8:04 am
a counter to growing threats from north korea and the expanding might of china. it's scary. i'll said, i'm scared to like everyone. we need the help of our neighbors. the japanese and our greatest alliance supported the united states, close ties between tokyo and so would also help washington's ambitions of main chaining a technological lead over china, such as in the production of strategically sensitive semiconductors. but japan, treatment of korean during world war 2, continues to cause anger here. the recruitment, it's no cold comfort women forced to work in military brussels, still brings out protesters once a week, while other groups have demanded the japan apologizes to compensate the victims of both labor. controversial. a youth has propose settling the issue by

8:06 am
but it wasn't sure if the collision was deliberate. she ever can see reports. for a 2nd day, us officials complained that the reaper drain crashed into the black sea as a result of what they say has become a patent of reckless and unsafe behavior by russian fight, a joke, pilots in international airspace this time resulting in a collision. i just got off the phone with my russian counterpart minister showing as i said repeatedly, it's important that great powers be models of transparency and communication. and the united states will continue to fly and to operate wherever international law allows. this was the 1st phone call between the u. s. defense secretary and his russian counterpart in 5 months. and it's notable that the aftermath of the incident, both moscow and washington, are emphasizing the need for dialog. nonetheless, russia disputes the u. s. account of the crash, the criminal says the drone had switched off its transponder and was heading
8:07 am
towards russian territory, collecting actionable military intelligence against russian forces for the ukraine war effort, explained scramble to identify the aircraft and then response. the drone took a vase of action that led to its crash switch. you have heard representatives of the pentagon and the joint chiefs of staff side. the united states will continue to fly wherever it pleases, in accordance with international law. but if you follow this logic, the space around the united states has the same status as the space over the black sea, much as with a drain itself. washington says it's deep underwater and unlikely to be recovered by the us military. as far as the loss of anything of sensitive intelligence, etc, as normal we would take and we did take mitigating measures. so we are quite confident that whatever, whatever was of value is no longer a value. russia says it will attempt to retrieve the drone despite the difficulties
8:08 am
. whatever actually happens. this incidence is heightening the fear of unintended consequences and the risk if heightened escalation between washington and moscow. she ever can see al jazeera the pendulum. when you look at church is from the from to europe initiative. she's also a former mich advisor to nathan. she says, russia may be testing the limits of international airspace rules. if we're looking particularly at the inter junction between the nature space and the international airspace we have before the full scale invasion and into the full scale invasion, a long history from the russian side of violation, often a to airspace. in this incident, this is likely to be, to have taken place within the international airspace. so what, in the context of the black sea, the russians are likely to be doing is to try to provoke, to determine the americans, but also need to overall,
8:09 am
to not be able to use international airspace like they have, have tried to determine nato forces not to use the international maritime space within the black sea. this is what they're likely trying to do. and there's another bonus if we can call it that on the russian side, the n q reapers. what if the most and fan in very expensive you with military capability? so it's a significant loss that the russians, the criminal, particularly can boast off in regards to their domestic public as well as through the international community to say, look, we are able to down such an important military capability off the americans in international airspace. we do not care about international law. this is, these are some of the possible speculations of why russia has been doing this asian
