1:02 pm
with and in sport. american track saw sydney mclaughlin sets a new world record in the women's 400 meters hurdle. ah, in breaking news, ukraine's military says russia has targeted port infrastructure in the city of odessa, with cruise missiles, a say 2 strikes, hit the black sea port. another 2 was shot down by air defense. it comes a day after both countries signed a deal broken by turkey on the united nations to reopen the ports to resume grain exports. the ukrainian foreign ministry is now cooling on both the u. n. and turkey to make sure russia holds up. it's end of the deal out there corresponded to me also. marty is in odessa. clayton had daddy a lava we saw massage with the naked eye. we're talking about to misses on till now . and we've been able for the 1st time since our out,
1:03 pm
i will here to trace these misses. there were really close just above us. a missile passed through here another passed through there. the camera man is able to show the picture of the smoke from the anti aircraft rockets here on the black sea shore . until this moment we heard for explosions in more than one location here where we are standing one minute before we went on air. we can also hear the silent alarms in the area. they went off right before the ukrainian unto aircraft misses targeted . what it says are roche and rockets, one don't. ok, let's bring up a man to take a look. a mat rather, to take a look at this. so up here, you can see this is odessa. odessa, port is one of the largest ports in the black sea. basin, so it is crucial for ukraine. and of course, the black sea is where these grain exports need to go through to ease the impending global food crisis. you, crane and russia, as we have said, fine deals to allow the exports of grain through the black sea. with turkey, you can see down here as stumble at the bottom,
1:04 pm
which controls the all important boss for us to inspect ships, to ease concerns of russia, about weapons smuggling. we're joining me now from odessa, as hannah cellist, director of security studies program at the security. think tank ukrainian prism. thank you very much for joining us. so you, you heard these explosions or you saw what happened? tell us what you saw. yes, definitely because i've been in my somehow just on the beach. so i saw both the work off the air defense over the russian details. as for now, we already have confirmed for me styles too. we've been targeted by the ukranian counter attack and to unfortunately all fall in odessa support. and you need to understand that support is just in the downtown, in the story called downtown all of this. so it's extremely dangerous from all points of view. and you were absolutely right to that it happened less than 24 hours of the yes to be the grain deal with time. where 3 cranium forests were named and all that support is ronald st. 2,
1:05 pm
others have just 40 kilometers aside. this will russia targeted as far as we know, over the exactly the drain terminal to be and as for me, is real building called the international community. neglecting of that agreement that being signed yesterday? i mean, there's $20000000.00 tons of grain from last year, harvest ready to be shipped out. so how do you think ukraine is likely to respond to this? i mean, it's already said that this is put in, spitting in the face of the un in turkey. what do you think is going to happen next? ukraine is trying since march to exports at new dom amount of the grains to the world's market by landed and railway, but capacities comparing to what we could explore by c, u to the what we can exports by land. it is $1.00 to $5.00. so x one, our problem 1000000 told for a month that's what the boards and the rail found the how far,
1:06 pm
because over the remaining ball on the other neighboring countries are trying to help. so as for now, 1st what we definitely need the official explanations from the side of the russian side and what is even more important. but yesterday the agreement was signed by the ministry over the phone. so they are totally responsible for the yes for the agreement. and for today's nice house, it's not, ukraine is claiming it is russian beside dublin. if you remain on the turkish messiah against support. and we know where it's over to confirmed by the official side that you've been to lever messiah. the russian use a very high, precise side of the knew exactly what they are targeting and why we haven't heard from russia yet. i'll get you to stand by therefore miss she left because i want to take a look what that deal actually wall. so what is so, so a joint turkish and un control center has to be set up in stumble. it will control all the deliveries of grain ukrainian vessels to guide the grain shipments through
1:07 pm
mind was his in and out of port. russia has promised not to attack the cargo ships, did make that promise, and turkey and the u. n. will ex, inspect f o ships. however, because russia is worried that they'll be used to smuggle weapons, that's why they're going to be inspected to the agreement will last 4 months and will be renewed automatically. so should i just do you think that is the the end of that deal then? ah, the ethanol, we hope that no, because we understand that he will be the punch not only against the united nations about also against turkey and turkey invested a lot of effort to make this happen. and also i would like to clarify you a little bit that join sounds very well just you and turkish. russia. representatives also will get there. so russia received, they accept inspection. they cannot claim that they are not allowed to check what is on the ship. the only thing the beast inspections will be happening in turkey, in bus for us. so they are she, they, inspectors will not be allowed to the territorial waters off your crate. but feel that it's quite
1:08 pm
a significant compromise from your premium side as well. now everybody we're talking about in 10 days, the 1st sheep can go, i don't know for where this number of days appeared. but theoretically, we definitely need to see the establishment of the central, the appointment of the inspectors. the think of the route and procedures and the question all the d mining or it leaves the mind, we are sheeps of their search country that is written in the agreements that will accompany the sheep and it is not ukrainian. she is going to be the sheep of any country under any flag. the only thing is that they are coming to 3 ukrainian forts to exports, ukrainian graves and ammonia. it goes to the deal was a little bit wider. it's more about the types of food ammonia because that is for july. all right. hey, thank you very much for your time there. how does she list director of security studies program at the security thing to punk ukrainian prism? well, ukrainian, president,
1:09 pm
the lot of the landscape and russian foreign minister. so gay levels both hailed the brain deal on friday thing would mean positive outcomes for both people in the region and abroad. so these are the incomes of farmers, the entire agricultural sector and the state budget. he's a job, he's a funds for next year sewing. there's a chance here to reduce the seriousness of a food crisis caused by russia and prevented global catastrophe. a famine that could lead to political chaos in many countries, particularly those that help us resume. but here's the few. thanks to the efforts of the russian delegation. it was possible to maintain the comprehensive de politicize nature of the agreement, thereby ensuring the maximum possible movement of grain towards developing countries. russia will continue to be faithful to its obligations in this area. the use of food by the united states and its allies for their geopolitical interests is unacceptable and inhumane. that way near has lifted a ban on rail transport of sanctioned goods into the russian territory of collin
1:10 pm
and grad should state news news agency says the way it began blocking building materials and alcohol bound, cullen and grad in june, citing e sanctions on moscow. last week the block said goods should be allowed through because sanctions only apply to road transit. the restrictions triggered an outcry and threats of retaliation from moscow. fuel stations and for longer have resumed sales under a rationing system. all for a new shipment arrived, motorists and colombo awaken in long queues to fill up their vehicle. petrol and diesel have been in short supply for a month, because the government is running out of foreign currency and can't afford to pay imports. i speak now to michelle fernandez, who joined the slide from colombo. so michelle fuel is finally arriving. a government scheme is in place for handing it out. so is it working well, there are some bumps along the way as you can see
1:11 pm
a behind me. i am out of fuel shed in colombo. now there are people basically that have cured because as a new system in place based on the last digit of the number plate of each maker. whether they because mortar bikes or the trivial taxes. and the government has a basically put into place a system of registration whereby owners put in their ideas the vehicle details and then they're given a unique q r cord. now this is a pilot, obviously to day that's unit testing the system. and as the motor is going through the fuel sheds, they produce the q r cord and they are given a quarter for a week. they can, they can pump 2 days a week. but cars get a total of 16 liters motorbike get a total of 3 liters. and the 3 wheeler taxes get something like 5 liters. but having said that, they have announced the government has, ah, received a number of shipment of fuel that said they're both federal and diesel. but the,
1:12 pm
the amount of supplies that are being received are still not regularized like, at this shed or the manager i spoke to a little while earlier he said, sometimes the grant over 40000 liters and me up to 7 bows as a day to day. they've just had a single bozer with 6 out, 6600 liters. that that means at the moment what you see is a clutch of people just behind me. they've kind of surrounded the manager because there are some of them who've been here since 1 o'clock this morning, touching on almost 15 hours. and the supplies are almost finished for the day. so they are facing returning home and not getting any fuel. they can't, you know, automatically wait on and get their fuel to morrow. and the next bows is come because tomorrow will be another set of final digits that need to queue up. so that is complete frustration ah, here, because what they say is look, this is not face of the last bit of fuel is being gingerly kind of spread out
1:13 pm
between the motor bikes and the 3 wheel it's axes because they are visiting far less. many of them are using it to find their day to day livelihood. so because of that, they're finding it to the government says it's going to regularize things, present run, it becomes thing i had a meeting earlier today. we're hearing that he has ordered us for a baker's running school kids up and down to be given fuel. but there's still a lot of issues that need to be resolved, of course, or an anal fernandez airline for us in colombo. thank you. a bunker sophie a sort of animal to is the executive director of the center for policy alternatives . he joins us now. also from colombo, thank you for your time. i want to get to you. we'll come to the issue of, of fuel specifically in a moment, but i want to get your take on recent appointments and new prime minister now latino, the commissioner as the president, you know, a lot of the protests were about their not being fuel,
1:14 pm
but also just the cost of living. so will these appointments and click hate protested or, or are these appointments just more of the same when at one level they're more of a shame because presto baker, machine has to rely on at the s o p. p majority in parliament, bishop repute force was the party of barrage faxes for any action miss viruses that should programs been shown. so there are many people from b s o p p who are in the new government. the question is, is how is data going to respond to the auster, the brutally rich of the out of the article. it from goldfish on the last morning that it is determined to continue but as to whether it can continue with such force and intensity to force the scotsman to also go is a big question at the present moment. so as we're speaking with correspondent, the now few has finally arrived. not enough, it appears,
1:15 pm
but it is being rationed. where is it coming from? how can the country of afford it? and will this be enough to sort of locate people in the short term? but basically that is not enough is always going to disappoint, defend number of people that the fuel is coming through. india who is giving us those credits. but we need to get much, much more in order to rationalize the situation and bringing some stability and get rid of these cues. because after the stutter supplies, as we did it said, we don't seem to have any options in terms. so alternative supplies. and so we might face retrieve the say 2 weeks and then go into a situation of shortage of acute shortage. yes. again, one of the longer term plans that have been put in place or talked about for this government to get credit line to get some cash sort of in the, in the medium to long term. what i mean, our credit is,
1:16 pm
and the metrics to the said, the 1st thing is that we should have political stability. and batch of course depends on the trace authorize between the article and the place. and the government, if that fish off does not have time, if it does not intensify, et cetera, we might be able to get a certain amount of calm. but we need to, nevertheless, come up with the stop agreement with the i m. s and get more money from vision finance. so those are entirely dependent on the international communities perception of the situation and 3, like got a, is that a government that stable be? is there a government that is that for trusted and has the confidence in its people and 3, is there a government that can enter into commitments and keep that? do you think that the people will accept run all the crime missing it given how
1:17 pm
many times he's been climate the given are his being seen as very close to got the bottle to park? so do you think that that he's going to be accepted? will things sort of settle down now? this is entirely dependent upon the article, aaron, to what extent that they can intensify their struggle. i would say that as far as public opinion is concerned, this is somewhat be right. it that those people who are strong, the upholstery, right, recognition and those people who sort of think that look, we are in dire economic circumstances. this is the only person who watches skill. abby: expertise on the experience navigate ashton dia times a big deal with diarrhea and begin drill about it. so there is divided opinion, but i think in terms of which one is stronger at the present moment. darcy, polls from new victim singers, participation in government as president harry gotten to this on probably have the upper hand, but it is dependent entirely upon their ability to go the most public behind the
1:18 pm
demand that relevant to michigan should meet. or i will leave at half time. thank you for your time pucker sophie, sort of animal to. we appreciate it. thank my head on the news all including protest and pakistan after bi election and punch our province. angus supporters of the former prime minister vigil in 8 resilient for vela to protest against the killing of 19 people in a police raid and enforce a dramatic night at the women's european championship football action. coming up later on in the el, ah, thailand's prime minister play with john archer and 10 of his ministers have savant and no competence vote opposition parties filed the motion in june, alleging ethics violations. this load was seen as the last big test of proof,
1:19 pm
8 year premier ship head of an election next year. 2010 reports from bangkok, thailand's prime minister, calmly taking his seat ahead of the no confidence boat in parliament. despite 3 days of debate, prya cannot cher, doesn't look like a man under pressure. while opposition politicians have tried to land. some punches, or the ruling coalition still holds a majority. your boy, what am what? my take what it they have to clarify there, since you accused me of being unsuccessful. this is completely untrue order when i'm with only general prior, has emerged as an unlikely survivor in the turbulent landscape of time politics after leading a military coup in 2014, he has remained in charge both as a military man and since elections 3 years ago. as the civilian prime minister with a general election looming in the next 12 months, the opposition hoping a greater test is just around the corner. even mr. brown can survive
1:20 pm
from the motion off know conference. but i still have all that in there. um erection, in the next year, people will not support him. street protests against the government and the monarchy have been silenced with the rest to protest leaders. but many people still object to a government. they see as illegitimate, and a poor response the cobra 19 pandemic. and the rising cost of living crisis is expected to reflect badly on the government at the ballot box next year. public sentiment that going in are running very strong against the government, against paiute economic conditions or worsening. so it is so very plausible and likely that the opposition parties will do well in the general private sale through this motion of no confidence with relative ease for the crags that have emerged within the ruling coalition. the suggestion voters are looking for a change ahead of general elections next year, means this could be the beginning of
1:21 pm

1:35 pm
a poop or called the debate that over that. so it has these repeating or graph that tab behind the closed doors. and those even who have been asked that, that constitution that we're coming out to see that this proposed concentration is not what we have that often has been recent, might not be sure to, to, to, to, to turn that in the favor or the present. and so the not 9000000 people now that are over 9000000 people eligible to ward in the company or when the fiscal year july. but then the claims that many people have been reduced even without the knowledge that the one of the key issue here. what 15th of july is going to be the turn now and then that the pro pastors here are $24.00 point plus several parties across country are coolie for the boy could because they do not want to give the image the mercy to that it's true them that, that the constitution, the ready controversial constitution because they said that this prosecution is simply mercy, the parliamentary assistant that has been adopted in 2014 and is going to turn that
1:36 pm
he to an executive possession system with lucy, rise to the peasants with all the institutions for their will go to sleep over the judicial, over the condiment and see peaceful in check and balance until the school, the separation of the parlor. that's why the fear in the company is that if this because constitution is at food or get yes, then it co pays the way back to wrestle. start out there for us in tune as thank you. we have as aids ali, who is a constitutional law specialist and, and advise our own constitutional negotiations and various our countries joins us live via skype also from tunis. thank you very much for your time. so you are an advisor. then on, on constitutional negotiations. i assume you've seen a few drafts, referenda drop constitutions written, not then opponent say this document amounts to a solidification of
1:37 pm
a power. grab what, what's your take? i mean, that's absolutely right. i mean, the, the, you're corresponding to ground use the term, an executive less system that doesn't property capture with this proposed constitutional does. to describe as an executive lead makes it sound like a standard presidential system. where that's not what the proposed doctor does. the standard presidential system has imitations. there is a balance of powers and the president of the month of maturity, but the balance remains in this proposed constitution. there is no balance flows, a very clear, pure medical structure of power, and the president is very much alone at the top of the pyramid. and all other branches of government are completely subservient to the president's will. and just to give you an example of the difference between a standard russian guys presidential system and with being propose international, the united states of the president and system. but there are no circumstances in
1:38 pm
which the president of the republic can dissolve. congress. it's not something that's accepted in the united states and that's possible. however, in our circumstances in which the president, under the proposed constitution can dissolve parliament, including in situations where is the president's own old standard of behavior, which is wanting in that circumstance, instead of the president being held accountable, you can simply turn around and whole problem with the killed the even though probably may not have been anything wrong, maybe for protection of the well and there's all found. conversely, there is nothing that can be done to hold the present. busy accountable other than waiting for the end of the 5 year term. and if you're lucky, a literal laws will be geared in his favor. the currency, what looks like is likely to happen is that the system is going to be adopted,
1:39 pm
will create a system so that if the problem is elected within a few months or year, the people are wildly unhappy with the present performance. there's simply nothing you can do. you have to wait until the end of the person's. busy term there's no authority nor other institution in the state that can control him. there's no mechanism to hold them accountable. there's something that can be done. how and that's good. how common is it to not even have a minimum required turn out for a referendum? you know, on a drop constitution to go through how legitimate is this entire process? well, i mean, you have also to system. so i don't say that it's completely uncommon or unique to have a minimum turned out by and large people are all except that you do need to have significant turnover in order for the results to be recognized. and them to be considered politically legitimate or part of it. and so normally, for example,
1:40 pm
