quite wanton destruction to europe. lawmakers from his governing democrats proposing nearly $40000000000.00 additional aid for you. crime. well, the signing of that deal happened on what was victory in europe day in former soviet countries. it's a day mocking the defeat of nazi germany in world war 2 and ukraine. it's usually marked with large parades, but there were no such public events this year for fear of russian attacks. ah, it may be victory day, but ukrainians have not got much to celebrate. keeps independent square, almost empty, and ceremonies kept small then barbecue. this is remember and say, commemorating all those who died during world war 2 to the year more and on this day, we are also commemorating the ukrainian wealth died during this kern warranty. i

don't like to color the war actually, but an act of aggression by the russian federation. t. irish bookers with festivities canceled the silence here. loons heavily. ah, but in the south west, the sound of air sirens is piercing. ukraine says russia fired high precision missiles at the cities of odessa and mich alive and russian troops continued to storm the as of styles. steel, waxen, mary, paul, where the cities last offenders holding out. new mach benuya, either low shackles that combined. and i'll free spirit in the mouth while there is no occupier, you can take that route and our free land name was that there is no invito who can rule of the, our free people in norwood sooner or later we as women. but i'm on, i'm not all ukrainians share zalinski sentiments in an area of mary po, sped for much of the shelling. some are attending celebrations organized by the

moscow back to separatist government of the netscape and promoted by russia. yes, it doesn't look like the 1st and we're not allowed by the ukrainian authorities to celebrate victory day, but we still celebrated this hide in every family. clearly, the thought about the la later, the mayor's office allowed us to lay flowers and thank the veterans. but the ukrainians authorities were not happy about this new proof back in 2014 that we will always be together with russia, with the city which is mostly been destroyed by russian attacks, is now almost entirely under the cremeans control. as ukrainians honor the sacrifices of their forefathers, many look to the future with a fear that the lessons of the past have not been land. well, it was a different story in the russian capital. moscow, where vladimir putin for appraised his armed forces fighting the war in ukraine.

the russian president made a series of false claims about the war, including an allegation that waste in countries provoked his invasion. thousands of troops and military vehicles paraded 3 red square and put news to speech. to repeat his claim that you trot ukraine tried to obtain a nuclear weapon and that he so called a special military operation, had been launched. only after exhausting every other feed for peace. steven norris is a professor of russian history at the miami university in the us state of ohio. earlier i asked him whether he was surprised that president didn't declare victory in ukraine or announce a full mobilization. i think what was said is still quite significant. there was, as you mentioned, a lot of speculation that wouldn't, would announce a general mobile mobilization, which would of course, turn the war into the next phase. but what he did say was quite specific as

reference in the story before about blaming nato. again, for the aggression referencing neo nazis and ukraine, claiming that this is ongoing aggression, that's ongoing war is a defense of the mother land, claiming that don bus is an essential part of the russian motherland. and you know, again and again, referencing neo nazis and bender writes, and i'm using the rhetoric that is used to justify this invasion using the lives that is used to justify this invasion for, for purposes of the picture day speech. and that works something of a difference of the usual victory, a speech giving given everything you've just said, the rhetoric that we've heard from flood me person. what does that lead you to believe he's plans are now going forward? it's hard to say, although, you know, last year, for example, there's, there's a sort of a usual way of giving the victory day speech that putin has employed. he's a certain phrases again and again, kind of makes the repetitive ritual of the speech about the secret victory, one and one more to the necessity of defending the mother land and the willingness

of russians across time to defend the model and sacrifice themselves. the greatest hits really that he gives in the 1st half of the speech. the 2nd half of the speech is recently has been kind of vague references last year. for example, he talked about, you know, those who are denigrating, russia and who falsified history. and he made some references to growing the nazi isn't 2 years ago in 2020, he actually praised the allied contributions to war. so what, what is really alarming and someone ominous about this speeches are these very specific references to nato and native aggression. the lies that he's used for in order to justify this invasion, which means it's maybe we were looking for the speech to do something that it normally doesn't do. but really what it did do is in fact what we were looking for . now there was some emphasis, quite a lot of emphasis on, on the don't bass in the speech and no a specific reference to the sovereign country of ukraine. does that lead you to think that russia has not actually revised its war aims away from trying to eventually take over all of you crime?

i think so. it is. i don't think there was a great revision here. he didn't try to claim victory in a limited sense. he didn't try to claim victory at all. he again and again talked about the don bass about the sacrifices of people that donned us about the neo nazis that are leading the fight against the don bass, which is important words, you know, a fight against historic say, rush itself. so yeah, i think the speech wasn't indeed just a way of reiterating warnings from the beginning. that was stephen norris, professor of russian history of miami university in the us state of ohio, speaking to me a little bit earlier. well, here are some other developments in the ukraine conflicts. now. the russian ambassador to poland was met with loud protests and a victory de reef lying in war. so he was then splattered with red paint. the polish government opposed any large scale commemoration and offered little security . the russian diplomat said he's proud of his country and he's president several

100 people in the german city of cologne, of showing their support for russia by driving in a long motor came through the city with police security, most had flags of russia or the soviet union. ukraine supported shouted out here and there, but police said there were no clashes. un secretary general antonia good terrorist has visited moldova, which borders ukraine. he thanked moldova for taking in hundreds of thousands of ukrainian refugees. and he called for more financial support for the country. with the son of former philippines dictator, ferdinand mar, cause is set to become the country's next leader. following a presidential election vote counting indicates that ferdinand marcos junior has received more than twice as many ballots as he is main rival. lenny robledo protest is fearful of what a marco's presidency will mean for the philippines demonstrated outside the offices of election authorities. in the capital manila

o macos junior is expected to continue with a hard line approach of his predecessor, the outgoing president, rodrigo, to 30 ah, late on monday, the name of the presidential election winner was clear. ah, shouts rang out for a b, b m. the nickname for ferdinand bung bung. marcus junior. as news of the election results spread, his supporters took to the streets to celebrate. ah, the candidates himself reached out to his supporters. i want to thank you for all you have done for us. there are thousands of you out there volunteers parallel groups. political leaders that have cast their lot with us because of their belief in our message of unity because of their belief in the

candidates his when cement his families returned to power in the philippines. following the revolution that toppled his late father in 1986. the elder ferdinand marcos ruled the philippines as a dictator for 2 decades at his tenure was infamous for its corruption and brutality. for many, it was unthinkable that the marco's clan would ever run for the highest office again. after returning from exile the marcus's return to public life in the philippines with several family members taking on political positions, many of bong bongs, younger supporters don't connect him to his father's crimes. but i'm in a bubble on thought that we believed that b b m is starkly different from his father, the bbm, so that ferdinand bung bung markers run his election campaign on the promise of

unity, but has failed to explain his policy plans in detail. analysts warren, that his administration will most likely mean more strong men postering and less democratic freedoms and transparency or changes. also coming to sri lanka after the prime minister there announced his resignation amid escalating political violence. may hinder roger pox as decision to step down came off to several people were killed in mass protests. demonstrators have been demanding for weeks that he resign. for just as blame him for the economic crisis that's led to soaring prices and shortage of basic necessities. gale's on the streets of colombo, the crisis and yolanda has reached a tipping point. government supporters have had enough of the protesters. i

and i know how to get them the bond on that ends and wreak havoc across the capital. she lanka is facing its worst economic crisis in decades. it's foreign currency resolves, have virtually run dry, forcing the government to ban all imports. this has led to severe shortages of food, fuel, and other essential items. many believe the president for economic mismanagement had come up. thank god lander with . 7 prime minister my in that are your boxes resignation was a small but important the grief for the protestors. but many now one the president to go as well. oh wow. it

can be happier and i think the people are the longer must be or joined us by the the fact that he has designed it, it's probably one step good at length to add something good. but i think we have a long there to roy in terms of we're finding people to the right places, but this is a fantastic victory bodies for these people. if this actually happened, the military has deployed hundreds of troops to help contain the unrest. and government has imposed an indefinite gov. you. ah, but the protest does show no sign of quitting. i will finally now a picture of marrow. marilyn monroe by the artist andy warhol has fetched a new wreck quoted auction for a work by an american artist. will holes silk screen portrait titled shalt sage
