to support farms and destroy sides. what is the legacy of this wide spread races, depression, today? history. we need to talk about here, the stories, shadows of german colonialism, the the prime minister of japan and address to join the session of the west congress today with an appeal to america, not to turn its back on world affairs. only okey sheet toll the us. it's leadership role was indispensable in the world full of challenges. mr. kasheila singled out china as it's biggest, and the pledge that japan would be a partner in meeting that challenge so that the us will no longer have to play the role of sold protector of the international space. daughter. i'm so gaily and bell in and this is the day i the

china is current, keeps tom o stands and beauty, 30 taxes present. i'm press the dentist and the greatest strategic challenge, the us japan relationship to not talking to damage of the country's interest. the leadership of the united states, it is in this and civil on china is resolutely opposed to coldwell mentality, unblocked politics, the world, the united states to continue reading this, people told, wrote immediate prayers of vision. also coming up, he went from an nfl style and the movie stuff to the style of a mode of trial that gripped to america. o. j. simpson has died. age 76,

a mild is good. i mean, obviously i'm dealing with some issues, but i think i'm just the bottle wrist and i'll be back on the golf course. hopefully in a couple of weeks. welcome to the day when we are cuz she has warned us lawmakers of the threat from china and dressing both houses of congress. the japanese prime minister said beijing's actions in the region presented an unprecedented security challenge. i was wanting comes a day off that he and us president joe biden agreeing to increase military corporation in the in the pacific region. yeah. and these premier also brought words of reassurance failing to low make has to set aside what he call that self doubts about american leadership in the world. the world leads the united states was his message, but america also needs its allies. mister kasheila said japan, still able and willing to share the burden of containing china. the china is

current external stance and military actions present. i'm press the dentist and the greatest strategic challenge, not only to the peace and security of japan, but to the peace and stability of international community a loss. while such a challenge from china continues o a commitment to upholding a free and open international order based on the route of bizarre as well as piece will continue to be the 5 year agenda going fall po i want to address it goes americans. effort to loneliness and exhaustion of being the country that says upheld the international author

almost single handedly. i understand it is a heavy burden to carry such hopes on your shoulders. although the world lives to you, your leadership in the us should not be as expected to do it. oh, i'm a, is that and on your own oh god, eczema isn't i jumped the fellow at the hudson institute where he writes and comments on us national defense. he's also being a counter terrorism policy advisor in the us defense department and the special operations officer in the us marine cool. that's a life well lived. uh well that a welcome to the w. and today i've tried to provide and, and mr. kachimba to announce plans for a close and easy military co operation. what do you think that's likely to look

like? well, i think there's a lot of areas for growth and us just japan alliance. and japan has a lot of room to grow their military, their, their self defense forces, and take a larger role in that, in that region of the world they are, are, and appeared to be, or as to ally, encounter in china as chinese merits. time militia seems to go around it and move it into a territory waters of other nations in that area. japan stands ready and as of 5 minutes or so today they are standing ready to engage us. we just back them and then asked what, and i think we should write and climate. i try to clean these things. these close the ties as a threat, just explain to us why. well, china, it's in china's interest. so they said, you know, we don't want to see this in the cold war mentality, but of course they don't because they've made it a lot of games over the last several decades with everybody kind of standing on the

sidelines and watching. if there's a cold war mentality that returns to where the world with picks up and sees china and that's a threat, that opposes then they send a much risky your chance when they go after ty want, they want to increase their sphere of influence. and just like, like russia wants to in europe and it looks to the west to, to see how we're going to respond with each encroachment. i think the thing that we've learned in russia is the perfect example of this is that constant capitulation, regular appeasement of then, grabbing territory from those around them, even if it's a territorial waters, or fishing rates and in territory waters in maps. and the more the capitulate, the more for you encourage that aggressive behavior. for the us view china as a threats for years. why is it only now building out these lines? there's and why is japan own united? say yes, we're ready to do this as well. i think the threat has gotten much more great for the last 10 to 20 years. we're now are operating and what many folks call the

davidson, the window which, which is basically the timeline before trying to make some move on taiwan. we've realized with semi conductor production that taiwan is critical to the international market was also realized that international trade and freedom of navigation, freedom of a seas relies heavily on the ability for ships to trans and up and down uh, within that 1st island chain, which taiwan is the linchpin of right now that china is built up in the south, tennessee are on uninhibited. they moved it into other areas. they're looking to take this on a cockers there and cops and disputes with the nations around them. it's looking a lot more and several folks have written about this like the actions of germany in the, in the 19 twenties and the 1930 just moving into territories around. and unfortunately, at some point someone has to stand up and tell them no. okay, but it's no this for a no further or is it no and go back. i think it'd

be unrealistic to say go back. but a particular for the philippines. i think they're interested in the meeting today. was to say this far and no further. they've lost so much of their, their fishing waters, their coast guards regularly, the coast guard vessels and originally under attack from the maritime chinese maritime alicia. and they're saying stop, this is enough and go back, i think for japan. similarly, they would say this and no further, they don't want to to get into the conflict of the set of khaki in terms i want, of course would say no further. they don't want any uh, a chinese influence in taiwan. i'm going forward. so i think everyone would say, these are what you have if you're okay with that. and then the world should be a piece. china clearly does not, is not ok with what they have. they want much, much more, and we're standing in their way. okay, but it's not all peace and harmony though, is it between japan and the united states that all differences between these 2 partners talk to us about the they propose purchase of us steel by japan's logic

steel maker, which has been criticized not just by cause and by but also by president trump in the past. yes, this is a, this is a thorny issue. then domestic costs or politics in the united states as trade is around the world as it, with the rise of populism. i think there's a lot of still manufacturers in the united states who are weary about a deal or they, they're very cautious to get into deal with an international company or website company purchase american steel manufacturing. they've seen this happen before, and the eighty's working still manufacturing moved out of the united states. that's not to say that free trade is bad. it's not to say that that agreements on steel or are bad in nature, but you need to be very cautious. and i think japan is more than willing basically a benefit to tying their economy to ours that protects them in the event of more chinese aggression. but i think when you talk about workers in north northwest indiana, they want to be sure that their jobs are going to be maintained,

that they're not going to be shipped overseas to produce deals somewhere else. and that's the details of this to you that i think a lot of folks particularly need us senate have issues with they don't trust president biden, to have their best interest, interest of ohio in indiana and other states like it at the forefront. which brings us neatly to elections this year in the us. and so we have to show you this position at, at home, looking shaky. how g orval. do you think these at this initiative is likely to be a well trait is always going to cause problems in elections that cause? i think we saw that in taiwan last year, right. a feminist or prison inside made a deal that us poor can. and us beef that cost her her party and the elections going forward. so i think if we look at the current, the elections in south korea as well, you'd see that there's a chance that moving forward and moving to aggressively and foreign policy of

foreign policy issues and not giving enough attention to kinetic issues, can cost part of the room for a in elections. i think for the invite as much, i'd like him to be more aggressive on, on foreign policy. i think key risk system. more thing here in the states is to focus on foreign policy and not focus on the issues of his voters. then it might cost him at the, at the ballot box. com this november. good talking to you. thank you for walk us through. i've got an accident from the hudson institute. thank you. thank you. and have it done with a property taxes and has been sentenced to death in the country's biggest ever financial fraud case trunk. my line was one of $85.00 people on trial for investment 12 and a half $1000000000.00. the death sentence is seen as an usually severe alonzo ras, last year was part of an anti corruption drive that's in gulf. but the top levels of getting to these politics is look at this with chung, of who, who is

a professor of political science and director of the us vietnam research center of the university of oregon. welcome to dw professor 12 the hop $1000000000.00. sounds like an awful lot of money putting that in perspective for us. oh, oh, that's about 10 percent of it. lambs a n o g d p gross domestic products, meaning the total value off of it. and to me is like getting to me is what goes make a year and that's about the 10 percent off of that. i'm so and so how did a troll milan do this? oh wow, that's this is just a, you know, basic uh main fraud. and he was able to do that to do it because he was able to, um, bribe officials uh through uh,

political connections and see what just embezzling money from the bank to uh, to useful a real estate investment. as he was able to do that, like i said, you know, because of the hopefully connection, political protection by the pop officials, right? because people going to look at the same thing. how to use steel. 10 percent of a country's g d p a. nobody noticed, but your say she bribes people, but she must have bribed an awful lot of people for about to go. i have a note to store on challenge for, for, for how long the other case, the place around 2012. so it has to be going on for about 10 years. and i'm sure the officials knew about that. but that they would just, they, they just pretended to look the other way because her main patron used to be

a very powerful man. he was the plastic chief off the whole team in city and a member of the house for college bureau of the communist party. so he was one of the top 15 or sole lead most of the country. so he was so powerful and he was ruling votes him in cd like his own feet. and he was home in a paycheck for a long time and she had to, he's retired in 2015. and after his retirement, his associates began will begin to be persecuted by rival affections and all the elite, those. and he was also a 2nd from his position even though he already had 3 tied up. so uh, and then suddenly, you know, see a ride a several officials in the inspect those general ins including did that. but the, inspect the general of the whole banking system, a sheep right?

them, a get, gave him half a 1000000000 a half a $1000000.00. and to you guys, the chief inspector of the banking in the system in the south, perhaps around $5000000.00 in virus, all the officials. okay, so this corruption spread far and wide until the upper reaches of the base. this one poxy a system. so now we have this death penalty explained to us why she was given this death penalty, which is not only unusual, but it's so rare for a woman to be saying the times that a uh, it's within the frame of uh, an estimate for a premium. oh is like, uh like, uh, so its not quite uh, it's not i'm protected. uh, but it's, uh i, i believe it's going to be commuted. but the, they want to give her a very heavy sentence so that she was willing to give up the information

about all the assets. because they, they still want to recover the access many assets from her that they have not been able to. so that's, that's one of the reasons why they, they, they, and out of that sentence for her. but it's likely to be committed later. but this is not, i have to say that this is not the 1st time that, that sentences have been given out. but all of them, if i remember correctly have all been commuted in the past. so how, what she found out in the end to give them that she had vis such a wide spread uh network of corruption. oh, well wait, basically everyone who does these this in viet nam has to try to evade the last it a violate the law in, in some ways because the last uh, weight and the last at a man to serve the official us and not to says the reason this all the people for

the last i made to south the, the officials, the government. so when, when the government wants to use the law against you, they can use it. and so it's, it's very, it's almost impossible to do any business. indeed, man, without violating the law like damage. so he has violated the law and the officials knew that. but that as he was protected by top of the shows they could not reach her. they could not touch until her patron replied. and that's when they think they could build black, the rice of i should turn that into a film. it's fascinating. professor tongue moved from the university of oregon. thank you so much. oh, thank you very much. for the american football here at o. j. simpson, his died at the age of 76. his family says he passed away in las vegas. following a battle with cancer was a, was a legend and the nfl,

primarily with the buffalo bills of the pit. she started in numerous movies and tv series, most well known role was north, back in the naked gun films and in 1994 millions around the world watched. didn't lead police on, on low speed car chase through los angeles after he was accused of murdering his ex wife and to him now frank to happen. and then in 1995 h u. and into follow the trial in which he was comfortable. actually clear of the charges on the deck a laser. he was sentenced to 33 years in prison for an unrelated armed robbery for being released in october 2070 you can use a source to bring. let's get more for entertainment. janice k. j matthews, in los angeles. so welcome back to the day change i. how do you think our j is going to be with my bank? who i would say that o j is one of the most complicated figures to ever live in this world. his

legacy is really one of before and after the double murder acquittal of his ex wife and her friend. you had old jay who was a football star. he had 11 seasons in the nfl. yeah. excellent. acting career and a lot of popular films like naked gun. he was his both person for a car rental company. he was really beloved. he was at all american hero until he was accused charge and then later acquitted of killing his is 2nd uh, ex wife and her friend. and that's when everything went down here. and unfortunately, or fortunately, any way you wanna look at it, uh, you will not have all jay's name mentioned, i believe ever without the word murder and without the word acquittal in the same sentence. unfortunately, or fortunately because there we go back to 95, but this was a case, but not only was shown on live television the case and the chase,

but also split america perhaps black against white in a, in a, in a crime. but everyone had an opinion about you know, it's really interesting during that time i'm in los angeles. later i went away to school in new york and i just graduated out of graduate school and i just got back . i have my 1st job. and i remember the day that they were going to release the verdict, they gave people like a 2 to 3 hour window to leave work early. that's how important it was like literally all of los angeles. they wanted to get off work early and get home before and the verdict was released. it was just, i've never seen anything like it. and then of course they have the slow speed chase, you know, a year or so before that. but yes, it ripped the country, i think it with the world, i believe at this chase,

as well as the verdict and the trial was watched all around the world. that was really before you had court tv and you had all the trials and the judges with all their shows. now, this was really the original reality tv show. uh the o j. simpson case and a gift for rolling tv news channels, which were only just getting started back. you know, i was just thinking earlier today, a car chase back in like 19 ninety's and you had an helicopter and it live on television. it was something that stopped all of los angeles. today. there are so many car chases in the lane every single week that nobody stops what they're doing . and if you tell somebody there's a car chase, they've been saying, you know, what do you want for lunch? it's just not that big of a thing. we have surpassed all of that in those decades because it was almost 30 years ago. but back then there were no car chases on television and specially not with someone like o j. simpson. people were remedy because they didn't know what was going to happen

. he had threatened suicide. they didn't know if he was going to go to the cemetery where his ex wife was when he gonna go back home to his home in brentwood. was he going to turn himself in? it was just so mind boggling to even think of something like that happening back there. and then of course the trial which gave a massive audience to oj, is lawyer, johnnie cochran. and of course that, that famous bloody got the glove, but oj struggles effect on these hands. if he doesn't fit, you must a quit, or that i'm telling you that same stage with johnny cochran. i mean, johnny cochran has been, been, he's passed away. now obviously back in 2005 of a brain tumor, but that slogan was forever linked with johnny copper and a lot of people felt that they was that uh o. j. simpson, struggling to fit that when he got up on his hands in front of the jurors in front of the world. that really, really helps think the prosecution's case. however,

there are a lot of people say it was split along racial lines and a lot of people weren't really convicting him as much so as they were conducting a digital system. and you know, so many, i think law schools and people even to this day still debate the case on the merit and the jurors and whether justice was served. it's just such a strain case, strange case that is a animal no anomaly for sure. and then he ended up behind boss for a completely separate armed robbery for all of his talent that he had. think it's how does diamonds is he go his best ration? his anger got the best of him. he claims that he saw some people still some memorabilia. that was his and all he was going to do was go into a hotel room and collect what was his. and of course, it was wrong. they claim they bought it later. he was charged with robbery, but a lot of people felt like this since since that he was given. i think it was more

than 30 years, was really too much for that particular crime. and that he was being really prosecuted or convicted, or really kind of given this long sentence because he was found not guilty of the murder of his ex wife and her friend years ago. so he was sentenced to i think, like 33 years. but he ended up serving 9 years before getting out ended up staying in vegas, which is where he passed away today. so if we double, that would be for them in service. uh tv. and so what, what stands out most for you? a negative done and him running for that hertz commercial. i'll be honest with you know, o. j. simpson really had a career that was getting viewable, i think for a lot of athlete before he had troubles there before. he was ever charged with a double murder. he really had a smooth transition out of the, in a get nfl world into the hollywood world. he was offered

a lot of parts. he even was kind of like a spokes person. you know, during a little bit of, of sports reporting. then he had the brand deals, he had a lot of things that a lot of athlete want to have after they retired from the nfl and people just really, really loved him. and so he really lost all of that. obviously when he was charged accused and then later acquitted of murdering his ex wife and her friend, everything just went downhill after that. but it is really just a, a marvelous case. i think if you look back yet, but yes, his legacy is, is one that is controversial to say the least well lovely talking to you as a kj entertainment, a journalist decades, a matthews. thank you. thank you. or not is the day followed by 3 months social media at speed w. use license headlights, always available on the d. w app for a d, w dot com. but i'm
