who germany says it's foiled a far right plot to overthrow its government. $25.00 people including a soldier and a judge, have been detained and brides at $130.00 sides across the country. a russian national is among the detainees. a former german army officer has also been arrested in italy, the so called like citizens were allegedly preparing to force their way into the parliament will dominate kind, joins me now from berlin. and dominic, this is clearly a huge police operation. what more can you tell us about it? we know that some 3000 officers have been involved in this operation. 25 people arrested. but another 27 or so people who are of interest to the police, to the authorities. and this is an ongoing operation. and we expect to find more details, find out more details that is from federal prosecutors. in the course of this hour,
4:03 pm
we've heard already from some prominent politicians, the interior minister in bavaria calling this one of the most stain jurors, things that has happened amongst the far right in recent years and debunking the conspiracy theories. he says that this group has adhered to the interesting thing. when you look at the details of some of the individuals who have been arrested. well, that judge is actually somebody, a judge on the berlin judicial district who circuit rather who was a member of parliament until the most recent election at now is accused of plotting to overthrow that parliament, the so called the ringleader allegedly of this organization. this group is in his seventies, comes from a minor noble family from back when, when germany was an imperial country. and that's key to this because remember they call themselves the heis boerger. and they want to, sir,
4:04 pm
return to the germany that ruled this country in the time from 1871 to the end of the 1st world war. they believe that modern democratic germany does not represent that state and needs to be overthrown. that's the view of the iceberg movement, but as a say, will be finding out more details about these individuals in the, our, to come in a rush of national as among those who has been detained. how concerned add german or authorities about russia's involvement potentially in this? well, the thing to say straight away is the mid sleeper scarf, who has the spokes person for the kremlin has said there can be no question of any russian interference involvement in this affair. and that russia found out about this from reading the news. so that is the view from the kremlin. it is alleged certainly that some of the rumors, the speculation that has surfaced to day regarding these arrests that this supposed
4:05 pm
ring leader hi english ice, was in connection with another individual trying to get in contact with russian officials to see what sort of support there might be if and when they're a parent, a legit, coo were successful. as i say, the most important thing to remember here is that the official view from the kremlin is to deny any involved whatsoever. and so there's no question of any interference. certainly, if one looks at the background to this, there is some speculation going on about the deep state involvement, this idea of deep state. we've heard that before in the united states of america, this idea of a government within a government, as it were, she's suggested that sort of ideologically, either excuse me, ideology applies here as well, although we have yet, as i say, to hear from the prosecutors whose job it will be to build
4:06 pm
a case against those 25 people who they've arrested. ok. dominant kane, thank you very much for that update from berlin. the china has announced its loosening its 0 covert policy. people who are asymptomatic or showing mild symptoms will now be able to isolate at home. the government is also reducing mandatory testing requirements. the move comes after widespread protests against locked downs and mass testing. it's a major reversal in a country that's imposed. some of the toughest pandemic measures in the world's. the beam to her, she vizier, showed her the further deepening of the understanding of the virus and the disease, the reduction of the risk of the disease. you the efficient supply of vaccines and medicine, and the improvement of emergency response and treatment capabilities are some of the required conditions or key elements for us to resume the living conditions before the outbreak happened. andrew k, p long is a china strategist. he says the 0 covert policy was not designed to ensure 0 covert
4:07 pm
cases. it is a design to implement earliest possible detection early as possible. ready isolation, earliest possible. ready possible prevention and early as possible q and in fact, that strategy had been relatively successful. compare with other countries. according to a recent, independent survey conducted by new york based will be now a research institute called the element trust. so being all countries on the world in response to the government's ability to cope with the pandemic and it came up tops, but it's been 2 years and paid people's patients are very thing. and as president c, i recently met the visiting european union president face to face in
4:08 pm
beijing. said to him that he realized that there was a lot of impatience on the part of the people. and he's responding to it. and also another factor is the pandemic. now change to be more like and then make it even though more serious than approve it, even though it can be a relative, be more deadly than a fool. but again, comparison with the early stages is, is to, is change quite significantly enhanced. and this relaxation, chinese president shing ping is due to arrive and saudi arabia for a 3 day visit. he was invited by king solomon who wants to deepen relations. china is the gulf nation's largest trading partner with goods worth $87300000000.00 exchanged last year. saudi arabia is china's biggest oil supplier. it since nearly $44000000000.00 and crude to the asian country in 2021. the oil market is expected
4:09 pm
to dominate the talks. it comes as a price cap on russian exports imposed by the g $7.00, e. u, and a strategy. it takes effect bullets, bring in victor gao. he is vice president of the center for china and globalization . and he joins us from beijing, thank you very much for being on al jazeera. now obviously this is a very important relationship for both countries. so we'll start with china. what do you think they will be wanting to get out of this visit? thank you very much. of all president she doing being is going to 3 major events. one is the state visit to a kingdom of saudi arabia. then attending the china gulf states, somebody meeting and then china, arab state summits. now all these 3 events are milestone events in china's diplomacy with the gulf countries with the arab countries and with the kingdom of saudi arabia. china attaches great importance to these 3 groups of countries and
4:10 pm
not only in terms of energy corporation, but in terms of trade and also mutual respect to treating each other as equals for example, and also sheree that desire for a multi lateral world. therefore, no matter in which category of things we are talking about, the relations to be further strengthened by the state with it, by the summit, with the gulf countries of the summit with the arab countries will be truly landmark miles stall events. obviously, uh, oil is going to be a major topic on the agenda. saudi arabia is china is biggest oil supplier. what do you think china would be looking to secure when it comes to oil, especially in relation to, i guess the, the war in ukraine and how that is impacted the world's oil supply? well, oil is
4:11 pm
a major factor in china. saudi arabia relations as well as with state relations and for the whole are of world energy corporation itself is a very important thing. now, from the chinese perspective, energy security is a key component of security for any country, especially for a country like china, china depends on imported oil up to more than 70 percent of the oil consumes. so you can see china deals with all your security with utmost importance. therefore, for saudi arabia to be such a steady and reliable and long term supply of crude oil to china is something very much appreciate it. now, on the other hand, china is also one of the largest supplier of goods of all kinds, especially oil related goods, pipelines and all the other things. china is also very much committed to working on major connectivity projects with saudi arabia. with many are countries. for example,
4:12 pm
also a 50 in the infrastructure project channel also provides a lot of service to these countries in a variety of sectors involved. further, i think, equally, if not more importantly, china and saudi arabia, gulf states, and our country is treat with each other as equals and we share our commitment for a mark let will will really refuse to allow any country to impose its version of the true values on to any one of us, we want to have a system where each of us will have the freedom to pursue our own values, cultures and systems. rather than having them imposed on us in the sense china and punches of coverages. and in particular, the kingdom of saudi arabia, on the same page. therefore, i'm pretty optimistic, president, she did base visit to saudi arabia and his others in the summit meetings will bring
4:13 pm
their relations to an meal height in the cubby. yes. you said that both countries want to be treated as equals, is that a slight, against the us? obviously relations between saudi arabia and the us and china in the us have, i guess, soured recently, or is that, is there that concern that china isn't treated as an equal by the us. and that's why they want to strengthen the relationship with saudi arabia. without naming any country by name, it is obvious that in the world of today, there is one big country which wants to hold itself out as if it's in possession of the truth of the total truth. actually, there is no absolute truth in the possession of any country. i think all of us want to have a better way of life. we want to keep to our own political systems, values,
4:14 pm
et cetera, et if there is any country which holds itself out as if it is in possession of the correct system and others don't have the correct system. all don't have the values in life or their own national conditions also because does is, that's not the world we want to live in. we want to make sure every country below small need to develop its own system and values. and i think between china, saudi arabia, between china, the gulf states and china and the are cultures. this is actually the most important thing. this is in my view more than crude oil, natural gas, because without demonstrating commitment to treat each other as equal, you actually don't have a solid foundation upon which you build your political relations or economic or trade relations. now, you mentioned that china, china is the largest, the comedy by budgeting, power parity, china is the 2nd largest economy. if we use
4:15 pm
a visual exchange rate. china is a factor in the world of today, but no one can afford to ignore. this is what china, and this is how we want to embrace the rest of the world. and this is why we want to treat with the kingdom of saudi arabia or the gulf states. and i have the great fortune of visit each of the gulf states and the arab world as a whole, to treat each other as equal. and to the extent possible, we treat each other as brothers and sisters. rather than, for example, look down upon any of these countries and try to believe that my system is better than yours. and i have the audacity of the poles in my system on you. that's not the way that's not the chinese way. okay, thank you very much. for that, that as victor gal, vice president of the center for china and globalization, thank you. thank you for having me. while there is plenty more ahead on the news hour, including, well they were banned from high schools for more than a year. now afghan girls being told they should take exams. now jan tina's vice
4:16 pm
president, christina de kirschner, is sentenced to 6 years in prison. guilty of corruption in a $1000000000.00 fraud case. ah, in the us democrats have tightened their grip on the senate after rafael warnock defeated republican challenger, herschel walker in georgia, or knox. victory in the run off means. democrats will have 51 seats in the 100 seat chamber. the 2 candidates were separated by less than one percent of the vote. and last month, midterm election. well from all its or bring in our white house, correspondent kimberly held kit. and kimberly, seeing as the democrats already had a majority in the senate, does this actually change anything? well, they didn't have majority of the senate. what they had was an even split with the
4:17 pm
vice president having to shuttle down to a capitol hill every time there was a need to break a tie vote. and so what this means moving forward is that she'll be able to free up her travel plans. she won't have to do that anymore because now i come january, there will be a clear majority, as you pointed out, the $5149.00 split in favor of the democrats in the upcoming $100.00 and 18th congress, the u. s. president, celebrating and congratulating the incoming senator who has been, we should point out sitting in that seat or, and defeating herschel walker, who was the donald trump back candidate. we do know that rafael warnock did get an enormous amount of outside money from outside roofs. in fact, we know not just was their record turn out, but some $80000000.00 in the last 4 weeks was just spent on tv adverts alone. as
4:18 pm
democrats tried to secure this seat, it was that important because what this means now is that the president can try and move ahead with his legislative agenda. so come january here is what the map looks like in the us congress. we've got the house of representatives, the lower chamber controlled by republicans, but, and just narrowly, we've got the upper chamber, the senate controlled by the president's democrats. and we've got the president himself a democrat here in the white house. essentially, this means there's going to be a bit of legislative gridlock. so all eyes are now going to be focused on 2024 and the presidential election. but this is good news for democrats, they believe because they went into these mid terms, thinking that this was going to be a bloodbath. that republicans were going to sweep the u. s. congress. that wasn't the case. instead, what this is a runoff election in georgia shows that this was typically a republican state. democrats were able to capture it, and this means that this bodes well for president bite. and when he tries to run
4:19 pm
for reelection in 2024, that will come round to before we know, i thank you very much, this. kimberly help kit. what house correspondent before me, you as president donald trump's company has been found guilty of tax fraud in new york. it incident murray of legal was facing trump as he campaigns for office. again. mike, hannah has moved from washington, dc has a major financial implication for the trump organization. these crimes of tax evasion went on for some 15 years. and although the fine itself may not be that substantial, that will be divided at decided by the judge. in january, he'll announce exactly what the fine is, but the economic impact on the organization will be substantial. obviously, it's going to reflect its relationship with banks with other lenders, with other companies in terms of its ongoing attempts to do business. at this, at the judgement is likely to reflect very negatively on the trump organization as
4:20 pm
a whole. but for donald trump himself, it's just adding to his long list of legal woes. one must remember that there's a separate case pending against donald trump in his organization. wrought by the new york attorney general that is pending, and even more seriously is the investigation being conducted by the department of justice into 2 elements. one is donald trump, so taking documents from the white house to his mar logo estate. and how serious was the misuse as its put of classified documents? the other issue that the attorney justice department is investigating is trump's attempt to overthrow the 90 at 2020 election. so this is now just another in the long list of legal problems facing donald trump. urgent in his vice president, christina de krishna has been sentenced to 6 years in prison. she was convicted of
4:21 pm
corruption and a $1000000000.00 fraud case. theresa both reports from paula saudis. oh d. so, so borders of christina fernandez, the cushion who came to the federal court building in when a site is to protest against argentina's judiciary cushion, who was sentenced to 6 years in prison. and given a lifetime ban on holding public office after being found guilty of corrupt and it's a 1st time and argentinean vice president has been convicted of a crime wellston office following follow me, lena lee assess. kirschner is a victim of political persecution, to log again, and it is the same. so what they want to do is get her out of politics in a good way or a bad way. they fail to kill her, and now they have this option. 3 months ago, kirshner was the target of an assassination attempt. when a man pulled the trigger of his hand gun inches from her face as she greeted supporters, the gun failed to fire. on tuesday,

4:23 pm
a judicial mafia. christina hernandez, the curtain was argentina's president for 8 years between 2750. it is now this country's vice president. she's an advisor bigger in this country, while there are many who continued to some water there many others would like to see her in prison. kirshner is expected to appeal against the court's decision. despite her conviction, she has congressional immunity and is unlikely to have to jail any time sooner. she doesn't pick waterbury, so i'll just eat at one aside. if the telephone is allowing ask n girls to take high school graduation exams. this week, girls and middle school and high school have been banned from classroom since the group took power in august last year. the latest decision reportedly applies to 31 of afghanistan's 34 provinces. but some students say the exams and fear because girls had been shut out of school for so long as well now. so i did that. my name

awarding themselves $90000.00 as a reward. but the speedy resolution of the crime, and even though the case has resumed, the verdict isn't expected for several years. of course we have to regard to the driver to weaken, but at the same time we have to keep some kind of legal protection in terms of procedure to the defendant as well. but that takes time. the attack on the arrow and shrine with the worst bomb the entire history. yet 7 years on the still no clear answer. the question who is behind the attack or who are they target? and the victims still struggling with injuries and members want answers. when that time is getting any closure passed a long time ago, it's so long that i don't feel like i need to know it. but job want to know. yes i

4:36 pm
a more sentimental and more nostalgic bid. knowing that the final wouldn't be in the place where the 1st final was played almost a 100 years ago. if you look at that date. so it's going to be very difficult. i think it'll be very, very, very complicated for them to be able to get that bid. but he said he was a very emotional and exciting night, especially from iraq and fast. but no one got quite as emotional as that, the moroccan commentator joe, either better have a listen to this. i. yes, i got this, i saw a

4:39 pm
now it's 2026 cars. so what is the, the us learn from how cats are going to write this? well talk well, let's face it, we have a slightly different geography. of course. you know, i mean, i don't think it's probably ever been the case where you could literally drive to a couple games the same day. you know, and i like in doha, which was, i just came back from there, which was, it was a fantastic experience. but obviously we're going to be geographically challenged in mexico and united states and in canada. but i'm sure, and i know that there's a lot of liaison with security issues with commercial issues between the 2 countries now. and you know, we just had the mayor of new york city just visited doha, of course, to the sort of take the temperature and figure out how he could be better prepared for the world cup. but like i'm, i'm super excited and i, you know, i think that other than the security other than the business lessons learned, that logistics is going to be slightly different because of course them the massive
