of questions about life, the universe and the rest were series 40 to be answered almost every thing this week on t w. the state of the news line from berlin. a new york jury finds donald trump liable for sexual assaults. but the former us president is found not guilty of raping columnist aging carol is ordered to pay $5000000.00 in damages. also coming out, russia celebrates victory over nothing, jeremy 78 years ago,

but commemorations and moscow's red square scaled back and close to the public as russia's war of aggression against ukraine continued. and former pocket, sony prime minister and run con, is arrested con, was taken into custody as he appeared in port to face charges of corruption. his party is calling, it's an abduction. and for us to is really air strikes in the gaza strip. is really defense for us to say and hate a group of militants in a car. this offer funerals for palestinians who were killed in earlier strikes the nicole fairly to all of you. joining us on p. b. s. in the united states and our viewers all around the world, it's good to have you with us. there is in the civil lawsuit against donald trump, have found the former us present and not guilty of raping magazine calling this

aging carol. the jury in manhattan has however, found him liable for sexual abuse and defamation and award of carol $5000000.00 us dollars, and compensatory and punitive damages. the jurors reach their verdict after just a few hours of deliberations from called the verdict. this great was accused of raping harrell and the luxury manhattan department store in the 1990 w correspondent. i mean as of has followed the trial high. i mean break this very big down for as what has the jury found from guilty for and whatnot. well, he's been found liable for sexual assault and for defamation, this goes back to the mid ninety's. when easing carol said she was raped by him. and when women's dressing room in a department store in manhattan, which he furiously denied. but what they found him not liable for is raped. now

this is interesting because the evidence was the same on both accounts. it was just her testimony and that of 2 friends who said that she called after the legend incident in an emotional state and told them about what had allegedly happened. but now the jury has decided that she proved beyond a preponderance with the preponderance of evidence that sexual assault occurred, but that a rape did not. but he will have to pay $5000000.00 in damages for sexual assault. and for defamation, after he denied it, saying that it was a hoax after she went public with it. of course he's still kind of appeal. so the $5000000.00 isn't her in her bank account just yet. he can appeal, he has already called it a disgrace. what else have we heard from trump? since we we learned of the verdict as well? even just minutes before the verdict came out, the trump posted on truth, social,

which is his personal social media. he said that he would appeal no matter what the verdict was, and he, he denied the allegations once again, after the verdict came out. his 1st statement has been that he has no idea who this woman is. this was his basic defense the whole time that he doesn't even know this woman calling the whole thing holds, which is obviously not true because he's been in photos with her, which was presented as evidence in court. and he also said that it's continuation of one of the greatest which tons of all time his campaign came out and said that this was in a district in new york city that's owned by democrats. and that this is an example of extreme left wing politics. getting involved in the legal system here. so once again, furiously denying its making the same claims that he was just found guilty of defamation . for me, does this verdict of any implications for trumps ambitions to run for president again, next year of the?

well, this is a big question. what is the worst case scenario for trunk? here, of course, he knew that his reputation was on the line. he didn't even show up in court. he didn't seem to be taking this trial very seriously. but now that the what he's been found liable of sexual assault, he does seem furious. i think one way you can look at this is that his very hard core supporters are going to see this as a witch hunt. they're going to see him as being politically persecuted here, but part of his lawyer has always been that she could escape charges like this. this is really the 1st time that he's been who held liable in front of a jury for sexual assault. and so this might take away from that alert. one thing that's been interesting is a very long shot republican candidate who would be challenging and in their public primaries made a statement. after that, the jury came to his conclusions here and said that you need to know how to talk to a jury and that if you attack a jury, this can really backfire. so framing him as

a loser and the situation which is trump worst fear. mm. meeting, carol's lawyer said that she wanted to prove that nobody, including a former president, is above the law. i think this mission was accomplished, dw, i mean, as of thank you. or russia has been marking the $78.00 that a verse ray of its victory over nazi germany and world war 2 known as victory de, those seniors commemorations come at a time when russia is deeply entrenched in its invasion. a few crank an apparent drone attack on the kremlin last week, it was only added to the nervousness. the victory day in moscow is always a full on display of choreography, pageantry and prowess. but this see a more than others. vladimir putin wants it to act as a national coal to arms, as he again raged against the west,

claiming that russia was the victim. see what could save it, is that the civilization is once again at a decisive turning point. what a difference a real war has been on least against our motherland to issue a not that we have rebuffed international terrorism, and we did ideas and we will protect the residents of the dunbar sensor and we will ensure our security of that. but apparently this is the scaled back version and efforts to manage heightened security concerns. i made a number of attacks on russian soil. putin appeals to the patriotism of his soldiers fighting in ukraine. some of them watching on by was usual since he was already of our country, rests on you today. that'd be the future of our statehood. and our people depend on you. we, you are filling your military duty with honor. you are fighting for russia. so that's right. this is what i see, but the nice,

the veneer of grand you rushes bungled invasion of ukraine has left many wondering if parades like this are a weapons fest. papering over the cracks in its forces for his part seemed please, and ended with a rallying cold. said i, so russia, i'm not sure for our valiant armed forces you for victory. variety of those. who do i typically use former must come here achieve yury. rosetta was covering the developments from rica as dw is banned from reporting and russia. and i asked him what he made of this year's victory parade. and weatherford and speech offered any surprises or no as last year, putting those ready to cuz the paternity to blame the all of us for the void ukraine. that's precisely what russian states propaganda has been constantly doing . things of his thoughts over the war applicant has tried to legitimize the voices

that options fight against the neo nazis. just as the soviet union, the gate against nazi germany involved went to appleton, claimed, exactly the opposite of what happened in february 2022. he spoke of the alleged crimes of the neil knocked us around to the village who just wanted to go as a collapse of russia. so all in all she said, is it. russians was nothing but freedom of peace and so called conditional values. but the not is too old like going to destroyed. and ultimately russia has to defend itself into the gold, especially the people of dunbar. that was the kremlin, started to you as at its finest, will be called your correspondent in moscow for us, for 7 years. you report it directly from the red square on victory day. what was different about the parade this year? well, good. just a few days. a goal is the kremlin was attacked by 2 drones. and however, russian no storage has begun to cancel the may 9th rates across the roster,

even before the incident in descent of moscow explaining this. yeah. and on other things to buy security reasons, even though it was about right on the red square to place it didn't go as planned as it. but right, it was housed with less participants and less military equipment. a total of $8000.00 people march through ex career, 2000 less than had been reported to the plant. all of these 3 tanks, all of them made in the 9th 19 fifties, drove on red square last year as of what debated to tanks among which uh that was 3 types of very modern fighting vehicles. um, as it is, there are speculations in the media as that all the other things may be on the front lines and ukraine also. no one military plan flew on the red square despite as a very sunny day with a clear blue sky over the russian capital. and now this is a hugely symbolic day and all of fresh that's an important day for ordinary people there as well. how are families celebrating this day after a year of russia's war against ukraine?

the millions of russians, samuel, is still the man, but they stand, you call, especially elderly people, for whom venus is a very emotional day. they have to remember those may, 9th, 1945. so people and also send messages congratulate each other and bring solace to the woman morales. they may just add on. so one is interesting, i about that he is a bold to construct his day has a completely different and meaningful people he unlocked it, for example, is a stock of what do they call this? i'll give the corporation 45. he has locked valve thing in the story of what parts of the soviet union off the voltages. so today he and rig i haven't seen a single sign of celebration on the streets. probably not least because of the last soviet 12 memorial here was demolished last year and was all sort of just doing everything they can to remove all sides of so beautiful compassion which they associated especially now with when you create your shadow and read, i thank you so much well as russia celebrates and military victory from the

previous century, with not much to show and its current division of ukraine, the u. s. has pledged more a to keep more about this most recent package i spoke with stefan simons in washington, dc. it's, well, it is uh, it brings us a, delivered to the ukraine military, h 237000000000.6.6 dollars. so $37.00 or $38000000000.00 the rest of the spanish military aid to ukraine. this last latest package is worth 1200000000 dollars, and it is delivering long term needs meaning ammunition for most and let me quote there, it is specifically to bolts for quote, air defense capabilities and going on with the quote sustained is ukraine's. a tillery needs for the future, meaning that if you're afraid of getting more, u. s. m. o, that means miss aust that weeds drone ammunition, this means $155.00 millimeter artillery shells also and so on. that is, again,

not in the context of what many believe is a good chance that for account or forensics of the ukranian troops against russia and ukraine at the moment. this is a long term meaning for what they will need. maybe in 1234, or 5 months now or 7, the western arms are ready provided to ukraine seem to be proving highly effective in sending off russian attacks are nato countries may be also getting valuable information themselves about russia's true military capabilities out of its support for you pray its yeah, i think this is fair to assume and uh, the motor experts, the w r. a network and me and other colleagues have talked to, they all affirming this is of course, all what nato countries, nato partners, the us, but also germany, uh, uh, the brands, uh and in france is that truck what they deliver to poland and other uh,

in nato. countries delivered to ukraine, all of this military delivery and use deliver is also in the success of the ukrainians battling and fighting the russians and holding them back or counter offensive with, with counter offenses that deliveries are great in telling great in south inside for all of those countries who contribute to help the ukraine to send their fight and battle against russia. and of course, you know, there's also a fair share of intelligence, military intelligence sharing, going on between those partners between the u. s. between other nato partners and between the ukraine as the delivery of respondents stefan simons in washington thinks pockets on the former prime minister and run con, has been arrested at the high court in the capital. as long about con was in court to face corruption charges, which he denies. his attainment marks a dramatic escalation of political pensions and the country protests have broken out and several cities across the country, including atlanta,

about karachi and cons. hometown lahore, a police van burns in karachi, marking the end of a violent de dot through pockets done into turmoil. it was these pictures that sparked outrage showing the moment pakistan's former prime minister in run con, was drag from court in his lot of bad and show up into this black pick up kind of had appeared to face corruption charges on tuesday when power military, law enforcement troops from the pockets done rangers forced their way into the courtroom. on top volume that the rangers went in, they broke the windows. they hit mister connell, the head was a baton. but she share folder mister con, started bleeding up. on top of all the guards present were also beaten when grandma died, all the lawyers were sprayed in the face which caused them to pass out and fall to the floor. and they drag mr. kon. from there. you know,

the targeted but not just to be on the record. our pocket stones interior minister said cons arrest was related to a different legal case and that he had ignored an arrest warrant to turn himself in . the former prime minister is facing dozens of charges of corruption. he was ousted from power last year following a no confidence vote, but remains the leading opposition figure con and many of his supporters, cb hosting as part of a broader conspiracy by the military. you know, it's a, it's a version on democracy. basically, you know, the 1st day of our student from power, then they stopped in from company ending around the country. then they finally try to assassinated twice and now they're arrested him. so the process was very clear that they just wouldn't. we didn't want him on time, out and about against the backdrop of a severe economic crisis kind remains influential across the country. people turned

out and forced to protest his arrest. if convicted him run time by far, the most popular opposition politician will likely be prevented from running in the upcoming election is in november new is really air strikes on the gaza strip. has killed at least 2 people because the health ministry said 2 men were in a vehicle in the city of con eunice when it was struck. israel's militaries at the strike targeted and as long as he had cell that was planning an attack on israel. the latest strength came as funerals were held for 3 senior commanders of these mountains. you had militant group in garza and killed along with at least 10 civilians in the series of pre dawn. error rates is there, else military said it's air strikes, targeted islamic jihad, which had been designated a terrorist organization by the u. n. r. corresponding

rebecca rivers is in jerusalem with the latest rebecca islamic jihad and her mazda a voucher respond. what do we know about? israel's reaction to this is really is very much gracing for a response. we so benjamin netanyahu, the prime minister and defense me to see you of the law and come out this evening as saying that they were preparing on all fronts for a response that the whatever response came will be met with crushing force with the words they use they said also that they are prepared for responses that will come not only potentially from the gaza strip, but also and other friends. and that, that, of course, is these retaliations will be met with false. now these free don't attack. so the pre don't attack by is really into the guns. a strip that happened to nearly as of this morning did come as a surprise to people here. but it was carefully planned by the idea of them saying this week that it was in response to a barrels of rockets that came from the gaza strip. a week ago. this was

a carefully planned attack and they were even as they plan this attack. then preparing for retaliations. exactly. now, how that will look what that will look like raw, that remains to be seen. and of course, the big question of course is whether how nice will be be involved because that will escalate things. uh and, and then see a bigger than counter offensive from is ryan as well. what are you hearing from people inside casa? well, unfortunately. a this is not the 1st time people in gauze or i used to these kind of events, these kind of attacks happening and of course, the whole pricing to see what will happen, what retaliation will come from within gauze or. and then of course, the return from, from israel. so people there, we did say some collateral damage. some civilians were killed in the region one attacks this morning. so of course everyone pricing to say what will happen. and sadly, a lot of the people in gaza will be mostly affected. everybody bracing to see what

happens, is there any hope for de escalation at this point of the, of course, there is always a time for talks with the escalation and they will be the usual place as having these behind the scenes talks of you. and of course, definitely going to be talking to will relevant parties, but it's almost too early for these, the escalation talks and it almost seemed impossible unfathomable, really, that we weren't say retaliation and then council retaliation. so pulse of the escalation, certainly a will be on the agenda the call, but i think it is a little bit early for those to be happening at the moment at least successfully. the un security council has conveying a special meeting and emergency meeting tomorrow to discuss the new escalation here and goes are, but there is no resolution expected from that meeting tomorrow. and renters in jerusalem, thank you so much. i to turkish president ridge of type arrow and we'll

face off against the 3 other candidates on sunday in presidential and parliamentary elections. it's expected to be a tight race, but there is one group of voters who could prove decisive. and that is the under 25 d w. corresponding julia han took to the streets of assembled to find out what kind of governments young people are hoping for. meet talk. he's generations that the country has one of the youngest populations in europe. more than 10000000 people under 25 are eligible to vote in the upcoming elections. and many of them headed to the ballad, both for the very 1st time. young people vote will be crucial in the upcoming elections. they will effectively decide whether to extend the president ad one's route into a decade or to up for something they have never know. so he's under a different liter. so what do young boot is, what it was that you said to me now?

so i want to see a country that is more democratic as the head of what people live in prosperity and have more freedom in some of the homes, get ahold of you to take over a gotcha. can you tell me and given your gloves, i wanted to tell you what people are more tolerant for them and can accept each of the differences of it. even a couple of the believe it took place to got to come boss, and there was a huge number of people who really want things in this country to change. and this election might be the last chance is done with based post john sage. hope he tells me that most young voters are not bound by a particular ideology party affiliations. play less of a role for them than it did for the parents. the divided between the a physician and the government says, well, it's so start. it's so polarized that the young don't really like this. they don't really care about ideology, but they care more about the solutions to problems and problems on plenty food

at the end of ridge of telling you of ad. well, the 2nd time as president use, unemployment stands at nearly 20 percent. so ring inflation has driven off living costs produce that purchasing power is really decreased a lot. for example, i used to eat the restaurant over the, the price as well, okay? but now i can no longer afford it. i'm gonna move it been since you've given my money. you jumping to the ship industry children, but i still cannot pay for my health expenses. i struggle to make a living. she gets there and always by the state of things in turkey, very annoyed by their economy situation. derek, on their annoyed by the fact that their future prospects are, are waiting. polls also show the gens, that food has strongly oppose collab jones on lifestyle of democratic rights. and freedoms. thousands of social media uses

a being investigated for insulting president ad on a critical tweet. could lend you in prison in today's talking to and it didn't exist that we need to filter everything. we say you're saying you because it might be used against us. we put up, let us, unfortunately in our country, criticism of the government is being seen as insulting, would be that. i mean, they've each time case on the continuum shows give all the new york and it's on us will send me a digital have to double check what they write on social media. because they have to speak carefully. the awesome the. so that in a normal democracy's to the it should not be a problem to criticize the government's shrugs. all moments. i'm not trying to wait president ad one a 69 on the audio. look, his main challenger, opposition leader team are coached or who is 74 years old. they both rely on social media, but with distinctly different messages. president ad one

likes to emphasize his strong man image showcasing his achievements. to look at the old presents himself as a people's pose and a team play a. com and soft spoken with some has called the demo just demo for to your add on doesn't accept the fact that democracy has been very thing in turkey . and that the young people are universe of the situation, then they've already kind of unlikely, compared to 10 years ago on the other hands for the shuttle. the says, democratic area has been shrinking. and that the economy uh, problems in impact and use the most. so there's a fundamental difference in the way they look at the problems of the young. many young voters, one change. so 2 p tells me would also remain skeptical about the position and via

promise to make things better. adding to this votes unpredictability. only on an election day renew. if the generation that grew up under add one will be the one that sees him, the a. and she has a reminder of the top stories we're following for you today. jurors in the civil lawsuit against donald trump have found the former us president, not guilty of raping magazine columnist aging carol. the jury in manhattan has, however, found him liable for sexual abuse and defamation and awarded carol $5000000.00 us dollars in damages. prussia has marked its victory over nazi germany with a traditional military parade. on the red square president vladimir putin praise war veterans and present a soldiers finding his so called special military operation in ukraine. this here

is parade was close to the public, and other events were cancelled due to a lack of security concern. that's all for me for now, but stay with us because after a short break, i won't be back to take you through the day hope to see the

a nameless stead. hundreds of migrants of dying along greece as border with tucker of greek forensics. x but investigates because the victims no time to lose their lives, but also their identity to close out the 60 minutes dw, the

little guys, this is the 77 percent. the platform for advocacy issues and share ideas. you know, on this channel we are not afraid to pass and then it keeps popping. the young people clearly have the solution, the future of the 77 percent, every weekend on dw, when i heard the verdict, what i felt was deep sorrow for the state of the judiciary and the judges in my country. the turkish human rights activist osmond color has been in solitary confinement for over a year. charged with an attempted to. he was sentenced to life in prison. last month, kabbalah shouldn't be in,

but there are many prisoners who are detained or sentenced by means of arbitrary decision. last month, a voice from prison starts in may 12th on d, w. the to usually rush as victory day parade is a massive display of moscow as military might and impressing the crowns at home and intimidating. those abroad this here, the commemoration of the red armies, the feats of the nazis was a much more subdued affair. the fighter jets only one tank and even less soldiers for reading. then during pandemic times, the kremlin cited security concerns to justify the scale to.
