hoping to restart talks on quite sure. economic and business ties with germany and the freedom of speech award presented at dw is global media forum. the winning journalist st. silence is not an option for him and his colleagues. in el salvador, [000:00:00;00] the break off is good to have you. with this, we start the week with the us secretary of state, anthony blink, and wrapping up a 2 day visit to china, his mission, to stop the freefall and relations between washington and beijing lincoln. on monday he met with chinese president. she didn't pay, and we called on him to make more positive contributions to stabilizing the bilateral relations. as we know, economic relations or fraud, i made us concerns over china's human rights record,

in its close links with russia. and this was the 1st visit of the us secretary of state to china in 5 years assigned that neither country wants divisions to widen further heres blinking speaking after his meeting with the chinese president and i came to beijing to strength of high level challenge and communication to make clear our positions and intentions and areas of disagreement and those 4 areas where we might work together, what our interest aligned on shared trans national challenges. and we did all of that. so what has this trip really achieved? i put the question to our washington bureau chief municipal, the biggest headline here is really they met and they talked with each other and that definitely made the world a little less on sorts and then less dangerous. and that was something a blinking wanted to accomplish it was anything but a given that the 2 leaders to meet in person. as you just mentioned, the relations between,

between building and washington have really sort over trumps trade wall buildings sort of claims over taiwan and the shooting donovan, the alleged chinese spiral noon over the us earlier this year. we have been talking about that. you'll remember that i'm sure so the fact that proceed and she decided to meet with antoinette clinton, who is not the president of the united states, only the secretary of state kind of underlines how serious she is taking the current situation. that was the, the easiest pull, the reporting from washington where the united states is not the only country reaching out to beijing. china is premier lee chanc is here in berlin for talks with german leaders. it's his 1st 4 and trip since taking office chestler all shots . welcome to lee with a formal dinner earlier on monday. earlier in the day president funk moultrie stein by a received lee at bellevue pounds. usually prelim published its 1st national security strategy. last week in describing china as

a partner and systemic rival. despite the the economies of these 2 major exporters, they remain intertwined. a big day in lanes wolf, schultz and a gaggle of his talk ministers on failing germany's new national security strategy . that message, the world is getting more dangerous in germany, needs to respond to me as much for the 1st time in our country's history, we have thrown off a national security strategy. thoughts on russia's invasion of ukraine was a huge help to the system for germany. but there is another shout, the shaking the political class here in bowling, just as much. but show that it's not quite so something with this so big that it will soon get a strategy paper, all of it. so this one is all about china. she, jim ping has stopped by vladimir putin despite the war. and man, he's cooled,

his best friend. it kind of thing that getting closer and this is driving home some hard realities about she's china. he's double down. no, no thorough terry in power repressing freedom. some home comb and minority rights and she and jane it's threatening to attack taiwan and assessing military dominance of the south china sea. and dangerous me a message in the region of adding to fetus of war between china and the united states. germany's most important ally, germany is not alone in wiring of idle affairs. who will makes it even harder? you said germany got in so deep with china, in the last decade in the hospital. so the 2 sides built an incredibly close, almost symbiotic relationship. now the cracks of showing, showing that became germany's top trading pond for years in a row. but the pen demik showed that supply chains could break down and

a crisis german car companies became addicted to china is exploding market. now, chinese rivals are threatening to beat them and electric cause chinese tech got stuck into sensitive gem and infrastructure. now that seen as a security risk, one of this present spelling with some really tough di lemme is about how to rethink the relationship with china. and inside the government here, there are different views. here's a case in point. china is state and shipping john costco, both to stay can a terminal in the handbook hub, germany's most important port, a foreign minister and the babel concise chancellor robot. how big, what adamantly against saying this would give china too much sway of a critical infrastructure. but while i've sold over volt them is chancellor. the us he's keen to riley it's allies to accommodate approach to the source of decisions. and at the g 7 summit this year,

they all agreed they should de risk that relations with badging. a step back from the, the coupling the most who case voice is for cooling for but what's a risk and what's not a risk? well, that's open to interpretation. the indications are that a lot celts has a fairly narrow definition of what the risking is. i think for him it's mainly about reducing dependencies. ensuring that supply chains are resilient. i think the, the message from the chance to re so far has been that they don't want to rock the boat. i think germany is going through some difficult economic times. and there isn't a great deal of appetite for uh uh for confronting china. schultz tried to work this line on his 1st trip to badging late last year. speaking out about

tensions in the relationship well stressing the need to cooperate on global issues like climate change and mingled among the diplomats. he brought a squad of gem and ceos with him to, to business giving and said he's a member of the german parliament for the free democrats. i asked her how she would advise the government on dealing with john. i think the thing that china and the people's republic and the communist party fear is most is when democracies work together. so my approach would be, and my advice to the government would be to speak with not only a german voice, but rather with a european voice. and that's why i think it would be more necessary than ever to bring the ruling leaders from the european countries in one circle. because the alliance of democracy, it was something that china needs to needs to talk to. and he also needs to

assess when it comes to um, consultations in the future. so it's not only about german consultations in this week, but rather with a european standpoint that was german lawmaker giddeons. and speaking with me earlier, officials say that find palestinians have been killed in an hours long class with his really forces in the west bank. it began with a raid on a refugee camp in the city of jeanine. they ended with airstrikes, a rare occurrence. and the is rarely occupied territory over 90, palestinian to 8 is really soldiers were also injured. and is really raid in the west bank met with fierce resistance. armoured vehicles carried is really troops into a refugee camp in the city of jeanine in search of the 2 suspects. the soldiers faced an armed counter attack from palestinian fighters of the palestinian prime minister defended their actions,

the national shop. when we and our people will confront these attachments and this occupation, it must become costly for israel's life. seems of chaos for recorded by journalists on the ground as they sought shelter. one journalist was rushed into an ambulance with an injured setting. the hours long clashes left several palestinians dead, including this 15 year old boy in a rare move is real deployed apache attack helicopters reported the targeting gunman, though it was the 1st air strike on the is really occupied westbank in almost 2 decades. is really soldiers were also wounded in the fighting. several of them air lifted the safety. israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu visited the wounded at a hospital in haifa and said the raid had targeted terrorist homeowner's name,

but the old boat smiled. we are fighting terror with strength and firmness in recent months. we eliminated and arrested a record number of terrorist. that's what happened in an operation. and then jeanine area with our forces killed some terrorist and the company interested others. they were facing an ambush and active extraordinarily well a little bit. so why it took me to class. the class has lasted nearly 10 hours, according to witnesses. when the gunshots died down the streets filled with the sounds of morning as funeral processions passed by let's take a look down some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world. funerals are being held in uganda for the 42 people killed and a school massacre. police have arrested 20 people. suspected of having links to a militia group lane for the killings. some of the victims were burned to death. others were shot or hacked with mission. donors at a united nations conference in pledge, nearly one and a half $1000000000.00,

in salvador. and leading groundbreaking investigative journalism in latin america in his acceptance speech for the dw freedom of speech reward journalists, oscar martinez spoke about being targeted in a surveillance campaign. but it's a little bit on the using those salvador where i come from and where i'll head back to after receiving this award enough as headed toward as a full fledged dictator sort of clean. it's no longer a democracy alone at my news plans or mail fargo. wendell $22.00 individuals, including myself, were targeted when we were gathering evidence of the presidency, could agreement with the criminal gains on media. freedom is increasingly under threat globally. this year. a record number of journalists are behind bars in every corner of the world. according to data released by reporters without borders, even in countries like germany, where in 2023 journalists were targeted by a record number of cases of violence,

an arrest will seem to speak both cases of violence. unfortunately, against reports is in our country, especially a demonstration good school which pressures invasion of ukraine has further aggravated attacks on media workers and is fueling a spike in fake news and misinformation on social media. ladies and gentlemen, it cannot be which image is manipulated and by whom, which information can i trust? as these questions are, rising more and more frequently does and think stayed crackdowns and free expression are also putting journalists at risk last month stream. you going to pass a law for pressing the i'll do be due to community that also criminalizes reporting on eligibility to topics. so unfortunately, we only have this even even reporting on fox on your gun and media about the age of the community is, is it possible media?
