10:04 pm
pedestrian crossing and tries slowly and, and accelerates. den for me, it was done on purpose, finishes up. this day incident happened very near the scene of another tragedy in december, 2016 an extremist job, his truck into a crowd at a christmas market, killing 12 people and enjoying dozens, a painful memory revived by today's incident. and our corresponded benjamin alvarez gruber, has more on what happened today. here in berlin. we just heard it in the report. the teacher there was killed was with those teenagers with those students that were here in the capitalist school in hassar as we just heard. sadly, the sad coincidence is that the city where this group came from is only located a few kilometers away from a place where we had a car plowing into a carnival possession. in february of 2020. there are still people in hospital,
10:05 pm
the latest information that we got is that there are 20 people that are injured, 5 of them with life threatening injuries. and for many of those other injured people and for the family members and relatives and friends behind me, where you can see that there are still a lot of people standing there, get this psychological support as the investigation continues. yeah, the investigation did years because people are still asking it or did, did the driver, did he mean to plow into the crowd of people or, or was this an accident? i mean, what do we know tonight? it's right. it's not still clear. a police asked the public to not speculate on what happened according to eye witnesses. the car went out from the street on to the side, work them back to the streets and on that side it turned to the right and into a shop there. the driver was taken away by those shop as they were there and whether handed over to police. so it's still open whether it was an accident or it
10:06 pm
was deliberate investigation is still ongoing. and we hope to hear later today any updates by police and by those who have been here at the scene since the early morning. and benjamin douglas, there was a service for the victims of this incident to do. what can you tell us about that? as absolutely right, there was a service where the mayor of the lyn francisco gift they also attended with several local and regional at politicians. i spoke to one of the people that was in that a in that little yeah, commemoration. there was here that the session that in the church, this church is session and they told me they lasted around 20 men as though a lot of passer buys. that also attended this church serve as it was public, several other politicians and family members that may also have gathered there that happened here at around 7. and there were a lot of people, of course,
10:07 pm
since the news came and the information that this happened here at the brights had plans that a place that saw this terror sock, at this christmas market a few years ago with many of course, immediately having those images in their had and is we're waiting for the confirmation to hear what actually happened and what were the motives off at this 29 year old. that was arrested many immediately think back to the time and here next to this area. there are also some protections that they were installed after that terror attack. yeah, i think a lot of people were thinking back to that christmas market attack and asking themselves if this was going to be a repeat of that. a correspond benjamin alvarez group to night in downtown berlin. benjamin, thank you for now to the war in ukraine talks today between russia and turkey on how to get grain out of ukraine, have not yielded any breakthrough. ukraine was not even at the talks. russian foreign minister say gazed glove. rob says that moscow is ready to ensure the
10:08 pm
safety of ships leaving ukrainian ports if ukraine de minds its waters 1st. but ukraine says that will not happen as long as the russian threat exists. tens of millions of tons of wheat, corn, and sunflower oil have been stuck in ports since the war began 3 months ago. and speaking of a press conference in the anchor rhetoric he to day turkey's foreign minister said more about this impasse, the other good. that could is it, i'd like to say that the global food crisis is a real crisis. we should not look at it as only exporting ukrainian green products, graduated inject hollywood, we should look at it as exporting both ukrainian and that russian green products and fetch eliza buck miclasa. or earlier i spoke with her who responded dorian jones from instant bull. and he described how turkey's foreign minister and russia's foreign minister do not see the same thing when it comes to help to get
10:09 pm
that grain out of those ports. well, as i inches seeing a russian foreman, cecilia oliver av didn't seem to share the, the world's urgency over getting this suit grain into the international market, saying that the world soaring we price is, is nothing to do with the ukrainian conflict. it says, he said the written only counts for less than one percent of global output. now that was immediately contradicted by the turkish for mr. michael chavo. surely, who said that is, is that really very important issue, but lack of didn't really seem to have a urgency. he said that they are in the process of opening up ports the, to the, to a russian forces have, sees. and these a ukraine was welcome to send their wheat to those fulton and export them from there. now that's an obvious, no go from keith's point of view. and they laugh, proceed if they want to send it from their own ports and they have to d, mind the thoughts to what are the ships to leave. now keith is very reluctant to do that because it fears russia will use that an opportunity to attack odessa. this
10:10 pm
key port, which has so far, been protected by these mines. so at the moment it does seem to be little progress has been made. chavel shola did say that they had, they are close to reaching a mechanism that would allow ships, a common go and address russian concerns or any ships going to ukraine won't carrying arms. but we seem, far, far away from the ever coming to force at the moment. and this will reiterate fears and concerns of moscow is possibly using this soaring weight. we price crisis as further lavish on the international community. that was dorian jones. they're reporting from istanbul will, after weeks of intense fighting, ukrainian forces have retreated to the outskirts of the city of several don't ask the regions governor saying that fighting in the industrial city continues. russian forces are also showing the city of lucy shuns which ukraine still controls. now russia now controls were the 90 percent of lu hans, one of the 2 provinces that make up ukraine's eastern don boss.
10:11 pm
earlier i asked the w correspondent, nick connelly in odessa. how big of a blow the poor back from several don't ask is for ukraine when the russians are making steady gains will be at a very, very small scale. i think it has to be remember time time again, that russia started this war aiming to take the whole country in a matter of days. first they failed in the north to take care of, then they failed to take heart give you credit, 2nd city city in the east. only about 40 comes from the border now they've thrown everything they have at that very small, short stretch of the front lines in dumbass. and they are making progress, but much, much slower than they had hoped. basically, experts have been predicting as sort of the next to fall for weeks now and it just hasn't happened. now we hear from the region that about temp sent to city. large industrial areas remain in ukrainian hands. and i think that will be seen as a tactical win for the kings. they basically bound so many russian troops there that they've managed to slow them down so long. the russians of the going for
10:12 pm
basically all out because there's a rush, a day, big holiday and a couple days time. and we've heard that russian generals now under lot of pressure from their commanders to have something to show for all their efforts and all the russian deaths after saunders, 1st few days and marable of some months into this will. russia basically hasn't overrun any major city. so real pressure on them to make a difference as the ukrainians. i think that has to be predicted. i think they will be happy that they've forced the russians to spend so many days and weeks trying to get it nickel. what about this talk of ukraine planning? a counter offensive this month is ukraine. is it in a position to actually do their i think it's not quite there yet. as we've seen, tom tom again with these arguments in these pretty open diplomatic disagreements between ukraine and lots of european partners. germany included about the scale and the speed of weapons deliveries. ukraine really, basically building all its hopes on choose restocking of arms on a scale,
10:13 pm
previously unthinkable. at the same time as russia is using, it's ammunitions it's weapon systems and huge numbers losing it. it's a, it's estimated about $2.00 to $3.00 times more soldiers than the ukrainians day for day, often sending them into very, very dangerous battles, just to take small bits of territory with seniors. so lots of russian commanders generals losing their lives because they're being sent into the trenches to the front lines. so the expectation here is that time is working in ukraine's favor. if you crank and hold out and make russia pay a high price for a few kilometers here and a few clumps there. and then by the end of the summer, when those western arms really reach here in big numbers, they'll be able to deal with a weakened and tired russian opponent and push them back to the borders of ukraine . and let me ask you the question, of course, how to get all of this grain out of ukraine. me for that to happen. moscow says that ukraine asked a d mine it's harbors. do you see any chance of that happening? i think it's very, very unlikely. that's been happening time soon. there just isn't the trust here
10:14 pm
that the russians won't take advantage of a di mind access to odessa, say where i am now. a city that has huge relevance is future, symbolic in terms of history will, will, to, in terms of the kind of russian imagination somewhere that the russian leadership would dearly like to take from ukraine. and given russia's claims that there was no plan to invade ukraine back in january, february, i think the idea that the criminal now says it wouldn't take advantage of that is not something that's really given any credence to we've heard from middle calabria, ukraine's foreign minister. he's called for anti anti, but ship rockets, more of them for ukraine to be able to defend its coasts, in case if those mines go, the russians do decide to come in. and also some kind of guarantees from comes to like turkey that are trying to mediate here, that if russia were to disrespect disagreement that they would also commit some kind of military force to protect and ukraine's board. it's very difficult to see that turkey would want to go there, given that it's really enjoying, at the moment this was were as basically the only country that has good relations with the western and russia, and with ukraine and russia. so it's
10:15 pm
a difficult situation and one in which we're just getting reports daily from the occupied territories in ukraine of russia, taking out grain in huge quantities to then sell basically illegally on the gray market under fateful forge documents as russian grain to countries like turkey and other middle eastern countries, so a pretty at da situation and with the harvest here in a couple weeks time expected in this part of the country. lots of new grain and nowhere to put it. and farmers going unpaid. yeah. so horrible situation for everyone. corresponding to connelly tonight in odessa. nick, thank you. says, here are some of the other stories now that are making headlines around the world. the european parliament has approved a draft law banning the sale of new carbon dioxide emitting vehicles that have set to take effect in the year 2035. if all members of the european union say yes to the plan, lebanon's army is battling to contain a massive blaze and the country's largest pine force. the fire broke out in the north of the country tuesday night. officials say they suspect arson. in tunisia,
10:16 pm
dozens of warriors and judges have rallied outside the capitals courts following the dismissal of 57 judges. president sayed has come under fire for interfering with the judiciary. as he tightened his grip on power, the president dissolved parliament back in april after sacking. the government last year belgium's king philip is on the 6th day trip to the democratic republic of congo. the trip is seen as a chance for reconciliation between the 2 nations. now the king met with the congolese president and reiterated his deepest regrets for belgium's colonial past . during belgium's rule, millions of congolese were killed, mutilated, or died of disease as the country's resources were exploit. if a more now want to bring in genevieve cunning does,
10:17 pm
she is the co coordinator of the collective colonial memory and fight against discrimination. she's in belgium. she joins us from brussels. it's good to have you on the program. you know, the king is in congo in your opinion, what would be the best outcome of this visit? oh, thank you so much for the invitation. at 1st. i would say that and there is no like better outcome. i'll just say that and just to speech that's the king gave today in a step in the right direction for relationship between the 2 countries. because the speech was about recognizing the past with minimizing what the cooling system was. so it was really a good, good step in the right direction. and i just hope that this will be the beginning
10:18 pm
of the relationship where the states treat each other as equals. this is about a lot more than just the king. there was in it belgium's brutal history in congo and the region is well documented. has belgium as it began reckoning with its colonial patched. yeah, belgium is trying to work on its colonial path. sealants are happening here. now. i would say that it's quite late because our collective was funded like 10 years ago in 2012. and at this time we were saying to political, to, to the politic sorry that they needed to, to work on, on the economy impact. because these cutting our past has consequences today on the african decent people leaving belgium. and this is like something that we say seems 10 years now and belgium finally, the badge and state. the political move or finally decided
10:19 pm
to start working on is going to el paso in 2020 and what so what does that look like to the v? i mean, are we talking about the history that's told in schools, you know, give me a tangible example of how the, the wrongs of the past can be addressed legitimately in the present. ok. so these really have to be global. for example, hold a moment. we have a commission that is working on the can you pass. this is only the beginning. what we say is that, for example, the history of quoting is ation needs to be taught in schools. because for the moment it is not something mandatory in the belgian schools to learn about the colonization. so you have some times as students that come out of school. and i didn't know, for example, that don't know, sorry, that belgium had a colony in the past. and it's a very, it's, it's
10:20 pm
a big problem because we say that if we don't know the past, we cannot understand the present nor build the future here in belgium. so, to me, yeah, i was going to ask you, i mean, when you suggest, for example, that, you know, colonial history be taught in schools and there's pushback. how is it justified? i mean, how do they, the people that you're working with? how did they tell you that they think colonial history should not be taught? this is mainly because um, in belgium they are coming out packed before the one before like like at 2020. now we just didn't pick about it and oh it was like something very close to elling belgium. we didn't speak about it. so people were very, i would say maybe ashamed because out when we say ok, you need to speak about that in school. it means you have to speak about everything
10:21 pm
and when for the last 6 years, i didn't put that in the history book. you didn't, you didn't speak about the exemption of cutting zation. how can you know, you know, be able to speak without being ashamed of pudding and because we just never spoke about it. and so, yeah, i think that it was like a feeling of shame to speak about. yeah. genevieve can in the we appreciate your time and your insights tonight. thank you. you're welcome. you're watching the w news still to come, dinosaur dystopian returns to the big screen with the latest installment of the jurassic action movie franchise. i know you're excited. but 1st, india facing international criticism and pro church after spokespersons for the ruling b. j. people already made derogatory comments about the prophet muhammad gulf states
