'Strong' action required to keep Belarus in line, says Estonian PM

Kaja Kallas says hard and swift action by the EU will send the right message to Belarus

Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas tells Newshour that the only way to stop Belarus and President Lukashenko from doing as they please is for hard sanctions to be placed on the country. Also in the programme Japanese tennis star Naomi Osaka says she won't attend the obligatory post-match news conferences at the French Open this year because it's bad for the players' mental health and the French president, Emmanuel Macron, has asked Rwandans for forgiveness for his country's failings in the genocide in 1994.
