2:01 am
a black sea corridor and won't guarantee their safety. ah, hello, there are more kyle, this is out there alive from doha. also coming up. a warning for oil companies from the u. s. president. lower prices all pay higher taxes. south korea's president pays his respects of the victims of a crowd crash. and so, as an investigation is launched and trials in iran for hundreds of people arrested during antique government protests. ah, russia says it's now unacceptable for ships carrying grain to pass through a black sea corridor. and it will no longer guarantee the safety of the vessels. it
2:02 am
comes days after moscow suspended participation in a turkish and un broke a deal. but 12 ships loaded with more than 350000 tons of grains still left ukraine's black seaports on monday. as the single is the most moved in a single day. since july and a mask as to james bay's reports for more than 3 months, this corridor through the black sea has been a humanitarian lifeline. the un says about 9000000 tons of grain has been transported. and it says, despite russia suspending its participation after b cranium drone attack on its fleet, the scheme will continue. they have suspended, they haven't withdrawn, they have suspended, and they haven't terminated. and the difference is the difference is very, very simple. the difference is that as parties to that black c grain initiative, they are still bound by it. but russia's defense ministry issued a statement saying the fact that the grain cargo ships was still using the black
2:03 am
sea root was unacceptable that followed these comments and rushes ambassador to the un. you receive the roman immortal. the russian side cannot guarantee the safety of civilian vessels participating in the black sea initiative. meanwhile, the putting this but we cannot allow an unimpeded passage of vessels without our inspection. and we will have to undertake our own measures to control what was allowed by the joint coordination center. without our consent, we will provide details and our conclusions and our approaches to this in the very near future. 3rd, big problems ahead for the un. how will insurance companies react? and what we're shipping firms do, if premiums skyrocket, it's also worth noting that the deal is only supposed to last until the 18th of november. will russia now agree to extend it? james bay's ouch is era at the united nations. i've got 2 more now on the impact of russia. decision wrestles ada is an stumble. here is the kill your district office
2:04 am
stumble where blacks emits both for us right behind me. there are tons of west hills anchored here waiting to be inspected by the joint coordination center and its stumble. and this is just a small portion of the west of anchored around its stumble. in total, $97.00 loaded west of and 15 inbound west have registered to be inspected by the coordination center. and according to the information that this coordination center has just provided, 809 more of them have lied to be reduced at for the, for the inspection. on monday, turkish and the united nations, more than 400 ships have passed through their booths for us carrion, 9300000 tons of the ukrainian grain to the international market. this number seems quite big, but just before the war, the number of ships care carrying ukrainian grain passing the boss for us were double off off of this, this number. so lexie is quite
2:05 am
a critical region. it accounts roughly around 30 percent off the global green trade and also more than 17 percent of the corn export globally. russia is number one green export in the world, and ukraine is ranked 5th, and majority of this trade is happening to black. so any, so any, any disruption in the black sea could further detail create the global food crisis . let's say in rich outs, and now he's in washington dc, and is joe political consultant and former us state department official. get to have you with us, actually going and tell us why russia has suspended its participation in this deal now? well, i think russia, like all the players in this conflict has an important domestic constituency to signal to. and it's been a bad month or 2 for the domestic constituency in russia,
2:06 am
with regards to the russian results on the battlefield, especially with regards to the naval aspect of it. it's interesting to hear russia say that it cannot guarantee the safety of civilian vessels on the black sea when it's become increasingly clear that they cannot guarantee the safety of their own vessels on the black sea. the attack last week. and another one over the weekend by unmanned naval vehicle surface vehicles, as well as unmanned aerial vehicles against russian ships, has shown the balance of power in the black. she does not favour russia. now in the same way that it did, perhaps when this 1st deal was i contemplated. ready so russia might have had sort of the veto power over anything that moves in the black sea 6 months ago. they don't have that now. and so i interpret the statements from moscow as more signaling to the domestic audience that looked like we still really can control the flow of grain. when the truth is they might be able to hit some ships coming out.
2:07 am
they have a lot to lose if they do that, but i think it's, it should be understood in the, in terms of the need both the signal or domestic audience and the slipping control over naval activity in the black sea that they actually have. so actually this suspended participation, it has minimal impact on the export of grain from ukraine. i mean, just to day we saw a lack of number of ships on the me through the black sea. yes, i think that's true so that this is one reason to believe that maybe this is more in word than indeed with regards to what the russians are saying. now look, i've watched the conflicts in ukraine and syria and elsewhere. i know if the russians want to sink civilian ships with drain, they'll do that, and they can sink some of that can't sink all of them, but they would lose as well. there's a number of reasons that this makes bad sense for russia to do it. they can't do it completely and they would be shooting themselves in the foot to do so because their own grain exports would be affected. as would they're very thin level of
2:08 am
international legitimacy. the joint coordination center that she referenced earlier in the report, for instance, is one of the few examples of where russia is cooperating with the international community, the western nations. and also the receivers of this grain to do something that's, that's viewed as legitimate international activity. and when they're in blatant violation of so many international hoss through their violations against ukraine, i don't think they wanna strip that last level of legitimacy than they have. so there's a lot of reasons that that would be self defeating for the russians to do. and as you pointed out, there's reasons to think they can't actually do it effectively, even if they say they'd like to say that is how much effort said the international community be spending right now on trying to bring law said back in the day. busy and if, if they are what leverage to they have to have dismissal. like i think we've got a couple of options here that the 1st is if you want to play real hardball with russia, there could be an attempt to provide armed escort, fork, go green,
2:09 am
carrying vehicles out. and i think the vulnerability of the russian navy in the black she has been revealed. so that's one option. the 2nd option would be to think that maybe the russians are just bluffing. or like i said they're, they're messaging the domestic audience and just wait. and let this kind of play out a 3rd option, and probably the most prudent is to reach out and to, to reinforce to moscow that this war will end. at some point, it's not going well for the russians. they don't want to make it any more painful for themselves at the when, when the peace talks ultimately come than they have to. and one way to make sure that there's a reasonable deal for russia when they lose this war because they're going to lose this war. but do they lose it on catastrophic terms or do they lose it on mutually acceptable terms? i guess we'd say one way to do that is to show at least a minimum respect for human rights and for the world food market and for 3rd parties that are not combatants. and they could do that by staying in the deal. so i think engaging diplomatically for the west, not ignoring it,
2:10 am
and not stamping our feet and being much more aggressive in response, not overreacting. i think that's the right thing. reach out, talk to moscow, remind them of their responsibilities under the deal. and underline how this can get worse if they don't allow the deal to move forward. i think that's prudent policy. ok, let's athens great saint. saint fast. second times genius. thank you. good. a topic . us president joe biden has told oil and gas companies to lower energy and petrol prices for americans all face a higher tax rate on their record profits biden's been threatening when full tanks against oil johnson the lead up to the midterm elections. he says many oil companies have been profiteering from the war and ukraine calling their profit, outrageous. gimme a break, enough is enough. welcome, a capitalist, you've heard me say this before. i have no problem. the corporations turn fair profit getting a return on their investment and innovation. but this is my remotely what's happening, or companies record profits a day or not,
2:11 am
because to doing something new or innovative. their profits are a windfall of war windfall from the conflict. as robin g, ukraine, and hurting tens of millions of people around the globe. you know, at a time of war and he come to receiving a storage one pro property like this has a responsibility to act beyond the narrow self interest of its executive shareholders. and jordan joins us now from washington, d. c. and was pretty strong, was from by not pulling any punches against the oil and gas companies and just a week out from midterm elections. well, in the context of next week's mid term elections, certainly the president is using what we call the power of his bully pulpit. to try to communicate to us voters that he is very much aware of the hardships that they have been enduring. not just because of the post war our economic situation. but
2:12 am
certainly because of the global oil shortages that developed after russia invaded ukraine back on february 24th, a very simply, if the amount of of supply goes down, the price goes up, assuming that everyone who wanted something before still wants it. so this is something that the bind administration has been trying to address in the past, i 8 months or so. now, of course, even though the price of gasoline has dropped from an average high of about $5.00 or so to about $3.75, people are still concerned about the price of gas. it's sort of the bell whether figure that people use for ranking the of performance of the economy. and so what biden is saying by saying that he wants to perhaps impose a windfall tax on these profits, is signaling that he is very much aware of the economic cost that people are
2:13 am
incurring in this particular moment in time. and so it's, it's coming out, but there's nothing that realistically can happen in the next 8 days. congress won't be back until after next, tuesday's elections. and even though some congressional democrats have already put forward an idea to try to tax some of what is considered excess profit, it's not clear that there's going to be enough support in congress to pass that kind of legislation, at least before the end of the year okay, most jordan, many thanks for that. update that from washington d. c. also a had hair on al jazeera, a silly and truck has hitting the brakes, blocking roads to protest the election victory of new. that's a silva and an influx in of asylum seekers needing shelter in new york city forces the mass, declare a state of emergency. ah
2:14 am
hello. we've got a lot of dry and settled weather for much of north america much but not all. we do still have some disturb weather around there, the central plains easing up towards the midwest than that'll make its way a further east was clearing out of the way. bryce guy's coming back. he missed a warm sunshine, very different story towards the year north west. second, north, west into british columbia band of cloud and rain, sleet, and snow coming in here and that wet weather, making its way all the way down through oregon, into a good part of california. so the be some snow of the cascades may be good, dusting a snow to over the sierra nevada mountains eating further eastwards as we go through wednesday. kula from cal we top temperature minus 4 celsius. bless that warmth elsewhere we getting into the twenty's not cheap at 21 celsius there for dc,
2:15 am
getting up around 19 degrees there in new york now into the caribbean. here we have this little clutch of sir thunder storms rumbling away. it is now a developing tropical store may from become a hurricane. as we go into the middle part of the week, you see that circulation just gathering. and it looks likely to run into believe sometime around wednesday in to work thursday, some very wet and we do have a coming through here, scattering a showers coming in behind, sunshine and showers for these mountains. ah, a sense of belonging? it might be says it then it's been like this in the everyday heroes keeping communities together. hey timmy them? good, good. send them for incidentals. my phone, a g 0 visits the canyon town of e 10. that produces some of the worlds fastest runners, and where a terrible crime has led to a reckoning with gender based violence. a sense of community on a jazeera,
2:16 am
hulu. ah. ah no, again, you're watching out is there a has a reminder of our top stories this our russia says it's unacceptable for ships carrying grain to pass through a black sea corridor and it will no longer guarantee the safety of the vessels. moscow has suspended participation in a turkish and un broke a deal. and just present, joe biden has told oil and gas companies to lower energy and petrol prices for americans. all face a higher tax rate on their record. profits are the world's biggest oil companies
2:17 am
have registered profits of more than a 170000000000 dollars this year. with analysts saying more gains on the way britain shell and frances total energies reported. profits of 59000000000 for the 1st 9 months of 2022. as compared to just over 24000000000 in the same period. last year. he was rival chevron and exxon mobil reported year to date. earnings in the range of 70000000000 and 2021 they took in around 25000000000 experts say the earning surge as a direct result of russia's invasion of ukraine. the introduction of wind full taxes on profits in europe has had little impact. let's bring in the api, it were gender in new york, now he's the director of oil market research for energy intelligence as well. how do you think big companies in the u. s. are going to respond to this biden threat of a windfall tax? yeah, thanks for having me. yeah. you know, i think, i think 1st of all,
2:18 am
i know they are, i think they're not really going to be responding in any meaningful way. you know, i think they are in a sort of going about business as, as it's proceeding, whether it's upstream or they're downstream. businesses are just kind of taking what the market is giving them. i'm so i don't really, you know, expect much of a response. i think that, you know, the few comments we've seen over the recent past few weeks, some few months, you know, or simply just that, you know, policy should be supportive of the industry instead of you're in sort of sort of antagonizing. so i don't really expect that much of a direct response to this. you may hear from industry groups and others will not companies directly because our correspond to this member guys said, this is more of a message for the mid term electorate. will be going to the polls in a weeks i'm worried about the economy and that nothing realistically is going to go through congress in the next 8 days. if a toll, why would it be so difficult to get a law on raising taxes through congress?
2:19 am
yeah, 1st of all, i mean i think that's right. i think it's really just kind of a talking point, mature messaging and you know, whether you're talking about current congress or future congress, right. depending on what happens with the terms and how it looks from january on words, i'm neither why i think you're going to see a much headway in this, ah, ah, in the session. no. the, the current congress. i mean, i think getting, getting something like this through folks like senator joe match and, and what not, i think is simply a nonstarter am and then you certainly have a change in the house, a change in the senate to republican side. i think, i think, i think a proposal like this will with good not really even be a you make a past the floor so. so either way, i mean, i think, i think, you know, the realistic chances are of legislation coming in this form are, are near 0. whether it's this, this kind of congress or the next. anyway, the experts to say that the introduction of windfall taxes on profits in europe has
2:20 am
had little impact when it's not the case because the u. k. has raised nearly $6000000000.00 and it's when full tax on its energy and gas companies. yeah, i mean, i would say i would just say 2 things. i think one, i think the, the, the, the electorate and the consumer and the can be the voter in the us. very different . i think you know, the, the reception to win for profit, jackson get more government interference and kind of free market business. i think would be poorly. i actually think there's a decent chance of the windfall profit tax discussion could also back par in some way leading up to mid term. so i think, i think that's part of it. i'm, i think the 2nd part of it is, you know, i think the one thing that the ministration has done is, is try to at least put out of, you know, phrases here and there to try to encourage production writing cards, domestic production tax, if it were you pathetic lee,
2:21 am
i'd go through would have the opposite effect, right. but it would only be got more retrenchment from companies, you know, more kind of, you know, keeping close to their best. so i think i think over the medium term it would it would also be self defeating ok. abby retention: great get your thoughts. thanks for joining us from new york. thank you. 9 people have been arrested in connection with the pedestrian bridge collapse in western india, at least a 141. people died when the structure can pass on sunday. just days after it was finished, renovating hundreds fell into the river below the rest of the roll associated with a company that maintains a bridge being investigated for culpable on the sides. south class government has promised a thorough and transparent investigation into a crowd surge that killed a 150 people, celebrating halloween and so on. monday president yoon, so kill joined mourners at the shrine in their honor. but mcbride reports still
2:22 am
shocked by the scale of the tragedy. south korea is now a nation in morning. memorial alters have been set up in cities across the country, as people line up quietly and patiently to pay their respects legal kissing materially done more to me. i feel terrible that these young people have fallen without having blossomed because of the faults of us in the older generations says, your attorney, there is a father of her child, it hurts my heart so much power. if there is a festival like this, again, i believe things will be done appropriately to something like this is not repeated . among those grieving a grandfather who lost 2 grandchildren in the tragedy. hunting on, do they both went over to your husband? i could get in touch with them initially. now the bodies lying in hospital. i feel so sorry as a grandfather for not being able to do anything. also paying his respects the
2:23 am
president in so kill who has promised to review crowd control measures at future events. there are strict rules and guidelines for organized gatherings, such as rallies and protests, but not for unofficial st. festivals. a south korea begins this period of morning. there is a sense of disbelief that this tragedy could have happened in a society renowned for self control and following the rules. and why it seems nobody anticipated the crush of people that gathered with such deadly consequences . at a briefing from the government emergency response, team reporters repeatedly asked why more police were not on duty to handle crowd control. instead of tackling crime casual when it comes to public gatherings, the police have been focusing on crammed prevention and illegal crack done rather than on the spot control. the government has also announced financial support to help families pay for the many funerals that will take place in the coming days. as
2:24 am
well as medical expenses for the scores who were injured. once the morning period is over, there will likely be fundamental changes in the way all future public gatherings are controlled. but it has taken this halloween tragedy for that to happen. rob mcbride al jazeera, so trials are underway in iran for hundreds of people charged during ongoing antique government protests officials of issued new warnings to people. thinking about joining the demonstrations dawson jabari has the latest from terran, more warnings from high ranking officials in iran for protesters, thinking about going out onto the streets this time from the head of the countries judiciary. all on the same as are you who urged people to be careful. and he said that those who intend to confront the establishment in order to topple it and have connections to foreign entities will be punished based on legal principles. his
2:25 am
comments come, as we've also been hearing from the head of the judiciary from tehran province, who said that another 700 indictments have been issued. so in total, just over a 1000, people are going to be facing charges in court. we understand that some of those charges include sabotaged destroying public property murder, inciting unrest, and $300.00 over $300.00 of those. people have now been in court since saturday. this seems to come at a time when we are seeing the demonstrations really focus in specific areas in the country. and there is a sense that the officials here are reaching their last straw when it comes to tolerating any kind of unrest that is continuing for the 7th week in this country. for the present jebel, sorrow has still not publicly conceded sundays election, which he lost a little silva by just over one percent truck of blocks. major roads and multiple

2:27 am
i am right now. they're both going out of supporters. they're gathering here, not happy with the results. again, we're supporting the truck drivers now. there were gathering together sharing some food and they're waiting for the president to speak. they want to know what the president thinks about sunday selection, whether he will acknowledge those results earlier today where the presidential palace was not silent, but i'm crested in this situation in this country. we rested in the remaining trial and that's not telling the population open seating the people calling the president . but it was nice to buy the electro tribune. i'll ask who's going to be this country next rested in number of migrants attempting to cross into the united states. as more than doubled since, present, joe biden took office in 2020 as making immigration, a hot button issue in the upcoming midterm elections. kristen salumi report from
