works well and without problems, and delivers energy not only to turkish customers, but to your also. but of so i suppose our european partners should thank turkey for providing continuous transit of our gas to urine latimer pollutant and wretched tie . very dawn are always in touch. they can always pick up the phone and make a phone call or meet face to face like they did in the rain im capital to wrong 2 weeks ago. while now of the, our meeting in san she. why that often? well, when western governments are putting maximum effort into isolating russia, moscow is expecting anchorage to become more than just a partner. boosting trade is one, both sides want, including boosting trade in national currencies and a special memorandum on that is going to be signed today. and mr. vladimir putin thanked ty beardon for that, and also he thanked his counterpart of for mediating the so called ukrainian grain deal,

which allowed the ships with the crating crops to leave the port city of odessa and also unblocked. some of the russian exports known to kit hoosier. i do believe that we will turn a new page in our turkish russian relations. this also applies to energy. this is especially true of the grain corridor through the black sea along which we have taken step austin. i'm the head of an election campaign in turkey, the turkish president is seeking to create a buffer zone in northern syria by carrying out some form of military operation against the kurdish militias in that part of syria which turkey sees as terrorists that for that the turkish government will have to get some sort of green light or possibly a yellow light from russia and the meeting in sashi is a perfect opportune for that. now we do have to remember that turkey is a natal member,

and that's why any close contacts between mister dwan and mister pool will always be carefully watched by major nato countries. and of course the summit in thought she is not an exception. not grain daily was speaking at by more developments, significant ones as well. another 3 ships full of corn left. you printing ports heading to ireland, britain, turkey. today i'm the u. n. you may remember worked with moscow key of to negotiate a d last month to allow more time traffic to resume on the 1st green ship under the left, the black sea port of odessa on monday, adding for lebanon, transporting over 26000 tons of core. and they're the see really is one of ukraine's main grain export products that comes for around 15 percent of global supply. rushes, agriculture minister has borne that sanctions are disrupting green, harvest and russia,

and could exacerbate the food crisis overseas towards the global. the situation on global drain markets is not easy due to a number of climatic reasons such as drought in the usa in europe. floods in australia and weather problems in india. despite the signing of the agreement on ukrainian grain drain production, they will also significantly decrease. all of this combined with the logistical constraints, can lead to serious risks in terms of world food security. this year is well to the skull, the issue just raised there. let's cross live to journalists and political analyst, martin j. martin, always a pleasure to have you in the program. russia said that the food crisis has largely been created by just the problems created by sanctions. against small school and climate issues. are you in agreement that the problem stems from those factors? if so, does the west there for some responsibility as well?

well, there's a home, there's a whole lot of serious issues going on. it's been we, if you look back until even 2020, when, when kobe was getting into full swing, that is also an impact on prices. have been jumping up to as much as $12.00 for a right down to $9.00. now is that stabilizing a bit, but this whole issue, you know, of the screen, colorado is, is a troubling one because we don't really know how it's going to pan out. you know, there's been a great to the focus on ukrainian grain. and mclean weeks, i should say, 6 in the 2 ports of tessa and cinema stuff, you know, but those are not the only thoughts in the entire read like cedar russian course as well. i think there's a certain amount of nervousness now as to whether this is still broken by risk if everyone is going to give fair play to the russians as well. yet weak prices. martin,

they've been recently just looking at the markets here while you were speaking. there centrally, back to levels seen before the conflict in ukraine began. can we conclude the worst of the crisis is behind us because of that? is it a temporary increase or you know, you're talking from morocco, it's one of the countries, indeed africa as a whole. that's affected the worst here are the countries are the areas who need the staple, the most just not able to afford to bid in the markets. what this is that the, the thing is about wheat is that it's a huge commodity which a lot of these countries use for they use as part of a subsidized ation program to feed their own for people. and so, you know, it's, it's not that they don't want a bit more, it's the whole process. now it's become very political, you know, a number of countries turn to russia, tons of putin and said the last few weeks, look, this problem with weight is a really big one. you know, we can't have these real tensions in the regions. you know,

if you start messing around with, which in these countries you're looking at insurgency, political upheaval, even revolutions. another factor is terrorism and migrant flows to, to europe. so those countries went to pitch and who to sign the do i think he did a really pretty big favor to europe at the sign the deal and allows those countries now to trade. really, really interesting issues now will be will those countries the, the weights previously of ukraine continue their contracts with ukraine and also the jump ship? will there be some political bullying from the west to, to, to some of these countries you might want to consider buying grain. we from russia, but it will be so cool. you know, under the, under the influence of, of sanctions, 3rd party sanctions. we saw the power of secondary sections went from plate. this caught with countries around the world who wants to buy oil to run,

such as southern korea, turkey and another. and india and china, you know, he managed the beginning through and for 2nd 2 sections. that's happening on the bottom administration. so secondary sanctions are actually really powerful. thing of certain sections are actually used as a bullying tool. then to come back to your initial point. we'll still have that week problem. very interesting. in another aspect, i'd like to get your thoughts and martin, this green deal appears to be really beyond instance, so far or in months that has been positively broke kurt as the un was part of securing the deal. do you think that's going to encourage more action by the united nations to perhaps intervene further or help deescalate the situation? or what do you think they should really question? yes, exactly. that's really what all hucks. all journalists still thinking right now, you know, is this was this 1st step taken positively?

i think it was. i think that's a real message to both sides. particular to us now, but what we can talk to is open to discussing is open negotiations. look what happened with the great deal. it was very quick, you know, so i think where can we go from there? you know, can we, is there a 2nd wave now? and i see edward being right in the middle mean took his position to serve so well it's, he's right in the middle now of actually rolling out a 2nd or 3rd wave to these talks to actually getting both sides around the table split. think it's a question of what's the space i'm quite positive. i think we'll have more along the same thing in the next couple of weeks. martin. excellent for your time. your thought says always martin, j journalist and political analyst. good bye. for now. 7 people have been killed including a 5 year old child after on earth strike by israeli forces on the gaza strip doubts according to the must run. health ministry on the strip 40 other

people were said at to have been injured. israel said that the leader of the military wing of the islamic jihad organization was killed in what they have dubbed a special operation. now this on verified video, let's take a look at it reportedly shows the aftermath of the attack. an apartment building was also said to have been hit, the strike was a part of the anti g had, is really operation named breaking door and very much flux situation as it stands here. as these pictures can give us a sense of the same time, the is really defense ministry announced a state of emergency in an 80 kilometer zone, around gas extending into israel, which really has been one of the points of contention. israel seen that at garzon forces what they call at terrorists forces cannot dictate the situation is really

border areas and earlier the country's military. and instead of sending more troops to the area near god, in the case of possible reprisal attacks following the strike on the recent arrest of a senior militant in the west bank as well. so we have very much of flux situation in gas that we will continue, of course to keep close eye and development process. beijing severed communication in several areas with washington retaliation for nancy pelosi trip to taiwan. let's go through this very interesting because the ministry has published a list of areas in which there will no longer be any coordination between the 2 countries. it includes dialogue between fence departments, military morrow, time consultation cooperation on the legal migration and climate change. a plan phone call between senior military commanders from the u. s. and china. that's also been canceled. you can just imagine ramifications if that continues earlier on

friday, the chinese foreign ministry, a 9th personal sanctions on high speaker pelosi and her family members are being in a stinging rebuke that the u. s. is quote, an active provocateur and crisis maker. i don't know that everyone knows that the current situation is entirely caused by pelosi and american politicians. this kind of arrogance, selfishness and hypocrisy of the u. s. it should really be changed. the u. s. is an active burbock, a tour and crisis maker. the essence of the taiwan issue is not a democratic issue, but a major principle issue concerning china sovereignty and territorial integrity. while love is being spoken about, china is continuing its life fire drills as part of the operation. beijing has launch. multiple mythos including ballistic warms, regional observer say that's the 1st time chinese missiles have actually flowed over taiwan. and drills are being conducted in 6 zones. we can just take

a look here surrounding the island, 3 of which overlap harry is about to pick contents or part of its territory, a waters taiwan, as well said it has activated its are a defense tracking system to alleging 11 chinese missiles were fired into waters around the aisle also, taiwan was reportedly forced to counsel at least 40 flights. it's largest to report to, to the drills. airlines are trying to avoid tie when these earth base with type pe working to help re route some international flights. not in response, washington has decided to reschedule its own ballistic missile tests off the coast of california. pensions with china surrounding the taiwan crisis. continue to rise as china engages in the stabilizing military exercises around taiwan. the united states is demonstrating. instead,

the behavior over responsible nuclear power by reducing the risks of miscalculation and this perception of the vice chair of the shanghai center thing to like nelson wong believes possi was being deliberately provocative by visiting taiwan, forcing china to retaliate. whether this is going to be a long term thing, or it's just a temporary measure, that's something we have to wait to see. we have to see the developments of the situation is quite obviously, a provocative step. taken by the us side to irritate china. and despite of repeated warnings and disagreements and persuasion, to now say, pollution, pollution, inter counselor, she went ahead and make a trip to taiwan. this is not an individual visit because she has an official

position. she's number 3 in the us government's shoes, the house speaker. of course china is going to to show it's determination. and the note these measures are all part of the retaliation measures of china. ah, no. on thursday pakistan's ruling alliance filed a petition with the election commission, which is seeking a life time disqualification of former prime minister emron can from holding public office again, the former pakistani p. m. however, as he has done repeatedly denies the accusations, the peachy political party collected money from companies in 2012 and the law prohibited this action was formulated in 2017. therefore, no law has been violated. the election commission of pakistan is saying that the money raised by overseas pakistanis is illegal there,

calling it for in funding. tell me if this montes 4 in funding, then what about the remittances and the money that has signed for earthquakes and floods in pakistan, thousands of people, typically the streets of karachi outside the election commission building to protest election agencies, their ruling lethal foreign funding of mister comes party, protestors were seen carrying banners, calling for the chief election commissioners resignation. earlier, the former pm calls on his supporters to gather and peaceful protest while making an address by a video link. now he claimed that no law prohibit its political parties from collecting money from pockets, and he's living overseas in 2012, as it only became a live deal. 5 years after the election commissioned decision is biased and we're here to protest. we demand a free and fair election,

and we're going to the traditional commission to register a complaint against the chief election commissioner as he delivered a horrible decision and deliberately turned it into a foreign funding case. the purpose of the decision is to target only p t. i am to make reservations against the marine cod in such a way that people would turn against that. this can happen because enron con, is honest and trustworthy. they have given the wrong decision. and if they are so concerned about 4 and funding, why didn't they ask other parties who actually have ties to india? we demand early free and fair elections on the legal foundation for em, run counts. disqualification is said to be the non disclosure of information regarding the gifts that he received from dignitaries of foreign states in his asset declaration of the same breach of pakistani constitutional law lead to

a lifetime bond of cans predecessor p. m. now was sharif back in 2017, at sharif on wednesday. courage the federal government to take quote, immediate legal action against count following at the pac on the election commissions at verdict. well, we can delve further into this because coming live under the progress side of the as i a jeffrey who's a research associate at the center for security strategic policy. research of the university of law hor m. ron can, and his party are being accused of receiving millions of dollars in the legal funds from foreign countries. what's this sense and of course, we can't say guilt or otherwise, but what is the sense in the country about those accusations? thank you very much for having me on the issue. i think the santa is pretty clear. it's pretty obvious. this is the election commission bank to the main one particular political party that being the p

d a because these numbers have gotten one of the decisions a few months back. good, good, good. the are being the commission to here and decided to get to the all political parties together. so this is sheila victimization. and if you look at the decision to come from the c, b entered most of the people on the list. they are not for new jersey or they are overseas, but i need to come over on tv and recorded with us and just thing that we have always been overseas. barcus, i need have full rights and privileges to do any political parties involved with which they did and em, ron count accepted that in 2012. and he said that walking for another half a decade later that that was made a legal no law forbid him accepting not. but is there an issue with the

transparency of something like that the leader of the country accepting such, such and such or such a months of gifts. so let me put this into context. sure. and i'm talking about the blended debt, the leader, that the head of the upper foundation, major audit, not to be for him and dad. and those funds were range through janet the g dinners. so iran fund has been reading funding $990.00 when he started off and making against the name of us. so you know what, my hon is saying that in 2020 a. but i was with the function and a transparent company. and the cases on it only made in 2019. so it is impossible for anyone look into the future. this is, this is what iran bishop just came on. and by the way, we'll talk about it. so can you read a point in your book?

not that it is pretty much acting do a by effect to differ because no, i should leave a message and, and good of his children. but in ron hahn here did not even human infidelity just gave me the best of my knowledge and in language with my account statement, i think that these funds have been given by other sources are, are okay. and you know, most of the findings were given in that, you know, 50 dollars 70 dollars. so if you look at the list, you will even as an outside observer, you will, you will laugh ok. i appreciate the call for cation with the former prime minister, except that despite all the allegation sides, he is one of the most popular politicians in pakistan. i'm not sure the countries ever seen so many people come out on to the streets in recent months in support of

him run at can. is that still there because you know it historically it kind of, it dries off after a little while, but is the, is the public support there for him to make another run on? could he yet be prime minister? i just about 10 minutes back. he is announced to contest 9 on 9 seats in the vitals. the popularity is swelling. by the minute you see dozens of you know, many people out outside on the door every day. whenever he makes a coin or whenever he gives the good people come out. this one, and you know, i had the streets in every city of the country and that would fade. so the popularity is increasing. and it, this is the last roll, the dice that the operation has. and if this is the operating would

typically have nothing against him because every other thing that the operation have done, implant 9 has, has, you know, going to say, how deep are the tie is currently between islam about in washington. there were purported to have improved after m, ron con. laughter was pushed from office. is that really the case or is that, is it a f? a say that on the front they want to appear to be strong and have all these different ties and all these different issues or is there an underlying tension between the nations? no bach, you wish relations are missing. a very low fee than that no page is not necessarily because of the tensions. it just it just got a lot to do with the structure of the region and nobody wanted to. 3 we are maintaining a low profile because right now the american to north need as they do in the bar,

in relation to a one is done. so i to solutions to a very, a related. so there is, there is no, i sorry to interrupt, but everyone can claim that the new government as a us puppet, is that fair? and then one good. i'm, you know, the nature of conversation that iran and enveloped over the bottom whole months. the idea here is that if the government, obviously, the state of pakistan is not a part of the us, but the government would not go the extra mile, perhaps too big. and then the book comes to shop. so if you were to contextualize this entire debate in this, in this scenario, i would, i would say that with him, ron,

in follow us would not have whatever, whatever day, with the person who would be form in drawing red lines. marcus, on and off pakistan. the problem with this government in that one, it lacks a big mandate who it is on. it is uncertain what it wants to do is giving many a make signal to the public as well as, as well as foreign actors. good. this is image many a problem right now, and this is why the demand is to board election as soon as possible, because instability is causing kiosk, which is, which is in turn, the leading to words and economic down. and i think the nominal done, it is not good news, but the people of box. ok. yeah. so very interesting,

a few weeks ahead. i'm taking from that side alley z, jeff free security analyst on that regional expert. thank you very much. thank you very much. now it appears not only fashionable, but advisable, right now in the west, just to cancel russia, russians or russian art. but such a narrative is not next to our documentary team. looks out a history of russia phobia and just wanted to chief ah, ah, her decades washington adhered to what has been called the one china policy. and that included taiwan for better or worse is kept the peace in the region. house speaker nancy pelosi strip the taiwan puts this into question is the by the administration,
