12:01 pm
from the presidency, plus those of us on the lines moment of truth. the leader has made one last speech in strossberg, appealing to, you know, make us to give out a 2nd top estimation president. and to tell us where it starts as dawn in germany, it's so new, safety and country for the at us to uh, and it's having the same overlapping effect on the i'm british manager. welcome us, president joe biden has suffered another set back in his bid to hold onto the white house. the president was false to pull out of a campaign event of the testing positive for cove and 19. the details of his diagnosis were to be in to why he was on the campaign train in las vegas. the right house is he's only softening mind symptoms and will satisfy slaves at his home. in
12:02 pm
delaware, it is a further blow to bite and who is facing mounting pressure from within his policy to pull out of the presidential race. to adam says, one of the most prominent democrat lawmakers is the latest to call on the president to step aside in a statement that the representative for california praise bye them for his back. but said that united states had reached across the roads, he added and i called while the choice to withdraw from the campaign is president biden's alone. i believe it is time for him to boss to porch. and in doing so secure his legacy of leadership by allowing us to defeat donald trump in the upcoming election. and now those set back, so bite and calm as donald trump's running mates took center stage on the 3rd day of the republican convention in milwaukee geneva. and use the story of his stuff upbringing in a prime time speech, to showcase himself to american voters. the 59 year old ohio send it so it has to
12:03 pm
be precise. trump in the falls, but heaped praise of the former president as he formerly accepted his vice president on the nation. man's also had a message for the americans allies around the world. together, we will make sure our allies share in the burden of securing world peace. no more free rides for nations that betray the generosity of the american taxpayer. together, we will send our kids to war only when we must. but as president trump showed with the elimination devices and so much more when we punch, we're going to punch hard. so what would a victory for donald trump and jude events mean for the medical allies was calling issue is a former german ambassador to the united states and was until recently the german
12:04 pm
of the munich security conference. he's in milwaukee for the republican national convention where he spoke to the top news, washington bureau chief in his folder. okay. using our, i mean, donald trump is also 78 years old. one never knows you could become the president. and what would that mean? uh for the ukraine aid and everything else. i mean, you've been the head of the many munich security conference for so many years. what does that mean or what could that mean? i shall say. well, it means probably that we as an alliance and we as members of the lions lead for the last of 75 years by the united states, that we need to grow out of the key top out of kindergarten. we need to deal with our own responsibilities. they have a security issues, our threats, speaking of russia and other threats, we need to deal with them responsibly on our own. it's great if we can maintain the
12:05 pm
american protective nuclear umbrella and the very, very close transatlantic partnership. but this kind of relationship where we now for decades, apparently thought they, we can out source for ever the care and at the costs to a certain extent of all the security to, to the american people. that's just not a good idea. and this is why, maybe this vice presidential nomination will also help jeff to be a kind of a wake up call for those in our own country in germany and elsewhere in europe. who believe that things have been so good for the last 50. so why don't we just continue? they will not continue. america has decided bands or no vans. that's the next challenge is china. and they will do everything to reduce their burden in europe. and in other words,
12:06 pm
it's up to us and we should be confident enough. and proud enough to handle our own security needs. in other words, let's grow up, but we are not there yet, right? and if donald from gets elected in the pulse at least make it very likely in the moment, everything can change. um, what would that mean for, for germany and europe regarding russia right now in the moment, i'm not talking about the future, but let's say in uh, january and the next president is inaugurated. well, i am told, but all my, it the lock you this here in, in the walkie from the republican team for the campaign insiders. that in fact, the message is donald trump would elected president. make if series attempt to come to, to initiate negotiations. discussions with a name to end this war as quickly as possible. so the question is not whether
12:07 pm
and if the question is how. and i do not believe that donald trump and his advisors would want to end up with a kind of a you know, repetition of afghanistan, where the rest of the world will say, wow, after, after who has studied 2021. now 2025 america is leaving a friend and ally alone again that you know alone for the wolf to start feeding on it. i don't think that is going to happen. let's not forget this. donald trump was the american president who was the 1st to send lisa weapons to train. that's sometimes forgotten in our own debate. so i'm against demonizing, trump. i just, i think we will have huge difficulties. things will be tough. but then, you know,
12:08 pm
i'm old enough. i was around as a young diplomat when we, when we had jimmy carter and, and, and, and ronald reagan, 4040 plus years ago. we've always had huge challenges and sometimes known as differences in the real crises they were all overcome. the nato is today in better shape. it's ever been and we're now 32 members. we got sweden as soon and as new members, turkey remains a member of the allies. so what are you complaining about? let's be proud of what we have achieved. and let's start a reasonably adult dialogue with whoever is going to be the white house next january, so no penetrates that into view of those guys usually are conducted by the the washington village in s. bulloch quick acknowledged some other stories making news around the world. so i'm 45 heads of government have gathered adults, the chair and the u. k. for the european political community summit. and he does
12:09 pm
not expect it to discuss migration, energy security and the fight from russia. the one day some it comes as concerns mount about the potential 2nd, trump presidency and brother the us would remain a reliable ally. the ukrainians have lined the streets to welcome home 95 soldiers who have been the time this bought for prison as well. many of the service men had been held by russia for more than 2 years. the exchange also sold $95.00 russian soldiers being released and returned to moscow. at least 16 people have died in the fire at the shopping center in trying us each one province. the fire broke out as a high rise department store in the city of gong. the center was undergoing construction back at the time of the place. officials say they are investigating the phone, whichever you need us from pacific island countries have released statement projecting code. amy, you need not full of times to change the status, go by the site or use a force encore. they made the comments while attending a summit in japan. it comes as china's influence in the pacific has grown
12:10 pm
substantially in recent years. geography and commission present also off on the line has said your up to date as must address feelings of uncertainty during show stability across the european union funded line made the remarks into streams to the autopay parliament before any piece vote. and whether to give, had a 2nd time in office. she said people were deeply concerned about the cost of living environment and issues and the prospect of the war on making the next week. and was heading out for the program for the next 5 years. she also talked on getting 5 minutes to a big to hold on. and his recent trip to moscow, you cannot control dictate to said demagogues across the world. but it's can choose to protect its own democracy. 2 weeks ago or european union prime minister went to moscow to this so called peace mission was
12:11 pm
nothing but the peace meant mission. this was the plane appeasement mission. and i asked the dot new brussels better tooth alexander, phenomena in strasburg, if found a line hopes this tough line an old on we passed, we had lawmakers to vote for huh. while at least to some extent for sure, because she knows that the majority of lawmakers into european parliament is very critical of victor urban and his governments. they have been accusing his government of violating fundamental values of the you are p and union for years. and they were also very unhappy to see a fund alliance decision last year to a gates hungry access to some funds that were frozen over the rule of law. concerns all of that. she knows at the same time,
12:12 pm
it's also true that victor all bonds trips to most co engaging. and the way how he pretended to be speaking on behalf of the european union, angered a lot of people in the european parliament. but also it was about from the lions commission. and the commission has already announced that there are going to boy could informal meetings organized by how do we that is now holding the rotating presidency. what happens if she lose is this boat? so she's the only candidates if she fails, this is going to plans to you appear to union into a major crisis. the european leaders will needs to come together again to agree on a new candidate. and this person would then needs to start talks with lawmakers from the different political groups in the european problem. and it's can take a while. and the european union will be facing a period of uncertainty. and that at a time when a war and ukraine is still raging,
12:13 pm
and donald trump is likely to in the presidential election in the u. s. so there is a lots of stake rely leave with the for the moment. thanks so much for your reporting. do the most brussels bureau to alexandra phenomena reporting back from strasburg, thanks a lot to china next, where the country is ruling elite is meeting in the capital paging for the long delayed policy gathering called that to clean. i'm no big announcements, audit expected to reform the world's 2nd largest economy sheet. june ping is likely to focus on stability and the face of the real estate prices. i use unemployment and surgeon, government, debt, ads, trade and geopolitical tensions to the megs and the challenges are even more difficult. china is most important meeting is under way in beijing. the platinum held every 5 years to map out the direction of the countries long term,
12:14 pm
social and economic policies. the meeting isn't open to the public, but there's one topic that's an doubted lee on the table for discussion. that's china is sharp, slow down in economic growth. the slowest rate since the 1st quarter of 2023. it said by week consumer demand a property sector meltdown and debt accumulated by local governments. china needs to change its development model. right. so the, the consumer sector is repressed the income generation in china, which basically will, would fuel higher consumer spending over time needs to be strength. and that probably has to be some shifting ownership of assets from the public sector to stronger hands in the private sector. she is focused on another strategy, one that harnesses what he calls new quality productive forces. essentially
12:15 pm
a plan to build more high tech factories with robots and automated machines that can fill the labor shortage gap. but many of the measures that she promised at the platinum and 2013 are still in completing. so didn't tempering expectations this time around. let's get more in from the, the, the blues, china and let's cliff ed cooling down, who's going to be now in the studio. okay, very good morning. so a bunch of sheets and being has apparently been a big proponent for model for role for the private sector. but when that happened as well, i think that's been the messaging that we've been seeing coming from this platinum, but it doesn't match the reality in many ways, always in recent years has actually been more focused on the state sector and a clamp down on the private sector we've seen tie kuhns like jack ma from ali baba
12:16 pm
at disappearing for years because of being of message. things like this. so we're not seeing that much evidence to show that that, that he is focused on the private sector. the state news agency should was said that he was dealing with a lot of structural issues and they said that he had a lot of tough bones that are hard to, to. and this is basically where he stands at the moment. he's trying to encourage the economy to grow more, but at the same time, he has the structural issues in that it's still very much, but the company's parties still very much focused on the state sector. i wanna talk about the structural issue. it's to me, it sounds like there is a fundamental problem with the chinese economy. is that a correct assessment? and if so, is this plan? i'm going to be the one that will take big, bold decisions on it. i think it is. i mean i, i think that is the problem. i don't think the platinum is where we're going to get any big solutions to these problems. a major problem to china phases dash, particular government desk. a lot of local governments have been racking up these
12:17 pm
of the book stats and some economists rec, and it could be up to 11 trillion dollars, which is about twice the size of the central government debt. these are north amounts of money on $800000000000.00. it could be about to be in default. so there's a lot of these data issues, and that means that it's very difficult to encourage growth when you are faced with these enormous debts. and, and so these are the structural issues also the messaging while trying to encourage foreign investments. at the same time, the conditions aren't ideal for an investment is down by about as heard in the 1st 5 months of the year. so there's a lot of the structural issues that are there on the plan isn't really for them for dealing with this. i think i need decisions for, for major revamp of the economy would have to be made by huge and paying on this no real indication that he's prepared to do this. but it's all content intuitive when the economy is not performing well. and you have these fundamental problems that are not new people have been talking about them for date, and they've been wanting to about that yet. no decision has been taken to try and improve status. can you explain that?
12:18 pm
well, for many years, i think there's been a lot of different things working at once in china and the china is in favor of the chinese economy. you've got a massive population. you've had a lot of foreign intervention in the form of investment. and there's been a lot of goodwill towards china, increasingly that's the sort of changing now the economy is maturing. you're not going to see the double digit growth rates that you had in, in the tooth has even up to the, to thousands. instead, you're seeing a more mature economy, but it's also an aging economy. does a big problem with demographics. the fact that china may be that they always say that the thing is, if you get rich before you get old, but china may be getting old before it gets rich. so it's dealing with these massive structural issues. so i think the, in some ways, the prospects for the chinese economy without these major or major structural reforms are looking for the bleak, any big meeting and trying to always as political significance as well. can you talk a bit about that in relation to the 3rd thing?
12:19 pm
i'm, well, a lot of it is p of her. and as we seen in the pictures, the, the, the great hold of the people with the red star and the delegates and all of that sort of the pump. and it is very much part of the political message in china. increasingly, the question is going to be whether he can keep that, whether the company's party come, maintain control while the economy is slowing down. because as long as the economy was expanding quickly, it was very easy for the companies party to, to stay in control. now she jumping has to insist on stability and it's going to be a balancing act going forward and leave it there for the moment. dw is trying to lift the effective and elizabeth chatting with you to to present mex, by a mess of wild fires, of raging in the walls biggest dropped the can button. the pump now is a rich and varied ecosystem stretching across the borders of brazil. olivia and public were so far this year. at least 700000 headquarters have been banned. almost 5 percent of its area,
12:20 pm
leaving it vulnerable to fires. emergency personnel from across brazil are trying to tackle the place is a major factor is a continuing drought which is dried out more than half the wet area. data blue is locked into medical correspondence, nicole race reports. so you can see the extent of the destruction best from the air. this is the punter now. it should be with the drought has dried it out and now fires are consuming its hundreds of thousands of pictures. look like this. 53 days have come from all parts of brazil as well as neighboring bolivia. yours you. oh, today the wind has already turned around $190.00 degrees. you know. so a fighting, going to respond to the wind will change again and every time it changes, we need a different strategy over the stuff. there's no cosmic, today's strategy here is to try to push the flames to was the product. why river,
12:21 pm
the light equipment enables them to move fast and to target the little flames that can lead to so much destruction the fire fire that's because was put on one by us. the next one just already in the making. a lot of little flames develop to one village, well toner and over, you know, tons here this year. as far as breaking records up by more than 2000 percent over last year. 54. it is called the on the growth to try to stop the flies spreading, but much off the ground is pete, meaning fires can continue for days on the fee to hear these bias, last least daunted by people burning rubbish, clearing undergrowth. dave and smoking cigarettes is thank you popped up on this. i saw i will. we need to avoid a mo, regrettable situation in chapel at the may and were taking action because most of the files here are
12:22 pm
a private property and they start to spread into the middle of the pants, a lot of it to state and federal area. so we have to stop it from spreading it into the protected areas, knowing final value of this whole process. that's when you see all this destruction that we saw from the helicopter. how do you feel like i've seen ro cuz you caught us home is or a feeling that low cost a share 0 that ascentis lives by the river. so here land was the sped the fires. but the drought is also affecting the water. it's to me to is lower than normal, jeopardizing the fishing business. s of not that difficult. there are very few fish. we don't have fish like we used to. my, we usually go here to my porch and catch printed or so they were good conducted not just the right size. and nowadays i don't catch them. neither the right nor the wrong size. give me the, the new part or give me the, the,
