The grains president thought of as zalinski says, theyre just waiting on the signal from the u. N. And turkey to start grain shipments. Ah hi there, im kimberly al, this is al is airline from doha.

This, she, she ping tells joe biden not to play with fire, while bank says no new financing for sri lanka until the economy has stabilized and violent protests calling for an end to military rule in guinea. Bring the capital to a standstill. Ah, ukraine says its ready to dispatch the 1st shipments of grain from its black c ports. President Vladimir Lansky says hes waiting for the go ahead from the u. N. And turkey. About 25000000 tons of grain of being stuck in ukraines ports since russia invaded in february on hanjin his life for us now in the port city of odessa. John, so everythings in place then in that just waiting for the green light. Thats right. We have been able to confirm that not only are the 1st ship loaded up, but that it will leave to day if it hasnt already. And we know its either going to come from the port of turn, a mores or the port of odessa, which is where im standing. You cant see it because of the rules here for press, say we cant show it, but i promise you, its right over there. They want this site to be on identical and identifiable for obvious reasons because they know russians are watching. This is, well, this was all actually announced in a News Conference earlier today, but it was embargoed until just now the interior minister of, or rather the infrastructure minister, Alexander Cooper cough said at this News Conference in which members of major nations had ambassadors there. He said, we have completed our preparations to export grain to the world. The ports of church mores and odessa are currently ready to export grain. There were grain laden ships before the war ready to dispatch, and there will be other ships we expect that to happen today. And its possible that might be underway. You dont see a lot of ships back here because until this agreement that was broken by turkey, these waters were simply too unsafe for anybody to transport grain. So none of that is havent, youve had 20 to 25000000 tons of grain just sitting in this port. And now it appears beginning today that ukraine will once again feed the world. And thats important because theres a looming food crisis in africa and elsewhere where people are desperately waiting for these shipments to come. So well have apparently a 1st shipment to day and then there will be other shipments or 3 black see ports of the 2. I mentioned earlier and piv, denny, which apparently will be ready soon to can continue these shipments. But the 1st shipment apparently going out today, anton, and bring us up speed than if he would tell the latest in times of the fighting around the country and the focus on carson. Its been a very busy 24 hour. Her son has been attach a day after day. Whats been going on lately is the ukrainians have been pushing to retake that city. Its a key city. Theyve knocked out a bridge on the way there to cut off supplies to the russian forces. And now theyre trying to push into that city and take it over. They say they have isolated Russian Troops around there. The biggest news weve heard today is disputed by the 2 sides. Now, according to russian authorities in eastern ukraine, in the dumbass region. There was a strike by Ukrainian Forces and they claim that used a high mars rocket, and they claim as well that it struck the prison killing, 40 people, and wounding 75. And they say that those people in that prison were allegedly prisoners of war, ukrainian prisoners of war. Now that version of events is completely disputed by ukraine. A military Spokesman Says it was manipulative disinformation by a cynical enemy that, that in fact did not happen. So a dispute dispute over exactly what happened there, but we do expect a statement from the Ukrainian Military later explaining their version of events and in dont yet ukrainian authorities have asked residents to leave saying that if they dont, theyll be theyll have major cut offs of power, water, food, medicine, heat and communications. And we also have one more thing to add about something we reported earlier. We had previously reported that in eastern ukraine, in the town of back moot, there was a hotel struck by a russian strike. Originally, we were told there was one dead. Now that number is risen to 4. All right, thanks for the anti paint on hanjin ly for us in odessa. The german city of hanover is going to turn off hot water, municipal buildings, to save energy. Public places like gyms and swimming pools will provide only cold water for hand washing and showers.

So guy level of says he scheduled a phone call with the us secretary of state anthony, blinking will be the 1st conversation between the 2 top diplomat since russia invaded ukraine in february. I didnt confirm the date that says the agenda is still a work in progress. You as president joe biden, and chinese president teaching ping folk for 2 hours on thursday and whats being described as a 10th phone call. Or is it he has warned by and not to play with fire with regards to taiwan . Us, how speaking nancy . Pelosi is reportedly planning a visit to the island which pacing regards as part of its territory. Us president raised allegations of genocide, 4th labor of weak muslims biden, is not reported have disgust removing us power from chinese goods that he has accused facing of unfair trade practices that hom American Work is china based journalist. Patrick fock explains the latest reaction from beijing on that call. What the form is, she more or less echoed what present she had to say to present by the non the topic of taiwan in their conversation. Which was essentially that beijing was resolutely opposed to what it sees as an external interference. And those who played with fire would get burnt. One of the interesting questions that was posed to the farm and she spokesperson, jerry jan today though, was whether or not china would continue to engage with us in these dialogues. If nancy pelosi is visit to taiwan does indeed go ahead to lunch in tea. China has repeatedly made it clear to the u. S. S. Serious concern of Speaker Pelosi potential visit to taiwan at a firm, a position to visit pedro. If the u. S. I challenge is i reply. It will be confronted with Counter Measures or possible consequences that may arise from this will be borne by the us side. Now he said that the 2 lead as a degree to stay in touch, but he didnt really elaborate on whether or not this might be impacted by that potential visit by the us. How speaker beijing has wound previously impossible cancer measures. If the visit does go ahead, we dont know whether it might be a diplomatic response or military response, but certainly it would be seen as a significant set back if the 2 leaders were to stop talking to one another as they have been since President Biden came to office these at sessions where theyve come together and discuss their differences if you like, have been key really to stopping this relationship from going off the rails. And as a matter of fact, reports of said, bits of the to did as told their aids, to organize an in person meeting the next time rounds, or they speak with one a low. Well that kelly from Pusan National university and south korea says taiwan is fragmented us china relations. I think that one has really grown insignificant in the sign years, a relationship in the last few years. President jean pang of china is now looking to stay in power in the fall and the 3rd term. And hes really campaign of which is fairly unprecedented in china. And hes campaigned on nationalism for this and reification with taiwan. I think theres sort of a sense out there that this is become sort of like the mission of his presidency that he needs to do this before he passed away. And on the other hand, on the american side, joseph biden has been less than big us about the American Security commitment to taiwan as president. In the past, your viewers will probably recall that the u. S. Is making recall strategic ambiguity. There is this kind of here their stance around the issue of time needs independence and things like that and others. But theres been a hawkish turn in the United States on china in the last year that began under trump and continued into with via ministration. And that included more over statements about the us willingness to defend. I want so chinese new i states are kind of going in Different Directions on taiwan that, that the relationship is fragmented over this issue. And i think thats why youre getting such a bullet. Response was, the teacher is actually look the polling i want, i mean, most tight, hes actually realized what would happen if they actually made some kind of real effort at a breach with china. I mean, obviously that are alignments and theyre going to allow the United States and they want american protection. And so they want weapons so they can resist any kind of chinese incursions, but theyre actually well served by the policy and strategic ambiguity. And broadly, like i said, im is actually look at the polling time. Anything realizes and you not actually want the number of people actually want like an open declaration of independence. Its quite low. The well bank says that one gets your lanka Financial Assistance until it puts Economic Reforms in place.

You can see the huge are band of are police of security. Theres army on the other side that police there, special task force commanders.
