there and trying to restore stability under the so called aston our peace process vessel sada has this update turan, that is the 1st or international wizard of that. we let them or pretend outside of a former asset of russia and former soviet republic, so that today he's going to meet a turkish present, which of type ab wanting to run. and then or so he's going to meet the rainy president, the brian bracey, and also the iranian supreme leader aaliyah. how many so doing his talks or meeting with their present add on of turkey at the ukraine and particularly that the grain export from ukraine is going to be at the table. so there has been several phone calls between the turkish and the russian leaders. how to, to, to pay away at the, to unload the ukrainian grain to be export through to export the through them black sea. and to be taken to a stumble in a center. and therefore me stumble to the international market. so the experts and

the officials that they have talked to, they told me that, that regarding the technicalities, both sides have an agreement on a preliminary as to kim. but now it's time for a political decision. a political decision is needed really to materialize this plan. so today we will see that during the ab one and put in meeting, we'll see whether this political decision is going to be there and whether it's going to be announced and let the ukrainian grain to be exported through the blacks . it's quite important to secure the global food supply. adam targeted by as co founder and ceo of the center for applied research and partnership with the orient, which is also known as capo. he says, strong alliance is crucial for russia, which is under pressure from sanctions. there are shifting alignments, depending on the global context on the regional context. and if we now consider that russia faces an unprecedented sanctions regime, that is even broader than the one that iran is under. then, of course,

suddenly there is this new avenue of cooperating in how to circumvent sanctions cooperating in how to basically secure iranian russian trade. there are now a reports that the rule is now an official currency that the iranian market is taking care of. or in fact, we're dealing with so there are reactions to this adjustment to this for economic survival in times of sanctions. i mean, we, the war in ukraine and the situation that we have now since the beginning of this year really is a challenge to energy security on the one hand, but also food security on the other hand. so you can, we can think of all state leaders trying on the one hand to give in to some of the demands of russia, right. at the same time, securing some wheat imports. there have been reports, i don't know the numbers, but there have been some reports that there is, for example,

an arrangement between iran and russia on wheat. we heard from the report of your correspondent that there has also been an agreement in the oil sector in the energy sector. so turnkey will do the same truck. you will also seek to find some ways to secure that it's demands. what at the same time giving in to some of the russian demands the u. k is recorded. it's hard to stay ever with the mercury hitting 40.2 degrees at heathrow airport. the sweltering weather has disrupted travel health care and schools across the country. most of england is under a red warning for heat extreme heat, which means there's a danger of death even for healthy people who are rece has more from the british capital. this really doesn't feel like london at all the temperature here by how a bridge across from the tower of london. currently at about $39.00 degrees celsius . i've already already a record before today. as you say, 40.2 degrees celsius, registered heathrow,

breaking up 40 degree barrier for the 1st time. you know, the u. k. just isn't built for this. transport is struggling with trains cancelled or running very slow speeds due to the tracks, not being out her not being able to handle these temperatures, some of the trucks buckling. indeed, hospitals struggling as well. surgeries being cancelled just because the hospitals a too old and they come, they can handle this hated to help inside the hospitals. you know, people in the u. k. built for 5 of as health warnings for people in elderly age bracket. children as well. people with sicknesses, people are more prone to the hydration heat stroke and he hates exhaustion. the world health organization has been advising people to get at least one or 2 hours in air conditioning every day if possible. that's simply not possible for some of the people we've met today in some of the poor areas of this barbara of london and

housing estates that, that a rundown, poorly ventilated flaps. there is simply no way for them to go to cool down as some forecast is say that the u. k is among the top to a one percent of places for temperatures in the globe this time and the large pulse of western europe a scorching heat way. reco temperature is raising wildfires, risking lives and threatening homes. spain is one of the worst countries firefighters. there are battling dozens of blazes which are forced thousands of people to flee their homes. same bathroom has both the northwest region of the mora, these humble little ponds in the middle of the hills in this part of northwest spain have become significant parts of the fire rescue workers efforts. englewood just sticks required to try to stop these wildfires that raged across this region. helicopters are coming down with

now we're down to this one helicopter with other air units mobilized to fight fires on the other side of this valley. so it, these reservoirs become significant parts of the fire rescue workers efforts to try

to contain the fires that are happening in these hills normally used for pooling water for surrounding agriculture for the surrounding farms. now they are used to try to save those farms from being engulfed by these wild fires. burgess, the crews in southwest france of battle to contain large forest fires. their blaze is near the city of bordeaux, already torn through nearly 20000. hector has of land fan by strong winds or than 30000 people have been evacuated since the fire started a week ago. natasha butler has more paris. still a very hot day in france concerning feeling. i hear in paris as those temperatures climb probably see people behind me there on kathy terrace as though trying to enjoy the summer. despite the intense heat, it's going to be hot as to day in the north of the country. i denise in the west of the country, temperatures have dropped by nearly 10 degrees in some areas. and that of course is

a great news for the 5 fighters in the southwest and that around a region where they've been battling huge wildfires. now a for a week, those lower temperatures, the sun, you gotta make the situation easier, hopefully, even though there are still a strong winds in those areas. but we are expecting perhaps even a little bit of a rain in that area. so some responses i said for the emergency services here. nevertheless, the big picture is that the french government is actually downgraded its heat. were he's waive alerts from red to orange. that is because we're really moving through the peak of this heat wave at this time. this is of course, the 2nd heat wave we've had in a recent weeks assign the se, climate change activists that are these heat waves are becoming more frequent or more intense. this is about climate change and they say a lot has to be done to try and diminish the impact of climate change which was living for so long as parliament has announced. the 3 candidates nominated to become the next president. the include in trim leader and former prime minister ronald vick from a singer ill face, a former education minister, and

a left us leader. the final votes expected on wednesday. protest as have rallied on the capital there to condemn rick from a sing as presidential bid. they see him as one of the faces of sir, like his worst economic crisis and decades. the next president will finish the term of go to buy a roger pack, sir, who fled to singapore last week. la fernandez, was more from colombo, the kind of protest you're seeing behind me is the increasing sort of voices was about ronald vicar missing his candidacy. and there's a lot of opposition to that in parliament today. we saw that form a process where nominations were handed over to the secretary general of parliament . now there were 4 that were named and expected, but just before the nominations were handed over, we heard that the opposition leader was withdrawing from the rest. the reason he said was that he and his party, the s g b, had decided to support the candidacy of dallas, alabama. alabama is basically

a fairly senior politician, part of the sort of parent party that then evolved into the roger box that kind of faction lead s l p. p. or dallas. i sort of was sideline due to the time of the roger boxes. he's, he's not obviously, as a cat is magic as mine that i did park so as forceful. but he does have a silent support. what we're hearing from the sergeant ray mendoza. cam is that the reason for him we're drawing is that there is an agreement that has been reached between sergeant ray with us in dallas, alabama, basically that such a grandmother will back. i'll happy rumors bid for presidency on the basis that when, if and when he becomes president, he would then call on sergeant bremar dasa to form a government and make him prime minister. meanwhile, the acting president, runner, vicar massena, are basically expects that support of the s l b p. but all is not are sort of well

there either. so this is the background in which that election in parliament will take place on wednesday. still ahead on al jazeera and you report offers oblique assessment of the say to the environment in australia. ah, ah, the journey has begun the fee for wold copies on its way to a castle book. your travel package today. what is still snowing in the chilean and these norway down through patagonia, which is maybe not a big surprise, but the heavy snow has been causing problems. it's not as far north as it was now. so we are concentrating brady rocks for the self suddenly gets across of the arjun time. so mostly because of that wind direction you back in the sunshine on especially cold either the few shall we seen in the southeast of brazil. they're

not particularly big in the next few days. there's a bit of a gap then rain free gap into the pickup. again, that's i think the potential once more for flash flooding or even landslides in some parts of columbia, maybe sudden venezuela. you see the west, there's looking with the orange tops, potentially dodgy as well. panama costa rica should be where at this time you, they are at the mexican coast, though sig, a few shall, isn't as bad as it was about a week ago, but they are, they're all the same. how about us rather, more dramatic. we saw flash flooding in new jersey in new york from that closet went through. and generally speaking, everywhere is hotter than it should be. the real heat has been in texas was spread through the plains. and you can see that generates big storm a lot further. often you might expect and there they are on tuesday or wednesday, they just keep going. east was the heat, build the head, humid heat, and it's still unbearably dry. in california, official airline of the journey discovered

a world of difference determination. i'm talking about when we am with freedom, with corruption and compassion, al jazeera world, a selection of the best films from across our network of channels. ah ah, you're watching out is era remind of our top stories this our russian president vladimir putin has just touched down to rob to take part in

a summit that's being overshadowed by the fallout from the war. and ukraine talks with iran, president abraham, racy and turkish liter, wretched time, otto on a meant to focus on syria, u. k. as recorded, it's hottest i ever with mercury heating 40.2 degrees at heathrow airport. the sweltering weather has disrupted travel health care and schools across the country . for lancaster, parliament has announced the 3 candidates, so mandated to become the next president include interim leader and a former prime minister, ronald vick from a single face of former education minister and left his leader. final vote is expected. on wednesday, the british conservatives have eliminated another candidate to replace bois johnson as prime minister, narrowing the field down to 3. let's get more. this with jonah whole who's in london, of course the all important committee of back bench m. p. 's. the 1922 committee has spoken. what they said, jenna. that's right. in the last few minutes,

that field has been whittle down from 4 to 3, as you say to break it down for you still in the race is former chancellor ratio soon not. he's been the most popular among m p 's. since the start, he is still the most popular. he hasn't managed as had been anticipated, reaching the sort of benchmark of $120.00 votes that would have automatically guaranteed him a place in the runoff is increased. his tally by 3 to 118. that means he has to contest wednesday's final knockout ballot. but bad news for richey soon act is some new opinion polling out polling members of the conservative party, who of course will have the final say in an election on the final 2 candidates later in the summer with a prime minister to be announced on september. the 5th that polling suggests that richie su neck, although he is assured of being in the final 2 will be beaten, would be beaten by any one of these other candidates. so bad news for the former

chancellor, there can be bad enough. the one of the 2 figures on the right of the party has dropped out of the race. as a result of this vote, she scored the lowest number of votes that wasn't entirely an expected leaves. the other big candidate on the right, the foreign secretary list trust in 3rd place will be increased totally by the greatest number of all 15 to 86. and in 2nd place, there are less well known quantity of international trade minister, penny morton, too, is looking like the only sort of change candidate here less tainted by association with boris johnson. and the scandal of recent months she up tend to 90 to the big question. for wednesdays. balance is which of those 2 trusts or more and will make it through to face ratio soon? barring unexpected developments and weather can be bad. knox votes on the right of the party. we'll break for liz trust pushing the foreign secretary across the line . and john,

never mind is where we go from here in terms of actually picking britton's next pm . well, after wednesday, we'll be down to 2 candidates. as i said, all most assured to see a chancellor former jossla soon back in the running there, and either truss or morrant facing him. there will be 2 months sir, now with us or others, i believe on about 6 weeks or so through the latter part of the summer of campaigning. it. ready before conservative members across the country get to decide in an election on those final 2. and we expect an announcement on september the 5th when the new leader of the conservative party. but of course, more importantly, the new prime minister of this country is made no journal hall in london. many thanks. the ear says it's purring for all scenarios regarding gas flows, including a possible supply caught from russia, is feared. moscow may not restart the north stream pipeline, which was shut down for maintenance this month to, to end on thursday. in

a crisis situation, e member states would be obliged to help each other by providing gas and exchanging information on top of the threats to gas supplies. there's also the increase in global oil prices. u. s. president joe biden return from a trip to saudi arabia over the weekend without a firm pledge from re add to produce more crew to which would help lower oil prices . the saudi foreign minister says the issue isn't with supply, but rather a lack of refining capacity. last year, the numbers of refineries, the close lead to a dropping global capacity for the 1st time in 30 years. but mega refineries in saudi arabia, kuwait and china are expected to come on line later this year. we don't see a lack of oil in the market. there is a lack of refining capacity, which is also an issue. so we need to invest more in refining capacity. and that's, that's a policy decision that the countries, especially consuming countries, need to make it to ensure that there is enough capacity to refuse to find the oil

that is available. the rush is an integral part of opec plus and the without corporation in opec plus, as a collective, it would be impossible to properly insure an adequate supplies of oil to the international and markets and the needs of energy. so when nigeria is the 6 largest oil producer in the world, and now it's national petroleum corporation, has become a commercial company. the move comes almost a year after parliament pass legislation to overhaul the sector. anti corruption, campaigners of long asked for the firm to be more transparent, will to get more on the transition, let speak to to me, pray, silver, he's nigerian minister of state for petroleum resources. he joins us from a boucher welcome to the show. oh, of course nigeria has huge or reserves since 10th, and the world is the 6th largest exporter. of course, as a massive crisis when it comes to how much oil is readily available to some of the

world's biggest economies. how will nigeria help these shortfalls? ah, well i think that is a big problem is a big question for, for nigeria also for us. oh, reserves to production ratio. as b b b been a big concern or we have booked reserves of almost 40000000000 barrels. but i still produce in sometimes just little above 1000000 barrels. now it's not so it's not something we're we're, we're happy with and we're doing everything to ensure that we increase our production is at least to be able to face or meet our opec quarter. and then maybe to discuss how we can even increase that. one of the things we're trying to do now is to see how we can get an embassy to be a commercial entity. because before now an empty, she was say more or less

a government department and they couldn't really go. i had to reset the fonts that didn't needed to invest. i'm with the p, i is not passion for about 20 years. there was a lot of hesitancy on the part of investors as well. so for a long time, there was no investment in the oil sector. and of course the oil off today is the investment of yesterday or so for some time there was no vestments or we are now beginning to i sprinted, declining production. so we want to as shaw our day sir, production in the future. i assure therefore that dallas investments for the production in the future, and that's where we have now a given an embassy. so to say are they are independent. so to become a commercial company, or to be able to raise fonts and invest in the sector and produce more oil. what it would, he may confer these comments from saudis, oil minister, suggesting that the problem isn't say, with a shortfall of oil per se. but to rather in an ability to refine the oil

well, yeah, the problem would feel that the market as well supplied so far, we really don't think that that is the lack of supply in the market in spite of the fact that we as a country have a problem, but of course the saudis and or the produce as a prediction and keeping the markets there well supplied. unfortunately, of course, finding capacity issue. even in nyja, of course we have that problem. we don't have any form of refining going on here at the moment. we have done go to refinery. that is likely to, for most shame or maybe the rehabilitation of what you find out. he's also ongoing that i actually would say that the minister was right. if you said that day,

some issue of a couple refining capacity, not necessarily an issue of supply and for, for what, for america we sometimes if, if they have issues of product in america, they should try and see how they can also rely on their own data. find product of exports in some of the products side by side america. if they, if they utilize refined products enough in america, i'm sure it's going to have to use the problem. i'm not trying to tell me what to do, but i think that did of self can actually look in words and see what the solution what the solution is. but for us, i believe that as opec, we believe that the global market as well supplied and talking about pack. and what you mentioned does disappointing output in terms of nigeria. historically, when it comes to oil, opec has said the niger continues to struggle to meet the countries own allocated

quote, to $1700000.00 barrels a day. can you explain the reason why nigeria isn't fulfilling is potential i said it before. i b oil off today. i isd investment of yesterday 1st. and as we know, a lack of investment into sector over the years, because we've been struggling to pass a law for 20 years. and there was a lot of hesitancy or on the part of investors to learn to invest se, individualization where they are not sure where the process of changing the laws. and that process was taking too long. so it was a, it's, it's actually understandable. but in addition to this, or we also have very some security issues, are there oil theft issues or which are we're trying to tackle? and of course i did to the problem of course with 19 with gov. 19. a lot of

production was shot him because there were only dead to her to cut back up production the, you know, the or world market was there was at that time will vash, applied, and opec had to make while a force caught back either in the process were caught back up. unfortunately, we've not been able to bring back a lot of that production as required. so we have, is it on believe a combination of various issues face dis, shots in wells that we have not been able to bring back to production according to security issues. and of course, or the lack of investment there of india a recent past. but we expect that with the a p a now the issue of the lack of investment will be surmounted and we are tackling the issue of her, of security as well. i came to me, pray, silva, nigeria minister, state for petroleum resources. many thanks. now the number of people known to have died after a boat capsized in central pakistan has more than double to 50 local governments.

as the vessel was overloaded when it sank in a river in setting about district, most of the passengers were women and children going to a wedding. australia's environment is in a poor state and getting worse the say to the environment. the port found climate change related weather events are compounding an ecosystem already in trouble. sarah clark reports and brisbin already this year, sydney and much of new south wales have been devastated by torrential rain and floods. the forecast is more of the same with the latest state of the environment report declaring that extreme weather events like this are becoming the new norm. in the last 5 years, we've gotten into the impact of extreme events such as storms, wild fires, and very large bleaching away events caused by heat waves. sy, clones droughts and floods, and they have impacted almost every square inch of australia. the 2000 paid

scientific document paints a grim picture of australia's ecosystems for marine environments to the days it land. an ocean. temperatures are on the rise, and australia has lost more memo species than any other continent. we name are 40 teams or, and sporting teams after a showing animals. we really love our wildlife in australia, so unique the world that we are destroying their homes. and the thing we can do to protect them is to protect their high and protect their habitats. the scientific gordon, so pollution mining, invasive species and climate change are to blame. this solution is a drastic reduction in carbon emissions as well as stronger national environment laws and a federal regulator to enforce them. the started, the environment report is compiled every 5 years. the last 4 had painted a grim picture. the past reports have predicted the future impacts of climate change is lighter scientific assessment is recording extensive damage that's happening now. responding to the report,

australia newly elected government announced plans to protect 30 percent of the countries landon oceans by 2030. what the environment really name is changed system. that's the message from the samuel review. that's the message from the state of the environment report. without structural change will be resigning ourselves to another decade if failure without the tools we need to arrest our decline. another decade, side to say is too late. 0, clock out a 0 brisbin australia. ah, this is al jazeera and these are the top stories. russian president vladimir putin has touched down and turan to take part in the summit that's being overshadowed by the fall out from the war. and ukraine talked to the rance president abraham racy and to.
