4:05 am
also been found. undeclared sites, fronts has issued an international arrest warrant for the syrian president, bashar al assad, for alleged crimes against humanity. aside is accused of ordering chemical attacks near damascus and 2013, which killed more than 1400 people. to the u. s. has released this footage of a series of air strikes launched against targets, an eastern syria on sunday. the us as it targeted a training cap and other facilities used by the iranian revolutionary guard court. it says it is responding to a tax on us basis in syria and iraq to the us know where president joe biden says he's made real progress and talks with china's leadership region pain. they met for 4 hours during a summit of asia pacific nations in san francisco. their 1st encounter in person in a year. both leaders say they want to improve to strained relations between the 2
4:06 am
super powers. they 9 snoo cooperation in areas including narcotics, ai, and avoiding military misunderstandings. there are still tensions over trades on china's territorial claims on ty, one biden stress, the importance of stability in the taiwan strait. but as always, he said to us on china, we try to communicate better both fit for logically and personally. we're re assuming military to military contact, direct contacts as to why the press no follow this. that's been cut off has been were worse, and that's how accidents happen. misunderstandings, so we're back to direct open, clear direct communications and the rest of the direct bases. in the months of head, we're going to continue to preserve and pursue high level diplomacy. the p. r. c, in both directions. keep the lines of communication open, including between present sheets and me. he and i agree that these are what else
4:07 am
could pick up the phone call directly. i'm with you heard me about journalists pop in, crash, mar was monitoring the events for us from beijing and dw own us correspondent jeanette melon was in the san francisco. i asked her whether by didn't got what he wanted from the talks. so i think it's important to realize from the outset that the dividing administration took pains to manage expectations ahead of this meeting. it was almost as if they wanted the key outcome of this meeting to be the meeting itself to be able to show that these 2 leaders are able to talk to one another. but as far as i can tell, he divided his remarks into 2 areas. so one dealing with the outcomes where he can point to certain kinds of achievements where he's able to say that they've agreed on areas of cooperation. he mentioned, he mentioned narcotics. you mentioned military to military communication. he also mentioned artificial intelligence and with the other half of the speech, he mentioned concerns like what he sees as china is provocative activities in the
4:08 am
south china sea and around taiwan as well as human human rights issues. and americans to detain ease in china, where he was careful to say no agreement had been reached on those. but going back to the things that he wanted, that he managed to achieve. 2 of those are very key military to military communication. this was a key in for bite, and because of having that communication backup minimizes, of course, the chance of miscalculation the chance that these 2 sides will misunderstand each other and could somehow explode into conflict. the other one was of course, so very important for biden as well in terms of getting she to agree to co operate with him, the on restricting the flow of precursor chemicals used to make offend to know. we know that the us is reeling from it over a crisis. so in being able to bring this up, fight in is going to be able to show american voters that he still has
4:09 am
a domestic concerns on his vide, even as he battles it out, or talks it out rather the change in ping on the geo political stage. so all i know she did get some of what he wanted, and this is something that bite in administration will definitely highlight in the coming days as a successful summit. this is a nice, probably, unless get the china perspective from you. well, where the stakes, where she going into this meeting? well, there's a lot at stake also from the point of view of seating thing. um let me point out just 2 aspects. um the 1st one regarding the economy. i mean, china is really suffering from um, you know, the, uh, worsening um, relationship with the west end is that, uh, specifically with the us. um for example, uh, chinese tech companies. they are suffering from the, you know, export control of their cut off from u. s. technology, but also west and west us. right now they are holding back their money. i'm the
4:10 am
international companies, they are pointing out their profit from the chinese market. so seating thing has a lot of incentives to, you know, repair it. it's tice with um, um the u. s, so you can see that the community and the numbers um, just several years ago, a china was basically on a trajectory to a bypass the u. s. in terms of gdp in terms of absolute numbers. now that seems rather unlikely. um, the china, china has slipped down to just 64 percent of the u. s. level of gdp. so that is really very key, but even more essentially, i think also in china you have an increasing amount of experts, the intellectual, it's academics who say that a wall between those 2 countries could be more likely. and we have to be careful. and i think for this, you know, communication and a higher level of communication is essential to prevent any further escalation. you know, janelle, the dispute over taiwan was probably the most explosive issue on the agenda,
4:11 am
or at least one of them, a white house official has nice said that she indicated in that meeting that china is not preparing to invade taiwan. how big of a deal is this for the us? so it is quite a big deal and taiwan is a one of those topics that will always come up when the us china have to talk to one another for she's part it was important for him to hear from us again that the us does not in fact support the taiwanese independence that the u. s. is not looking to back any particular party or candidates when on the time when he is a go to elections next year. now, for joe biden support, he was interested in getting reassurance from. she didn't think that it would not do that, that china would not do anything to force the us his hand in terms of having to
4:12 am
defend taiwan if the event of an attack came. so the fact that she did say that they were not going to attack to one is something that could, that could potentially be a big source of relief for the us at the moment. now we know that the u. s. is currently supporting you create and as a, as it defends itself against russia, it's also supporting israel and it's about old with home us. and really, you know what the us does not want at this particular moment is any other theatre of conflict opening up, whether it's in the, in the pacific or anywhere else. so any reassurance of that shooting thing could provide him on that front would be welcome to use for the white house. i'm fabi and coming back to you, china has long painted the us as its main adversary, but at the start of this meeting, she took. so much of a softer tone, stressing the importance of china's relationship with us. kindness be seen as some
4:13 am
was of um, a piece offering or an olive branch if you will, split maybe to some degree. but if you look into the details, i think it's small ambivalent. i'm at the point example here, the public messaging towards the chinese people. it was rather we have to respect each other, but it should not provoke each other and also not cross the red lines. so i think the emphasis is a little bit different, but yet some of the, you know, statements by seating ping, according to the chinese read out what quite modest. he said that china has no plan to surpass the u. s. and also, um that, you know, the speaking of to accommodate both countries and that we don't want to, you know, endanger the position of the u. s. i mean those, those statements are rafa you know, um, yeah, i would say i'm reaching out and diplomatically but um, but let me also emphasize it. but there was a lot of mentioned about the areas of cooperation. if you look at the chinese readout, it's also important to note that what's,
4:14 am
what's nothing mentioned. and in the chinese statements, you cannot hear a word about ukraine. also the conflict and gaza was not mentioned. and that gives you an idea that on those areas, i mean there's definitely no priority in cooperating with the us. that was journalist probably in crash more in beijing and dw us correspondent to now to mile on in san francisco. you're watching dw news. here's a reminder of our top story. israel defense forces have released a video which they save cruise, that how mosque was using jobs as all she's a hospital as a command center. differentiate shows, weapons, and other equipment. they say is rarely troops. i'm covered in a rage on the territories biggest medical facilities come off, denies the claim, the
