there is also the specter of china imposing its military mike on taiwan and trying to made that very clear by releasing a map of its plans of these large scale drills that it's planning to do from august 4th to the 7. then this map shows these live fire drills that are due to take place that even fly by possibly if i want their space, which is unprecedented, that will be taking place during those day said that map is also shown that china drill to come very close and impede on time, once territorial water is coming, close to tie one soil, just about 16 kilometers the way. so people here and i want to watching is very closely and trying to make a sense of nancy pelosi. this is on the one hand, it's given title and legitimacy, and one people have seen that that support from the us. but on the other hand, while it's huge on symbolism, they also feel that perhaps there could have been more substance to its top

a desire to prove to everyone there impunity and to exercise permissive in us. i do what i want, something like that. i see no other reason to create such an annoyance, almost out of the blue. knowing very well what it means for the people's republic of china on our, from alzheimer's, tony chang in bangkok on that visit. sir g, a lover of russia's foreign minister, arrived in me amongst capital navy door on wednesday for talks with his counterpart . and he asserted that the relationship between mamma and russia was strong. there's a relationship that has got stronger since last year's military coup, which has seen high level delegations passing between man ma, am russia, including the defense minister being violated to man mos on forces day as the guest of honor? mamma has also seen in russia a seller of arms and weapons, including high powered jets, which it's using to fight against insurgents and rebels that oppose its rule. not

only in the board areas, but also in central men. but it's a difficult time for me and foreign me to ministers. shem asha and have been meeting in the cambodian capital non pen of issued statements suggesting the rejection of their 5 point piece plan to try and bring and mom back into the fold with the execution of 4 political prisons. a couple of weeks ago is unacceptable. this elaborate will be visiting for non pan later in the week, may be in the rather strange position of carrying a message from your mas generals to their neighbors. all the 5000 indonesia and u. s. and other troops, a holding a joint military training exercise until august 14th. the annual drill is expected to be the biggest yet and will include 14 countries. they've been held every year since 2009. the u. s. and it's asian allies have expressed growing concern over china's increasing influence in the pacific. but washington says the drills aren't

smaller neighbors including tim or let's say, or east timor, and popping your guinea as well. and the reason it is significant to note those observers is that last year at that time, it was the, the largest iteration of these router shield exercises. last year. japan was an observer. now they have gone on to become a full participant in these exercising exercises early today. they participated in some power trooping training just held here in san sumatra. so of course, at this iteration of garrett, a shield is being called super gruder shield because it is so much larger than exercises that have been held in the past. earlier today at the opening her ceremony, we heard from general charles flinn, who noted that these exercises are taking place place in the most consequential region at the most consequential time. and while this might be the super grid us shield, they hope that next he has versions or future future iterations may be even more significant cost grain cargo ship to leave. you cram since the russian invasion to
