the global struggle with and nothing can be done. the 1st starts on august 10th on d w, who ah, this is d w. news line from berlin. ukraine resumes great shipments to the world cargo vessel set off across the black sea. after turkey declares from safe to sail, now the 1st to transport ukrainian grain from ukrainian port since the start of russia's war, also on the program, taiwanese media before the us house speaker, nancy pelosi will visit the country during her current trip to asia,

despite angry warnings from china, germany is foreign minister, the fans, a landmark and non proliferation treaty at the you and the secretary general wants of humanity is just one misunderstanding away from nuclear annihilation. i'm severe drives tightens. it's chris on the south africa eastern cape report from the city of come back, where residents are struggling as the taps run dry. ah, ah, i'm fil gail. welcome to the program. the 1st grind shipment to leave you crime, since the start of russia's invasion has set sail to he, which is over seeing a deal between the countries in the u. n said it was safe to reach you 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 gray, ukraine's hoping today's departure will be the 1st of many. ah, the ship's horn is the sound of hope. ukraine's harvest of finally come back to life. after months of blockades, following the russian invasion. what look at that ship out there? that's to rezone. what a beautiful name, stevie ah eighty's, hope that the 1st shipment of 26000 tons of con will be the 1st of many moscow welcome the end of the deadlock, but also called for sanctions to be lifted. key remains cautious, saying this 1st shipment will be the test. now, of course our, when we have this corridor, ah, we hope that everyone will respect it. and of course they, you know, we are rolling on the u. m. on

a turkey. make sure that no one will detect those ships. ukraine's aim is to exports, at least $50000000.00 tons of grain by the end of the year. a potential life length of those who depend on selling their produce to the world. will dw correspondent begin a sugar in cave, told me about the measures ukraine has taken to ensure the ships get to istanbul safely. 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 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 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 were side, russia had attacked the ports. and in addition to that, the heavy attacks on the port a ton 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 those attacks on bigelow. yes, mc alive has a scene and

a huge shelling over the over the past days. but it, what is also a 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, we got a message from her, from a local governor, claiming that a ukraine was able to retake 46 settlements in the southern harrison region. we haven't any confirmation on that, but it seems as if the counter offensive president soleski has been talking so long about is gaining momentum. but at the same time,

russia is deploying troops from the east and back to the south to in the reinforce their position center, defend the territory. they had a 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. the kosovo has postpone the introduction of tougher border controls with serbia after plant triggered riots and police was shot at authorities of now removed road blocks put there by ethnic serbs right. started after the cost of our government announced a decision that would force of people in majority, ethics, or barriers to swap their license. plates for kosovo issued won't. sirens rang through the night as police shut, the barren jak and yet a new 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 to new ruling from the cause of in 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. this standoff left many people stuck at border control. unable to get back home. and i can, i can, 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 it on. hello, michael, this serbian president said his government would preserve peace at any cost but landing. this is melissa. if they dared to persecute serbs mistreat serbs, kill serbs,

so be a 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 is fragile. peace is maintained by a natal mission, which has $3770.00 trips 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 cause of and government has agreed to postpone the new rulings until september 1st. as the ethnic serbs have removed the barricades. soldiers from both sides continue to patrol the border following the unrest. the several taiwanese media outlets reporting that you as how speaker nancy pelosi will visit the island. despite threats from china was closes currently in singapore, the start of a high profile trip to asia. beijing has repeated its warnings regarding what it would consider a provocation rule. hello, he truly rel if the speaker of the house of representatives pelosi visits taiwan, the chinese side will definitely take resolute and strong counter measures in the culture in response into wonder and defended sovereignty. and territorial integrity drew users from his water as to what measures were without guns if she does to go,

then let us wait and see over. white house national security spokesman, john kirby said. nancy pelosi has every right to visit taiwan. and there's no reason for beijing to turn this visit into a crisis. beijing's actions could have unintended consequences that only served to increase tensions. we expect to see beijing continue to use inflammatory rhetoric and dis information in the coming days. or of a daily, as director of the wilson census kissinger institute on china and the united states, i asked him what nancy pelosi would hope to achieve by visiting taiwan and annoying the chinese in this way. we are starting 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, as increase its 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, well 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 is now committed to making some response with the people's liberation army that they haven't made previously. that does not mean and it probably won't mean pulling a trigger. it will mean that doing something like flying over the midline between in the taiwan straits between taiwan and mainland china and action that will mean nothing to, to most americans. certainly. and most people in the world, it could mean going into taiwan airspace, which it hasn't done previously. it could mean escorting or shadowing. a speaker of

the house is playing for part of its trip. i 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 a new precedent and a new baseline for relations between china, taiwan in the united states, which is likely to bring us, you know, a little bit closer to conflict, so if 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 a side and drop this so called strategic ambiguity? i don't think it's time to drop strategic ambiguity quite yet that the united states clearly has changed its attitude toward the one china policy in this began under the trumpet ministration. 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. 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's very clear. thanks for joining us. that robert daly from the wilson centers kissing to institute on china and the united states. thank you. i mean, take a look at more stories making headlines around the world. was that the mere mom or the head of the ruling, the military john to has announced the 6th month extension of the state of emergency mahoney seized power from the elected government of armstrong sir g last

year. if not pledge to hold new elections in august next year, but observe as regard that as unlikely the head of iran's nuclear organization says take run has the technical capability to produce an atomic bomb, but has no intention of doing so. uh huh. as long as comments came as the use external representative, joseph burrell, 6 to salvage a 2015 nuclear cord, is the islam he said, the hope for a swift conclusion. to negotiations. a german foreign minister annalynne a bab orkeys in new york for a meeting to review. the landmark 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 its war in ukraine, and spoke about the challenges posed by other countries like iran and nuclear arms, north korea. the long delayed conference was scheduled to take place in 2020,

but had to be postponed several times because of the cove it pandemic. a here, 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 use again and to work 2 words. our common goal of the word free of nuclear weapons. but they doubly corresponding mikaela. kirchner is a new yorker covering of a foreign ministers speech, and told us what stood out to her. it 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 war? that doesn't seem to be that terribly much point making progress on such a huge issue. and despite those lofty what they're all concrete steps, as that's the countries, the willing countries are demanding, particularly of rasa china, also iran, which is more transparency. and she called on iran, particularly to now take on that packet. 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 just that, 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. and let's talk about the, 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 office non proliferation treaty?

well, no fast movement is expected that much is for sure this conference goes on for an entire month. so that is a lot of talking done behind closed doors. and 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 cooling international leaders. a 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 of nuclear energy. and so the expectations i have to say are pretty no, but the hope is that by keeping it on the agenda and there will be at least a degree of a public shaming 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 today,

who expect yet another at nuclear test. i thank you for mckayla kinda cooper and new york. this is the dublin news. i still come england's line as is deliver the country's biggest football championship and decades will look at why it's a big victory for women, for the women's game as well. first to south africa. and at 4 years ago, cape town was facing the threat of day 0 when its water was expected to run out. i did naturally happen because people did save water and then the rains came. now another town has the same problem. tobacco formerly known as port elizabeth in the eastern cape, has experienced a 7 years of drought. i corresponded at an increase report not a drop in the tap in simple kazi tim bonnie's house for 7 months. now. the supply has run dry. the arrival of the water truck bring some relief,

but tim bonnie knows that it also spells hard work. she has to carry the water all the way home for herself and her 4 grandchildren. yet go let her know you're getting sick because of carrying this water every day. my giants 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 paper for that is that flat control, 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 wells are being drilled. ground water is supposed to help black the gap that the missing rain water has left the head of water distribution for the municipality says. but why didn't all this happen much earlier? the, quite a number of reasons. some of them in financial arrangements are obviously from the study, the point of view. we have good competing priorities from a service delivery perspective. and in some of with a versus manager of the director to other projects, a lot of people we talk 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 the day 0 and. busy our

efforts, you know, according to our 3rd day 0, that's the day when all water reserves will be used up the worst 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 eunice bally, i blame the municipality. but after 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 can't see because it and bonnie has given up hope in politics. her only remaining hope that rain may fall soon so she will get

a break from the hard work of fetching water. so all stories from around the world now will start in portugal, which is battling are made forest fires after another weekend of temperatures. over 40 degrees celsius, $400.00. the firefighters have been brought into battle. blaze near the capital. lisbon, other fires are burning in northern and central areas with those regions on alert, with the high temperatures likely to last until tuesday. fiance has said she will re record a song from her new album after disability campaign has criticized the lyrics. and in her track heated contained the term, the spin used to demean people with spastic cerebral palsy. things publicist said the word had not been used in any intentionally harmful way. england, the czar football team have received a rapturous reception in london, trafalgar square after defeating germany. to one,

the final at euro 2022. and the total was a huge success for the lionesses and for the sport where the record crowds turning out to watch the games. oh, it's taken 56 years, but it's finally come home. and it took the women of england to achieve what the men have failed to do. and the secret that the lioness is success simply, they're very, very good football players. the very, very good people. yes, ma'am. the willingness, the commitment, the resilience of the behavior to watch each other. the support has been so incredible and most of all the willingness to want to win so badly and they won . it's a victory, not only for the lionesses also england,

but for women's football worldwide. the year 2022 was a festival of footballing progress and exciting game playing in front of crowds that were bigger than ever before. ah, i think england posted an incredible totem and i'm gonna change the game in this country and hopefully across europe, across the world. but we said that we wanted to make our legacy about winning and that's what we did. they may have fallen at the final hurdle, but the tournament runs up. germany's national team also did the country and the sport crowd receiving a heroes welcome. when they arrived home in frankfort, also krauter may depart in changing the fate of women's all the same. it's mission euros or it, but it's not back to business. as usual. we hope we're really at the start of thing in our sport. will stay on the ball and won't let the state into nothing. i'm glad we hope we'll get a lot more exposure and that will inspire

a lot of girls to take up the game of football. and we hope we can change the way football is organized and viewed and our game will be given the respect it deserves . i'll fight and not the england team have already and their funds respect. after english fans was staffed of major tournament success for so long. but once the policy is over, it's hoped that when will give a massive boost to women's football at all levels of the game. as a reminder of our top stores outburst, our ukraine has resumed grain shipments from its black see ports, turkey which is overseeing the implementation of the deal. the 2 countries assigned with the un that it was safer. exports to resume credit had been unable to ship stock files of grain from its port since russia invited in february. and taiwanese media reporting that us how speak and nancy pelosi will visit to taiwan.
