a separation for at least welcome to the program, aims to the late russian opposition leader like say no volume. you say moscow has set an ultimatum for his mother to agree to a secret funeral. they say she was given just 3 hours to make a decision. you should she not comply. russian authorities have threatened to marry him in the penal colony where he died along. his mother has been demanding authorities hand over his body to allow for a public burial with friends, family and supporters. a lot of mirror i sure cough is the executive director of the intake corruption foundation and close friend of alexander vonny who joins us now from london. so i am your 1st off, i'm very sorry for your loss as must be a difficult time for you and we appreciate you speaking to us. why do you think russian authorities are so desperately seeking to have?

i'll explain a volume bird and a secret funeral. thank you for your kind words. thank you for having me. um mister puts in and ross on a sorry it is, have been afraid of what i've seen them all the while. it was a life and the events of the week this has passed since his death, so that they are afraid of him even when his dead. so we see it is shameful spectacle with his body, which by ross and loss, and by any human practice, it has to be given to his relatives to his mother. but we just learned a couple of hours ago that his mother received an ultimatum that either say, agrees to a silence. but now without any including the ration. busy or that so i just plan to break him at the penal colony with no access for relatives

during the funeral. and probably no actually does that to that. you say russia is scared of the volume even after his death. why do you think that is? well over a years and i've only emerged as the most prominent to point in to vladimir puts it on. she was not afraid to raise his voice against ty, ronnie, and war um and uh, i think russian authorities don't want his funeral to, to be a, a, a, have an opportunity for people to protest during the funeral across russia. so i think this was behind it. a lot of people feel, of course, very strongly about his passing, but you were his friend. how are you coping with the last out

a week after his death it has been a shock and the pain is still fresh. but he would wanted us, his friends, his associates, o democratically minded people in russia and outside of russia to support him to continue his work. and that's, that's what we intend to do. so it's have to be strong in this tragic days. how do you feel about possibly never knowing how he died? i think the tooth will come out. we have its fury, an idea of why he was killed. um now, when not he gets ready to make this public. but i think with our team will

talk about it quite shortly. the investigation is going on and i'm pretty sure that we will find the tools. but one thing is clear, it was not a natural death. it's indeed, wasn't murder as i was letting mirror shore across the executive director of the anti corruption foundation, a close friend of alex, a volunteer speaking to us earlier use president joe biden has announced punitive sanctions against 500 targets in russia, in a fresh effort to counter what he called to is a war machine. the measures also seek to punish russian officials for the death of alex, a nevada. the last week. target include people connected with his imprisonment as well as individuals involved in supporting the war, including the defense and financial sector will break the resolve we use. janelle de malone told me more about these latest sanctions. so yeah,

so earlier we actually her job. i didn't talk about the sanctions and the speech at the white house, he reiterated, but the white house does blame of the kremlin for the death of alexia volney, and that the sanctions are in response to them. now the sanctions of course, are the single largest trains of sanctions imposed on russia in a single day since the war started. as he said, had includes over $500.00 targets, including 2 of russia is our biggest companies by revenue as a supplier of specialty steals. as well as a military logistics company. now it also aims to target the financial sector in the form of targeting, and that in a rush was national payment system. the point of the sanctions is also to cut into rushes, oil revenue as well as crank crack down on the sanctions, evasion enablers around the world, in europe, in as in central asia and in the middle east. now of course saw these us sanctions

come after that you has announced their own sanctions as well as the u. k. and the hope is really that this coordinated effort helps to slow down russia's washing machine out of time where ukraine is running out of munitions. and we've reached a stage of the war where both sides really do appear. doug and i want to know dum alone in washington. as it rustles with policy is to increase the european union's governing body has made a symbolic gesture on the eve of the worst 2nd anniversary. the european commission and res, ukraine's flag in front of its headquarters in brussels, where and now flies between 2 e. u flags. i mean begun the process of joining the block officials and keeping him to hoist their colors there permanently. german foreign minister and alena, bab bulk has called out russia for intentionally targeting civilian infrastructure following the invasion of ukraine. addressing the un general assembly in new york bab up also accused russia of using food as

the front, this is what the experience and it is absolutely terrifying. and mostly because you as a citizen, as a human being can do absolutely nothing against the huge piece of metal that is coming from this guy to kill you. and everything that you loved and worked for. this is what the life in your brain is right now. and the short issues amunition that we have talking about. it's not just some general sort that you find munition . it means that people are the front, do not have the ability to find back. and it means that i'll wait a defense systems do not have enough to protect us. so basically, every single evening when you're going to bed, you'll have no guarantee that you will wake up in the morning and then you wake up out of the air instead of being one. and you go to the bump shelter where you spent a decent time of your day. same for adults, kids,
