so many she's bored that i'm was moved that he gets exposed. go to lunch with, find out about all the story info, migraines, reliable nice for migraines, wherever they may be. ah ah, this is dw, live from berlin. the chinese and russian leaders meet in moscow. she gent being is walking a diplomatic tightrope. china wants to be seen as a peacemaker in ukraine. bob vladimir putin is seeking more support for his war, from his most powerful allies. also coming on, global markets react the swiss back

u. b. s. requires its rival credits with switzerland central bank fast price. the deal is designed to avert a bargain price. ah, i'm good. how about as well come to the program? china's presidency jim being has been holding talks with russian leader vladimir putin and moscow. she's 3 days, state visit is widely seen as a show of support for polluted. he's the 1st lead up to be welcome to moscow. since the international criminal court issued an arrest warrant for vladimir putin over russia's alleged war crimes in ukraine, china has not come to end russia's full scale invasion. with his forces struggling to make gains was the booted hopes to signal that he has a powerful ally with spray in there,

the w g for to that lead to richard walker. for more of this meeting, richard, what do the 2 presidents each of the one from this meeting? is that what it is interesting to look at where they're coming from, isn't it? because you have vladimir putin, of course, in his war and ukraine invaded more than a year ago, he'd hope to topple the government there in short order that didn't happen. it hasn't been going well. and increasingly he's becoming more and more dependent on china. his is easily the most significant support he has on the national stage for economic support for diplomatic support. and he would like that support get further and further. he would certainly love to have strong military for support from china as well. so far as we know, that has been coming in, so that that's put inside of the picture. she's in pain is coming from a different place that was lead. china is a much bigger power. now is that then russia, but it's also been having a difficult couple of years. it has are 3 years of pretty much isolation from the

international economy. that's just how tough it's kind of cove, it locked down period was. it's opened up in a very bumpy way. recently. he's now been confirmed in power for as president, but he needs to get the economy back contract. and vladimir putin. russia is important as the source of, of energy as a source of commodities of all kinds. and also, and this is where they have something in common as a source of kind of diplomatic support in the other direction. because what they have in common is really lining up against the united states in particular, but also the u. s. kind of late. so democratic order is it more broadly, which they see as really the main hindrances to their national goals, vladimir putin, for what he wants to achieve in ukraine and, and europe. he sees the u. s. a. standing in its way. likewise, she, jim ping, seeing the u. s, a, standing in its way towards what it calls you, re,

unification with taiwan towards. it's a rise as a major global power. so really, this is all about signalling also to the united states that we're sticking together a briefly other really c i to, i always want gaining more than the other. i mean, it is certainly, it's an, it's, it's not an equal relationship, but not at all. i mean, russia is far more dependent now on china than the other way round that without china support, russia would be in very, very difficult circumstances. now she is also trying to appear as a, please tell us more about the, the chinese piece plan for you cry. yes. and this is where i kind of what we just talked about. kind of gets a bit more complicated because on the one hand you've got this really close relationship which i trying to demonstrate here. on the other hand, china and shipping a trying to insist that china is neutral on the biggest issue of the day on this war. and it's come out recently with what it called

a position paper on the boss. and, you know, these are all sort of principles for, you know, how you could arrive a piece. and this being sort of hyped up in the, in the media extent, as a sort of piece plan is being criticized in the west for a lot of it sort of pretty much the working towards rushes favor. but still, number one point on this paper is the importance of sovereignty, respecting, sovereignty and territorial integrity, which any detached reader might think. well, that means, you know, don't invade other countries, don't try, says take away other countries territory. so there's definitely curiosity in western countries. what's he going to make of this? where is he going to go with it? and vladimir putin said at the beginning of their meeting just now that he's, he's read this is interested in talking about it. but at the same time, she jumping just as they met, there must go under your strong leadership. russia has made great strides in this prosperous development. i'm confident the russian people will continue to give you their support next year in election. those not the words of

a really honest broker of a neutral party. so big question marks about how serious a china really is about this plan. but we'll watch the next couple of days. see what comes out of it. richard walker, stevens, the national editor. thank you very much, richard. we're going to france now. the government of president manuel not cause narrowly survived and no confidence motion in parliament. the 2nd motion is also on like you to see the roles were triggered position party after the government pushed divisive pension to parliament. without a vote, we propose plan has violent protest across france. so let's go to paris and bringing lisa louis our correspondent lisa. the no contract was rejected. does that mean that mccall and his government are now safe? well, a safe in that of the my call. my con government is not going to come down immediately

because you know, the vote of no confidence was rejected. but that doesn't mean that politically speaking, the president is in shallow motions, yet there is a lot of protest, lots of protest going on in paris across the country. and people are watching the situation very closely. politically speaking, there is a 2nd rate of confidence plan for later on this evening. however, that one is very unlikely to succeed because it launch by the far right party. and i want to not the other traditional means that the opposition parties will try in the coming days and weeks going to the constitutional court and also a launching a referendum because they want the friends to vote on this for form. and then now will this end to protest? so can we expect more it's kind of triggering more anger within the general population. there were protest movements over the past few

weeks, several days of national nationwide strikes and demonstrations. but the number of participants had gone down until last thursday, when, as suddenly the government decided to use this is this exceptional constitutional power to push through the pension reform, the controversial pension reform without a vote by the national assembly. and it seems that people have really, are really angry about that. and protests have taken to the streets again over the past few days, a few 1000 every day here in paris. and some of them have been saying, you know, i was initially in favor of this reform, but because the government use this exceptional power, i'm now against it and i'm good and turning out to protest against that. there is, there is another, a nationwide day of strikes planned for this thursday. and everybody's watching as looking at that day will be watching events that day, obviously very closely to see if more people will turn out then than during the

last day of strikes. alyssa, briefly, if you can, why is my call than sticking with these reform plants despite this massive backlash for him, it's important for his image. he wants to show that he is a strong statesman on a national, but also on an international level to be able to continue to take part in international negotiations. for example, concerning the russian invasion in ukraine. it's also the masterpiece of his 2nd term in power. but obviously this is not going down very well with the population here because the government has also been a bit and not very, very agile in explaining why this reform was needed. so it seems like at this has not really worked, at least not on a national level. it's not really push polishing up is image right now, lisa lose in pairs there. thank you lisa. as have
