expert on china and taiwan. it's politics and manager of the project. taiwan is a pioneer at the university of to you. thank you for joining us. the united states says it wants to speed speed up military delivery to tie one is the us doing this to avoid another ukraine scenario somehow? well, somehow probably in the long run, the probably not in the direct line. you're just screaming here, the commitment to time and goes beyond that ukraine scenario. however, it's a clear symbol from the u. s. to us alliances in the region, especially to taiwan and especially to japan. they are joining forces in defending time one here. and how do you think the move will impact washington's relations with, with, with beijing as well, let's not be. yeah, i'm realistic here. they are frozen anyway. and so there are many angles where both,

let's say super powers are in stress and there are discrepancies on both sides tie one is one part of it, and i think the clear symbol here. so yeah, is, is this a part for tie one, maybe, as you said, also to say, well, we're not going to have another ukraine crisis. please do not move any further on taiwan because we are standing with this alliance and aligned in democracies. and is there any kind of reaction we can expect from china on this? i mean, they're not going to be happy as you've been saying. of course they are not going to be happy, but let's not forget the china is dealing still with a lot of is with themselves the teen young at fed, the yeah. for him. and so that changed back to one e and also now one of those major security guards just died. we don't know of what, so i'm pretty sure they will have a reaction. they are not happy about it and they will strengthen their position. and so, and the contradiction, they will not be able to solve easily. china will strength from the one china

principal, a gender, and will say that they are not happy with it. however, the us will stay on that strategic equity by these role symbols and all of this lead actions to support tie ones in specially tie one's self defense. knowing that they will have a problem with it and waiting for a long well a to come to the wrong study. site is 90 days. china wants to attack and $48.00 out . so i think we have a we have a worsening tension coming up here. yes, well i, i can't remember which military strategist it was who says if you want peace, prepare for war. uh, there's more preparation for war taking place here in your estimation, does this make more more likely the old tensions all military confrontations will make war more likely? yes, however,

there are also powers working against this. by showing that we work on the preparedness and taiwan is also running on this popular pine agendas to say we are not easy to swallow, so stay away. we are preparing ourselves and trying to gather the citizens, to not only have military drills, but also to get pre pad in times of the invasion to um, well defend and we're talking also about medical support training camps. we talk about reza, vist at guns, so i think that's the story usually not see when we talked about how i went getting prepared to defend themselves. okay. yeah. so it's very, very extensive josie, about the past year. thanks for that expert on china and taiwan politics. yeah, very welcome. thank you so much. let's bring you up to date now on some other stories making news around the world. typo and doc story is battering china with

heavy rain and high winds. is one of the strongest storms to hit in years or than 400000 people have been evacuated in south eastern food. jen, province, travel there has been disrupted schools and business is closed, and people have been advised to stay indoors. police in the proving capital lima have clashed with protesters demanding the resignation of interim president, dean and blue ark. she's taking extra powers following months of demonstrations, calling for the release of a jail former leader pedro castillo. the salvage crews are preparing to tow away a cargo ship that has been burning often dodge coasts. for days freighter will be taken to a new location in the north sea vessel, as carrying nearly 4000 cars among them. 500 electric vehicles is thought they may have started the fire. opponents of germany's far write a f d party are rallying and protest outside it's annual congress. the

a f. d or alternative for germany has seen a search in his approval ratings. reason pool, put public support at 22 percent. second only to the main conservative opposition brought the if these, especially popular in eastern germany among the demonstrators are a group calling themselves granny's against the right. the congress is being held in the eastern city of make the berg some of the marchers told us why they are protest. this is why it's important because the app is getting stronger and stronger. i'm have to do something about it. uh the husband was think it's incredibly important to be here today and to tell our children's and grandchildren's generation the to live in a great democratic country. still all in democratic crowds isn't on the claim. no body can be found me because i don't identify with it and i think you should also make up know when to invite to a and dw politic political correspond. it rather, thomas barrow told me more about what's been happening at the congress,

essentially pro, just a 0 on the 100 in see if the party a party they can say to, to be racist a non to democratic. but it's not only about that. it's also about about presenting more diverse image of government society. now it's important to stress that we are in the city of mounted burgundy, eastern part of germany, where the ac has actually one of its phone calls. it's in the eastern part of the country where the i, if these strongest on what these people, he actually a trying to to say are actually trying to stress is precisely that, that of the view of germany that are the view of the eastern part of the country now the a, if these, meanwhile meeting the far away from here. and they are discussing the proposals for the european condiments elections next year. so basically what we're seeing here is 2 versions of what germany should be like, the one inside the hole where the a, the has the meeting. i know the one where we're seeing right here with people are against the if the party i was just mentioning a surgeon to pull to around 22 percent of what's driving that nationwide.

essentially, dissatisfaction, dissatisfaction on the one hand with the federal government, but also generally dissatisfaction about the way germany is now heading. they cannot make really, politically, people are rather concerned about about the future of the country. and you see that also in several polls. people are concerned about the way that the federal government is dealing with different issues nationally, for example, the energy crisis, but also internationally the role that many plays in the war in ukraine on that is something that the, the has actually profited from that. those fios or those concerns that many germans have. it's however important again to express the coffee at that this is only part of the picture here in, in germany you have the sd, which is supposing that around 20 percent. but there are many of us were actually against the far right party who are trying to present as we stress a picture of a more diverse gemini. and speaking of these other political forces,

how are the more, well, the main stream parties responding to this rise of the f t? that's actually a very important question because the debate in germany has been very intense in the last few days. and in the last few weeks about how the part is to deal with the if the, especially at the time when the i f, d is searching in the pulse for now, most parties have to stress that they want to continue with a band on the a if the, basically what's his private as a firewall not cooperating with the, the under any circumstances. but at the same time you're hearing initial voice is by those who say that may be dr. change on a case by case basis that you basically can't ignore a party that has the support of around 20 percent of the german population. so they said that the page that is growing here in germany, that is going to continue on that it has to do with the fact that parties that debating how to deal with the the a party that by the way, is also being observed observed by japanese domestic intelligence agency trying to determine whether the a c or part of the a, these actually considers onyx treatment spots. okay,
