Ah, today there is a beat on the legacy at beacon of hope. Ah, and we are proud to be instrumental part of this initiative to solve the global food crisis, legal issue. You have overcome obstacles and put aside the differences newer. This environmental, which way the developments in the field take. The war will eventually end at the negotiating table, and as i left that guy and the way towards using humans, softening and securing peace. And also coming out, the january Face Committee lays out more damning evidence on Donald Trumps inaction during the u. S. Capital ryan, their conclusion, he didnt fail to stop the violence. He chose not to stop it, but will the investigation lead to concrete charges against the former president . Donald trump made a purposeful choice to violate his oath of office, to ignore the ongoing violence against Law Enforcement to threaten our constitutional order. Ah, to our viewers around the world, its good to have you with us. Its the breakthrough. The world has been waiting for over 20000000 tons of grain had been feared to go to waste ukrainian ports in silos, posing an unprecedented threat to global Food Security. Tonight, after months of russian blockades, a deal is in place to resume great shipments through the black sea representatives from both sides attend, that the sun is their money. And if stumble along with turkish president , ridge of type are due on, and us secretary general and tony a good terrorist thats helped that reopening the ports and allowing grain to leave ukraine will help ease global food prices, which have spiked in recent months. Quoterush hailed the deal as one of the most important accomplishments of his career and let there be no doubt. These is an agreement for the wolves. It will bring relief for developing countries on the edge of bankruptcy and the most Vulnerable People on the edge of famine and tulips fabulous global food prices, which would already have record levels even before the war at nightmare for developing countries. Specifically, the initiative we just signed opens up best for significant volumes of commercial food export from city key ukrainian port in the black sea or chevron or 6 and used me the shipment, the grain and food stocks in the World Markets will help bridge the global food supply, get and reduce pressure on i prices to w, harness and covering the signing of this landmark deal, where it happened in assemble and she has more on the details in the agreement. We do know that the plan provides for ukrainian vessels twist caught off guard cargo ships through mind to war to so the waters will not be specifically de mind. At wire the black sea out of Ukrainian Territorial waters to woods turkey. Both sides have made promises that they would not attack these ships. Um, now there is also going to be a coordination sent it to be set up here in istanbul at this. Strategically very important lexi location is staffed by representatives of russia, ukraine, and turkey to oversee the brian exports and also to conduct inspections of these ships that with a specific russian demand, that old ships cargo ships traveling to ukraine or coming back would be inspected to make sure, there are no weapons a military equipment on board, but ukraine said they wanted that to take place in turkish water. So were assuming right now thats exactly how its gonna look like. Well, the export deal is welcome news for many countries in africa who heavily depend on ukrainian grain, but it wasnt all cheers. South africa president s are a rama. Posada said the agreement had taken far too long and the entire continent needed to reassess its options. I will continue with reliance on massive amounts of grades from that theater of the world or that culture of the world should receive a service and a real danger to african countries. 1. 3000000 people. We therefore need to use this conflict as a wakeup call and kate on welsh, as the director of the Global Food Security Program at the center for strategic and international studies. A think tank based in washington d. C. I asked her for her reaction to the news of this deal. Certainly, i think that this is very positive news coming out of turkey today is the very important 1st and foremost for the export of greens that were stuck in ukraine from last years harvest, which is between 16 and 20000000 metric tons of grains. Which we expect to be able to be exported over the next 3 or 4 months, which will be able to address the important needs of, of net food importing countries in the, in the region. And there was a lot of back and forth in the lead up to this. What do you think made the agreement possible now . And thats a great question. Probably a combination of factors. I think that that number one, rising awareness of the implications of restrictions on exports from the black sea implications being increased Food Insecurity around the world. And particularly in countries that rely on imports from the black sea being countries in asia, north africa, middle east, and across east africa and the rest of africa. I think awareness of the implications for Food Security there and, and a good 1st and foremost, thats the reason. There are already reports. Now our is after this deal was signed of wheat. Price is falling as a result of the agreement. This tendency holds is the food emergency averted for now. I expect prices to continue to follow up. Global food prices did spike in february of this year. And then again in march of this year, we reach to historic highs. After that, food prices started to level off and theyve been, theyve been falling incrementally since then. At the same time, global serial prices remain about 50 percent higher than where they were about this time last year. So its your prices are still incredibly elevated despite the fact that despite the fact that overall prices are starting to level of a level off, i do expect that cyril prices will start to, to fall even more as a result of this deal. I do note though that this deal has a time frame of 180. 00 days, and i think that the extent to which prices will likely fall depends on whether or not this deal is extended beyond these initial 10120 days. Where is ukrainian grain most urgently needed . The countries that rely on ukraine a and, and on russia, on the black sea for their imports are countries that are generally in the geographic vicinity. So those are countries, again, in asia, middle east, north africa, and across africa. Countries that are heavily relied on imports and consumer a large amount of wheat m. R countries that are most in need of ukraines grain, particularly the horn of africa right now that has experienced a repeated droughts and where Food Insecurity levels are extremely high on their high levels of acute Food Insecurity. And many people in the brink of famine, also in other countries such as yemen relies incredibly or is very rely on the black sea for their import. So country like yemen, as well as countries like this, might expect us to, to experience some relief because of this deal. Do you trust russia to stick to their commitments under the deal . I think that time will tell we have seen russia make certain commitments through the length of this war thus far. I think a difference could be that this is a, a deal. It was a brokered by multiple parties that had signed today by russia and ukraine. Of course, with the you and in turkey, also being being part of these negotiations. I think that the, the very specific nature of stipulations under this agreement, i give hope that russia might follow through a more more so than we saw with other commitments. Its made through the length of the war. All right, there is cause for hope says Caitlin Welsh of the center for strategic and international studies. Thank you so much. Thank you for having me. Ah, this is not as it may appear. A story of inaction in a time of crisis. He thought for 187 minutes on january 6, this man of unbridled destructive energy could not be moved from the comfort of his dining room. He watched on t v. As the attack escalated her, his refusal to act and call off the mob that day and his refusal to condemn the violence was indefensible. And on january 6, donald trump turned their love of country into a weapon against our capital and our constitution. My only goal was to ensure the integrity of the vote. There is plenty more where that came from last night. As the january 6 committee slammed donald trump at length for refusing to call rider storming the u. S. Capital last year. A series of white house officials described the over 3 hours. The president watched the insurrection on fox news and did nothing to stop it. While trump was also watching tv last night and not happy about what he saw, he lashed out at the committee, calling it a kangaroo court. The hearings have included a mix of life testimony, pre recorded depositions, and never before seen footage, including these outtakes. Thats what ive heard of donald trump rehearsing his video address to the nation a day after the attack on the capitol. But this election is now congress as certified the results. I dont want to say elections or register mercy. His daughter, yvonne could trump can be heard off camera coaching her father congress. Now congress to get her lawyers. The committee documented how the former president was not only aware of the attack on the capital. He watched the violence unfold on television in a small dining room off the oval office, rebuffing please by aids, politicians, and members of his own family to tell the mob to stand down. For 3 hours, you refused to call off the attack. Donald trump refused to take the urgent advice he received that there are from most political opponents or from the liberal media, but from his own family. His own friends, his own staff, and his own advisors in the midst of an attack. When there was no time for politics, the people closest the trunk, told him the truth. It was his supporters attack in the capital and he alone could get through to them kensington. One of only 2 republicans on the Committee Says instead, trump chose not to act violating his oath of office and placing lives in danger. O 5 people died as a result of the attack. Some 140 Police Officers were injured and to date more than 850 people have been arrested in connection with the riot. He came on the heels of his speech by trump, to supporters in which he falsely claimed the election had been stolen and that Vice President mike pence could overturn the results. During the hearings, one White House Security official described how secret Service Agents protecting pens that day called loved ones to say good bye. As the mob broken side with a large we on the style, several members of the Capitol Police force have been in the audience during the hearings, which will resume in september and at the white house on the morning. So more hearing set for september, but with all the evidence presented so far, how much legal trouble is donald trump, potentially in here is laurens tribe, a leading constitutional lawyer speaking to d, w earlier today, that he is cited in insurrection. He was guilty, it appears from all of the evidence of conspiring to overturn the election. He was defrauding the American People of a Fair Election and he was clearly obstructing congress. Those are very grave crimes. Some of them are punishable by 20 years in federal prison. And one of them inciting, and insurrection, then giving an aid to an insurrection, results in permanent disqualification from ever Holding Public office in the United States. And in related news, a Washington Court has found former trump advisor and strategist, steve been in guilty of contempt of congress. The jury only needed 3 hours to convict bannon for refusing to provide testimony or documents to the january 6th committee. As defense team insisted that the case was politically motivated, a prosecution and ban and showed disdain for the authority of congress, and needed to be held accountable and could face between 2 months and 2 years behind bars. I want to thank the jury for the what they offer. They did the job with the Court Administration here. And lets keep talking about this with clar cunningham. Hes a professor of law at Georgia State university, mr. Cunningham. Good to steve. We just heard the. Long list of potential crimes, and there could be more how, damming is the evidence presented by the committee . Well, i think the possibility of an indictment against former President Trump increase is pretty much every week goes far. Did you see anything in particular . And yesterdays hearing that would strengthen a case against him. Well i, i think that whats making the likelihood of a diving either by the federal department of justice or by the grand jury here in atlanta, georgia. Those are 2 parallel criminal investigations that are going on right now is in many ways for the january 6 committee has helped put together a more complete story of a scheme to overturn the result of the election that has lots of different pieces to it. I think that the department of justice started started with one piece of the puzzle which was the riot. On january 6, the georgia grand jury started with another piece of the puzzle, which was the phone call that the President Trump made to the top election official here at georgia, where he asked for at a just enough folks to carry georgia. But whats happening is both of those 2 investigations are sort of converging on something that i think they both have in common, which is what seems to be the most clearly criminal act, which is whats called a collector scheme where the meetings were held in 7 swing states organized by the Trump Campaign and trump, lawyers and allies to have people be and so a fake certificates as if they had actually been a lack of been chosen as the electors in those states, even though the votes have been certified and those fake certificates then became the predicate for the attempted to disrupt the election on january 6. And so it all kind of fits together. Yeah. Now with the interaction in particular, the Justice Department has been getting a lot of criticism, especially attorney general mary garland accused of sluggishness and the prosecution of the riot will get right back to you, mr. Cunningham. But lets 1st listen to some of what garland said earlier this week. This is most why ranging investigation and the most important investigation. The Justice Department has ever any luck. No person is a law. Nothing stop. So i dont mean to say that again. No person is above the longest country. I cant say any more than that clar cunningham is still with us. The attorney general, they are very tight lips, but clearly hinting at something bigger in the making. How justified is the criticism hes getting . I think its probably not well justified america. Ireland is appropriately being very circumspect in terms of talking about whats going on with the grand jury investigation at the federal level. But in fact, we know that they take in to really fairly bold steps of the department of justice got search warrants against President Trumps lawyer. John eastman, the f. B. I seized him as he was leaving an apartment in new mexico grabbed his fault and im sure theyre downloading and examining the files on that phone. And then they went after Jeffrey Clark at dawn, routed him out of his house in his pajamas and search the whole house and seized all his electronic devices. Those are pretty full loops. And it also, in order to get those search warrants that the federal government had to persuade a federal judge that there would be evidence of crime the probable cause that there would be evidence of crime discovered through them searches. So to be that suggests that the department of justice is moving more aggressively than it sometimes supposed. Lets get back to the committee because it did bring together lots of information, lots hours of testimony, many puzzle pieces, as you already said. But there is still something missing, right . Its still not all that easy to build a case against donald trump on what has been collected by the january 6 committee. Is that well, i think maybe it is on the it probably the most important possible charge. But i think the kit, the committee is getting there and is the federal crime called seditious conspiracy. And theyve already can convicted a number of the writers on january 6th, seditious conspiracy. Some of applied guilty. And that crime is, if 2 or more people conspire to a post, a 2 by fours, prevents hinder or delay the execution of any law the United States or by force to see, take, possess any property of the United States or that shall be imprisoned for not more than 20 years, what perfectly describes what happened on january 6th. That its a case of donald con, can find donald trump though, on that charge on that possible charge. Well, central john, california has already found that its likely that john eastman and donald trump together, conspired to obstruct the execution of the of the election law and the vote on january 6th. We already have a federal judge, and in fact its pretty obvious that that was the intent of a former president. Trump was to prevent the vote from being certified on january 6th. And it almost succeeded because there was for supply. So the january 6 committee, every time they present new evidence, theres more and more the ties for President Trump to into that conspiracy. Not to overthrow the government, but to prevent the vote either 1st of all, to put pressure on Vice President pants. And when that failed to then interrupt, and let me point out, they very came very close to succeeding because if the secret service had taken pants away from the capital as they plan to do that would h
