clout the talk come as german chancellor. all of shots flying to beijing for 24 hour visit. and as concerns mound about the level of chinese investment in germany . awful engine for crisis management and w political corresponding julia. so deli, join us from mazda. hi, julio. what more can you tell us about today's meeting? had the focus to day was all on the war in ukraine. it was the main topic been discussed among a leaders here at the g 7. and at this g 7 for ministers meeting, the focus is specifically on supporting ukraine through the coming winter. now we know that russia has been bombing a crucial civilian infrastructure in ukraine, hitting electricity networks and water supply that, that has, that is having a great impact on the civilian population in ukraine and looking at the winter. that is coming ministers here, including the german foreign minister on it. and i bare books have said that russia

is new using the threat of starvation and of death by cold as a new weapon against ukraine, and it's a population. and that is why g 7 countries really want to come together and tried to coordinate a united effort to try to help ukraine through the wind through the winter by providing aid also in terms of tents and containers and heaters and generators to really try to help the population on the ground, but the focus is also now turning to china and china's relation with germany in the specific and i earlier spoke to the e. u foreign policy chief usa burrell. and i asked them about germany in china's relations. let's listen in germany. that much with china, we are looking for the copley economy with economy would be

everybody would understand personally on countries, avenue, economic interest in china. that trip that charles has taken to beijing at this moment was also discussed between us and german officials was yeah, we've heard from us officials that the aim a here at the g 7 is also to try to harmonize the approach to china among the g 7 countries and try to find a common approach to chinese investment in the g 7 countries, but also on how to deal with china's, china's possible more threatening actions against taiwan. and we've heard from a german foreign minister on a lena bear book that she thinks it's important to discuss ways to avoid making the mistakes that european countries made with russia also with china now,

but well with german chancellor, all of shots on his way to china with a big delegation of business leaders from german companies, there are concerns among the people in germany, but also germany's partners abroad. that germany is not really working to make itself economically more independent from china. and there is going to, there are going to be discussions here as to how all allies can be on the same page in terms of their relations with beijing. mouse, julia. so deleon, wednesday, many thanks. as we heard, the german chancellor is on his way to china and the sour one member of his governing coalition says it's probably the most controversial trip to beijing by a german leader in the past. 50 years. the energy crisis resulting from russia's war on ukraine has prompted rethinking, and berlin and other capitals about relying too much on doing business with authoritarian nations change through trade. for years that was germany's china

policy. wilma chancellor, anglo merkel champion. the idea throughout has 16 years and power, suggesting that making money and fostering change go hand in hand. china is now germany's biggest trained partner and concerns are growing. that this has made germany dangerously dependent. but if you look at a couple of the kind of key clusters of dependency em when now, particularly down to parts of the car and the auto sector and the chemical sector, and i think that's where you have the real dependencies. china, under all powerful president, she jane ping has undergone profound change. the economy has reached new heights, but instead of opening up politically, c has doubled down on authoritarianism. the idea of change through trade look stead. yet the new government has been wrestling with what to do about that.

the coalition deal, the government signed last year, looked tough, with passages on taiwan and human rights. a wall mark of the green party, which holds important ministries in the government side from under the time when people said trade, no matter what, no matter what the social and humanitarian stunned dogs are. this is the point for relations. this is something we shouldn't allow ourselves any longer. this means that we will also establish a more robust trade policy views of his china for europe, austro but the man at the top doesn't seem so sure. chancellor, all of shots has pushed through a controversial deal, allowing a chinese state enterprise to buy a steak and germany is most important. port hamburg the decision was met with uproar from his own coalition partners, most notably from the greens, all of cells as decision now to travel to china with a business delegation is only adding to the divisions. so where does that leave

germany's china strategy? for many will not just look have to look at how to diversify economic relations, but actually how to reduce strategic dependencies on china, particularly in critical areas such as raw materials and for example, areas such as wind turbine, so solar modules and electric batteries for electric vehicles crucial decisions lie ahead, but it's not clear if the german government can make up its mind. and we're joined now by our washington correspondent mikaela christina mckayla. what's the reaction in the us been to shows this trip? well, the u. s. a certainly watching this was a very critical i in the advance briefing of the g 7, there was talk of a very intense exchange. that would be hard on the very issues china that company

that's investing in germany's a hamburg harbor at the moment is also investing in many american harbors. but at the same time, at the united states with its large economy, other trading partners really wants to see its strategic partners remain on board when it comes to potentially isolating china. and i just want to greet out what german chancellor assaults that he said china remains an important business in trading part of germany and europe. we don't want to decouple from it, but the u. s. policy on china speaks of abusive and coercive economic practices in the trading space. and somewhere in between. the united states and its partners are trying to find a common line on china with both deeply invested there, having huge trade volumes in the us. it's more than half a trillion in the case of germany is more than $250000000000.00 or euro's whatever

you like. so both can't get away from china and are grappling with how to deal with it. so in your view is germany meeting washington's expectations of being a strategic partner when it comes to china. well, certainly we saw entity blinking on stage as well. there's a lot of agreement that china needs to be handled with course, and you won't her hear a word of direct criticism coming out of d. c. but no doubt there will be more expectations in the future. very interesting that germans aren't. their souls takes pretty much head on the question of where you are, where germany has to position itself between the us and china. that is a question german chance the angular medical always try to avoid it. pretty much all cost. what we are seeing this and is the west stressing how important

a common line is, particularly within the g 7 framework. and we hear just heard from the german foreign minister stress, how much of a strategic alliance, how important that is in terms of defense, in terms of security, in this day and age both for germany and europe. that's where the 2 sides are. whether we'll see a common strategy, well there isn't even one in the european union, so that certainly isn't going to happen. but the us got a lot more leverage over the ukraine, a conflict to ask it strategic partners to tow. it's lined towards china knows mckayla cooper now in washington, dc. thank you so much. a russian appointed official in ukraine's illegally annexed her san regions as russian forces posted along the west. bank of the negro river are now likely to leave their positions. this as ukrainian forces continue their advance in the area. meanwhile, tens of thousands of people have no left. the russian controlled city of harris on

many shops and businesses have shut, and people have been seen arriving in neighboring crimea by bus. the un says rushes invasion of ukraine is driving the largest, fastest displacement of people in decades as russia increasingly targets vidal, civilian infrastructure, millions of ukrainians are faced with a difficult choice of trying to survive a difficult and dangerous winter at home or becoming refugees abroad. that's mom, that's me. that's my dad. and that's my grandma got his portrait of their picture. perfect family hangs on the bedroom wall, but it's not this ukrainian boys current reality. it just him and his mom here in the south of belgium. dave received a warm welcome as refugees, but helena says the choice to flee was difficult, uh, molded in the day i wanted my child to be safe, murdered,

would be throwing mud. you pulled with absolutely did a fine. even if many people help us in bigion emotionally to spread it difficult, no child. belgium has become a refuge for tens of thousands of ukrainians since the war began. because most of them women and children noise b. their struggle is shared by millions of ukrainians. now scattered around the world, do you an agency for refugees? describe the situation as the fastest and largest displacement of people in decades . some 14000000 people have been forced from their home since the 24th of february, ukrainians are about to face. one of the world's harshest winters, in extremely difficult circumstances. moscow's attacks on civilian infrastructure have destroyed a 3rd of ukraine's power stations. with winter approaching,

there are growing fears that many areas could be left without power, heat, or water was porky women in an interview broadcast on ukrainian national television last week. you cranium, official advised refugees to stay abroad for the time being with your, for your call to switch us. i'd like to take this opportunity to ask them not to read on right now for when we need to. so why this window to do now is to just yourself and your children, your while notably relatives who may be ill, bedridden or elderly, i will fashion kit for ukrainians abroad. the dream is to one day return, but for now, helen is one of millions who are experiencing their 1st winter as refugees. nato secretary general insult him berg has urged members, a turkey to speed up approval of sweden and finland applications to join the alliance. turkey and hungry are the only nato members who still haven't signed off

on the nordic countries. membership bids nato chief sultan burg spoke to the press after talks with turkey's foreign minister and assemble finan on sweden have delivered on their agreement with turkey. yeah, they have become a strong part national joint fight against hudson in all its forms, among the stations. and they are clearly committed to long term engagement. we took year to address your security concerns. so it's time to welcome finland and sweden as full members of nato. their accession will make our lawrence stronger and there are people safer in these dangerous times, it is even more important to foreign laws. there. accession theory schultz covers nato for us and has more terry, clear words there from stilton burg. what's your take away from this meeting? well, nicole, this so was something that we don't see happen very often. and that is that we saw

signals of impatience from nato secretary general un stole timber, you know, until today, all of the allies have said, just lead on career, take its time and, and become comfortable with the finish swedish membership and the commitment to step up counter terrorism cooperation to convince zonker that they are truly against the p k. k, which both countries do classify as a formal terrorist organization to day was the 1st time this oldenburg came out and said, okay, turks you've had enough time. and this is the 1st time we've heard him a signal that, you know, they think that turkey, that, that finland and sweden have done everything they promised turkey. and that it's time to drop this block. so what's behind turkeys continued reluctance to welcome finland and sweden into nato. you know, a lot of the suspicion is that president air to one simply has a platform now to pressure suite in a country that has long irked it. or tim,

because there is a high tolerance for freedom of speech and demonstration even for a group that is considered a terrorist organization. and i can tell you, i was there over the summer and there was a demonstration that was considered just pro kurdish officially. yet the p k. k flags out numbered any other flag by far so you do have a very high visibility of the p k. k in sweden, and that is something that the government feels must be allowed under freedom of speech. now there's a new government in sweden, a new, more conservative government, and they see that they're going to crack down on support for the p k. k because that is outlawed since it is considered a terrorist organization. so there may indeed be movement on this on the sweeter side that allays even more president air to one's concerns. but this is a complaint that he's had against sweden for a very long time. and sweden's wish to join nato simply now gives him an opportunity to basically exploit it. thornburg says it's time to welcome finland and sweden. but what does that timeline realistically look like?

you know, the conventional wisdom has been that president air to one who's running for reelection would actually drag this out through his re election campaign to show that he has power over nato allies to show that he can get things done to show that he can make other countries make concessions to turkey, and there's no sign yet that he's going to make a decision any time sooner. just because of this. more recent pressure from nato secretary general stilton berg. so it could be that we don't see a resolution of this until the turkish election, possibly until the next nato summit, which is next june or july. we won't know for sure, but we could see some signals next week when the new swedish prime minister, who i just mentioned of kristen, goes to anchor and talks about his country's commitment to fighting terrorism with turkey. so i'll be watching that next week to see if president air to one gives any sign that he's willing to drop his blockade earlier than next summer. certainly a meeting to watch terry schultz. thank you so much. the island nation of
