we ask, what is the time table in your mind? when do you think that you are, can be off of russian gas? we listen or, and i have seen and played football with these refugees. i look at them and they're happy. they're smiling. we meet with global news makers. i'm talk about the stories that matter on al jazeera. now the answer was an arabic. my name is helen. i was abducted by the cia in 2004. a german citizen was kidnapped and tortured by the c. i, a, he came up with handcuffs, led me into interpretation. a new documentary tells the story of how the geo politics of the post 911 world move in the life of an innocent man, theo mastery case. coming soon on al jazeera ah,

the rest president joe biden says that he would intervene militarily. if china launches an invasion of taiwan. ah, all i'm adrian setting up. this is al jazeera alive from. so also coming up, we came ret, access to be a gradient town there on the under the a constant artillery far as russia intensifies it's eastern offensive. revolutionary gods, colonel is shot and killed in tech rom. on the same day that iran said that it had arrested israeli spies, plus thousands gone a more on the way the doctor exodus that sleeping nigeria is hospitals, desperately understaffed. ah. the last president joe biden is said that he would intervene militarily. if chide up tries to invade ty, one. it was asked during

a news conference with japan's prime minister fully. okay. sheet up biden's on an asia trip that's aimed at shoring up relations with allies and countering china's growing influence in the region. beijing regards taiwan as a breakaway territory. the taipei insists that it must remain independent. you didn't want to get involved in the ukraine conflict militarily. for obvious reasons . are you willing to get involved militarily to defend taiwan? if it comes to that? yes, you are. that's a commitment. we made a 2nd. we may, we are not look, here's a situation. we agree with one china policy we signed onto it and all the attendance agreements made from there. but the idea that that can be taken by force just taken by force, is just not just not appropriate. after president pine and spoke a white house official stressed us policy towards taiwan hasn't changed. that's

cross to i'll just say this, robert bryan, who's lived for us in tokyo. what are we to make up those comments? and it is interesting is that i think this is joe. by once again, i answer your question very directly and possibly not very desperately. he has said that the united states does have commitments to the island of taiwan, which is true, said the white house that very quickly clarifying that this is no change to the one china policy. i think there is a real concern in this part of the world, but at china will have been looking at what russia has done effectively taking unilateral action to change the status quo of a laboring entity effectively send again. the tanks and china might, at some point, be looking to do a willing to do the same with the island of taiwan, which it does regard as a breakaway territory or renegade island,

which is ultimately always going to be part of china. now i think it's important for the americans and that japanese i live here to put on this show to show a sense of strength. basically to say this is what happens if you take such action is that you become a global pariah. you face the sanctions of the international community, look at what's happened to russia with a sideways message to china, telling it not to look at taking some sort of similar action with taiwan leaders or setting up an economic frame framework in another effort to try to contain china that's right, i mean this is what we are seeing today on the activity today. this monday, the setting up of this indo pacific economic framework is we understand as being led by japan and the united states as the u. s. initiative but 11 other countries and this is a gathering of like minded countries due to work together on

a strategically important production for example on computer chips on semiconductors which are important to, to various industries to make sure that the west, if you like in the us and its allies don't lose the edge in this high tech manufacturing as a way of countering china's growing economic and through that diplomatic influence across the asia pacific. but of course china seas, this is a way of trying to hold it back from becoming a as a, a highly developed a high tech industry and a high tech producer. and of course tomorrow, tuesday, we see a gathering of the quad groups of nations as they set for similarly minded democracies. western style democracies across asia pacific led by the united states in japan, but also with australia and india coming together to work out how in years to come

. they can try to constrain china militarily across and o pacific out there. as robert bride reporting live from sophia wrote many thanks and days. president biden was also asked about the future of us tariffs on china, which were imposed by his predecessor. he suggested that some of them may be lifted . i'm talking with the secretary, we get home. i am considered, and we do not oppose any of those tariffs or impose my last ministration and run a consideration. australia's new prime minister is on his way to the leaders meeting in tokyo hours after being sworn in anthony albany. is it is inheriting a tense relationship with china, which wasn't under the prime minister that he's replaced. he says, it's unlikely that will change what i have said and we maintain, he said, the relationship with china will remain a difficult one. i said that before the election that has not changed. it is china

but it's really fatal. professor catherine bennett is an epidemiologist. she says that people are understandably making comparisons between monkey pumps and cove at 19. but these are unfounded. people don't tend to be infectious until they have symptoms. it. one of the biggest challenges with cove, it was both the ease of spread, how it could spread to more casual context, but also that people are out there infectious before they develop symptoms that i don't know. and some people never develop symptoms with mac, with a monkey pulse. the infectiousness comes with quite distinctive symptoms. so it helps identify people who have the infection. they can be isolated, so they not withdraw the paypal and we can find a context as well before they have a chance to become infectious. from a public health point of view, it's easier to contain. and from an individual point of view, you don't have to worry as much about passing the virus on to others. if you have it, you will know it's important. people get treatment early and that will help public health authorities manage the virus in the community as well. well,
