history and left, it's tracy ah, meeting regal in their dreams. and to june this week, do you w ah ah, this is the w news live from berlin, b e u agrees. fresh cited trends against russia after it's a legal annexations and ukraine. brussels promises a tough response with plans penalties from moscow to include a price cap on russian oil. meanwhile, ukrainian troops re take more territory as they advance against retreating russian

forces. president lensky says his troops have liberated dozens of towns in the past week, and now pressing a counter offensive in both the east and the south. also coming up with trim. it is 60 years today since the premier of the 1st james bond film and fans already wondering who could be next in line to play agent double. 07. ah. my manuscripts mckinnon. welcome to the show. every one. the european union has agreed to impose new sanctions on russia in response to the war in ukraine. now these will include a cap on the price of russian oil exports. the security threat from russia is also on the table as members of the european parliament meetings transferred. and the

commission president has told m. p 's that member states need to step up. the security of their energy infrastructure was left on the line. also said b, e is now ready to discuss a price cap on gas as prices saw earlier, i spoke to r e correspondence, jack carrick and brussels and mack thunder in strasburg. and i started by asking jack to tell us more about the new sanctions on russia. well, we know that there's going to be a legal framework has been prepared for this cat cap, this price cap on russian oil. we don't know the details. we don't know how much it's going to be kept up price wise, how long it's going to last, or indeed, how long it's going to work that will be published on thursday as part of the use official journal. but we do know that it has been approved, along with some other sanctions, including the binding of the you citizens sitting on the boards of russian companies for instance. and also some sanctions to try and prevent the existing 7 rounds of sanctions from being circumvented. what we do know there ano is that

hungary has managed to carve itself out of this, this oil cap, this cap on russian oil prices. and we had a statement from the spokes person to the foreign ministry. he said the new you sanctions don't. hom hungry is interests, they been granted exemptions and those sanctions would have violated hungarian interests and endangered. the security of their energy supplied hungry has been opposed to fossil fuel sanctions. pretty much since the beginning since they started being discussed after the invasion of ukraine. and now it seems that simply because it requires unanimity to impose sanctions, meaning all countries have to agree in order to move forward with them. the european union has realized that it just cannot have hungry involved. so they just exempt them by the looks of things. and moving on without the hungarians. all right, max, if i can. if tina, what's the european parliament's response to to russia's illegal annexations of ukrainian land right on. yes. of the european parliament hasn't adopted an

official position on that yet. but from following the debates in the plenary today here in stock book, i gather the, the overall sentiment across groups, political groups and, and party lines. is that the annexation of ukraine territory by the russians is illegal. it's no and void. it doesn't mean anything else, but the further escalation of the war in the region is something that's a lawmakers here or the you should not tolerated to having some strong mark. sierra in the plenary a, some lawmakers took to the podium to call russia a terrorist state. now i'm the overall sentiment and i gather also is that they the majority of lawmakers, or if the thought all are in favor of sanctioned some political groups, a call for even more the conservative group a p p for example, is called for weapons deliveries for tanks. and artillery bite, russia and actually by germany and france to, to ukraine, hashish,

that's something that should be done. and then we've heard from left for example, that they're also asking, in addition to sanctions for diplomatic channels to be reopened, to also pursue a change on a diplomatic front. but overall, bottom line here is that the european parliament and you will not tolerates i russians claims to these territories in the ukraine. and that can i also ask you and plenty peyton's made several hints about the use of nuclear weapons. what is the european parliament position on that by that's correct. so the you some top diplomats are joseph morrell, spoken the plenary this morning and he called it a dangerous situation. he actually said it was a source of concern that a nuclear power was a retreating on the battlefield. now that being said, it did not seem to be a top priority about among most at any piece here today in the debate actually spoke to one of the conservative a lawmakers on the sidelines of the debate and told me that he does not believe that there is any reason to, to believe that russia will use nuclear weapons in ukraine?

that is because this would symbolize defeated and conventional warfare and also, and he believes that he, wes would have sent a very strong message already a telling russia to, to back off with a, with nuclear weapons jack, this is the 8th, the sanctions package since had a february, how effective had the previous ones been? yeah, this is, this is the big question. the european commission present us lavonda lyons. she said that this package shows the fact that they've got it signed off shows that they've been able to work quickly and decisively as you say, there's over a 1000 people targeted with individual sanctions. now as part of all these packages, broad sways of the russian economy as well. the question is, it doesn't really look like they've had too much of an effect, right? the, the was continuing these referendum that is being considered a sham. by the way, they continued russian, i believed them to be land part of the russian federation. but the question is, what else can the european union do?

essentially, there's a few ways you can try and, and war one is diplomacy. another one is hard power entering the war yourself and know you countries want to do that and the other is sanctions. so that is that these are the options on the table. and i think they're quite pleased that they've managed to get these sanctions signed off today. and that's because later this week that the next 2 days of this week, we have a big summit in prague of e. u. leaders, as well as leaders from the political community. this new european political community $44.00 leaders in total are going to be meeting in prague. and what they didn't want was a battle royale on this 8 right. 8th round of sanctions at the summit. so they're pleased that they have managed to get them signed off here in brussels with the ambassadors today. jack park in brussels and next sunday in strasburg. thanks so much. they said he or ukraine says its forces, have retaken towns in the south and east of the country, including parts of the regions. russia illegally, annexed last week. officials installed by moscow have acknowledged setbacks in the

her son. region are correspondent mathias bellinger, visited ukrainian troops in south close to the front line. and despite looming fears of a cold winter, he found soldiers and residents optimistic about further gains. they are digging in. the soldiers have only recently forward to the new position. now they are fortifying their defenses the peering, retrench. it's been more than 3 months now since ukrainian president volume is zalinski announced cubes, counter offensive in the salt law. but we are constantly trying to drive the enemy from their positions with these attempts have been successful color and we are moving forward. we now have new positions and we fortifying them. that is how we make a constant progress forward. you can turn a little from us for quite some time. ukraine's successes in the south have been

less spectacular than those in the north east of the country. but recently the army has been able to make significant gains down south as well. no koreans are convinced that their tactics are more efficient and also more sustainable and the russians there. but that doesn't mean moving forward is a walk in the park when the model is the, is it, they just keep aggressively charging at us when us, they don't care about their own losses. garage and you get the impression that i just don't give a damn about their soldiers, that a couple of their tactics are simple. it's easy to read them yet. but for us, this means that we have to be permanently on watch, was pretty hard. we can never, ever lower our guard. he said that it was the spoil versus what all does light that was a highly behind the lines. villages have come under fire. russian forces passed through this settlement early on in the war. later,

they were driven back. but since the territory has been back under ukrainian control missions, shells have been falling all over the place. believe british lloyd, that the in the beginning, when i 1st experienced an incoming fire and there were explosions everywhere, i thought it would block my house. i left the time, but when i heard that things had come down a bit, i came back, i repaired the roof because it started raining. then i decided to stay. those stops . russia has seen tremendous losses of personnel and equipment. that's why president putin has started mobilizing war troops. but the soldiers here are calm, but the prospect of more russian reinforcements. when i move it, nebraska call, could you think a draft, whoever they wanna. and however many they want on you, but the ro, morales, and the opinion of the locals towards stumbling will not allow them to relax. jim, that is, will i have with the, the floppy. but now the soldiers are prepared for winter,

hoping that they can gain as much territory as they can for as long as the conditions allow it. let's take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world. afghan officials say an explosion has rock to mosque in the capital. cobble near the heavily fortified interior ministry compound. the blood blast killed at least 4 people and wounded a 3rd 25 officials did not immediately say what caused the explosion, said the multiple, sometimes used by interior interior ministry employees. the european union says it may impose tough new sanctions or never on over. it's cracked down on anti government demonstrations. protests of spread to universities and schools, as women and girls to bond and end to oppression. the unrest was triggered by the death last month of a woman in police custody. this he has nobel prize. the chemistry has been awarded to 3 scientists, morse and mel from denmark, and carolyn potosi,
