00:00Ukraine's presidential chief of staff, Andrei Yermak, resigned today after anti-corruption
00:05agents raided his home as part of a major investigation into the state nuclear power
00:10company Energa Atom.
00:13President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed the resignation, stating that Ukraine needs internal
00:17strength and no distractions from its defense.
00:20The National Anti-Corruption Bureau, or NABU, said the searches were part of a probe into
00:25a scheme at Energa Atom that allegedly siphoned 100 million dollars.
00:31Investigators say the ringleader was businessman Timur Mindich, a former close associate of
00:35Zelenskyy who has since been sanctioned.
00:39The European Commission praised the raids, saying they demonstrate that Ukraine's anti-corruption
00:43watchdogs are functioning and doing their work.
00:46Yermak, who has been a key figure in peace negotiations, said he is fully cooperating with investigators.
00:55And he said he is fully cooperating with others.

01:30Viktor Orbán makes no secret of his close relationship with the Russian President.
01:35This meeting is yet another rebuke for the European Union, which has been seeking to isolate
01:40Moscow since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine began in February 2022.
01:46The Kremlin, for its part, has welcomed Hungary's position in the ongoing conflict.
01:51Missiles cases surged by 47 per cent in Europe and Central Asia last year, due largely to
02:02falling vaccination rates, according to a new report from the World Health Organization.
02:06Earlier this year, the agency said there were more than 120,000 measles cases in Europe and
02:13Central Asia in 2024, the highest level in more than 25 years.
02:19The warning comes amid trouble signs that measles is resurging globally, with 21st-century
02:24gains in curbing infections and death beginning to slip away.
02:28In 2024, an estimated 95,000 people worldwide died from measles, mostly children under the
02:35age of five.
02:36That is down from 780,000 deaths in 2000.
02:40Globally, measles vaccination campaigns have saved nearly 59 million lives since the turn of
02:46the century, the WHO said.
02:55Pope Leo XIV has met with leaders of the Eastern and Western churches in Iznik, Turkey, on Friday
03:01to pray for unity among Christians.
03:05At the site of the historic Council of Nicaea, held in 225 AD, the Pope joined Patriarch Bortholomeo
03:12and other religious leaders to recite the Nicene Creed.
03:21Leo called the Creed fundamental for moving towards full unity and urged overcoming centuries
03:26of division in the very place where it was held.
03:29We are gathered here not simply to remember the past.
03:36We are here to bear living witness to the same faith expressed by the fathers of Nicaea.
03:46We return to this wellspring of the Christian faith in order to move forward.
03:56Representatives of Syriac, Coptic, Armenian and Protestant churches also attended the event.
04:02Before the prayer, a small protest by the Islamic New Welfare Party ended peacefully under police
04:07supervision.
04:12Art lovers from outside Europe hoping to admire the Mona Lisa will soon have to pay more.
04:16The lure has decided to increase admission for non-European visitors by 45 percent starting
04:21in January 2026.
04:24Visitors from countries like the US and China will now be charged 32 euro, an increase of
04:2810 euro from the current price.
04:31The museum says the extra revenue is to tackle structural problems following the spectacular
04:35jewel heist last month that exposed inadequate security systems.
04:39However, unions have criticized the move, warning that scrapping the universal entry fee could
04:44be seen as discrimination.
04:46Other French tourist sites, including Versailles, are considering similar moves.
