assignment is underway in istanbul to open a center that will facilitate green exports from ukraine. it follows an agreement between ukraine and russia 5 days ago. that was broken by turkey and the u. n. it allows for the shipment of 20000000 tons of grain that are trapped in ukraine's black c ports. the grinning government says it wants to resume exports this week for the 1st time since the russian invasion began in february, wilson cross yellow is live for us in istanbul. cinema. how is those going to work in practice? well, there are, we are waiting for the turkish defense minister to reveal the details of the joint command center that has been operational. as of today today, he's going to be doing the official opening of it. and since yesterday we know that the russian and ukrainian military officers and along with you and representatives have arrived and will then started working in this joint commence center. so this

joint command center all say the headquarters and the stumble will be overseeing the safe navigation, all the commercial vessels that will leave your question for cross, for the black sea and then cross through the turkey rates to which international markets and this headquarters will be checking the documents, it will be coordinating with the ukraine, the offer to the new cranium port. and if there is any risk of this command center, it has the authority to stop the west and check them if they're the risk of let's say, carry weapons or any other critical. a claims that could jeopardize the deal, signed with the u. n. last friday, and it's tumble as for our understanding from the turkish officials and some russian officials stated yesterday, we are counting last few days for the ukrainian grain to which to leave the black

sea ports of ukraine and emphasis. headquartered, there will be nearly 20 a military officers and un representative who will be overseeing this process. and this is how it will operate. and hopefully, as the un has be warning since last june, the world actually country is like in africa, have been threatened by famine. and through this way, initially these countries will have the a will have the opportunity to reach ukrainian grains. then let me remind that to quinn is the world's 5th largest weeds exporters. so this is very important because as russia implemented a full scale invasion to ukraine last february, the full line, the put supply chain was entrapped because of this cutoff. that's why it's, it's very important that ukraine grain a grains reach markets and the food supply chain continues because there are at

least 20000000 a tons of grains stuck in ukraine. and the new harvest season is a, has over the iraq. that's why this will open the way also for the russian grains because it, russian grains are in sanctioned but because of the sanctions own insurance and other companies and the insurance companies on the willingness for to, to work with the russian come a commercial ships. the russian weeks grains have been stuck as well. so this will also pay the way for russian grains to reach the world. michael. so for both russian refrain, this is a win win situation if it's really suck seats and we're just waiting for that. some procedure to begin and also for the turkish defense minister to speak soon as they does that. of course we're going to bring you life but coverage on that for no. soon, costello,

thank you very much. indeed. in countries in the european union have agreed to reduce how much gas they use after rush, a warrant of another drop in supply. you members of volunteer to cut consumption by 15 percent from august until march. russia says output will fall because it has to do maintenance on a faulty gas turbine. but you leaders accused moscow of playing politics, barbara, and over reports. the energy crisis, slimming over europe, dominated the meeting of e ministers in brussels, cutting gas consumption ahead of winter. the best and only way to reduce ease reliance and russian energy. fortified be a sam correspond stay 15 percent cut in our usual gas when sumption to be in the beginning of august and the end of march. that's why we have pointed to this percentage as the target or member states should stay forward. russia is set to further reduce supplies to the north stream pipelines. blaming

a technical fault at one of their stations, something e and ministers disappeared. e leaders say there's no technical reason for the latest reduction of the short national game. as of today, there is no solution to the ongoing equipment issues at the port here they are compressed the station near there is no solution whatsoever yet. seems as saying nothing because they're trying to find solutions, but there are milan spectrum out as the western russia exchange economic blows in response to russia's warn ukraine. european leaders say moscow is not a trustworthy partner. the wind is coming ah, and we don't know how cold it will be, but what we know for sure that would be in the will continue to play his her doctor games her in misusing and like, mailing her by ha ha, ga supplies, ukraine's president for lottie mal zalinski says, europe is

a ready at war with russia, and gas is a new front line, or is he in this? but i said, all this is done by russia on purpose to make it as difficult as possible for your opinions to prepare for winter. and this is an open guess war that russia is waging against the united europe. this is precisely how it should be perceived. and they don't cable happen to the people or how they will suffer from hunger g to the blockading of ports, or from winter cold and poverty, or from occupation. these are just different forms of terror yet. wellness those, that nearly half of all the gas europe needs comes from russia. the supply is now down to relative trickle. come winter, if you a pin countries don't have enough supplies toward up and time rations will almost settle him. mean a struggle to heat homes and power cities. barbara and epa out to sara. in the philippines, the interior minister says at least 4 people have now been killed and 60 injured after a magnitude, 7 of craig had its northern region. the center appears to be the town of dollars

and the province of abra. tremors were felt as far away as the capital manila, which is more than 300 kilometers to the south train services have been disrupted. the u. s. geological survey says there's no threat of astronomy on president federline marco's junior has assured, a quick response. now, honda hannibal books and among slowly the roads are being cleared, we have been some of those that were not possible. we've already been able to clear if there are no big boulders blocking the roads and it's just a soil, then it's not a problem. and i anticipate that by the end of the day, all the roads will be clear and mama ok, let's bring in richard gordon. his chairman and chief executive officer ad philippine red cross is joining us for manila. thank you very much. indeed for being with us, sir. my understanding is that this part of the world is prone to natural disasters like typhoons. earthquakes. does that make a difference in how prepared people are for an event like this at

lee? yes. about $990.00 july 16. you had a very big clue in that area in by wheel. and a lot of people died there. and now united $27.00 and we have another earthquake and we really, more or less the same areas except for you said from was on, was affected. they call the delusion they show. of course people are more prone to being repaired. but of course you've never been there for have a very strong week. this is one of the strong ones overweight. what kind of aid could the red cross and other organizations like yours supply in a situation like this? well, right now we're in the creation center. in certain areas, you're doing psychological support. a lot of people have been traumatized and we have provided, for example, for as a, as a psycho logical support. and also we have distributed base back and i united them

and we should be providing blank goods. and mostly because what's the most because we have of bravo data and we are providing what they're doing as well as time british and the rest of the parish. and we have about 20 chap around the area already with says we have 4 ambulances there in the areas already. we didn't have to bring anybody did a lot, but those are so far. i'm glad that very few people have been killed, relatively new to casualties. i haven't gone, you know, all right, but there is a quote with the situation. so we have to be careful about that. just very briefly, i want to ask you about the point that you made about psychological support because that is something that is not obvious when it comes to situations like this. we tend to concentrate on the physical aid that can be given. but one would imagine that counseling and psychological support is

a key element to something like this. especially young people of some people that make some people have had a fax and they trauma. and so our social services always make sure the address of them are also, of course they lose their houses, have 100 people, 145000000 evaporation centers, and then they will waive their concord zone. so certainly have an impact on their men edition, and that is why that question always. you have to do that. that is why also the trauma going to be seen. and these are the way some people don't want to go back to their homes, sleep outside. so here we go with the right black, good match, what i start bullying, and certainly i won't keep them i said are treated again if you don't get against malaria and start to leave,

food and water must be made available. are sending food trucks there. so address the problem i'll be will that the welcome i was i'm the that was good for the in terms of, for your to your teams are telling you about the situation on the ground. what kind of indication of the giving you about the level of damage and the fact that this is hard on people's lives. what i was saying, who does not heard a lot of people, but certainly a lot of be lost their homes and delayed the damage to their homes. are that really baird? and you know you have a lot of slides up the roads. so yeah, i'm going to have to interrupt you there. apologize. richard gordon, chairman and chief executive of the philippine red cross. thank you very much. i want to take your life to a stumble and the opening of that so called joint coordination center,

which is designed to oversee grain ship and from your train. this is chuck the defense minister. hello c r car speaking aspect including food and others. as you're also aware of many of the way it cuts is the grains from russia and the upgrade. and these mounts to sit on the of grains and much this catty great significance to many countries worldwide, especially in africa. more than 25000. you are lying in the caribbean sea port. it is very important that the ships off at the earliest and to provide the passage to these grains. the delivery of these goods is very substantial and great. the coordination center,

the president of turkey tables again, took the initiative and spoke to both the russian president and the caribbean counterpart, whereby an agreement was reached. would go to that to set up a c port on the black sea whereby these grades and ships can set off and stuff like that. i was also turns on the admiral from both be there to get it out to me that i sent on ukrainian along with the sides in order to oversee these negotiation. so that i was up, you stumble, calling that cause meeting was held, and agreements was reached on these it into seaports and safe passages through many countries. world wide ex, suppressed different distances. however, both session with the,

the russian was an ukranian president, along with the turkish president. and the secretary general of the united nations assigned a joint agreement in order to integrate this coordination to the court center. and also to ensure that the safe passage is created and the ships carrying grains in the black sea dispatched. as you know, these ships are carrying grains on either 4th items will be sent off from that exam or the south of ukraine mores. these shipments will say safely, got to know where under coordination, military and civil representatives from russia, ukraine, goinna take here and the united nations. what does this joint coordination center will be? his court order? in istanbul,

it will be closely monitoring all of the ships leaving the sea port, idleness, or calling on them. i talked to many of the ships will be digitally monitor. these are, they will be all so closely monitored with people that are talking about the military and civil intelligence. with coordination with the united nations coordinator with ships will be loaded on them on that in the queue in either ukrainian seaport. after that, they will be there certainly while on the supposed to then they will leave off. well in terms of the meanwhile for them met in my is should be removed when i get it and in case anything emerges under further discussions will follow that. i think just one moment the documents for science are valid for 120

days and if needed they will be extended all commercial ships. and the black sea workers either will be monitored by the, by the turkish military and 1st structure. and we will be talking directly with the competent officers, so as we speak the 1st ship to leave the ukrainian sports, one of the one that i'm, that you guys are are being jimmy, that it wasn't done them closely planned at that point. so we have a very clear vision that all the risk is i'm per, is hovering that alan global food security must be eliminated this move, well, no doubt the result in reducing the global prices of grains worldwide, we hope that we will be able to work jointly and join forces in order to solve this

crisis and provide assistance to worlds johnny security, namely the global foot security. in this respect, we believe that you are the representatives of russia, ukraine to the united nations and turkey have a great responsibility for the shoulder. we are in the face, it's with a huge historical responsibility. as stated by president, again before this agreement is very substantial, it is very critical to the world security and to the world's food security. we should no spare, no effort, and do all what we can in order to solve this crisis. and we hope that will all end through diplomatic and talks in good faith in as you are aware of the signing of this agreement was very critical,

much more than john was. and then we moved to, to words dispatching delegations from russia and ukraine the following day. which was a very critical move, i'm done with all the countries concerned. and this one of the joint with turkey is always siding with world peace and security for supper. spending no effort in supporting diplomatic and diverse. that is why i'm getting president other than urged for an immediate cease fire chrissy. but i don't just hold on mercer but was hoping to re establish peace between russia and ukraine. the endeavors exerted by turkey are critical with dissolving this crisis

record. we believe it is very important honor to reach a ceasefire assessment and allow passage for humanitarian aid. and that's what we all endeavor full to register. we are doing all what we can to within your not get it. they get to measure just our presence as a and they to member head if you return your call. as you are aware, lou, from the outset we have been communicating with all sides of the russians. and they are corinthians, sorry to bother with them. according to many observers and experts, because i consider and then was the actions that will be undertaken by this joint command center will no doubt result in deducing the global prices of grains. this is very crucial and we hope that that agreement this agreement on other agreements relating to energy and other commodities will follow up with

a check. yes. is good at my center console is are resonated through to the 6. we extend all thanks and appreciation. joe marchina, sorry, short room to all officials, any ukraine also look in russia, look over who saw the contributed to make in our mission. but if you look at our success, who paving the way for this, this is what was runs great endevour. as we integrate this little j instead of center, we also to stand all appreciation to his excellency of president told us one of them or the guy. and last one was those efforts you were working on that brought about this agreement into existence. once again, i welcome you to the center and i wish you all the best. so this one is that because i was allowed to do it because it gave you the, like i said,

i'm your project that. thank you. you're watching are 0, and we've been ringing coverage of the opening of a joint coordination center overseas green shipments from ukraine. it's based in istanbul in turkey, and it follows a deal made by russia, ukraine, natal member, turkey, and the united nations, which was signed to unlock the ukrainian grain fertilizer exports from black c ports. to help relieve a growing food crisis made worse by the war that was the turkish defense minister. ha lucy, our car who was speaking there. he was talking about the but the way that the deal had been brought together, what the center was supposed to do. he said that this was a great responsibility to shoulder for those who had been involved in the deal. and i want to bring in our correspondence, send him costello, whose life for us in istanbul has sent him the point that the defense minister was making there. that this is a great responsibility is an apt one because this is an agreement based as much as anything else on trust. and people are going to be watching very closely to see

whether or not this deal actually works. exactly, and this is the main concern, for instance, when russia militarily, for act odessa, over the last weekend everybody was concerned. but we also listened to turkish foreign minister today appears on a turkish news outlet. and the morning he sat, thankfully the talk of the area was about the course, of course, there always every about that when it comes to ukraine and russia. but one thing the turkish officials are hopeful about, along with the un representatives as that this great un brokerage crucial rating deal is a win win for both you played on russia. so if you crane grains are at risk because of russian strikes or an interference, this will also count for russia as well. because last friday,

russia and ukraine separate refined to the us to memorandum of understanding with turkey and you. and as the russian brains were not anxious since the beginning of the war and ukraine, they were blocked as well because of the situation about the insurance companies and the commercial russell company is now through this deal in russia is also able to export the grain freely to the world of market and also this is, this is not only about ukraine and russia. yes, we are talking about 25000000 tons of ukrainian winds that i've been stock in ukrainian soil. and a new harvest season has nearly come is probably going to begin in a few days. but this is affecting the developing markets, the countries in africa and other places. the un officials,

especially in secretary general, when you have been colon got to the world and to ukraine and russia, saying that this is also creating famine and mass irregular migrations are threatening the world. so this is a problem that is, that is related to every country around the globe and because of the global inflation and rising foot prices are, all these are on the table. and this will help not only you brain on russia, but also to the world, but of course, this is a fragile agreement. everybody needs to be careful and for the u. n. m. target, this is a big responsible the, as they are the brokerage of this crucial deal said am. thank you very much indeed . send him quasi on the talking to us from is tumble. i want to go to john hanjin, who's in crusty and northern ukraine. and john, i understand that you are pretty much in farming, green farming country. they're one would imagine that this deal, this movement of the grain is going to mean a tremendous amount to the farmers and ukraine.

if it comes off, it would mean an enormous amount. there. 20000000 tons of grain at ports, 3 ports on the black sea. they've been held there, essentially hostage since this war began with their millions more tons out here in fields like this. and you may be able to see eventually, behind me combine harvesting that grain. and i talked to a farmer here, one of the things he's doing because of the unsafe d of the ports, because russia, his attack, the odessa port twice. and because they're concerned that those shipping channels are not yet safe. what they're doing at this farm is they're actually storing the wheat in containers on the farm and they say they're able to do that for as long as a year. but they would like to get that we out of this country. there are 2 reasons for doing that. one is that ukraine could gain 10 billions of dollars just from the wheat. it's at the ports right now, but that's a less important reason. the more important reason is as you heard in that news

conference, there is a potential looming food crisis going on in africa and elsewhere, and people need that food to avoid starvation. you may be able to see a combined behind me over on this side. they are desperately working and what we saw earlier today was we had d mining experts actually going in front of these commons to make sure that there weren't russian, unexploded unisons or ukrainian munitions in those fields. and while we were there, they found a couple of them. so these farmers are doing this at their peril. john, thank you very much. indeed, john engined, bringing this up to date from crossing that in northern ukraine. relatives of martyred al jazeera journalist, sharina blacklight have met the you are secretary of state in washington to demand accountability for her deaf sharing. that was shot in the head by is ready forces while she was on assignment in the occupied west bank. i was just gonna see how were chauncey mac shirlen's niece, lena, our blocker. we continue to reiterate our demands and our

concerns, especially regarding the 4th of july statement that was released. it was not an investigation and we expressed how damaging it was to the truth. and to all the multiple reports that were released ah, by respect of news outlet, and most importantly by the u. n. o, we clearly demanded an independent and a transparent investigation by the u. s. considering that cheating was an american citizen. we also asked for accountability and the justice wasn't really acknowledgment there about how absurd it seemed. when the u. s. government said that they couldn't make any definitive judgment about who killed shriek, and yet they've decided it wasn't dumb on caucus. by the idea of was, was that contradiction disco spouse, what we asked for them to retract or to correct the statement of considering the

fact that it lacked evidence at clack transparency. and the until to day we were never aware of how the process went. and the secretary blinkin, he, he said he's committed to providing us transparency, moving forward with any process that involves the case of shooting or is, is there a timeline though, as are they gonna furnished information as to exactly what role that had in these investigations and whether they really went forensically over the evidence. so there was no timeline. we were not given a deadline as to when we would receive the information. we will continue to ask for accountability and for you as investigation that is transparent and independent because that statement was not an investigation. we weren't the only ones who are not satisfied. but even now, senators, members of congress expressed that in a letter they sent us to do to the present. so we are.
