ties are frost, made us concerns over china's human rights record, and it's close links with russia. this was the 1st visit of the us secretary of state to try it out for 5 years. a sign that neither country wants divisions to widen. here is lincoln speaking, after his meeting with president, she came to visioning to scrape of high level challenge of 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 dw correspondent, janelle, do my loan is in washington. i asked her what anthony blinking achieves with this trip. well, considering how much relations have deteriorated between china and the west, as of late, the cab treatment of this meeting is one that it happened and to that blink and was able to meet with cheating ping. so it's not as if 0 power play happened,

right. so she didn't paying waited until the last possible minute to meet with blinking. but he did, and it's important to note that these 2 men are not counter parts. she didn't ping is a president to be blinking while he is a top diplomat of the united states is not a president, but they met. and in that was able to show us that china is interested in averting a conflict with the u. s. as well. and this cannot be taken for granted, because that means no less than the world, perhaps being a little bit safer than it was before this meeting. and, you know, this follows months of escalating tensions between the us and china. let's not forget that the chinese 5 balloon that was shot down and us, aerospace was and we're 4 months ago. but now this visit has happened and it could pay the way for more meetings between the us and china, perhaps later this year between a biden and she on the side lines of

a summit and sun for us to san francisco. but the white house has yet to give him any more details on that for now. a, let's listen night to what the secretary of state had to say about one of the big bones of contention between the 2 countries. taiwan raised us concerns shared by a growing number of countries about the p. r. c's, provocative actions and the taiwan strait. as well as in the south and he's trying to seize on taiwan are reiterated. the longstanding us one china policy that policy has not changed. it's guided by the taiwan relations act, 3 joint communiques, the 6 assurances we do not support tie one independence we are made opposed to any unilateral changes besides the quote by either side. we continue to expect the peaceful resolution of cross rate differences. just to clarify, to now when america talks back to it's one china policy. and when china talks by

just one china policy, we're not talking about the same thing, right? as well. no, not necessarily, but also to say there in north america overlaps is not correct either. but when america talks about it's one china policy, what it means is that it recognizes about the people's republic of china is the sole government of china. but that it acknowledges its claims over taiwan. so acknowledge is not recognizing and that new ones is important. you have to think about it as a sort of rhetorical crack in the doorway that allows us to talk to both timeline and china. now when china talks about it's one china policy, it's a bit more straightforward. the p r. c is the sole government of china and taiwan is part of china. what blinking has done now is re articulated america's position that is designed to not upset the status quote that is designed to discourage both sides of from taking unilateral action. the unspoken part, of course,

being that unilateral action could provo conflict something nobody wants a few hours before blinking spoke, china is topped it from not why he was quoted saying that the u. s. was faced with a choice between cooperation and conflict. does on to me blinking his comment on taiwan show that the 2 sides have a very good conflict. again, what we've gleaned from these talks is that both sides are talking and that is better than not talk it, but they call it high wire diplomacy, for reasons. so why don't use comments notwithstanding, it's going to be important for the us in china to find a middle ground between all out cooperation and conflict. no, all cooperation. well, because you know that you have some try another strategic rivals. you know, what they want is fundamentally different. some of the things they want are diametrically opposed to each other. as such a lot, cooperation is not a reasonable proposition, but in all conflict,

that is something that everybody wants to avoid. both sides appear to be working to make sure that that is not inevitable. that said, there are issues on the table that remain live like the issue of military to military communication between the us and china that remains frozen. but now that blinking has been, that's gone a long way towards making sure these high level communication channels remain open . because those provide the groundwork for future resolution, dw correspondent janelle jamal alarm. thanks for your analysis. 9 man have pleaded not guilty to people smuggling to court in greece, following last week's migrant ship disaster. at least 20 at least 78 people are known to have died after the boat capsized. as many as 500 are still missing. it's here in a small greek town of mount acosta,
