ah ah ah, this is either news life from berlin, damage control jeremy's efforts to repair relations with key ramp up with a visit by the foreign minister. amanela barrow bach is in ukraine, promising more economic and military support and to help you create, bring russian war cry criminals to justice. also coming up victory in the philippines for the man who wants to be judged by his actions, and not his ancestors. for not marco's junior, the son of the late victor is set to become the philippines next president. after

a landslide, where plants, the european union pledges a $1000000000.00 to help poverty stricken syrians living with the effects of rising from prices because of the war in ukraine. and standing in from the prince of wales, assume the role of the queen on doctor's orders. ah, i re one, i'm layla iraq. it's good to be with you. the diplomatic rift between germany and ukraine appears to be healing with a visit today by germany's foreign minister. on atlanta. barrow bark is the 1st cabinet minister to travel to ukraine. since russia invaded in february, the ukrainian government criticized germany for its initial reluctance to supply

heavy weapons and force economic ties to rush up. but berlin is now sending tanks and artillery and has dropped its opposition to an e. u. led phase out of russian energy and at a press conference. so just moments ago where miss bare bach described why germany is supplying heavy weapons and why it is cutting its dependence on russian oil tick, listen beyond me, i fluently crushed and we have understood shuffling all too clearly that economic dependencies do not give us security. if the aggressor doesn't care about the well being of his people's, and this is why we are reducing our dependence on russian energy to 0, consistently and forever. well, early i talked to the dover, corresponded funny for shar in keith, and asked for bare box main message during her ukraine trip. basically, the germany stands by ukraine are that they do express this solidarity not just by

going to butcher. that was one of the 1st a visit basically during this short trip you do not know exactly how long it's gonna take. a lot of things are secret revolving on this trip, but the fact that you pay to respect to boucher 1st and now talking about the, the very important element that people need to be held accountable. who committed those crimes that according to human rights organizations. but also a lot of western allies you of ukraine and bound why equal to war crimes these old boots that ukrainians really want to hear? these are the things that people, they actually anticipating already to hear from germany. but nobody so far from the german government came to visit except now the foreign minister there was a lot of diplomatic row in between a berlin and kia for the past few weeks. so now having this press conference there in between june and firmness, dental, ukrainian counterpart called caliber is really as ukraine already says, historical turning point, given the fact that now it's quite clear,

the germany really wants to be not just talking about solidarity, but really actively supporting this country and not just with a few 1000 and helmets as they were planning to do prior to the beginning of this war. but we haven't met with heavy weaponry now in practical terms. of course, some of that and re, is something that ukrainian so we just need to be taught how to actually applies as we have heard there from a foreign minister. babel appear at the training training on the whole with sir, are about to begin in germany. but also this is actually where people here and ukraine looking forward to here hearing is that germany says we are going to support germany, is going to support ukraine when it comes to your membership. however, at the same time they of course want to keep add all of that realistic saying that this is not going to happen overnight is not going to be a short when it comes to your membership have and the have to remember people took to the streets and of 2013 here and key of people who are dying because of they are

longing towards the vast towards the european union. in fact, a clear about the foreign minister of ukraine said this is an issue of life and death. the e u membership, once again, here, germany really wants to keep those hopes quite realistic that this is something that's not going to happen overnight. having said that, were there any remaining points of tensions? it seems for now, especially now that presidents lensky and foreign minister babies have met as well . it seems like everything is in a restart mood. at this point, you have to know there was a lot of discussion. a reset meant almost a diplomatically as president shot i'mma. germany's presidential time i was an invited by you, but the ukranian officials here over the 1st of all, over some allegations that he's connections are quite close with russia. given his

form of functions before he became president a in germany when he was for a minister among the, among the cabinet of the form a chance, the medical. but it seems like all of this has been sorted. and it seems as i say, because we have to see better practical and things are going to follow here to these new commitments. but it seems as if germany is really stepping up and some people really wonder whether it had to do maybe a little bit with that push that came a week ago from the opposition leader map to was here actually just a week ago, basically saying that the german government needs to step up, so it is quite likely that after the foreign minister being here now, maybe a german chancellor shoals and even president time maya may follow and acts to on the line these commitments of partnership with ukraine and funding can you give us a quick update of what's happening in easton, ukraine,

the situation that it's really difficult to establish the full picture, but one thing is certain that fighting rages on. however, it's not just an advancement that's been made over the past couple of weeks since of the russian forces have drawn from key of it's not just the russian forces we have made some advanced met, advancements, the southern end of the eastern part of ukraine also be hearing that actually ukrainian forces are stepping up, trying to actually have a counter offensive underway in the north eastern part. ukraine, around how to keep trying to actually make sure that the russian forces redraw from these villages. not basically not trying to avoid that. they take hard key, which was really the risk over the past weeks. it seems like that the ukraine and forces are succeeding in trying to keep the rushing forces away from hockey. but that situation and a picture over remains quite blurry, in fact, so on the observer say that it seems like this is going to be a very prolonged war. and the stand off seems to be quite likely in many parts of

ukraine. by for shar, reporting from the ukrainian capital case, thank you very much for now. western military, alice say the russian invasion has made little progress in recent days for the frontline has shifted slightly as the 2 sides trade patches of territory. many places in the path of the advancing and retreating armies are empty of residence, but some people are staying behind, hoping for peace as it abuse, mathias billing or discovered in a town near nikolai of a village, you raised whiskers right on the front line. virtually no hauls remains on damaged . the village ones had to a 1000 inhabitants. now only a handful, left eye luna lucian, could his one of them get from the vic you sure. it's calm nice korea. we're resting a little, but a few days ago it was terrible because the bombs were falling, shooting fire,

things falling down. a bomb fell down in my courtyard. 12 meters from my bedroom. there was a loud bang and fire. i'm surprised my house didn't burn down. that's how it goes here. one duck yoke. what she calls com means just that fighting is less intense. the village was overrun by the russians, and then we taken by the ukranian. yeah, no, i don't judge the salt is neither the russians nor the ukrainians. it's not their fault, they're forced to do this. she lives here with her son was mentally ill. she says she has not left because she fears not being able to take care of them as well. when the selling starts behind inside, the whole thing i could do with you. this is our little corner, the i'm afraid is basements. i was told there are basements where i can go luxury

louis. but here in our street, a woman was buried while she was in her basement. i'm not going there need to put favorite when shelling stop, this is where we sit together. meanwhile, she tries to make the best of the situations what those are. so that's where the bomb dropped. there was a big crater. i filled it with us and planted potatoes there. helena was born during world war 2. no, she spends the night on the shelf. house is taking a severe hits, but unlike others, it's still standing. and she is maintaining a spirit here who worked at i am holding on growing our life was always modest to mine, but it wasn't bad where they were. i pray to god that all this is over soon.

i lena survived road would to as a toddler, now with a high, she plans to survive this war as well. that report by amity has bellinger the sign now, but the other stories from around the world. at least 43 people have been killed in clashes between rival gangs in a jail and ecuador. relatives have gathered to wait for news of their loved ones and police have taken control of the site in the city of santo domingo. they also seized firearms, explosives, and other weapons. more than $100.00 inmates are reported to be on the rhine. turkish president rich uptime, no one has pledged not to send syrian refugees back to their home country. turkey is taken in more than 3 and a half 1000000 seriously. fled to civil war opposition. parties have been pressuring ergo, on to start. we pay trading them while the european union has announced that it

will contribute one and a half 1000000000 euros in a 2 syrian refugees, the use foreign policy chief warrant that rushes invasion of ukraine is having drastic effects on many, many poverty stricken syrians. the war is contributing to the global rise and food prices worsening. the plight of millions of syrians, donors are being called upon to dig deep to help this middle eastern country, which has been plagued by war for over a decade and earlier had the opportunity to speak to were filippo grande, the united nations high commissioner for refugees. and asked him about how he can focus donors, attention on display syrians in the midst of the russian invasion of ukraine. you raise a very serious issue. and in a way, i'm speaking to you from brussels, i'm participating in this important conference is good that the european union has

decided this year again to convene the conference and to call the attention of the donors on the need of all these millions of people. you know, i'm and it's, it's a complete coincidence. but today the number of syrian refugees registered in the middle east is 5700000. this happens to be today. exactly the same number as the ukranian refugees that have left their country, 5.7. and in a way, it gives a sense of the magnitude of the challenges that we're facing. millions of people in different parts of the world. a lot of attention on ukraine, that of course detracts from other crises. and there's not just syria, i'm just back from africa. there's many crises there and in other parts of the world. unfortunately, we need my job. the job people like me in the united nations in the 8 community, is to keep the world's attention focused on all these crises. because all these

people that are affected need help and need support. absolutely, and we're going to talk in just a moment about the crisis in ukraine, but i'd like to get your take on. some countries have resist taking in syrian refugees. others have gone above and beyond one of them being, of course, a turkey which is home to nearly $4000000.00 syrian refugees, but it's now facing a public backlash. what do you make of those developments that are taking place right now in turkey where it is very worried, but this was a very strong theme in today's comfort. the, the fatigue that country surrounding syria are experiencing because they have hosted millions of syrian refugees for so long and you know, some of them, lebanon, for example, are facing catastrophic challenges of their own. many lebanese citizens are now

as poor and as impacted by, by this crisis as the refugees themselves. so inevitably, this fatigue and how do you come to, that's what you guy would say in 2 ways. one is by stepping up to support that international community provides 2 countries like 30 like lebanon, like george, that like iraq, like egypt, other countries in the region, posting millions of refugees. and also by trying to find solutions for this long standing refugee see to wish. now, as you know, that the mass flight from ukraine, it resonates deeply with the syrians. you see there lived experience, mirrored in some ways. do you think ukraine ukraine's european neighbors rather are doing a good enough job of looking after people fleeing conflict? i think they're doing a very good job and the declaration of the temporary

protection status for refugees from ukraine that was decided by the european union . very early on, just after the start of the russian invasion at the beginning of this big exit, this was really a very positive measure. it allowed people to disperse around europe to join families and communities in those countries to be supported by them. it allows people to have access to services even to jobs if they want to work. so it was a very forward looking decision. and the yesterday was europe day. and i tweeted that this. i hope that this exemplary response of europe to this ukrainian refugee prices can be in all the same solidarity the same vision can be applied also to response to crisis in other parts of the world. in conclusion, sir,

what do you know about the situation of refugees who we understand have been forcibly displaced to russia and how they're being treated right now? we have very little access to ukrainian refugees in russia. and we had the same very limited access, even before the 24th of february. no. following the 2014 conflict in don bass in easton ukraine. there was already a number of ukrainians that went to russia, but our axis is extremely limited. we. we have heard of reports for civil displacement of deportation, but we have asked the ukrainian government to give us lists and names so that we can raise this issues with the russian authorities as well. united nations high commissioner for refugees. physical candy, sir, thank you for your time. thank you very much for him by britain's queen. elizabeth

is missing the ceremonial opening of the u. k. parliament for the 1st time in nearly 60 years, due to mobility issues. when instead she handed over the duty to earth hare, prince charles, who delivered her traditional speech laying out the government's policies, it's the most high profile duty that the 96 year old monarch has missed in recent months. let's take you an hour to london to our correspond at their bergen mass. spare, good. good to have you with us sir. prince charles stepping in to do the queen's speech. how did he do? i think he did very well. he had a long apprenticeship, really? it's very significant, i think for, for the monarchy, very symbolic that the queen has missed this really most important constitutional day. and that she is basically handling it over to her son and also her grandson.

he was present in the chamber today as well. so it's assign definitely of a transition, and if you look at prince charles, you really knew what he had to do. i don't think he got any and he for drawing at least i couldn't see any of that. i might, you know, my interpretation that i, his tone of voice i thing was slightly skeptical because he didn't sound extremely enthusiastic. but that might come in away with the fact that he had to read out what somebody else basically wrote for him. so he's not obviously reading his own speech, but it's, he's reading it for the government and that might just be a sign i, you know, he has to be basically above politics and has to read out with other what others right for him. now the reason for the queen's absence is essentially for health reasons. her platinum jubilee is coming up. what do we know about the state of her health?

well we know that she really hasn't been seen much in public at all. so she, she hasn't really, i'm had or any, any big appearance we had a memorial. our service for, for prince philip, this is where it, where she was, you know, where she was seen. but other than that, she's have really kept a very low profile. and we've had numerous our talks about about health now. she has mobility issues. she also has had covey and really, since then she, she really hasn't appeared in the public much so. so it is really a sign that her, you know, prince charles, he's, he's has been for the, for a long time. i had had a big role in an royal duties. he has been taking over slowly. but, you know, for a day like this, it really normally where she very publicly is present. i'm in the, you know, in british life she, she has not. and this is definitely probably

a sign that slowly prince charles will be taking over more and more of the road you teeth did of your correspondence. berg, mass reporting from london. thank you. the son of former philippines dictator for not marcos is set to become the country's next leader for not marcos junior is poised to win the presidential election with more than twice as many votes. as as me, rifle is expected. victory has sparked protests in the capital manila with demonstrators alleging voting irregularities. the candidate, popularly known as bong bong, has released a statement in which he asks people to quote, judge me not by my ancestors, but by my actions. incidentally, his running mate, sarah, do thursday, or pio, daughter of the controversial, outgoing present is likely to become vice president critics regard a marco's duty, the victory as a blow to democracy and civil rights. 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. 7 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 cashed 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, and 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 is returned to public life in the philippines with several family members taking on political positions. many of bung, bongs younger supporters don't connect him to his father's crimes level. i mean a bubble on thought that we believed that bbm is starkly different from his father, the bbm, so that ferdinand bung bung mark. chris ran his election campaign on the promise of unity, but has failed to explain his policy plans in detail. analysts war and that his administration will most likely mean more strong men postering and less democratic

freedoms and transparency. and, you know, we've corresponded georg motus is covering these consequential elections for you. and he's joining us from the philippine co capital manila. looks like a once an imaginable, a return to rule for the mark was family, have young voters giving them a clean slate and a lot, i think what it has happened here in the philippines is truly is troy. the risk return of the mockers dusty. and if you wonder how did that happen? well, the answer is that marco's simply appealed to particularly young voters. voters who don't remember the, the, the system are under the dictatorship, the crimes that were committed back. then had the question of why that is the case is twofold, on the one. and there are simply ever since the marcos were ousted some 40 years

ago from the philippines, there is no culture off of memory memorizing the events. so how things were on the dictatorship and also there's been a social media campaign, basically had to whitewash those dark days in the philippines. judge me not by my ancestors, but by my actions. what exactly is he promising the people that voted for him? well you've made through quite big promises are on no grading job, saw her bringing down food prices. the philippines were a hard hit in the pandemic as are many nations here in southeast asia. of course, how he's got out to a cheap all that he remained largely sale the avoided press conferences. he avoided critical questions and sold it is running, made a salad, looked out to the daughter of the current strong man who was running the country with an iron fist. and many i've said are what they fear. know of there's a couple,

a leading couple here in the philippine says that the policy of the data of a strong or authoritarian style of government will be continued in our final 30 seconds to gather gay or tell us about the role that social media played. i played a huge role, i had an expert tell me or that the markets as have really managed her or do white watch the history and to criticize, sir, there are political opponents. now they deny those. but many of that the campaign was so professional that get caught me, reached back to someone with a strong financial arm. and it presented at the dark days of the dictatorship, present, golden iraq. and that is what many borders have told me that they want those back. don't those days back and tell you correspond, garrick matters reporting at from manila. thank you so much for your continued coverage. my now of the top a story that we're covering right now,
