hello again welcome back we're here crossed the western part of and we have been seeing a lot of clouds with the storms coming in off the eastern med and that is not really going to change as we go towards the next couple of days mostly activity here on monday will be across parts of turkey maybe making its way toward syria but unfortunately as we go towards tuesday that activity slowly makes its way to syria as well as into lebanon with heavy rain across the region so would watch never carefully the higher elevations will be seeing some snow in opera that means a mix of rain and snow for you with the temperature there of about six degrees well here cross the gulf not looking too bad for many locations sunny for many with the temperature in doha about twenty six degrees over towards abu dhabi maybe sr twenty seven but we do think we're going to see those temperatures begin to come down so for riyadh however twenty three for you there but over towards miska a beautiful day with a temper there of twenty seven and then very quickly across the southern part of africa we are seeing plenty of rain here across the east down towards the south not
1:02 pm
looking too bad for cape town plenty of sun in your forecast at twenty three degrees but as we go towards tuesday that rain makes its way towards the east we're going to see over towards marriage yes your temperatures into the low thirty's but rain in your forecast in johannesburg it's going to be a partly cloudy day for you the temperature of about twenty six degrees. the with the sponsored boycott on news. i'm his story is only for the people every week brings a series of breaking stories told through the eyes of the world's journalists these two voices journalists were one of the few journalists that were actually doing investigative work. post as we turn the cameras on the media and focus on how they were caught on the story so much and see bias the rights to those stories but then he never publishes those stories they're listening post on al-jazeera.
1:03 pm
welcome back. a reminder about top stories this hour the fiance of jamal khashoggi has told al jazeera she will continue her fight to ensure everyone involved in his matter is brought to justice new details of the saudi journalist's last moments of a match to u.s. media according to those reports his final words were quote icon. the gulf cooperation council summit has ended in saudi arabia with no some agreement on how to resolve the mering disagreements between member states. chua way has rejected allegations that it breached the u.s. sanctions regime against iran it follows the arrest of one of its top executives in canada on washington's request. it's

a landslide victory for armenia's acting prime minister following parliamentary elections they call passion yan led the so-called velvet revolution and took power after a week of protests toppling the government of nearly twenty is his party has won more than seventy percent of votes with almost ninety. sense counts as today has become the latest country to pull out of a un pact aimed at improving global cooperation on migration it's due to be signed in morocco on monday a host of countries are refusing to support it and creating a strain austria and the united states david manne is the executive director of the refugee and integration legal center he says many immigration policies are driven by fear well the whole issue of migration and asylum has been central political issues for at least two decades they have been a major point of political contest and effectively what we have same between the
1:05 pm
two major parties who formed governments in the last two decades it's really interminable political casting over who can have the harsher approach towards people seeking asylum in australia particularly by post and so a lot of the controversy and a lot of that that the politics of fear has focused around for protection that is the management of borders and particularly the policies which have sought to block people from seeking asylum see strata it remains a central issue in australia and what's quite clear is that both political parties major political parties have sat around lockstep on the question of strong border protection their use the fact of lead blocking access from sickness allam particularly if they try to get to a strand of us saying. one of the one of the great challenges however is that really the policies have in many respects famed based on politics politics of fear but they've also fundamentally been about not responsibility sharing but
1:06 pm
responsibility shirking because the strategies policies have been treated very much by domestic political imperatives of the day. greenpeace activists projected a message on to the venue of the un climate conference in poland demanding action from world leaders the first week of climate talks and cuts of it say ended without agreement the intergovernmental panel on climate change recommended global warming be kept below one point five degrees celsius but saudi arabia kuwait russia and the united states refused to endorse its report has more as part of our special coverage despite more than twenty years of climate conferences like the one underway in poland right know the amount of carbon emitted continues to rise so you can say that international political cooperation has so far failed some believe we should put more effort and money into radical scientific solutions to keep climate
1:07 pm
change your way we focus now on geo engineering the injection of millions of tons of sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere could help limit temperature rises. when mount pinatubo erupted in the philippines in one thousand nine hundred ninety one it spewed twenty billion tons of sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere the cloud mixed with water vapor and circled the globe for twenty two days average global temperatures found by about half a degree for eighteen months. scientists think that this effect could be mimicked to help tackle climate change they propose a technique called solo geo engineering and recent research suggests it could be remarkably cheap. engineering is the idea that when one makes anything including the planet more reflective it cools what is underneath is the
1:08 pm
reason why frankly when our jackets are black and in the summer we often wear white . white cools black warms for the project to work aviation engineers would need to manufacture a high altitude aircraft it would look something like this would roughly double the wingspan of a passenger jet to sustain flight twenty kilometers above the earth and have double the thrust with the four engines the main body would carry large amounts of sun blocking particles which could be fired into the stratosphere the gases would turn into aerosols and reflect part of the sun's heat scientists estimate this method could reduce temperatures by one and a half degree centigrade over a fifteen year period the direct engineering costs of an intervention like this would be somewhere or around two to three billion dollars per year and that is very low but all are convinced some scientists warn it risks unintended consequences
1:09 pm
such as droughts and damage to crops they also argue let some governments off the hook the problem with this sort of idea is that it can encourage governments to feel that it's less urgent to do something about greenhouse gas emissions so they think that if they do so in a geo engineering they don't need to worry quite so much about stopping fossil fuel emissions i think that's very risky. there's worldwide consensus that carbon emissions need to be cut to tackle climate change but with the effects of global warming already being felt some are looking to science to find a solution where governments have failed. barkha al-jazeera. after weeks of violent antigovernment protests the french president is due to address the nation on monday and then you'll also meet unions and protest groups the so-called yellow vest demonstrations were initially over fuel tax hikes but they've now become an anti government mass movement calling from across to resign. there's been

1:22 pm
broadcaster takes the complaints of a critic and puts them to song. tax man filipino president roderigo due to attack is the latest leader to go after a news organization over alleged tax evasion and post colonial broadcasting in peru news in pre-colonial language we begin with the fractious issue of palestine and israel in the u.s. news media the boundaries around that discussion who gets to set them and what ultimately is allowed to be said last week a c.n.n. contributor a commentator the network had on its payroll delivered a speech at the united nations in support of palestinian self-determination and equal rights less than twenty four hours later c.n.n. was done with marc lamont hill when you boil it down he was fired for using the following six words from the river to the sea that was deemed anti semitic heels dismissal came on the heels of
1:23 pm
a seemingly coordinated attack by pro israel groups that have. um to have a large say over what constitutes acceptable discourse on palestine in the us by willfully conflating a legitimate criticism of israel was anti semitism and then convincing news outlets to do the say it wasn't that long ago that c.n.n. adopted the slogan facts first when it comes to israel though it's much more complicated than that some facts are clearly more inconvenient than others our starting point this week is the un's headquarters in new york city. it is with great honor and humility that i accept the opportunity to speak for you the speech lasted twenty one minutes and seven seconds is really nation state continues to restrict freedom and undermine the palestinian citizens of israel as well as those in the west bank and gaza it consisted of two thousand eight hundred
1:24 pm
and thirty seven words i promise you that i will not exhaust all of my time by every human rights violation perpetrated by the israeli government had the speech been six words shorter marc lamont hill would still be employed by c.n.n. had he ended it like this give us justice requires. and that is a free palestine instead he chose to end it like this a free palestine from the river to the sea when marc lamont hill says a free palestine from the river to the sea he is acknowledging that palestinians are just clustered in the west bank and gaza but in fact we are from places like africa and yafa and measure and the galilee and all parts of palestine and the significance of this is that israel has always sought to erase this
1:25 pm
historic fact they're not just objecting to use of the. of the words from the river to the sea but palestine now i understand why the vagueness of that term may lead some to misinterpret it i understand that somebody who identifies as a pro israel zionist may have an issue with a one state vision because equal rights for everyone would effectively mean the end of the jewish state a state the privileges the jewish population over the non jewish population that's why we see people resorting to a smear campaign so c.n.n. not only have a right to fire him this is a piece of open anti-semitism if actively misdirecting what those words actually mean that's right out of a hamas script that calls for the and i lay sion of israel that is not what that phrase means at all people decided to to zoom in on what was supposedly the truth subtext of what he's saying is an active search to find a very diligent and i think sentence that reveals some nefarious intent in
1:26 pm
a call for freedom and we see that over and over again and one of the main giving reiver is to doubt forrest is a conflation between critique of israel and anti-semitism in the twenty minute speech he said many branches and important things about the plight of palestinians at the same time you know if somebody gave a beautiful speech and then in the middle of it said the n. word we would be right sort of focus on that now again i don't think that the phrase from the river to see is necessarily anti-semitic but it was interpreted that way by many jews and so i think it was fair to focus on that. but how was that interpretation arrived at the anti-defamation league a jewish n.g.o.s based in the u.s. said lamont hill's use of the phrase from the river to the sea meant that he was calling for the end of the state of israel. the a.d.l. describes itself as a civil rights organization that fights bigotry and anti semitism in the u.s. however it has little or no tolerance for those who question israeli government
1:27 pm
policies collect. pro israel lobby groups in washington including the a.d.l. apac the jewish federation of america and others are the kings of conflation they carry a lot of weight with politicians and the media alike and when c.n.n. saw the online pushback to what lamont hill had said it just rolled over and cut him loose. this is definitely an organized campaign that has attempted to misrepresent hill's views somebody like ben shapiro who is a host of fox news right now is openly an advocate of israel ethnically cleansing palestinians from the palestinian territories seth mandell who is the editor of the washington examiner made the most egregious charge against hill accusing him of advocating for genocide and c.n.n. by caving to the smear campaign is absolutely playing into the hands of people who want to make that conflation and are undermining free speech in the process there's definitely a problem right now in the public sphere where some versions of anti side is
1:28 pm
a more opposition to israel are immediately called by some on the right anti-semitic this is of course a huge problem in terms of what marc lamont hill side i think c.n.n. was thinking probably about its viewers and about the jewish community and saying well the majority of the community viewed this as deeply problematic as something that threatens their very existence and so they need a decision based on that santa. perpetuated this narrative this fall they caught him this idea that you have to choose and don't critique israel or be anti-semitic it's even more problematic because of the positive role that it could play in this conflict and this nurse that discussion will not be on c.n.n. because they fired dr hill but that would be a perfect place and a perfect opportunity to have this discussion warren and with that with us now from massachusetts professor alan dershowitz and john thanks so much for being here senator thank you so cnn's treatment of the middle east conflict can be measured
1:29 pm
not just in the pro isr. voices it pays to provide punditry like the former israeli ambassador to washington michael oren x u.s. senator rick santorum and lawyer alan dershowitz but in the air time they are given israel wants peace and even the anti-defamation league has said gordon's opinions verge on conspiracy theories yet he's still a paid c.n.n. contributor and is often interviewed by wolf blitzer blitzer's bio on c.n.n.'s new site is as revealing about the network as it is about him it's an extensive and detailed summary of a career going back forty years but no where the c.n.n. mentioned no i could rest mr blitzer in the one nine hundred eighty s. blitzer worked at the time he was a paid lobbyist for israel you were all of us should be delighted that we happen to be around the time in this world when there is this israel we wrote to c.n.n. with a series of questions on this story but did not hear back and wolf blitzer is not
1:30 pm
just another face on the network he is cnn's lead political and. it's institutional it's imbedded in the fabric of c.n.n. named pollster it with gas like michael oren usual take whatever measures are necessary to defend its citizens and rick santorum for example denying that palestinians even exist and all the people that live in the west bank are israelis they're not palestinians there is no palestinian all these people get to stay on c.n.n. and wolf blitzer who is you know an ardent zionist and with a history of working for the israeli lobby he gets to frame. the story and. rarely do palestinians ever get a voice on c.n.n. it is really interesting to compare the discourse about palestine among israelis and among. americans when i moved to that state i was surprised that the word
1:31 pm
occupation. uncomfortable to some. pro israel advocate i don't look i know i don't i don't buy the whole idea that the united states on the occupation i mean this is says israel and israel you do have people talking about occupation and till there is movement in the united states politic that can utter these words that can say what is the problem that we need to solve and that is. will be very far from a solution. the pro israel lobby has worked to influence american political discourse extends into academia the canary mission is a website that compiles dos days on pro palestinian college students and professors in the us some of those named on it say it's akin to a blacklist designed to intimidate them into science al-jazeera has investigated
1:32 pm
the site but that documentary has yet to be broadcast leading some to speculate that even al jazeera is not immune to pressure from the pro israel lobby in the us which the network the not. professor marc lamont hill and academic now deposed from the media platform c.n.n. gave him would know both sides of that story but as of this writing he's not talking which is the whole point of the exercise. it is crucial for people to understand the magnitude of the threat to free speech and the form of denying the ability of an activist to be part of the narrative in the united states this takes many forms we are facing a very serious threat to free speech in the form of denying the right to speak honestly about the israeli palestinian conflict and the right to have. another media story that's on our radar this week is unfolding in the philippines
1:33 pm
it's one we've been following for a couple of years now the case of president rodriguez do terror today versus rappler a news website that's been the president's bet now are for its critical coverage of his government's war on drugs and its online dissent from ation campaign. earlier this year rapper's license was temporarily revoked and just last week the site and its founder maria ressa were indicted for tax evasion which raised more than a few eyebrows maria ressa joins us on the listening post now to discuss this case and president to take his approach to dealing with his critics in the news media ms ressa wrapper is not the first news outlet critical of a government to suddenly develop quote unquote tax issues we've heard similar stories in turkey for instance is the case against you and rappler politically motivated absolutely i mean i've run out of synonyms for the word ridiculous for the foundation of a lot of these multiple legal cases that we're now facing do you have any faith
1:34 pm
that the justice system in the philippines can deal with this case without folding under political pressure i continue to have faith in the individual men and women inside to sherry i mean obviously the fact that the cases have been filed show political pressure. we have a very powerful executive president detected controls not just the executive branch he is a super majority in congress and the legislature he also by that i am he leaves office will appoint the thirteen to fifteen supreme court justices right all we can do is you know expect the worst but hope for the best we've seen all those comparisons between two territories approach to the news media and president trumps but when the trumpet ministration goes after the us media whether it's revoking the credentials of a c.n.n. white house correspondent or simply calling journalism that the president doesn't like fake news it gets a lot of flack in return from other news organizations and lots of ordinary americans are we seeing enough of that in the philippines because none of this
1:35 pm
really seems to be hurting president do terror tape politically. i think you'll be surprise you know i the differ the biggest difference between the united states in the philippines is the strength of the institutions in the united states but the spite our weak institutions in the philippines what we feel in rappler is that more of our more of our supporters are coming out precisely because it's not just about one it's not just about journalism you're talking about values and principles of our constitution and i only say that if if our people do not hold government accountable for crossing the lie then when it does this country will no longer be a democracy i think that's part of what's at stake here so it's a tough time maria ressa thank you. to peru now where forty five percent of the population is indigenous but where the media have long failed to reflect the
1:36 pm
demographic facts and it starts with a language spanish dominates the airwaves there but over the past year the country's public broadcaster canal peru has launched two new news programs in the two main indigenous languages i mara and catch will the following report is on one of those programs it's in catch you and it's called new country for us to catch oil is the most widely spoken indigenous language in the americas almost fifteen percent of peruvians speak it fluently and its appearance on canal peru is being seen as an attempt albeit overdue to redress the racist legacies of the colonial era listening posts not celebes our own now from lima with the journalists behind and can't. switch on the t.v. improve soon into any of the big radio stations open up
1:37 pm
a national newspaper and the information citizens will get the information they need will be in a language that many of them might not understand spanish. last year however the proof reinstate broadcaster started airing a new show that broke the mold. i need to. change the result was being broadcast in. an indigenous language one that many with speakers would prefer to deny a new country where the language you speak mocks your class highlights your economic status and defines your prospects. program like a ping the very fact that this program is being broadcast means that catch your speakers will lift their heads up and we'll be better informed and they will no longer be ashamed of speaking keep reading my email or language tristan is an embarrassment. it was frowned upon and we were looked down on. and cynical of the
1:38 pm
the significance of this news broadcasting catch us is that it recognizes the fact that this is a multicultural multi-lingual multi ethnic country more than we stick with. it only some people have complained they don't understand well my only response is that finally they get what it's like to be a kitsch was speaker in peru watching the national news in your own country and not understanding because it's broadcast in a language that's not your own. you can see it does more than just book caused in a different language the producers say their mission is to reflect a different reality a perspective that isn't mainstream in peru so while the morning news in spanish might be dominated by his own lima politics when you can take a significant proportion of the news is truthful remote locations there's a focus on the concerns of the farming population going on when you go gentleman that means they don't know not just yet he's got all this on record on government
1:39 pm
policy fiscally i mean it would come but if he didn't pick up the public to take money you might tell you a few numbers him up high up fast or they bring in money to invest uncle not believe it i just take what i took it literally just because the program i think it doesn't mean we're going to see just folk music and dance these are important and valuable aspects of that culture but its fundamental purpose is to address people's needs. by going to. new country has a responsibility to report on inequalities on the ground what does big business want what does the state say about those big projects what are they taking from our earth what are we going to do with the profits from forests of the world it's our duty to tell these stories young when i think. this is not the first time pearl. state t.v. has bookers news and get to a. was
1:40 pm
a news broadcast in the early seventy's the picture on t.v. for the first time the program came about as part of planning a nationwide agrarian reform campaign carried out by the left wing military government of general one will ask about. the last call declared in one thousand nine hundred seventy fool that there was quote no freedom of the press in peru only freedom of enterprises he reined in what he saw as the elite media established good as an official language and used the state broadcaster to promote equal rights for indigenous groups a bit derided as populist propaganda by his critics but celebrated by many across the country who felt they'd been ignored for centuries. even the kitchen became one of true is official languages and one nine hundred seventy five and the more than four decades since it's really been given much air time is our
1:41 pm
national t.v. or radio that means that there's four million people more than ten percent of first population whose first language is not spanish a hard time understanding the news. the other side of the story has to do with narrative and this stereotype of the voices in the mainstream media upright indigenous people the smack of racism and of provoked outrage in peru and beyond. take. us into the present assure that claim to be a comedy about an andean indigenous woman living in the capital lima. a bystander has seen the became so popular with its viewers that it got its only weekday prime time slot conflict when she a latina one of courage biggest private t.v. channels which put things a changing a group of indigenous women from the andean region of cusco have been waging a long. legal battle to get the show banned last month they won the judge ruled for

the show to be taken off air and of you tube. and up and died there's her suitor the villager iliotibial the president there's thousands of characters like that in the public eye at least today we've become more discerning but we used to laugh at them this went on for years and nobody questioned it much too so it can get out they were seen in there one of the great western myths is that hygiene is synonymous with civilization so what we're trying a native indian woman is one can't you position her in a kind of pre-modern world enough. she is truth dirty rotten her speech and masculine in demeanor this idea of the native and in woman is reflected in news narratives because they always portrayed her as a victim and they suggest that people like her are inadequate and ultimately unable to integrate into mainstream society. i realised
1:43 pm

1:50 pm
don't know if i were the sort of i want to expose the details of this horrific crime identify the perpetrators and put those who carried out the killing on a fair trial including those who ordered the hit so they get the punishment they deserve on behalf of jamal's relatives and loved ones and i say this is i'm one of them we need to know the whereabouts of his body this is a basic human right. now you don't look at the local i was convinced he was still alive i never imagined such a crime could happen in a consulate and a simple normal person can never imagine what happened in the jamal never committed any crimes and never did wrong in any way and all he did was in turkey consulate to get hold of legal papers to get married we were on the right track him and i he wanted to build a new life and as you know he was excelled and he was in so much pain overt so to be honest i never imagined the day i'd be in this position to be honest it still
1:51 pm
hasn't sunk in yes you see me sitting and talking and talking about what happened but a human can't the words fail me and more details are emerging about the last moments of saudi journalists. and then a clear reference to that a top u.s. republican has again gone on the attack against the saudi crown prince shihab rattansi has more from washington d.c. . this latest account of the transcript of the recordings made while jamal khashoggi was being murdered is consistent with all the information we've had so far about his death but it does out a few details because rugby's last words i can't breathe followed by multiple screams gasping and then the sound of a small cutting it says what's also significant is the three phone cools placed by what c.n.n. says was abdul aziz tribe who is often described as a frequent companion of muhammad bin salma the crown prince of saudi arabia and
1:52 pm
c.n.n. says the trip is updating someone who turkish officials say was in riyadh with a very calm step by step sense of detail about what is taking place and panicking going on this is very very calm so you know to put this to the saudis and their only query was that in the transcripts of that they've seen and the information that they've had from the turks there's no mention of a cool that's the only thing that they're clearing about this information but the information does appear according to c.n.n. exactly the sort of information that those on call in congress have been hearing from the cia and others and that perhaps explains why lindsey graham remains so angry as he was on the sunday talk shows if it weren't for the united states said be speaking farsi in about a week in saudi arabia their military can't fight it out of a paper bag they give us nine percent of our all imports we need them a lot less than they need a side of this you've got to hook up to murderous regime can be
1:53 pm
america from iran quite the opposite i think hooking up with him we heard our ability to govern the region and we are expecting congress to act on three fronts in the coming week first there is the resolution to end support for the war in yemen that's primarily driven by the appalling humanitarian catastrophe that but it's gain support as a result of the murder. khashoggi in addition there are also resolutions to suspend almost sales to saudi arabia to hold muhammad bin someone personally responsible for the murder of democracy under. eighteen suspects extradited to stand trial but saudi foreign minister has once again rejected those demands. with regards to their rents we will not hand any of our citizens to turkey even the turkish constitution prohibits the extradition of their own citizens so why should
1:54 pm
we turkey has not provided us with the information that we need on the investigation the legal way. leaders of gulf nations have met for the gulf cooperation council summit but the meeting is only a. division between at six. as heads of states and leaders from the gulf cooperation council met in riyadh for their annual summit a notable absence he was the emir of qatar doha instead opting to send a junior minister qatar remains under a land air and sea blockade imposed by fellow council members saudi arabia bahrain and the united arab emirates eighteen months ago it's a crisis that has brought into question the very existence of the g.c.c. nevertheless the saudi king said monopolizes fail to even mention it during his opening remarks instead choosing to focus on iran and other issues. that were tried yeah you know when a region is witness
1:55 pm
a huge challenges that we all know we face to resume and iranian policy we also need to stop these countries from interfering into the turn the affairs of our country this is the second summit to take place since the blockade on qatar began the last one was held in kuwait which has been the leading mediation between the two sides on that occasion shift i mean but have tended while the blockading nations leaders refused to show up and despite failing to solve the g.c.c. crisis amir it seems has not given up i don't know if. we have faced a lot of challenges and on top of the member of the differences between our g.c.c. nations we need not to risk the interests of our peoples the peoples of the g.c.c. council states the g.c.c. must not be hesitant we need to keep our situation firm. and we need to be able to face the challenges in our region. a core reason for the success of the g.c.c. has been in its provision of free movement of people and goods between member
1:56 pm
states with the embargo and the council's inability to resolve the crisis. there are all those that question the future of the organization i don't think we can say confidently that the g.c.c. is dead i think it's more realistic to say that the g.c.c. is dormant right now possibly down the road when circumstances in the region change you have different leaders in these countries possibly the g.c.c. will return to being a relevant institution in the middle east although that's certainly not possible right now given the culture crisis for the average person in the g.c.c. very little will change as a result of this summits the huge aspirations of a single currency nato style dolph defense force in the railway network connecting member states that were once on the agenda of meetings like these seem like distant memories now instead it would appear that simply being able to hold such a summit is seen by saudi arabia and others as an achievement in and over itself to
1:57 pm
monitor you on al-jazeera who eats. the saudi u.a.e. coalition fighting in yemen says it's issued seventeen permits for ships with food and fuel to enter ports their aid is desperately needed in a country which the un has described as facing the wild west humanitarian crisis twenty million people don't have enough food or in parties met in sweden for the fourth day of un that talks with little progress on a political solution to end the conflict in the coming days u.s. senators will vote on a resolution to withdraw america's support to the saudi u.a.e. coalition republican senator rand paul says u.s. involvement in yemen can only have a negative impact. i think that when we're dealing with arms that no personal financial dealings should have anything to do the decision and really not even the finances of the country and i think selling arms should have to deal solely with our national security not jobs not money nothing and i really think that the war in
1:58 pm
yemen that we have no vital national security interest and not only that i think our involvement in this terrible war is one of the things that engender is more terrorism as more people die from starvation as people pick up bomb fragments when a school bus is killed and on the bomb fragment it says made in america it creates more terrorism so i think it's actually a risk to our national security to be involved with the saudis and we should not be aiding and abetting their bombing of civilian areas qual way has rejected allegations that it breached u.s. sanctions against iran the chinese telecoms giant says it communicated with u.s. government agencies on a daily basis to obtain guidance that follows the arrest of one of its top executives many lungs in canada on washington's request the detention and extradition process have opened yet another rift between the welds top two economies who are already engaged in a trade war adrian brown has more from beijing. well
