and as i saw him fall, i realized that this probably wasn't a joke to the interior ministry said be attacked, was likely politically motivated and brought his love of this. the voc in president condemned the shooting struggle. now i am shocked. we are all shocked by the terrible and vicious attack on prime minister robert beat. so keep a physical attack on the prime minister is 1st of all an attack on a person, but it is also an attack on democracy. ok, cool. but cannot see the, the heat for rhetoric we see and society, you know, obviously lead stateful action placement solutions to so please stop it. but you cannot explain to them mostly about the customer support port in from european leaders. you commission president worth of the fund a lion wrote on the social media site x such acts of violence have no place in our

society and undermined democracy are most precious common good of the white house reacted as well. president joe biden said in the tweed, we condemn this horrific act of violence. our embassy is in close touch with the government as a vakio and ready to assist robert feats. so as long been a controversial figure in slovakia as politics often described as populist or left wing nationalist e as opposed immigration and threatened to withdraw support for ukraine in its defense against russia. the victoria below is a reporter for the slovakian tv news channel. our tv, yes, she gave me an update on prime minister feed, so it is condition. so what do we know now that the condition of them is different? so should be symbolized by now if you chose authoration and as well that. so what do we know from our end, the man to minister domestic data, but he also said that mr. pizza is no longer in danger. so apparently he goes wonderful let and here's the one in uh, in the other. and the other one had

a joint condition uh was critical or his operation had to be going on uh for 3 and half hours. so its been really a life threatening earlier. i already said the seat, so was in life threatening conditions, but now it should be stopped last. alright, slovak is interior minister says it's and it's an assassination attempt. and so what do we know about that search? uh, 1st of all, we have to say that the probably the attacker was no part of any terrorist organization. he wasn't alone or in this way. they will. so we do a release the couple of hours ago where the attackers said that if you disagree with the government, well this is this, the video was made a couple of weeks ago. this all is the result of the slack here i've been very polarized. since basically september when we had to find them in 3 elections here,

even before a during the campaign basically there are the 2 groups of people liberal and nationalists, whether it be attacked who was mentally healthy or not. they will be released by that investigation. interior minister and also the minister of defense where part of the risk conference, as you said, they tried to calm down the emotions because there was another press conference before health in the building on parliament. and many coalition leaders literally emotional. and they pointed to the authorization of the liberal media that basically made targets out of them. so it's a lot of times and it's very he done by the society rubber feet. so is seen as a polarizing politician. tell us, why is he being so controversial? yes, so as you said in the beginning, he is the list, he's the was a bar to the matter began on the left and has moved increasingly to the right.

basically now we can whole call him a nationalist. his position has been changing really for a long time. he has sometimes i untie you rhetoric um sometimes he is talking a lot about um not sending a reference a to ukraine anymore. he also has the anti eligibility to arrives original rates. so its very controversial. many label him even crushed him. he didn't denies that himself, but it's been very many, many topics. uh, he was very, she had very controversial uh, sayings on the recently also he had very sharp and in aggressive rhetoric at the words, you know, is there way of saying that the he was pointed to them like and telling them the rats are big. so it's a very, very of his part of the session for sure. that was victoria for over

a reporter for slip back into the news channel. our tv. yes. all right, moving on, rushes, president vladimir putin has arrived in beijing. he's due to hold talks with china is shooting, paying its opponents 1st foreign troops since he was re elected for another 6 year term in march. the 2 leaders have described their bilateral me at relations as a no limits partnership. and we're going to go to beijing in a moment, but 1st, this look at how russia china relations have changed. in recent years of last month's chinese presidency. jim ping made russia his 1st overseas trip up to securing a 3rd time as leader moscow. a symbolic choice of to use depends on the camera isolation voting. now, just to recap to his face, the no gratian is russian president vladimir who's in is returning the on it, making badging the 1st for one trip of seats time. both countries are interested in

projecting unity in the face of what they say is a global or the dominated by the united states. that when russia's foreign minister such a live road was engaging last month, he hailed what must go and aging clear that no limits punish it is yours. not more than once. alida is president, putin and president changing, paying, like have stressed to the determination of russia and china to counter attempts to slow down the formation of a multi polar world to slow down the long overdue processes of democratization and justice. which is that's the is pretty good linguist, as they celebrate 75 years of different logic ties. china is very much the senior partner. the 2 sides of deacons military exchanges seems piercing, launched his invasion of ukraine more than 2 years ago. and even more importantly, for most go trade tides between the 2 balloons, providing russia in economic lifeline and mid sweeping international functions totally customize the response west committee does have when she attends,

providing must go with support sports invasion. you may get a, some have even, ah, she to ring in boots that we called on china to use all its influence on russia to end russia's wall of aggression against ukraine. but china is lead just as long as he brushed off the criticism and ignore the request. was fine really you? we oppose using the ukraine crisis, the cost, blame me, a 3rd country. and inside a new cold war, son don't ship the guy and sold a decision, king environment piercing sherry just staying through us global leadership with most go increasingly isolated diplomatically and this economy you launch the prop top by badging both know that no limits. partnership is no longer one between equals. all right, well let's now go to beijing, where during this 5, you and crash mart is standing by, 1st of all being great to see. so what does vladimir putin want to get out of this

state visit? and what about choosing pay? yeah, that's really the crucial question. and i mean we thought that both sides emphasize they are known to them. it's partnership. but actually if you look into the agenda of each site, then it's quite different. so putting definitely um once or needs the chinese economy to compensate to counter balance west and thanks, thanks. and so he has a key, a goal of, you know, getting a gas an oil deal. it's done also getting more access to the chinese financial markets. and so under ex, cheap for a seating thing for the chinese side, i think it's a little bit more delicate. he has to strike a balancing act. so at the one hand, yes, china, also a benefits lot to be from cheap energy supply from restaurant really discount prices and also china, you know, appreciates the political friendship. i mean it to count to the western world order . but on the other hand, a seating thing does not want to, you know, risk getting alienated any further from the west,

especially towards europe. so i think there are some issues where he feels uncomfortable in one, for example, is that uh, pull team continuously um used um, you know, bubbly and nuclear threats. i think that is something that a seating thing has a has really condemned to also in a public way. so i think there's also some critical issues here. so from the chinese side, i think they have to be a little bit more cautious to uh, yeah. how, how loyal they want to present themselves to with russia. so i'll be on western leaders have called on china to use inside its influence on russia to end the war in ukraine and watched by james position. so a badging claims that is neutral in this conflict is not a potty end as well. and um, uh, also claim for pete repeatedly that it does not send any weapons. and actually that no major power has actually accused a badging of directly sending weapons. but the issue is that, you know,

if you look at the customs data of what a china x you deliver as to what the rest of the, in the us a lot of good use products. so i'm good that could be used in a simple way, but also in a military way. um, we talk about the pots for drones, um, micro seconds or is it cetera also a lot of machine to it. so i think for that as china has received a lot of criticism by the you, but also by japan and the u. s. and a china has brushed off of those accusations and basically says that we are a peace loving nation. so we want to also help negotiate a piece, but us very much, so under the terms that also russia once. so for example, regarding the pilot plan, a peace conference in switzerland. china has not officially endorsed it and has not, you know, set or confirmed by that they will send a high ranking delegation to that. but it has rather said that russia needs to be on the table too. and i actually have been letting me a full team came to page and he gave an interview to say what to the state use

agency of china and set the t endorses at china piece plants. so i think they are very much aligned on that issue. fabi and briefly if you code how dependent has russia become on china in recent years? so yeah, the right size, the a to do a putting it in this relationship and if you look at the trait, then it's booming. but i mean, china is a very diverse trade relationships with all over the world. and for russia, i think it's uh, really the chinese economy, that is the lifeline for russia. and i think, you know, between 30 and 40 percent of it's a 4 inch rate and outcomes. it's directly linked with china. so russia very much needs the chinese economy most. so then vice versa. thanks. i've been always interesting talking to 5 you and crush martin badging. alright, here's a brief look at some more stories making headlines around the world. israel's defense

minister us glance has criticized prime minister benjamin netanyahu strategy and gaza. kalonde said he would oppose any plan for long term military rule of the region. he also urged nothing yahoo to throw up a postwar vision in israel's best interest. far right, judge politician heard filters says he has reached a preliminary deal with 3 other writing party leaders to form a cabinet despite coming 1st a national election 6 months ago. builders is not expected to become prime minister, but his party for freedom will be the main force in the coalition as well. before we go, let me remind you of our top story, this out the vacuum as prime minister rubber feed. so i is reportedly in a stable condition after undergoing surgery for gunshot wounds. pizza was shot multiple times in an assassination attempt. after leaving a government meeting and don't forget that there is
