the socialists and the grains is set to become the main opposition. the new coalition is expected to make it harder for macaroni to implement his domestic agenda, which includes tax cuts and raising the retirement age. ah, let do you, but you did all the total difficulties of the president's party. there is no majority. we have achieved the political objective that we had set for ourselves in less than a month to bring down the man who, with such arrogance, had twisted the arm of the whole country who had been elected without knowing what 4 of your dogs you bought, the blood samples are what they are. ah, the fall rides national rally party also surged in the polls and is projected to increase it seats 10 fold. it's biggest ever results. lead

a marine le pen said her party had achieved its goal of making micron a minority. president. le pen los out to mac, ron in last month's presidential election. but sundays results shows strong support across france who parties at the political extremes. earlier d, w, spoke to lisa luce and paris. she explained what the loss of an absolute majority in the parliament now means from nicole. pull him on my call will have to change his policies. really, it is quite certain that certain of a sudden reforms that he is planning, such as for example, pushing up the retirement age from 62 to 6465 will be very difficult to get through parliament. he will have to compose with other forces on the left and on the right . and if he wants to form a stable alliance with other parties in parliament, that could even mean that he will have to. he would have to proceed to

a re shuffle of his government at least a parcel reshuffle to build another stable group in parliament. what is for sure though, is that the governing road will be rep, very rocky for him on my coin, the coming 5 years. that was did obviously, to lewis reporting for us from paris. russia has said it seized a village near the key eastern city of severe the next, and ukraine has conceded to a set back in that area. this comes a day after ukrainian president of a login. it was a lensky visited troops on the southern front line, where his forces are fighting off attempts by russia to take more territory near the cities of musical life. in odessa, with little changed the frontline positions, natal warns that the war could go on for years to come. it's russian cruise missiles like these that are pounding targets in ukraine. moscow claims to be carrying out precision guided attacks on ukrainian military

infrastructure and command positions. but the soaring civilian death toll and seemingly indiscriminate damage to residential homes and cities refutes those claims. on a visit to the southern front, ukraine's president saw the destruction for himself with about an issue. but a lot of houses were destroyed severely. logistics were disrupted, and many social issues have developed. i've instructed that more systematic help we offer to people who have lost families. and everything that has been destroyed will be restored. there are not enough missiles in russia to weaken our people's will to live. but right now my eastern ukraine is also being pummeled by russian artillery. the city of lucy, sions has endured fierce shelling and now soldiers are digging in to defend the city street by street for civilians that survived the shelling. it's high time to leave. i even hear you artillery this cup of clothes and around some people

understandably get nervous. they're worried about the dried out of here. so it's a constant and it's constantly trying to reassure people. oh, you know, any way we take them as can be better than here. we're saying we're leaving everything behind everything that we've had here for 70 years and we don't know where we'll go. this. i'm ukrainian troops in the z. shands current just on the defensive. they're now firing at russian positions and 7 are done yet so tenaciously refusing to give up the fight. earlier we spoke to d. w. 's manual shows in key of about claims from the russian military that its army is gaining ground, while ukrainian forces are suffering heavy losses. of course, this would be a war off words, and of course the russian side, as the ukrainian side would do,

would, you know, emphasized a lot their gains why did, on the losses of the russian army have a, has done so has made some progress. so my no progress, i would say in areas around 7, o 2, yes, go around there hockey, but so did the ukraine on forces, especially in the south of their country near her, so near as supple reach out. or we've seen also reports in russia, media of the major tribe, which would have killed a lot of high ranking ukrainian offices. these hasn't been corroborated independently of by depressed by international press or by the ukrainian aside. but of course, that there are heavy losses on both sides, both of your coin inside and the russian side. russia has a really, a majorly increase. it's offensive, especially in the new house region. as some reports, some intelligence report as say, dasa, even russia has a placed all of his reserves,

are there in no hands in order to caleb this offensive in the coming days. and heres roundup of other stories making news at this hour. hundreds of people have protested denise's capital against a referendum, unconstitutional changes cold by prison. chi it critic society has been extending his power grub up resolving parliament in march in 2nd, dozens of judges. earlier this month, the greek coast guard has rescued rescued. rather 108 migrants from a sail boat eugene seen the sailboat was found rudderless, and leaking, migrants hold authorities that 4 people were still missing. moldova had upheld upright march in support of l. g. b t writes. it took place under heavy police protection because of threats of violence. while the was the socially conservative society that has come undergoing influence of the orthodox church surveys show, most mold opens have a negative view of the l. g

b t community. please listen. southern china has been hit by severe storms flooding several cities. at least 6 people have died in house, collapses, and months lights on the world collapses were also reported. the rainfall in some areas is the heaviest in 60 years old. don't hear. well, you don't left his presidential candidate, gustavo petra wins columbia's election by a narrow margin. the former gorilla and current senator will be colby's 1st left, his leader, his ed shout, his opponent, former mayor, and millionaire rodolfo. have none this petros when march a drastic change in presidential politics for a country that has long marginalized left for its perceived association with decades of insurgency. now, earlier i spoke with dee de johan ramirez and asked how petrol was able to pull off the surprising victory. ah, he had a very successful electron company, very successful communication campaign,

because actually he presented himself as said renovation as a change as a, a break. we continue to by the truth, is that gustavo petro has been doing politics in columbia for the last 30 years. he wasn't the congress 1st think he was diplomatic then, who was major a bullet that one of the main jobs in politics in columbia. now he's again into congress now. he becomes a president, but he, he has very been very successfully presenting himself as a renovation. and father in stock on the other hiking was also a former gary yet. so he was very also successful in re right in his bust. his all plant revolve. hernandez is a very rich man, and it was easy for better to, to attack him off being part of their political and economic lead uh the country. so how likely is petros election likely to change columbia's political landscape is a major change. it's remembered that his victory represents the 1st time that the left

to wink takes power in the country. columbia has been enrolled for debt, gets for mainly to political parties, and this is a major change he has promised this left wing of policies saw shell of policies, and there are lots of expectations on his government that will start on august. so in a little bit more than a month or i sort of kids club is going through a shift to the left. but at the same time, both candidates ran on platforms rejecting the political establishment. so why are colombian so dissatisfied with their government? because as i said, that colombia was rule for mainly to political parties for decades. and during decades they didn't, they weren't able to tackle the main problems of the country. columbia went ah, into a civil war for more than 50 years. columbia was have been fighting against direct traffic and i'm in the golden age of drug trafficking and via the government. so in

this contra one and able to tackle this problem e security. and just to give you one recent example, lassie are aiming the huge crisis provoked by the pandemic. amy, the huge economic crisis, the government of now the going president, even duke of proposed a fax reform tax reform to increase taxes for the middle class. it provoked the a huge political ah, crisis and le thousands of people took to the streets to protest and that mom into wasa turning point for gustavo, better to, to come out as a new, as a, as a possibility. and also rather fernandez as i understand outside of, let's remember that in this presidential race, all political, traditional of the political parties were out of the, of the race. and that's why because people were dissatisfied with the elite, the political elite of the country. that was d. w 's johan ramirez, reporting for us in bo guitar. and now shift gears in turn to formula one competition or red bull driver max for stop and has claimed victory in

a thrilling canadian grand prix of for holding off a late challenge. ah, max 1st step in started in pull position and made sure it would stay that way attains last 15 laps for the red bill driver narrowly through this race wide open with ferrari's carlo scenes. launching a late attack, but for staff and managed to keep the spaniards at big foot on a. i'm not sure you could air us working on a you, but i was amazing. withstood the old of prussia, brilliant, brilliant drive. the dutchman has ny 1. 5 of the last 6 races was a really exciting idea and i mean, i was giving it everything i had of course carlos was doing the same. you know, following is tricky on here, but i could see was pushing, charging, pushing. but of course our to on your, on the director has been easier to georgia. so yeah, the last few laughs are a little 1st step in has tightened his grip at the very top,
