1:09 pm
shocking aspects of the f s b's report was that the suspected assailant apparently used her 12 year old daughter to actually carry out this attack. and according to the ambassador of the daniel people's republic, this would not be the 1st time the key of has used children to carry out criminal acts. national chelton bushed, daria visited a dpr very often and even more opened its last date though she was among the 1st to be married pole in as of style spreading the truth that he's so skillfully and persistently hidden that he didn't spare herself, but realized the heat risk, she was there with us in order to spread the truth around the world. and for this truth that he was killed, the nazi ukrainian regime was a nurse by the fact the diarrhea was there at as of styles williams. and she was a journalist and that was the fact that we have a different opinion to school. the fact that we are not like the nazi carefree shaped or the fact that we stand up for people and for our history, it infuriates sandwiches. and this is how they express their loss in front of us. as of now, key of has flat out denied any involvement in this terrorist attack saying that
1:10 pm
it's security services were not behind it. and so we've also heard from the representative of the secretary general at the united nations calling for an independent investigation to establish the facts surrounding the murder of daria do gonna. so we will have to see if that investigation will go through and what kind of other information can be yielded by it. meanwhile, a former russian state, duma deputy who's now are you korean citizen claims care was not said vold at all, endorse assassination elia. panama insists it was carried out by a group called the national republican army, which he said as a union of russian liberal forces. despite the group never been heard of before though i had a clear understanding that people from the so called national republican army with which we've been in touch since april, have long been preparing an operation with a larger scale than they had ever done before. when it happened, they sent photos from the scene of the explosion to confirm that it was them. they
1:11 pm
sent a manifesto. natalia volvic had nothing to do with this campaign. when this message appeared, i contacted people from russia with whom we communicate. and they said no, it wasn't her what british media outlets in particular, how picked up on promoted paula morris claims about a legit liberal forces coming together and fighting against last year. but moreover, they've also similarly tried to humanize the story, emphasizing that brushes chief suspect in the killing is the mother of a 12 year old child. a reminder, rushes security service concluded that key of intelligence was behind the assassination. will independent political assumptions. webber in the u. k believe some western media artists are still pursuing an anti russian narrative while covering the killing of doria to gonna. i think the whole agenda buys circle countries, increasing the united kingdom has been to promote the idea that the
1:12 pm
credit side is profits, saints be the russian side represents a cause. we have any justification. i know he said he means to bring this about. so what we've got comparing with this latest news regarding this matter that the journalist is already, there's russian propaganda coming out and they presented in somehow all right, said carry out this assassination. and that the, it's actually been, we're far date and it's double standards. they think we've, if it is up in the united states or another country b point to be put forward. so a so very started aid. ok. another big story of the

legal to leave the one off his claws, aid who has been allegedly postured by police and the secret services, and it appears that the better lines had been drawn between pot, full pockets ability and the export prime minister, who is a what appears to be more extremely popular in focus on. and he has a lot of them feed that he also run an independent fund policy now about this on believe which is a known to be pro us. and bach us on has been an ally of the us for last decade. but followed by mr. mon, hon. wants to have an independent foreign policy, and according to the hiccups said, with a 72 percent focus on his consider the use as the enemy in dark context and the gum it null, deploy us government, which has been brought in in cloud. i've been moving the foaming feminist government. they are prosecuting for a farmer from new sit on video charges just a few days back a day and just did

1:16 pm
really difficult for the reason is this, that this whole proceeding in the slumber ice court looks patiently or rather than legal moriello. but if the levels are within the country, it's pretty obvious that it's all political. that is going on for quite some time. but some government medium, 13 party combination that is also supported by box military submission is trying to disqualify the former prime minister and on, on the most popular vision in the country on one of the other. not only the content charges case that if there was a debt, is in charge against them in the last 24 hours. they want to hire the cases against him or what his policy or a form, in case that it's under think process. and also case it is one of the case where he's at the be taking the wrong one
1:17 pm
all the cases and the other. he should be removed and bard and from the other in the old that if he are going to be able to divide his party, what he saw popular that it is also very difficult even if he is disqualified. busy momentarily this is only going to improve and increase in the letter. he does know that he's very, very popular at the moment in the last 2 years has been so popular across them. yeah, i was, i was going to ask just with the tara, tara charges and weeds. how is not going to play out among his followers? where could this move lead the country? is there a risk of master rest? the yes it is up. you see his followers while speaking to us, welcome to his 2nd leadership of the things that the government, the bodies are trying to provoke them. and they find to provoke his followers. we run on followers to go on the lords and streets and education so that they can turn
1:18 pm
them into an empty state activity. and they're very desperate to, to which the amazon. com follows a guess a bit of like the military. but in the uncommon party, a very careful they won't, they don't want to give them this opportunity. in the case of like all fuck since when he has said, i mean it's very important. just joining you in this program. i again watch the short one minute of his speech of a blog, obviously with the goal. and he clearly sees that i just have a meeting with my lawyer and we have decided that we require the fed jobs and the officers will send his ex, solve the reason of the despite the fact that he complains will be better than water. we haven't had to do for once again. so he gives the reason as well. i mean, you know, is the saying that he's going to be more action with the collection of the box of
1:19 pm
the legal case against the additional sessions in the police, which is, which is perfect for me. well, if i get another aspect, can i just touch upon it as a veteran, tv news yourself, how much of a blow is it for him? ron can to have essentially been silenced on the airwaves in pakistan. you know, how vital is television to him to be able to get his message across because he shoes the popular and social media twitter, for instance, so many millions of followers. yes, i mean, he's followed by something like more than 70000000 people. what's the word? i mean, this is single, largest strategic on for and the follow him everywhere in the world. and also that his followers are very active and twitter all it's a lot because the channel one of the major, the largest television networks for the news that was banned from the cable network in the country. and 7 fathers still not back, despite the fact that the same high court, which was the constitution,
1:20 pm
was one of the 4 of them. and the orders being a court in the country has order of the leg work of emerald when they can get along. but we haven't opened it up and this is a loss to him because of this news is also a warning other television channels. so they also under stress and then he was also the last day, i think it's the band with what we just came back to us flying to stop this message reaching the public. but he has a huge, critical mass that it is very difficult at this stage. you can call his popularity because he wanted up for about 24000 feet before put it at the moment. which is a huge challenge for us to travel for the summer. just to conclude, and because i think from the outside looking it, it's a little bewildering to some people. what does the government actually want dealing
1:21 pm
him won't make the problem go away as they say it will it? and in fact, it could cause the opposite just in bold and his supporters and also make maybe those people sitting on the fence. think that if you're going to go after somebody like this in such a way, well, i'm going to support him. yes, it's a good question, it's a puzzle has been hit because the goal posts are changing ever since they took on 10 people's and 22. initially they said they were horribly elections very quickly within the budget and all the election. then the said they will want to have any more maker forms and negotiations compete with i m f, which have mostly concluded. but now it looks that they are so afraid of the 17th july and job when there was an election by election when the seats in which the party looks very badly on the call for speech in wrong cons, 4415 read that it's believed that was for people to open the rigging law,
1:22 pm
we have sort of 3 that are said that we cannot be actions they can find a solution to the solution is this that you can get him into so many cases that the level of the next week, a mission mission for right now, he's in on bill in the more live in that it isn't. this is what the better than 11 to financially for the things that we could spend all her time in the we didn't have any time to get actually continuing. and they don't want, who are the elections for the future? how long will be there will do they want some sort of martial law in that moment. ok. why fascinating to hear your thoughts on that as it played? so i thank you so much for joining us. today and from islam about dr. movie present, the editor of the global village space magazine. many things i could run
1:23 pm
can, who as we were speaking about was, i said earlier this year of the nation's prime minister has been under intense pressure from his political rivals who are now in power. that situation strong plenty of parallels to what's happening. state side with former us president donald trump. ortiz racial blevins, picks up the story. the crackdown on the former prime minister of pakistan continues. months after he was removed from office and it's drawn comparisons to the vine and ministrations treatment of former president trump in a world where both former officials have seen their supporters compared to domestic terrorist m round con is now reportedly facing terrorism charges following a speech, he gave to a crowd of supporters in which he vowed a lawsuit against police, alleging that they tortured his close aid. this comes as regulators have also banned the live broadcast of his speeches. drawing sharp criticism from con in response, the fascist imported government sung to a new,
1:24 pm
lo today by banning live coverage of my speeches on tv and then blocking you to temporarily during my speech at least get bog. all this, after continuous intimidation of media persons and taking channels off air earlier, con continues to address anti government protest after he was removed and a vote of no confidence back in april the law, the government attempts to limit who can listen to his speeches that has only led to more attention and more support, so of kindness facing terrorism charges. then what does that mean for his supporters? and could they face action themselves? notably, hundreds of individuals gathered outside of conn's home after the police investigation into his speech was announced. and they've out to take over the capitol if he was arrested. so far that hasn't happened as a court issued a protective order that prevents his arrest for at least 3 days. ah,
1:25 pm
i comparisons to the politics in the u. s. have come about as trumps. reach was also limited after he was banned by all major social media platforms. however, supporters did participate in protest that turned into riots at the u. s. capital back in january 2021. their faces were placed on f. b. i wanted posters, and so far the longest sentence stands at more than 7 years. and while trump himself has hinted at running for office again in 2020 for the current administration, appears to be doing everything in its power to keep him out of the white house. earlier this month, trump's home was rated by the f b i with a search warrant revealing an investigation under the espionage act. similar scrutiny has been applied to con. as pakistan's media watchdog argue that the prime
1:26 pm
minister's speeches amount to threats against state institution and government officials and therefore cannot be broadcast live. it has been observed that mr. iran con chairman pakistan. terry key in soft in his speeches and statements is continuously alleging state institutions by leveling baseless allegations and spreading hate speech through his provocative statements against state institutions and officers which is prejudicial to the maintenance of law and order, and is likely to asterisk, disturb public peace and tranquillity at the tail of 2 populous politicians who continue to influence the public despite the fact that they are no longer in office, raising questions of how far the government's will go to st. silence their voices and how their supporters will respond loc feel authorities in riga of dismantle them, and muriel to soviet soldiers commemorating victory over nazi germany. the controversial move has provoked outrage in moscow on among lafayette minority ethnic russian community. lafayette police arrested at least 5 people from the
1:27 pm
crowds who gathered up the site to protest. at the start of this month, the authorities in the capital announced the monument would be completely destroyed . r t corresponded peter scowl told me. who so the monuments in question heard the monuments to liberates as a reagan i was built in 1985 as you said in the, in honor of the soviets role in liberating rieger from nazi germany. not only if you've seen it, but it's quite a huge structure. it's an 8 to 5 meter obelisk, this fine side, the side by soviet soldiers, on warner and the soviet woman on the other with her arms based high. and this moved by the latvian all for it is, is just the latest in the baltics as she stokes tensions with russia. for example, it comes just one week after estonia removed another soviet monuments in the town of knob and own house. be said, this money was much smaller than the one in latvia, but the issue is quite divisive. and these multi countries, latvia and estonia,
1:28 pm
but she accelerated their plans to remove soviet era monuments in lights of the war in ukraine. but as i said, it is quite divisive. and in latvia, there's around 25 percent of it's $1900000.00 population, our ethnic russians, and many of them are against the removal of the monument to liberators of rica. the lavender russian union debt was wanting to hold a protest to decry and denounced removal of this monuments. and he said that it gathered around 10000 signatures of people who were against it. both the local authorities, they did not give a permit, citing a safety insecurity philosophy. the whole area has actually been cordoned off in preparation for that demolition, but talking about this particular monument to the liberators. regan's not the 1st controversy that surround in it every year on may, the 9th locals gather that to lay flowers in on of the sacrifices made by soviet troops to liberate the city. and this year, local police said around $20000.00 people gathered there this on official events.
1:29 pm
but here's where the controversy lies early the next day, those flowers that were laid by those people who actually bulldozed and we can see quite shocking images of them circulated on social media, mostly hundreds of thousands of flowers that they got rid of. and obviously this can cause a wave of disc incense and there was widely condemned me by the russian foreign ministry as well as the latvian russian union. the boats in an act of defiance. on the next day may, the 10th people went to lay more flowers and you know, in honor of the soviet sacrifices made. but the controversies don't end there on the day may the 10th, there was a young lady of 19 years old at the time, alexander stefan of he was up, she arrested for waving a russian flag and giving a speech there. now he says he sees the victory day and waving the russian fight as a symbol of unity. but i think it's fair to say that the levine authors in the police didn't see it that way. they saw his actions as supporting the war and
1:30 pm
ukraine. now he faces up to 5 years in jail to certainly a have to sentence for waving a flag like a say, a very divisive issue, and i'm sure this won't be the last time we'll be discussing the baltic states moving soviet era memorials here. and as peter mentioned, a full quarter of lafayette population are ethnically, russian. the chief editor of the bolt news website believes authorities there are holy, ignoring the values all about grouping. intellectual community shane. this is a criminal decision made in the context of the crisis in ukraine. attempts to impose this decision on the routing majority have long been tried and the situation has formed such this become possible. this was taken advantage of a program was announced to dismantle all military graves and soviet monuments. this monument was a holy place for the russian speaking population. and hundreds of thousands of people come from many cities on mass. on may, the 9th and the latvian nationalists did not care about the opinion of these people, their values reg.
