2:04 pm
a relations between china and the us actually improve will be down to them and we asked the journalist, savvy, and customer in beijing, whether this meeting was a success from the chinese perspective. from the chinese site um, the talks were framed very positively. on the one hand, you can argue, yeah, the chinese side has an incentive to a frame them positivity. after all the lead um was flying all the way to san francisco. and you know, there was a lot of preparation going into the summit. so it, what's expected that, you know, this at least would have some results, but i would say the rhetoric that goes well beyond that. um, just after the talks, i'm a 40 minutes. the one you went to the press and stated publicly that the talks went, quote unquote, very well and even seating things, rhetoric was i would say very accommodating. he said that china is um, willing to be a pot and not into friends of the u. s. i mean,
2:05 pm
this is some graduate that we have not heard in quite a long time. and also if you look at it objectively, i mean, there were some concrete results in terms of, you know, pinto, no traffic, king china, a promise to correct on, on that. and, you know, human to human exchanges will be increased. there will be some, a i regulation talks a joint cooperation when it comes to climate talks, etc. so i would say i'm those some, it was quite a constructive and was also frank, very positive feet by the chinese side of fabia. and there are a lot of issues. meantime were china and the united states to nazi ida? i namely taiwan, gaza, ukraine, just to name a few. was there any progress there? no, not at all. i mean the major conflicts. i don't see any. you have room for compromise . i mean, the, the positions decide really a lot when it comes to taiwan. yeah. i would say a seating things, rhetoric was not as strong as before. i mean, he didn't issue a military for it,
2:06 pm
but he also make you aware the red line is and that is the independence of taiwan. and he also want the u. s. of not selling any to taiwan, but also when it comes to, um, gaza and also ukraine. um, the chinese side did not, you know, even mentioned them in the, in their hands out. and also when you know, later on in the ministry of, for in the fast the spokes person was, you know, asked to clarify if they were any progress on those issues. she basically, um, just repeated the stance of china and it has no change. so i would say in those major issues, there was not really a substantial change if i the chinese type, but that doesn't prove out that maybe those talks could lead to progress later on. okay, journalists, probably encroachment in basing. we'll leave it there. thank you so much for joining us. the un security council has adopted a binding resolution calling for urgent extended policies in the gaza strip to allow aid access. it also called on moss and israel to protect civilians,

2:08 pm
or is proof that to mass was using our chief a hospital as a c'mon center, as a mass. i'm the hospitals management denied the claims and all. but now we use while defense for us to say they have evidence behind the scenes. and we're not as well as military climb. the video shows caches of weapons and other equipment. this is left behind by the minutes tops. absolutely no business being inside the hospital. i mean, it's a my, a lot of these findings in the sheets hospital approved unequivocally that it was used for terrorism in complete violation of international law who's moved up that dean. i've been lo, me been now those and seeing how my son has dismissed israel's claims, as quote, lies and propaganda to the right of surgery. widespread international condemnation is that i, it was military incursion into on chief i hospital in guys. i city is totally
2:09 pm
unacceptable. hospitals, i have not bought 2 grounds with the humanitarian crisis in guys the becoming ever more desperate. the united nations security council adopted its 1st resolution on the conflict. 12 of the 15 members. that's the resolutions calling from urgent an extended humanitarian pauses. russia, the united states and the united kingdom, abstained the un security council resolutions are legally binding. but with feelings running high or around the calls, the pauses may well go and heard. and german authorities have carried out a series of raids on organizations with suspected links to hezbollah, which is classified as a terrorist organization. 54 sites were rated nationwide overnight. most were connected to an organization called the hamburg islamic center. authorities are
2:10 pm
examining whether it can be banned, as they say that it promotes an anti semitic, and anti is real agenda. it comes as berlin moose to stem a rash of anti semitism in the country. i made the israel moss for let's listen to what germany's interior minister had to say. was the last long fine. yeah, our measures show that we have is the most activity in germany on our radar. but again, i want to make it very clear that we are acting against as list extremism. not against any religion or state. what i'm stopped, everything else, but it's also clear that we will not tolerate any islam is propaganda. any anti submits a cool and tight israel agitation in this country finders who hits the vitamins and for more on this, let's bring indeed the use political correspond at thomas barrow. so what more do we know about these rates?
2:11 pm
thomas, as you mentioned, the name of the organization that is actually at the center of the, of these uh, rights, a handbook islamic center. it's not the only organization, but it is the main organization that was targeted as part of these raids. this organization is suspected of having a significant influence on marks. i know the organizations in germany, it's also suspected of going against germany is constitutional order, in particular, because it is suspected of supporting the activities here in germany of hezbollah, which is described as a terrorist organization. on the activities of which are actually bind here in the country. it's important to stress saw that these are ro, late suspected activities. the rates were also that to get computers, mobile phones, and all the equipment that was found in the different places that they were that they searched on. now with those items with those objects, all proteins will actually try and identify whether they can take this any step
2:12 pm
further. so for now, these rates were based on these suspicions related, specifically to based organization. and a few of those that are related to the handbook is that make sense? um, with its history, you know, germany, it seems under a lot of pressure to counter anti semitism, especially in the country. so listen there, thomas, because there is another element to these rates, namely the german officials believe that within the circles close to this, how about islamic center, that there are often cases of anti submit to claims on t is really claims. and if you look at the why, the picture this falls into the efforts that gemini on the german authorities and now carrying out to try and cub and limits on increasing and to submit to cases in the country in particular seems the will between israel and homos begun, although there are no concrete conclusive numbers on possible on to submit to casey,
2:13 pm
the parties do believe that they have increased sales. that will be gone on. this is something that is not only seen in germany. other countries in europe have also seen an increase in non semitic cases, but that is particularly relevant here in germany because of germany's history and because of germany's historical responsibility. so it's certainly something that is of concern, not only for german authorities, but by the way. also for german society, they have a nation nationwide polls repeating that germans are particularly consigned by this increase in on to submit the cases in the country. the w as political correspond to thomas sparrow. thank you. and here are some other stories making news. the spanish parliament has voted for acting prime minister pedro sanchez to form a new government. his narrow when comes after signing a controversial deal with 2 catalogs pro independence parties, the deal granted them to see 2 hundreds of separatists and exchange for the parties
