concerned about the values of children, m. c. williams from a perpetual angle and services are available. we heard reports that schools are hospitals with office and one of the states and our food was moved by on, on those. we also have a combined with moving stuff and others. busy immediate need of a milledgeville come to director for so the children, speaking to us from saddam to russia now were caught at moscow, has rejected. the jailed us journalists, evan garage garbage is appeal against his pre trial detention. the wall street journal report has been charged with spying. following his arrest late last month.

greske of it and his employ deny any room doing. and washington was calling for his immediate release. it's the 1st time you s journalist has been detained on espionage charges by russia since the end of the cold war the u. s. ambassador to russia lin, tracy attended girl scrimmage, 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 him. and he has the w, former moscow bureau chief, europe, russia to explain the consequences of the court's decision. according to the f as b, russia secret service cache, which was acting on instructions from the united states,

allegedly collected information, which was classified as a state secret about one of russia's military factors in the euros or 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 for garish to which from 10 to 20 years in prison. an investigation is underway at the moment as a trial is scheduled for the end of may until then gosh, to which will be in a pre trial detention center in moscow. he is now there, considering the resonance of this case and his fame a one can assume that russell will do everything to punish eskoville according to the most severe scenario that is, put him in jail for 20 years. european commission president also on the line as told european lawmakers that, that you needs to rethink its policy towards china, but should not cut ties with beijing. this international and economic

status, 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 set 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. was of a melinda speaking about the di risking the relationship with china earlier, mouse w correspondent, research shouldn't in strasburg wat that you commission president is talking about yes, my dearest king means is basically meaning managing the relationships are in 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 life and airline has also been talking about introducing a new tool and new 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

they say their bond to de risk. the relationship is china now funded life is looking at the risks involved the relationship. but recently francis and one of them a call stress that he sees china bubble as an economic partner is there's hardly a unified policy. and so idea you 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 a 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 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 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 empty aggression there? yeah, there 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 took service 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 roll and lives up to its runs responsibilities in this area. and also, and that's maybe even more decisive than these words. she said that it would be

a prerequisite prerequisite for whatever happens now 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 or the as the i as arrested to men suspected of work in a secret agents for the chinese government. men were accused of running a secret police station in new york city to intimidates chinese dissidence, living of united states. okay, highlights a growing trend among authoritarian regimes which are going out of their way to silence opposition allegedly, behind this plan for sod, beijing's eyes and the big apple hidden in plain sight in new york city, china town. 2 men are suspected of running a secret police station control by china until several months ago, an entire floor of this building hosted an undeclared police station of the chinese

national police. there just imagine the n y p d opening an undeclared secret police station in beijing it would be unthinkable. u. s. prosecutor say the suspects, use the outpost to help bating target chinese dissidence across the united states. and monday, the men who are both us citizens, which hearts with conspiring to act as agents of china's government. they were later released on bail. the case comes as federal authorities ramp up investigations into attempts by us adversaries to intimidate political opponents in the united states. the outpost was established roughly a year ago and shut down after police search war. last fall. it's believe to be one of more than $100.00 were wide run by china. and the 1st on us soil.

unprecedented bloody battles. but both russia and ukraine have suffered heavy losses. thousands of soldiers have died in the more than 9 months that the battle for back moot has raged. moscow has been re supplying its front lines as fast as they lose people, but both sides are refusing to back down to them. for the kremlin, the capture of back mood would provide a long awaited battlefield victory, a symbolic show of strength. it could also open up the way for a russian advanced towards major ukrainian cities in the region savanski and cram a tourist and in turn control of the entire donetta guerria ukrainian president vladimir lansky has repeatedly said ukraine. we'll continue to hold back moat for now. it appears the months long stalemate remains the longest
