2:08 pm
but i think ok, so in the next election mitel but the solution is available locally, like local leadership lead between them. so of course, the united nations and, and other of league and others can get into the and they should actually be docking from a, from on section of the syllabus. but, but i strongly believe that the solution is available to them. thank you very much. us up melissa content director for save the children in a sedan. thanks for joining us. you and d. w. news. my trans russia now were caught in moscow as rejected. jailed us journalist evan gosh, coverage appeal against his pre trial detention. the wall street journal report has been charged with spying following his arrest late last month because cabbage and
2:09 pm
his employer denied any wrong with washington calling for his immediate release. it's the 1st time us journalist has been detained on espionage charges by russia since the end of the cold war pension mother, u. s. ambassador to russia, lin, tracy attended gustavus appeal hearing and spoke to the media outside. afterwards, we will continue to provide all appropriate support to evan in his family. and we expect russian authority to provide continued cancer, access to having the charges against evan or baseless. and we fall on the russian federation. immediately release them. and here's the w's former most cupboards. if you read russia to explain the consequences of the court's decision, according to the f s b, russia, secret service cache, which was acting on instructions from the united states,
2:10 pm
allegedly collected information, which was classified as a state secret about one of russia's military factors in the euros, even gash, which denied this accusation. however, a criminal case has been initiated against him and under the charge of his parents espionage punishment. under this article means a 4 guest which from 10 to 20, he has in prison. an investigation is underway at the moment as a trial is scheduled for the end of may until van gash coverage will be in the pre trial detention center in moscow. he is now there, considering the resonance of this case and his fame. one can assume that russell will do everything to punish garrett cubby according to the most severe scenario that is, put him in jail for when he s u. a receipt of their reporting european commission. president obama funder lion has told european lawmakers that you needs to rethink its policy towards china, but should not cock ties with beijing. this international and economic status,
2:11 pm
as well as our own interests, make it all the more important for europe to manage its relations with china. and for me, that also shows that decoupling is clearly not liable, desirable or even practical for europe. but as i said back in january, and as i said out in more detail a few weeks ago, there is clearly a need for europe to work on di, risking some important and sensitive parts of our relationship o stuff on the line. they're speaking about d, risking their relationship with china. that early am i asked d. w correspondent, who see our children in strasburg. what the you commission president meant with that? yes, my dearest king means is basically meaning managing the relationships are in
2:12 pm
a way that the european union thinks it can protect itself a bit better. so for this, there foreseeing new policies, for example, in the area of raw materials where there be want to become more independent from china. in some areas they are highly dependent in this field. so this is one of the steps, but that also means for the european union that they want to have a level playing field when it comes to the trade with china, which basically means to get the same access to chinese markets as chinese firms. also to get a better protection of intellectual property, was a laugh. annella has also been talking about introducing a new tool and you tool that should protect critical em sectors. and this new tool should be thawed because she said it can't be that there are areas or expertise of european firms that are then being used by a systemic rival. so there are still quite some ideas that are being floated around here and basically to protect trade towards china. and this is what they mean when
2:13 pm
they say their bond to de risk. the relationship is china. now funder line is looking at the risks involved the relationship. but recently francis, one of them a call stress that he sees china above all as an economic partner is there's hardly unified policy. and so i, d, u as it you have to differentiate a little bit when you talk about the policies towards china because there's on the one hand foreign policy. and on the other hand, there's trade policy in the area of foreign policy. it is still pretty much up to the member states, how they want to create their relationship with china in the area of trade policy. there it is, the u commission who is in charge. so today when we were listening or to to was left on the line in the european parliament, she was also talking to the member states into the european as a whole for the need to get a unified approach towards china. so this was
2:14 pm
a pretty clear message that she was sending out. and yet as you said, it is clear that member states have different approaches towards china. but i have talked to an antidote analysis the other day. and one thing he said, and that stick with me was they all agree that the risking is necessary. they just don't agree how. what about the war in ukraine? does the, you expect china to use its influence on russia in attempt to mp aggression their their, their commission president made this clear already before she went to china, roughly 2 weeks ago, she said that she expects russia to play a, excuse me, china, to play a role also and, and to exert influence on russia, she reminded china of them being a member of a permanent member of the security cancer. and that she thinks is crucial that china plays is roland lives up to its runs responsibilities in this area. and also,
2:15 pm
and that's maybe even more decisive than these words. she said that it would be a pre request prerequisite for whatever happens now or in china policies. basically what the you does for that, a precondition is how china, very ag towards russia was the actual strossberg there for us. thank you to the us now where the f b, i has arrested 2 men suspected of working a secret agents for the chinese government. the 2 were accused of running a secret police station in new york city to intimidate chinese dissidence. living in the united states, the case highlights a growing trend among authoritarian regimes. they're going out of their way to silence opposition. allegedly, behind this plan facade, paintings, ice in the big apple, hidden in plain sight in new york city's china town. 2 men are suspected of running
