say that to be a did to come to pressure when it comes to it's opinion of the general assembly of the united nations with condemning russia. however, the things i would say are changing because the pressure from, from grassroots within the country is really strong. also, there will be severe economic consequences if serbia would impose sanctions. for the price of gas is much better for the serbian of state and citizens compared to the price in the west. and if for serbia, god forbid imposes sanctions, then that would mean that we would face a severe inflation because of the higher prices of, of gas and oil. mm. what possible actions are, what do you foresee stuff in the you taking to try and force belgrade to follow its policies against moscow? ah, it is amazing how, how they conduct themselves. because on one hand, there's a pressure, there's a stick and the stick. you know, the stick in parents policies we frequency carriers anymore because in exchange for serbia imposing sanctions against russia, they would, i guess i was to recognise secession. of course, let me talk here from serbia. i mean, th

national assembly. he becomes the head of the national assembly. his wife is also having an initial assembly i think before him and then travis elevates him to for many foreign minister and then after travis winter election in 2012, he makes him vice president and by that child is if he doesn't know that he's dying. he knows that he's very sick. he's questions whether he can you know continue in office and so by then he's clearly sort of at least sort of given maduro and nudge up in the the competition to succeed chavez and but but so a and and what was not an easy world to survive, which is the certain no, i can't imagine it because the rule there was don't you know don't shine at all don't shine the leader, but don't try the attention to yourself if possible because travis repeatedly when people would would appear to have a following of their own would not come down. so he survives there and then after travis guys, he's very agile in over time and dealing with a very the factions within chubby small and surviving. i mean, i think a lot of people

and of course, perhaps, the main star in the current composition of the russian national team is the assemblye is it here? they say? this is matvey michkov, the author of the youngest goal, e for the russian team in history, and just a few moments remain before the face-off, when the first historically important match for e, tula starts here for the first time. an international hockey match is taking place. so we are looking forward to the bright open uncompromising game, let me remind you that in official meetings. uh, the russian team lost only once to the belarusian team, but also won 7 victories. well, naturally. looking forward to the first throw. looking forward to a nice game. and we can already state that the sports festival in tula was a success for our colleagues. we will sit behind the course of the confrontation on the ice in direct communication with tula was our correspondent stas radikultsev. the investigative committee of russia opened two more criminal cases on the facts of the shelling of residential areas. donetsk by ukrainian servicemen we are talking about 54 separate mec

he sits in the chair of the president of the national assembly and he starts the session with national assembly. i think this was a turning point then, like this was also a, the moment when the international community recognized that there was a problem going on with a mockery. some of a few months after getting into power. the book kelly administration started terminating a, an international coord agreement they had for its national anti corruption commission, is horrible or capturing the, the access to information institute, which is the institution that guarantees citizens to access to public information. protecting officials, high level officials, ministers included, that they're all have been pointed by investigations of the american government as been involved in high level corruption cases. there's also mounting evidence, how do independent make millions of dollars? well, miss used, why then this so many people still support? president buccheri and his administration. i think a lot of salvatore and seeing this interview wouldn't be believing you. right? i be believe in the gover

have them as part of this national assembly. the other argument that gets a lot of traction is, the argument where -- no, you don't need senate representation based entirely on population. but you give some of the states in the senate a few more senators! based on their population may be california gets five and wyoming gets one. ultimately, the senate is still around. make no mistake! i do not think the senate is going anywhere. secondly, i will say this. when i have the conversation with delegates in 2022, one of which was sandy. he is arguing that thing. one thing that i did, in addition to drafting what these delegates were telling me, sandy levinson, the environment, senate and so on, i get to make the claim with whether they pass the constitutional convention. sandy's radical idea of a further legislative branch, i say in the branch it's just too radical! doesn't pass. we are ending up with the bicameral legislation that we generally have. i generally think that constitutional convention delegates are conservative, small se

united states and allies of the sixties of the last century and are used as auxiliary equipment, they were assembled in several states from the location of the national guard a. the british government also announced its intention to continue deliveries of weapons to kiev. this issue is mentioned in the message of the office of the british prime minister, he discussed with the president of ukraine, meanwhile, residents of countries that are involved in the supply of weapons. kiev is increasingly expressing dissatisfaction with the course taken by their authorities. so one and a half hundred people tried to disrupt the speech of the head of the german foreign ministry when she spoke in favor of supplying ukraine with heavy weapons, the activists turned on the sirens, shouted into the targeted burbock, the instigator of war and the liar, it soon became known that the event with the participation of the head of the german foreign ministry was canceled as reported for security reasons? today stands out the force of a number of important innovations - memorials of military memory with an eternal flame. now they will be supplied with gas free of charge, and

parliament, as i see it, in relation to how to deprive the remaining members of the mps of the national assembly, which is finally banned in ukraine . in your opinion, do you think it is necessary to deprive them of their mandates at all, or have they now become very patriotic ? will do it because changes to the constitution are needed, it will be legally really difficult to do it, or you know, as soon as the war started, everyone became patriots and i won. by the way, i won the assembly with my colleagues in the parliament because i was sure that after the renaming of the opposition platform for life will have the word peace, its names, and it happened for life and peace, look here, the crisis we faced there two months before the war, which is called the kind of beautiful or the intelligent, well , an example for you, that's how it is who work for the enemy, but on the other hand, we are a democratic country, and that is , on the one hand, we cannot make important decisions. because representatives of this faction are present here, we must all be together, and so on . the country is more import

you of the results of the parliamentary elections, the ruling alliance received 2/3 of the seats in the national assembly. this is the best result of a coalition that has held a constitutional majority for more than 12 years. maria golubeva resigns, according to her , the decision was made due to pressure from the coalition government, the reason was rallies. on may 9-10, where a gathering of people was allegedly allowed to support russia and its actions in ukraine, another resonant topic was from the monument to soviet soldiers-liberators in riga, the latvian movement of the servants of the people is challenging the decision to dismantle in court. they believe that the authorities should take into account the opinion of the residents of the city. in addition , mistakes were made in the legislative procedure, so the decree to stop the monument is not legitimate. we believe that this is very important, because such important issues that occur in our country should be discussed. they are taken on the sidelines of some political forces and political parties by uk activists. greenpeace blocked the greek andr

we've also got the legislative elections coming in france very soon, mina. 577 members of the national assemblyngs — whether you're the french president, the american president, lots of different leaders around the world find this — it's much harder to get your policies through... and that's the big question that waiting now. in a few weeks�* time, will the french electorate go out and do what they usually do, which is support the party of the incumbent or at least the political programme of the incumbent president, or do they actually, seeing the split that there is in the country and the abstention that we saw during the presidential elections — not deliver that for macron, at which point he will be suffering throughout to try to implement any of his policies? one of the issues, as an outsider and people looking towards france, is this idea that marine le pen was able to get the percentage of votes above 40% — was shocking. and so the question is, what is the long—term ramifications for france? but also the fact that the traditional parties as we know them have now gone, and so i think in cou
