on the news world wide in search of a better life. so why do i want to go back to nyja like, i don't have any reason to why this isn't this moving for me to leave something really common very, very soon will result least story in for my reliable news from my friends, wherever they may be. ah ah ah ah ah, this is focus on europe. i'm labriola glad you could join us. britain is gearing up for the coronation of king charles, who became monarch last year upon the death of his mother, queen elizabeth the 2nd. it's an occasion charles has been preparing for his whole life, and the stakes are high both for the king and his wife camilla. a series of scandals

and public quarrels have placed the royal family under intense scrutiny. now the king is under pressure to preserve the future of the monarchy and the united kingdom. well, this crown is the centerpiece of the coronation and a symbol of the monarchy. it's made from solid gold and is set with hundreds of precious stones and pearls, dazzling to some, but to others. it's a spectacle. they would rather not witness. british republicans, including ben clinton, want to abolish the monarchy altogether. unthinkable for supporters of the royal family who are in the planning stages of their own coronation parties. for them, it's a chance to witness history. and the 1st such ceremony in 70 years marching into a new era, the coronation of king charles, the festivities are of plenty and not just in front of buckingham palace,

all over the country. the crown subjects are preparing for their new king boy valley road and maidenhead. a small town in the south of the u. k is no exception. the queen was a wonderful roman. i think charles bloom will be a good as well. yeah. do whatever you think in honor of the big day, the residents are closing off the whole street. the party committee has their work cut out. ah, it's bank, it's a big celebration i we're looking forward to it. but not all britons are so enthusiastic. republicans, ben clinton and david mcalpine, our up in ours. a change is long overdue. they say why should we not have the chance to vote for and had of sight? why should we have to pop a family has been on elected. and no one can aspire to be had to stay in this

country. no young person can look up and think how about student on auto and make that goal. and i want to make caught go to improve people's lives. it goes against every democratic norm and not only that, the monarchy is expensive, republicans argue, and investigation by a british newspaper, estimated the king's personal fortune at nearly $2000000000.00 pounds. partly reasonable at a time when some britons can barely feed their families, they say my lords, pregnancy fee, this enormous privilege and honor and well, some position. i think the term, the generally it reinforces the whole class system. you know, it's like the a of class in this country, which is a severe issue. and so no one can really get to the tall charles, the 3rd, unlike his late mother, his drawing protests at his public appearances. but despite the od egg flying his

way, he seems unfazed by the negative attention walking nonchalantly past demonstrations, like this one in the north of england. the slogan, not my king. younger britons in particular are increasingly skeptical of the royals, according to polls. with hundreds, guy ready, bodies. coronation protests were hoping to grow by, you know, putting ally on some of the, you know, very unjust things. and we'll finally been doing in, well that i'll see decades not just the last year. i think this was a really great opportunity for us to, you know, so our message should allowed. but back in boeing valley road, the republicans message goes unheard. the children color in the kings carriage and other royal motifs. while the adults prepare for the festivities, i replied, i don't want to serve with afternoon tea,

where to place the union jacks. the party planters agree 74 year old. charles is the ideal head of state the on the some of the problems with the country house on the under some of the strand, the country house, because fits is always had him on the case a, his j. it says a part of the structure that of united kentucky not to have it, i think would be quite detrimental for the country. it might turn shock wise. you're on to, well, don't think, you know, if he gets death done and the monkey don't. charles camilla and the royal family are still popular in britain, drawing much admiration for their royal splendor. they will continue to represent the country internationally at least for the time being because young britons are becoming increasingly uncomfortable with the traditions, the centuries old form of government and the monarchy

it's crop planting. season for farmers and telling machines are digging up the fields in order to prepare the soil. but in ukraine, one of the world's top grain producers, air rating. the earth comes with great risk or less german fears for his life. when he sets foot on his fields, fighting is ongoing and ukraine's eastern frond, though in the region of hark eve, ukrainian troops were able to push back russian forces and hold on to territory. but the war and destruction has turned many fields there into death traps for ukraine's farmers. ah, now that spring has arrived. go look here man should be telling his fields. but he can't. russian forces may have withdrawn from the harkey written, but they left explosive souvenirs behind for the ukrainian farmers. we'll have a question for you about the russian position was over there on the mind.

everything in front of it. okay. if i got cut off my, these are my fields, well, who knows what's lying there? more look of the honda with to plow this soil and planted with heavy seed drills would be downright suicidal for alexia mon, i mean for them to me that looks like an anti tank mine. when i was told it was lying close by and probably rigged up with some kind of trap for you. after the heavy fighting that took place in the heart of eve region, the countryside is regarded as 100 percent contaminated with mines and unexploded devices. and they're not hard to find. this is one end of a russian smith missile. it contains the thruster. no one knows what else might be buried here. like him and sees his entire livelihood threatened before the war broke out. he had 30 employees since then. he says he's lost half a 1000000 euros. he's one of thousands of farmers suffering the same

fate in ukraine, once known as europe spread, basket hold. it's very painful. wooden, so as what i've heard from other farmers. what if we oh oh, big some farms had been completely destroyed. now ukraine has thought to have the highest density of land mines of any country on earth, national and international organizations like britons, halo trust are on site trying to clear and diffuse the minds on the personal minds with pressure blades on the personal mind. bonding fragmentation ah mines grenades on trip wires, and we are find in all sorts of a cluster munition used any grain on the vehicle lines in plastic and metal cases.

experts say that 30 to 40 percent of ukraine's entire surface area will have to be swept before being open to the public. we have people that are not being able to walk on their own land, on their own yards, co for picnic or walk freely. because of the mines, in the other hand, they can't cultivate their land. and which is like the most cases, the 1st, the source of income for the family. although scenarios can be infer structure areas that are again contaminated just in ukraine. we are seeing the, the number of accidents increasing, but many farmers have to take the chance in order to survive in some regions, they are risking their very lives by tilling miss oil. so the super shrapnel here here and here will deliver the like, it'll take

a long time to get it all out. yes ma'am. it's like a gaping wound. not many metal splinters, mostly plastic and rubber. arena. now it's bearable. it's not a mile. but the 1st day, it was no fun at all who you are. he drove over a land mine with his tractor. he's lucky to be alive. but he won't give up. even if he has to clear the minds himself. he shows us some military equipment. he found in the field, they offered me a better with the way i see it. i'm not the 1st no poker, and i won't be the last in ukraine to get blown up to utilize all it here. man is also considering clearing his fields himself, to save his farm yard losers for you was sure none the for more if they don't help hon. and when the 2nd year comes around the newton,

the more records who, when people can't work and they don't get help, removing some leave and won't come back. all we're, so we're little be very hard to restore all this. so if we don't do it now, those of law school lecture elizabeth is out of he is worried that this growing season will make or break the future for him and his farm. sweden is well known for its position as a politically neutral state, but russia's invasion of ukraine has led to some swedes. questioning this longstanding policy. now the northern europeans are breaking with the status quo and are seeking protection from nato. the defense alliance of european and north american nations. sweden is keen to be admitted into the alliance as soon as possible, due to its close proximity to russia. stockholm has just expelled

a several russian diplomats for allegedly threatening state security as relations between the 2 nations sour. well for young soldiers like philip up the war and ukraine has changed everything. and military training exercises have taken on a new found urgency and importance. didn't follow that voluntary about a 100 meters from here, who knew aim for that area and moved that the enemy line is somewhere in this forest. intelligence has reached realty, and her group enemy forces are close by. we've been given permission to accompany the swedish military unit on an exercise, but are asked to avoid using last names. the 20 year old conscripts signed for military service before russia's invasion of ukraine. the war changed everything for the young soldier. we also did it the one initially the military service was more something that was just fine. it was getting to the sports of meet new people

because if we came in there, but for myself and many others, it's much more real now. and as of the situation out there is heating up in the mit is valeca game of oliver. an enemy unit has been spotted in the woodlands, north and stop home. the unit trains with blinks. but what happens when the rounds or live instead? the worn ukraine is on all the conscripts. mine's lisa tick yet my because i'm feel better talking about it may not unlike but there are others who don't talk about it at all because they can't deal with it. you'll be more fish. i don't think about it any more. that's what keeps me functioning what it really scares me, but it's funny. let's get here again. so i'm there with war having become a reality in europe once more sweden is preparing for the worst case scenario. unlike neighbor finland, they had suspended the military draft here for several years. now there are proposals to double the number of conscripts. tanks rolled on to the baltic island

of god than last year. usually a favorite among swedish vacationers. the ones demilitarize island is now hosting forces once again strategic positions in the baltic, sea region, mich, sweden and finland, especially interesting for nato, says finish security expert, men, ollander, exams, and that's it. i've alvarado finish in swedish succession means what we call the correlation of forces is changing in the region on data, on an lisa changing in favor of nato. who was that done? and previously russia had something of a free pass to disrupt the nordic and baltic countries. that well, to apply pressure on them like that was it was own that hooked, that sweden has long prided itself or not officially taking part in any military alliance during the cold war. prime minister, olaf palmer champion, peace and understanding, and shape the image of sweden as a respected moral authority. palmer's former comrades in arms can no

longer believe their eyes. a majority in the country now supports nato membership. you're on greater editor in chief of the social democratic newspaper adela democrat, and believes that the application to join was a mistake your to other than it though the world needs states that do not belong to any military blocker. no. because what we're seeing in the west, if you, for this enormous arms build up growth thing, the war there not go on for 50 years, he gave him through. at some point, it must come to an end put at the will, the, when that happens, we need not align states like what sweden used to be. you over the, in the back in the forest, the soldiers prepare for the next skirmish, philippa and her unit catch their breath. joining naida would offer sweden support from the alliance, but what the soldiers here know is they must offend others and return monday

without his that of course we would prefer not to worry about this, but i do, and it weighs on me, because you'll be that the think that the hope that the good the summer philippa will have completed her basic training after which she will leave the military. the decision she says was made independently of the war and ukraine. many brides want to stand out on their wedding day, but a look such as this is truly unique in europe. the right to do or a is taking part in a centuries old tradition. she belongs to the muslim minority of the pa, max, the ethnic minority have managed to preserve their culture despite the period of oppression during bulgarian communist regime. our reporter attended the wedding and about the areas southern rideau p mountains. there in the secluded village of red novo, he witnessed a celebration like no other. ah,
