a bid reject unity in the face of china is rolling influence of the asia pacific and nuclear threats from north korea. now you as president joe biden, praise the leaders of south korea and japan for pursuing closer relations. after a long history of animosity, stepping from tokyo's colonial rule out 0 is our fisher reports from camp david's. using the planning, pull down, and most of these and rivalries overcome us present, joe biden believes this is a significant diplomatic moment. this was the 1st summit. i posted a camp david as present as i can think of no more for the location to begin the next year or next year of cooperation. a place that has long symbolized the power of new beginnings. the location was deliberate, kept even in maryland. the presidential retreat is where a peace deal should be made agreements reached breakthroughs, accomplished japan, and says korea have a long history of suspicion and bitterness early,
1:03 pm
but the perceived going menace of china the pacific. i mean unpredictability of north korea brought all 3 countries together and what joe biden declared was a moment a political cottage regarding the response to north korea. the 3 countries agreed to strength of co operation for the full implementation of the sections and to work closely together in the un security council. the diplomatic ties will be stronger with a leader level hotline. there will be annual military exercises and efforts to protect and boost supply chains and the economy. we have agreed to step up our security cooperation to ensure our people safety and security in the region. but the americans that came to point out this is no time division and showing young this is somewhat, was not about trying. that was not the purpose of the meeting, but it did come. china obviously came up and i'll just say we don't share concerns about the economic coersion or height intentions caused by china. but this summit was really about our relationship with each other and deepening cooperation across
1:04 pm
on the tire range of issues that went well beyond. the white house says it's been working on this agreement since almost jo, biking sparse, the and office. the compact. the insist is designed to last for years and years. but for the moment it's only 2nd to last as long as you're bite and remains in office hours for sure. i'll just see that i come david in maryland to now the united states has already part of 2 other alliances in the asia pacific region, which have shared concerns about china. now what is the quad officially known as the quadra lateral security dialogue, which includes australia, india, and japan. and then there is the august, which is a security pack established in 2021 by the united states, the u. k. i'm australian. now the members recently signed the deals to supply us, made nuclear power submarines to australia that china is increased military
1:05 pm
activity is just one of the causes of concern. taiwan has accused beijing of intimidation. after the chinese troops carried out drills near the time and his waters on saturday. now china says the naval exercises are a warning to what it calls collusion between separatists and foreign forces. taiwan deployed aircraft and vessels of response. the drills follow a visit by the time when he's vice president to the united states, which anchor bay jang, china considers the self governed island as its own territory. okay, we're gonna get more on this tension. yeah. and is a research fellow at the institute of international relations at national chang. she university and he joins us from taipei. okay, what should we make of the timing of these drills? we've had us presidential bite and holding is summit at cap. david. are these drills coordinated with that meeting in what messages china? sunday. i think china already had
1:06 pm
a real before in the early stage of life's visit up to the us. i and now her all these way back. there's another one coming. of course, i think, you know, to so like you mentioned 5 is also a response to closer relation between china. meeting us 3 i in japan. time now always will know who can medium size or some kind of warning against any type of uh you it on us on what things do not want tan wilkes and including our president and vice president transit visit and not really you know, to stop. oh, where is official visit to the us? but china will consider that has a separate is so they will, you know, just fire, you know,
1:07 pm
kind of meet your reaction that you have to protest. so you have to exit masons on mandatory exercise. just worrying that if they don't, they almost like they have acknowledged or you know, at least a septic that us can develop a closer relation which time on. so this is something they have done over the years . but i think we try not to look at the usa attitude this time because of life training. so stop over all the way to the mall and on the way back, us stopping over in the us to get to know about and let me jump in here for a 2nd. i want to what we're supposed to do in terms of the threat level or the tension level is what should we interpret this as status quote we, we didn't know that this was expected in terms of the exercises has this height and tensions or are things still about the same well,
1:08 pm
i think these things is going the same any time once people have being used to haunt this kind of intimidation. so do what have to be menacing? is a want populace, especially in terms of the upcoming the election. okay, 2024 presidential election because vice president is a candidate so uh, you know, if trying to continue to do this, you will actually get the reverse resolved on the in terms of us commitments. we know that the us all that we know that the united states is obligated under treaties for its allies to have in to defend its allies. so given the fact that china has conducted these exercises, what should we expect in terms of the fact that these exercises have happened
1:09 pm
again, it is, is this sort of making a mockery of that? is it sort of, we can a we us position well because time one in the us government official diplomatic time, us recognize china recognize staging. by recognizing, beating you almost acknowledge that taiwan is part of china. you estimate p o patient relation was by why that's why pacing fail that it has, you know, it's a stop and d being by late it having this kind of relation between us in taiwan. so that's why i'm trying that will always take good stand but foot high ones case us always wanted to make sure there is peace across the taiwan strait and then there is no rule and us we're trying to make sure i want to have the fast capability in terms of intervention property, all right,
1:10 pm
it will be the same as the piece of the ukraine, not off the show me powers in this 1. 10 said yeah, we appreciate you joining us there from taipei. thank you so much for that. no problem. thank you for having me. all the right leaders of 11 west african nations say they want to use diplomacy to solve the price is caused by the who in the share, but time is running out. defense chief from the eco was block. so they have a plan for military intervention to reinstate, and his years alex did president, but at a meeting and gone his capital, they refused to make their timeline public out to 0. as charles stratford reports from across up to 2 days of close to meetings, west african defense chief say they have a plan for possible military intervention against 2 leaders in new jersey. we've already agreed on funding to rip up there to apply for the income pension. this
1:11 pm
i typically capacity with strategic objectives that quick make need that mental from investors hope to better better, better incorporate across commission. if a piece of security said the west african block, had the resources, equipment of political will, to act militarily and the door to find a diplomatic solution to the crisis would not be open it so much longer. the member must do so because presidency it to be hop on, meet the elements you have for me, take the on the equipment, you have the resources to run that. take this mission. so i can you read that to them in time? the or the is cubic but d b is slow beside the diplomatic efforts by numerous

it's been a 84 years since one came a sure. so it's a once in a lifetime event that we're going to be experiencing a this really is an all hands on deck effort. okay. our weather presenter jeff harrington is tracking hurricane hillary and jeff, just how bad is the storm and where is it right now? well, you know, kimberly hillary exploded from a tropical storm to a category for hurricane in less than 24 hours. so that is just wrap it, intensification. yes. the question. where is it right now? the eastern pacific pretty close to baja, california now here's the latest information that i have on this storm. so sustained wins around the eye of the hurricane. 215 kilometers per hour. so that is we can slightly and this strong will continue to weaken a bit as it travels west along the baja california peninsula. but it is still a very powerful category for storm. so again,
