so worst here about a blower, man. sure. these, these a message that a lot of these boxes do, they look, i see what we saw at least. so it seems like, oh, however, it's kind of strange and suspicious. i mean to be that the, the creation of the former a, come on there to meet us at the moment is, does this appear to just be a political issue between potentially rival factions and a party? for example. we know that april morales is also a political arrival for the present right now. or is there also a role the economic crisis going on right now in bolivia, currency crisis, of course, prices rising. it seems like a strategy because and do the economy crises before we go stand by on man, in the typical night or who's us or the president was really know. so the beast said

money for an exorbitant budget. and that you was making motions until next month, as was, the government would not want to explain why it's going to this. each of roto came to power chest 2 years ago. he promised to make the country's texas then farrah by making the wealthiest pay more duty at his latest attempts to reform the tech system failed to convince the public and also some expense. following the protests, the host, every 2 messages on now being reconsidered. the president says he will start causing projects starting with his own office, as well as other government departments to south korea, japan and the united states are launching joint large scale military exercises in east asian waters. they're seeking to deepen ties in the face of an increasingly

a sort of china interest of north korea. but the drills have taken on an even greater sense of urgency after moscow and p on young signed a new strategic partnership database. east asia course bought a james charter reports this month. the coast guards of south korea, japan, and the united states in lock step, during drills in east asian waters. the 3 countries have recently held, mold joints exercises during close, the, in the face of been increasingly a set of china and unpredictable north korea. now the military times the set 15th and further this week, the nuclear power to us aircraft carriers, theodore roosevelt. dalton, south korea, heads of the freedom edge exercises, the 1st of multi domain drills between the 3 nations. that means exercises across different military units, like a c uh cyber space. uh the intent is to improve the interoperability between our navies. and the intent is to ensure that we are

ready to respond to any crisis or contingency should preparing for any crisis has been made more complex by the prussia and new career last week, inks and new strategic partnerships that including a mutual defense product. something concerns must go could supply some young with intelligence for its weapons programs. if to lead is kim german and it's not him. if you said, you know, he said in a position to us, i did say sure. light, sweet eating stories that we see. what is happening in asia and look over the blog is forming the ways it was that now you've always already moving to asia as if to a permanent place of residents. this of course creates a threat to all countries in the region including russia. definitely, we are obliged to respond to this and we'll see what both of us and it's of the series blame each other for stoking confrontation on one side,

testing the limits of alliances in asia. in these drills the us wants to ensure that itself and its partner already comes. i spoke with mark montgomery, a former rear admiral in the us navy, and asked him to put the correct exercises in perspective. but 1st, thanks for having me and you're right. these are unusual drills because they're try lateral exercises between united states, japan and the republic of korea. i won't say they're unique in the sense that they haven't happened before about every 10 years. the countries are able to come in the politics of the countries, particularly japan and korea come together so they can do these kind of exercises with united states. saw that opportunity again, has worked very hard over the last 3 years with, you know, scores of try lateral meetings in order to set up these kind of complex exercises that demonstrate the interoperability and improve interoperability between our, the navy's of the, of korea, japan and united states, we know that these 3 nations,

the us, south korea and japan are really seeking a new level of cooperation following last summer's camp david's summit. how ambitious are their efforts and how far to the extent? i think this is a good exercise. it has undersea warfare, which is some range countries sometimes don't like to demonstrate their capabilities to each other. so the fact that the 3 countries are doing that is significant and as artifacts exercises, which have happened for years because of the ballistic missile threat of, of north korea, which impacts south korea, japan, and united states. we actually have done those exercises quietly over the last decade, was that they actually certainly in warfare, the maritime or anti ship warfare, the excise that are going in are significant. and they've demonstrated capability that should serve to tour the north springs from taking any inappropriate actions. you said some of these exercises have been done quietly in the past. we know that there's a newly assigned partnership between north korea and russia, for example, are some of the quiet parts now becoming louder as these hours trying flex

deterrence muscle. but that's exactly, i think we're trying to show that we're an actual alliance, you know, between partners, i think what north korea and russia have as a transactional y, as in other words, russell was generally ignoring north korea. so they needed the, uh, the large artillery shells for which must create a sent over to 1000000 shells to the russians, to fight against ukraine with, and ballistic missile parts, and ballistic missiles that they've used to fire into ukraine. so russia certainly needed a north korea trans, actually and, and as a result, there now passing some technology to the north koreans. that technology in turn, causes the united states japan and create a want to work closer together. it's combat any new sites with the north koreans. mark montgomery, there was a foundation for defense of democracies over the sports now with the group phase of the european football championships is complete. in group f, turkey took on the check republic and scored a late goal to win the match and secure their passage through to the last 16. that

result means that checks are going home, however, and the other match the group georgia provided the biggest surprise of the day, scoring twice to secure their spot in and knock out round portugal advance despite their loss. earlier in the final games of group east will walk in. romania fought out a one all drawl. that means that romania finished top of the group in progress. and the point was enough for slovakia to also make the knockout stage. another drawl and the other day in between belgium and ukraine method, the red devils advance the last 16 and it was heart break for the ukrainians who despite finishing equal on points with all other teams and group e are eliminated through goal difference. well, from historic moment, the last minute goals. here's a look at some of the tournament highlights. so far. fans from each nation had been present since the start to cease and historic moment. absolutely amazing. is the ever seen before for 2 goals, chris yano. rinaldo has appeared any record?

the 1st time in the history they finished top of their group posts, germany, hubbard, code julia novelist, got the dream start, they need considering lackluster performances. it passed major tournaments. germany's 51 opening victory over scotland has supercharged van support. and nicholas woke foods last gas equalizer against switzerland in their final group stage, match to germany, group leaders, germany faces, denmark and the knockout stage with the host nation's fan base thursday and for ultimate success in the tournament. with germany firmly in the grips of football, fever saxophone player under ation or has been helping fans along the way. he's been playing for crowds of fans ahead of each of jeremy's group stage game so far. just little taste of his last jam before germany's one. all tie, again, switzerland, the
