frost rushes promises. also coming up on the shout, a us court convict steve bannon of contempt of congress. donald trump's, former a. hello, i'm clear, richardson, thanks so much for joining us. ukraine and russia have signed a un broker deal to restart grain exports out of ukraine for months. russia has blockaded ports on the black sea, vital for shipping, ukrainian grain to the rest of the world. the agreement will help alleviate a global food crisis triggered by russia as invasion. ukraine says it doesn't believe russia will keep its promises. a landmark built against the backdrop of mutual mistrust. representatives from russia and ukraine, signed an agreement in the stumble, refusing to sit down together at the same table, and carefully avoiding shaking hands. the un secretary general said the d offered a beacon of hope. this is an agreement for the wolves. it will bring

relief for developing countries on the edge of bankruptcy. and the most abominable people on the edge of famine and to love stabilize global food prices, which would already at record levels even before the war. a total nightmare for developing countries. green and russia are 2 of the woods biggest green producers. the deal will release more than 20000000 tons of wheat and other green that remain trapped in located ukrainian ports due to the war. it was broken by the un and dokie, a diplomatic crime for president, reggie di bardon. i know we're going to sit in the hotel because we leave text agreed on of because we will work together to prevent the danger of hunger, but to wake up billions of people had just all over the walls. and as the kid from africa to the middle east listener, i'm from america, asia focus, all the just the needle member controls the streets leading to the black sea.

darkish and un officials will police the shipments that much of the world is desperately waiting for but trust is a key factor underlying the deal. and that is a high level of skepticism on all sides. and let's get the latest from daily of corresponding dorian jones and asked on ball dorian not skepticism per says, because of russia has been accused of using grain exports as a bargaining chip. does miss dale change that well, you're right. i mean, there is a great deal of distrust towards moscow given the seems to start this ukranian complex. it has been seen as lying and receiving. so now this, the latest field will be a great deal of scrutiny all moscow, whether it will fulfill its parts of the bargain. the key part will be that this commitment not to call k, to carry out hostilities around the 3 ukrainian black sea port and also the port

facilities where the grain is actually be going to be exported from. but having said that, russia to benefit from this process, there's been a clarification of international sanctions, which will mean the russian fertilizer and some food stops will be allowed to be export. and now that's very important for russia and its businesses. on top of that, russia also will be aware that these looming global time in that is threatening the wealth with the us, holding over a 100000000 people already being plunged into the acute of the because of the soaring prices of the green, complex impacting countries which are close allies of russia particular in africa. so moscow will be key not to be seen to be held responsible for the soaring, probably because when having said that, there will be a great deal of scrutiny going forward. and the awareness of moscow could easily slow down the process or even bring it to an end. so they will be a great deal of concern in the coming weeks ahead with a scale of faster crisis in mind if they're still home. how soon can we expect green shipments to be restored?

will take us president jeff taper one at the signing ceremony said that it could be you in a matter of days and all that has been posted by you and officially part of the we've been involved in this the pro program progress. and he said that the essay is possible that we could see a few ship saw think in possibly by next week on top of that. so i think they expect expectation, but they still will be at full swing exporting in the region of $5000000.00. come a month that will not be happening until at least another few weeks because this is a very complex process. you have to have ukranian. pilots will have to crate the safe channels through these heavily mine balls to set up protected ukrainian ports . then they will be so called safe car, those across the black sea that will be established and this will all take time. but as we speak, there is a joint coordination sensor that's the set up as part of this treat the example. everyone has a whether disease or race again time. because at the moment ukrainian,

the silos are filled to overflowing with grain from the previous last year's harvest. and the awareness is that there was a new hop is coming in the matter a week, and the side has to be clear to them to be safely so that it is a race of things time as well as to start to reduce hopefully global food turkey is clearly played a major role as a mediator in striking this deal. what isn't it for them? while turkey bent has played an over the pivotal role in the un secretary general, antonio terrace was praising president juan and toby's role and athena unit. un officials have echoed this saying that this deal was not possible without 30 key people to roll. now, many ways turkey has been very keen and particular president one, but it plays a central role in any efforts to and this complet mediation efforts. it doesn't, one of a major power entry into an air will consider this. and on top of this,

this will be seen as of indication of a policy of a balanced approach. on the one hand, supposed to ukraine, providing alms, particularly very effective drones against russia invasion, but also a hosing introduction to any sanctions against russia. that's cause a lot of prism criticism from turkeys western allies, but turkey's insisted it nice hate this balanced approach. so allow it to have this possibility of mediating, or at least facilitating some kind of field between russia and ukraine with the possible in the future of ending the conflict. now, this greenfield is seen as a strong support for load one stocks. but the key fact, pickering, for the will, the field work and turkey will be working very hard to make sure this process works continue. it's supposed to be done in dealing with ukraine in russia to tell the correspondent dorian jones for us, and it's tumble. thank you. so much for that update, and we have nick connelly in the ukrainian capital cave. earlier i asked him what

people there think of best grain agreements. ok, there's a lot of skepticism henkie of about the mechanics. how this is going to work in practice or to the time where we've seen fighting actually increased between russian ukrainian for so land. the idea that suddenly piece essentially on the water on the black season to be possible. that is something that not many people can imagine for now how it's going to work. this will seal to fear that if the access to ports like a desa is opened, if those c mines removed, that russia might take advantage of that and try and attack those cities. we've heard from russian from mr. leverett, in recent days, that russia's war aims and not going to be limited to don bass, that essentially all of ukraine still as moscow sees it, a target. but obviously there's a lot of consciousness of the sequence for the wider world vist that this is about hunger in lots of countries who are very dependent on that ukrainian grain. and so there's a different sense that ukraine needs to make it clear that they're open to dialogue and open to try and resolve this problem. let's have a listen to what present landscape say that actually your son visit the finally,

there is a chance to reduce the severity of the food crisis that russia has provoked will buy. there is a chance to prevent a global catastrophe. hunger that could lead to political chaos in many countries of the world, almost as particularly in the countries that help us out. and when this particular war time stand off, appearing to come to an end, do you think that this agreement could paved the way for a new series of peace talks between russia and ukraine? i think unfortunately, it's unlikely we saw in turkey the optics there. everything. basically done to keep them apart to avoid ukraine rush, having to talk to each other directly. everything happening kind of bilaterally with the turkish side there. and indeed, there is since hearing ukraine, that western weapons are making a difference, are enabling ukraine to make russia's life a whole lot harder to basically take away russia's advantage in terms of artillery, if basically power on the ground, assuming that the russians to have at least al, convinced that they have got used to the sanctions regime that they can hold out

and carry on fighting. so no sense of a kind of desire to come back to the table and really change things there. but definitely you know, both sides. that awareness of the optics and the impact on the wider world and russia also very keen to show its its partners in african asia that it is open to resolving this. because this is of see a problem that is crucial, that is really being felt by people who maybe don't have so much interest or kind of close and kind of following in this war that is there seen for many as a european war. but this one is of the impact people's pockets around the world. this is all of course, coming in nearly 5 months in to ukrainians, defending against a powerful invading force. and are they staying defiant at this point? or are you seeing signs of growing war fatigue? i think the fear of fatigue is something that ukrainians are worried about. europeans and people in north america, the countries that have been supporting ukraine through this war, they're worried that as inflation creeps up as that energy crisis hits europe in

the autumn of winter, that there's going to be pressure on ukraine's leaders to come to some kind of deal on rushes terms to visit the end, this conflict, but i don't see any real willingness here in ukrainian society to make compromises right now. russia's occupying 20 percent of ukraine's territory. no one is talking about, you know, legitimizing that legalizing allowing russia to incorporate those territories. but there is of see the question of economics. can ukraine hold out people savings now in many cases are running out of to 5 multiple people struggling to find new jobs. people who have left the country unable to come back with their jobs, disappeared. so i think that economic front and ukraine's ability to keep on going is actually in the coming months, can be more of an issue than the military side. because they're found out there is no lack of ukraine's willing to sign up, willing to fight, but will they have the weapons? will they have the the finance to keep on? that's, that's going to be the central question of correspondence. nick connelly and key. thank you. as always for reporting of attentions with russia have caused gas prices across europe to spiral. now german chancellor,

all off shorts has agreed to bail out the country's biggest gas importer. that is a delicate balancing act for his government. trying to shield consumers from rising gas prices. on protecting gas companies from going bankrupt gas prices are already at record highs in germany, whether from autumn, gas suppliers will be allowed to raise prices. yet again, chancellor shawls city increase would be around $0.02 per kilowatt hour, which would mean an extra $2.00 to $300.00 euro's a year for an average family. but shoulds promise support, you will never walk along. the 2nd minds um do we will get through these tough times together. thus is the most important thing that much. nobody will be left alone with their challenges and problem lesson to protect consumers from soaring energy prices. shouts, announce heating subsidies for people on low incomes. a reform of the social welfare system and legal protections for people who can't pay rent, lek, tricity,

or heating bills. they're started, i need and last indeed mistake will come to the aid of those hit hardest. but we will all have to live with higher cost lesson i instead, the simple fact it is that we are all poorer because of the higher prices. unless the german government's bail out of uniform. the country's biggest gas importer also helps consumers. germany is taking a 30 percent stake in the company. rejection of more than 7000000000 euros. but is it enough since your feeder own because there are a lot of unknowns on so if we don't know how deliveries from gas problem will develop on gas palm do that sort of common, there are too many factors for me to be able to say how long it will last on, the line was high, some good. the government says it is determined to maintain stability in the energy sector. let's go to the us now where steve been at the long time, ally and aid of former president donald trump has been convicted of contempt of congress. he could face up to 2 years in prison, but has vowed to appeal the verdict been and was charged for refusing to testify

before lawmakers investigating last year's insurrection at the west capital. i fed with indeed of the as we had a corner has more on steve than ins, convection for us from washington dc. that's not a huge surprise. and clearly he refused to even honda of any documents, but you can't seem to get away with not cooperating in the face of a house committee, but his lawyer is already said that they will appeal. he says he has a bullet proof information that will prevent steve bowden from going to prison at could be up to 2 years. so this is still an open once again, but a very clear indicated that he cant cindy wiggle out of this. and before we go, let's get a reminder of the top story we're following for you. let's go and keep have signed a deal to resume brain shipments out of ukraine, ending a russian blockade of black sieve ports. un secretary general antonio who attached

hailed it as a beacon of hope for the world that will ease an international food crisis. update at the satellite doc fil is coming up next. and of course, there's always more on our website to be found at d. w dot com. i'm clear, richardson, thank you so much for joining us. oh, school is establishing in she junior, president of the covey power chewing on any criticism of his regime isn't it's in the bud.
