the together. what's the quote the, this is the, the, the news coming to live from berlin gunshots are reported in the corner of the car box. residents accuse us or by sean and finally adding a c spar as hawks on the future of disputed territory. wrap up. 2 days of finding gave us the push on a swift military victory over the regions separate. it's also coming out pulling hints it's flow of weapons to ukraine, may not be guaranteed, keep appears at risk of losing the aid of one of his strongest allies after
2:01 pm
diplomatic tensions escalate. those tensions stem from a dispute over ukrainian grain plus new life from stem cells, scientists and israel make a break through and growing embryos without a fertilized egg. we look into what that means for the future of humanity. the hello, i'm terry morris, and good to have you with us. i think our meetings are accusing azerbaijan, the security forces, violating a ceasefire deal on the go into a car, a buffer in the nicole in a car box region. authority said the gunshots were heard in the center of the regional capital, especially on is denied violating sees fire. this comes, has peace talks between both parties, wrap up in the city of left, last, in azerbaijan, with no final agreement of the talks were scheduled after. as well as john secured
2:02 pm
us with military victory over ethic, armenians, separatists in colorado. but territory is internationally recognized as part of azerbaijan, even though most was residents or ethnic armenians. it has long function as of the fact to autonomous region d, w. 's. maria cut him, i'd say, is in the armenian capital year of bon. earlier i asked her what more she could tell us about these a, let's see, spar modifications. well, we are hearing from the voices from now going to a car box that indeed they can hear some guns far in the center of the capital city . step on the chairs, one of local tells me that you can hear gunfire next to the hospital. so if we just right in the center, so this creation is quite di and it seems like this tracing of the cities quite kyle tech and people are running to the shelters of the their panicking and they do
2:03 pm
not know what to do for now. they just, there's also no electricity, very poor internet connection, but we have trying to reach those people and they're telling us that they are just hiding. and also we are receiving calls, some on verified reports that are there by johnny forces are advancing from the outskirts of the city right to the center of the city. but of the, the situation on the ground change was really fast. so for now we cannot really verify independence the as of now that information. now these and verified reports that the cease fire has been broken. they come after 2 days of peace talks between us about john and armenia. what came out of those talks, if anything is uh well uh, if you ask uh, lets say as or by john, i said by johnny side,
2:04 pm
they will. they will tell you that we talked about bringing to gratian. we talked about safety, all for car boxy armenians, but the they did not go into details. they did not say exactly what, what was the treatment of these negotiations. but the separatists are saying that they have to ensure their, the security and the safety of the people 1st before they can lay down their weapons. so as a side, the situation is quite fluid now and still the, the agreement was not reached. and that's what we actually some of the, some of the experts and some of the people, even in the car about expected. because this is the conflict that has been ongoing for such a long time. that it's going to be really difficult to resolve all the issues with the just one meeting. that's what we're hearing. maria, thank you very much for bringing this up to date there. that was our correspondent, marie, a couple months here in europe on let's catch up on some of the stories making
2:05 pm
headlines around the world today, ukraine's president. well, all of them is a lansky has called for russia to be stripped of its veto power at the special session of the united nations security council. so lensky said, russia's invasion of his country violated both the norms of war and the un itself. but there is no mechanism in the un charter for expelling a permanent security council. lensky and india has stopped processing baez's for canadians until further notice as the 2 countries remain locked in a diplomatic dispute. canadian prime minister just intruder has accused indian authorities of being involved in the killing of a 6 separate this leader in canada. billy also said it wants to reduce the number of canadian diplomats in india. stollins government says it will deliver all of the weapons that had previously promised to ukraine. that's after prime minister month to which motor
2:06 pm
b etzky caused confusion. when he said an interview with this country had stopped sending arms. diplomatic tensions between warsaw on keys are due or high due to a dispute over health to sell your cleaning grain in europe and brings ruins. you've training the president for all the major landscape at the un general assembly. making the condemnation of russia's aggression against this country warehouse was for european neighbors refusing to report ukrainian grain consultations. and it is alarming to see how some your it, some our friends in you are, play outside entirety and police go see a time making through, learn from the green. and they may seem to play their own role. but in fact, they are helping, helping set the stage to in most school after here's what we're seeing as a direct criticism a more so and drew a swift tribute to solve
2:07 pm
a miracle. the statement that countries such as poland or supporting russia is completely inconsistent with reality, which is very painful for many people in poland. millions of pose have helps you crazy and helps you crazy and refugees. and we are still helping them. with most blocking ukraine's blocks the ports, the route via europe is vital folk chief to sell its main export. poland is one of several eastern european countries, defying your ruling on lifting a bond on ukrainian grain with an expense new means the government is keen to avoid competition for polish farmers. but it was done by the landscape criticism. it'll be prime minister my to which more of antiques i seem to take back the announcing that poland would no longer assigned to ukraine and instead focus on modernizing the polish military. but ex, i'd say there's, there's no, i change, of course,
2:08 pm
for one of the biggest donors of ministry age to ukraine. i don't think that prime minister, i wanted to say that poland would no longer be involved in the transfer of weapons to ukraine. she just, i think that it was she wanted to quote when you kate is to say, but uh but, but, but the web phones that publish wipers will no longer be transferred to your claim because whatever they yeah but pos, solve the index of it. the funds will have all of had it on its disposal. they what they have already to be transferred to you, cried. the master of upgrade to poland may treat as a result of russia's invasion, a few crane countries, and also as a ball work against the russian expansionism. despite the rhetoric a strong ukraine remains, feminine. poland some national interest now could human biological reproduction one day become obsolete? that's the question researchers in israel or exploring for now it looks impossible
2:09 pm
to create a human baby without a mother and father to hell. but they've made striking progress in growing an embryo. basically from scratch, this is what a 2 week old embryo looks like, but it didn't come from the fusion of a sperm cell and an accel. it was made from stem cells. researchers from the vitamin institute of science and israel learned how to reprogram stem cells into cells found in an early stage embryo. after jacob hannah's teen mix them together. a few turned into balls of cells called aggregates, which grew into something that strikingly resembled human embryos. about one percent of the aggregates, we can see that these thoughts start differentiating correctly, migrating and sorting themselves into the correct structure. and the farthest we could get is, is day for team and human embryos develops scientists and the field are quick to
2:10 pm
point out that even if the cell aggregates start to look and act like embryos is still far from the real thing, the method has limits. i want to emphasize that if you're talking about trying to make a whole baby pregnancy outside of uterus, that is just impossible because the human embryo is very big for this is 9 months. so that is not, it's not, it's not our goal. it's actually also impossible on the no concerns about that. instead, the goal is to create models that give a better understanding of what happens directly after an egg is fertilized without the ethical concerns involved. and using real human embryos. even now to little is known about early development and what can go wrong in the 1st crucial weeks after conception. it's a time when many pregnancies is f. i filed so refreshing site that might come from
2:11 pm
the use of the stand. so based models of human embryos might lead to a better understanding of the causes of miscarriage. and indeed some of the really unique aspects of these are the stages of human development that could lead to important medical breakthroughs in reproduction. but the technology also takes us one step further into an ethical mind field. as for lauren, this i'm joined by dw science reporter on a comp house of this sounds like a huge development. how significant is this new research? the thing is, we know, disturbing the level about the beginning of our existence, our 1st days and weeks of life, or just impossible to study without doing harm to the embryo in the womb of the mother. so there are technical boundaries and they are ethical boundaries. why we should not do that and but those at the same time this as a period in which many pregnancies, if not the majority of pregnancies fail,
2:12 pm
and we just don't know why. so using embryo models as of work around as a very elegant and very useful tool research is could use to treat and understand miscarriages. genetic diseases, birth effects, they could use them to understand how drugs work use during early pregnancy is something you also wouldn't do with a really pregnant mother and the unborn life. and they could and this was something for the far, far, far distance away future. they could also be used to one day grow transplant issues and oregon's. and this is of course, something many people around the world could benefit from. okay. so potential benefits there potentially huge benefits and yet this, this procedure, what they're doing, they're in, in the lab and is real, is considered usually controversial to explain to us what the ethical concerns are . well, to study these questions we just spoke about. research is one to come as close to the real human embryo as possible. and until recently, that wasn't
2:13 pm
a problem because the embryo models they created for on the a sketchy resemblance to the real thing. but these times are over now as dumps will, biologist. i spoke to told me that seeing the models we just saw in the report by they had our group sent a chill down his spine as they were so similar to real human embryos. that's why researchers are eager to say this, i'm not real embryos. these are not real embryos, they're just embry your models. but we have to wonder when do embryo models when they come so far, step models, something models and become equivalent to the real thing? sure, it's, you know, it's a frankenstein, the notion here coming, coming to life. the scientist in the report indeed said that there's a long ways to go again before anything like a, a real human embryo or it can be created route. but they're not there yet. saying it's impossible actually to do that is not really the case or is this, is this not what the whole process of doing?
2:14 pm
what they're doing is leading towards, i totally understand why these researchers say it's impossible to do that. they want to continue doing their research and they are aware of the frankenstein scenario that you mentioned that a lot of media reports mentioned. so they stress it's, it's not possible at the moment, but they're also legal restrictions preventing them and preventing that. and at the moment, this human model, these and real models are far away from ever being transplanted into a room, which is what they would be needed. because as of now, it's possible to, to nourish a couple of cells in a, in a preacher petri dish. but it's not possible to do the same with a whole baby. however, research and this field is progressing at an unprecedented speed. only this year, 6, some of the papers 6, some of the models were published. and in april researches creates embryo monkey embryo models and transplanted them into the new addresses of sign them august. my
2:15 pm
case, the pregnancies if they worked at all last it only a couple of days. so it's really important distress so far. there's no animal or human embryo model that ever formed in the unites, but research is doing baby steps towards that possibility. well, we'll keep watching those baby steps on a cod house dw science report. thank you very much. i. if you're watching the the news up next, it's focus on your on terry martin. thanks. watch the, the in charlotte the comment key more people than ever on the world wide in such a base in life on the bus. and so jessica admitted absolutely gosh, find out about rubinez story info, migraines.
