going to see for example,

maybe they'll go out there crypto currency because that the chosen currency for a lot of these ransom attacks. they could try and target that try and regulate that more or they could perhaps forbid ran some payment from companies that would be a pretty big deal as well. so there's some options. we'll see basically from de w business. thanks. look. and he now asked more of the stories making headlines around the world, shrinking authority say, a cargo ship carrying tons of chemicals, thinking ship was 1st damaged by fi and late night, plastic waste, a swamp. the coastline and chemical containers have fallen overboard. it has been described as the countries the worst marine disaster. israel's parliament has elected the veteran politician isaac health. so as the countries you president, he'll take up the largely ceremonial roll next month. it comes with opposition low make a scramble to afford a coalition to once the prime minister benjamin netanyahu, i have until mid, not local time to reach an agreement in the us. the bottom ministration has

suspended oil and gas exploration in an alaskan wildlife reserve permits to drill in the 19000000 acre preserve were given in the last weeks of the trumpet ministration. despite the objections of environmentalists and indigenous groups, the suspension is pending and environmental review. well, joe biden has become the 1st sitting us president, the visit, the site of the tulsa massacre in oklahoma. he marked 100 years since a white mob killed as many as 300 african americans in the middle class district, known at the time as the black wall street bought and says, rights, black americans are still under assault to this day are now the survivors of the tulsa massacre over 100 years old, but never in their long life have they seen a president commemorate the event. president biden held a minute of silence in tulsa to remember

a black community that was subjected to one of the worst rachel attacks in us history for much too long. the history of what took place here was told in silence, cloaked in darkness. but just because history is silent, it doesn't mean that it did not take place. in 1921, a mob of white people looted and burned tulsa's, thriving greenwood district. a proper account of the dead was never completed. but some estimates say hundreds of black americans were killed. those now living in the cities say the president's visit was vital for racial justice. and it's important because there's a beginning of admittance. there's a beginning of, let's speak on these things and let's try to deal with this so that we can grow and move forward. we need his presence. we me for people to continue to learn about the race massacre and to continue to invest,

to really help us move forward. we're looking back is one thing, but thinking about what's next is sort of the big part of it. like, what are we going to do to make things right? what are we going to do to improve our community? but, and has the clear of the commitment for reparation for survivors and their descendants . that says his administration is aware that more needs to be done to address racial inequality. if you're watching the w news still become the cell, the crunchy, packed with protein and officially on the menu. your food author already have given neil the green light. we made the producers who hope they're bugs will become a big business. the 1st gemini says it's trying to help taiwan secure supplies that the buy and take the vaccine made a diplomatic dispute with china. so i pay accused beijing of pressuring by a tech to pull out of a deal made earlier this year. taiwan has been successful in containing the run of ours pandemic thought it's new. it's now contending rather with its worst outbreak,

yet it has struggled to skew doses to rolled out a mass vaccination program, only around 2 percent of the population has been a knock elated against kobe 19. so it's more on this. let's bring in d. w. 's joyce lee from our bureau in ty pay. what do we know about why the deal was halted? so it's more of a diplomatic dispute between china and taiwan. so bear in mind that beijing claims sovereignty over taiwan and germany does not recognize taiwan as a nation. and according to your taiwan health minister search. and john, he reviewed last week that in january. yeah. when taiwan tech was about to compete a do. biotech rep strongly recommended taiwan to remove the

word our country on a draft of the press release before the signing of the contract. so the taiwanese remove that word how country and change that work to taiwan. but a few days they tac toe, taiwan that the signing of the contract would have to be postponed. so taiwanese official was accused china of blocking to do page and 9 such accusation. and that, that taiwan is trying to gain independence through fax with all that in mind, us do we think the top one will still get the by and take fax it so ash through a chinese pharmaceutical company called shanghai goes in and check my son had an

agreement with biotech, that exclusively developed and distributed called the fact games in great china region, including hong kong, macau, and taiwan. and both actually repeated, we said that it would be happy, willing to supply which means to taiwan. but the taiwanese government refuses to obtain, starting through a chinese company so far around 2 percent of the population in taiwan has been vaccinated. why is that number so low? so taiwan had been freshly cobra for you for more than a year. and the taiwanese government was having criticized for being to comes complacent interface over pandemic. so they,

people would say that the government didn't do much to okay. in fact, in before the major local outbreak. and actually the general public in taiwan, including health care workers, were not willing to get a shot before this outbreak. you know, because off side effect concerns as well as, you know, that was really an urgency. so now that more faxing goes this way, including astrazeneca, and now the time when the government has the now to date that it will start a mob fascination program in may, june with the aim to inoculate at least $1000000.00 per week. and another interesting fact is that taiwan sperry and terry

go, is also trying to apply for permission with the chinese government here in puerto and purchased by target faxing to taiwan. and if the application says that both students will be you know, fly straight to taiwan, be from germany, dw, joyously from type i. thank you so much or pressure is growing on tokyo, olympic officials to cancel next month's event. japanese media, se organizes have admitted $10000.00 volunteers recruited for the games have already quit amid the corona virus crisis. tokyo head plan for 80000 volunteers, but might have to make do with significantly fewer opinion polls in the, in japan. so a big majority of people think the games should not take place. the final decision

though, rests with the international olympic committee at her state. the games will go ahead of the aging that germany's koran of ours entry restrictions can play havoc with footballs. european championship later this month, germany now says it will make exemptions for the tournament, the spot, britain being classed as a virus variant area. at present. people who have recently been in britain can on the into germany if they are a german citizen or residence. and then they still have to quarantine a quote, a final of the euros will be held in munich with one same having previously played in london. well, they are only 9 days to go before the euro's kick off. germany take on denmark to not in their 1st warm up friendly to familiar faces have returned and ready to bring so much needed experience to the squad by a munich thomas mother, back in germany team after 2 years. and once again, a leader, just like gorman's mom, hamas, the veteran do,

should give the young team stability and the right mentality for the euros dismissed him is a void, spotless. so i want to give my all, both as a player and as a person. and to get myself into the best shape and possible before the tournament of fish. and of course, i hope i can play that role on the templates. i named off 32 year old homo's is expected to show up the defense. last year, the team conceded 16 goals in 8 games that won't do at the euro's and merlow with his strategic skills and inventiveness could pose some problems for opponents. it's how may i my, the t h p to now we have the friendliness and that should get us going on. thousands i and then the players who trained for a week together who will be out on the pitch yet and already expected to play some

good games. goodish bill up to the front coach joachim nerve and his players know that success at euro 2020 will be an uphill climb or infix had long been a part of the dive in asia and africa in europe. not so much but habits are changing, and as more people turn their backs on animal products, some see a market developing the european food safety agency recently approved meal wounds as a human through here. and a new industry is already flourishing, with farmers hoping to transform insects into another source of protein for europeans, even if it is just a nice one. i report us laws health visited, one of germany's largest insect fonts. the protein of the future is being grown here in a factory building in a village in southern germany. the farm is called 6 feet to eat and they're raising mealworms here. these tiny insects just over 2 centimeters long could be key to

feeding the planets. in fact, 42 insects are rich and protein living up to 70 percent of their entire masses proteins. and in addition to that, they're also rich and healthy. omega 3 fatty acid fisher, somebody's like fish tissue except with fish. you have a 2 percent shared mega 3 fatty acid for somebody. and some in say my especially the meal unites housing over 14 percent 7 times as much as i said. so when you click the seating 5, literally millions of insects i'm being raised here. mealworms crickets, grasshoppers. each breed with very particular needs, like steady temperatures of up to 40 degrees. the insects lift for just 4 to 5 weeks before they make their way into a fridge fall into

a deep sleep. that ends in a roasting oven there packaged and sent to stores, restaurants, or straight to consumers who are currently paying premium for the product. but with the u. paving the way the company hopes to produce cheaper soon. because i'm sending up these in this to new york city. there are some insects ideally suited for ethical factory farming would like to meet with the cricket. currently establishing some level of automation and our processes to get away from a lot of the manual labor that's currently needed by certain that that's a way to cut costs out us and that that will help freedom consumer prices down to push this bond on this because he spent recent in place me, but what about all those people who can't stomach bug on their salad or their pastor? this while they can go to the noon becca? could heinlein is a baker noon back. and he has been specializing in interesting ingredient like spells or insects. his insect bread contains 20 percent me

a warm flower. its pricey at over $80.00 for a small loaf. but customers has quickly taken an interest as a given say, a positive, but we were positively surprised, especially with regards to our older customers. we thought that the younger generation would be more likely to try out something new, but in fact, it was the overseas room and all that got really excited about life. and many even tried to hold me a ones to reason enough for the baker to hope that his store stays busy and customers are enjoying more of his experiments. you're watching data, but news coming up next in d. w, use asia. i want baby problem, the country's fertility right is plummeting. ad it now has the lowest fertility right worldwide. we ask why and the wild elephant heard that has captured
