i don't, people clearly have the solution, the future, a 77 percent every weekend on d. w with this is deal of the news live from berlin, us lawmakers release. donald trump's tax returns the documents give details of the former president's financial affairs. the ford for years to keep them secret our washington correspondent assess, is how damaging the information could be. also on the program, vladimir putin,

he seeks closer military ties with china. the russian presidents overture gets a guarded welcome. beijing is officially neutral over the war, cry. and surviving the winter, the cold months can be brutal for the homeless and daddy, we follow one charity organization, throwing lifeline to people on the streets. ah, on pablo phone in the us, welcome to the program. a u. s. house committee has released 6 years of donald trump's tax returns, the former president ford for years to keep them secret. last week the democratic controlled house ways and means committee voted to release trump's tax tax records from 2015 to 20. 20. they're likely to provide new revelations about his finances.

trump was the 1st presidential candidate decades who refused to release his tax records. and this all comes with republicans, a bank to take control of the house of representatives. well it dw correspondence to me so much canda is in washington dc, and she told us earlier about the new information revealed in the documents. so public, we've learned important details about how much the former president did and did not pay in taxes. we learned more about how much he donated over the years. we learned about some of his foreign holdings and also how some of his businesses performed. and for example, we knew already that he didn't pay any federal income tax in the year 2020. that's because his businesses took some big hits because of a pandemic. but what is interesting to see is that the amount of federal income tax that he paid varied a lot from year to year. so i'm gonna throw some numbers out at you. so for example, he paid just $750.00, a federal income tax in the year 2017, a year later,

nearly $1000000.00 and a year after that $133000.00. so a big difference there, as you can see, and these documents really reveal that trump used deductions, he took losses in his businesses and that reduce the amount of tax id he owed significantly and asked for donations. the charitable contributions that i mentioned that also fluctuated quite a bit. so he reported donating nearly $2000000.00 in 2017 and then nothing in 2020 . and one more point that was really interesting. pablo, it was, it was interesting to see that he held financial accounts in foreign countries, including china, through the 1st year of his presidency. so a lot of people here in washington asking questions about that. yeah, plenty of questions. i'm sure that are going to be asked in the coming days to me. one of the reactions there been to the release tax documents. well, it won't surprise you public that the reactions are falling along partisan line. so, democrats have long said that this is important for transparency. and when one of

the democrats in the committee that published these returns, said on friday that these documents show that trumpet something to hide, that he used questionable deductions and tax avoidance schemes to get out of paying federal income tax republicans. on the other hand of said, this is private business, this does not need to be made public and they are now warning revenge. so they're threatening to make public tax returns of private citizens. the supreme court justices, business leaders, political enemies as they've called them. and you mentioned already that republicans will have a majority in the house of representatives starting next week. i do want to mention what trump himself is sad. he says that these returns show how successful he's been . and that he was able to use tax deduction to create jobs. so to wrap that up, i mean there is no law requiring presidents to publish their tax returns, but tradition a has called for them to do so. president joe biden released his returns dating back 22 years when he was running for office. but trump, they're breaking with tradition. to me,

tell us this. could these documents cause an issue for donald trump on his run for president in 2024. it doesn't appear that they will. i mean, observers here seem to gain that these documents do not indicate any sort of legal wrong doing and present from supporters have stood squarely behind him through state and federal investigations and controversies. so these tax returns are not likely to shake that core group of supporters and for moderate democrats, this is for them proof that the former president has lied once again. so although it's important to have these documents on record, especially if we know that he's running again in 2024, it is not likely to move the needle much if at all public interesting stuff, thanks to me dw, assuming so misconduct in washington dc. manufacture vladimir putin has called for closer military cooperation with china. the russian president was speaking during a video summit with the chinese leaders using ping, though beijing has not condemn the war in ukraine. it also hasn't given russia any

direct support moscow's latest air strikes of left to much of ukraine with our power. but if you're in missouri, we'll go with it. more attacks from russia on ukrainian cities round after round of drawings and cruise missiles. even though ukraine's air defenses are largely holding up falling debris from the intercepted rockets, steel cools as significant damage as this woman in keep looks on in her children's bedroom glass everywhere. vladimir putin held talks with his chinese counterpart. the video cole happened to take place on the $100.00 anniversary of the founding of the soviet union. its demise is something putin bitterly regrets. together he and shootin ping want to stand up to pressure from the waist. and putin, at least once closer, military cooperation with beijing was were a special place in russian chinese relations is occupied by military and technical cooperation. this contributes to the security of our countries. we aimed to
