i didn't think so many women would send me the photos. she's there motivator. all of us here on this one must be the and she won't give up. what do you stomach for public took my brother hostage a few days ago trying to sign in the scene of the job. they won't be silenced. starts june 3rd on dw, the basically the state of the news issue coming up today out china is driving him down and us engagement in the pacific islands. and then the dinners are movie and you were a city of states. i'm thinking it's blinking, arrive a, pull out a new guinea, promising support and defense cooperation, wide, and will it work the

i'd be to explain it to you. welcome to a dw news aisha. i'm glad you could join us indian prime minister, and that is a multi has promised support in a meeting with leaders of 14 pacific island states in pa, for a new guinea. the indian leader arrived earlier to a special welcome from papa and you were getting prime minister james matter of great body. in his subsequent meeting with leaders of pacific island states assured cooperation in areas such as digital space technology, climate change, and also environment protection. is there a meeting to place in the shadow of china's increasing engagement with the pacific islands economically and also in security terms involvement that is being seen with

wearing this by the united states and regional allied australia. movie use the moment to offer india as another partner in the region. part of is doing all the plan is how many a play in the start shoulder to shoulder, to sit with the pacific island friends are in this challenging time. part of my money back to be made in india, vaccines or central medicines, yet wheat or sugar part of india has been helping all fellow countries according to its capabilities. mother of car free open are included in the we support a free open and inclusive in the pacific. this will get some we respect the sovereignty and integrity of all countries mancha. and the,

joining me not the more context is dr. drug and not fund head of the stock home center for salvation. and in the pacific affairs doctor pond up. what does india want from papa a new guinea and the other pacific island states. oh yes uh i think uh the reason is critical to india to end up was because a lot of for strategic requirements up there for india. if he's not these, i think with the last 8 to 10 years, india is looking at the pacific island countries. incomes obstructed again, gives me in, i mean, the roads and renewable energy game. what's the graphic id in uh, c and 9 o'clock you can let him buy mental and gives me more than that. i think a if we type on this term from sick, you constructed the point of view. these island nations are typically for india as brought on in the pacific ot agents. it's complimentary. the pacifica policies

instruct digits of all the countries, particularly of the united states of america and all the port partnerships like japan, australia. so therefore, this is a critical regions for india putting multiple regions. i mean the also india held this forum for inter pacific island cooperation was very back in 2015. and now you certainly have the tide installment of this meeting, east china. the main reason for this outreach now of course china is the most uh, uh, significant uh you know, what do we think factor for us outreach seem the best? because then bridges and also in the us outreach in the pacific island regions. if we'd probably from the starting the chinese strategy on the seats and being the husband, it comes from frontier chinese sick. it would be, it could all make as well as military outreach in the regions. the complete uh, i learned the general concrete to in the pacific regions, but china had just probably instructed to keep points. um, not only from the cv,

almost some point of view, but also from the military point of view. doctor has definitely really encouraged countries like india and us, including defined numbers fairly up to read think about their pacific island countries, but for india, i think you are right up to 2014 and 15. that's been a gap. and i think um, even though that has been fueled signing up office shall be just the dialogue in countries like pop the engine offices visiting some of these countries in the, in the pacific regions. but still, i think the minister of the, on the, you know, ground level of some mixed up was officer 32014 and 15. that has been a gap. and i think the time has come to the review on duty in recruiter to the those and discipline. and i think probably some would this be did uh, with the perfect do you do that? you know, in their, my phone to reading if you're going to ties. but truly the question needs to be honest. if india actually possesses the resources, the finances, and the military strength to be able to come to

a chinese influence in the region. i think the only thing the chinese imprints in the regions is a big in a heart clean and task. i'm not think of no single nations like india would be you know, a 4 door to the chinese influence. i think what needs to be done. these type of we need to be practical and that you can then you could only compete in so you end up her ability is not to give you a duck label, which would single, under the account of the child is kept ability. we need a organizations not only i'm on the island, can please give her a preexisting screens uh, often deal. but also we need a much more contempt project coordination. i'm the cord countries, particularly with the us. we had a much more, you know, especially pride in focus the past because then strategy. so therefore, i think that if we talk about the us uh under, by the new systems policy, that are us id, you know, brands which is data part of many countries in the past because i'm confused,

and i think these are gonna be small grants. these are like 2.2 pipe 1000000 in capacity building exercises, americans under that bus because instructed you they are providing until they, they just somebody level and gives me the us has engaged with the regions. nothing beats are complaining and thinking just the outlook towards the region so therefore, india is not really competing enough to sink and 100 click on the chinese influence . i think the, the wig sinus adventure or some thailand, a, sorry, 2 boards, taiwan and inputting the past week. i learn some countries out of that, you know, moving forward. and i think you didn't need what india could think much more clearly in terms of collaborating with the, with the other countries in the regions. dr fund started with us on the line because to add to what you were alluding to earlier in another development by new guinea has also signed a new defense backed with the united states. you had, you're a secretary of state anthony blinking him arriving in fort most be for the ceremony

in place. president joe biden, also before the signing of lincoln met with other leaders, including news. it is 5 minutes to chris hipkins. the dean gives to us access to the country, sports and air feels as motion tries to counter a chinese influence in the region together. dr. find out why is the security deed in between the united states and pop a new guinea important? i think the key is that's how you want to use. so if you see the, the, we, the chinese strategies expanding towards not only the prospect regions but also supports the pos to pick islanders since i think that is definitely the most for them. what do we think impact of why they do the substance in domini, constructed sector, and i think the 2nd thing we made between us, i'm the popular new good guy now is a part of the us pacific island. somebody which was blinding september 2022 and i

think the did that has been a lot has been discuss how the americans should be engaged. i'm interested in the regions. so therefore, this is a continuation off of both the china factor and also to enhance the already constructed intelligence. you know, you're talking about the american involvement degrees or into your head president, bind them to have to cancel his trip last minute to concentrate on arguably, domestic and donald politics in the united states. i'm wondering what the message, but what is the message that that sends to the pacific islands? of course that will not really, but you know, board. well, i'm going to pass the garland countries because the, the, when the chinese president, you can think has visited cardboard in the regions on the, i'm china, are the much more concerned preferred on investment the, you know, what, in 3rd, i'm strategic towards the past because then countries so by then not visiting uh, to the region to the country is a suicide backup that many can you know,

for setting the regents on how many can outreach on the mission towards the regions . so therefore, the seats a definitely will not be positively taken. but again, i think of the, with the i'm going to construct is easy boarding the lock the door, you know, positively dropping part india for many a bus to pick out on countries. and i think they've received that office on liberty making a jump in between us. i'm the positive because i'm going to please the leadership summit to national security advisor level to you know, or be judge sort of happening. so that's the positive indications. but you are right, i think by them not rejecting the regions is that you said back for that many conflict sitting on the image. imagine the regions, you know, the bottom, we're talking about china looming logic in the region, especially. we had come to the pacific islands and that's talking about australia and it's ally the united states. and let's look at the security de la, the china assigned with the solomon islands last year. and today you have bought a new guinea signing the defense cooperation agreement with washington. i'm just

wondering if the pacific island nation themselves are united when it comes to resisting chinese influence separately, they're not the united. they would like to see that, you know, me constructed. you can put, you know, please, let's be very clear that date and the bus to pick island can please meet the investment. they need to connect with the rest of the work. and particularly they need to connect with the major economies into work. so therefore, they will, the way you come to chinese investment, chinese plumbing regions as well as they would also in the, you know, yeah, welcome, dominique and the environment. i'm going to construct a g, including the other water in the pacific countries. so therefore, i think for the past to pick island countries, the just a pdf will participate. i'm therefore, they would like to see as most of the chinese investment coming and the other quad countries, including the other end up with big countries. do you think put them in? do you have mr. be very mindful because the, with the chinese are looking at piling issue the with the chinese are looking at

the pacific islands. the frontage is not really good part of india support on the comic diplomacy in the regions. so therefore, i think the indian is to really know how they've been constructed in terms of strategy can, has been political engagement. i'd be invested in the regions along with the other countries spot, nothing with the court countries, particularly with the us. so therefore, bmw would they be getting along with the, you know, i'm the secretary of state blink and visiting of the same time is a waste company. and you said people come development for india us tides, particularly we named gives us heart of having to much more collaborative bayport's hoping against the apocalypse within the pacific regions, particularly in the pacific region. so this is definitely what coverage the moment, but a lot has to be done. i'm not sure what we're talking about that in the future, but for the time being relieved to leave it there. thanks so much for joining us today is i cannot find the head of this talk home center facilitation and in the pacific affairs. thank you so much. i thank you lisa,

a prime minister and the more he then heads to australia. so to visit that, that's something that's going to be covered in job on dw, and use a share of that. does it for today? we'd be back again tomorrow with more news and updates and see you then good by the nurse to us. that's why we listen to their stories reporter every weekend on dw d,
