extend a truce just 2 hours before it was due to expire, the you and welcomes the move. but agency side, the death toll continues to rise. the 1st ship carrying crying from ukraine since school began with russia arrives at stan bowl with hopes the you in broke a deal will help ease a global food supply crisis. ah, you as hell speaking, nancy pelosi has described taiwan as one of the free societies in the world. china is furious about the most high profile visit by an american official to tie 125 years. beijing considered the island part of its territory, and in response to policies visit has bound to launch what it calls. targeted military actions around the island. shebra tansy reports from washington dc. after days of expectation, nancy pelosi landed in taiwan the 1st time

a u. s. how speak has built that type pagan, 25 years at the airport. she was greeted by taiwan foreign minister and stuff from the american institute in taiwan. the de facto u. s. embassy anti pe. hi pace tools building also proclaimed its welcome. soon after her arrival, pelosi tweeted that her visit was part of an ongoing effort to support democracy against autocracy. comparing it to a trip to ukraine in april. but also after she touched down, there was swift condemnation from beijing. alan announcement that live ammunition drills would take place surrounding tie one of the white house national security spokesperson, john kirby emphasize as he has for several days that there's been no change in policy. the u. s. does not support taiwanese independence and speaker pelosi was acting in our own capacity. united states will not and does not will not seek and does not want a crisis. we are prepared to manage wellbeing chooses to do. at the same time,

we will not engage in saber rattling, however, some analysts say that aging will not be reassured by such statements. instead, suspecting that this visit is just the latest example of the biden administration, chipping away of the one china policy. i think china's concern is around taiwan is the us pursuing this quote unquote salami. ready slicing strategy and posing landing and taiwan is a slab, not a slice already have been multiple reports of hiking, military activity by the people's liberation army, or the white house as it expects. the main consequences of policies visit to unfold in the medium term. she advertise see al jazeera washington hello c is about to may tie ones presidents. she early amid the deputy speaker of the countries parliament . here's what she told them. we come in friendship to taiwan. we come in

peace for the region. we look forward to our conversation about how we can work together, learning from you and, and sharing some thoughts ourselves on how to protect the planet from the climate crisis. how to accelerate and learn from you, how you addressed the coven crisis. how we advance respect for all of the people in our countries as we go forward. but if you goverlan is the international editor of taiwan plus, he joins us via skype from ty, thanks for joining the program. and policies just said taiwan is one of the free societies in the world. how significant is that comment? and what reaction has there been to it so far? not floating, has always been a huge proponents of taiwan and upholding democracy and always holding a pie one at the beacon of democracy in this region. she's also been a huge opponents of a jane. always critical of the human rights records that always critical of their

actions, particularly their aggressive actions and language toward high one. so all this is not very surprising that was after she landed, she visited the legislature party from across the spectrum. time with our position part me was favorite closer ties with china, but she also met them through a warm welcome from them. so across the political spectrum, she has gotten a warm welcome. now believes he also has other plans. today she'll be meeting the president probably just as we speak, we'll be meeting present inciting when once again another very significant move because it's very rare to have such high level meeting place wide here in 5 pay between the person who could be 3rd in line for the u. s. presidency as the leader of taiwan. but also along with that on her to marry, which you probably added on is she will be me meeting the c o r t s m. you know,

that's part of the largest chip maker. and one of the largest contract chip maker semiconductor company in the world. so, you know, once again, los, he's doing everything she can for diplomacy and all ends from, you know, from the economy to, to shaking hands with petitions. and so she's being received very well here. a port and about predictable. what people are still watching very cautiously because the question is, you know, china is watching cautiously too. so what's going to happen there? and just on that, a number of experts we've spoken to over the past couple of hours and had said that taiwan will actually be the brunt of china saying and not the us. so what sanctions have already been put in place and, and what else can it expects? right, so it's not just the sanctions that taiwan is worried about. yes, indeed. china, yesterday, when they knew that it was clear that not to know if you will be landing there, they found about a 100 taiwanese company to provide food products in agriculture to china and china

. it's i want the largest trading partner, so this could burg, economically china, customs issues. but people here know and see it as a way of punishing them. trying to could definitely point is tiwana economically, but here there's another more to mr. movements that are happening basically trying to start military drill just 30 minutes after that to you landed here and tie one basically around the water. it's one that started military drones. now they haven't quite crossed into taiwan water that media line that separates taiwan waters and trying to water it's, but they're also for the 1st time saying that they're going to do miss out drills. and according to the language we're seeing on social media and from government, social media, those massage girls could very well go in to taiwan water and that would be unprecedented. so definitely, while taiwan is, you know, concerned about those,

the economic impact or what kind of punishment china could impose economically. the bigger issue here is what can trying to do militarily and date. i think you so much for your time in expertise that is dea golf alone, who joined us? well, also joining us now is tony ching, from bangkok and tony, nancy pelosi has had a long history of criticizing china. so why do you think that she's made the trip now? well i as an individual, as you so she has that long history, but i think we have to look good sir. although we've seen a sort of a statement from the white house saying that perhaps she wasn't being encouraged to go. this does seem to be a move from the united states in general. it is not exactly provoking china, but certainly testing it. or we saw a lot of animosity during the champ for years,

which didn't really amount to much in that, i think, to a certain extent, the biden administration has tried to tamp down a bit. but they are still very keen. i think on pushing china's limits a little bit. it's also period time when china is perhaps a little more vulnerable than it's been in the past. it's covered shut down. so i've had a huge economic impact, which is only just being felt at the same time. we've heard that sir. president biden has been in touch with president she several times the last couple of weeks. so i, i think they're trying as much as possible to maintain the lines of communication, but also to make a very clear statement. now just to the chinese, but i think to the wider region in general that the united states is engaged. it's not pushing back. or it's not provoking, i think, but it's trying to make his presence felt very much here. and it's worth remembering also that the secretary of state antony blink and his also in the regions they, his expected to visit the ann meeting down in southeast asia later on in the week or so. i think if you look at this, generally as the met,

the united states is moving back into the region. i think they're trying to reassure countries here that they are still very much a presence. and that china isn't the only game in town. it just just on there the, the white house is as distance itself from ah, nancy pelosi is tripping biden. to see the status quo are continue. so why is it then that beijing is so angry with her visit? of the very thank the this, the most powerful person in the administration is in a country where he didn't sorry in a state that it considered part of its territory, i think is a provocation. that hasn't happened since $997.00. that time we saw a very similar reactions. but china, 997 is a, was a very different countries of the country. it is now. we understand that 2 of its recently built f o across carries, have been deployed to the region. we've got military exercises planned all around.

down in the south of taiwan. we understand there are there occurring just about 10 kilometers off the coast. so this does create a potential problem. i think the concern here would be that one of those exercises go out of control that but perhaps there was an accident or a clash. we've also got for american warships in the fairly close proximity, including an aircraft carrier. so there is the potential for a clash and accent, something could that could spark a great complex. and i think that is a real consent the chip has pushed china to a certain extent. i think what the americans are hoping is that it's a reminder to the chinese that they are still very much a presence in the region, but the chinese do have to react with seeing them do so. now think the hope is that once this trip is over, they can deescalate the situation and, and then move forward to some stage. but i think paging will remain very angry for

some time to come and take. thank you very much. this tony ching with us from bangkok or to other news and humans war in parties have agreed to extend a full month's truce for 2 more months. just hours before it was due to expire. the you an invoice to yemen, said the seas far between the government and who the rebels will now continue until october. the 2nd, the announcement came hours after an armani delegation concluded 3 days of talks with the healthy leadership, chris and salome has more now from the united nations. the 2 month extension of yelman's truce is being welcomed by members of the un security council and the humanitarian community who point out the positive impact it's had since it was 1st adopted back in april, reducing the number of casualties. the longest period of calm and 7 years, and i had other positive impacts as well, allowing fuel to get into the country and displays people to return to their homes . but there are sticking points that remain. they want to get more supplies into

the country and they need to work out how to pay civil servants. and one major sticking point has been reopening roads, particularly around the city of ties which is controlled primarily by the government. but who the aligned militia seem to be stopping access, getting in. so all of this comes also with some worrying signs in the country. the organization save the children, points out that the last week of july was one of the bloodiest in years, a total of some $65.00 civilian casualties. them were killed in that time. some $38.00 of them were children. so all of this is raising concerns and putting pressure on the process going forward. but the un special envoy for yemen. hans greenberg says that the parties have agreed to intensify their negotiations going forward in an attempt to reach a more permanent political solution. the extension of the truce in yemen has been

widely welcomed, both many families, so thus still waiting to feel the benefits of the agreement. casio love is wholly on, has more on the streets of yelman's capital santa. there's both hope and skepticism . the 2 month extension of a un brokerage truth comes as a relief, but many say the benefits of the agreement have yet to reach most people across the country quickly that old rogue on extending the truth shortly to peace. but we're still waiting for summaries to be paid on for the inter ration of the central bank and national currency. people are suffering a truce like the previous one isn't away, useless because there's no war, but there's also no peace. with the extension. the focus now turns to expanding the terms of the troops that alum and the i let the given on the union infrastructure has been completely destroyed, both civilian and military, there's nothing left scottish. so when a settlement the people of yemen have the right to benefit from it,

starting from humanitarian aid, health and education, and everything has been effected. this medical center is a painful reminder of the conflict and its victims. for months the truth has led to less attacks and less fighting. but for many, the damage was done years ago. fighting between the saudi, let coalition and who the fighters have scored the country and its people shower them in the area of rent. manila, we want the truth to remove this dark period from our lives. the siege to be over for seller is to be paid. we want peace promises of cease fires, have repeatedly been broken in yemen. there is hope repeated truce extensions will bring them closer to a permanent peace deal. patio lopez of the young al jazeera still ahead on al jazeera ah, rocky cheerleader, mac tulsa tells his followers to leave parliament and continued the protest outside

issued by the aides. i'm a federal southern who said, although the demonstrations to continue, they should leave this building. that's most of the people we've spoken to here. say they're not going anywhere. i tell me the chief they're both doctors are welcome. as i walk in fontes walker, i heard about the evacuation order and we will leave at that point and camp outside the parliament noted looked at all, saw others demand been fulfilled, yet it is like the fall on deaf ears. no answer. they have lost the right path because they are corrupt and sad. nothing of the demands have been fulfilled, and we are stink, and we will not move. we are here until all demands are met. it's not the demands of looked at us suddenly, but these demands of the demands of all iraqis. ah, the question now is, will the next heavy cars me enough time for the various political factions to get together and try to come out with some kind of a resolution to this ongoing political crisis?

what is clear is that the situation continues to be as unpredictable and tense as it has been over the past few days. when my mood, abdullah, he'd reports now and hell, the political chaos is taking its toll on the lives of baghdad. citizens, iraq is have been waiting for a change. taxi drivers, a new exception. they say the recent unrest has worse in and already over a stretch transportation system. the hammer at all roads are so crowded, so jammed, all wake has been affected. we spend long hours to get a few passengers with his crisis, men are reluctant to travel to bagdad. as emily calculated as some of most of the roads are blocked because of the security measures imposed following the demonstration. so we have to make turns that take hours within iraq's political system is in crisis. there hasn't been a government for my mom's parliament has been occupied by supporters of influential

weeks of political unrest. many have been hoping for a new government that can enhance services and improve the lives. although it's an oil rich country, iraq remains one of the least developed nations in the world. poverty and unemployment on the rise. high shallow, i've got that thought up. we count on new authorities to create jobs. we need jobs, we have been waiting for so long people he had were hopeful for a change, especially after the last october the elections. but recent events have overshadowed those hopes that were had algebra, a bubble that venezuela's economy has seen its biggest boom in 15 years due to higher oil prices. yet many continue to leave the country in search for a better life. migration authorities say 2500000 people from venezuela now live in neighboring columbia. alessandro from p a. t has more from the border city of kuta

this is the only meal they get during the day. there is so much need and more keep coming. and the worst is that when they arrive, they don't have a place to sleep. and we're talking big family 10 to 15 people. since the panoramic growing inflation and economic hardships in columbia convinced hundreds of thousands to return to venezuela last year. but the latest report published by the colombian government seems to suggest the opposite saying that just in 6 months, between september 2021. in february, 2020 to 34 percent more venezuelans have arrived, bringing the total number 22500000. witness of international donors. the regional government is quietly built a number of temporary shelters along the main migrant route, providing basic health care meals and emergency protection for the worst cases with some official faith, not enough. and they need more financial assistance from donors where some police

think actually that yes, despite important assistance by the national government, hospitals are again dealing with $30000000.00 in debt for assisting migrants. and when a new schools and teachers were worried, columbia has made a huge effort in it. it also requires joined international assistance. let's be ballast. can some hope that the arrival of a new colombian government, promising to re establish relations and international trade with venezuela, will help offering much needed opportunities for venezuelans on both side of the border. alexander m p. a t t. i jesse dakota, ah, until mccray, with the headlines on al jazeera during a visit to taiwan us. how speaker nancy pelosi has described the island as one of the free societies in the world. pelosi went ahead with a visit to taiwan,
