low and welcome to the new south. well, ukrainian forces, still holding out in the eastern city of sierra dani ask a 100 days after russia invaded its neighbour. or is it remains zalinski has praised ukrainian resistance and promised victory in video a message to his people. there are reports of st by street fighting in savannah. donnie at 80 percent of the city is now under moscow's control. if so far on yet, and may bring less chance. is it too big cities? if there was a full rush, you would hold all of the eastern la hans province, which would be the biggest gain off to pulling back from the capital in march. but she cried in troops are already in europe training to operate advanced missile systems pledged this week by the us and britain key hopes these will change the
12:03 am
course of the war. meanwhile, the african union has told russia the continent all the victims of ukraine's invasion of on an economic level chairman, mikey, so edge present idea to tend to take into account suffering from food shortages caused by moscow's military actions. same bas raleigh has more now from geez. there's 2 ways to look at the math here for resisting rushes intervention in their country. it is cost the country of ukraine, 20 percent of its territory on the other side of it is that ukraine, 100 days later, is still in this fight. now we have to remember that russia was intending to take even a matter of days, and the best experts in the world estimated that after keep the rest of ukraine would follow in a matter of weeks, as russia continued to slowly digest ukrainian territory. something it's been doing for years, but the fact that the country is still standing isn't it,
12:04 am
is in and of itself, a major victory in this conflict. and that is exactly the point that ukraine's president made to mark this day. the leader of the faction is here, the head of the president's office is here. the prime minister mahal is here. potter lack is here. the president is here. our teams much bigger. the armed forces of ukraine here. most importantly, our people are here. the people of our state are here. we've been defending our state for 100 days. victory for laurie to ukraine. strong words they're from ukraine's top comedian turned president, turned war time commander in chief and it really mirrors the same things you said 99 days ago. at the start of this invasion at the start of this war, he wanted to make the point that the country's leaders, given the opportunity to leave, have not left the country's leaders are still here and this fight will go on. now there is no se putting
12:05 am
a spin on what is happening in the east of the country. russian forces have in the last few weeks for about a month or so, consolidated their forces in the east of the country. they've made tactical retreats from in and around keith and they are now in the east and the war. there is truly devastating, and the horrors of that conflict are being lived by those being taken into russian occupation as the russian advance continues. but when you crania is in places like even those parts of the country that are away from the battlefront, say that life must go on, that life must move forward that there must be something to look forward to. what we've seen here in the capital key was a return to a kind of normalcy. we've seen businesses reopen. people have been moving back to the city. those have fled in the early days of the conflict. and there are people back out onto the streets. and what you craniums here tell us is they may not be on the front line, but simply returning to a certain kind of normal. that is the antithesis to what vladimir putin, the vision for this country is. and that in and of itself will return, will,
12:06 am
will continue, and that will be against russia's aggression. it continued active, ukrainian defiance members of ukraine to the foreign legion of arrived in spirit on the canal and are preparing to join the battle slave driven into the town, assess damage instead of military equipment. in the past few weeks, russia has put troops into the small factory if they both sides believe to suffer. punishing losses in fierce fighting bonds. officials say quite as recaptured 20 percent of last territory in the 50. meanwhile, in hard kiva, a timber plant was destroyed by a missile strike on friday. no casualties reported the crane. second largest city has been relatively quiet since forces regained territory and pushed back russian troops. earlier this month, keep suffered heavy bombardment from the start of russia invasion, which left the city. a wasteland of ruined buildings.
12:07 am
julius now from ukraine is alexander rodney and ski. he is an advisor to the president going to miss lansky. he's also an assistant professor of economics at cambridge university. thank you for taking the time to speak to us. is russia gaining strength in east in ukraine? world? she was like slowly they are trying to adopt a strategy that i've learned from their initial mistakes that we saw that the on spent of the invasion when they move towards can you open them? they have to treat the us having dr. my heavy blow. so they've learned from these mistakes, they're trying to adapt their strategies. and what we're seeing now is a very slow advance towards lucy chunks or the other parts of the dorm bus area. but as we year they but she kind of failing again. so it is true that they've managed to gain some ground today. we've managed to push them back again around
12:08 am
them. so it doesn't seem like it's a real victory for them yet. and it's going to take a lot of time if they really want to make sure or somehow capture all of the don't bus, that's going to be very hard cost them. but they already control more than 90 percent of the province of land. so once they take the 2 main cities that are done yet, can less chance they will control the entire province. that's only a matter of time, isn't it? well, it's hard to say, maybe we're gonna turn the tide somehow and push them back again. you can really say that with certainty, but it is a risk, obviously, like you say, lance region that's almost fully occupied by the russians not, but that is still far from capturing all of the don bus, which they've set out to do, are essentially declared us their ultimate goal, because remember there's still 2 donetta region which half of which we basically control. still that's going to take them a lot of time to even capture and they might get pushed back even in the hans. why do you say that? well, because we are getting your weapon,
12:09 am
we've just lost mr. jones key for a few moments, cause he's joining us from ukraine. you can understand that communications are not very straightforward, but nonetheless, he's just giving us a sense of how the battle is going in the eastern part of ukraine. where the russians of course, are making a bit to conquer all of the east and dumbass region. though the ukrainians claim to have taken back some territory in the past 24 hours. and yes, mr. rodzinski, we lost you for a few seconds that but you would just telling us that about how russian gates could possibly be reversed by ukrainian fighters. that's right. so we're also adopting our strategy and we're also getting the weapons, then it's increasingly hard for the russians to keep up them around, which was never high. so ultimately we will be victorious. there's no question
12:10 am
about the question is, what will it cost? how many more lives will be lost? that's the only question. would you compromise on east and ukraine if it would bring the war to an end and save lives? well, never because it's not going to save lives. remember we saw what happens to our people when they occupy. we saw them being raved deported. i don't know, but should everything horrendous happening to them when they're under to patient? so how can we leave them alone? that's never going to be an option when it would bring the fighting to an end. and that would enable humanitarian supplies to access areas that have been under attack, but also enable the safe, the safest way sion of those people who are in the areas under russian control. that is an illusion. they're not going to be evacuated. we saw what happens with them, very deported somewhere to russia. they're taken to the creation camps that tortured the rate. so that's not an option for us. we have to reestablish or control over the whole of our territory of the occupied areas. but
12:11 am
because that's what our people want and are waiting for in the occupied in and what if the west were to press you to reach negotiated settlement that would include conceding eastern territory to russia, much of which is already under that control. well, the west, i don't think that we're going to do that and, and if the west is contemplating anything like that. and so with russia, maybe they should start crushing russia and to pulling back their troops, liberating or people the blocking the black sea. so such as such that there is no food crisis and no hunger crisis is nafrica. maybe that's the place to start. if and when this war and we have seen, not any civilians lose their lives, but cities have been raised to the ground. how difficult and costly as reconstruction going to be very difficult. they cost the current estimates of the, the direct and indirect costs taken together from the war already, somewhere between $600000000000.00 and
12:12 am
a trillion dollars. now that's everything direct and indirect. in other words, not just the infrastructure damage, which is about a $100000000000.00, maybe but, but also everything that has been lost, the production, the output, everything that would have been produced and isn't going to be produced. so that's going to take years to rebuild. we will need a marshall plan for ukraine, which we're currently trying to already establish and negotiate with our partners. it wouldn't, it will entail hundreds of billions of $1.00 and $8.00. and we will have to basically work on it for years, in order to rebuild our country, stronger and better. nearly 7000000 people of fled ukraine, obviously, people traumatized by what has happened. will they ever feel safe in that country? again, how can you persuade them to return home? well, that's a good question. you're right. i mean, there is about 6000000 people that are, have been forced to pre ukraine in there somewhere in europe. mainly. there is about 3000000 in poland. you know, hundreds of, of thousands and other countries,
12:13 am
we will have to create the incentives for them to return of this thing. but 1st of all, the main issue is ending the war, because nobody really wants to return when there is a risk of escalation, when there is a risk of the return of russia's troops, which we saw what they're going to do. so essentially, that's the 1st step to ending ending the crisis and ending in the humanitarian and the refugee. and then going forward trunk to your question, how can we insure the birth piece of stability that long lasting? well, that will depend on what, what will happen with russia, what we need to make sure that russia transits from the author, italian regime, do something that's more like a mechanic regime or lisa transition towards the top. because clearly they cannot be long lasting peace and real stability and economic prosperity, side by side living with its vision, alexander rod janski's advisor to present or to mere zalinski of ukraine. thank you . thank you. or you and food and agriculture organisation says it, well, food prices have fallen slightly for
12:14 am
a 2nd consecutive month. prices surged off to russia's invasion of ukraine, sparking fears of global hunger crisis. the un agency price index dropped just point 6 percent in may from april, as the prices of dairy products and vegetable oils fell. but prices are still 56.2 percent higher compared to a year ago. both russia and ukraine are major exporters of agricultural goods. we price is a still surging, rising 5.6 percent in may. the u. n. is trying to broke. we're deal with russia to unblock grain exports from ukraine's black seaports in crimea. but president putin insist sanctions on washer must be east 1st. abdul, razor obasi honors the senior food market and list and a former senior economist with united nations food and agriculture organization. he says the query, the ukraine was created, uncertainty around production and supply routes. the biggest expected decline year on year declining production is partly because all crane crane because of the
12:15 am
off the war. so that is the production site. but the problem is unfortunately not just the production, but how crane can get his wheat into the market. as we saw in the last few months, logistical problems, what will make sense? so for preventive, that in spite of the fact that train does have quite a large, a carry over, inventor is been sold to the market. this is one problem. the other aspect is russia itself is going to have a good crop this year. old predictions point to that. but the question is, you know, they have to sell this grain to their customers. and obviously, the combination of many factors is going to make this trade a little bit different from, from the previous year. and this uncertainty adds pressure to the market and makes the whole thing looking a little bit, i would say on settling. and this was predicted, in fact, we were saying few months ago that 2021 season is not as bad as feared, but 20 to 22 to 3 season. which starts now is going to be more worrying,
12:16 am
because we simply don't know how the trade routes will be affected and how supplies from the black sea richness of the world. he was in use our life from london, much more lad. bad to worse, we look wise in both ways struggling to stabilize its economy. aiden fears more job losses. struggling to put food on the table. community kitchen set up across shoreline, co web basic supplies and al, too expensive many and lay transport will have all the action from gay. one of the m, b, a finals. ah, now opposition groups in the democratic republic of congo, calling for the government to cot, diplomatic ties with rwanda, they are urging supporters to continue protest and capital kinshasa demonstrate as a or a wander supported recent attacks by the m 23 rebel group. but as malcolm lab reports,
