ah ah ah this is the w news live from berlin. ukraine resumes grain shipments to the world. cargo vessel set off across the black sea after turkey declares it's safe to say that the 1st to transport, ukrainian grain by sea since the start of russia's war. also on the program. i want to use media report that you as how speak and nancy pelosi will visit the country during her current trip to asia. despite and rewarding from china. germany foreign

minister defense, a landmark nonproliferation treaty, or the un after the secretary general forms that humanities just one missed understanding away from nuclear annihilation. ah, i'm still getting a welcome to the program. the 1st grain treatment to sail from ukraine since the start of russia's invasion has now left turkey, which is overseeing the implementation of the deal between the 2 countries and the un said it was safe to resume exports. the shipment is due to arrive in istanbul on tuesday, where it will be inspected before heading on to lebanon, just one of many countries desperately in need of grain. ukraine hopes that today's departure will be the 1st of many the congo ship rezone is carrying more than just

grain. it's carrying the hopes of ukrainians and people around the world. it's the 1st ship loaded with grain to leave odessa. since russia invaded ukraine, some residents of the port city see it as a sign not only of hope, but of progress for you. on monday, i heard the ship's whistle for the 1st time. i was delighted. look, and you finally, life is beginning to move forward and there are some changes in a positive direction. this makes me very happy that that would, you know, in general, the port should live its own life. because odessa is a port city we live here. we want everything to work for us for everything to bustle. the list. since the start of the war, ukrainian farmers have been hard pressed to get grain out of the country. ukrainian trains can't move on most e, rails, and trucks take days to get across the border. as harvest season approaches,

many silos are already full and grains stored for long periods of time is at high risk of mold throttle. so so, so, so in the good we still have 6000 tons of grain stored here. this is where we supposed to put the wheat when the next harvest starts. rogers love the, there's no author, it's gary. any amount of grain could be left on the fields. malicious electric as a local, but solving the troubles with transport isn't an instant solution for high food prices. economists say the prices of commodities like wheat, rice, and corn, and not only dependent on the war, but also weather conditions and the success of the harvest. effect that agreement also russian commodities are now more easily going on to the old mark is is good, but all acidity will remain high and the shortages are on your are not only caused

by weather war, but also by clemente conditions cautious optimism is ripe among many farmers hoping to sell as much of their grain as possible. while the negotiated corridor remains open. we get more from dw corresponded, beget ashika aim cave. welcome, forget her. how are you crying in authorities assuring the safety of a ship that left odessa today. the main issue with safety was obviously that most of the ports along the black sea, our mind, especially the odessa port in order to prevent them from possible a russian advancement to, according to the dia, ukraine, over the last days, hasty mind a small portion of the port and pilot bows have guided the ships through a sort of safe pass passage through or through the port. everything went well and for the 1st ship, and it is expected to arrive in istanbul, air tomorrow,

and will then be inspected by a joint group of russians. to kish and un inspectors in order to make sure that it's only grain on the ship. and then the vessel can continue its air, its journey to lebanon. and this, we still hold for a 120 days. i think how optimistic are authorities in ukraine, but it will hold and that shipments will continue. so today they praised the 1st ship, leaving the odessa port as a great breakthrough. but because it's, it's obviously very important for the ukrainian economy. but if you're talking with the people on the street, they are not overly enthusiastic. because one reason might be that it might take some times when i said it might be even take weeks until the full capacity of the

operations will, will reach the plant $5000000.00 ton of exported grain every month. the 2nd reason is, is really that many people here think this a corridor might be over soon, because there might be another attack. they don't trust the russian claims, not to attack those ports, especially after only hours after the grain you was side, russia had attacked the ports. and in addition to that, the heavy attacks on the portal town of nikolai, which is not far from odessa, are continuing as well. so there's not 2 men and 2 men much trust here in this agreement and that it will last long. okay, thank you. i tell us more about the bose attacks on bigelow mc alive has a scene and

a huge shelling over the over the past days. but it what is also very important development in the south that ukraine itself is stepping up. it's an attempt to reclaim territory, especially in the house on region. we have been seeing attacks on critical russian infrastructure and where warehouses, ammunition depots are in an attempt to cut the russians from the supply lines. and today we got a message from her, from a local governor, claiming that a ukraine was able to retake 46 settlements in the southern class on region. we haven't any confirmation on that, but it seems as if the counter offensive president. so lensky has been talking so long about is gaining momentum. but at the same time, russia is deploying troops from the eastern back to the south,

to in the reinforce their positions and to defend the territory they had. and that had taken some months ago. so i think we will be seeing more intense fighting in the house or region on the south front in the next weeks. thank you for that. we get her sugar and keith. a crossover has postponed, the introduction of tougher border controls with serbia after the plug triggered, riots and police were shot out. authorities of my removed road blocks put there by ethnic serbs. the right started after the course of a government announced a decision about false people in majority or ethnic sir barris, to swap their license plates for cost of issued. once sirens rang through the night. as police shut the baron jak and yet in your border crossings in northern kosovo. this came after serbian demonstrators shot at

authorities and blocked roads close to the border crossings. they were angry about a new ruling from the cost of government that ethnic serbs can no longer use. serbian id cards in kosovo and car owners with registration plates issued by serbia. we'd have to change them for constable. license plates within 2 months. the stand off left, many people stuck at border control, unable to get back home. and i cannot, we arrived here last night and the police asked us where we were going. we told them we were going home and i got to police stopped us here because we cannot pass the owner. i knew this, serbian president said, his government would preserve peace at any cost. but on those, melissa, if they dared to persecute serbs mistreat serbs, kill serbs,

serbia will win. that's all i have to say. the cause of in government released a statement, maintaining that multiple aggressive acts were perpetrated this afternoon and evening. instigated and planned by bel great authorities. tensions between the 2 countries are neither worse. they've been in years cost over declared independence from serbia in 2008, serbia has refused to recognize causal statehood, even though it has no formal control. their causal, as fragile peace is maintained by a natal mission, which has $3770.00 troops on the ground nato. as k for said that they are prepared to intervene. if stability is jeopardized. they released a statement saying that our nato led k for mission is fully focused on the daily implementation of it's you and mandate to ensure a safe and secure environment and freedom of movement for all the people of kosovo . the cost of an government has agreed to postpone the new rulings until september,

fast as the ethnic serbs have removed the barricades. soldiers from both sides continue to patrol the border following the unrest of several media outlets in the taiwan are reporting that you as how speaker nancy pelosi will visit the island. despite threats from china was policies currently in singapore. at the start of a high profile trip to asia, beijing has repeated its warnings regarding what it would consider a provocation rule. hello, he don't know if the speaker of the house of representatives pelosi visits taiwan, the chinese side will definitely take resolute and strong countermeasures in the culture in response into wonder and defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity through user terms. water as to what measures are without going to is she

dares to go there, let us wait and see over white house national security spokesman, or john kirby said, nancy pelosi has every right to visit taiwan. and that there's no reason for beijing to turn this visit into a crisis. beijing's actions could have unintended consequences that only serve to increase tensions. we expect to see beijing continued to use inflammatory rhetoric and dis information in the coming days. let's take a closer look at this with that robert daily, he's director of the wilson census kissinger institute on china and the united states. welcome to the w, and what would nancy pelosi hope to achieve by visiting taiwan and annoying the chinese in this way? when you started with the right question, no, very clear rationale has been given other than generally sewing support for the people of taiwan and their democracy. and the united states has shown support and effect as increases demonstrations of support. over the past several years with leaders visits with more arm sales for example. so what new or additional value the

speaker of the house is trip to taiwan would provide is not clear. and there's been no real claim made for that that i've heard. right. so as well as angry rhetoric within all this angry rhetoric, which we've heard often from the chinese, they've also said today not to expect it's military to stand idly by. if this trip happens, what other options, realistically, the chinese site has now committed to making some response with the people's liberation army that they haven't made previously. that does not mean it probably won't mean pulling a trigger. it will mean at doing something like flying over the midline between in the taiwan straits between taiwan and mainland china and action. that will mean nothing to most americans, certainly. and most people in the world it could mean going into taiwan aerospace, which it hasn't done previously. it could mean escorting or shadowing. the speaker

of the house is plain for part of its trip. it can also mean biting its time and waiting until after the trip and taking some action at a time of its own deciding. so we don't know, it will probably not be kinetic or lead to a direct conflict, but it will establish new precedent and a new baseline for relations between china, taiwan, and the united states, which is likely to bring us a little bit closer to conflict. so as nancy pelosi does visit taiwan, president biden can still reasonably claim that u. s. policy towards the island hasn't changed. but as john becomes increasingly assertive, is the us going to have to pick aside and drop this so called strategic ambiguity? i don't think it's time to drop strategic ambiguity quite yet. at the united states clearly has changed its attitude toward the one china policy and this began under the trump administration. but the biden administration has picked up on this idea

that since 1979 united states has been too sensitive to china's hypersensitivity. and really, what remains of the one china policy is an american commitment not to support taiwanese independence. and to recognize only b ging as the government of the people's republic of china. but outside of that, we are now sending more leaders to taiwan at we are breaking more sales to taiwan and we're welcoming taiwanese officials into official american government buildings . so the one china policy, the core of it, is still there, but the style and meaning of it, the seriousness with which it's taken, that clearly has changed. could talk until that very clear. thanks for joining us. that robert davy from the wilson census kissing to institute on china and the united states. thank you. take a look at some more of the stores making headlines around the world now that the head of men mows ruling military giantess announced the 6th month extension of the

state of emergency. the army seized power from the elected, the government of ang, song, sushi, last year. that now pledge to hold new elections in august of next year. but observe is regard that as unlikely had of iran's nuclear organisation says to run has the technical capability to produce atomic bomb, but has no intention of doing so. mohamad islam is comments came as the use external representative, joseph burrell, 6 to salvage a 2015 in nuclear deal with the army said he hope for a swift conclusion to negotiations. a german foreign minister annalynne burbock is in new york for a high level meeting to review. the landmark and non proliferation treaty aimed at preventing the spread of nuclear weapons. she highlighted the threats of a nuclear confrontation with russia as a consequence of the war in ukraine. and she spoke about the challenges posed by other countries, like iran and nuclear arms. north korea long delayed conference was, had been scheduled to take place in 2020,

but had to be postponed several times because of the code pandemic is some of the german foreign minister said. we are here to defend the rules based international order. the entity is not just the piece of paper, it embodies some of the most fundamental commitments of human kind. to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons, to ensure nuclear weapons, i never used again. and to work to word our common goal of the word free of nuclear weapons. they don't really correspond to become a cooper. hey sir, i was following the german foreign minister in new york. welcome mikaela. what are what stood out to you from underline burbock speech that was interesting that she raised herself, that she got the question,

why does she try and pursue this right now? as a europe is facing a real time bull? that, that doesn't seem to be that terribly much point making progress on such a huge issue. and despite those lofty words, they're all concrete steps as that's the countries, the willing countries are demanding, particularly of russia, china, also iran, which is more transparency. and she called on iran, particularly to now take on that package, the iran nuclear deal, the j. c. p, o, a as it is known and, and to commit to not develop a nuclear weapon despite those voices we had out of iran to us that at that they would now be capable of doing so. so she's not willing to drop the bowl, but instead of back door diplomacy, she is choosing public, the, reminding those nuclear countries of their commitments, right? unless talks about what's actually going on that of the, the meat of his trip. but what is you and hope will come out of his review of

a certain nonproliferation treaty. well, no fast movement is expected that much is to show this conference goes on for an entire month. so that is a lot of talking done behind closed doors. i've just come out of actually one of the meetings where the japanese prime minister was a japan of course, at which has seen that destruction of a nuclear bomb being at the full front of really calling international leaders to account to not allow something like that to happen again while at the same time of course, and also having a lot of civilian use if get their energy. and so the expectations i have to say a pretty no. but the hope is that by keeping it on the agenda, and there will be at least a degree of a public seeming or reason into creeping into the discussion. also, when it comes to north korea, for instance, which is seen as an immediate threat,

as was pointed out by the united states day, who expect yet another at nuclear test. i thank you for mckayla. we had a coupon in new york but to south africa and 4 years ago, cape town was facing the threat of day 0. the day when it's bought was expected to run out. didn't happen in the end because people say water on the reins came now another town has the same problem. i can becca, formerly port elizabeth and east and k pros experience 7 years of dropped. a correspondent adrim creech sent us this report. not a drop in the tip in simple kazi tim bonnie's house for 7 months now, the supply has run dry. ah, the arrival of the water truck bring some relief. but tim bonnie knows that it also spills hot water. she has to carry the

water all the way home for herself and her 4 grandchildren. yet goose, let her know you're getting sick because of carrying this water every day. my joins hurt. i have body pains, i have to take painkillers to sleep or go to the clinic, especially 1st elderly people. the situation is painful. any papers with that is that sad and cruel. this damn should provide water for her home, but it's almost empty. it's only filled to less than 15 percent of its capacity. only 4 percent is usable water rainfall is getting more and more sporadic and it isn't as heavy as it used to be. for 7 years the area has been in the grip of a historic droughts. but while climate change certainly plays a role mismanagement, decaying infrastructure and a lack of maintenance, certainly due to it, is estimated that about one 3rd of the water supply are lost due to leaking pipes. the scale of the problem is clear to see all over town. residents report about

200 leagues every day. the city has employed additional staff for repair works, and new wealth are being drilled, ground water supposed to help black the gap that the missing rain water has left the head of what a distribution for the municipality says. but why didn't all this happen much earlier? the, quite a number of reasons. so some of them in financial arrangements are obviously from the study, the point of view. we've got competing priorities from a service delivery perspective. and in some of is m a versus financial versus the directed to other projects. a lot of people we talked to actually blame lumens of healthy for the current situation. at this point in time, my focus is to be able to deliver the metro and push that they 0 and all our efforts, you know, i'm a going towards that day 0. that's the day when all water reserves will be used up, the worst case scenario. to avoid it,

each resident is supposed to use no more than 50 liters of water per day, with a municipality threatening to impose strict controls. in the poor neighbourhood of simple kazi, tim vanita, people feel they have been given empty promises for months. even the water truck that is a lifeline for so many isn't organized by the municipality. it comes from an 8 organization called gift of the give us a willing municipality at length the municipality, but asked the politicians when it is time to campaign for votes. you find a lot of them here asking for votes, but when the time comes to deliver services to the people they are nowhere to be found. when we need water, they are nowhere to be found like i called people cause it and bonnie has given up hope and politics. her only remaining hope that rain may fall soon, so she will get a break from the hard work of fetching water. england's football team have been given a rapturous reception in london,
