[000:00:00;00] ah oh, i wish the fisher and line of the journey. ah, this is al jazeera. ah, hello, i'm adrian for the good. this is, these are live from doha coming up in the next 60 minutes, handshakes other grievance in fiji. but china's economic and security deals with pacific nations fails to take off more western support for ukraine. the french
1:01 pm
foreign minister is in cave will take you there live, whose stuff of that road still aiming to become columbia. as 1st left his leader. as the former rebel winds, the 1st round of the presidential election, a promising action on gun control, the u. s. president consoles grieving parents who lost children in last week's school shooting in texas. and in school, the boston celtics will face the golden state warriors in the n b, a finals itself. it's about the miami heath to win the eastern conference. tampa said, ah, china's foreign minister has been unable to secure a regional deal with pacific island nations. it's the aim of foreign minister wang ye who sin fiji as part of an 8 country tour of the region out here as white hay
1:02 pm
report south from suva. as pacific island nation slowly emerged from the cove at 19 pandemic. a new diplomatic battle is under way and china is on the offensive. rebuilding the regions, economies will take time and outside assistance, and beijing is extending a helping hand, leaving job war don't be too anxious and don't be too nervous because the common development and prosperity of china and all the other developing countries would only mean greater harmony, greater justice and greater progress of the whole world. the latest stop on chinese foreign minister, one year, 10 day tour of the pacific was fiji. where he met prime minister frame binding. madame a jill political point scoring means less than little to anyone who's our community . you slipping beneath the rising seas, whose job has been lost or opened demick, or whose family is impacted by that ip address in the price of commodities. the main feature of his visit to sue though,
1:03 pm
was supposed to be the signing of an agreement with foreign ministers from 10 countries. but it didn't happen. the so called common development vision outlines wide ranging plans to improve relations between china and the island nations, including increased cooperation on security. last month, aging, signed a security packed with the solomon islands, that some observers say may lead to a permanent chinese military presence there. this vast region, again, finds itself caught in the middle of a much wider struggle for power and influence at the moment being courted economically, isn't a bad situation for these countries to be in. but the area strategic importance has many worried that that struggle could be taken to a dangerous new level. the pacific nations are also on the front lines of climate change. and that's been a feature of the foreign ministers to many countries here are at risk from rising sea levels. and there's a sense there concerns haven't been taken seriously enough by regional powers, australia, and new zealand. despite that, experts,
1:04 pm
a fiji in particular isn't going to sign any agreements that will harm relations with its allies. figured as i want to have. i think i'm too much dependence on any one country. ah, and it's, it's very, i think in port for fiji to have good relationships with all the major powers. one ye may not have secured the regional deal he was hoping for, but the chinese will be taking a long term view of their pacific relationships. this has been a highly visible to us so far and that in itself may be viewed as a success. wayne, hey, al jazeera, soother, fiji wife, the beijing out as there is katrina here is there for us. katrina was trying to been saying about all of this. wilton is foreign ministry and chinese state nidia, very much downplaying the fact that the hasn't been any consensus in the pacific islands, in fact, the strip has been covered as quite a positive diplomatic tool by china's foreign minister, one ye, they've been emphasizing the warm welcome he received by fijian leaders and other
1:05 pm
officials from these pacific islands nations. and when asked about this, china's foreign ministry spokesperson, john lee, jen said that he acknowledged that there was no wide consensus agreed on on this pack. but he did say there was some consensus on some other issues and we understand these to be issues of economic development, corvette and climate change. and he said that what was agreed on was an important step towards a final agreement. and he also said that china would continue pragmatic and active discussions to reach an overall consensus. so the view from beijing is that this is far from over. this is far from shelves and china will continue to try to work with these pacific island nations to achieve some sort of packed and clearly it is a region that is very important for china. earlier in the day, president jim paint sent a written address to the leaders of these pacific island nations. he said that china had
1:06 pm
a long history of friendship and brotherhood with these nations. and that if use all of these countries as equal, no matter what size they are, that china equally respects them. and also that this good friendship would continue no matter how the international situation changes. so i think bating is really trying to stress that it's reaching out, or in terms of friendship that there is no strings attached in terms of what it's offering that any deals that they're trying to negotiate are mutually beneficial. and it has deny of past that it's tried. it's trying to militarize the region. i think the main message from she jan pings address in particular that is that aging will not perhaps like some other western nations or put any pressure on these island nations to choose between the west or a china of the zeros katrina you reporting live from bay jane katrina many thanks, da da. let's look into the details of the deal. the paging had been proposing for
1:07 pm
the pacific nations, china's offering to train their law enforcement officers. as part of a new security arrangement. it's proposed to develop a joint plan to raise fisheries output, especially tuna. china's also seeking to set up a free trade area across the pacific region, and it wants to step up co operation in running internet networks. benjamin erskin, which is a research fellow at the school of regulation and global governance at se trillion national university just now fosgate from cambra. good. tell you with us uh, benjamin how much of a setback is this for china? does it amount to a rejection, a slap in the face? it's one of the thanks for the invitation. i think this is an interesting way of framing the issue. my suspicion is that as your correspondent invasion, just pointed out, this is not the last we're going to hear of this kind of deal between china and pacific island countries. on the face of it,
1:08 pm
it looks like beijing it has been rebuffed, but chinese intent here is very serious. it's long term, and china has the institutional capacity and the resources to bring to bear, to seek to we know specific other countries long term. so this is a set back, china probably would have hoped to get the deal across the wine on the 1st go. it hasn't done that, but it's certainly not the last. we're going to hear. ready these kinds of arrangements between china and the citric islands and there's every chance that china. ready ramp up its efforts ran up the diplomatic, the economic, the trade, the logistical. ready the people who people inducements to get something like this across the line. and actually why is trying to so canes develop influence in pacific countries given that it's, i'm a champion and an economic priority for china it's, it's something to do with security. this is a critically important question. i think it's worth while remembering that from the agents perspective,
1:09 pm
the civic in general and the south pacific in particular it's not a primary or. ready jewish strategic concern, it pales into insignificant in comparison to southeast asia in the south, tennessee, china trade route crossing the notion of course, the boss or relationship with japan, all the united states. so it's not a priority, but the fact that china is diverting resources to these kinds of agreements speak to beijing is truly global ambitions. china have the goals and the capacity to we influence and develop relations because the realm of evan is not the most important countries for china economically speaking, strategically speaking, another aspect to this is that even low pacific, our countries are small, demographically, and economically. and also. ready military strategic tons, they are significant play. ready in multilateral organizations, china seeks to develop influence in organizations like united nations, of course, and associated multilateral bodies. and when the pacific on countries is an
1:10 pm
important goal. ready in that talk and then you've got to add to it the taiwan doctrine and all of this from china perspective, there are still countries in the pacific. the recognized taiwan as china and beijing would hope to we. ready countries and spread the one china or approach that recognizes beijing already representing china. so if china gotta keep pushing for deeper political, diplomatic, at economic ties with pacific nations, where, where does this leave? australia we just really in a very awkward condition, frankly, that's really allowing you deal and they have pride themselves in the course of many decades as being part of the choice of being key provided or infrastructure. all assistance in times of desire for times of need and provide a lot of security and expertise. charter effectively saying that the only game in town is no longer. ready screen to less extent you 0 and we are going to be significant. ready player and australia, new zealand. another how's alaskan tend we've large and growing influence from.
1:11 pm
ready b j and a growing capacity for chinese bureaucracies and chinese military's ended chinese. so in general, to muscle and other traditional house in the region, good to talk to benjamin manufactured for being with a spectrum and hush, which there in cambra. thank you. great. who were you here with the news off from out of here a still to come on the program ah. violence in the narrow streets of antibodies, jerusalem israeli ultra nationalists. take part in a provocative march. plus. i'm rob reynolds along the bank of the klamath river in northern california, where the biggest damn removal in us history will soon get underway. added sport, raphael madell sets up
1:12 pm
a quarter final with one of his oldest rivals at the french oak. the french foreign minister is visiting the ukrainian town of boucher where mass graves were discovered off to russian troops left. catherine calona saw an exhibit of photos documenting alleged war crimes. she also plans to meet president vladimir zalinski. let's go life now to key. if out as you are saying, burke was ravi, is that what else is the french foreign minister going to be doing while she's there? say well, ever since becoming the new foreign minister of france, this is her 1st major visit her 1st trip and it is a major one to ukraine of all places. it is an important one to help to try to reset relations with the government here and keep. and i say that because throughout this conflict, france has tried to strike more of a balance and is diplomacy between russia and ukraine in this war?
1:13 pm
ukrainians have perceived that as france being far more pro russia for its liking. so what we're seeing here is a visit by the new french foreign minister, an opportunity to reset that relationship. she was here, she said to express solidarity and support, and specifically very crucially to have some very practical tangible conversations about what has become a global food security crisis. ukraine is an incredibly important country in the global food supply chain, a major export of grain and wheat oil seed. and these are exactly the kinds of conversations we're expecting for. the french foreign minister have with her counterpart, as well as president for laudermill zelinski to try and help to get those exports out of the country. and even though friends has tried to strike that balance with russia, ukraine, that is something that might work in their advantage. now if they try to negotiate with russia to get russia to unclench its fist around ukrainian ports that have been blocking ukraine from getting any exports,
1:14 pm
any large scale exports of these kinds of food supplies out of the country. we also saw that she visited boucher, the town, just the city, just north of keys that became one of the most brutal examples of russia's conflict, rushes invasion of this country. the massacre at boucher was specifically very brutal and very highly, very well documented here in ukraine. she paid her respects and visited the cathedral at boucher, the sight of a mass grave where the victims of the russian occupation were buried. and again, she expressed her solidarity and support for the ukrainian people. and no doubt, this very public visit is likely to go a long ways to resetting that relationship with ukraine. president finance keys, i traveled outside of the cave region for the 1st time since that russia's invasion . what's the latest on the fighting? yeah, that's exactly right. i want to talk to you a little bit about what's happening in the east. it's
1:15 pm
a patchwork of violence and towns and villages. daily death tolls in the dozens. but it's really hard to track because it is all up and down the east of ukraine. it is a very large swap of land, but what we are seeing is that the spotlight currently from the ukrainian side as well as the russian side is on the city of separate the next. now this is one of the 2 places in the hans region which makes up half of the don bus region that is currently in ukrainian hands. and a fierce fight is going on for control of servers. and that's the expert analysis is that it's only a matter of time until russia is able to take it, and thereby other places and control the whole of the hunts region. that same expert analysis says that it's unlikely to yield any long term strategic value for russia, but it's coming at a high price in both russian and ukrainian lives, russian, ukrainian military assets. we've also heard that iraq ukrainians have lost a counter offensive in care song that is enjoying some success. russian forces have
1:16 pm
re mobilized to try to reinforce their lives in care so which may take pressure off other parts of the eastern battlefront presidency. lensky in one of his latest statements said something very interesting. you said that 90 percent of separate jeanette had experienced some level of damage, 90 percent of the buildings there. and that would illustrate that russia is simply railroading and steam rolling all over the places that it aims to quote unquote liberate. but from the president side, he thinks he's already thinking ahead and trying to focus on rebuilding. and that was one of his main messages in a surprise visit to car key, the country 2nd largest city, just on sunday, just yesterday. about the despite the secrecy, despite heavy security, a surprise visit a car key ukraine. second largest city is for a leader who was at the very top of russia's kill list at the start of the war. at the very least,
1:17 pm
a calculated risk president vladimir zelinski personally surveying the damage made it clear. it's never too soon to begin rebuilding when it's 90 d change show or she could mean we have to find some money and credit lines. the state must provide guarantees, and cities must find super projects and find the money. because in the cities, governors and mayors are more likely to find one or another european program for housing construction, some state programs and some local programs. this is a chance, a chance to give a new look to such districts just son he even went to the front line to inspect ukrainian positions, and met with soldiers stationed in and around the city, handing out awards and service metal. no, miss lives. i want to thank you you for your service, you risk your life for all of us and for our state. thank you for defending the independence of our country. take care of yourself,
1:18 pm
glory to ukraine. a trip meant to project strengthen, raise morale, to a place that is still very much a front line in this war. a 3rd of the city remains in russian hand. an area is not occupied by russian forces come under regular attack. just hours after he left there were missile strikes on the 2nd. the ukrainian president has won widespread admiration for his war time, leadership at home and from allies in the west, which he is hoping translate into more long range heavy weapons. and soon zelinski, his 1st visit outside the cave region comes as russian forces continue to pummel cities in the east and south. as part of the russian forces objective to try and consolidate as many gains as possible in the dunbar region. and as ukrainian forces plan and prepare to mount counter offensive to try and stall and possibly push back
1:19 pm
what has been an unrelenting russian advance. zane bas robbie, olga 0, keith, a former rebel fight has come out on top in columbia's presidential election. but gustavo, petro didn't win enough votes to avoid a run off against his right wing challenge up. alexander, appear to report stop from bartow. ha, it's an historic result for a leftist candidate in columbia. but more than 8 and a half 1000000 votes from a rebel fighter, gustavo faith, rocking clearly and top in the 1st round of the presidential elections running on the promise of profound economic and social change. metro managed to get 40 percent of the vote. 10 percentage short of what he needed for an outright victory. oh, coronel cambia will come. you schism. there are changes that are empty. there are changes that don't lead to real change. we want to invite all of colombia in society to embrace real change. yet his success was diminished by the surprised 2nd place of her adult fernandez. a 77 year old businessman who rose in the polls in
1:20 pm
the last 2 weeks as an unexpected anti corruption. crusader o hidden and this a former mayor of the city of bouquet. a manga managed to present himself as an alternative anti establishment candidate. despite being investigated himself for a number of wrong doings. he has been compared to a colombian version of trump. and in the past said he was an admirer of others, hitler. yet his message connected with many frustrated columbian voters in a campaign mostly conducted on social media. or he saw a moscow, you know, alone. we see that citizens have the will to incorruption as a system of government. today, the country of cheap politics and corruption lost the corrupt to thought they would govern forever. last. federico gutierrez, the defeated candidate, backed by the traditional establishment, immediately endorsed hernandez for to run off against what he calls the dangers of
1:21 pm
a petra's presidency. rosemary mandates is potentially tetanus. we're site now. alexa pedro campaign was fairly confident that giving a round when he called a what a one given that he had has his strong association with the right with him, little establishment. the whole situation changes now given his anti establishment discourse, his origins, outside of politics, his most clearly an outsider. the main takeaway here is that these results represent, 1st and foremost, a stunning blow to columbia traditional conservative establishment. the question for gustavo federal though is that if he now will be able to convince enough people that voted for those for it man this, that he represents the true change that columbia needs allison, that i'm p at the, i'll just see it over to the u s president has promised action on gun control back to meeting grievance. parents in texas. as john hendrick reports from alder,

1:36 pm
i think it's is my duty and responsibility at this time i support people struggle in any way. we can, i didn't want to give correct directions to the statement he gunman, pakistan's new government is facing mounting public anger of a rising inflation. the country may default for the 2nd time in his history. if the government can't agree with the i m f a $6000000000.00 deal, i'll just, he was come, i'll hide our reports now from islam about less than 2 months after shabba should have bought sworn in the country's prime minister. he addressed kid nation for the 1st time and said that he was forced to increase the prices of fuel by 20. but then, because of the conditionality employed by the international monetary fund budget on right now is facing the highest inflation rate in asia. we're doing it just behind it, a lanka, and i did an alarming train. it got it right and fuel prices relate to escalating
1:37 pm
prices at the time when the country only has then point $2000000000.00 read up, which is less than 2 months. so import bed bugs gone of got it looking for help from china. that agreement didn't to work, but the next 2 months will be critic good and it is considerable anger at a cross budget on. oh, what did doug explanation and prices, he will prices all, all of his impact, the poor, the people who are living under the forward, the line and the people in the middle class and the lord douglas suffer from it. so the price, i think, is a very, very good, a judgment from the government and the are backing of the government still has some hard while gaining a head when it comes to the dogs with the international monetary fund. but it also said that the subsidies were put in place by the previous government and that the government had no other choice. but to remove them, dounia may, per, drawn,
1:38 pm
the price of fuel across the globe to skyrocketing with old producers and developed countries under huge strain. but unfortunately, among the form of government for their own political gain has announced a subsidy at a time when there is no room for it in pakistan's treasury holiday. bo, john and that of god will mean that the opposition, which is being led by enron font, is likely to add to the problems because buckets dawn can not afford political instability at that time. like this when this economy is in dire straits. now the previous government had, they agreed with the international monetary fund for the $6000000000.00 loan. half of that was fade. $900000000.00 drawn for left by the i m f objected because the previous government had 4 subsidies on energy, such as the electricity and gas, and also fuel prices. the i m f of got there that don't subsidy and have to go in
1:39 pm
