detained for taking part in anti war rallies. the explosive device was reportedly hidden inside of a present given to of la than to tar ski. russians say media say 32 people were wounded in the blast. this is the blogger flatland to tire ski. real name maxime full mean. filming himself last year at the grand kremlin palace, he had been invited there to celebrate rogers annexation of ukraine's occupied regions. this defiant tirade moses went viral. we will beat every one. he said, we will kill every one. we will rob every one who needs to be robbed. everything will be the way we love him. while these kinds of videos made him wildly popular among pro war russian nationalists walker. and now, as these scenes suggest, a target to tar ascii was killed after a blast at this restaurant. he had been hosting an event,

their meeting supporters and subscribers to his telegram channel. local media reports the tourist. he had been presented with a figurine just minutes before the blast. and that the figurine was the source of the explosion. after this figuring ahead of a minor and a helmet, they put a summer back though without a 2nd thought and he carried on with his questions. then suddenly everything exploded and there was smoke. it was like a slow motion movie. it was sit on the back half of the whole, everyone started to run and we needed to ron. so we ran those from a near had blood all over them of course. but you can use it. oh, i don't re adding further to the fog of uncertainty. the venue itself has close links to wagner mercenary group bossy of guinea pig gozine. russia's state investigative committee has opened a murder investigation. it's a reminder of the unpredictable consequences of the war which to tar sky cheered so

fervently. germany's vice chancellor robert hobbit has arrived in the ukrainian capital key on an unannounced visit. habash who is also germany. economy minister is being accompanied by business leaders for talks expected to focus on rebuilding the war torn country. it is his 1st trip to ukraine since russia launched its invasion last year. he says the visit is intended to give hope to ukrainians and underscore berlin's solidarity with keith. now finland center, right. national coalition party has won the nordic countries parliamentary elections, incumbent prime minister, santa marine conceded defeat with hert social democrats. coming in 3rd. the far right leader fins party was in 2nd place. now, winning national coalition party leader had terry or po, now faces the challenge of forming a new governing coalition. oh, she it will,

her party even in defeat. simon marvin, finland's youngest of a prime minister, bows out after a narrow loss in the general election. b, i guess i'm not for very, very long time has a prime minister's party managed to increase its support in the number of seats. this is a brilliant achievement, although he did not come 1st to day. at just 37 marinez finland's most popular prime minister of the century. but she struggled to convert her personal approval ratings into votes for social democratic party. rising public debt and the cost of living crisis, resulting from russia's invasion of ukraine as wait heavily on the government. oh, well they come in finland is quite the bad that the moment them we need to find a way to get it better. i think that we should not build this society based on taking more depth the conservative national coalition party and his lead up

a terry or po, successfully capitalized on these concerns coming 1st in the polls, we are clear alternative to look to the left being government and people are very worried about our economy and we had be heart good program. how to boost our economy. what kind of reform speed we are going to do and this was our message b. we'll fix our country the far right. the friends party under the leader rica pura came 2nd with an anti immigration and you were a skeptic program, relegating the social democrats to 3rd place. the whole former said he's open to forming a governing coalition with either of his major opponents. tough negotiations, lawyer, head asana, marine lost the election despite most fans. being happy with her leadership, i asked michel potent n political analyst from temporary university. why marines, popularity didn't save her party. thank you for allowing me to

speak about the recent finish elections. and the reason why some of them are in a loss is that the, the 2 crises, the major price is the grown up pandemic. and then the russian invasion of ukraine pivoted the finish political space into talking more about economy done previously . we've always had this undertone of being very frugal, caretakers of our economy. and obviously because of these 2 crises, extraneous to the current government, got a modem that grew considerably still in comparison field. and in the middle in the u. like not in prices more really per se on it showed how strongly electric resonated with the idea that now we have focus on the economy. and so now you have

finland's conservative leader set to become prime minister. tell us a little bit more about him. has been the leader of the national coalition or the last 4 or 5 years in fact. and he is probably could, he's perhaps not as conservative as the party pro. i would suggest he tends to have a pro european attitudes and other socially liberal as well. but the party as a whole is perhaps conservative and such a good fit may be for the party in terms of values. but they are not. it's not an impossible match for the social democrats and the national coalition to find common ground to form a government together, but they will still need a 3rd party to complete a majority government. so any sort of government coalition in finland under the

current constellation of parties always tends to need a 3rd. so there is moderation and a lot of compromises and a lot of detail making that goes into creating a finnish coalition government. i'd like to ask you, let's turn to the international level now because finland shares a border with russia. it is set to join nieto as early as next week. what impact will these elections have on finland's foreign policy? well, as i said to be because of the compromising and even if it's part of which is your skeptic, if they are the government party with the national coalition, the national coalition does have a positive outlook towards european union. so i wouldn't think that there is a huge shift in finish or policy. the nato application was done in, in

a common effort. nato application is probably one of the largest and most significant changes of popular opinion and finish history in such a short time. and otherwise it is to be expected that there are not huge changes in finish foreign policy, at least not immediately. thank you so much for that analysis, political analyst, me cope latan and joining us. we appreciate it. thank you very much and cherish mother stories making news around the world. horizons have voted overwhelmingly to ban rental electric scooters in the french capital in a referendum, while 89 percent of voters back to the ban on the app activated machines turn out was less than 8 percent. officials have promised to comply with the vote making paris the 1st major european capital to ban the self service scooters. canyon opposition leader ry la o'denza has called off planned anti government demonstrations. after 2 weeks of chaotic protests. odenza said that his party would

will it be enough? a major war crimes trial related to kosovo, struggle for independence from serbia in the late 19 ninety's gets underway in the hague to day. former coastal president hush and tachi and 3 others are accused of murder and torture, in connection with their roles and the kosovo liberation army and the k. l. a is crackdown on opponents. although victims families have been waiting for justice for more than 2 decades. the trial with over 300 witnesses is unlikely to deliver any quick verdicts. ah, she thought she is the rebel who became president only for his past to catch up with him at the height of his powers indicted for war crimes. by the course of all special court solace fund. i put them in order to protect the integrity of the presidency of republic of kosovo. i resigned to day from the position of president

there some additional evidence as they call it, that will help the prosecutor and a judge to convict them quiet chair or the palm of and so that kinds of this kind are not repeated i her or so there thus saith the vicious watching if they were sent upon avenue, the wait for justice will be long. the trial expected to last months, if not years. and for more on that story that's bringing correspondence. lithia shelton who is in the hag following the trial. so tell us a little bit more about what prosecutors accused the former kosovo and present up. yes, the allegations go back to the end of the 19 ninety's when a casa will was seeking independence from serbia and eventually got it back then. and the insurgency, the kosovo liberation army,

victims council and then only tomorrow the 40 friends in their teams will have time to to make their case. what has been the reaction to this trial in kosovo? because i mean we, we seen that his, he's been a popular politician. yeah. so as you've mentioned, when he ran you was indicted when he was put into the attention he was himself still the president. so back then and already now you could have seen billboards where of support for, for her to be touchy. and also yesterday there have been protests us out on the street showing support to him who's considered for some a war hero. and even here in the hague, there are people that are showing his support to him. how long is the trial expected to last? yet the trial is supposed to last quite long. this is also because let alone the prosecution has said that they will call upon 312 victims,

which will take at least 2 years. this is without the defendants having already named any of of their witnesses. so this trial they'll take a long time. thank you so much for your recording. dw lucio shelton joining us from the hague. where as we mentioned, former kosovo president hush im touchy facing charges of war crimes. ah, some sports news for you now and in formula when defending champion mac for stoppin of red bull, one aka arctic australian grand prix crashes gl laura caused havoc, but the dutch standings leader was able to keep his cool to win his 2nd race the season. ah, a bit of australian culture before the race got started in once he did red bulls max fish up and got overtaken by mercedes, george russell in russell's teammate. louis hamilton got past finished up and in the 1st lap of the race right before the 1st crash for ari shawl. a clerk,
