ah i'm gal office thanks for joining us this year as a nobel peace prize is being shared by 3 champions of human rights. the jail bella vision, her rights activists alice bell yard ski has been the leader of the countries democracy movement. for decades. he shares the award with russia's organization memorial, which has a campaign against human rights violations, was closed down last year. ukraine center for civil liberty, civil liberties also shares this year's award. it was founded to promote democracy in ukraine and has recently worked document russian war crimes did over w correspondence commonly joins us now from keith and on the line from bon is our russia analyst, a roman gunshot rankel at nick. the only individual who was awarded is human rights

advocate alice bell yard ski, who is in a bella rouge prison at the moment. what more can you tell us about him? alice vilicki is someone who's biography is crucial to kind of look at if you're trying to understand montebello versus someone who started being dissident, get so system back in the eighty's as a student system has been in and out of jail, frequently documenting what the bell russian regime does what it does, jealous what it does to order a citizen, took out and protest, basically, collecting all the information about arrests, how those arrested justified helping people to get a sense of what's going on, helping families to even relocate to their loved ones, what they're arrested that often enough is a problem in itself, not that organization came into its own during those 2020 protests when you saw hundreds of thousands people coming out on the streets of mince. and you know, lots people detained for long periods of time, often with no justification and no information passed on to their loved ones. and

he himself did eventually fall victim to the crack down that followed off those purchase. in 2021. he was jailed and been in jail ever since. this is not the 1st major price for him. most recently got the suffer of prize and has been awarded various awards band prizes by diverse organizations. but certainly this is a signal to him, a signal to bill russian civil society that the outside world. so paying attention . now roman, what is this a russian organization? memorial and why do they deserve the price? memorial is the number one human rights organization in russia was founded in the eighty's and co founded by the a low price. we're not under a satellite, a main focus is on analyzing and studying the crimes of the starving regime in the soviet union. so in the thirty's forty's and fifty's were tens of thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands are still good citizens were kidnapped by the secret service, and many of them died in camps. and this is actually

a symbol. this organization has a symbol or perestroika that will sort of dresden me. he'll go to the club, which i've cited liberalization in the soviet union and in russia. and this is something which president led him important gotten president. russia tried to suppress and try to make russians or get all that time. so it's also a sign for him. also, disorganization is trying to help those who are under pressure in russia today, go to the streets and protests, for example, against the russian war in ukraine. so i was also helping them and that's why of the reasons it was shut down in the end of last year because booting was preparing for this war and he didn't need such a human rights organization in his country. and they tell us more about the 3rd recipe and the ukrainian human rights organizations center for civil liberties. was interesting because they are a lot less prominent than the other 2. laura,

i guess we're having a bit of a technical problem there with a line from a key. if, why don't i go back to roman then roman r for poor teen. this prize comes out at a bit of a delicate moment. it says birth day to day, not the birthday present, that he would lie post soon. well, we can speculate that it might be one of the reasons, but of course not the may 1 that the organization memorial we've just been talking about and has been nominated for many years. so it is not, it's not an unexpected decision. it has been a long for, for it by many in russia, the former soviet union, because it is such a renown organization known very well. not just in russia about a broad as well. and of course it is, it is, it is kind of a slap for us as president vladimir putin because this organization is starting the

crimes of the styling era. the most darkest hours of the saw days and years of the soviet history and reporting at doors styling his government, his, he says, the whole policy of his rule, 20 years more than 20 years in russia, has been aimed at and portraying starling as, as a great statesman and memorial was just the opposite memorial is telling the russians that starting was bad, that he was, he was a dictator and he killed many, many russians, not just russians. and trying to bring that memory back to the russians to say, which is very difficult. it is something that most russians referred to, forget to forget about those crimes that were committed in the soviet union in the suits. and the thought is why memorial is so important. and this is what, once again, bring that and in the zation to the public,

that the question is whether many russians will know about it. and again, i will try to blacken this this at this day and say that it is a political decision and will just be silent when it did happen. the threat analyst roman, gone to rank her aunt, are corresponding near commonly in key. thank you. both u. s. president joe biden says the risk of nuclear armageddon is at its highest since the cuban missile crisis of the 19 sixty's by warned that russia lead of letting me put in is not joking when he talks about using nuclear weapons following heavy losses on the battlefield in ukraine, meanwhile, ukrainian authorities say the death toll from russia's missile attack on the southern city of the procedure as risen to 11. the strike destroyed an apartment building on thursday and came as a russian forces lost more ground to ukraine's counter offensive in the country

lead us in our, in prague debating measures to tackle europe's energy crisis with a possible cap on gas prices on the table. tensions remain over how best to deal with a soaring cost of energy or increasing calls for a unified you response. and they come after germany announced details of a massive domestic energy. 8 packers member states need to stop our bidding each other. we need to stop the price. speculation. we have done this before during the covert, pandemic when we came together and found common solutions. no differences were made between countries. no matter their size. i think we can do it. we should be able to do it. that's what citizens want from us. certainly the to who energy will dominate the discomfort. we have to decrease the prices of energy, but it is an economic issue as much as our security issue. as his brother

said, bring down soaring energy prices as on top of the agenda for you leaders in proc and a little earlier i spoke to w's, brussels bureau chief alexandro phenomena as asking her why germany has drawn such criticism for analysing its own plan to tackle high energy prices, while it is because germany has been blockading some far reaching measures on the level to tackle the energy a crisis. for instance, the majority of e u. member states would like to introduce our cap on price cap on gas imports, and germany was very skeptical saying that that would distort their markets. at the same time, the german government has introduce its own massive aid package for german companies and consumers to 100 to 1000000000 euros. and many here are saying, well, how can it be a, we are not such

a large economy like germany. we don't have that kind of money to support our companies and a polish prime minister nor have he had ski criticized germany for not showing in our facility doroty with other nations. some fear that the measures introduced by germany could have her negative consequences on their level playing field. so that is the reason why germany is facing a lot of criticism here. however, the german chancellor doesn't seem to be impressed by that alexandra, the war ukraine, of course, on the agenda there as well. very concrete appeal by the use of foreign policy achieve their asking leaders for more military support to ukraine. what was the reaction briefly if you can? well, we have seen some statements stressing that it's important to separate ukraine as long as it takes to win the war,

but well is calling for money for the european piece facility. this is a funding that reimburse reimburse earth member states when they provide weapons for ukraine. n a d e u has provided. so turner, half a 1000000000 euros worse of weapons, but this funding is now running out the out. so braille is calling for more money. our brussels burgess, like some of phenomena. they're reporting from prague. thank you. alex, on i, we're going to thailand. the nation is in morning to day after a mass shooting at a childcare center in the north of the country. north east rather left at least 36 people dead. the former policeman stormed the building on thursday. later killed his family and then himself, thailand's king, as to visit survivors, as flags across the country, fly of half mast a stream of coffins arrive at the morgue.

after a day of unimaginable terror, it was here at a rural daycare center that an ex police man killed at least 36 people. more than 20 of them children. one teacher describe what she saw. he used his feet to kick the window and then he shot at the door. i thought he got inside, so i ran to the kitchen behind. i was in shock. i didn't know what to do. some family members remain at the scene as investigations into the massacre continue. local police said the shooter had appeared in court on drugs charges on the verde was jus. though so far,

no motive has been established. thailand's prime minister described it as a shocking attack. this definitely shouldn't happen. i feel deep sadness for the victims and relatives despite relatively high gun ownership. my shootings are rare and thailand but that's little consolation for the families of those killed and it's worse rampage by a single attacker. jealous jacob goldberg is intolerance. capital bank coke, jacob, the king and queen of thailand, asa about to visit the area as soon as that, more than just symbolic i can't weigh in on whether it's more than just symbolic. but i can say that the members of the privy council representatives of the, of the monarchy have already visited earlier in the day and pledge to support the victims and for the route and relatives of the victims and the survivors and to

sponsor their fuels. the king queen are scheduled to arrive there in a couple hours. there's been some criticism of the red carpet that was rolled out over the crime scene, and people are asking whether that was appropriate before a thorough investigation could be completed. the what practical health ortiz now providing to survive as a dependent so in addition to the support that the key in offered top officials have promised that the survivors in the families of the victims will be wont cared for. but we're still waiting for details about that, and there are also help mental health workers assigned to assist the relative to the victims. now we've heard the report that mosse shootings are read and thailand . even though is a debate necessary, does the nation need to have

a debate about guns? it seems like there is somewhat of a debate about guns happening. the attack has put a spotlight on a program that allows civil servants to get guns more easily than civilians. both yesterday, a shooter and an army soldier who killed 29. people in another mass shooting in 2020, both on the guns, legally their 10000000 gun estimated 10000000 guns in thailand. and there's a lot of gun homicide, though, really in the form of the mass shooting. and over the last few years when there has been a mass shooting, it's usually involved a member of the security forces, journalist, jacob, gulf back. thank you very much. and i have some more news for you in brief, the world health organization has issued an alert against using several cough and cold drugs. blame for fatal kidney damage. and his $66.00 children in gambia are

said to have died after ingesting one of them for indian made medicines, gambling authorities have banned the treatment and are going door to door to collect them. mostly shall. anchors top court has a lot of rights group to initiate legal action against the countries former leader, transparency international seeking proceedings against deposed president ergo, by roger pox. up over the country's worth financial crisis and decades, which spark on rest in the country. and roger puts us flight abroad a capsule carrying a russian cosmonaut hires docked with the international space station. the space ex, a dragon endurance carrying a crew. 5 took off from florida, the crew joined 7 others on both the ice. as 30 hours later, wildfires have scorched some of the action, stone statues on rop annuity,

otherwise known as the east. the islands authorities say around a 100 hector's of land have been raised by flame since monday potentially damaging several 100 of the giant carved stones, known as a more high east island in the pacific is more than 3000 kilometers from the western coast of chile, burning on one of the most remote inhabited islands on the planet displays trans to destroy a centuries old legacy, stone figures known as mo, i were carved by the indigenous rop annuity people some 500 years ago. but the uncontrollable blaze that has gone on for days is said to have done a repairable damage to the iconic statues. oh, the fire has swept through a vast area of land, some 60 hector's there around $1000.00 moy, on the island,

an estimated several 100. are in the fact it area one descendants of the ralph, i knew we had carved the stones when stolen on the island. they considered the statues to be sacred. archaeologists believe the mo i our representation of ancestors and may have played a role in rituals. the fire comes just 3 months after the island re open to tourists after a 2 year closure due to the pandemic, and soon that dollar series of to the pico logo, it's unesco status. as a world heritage site has brought over 160000 to us a year to the island, providing a livelihood to some 4000 residents. now, as damages are being assessed, the site is once again closed. and from on this, we're now john for lyndon pronto,

an expert in landscape fire management from the european forest institute, ireland. when you look at the fire damage to the statues, there are any starlit you think it was avoidable? of course, in principle, if it's human cause the fires can be affordable, but there will always be arson issues regardless of where in the world. so it's a matter of what can be done to prevent it in the 1st place of the human cost and how can we respond quickly and how can we make the site itself more resilient to fire? now what do you think east orland can do to protect the statues from far as like this one is going forward and looking forward to the future? well, we actually have quite a long history of, of, of fires occurring on this area or 25 wild far as just in a couple of years, some years back. so i think they're already taking measures for keeping the grass short the vegetation short around the areas to, to best protect them,

to have less available fuel. i think we can always do more measures. one can support, you know, there's always an outcry of, of not enough human resources to effectively manage that. many of the sites, not just this one so, so supporting the local agency on the ground as best we can. and also from the organizational standpoint of unesco and deal management that can be done to, like i said, really keep these areas safe from fire as possible because fire will occur again. now. wildfire threat and cultural treasure like this one. what additional problems does that cause for firefighters? well, depending on, on what site we have, i mean, this is the cultural site and we have natural science. we have mix sites. and depending on what type of site it is, and you can have different types of fire fighting measures,

but in the end obviously sensitive areas like this, you want to have a least aggressive approach in the actual containment options. which can of course cause some challenges. but it all in all, i think it's a matter of resources, of education, of preparing the sites. and i would like to say, i mean, i think that we have kind of a wet wetland area here. we have wind driven fire, we have very light fuel. so the temperature itself of the fire is relatively low. so i would like to think that as of now it looks worse than it is. and of course we'll have to wait for more damage assessment. now briefly, if you can, what steps should natural authorities be taking to identify and protect cultural treasures? well, we have a just under $800.00 cultural sites around the world. some of them are impacted by fires and we have some high tech approaches like temple complex and south korea or even wouldn't churches in norway where we have sprinkler camera sensor systems

installed in this and this context. we also have examples like patrick lives, hard gloves in australia, in the australian outback, which are frequently impacted by fires and looking at what management strategies they have in the end. i'm afraid i have to interrupt you and i'll be running out of time and i'll show thank you very much. linda bronze landscape fly management expert. that's what i think. and that's it from me and the news to him up next to the point, looking at the protests in iraq, i've got office in berlin from me and the newest team, thanks for watching with
