what does it mean for a journalists ability to be able to continue the sort of struggle which mr. murat, of and miss ross are, are engaged in. in, in the one hand, you can obviously see the recognition and the, the support that would come from this price. is there a downside to does it enabled detractors from them? may be powerful or circles of pals and governments to say, well, you're simply a tool of the, of a western institution or a western agenda. and there is say, an obvious risk of these 2 persons virus. more i thought and their colleagues in the philippines, russia and elsewhere, are the target criticism and harassment government off east. this will make them more visible and what would be a like a public decrease with this nomination because they are critical to voices icons, authoritarian government and government will not be happy with the simulations. and it was the acute, some of the instruments for an interest, but that i think is common to any human rights defender naming and blaming human rights of users. so that's part of the game i would say, unfortunately, but i think

murat isn't doing anything illegal, but he still doesn't want to be identified.ll send it to the belarus tourism companies, and they send us invitations. so when people come to you, you know they're not going to belarus for a holiday. of course. you know they're going to europe. yeah. by now, idris and his friends have reached the bela rusian capital, minsk. the airport is jammed with people making the same journey. the group has been told to go to a hotel and wait for instructions. are you worried about the journey? translation: of course we are. we are crossing the border illegally. we don't know what will happen. we can't trust anyone — not even our smugglers. in may, the president of belarus, alexander lukashenko, threatened to flood the eu with drugs and migrants — revenge, it seems, for eu sanctions. soon, thousands were crossing into lithuania. we went there to see the border. the guards here still catching dozens of migrants every day. lithuania says belarus is actively helping them to cross illegally. in some places, the border is little more than a gap

in low income nations are fully vaccinated with more in the story here, sir. senior correspondent, murat gas div. we will remember how it started. we were all scared. there was no medicine will cure no vaccine and new blad, the rich and the poor were truly equal. no amount of money would protect you from this dreadful new virus. back then we all needed one another. we're all in this together and we'll come through together. sound trite to say, we're all in this together. these are dark, this. but there are also this between the hours humanity. we are confident humanity will step up and shine. and here we are still waiting for humanity to start shining. the worst of the pandemic for the reach is now over this treatments as vaccines and a plan, just not for everyone. bridge countries claim they would share doses to vaccinate the world would have failed to do so with any urgency or any significant scale, people in low and middle income countries cannot trust the charitable goodwill of rich nations and pharmaceutical corporations. rich nations pledged near enough to 1000000000 doses for the

a question or senior correspond murat, gusty of has been looking into in this day in age, almost nothing is sacred off limits. you can weaponized anything, trade, culture information. it doesn't have to kill all it has to do is hut. in light of these developments, the united states is pausing assistance from, from the $700.00 or $700000000.00 in emergency assistance appropriations of economic support funds for susanna. this was badly needed money for one of the poorest nations in the world, but it came of all sorts of political strings attached thick cables of them. as a door assistance, often does, they are weapons behave do as you are told or will cut you off. the problem is the people who get cut off usually aren't the ones that misbehaved. like when the us froze of ghana, se don's bank accounts. president biden is not hurting the taliban, or the current regime. this is really hurting every day. afghans and the united states will push them into further poverty. take my word for it. while in afghanistan, i didn't see a single hungry taliban fighter. i saw thousands of civilians the poo

stewart shell remains adamant, though the top ross needs to be held to account or senior correspondent, murat. gusty of picks up the story for us. there is the opinion that he got off very light. all things considered the scandal that he caused winter went right up to congress and the united states military, we will know it doesn't like scandals. it does, it's best to deter for those who would start scandals and that it's squashes scandals out sometimes in a very harsh way. so it was surprising that instead of a paths, jail time, perhaps a dishonorable discharge, all he was sentenced to was a $5000.00 fun, which will be dogged from his wages next month, as well as a letter of reprimand. there's told off basically. so he gets an honorable or less than honorable discharge, as well as gets the keep all of his or all the pension that he has worked up on the 17 years of service before he went into the court. ah, he said that ultimately he had to bear responsibility for his actions. just as those above him had to bear responsibility for their actions as including the chaotic withdrawal from caniste

this is our tease, murat gas div route. hello. the opposition is branding these latest developments as a fully fluent coup. it's happening. this is what's happening right now in the country. they are alleging is that from what we're here, we know is happening. well we've, we've heard that the military has indeed locked down heartily. capital that they've blocked all roads, all bridges leading into the city. we've seen a post shared by the ministry of information, apparently from the president colon people urging protests as those who value their freedom and democracy to go out into the streets and to pro, asked against what again they're calling unarmed to buy the military to just to bring everyone up to speed up for a while now years the military had shared power with a civilian government in order to transition from an auto chrissy to a democracy. ah abdallah albert shear, the former president who ruled for more than 30 years, he was deposed in 2019 and ever since then they had been trying to transition to a democracy. it had be

prizes were announced, both governments had some serious spinning to do the kremlin initially offered murat off, it's congratulations before the president reminded him that laws written in moscow take precedence over awards, panted out in awesome islam, would it be creditable as cooper mc she told me that there was to put you into a little trade. i says icon, my chickens. i didn't notice as met in and the official filipino response was more brazen. the government tried to take credit for rest as a warm recipe that is alive, and the proof is even the noble price at white, even the money of it. if there was a nobel prize. as for hypocrisy, rodrigo, do 10, would be among the nominee. a couple of years ago, i saw a press conference when he was talking about the media and the shortest thing. this is the man it keep trying to call this award for my ref. i think it's going to be a great shame. there was an attempt to highlight maria races nobel prize win as evidence that everything is good in the philip pain. but the same time as this is happening. she's still facing decades in jail. she could pot
