dish manager. welcome to the the news aisha. i'm glad you could join us china and city. i have agreed to a strategic partnership during a meeting between city and lead to a bus on a sub and chinese president she jumping off of is in china on his 1st visit to the country. since 2004, china has been a loyal becca of us as regime, giving a diploma ethics support of the un to through the past decade of the city and civil war. also the also joined china's belton road initiative last year and is looking for chinese health in reconstruction efforts in syria, a gentleman off a mall from london is hired, hired. he is a city and columnist and a consulting fellow with the middle east and all the african program at chatham house. there's a hide. what does bush out, a sub hate to get out of his trip to china?

well, thank you for having me. i think the domain of justice as a was to get out of this are, so there's a booth, it's the, the tennessee internationally. and uh, you'll have to remember that this meeting has a basically is happening after a recent diplomatic relations have to be restored with a countries in the region. so now i send this trying to restore, is this the messy or because there's going to see internationally and the other objective is related to convincing the try not to return and resume. it's a financial, i'm going to be active. it is in syria and engage and rebuilding reconstructing. sorry. what is the chinese interest here in playing along and helping by side as a,

as well, i think the, the, the main objective from china is perspective is dramatic. one. uh, china is most likely using those in order to challenge at the, for it so carried on by the us among other western countries to continue to maintain a such diplomatic solution. so it's a, in a sense, a low to the u. s. efforts rather than the really and clear objective from their side to change their position on syria on the resume, it's their financial activities there. i don't see the chinese government for now. when they're thinking about a resuming, they're going to be active. it is there because the main challenges doctors and i'm

just trying to inches have not been addressed yet. can you speak a bit more about china's role in the making these to bear the wider role there? because in march, it really came into prominence after china immediately to do with being so the area and it on. so what does china really want to do in the middle east? yeah, that's a, that's a really great question. i think at 1st of all, china has play and then come in a bigger role in the, in the region for, for many years. but um, as well, uh, china has been trying to do at least uh, which became theater since the beginning of this year is that they want to expand their diplomatic rules and the reason on the sides it was a deal. they broke between fresh a story between and so the and you're on there. but then off to their success in the, basically anything that you at the start to expanding the provide that quote and

the reason. so they invited that is right, he's on the list and he ends on they have been engaging with both sides. now it seems that they are trying to basically expand their diplomatic drugs that within the basically so yeah, context and we're going to defense conflict there as well. i'd like to speaking about. so if you think about this expanded goal in the middle east, i just thought you'd like to look at paintings rolled into well, because before but shut out has a be, i'm sorry before, but i'll also be aging was hosting vintage. we're gonna need to nicholas my doodle, 88 in president the brain, right? you see, as well as i'm russian officials, do you read this as kind of the attempt to court lead, as we've been ostracized by the western project itself as a legitimate paula center in the world? i think, yeah, it's safe to to say that the because now china has been trying to basically

and resolved on those who have the year. and i us and the wisdom position and build a coalition with them in order to become the main driver onto the us. on others as well. i'd like to speak you within the context of what's happening now about china and russia, that's no limits. bought the ship that was agreed to by both countries at the start of the ukraine war, russia to, particularly in the context of syria, has been back in president bashar assad. and now trying to has expressed interest in having some sort of a connection where there's a budget on us of maybe in reconstruction efforts. do you see some sort of an ex is forming between paging moscow and domestic goods that works in domestic is, has favor. uh yes, but we have to remember the, the brushes and the chinese corporation when it comes to syria does not stop.

just now. at china as being supporting the rest of it for us to improve in the u. s. among other countries, from a challenging assets author at q or a making at the resolution and the my and his position and sir. yeah, so china has a v to him at many you and motions. the so the on site side to all the conflict on those motions were also v to it by they, by nurse as well. so this is fair to close of their, their relationship to be at a historical not just right now does not start right now within this context, it's safe to say that yeah, they are expanding on, on the sort of understanding and cooperation in order to be

formalize the corporation and expand that to improve other countries as well. we'll leave it there for the time being. but thank you so much for joining us today. hi, pride in london. thank you, sir. a john, how's going influence in asia has done a lot to bring countries close up together. even militarily, southeast asian countries are holding their 1st joins when the 3 exercises against the background of hyphens. tensions with bathing. we all see on drills are taking place off the coast of indonesia, near the mouth tune the islands, indonesia, move them from a part of the south china sea where there are overlapping teddy total claims. china sees it has sold them to rights to most of the area, but the water is border many oscar on countries, and they can test page explains this is where of the nation. so joining forces for the 1st adverb block as close if nibble as of size. it comes at the time

this and are being very careful not to provo, china too much with this 1st exercise. the 5th time initially planted the edge of assault china sea. indonesia relocated the exercise, often a tune, the islands to steer clear potential objections from being regarding the disputed region. so it's important to note that conducting exercises in the south china seas prohibited it is critical to maintain a sense of balance. expanding to doing so could be perceived as aligning with the united states in the past of in countries had health joint exercises, but the u. as in brush of this members on the drill is intended to demonstrate all the ends neutrality in the us, china conflict. well, also showing unity against china the ation games begin in china based saturday and the asset to be a historic and but this is the 1st time video game players or east sports
