6:20 am
a process and to have the legal framework in place, just in case experts say the government is trying to feel military gaps, presidency, japan, i think, as well as the street assessors for a number of years outlined deficiencies within the poli, stating that it is not fit for purpose and has not been for quite some time. and of course, as stated by the chinese government, this is part and parcel of what it means to be a great power. china already has the largest armed forces in the world with more than $3000000.00 military personnel, including military police, around 30 percent of them, all conscripts serving and mandatory 2 years since president she, japan came to power. the army also known as the p l. a. has undergoing rapid modernization, still exploits say some challenges remain. the lack of combat experience is a challenge for the purely however, i think there are bigger challenges for the appeal at the moment for them to turn

6:23 am
and 3 other countries recently bind impulse of ukrainian grain to prevent a lot. well, there's a grain can still transmit through them. it's for this form to find new clients, the field, but logistics are pushing up costs and not being able to export easily means millions of dollars worth of grain could be lost. usually at this time, if you all of the grading on this fall would have been sold, but because of the will, i don't, the problems linked to it. hoff of last is office is still here having to be stoked in the silos and in these huge plastics lease a few kilometers components folder. these rail transport companies trying to get things moving. we have here. european wiggins we saw already loaded the cranium drain. and since read it for transit to the police report to the guns for the manager says the was changed, everything transferred green before the invasion. now it's accounts for 50 percent
6:24 am
of the business. we had to lots of requests to, to support, to claim and fire farmers and for exports their grains into europe and from the mom. and so we started to construct a new drain terminal as one of the world's main grain produces ukraine's expos are central for its economies and to feed people around the world. however, he says, transporting it in such a vital time isn't just about supporting the war. it's also a way to build more connections with the european union. the keys is all tracked to join one day. natasha butler, which is era, so 50 west and ukraine. the authorities in ukraine have detained the head of the supreme court and a high level of corruption. private recording in m. p.

6:25 am
was detained in connection with the bribe as nearly $3000000.00. the country's onto corruption. watchdog says it's expose large scale file play of the course instead of phase to go off of cast, illustrate when it cools corruption of the highest levels of power. so that because presidents are 6 african countries, we'll send a piece mission to ukraine. i'm not sure as soon as possible. i'll be meeting with president vladimir pierson envelope them is lensky, to discuss a possible planned and wor. nicholas hack reports from dr. a piece initiative by 6 for getting nations mediating an end to the war in ukraine. the announcement was made by south african president, syria, run my post to lead us that i had occasion to speak to that is prison putting in prison in lansky. i agreed to that there would be willing to receive admission of the african heads of states,
6:26 am
and both must go and keep despite pressure from western countries, most african countries have abstain from voting on resolutions at the un security council condemning russia's invasion of ukraine. meanwhile, russia has been building close economic and military ties with states in africa since the war began. yeah, which i so green, i believe ukraine really needs to take steps forward to meet the countries of the african continent. we didn't work well for many years. we didn't pay attention. i think it's a big mistake. ukraine is when is the biggest exporters of weight to africa? russia is one of the largest exporters or fertilizer to the continent. since the war broke out food prices in africa have shut up, spreading wide spread discontent in africa. the you wouldn't want to 120000000 people could face hunger with red, becoming an affordable too many off. what would be the boston for africa country to go down resilience, you know, it's not, it's not as strong as the product. countries are not part of the world. so i think
6:27 am
if it comes to that, these factors, we can see western countries won't do it very much, actively engaged in the buzz decal process, but many are questioning whether the african piece initiative can succeed when others have failed. the heads of state of zambia synagogue, the republic of congo, uganda, egypt, and south africa are set to meet with the 2 leaders as soon as possible. at stake is not just peace in europe, but saving lives of many africans. nicholas hawk al jazeera the car. a heavy rain full is cool, was flooding across northern its lead, forcing hundreds of people to flee that homes or sees in venice se then preparing to activate a mobile barrier in the cities the gate and to save it from high time flooding. it comes as 2 weeks on to floods in the immediate romana region killed. 2 people the head of the company that created the artificial intelligence tool chat, g p t has one us senators, the a i needs regulation,
