the the, this is dw news live from the outlet and the super tuesday primary voters has appeared to have locks in a rematch between donald trump and president jo by trump one primaries, and nearly all the states holding votes losing just one to his loan republican challenges nikki haley. she is now said to be calling it quits. also coming up on the program with china saber rattling could lead to action. this land behind us is the chinese city of charlotte with millions of residents, the y best. so in the distance over the, if the chinese coast guard on this line right here is controlled by taiwan, our corresponding visits, a taiwanese island where

a deadly confrontation and aging stem cell patrols of put local fishing crews on highlands. tesla is european assembly plant near berlin grinds to a halt because of a suspected off and attack on nearby power lines a left wing. millicent group says it was behind the incident. the manuscript is making in welcome to the program we saw it's in the united states, west super choose a if he is to have locks in a rematch in november's general election between donald trump and joe biden. biden has no real position in his democratic policy. and media reports now say that trump's only serious challenge us a republican nominee. the format you invested in nikki haley has decided to drop out the says in 16 states from alabama to alaska. i bet john's to choose the

preferred presidential nominee in their respective policies among republicans trump one old but one states now that gave him at least 995 convention delegates compared to hayley's 89. she did woodenville month, but it failed. it states where she had stood a chance of disrupting trump campaign super tuesday. this time did not come with big surprises. as donald trump submitted, his hold on the republican presidential nomination. said this is one of the finest run campaigns that anybody has ever seen. that's pretty good, right? as for the real estate and we have no choice because november 5th, right around the corner. november 5th is going to go down as the single most important day in the history of our country. donald trump lead technically means an

end to nicky hayley's campaign. hailey is one to primary so far, making her the 1st republican woman to do so. but it won't be enough to win. in a statement or spokesperson said, today in state after state, there remains a large block of republican primary voters who are expressing deep concerns about donald trump. that is not the unity or party needs for success. addressing those voters concerns will make the republican party and america better for the democratic nomination. president biden is the leading contender, and he has no substantial primary challenge. so the trump bite and re match in november looks quite likely. many american voters say they would have preferred new options this year, rather than a rematch from the last general elections. oh, i'm terribly frustrated with this country. i mean,

the fact that we have biden and trump to choose from. it's disgraceful. it's just disgraceful. we don't need to octogenarians in office running for office. there's plenty of other people who were earlier in their careers who could run and do a better job than those to me. a lot of my friends would be all voting um, like you, my girlfriend has and bother voting and cheese hasn't missed a single one. how come our best choices do a bite and he's a candidate, he hasn't done anything. you're gonna build up any of his promises. so no, i'm just, i'm just not happy with the the, the to binary choice isn't there, but with super tuesday behind all eyes will be on the election in november where americans will pick their 40 seven's president. and we can get more from the w. washington bureau chief in his pull, who joins me now from all on those super tuesday results. so in this, it was clearly a dillman, the nights for trump. and as we said earlier, we're getting these reports now. but nikki haley is set to drop out. so tell us

what this says about the republican policy of today. i as well as think it's actually a surprise, but it's a stay. it's nikki haley state and the advice for so long as donald trump already had a clearly before last night. however, and you have some results from super tuesday, there is no hope at all for hailey or for her cam to stop. donald trump from securing the republican party is not be nice and she has been unable, obviously to win over his support us and i think it is worth pausing here for a moment. the republican party of 2024 once a presidential candidate, was facing 191 criminal accounts, one who refuses to accept the outcome of the last presidential election. he played a major role in the january 6 attack on the capital. he threatens to leave made o,

as in car and scrubbing your poaching to do what ever he wants to nato members who don't pay the affairs shows. so this how donald trump this is how donald trump has changed the g o p. and this is what the votes would be for passwords. he was in case he becomes the next president. so looking ahead, i mean, and now we know that trump $114.00 out 15 states and the super tuesday contest looking ahead to, to attend to them. then the general election will trump is trump likely to be able to continue this level of success? oh, well, that's a good question. sure. he secured all of these wins funds. you know, that ford will be actually really interesting to hear. but mickey haley will say in an hour or so, i shall explain why she's expected to announce that she is suspending her presidential campaign as we just heard. she's also expected to call for

a return to the conservative principles and warned against an isolation is foreign policy that has taken hold with in the republican policy. but the big question of course is whether she really indorse trump or not. and according to sol, so she's not expected to do so and said, does matter for the trunk came kemp? because despite this dominant victories we were just talking about, he shows some weaknesses, especially in spring, a suburban areas, those which cost and the white house in 2020. and these are the areas from that you have you had her supporters and you had to remind coverage of a couple of primaries across the country over the last week. so i had the chance to talk to many to hear the supporters. and they told me a or many of them told me they would not vote for trump if she were to drop out. so her endorsement could be crucial for the former presidents to been this election.

so we shall see what she is doing. in one hour. we, we will be watching closely. absolutely. if we could just quickly speak about a joe biden, who oversee also had a strong showing. but again, was that any warning signs here? looking ahead to november's presidential election. the right president biden, who actually faced only nominal officers and for the democratic nomination. one a one all 15 states last night. but however, there are also indeed some warning signs for him. as there are many motors who cost protest votes against most of items because of his support of the is right alley, military response to the how much terrorist attack this campaign actually started in michigan last week and seems to be growing. as for example, of 20 percent of democrats in minnesota, awarded uncommitted,

so whoever wins these printed presidential elections will do so, but vice small margins, and therefore, every vote will matter in this. thank you so much for those insights. that's the w . washington bureau chief in his poor reporting that now as we've just been saying another assess of trump primary victories and without the likelihood of a 2nd, donald trump presidency is looming large, and that has made european lead is novice and vigilant. the possibility of a return to america 1st policy in washington, and even the lack of support for nato as forced officials on the continent to prepare for a future without the most powerful ally when he was previously president of the united states. donalds, trump describe the european union as a full and threatens to make you a p and pay for us protects. now his america 1st policy could once again,

we shape transatlantic relations. for many european politicians, the possibility of donald trump's return to the white house is a nightmare scenario. even though they don't like to speak about it in front of a camera, surely you're not inviting me to interfere and the internal affairs of the biggest ally, it's um the people in, in america who, who had the right to choose the president in private. however, one diplomats describe the upper sphere to us as a mixture of desperation and resignation. and it seems put to clear that behind close stores, officials in your opinion, capitals a working on contingency plans. should there be a 2nd donald trump presidency? i'm sure that there are contingency plans. i'm not going to wait until the last moment. the advantage that they have is some trump is not anymore. unlike what was the case in 2000. 162017. is not an unknown person

anymore of the present during his 1st term and office trump imposed terrorists on trade with you members, he pulled out of the paris climate agreements and in what was the biggest shock he repeatedly question, do you ask commitments to the nato alliance now he's delivering the same messages on the compatriots. one of the presidents of a big country stood up said, well sir, if we don't pay and were attacked by russia, will you protect us? i said, no, i would not protect you. in fact, i would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want. you gotta say, so could a 2nd, trump presidency mean the end of nato. it's not just about whether the united states is in or out. i mean, almost certainly the united states would stay in, but there are, there are levels of being in and the other allies on occasions have, have salt, lower levels of involvement with nato, withdrawing from the integrated military command, for example. or simply is simply focusing on areas

outside of the european security orbit, which would leave europe in a position of having to sort of somehow fill that gap. could you fill that gap? not into short term experts say, nate to without us. would it be weak? you ups, nuclear deterrence, without american nuclear weapons, inconceivable, at least for now and supporting ukraine without money and arms from washington would be much more difficult. so what can even leaders do? no matter what will happen in us? europe has to be able to do more on our own and in cooperation with our allies. this is a wake of code for, for everybody in europe to do more for, for european own defense, doing more for you a p and secuity could help, but it will take time for countries to be able to do that. and you are p and the union army 1st discussed decades ago is still a distant endeavor. and in the meantime,

if one looks at the experience of the trumpet ministration that we had. clearly he views the world, not just through nation states, but through individual leaderships, individual leaders. i can say not so much alliances, not so much agreements, sometimes not even states but, but individuals. and so those individual relationships matter. building relationships, stepping up on defense, europeans bracing foot from $2.00. and they know that a new face and a transatlantic relationship might be looming anyway, regardless of who will win the race to the white house or the national people's congress in china is being closely follows in taipei. tensions between china and taiwan have spikes and recent weeks due to an incident which took place in the waters surrounding jaden. man, that's a group of ty, with these controlled islands, just a few kilometers from the shows of china,

in this incident to tie one east coast called pursuit of a chinese fishing vessel, lead to the death of 2 chinese fishermen. china is coast guard, has increased patrols around 10 men, taiwanese official save. that is raising the risk of an accident spiraling into conflict of correspondent james chase, a reports now from jenman, taiwan. from the beaches of ty ones, doman items. chinese skyscrapers a well with the nice side to man typically will use to the content home can seem as long walks to narrow stretches of which is separating the 2 sides. but since 2 chinese fishermen died in a recent incident with tie one's coast guard, he's been much more crowded when heading out to see the table and do it. i don't know the full we used to go over there. so we can't anymore it because the chinese coast guard is patrolling an oven. we used to come across them quite often, and that wasn't the problem. because now we just do our best not to go that the abilities incidentally capsizing videos on chinese social media,

show the coast guard, pressing ahead with more patrols around seeing that sometimes even using the hakim language coming be spoken in taiwan typeface of several chinese vessels. events, it prohibited which is during those patrol badging, which claims solvency over taiwan. says such restrictions don't exist. it's not fundamental disagreements which is raised fees, a spot to could ignite. why the conflict? some of the right thing here. you appreciate just how small the margin for error is. this land behind us is the chinese city of charlotte with millions of residents, the why invest so in the distance over the if the chinese coast guard on this line right here is controlled by taiwan. now with china, sending mall coast guard patrols into these voices type pay faces a dilemma. do nothing, can they risk china replying, even more pressure, their react to strongly?

and that's the risk of escalation of this is common key political moments to both of aging in taipei, taiwan goes through new grades. it's new presidents, a man who badging openly dislikes and in china this week is the national people's congress. the, the country's leaders height, the defense budget by more than 70 percent, and to shoot tough words on what they call re unifying taiwan with china by military force. if necessary. jenman still wears this call is the value of conflict with china, which continue to show the group of islands well into the 1970s. local counselor don't send bile says that may explain residents muted response to more frequent chinese patrols. but he's quick to add, the fundamental tension still exists. now it just looks different. it's is something that you can type with well, can be more than just a horrible reason. it's not just about the rock, it's guns and arms. you cancel this, diplomatic was trade was cold, was wanting to head, so that kind of situation does exist to you. but it's just that every day people's

perception of water is still tied to things like kind of as well. so they aren't as deeply impacted by the recent events. escalation has been avoided for now, but with ships from both sides, continuing to walk insults close proximity here. it's like the, the fragile scale makes across, these voices will soon be tested again. i spoke to james chase and he has a follow that report for us. and he told me how taiwan and other asian countries are responding to china's increase spending on defense. well, as with all situations like this in taiwan, there is some was of a distance, of course people in gym and they used to these types of chinese transfer. you saw in my pull the just how close people all to the chinese mainland. and so, um, of course, as i mentioned also in the airport, there is some people engine, men who have lived experience of haul conflict on china was showing these group of islands in the 20th century. and so to some extent, it does, it is

a bit harder for these more recent tensions to come through. so people, but of course, the officials recognize that the situation is precarious. they, of course, want the situation to be cast for the managed. but from the perspective of everyday people, of course, they can't really go on living their lives in this perpetual sense of crisis and faith. and so when you were kind of approaching these stories about tensions rising between time when and showing that, those 2 realities are really what's going on in people's minds of in taiwan. change tray to reporting is a look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today and julia and of all, naya, the widow of the russian position, lead to alexei nev, only as cold on russians to join an election day. protest by voting against president vladimir susan. the volumes said she had drawn her from the huge crowds attend that last week for the funeral of her husband who died suddenly in a russian prison on february,

activists all i the dumbest e co terrorists own us, all the puppets of those who don't have good environmental goals. still paying production of electric vehicles rather than fossil fuel vehicles is extreme them. now translated, that means is a really dumb idea. the german government, meanwhile, hasn't strongly condemned the attack. the police ends near the desk left land just outside the german got the key berlin. a fire broke out at a high voltage electricity violent, which led to a power failure. authorities believe it was an act of sabotage. from the today, criminal police are investigating on suspicion of ours and some investigation old leads, and then i lost a far left 1000000 group has claimed responsibility in the message posted online. the power outage force test allowed to hold its production and evacuate workers

feeling just to see if it could be for us. this really is an attack on this industrial side here in find the book. and we have other 12000 employees who can't work at the moment. this incident comes of the electric car maker is facing protests against its expansion plans at the blonde environmental activists are occupying a nearby forest, putting up bins and building tree houses. as part of the stop dessler movement and the viper that's we've occupied this forest because tesla, which is building electric cars here and it's big a factory for us to also wants to buy unclear this area of forest oil and done off these and buys it wouldn't awesome, we've occupied the forest just of this that the environmental activists have issued the statement distancing themselves from the suspected arson attack. tesla says production board resume before next week, and it expects the losses to run to several 100000000 euros.

dw, as political correspondent that had sprung is out that has laplant nibbling. and they told me more about the group who carried out this attack. yeah, they call themselves the vault group, which is a reference to the mythological god of fire because of their attacks there. um yeah, attack. so i guess you have to call that. how always performed with fire, in this case, to the set fire, to a pile onto a and electricity cable exchange of the place where the cables were going underground towards this factory. a place that's about a 1000 kilometers on the sides of the century. somewhere in the, in the countryside in their statements. and they say that the, i see of that test that destroys the environment to the old. so on an anti capitalist group. so they are against these kinds of large factories. in general. there's also some sentiment against the loan musk involved and that talk about code

tests are caused with all the cameras being the surveillance instruments for the capitalist system. it's a very, very long statement ended refers to a whole lot of different issues and it's not very cogent to be argued, but to behind it, there is a militant group that has a tech several times, especially cables, network cables, electricity cables, for instance, invo. then for the underground system, they're all full railway systems. so that has been heard off before. but then not a group that is active and every yeah, it's been a couple of years since the last attack, i think. okay. now that has been growing process, haven't there against plans to expand the test laplant. can you tell us more about that and how that might be linked as well? they were always protests against this long,

even when the plans to build it made public at the time, the discussion was a popular around the forest that had to be removed. the thousands of trees had to be solid for the sector to be built. and so the environmental, this one to push to tech that's for us as also there are issues of what i hear. this is not an area that is very well supplied with water. about the factory needs a lot of water, especially also apparently for the battery production that also takes place here. and now there are plans to expand the factory in the far as just on the road here. this purchase account has been set up because another 100 hector has a for us would have to be removed for the factory fees to be expanded. that is some sentiment apparently also the most people living in this area. they have been some polls against expanding the factory in favor of protecting the water supply. and the part was done. but these practices upset that that back and then this,

the violent attack on the electricity supply. and that they have had nothing to do with that. hands, thanks so much for that updates. that's dw use political correspondent tons from reporting from the tesla factory are now to watch as being tacit as another jointly pin also special intelligence. sora displaces tool, released by the company behind the groundbreaking chat, built chat g p t. they can create realistic looking videos based on a simple text prompt. but they're all concerns about what sora could unleash these puppies don't exist. the video is generated by an occupational intelligence algorithm. they may, sora, the new takes to video, generates it from open a i a year ago, the best, hey, i videos would like this rather confusing big commercial. now open a i says, or a couldn't create clips like this from a use of text prompt,

concerned about the dangers sore a could pose. it's not releasing the program until it has safe guards in place. you're up to date, thanks for watching. the
