i mean, her with these into this week. ah ah, this is debbie news live from berlin, russian missile strike ukraine's port city of odessa. it comes less than a day after that. you countryside a deal to allow grain shipments. russia agreed not to attack port facilities training president vladimir lensky warned he didn't trust russia's promises. also

coming up u. s. court convict steve bannon of contempt of congress. donald trump's former aid refused to testify in front of lawmakers investigating last year's assault on the u . s. capital and pride is back in berlin. hundreds of thousands of people are expected as the german capital holds its annual christopher street day parade. for the 1st time, people come to the program, a newly un broker deal to restart grain exports out of ukraine, already faces trouble. just a day after russia and ukraine signed off on it. keeps official sate russian missiles struck the port of odessa a key root to get grain out to a hungry world, dependent on ukraine's crops. the deal carries the potential to alleviate a global food crisis. the reported attack gives credence to ukraine's warnings that russia won't keep its promises. stimulus corresponding connelly is in the ukrainian capital, keith, i asked him if there was any indication that the reported attack on odessa could

scuttle the deal. well, there was obviously a lot of skepticism here running into the signing of that deal in turkey yesterday . obviously, the government, keen to show willingness to engage if it were to work of c. this would have lots of advantages for ukraine, ukraine's farmers who've been sitting on 2 years worth of crops now unable to get any ready cash to pay for next year's crop to pay for seeds and fertilizers. but all these doubts about whether russia would take advantage of access to odessa being reopened minds being taken away. those rules still, there is definitely a lot of people here saying i told you so the russians are just not to be trust. i think the basic dilemma here is that this deal was trying to create peace on the sea or in the black sea at the time to same time as war on land was carrying on. and the south of ukraine is a region that is seen intensifying, fighting overseas. you've had so not far away from odessa. so somehow the idea that would be possible to kind of uncouple these 2 things and allow for basically trust

and some kind of working relations between russian ukrainian authorities on the see that was a, was a, it was gonna be a big ask and very difficult. and so it looks people hearing ukraine, who never really believed this deal would go anywhere in a hurry, help us understand this port in odessa just how important is it to getting grain in other ukrainian exports out to the world. i mean, odessa and the ports just near it. those are ukraine's basically gateway to the world. that is where not only food, but also ukraine's other exports have historically all gone out through the easiest, cheapest way to get big volumes of grain, most of which comes from the south and center of ukraine. close those ports to people in countries like turkey, egypt, north africa, some of those countries dependent for up to 3 quarters or more of their grain on ukraine. and all these alternatives that the ukraine now has been forced to look for and getting it out by road, by barge on the danube river. that's all a lot more complex. lot more expensive, and it just isn't really capable of replacing those ports. we're talking about

trucks with a capacity of tens of tons, rather than hundreds of thousands of tons at we're talking about farmers in ukraine getting a lot less money for their grain even if they are able sell it because the transport is just costing so much. so there was never really a sense that there was an alternative, reopening the ports, but given yet the bad blood between russia, ukraine, given russia's repeated attacks on civilians in cities, hundreds come through the front lines just it didn't ever really feel very convincing. here in care of that this kind of kind of workable stable deal would be reached. obviously, ukraine's politicians are very aware of the kind of optics of this, of that the outside world is waiting for this grain that lots people who may be, aren't that interested in this war and the ins and outs of territorial losses by ukraine. they certainly are feeling the pinch from rising food prices, so the, the boxes is very good them. but i think for the, for now is, is more about being at the table being shown, to be willing to talk and yoga actual realism of this, the actual kind of effects and the ability to get grain out and get started for

question nicolai there force and keep with the latest from that perspective, thanks very much. just a day before this most recent attack, the united nations secretary general called the deal. a quote beacon of hope came after months of a russian blockade of ukraine's ports. a landmark deal 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 deal offered a beacon of hope. this is an agreement for the wills. 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 regina di bardon. i know we're going to sit in the hotel because with the text agreed on of the cut, we will work together to prevent the danger of hunger, but to waste billions of people her just all over the walls. and i shifted 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. turkish 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. as look now,

it does indeed 1st, because brandon is a very international place today i could talk to people from all around the world. why he either living in berlin because if you stay for all he on hot days because they wanted to enjoy this particular piece of the day, you in barely because of the time to run, you know, to wait until it runs across the city. but there's also a message that he's also in the manifesto, where organizes obviously is the human belly one. for example, the mayor of valentines is that the by to reach out to mayor is in places where human wide nbc community are not being respect is who they want that may your to reach out and try to expand those human rights to people in other places so the message very much rather nice internationally i do have your corresponding, i know shows there in the center of it all. the christopher street, a parade in berlin. thanks very much. and moving over to sports at the world athletics championships in the u. s. state of oregon,
