these limit for public of the wrong. with regard to the decision making or actions, water rolling does not welcome the development of conflict in the region. most of it does not interest cea with the resistance groups, decisions on how to support the part of city and nation or defend themselves, and that people against any aggression, well occupation, the whole lot seen that daughter. and for more on that let spring and middle the saddle us daniel care law, he joins us his editor in chief of the magazine dentist which focuses on the arab and the as long as the world welcome to the program, and thank you so much for joining us to me, we just heard there that statement from iran see me to try to distance themselves from this strike. i'd like to ask you financing a side. do you think the toronto strategically involved in strikes like the one of us troops in jordan? what did you make of the statement as well?

i think uh iran is involved in structuring and motivating this uh, a lions this plus the rough militias, mostly she, uh, oriented militias in the region 5. i think uh these groups also work at their own behest and have their own time table. and i think that is also the plausible deniability for the radians is also essential here. so this is more, it's a financial, it isn't logistic, it's an ideological support. but as we have seen in the past, i don't not think that iran is coordinating every individual strikes. it is not in the strategic dissertation. interest of the rain is to do that. and they see how that these groups. and these militias also operates independently. but it's actually contribute to the overall deterrents of the monitor the region. however, what happened now is the beginning of 3 a us service members, which probably did not go according to plan because before these munitions made actually show that they would inflict harm and that they would provoke the

americans. but make sure that they wouldn't cross a certain red line. and the killing of us servicemen is certainly a red line that the americans need to respond. and that's uh, that puts also the wrong spot. and now there are reports that are run back to fighters in east syria, have started evacuating their post in anticipation of a us counter strike. do you expect washington to launch airstrikes there? what sort of us response could be activated as well? you know, the, the, the, the fighting, the shuttle wall that is going on between the states and its outlaw eyes and the, so they run back by the shows in the region is very complex. and it's happening on may on, on various phones that happens in syria. and the syrian jordanian border of specifically the triangle for the bond between the rock, syria and jordan happens in iraq and other places i've just returned from baghdad. and last week they, well, i wasn't backed up. there was a us strike on a she, a militia group, se backed out in a place called just a saw her,

which killed several, a ledge, administer a man. and i think this attack could be seen as a response to that. you as a tech, which itself was a response to an attack on the, on the as a base in and iraq. so this conflict escalates on various funds in various countries. and it's very difficult for the respective governments of these countries to stay out of it. they don't want to be drawn into the certainly not iraq, certainly not jordan, but uh, we have seen a number of board incidents and it's, it's so far it seems like most of the, most of the fighting is happening in syria itself and see you're in territory but it can happen elsewhere too, as we see. and it's interesting because we've seen since mazda is tara tax on october 7th, and israel's responsive guys with the vast majority of world leaders and diplomats have stressed the importance of preventing a wider regional escalation. as you've highlighted there, would you say that this has been a failure? are the stakes being made as a lot of mistakes are being made?

but um, but the fact that you want to prevent a major regional escalation, uh, doesn't mean that, that you would not act in self defense. so in response to, to some of those attacks of the logic is on the one on all sides. one to prevent a major regional escalation. on the other hand, they do tit for tat whenever they being attacked, they want to strike back and these like retribution strikes the major home can happen and this can lead to another escalation. so whereas many potters in the region, not all of them, by the way, want to avoid the regional escalation. the regional escalation is happening and this is unfortunately the logic of deterrence and of retribution that we have been seeing for a long time for american to run this can result in a major problem because at one point they would either have to engage and really meaningful diplomatic negotiations, how to prevent this from happening or we would see this being taken to another level. so you mentioned the multiple strikes and responses and i'd like to know how you see the strike now in jordan. does this drones strike me and another front has

now opened off in the already volatile miller middle east, or do you expect this? could potentially be a one off that can be contained or so the, the front already exists and the not with regard to jordan, but mainly with regard to syria until iraq with these militias operate. in the case of a rock against the will of the government in the case of syria, with a certain consent and support of the government. but this place where the strike happens is a strategically very important place. it's in the eastern body, i like this, the southern desert of syria, as i mentioned before, triangle based between the rock, jordan and syria and the americans had been there initially to fight assigning states militants so called dies from this area. and it's become some sort of a no man's land because the americans are there. and of course nobody should move any closer to the base without taking the risk of being attacked. then you have these groups that are saying that fighting american occupation of syrian territory,

and i said it's a no man's land with many refugees. people that are being left alone with little to no you minute, terry and support. but nobody wants to move out of this region either. so i don't think it's a new front. i think it's it, but it's in it's, it's in strategically important place that one sort of, you know, be careful to contain some really important context. there middle east expert daniel guy last, thank you so much for that analysis and tearing your expertise. we appreciate it. thank you. on the go shaders. have met in paris to discuss a deal between israel and to mos that could see hostages released and extended ceasefire. and the gaza strip protestors in israel had been ramping up the pressure on the government to bring home the hostages. is really officials to strive this talks as quote, constructive. but the office of prime minister benjamin netanyahu says there are significant gaps between the 2 sides. and the discussions will continue this week. officials from egypt guitar and israel are taking part in the us led tox. a

pretty the fund work agency. this measure is extremely dangerous. i mean, it is our hope that that would be provide us with most calls in the snow falls from the homes by the fighting people here. a more dependent on the agencies help than ever the head of and raw has wound that if money doesn't stop flowing again soon, it's what will grind to a hole in a matter of weeks. and here are some other stories making headlines. protests in the south african city of johannesburg, have held a vigil to honor journalists killed in the conflict between israel and tomas journalist called for better protection for their colleagues and gaza. writes groups say that at least $83.00 media workers have been killed since the conflict began in october. the foreign ministers of pakistan and iran have agreed to improve security cooperation after deadly cross border strikes between the neighbors. ron's

the money which was earmarked to buy motor shells. the security service says that 5 people have been charged, and one person detained while trying to cross the premium border. with a group of women in russia are staging regular protest who demands the return of their husbands and sons from ukraine. they have different views on the war with some claiming to support it. others, more skeptical. all are united than the belief that their relatives have done their fair share of the fighting. and should be allowed to come home to determine to do you have to, as a matter fact, marie andre, of anthem does, with the us, that russians whose husbands, what mobilized one to to least allow us as a to of the unknown soldier. this is read too old, but i protest because they belong to the husband. so i have been fighting and ukraine for more than a year to finally come home. they do it. why not? there's a war going on. people are dying,

they're just the average people. men who were called jobs during the partial mobilization. we can pretend but they're not dying. they're the deal with these. so i need some new and you know, she calls a women's initiative the way home, maria, and very, very simply even took it to the campaign office of president vladimir putin. and he is a traveler in motion. so right now i there should my husband come back for both? your husband is defending our homeland and what will i get back? and man without legs and arms isn't a single man. how are you talking about your husband? you don't even know what's going on. the women want to get through to pool with the i protest the president when the outage annual re celebrate that also looks christmas with a select group of completely different women. everything's there was how much money

is made to move you as you know and seen our brave, who really commends this to our boys to ski. and that's a worry. it's a rush of fighting for the interest of our country even now. so it was during the holidays to do so. that's listed on the initiative has been around for months about doing the research base as a women have sharpened because they are tune at 1st they will not explicitly against the civil only in favor of their husbands coming back. now is there a demanding an end to call me at the same school, but almost 20 minutes or so its symptomatic, we see similar on your end, but the areas of society, of young people are becoming increasingly dissatisfied. pension is, are increasingly worried about rising food prices, the walrus, causing more a mall constant nation intentions of the show. and, but that doesn't mean that people are ready to take to the street from us suite to

know what it means, you know, facing the situation that russia is currently in a different place to. so thoughts difficult, so don't suggest that goes on and go. so i'm stuck with this turn into a big a movement of most of the problem is, is that russia is a very large country. those to, to organize an old russian movement. you need profit infrastructure process. these women have many, the infrastructure never lead them. you need to, they refuse to give up the women now it takes to the streets every set to the not only he and most good, but also in st. petersburg limits. we have to come back again and write lots of protest letters to exert massive pressure. now is exactly the right moment to add these to it's, that's the moment, is the presidential election in less than 2 months time would be crammed and hasn't yet intervened in the protest, but the fed,

quick change could be clean and that's getting more on that. we're doing ready to use your shadow. who filed that report? you're a was our moscow bureau chief before dw was banned from reporting and russia. he joins us now from riga. so what exactly to the russian women that we saw in that report want to achieve? well, 1st of all, some of these women want to their husbands to return home from the front. those mobilized man has been fighting for a while. as the women say, they should be replaced to sponsor for my patient. is that that's their main demand . we don't know how many of these women are also calling for an end to the war, but at least some of them, like many young people who we just seen in the report at dallas to the point of the so called a special new generation. and on demanding an end to the uh, we don't know how wide with these views are present at the national society. exactly, because there are no reliable surveys. what we do know is if it's most ross and support president clinton, obviously, according to both states, independent of the new research institutes. in other words, these women tend to,

to present a smaller section of the site. but the other, then it's difficult. we have to say it's risky to protest in russia, but you know, we're seeing them protesting openly, even in moscow's red square. they must be afraid of being arrested. absolutely, it's dangerous to protest in las vegas added. especially even the capital most good bought at the same time i, i see that the kind of probably doesn't want to be trust of women being arrest upright in front of the kremlin to go around the gold rushes presidential election less than 2 months away. nobody doubts of it put in will be elected, but it's sure to look as legitimate and free as possible. and maybe maybe it's of the kremlin static now to say, okay, well let's, let's say we've been protest off the old be leaving the free society or a free country, especially since we're not talking about tens of thousands of protest us here. as we did a few years ago, we've protest organized by the position politician of only bought about a 1000 or perhaps

a few 100 women. these women obviously poses no real threat to put in not to get as long as they are, protest doesn't become a mass protest. could this potentially grow into a larger anti war movement as well? so basically yes. and the pro discount to grow. we had, in my report from the political science is that, uh, is that also all the angry people. so i think the groups of people in russian pensioners to young people and so on. but the needs to be organized in russia. on the other hand, the whole political field has been cleaned up to the opposition is almost nonexistent. what small russians, i'm not interested in politics generally more than 20 as a foot and haven't made any interest in politics disappear, plus even 2 years off to the start of the war. not all russians aware of it, stars a full little boy is quite stable, as well as russia state o income's stable. people hardly notice or don't want to notice the people at the village who do know it is and protest. it's all risk and very frequent including

the women or ask them because it could only be in but all the time before the 2 are punished. the police are still letting them protest. uh the question is for how long? the w z r ava shadow and reba. thank you. according hong kong has ordered china property giant ever ground to over to undergo liquidation. the judge linda chan said that the company would have to wind up its business because of a lack of progress on putting forward a viable restructuring proposal. massive, sprawling, unfinished for years now, no work has been done on any of the sites with chinese realistic joined eval grant . once planned to build homes for millions of want to be home owners and likely know worth will be done for a long time. as the property developer is being wound up in the most spectacular corporate downfall in china, us history. it all started here in tension,

especially economic zone, while the chinese communist party was experimenting with capitalism. here, advert glenda selling to the 1996 at a time of china. that's great organization. when millions from all across the country flocks towards the cities, it led to a housing boom like any of the world had ever seen. ever grand was fast to build signed apartment projects, but not fast enough to satisfy demand the company except the down payments for apartments. it never built. soon after that money was gone, much of it spent on more products for future development on banking fees, in a desperate effort to raise more cash. and on executive pay, the turn of a grants phone, the we call young into one of the worlds wealthiest people. in the midst of liquidity crisis, have a grand found itself on the able to pay its bills to construction workers, painters and real estate agents. soon the company's dead snowballed into

$140000000000.00 for the construction was halted. and while the cords rule over advert, glance future, giant developments cit. unfinished insiders estimate, they can hold up to 1400000000 people. and let's bring in frasier, highly now and independent commentator and co author of red capitalism. the fragile financial foundations of china is extraordinary. rise, he joins us from edinburgh. welcome to the program, and i just want to pick up on what we heard in the end of our report there. that number is hard to believe that the empty housing stock that ever ground built could house 1400000000 people that's according to an inside or is that really the scale that we're talking about? or to be honest i, i never knows i can trust those numbers because the testing, so incredible. whenever you think about it, and for the event again, if you said it was a 100000000 people, 200000000 people, half a 1000000 people,

all of those numbers seem incredible. and so are the true or not. the reality is they have a huge number of projects that are on finished. we know that is biased over supplying the chinese system. and all is really telling you is how difficult it's going to be for the property sector to turn it right. when you know the following population in china, and yet huge, huge over supply, talk with us about those wider implications for the chinese economy. how much pain are we potentially talking about here? well, of course, the whole lose. there's obviously use today right over time. this is not a new story. i'm ever going to touch on actual problems for many years now. i've talked many other property developers, so there is no immediate change of it just simply discovered something today. what we have seen is, but this has been a huge drag on growth in china and will continue to be so profit has been a huge driver over the past decade and before it's been a store of high sold well for much of the middle class. and that situation, it started turning a right. so you know that we're not, this isn't just

a bubble offering. this is a slow, a train wreck that's going to continue to have it packs and the chinese economy for years i had. and what does that mean for the global economy? you think? well, what it means is that china is simply no longer this easy must be in china growing, you know, medical economy trying to use girl is china will still remain and is a very large economy. it's still the biggest, you know, bite of certain things, the biggest sell or some things manufacture of certain things. so it's going to be very specific built by sector by sector company by company. you know, how important is china to me going forward and simply no longer i must be in china . now if you're a corporate executive to think broke this trying to really make sense for us anymore. how much of a problem could this become to the chinese government and farseason paying himself? yeah, i think the big problem comes when, you know you're talking about all those. but you're in your report mentioned this.

they've taken a lot of money upfront from people to but as dying payments are full payment for properties, and this was their business model, this wasn't just this, all the developers were doing this. and so you have a lot of people across china august, the parties and millions of people who pick during money and i've got nothing in return. and you know, some buildings haven't even started. so that's a real social, as you know, social on rest issue, which is going to be from place to place location to location. so i think it is going to be a continual head, a part of government. and it's also going to make liquidation, all of them are harder even if you get over legal are those you've been got to just deal with look. ready government vested interest and trying to pass the 5 people, but its creditors will just be asking for their money back. now what happens to all those credit cards? i mean, they're not getting their money back. all right, i, the bottom line is, are right. they're not getting their money back. i think anyone who's still holding a guy ever drawn day or has bought into over the past few years, must know it's a huge fund. they're going to get few cents back on the dollar. if anything,

i know they say, i think if i think the government in china are in sound like i'm a local government, i'm going to be interested in trying to get some assets to i sold to pre diary money or for the flat. i'm the reality is that they are not nice to get to be high on the candidates are legal standing and so it's a very difficult problem going forward. we're seeing it, we're going to see a huge close to the ground. we're going to see problems with other developers who are already in trouble. and as i say, this is going to by millside on the right to the can only go to china for years to come face, or how we independent expert on the chinese academy. thank you. thank you very much . i. so you're watching dw news. a quick reminder of our top story. the united states president's joe biden has blamed a wrong fact militants for the death of 3 american troops in each round attack. you're a based on jordans border with syria fight invalid. the u. s. would respond to the strength more countries are suspending funding to the united nations agency for
