10:04 am
the year, all this comes at a time when there's widespread angle among palestinians, triggered by violent police raids inside and out. so most the spillover threatened to broaden the conflict after barrage of rockets were fired from both lebanon and gaza. and israel carried out airstrikes in retaliation. tensions are still simmering along those borders. shortly after the tel aviv attacked, the prime minister instructed both the police and the army to mobilize all reserve units. but he's a man who is coming under pressure from many friends from with in his own coalition, with some are calling for a tougher stands for many israelis who oppose his attempts through changing judicial system. and from israel, closest ally the u. s. which in a rare move, publicly expressed concern over did you use to re overhaul the man who for so long

10:06 am
a which one to re put on the quarter. in recent years, we have faced continued authoritarian expansion is in cooperation among democracies has become more important. i would like to reiterate that the people of taiwan loved democracy to seek peace and are keen to for full the responsibility in the international community. we will continue to work with the us and other like minded countries to jointly defend the values of freedom and democracy. i sure i often all know here including love taiwan. and i found no problem. we will deliver and we will provide free to, you know, not peace for i, let's say. so we can speak to malcolm davis, who's a senior analyst in different strategy at the australian strategic policy institute, john just now from canberra, mrs. davis,
10:07 am
welcome to the program. how do you read this is pushing pull? look, i think everyone realizes that china regards taiwan as part of its territory. the taiwanese have a different perspective. the vast majority of taiwanese dancy themselves is part of china and have no wish to unify with china. so i think china is gradually increasing the pressure on taiwan. some people liken it to boiling a frog. essentially, if you increase the pressure gradually, eventually it becomes unbearable. i don't think that's going to work with taiwan. i think what you will see is that the chinese will expand these exercises. i have a time that become more aggressive. and the question is, at what point do they drift over the line of essentially a military blockade that that's exactly, that's what i was gonna say. it's my think is going at the, at this point, how close are we to that point where you cross the line and to what extent were in my perfect response?
10:08 am
well, the chinese have now said they're going to stop an inspect shipping in the taiwan straits, which would be a violation of international law or the chinese, the taiwanese have said that now we're not going to accept that. and so we'll be entering to see just exactly how far the chinese are prepared to push this out. if i do stop an inspect ships in the taiwan stray and the tawny saying no, we're not going to comply, then there's the potential them for their to. it's great into some sort of exchange of fire. and the chinese coast guard law that was released last year gives the chinese coast guard the ability to use force. and the chinese home coast guard is equipped with an awful lot of form appeal. i navy, destroyers, and frigates. is it helpful for tensions, for these ongoing meetings with us officials, one of the implications of that? what was that due to the the atmosphere look, i think was the u. s. and as allies in the, in the pacific, japan, australia,
10:09 am
south korea and others have to do is to deter china from using force against taiwan . and part of that involves shaping the environment and building a closer relationship with tie to strengthen the, the ability of the u. s. s, allies to deter china if we died, talk to the taiwanese, if we don't have engagement with them there by selected them much more vulnerable to chinese pressure. so one of the ways you deter beijing is to make it more difficult for them to isolate taiwan. that's exactly what these meetings are about . the lot going on in the world right now, isn't that not least china pushing the you on as a, an alternative to the dollar, a cut with, with putin. everybody is vying for position that says it's an uncertain dangers. time isn't it? so me is, and i was struck by president, she's comments to putin in moscow early away. he said, or you'll see changes occurring that have not occurred in a century. and we're the ones that are pushing those changes. i think what this
10:10 am
means is that she, in particular, we've proven as very much the junior partner or is seeking to ultimately change the international order to end the us strategic primacy. aims the western rules based international order and essentially create a chinese lead international order. we're in the very, very early stages of that process is going to last some years. and what the, the internet community has to do is to stand firm against china and russia and push back against them to preserve that rules by internet for order that has kept the pace really since the end of the 2nd world war, malcolm davis speaking to us from camber, thank you. thank you. and north korea has conducted another test of what it says is a nuclear capable underwater drone. these are images released by state media. young tested a similar vehicle last month. north korea has ramped up its weapons tests since the
10:11 am
resumption of u. s. and south korean military drills last month. the reuters news agency is reporting a delegation from saudi arabia is planning to visit yemen. next week, talks in the capital sana aimed at negotiating. opponents sees far with who few rebels, it's part of efforts to end the 8th year war between the iran back group and saudi led military alliance. and so as a saudi arabian foreign ministers agreed to reopen their embassies during the 1st meeting in 7 years in beijing as the in america is the chairman of the who run the sub a news agency. and he says, a man has been leading the talks between at the right regional rivals and an agreement might be reach soon or not. so some of all about via began negotiations have been running for some time in addition to the mediation efforts exerted by oman. many issues were put to discussions and use a conversion with some understandings being reach. so nothing new has been introduced,
10:12 am
nor has any new initiative been made of. this delegation will therefore be discussing the final points based on the previous discussions code through the all money mediators. decisive agreement is looming, that democratic and republican leaders of the us senate of issued a red joint statement calling on russia to release the wall street journal reporter, arrested last week. us citizen ever goes coverage. has pleaded not guilty to challenges of espionage is being held in a pre trial detention for 2 months. the criminal accuses him of spying u. s. government. he's the 1st american journalist detained in russia on espionage charges since the end of the cold war. white house correspondent, kimberly hock it. has this from the get go as soon as the white house learned about the detention of haven't girl coach a, it has always denied the allegations against him. i asked for these formal charges that have now been leveled against him. the white house is not in any way updating
10:13 am
its response, but what i can tell you is that the state department official is saying that what it is, the biden administration is doing essentially is pressing for fair and transparent treatment. so really what they're saying is that they are going to continue to try and really defend him in these circumstances. and from the bottom line is, as the baton administration's really echoing, that rare bipartisan condemnation of the allegations that we've had in terms of the statement that has come from capitol hill from the top senators. mitch mcconnell, as well as chuck schumer, essentially demanding the release of evan gerson ridge, how they're trying to handle it. and so far, it's been unsuccessful, has been to get what's known as consular access, and the so the u. s. embassy in moscow has been working unsuccessfully, so far with the government in russia to try and get communication. they're trying
10:14 am
to do this so that they can get the family in contact with the wall street journal reporter and also his employer. about what we've learned is so far, the process has been, i necessarily bureaucratic the, in the words of the state department, been opaque in fact. and so what we're now learning is that it's going to be as some days before there is any sort of communication. russia media have released to video of what they say. wagner must reason the center of the eastern ukrainian city of fuck moved on friday, british intelligence had russian forces were on the verge of inserting the city. well, president vote was zalinski said his troops would draw fairest venus around it. russia has been trying to take for food for months. and moscow is again threatening to scrap a great deal with ukraine unless obstacles to its exports are removed. the agreement allows ukraine to ship grain through a safe corridor in the black sea. the russian and turkish foreign ministers have
