6:02 pm
robert malley, is on his way to the austrian capital for the discussions set to begin on 1st day for her on and washington have been holding in direct negotiations until now. the agreement broke down in 2018 after the u. s. under president donald trump pulled out, ron says it's ready to reach a deal that guarantees its rights. i'll just hear as of dollars. shami joins us now live from vienna. so dollars they look like these talks are heading for any degree of success. well, this round. oh, so cold discussions that suddenly a, you know, the every and no one actually knew this was coming. it was a such a short notice for all parties. but damn, this is actually based on what the policy chief of the european union has a stated on the 20th of july when he wrote an op ed in the financial time saying that this is the only chance and the last chance to actually revive this deal. on
6:03 pm
the a, his, his deputy who actually leads there. these are discussions and these new occasions . enrique amora is already in vienna and all the parties are also on route to vienna. the meeting would be mostly a discussion on this text. the text that is been labeled as a 20 july decks, and they, they seems to be some kind of agreement or understanding from all parties on this next. and not really much is known on what exactly they were peons as being the emitted yet. as for this m a, you know, this a deal there that was established in 2015 has in, but there, at that the only fact we know for now is that are all the parties are coming to town to vienna here. and that they seems to be a possibility that the your opinion and see is the last chance to revive this deal . especially that there's not actually much left of the or the period that that was established for this deal. it was supposed to end up in about 2 years from now, but the way therapies have seen it is that there's been so much exhaustion from all
6:04 pm
parties and that everyone needs to see or is all to the year the, the iranians need to see sanctions imposed by the u. s. la, you know, i've been lifted to see actually benefits of this deal. and at the same time, the other side, the united states needs to see an implementation a regarding the nuclear program by the iranians. so everyone coming here and sitting, of course not together, there will be a separate room when it comes to discussions between european iranians and as well between the robbins and the americans. everyone probably hopes that this could lead to break through. we could see actually an agreement coming out of a sudden this been 7 rounds and the last of which was in a march. and as a right now we see i may be a lost hope as they were pin scarlett. and as joseph put on himself, the foreign policy achieve of the your opinion has said in his op ad, in the financial times that this is that the deal itself might not be the best. and
6:05 pm
he, he does it a good night that there is a lot of flows in it. but he does see this as the only text that maybe everyone can finally come, you know, to an agreement with and, and we could probably see maybe some kind of a different attitude by all the parties now and her. this shall be seen tomorrow when this new round of negotiations, or maybe rather this discussions take place here in vienna. all right, thanks so much. and the last show me where i am. and mandy is an advisor to the iranian delegation in vienna is also the dean of the faculty of world studies at the university of tron. joins us from the rainy and capital good to have you with us. so 1st of all, what happens is suddenly make this round of talks possible after months of stalemate. well, there has been an initiative from the europeans and the iranians, as before, are fully prepared to re implement the nuclear deal, the j. c,
6:06 pm
p o n. as we all know, the nuclear deal, which were assigned in 2015, was violated by the americans systematically under obama, from day one. and ultimately, trump tore up the deal. whereas the iranians were abiding by their commitments from day one and 2015. so the ryans are saying that we will not allow history to repeat itself. if the americans violate their commitments, there has to be a price for them to pay. now this is, these are, there are, le, let me and also mohammed, has there been a price paid a come back to my question. what has made this round of top suddenly possible because both sides were kind of sticking to their guns, so to speak. i think there are a number of issues. one is the crisis in europe and the high energy prices that the world is facing, the americans and europeans, desperately need more fuel and lower prices. there's also the fact that the
6:07 pm
russians and chinese have been improving their relations with iran, and iran has been improving its relations with both the you're in the united states on the relative decline. whereas non western countries, such as iran, china and russia on the rise. and if the europeans and americans waste more time, it's not going to be to their benefit, especially with the fries coming this winter. so the iranians, as they negotiated in good faith in 2015 and also a few months ago, they're willing to have a deal. they're willing to restart the nuclear deal. but the americans have to extract that day because of the violations that they committed in the past that they have to give you run the necessary assurances so that the iranians are not fooled again by the americans, that the right hands are not harmed again by some mac,
6:08 pm
some southern policy change in washington is iran still say king guarantees along those lines that a future us administration won't pull out of the agreement of no, the issue that has never been the issue. this is something that the western media has been making up with the help of the western with the u. s. government to draw attention away from the fact that the iranians have been arguing for assurances during the, during the, by the presidency. so they've been talking about a future presidency that's, that's not what the run has have been demanding. also, they've been saying that the iranians want a pre condition was for the guards to be removed from the u. s. terrorist list. so those, whenever it rains, preconditions those, whenever you running pre conditions, know what that or iran, the conditions are assurances that the united states does not violate the
6:09 pm
deal without paying a heavy price. this time around history is the, let me ask them how much is there any indication that the americans would be able to give that a price for any of the matter with great, if the, if the americans are definitely able to get, get that. what is there and how do you have any indication that they're willing to give that? well, that's what they're going to be negotiating about. so it's easier to go with. what, what about lee economic hardship that the sanctions have brought on iran? is that acting as an incentive to bring the parties and to, to bring a rein inspect, negotiating tables? no, the writings never left the negotiating table in the wrong hands. they implemented the deal even after trump by tore up the deal for a whole year afterwards. the iranians were implementing the deal, and over the past few months, since the americans have been stonewalling,
6:10 pm
the iranians refrained from accepting a bad deal for the iranians. what is important is a good, a fair deal, a deal where the running people won't be cheated again. that is all the run into demanding, but they're not going to appease the americans because they're americans and europeans are targeting iranian women and children through brutal sanctions or rather not bottom line question. professor mirandi, how close are the 2 sides to reach you in agreement? how optimistic i think you'll, you'll be joining the delegations tonight. how optimistic are you that they're going to reach an agreement in this round of talks? i'm neither optimistic or pessimistic. we really have to see what's on the table and whether the americans have learned lessons from the past. the americans are not good at keeping, keeping promises. they have to show the right hands that they're going to keep the promises this time around. or i guess time will tell. thanks so much. yes ma'am.
6:11 pm
and miranda are still had on al jazeera, have more on the u. s. how speak? nancy pelosi is controversial visit to taiwan. pushed back on a pipeline. germany's chancellor steps are pressure on russia to take back a turbine at the center of an energy standoff. and it's bored. christiane or anal those behavior is described is unacceptable by his manager. manchester, united. ah . us how speak and nancy pelosi is ended, a controversial visit to taiwan americas 3rd most powerful politician was there for less than a day. stressing washington support for the self rule territory. china, which had strongly warned against the trip, is now begun military maneuvers around the island. i'm a jam, june reports for us. how speaker nancy pelosi, a high profile trip to taiwan. fraught with both complications and contradictions.
6:12 pm
america's 3rd most powerful politician, repeating washington's commitment to protect democracy on the self governed island while also respecting badging so called one china policy. today, the world stays with the choice between democracy and autocracy. americans determination to preserve democracy here in taiwan and around the world. we ne, iron clad, taiwanese president sy, in when, who gave pelosi, one of the highest civilian honors, promised to defend the island from beijing's threats. since hello, aggression against democratic taiwan would have a tremendous impact on the security of the entire into pacific. the man facing deliberately heightened to military threats. ta one will not back down. we will firm yup, hold our nation sovereignty and continue to hold the line of defense for democracy . china, which considers taiwan a part of its territory. has said it once
6:13 pm
a peaceful reunification and views, policies visit as a direct provocation. oh, okay. wonder tie one sighing wayne and her ilk a clinging to us and turning their backs on national justice. these behaviors that go against the trend of times will not change the international consensus of one china and will not change the historic trend that tie one will inevitably return to the motherland. those who play with fire will not come to a good aims, and those who offend china will be punished. even during policies visit china's reaction was fast and furious. suspending imports and exports of several goods to and from taiwan, conducting joint air and sea live ammunition drills near taiwan. and summoning the u. s. ambassador in beijing, policies trip has come to an end. but with chinese american relations at such a low point, it's not clear yet what the long term repercussions of this visit will be momentum
6:14 pm
jerome as it when dominic is a military journalist and the author of the online newsletter, china in arms, they used to work with janes defense, weekly, joins us now from taipei good to have you with us. so, china be conducting live fire drills. we understand was the possibility of this igniting conflict. well, there is a combination of problems here. oh, lucy's visit. just made things worse. taiwan is also having its annual military life fire exercises next week. the annual hong kong exercise and trying to is having both the naval and air exercise as well. and it took months to plan this. this is not good for polosa to drop in like this as a surprise. i also would like to say that the
6:15 pm
timing of the military excited by china is not a, not an accident. this is the ghost month. and there's a lunar calendar month for the weather. the tides are perfect for an invasion. so we expect china in the future to at least consider this month or in the april time frame for an invasion across the town straight. no saw the drills will actually enter, ty, ones walters, we understand can tie, pay, do anything to counter that. will they be simply forced to sit back and watch and hope it passes quickly? time one will do what it normally does. it will survey the exercise. it will communicate with the chinese wanting them not to cross certain lines. there's not much the time when you can do crime.
6:16 pm
the, the surveillance aspect. you do have a bit of a satellite delay here. let me let you continue, then i'll pick up. ok. the worry is that posey's visit my trigger a 4th time one straight crisis with china. the 3rd one which was a 951996, was a major crisis involving china's missiles, ballistic missile capabilities. and since that time period, china is missile capabilities have become of almost perfected to the point where they can just drop something on 3 or 4 meters from the targets on. so this is a concern as well. you mentioned there is not really much taiwan can do so ultimately has the visit by nancy pelosi strengthened eyes that we can tie one's
6:17 pm
military position in. it's uncomfortable for the time when military clearly because they're going to have their own life fire. i think it was responsible for her to surprise the time when these, with the visit it was planned rather late in her, her visits to japan and korea. all right, we'll leave it there. thanks so much for your thoughts on that. now german chancellor, ella shaw says there is no technical reason to delay the return of a gas turbine to russia for the north stream. one pipeline shops made the comment during a visit to the seamans energy science in western germany. the turbine is being stored thereafter, repairs in canada. vicious is not so much of what is important to me is to make it clear that this turbine can be used at any time. there is nothing to prevent its
6:18 pm
transport to russia, except that the russian buyers must inform us that they also want the turbine. the buyers must provide the necessary information for customs transport to russia. spending alls conf. dominic cane is life for us from berlin. so dominic, the timing, the place, even the words which i left child's chose. they're all significant, right? yes, pretty symbolic. just thing that he decided to stand to go to the relevant place, stand next to that turbine and say to the russians, hey, if you think that there are technical problems with the pipeline regarding the turbines, i am standing next to the relevant turbine. i can assure you that it works. you can pick it up whenever you like or we can send it to you. so you can switch the gas back on. if technical problems are the reason why the gas has been, if not shut down, completed the flow of gas that really reduced to far below what the contractual
6:19 pm
basis of gas delivery should be. it's also worth bearing in mind that the words that's and chancellor shots used talk trying to give a degree of certainty, security to the german population and indeed to the you at a why is a level have to be seen also on the basis of what the g 7 has put out today where they criticize the war in ukraine from the russian perspective and said they do not believe that russia is a provider of energy that can be relied upon very strong words, both from the g 7 and from mr. shots. so how our gas supplies then looking in germany and across the u. well, the thing to remember here is that although we are now in this part of europe fully in the summer months, very warm temperatures, therefore not much gas being used to heat residential houses. the residential
6:20 pm
sector, that sort of thing. but the industrial sector in this country particularly uses a great deal of gas. the thing that's really motivating the government's mindset right now is how much gas can they store right now against the demands the needs of winter. government is st that the gas storage facilities here needs to be filled to between 85 to 90 percent capacity by towards the end of awesome the fall season. they say november, well, right now they're very far away from that source of total. and that's just germany, we know that a similar situation, if not quite so bad, pertains and several other e u countries who are dependent on russian energy. so that informs the perspective of what i was saying about the g 7. but also about what mister shots is had to say . he's in a bit of a bind. he wants the russians to return to the contractual delivery of gas. but he also wants to get away from the dependency on russian gas. quite hard to square
6:21 pm
those 2 issues or i there's a bit of a vine. thanks so much. nominate kane. russian forces have been targeting ukraine, southern port city of nikolai of and the eastern region of don yeske. moscow says its force is destroyed for warehouses, storing rockets, artillery, and ammunition would add the hamid looks at the toll, the war is taking on citizens living in the east. the heart wrenching good byes as victim or yoshika is carried away. at 87, he and his wife lydia are about to embark on their new life as displaced persons. leaving behind the memories of a lifetime and their daughter, marina. in easton, ukraine. she fears that this is the last time she will see her parents lose. no wish i did. he did gentle dental because it was a very difficult decision. i understand that this might be the last time i'll see

6:27 pm
a chinese communist party mouthpiece has reported that one has no plans to meet with anthony blinking on the sidelines of planned summit here. and some chinese analysts say this could be intended to send a message to underscore just how angry the chinese government is over the visit. often spokesman, who is also can vote is deputy foreign minister says ministers at the meeting here will be expected or are hoping to use the platform to try and come rising tension on time. one won't be the only issue on the agenda, myanmar will be to especially given the 5 point piece plan that was agreed to biology and last year and agreed to by the jupiter is not only not working, but it's clearly been ignored by the military jacinta, which is not only stepped up, military responds in parts of the country, but is also recently executed for activists, an antique who opponents, one of them and elected member of parliament. now global tensions of the war. and

6:33 pm
with the host, the leadership. joining us now from the united nations is stefan to jerrick spokesman for the un secretary general. good to have you with us for good start with the situation. thank you. sammy supplies, grain supplies from ukraine. does the departure of the rezone demonstrate that the deal which the you and helps broker will now hold you confident it will now hold? well, i think it is very good news to have seen the pictures of a cargo ship carrying more than 26000 tons of corn make its way from odessa to the boss 1st and now on its way to lebanon. whereas we know it's a country so dependent on food imports, we are very realistic. i think we need to take things one day at a time, one step at a time. they are more than 25 ships in ukrainian harbors that need to
6:34 pm
make their way out. this of course, this deal will cover is intended to cover all ships going in and out of those of those harbors. but things are working and they're working well today. and i think we can only be, be moved by the images that we've seen coming out of, of his stumble today, where ukrainian officials say 17 other ships. so now loaded, they're ready to leave. you confident they will leave soon full of grain. what we do expect more outbound movement term in the next few days, or what is important is that the berths in these are ports b fried. so then we can have inbound traffic coming in the world. food program has chartered a ship it plants to send in to a tow, a desert of pick up grain. as soon as it is that is a that is feasible,
6:35 pm
but you've had ships that have been stuck in in port a since the beginning of this conflict, they need to move out and then ships can then come in, oh, and be birth. so they can take the grain in that segue nicely to the point i was going to raise with you, which is with months of supplies in a stock pile, their ships need to come in as well in order to be able to, you know, to get those supplies out to the world. how confident are you, or when do you think we're going to start seeing some of those ships coming in? well those, those will be decisions. they'll be taken by the port operators, right? they though the people who run odessa and the 2 other ports will need to let us know when they can take in bound traffic. obviously we're gonna have to see some outbound traffic 1st. but we hope things will start moving oh, at a, at a quicker pace. soon, we can talk about the situation in yemen. the truce has been extended. what will
6:36 pm
that mean for aid efforts? well, this is another piece of good news and it's nice to be on your air to speak a bit about good news, but for ukraine and yemen, this will give our envoy a more breathing room to try to expand the truce of we want to see all the all the obligations and the promises made by the parties having to do with more oil coming into who data more flights coming out of santa more roads. b. e. reopen, entire ease and other governor. it's a and it also gives us the space to try to expand the agreement with a view ultimately to reach a political agreement amongst the parties in yemen for sustainable peace. but this is really that this news is really good news for the, the women, the men and the children of yemen. the civilians who have enjoyed years of conflict of bombings, of deprivation and of suffering frankly, is this truce leading to
6:37 pm
a peace agreement though. well, you know, again it's, it's about being realistic and taking things one step at a time. this is yet another, a extension of the truth. it's better than the alternative and any it shows that the parties are willing to continue to move in a positive, a direction. it, them, it will to mad a lot of hard work from all the parties involved. also from, or are you. an adverb is a good berg from, from regional players, including all mod, as you mentioned in your introduction, what, what all of us want to see is a peaceful yemen. and that with the way that's going to happen is threw up a sustainable political agreement. and that continues to be our goal. all right, thank you so much ethan to jerrick. sammy,

6:39 pm
a executive order as such. but it's part of a multi pronged approach by the by did administration to reverse the impact of the supreme court decision doing away with roe, the wade, the long standing precedent, which guaranteed a woman's right to choose. that this is the by an administration. now, gathering all its elements together in ways to explore in how to guarantee the woman's rights to reproductive health. now, this is going to be a multi agency task force which will be bringing together all the bodies who will try and achieve this. now, notably as well as that the department of justice in the last 24 hours has launched its 1st case against the state, which is introduced an abortion law, the state of idaho. so the department of justice is part of this as well, in terms of trying to reverse what it sees that the ravages of a supreme court decision. alright, thanks so much. mike, hanover,

say that the early forecast for the next rainy season, also pretty bleak mart. if, if rainy season fails, especially in somalia, we really are heading into unprecedented and very dangerous territory, even in the seventy's rainy season. what i'm afraid my history, if that happens, it's going to get much worse and getting into the history books. so there's obviously not a good thing with so many factors combining to cause this crisis. is there a one size fits all solution to this? i mean, sounds like a series of complicated solutions might be needed here or think in the long term that is correct, but in the short term, it's not complicated. what is needed is sustain support to ensure the w, i pay the other humanitarian act is, can reach the people most in the,
