trying to launch as its biggest military drills in the seas near taiwan the hours after you as how speak nancy pelosi left the island. ah. hello the whole robin you're watching. i was there like, well headquarters here in denver, also coming up, 3 killed, renewed fighting between all media and azerbaijan, sparked by the disputed nicola cutter back region u. s. president joe biden signs executive older. all the bullshit, making it easy for women to travel between states for the procedure and warnings that social media platforms in kenya a spreading hate speech and disinformation ahead of a general election. ah, welcome to the the chinese military is conducting live ammunition drills the taiwan

strait. just a day after us house speaker, nancy pelosi ended her controversial visit to to pay the drills are encircling the island tie. one says china. chinese naval ships and military aircraft have made several incursions into its territorial waters. a senior chinese diplomat described posies trip as manic, irresponsible, and irrational. the series of drills are focused in 6 exclusions. veins surround taiwan, 3 of the zines overland areas where taiwan says a part of its territorial waters and in some places just 20 kilometers of shore. the drills include long range light, i munition shooting into the taiwan strait. china has warned that all vessels or should avoid the area for 72 hours, maybe half of the global contain the fleet passes through this waterway every year . we'll try to foreign ministry has address policies trip to tie one than it's accused. washington, a stirring up trouble in the region. to me make was sure,

hoping that said apple headed the u. s. is the biggest saboteur of peace in the taiwan strait and the biggest troublemaker of regional stability issues. that is the asia indo pacific strategy that is highly confrontational and dangerous. it shows the hypocrisy and double standards of the united states of the international rules and of china does not resist us, recklessness and irresponsibility, and lack of rationality than respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity. this principle of international relations will just become empty words, separatists and extremists will only re double their baldness, why the peace and stability that has been hard won in this region will be seriously jeopardized. straight counselor, wang ye said that this incident was single handedly orchestrated and caused by the us and the merits. and the cause and consequences are crystal clear into china. has john, what is diplomatically possible to the maximum extent to avoid this crisis imposed

on china. but we will not tolerate any harm to our core interests and the national reach of the nation. so we will not just sit by and watch the united states play the taiwan card and serve its own domestic politics and selfish interests of some politicians. balance of clothes, he is now in south korea where she met the speaker of the national assembly. kim jim pill. tony chang is tracking the latest developments for us from bangkok and tony. i mean the foreign ministry in beijing, not really buying the distance. the white house is trying to make between it and the policy visit beijing as obviously been very angry on thursday morning again. it has and i think it's going to continue to, to be very angry for some time to come at it. it really depends whether you see the, the statements coming from the white house sort of trying to distance themselves as, as really highlighting a difference between joe biden and nancy pelosi or whether this is just some kind

of tactic for them to make this slightly easier for the chinese to swallow it, it clearly has in words you're hearing a lot of the, this very fiery rhetoric coming out of beijing or so coming out of chinese diplomats around the world, you know, talking about the need for reunification and time one the, the need to re educate the taiwanese people in faith in some cases. and i think we are going to see, you know, a very unified wave of chinese diplomacy very angrily condemning the visit. and as you say, we've got those ongoing military exercises their scheduled to last until sunday. possibly even extended to monday, which think o in a show, a very significant sign of chinese fire power in what is effectively a complete blockade around taiwan. nonetheless, nancy pelosi has moved on. she's made her point really remains to be seen. what

chain is actually going to do? a lot of this may well be for the consumption of the chinese domestic audience. who feel it that taiwan taiwan unification is, is a very precious issue for the chinese. so it may be to a certain extent the beijing is engaged in damage control at the moment. of course, the ongoing chinese exercise continue a or around taiwan. don't the yes sir. and where there are 6 places which really surround the island and to a certain extent, if you wanted to look at china's plan for how it might consider taking bag taiwan. well, this is a very good example of how that might do that. they've deployed forces all around the island. we understand at various points today that navy ships have crossed the median line. that is, the sort of unofficial line where the taiwanese navy and the chinese navy regard

the division of their territory. although officially, of course, china regards the suit as all of their space. we also understand from the time when these military, the chinese rockets have been fired through time when he's air space. so i think it's going to be, you know, over the next 48 hours, if i log into the we can, you know, this is going to continue. we're going to see a china showing in its largest maritime exercises ever, that, that really, really has the capability to take bag taiwan if it wanted to. and that's the message. i think they're trying to convey to their domestic audience. but what are they really going to do? i think that's the question and to a certain extent, i think you want to look at what's going on in taiwan itself. life is going on very much as normal. i think they had anticipated this the time. when is authorities? i think you're prepared for some of those incursions. they have scrambled military jets over the last 24 hours to try and monitor those chinese planes that have come

into the what they regard as their territory. but at this stage, they don't seem to be to panic or continue to monitor events in the region with you, tony, as the day progresses tele, checking the force in bangkok. well, in the wake of nancy plays, he's taiwan trip. foreign ministers from the region have express concern about the possibility of open conflict between major powers. delegates from the 10 member i see and blog holding talks, income dady is capital ministers say that concerned volatility could lead to miscalculations and that urging maximum restraint. well, the crisis in memo is also on the sienna gender representatives from the military judge to have refused to attend the meeting, that the states had said, the block may reconsider its policies towards me and my father louis has more from put on time. in fact, we heard the cambodian prime minister who incense his country's also chair of the ozzy and the rotating are the in championship,

say the situation in the appears to be deteriorating. and he was referring to the recent execution of for democracy activity coming so soon after who's in self made a personal lee on their behalf of execution. not to go ahead. and of course, he's also referring to the situation in the, on the way, in some places it's descended to and warfare where the military has escalated its response, particularly in rural areas where there's also frequent internet blackouts, more than 11000 people have been detained. more than 2000 people have been killed off, it's quite clear that the audience lead piece plan that was agreed to by the june in april last year is not working. and that's the reason why the foreign minister of me and i wasn't invited to argue my wasn't that invited send a non political representatives, but they have declined to do so. now what's not here though is how to move forward on audience, on, on the, on that doesn't seem to be any sort of unity. there are some calls for our the,

into engage with the national unity government. that's the shadow, civilian government, all me on mom. but doesn't seem to be taking any concrete steps towards that direction. and of course, what complicating matters is the level of support that is getting from the authoritarian powered china, russia and china and russia made a very pointed show of that support by having its foreign minister. so gay lover, visit men on hand. gentle leader in navy door on wednesday that has been renewed fighting between our media and as a by john the only disputed the corner color bar region. armenia says it last 2 fighters, one as the by johnny soldier, was also killed. the 2 countries have been locked in a decades old dispute for the territory inside as a by john mccormick. harbor is misty, controlled by ethnic armenians, but also by john sees parts of it. after conflict in 2020 were june rooster federal, others in on august 3rd, members of illegal armenian armed groups in the territory of azerbaijan,

baghdad. he put to rest all speculations, ever ongoing. here, over the past few days that there was a lot of behind the scenes, a meetings taking place and that eventually he would join a dialogue process. but certainly that is not going to happen. as he said, what is critical now is whether or not the various other factions within the government will accept his call. and there is no really functioning government at the moment after the elections that were held last october. since there are other instructed his m p, 's, 73 of them to withdraw in june. the country has been in limbo. so the question now is whether the other sides will accept the fact that there should be another election health. the next process that will come is the speaker, parliament would have to basically dissolve parliament and then they will have to announce new election. it is unclear what the other side that will be involved in this. i will have to say in the coming hours, we'll have to wait and see,
