6:03 pm
believe it's very important that this country has certainty. let's get more now from our report reporter jared read. jerry, 1st question is why you think the country decided for change? i think a lot of factors are playing into the results that we're seeing today. what is clear is that virgins do want change, and they have really turned away from this traditional to party structure in australia, of, of the conservatively rules and, and the central, if labor party and have there's been a huge surgeon support for the greens and climate focused anti corruption, independence, who are doing really well. those independence largely have been taking seats off the incumbent, liberal conservative party. so this is one factor i think another factor is trust. that was a big part of the selection. i think when voters were going to the ballad books today, maybe they were thinking should a man like scott morrison, who's
6:04 pm
a staunch supporter of australia's fossil fuel industry? is he the right person to lead a country that experts say is going to be facing severe weather events going forward? like we've recently seen with, with the floods and with the bush fires, not just climate, but also other challenges as well. soaring prices, cost of living, very high inflation, which is at a 20 year high right now. issues like child care, aged care, housing. there's a rental crisis to i think all of these factors just swill together and voices to want something different. and that different comes in the name of anthony alban easy and his incoming party. it strikes me that a lot of our viewers might not have heard his name. tell us a little bit more about the incoming prime minister. well, anthony albin easy is someone that has been involved in australia, labor movement since he was a very young man. he grew up in public housing,
6:05 pm
he was raised by a single mother in this kind of working class. humble background is something that he is used to try and connect with voices. he is somebody that back when the stranger was changing its prime ministers, he ended up being deputy prime minister for a very short period back in 2013. he is somebody that is not perhaps as ambitious on climate change as the greens and independence would like him. to be, but he has promised to make a strain energy, a renewable energy superpower. he's also promised to tackle inflation. and he wants to give a referendum on getting indigenous people an institutional voice in national policy making. he has largely late a safe campaign. pretty much based on the fact of trust and not being as divisive a figure as perhaps the, the outgoing prime minister got morrison is inclusion, inclusion, inclusion is what i'm hearing there. so with the concern of conservatives in with
6:06 pm
labor, what does this change in government actually portend for the australian people and for the nation? you know, i would love to be able to answer that, but there is a very, we're not quite there yet because the simple fact is, we don't know yet where the labor will be able to lead a majority or a minority government. it's, it's edging towards the 76 magic number it needs in the lower house. it's not quite day yet. and depending on how the postal votes go, there was a record number of postal votes they still need to be counted, will depend on where the labor can push for would it's agenda or whether it will need to go further on. things like climate and corruption, then it would probably be comfortable with if it wants to support and needs the support of parties like the greens and these climate focused independence. as a reporter and one of our resident australians, jerry reed, thank you so much. jared, ukraine said president of a lot of is a lensky,
6:07 pm
says victory will come at the negotiating table, not on the battlefield. russia claims it has full control of the as of stall steelworks and murray, opal, after months of fighting for the city. so lensky says, ukraine wants to get back to normality. me, but i'm all of them. those victory will be difficult. you got along real people, bloody and in battle, accumulates and will be in diplomacy. you have them. i am very convinced of this, the right. there are things that we can bring to an end without sitting at the negotiation table. he goes from liens or html. that's how it is, because we would like to get back everything he's got and russia doesn't want to give him anything. and they did that inches long, mitchell w, corresponded max xander is in chief. and earlier i asked him, what else ukraine's leader had to say. well,
6:08 pm
he training president says lensky made a few interesting statements in that address today. and he also spoke about the situation and, and mario pole and the end of the siege there. and he told us that his audience, that he had many times asked foreign leaders to send military equipment and heavy weapons to help unblock with military means. and since this didn't happen, he had to resort to diplomacy. and other interesting fact he, he gave there was that was that, that it would be considered a victory to take back the territory that ukraine held until the invasion of that ukraine by the russians. as of 24th of february, everything else could then be dealt with at the negotiation table. meeting a russian antics crimea, perhaps, and the dumbest region that was a annexed by that there was a control that it's under control by russian backed rebels since 2014. so it does seem that at the moment i'm a military means or not the only, it's not going to make it is not going to make the difference alone. and the
6:09 pm
president's look more to a diplomatic means, but that being said, the last last meeting, the last negotiation between the ukrainian ants and their russian counterparts was on $24.00 a 22nd of april almost a month ago. and as of now, were not aware of anything else scheduled in the, in the next couple of days. again, after nearly 3 months. it, it certainly appears that the siege of the mario full is over. why was it so important for russia to wind control of this port city? right, so the russians taken mario poll defeating essentially the, as a regiment, as a huge, a propaganda wind for great for their internal propaganda. and they're gonna use it as to, to turn it to make it look like a, like a huge victory. but that being said, maria pull lies strategically between russian antics crimea, and the eastern parts, the parts that are held by snack separatists. and it's a straight from
6:10 pm
a strategic point of view, it's helpful for the russians to control this entire area and be able to create a land quarter, meaning that they can move troops and supplies freely from crimea to the east. in addition to that, it also deprives the ukrainians of access to the sea of herself. and most importantly, the defenders. and they also steal plants and got all the attention of russian forces of artillery of special forces, of, of tanks. and these troops now that were bound and kept busy, i can now regroup and be moved to other parts of the country and engage in the offensive there. max less than half a minute. what's the situation in the rest of done thus? right, so the situation there is intensifying and the russians are pushing forward with full force. and as i said, we're expecting that some of the,
6:11 pm
the russian forces that were bound in that in and around maria pull will actually engage in the fighting in the, in the, in the east there. and the right now as, as of now, there are only 2 cities. we're hearing that in blue husk region that are still you control by ukrainian forces. and some military experts expect that the city of seville don't yeske will be a late c, h 2 in the next couple of days. that is a max xander in keep many things max now to some of the other stories making news around the world at this hour, turkeys president gracie, take her to one, has told the leaders of finland in sweden. he will not accept their application to join nato unless they address his concerns on terrorism. turkey says the 2 countries are harboring kurdish militants. the finish and swedish governments are seeking more talks with her in the world. health organization says there are now
