but she didn't get back on subsequent stories. the listening post doesn't cover the news. it covers the way the news is covered to suppress moderate. and in some cases amplify the content you seed on your final bill. if he post on al jazeera, ah ah, al jazeera, with the u. s. u k,

and australia or announced the latest stage of the deal for nuclear power submarines. ah, but i don't carry johnston this is out. is there a lot of also coming up? whitehouse approves an $8000000000.00 oil drilling project in alaska. a face is strong opposition from environmentalists at least $100.00 dead as psychos, freddy hit something with now in mozambique plus stopping the bias is my top priority u. k. parliament debates a bill aimed at curbing the numbers of asylum seekers who arrive on small boats. ah, australia is set to buy at least 3 u. s. manufactured nuclear submarines at a cost of $245000000000.00. i could eventually increase to 5 submarines and had

growing concerned around china's influence and in the pacific region announcement was made as us present. joe biden hosted the prime ministers of australia and britain in california from engine reports from that point. loma naval base in san diego. it is a bold effort to shift the balance of power in the pacific. the leaders of the u. s . the u. k. and australia cementing a plan to deploy nuclear powered submarines from the australian coast are unprecedented. trilateral cooperation. i believe is stretched over to the strength of the longstanding ties united's under our shared cubic auburn. sure, the end up with civic remains free and open. prosperous is secure. the plan will take decades to complete. the defense alliance called arcus, has already begun with the 1st of hundreds of australians embedding in u. s. and u. k. submarine building programs. more

u. s. subs will start visiting australia this year, while british subs will increase rotations from 2026 by 2030 to australia, plans to buy 3 nuclear powered subs containing conventional weapons from the us, with the option of buying 2 more. and sometime in the 20 forty's, australia expects to have its own nuclear, so built by the u. k. and australia using u. s. technology. the orchestra gray met we confirmed here in san diego represents the biggest single investment in australia's defense capability in all of our history. the biggest threat in the pacific comes from an increasingly aggressive china, which has built new fortifications in the south china sea. it's a situation that china has, has created and brought upon itself very much like go russia has it in the ukraine . china's gigi and paying his called the august plan, an effort to encircle and contain his country view as, as missouri. here is

a nuclear powered virginia class attacks of mine. the kind of us will send to australia is that country developed the capacity to build its own nuclear subs go longer, farther and faster than conventional subs. and that's a big advantage. the new fleet, replacing australia's aging diesel force requires the u. s. and u. k to boost their nuclear ship building capacity and to build one in australia from scratch. but ultimately, the defense of our values depends as it always has on the quality of our relationships with others. with china engage in its own submarine building program in flexing its muscles in the south china sea. the 3 english speaking august nations are betting that together. they can better counterbalanced the size of china's naval force. john henderson, al jazeera san diego, west coast now to sarah clark in brisbane, australia. so sarah, how significant is this agreement for australia in particular?

will anthony open easy as described as a new dawning for australia's defense policy? as mentioned, it's the largest defense acquisition in australia. is history with the cost of about $245.00 to $250000000000.00 or the next 3 decades. now i should know that this deal was a 1st announce under the last prime minister scott morrison, but that does mean is by that's will support in federal how much the pitch to the astray. an audience that the album easy giving on this day is that it will create around $20000.00 jobs across the industry, defense and public service that we've talked about. the 1st 3 american manufactured nuclear subs being the 1st off the ranks. but we're also took that a strongly getting involved in building these nuclear hybrid subs. now construction for though is, will begin and the design and development will begin in 2023. and as mentioned, i won't be on the water. we don't think until the end of next decade or 20 forty's . but the key reason and again,

the selling point to the australian audience from the strategy and government is that baseball boost defense intelligence sharing capacity. due to these 3 nations, the 3 navies sharing the same technology. it will take the government hoping that this agreement act will act as a deterrent to the increasing foreign threats that we have in the pacific. and of course, he's referring directly to china and it's encroaching military presence across the pacific. well, yes, you mentioned china. what about the impact that this may have on a straight his relationship in china? well, the last hour, so the strain government has confirmed that it has offered a briefing at to china, but it's yet to hear response from beijing. but china has been highly critical. when the fir, the details were 1st released of this trilateral security agreement, they said the deal constitutes serious nuclear proliferation risks. and it exacerbates at the arms race and it hurts pace and stability in the rage. and

they've also called for australia, u k, and the us to abandon what beijing calls the cold war mentality now of light, we've st. anthony ataleasy and shooting pain have meetings on the side line of the talk. so g 20 talks that was considered a positive after a decade of a turbulent relationship with china under the former prime minister scott morrison . i certainly we do expect now with the details of this august trilateral security agreement release. we do expect a potentially another turning point in that relationship, but as mentioned, it is at the largest defense acquisition in australia's history. sarah clark live in brisbin for us there. thank you. well, staying with this, let's bring in andy mont. now he's senior research fellow at the center for china and globalization. he joins us from beijing. welcome to the program. so is this move much of a surprise, really given us fears over a more assertive china? no, this unfortunately is not surprising at all. and i think largely, ah,

expected, but that being said, it's still is very deep stabilizing. and i think further evidence of the u. s. is anxiety and fear about a peacefully rising china given what is same and what is china's reaction likely to be then in the, in the medium to long term. i think this only strengthens the view ah, that has been articulated by presidency and things while the foreign minister that if the u. s. continues down this path, ah, it raises the risk of outright conflict. and of course, this is not good for china, but it's also not good for the us as well as we all know. the u. s. is economically intertwined with china, as are many other countries around the world. so these destabilizing actions really

are counterproductive, in many, many aspects. i mean, well, military hardware alone, the enough for this august aligns to succeed in its goals don't. that's such a great point. so the u. s. is in a sense, has one tool to play which is, are to use, which is it's military. what if we look at china's approach, of course it invest in is upgrading its military capabilities. but it is making significant gains on the diplomatic front. we need to look no further than the recent or on saudi arabia, rapprochement china's role in a ukraine peace plan initiatives in the pacific. that's one very, very important aspect. the economic aspect, of course, is very important as china ah, is offering an increasingly growing and sophisticated market to countries all around the world, including the united states. in terms of information as well. i think china,

we can see making advances in this area. perhaps the least developed so far, but certainly are advancing on all fronts. whereas i think the u. s. is perhaps overly relying on only a military approach to dealing with its anxieties and fears about china. and so how might this impact other areas of relations between china and these countries such as trade, for example, will it be some overlapping? i think certainly a china wants to have harmonious, productive bilateral relationships with countries around the world. and i think for australia and a great britain, this certainly complicates matters and i think especially for, for the united kingdom, which historically, least in recent years has not had a very significant military role in the asia pacific region. so again,

i think this is unhelpful and it's going to complicate things and remark, we very much appreciate your time. thank you. if you can re or so on monday, present by an approved or major oil drilling project in the us state of alaska. the $8000000000.00 plan led by oil giant clock of phillips has been strongly opposed by climate activists. they said undermines administration's pledge to slow climate change. approval comes a day after the government announced limits on oil drilling in 16000000 acres in alaska. and the arctic ocean on project could produce up to 180000 barrels of oil a day according to the company. that's more than 600000000 barrels of crude, over 30 years extracting and using that oil could produce more than 278000000 tons of greenhouse gases over the projects 30 year life. willow is the largest proposed oil drilling plan on us public land and the biggest oil field in alaska for decades

. where we graph is deputy managing attorney for the earth justice alaska regional office. he says these large scale projects lock in that carbon emissions that add to climate change. this administration has done a law for climate, but this undermines things seriously and is a big disappointment. it's projected to produce over 570000000 barrels of oil. releasing 260000000 metric tons of covered backside. so that's like putting 56000000 cars on the road for a year or 69 coal fired power plants earning for one year. these types of emissions are ones that we cannot afford if we're going to avoid the worst in climate change. and the project like the willow project is meant

to go on for 30 years. so it locks in these carbon emissions, which we can afford today. well into the future and as a result, there's just no room in the open budget for these types of mega projects allow, it has declared the state of disaster after partial storm hit the country for 2nd time. in less than 3 weeks tropical cyclone freddy unleashed more powerful winds and torrential rain over the weekend. least 100 people have been killed in the law in neighboring mozambique. cyclone 1st hit southern africa last month. it's the longest lasting storm of its kind on record. in the southern hemisphere, meaning what young women in her muscles when it was to bed in the night. but now that it is day time, i can feel the loss. i have never seen something as terrible as this. my neighbor's house is all organic. the family members are gone, they are missing. in some cases the father is alive,

but the wife and the children are gone. blind will get out, right. what is it? i'm helping to find the victims. i knew there are more bodies that are still buried so far between 20 and 20. 5 bodies been recovered from the debris and ruined houses . most of them have been very to the hospital, but they all looked dead. i think. okay, parliament has been debating a bill aimed at curb in the numbers of asylum seekers who arrive on british shores in small boats when you lower will ban migrants from returning to the u. k. claiming asylum, or seeking british citizenship in the future. try angela takes a closer look now at the government's plan. oh, she ran high in parliament as the government, illegal migration built was debated for the 1st time. yet. we must control who comes into this country and the terms under which they remain here. that's why stopping the boats is my top priority. but objections came from in corners and

a housing the by she think the british public went to see pregnant women and children detained, an immigration detention center. i do not believe from one of the due process on nashville, under the new plaid migrants and refugees arriving on british shores in small boats on the back of trucks would be detained, the ported, and prevented from ever flaming asylum in britain. successful asylum seekers like called by thea housey who fled tortured central africa, says the proposed law would be a death sentence for many disputed or disloyal wooden. wooden stove. me in my journey, in my goal of safety, in an protection. and what probably would, would done is just creating even more trust or a journey for me to take. and i wouldn't know exactly would i make it on or no, making all outside parliament protest his voicemail opposition to the proposals rights groups argue the law would break the un convention on refugees and other commitments. the u. k. has made to human rights many legal challenges lie ahead

and then there were the practical challenges with a backlog of a 160000 people waiting for an answer when they're assigned them. applications. detention centers already overflowing emergency accommodation in hotels costs $6000000.00 a day. the question is, where will the new arrivals be detained and how much would it cost? supporting on friday, britain signed a $577000000.00 deal with grants to boost surveillance and policing on french to intercept more boats before they leave and break the business model of the gang. but many want to see more investment into so called safe legal routes for those fleeing war and persecution. beyond parliament, more than $350.00 businesses, charities, unions, and legal groups have condemned the policy on a legal migration is cruel and unworkable. and that urging the government to

rethink the policy. but prime minister richie soon acts as he wants to push the bill through to become law. hopefully by august, charlie angela, our da 0 london to the head hair on al jazeera, where live in california from outside a branch of silicon valley bank. investors deal with a full out from it's class that's not an american caribbean, have been granted access to crucial satellites, a nation. we look at how to reach you putting it to use ah hello. we've got more wet weather, just making its way away from japan. now things will clear up, this is massive cloud here. all associated with this cold front that will sweep through and bright disguised communist that rary of high pressure just topples its

way further east with so some lovely spring like weather winds falling light, 16 celsius in tow. get a similar temperature, therefore, sol as well. a warm enough one there in patient for the time being 20 celsius before the batch around 13 degrees. still 5 and tries it. go on into weapons. stay a few wintry flurries up towards the far north east of china. and east side of russia, some share was a possibility and see southern parts of china over the next couple days. but nothing too widespread showers a little more extensive across central and southern parts of the philippines over the next day or so. still some really heavy rain around bornea. see some big down. pause here, which is where the started to push a little further waste was, but we will still see a few showers over towards that to western side of the a region, some showers to their into small ship at southern possibly peninsula large sheet. rice. lottie dry to across much of the south asia, we have got a scattering of showers across the plains. something to watch out for over the next

few days for pakistan is hot and dry. ah, the latest means as it breaks. so trump is still the favorite here among the grass roots and in many of the polls the be the republican presidential nominee with detailed coverage fire has swung the spotlight back on the struggles based on daily basis by everyone here from around the world. fire that and go to the 1st to cause of this trade was so hot. it may have cremated the victims exactly where they were killed. lou ah,

they're watching out here. reminder of our main store is the south australia is set to buy as many as 5 u. s. manufactured nuclear powered summaries. the growing concerned around china's influence in the pacific region announcement comes 18 months after australian u. s. m. a. u. k. formed a security alliance. activists have accused the biden administration of breaking a promise to slow climate change, often approve a major oil chilly project in alaska. bait $1000000000.00 will protest expected to produce around a $180000.00 barrels of oil a day. and a state of disaster has been declared in malawi after a powerful storm, hit the country for a 2nd time in less than 3 weeks. and freddy has cleaned the lives of more than a 100 people in malawi and laboring mozambique or stalks in sol and tokyo, opened sharply down on tuesday as investors consider the fallout from the collapse

of 2 u. s. banks and uncertainties over the federal reserves, monetary tightening. that's after us present, joe biden, try to reassure americans that the countries banking system is safe on the collapse of expenditure bank and silicon valley bank. biden says, customers and taxpayers won't bear any losses of moral miss holly. joe castro joins us from outside of silicon valley bank branch in santa clara in california. heidi despite the reassurances we've seen are people still worried about getting hold of their cash? kerry certainly that was the dominant fear over the last few days, people had the lining up here trying to get inside. worried that potentially especially for the startup companies, hundreds of millions of dollars, a deposits could potentially have evaporated overnight. well, that is not the case because of the intervention of the federal government that was announced over the weekend. now, all deposits here, even above the normal half

a quarter $1000000.00 limit, are insured by the federal government. that was the now spent at that president joe biden was speaking of earlier. they will be using fees paid by the banking industry to cover those deposits to make the customers of silicon valley bank whole. it will not be using taxpayer money. so you can see it's a much quieter. see now there are still many security guards who are in and outside of the bank, but we did not see any of those panicked customers as of days prior. this was an emergency and aggressive moved by federal regulators that has largely been greeted by industry, asked spurts and economists saying that it was the correct thing to do to quickly and aggressively stem the blood of these massive failures that happened in a row at earlier this week this is the 16th largest bank in the united states in operation for nearly 4 decades. and 4 to have so quickly,

and really just coming out of the blue to have collapsed like this over a matter of hours and days certainly shook people's confidence. and that is why biden and other lawmakers are so fast now to try to reassure americans that their deposits are safe. the priority now being to not cause a panic, not to have contingent spread to other financial institutes and her that in hindsight could more have been done to prevent this from. it does seem to have caught your forces by surprise. yeah, that is a difficult question. and reviews by the federal reserve have already been announced a loss to lawsuits by silicon valley bank. investors have also been announced looking at those questions, but what this bank is saying is that because of the greater economic climate, those interest rate interest rate hikes that we saw over the the last year in an effort to bring down inflation. while this may have been the unintended,

it was the unintended consequence. because small businesses, those tech startups that make up the base of customers as silicon valley bank, they were no longer had access to loans because of those higher interest rates. so they wanted their cash that was deposited here, they asked her of that cash and this bank could not meet the demand. they try to sell off it's long term investments. which adult where can came as a loss because of the decrease value of those investments. again, due to the interest rate increases, so it was the perfect storm. but what really caught people by surprise was that indeed, how quickly it went from 0 to 60, in a sense for this bank to announce that it could no longer guarantee access to funds. and for people to so quickly than have a run on this bank leading to this moment. now what they're doing is they're trying the federal regulators controlling silicon valley bank are looking for a healthier,

bigger bank to buy up its assets, to fix things. hopefully. and again, guarantee that any one with deposits here will have access to their money on the dra, castro. thank you. though in columbia present, gustavo petros government will start peace negotiations with a distant part of the falk rebel group. the distance reject to the piece to which all the fault levels accepted in 2016 butcher has fall to end decades of conflict. cassandra p a. t has more from bonito. this announcement means the government of president gustavo paper will now start a 2nd piece negotiation after the one that is already ongoing whit or national liberation army. the biggest remaining rebel group in the country, in this case. petra said that the negotiations will be with the so called the cincinnati my, your or central command. this is one of 2. this is

a group of former foreign rebels. need them are a group form of 5 rebels that decided to reject. they still feel that the park has signed with the colombian estate back in 2016. and this group, in particular, that has roughly between 1800 or 2000 armed. the members, if considered responsible for much of the apps upsurge in violence that columbia has seen in the last 2 or 3 years. as this group has been fighting both the lan and other, i'm groups and drug trafficking groups in particular in the south and the west of the country to control those territories. and in many cases, very important and very lucrative drug trafficking routes. but to you until i meet that practically hustled, the armed groups have entered into

a peace process with the government. today, we are missing the other house. that announcement came after the countryside attorney general francisco by the boys said earlier on monday that he was suspending the arrest warrant for 19 members of this. this is a group of the 5 to facilitate the talks, but he didn't put them into the prosecutor and some of the pieces of respect that the president has given political character to the dissidence who did not send if we are a c p agreement. and so those who say that agreement failed to comply with the channels, but not everybody i've freeze with the president when it comes to starting peace talks with these deleted groups. that's because a lot of people here consider that they already had their chance to negotiate with their government and rejected it. obviously, that's not the way of federal sees it infesting that best. and that is fundamental opportunity to reduce violence in the country and sort of complement and bring to

an end to the process that was started with the piece deal in 2016 european union is giving a latin american account of in access to its copernicus, satellite data, the portal offers information on murray time, environmental and security matters because even track the spread of diseases. the cl newman explains how the region will use the information from the northern at tacoma desert of chile, the european southern observatory, or esl observes outer space. but observing what happens on our own planet is just as important. the e use earth monitoring tool is called copernicus, a state of the art satellite data system. now thanks to a groundbreaking agreement with university of chile, the you will provide full free and open access to all its copernicus. data to latin america and the caribbean. copernicus can detect the existence of aerosols that

deplete the ozone layer. the melting of the ice caps corner to the quality and levels of our oceans gather data to facilitate alternative, green energy sources and information to warn in advance of the certification and deforestation. huge number of areas, actually only your imaginations sets the borders and it's really important for this information to travel into knowledge, to travel into action in order to fight climate change. while each vice president vested are, is a leading danish politician and former interior minister with a long history of fighting to reduce global warming. tiffany rick, when she was in fact the inspiration for the netflix block, buster of boardman. a danish series about the political concessions and issues of our times, including climate change with the sticker points out that forest fires are one of

the side effects of climate change. the copernicus system was used last month here to assist chilean and e, you, firefighters, and mapping the trajectory of aggressive wild fires. the you will facilitate its earth monitoring system to scientists, environmentalist, entrepreneurs and individuals in a region that has little data gathering capacity of its own. here you have it basically literally available at your fingertips. so that as a researcher, as a developer, as a business developer for that matter, you can see the trends and you can built your knowledge from thus the used decision to share this information with latin america mightn't just be for environmental reasons. this region is home to the world's most strategic minerals, including copper and lithium resources that china now dominates to see in human al jazeera santiago.
