7:16 am
a shannon i'm summit coincides with the movement of thousands of migrants heading north through mexico towards the u. s. many from venezuela central america, and eastern ukrainian city of sabera donnette skus, now mostly under the control of russian forces after weeks of fighting. but the governor abena, hans christian says the cities industrial zone is still held by ukrainian troops. said yeah, guy day says battles continue on the streets and accused russian forces of destroying many buildings. satellite imagery from maxwell technologies shows significant damage, and so there are done yet and a neighboring city. even though the niche, kiev added on and has remained the epicenter of fighting the bars at the end of the $100.00 and 5th day of the log scale war, we are defending our position and inflicting of the picnic and losses on the enemy
7:17 am
. the 1st is very dread told and difficult to fight perhaps, nor is one of the most difficult battle during these will. i am thankful to each and every one who is defending in this direction. to a great extent, the fate of the bus is being decided there would now mean all the crane says russia is demanding unreasonable conditions to allow grain exports. turkey has hosted the russian foreign minister for talks on resuming shipments of grain. trump ukrainian ports and restarting store piece talks. ukraine is one of the world's biggest export, as in many countries depends on it for their food supplies. so the elaborate says russia is happy for ships to sail freely. as soon as ukraine, the mines, the black sea on the western sanctions are ended. kristin for me, looks at un efforts to help strike a deal on ukraine's ports. the secretary general has been attempting to help broker a deal between russia and ukraine to bring more grand and fertilizer to market.
7:18 am
noting that the number of severely food and secure people in the world has more than doubled in the last 2 years. at 1st it was coded, and now it is the conflict as well. the fact that so much ukrainian grain remain stuck in silos, unable to leave port. it's not just food prices that are going up, it's also fertilizer and fuel prices as well. un is warning that more than half of the developing world is in depth, the stress, but even rich countries are feeling the pinch. now at a time when they're being asked to contribute more humanitarian assistance. i think western diplomats are worried that the global coalition of countries that originally condemned russia's aggression will fragment. and we're definitely seeing arab countries and african countries tending to step back and avoid condemning russia now because they are very concerned about what the conflict means for that. recall to me there's also
7:19 am
a lot of concern that western aid is going to dry up because a money is being diverted to ukraine. and in some countries, these economic factors could actually lead to social unrest. now, russia's blamed sanctions for the price increases. the west points out that there are no sanctions on food or fertilizer sedans, military units, and started direct talks and political parties. if the 1st such meetings since the army sees power last october, but important pro democracy leaders refuse to participate. i see the morgan reports from cotton sudanese, political parties, and the army are coming together for talks. they haven't done this since the military took power 8 months ago. the participants say they want to end the political impasse created by the takeover, which has left for them without a fully functioning government. and in political and economic turmoil, the united nations, the african union, and the regional body i got are facilitating the talks. or aim of this dialogue is
7:20 am
to reach a consensus on the constitutional arrangements. agree on a prime minister, prepare for elections. the tripartite mechanism is only a facilitator. it's up to the sudanese who are the stakeholders to decide on the outcome. the dance transitional period was the real to when the military took power last october. it dissolved a 2 year government that was meant to lead to down to democracy after 3 decades of one man rule under president martin bashir. it also sideline, the political coalition known as the forces of freedom and change with home it had signed a perishing agreement. after she was forced out because she was absent in wednesdays, talk's a group which split from it and had called for the military to take over attended. we've participated in this session to agree on how the transition should be and complete the transition period as what is prepare for elections. it is very important. we will also talk about how to form a government to lead during the remaining transitional period and implement the piece deal signed. we will decide dine anyone and hope those who are not attending
7:21 am
will join. prior to the start of the talks, the head of the army issued a statement of unity describing it as a historic opportunity to achieve the demands of the nice people walkable new career. not 35. i request the consent component to respond to this dialogue and not stand obstacle and the part of democratic change on transition. the people in the country does have to be put above our differences. and we should place the unity and security of the country above political and personal desire. alicia, i know, but the forces of freedom and change coalition is not the only that's chosen, not to attend the group. so as resistance time, it's ease which have been organizing regular protests for months are also absent from these talks. they've been vocal in their opposition to negotiate or compromise . since the military took over last year. they were more protests on wednesday against the military's rule. more than a 100 people have been killed in anti military demonstrations and hundreds of others have been wounded since the takeover. those behind the protests said only

he visited democratic republic of congo for the 1st time brought back a mosque, one of thousands of artifact lifted by the colonialists. he said it's on a permanent loan from the belgian museum. some conquer liza fall short of making up for the path. so the atrocity of the red rubber, the weeping, the respected munition suffer by our system. i will funding fathers and mothers should not become a case that goes unnoticed because they refused to formally apologize for president is a caddy. it brings some international credibility. he took office 2 and a half years ago after elections that leaked, documents appeared to show were rigged, belgium's prime minister who's also on the visit. it was critical at a time. relations have since improved about the walker. paula, if you read them on kathy google, i believe that for the democratic republic of congo, and i have always said this, the gateway to europe. and i am talking about diplomatic and political europe
