3:00 pm
[000:00:00;00] ah ah, this is dw, live from berlin, pope's grow that the international food crisis can be of the month of talks, moscow and keith appear ready to sign a deal to resume grand shipments from black c ports. currently blockaded by russian . also coming on a steering indictment of donald trump, us lawmakers say he chose not to act as a mob of his supporters,
3:01 pm
storm the capital for 187 minutes on january 6th. this man of unbridled destructive energy could not be moved. us congressional panel, the former president, failed call off capital run. my only goal was to ensure the integrity of the blow does not represent the outtakes from a trump speech that have never been seen before. showing an angry president unwilling to admit defeat and more unrest in sri lanka, dozens are injured as security forces, clear the main anti government protest in the capital, columbia. ah, i'm gabelle, as welcome to the program. it is a stand off that has been threatening the food security of millions of people
3:02 pm
across the world. but now it's russia and ukraine may be about to sign a deal to allow grange shipments to resume from black seaports. more than 20000000 tons of grain are stuck in silos. their representatives from both ukraine and russia are set to inc, the deal which was broken by turkey and the united nations, but they will sign separate agreements. earlier i spoke to d. w. a correspondent julia han in istanbul, and she told me what's expected this afternoon while if not derailed at the last minute. the deals will be signed here at the dorm, a batch of palace in east and build the building there right behind me. this off to noon, and this will be a deal finally allowing ukraine to reopen. it's ports in the black sea and resume grain. exports, grain exports that we know off urgently needed because the world faces shortages
3:03 pm
and rising food prices. now the signing ceremony will be attended by turkish president edwin and un secretary general quoterush bozeman have played a key role negotiating this compromise. they have been trying for weeks now to broker a compromise between moscow and keith. and as we know, the turkish government has good relations with both ukraine and russia, and they've tried to cast themselves as the most engaged mediator in this war. and now they have managed again to bring delegations here to turkey. the russian defense minister is here in istanbul to day ukraine's infrastructure minister as well. so it really seems like there has been a breakthrough idea. what else do we know about the deal about the details of the deal? well, the full details of these agreement have not been made public yet, but from what we know, the deal provides for
3:04 pm
a un run control center to be created here in istanbul at this very strategic black sea location, staffed by representatives from russia, ukraine, and turkey. to over see these at rain exports. the 2 sides have reportedly also agreed that ships traveling to and from ukraine would be inspected to make sure there are no weapons or other military equipment on board. that's been a key. russian demand these inspections, the ukrainians say, will take place in turkish waters. so what we're going to see in the end, i think, is ukranian vessels escorting cargo ships through so called safe corey doors. in the black sea, both sides have made promises that they would not attack these ships in and out of it on an, on their way in and out of ukrainian territorial waters. but ukraine has already warned that it has a problems trusting russian of promises. so security,
3:05 pm
at least for the ukrainians remains the most contentious issue here. ok, responded to the honda reporting from his stumble. thank you. well, deal or not in ukraine? russia has launched attacks on several cities in the east and the south. 3 people were killed in more than 20 inches in renewed shelling in the 2nd largest city hockey if just an ordinary market on any other day. but this day, a sight of devastation. 2 russian strikes at this, texting market in harkey. you've killed her husband. the shells struck a mask. a jim, a bus stop taking civilian lives. ukrainian officials say russia is out for blood. even using weapons that are widely band. laura, this place was hit by rockets with cluster bombs to maximize the damage to people will be doped,
3:06 pm
go run those who pushed the button on the rocket launcher. wanted to maximize damage to the civilian population with all a silly elsewhere in harkey. ukrainian soldiers are learning how to use newly arrived. weapons. western countries are sending more long range weapons to the war torn country, including high marks, highly accurate mobile missile launchers allowing longer range attacks on the foreign weapons were shipped with anti tank weapons and mortars. now or you're teaching a boy so the can confidently work on the front line. what does it linoleum? but to russia, all incoming health is a threat. and it's responding with more attacks in clamor tours separate sia, severe genetic expanding the scope of war. earlier i spoke to the w, corresponded nicoli and keith, and i asked him whether
3:07 pm
a lack of trust might still undermine this deal. well, that's exactly the point at the same time where russia and ukraine meant be learning trust each other on the see. not far away on land in southern ukraine, in the had song region. lot of fighting going on ukraine trying to push russian troops back for intense fighting. that part of the country, but not only there in the east, in at done yet screeching near the city of buck more g. russia trying to push home its advantage there. and bessie pushed the ukrainian lines back. a busy keep a move on from there, or that kind of role of success. they had a couple of weeks back to no senseless, any lessening of tension, lessening of fighting. quite the opposite of the russia take, took a kind of break of a couple of weeks to regroup its forces that part of the world things halting up again. so it's pretty difficult to see a situation where trust is going to be built between russia and ukraine, where there's going to be a willingness to stick to commitments made and a low question marks of the steel. now let's come back to this deal. how's it going
3:08 pm
down in, in ukraine? do people trust this agreement? so, 1st things 1st, this, if it were to come to fruition, if it were to work out, this would be a massive boost ukraine's economy. obviously, most of ukraine's exports not only foodstuffs, but also metal products. other things are all stuck because the land roots just simply don't have the capacity to compensate for ports, like a desa mc alive, which allowed ukraine to send its goods direct to the world's markets. we will talk to farmers of the last few days. we're getting paid by a 3rd of what they would have got a just a year ago for their grain. even though world prices are sky high. because no one can get this grain out to trickle that is leaving the country isn't enough to make a difference. they've still got lots of loss is harvest in their bonds and now they're harvesting the new harvest. so just too much gray and know where to put it . and as for this deal, well, you know, there is a lot of skepticism here that russia will not take advantage of this to attacks. it is like a desa. we heard from sega level versus farmers recent days that russia is not going to stop, not gonna leave at the dawn bath,
3:09 pm
that basically all of ukraine is fair game to russian forces. so the idea that somehow russia would now allow ukraine to do something that would civically strengthen its economy and make things easier for ordinary ukrainians at the price of leaving a desa untouched. that is something that no one here really is in a hurry to believe. so i think people will believe this year when they see it working and for now a still deeply skeptical valley where we are talking about more than 20000000 tons of brandon are currently stuck in black. see ports in your grant if that amount is being shipped, kind of make a difference for the ukrainian economy. what stephanie crucial to ukraine. farmers who are basically facing a cash flow crisis. and basically an unclear where they can get the money to pay wages to pay taxes to buy next year seeds and fertilizers. so that obviously is crucial for them. there is some government support, but it's definitely not enough. we've heard lots stories are smaller. farmers busy having to rent out their land to the big agro industrial busy concerns who have the
3:10 pm
ready cash to somehow deal with this crisis. but it is something that is really hitting the farming sector, which is one of ukraine strongest and fastest growing economical directions. ukraine was really on its way to becoming a kind of food superpower to port your number here that ukraine feeds about half a 1000000000 people around the world. and countries like lebanon, or a text on ukraine's grain makes up for, you know, if not half, then of, in some cases, more than 2 thirds of total grain consumption in vegetable oil, sunflower seeds, about half the world's crop comes from this country. so this is a country that is crucial to keeping prices manageable for lots people in low income countries who it can be facing a very difficult time without this ukrainian food who w 1st, when an economy and key of their thank you very much, nick as time to look at some of the other stories making headlines, intense clashes have erupted between rival security forces in libya's capital, tripoli, emergency services say at least one civilian was killed. libya has been split for
3:11 pm
years between rival administrations in the east and the west. each supported by various malicious and by foreign governments. brazilian politician lula da silva has been chosen as the candidate to take on j. r, bolts and arrow in the presidential election. this year. he's been president twice before going to prison for corruption charges that were later overturned. he is currently the favorite to win the vote in october. in spain, 3 men have died in the last 24 hours from injury sustained while taking part in bull running festivals. rights groups have long protested about the dangers of the event for both animals and the public. around 20 people have been killed over the last 8 years. a panel of u. s. lawmakers says donald trump ignored pleased to call off a mob to his supporters storming storming the capital and refusing to say the
3:12 pm
election was over a day after the attack. the allegations have come out of a series of hearings by the committee investigating the january 6. right. the hearings have included a mix of life testimony, pre recorded depositions, and never before seen footage, including these outtakes. that's whatever it is. of donald trump or hurting his video address to the nation a day after the attack on the capital. but this election is now congress has certified the results. i don't want to say the elections over. i just wanna say his daughter, yvonne can trump can be heard off camera coaching her father now . yeah, congress the committee documented how the former president was not only aware of the attack on the capital. he watched the violence unfold on television in a small dining room off the oval office, rebuffing please, by aids, politicians,
3:13 pm
and members of his own family to tell them up to stand down. for 3 hours, he refused to call off the attack, and donald trump refused to take the urgent advice he received that there not from his political opponents from the liberal media, but from his own family. his own friends, his own staff, and his own advisors. in the midst of an attack, when there was no time for politics, the people closest the trunk, told him, the truth. it was his supporters attack in the capital and he alone could get through to them. kins inger, one of only 2 republicans on the committee, says instead, trump chose not to act violating his oath of office and placing lives in danger. 5 people died as a result of the attack. some 140 police officers were injured and to date more than
3:14 pm
850 people have been arrested in connection with the riot. it came on the heels of his speech by trump, to supporters in which he falsely claimed the election had been stolen and that vice president mike pence could overturn the results. during the hearings, one white house security official described how secret service agents protecting pens that day called loved ones to say good bye. as the mob broken side with a large we on the sy, several members of the capitol police force have been in the audience during the hearings, which will resume in september and at the white house on the morning. earliest that lauren's tribe, professor of constitutional law at harvard university, bought and illegal consequences that trump could face following the hearings very seriously, your consequences. he is perfectly entitled to believe whatever he wants, but the election was certainly over. it was over when the electoral college voters
3:15 pm
overwhelmingly before his opponent for joe biden, on december 14th. he incited an insurrection. he was guilty, it appears from all of the evidence of conspiring to overturn the election. he was defrauding the american people of a fair election. and he was clearly obstructing congress. those are very grave crimes. some of them are punishable by 20 years in federal prison. and one of them is citing an insurrection and giving aid to an insurrection, results in permanent disqualification from ever holding public office in the united states. so those are the consequences that this tyrannical man faces. now let's come back to the, the panel that which is of course be bipartisan,
3:16 pm
but do the hearings effect the republican party internally right now? well, there are certainly a growing number of republicans who are beginning to say privately what they said publicly in the wake of the violence that the president fermented, namely, that he is unqualified ever to hold office and that they are done with him. but the moment the cameras are turned on, they are afraid of what he will do to them. no, are afraid. both of the physical threats that some of them are receiving, which is really terrifying, but also of the political threats. so it's too early to say whether the republican party will end up with a different candidate next time around. perhaps governor de santis of florida. people who are less obviously clownish, but every bit as dangerous, perhaps even more so because they are smarter and more disciplined. now presidential elections aside,
3:17 pm
will these hearings do you think have any impact on the midterm elections? are that's even harder to predict the midterm elections, of course, don't have donald trump on the ballot, but a great many people are hope i'm among them. hearing that the threat to democracy of this group of republicans ever again holding power will encourage people to go to the polls and in the midterms vote for people who are going to protect democracy in various ways. that means basically voting for democrats because the people who are elected in the mid terms, both to state legislatures and to the congress of the united states are people who are going to be riding the laws that affect what happens in november of 2024. so there is likely to be some impact, but it's impossible to measure talking about impact does the american public care much about these hearing? well,
3:18 pm
if we're to judge by the number of people who are increasingly watching than they do care. even though inflation is a number one priority, the cost of gas at the pump is bothering people. but there were over 20000000 people who watch the testimony of cassidy hutchinson the other day on. and we don't yet know the precise number we watched last night. but there is a growing sense on the part of the american people that this really did come close to a push to a qu, that over through the american government. and although that's a little abstract compared to concrete, things like gasoline prices, the evidence is that more and more americans realize that if democracy is lost here, then all is lost. lawrence, dr. professor of constitutional law at harvard, thank you very much. thank you. you're you're watching t

3:22 pm
a b reaction to the decision to clear the protest. her obviously this great anger and rage again, hard when i'm standing is next to the presidential secretariat, which was taken over by the police and the army in a dramatic midnight operation. and right here in front of these barricades, you can see there is a protest going on. it is a small protest, but the people here are extremely angry. you have men, you have women. but you also have some nuns sitting at the back. at one point they saw them be at the police filming them, and there was a big anger because it's meant to be a silent protest. but 23 men stood up and said, take my picture, i'm the person who's prepared to die for the country, not just for my family, but for your family as well. so you can see tempers are running very high. now right across here is the remnants of the major protest scam. the go gotta a camp here which is called a google tag on that camp. and we met

a few protest as there and they were here last night and they said the police came in. they closed all the exits and they were beaten up and i saw protested, who showed me marks that they had on their bodies where they were beaten up. now they're not sure how long they can stay here. but as you can see, the security presence is very high. the 1st line of defense of police officers and behind them are military soldiers to the situation is tense. but at the moment the protests are completely peaceful. and what they say, this is a silent protest. okay, but the camp is now broken up. does that mean and with all the police that we see in the background there? does it mean that the government is back in full control? will the government would like to think it's in full control and it is in terms of the forces which are out here. but he also asked me about the reactions at one by what has been the reaction. there's been a huge amount of reaction to this midnight crack down on this protest scam. you have the lead of the oppositions describing it as a, as a blue,
3:24 pm
a useless show of brute force. you will have the lawyers association saying this track down on peace were protest is, was despicable. you have various ambassadors who have treated their reaction, expressing concerns including the you know, the government has taken control of the last bastion, which the protest i protested, had occupied the entrance of the presidential secretariat. so in that sense they have complete control and we were driving around earlier and they have the heavy police presence in all sensitive sites like entrances to the presidential palace close to the prime minister's office. so i ping in terms of law and order the country, the new president has definitely got things under control of south asia correspondent, i'm outta chima. they're reporting from colombo and sri lanka. thank you. i'm rita . i'll sidney's opera house is australia's most famous landmark unesco world. heritage site and one of the world's most iconic buildings, but looks on everything for decades,
