the the, this is the w use line from building flooded made to make some big promises to advocate at a high level, somebody in st. petersburg, a bunch of a president places, thousands of tons of free grain. this john stays off to pulling out of the ukraine . grain export deal is as president balance to defend democracy in his country. of

the members of his own god. barricade him inside his palace. they've declared occurred sparking protests in the capital process. defense minister hold stilts with north korea's lead to in killed game. this is the goal marks the set vs end of us where you have the korean war armistice. and at the women's world compo, repeats of the 2019 final as the deadlines, whole writing champions usa to withdrawal inmate groups. h matched the i've been visible and woke up, but it may boot and it says russia will provide free grain to 6 african nations in the coming months. the russian presidents made the promise during assembled with the african leaders in some pitas, but most good. we simply withdrew from the black sea deal that had allowed ukraine to ex,

for much needed supplies to the consulate. process decision has post up level grain prices again and further threaten food security and positive. i forget what do you mean by the speaking of the somebody who said his country would compensate for the lack of grain making its way to africa. our country is ready to make up for the ukrainian drain, both on commercial basis and free of charge to those countries in africa that are in dire need, especially since we expect tobacco time harvest city to provide to booking a fast. those involved with molly somalia, the central african republic and every tree is debated to supply $2550.00 you sold in terms of rain to each will ensure free shipping of these call co let's, let's get more of this without correspondence about him. the and i robi and funny

for time riga math is um, put this into context for us is, is this a promise for from tutoring for free grades in, in exchange for support for his war and you can as well i would be cautious with that kind of statesman, because african countries have been very divided on that question you, we couldn't, we, we sold that into a un resolutions and the general assembly. so there are some countries who are, you know, very clearly on russia side. and interestingly, some of these countries that we just heard that are profiting from this brain supplies, it's free, grand supplies, the pushing just a problem is so announced and central african republic molly and also book, you know, fossil that all wagner operations, active wagner operations in mali. and in central african republic can f s a has

shown openness to that, but it's not yet clear if they're already locked in a soldiers on the ground. so you can, you can see that they made. you could think that this could be seen as a reward for loyalty to russia because these countries are not as hard as hit from the food crisis, from drought, for a really in dire need of food and grain like somalia, which is among the 6. but it's, you'll be a, for example, kenya, and then all of kenya is also very much affected. so these countries, ethiopia, kenya, and they are not among this 6 countries. ok, funny, what do you make of the now it's been considering ross a how to deal with turkey you when at ukraine to safely ship ukrainian grain for the was the end of the black sea that wasn't extended by russia. now, russia's extending, it's had to, to do africa saying here,

take out free russian. right. so, definitely that greenville van is pretty much that at this point. and now you have rough shows trying to actually portray itself almost like a savior here because you know, extending it's help to a couple of applicant countries. but we just heard from our yeah, there's so many there that actually needs help. so if you look at that, the actual greenville did, at least, brooke, to a certain extent of the past. yeah. much more help could arrive already if russia didn't back out from the green the last week. in fact, it's not just about the supply of grain, and i think some people may confuse that. it's not just about the physical arrival of grain is the fact the pure fact that the greenville doesn't exist at this point, that russia back out from it. that or the lead students to believe you on the markets when it comes to commodities like when you, when it comes to grain. so those prices already went up. so hands, even if russia manages to live a couple of thousands of tons of, of green to suit and countries that's still going to be the solution, per se,

rather here. and that's what african delegations we actually also hoping for when coming to this a summit to st. petersburg. what about an extra revival of that deal? because it's not just about washed yet on that level. it's about ukraine and russia . that is so important in terms of branding ports for example. first of all the for example, for uh can you issue? yeah, as my colleague just mentioned it, so therefore it, yes, definitely puts you in prison and put in is going to sell. this has a very positive in use in a way that now we're all look at russia. you will need russia in order to make sure that people in the parts of africa do not struggle because of hunger. but then if you really zoom in on that and i'll spend you really just one, the really, 1st of all, how much of a positive impact this can really have. also looking at the very fact that why we are talking uh the, the, the pores of, of this uh, the ukrainian ports where our grain is, ford is being simply almost constantly bump since rush out left. that green. the ok

. so a very, very conflicting messages in a way, and you just really have to see what else is there to come. as somebody says, just be gone. and there's a lot more attached to this deal. of course, it's not just about grain, we're talking about trade. we're talking about weapons model, can you tell us what more african leaders expect to gain from these tools? well, yeah, as it, as i mentioned, trade is a big factor. even though russia did not really invest a lot in the past, actually, after or during the last summit in 2019, in such a rush, i pledged to double trade with russia up to $40000000000.00 us dollars. but actually since then, trade has only dropped down to $14000000000.00. so african, he does have been very disappointed by that. could also be seen as a reason why so many opportunity does have not shown up to the summit. of course, at some, some leaders or some african heads of state hope to align some deals,

some trade deals some investments. he and that in different the various fields from id to security, to education or shoot me an entire in support. but um, as i already mentioned before about in us, the, the, the private army, the most of the army really plays a huge role in this for some countries. and also these operations seems to expand on the continent as the president put in. of course, he wants to use also this opportunity on the summit to expand political influence by using this narrative, saying, africa and russia has to unite against the new colonialist west. that is undermining traditional values and to try to really tries to win over african hobbs and mines here. yeah. well there's that much at stake. stability in africa, stability in europe as well. they don't use my availability for us, and i wrote the funny font shot in re you guys. thank you very much to both of you for joining in and as we just heard there suprises

a soaring in many african nations due to president booth this decision to pull out of that ukrainian grain deal, including k. yeah. it's currently in the grip of the worst drought for decades, leaving hundreds of thousands depended on food aid, the w's for that. nothing got reports. how much color is responsible for feeding? 10 people, including had grandchildren. the kids helped make decent rooms to sell to a local shop. it's the only income selling 12 raises enough to buy at 3 kilobytes of may slot. the family have no land. they fled their home during the 2008 post electronic flashes in kenya. for date helps, but no longer comes regularly was that i'd be glad to put you on the model and got the model. i'm busy, we used to get a twice a year. i level and then they brought stuff for us once

a month. and i'll put you on mama more. yeah. but then it still is as a mil for the we're still waiting for the next delivery yourself. it's hurting us. we're just waiting to see if we get food or not. some of the williams is highlights. grandson, he said he's had he'd love to become a doctor, but he sees landings had an empty stomach. and again, this union and when i'm hungry, i can't concentrate. we rely on the little food the or for us in school. at least you can close into it, then i stay in school and study for extra hours in the hope that when i get home, there will be something. but when i get home like nothing and i have to sleep on an empty stomach and wake up hungry honda is cooking ports, as you mean and use all the this great, soc is now used to fill your 10 fields. the last time she cook anything was last

night. they eat again this evening, but there is nothing in between. a good come on, you run into hunger has become like a neighbor to us and it's always here. others, even when we eat, we remain hungry and what else can we do? we don't have any of the place to go or about anything else we can do about this. i said, how do i go satisfied without food aid? how children will continue going to bed hungry, and they'll continue struggling with studies. cool. there was food program can funds that how can sense of my lead? and unless there's an increase in dollars and the black sea green initiative resumes, then people like how will continue suffering with hunger, w, p, regional, direct stuff for east africa, say a suspension of the grain deal will have terrible consequences for that port if people are going to reduce the size of the males, they're gonna cut meals. they've got to adopt alternative ways of trying to survive with less. and this is wayne,

mount nutrition rates will increase. this is when hunger rates will increase. we're already in a bad situation. my fear is was the suspension of the steel, the situation could get was higher prices add pressure and then such a into for her and her family. we'll have to try to add more just to survive. these patients made a lot of that we making every day had, and dreams seemed even farther away. let's bring you up to date now on some of the other stories making use. more than 40 people have been killed in wild fires across southern europe. 55 has increase, have been battling claims around the country for 2 weeks. now. week officials say more than 600, while buyers have broken off in the last fortnight. pfizer also raging in croatia. it is lee in spain to europe, and the ombudsman has launched the inquiry into the role of a huge border agency in the operations of rescue survivors from

a micro boat that's think off the great coast in j context reported. they offered assistance during the incident, which the hundreds that the on but sped says it's not clear what else the agency could or should have done. the president of new sham a homage. but as soon as taken to social media vowing to protect what he called hot one democratic gates. as of the soldiers in the west african nation claimed to have removed him from power. lighter announcing they had taken control of the country or the gunfire outside me, just presidential palace after president mohammed buzzer is detained by his phone protection from us. then came the announcement. jasmine, if you had one bedroom selected government, we, the defense and security forces under the national committee for the salvation of

the people, have decided to put an end to the regime. you know, this follows the declaration made in view of the security situation and report economic and social governance level. there's been a leak associate. the president's intentions and bedroom support goes into the streets from the capital in the i'm a poppy about going on. so yeah, you, when just the people the way here to defend democracy, we're here to defend the republic that way. here's a show our commitment to the rules laws and say no to any attempt to seize power by force of people. us bottle is i'm quite a lot for president bus. one was elected in 2021. taking the country might

involve a deep and economic and stability. i must be in the modeling. remember, it was the 1st baseboard transition of bar since independence limited candidate to the international community, including the african union, the u. n. the european union. i'm the united states have condemned to move and demanded the release of new jazz president of the secretary journalist following closely the situation in new jersey. he condemns in the strongest terms any efforts to cease power by force and to undermine dec democratic governance, peace and stability. in new share, the secretary general calls on all actors involve to exercise restraint and ensure the protection of constitutional order. do 9 nation stands by the government and people of new share. as one of those i have last boston of democracy, nisha has been invite to the west and ally, an anchor of stability. neighboring molly and burkina faso have had 4 goals in 3

years. and the struggling to find out is that miss militants got started making. these are the focus of west and 8 to contain both that growing militancy and political instability. a decade long enough for that wednesday is people are, has to landed out the visual correspondent, the neighboring nigeria. i'm a quite a, bring this up to date on the latest developments. right, ben. we rather see an interesting developments really coming out from this year, especially crowds of protest as now god read as you know, the dose of national assembly in the capital miami. you know, in supports of the cool as well as the military now has also placed a lead done. so, you know, i've shown that supports to the defense and security forces that indeed ousted president mohammed up

a zoom this know kind of the foreign minister who says that he is now the integrity the i'm, that's the let, the government remains. and the, just to me, but with these happening now, if we click post to watch, we saw earlier, i'm saying that this is what we want. then this seems to be already taking place in new jersey in terms of the cold. and i'm like how, what do we know about a, sorry, i lost you a bit. what do we know about the group that started the code? right, so the, the, yesterday we did know that's the, we have the presidential gods. you know, the lots of the presidents at the time in the past is a when this escalated and then of course we saw members from the defense and security code fostering saying, you know, we have not over run this government for lack of a better word on the we're now in charge. so as far as we know this a saw just also i live the military joining forces not with the military was saying what support is the parts of this. it's really does seem like the government is on

the phone and the ministry is non joining forces with the defense. you know, security forces to say, yes, this school has happened. i mean, did that in china, as you do know, they have dissolved the constitution of dissolved also all to, to intervene so clearly seem like they are really in charge. that is the most forces that have been increasing their influence in the hell range? no question. because we do know that need 0 has had it for a share of insecurity. you know, in situation from do you have this group as well? and so with these coal, it's kind of wasn't the situation because even trying to put the country together becomes difficult. if the challenge for that, because there was already chaos, i'm the, the, the country don't seem to know. well, we are as a part of the cool, there is going to be more kills. and really there is no reason that we already know has been you know, flags by a lot of all of the security to use. i'm a kind of cool. yeah. in that goes, thank you very much. how it goes, ship carrying more than $3000.00 vehicles. the vessel was sailing from the the

coast guard says the blaze could be boning for days. at least one crew members dead and 22 others injured. officials say they're doing everything possible to prevent the ship from sinking, as it could cause a huge oil spill. a journalist, isabella shaffer's, gave us this update from the dodge island of on a few kilometers from i. the ship ran into trouble. yeah, the vessel is still burning. um and the fire fighting keeps being very difficult because with vessel itself, it's so hot that nobody can go on board. that's why that's right until now to cool down from outside with water, but they have to stop doing so because it's too much water comes onto the vessel. there's a high risk of the best thing. and so, and so now they're just trying to keep the situation under control cost by the wind and is the current uh the investment is drifting with. but it's quite stabilized with the help of another ship and know everything they can do. it's trying to,

to prevent the ship from thinking and in the end, if they have to, they have to let the fire burn until the end. no 3 is leader kim jong and has made with russian defense minister, so casual in killed gang to discuss better military cooperation according to the state by media the to reach the consensus on a number of unspecified methods of mutual consent. the waste is repeatedly accused north korea of supporting russia with its for a new crime, something killing young tonight's show who was invited to visit those career along with a chinese delegation to take part in ceremonies, knocking the 70 of anniversary of the offices that hold of finding in north korea's war with the south the cold war lives on the drum, the demilitarized still between north and south korea. south korean soldiers keep close watch on every move the communists. neighbors make tensions of running high

as north korea tests, as a more sophisticated besides some can even reach cities in the us, the country that has pledged to protect south korea. this is most dangerous moment because there is a shortage of a symmetric, the capabilities, those go ahead which is nuclear capability. once they either use new nukes or threaten seriously. so that, since you use to use nukes, we don't have any plan or keep an eye to keep to from the country. and it is very thoughtful that whether american government to actually responded with new do nuclear weapons, north and south korea formerly still at war with each other. the demilitarized zone bulls established in july 1953 when they ended 3 years of bloody war. with the korean armistice agreement. relations between the 2 have had many highs and lows over the past 70 years. but they have now cooled considerably. reunification is not

high on the agenda for many people in the south korean capital. so young age might be uh, get a lot of pressure by leaving their own life. but at the same time, if we are thinking about the reunion, is some point the how about like a concern, do we have to take care of them to community they want and i worry about the increase taxes. i will have to pay off to a possibly unification. that might concern the one of them, i guess for a most like all or koreans like with my age, i think they see a more of a distance topic rather than re unification. i think most people want to like just total separation. i think outside most of to some poles in south korea. sho, about 3 quarters of the public now support the idea of nuclear armament to counter threats from the north. johnson who owns this south korea should accept the fact that the north has nuclear weapons instead of insisting on nuclear ization as

a precondition for talks. he things south 3 of us to not he's when it signed the so called the nuclear ization declaration. just as ukraine was when it gave up it's nuclear weapons, budapest member run. one of the reason why the cross itself plans are concerned about it is nuclear threat is that we have seen what you can express tuesdays. we will understand that you print with nuclear weapons would not be in bed by the rush . you know, they won't have to have to do from russia who is supposed to provide security guarantee to create very similar destiny. is the evidence, even though he say walking the streets of sold this frozen conflict seems very far away until one encounters, one of the many memorial sites in town, like here at the warm museum of korea. commemorating the 10s of thousands of south

korean and united nation soldiers who died in the korean war 7 decades later lasting peace still seems out of reach. the to the women's world cup where the united states and the netherlands met in a rematch of the 2019 final. the dump side looked primed for an opposite is off the scoring the games 1st goal. but the americans manage the one a little. the judge came into the match with the promise of finding that gets the feeling woke up champions. the us packing more punch in the 1st half the netherlands took the lead through midfielder jew roared, and the 17 minute dominique incident nearly doubled the lead for the 2017 european champions. but over shot the target, the us went in and a half time trailing in a world cup match for the 1st time in over a decade. over coming to detroit, at 1st half the us seas controlled, and that is

a 62 minute equalizer on a heather from cope. happy lindsey horace river . see the momentum during a 2nd here on slide. the us piled forward in search of a winter, but it wouldn't count, leaving this hard but bad a level at 11, the author, the match play is from both sides, gave us the reaction to the girl. 4 years ago was a long time ago and we've grown also and i think we, we showed the world that we are better or us very close to them. honestly, it was just a simple matter of us putting a little bit more pressure on them. i think we dropped off them and gave them a little bit too much more speed. uh, too much space. i think 2nd half and close those gaps a little bit more. and, you know, at the end of the day, like, you know,

we know that teams are gonna bring their best game against us. you know, the 1st half wasn't the most terrible, half of me ever down the goal. but i mean, knowing the us we, we always find a way to kind of get ourselves back in it and we learn from it a half time. and, uh, yeah, now we have another game to prepare for. up next, focused on your mates. the young russians hiding abroad from the business boring you paint advanced as well as the

man hiding because he refuses to kill on the run because he doesn't want to die to man out of thousands and russians who don't want to fight in the sleep price. they pay is living in fear of being found in prisons or cents to the front focus on your next on d, w. the shadow side is going green kobolds premises,
