12:02 am
country and also across yeoman's borders. they've also agreed to allow fuel shipments into the port of data and for commercial flights to operate from the capital sun up. the saudi led coalition had already announced a unilateral one month cease fire to mock ramadan. the war has now entered its 8 year the truce, which as the possibility of renewal, coincides with the scar of the holy month of ramadan. it opens the thoughts with it as he gems urgent to meditate in a different ami needs and creates a general opportunity to restart yeoman's political process. these truce must be a footstep dwindling yet men's devastating war or yemen is a country that's been torn apart by conflict since 2014, when the who these capture the capital santa and demanded a new government. the following year, a coalition led by saudi arabia started
12:03 am
a military campaign against the who sees the you and estimates that since then. 377000 people have been killed both directly and indirectly by hunger and disease. yemen was already one of the poorest countries in the middle east before the war started. now it's facing a wealth at largest humanitarian crisis. i'm at l. i. thom has more from the capital son. it's means a lot to him, and he's in case such a declaration of truce is being committed by worrying sides, especially the, along the 18, nearly 18 oil tankers to go to go into the data, which the many people have, especially those who are under the control of the hoses, the are suffering from dia, crisis of fuel, of so the is a serious fuel cra, crisis of fuel. so many people i've been waiting for this moment and also the other
12:04 am
important issue that has been declared by the un invoice. also the reopening of the sunshine to national airport, which has been closed or banned from international and commercial flights. as since 2016 while it was closed or banned by the saudi lit, kuala sion on the 9th of of the 9th of august 2016. so it's, it's been a long time for him and he's not being able to travel abroad. busy especially from the areas under the control of how these there are, according to the number of international organizations, lee, at least 30000 people died because there an ability to travel abroad for treatments . dave de russia is a non resident senior fellow at the golf international forum and former nato operations director in the office of the secretary of defense. he joins me now for
12:05 am
maryland. so we don't know if this truce is going to succeed, comes at an important time just before the month of ramadan, where people be hoping for some much needed rest fight. how do you suppose these 2 parties were persuaded to agree to this in the 1st place? good question. i think it's just strategic exhaustion. you know, the who these for a long time had felt that it was just inevitable. their success was inevitable, but they had a huge set back in march which had been besieged for over a year. and when they saw just how tenuous. ready was on march, they realized everything's not go on our way. also, at the same time, you've seen an expansion of mixed withdrawn attacks into the interior salary and into i would be. so i think that both sides kind of realized this war is not going
12:06 am
the way we want to. maybe we're going to have to sell for half a loaf. is that enough to create the willingness to implement this agreement properly and for it to work at least 2 months? i hope so. but i'm skeptical. i mean, part of the problem is yemen has, has always been a rather fragmented society, organized on tribal basis. and it's become more fragmented, some academics use the phrase atomized during war. so, you know, the sides have agreed to a solution here, but there are a lot of people with guns and in yemen, you may not feel bound by the negotiations of these 2 parties. they'll say we want to part of that. they're pursuing their own agenda. there are a lot of people who have sprung up and profited off of war. so, you know, but all that being said, his mind else is always has to be kind of negative, but you know, it's not just road on. it's also the cabinet seasonal. when this is
12:07 am
a hopeful sign. and i'm hoping that we find, you know, basis for a piece here because the war is just on sustainable. it's interesting the is that you say there will be those on the ground who have weapons that will not see themselves and having to abide by this agreement. does that mean that the united nations are talking to the right people? is it just too simplistic to see? this is a 2 party conflict as exemplified in that un resolution 2216 does it perhaps need to be expanded now to include to include more groups in these talks? i hope not. i mean, what you're hoping is that the 2 groups can come to a consensus, agree on a broad framework piece, and then either incorporate or, you know, i mean, one of one of the groups are so kind and they're not going to agree to anything. so, you know, they'll have to be wiped out. but, you know, if you have
12:08 am
a broad agreement between the 2 major sides, then you can address the other issues in detail. a secondary issue is the 7 sessions, which is always problematic. but all that being said, i mean this is the closest we've ever been. so perhaps we should put our skepticism aside for a moment and just focus on what's right and, and of course the conflict is metastasized is it's fragmented, as you say, over the years that has made negotiations more difficult. but the other thing is friction in the region between iran, saudi arabia, view a e. this is viewed as prolonging the conflict of those conditions changing well, i don't know if the baseline conditions have changed, but really in the course of the cease fire, we'll see how sincere these parties are. so the saudi justification for the blockade was to prevent the transport of advanced weaponry in t. m. and if the resumption of flights to sun up becomes, you know,
12:09 am
a pipeline for more advanced missiles and drones, then obviously it's going to be harder to, to, you know, implement a piece agreement or to get another piece agreement. similarly, you know, if we see interference with fuel food coming into the port of data, that's going to be an issue of who the credibility. ready are assessing the credibility of the coalition, but you know, so, so there's, there's a lot that can go wrong. thank you very much. dave de rush, joining us as a non resident senior fellow at the golf international form and a former nato operations director of the us secretary of defense with the news ally from london. much more still to bring you on the program hungry is prime minister victor alba. and faces the united opposition in an election, overshadowed by russia's invasion of ukraine. sweeping powers are given to sri lanka, security forces a day after hundreds of protest has tried to storm the president's home.

12:11 am
governor there has accused ukraine of sending helicopters to attack the oil storage tanks under the cover of darkness. security camera and other footage on social media seems to confirm some kind of attack by helicopters and the firing missiles if the russian claims are true. this would be the 1st attack by ukrainian forces on russian soil since the war began. ukraine's foreign minister said he could neither confirm nor deny responsibility. but the kremlin says the suspected as strike doesn't help the prospect of ongoing peace talks. ukraine's top security official later denied his country was behind the attack. russia has continued to withdraw units from towns and cities, north of the capital, keep being the cookies, go with the big, the partial withdrawal of units of the russian occupation forces from the north of

12:13 am
a convoy of buses was sent to the besieged city of mary. you, paul, in the hope of evacuating trapped residence. this is, this is from the i chair. see we are currently on the move from them please. in to the, to matter. you put in order to ensure safe passage for the civilians desperately want to hear the city. the i. c r. c is also looking to bring much needed humanitarian aid into the city. rob mcbride, al jazeera live eve rational, albert has worn out from russian capital. moscow, on what authorities, they're saying about that helicopter attack in belgrade. the kremlin, said the president put in was informed on the attack. and that her, there were decisions made to ensure that his no disruption of a fuel supplies to the origin. the kremlin also said that this attack is not going to create favorable conditions for the peace talks which resumed online. at a day. on those talks, we had 2 statements, one from the top, russia negotiator,
12:14 am
vladimir then ski, saying that the russian position on crimea and the eastern provinces of a ganske antoniette remains the same. the since the thought of the conflict, the russia has been saying that he wants ukraine to recognize crimea as part of russia and also le ganske and to the ask as independent states earlier today. foreign minister, sir gay lover of said that there is progress in the talks, and that russia's position on both republics plesk crimea, are, are not changing. but at the same time, he hinted that this could be something that will take time because of the very nature of the sticking a point. now the equations have been talking about security guarantees, something similar to the nato's collective defense mechanism. we don't, we have to wait and see whether how many countries will be on board under gallant, or whether they will be really willing to step in and present themselves as
12:15 am
guarantors in those security arrangements. so i think it will boil down to pinning down those details before there is this comprehensive political settlement that will also be conducive to a cease fire. well, attempts to set up humanitarian corridors to allow civilians out of mario pul, have again sailed on friday. the red cross complained about not being able to evacuate local residents. my boss and mario, plethora. he said the russians were blocking access to the city, but ukrainian officials say more than 3000 people did manage to leave in private vehicles. but smith is in rest of undone, has been meeting those who previously escaped by their own means going east to russia. most people who've left mary awful, they've had to make their own way out. pavel says he's used to the walking. he's a shepherd. i love the pacific water. we've got 35 kilometers to go. he says he and his wife yanna, a heading to their village,
12:16 am
away from the fighting. they hoped around a $140000.00 people have escaped mario pole in the 5 weeks since the start of what russia calls its special military operation. but not everyone made it to safety. those that do find themselves in reception centers in russia or schools like this in done yet. that's what usually sort of to me. why did we come? yeah, because it became too hard. we were exhausted. i took julia. she hasn't been outside at all for a month. because she was scared, very scared, and we went on foot a group in a column until we reached the edge of the city under shooting and bombing. but we made a thank god the people al jazeera spoke to say they're here either because the only route they could find out of mary apple brought them this way or because they relatives in russia then use them which them will. of course i want to go home
12:17 am
because i have a flat there. so i went to return to my beloved city where i was born or my daughter remains and all my friends and relatives, all my life was spent in mary hopper. oh you bob went on holiday to mary awful. when she was 18 years old. there she tells us. she fell in love. you got married and is live for 50 years. it was a perfect city. she says. oh luna nisa and he is it. we must make pace with each other. we learn these words grads, machine, guns, women, children, why do they need to know those words? it is better to learn other words, those of pace love respect towards each other, but not machine guns. when your flight is on fire or the car, that's not real pain. the real pain is that we're being torn apart. from the reception centers, people will go either to relatives in russia or temporary accommodation that can be
12:18 am
hundreds of kilometers away. no one knows when they'll be able to go back home to mario paul and the red cross as asked the russian government for permission to open an office here in ra. stop on dawn to service easton, ukraine. we're about a 90 minute drive from the border. an indication perhaps that this won't be a short term conflict. bernard smith, al jazeera roster vondell. the nuclear watchdog is sending a team of technical experts to the shipment and center talks between china and the european union. brussels pressed aging for assurances, it'll neither supply russia with arms nor help moscow gas surrounding for the virtual summit. you leaders, we're keeping their thoughts to themselves ready for a meeting which was meant to be about trade, but which many believe will fear with our sanctions. we discussed that and also the fact that no european citizen would understand any support to russia's ability to wage war. the view in beijing is more nuanced as traditional friends and allies of
12:19 am
the russians. they have not supported sanctions against ministers in moscow. underlying this summit is the reality of bilateral trade between the e, you and china, 10 times bigger than that, between china and russia, and worth hundreds of billions of dollars to both sides every year. these links are so extensive that neither side wants them threatened, but there are some industrialists here in europe, who worry. they may be too dependent on chinese imports, while governments have a new determination to prioritize both dealing with the war in ukraine and with the human rights situation in china. some analysts believe that in doing so, ministers are not understanding the strategic view of the government in beijing. china follow its own interest or was, has been following its own interest. it is one of our biggest mistakes to look at
12:20 am
china loser lenses of our inches. and in that perspective, china is only making mistakes. but why should they follow our interests and do what we asked them or even order them to do? sometimes a china is proud enough, self confident enough to follow its own interests, and that will not change today. meaning that if the european is want chinese helped end the war in ukraine, they need to persuade them it's in their interests. and so far that has not happened, dawn, it came home al jazeera, burly in russia's foreign minister. isn't that prime minister in a render mowdy in new delhi? said her lover, oh said that russia appreciates. india's independent foreign policy is ready to sell anything. the south asian asian might need, including oil. india has increased oil imports from russia while abstaining from condemning moscow's invasion of ukraine. of course one at elizabeth brawner reports now for me daily. with sir gala rod receives of
12:21 am
rare welcome on the international stage, the russian foreign minister came to india after a visit to moscow's ally, china. neither india nor china have condemned to russia's invasion of ukraine with india, abstaining from old votes on the war at the united nations lever. all said russia appreciates india's independent foreign policy. and along with china, they're working to bypass sanctions by using different currencies. many years ago we started looking at, you know, religious was, india was china as many other countries from using the doorway than yours do more and more use of national guards on the this, the circumstances get abused, read through, i believe will be those you fired wishes natural them on the eve of love robs visits. the indian government defended its decision to substantially increase all imports from russia. when oil prices go up,
12:22 am
i think it's natural for countries to go out into the market and look for what are good deals for their people. but i am pretty sure if he wait 2 or 3 months and actually look at who are the big bios of russian gas and oil. i suspect the list wouldn't be very different from what it used to be. and i suspect we won't be the top 10, on dorchester, in your honor, say india is putting it's on national interests 1st, like any other country. what i think is upsetting the western nations. that is the fact that the russians are willing to offer some oil to india with a huge discount of almost $35.00. so that, of course the western nations would like to be great to profit deering. but i would imagine that that is what any consumers do when they go to the supermarket. if they
12:23 am
find there is a sale or something they want to buy, they will utilize it. indeed, as russia is also india, the biggest arm supplier and love for all said the warren. ukraine won't disrupt that. india is walking a tightrope as it tries to keep good relations with russia and the he with america's deputy national security advisor for international economics. the leap sing visited indian officials earlier this week pending and government has said all question from western nations to take a stand against russia. the latest comment come from the architect of us sanctions against those who warned on his visit to new delhi on thursday that they will be consequences for country circumvent elizabeth moran and al jazeera. you daddy, well, of course the voters in ukraine is hungry. a crucial election is taking place this weekend, prime minister, victor, or bad faces and opposition, that's very keen to highlight as close ties to light even the person address

everyone agrees that all bands friendship with putin is as damaging as some might think. and in times of crisis in war times, you know, people think stability. the hungarian prime minister always likes to position himself as, as, as a very strong leader who can defend hungary and who can defend hungarians or bands . ukrainian neighbors says hungary should be helping their fight. ultimately, victor, listen, victor, do you know what's happening in maria? pull mothers and children dying, gone look at the shoes on the key side of the danube. zalinski is referring to this memorial in budapest, thousands of jewish families were lined up and shot by fascist during the 2nd world war. their bodies falling into the river danube. their shoes left behind. andrew simmons, al jazeera, budapest to have for you on the program. in

12:35 am
canada very poorly. we're going daughter. the queen may be there, kissed her tony care. so the deplorable behavior of those members of the catholic church, i asked to given us from god. and i would like to tell you from the bottom of my heart, that i am very pained and i joined my brother bishop from canada in apologizing to you. pope francis said he felt shame for the abuse indigenous children suffered in canada, residential schools. he said he hoped to visit canada in july between 1831 in 1996. around 850000 indigenous children were taken from their homes and communities stripped of their languages and customs. many were raped and abused, and church ran schools for a truth and reconciliation commission in 2015, called a cultural genocide. for years. indigenous canadians have been calling on the church to apologize. the movement gained momentum last year when the remains of
12:36 am
$215.00 children were found at the sight of a former residential school in western canada to morrow. and it will be the 1st day of reconciliation, not only with ourselves, with our families and communities, but with our neighbors. and indeed, with all of canada, there's work requires full participation from all parties. the reason there is that we're all there is in there together. and will not happen overnight. the delegates spoke, you said there's still a long way to go to teach true reconciliation. at the moment after francis issues apology come to saint peter's square and celebrate the moment the work will continue. they say some who traveled to rome are former students of the schools
12:37 am
themselves. the pain and suffering is very real for them. many delegates are calling for more action from the church. they want indigenous artifacts kept in the vatican museum, returned and documents from the schools that might reveal other secrets buried in the past. adam rainy i'll just 0 back and kitty. so joining us now from the western canadian says here victoria is steve c told is a member of the panella quit tribe who is forced to attend the indigenous residential school on cooper island just outside the city. this was back in the 19 seventy's. so steve, if i can start by asking you about your thoughts and emotions, is the pope delivered that apology. well, i'll be honest. who was. ready was something that was very unexpected. i've been watching the delegation through the week and had heard no indications
12:38 am
of an apology. i think when i woke up this morning and went through my new cycle of articles and was surprised to see that the pope had made the apology, i think that was probably the 1st i heard. and that was certainly this morning here in b. c. time, western canada you know how, how did it make me feel? i think there was a little bit of, of angst, anxiety, surprise for sure. it's something that i think. ready lot of people never really expected. we know the delegation of indigenous peoples from canada that have gone there. i've been pushing. ready for this type of apology from, from this is the tuition and it's a welcome 1st step of many to come. and you say it's a welcome 1st step. tell me. what more would you like to see? well, words, you know, words are words. we like to see auction,
12:39 am
i think any person would in this particular situation you know, coming to canada, i think is the next step. busy you know, and i'm one of many of thousands that have attended and we all have different views on how you know his apology, whether it came or not would make a difference in one's life. for me not, i was really waiting for it. i don't think it'll affect me more or less, but i know a lot of my fellow people. ready who attended survivors? the apology means a lot and i know for the people that are attending within the delegation needs a lot. so i think a visit across canada and seeking, you know, we use the term reconciliation quite a bit here in canada. but i think the reconciliation part needs to come from the church. and steve, you as you were saying, you survived the coup island residential school. what can you tell
12:40 am

12:49 am
qualifying campaign. now also in that group african champion synagogue, as well as the netherlands. now, it's difficult to know what to expect from the dutch cutter might say, well, in 1974, 1978 and 2010. the dutch reached the woke up final, but at the same time, in 2018 in russia, the netherlands weren't even they didn't qualify and they didn't qualify 420162020 either. as far as the european championships are concerned. talk about a group of death. well, may be argentina, mexico and poland might be that group of it. other than that is not really a group where you would say, well, this team is probably not going to make it because the other 2 teams, or just too difficult, that's obviously outside of the meadows. now, i want to talk about a politically charged fixture. iran and the united states of america probably doesn't get any bigger med in terms of politics. but these 2 teams are got a little bit of history that played each other at france, $98.00 and iran, one medication. the teams promoted piece in the aftermath of the fixture. but something else you talk about politics is affect the ukraine could still qualify
12:50 am
for this woke up there one of 3 teams that haven't yet secured. they place at the tournament. and if they do qualify for the world cup by beating scotland and by beating whales, they will take their place alongside iran and the united states of america by the way, england old. so in that group, i think what we've done well is focus on our group how to get out and route and go from there. and that will be the same mentality now in terms of preparing and hold on to approach to around 2000 guests attended the drawing, cleaning some of the biggest names in wild football, joanna gaz ross got watched it all unfold after months of qualifying matches, this was the moment football fans around the world, we're waiting for to find out who their country would play in the opening games of this year's world cup and cattle was keen to show fans what they could expect. at the 1st edition of this tournament, to be held in the middle east,

each other at the group stage. germany ha, spain and germany were drawn in group ease of thought, i would is only for the next few days, all those matches will be poured over in detail by the teams who are qualified, and the fans who follow them. so now that the great been drawn out, there's a real sense of excitement here and so ha, that off to 12 years of preparation and build up the 1st middle east. well cup is getting very real and di trying to get raska. i'll just read though. the law for wild cups, if we one by european themes and defending champions from head to cut the tournament favorites for each has more from paris. here at the plus le concord in paris, his wife friends ended that world cup trophy parade in 2018. and having seen the teams that they'll face in capital in the group stage, they might be confident of bringing back the trophy here again. but they will be
12:53 am
wary. last year, the europe in championships, they play switzerland in the last 16 with 31 up and ended up being knocked out by the switch. that could be the wakeup call. they need, they will be wary of underestimating anyone as they go in defense of that title. now there is always a group at the world cup that no t wants to be and this time round. that's a group, a, to european themes potentially in peril. in this group, germany and spain drawn together against one of the strongest teams in asian football history, japan and then either costa rica or use and the much between germany and spain will be really the ones who are watching these great stages in capital. it could mean an early exit for either the 20 time world champion, spain, or the 2014 world champion, germany. now potentially threats and using group h for another european joint, portugal of that true footballing joint, christiane i. rinaldo,
12:54 am
they've been drawn against going to south korea and europe. why not christiane, or aloe? coming to the end of his career, he won the european championship here in paris in 2060 with portugal. can he and his story career with a world cup victory in castle? let's take a look now at how the african team fat is andy richardson and our world cup studio . sorry, the world draw is now completely function a little bit. and what's happened to the 5 african seems that are going to be here in catholic schools. right. rich congregation is with me. now. where are the standouts from the drawers far as you're concerned? well, obviously you have think about the african champion synagogue, i think that they have a federal not just because in the same group we've gotta, but i think when you think about, you know, the netherlands, it's a bit of a fair deal for them as compared to what they had at the 2018 edition in russia just then thinking about the rest of it. god. now with your guy and portugal and
12:55 am
south korea. that's very tough for ghana, but i do, i trust him to do a good job. i think his one that we've seen, you know, through the qualifiers, introduce a couple of young faces and maybe if i had some door and lump to decide to play for ghana, that could give them a good dimension as a team. now, of course, no teams in 2018 from africa made it infinite to the knockout stages. who do you think from the teams here? going to do that this time around? i think center have a good chance festival. but then i also think that jack cameroon, could come out of that group if they get a good results against switzerland. and let's see what they can do against those 2 teams are not really teams that come in and should be scared of leads to be tough to have the number one rock team enough in the world right now. brazil will also have a. busy degree, but we go by song i think has his work cut out those 3. yes, tunisia have never come out of the group stages. well kept so i don't think this is
12:56 am
going to be the 1st time. it's so so very tough for them. when you look at the drew that they've been given at moral co, it's tough. they have kind of belgium and croatia, karnicia the you know, finally from 2018. of course a lot has changed between now and in belgium have been number one ranked in a couple of the last years. maybe i guess kind of they can do something on that. so his fault for now is back to marry. i'm in london. oh jam a thank you very much. well, i'll be more on that later on in the next program. the welcome join of course, everything else following as well. i will be back in a couple of minutes at 2200 g m t to stay with us 5. ah aah!
