february. now, earlier in the day, so landscape was in germany where he received the prestigious charlemagne price for promoting your attain unity. you also have helped totes, with johnson level i've shown it's in the, the in germany announced a new package of military. i was more than 2700000000 euros to keep just the hit of savanski spit out the deputies brussels bureau chief alexandra phenomena fall at each other. 9 priced ceremony in the west end gym and city of atkin. and i asked earlier of what stood out well the ceremony here in often often or always takes place in a very festive and to the very a celebratory mood side to this time it was very special. people in the audience told me, they said that they were deeply moved to by president landscape speech. one woman told me that it's once again reminded her that the warning ukraine is not raging

far away. that that it is close to home and that to goes together with the main message of this event, the message that the ukrainians are fighting to survive the fighting, to protect, to defend their country. but the fight is also to defense, the values that the european union stand for freedom, peace, democracy values that lot the may have put in his intending to destroy as civil damage the landscape. put it. but let's have for a listen to what he has to say. here and often there all the conscientious leaders or the i'll do well, you never send out, you know, as a token of the closing trying you to as a, to control, to face, to tap, to flip the mold and contents to for it off. but consider will chose a dishonest because this is austin chose disaster. he's a low. is that or? no, she doesn't mean everyone understands. i mean, normally what we understand,

what can you say that she is, the district, the feeling of the child of a price does not represent an end point to this. i'll probably be getting on bucks . now you start all the new growing together and you're together with your train, with the west, west, and bulk and states mold over on georgia. i've been given the change in the turn of the times. our message is clear over europe state because she lost his time, united and together occupies the, showing the rain prize as a way to prize for your 3 citizens by means of the deep respect. all of our free society business is towards the bravery encourage of your family to have that 1st 10th of all up. so it's the end. so let's keep the for him. it's been quite the weekend for the cleaning and presidents. alexandra, collecting this on of the charlemagne prizes. no doubt something special. but he

leaves germany with something far more important to the boy. he's fighting at home in the crime while the you you totally right. of course. what you queen, needs for a successful counter, a for offensive are modern weapons, including our motor vehicles, including tangs and motor, and a tillery and western made or a defense system. and all of that is included in this message. 2.7000000000, the euro military age packaged at berlin is offering to key if. but i also think that this awards here in austin was symbolically very important as well as the promise as we just her. it's made by the german chancellor all our shows. but also other leaders speaking here in ok and that they are determined to support ukraine on its way on it's pos towards the your p n union and becoming a member of the european union. the deputies, brussels, b. r. a chief,

alexandra fun, nomine. thank you. so much i the results in turkey's general election, so it's a todd rice, but president richard type. 3rd one appears to have a slightly more than 80 percent of the about calvin state media site. one has received just on the 50 percent of the vote. he's rival, come up to look, star live trailed with 44 percent, a separate count by the pro opposition and the new side put the candidates, nick and nick with a good one, slightly ahead. if no one wins more than 50 percent of the boat rentals will be held on may 20 yet. so let's go to add circuit correspondent, you'll be hon in ankara at the headquarters of the opposition party, the c h. pay more than 90 percent of the votes have now been counted. julia took us through the results we have. so i thought well, what i can tell you is the gap between president ed one and his main rival. mr. custodial has narrowed in recent hours even if we take into consideration that

there are competing sources of information for these election results. the reason for the fact that there is even another news agers news agency delivering results is the fact that the opposition and many of its supporters simply do not trust the state run up to new agencies. as they say, it's controlled by the government of the presidents ad one. now the big question is, will any of the 2 men get the necessary majority tonight? that means more than 50 percent of the the votes for m will this election had to run off in 2 weeks time on may 28th. and as of now this looks like the more likely scenario a run. oh yes. so the counting, so i thought tells us it's a very tiny race. as the 1st round counting continues, the voters have confidence. you'll be at the selection is a free and

a fair contents. while among the positions support says, there has been serious concerns about the election, safety and security. so many, many people across the country have actually volunteered to money to develop foxes . we're talking about hundreds of thousands of people from political parties, but also at n g o. 's who have watched out very closely for the ballot boxes here today. there are international observers here in the country as well. and it's going to be interesting to wait and see what they will say, what their assessment looks like about a speaking about san is this has been a very, an even playing field. the composition is heavily tilted in favor of the government president, right of type ad, one controls, the state resources. he controls the air waves, his interviews with the john, and this has been as simple changes leave broadcast. it's on many of the or most of

the main tv stations here, where is his main challenge or mr. collette. you only got a tiny fraction of that at time. so if you take all of that into consideration, it's actually quite remarkable that the opposition manage to present such a challenge to president ad ones, the group on power that we're talking about such and nice edge about tonight's definitely to the honda in ankara. thank you. a look at some of the other stories making news around the world. now these files military has reported fresh rock and 5 from gas at the spot, a safe spot mediated by egypt. it says a rocket was fired into southern israel, less than 24 hours after the 6 flat went into effect. it comes off the days of fighting between israel and palestinian is when jihad militants. in gus. hundreds of spanish promise of taking to the straits of madrid to protest against

the rising cost of fuel and fertilizer. i also want the government to base and manage both. the supplies spine is facing severe drought and recorded it's hot us and dr. april eva c. cycling market is lashing the coastline along the border. it me and my and bang the dish. well thirty's evacuated. 400000 people ahead of the john. john stone. i groups have won't have severe consequences for cups is dissolved the side of the world's biggest refugee camp, which lies in most likely laid for the 29 opposition parties as emerging in thailand's parliamentary election with 97 percent of the votes counted results for the from ty and move forward parties far ahead of the military backed welding, party of prime minister, failed to jump on. a former army later. first came to a pallet in a 2014 to earlier last, but today douglas asia pacific bureau chief guild matters in bangkok and asked him

what he's hearing in the early stages of the bug counting as well. what i heard to lots of the this these day and i spent most of the day here in central bank corporate upholding station is the number 31 that is a real surprise for the country, the number 30 $0.01 for the move forward party, a party that has its face with young, millennial boulders, but has moved well beyond that voter electoral uh into um, basically if you look at bank card, it has basically taken it constituencies here in the capital of thailand in a landslide. and it's the rising star in this electoral rates, a k or the opposition looks at the beginning to as you site, but they might struggle to form a government. is that true? and how difficult is that possible? i going to be yeah, this is where ty elections get a bit complicated. that is true. for instance, if you look at the last election in 2019, it was the pure tie,

the main. so then the main opposition party that got the most seats and it's, it's likely that this time around or opposition party in this case move forward is like you to get most seats about a back then peer type was not able to form a government and that has 2 reasons. there are $250.00 military appointed senators at that will also get to say and who becomes prime minister. and the boat is likely to go to the pro military, really conservative of coalition here in the country. and then of course, you have the situation that you will have to build a coalition. it is unlikely that one party will get the majority of seats an absolute majority. and so they will have to work together. and that is quite interesting that in the press conferences, i just followed of the 2 chief opposition parties that are currently leading this electoral race. they both sets, they are willing to talk to each other,

but i can tell you this monday, the horse trading starts and it won't be easy to give you right suspect. uh um, let's talk about it. more totland has a long and troubles history of military cuz as he mentioned, what level of concern is the the army mot again interfere with the democratic process. you will see you have to move forward. party is leading this race at the moment. there is some concern from people i've talked to today on the streets because they have some radical ideas to reform the constitution in the country to move away from the standards like there is a law that prohibits insulting the monarchy. so they want to move away from that, they want to script the conscription for the military in the country. and that is something that a lot of our, the older voters find rather on sibling. and they were hoping that the car and prime minister probably which on or travel

a gain power in the military to 9 years ago, who said he would stand for stability and, and protect those old values at they are, they're worried that this may change. so that will be interesting to see, but at the moment we're really say it doesn't look like any military coups is on the, on the cards. the expectations are quite high. and if, if this a vote is a referendum on the performance of the current pro military government, one has prostate. that is uh, quite, quite a defeating boat. that they have to be experienced this night. give mathis in bangkok, thank you so much. i to have a full, we got a vermont of our top story. this. our lots have been counted and took, he's land 5 general election, which puts the opposition candidates to mount ellipse, doubtless, taking pounds. he's hoping to ask the president, richard, the type of the one who is governed for 20 hits the ones on the pressure. i think he's response to every step of a study with white and soaring and flesh. and with that,

you're up to date up next. sports like the story of the sense 0. it's a honda but i seem to line an inter milan, one of the world's most eye clinic football stadiums. and it's future is i'm just read that story coming out and with funding underway. counting on the why and thailand and turkey, it's a very good time to remind you to visit the www dot com at any time you like. for the latest news on anthony housing berlin, it'd be more news in 45 minutes to stay with us. if you can interest the global economy, our portfolio dw business be here's a closer look at the project to analyze the flight for market dominance with w.
