the, the, the china warrens the us against threatening its sovereignty in asia, where an increasing number of nations are leaning toward bay jang instead of washington said israel braces for conflict with a rod as the apartments were public bowers to avenge the killing of the people by the id after in a strike in syria and the gaza is gripped by intense fighting as a war enters its 7th month with no end in sight, with at least 33000 palestinians of portage hills, including 13000 children the live in moscow. you're watching archie international,

i'm rachel ruble. china has warned the us that it's ready to respond to any threats to it sovereign see in the in the pacific region, as after the arrival powers held military talks in hawaii. meanwhile, us treasury secretary genet. jaelyn says that china will face significant consequences if it's company's health prussia in the ukraine conflict. the american official is in bay jang, where she's already met the country's premier and vice minister. ellen's tour comes and washington's concerns about china's manufacturing over capacity and cheap exports that america sees as unfair competition. the treasury secretary is also said the aging and washington are trying to find common grounds. blue. some talk talks on another worrying and trend for the us is china is rising popularity in south east asia, which washington considers its own a sphere of influence. in a notable shifting sentiments, china has experienced the surgeon popularity among respondents from se asia

climbing from 38.9 percent last year to 50.5 percent of this year. edging ahead to become the preferred alignment choice in the region. it's frustrating when you put in the book, but don't get the results. so shed a tear for washington, which i spend the last 12 months building up the china book human need find beijing is don't scary enough to send its neighbors running because it's neighbors or realist smoke. all you do logs like those who spoke the corridors of the capital. so they see the us ramping up on supplies to tie one bases, delegation off to the delegation, flying in. and they had president bite and promising the tune of american peace. so unlike ukraine to be clear, sir, us forces us men and women would defend taiwan in the event of a chinese invasion. yes. and they know the blog post that would inevitably follow. they also know that china is asked him largest trading partner that beijing's

investments in the region a growing year on year. but every single one of them is a beneficiary of the vote and vote initiatives. so china's economic health is that it cannot make health for us targeting this lifeline by slapping on the terrorists restricting access to might put chips and uh, doing allies the site onto the china take down. no, quite the winning strategy. and it's really not reassuring when the ideologues to show what length they'll go to. to ken off the competition. this is one of the interesting ideas, isn't flo floated out there for deterrence is just being very clear to the chinese that if you wouldn't bade taiwan, we're going to blow up ts mc. just throw that out. not because that's necessarily the best strategy for the exam and then, and then of course the highest that i want to use really don't like this idea, right? how is it blowing up to see if you do that, you have a to trillion dollar economic impact on the global economy within the 1st year,

and you'd put manufacturing around the world at a standstill. i mean, this would be, this is a terrible idea. i'm not promoting the idea. i'm not promoting the idea. michelle, you're just saying make it a that's what i'm saying is these are some of the things that are actually actively being debated amongst us. yeah, monthly as policy makers, american foreign policy is also failing to went out in a region with a large muslim population, which is horrified by washington's by king of israel to the last palestinian costs is 0. solve mentality one that's on roster will china fails to hit the mark among nations who are traditionally neutral have ties, including military ones that extend way box decades and still believe in diplomacy . the

nation member states, including obviously seeing and fall, want to maintain good relations with both the us and facing the one make us use. we will refuse the troops. i don't work for amazing. i don't work for washington, dc. i work for the philippines. so i'm on the side of the philippines and the 310 slates into a very simple statement of foreign policy, which is, and i promote the national interest, but peace is not a classic investment for the u. s. military base start. yes. well, in fact, while china has built bridges and railways, washington spent 2023 splashing the cache on yet more basis throughout the se, on region. it's funny, isn't it? how rocking off and a neighborhood fall far away, threatening to stop bulls to blow up the global economy, and why daniel finger 10. i have one to full in line, eventually lose this,

you some good. well, to turkish to a political researcher is smell. armand says washington and its allies are desperately trying to cling onto their waning influence in asia and beyond the teaching that into the format colonial actors of the usa in europe and the existing well, but want to maintain that hasn't been a so it's not easy for them to recognize china is the 1st economy that playing countless games against china, or similarly against russia. though the only military power is in the world that can compare with us, but it serves western interests. they don't recognize any human rights, so knows what they provide. taiwan, when needed, they provide the ukraine, russia issue when needed. they provide the gauze, i have a wide range of different issues of all sol, this open the in the numerous attacks in the israel. i might as well well as people felt like a bomb care felt helpless or turning towards china, china is economic cooperation with age exist,

the roger regional integrations coming mutual prejudices, rehabilitating possible militaristic phase. i think these are also important. on the other hand, i believe turning towards china is a way to balance the us. and i think this is the right way to, i believe china also needs to learn this lesson, otherwise, from a distance geography. what does the us have to do with the asian pacific? for example, people are asking this and what does it have to do with the situation between the states that because here it seems like holding a referee from a fall when neighbors can't get along. but history shows that when that break for re arise, it will home, both parties, therefore neighboring countries have to get along. and we'll see all the, you know, a ron and israel are on a collision course. and the region that's already on fire drawn has vowed to take revenge for an is really strike on there. right. in consulate in syria, which claimed 13 lives, including senior military commanders on pricing for relate for retaliation. israel

has closed the 28th of its diplomatic offices around the world. ron's at the top military commander has threatened to take decisive action. i hope the ration is conducted to the right time with precision and prudence, and with the necessary caution to maximize damage to the enemy would definitely lead to its regret and make it repugnant freights actions. this, of course, comes in the wake of one day strike on the con, see that the rainy and consummate in damascus of syria. and this is a very, very, a momentous event. single country targeting a, another country in a 3rd country. it's, it's a significant breach of diplomatic. no one was if you like. so that's the 1st thing to note that this stuff doesn't usually happen. countries don't usually launch strikes on the diplomatic charity of a 3rd country in a 2nd country if you like. so that's a significant thing. the impact of the strike as well is, is interesting to a 7,

a senior, a rainy and military officials were killed. in this, 2 of them were a brigadier general's. they were part of the codes force, which is the foreign operation side. of the atlantic revolutionary guards core. so that's an, as each military grouping which works with the rainy and allies and friends and the chief of staff of the rainy and military has said that a collaboration for one of the, those killed us at the, at this that there wouldn't be response. and that would happen at when the time was right. so this is feeding and fueling sense of imminence of, of an attack. now, even i a tell a, at least so many the supreme leader, if you like in, in ron has said that would be swift. and definite, a response to this, something that's very interesting is that the radiance of actually as america is wales vegas style, you remember america, phones, and politically supports the way the stays to a huge extent. hundreds of billions of dollars of,

and have pumped into these very state, most of it in military aid. so without americans support a lot of what is well doesn't the region is doing at the moment. thing as what would be impossible that the radius of i should ask the americans to step aside and let us deal with the ladies in relation to dislike in a written message, d as law mich republic of a. ron warn the u. s. leadership not to get dragged into netanyahu's trap, stay away so you won't get hurt. in response, the us ask iran not to target american facilities that the americans have said that they expect and a rainy and response as have these ladies who have suggested in senior is very on american. the face of suggested that they're working together to try to get ahead of whatever this response may be. now, that means is that the is really um, the american intelligence services are working for. you just need to find out what exactly the response would be interesting to you, as well as the world watches and wait to see what happens as president biden. and

benjamin netanyahu have a phone call this week. the key issue for discussion here has shifted from the the, the solved and gaza, to how to manage this increasingly dangerous situation in the, in the wider middle east. and we'd like to have a listen to what had been in yet. and you have said in the aftermath of that phone call with joe boyd, and i think it's quite tele, closer, an entry on board and they've done it for years and run has been action against us both directly. and while its process is that for israel is acting against the run and its process defensively and defensively, we will know how to defend ourselves. and it will act according to the simple principle of whoever homes us or plants to hom, us little hom, them. there is a sense of expectation, not just from the, at the global community that's watching this very nervous and other countries in the region. so you may be a rack all of these countries watching with

a bated breath because it doesn't take much to put you off the powder keg. and what's really fascinating is that in this instance, is both israel, who is now preoccupied, if to a huge extent, with it's war as it calls it in gaza. it has a huge amount of troops on the lebanese border facing off against hezbollah. he's really military is no exceptionally l if you hired, stretched to accommodate the pressures on as a grade or conflict with the rom could push it as well to drastic action. and remember that we know that as well as the noise, it could be in possession of, of significantly destructive weapon we, let's say. and the world is watching at to see what happens next. the course we'll be watching to in the international community, reacted swiftly to the deadly is rarely strike on monday. russia and china expressed concern over the escalating tensions in the region. moscow convened an

emergency un security council meeting over the issue, but western powers used the session to try and shifted the blame it to a ron. a former us marine corps intelligence officer, scott ritter, says the as really prime minister has clearly made a willful decision to escalate the regional conflict. first of all, israel, but it has been striking targets in syria for some time now for the purpose of interdicting your ronnie and capabilities in syria. and so to have such a senior, a rainy and revolutionary guard commander in syria of together with, you know, a country of other persians in one place was, i think, just too tempting of a target for israel. and the fact that they chose to strike a building that is protected under diplomatic convention shows it is real, no longer cares about the rule of law about international law. and this brings us

to the deal, i think there ultimate motiv, benjamin danielle, who understands that he is only viable as a leader of israel, so long as he is in war. he's a wartime leader right now. the moment the current conflict stops, he loses his ability to stay in power, he will be removed from bower. we're looking at a situation where israel is under tremendous pressure to try and wrap up the, the, the, the conflict and gaza, a wit from us. and israel is looking to expand to reach benjamin netanyahu. his government is looking to expand his conflict. and therefore, as taking the extraordinarily bold and irresponsible actions in hopes that you're on, we'll go a slight, he'll find its way to carry out the actions that could be your be get a larger complex. so i think this is part and parcel. the broader is really strategy of expanding the scope and scale of the conflict in the region on tons of

battles are taking place across gaza as the conflict to enters its 7th month is real declared war on homos after the october 7th, the terrorist attack palestinian officials say more than $33000.00 dawson's have since been killed. international groups are crying foul over the humanitarian disaster. over half of the world health organizations, mission requests have been denied or delayed by israel. the a group has now finally gained access to the ruins of the enclave. largest hospital . the w. h. o released footage of what remains of l. c. for after months of idea of raids and bombardments, the images so ravaged hospital wars with bodies strewn across the wreckage of following their visit the members of the un mission referred to the facility as quote, an empty shell with graves. satellite images of, i'll see for put the scale of the destruction into perspective, world health organization spokesperson, margaret harris. describe the hospitals,

loss of someone ripping the heart out of the regions health care system, access to live saving, 8 and gaza is now confined to just 12, partially functioning. hospitals like the majority of the news, our ship a hospital wants the largest, the most important referral hospital and gaza is now with them to show off to the late to seek know patients remain at the facility. most of the buildings are extensively damaged or destroyed, and the majority of equipment is on usable or reduced to ashes. the who team said that the scale of devastation has left the facility completely non functional. so the reducing access to live saving health care in garza, the international observers have warned that around 70 percent of northern dogs as population are close to experiencing catastrophic hunger. the world food program says $1.00 and $3.00 children is severely malnourished. on the u. n. organization is also reported that the number of people facing famine has doubled in the last 2

months. while the program is working to provide all possible aid to god's ends at staff, say their own safety is at risk. well, who has been able here to says 1000000 people every month with food because they completely depend on us. we have times is we don't have the necessary security guarantees to work here. the people also need to be safe. so for that, for us to really be able to scale the verge, simon, so that people don't have to die because they don't have food. we need security guarantees to us as do you, my parents, but also for the people recess in gaza. hey that they have 3 boys in one girl. they need food. where am i supposed to give them food from? i can't afford to buy food, everything is so expensive and i have no money. local kitchen is our safe place. we come here every day. let's see. uh we eat whatever we can find. we eat and we think

gods. my biggest tree is that when someone leaves the house, they won't come back again. that's all i care about that they come back safely in us. in the west bank, 2 people have been wounded and a shooting attack on a busy highway between a pair of palestinian towns. both victims are now being treated in the hospital. the idea of says its troops have been dispatched to the scene. the highway has been closed off in both directions. according to local medics, bullets were fired at a bus and a car on the road. at least one suspect reportedly escaped on foot. a man hunt is currently under way. we will keep you updated on this developing story earlier and tell them the thousands of it's really, protestors took to the streets, demanding the prime ministers resignation. one person was arrested for running a car into a crowd of demonstrators. the

only time people were injured and the incident was to places they were heading home from the rally. police officers managed to stop and arrest the driver who was later identified as a former football or, and the coaches. motors have not yet been revealed earlier, thousands rally depaula and benjamin netanyahu to step down over his failure to return all hostages from gaza. at least 130 people have been held by hamas since october 7. israel husband rejecting the proposed terms of a news swap, deal some of the relatives of the attack. these say the government has failed them to manage to survive 3 months in captivity. he should have been with us today. he could have been with us today and we demand, they wanted to do anything to make these to come to and bring them all back home.

for shame was the prime minister. residing off the 6 months ago, there was installed the mouse and everything. the claim that the ones to go to wall in may come up, go away and bring all those. so just because unfortunately, it didn't that you know, the discussion from christie level $133.00 also just goes off. i hope that i hope that all the well not just the vakio where you try and skip the computer. probably greeny has

won the presidential election beating a pro western opposition candidates. pelligrini is a former prime minister who has been holding the seed of parliamentary speaker. he also leads the social democratic party, which stands against escalating the ukraine conflict. the slovak president elect has doubled down on calls for peace talks as low as quote lu. i will do everything i can to ensure that slovakia, whether anyone likes it or not, always remains on the side of peace and not on the side of war unless whoever wants to criticize me for that as much as they want to public. greenies victory establishes full control of all key posts in the country by the ruling coalition. the nation joins neighboring hungary and opposition to feeling the conflict. the new crane was borders of both countries. as pellegrini prepares to assume the presidency, his parliamentary deputies says their position is a voice of common sense against nuclear escalation with russia. and you spoke to

r. t is exxon of blanco in her world, depart program, which you can watch in full throughout the day, right? here on our tea, there's a preview. the are very much like the way you frame this war in one of your articles. you wrote that it's wrong that to slavic nations are it's war and that's american arms companies making money from in to some extent it's apparent obstacle reality. i wonder how do you see this content proceed as i'm inexplicable or do you think quite the contrary, that it was to some extent predictable that it would have happened? i'm sure this is another conflict between the ukrainian nation and the russian nation. these, the coal street, especially between american and the russia and they're kind of rush i. so it's, of course, the west against the russian federation. everybody's skin cds because eating would be golfing between ukraine and russia. ukraine wouldn't be lost in

a few weeks. we don't want this causally, so it's going to disclose to the ground floor. i think only the people without any common sense then come to you to difficulties calls me that that's why we are designing our and the return and the you will be in boxes because we are in the return. no, because we are and i you will be gone for peace. we want to have good dialogue and good relations on the east, on the north, on the south and west, although all the arts. so i don't think that uh, our, our positions are but gays, to nubian union visa the was of the common sense of the european union. and i'm going to be hungry. for example, if you are very critical to the wars of nate, or for example, us loudy us or in libya, this why the are my priest gold and vc also because he's on the war and ukraine in these expansion of nato, the

as well this sunday, march 30 years since the start of the to, to genocide in rwanda, that some more than 800000 people killed human rights watch, says francis support for the government abra wanda, and the atrocities in 1994 was quote, tantamount to direct participation in the war. the activist group posted that conclusion as it released archives in an effort to raise global awareness and enduring lesson from the genocide as the international communities. failure to take heed of the clear signs that preparations for mass atrocities were under way, including warnings from human rights defenders who put their lives on the line to sound the alarm. despite the passage of time, victims deserve to see those responsible for genocide and other crimes arrested and prosecuted in fair and credible trials for years. consensus has been that to major international actors, policy makers in the u. s. and the u. n. o. understood the gravity off the one to genocide within the 1st 24 hours,

even if they could not have predicted the mass of tools at the slow task would eventually take. but aside from that, there's also phones and the he didn't rowley played in the generous lot press advisory by the human rights watch arms project reiterates the january 1994 reports . conclusions including the francis support to the government of rwanda was tantamount to direct participation in the war and calls on french troops deployed to rolanda, as part of an evacuation force to be replaced with neutral forces from other countries. globally, historians have spent the last few years pouring over government archives, diplomatic cables and military falls. the conclusion for arms was not directly complicit. and the one does mess kennings with french so far as he supported the violent and extreme as government. they were blind to its preparations for the mess . the kind reacted to slowly to stop genocide. some argue that this means paris, therefore, biz overwhelming responsibility for the tragedy. something as slots out of retreats

through london crisis ended in disaster for wanda and, and to feed for france. but as france complicit in the genocide of the tutsis, if this means a willingness to be associated with the genocidal enterprise, nothing in the archives consulted proves that an effort to improve relations with the one that president to manual mcclung commission den investigation and opened the archives to the public, no smoking gun was found a proving defense admitted just direct involvement. the que losing storm the swamps, the hills, the churches did not have the face of france. france was not to go to companies, but some of those to survive the horrors of the genocide unconvinced and were lift, disappointed by the french findings, even the very man who led to the rebellion. but in the small task as regularly accused fronds of complicity in the crimes 20 years later, the only thing you can say against the french in their eyes is they didn't do enough to save lives during the genocide. that's a fact,

but it hides the main point, the direct role of belgium and france and the political preparation of the genocide and the participation of the letter. and it's very execution people still came from . so it's not only involved in the vin spin passivity but actually enabled genocide to read support for the who to receive before during and after the killings between $9.00 to 1990 and i to full it is to the one that was in the state of the economy, social, and political turmoil, and that to the international community was reluctant to come to aid how it boxed the complicity of this does not to the gates. the greater responsibility of france was close populous, allowed it to profit from arms deals and strategic positioning. what happened into one that was more than a crime? it was an event. so that seemed to mandatory in a rapid light escalating raft. mexico has announced it is severing ties with ecuador, that's after police storm to the mexican embassy and tito,

and the rest of the former ecuadorian vice president who had taken refuge there. the mexico says several diplomatic workers were injured during the raid, former vice president, jorge gloss, 2 faces, corruption charges was granted asylum at the embassy. in december, the mexican leader says, the sanctity of the diplomat. the commission has been violated former bolivian and bass, or essential or anti says the attack undermines the original unity and could have been orchestrated by external forces. shoes, this is the end of the century. is mostly these look just a breach of international law is not just a violation of the radical side of the schools. i the, the attack against the people a lot in the caribbean to become integrated up to become more

consolidated. associate. it is really a very, very serious situation. i know that the eh, mixing will pursue these cases. yeah. because it is not something that should be just saw in terms because so because it was a violation of the sovereignty full, lexi slur heard a person who had it was 16. so it was great to decide what's up to michigan to have moved out there to do the scan with other students with the coverage, the united states. you have to remember that the recently,

the general description of the so called the dealer, the director of the office, the 1st 3. and the reason, of course, this side of the united states, they tell us about is more of their own was the former ecuadorian president. rafael korea says the embassy invasion was a criminal act that could potentially lead to war. may have been a few limits that it's impossible to understand. this has not existed either in the history of what america or in the world to break into the embassy violating the vienna convention. this is the territory a foreign state. it's looking to bring it in the country and detain a politic correction, chief violating the caracas conventions in an institution, providing the site put door behave like an outcast on the global scale. let the americans condemnation and outreach was through natalie.
