6:02 am
they had spoken by phone numerous times, but today was their 1st face to face a 3 hour meeting between chinese president. she's in pink and u. s. president joe biden, the world's 2 largest economies, their rivals soon to be enemies. trade wars that could turn into real wars, battles over tech in the present that could become battles over taiwan in the future. and those 3 hours of talks to date, they could have repercussions for the entire world. for years to come. i'm broke off in berlin. this is the day. ah, i'm absolutely believers need not be a new cold war. reaching the international community university expects the china and the united states will properly handle their relationship. quit. we're going to
6:03 am
compete vigorously when i'm not looking for conflict. but she that i look forward to working with you to bring china us relations back to the track of healthy and stable development to the benefit about 2 countries on the world as a whole. i think that that we understand one, which is the most important thing that can be now also coming up turkey is blaming kurdish militants for a blast that killed 6 people sunday assemble. but the shock waits from this attack . they could reach possibly all the way to nato headquarters. very sad because some people just came here to la, to have fan to enjoy travel occasion to went to the shop to buy something. and they didn't know that they li will be the last day. which you, our viewers watching on p b. s in the united states, into all of you around the world. welcome. we begin the day with an agreement that brings to an end, the silent treatment between washington in beijing today in their 1st face to face
6:04 am
meetings. in spite became president. the leaders of china and the united states said that it is time to start talking again. relations between the world's 2 largest economies, they have fallen to levels last seen when richard nixon was u. s. president. for decades, business ties have pulled the u. s. in china and the global economy closer together . but those forces are now working in reverse chip. technology is now part of national security pitting china against the us, china's military rise and it's claims to taiwan when they are the ingredients of an invasion that the pentagon would not be able to ignore. china in the us are increasingly pulling the world into 2 different directions. the economic costs are already sky high, but a military conflict. it would exact a price that no $1.00 wants to pay. and that brings us to today's important talks
6:05 am
between joe biden. and she's in pain, we have this report after months of simmering tension, the leaders of china and the u. s. struck an optimistic tone in what president joe biden called direct and straightforward talks during their meeting ahead of the g. 20 summit in bali, chinese president. she's in ping tote, his us counterpart that the 2 nations share common interests. as china's political and economic power grows. she said beijing is not looking to challenge the u. s. or shake up the existing international order law. ah. the current state of china us relations is what we are both concerned about. but the current state does not conform to the fundamental interests of our 2 countries and peoples . nor does it conform to the expectations of the international community.
6:06 am
one of the key issues was taiwan and the u. s. pledge to defend the self governing island bite and voiced opposition to growing chinese aggression. he reiterated washington's one china policy, which acknowledges beijing's claim to taiwan, but does not recognize its sovereignty over the island. but biden said there was no need to let tension spill over into a new cold war. i'm from for sure. i'm really clear that our policy or to or this is a clue course to lose all right after you as how speaker nancy pelosi visited taiwan in august, beijing scrapped it's agreements with washington on tackling climate change. but following mondays, meeting at the world's 2 biggest greenhouse gas emitters have re committed to cooperate, biden said, u. s. secretary of state, antony blinked and will soon visit china vowing to avoid conflict and keep
6:07 am
communication channels wide open. my 1st guess it says that you as president biden did not convey the correct message to the chinese leader to day gordon chain has written extensively on china, including the coming collapse of china and the great us china tech war mr. chain george me to night from fed minster in new jersey. it's good to have you on the program. let's just start by this, the messaging that we heard today. what did president biden say in what should he have said? or president biden talked about the establishment of working groups between the united states and china. but we have seen this before, you know, working groups don't really work. and the problem right now is that while we talk with china, china continues unacceptable conduct the united states. does not impose cost and so therefore we're not moving in the right direction. you know, at presidents time,
6:08 am
at a multilateral summit like the g 20 is precious. instead of fruitless conversations with china. i think the president should have been talking with american allies and friends and partners, or at least potential allies, friends, and partners. because we are going to need that coalition to deal with china. and cuz this is going to be a long struggle. i know that optics are very important when there are meetings at this level, especially for she's in pink. what struck you when he and biden, when they met and shook hands, did it? well, china one, the 1st round of cj and ping was standing in the middle of the room in front of the flags, and biden walked half way across the room to see. now this is traditional chinese stay craft that goes back thousands of years where it's essentially the party in the inferior position, having to come to meet the chinese ruler. and so basically,
6:09 am
you know, the chinese people are going to see this as a biden, acknowledging his status as a vassal. now, i'm sure biden doesn't feel that way, but that's the way this is going to be presented. and this away, i think that people will perceive it in china. what about the message? not necessarily meant for chinese consumption. and i'm talking about what we heard from both presidents today and, and that was their condemnation of the use of nuclear weapons are also the threat of using them. i mean, that was meant for vladimir putin. that was certainly an example of where these 2 presidents did find common ground. would you agree? i agree that they don't want, or at least the chinese say they don't want of vladimir to it and to use nukes. but we've got to remember that china has been making threats for the 1st use of nuclear weapons since july of last year, or that's when they started to ramp up these threats when they threatened to insinuate tokyo. and then in september,
6:10 am
they promised to go after australia in march of this year, the chinese military promised the quote unquote, worst consequences for any country helping taiwan. so while i think it's great that seizure and thing as saying, oh no, flatter her foot and shouldn't use is most destructive weapons. i'd like to see the chinese to acknowledge that they shouldn't use these threats or these weapons. yeah, and that brings me to taiwan to day you as president biden, after this meeting, he said that a chinese invasion of tie one is not imminent. and 1st, that sounds good, but imminent means many things. he did not say that it's not going to happen. one day, i mean, do you think he purposely left that door wide open? yes, i think so. i mean, he was answering a question and he wanted to make clear that they could cooperate with china at this time because an invasion was not imminent. i think biden more or less said the
6:11 am
right things about taiwan today, but the problem is not what he said about taiwan. but the problem is ukraine, because biden has been warning the chinese about supporting vladimir putin. the chinese openly support potent, especially with military information. the united states doesn't do anything, and the danger is that see jumping says, well, you know, biden says the right things about taiwan, but you know, he isn't doing anything to me on ukraine. so, you know, obviously the american president is not willing to confront me. so i can do what i want, and i want or anywhere else. and that is the danger, univision. you said earlier that the u. s. president is, should have been sitting there with his western allies, western european allies. and of course, that means germany. germany though, is heavily invested in it's heavily dependent on the chinese economy at the same time as it's a us ally, is it going to be forced one day maybe sooner rather than later to to decide to 2
6:12 am
sides? well, the president biden is not forcing germany to choose sides, but at one time i think they will be forest because china is going to do something that will require countries to pick aside. and germany is going to be in a bad position because its businesses dependent on germany. and i think that chancellor shoals visit to bay ging recently was really be motivated by german business considerations. so i, i think that we're gonna see a point where german business is going to find itself in a very awkward position, just like apple right now. the american company is finding itself in a very tight position with regard to its employees or the employees of its sub contractor across china. yeah, that's true. and we know that they're scrambling to sin production outside of china to places like vietnam. but your point is well taken there,
6:13 am
they are anchored in the chinese market. gordon chain is going to have you on the show. we appreciate your time and your insights tonight. thank you. thank you, brent. well, as the g 20 summit kicks off in indonesia, there will be one very noticeable no show he's right behind russian president vladimir putin butcher was personally invited to the g. 20 summit by the president of indonesia. but just a few days ago, wooten said he would have to decline. and well, that news will certainly not be bad news for many g 20 member countries. putin's war in ukraine it remains the headline at this. so would he old wooden t it in the end brushes? president decided he wouldn't as he pulled out of attending the g. 20 summit in person from a blow to indonesia as president joke. her widow,
6:14 am
who had even traveled to moscow to personally invite vladimir putin. but many western members of the g 20 will be relieved. they won't have to meet, put in face to face. some have questioned rushes, membership, following its invasion of ukraine. an invasion that created a deep geopolitical divide. that divide means that even if putin isn't on the indonesian island of bali this week, his war will still overshadow events. oh, it's already called tom all across the world, including a food crisis, after grain prices, sword as a result of the war. a deal to allow grain exports from ukraine was agreed with russia in the summer. but at the end of october, putin suspended it, although co operation began a few days later, the russian president may refuse to extend the deal when the agreement expires
6:15 am
later this week. and energy crisis has also hit the world hard with most e u g 20 members doing their best to reduce their dependence on russian gas and oil, leaving many out in the cold. other g 20 members, including india, have benefited from cheap russian energy. the knock on effect of all this has been rising prices and soaring inflation. g 20 members are still divided over russia's war. but while it continues, its leaders will struggle to fight its global effects. ah believes in turkey suspect a syrian woman planted the bomb that went off in istanbul on sunday. they say that she was trained by kurdish militant and the woman is one of more than 40. you have
6:16 am
been detained over the attack, the band kurdistan walker's party, which was known as the p k. k, has denied any role in the blast. at least 6 people were killed in several dozen injured with the explosion ripped through a crowded pedestrian street in his van board near toxin square elise re to home in a stumble following sunday's bomb blast. inside. a suspect is arrested turkey's interior ministry claims this person said to be a syrian woman with links to kurdish militants. was responsible for planting the device. dozens more people are sent to have been detained. the attack hit this busy shopping street, causing panic across the city as people ran for their lives. live on the phone. if i was talking on the phone or all of
6:17 am
a sudden there was an explosion. it was pretty loud locked. and i looked at the window and saw people running very sad because some people just came here to our, to have fun to enjoy, to have a vacation. they went to the shop to buy something. and they didn't know that they will be, it will be their last day. you on this, i don't feel safe here anymore and i'm afraid to will be more bombings by that. if i ever have kids, i don't want them to go through something like this. on the emergency rooms, yet i hope it will not happen again shall. and they managed to prevent such attacks as some of them, and then they get along condolences have been paid from across the world. but turkey has rejected those from the united states. it accuses washington of supporting the band kurdistan work his party, or p k k, which it claims is behind the attack lyrics on this. anatole, under the insincerity of our so called allies this mueller,
6:18 am
who officially sent the terrorists money from their own sen, which is evident, had, under what the political fights continue. it stumble, cleans up the mass as the most deadly attack in 5 years. leaves this city on edge. so my next guest is mr. henry barky. he's a senior fellow for middle east studies at the council on foreign relations in new york. mr. barking, it's good to have you with us on the day to day turkey's interior minister basically snubbed a message of condolence that came from the united states regarding this tragedy. how worried are you that this incident could trigger tensions, or even a bigger crisis between turkey and the west, particularly between turkey and the united states?
6:19 am
look the minister of interior, mr. so like, so through a lot of grandstanding he has in the past is united states of directly being involved in terrorism as sets up the unfortunate the turkish government. and especially in a sort of have very little critical because when you got that kind of cool, they have been interesting. and even when you look at this is that it looks like a new issue that you have for me. and then within a few hours they know exactly who it is and they can address 40 people. and very conveniently they find somebody who they say is related to the p k. k. and that i see they came from bonnie, which is in syria. nothing in turkey or even in iraq. and here the issue is specifically the trucks are upset that united states is working with the citi cards
6:20 am
in northern syria against the islamic state. this is a nation ship that start in 2014 and the turks have been trying to stop that. and united states has refused, precisely because the syrian current site, the only effective force against the islamic states. which by the way, it's been sitting at the moment in syria. so let me ask you what you said there about the this, the suspect it is true. people have been saying that the suspect if, if, if she had been trained, she would have made this the obvious mistake of running down the street like she did were cameras could record what she was doing. i mean, we've heard that when i'm listening to you or do you, are you implying that maybe this, this was done? this is an in house job that may be a turkish group or the government down that have stage this look,
6:21 am
i don't know who did this. ok, but let me, let me put it this way, this the turkish and then a p k. k. so i will not, it's illogical for them to do it because if they sleep them 8, the united states will have to respond and united states, or it will really the story to the nation ship between the syrian cards and united states. it is not in the interest cards to do something like this. ok, so it makes absolutely no sense. who did it? i don't know. in the past we have seen the islamic states do many attacks in cherokee with lots of casual. and so i, i don't, i would like to see a real evidence unfortunate the from, even i know from my own experience with the church they owned make up stuff
6:22 am
constantly. and maybe i did meet with izing a coup in 2016 with a guy. and so they really have very little credibility and from an american perspective, we don't really take many of the accusations very seriously because they never us. what do you think the chances are that turkey will use this incident as a justification to launch a new military incursion into northern syria? i mean, it can only do that if it gets the green light from russia and the united states. right? that's going now, this is the big danger actually that, that the turks might even do it with that american approval. the americans do not want to trucks are going to not a big operation because it's going to really destroy whatever infrastructure
6:23 am
they've created against isis because isis is still the threat. and it is, remember that detox, i also have elections this year and i was the one anxious to show that you stuff. in fact, i track with turkish personal time, almost daily. you see stories of how many k k fighters of insurance at the field by striking intelligence. drones is this constant juggle beat if you want against. so in a way, this attack and the speed which, which the accusing the accused current, especially the signal is a little bit problematic for i don't because now you're gonna pressure all, he will think he has pressure to intervene and look for united states. it doesn't matter who is in charge in congress with public and so that's
6:24 am
they unify in to mr. burke. unfortunately, we're out of time, but we appreciate your time and your insights valuable stuff. i'm sure we'll be speaking again sooner rather than later. thank you. as the cops when he saw the climate summit is its find a week, the question of who will bear the financial burden of global warming? it remains on answered. rich nations are still at loggerheads with developing countries who are reeling from the impacts of climate change. one key issue, climate finance, the the 20 group of vulnerable countries. once more aid to battle, some of the worst disasters to trail. the horn of africa floods in south asia are the responsibility for causing climate change largely rest with industrialized economies, poor regions are bearing the brunt to day. in the philippines, rising seas are threatening the capital just
6:25 am
