prime minister mario draggy after the collapse of his national unity government. the president has asked mister drago to remain in post as caretaker liter. analysts say his departure could not have come at a worse time for italy and for europe. drawing his trip to the presidential palace to submit her 2nd resignation within a week, has launched yet another phase of turmoil in italian politics. he was originally appointed to the rule of prime minister to help is totally recovered from the impact of covert yet a grip on his spluttering economy and implement economic reforms. those issues have not gone away and if anything have become more pressing, his resignation has left many italians, worried about the future. adelcia delicate moment that i think it was a reckless move. not to bear in mind. everything that is happening globally with

the war and the ongoing pandemic thought by which they live. it really is of the right norman for a government crisis up but, but this should have been the mom to get back on her feet. so they could not the moment to stop not being cited. let's hope everything goes well the longest. and the problem will be solved on the la, where i wanna, unquote, eco, the good to you. i will be. the political crisis began a week ago when one of the parties and drug is coalition. government refused to back an economic package that prompted him to tender his resignation. for the 1st time, it is president asked him to stay on and to try and form a stable government draggy 2nd resignation. after 2 more coalition parties brought ranks brings the curtain down on that effort. on thursday evening,

italy's president sandra monterey le deserve parliament clearing the way for new elections to be held on september 25th. the mand up super mario has been asked to remain an office in the caretaker role until a new prime minister is chosen. earlier i spoke about this to dr. mateo garalia, a research associate in politics and international relations at the university of oxford. and i asked him what we can expect from mario drago in his role as caretaker, leader, until a new prime minister is chosen. he will try to lock in the reforms he had started over last year and a half a leave you to receive something original. 250000000000 yours from european union recovery package, missouri has been working on that annual. tried to lock him. he's reformed. so that he will stay, they will not dismantled my next goal, that he will not be able to pass the budget more that will because indeed for,

for next year. but in parliament probably between november and summer. all right. it only has never faced an election campaign in summer, and that is for a reason like many southern european nations like basically comes to a standstill in the hot months. the cities empty out and people flew to the beach a. so what does that campaign going to look like? yeah, it is going to be peculiar, but i don't think only because of the summer time. and there is extremely time for political parties to submit their documentation that is necessary for running the election. so times are tied from an administrative point of view. also there will be a reduction in the number of seats available in apartment. so you could expect in fighting with the parking to be on the ticket to be you may county the election and you could expect more split. we will ready to within the 5 movement, there's been a split and you could expect more people leaving their parties trying to find

somewhere somewhere else where they can fit. so an interesting scenario or painting their things as they are now. who is the front runner for these elections and september? if you look at opinion polls, you have a coalition made up by your brothers. i believe this is an extreme right wing political party, the legal north, and the one with northern leak. again, except for big rifling parties and portfolio, but it was going to kill there altogether. coming to something between 45 and 50 percent in all of those. and you can in polls, you don't have to foster movement somewhere between 10 and 15 percent. and the democratic party, something similar to the german social democrats in the range of 2025 percent, to which you could add some out or left wing and green parties so that they would get to about 2 to 5 percent of the book. that's what we've done. however, i think what's very interesting to see is the fact that you have a lot of italians that are extremely cross money that was seen

as extremely on us from the sears and comp them think the economies are not used to expect from their petitions. and so i would be surprised if there were not to be some significant changes when it comes to in both color. my want to punish the parties that brought my brain when they got in the line. thank you so much. and maria drawings, resignation has implications in the you to our correspondence. jack park told us how the news from italy went down in brussels while it's it will be a huge heavy to see a leader change. i think it's safe to say that here in brussels and indeed across the capitals of the european union, mario druggie is an extremely popular figure firstly, because he's come across a stable. secondly, because not only has he told the e u line country to many of his predecessors, he's actually advanced in greatly participated in

a lot mainly because of his history as the president of the european central bank. he understands europe. he knows how it works. he knows how the you works and also he's extremely pro european, i think the broad support that he has actually felt in italy and continues to feel has extended here in brussels. we saw, for instance, him attending that visit to cave, alongside olaf shows the german chancellor and france president emanuel micron. he's been extremely strong on support the ukraine. in fact, he was one of the 1st leaders to really come out strongly at and suggest that ukraine should be allowed a quick, an entry into the european union and application processes and accession country. and we already know now they have been granted that position to be an e n e you accession country. so a lot of that is gonna gonna change. now, i think aeroplane central bank has raised its key interest rates for the 1st time in 11 years. the hike of half a percentage point is bigger than expected and brings an end to the era of negative

interest rates. the move hames to combat soaring inflation and the euro is owned by the e. c. b president warned of a darkening economic outlook. prices continue to sore. many consumers are particularly worried by the rise in the cost of food. people face almost daily hikes and the cost of living, including the price of energy for cooking and fuel for their cars. all this has now prompted the european central bank to rethink its strategy. the c b raise key rates by 0.5 percentage points. which was more than anticipated over it. we expect inflation to remain undesirable the high for some time owing to continued pressure from energy and food prices and pipeline pressures in the pricing chain. higher inflation pressures are also stemming from the depreciation of the euro

exchange rate. this makes many imports from abroad, more expensive. the c b's move means that high street banks will start paying interest on people savings again. but the flip side, as the borrowing from the bank will be more expensive, which will impact things like financing a new car. and it will hit the housing market hard mortgage rates of already more than tripled, making the dream of owning their own house, unattainable for many. and let's take a look at some other stories making headlines around the world today. he was presidential biden, has tested positive for coven 19. the white house says he's experiencing very mild symptoms. a spokesperson added that the president would continue to carry out his duties and had started a course of the antiviral drug packs. lavet, brazilian politician lula da silva, has been chosen as the candidate to take on shy your ball so narrow in the

presidential election. this here, he has twice been president before being imprisoned on corruption charges that were later overturned. he's currently the favorites to win the vote in october. anyway, i'm gary and foreign minister peter c. r a t o is traveling to moscow to discuss buying more russian gas, hungary rolling feet as parties. and the move was to ensure the countries energy security as comes as a european union works to end its reliance on russian gas after rushes invasion of ukraine. that same russian gas is now flowing again through the north stream, one pipeline into germany having resumed following scheduled maintenance work. there had been fears that moscow would keep the tap switched off in response to european sanctions over its invasion of ukraine. but the head of germany's energy regulator says his country is still at russia's mercy, and berlin is making preparations for a possible winter energy crisis. look mean on germany's baltic coast. this is where

the north stream one pipeline ends. russian gas has now started flowing again after a 10 day shut down for maintenance. that's a bit of a relief for germany, but not an end to its worries, with gas still flowing at only 40 per cent of capacity. similar to the flow before the shut down russia cut deliveries through the pipe in mid june, citing technical concerns. germany's economy and climate minister dismissed those claims. as host, the alleged technical problems are just a pretext, and the real background is politico additional undergone. it is the opposite of a guarantee of energy security in euro charge. in fact, russia is increasingly becoming an insecurity factor in our energy system in our kitchen. so despite the resume gas flow, hubig announced another package of measures to secure germany's energy supplied. they include increasing the minimum amount gas storage facilities must contain

making it easier to re open environmentally unfriendly coal fired power stations. as well as energy saving measures in public buildings liberal. i'm like, we need to be prepared beyond the short term. the winter is yet to come and that will only be the 1st winter. all our models for the future show the following winter will also be a challenge for this country and for europe. so how worried are people in germany about the coming winter? as much, i'm very worried as one should be as got things always change. so sometimes it's one way then it's a different way. things might be difficult for a couple of years, may be 5, and then it will all change again and you're afraid of winter? nope. godaddy or i think it will be especially hard for people on low incomes because they get so cold in winter. so i'm worried about how the mood in the country will change. every one is freezing. lumps firm of root and you'd have given

this code in energy security crisis seems to have been averted for now. but germany and europe are bracing for a potentially cold winter ahead. a crane says russian shelling has killed 3 people and wounded nearly 20 others and its 2nd largest city car. keith russian missiles also destroyed a school in the city of crime, a tourist in the eastern don bass region. meanwhile, keep as training soldiers to use new longer range weapons arriving from the west, which russia claims is forcing it to widen it's offensive. this is all that remains of a school in the ukrainian city of cram authors. russian missiles destroyed this building and several homes near by. the number of casualties was not immediately known. as rescuers dug through the rubble in search of people, possibly trapped inside. a made relentless russian shelling, regional officials and eastern and southern ukraine have been urging civilians to

evacuate. but that is not an easy option for the elderly or frail room or valuable bush. oh it was oh, i could not believe it to like you to when we were under the rubble the will to live was thereafter all water. so we took ourselves out with a hums, were doing what health could we do elsewhere in ukraine? the military is training its soldiers to use new weapons. currently arriving from the west, key of hopes that the new anti tank rocket launchers and mortars will change the tide of the war in their favor. earlier washington announced it was sending even more longer range arms to ukraine. as the russia has criticized the west, saying moscow has no choice but to expand its war aims in ukraine. permitted the walker cause of causes west pause, more remote long range weapons, such as high miles into ukraine in an impotent rage, or in

a desire to exacerbate the situation as much as possible to claim supported dogs. main same geographical tasks of these special operations will extend still further from a current line of softness. movie showed good support, but in an interview with d, w, a. germany's foreign minister under lena bear, bog dismissed russia's argument that it's being forced to widen, is offensive in ukraine because of western weapons deliveries, defend russia using every time a different argument. um, so this time it's so because of the military support they are saying, but they have been attacking key if and on the part of ukraine before. so it's just a new propaganda from the russian side. meanwhile, russian forces continue to had civilian targets. not only on the front lines, but in cities and towns throughout ukraine. earlier i asked military analysts like martin a fellow at the department of war studies at king's college in london. what rush

has expanded goals mean for the future of this conflict? i think as you mentioned in your package, this is just more about the throughout the war since february. they've been trying to be government focus on focusing on the south by the in reality, what's been happening is over the last 2 or 3 months they've been focusing on their offensive in don't bass while the ukrainians being taking lots of territory in the south. and that caused the where to focus on, on the south losing the territory that the west says it will challenge any annexation and some more heavy weapons. and some very vocal critics say that that'll only drag out a war. they believe ukraine is bound to lose sooner or later. where do you stand on that? i think if you assume that you claim going to lose the war, don't and weapons, then ukraine is going to lose the war. i think actually if you look at the

fundamentals, ukraine is a fight on its hope. her tree is morabe sky high and that there and divide who rushes fighting? a war with the choice with poorly trained come scripts and grow. i think you cry and can win this for the sake of the appropriate way to do so. what do you think about the much talked about war fatigue in the west? i think that's significant. i think we're entering a period now where we have 3 or 4 months before winter o. c windsor is when things start change because then russia has leave us over your sickly germany in terms of gas supply. i'm so there is a bit of a real problem where ukraine needs to make some progress over the next 3 or 4 months. overall, it needs to continue my produce at the next 3 or 4 months. so that the weapons that the west is supplying are seen to be effective or continue to be seen to be

effective. i think that if they don't show will continue show progress before say, october or november, it starts to get out. then we may see programs over the winter in terms of this western russia says peace is possible, but on their terms terms that are unclear, but certainly unacceptable to ukraine when conditions do you think need to be created to find a negotiated solution to this growth and conflict well, i think for the ukrainians, they only have one demand today, which is the russia leaves their sovereign territory. and i can see that point, because previously in 2014, when russia was not passing this book effectively, the annexations of crimea, the territorial gains on boss, were allowed to go past what happened russia. russia came and had another guy. so i think from the ukranian point to be anything short of a complete russian withdrawal from ukrainian territory. we'll see then continue

fighting military analyst mike martin. thank you so much for your time. thank you. and let's look at some other headlines of the day. 3 men and spain have died in the last 24 hours from injury, sustained, taking part in bull running festivals. rights groups have long protested about the danger of the event for both animals and the public. around 20 people have been killed over the last 8 years. spain's prime minister pedro sanchez says more than 500 people have died as a result of the countries 10 day heat wave, which saw temperatures reach 45 degrees celsius. dozens of wild fires there have forced thousands of people to flee their homes. and officials and pakistan say at least 280 people have died in weeks of heavy rains and flooding. the national disaster management authority reported that almost 6000 homes have also been

destroyed with critical infrastructure such as roads and bridges severely damaged. better and politicians run away from the singer. it has been sworn in astro long as new president. he faces the challenge of leading the country out of its worst economic and political crisis since independence from britain. some protesters say the new leader is tainted by his association with the old regime. his immediate challenge is to convince sri lankan that he is fit for the job because i am a senior faces the task of leading the country out of its economic collapse and restoring order after months of mast protests. but many reluctance are skeptical. they see him as an ally of his predecessor, what the country need these up daughter does, is them take, but do what i mean,

we want to get rid of this that up, it, but editions. so that's what we up doing. so he'll hang up. i'm in a good me to not do well. you'll see. let's see what's gonna happen once a vibrant economy with a solid middle class tra lanka is now suffering lengthy power blackouts. people spend days in line to buy fuel. well, stores shelves have run low or food, an essential medicine. people are struggling. they're going to have food. they're going to have garrison. they don't, i guess. they don't have these. oh, they don't have but bro. public anger over the hardships boiled over when tens of thousands of protesters stormed the home of then president got to buy your royal poxel. forcing him to step down that cleared away for recommend cingus election. the 73 year old politician has failed in his previous to runs for the presidency. his assumption of power means he will serve out the rest of the

presidential term until november 2024 and some sports now at the world athletics championships in oregon, china, it's fung been has won a surprise gold and the disk as beating american olympic champion bell re alma in her own back yard. there was also success for a runner who this year switched her allegiance from kenya to casa shyness. feng bin was on the 17th at last. she is tokyo olympics. when the world championships, she did this, an opening throw of 69.12 meters was a personal best. even with the raucous support of an american home crowd, olympic champion, valerie almon, could not compete with thing. the chinese discus fro could barely believe it. she is already being fated back home. oh

a slow burner without some of the major athletics names of old. but now the sport has some new stars and a sad announcement. foreign german football fan of the legendary striker over zillah has died at the age of $85.00. he made his debut for hamburg as a teenager and 111 as like a title and one german cup over his 20 years at the club. he also represent and west germany at for world cups. ah, a selfie with the man the called once the hour hoover hamburg funds, affection for va sailor spanned generations, is kaneesha great. i know what to say. i'm just a regular guy, and i want to stay that way. on the murphy l. blind zeller made his 1st appearance for hamburg at 17, and played there almost 20 years. even a huge offer from into milan, wasn't enough to tempt him away. he went on to win

a ban, does league title and play it for world cups. but facts and figures are not what made zillow so popular. with the eva m a. he was a role model when everyone else was in the showers and he was there working on his technique, being at arouse gown of him, who opposed at the height of his career. he was a leading figure, a google, the likes of which hamburg have never seen a gown. neither garb even into his eighty's sailor could be found at every hamburg home game. and he would have been as disappointed as any one. but the clubs most recent failure to escape the german 2nd division. my guns lakeview, you can play badly, but you have to at least fight for 90 minutes. so she and you can demand that from professionals along with the club in the doldrums sailor's death is a timely reminder to the current squad of the heights hamburg funds expect their players to reach on and off the pitch

and before we go, here's a reminder of the top stories for falling for you, italy's president has to solve parliament paving the way for early elections as follows. the resignation of prime minister mario drago after the collapse of his national unity government. the president has asked mister drago to remain in post as caretaker later and the european central bank has raised its interest rate for the 1st time in 11 years as it seeks to control stubbornly high inflation in the euro's own, the bank is expected to raise rates again in september, as all for me, for now if i don't go away after a short break, i'll be back to take you through the day. hope to see it. ah,
