2:01 pm
as the group looks to pile more pressure on moscow. also, the program of the russian missiles rock key flawed him is zalinski warns moscow's pilots, those responsible will be found. meanwhile, civilians are born to evacuate the eastern city of lesson chance as russian forces push to capture it. plus the mysterious tragedy in a south african township authorities are investigating after $21.00. teenagers are found dead in a tavern where there was celebrating the end of school exams. no cold has yet been found. ah, i'm good. how both as welcome to the program. ukrainian president, florida. miss zalinski has addressed the g seven's annual summit that's underway right now. here in germany he joined the leaders of the world's richest democracies as well as the europeans mission president via video link. so ascii,
2:02 pm
called for tough sanctions against russia and the delivery of air defense systems to fight moscow's aggression. he also said he wanted the war ended before the winter sets in your there 3 day summer g. 7 leaders are seeking to signal unity as concern. row over the wes long term commitment to ukraine. i'm a joint in the studio by melinda, crated. i used chief political correspondent, and in elmore d. w. brussels bureau chief alyssa phenomena join aren't joins us from the site of the g 7 summit. let's on, let's start with g 7, just released a statement on ukraine. tell us more while it is a strong statement, as we expect certain the statement that the 7 leaders are showing that there are united and committed to continuing to help ukraine to uphold ed serenity and
2:03 pm
territorial integrity. and they're also saying in the statement, they are ready to support ukraine as long as it takes, which is a strong statement. i would say they're also speaking about to plan for reconstruction and rebuilding their country. so there are committed to helping ukraine in a long term. and of course, you can also find a very strong condemnation of russia's brutal war on ukraine in the statement. molina, as i just mentioned, reconstruction of ukraine, all of shawls has suggested that ukraine should get something like the marshall plan. i said, what does it mean with that? and is it likely to come out of the summit? the marshall plan was the plan that of a enormous financial and, and economic support that the u. s. provided for europe and especially for germany,
2:04 pm
although in fact it was the defeated enemy of the us at the time following the 2nd world war. and it was that aid that basically stabilized an economy that otherwise would have been in free fall, thereby enabling germany to get on its feet not only economically, but also politically as a democracy. and essentially, when olaf schultz promises a martial plan for ukraine, he had is the same twin goals in mind. both economic stabilization, in the face of the enormous tragic destruction of urban urban centers, of infrastructure, of residential housing. and of course also the death of many, many ukrainians. so economic stabilization, but also political stabilization to ensure that ukraine can be a vibrant democracy and ultimately a member of the you and of finance ministers from the g 7 countries in fact met.
2:05 pm
prior to this summit of the leaders and said that they would commit 19000000000 in reconstruction aid, the you taking also a very significant portion of that and ongoing macro economic support for ukraine's budget. because obviously it is also enormously strained by this war . economic help is wanting reconstruction aid, but also zalinski asked for more sanctions today. what can you tell us about those sanctions? there's been a good deal of disruption discussion about a cap on the price of russian oil and gas. and this because essentially we've seen something of an unintended consequence as the effect of western countries trying to win themselves off of russian oil and gas has not put depressed prices for those fossil fuels for coming from russia, but actually sent them soaring,
2:06 pm
meaning that vladimir putin today, or is a great deal more for selling his exports of energy, although they are now being diverted to other countries, no longer to, to the west, but he's earning more than he did initially. and that of course, is helping finance his war. so the idea of this price cap is that it would essentially target the main insurer of russian oil tankers. tele, not ensure, if you don't sell at the price that we demand, we will sanction you. and that essentially would theoretically prevent prevent sales at higher prices. it's a very complex mechanism. details still have to be worked out by g 7, finance ministers. and they would very much like to have other countries on board because in fact, russian exports are being diverted to countries like china, like india. india is present in this meeting today and certainly that will be a topic on the agenda whether it could be persuaded to put some distance between
2:07 pm
itself and vitamin putting when it comes to purchase as of energy use, especially belinda india is one of the countries that have been invited as guests to a meeting that in the bavaria, the other countries, argentina, indonesia, synagogue, on a south africa alex of the these leaders were invited to join. why is that so important? the german shall so all of shoulds made it repeated it clear that from this point of view, it is important not only to focus on the west, but also to pay more attention to the large democracies in their latin america and africa. in an asian, of course, are inviting those leaders a he invited key swing states. that are important in very many ways. when we speak about russia and holding the russian president vladimir putin accountable, it is important for their g 7 nations to convinced indonesia and india argentinean,
2:08 pm
of course, south africa and synagogue. that it's important to join the west to condemn russia's war on ukraine. on of course, to join the international campaign to impose sanctions on their regime in moscow. and sir, in addition, when we talk about other challenges that the world is facing, for instance, climate change. of course you need those countries to be on board to have her am bold term and it targets to have ambitious commitments when it comes to the tackling climate change. and of course, there are other problems when we look at the state of the global economy and those countries invited to you. i also impacted by the economic follow of the war in ukraine, and it was clear that it's what the german chancellor made clear that he wanted
2:09 pm
them to be here. he wanted to discuss those issues with them. and he wanted to make clear that that g 7 leaders didn't want to discussed the issues about or what's going on about those countries without having them here in person. i some of them out there reporting from l ma from the g 7 some. thank you very much. know so thank you very much. melinda crane, our chief political correspondent, here in the studio and from one summers to another. now, i had of a nato conference in madrid. this week, secretary general against stoughton back says the alliance will drastically increase with rapid response forces as a result of rushes unprovoked invasion of ukraine. we will enhance our battle groups in the eastern part of the alliance, up to brigade levels. we will transform the nato response force
2:10 pm
and increase the number of our high read this forces to well over 300000 rules of bruce, our ability to reinforce in crisis and conflict. including with more pre positioned equipment and stock points or military supplies. more forward deployed capabilities like air defense, strengthen command and control, and upgrade the defense plans with forces preassigned to defense specific alice and stone mark speaking them. before speaking at the g 7 summit, the you ukraine's president von russian pilots that he would find those responsible for multiple explosions that rock the capital keith over the weekend officials, they're say more than a dozen russian cruise missiles hit the city, the stripes, damage residential buildings, and a near by a school on sunday,
2:11 pm
killing one and wounding several others. meanwhile, authorities monday warned civilians to urgently evacuate the eastern city of las, it chanced in the don bass region as russian forces push to capture it. and it argues nick conley is in the ukranian capital. here for a little earlier, i asked him if russia is winning the battle in the don bus? i think on the local level 17, this is a chance. yes. this is going in the way that the russians had hoped will be much more slowly and with much greater losses than they had expected. but i think if you kind of zoom out and look at the bigger picture, dumbass, they still only control about half of the done yet region. yes, they control most the lo hunter region that makes up the dumbass. but they took most of that in the 1st few weeks when ukraine basically was fighting a war on several fronts the same time. so they've not made much progress in the best part of a few months. you remember mario pl fell to the russians in may. so basically it's the 1st big city 70 it's that has fallen to russian hands now in. yeah,
2:12 pm
a month in terms of list a chance. guess there is a, with the risk that people leave it too late, that they don't follow those warnings until they can hear the fighting, basically around the houses and then either can't get out or get out in a very dangerous way. and we've seen people lose their lives trying to get out. and i think the hope from the ukraine's had been they would be able to hold on to the chance. but it has quite a good strategic location. there's a river and some hills that are quite easy to defend. so if they were just fighting against russians trying to get to list a chance from 7 to the next than they would have quite good chances. but the russians do seem to have outflanked them and now coming to the other side. but there's no sense that this is a kind of celtic withdrawal and this is going to fall any time soon. this is painful, street to st. artillery battles of the kind you're basically hasn't seen since 2nd world war. and yet all of this is going very slow with lots of lives lost among soldiers and increasingly, cities that have just been destroyed, wiped off the map. it is that basically no one's gonna be able to go back to what this war ends the just gone. now, keith has a long time, been so bad and the attacks now serve sunday rockets hit the city hard people there
2:13 pm
in key of coping. i think it's definitely a very painful reminded that anywhere in ukraine is vulnerable to russian attack, however far away you are from those front lines. the russian cruise missiles, the hit, key of a we understand were released were fired from the caspian sea. thousands of clumps away says busy no quarter of this country that is protected. does this have been talk that ukraine's air defenses are good enough in terms of protecting from planes? ahead and that's why we haven't seen a russian planes flying above ukraine or most of, you know, keep certainly, but against cruise missiles, that's a much harder task and without western cruise, missile systems of air defense that can deal with this kind of results. that risk is going to stay, i think, you know, there is a certain sense fluctuating if they're not going to let themselves be distracted or frightened that this kind of intimidation isn't gonna work. you still see people out in the cafes on the streets trying to go about their lives. the people who have
2:14 pm
come back have made that choice, that they're gonna go back something to normality and one strike of this isn't gonna change them. are correspondent calmly. they're reporting from keith. thank you. nick. russian shelling earlier in the war has particularly devastating consequences for one man in the town of urban that's near chief. he lost his wife and 2 children in a mortar attack. now he seeking justice or what he believes was a deliberate targeting of civilians and a warning. some people may find some of the images in the following report. upsetting said he, pity been as always spring flowers for free, for his wife, for his son. and for his daughter, they were all killed while trying to escape the russian occupation of their town. herb said he was elsewhere with his sick mother at the time. that's where he heard what had happened. the boy, the lawyer i just shouted. though i stood on the balcony and just shouted at the
2:15 pm
new book, it wasn't an accident. they were in the only humanitarian car door for people to leave the city. they're just there that all the russians knew about it. if i could that a horse see little skill sold other of a thumbs ladder. the world was watching new york times photographer took this picture just after said his family was hit. many of the other killings in the area well only discovered after the russians left hundreds of people died during rush and bombardment. and the occupation keith's regional prosecutor has opened more than 4000 war crimes investigations. he's grateful for any help he can git. where's the secretaries look for that? i have to thank the media, know it a little more on his and also the whole on the civil society might see a key. but some of their work has already helped to identify many russian soldiers who article that have been committing crimes more equal both, but it is part of the operational symptoms. even
2:16 pm
a crucial part of the evidence that we collect. and oh, it's a snowball e just they're not. they look as if it is what i sonoma, said he pity venus is deep in his own war crime investigation. he is an i t expert and these pre war skills help. he has spent weeks collecting photos, videos of the scene, and comparing them with maps on school. it's all to try to find out who killed his family of his notebook, the lists through ya knew your interest and well, i'm not sure if you'll find him yet. the renewal of it, and i'm not even sure the man is still alive, nor was more to law. but perhaps with the help of some musicians we will least find out what kind of brigade it was from. who was the leader capable of who gave the order deductibles thought, shriek, the army is not just a collection of random people. there is always a commander who gives the order. yes. commanded catherine. the yield is elaine said

2:18 pm
and there is another issue. i will put it simply if people are remembered and somebody's working for them, they're still alive him. is that the deal in linear yesterday? so let's have a look now. some of the other stories are making headlines around the world. police and turkey have released around $400.00 people detained during an hour. lord pride bonds and central assembly took his largest city has been b. l didn't into march since 2015, but large crowds nonetheless gather every year to march the end of pride week. local resident, bank pots and pans in support for the marshals authorities in columbia say at least 4 people were killed when a grandstand collapsed. during a bull fight more than $300.00 others were injured in the incident that came during the traditional corolenko event. when members of the public and to the ring to engage the bulls. activists from the ocean rebellion group half states to protest
