from where already from the port. is ore could be sent further and naturally with the donbass, because donetsk has metallurgical enterprises that are already being restored. and i will remind them of ilyich e did not suffer as much as azov steel, and now a simple, very rich region, we do not need subsidies, we just need the opportunity to work and make money like we always did. let me remind you that for thirty years of humidity, the so -called central kiev authorities did nothing but suck out all the links due to the fact that the region was such a region, you know, arable land. yes, that is, either a stepdaughter, that is, and official kiev was like a stepmother in relation to us, including because of our russian cities, which we never hid vladimir rogov, a member of the main council of the military-civilian administration of the zaporozhye region was in touch with us. and let's, uh, now talk to the ambassador of the lugansk people's republic in russia, rodion miroshnik rodion valeryevich is in touch with us. and now

taylor: you are taking a live look at the port of los angeles. esident biden is set to make comments on the supply chain, inflationary concerns that continue to persist in this economy. i want to bring us some commentary from ed ludlow who is live at the port. what are we expecting to hear from the president on a huge cpi date? >> inflation is not coming down quick enough and the administration will act to bring it down. it was interesting because oil and what the u.s. can do the energy industry. the question is what is the president doing with the supply chain on the ground? i am being told that the labor secretary and transportation secretary are both very active having daily calls with the port of los angeles. backlogs here at the port, a lack of container space at a time when you get robust wealth, huge consumer demand helping to drive up prices. in the background, you have the longshoreman's union and the warehouse workers union in talks. if the talks are not successful, there will be further disruption at terminal island and that impacts the

when i entered the port he was still standing at the anchorage when i was already in the port, i can ce ring trafic that he left the anchorage and started moving towards the entrance to the port already at that moment i was communicating with the representatives of the maritime police i already explained to them why i came and they understood that after all i came for the soul of the soromovsky 48 e. in addition, a message was sent to the port in samsung and sent to ukraine that this was also very important eh regarding the mohogov 48 again well, that is, we already started to show our presence there more clearly and in this way, and then after probably 15 minutes, i think that when one of the employees of the maritime police went out for a while, then came in. i think it was for that to notify this vessel that now it is not possible to enter here yet and we have not given you permission yet and i see that everything is still the same 48 stopped again after about an hour, it again turned its nose to the north, that is, it was inserted into the initial position, so to speak. sametske 4

to call the second birthday of the berdyansk port the long-awaited dry cargo ship is already visiblerizon. the first cargo ship enters the waters of its main economic activity - this is the handling of ships and transshipment of cargo. a long preparatory period, painstaking work, today we really have a holiday on february 24, the former managers of the enterprise fled, like the military personnel of the independent, while leaving a whole ammunition depot, to receive the first ship and the engineering unit of the black sea fleet, in a few months they defused shells 23 m to the position. well, the arrival of the dry cargo ship is the revival of the historical trade traditions of russian shipping and economic ties that ukraine cut off 8 years ago, and the safety of passage along the entire route was ensured by the ships of the novorossiysk naval base of the black sea fleet, the functioning of the port was restored and today we can clearly see, here incoming the vessel in the port water area, which is now moored to the berth and in order to restore economic activity, will just load the f

yes, alexander, let's say that the port is really lucky. g, i had to try the marcinsk autonomous transport hub, which is super large, of course, a transport hub, and i understand what a central fuel distribution system is, that is, fuel wires or wires that run under the concrete and storage tanks. well marcel there at all so to speak, there are oil terminals. and here, though of course, berdyansk will be, as i understand it, huh? well, there must be some kind of storage, thank god that there was no spill. it's not like others, so to speak, there are heavy ones. so to speak, the fraction of combustible materials, respectively, fires do not pollute the water area, which happens even in the case of ordinary civil accidents, there are any disasters. this is how the proportion in a shirt can be expressed, when he was born and, accordingly, the people who work there in production were lucky, and the object can be returned to operation, but due to special costs. i really hope that very soon we will discuss in this program, just the complete return

adam: the nearest fire crew was based just a few hundred meters from the port. ergency at 5:54 p.m. adam: the crew included three men from the same family, charbel karam, his brother-in-law and his wife's cousin, who was just 22 years old. as the crew left, charbel karam called his wife at home. adam: the church bells rang at 6 p.m.just 22 years old. from his penthouse terrace, agoston nemeth was filming as the fire took hold. agoston nemeth: i saw directly that there is a building in flames. i left my phone outside to film it. adam: nearby, lina khalil and her husband imad spent most afternoons on their balcony overlooking the port. on this day, from the 11th flview of the growing fire.eir adam: at 6:04 p.m., lina filmed the arrival of the fire truck and the ambulance. the crews came in blind to a locked warehouse. adam: a paramedic on the ground with the brigade filmed the scene and captured the last footage of firefighter charbel karam. adam: what the firefighters did not know was that the warehouse held 2700 tons of ammonium nitrate. it had arrived in 2013 ab

from the port of los angeles this runs 20 minutes. as we used to say in the united states senate i hope you excuse the point of personal privilege but i think that saul must be related to one of my close friends. you think i am kidding. i have to tell you what, thank you sal. everybody, before i begin i want to say a few words very briefly about the january 6 hearing that was highlighted last night. the insurrection was one of the darkest chapters in our nations history. a brutal assault on our nations history. and we heard about it last night again. it is important that the american people understand what truly happened. and to understand that the same forces that led january 6 rain today. it is about our democracy itself. we have to protect our democracy, i know it sounds corny to say it. i have to admit to you, i never thought that it was going to be this straightforward a challenge before. the rule of law matters. we are seeing how the battle for the soul of america has been far from one. we can allow no one to place a dagger at th

last fall, ports around the world were congested because of the pandemic. we brought together port operators, shipping companies and labor to ease bottlenecks. as a result, over the holidays, 97% of all the packages were delivered on time and on shelves when you went christmas shopping. remember, we were not going to have anything on those shelves? you did it. [applause] delivery times were actually quicker. today there are 40% fewer containers are clogging the docs than there were last november. this may was the strongest month in the port of los angeles' history, the strongest month and -- in its history. [applause] because of what my friends in congress have done, we passed infrastructure bill and we are funding major new initiatives on the docks. dog real systems -- dock rail systems. port of long beach has moved goods more quickly. communications near the ports and communities can breathe cleaner air because they are using electric machines. they are not generating with gas and coal. we expand capacity of our ports thanks to the infrastructure law. this

the port of los angeles, along with the port of long beach, has made the bulk of container movement inf the united states from an import, export perspective. in june 2021, they did a -- 10 million units. in the context of inflation, container rates have come down. the bottlenecks we have been talking about, the way they manifest themselves is the bottlenecks impact the available supply of containers. when there are fewer containers, shippers have to scramble to find alternatives and pay higher prices. we are down 27% from a container price from its september. if there is an impasse between the longshoremen's and the warehouse union and the pma, that will disrupt the ability to containers move in and out of ports. that impacts supply and leaves goods around the world facing higher prices. lisa: what can the los angeles port to do unilaterally, and how much of this is a global issue? ed: they haven't answered that well. the port will tell you, we are going to speak to the ceo and executive director later, they are going through this modernization program where new technology, autumn is a

the land border of ukraine. of course, in peacetime , all of this went by train directly to ukrainian ports, but today all the seare fully loaded ships of this type, of course the corn can rot if it stays here, the ukrainian military is afraid of attacks on the ports and asks us not to show any places or people it is not that there is a high level of staff activity in the ports, only from time to time a truck takes part of the grain , the docks are not officially closed, they are simply dangerous to stay in, 10 ships were fired upon among the foreign-registered ships, a bangladeshi citizen died, he was a crew member on one of the ships. therefore, the ports are physically blocked , how can you enter the port if you can be fired upon, this is a big risk. several more ships have been sailing the ukrainian danube river since the invasion. this is how about 4 million were exported tons of grain for security reasons surveying the river ports of areni and izmail prohibited activity on them has increased significantly ships depart from salt not in romania sometimes directly to ukrainian ports and sometimes cargo is take

the neighboring port is up 25% during this lockdown. ey have really stepped up to pick up the slack. tom: let me ring you back to the dockworkers in los angeles. do you expect to get a deal by july 1. >> i don't. history has shown that these negotiations go beyond the expiration. they've been on the job six days a week. there is work for anyone who wants it. the union leadership and the employers association have stated to me as we broadcast in our press conferences they are going to continue to work as hard as they can at the table while everyone is moving cargo. we don't want any disruptions. tom: there has not been a strike since 1972. the pma temporarily shuttered the ports for a number of days. it cost the economy $1 billion today. you can understand the anxiety, whether it's an official strike or not. are we really at risk here that container rates shoot up because things get slowed down again. >> i do not see a strike on the horizon. both sides are eagerly working the table. these are seasoned professionals. they understand their

, but today all the sea ports of ukraine are eitherccupied or blocked by russia, dozens of cargo ships with crops have been stuck at sea since february, there are 28,000 tons of corn on the panamanian ship in this port alone, there are 8 more fully loaded ships of this type, ordinary corn can rot if it remains here, the ukrainian military is afraid of attacks on the ports and asks us not to show any places or people, not that there is a high level of personnel activity in the ports, only from time to time a truck takes a part grain , the desks are not officially closed, they are simply dangerous for stay, 10 ships were fired upon, including ships of foreign registration, a bangladeshi citizen died, he was a crew member on to one of the ships so the ports are physically blocked , how can you enter the port if you can be fired upon, it is a big risk several more ships have been sailing the ukrainian river danube since the invasion this is how about 4 million tons of grain were exported for security reasons surveying river ports early and

this day can safely be called the second birthday of the berdyansk port. y cargo ship is already visible on the horizon. the first cargo ship enters the water area, we resume our main economic activity. this is the processing of ships and transshipment of cargo. a long preparatory period, painstaking work, today we really have a holiday on february 24th. the former managers of the enterprise fled, as in the not yet fallow, at the same time they left a whole ammunition depot. in order to receive the first ship, the engineering unit of the black sea fleet neutralized shells 23 m to the position in a few months. the arrival of the dry cargo ship is a revival of the historical trade traditions of russian shipping and economic ties that ukraine cut off 8 years ago, and the safety of passage along the entire route was ensured by the ships of the boat of the novorossiysk naval base of the black sea fleet , the functioning of the port was restored and today we can clearly see from the incoming vessel in the port water area, which is now being sorted out to the bert

that's the whole vote, and really make a counter-blockade of the ports in the occupied territories. ll, for this, we have to unblock our ports and have a fleet that would have the opportunity. but we still well, as for me let's return to the topic of the black sea, we will talk fatally about zmiiny island in particular, and i will leave it. it seems as if we are not very well- deserved bypassing the issue of the sea of ​​azov p andriyovych can you please explain and what is actually happening in the sea of ​​azov now because our ports are also there, which are currently temporarily occupied and in principle, russian warships are also present in the sea of ​​azov. everything is absolutely clear. it was also blocked on february 24 for everyone, including russian merchant ships, but for russian merchant vessels - this is this the ban was uh, for a week, the estimate and they are walking as they were walking uh, there is a road of simple gold , and from such a heater to the kerch strait, which means some and further, yes, there to turkey , italy, spain, and so on. that means we are marit

welcome to the port of los angeles and san pedro bay. it is my great privilege as a rank and file member of the international longshore and warehouse union iowu to say a few words. it is made up of men and women from every race, religion, culture and background. the very fabric of america itself. our members are ordinary citizens who do extraordinary work. morning after morning, and night after night. in the past two years, members helped these world-class ports of los angeles and long beach repeatedly shatter cargo volume records. [applause] in 2021, despite unprecedented obstacles, over 20 million crossed the docks. a debt of gratitude is owed to our international, coast and local officers for implementing protocols that help keep our members safe. despite those extraordinary efforts, many brothers and sisters did fall ill. some, severely. some with lasting consequences. and too many paid the ultimate price. we will take a moment of silence in their honor, please. thank you. president franklin delano roosevelt, who sailed aboard the ver

the russian defense ministry reported that the port of mariupol and berdyansk are operating normally d are ready to ship grain. at the same time, ukraine does not cease to create additional obstacles to normalize the situation, throwing in anti-russian fakes, for example, allegedly stealing ukrainian grain from russia, they emphasize that they do not have facts that could confirm and are urged to focus on the main problem. provide the food needs of people around the world. in kiev, they do not agree to export products by russian ships and are ready to provide ankara with a discount for mediating the restoration of maritime trade, as well as the use of turkish ships a quarter of the cost of grain in may, ukraine exported only 43.5 thousand tons of wheat, which is almost 20 times less. than a year earlier, at the same time, according to the russian ministry of defense, the ukrainian military deliberately set fire to storage facilities in the port of mariupol in as a result, 50,000 tons of grain burned down. now for export, kiev primarily uses the sea ports of romania in constantia and s

yes, uh, the port of the sea of ​​azov. e. e, berdyansk mariupol is under our control.dy to provide. uh, no problem withdrawals, including the ukrainian branch of these ports, please, the third one can be exported, uh, grain from ukraine through the danube and through e romania the fourth is possible through hungary the fifth is possible through poland well, and, finally, the simplest. this is export through the territory. belarus so that there are problems with export. ukraine does not exist. all the information pumping in the coming famine plays only on one thing - to increase prices. but this already leads to real threats to food security. indeed, in reality, there is no shortage, constant talk about the fact that now there will be famine leads to the fact that many countries stop exporting grain, what is logical in these situations is a vivid example of the fact that india and prices are going up, that is, by the talk itself. the west provokes difficulties with products. e in countries where and money. as a matter of fact, there are few shouts about the need to urge

that turkey and russia agreed in advance to ensure the export of ukrainian grain by sea bark from the portthe same time the minister of foreign affairs of ukraine dmytro kuleba called on western partners not to believe certain assurances from the kremlin on his conviction that russia simply wants to take advantage of the unblocking of ukrainian ports to attack odesa, here we will talk about this and many other things with our guest , vice president of the kyiv school of economics and agricultural expert oleg nivdievsky, mr. olezh hello well let's find out the status quo first. what is the status of our grain in the ports , how much is left now ? already unblock the ports, how much grain is there, and how much can we export by land, so today the situation has not fundamentally changed, because there are problems with the infrastructure, well , with the capabilities of the infrastructure, in principle, not much was exported there at first from the moment of the invasion of russia into ukraine. in terms of numbers, for example, the largest amount of grain was exported in a month, usually in m

from the port of los angeles this lasts 25 minutes. pres. biden: as we used to say in the united states senate, a point of personal privilege. i think that sal must be let in closely to my friend from high school. you think i am kidding. thank you, sal. before i begin, i want to say a few words very briefly about the january 6 hearings that were highlighted last night. the insurrection on january 6 is one of the darkest chapters in our nation's history, a brutal assault on our nation's history, a brutal attack on law-enforcement, some losing their lives. it is important the american people understand what truly happened and to understand the same forces that led january 6 remain work today. it is about democracy itself. we have to protect our democracy. i know it sounds corny to say it. i never thought it was going to be this straightforward of a challenge before. the rule of law matters in democracy. we are seeing how the battle for the soul of america has been far from won. we can unite and defend this nation, democrat and republican, allow

landed in the port of nikolaev against a small group. threw almost all their forces to the nazis. ignoring losses. they threw flamethrowers , mortars, flamethrower fire set fire to our e, a five-story building in which the paratroopers fortified. it was destroyed by artillery almost to the ground, trying to dislodge our soldiers from positions against the marines, the germans, abandoned tanks, the last of the four armored vehicles, it was valentin e, kodalev, who was stopped a meter from the entrance. grabbed a grenade and rushed. here it was his immortal feat out of 67 people of the alshan landing, only six survived, judging by the declassified documents. they destroyed more than 700 nazis and were able to hold their positions, and the dedication of the fighters of the alshan landing is also evidenced by the fact that this is almost the only operation in the entire history of the great patriotic war, the participants, which in full force were awarded gold medals . stars 67 people. they were awarded the title of hero of the soviet union,

well, i will not comment on the actions of the military and what is happening in the military port. t i will say what is in the public information and the russians probably also know it. removed from the armed forces of ukraine, and that is why those satellite or uav pictures do not reflect the real situation in the city, this corvette is indeed lying in the port, but now it is not part of the ukrainian armed forces, it does not have nothing to do with that, there are all the years of statements that they drowned him and so on, they have no meaning in peacetime, it was planned to use this harve as a museum in the city of mykolaiv regarding yuriy lakyrenko, well, let's say so, i won't comment on what and how, but for today day, this ship is part of the armed forces of ukraine and performs all its tasks in odesa. they plan to open a couple of city beaches or demine, well, of course, with the permission of the military administration, are you not planning something similar in ochakov? well, according to the law of ukraine on the military status, today this question is e- the military is

and sometimes they take cargo trucks and trains in the romanian ports ofats and ibraila then leave the sea again but the impact of our visit barge which was expected in braille and the grain did not appear, and you see pigeons are often late because they spend 6 to 8 hours at customs, for us 8 hours is too much because during this time we could load two or three barges, promise the eu should deal with the bureaucracy to speed up the procedure, so far they have not been very effective, i have not seen any concrete actions, we really want everything to be done correctly, but we need to draw up the papers and check the goods as soon as possible, but we have to speed up this procedure, the problem with the documentation is not the only one st. george stops at the port of solyna, we we waited 19 days to enter the river. tomorrow we are going to ukraine to load with grain. one of the reasons for the delay is the lack of pilots in the port, like viktor luka. we sometimes have to return home sleep change we can't work all the time especially at night simply becaus

the port of berdyansk resumed work today from gavan after several months, idle time left. ssiysk naval base of the black sea fleet will be responsible for the safety of the passage of ships for the first commercial dry cargo ship, by the way, farmers of the zaporizhzhya region have already begun to apply for the shipment of goods through the berdyansk port, and a major event for the region, report by margarita simok. this day can be safely called the second birthday of the berdyansk port, the long-awaited dry cargo ship, already visible on the horizon. the first cargo ship enters the water area. we are observing our main economic activity - this is the handling of ships and the transshipment of cargo. a long preparatory period, painstaking work, today we really have a holiday on february 24, the former leaders of the enterprise fled, like the military personnel of the square, while leaving a whole ammunition depot . the arrival of the bulk carrier is the renaissance the historical trade traditions of russian shipping and economic ties that ukraine cut off 8 years ago, and t

, they have almost renewed the railway track all the way to volnovasi and to the port, which means that very easy it is possible to import, for example, equipment or fuel, and sports are already by rail. the railway is also very closely guarded by the russian military. some russians work on the railways, even for us . that is, all the things that we said about the sport will be made into a military transport base from which one way in russia, there will be transshipment of scrap metal, rolled metal, that is, what grain is left, which will be, of course, the harvest, the harvest, all of it will be some kind of coal will go to russia, most likely it will be the system of syria because the curators from of the state duma, for example, the same sablin as part of a large delegation there, they all returned like that. well, i think that even without entering russian ports , they will go directly somewhere to the syrian parties , in the same way they do our grain, it becomes such an enclave, one day somewhere they collect everything stolen in ukraine. mr. petro, the last question is very short

, sunk the fairways of ports, well, something sunk some old ships, some objects prevent the possible passage of amphibious ships , and of course it is easy to sink, but to raise it is not so much, so to speak, so to speak, not so much, so to speak - the first is the world practice, in fact, during the second world war, when there is a convoy of commercial vessels from merchant ships in front of it, there are minesweepers on the sides , that is, on the traverses . in this way, the er-er danger er-er decreases, so er-er they exchanged everything ukraine officially notified er-er in january of this year and even in december of this year a separate message because against the background of these large-scale exercises we were replacing certain sections of the coast and about these are official, the same maritime ones about danger messages with coordinates, they are on the map. we even published this, and of course, after february 24 or starting from february 24, we replaced up to 200 percent, of course, all the passages, er, all the fords to their ports, and it is abs

well , the work of the port is actually blocked there, it is possible that work is taking place in otherconomy, in particular kyiv, let's say. if we talk about the capitals of ukraine for comparison, they expect that by the end of this year, kyiv will collect only 35% of the budget from what was expected, i.e. less than half, what are the expectations in odesa and what in general at the expense of what and how does the region live now in the light of revenues to the budget and, so to speak, of course, the provision of protected articles of the budget of the city of the region, please well, i do not know about the region, i know about the place now we still have a forecast of -2.5 billion uah and this is actually a very cool forecast how funny it sounds because our budget is 12 billion uah and i was afraid that it would be more but hmm most large employers continue to pay taxes to the budget e and i we also had overperformance in the first two months , that is, so far the situation is not that bad, but here you can't look linearly, that is, you can't say that here in may, well, there, for

now we are talking about 20% of the port capacity, we can reach 30%, therefore, in parallel , the stateing with international organizations such as the un and other international partners about the search for ways to unblock and also restore ukrainian exports of agricultural products through ukrainian ports, you can tell in more detail about these ways that are currently being discussed because i will receive different messages, for example, turkey plays a certain role in the issue of unblocking ukrainian ports, for that it was possible to export ukrainian grain and ukrainian agricultural products located there to those countries where did it settle before, which ways are more optimistic in the matter that they will be implemented in the near future, first of all, the most reliable way is to continue the development of others export routes other than ports and from the previous month such an initiative was launched together with the european commission solidarity routes where we are constantly working on improving the throughput opportunities through eastern europe what we are talking a

the port is the life blood of the economy. i look forward to the new waterfront here in san francisco and the port is crucial to the recovery of the san francisco economic recovery. i think our diverse portfolio, businesses, restaurants, retail, maritime, and tech industries. and with that being said, i am here to answer any questions. as i said, for 10 years, i kind of feel like being a part of the heart and soul of the port. i live down there. i'm invested. i want to continue to see san francisco be that beacon of light on the hill and i'll never forget the late ed lee who gave me an opportunity to serve and being the president of the iow, i have all the ports up and down the west coast right now. we are in major negotiations with the major shipping companies, and i know what my commitment is. and i'll continue to answer the bell. >> good luck on the negotiations. thank you for your willingness to serve. supervisor chab channel. >> thank you, chair peskin. i want to apologize, commissioner adams, that i didn't get a chance t

it can finally be loaded with grain in the romanian port of constant. so, cargo ships have been backing up more than usual here since the ukrainian port of odessa was blocked. the managing director of europe's fastest grain terminal says everything has to go faster, as you can see, 3 days after the war started. and the way i understood that the, it would be definitely a need. oh, we've us to some 4000000 euro altogether. so the, the project will be reviewed by the end of this month. all the terminals could work faster, but he says, 200000000 euros is required. above all the project need support from the e. u and the romanian government. but pass mismanagement and corruption have left their mark. for years the state railway has been storing its scrap on the access road to the port. only 4 out of 80 lines are in use. andre tells us the tracks are now slowly being cleared for grain shipments from romania and ukraine. this equality good is ition. everything is political then we want to show we can manage it, we're helping them. but if there were no war, they

the port of long beach moves goods more quickly, the port electrification so communications near the es can breathe cleaner air because they're using electric machines that are not generating using gas, coal, et cetera, and we are continuing to expand capacity of our ports thanks to the bipartisan infrastructure law look, this is a time we took a different approach also to trucking remember last december we brought together industry and labor to tackle problems facing truck drivers. it took the double -- we added double the number of commercial driver's license in order to speed things up. we did it. learning. the result, we have record-setting employment and trucking earlier this year and the wages went up even after accounting for inflation we will keep at it, with a new super chain envoy. general steve lyons. general lyons is a four-star general and he handled the transportation command and only tens and millions of things from little thi

doesn't mean we are oppos to it, it means we need these extra things. >> dan is the chair of the portoners. he opposed the 2026 interim benchmark for zero emission trucks but supported the overall 2030 goals. >> i understand industry can be nervous. there is uncertainty. we don't know what technologies will be available. we don't know economically what it will cost to implement the technology. but you have to start with a goal. as chairman of the port i would rather set the goal very aspirational he, that shows the people of the community that we care about their health. amna: for some in this area, the port strategy signals a larger shift in the politics around environmental justice. in 2020, nora became the first woman of color elected to the san diego county board of supervisors. born across the border in tijuana, she grew up in san diego's south bay, the area she represents. she has made health equity a priority. >> i say to folks, how is it possible your zip code determines whether you can have access to clean air? for the first time, we see a true change in this area. amna: she

the b.l.a. this is a mutual termination agreement between port and the fish company. the agreement would forgive approximately $861,000 in rent through june of this year, and the fish company forfeits its payment of $25,000. as we describe on page four of this report, this agreement is relatively more generous than the previous one approved by the board of supervisors in 2021 by approximately $338,000. according to the port, this is -- and as was just stated, the port has been interest in gaining control of this site more quickly than the site of the ferry building, and that sort of weighed on their decision, though we do consider the policy matter to be a matter for the board. >> chair ronen: thank you, nick. any questions or comments? i just want to say that it's a perfect day to consider this because this is a sad day for san francisco. this is a rough loss. a legacy business that's so iconic that's one of the sites of pride of being a san franciscan and being on the port. it's just -- it's heartbreaking to lose this institution, but, you know, thank you to the ali

that's not what the port is supposed to be used for. it's supposed to be used for transport of stuff. >> reporter: they will have to decide if there's enough port space without howard terminal to meet projected growth to 2050. fp the if the answer is yes, th stadium can go forward. the current operators say they are concerned about what will happen to the rest of the port. >> i think the vision feels if howard terminal were to become john john's dream then where does it stop. you keep moving down the water front. the port will dry up and we can't have that. he expects it to clear up in six to eight months. >>> let's get to meteorologist. >> we starpted off this morning with foggy conditions but it pulled its way back along our coast and now we're left with sunny skies and below average temperatures this afternoon. it's all thanks to low pressure pushing its way in from the north. this trough of low pressure will push its way in giving us partly cloudy skies as we head into forecast for this weekend. to add to that we're expecting a gradu

backlogs at the ports of l.a., seattle, georgia, new york, new jersey and other major hubs. b this is not just a problem for the coast. a backlog appears at the ports in los angeles that hurts farmers in minnesota, or wisconsin but hurts truckers and tech companies and manufacturers, mom-and-pop shops all over the country. and most of all hurts american consumers. our shipping reform bill will fix this. if i make it harder for ocean carriers to unreasonably refuse american goods at our ports. while strengthening the federal maritime commission's powers to stop abusive practices by foreign carriers. i want to thank speaker pelosi and my house colleagues who work to pass thisag t bill. and special thanks goes to senator klobuchar and thune for authoring the legislation as well as chairman cantwell who use orwh legislative skills, whh are indeed very, very fine. she shepherded the bill through this chamber. because of the hard work of these folks, shipping reform will now become law. american consumers will soon fill the benefit. i yield the floor and notice the absence of a quo

recently, the first bulker with ukrainian corn arrived in the west of europe to spain from these portsat is, the route has been worked out from the railway to poland is considering possible options for similar animals to be re-routed through the territory of germany through the territory of the baltic countries , this will partially solve the issue for ukraine and the world, but unfortunately, these are half-hearted measures that we have the topic of whether the world is really threatened by a food crisis, how urgent this issue is and who is more interested in its solution, and ukraine or the world that is threatened by a crisis. i think ukraine is part of the world and, er, all problems. they have two sides. for us, it is an export of this is a significant portion of our budget, in fact, which russia is destroying . the russian federation is destroying our economy in this way, trying to bring ukraine to its knees . yes, according to some mythical tank, no, the darnytskyi plant manufactures wagons and repairs wagons. in principle, everything is logical and understandable to the world.

happy lloyd is now trying to bring the export containers to the port at short notice. and while importers are being rewarded, when they pick up the containers faster, there's little effect was on the list. you haven't seen a real turn around yet. i expect it will continue this way in the coming weeks, probably all the way through summer dollars, honey to turns on motivational. ports across europe are now trying to increase space by demanding penalties. but at the same time, hamburg operator hopes businesses and shipping companies will take action. it will, might seal the flow of information, needs to be much better. so we know what has to be done with these containers in advance and in interior regions, regardless of the country space has to be created a production sites to have a buffer of one or 2 days soon, buff on couldn't. but solutions like these take time, and that's something ports don't have as traffic piles up. in his reminder of our top business story, leaders of the g 7 economies meeting in germany are discussing further sanctions against russia, including a

for years the state railway has been storing its scrap on the access road to the port. only 4 out of 80 lines are in use. andre tells us the tracks are now slowly being cleared for grain shipments from romania and ukraine. political issue and everything is political. we want to show we can manage it, we're helping. but if there were no war, they wouldn't clear the track with over one romania transport minister says it's a test for his country here. he doesn't want to wait for money. we must act quickly so we find the money on the nation budget. this investments are the, the spectrum of the war because we never invest in those lines. for 30 years on the ukrainian border, old rail connections were overgrown and falling apart. but in 2 months, the should be back in use. trucks alone can handle all the green shipments. but romania can now play a key role in helping ukraine export grain. a supply chain problems are bogging down businesses and economies around the world. and not just because of the war in ukraine, also because of the whiplash of nations pandemic recoveries. an

we have the first image taken from may 18 of the russian ventral whose journey began in the port located in russian occupied crimea, loading what seems to be tons of grain. then some days later we have this image of traffic, a global ship tracking provider, indicating that the ship which left the port towards the beirut and finally on may 27, the satellite image provided by planet indicates that the mattress dart in the port in syria. and here is the russian a pistol -- ship docked in syria. this information was confirmed by c crime with satellite images and also obtained by cnn, confirming that this russian federal is exporting stolen grain from occupied regions of ukraine. charles: has it been spotted more than once? catalina: this was not the first and only time the vessel has been spotted. there are more image of the same vessels spotted by this user who identifies themselves as an observer and ship spotted. he spotted it leaving and crossing the bosporus strait in turkey with a final destination in syria once again. here is the vessel crossing in turkey and back to the board. right

but the ports are mine by the ukrainians because they're few russian attack and blocked by the russians while out there with their black sea fleet. and that's the problem, the way out would be for both sides to agree to create a safe passage for them, which would meet ne demining by the ukrainians, or at least the mining some, a parts of it in front of the ports. and it would need the the russians to let the ships pass and no sight has enough confidence in the other side . the ukrainians fear that if they would d mind parts of these areas the russians would use might use this as a means of attack. and russia, of course, has also used these grain exports as leverage, economic leverage on ukraine. they asked talk, schedules about these, but it's very difficult task to resolve. and final thought from you are mathias of worrying reports coming out of the russian occupied mario ball. yeah, we have been hearing that sir. the senator is situation there is decreasing. it is a city where maybe up to 50000 people have been killed. that's the latest number given by the ukrainian or authorities up.

, sunk some old ships on the fairways of the ports. objects in order to prevent ge of amphibious ships and, of course, it is easy to sink, but to raise it is not very easy to say, so to speak, not very, so to speak in fact, during the second world war, when there is a convoy of commercial ships from merchant ships in front of it, there are minesweepers on the sides , that is, on the traverses. minesweepers are coming, they leave in a few hours . is decreasing, so uh, everyone exchanged ukraine officially notified uh, um, in january of this year, and even in december of this year, a separate message because against the background of these large-scale exercises, we mined certain sections of the coast, and there are official similar maritime a message about the danger with the coordinates, they are on the map. we even published this and of course after february 24 or starting from february 24 we replaced up to 200% of course all the passages er all the forts to their ports and they did it absolutely correctly as an element of the security system of the coastal defens
