the, the, they say the news line from berlin, china's president, was africa as need does better estimate engaging children paying for almost as deeper ties and billions of dollars. the also says he helped create a 1000000 jobs across africa. also coming up for francis signs a declaration to fight the latest intelligence, but the head of se page shows largest. most francis isn't engineers here on the 12 the region and donald trump holds the town hall meeting on friendly, tough with us network fox news. but with a temp this john says, you know, tons foamed presidential race the

i did a span of do welcome would begin in china where it's anita, she june thing has pledge of financing, but more than 50000000000 dollars to africa over the next 3 years. as somebody engaging, he don't african leaders, he wants to deepen cooperation with them on infrastructure and trade. president, cheese at china would help create 1000000 jobs across the continent. more than 50 african leaders as well as un secretary general, antonio good. that is attending the badging summit. the level who has some of the chinese need, i have to say a fool. so you guys see china africa relations are now at their best period in history. looking to the future, i propose what raising china is bilateral relations with all african countries that

have diplomatic ties to the level of strategic relationship, signing the binding sheets and following developments from our eastern shelby to entire phase the, the respondent james j to james present. she has promised $50000000000.00 and a 1000000 jobs in africa. what does he expect in a ton piper as well? just to reiterate some of those key outcomes that we have from shooting things, speech, the china africa for. and as you mentioned that some $50000000000.00 us dollars a fresh financing for the african concepts and no, as long as those $1000000.00 in new jobs uses. and the china was willing. so, you know, actually increase market sizes for those african countries. and this is something that those african nations that have travel to badging for this fuss summit to be. however, since 2018 we're really looking for in this context where chinese investments in africa has actually been declining over the past couple of years from those historic highs. that we saw during the mid 20 times in the context is while it has

to be set of web as more competition with the us and europe, for instance, structure investments into the african coincidence, a much proposals, many proposals, many ideas put forth by fusion, paying this form the question will be going forward, how will they make sure they come to fruition? is that all connected to his proposal to elevate ties with those countries that china has diplomatic relations with to the level of a strategic relationship as well? or absolutely, while it has to be reiterated, of course, all african countries have attended this summit. but one dots as what see, this is a country that, of course, meantime, have been things diplomatic ties with taiwan, the republic of china. this is something that's really critical in terms of the political messaging that we're getting out of the countries as a speech during the summer. it's the president of south africa reiterating at the end of the speech, the one china policy that his country abides by. and so there will be questions

going forward about whether this summer and the economic proposals that got to put forward will come with some type of political costs to you. and 2nd, to general antonio good data is heather johns. to address the summit. what did he have to say? exactly the un secretary general pain said really a picture of this. somebody taking place at a time of global instability. what efforts to multilateralism are really coming up against significance huddles? crucially, the one of the most important things he really zeroed in on his speech was assigned to that. he said that the financial, the international financial system needed to be reformed to deal with the problems facing the well today. not as the world was during the end of the 2nd world war. one of the crucial things he mentioned in relation to this was this idea that african countries are inadequate access to debts, relief, something which has been a recipe, he sense of social unrest. and we've seen that play out in african countries over the past couple of months now it's a be 10 year, which of course has been lied in social unrest because of significant debt buttons,

which they have, which led them to raise a tax buttons on their own people, it has to be said, the world bank is kind of his largest credit set up. but of course, china is also a significant credit. so, and that will be something that some of these african nations will be looking at very carefully as they move forward with these proposals, and depending that size but china really, i would leave it there for the moment. well, thanks so much for joining us today. jim j to in type a, a bolt francis on his to our southeast asia has signed a declaration with the grand mom of indonesia, east mccloud, moss, the declaration bones against using religion to still conflict. frances, it's the laws they most them country to move up to its promise of hominy in diversity and fights, religious intolerance. the debit card responding to your mouth as ease in jakarta. he said the message of religious harmony from francis was loud and care or

a spontaneous kiss on the head from the great e mom. here at is take all most games. arcada. it was probably the most moving moments on his visits during an ego so far and a great symbol of religious. how many here in town is like almost southeast asia as large as most and it's located right opposite to the capital. it can see people here in town, indonesia, a good start for the pope's visit to southeast asia, because he made inter religious dialogue. one of his t pillows of the visit, an image. that's a good example for that because it's not just the multi ethnic but also a multi religious country. and catholics are only 3 percent. so 8000000 people here in indonesia a bought the catholic religion is one of the 6 religions recognized as a referral, official religions in indonesia. and now representatives of the 6 religions were here. it is to go a most where the pope signed a common declaration that basically send out the message that one of that warrant

the world that religions should not be recognized should not be misused in conflict . and that also stated that the environment needs to be protected. a lot more efforts need to be done to protect the environment of the pope was in good spirits here at his visit. he smiled in last shaken, lot of hands. but after all, this is only the beginning of his 12th day trip to southeast asia. kind of want to get a box. is there a quick look now at some of the stories making headlines around the world? germany is boosting. it's a defenses with an advanced system it has already delivered to ukraine. the iris fee is going into service in northern germany. the system protects against enemy drones aircraft, and crews by size jones, the old, off troll stress, the germany will not come back on military aid to ukraine, to the u. s. as in directed to employees of russian state media network r t. i need both sanctions on it. stop editors that accused of seeking to influence the members presidential election. the us attorney general to have the to charge

with conspiring to commit money laundering and violating the modern agents registration act. starts with conspiring to commit money. we're saying that us where donald trump has held a townhome on friendly, tough on the fox news channel. the events took place is from faces the from the phone grace for the white house. the former president has watched his need and opinion fools evaporates and still barking, endorsed vice president come to harris as democratic party nominee. the 2 arrivals will come face to face next tuesday and their fast tv debates. and so obviously for these and let's get mall from my dw steven bid, steve from us election team. steven morning rush wants to talk to you in this event . what were your main takeaways versus wasn't just friendly turf? this was a hosted by sean hannity. someone who is styled himself is an unofficial advisor to donald trump. it's very clear that this was a campaign event masquerading as

a town hall. you had lots of tears, lots of whooping for him. there were no questions actually from the audience the whole time, at least in the 1st hour. we learned later that some questions were asked to be here tomorrow on sean hannity show. basically, what stands out is this is really preparation for the debate that's coming up. this is how trump likes to prepare. he likes his name, chance he likes, he's one side of events. but he also likes to insist that the other side, the complet harris isn't ready for the stage that she is not prepared that she is not. he's still in the, she's going to fail on the stage. and part of doing that is one suggesting that she knows the questions beforehand coming up to the debate that is going to be deceptive. what's going on there? another excuse me, another is by talking up about the preparations around the debate, whether they're going to be allowed to stand, be seated. if there's going to be a live mike on the whole time. these issues that really sort of suggests that the other side is trying to manipulate the terms of the debate. and then of course, finally, by having this great big stage, this big presentation that you call

a town hall and say i'm here, i'm available, i'm not hiding anything. the other side, however, they're trying to work the details of this coming to be one of the things stood out brush. most of america on this day was talking about a shooting that happened, another school shooting in the state of georgia. 4 people killed, i believe, from a 14 year old with a gun. this was barely mentioned in this debate. it just shows gun control, still not a viable issue for this party and for this candidate. so what can we expect from just a bit next tuesday? yeah, i think this is all preparation for us. so this is the big question. we're going to want to see if, if that sport has been lost by the trump campaign, a lot of people would say, look at the opinion polls. pamela harris has come up, but we also know that in the us the selection takes place to elect for college. but that means you have to win states, not the overall amount of voters, something the democrats have had better luck doing and recent elections. and then many of those battle ground states would call them the key states that these opponents have to when trump is actually doing better, or he's very close. so in many ways the momentum appears to have shifted. but in

reality, not quite so much. what's going to have to happen is we're going to wonder, 1st of all, there's gonna be a policy debates. you know, the republicans would like to stress immigration for one. the economy. harris would like to stress be productive rights as an area where she does well. abortion rights, but really this is going to be for harris by proving that, that momentum that she's had in the overall polls, that it's legitimate, but it's grounded in something real. she's going to have to stay stable. she's going to have to withstand his attacks. he wants to prove, on the other hand, that he can rattler as speaking about these a battleground states. i mean, this debate, sorry, this townhome was held in the background state of pennsylvania. and although the opinion polls seem to indicate but to come to her as, as a lead over trump, but she's not doing too well in these battleground states. is that correct? yeah, in many of them she's still struggling. right. and so in the state that she has to wednesdays, like north carolina, maybe not so much this year. but in past elections, north carolina was still in play. virginia of florida. she's going to have to have a clear lead and start showing a cleared lead is going to have to really hook in and take effect. and that's

something that we haven't quite seen yet. even if in the general mainstream polls we're seeing, there is more movement in her direction. so this is something that's both candidates are going to target during that debate. they want these undecided voters to some extent. they know trump, they know his bluster, they may not know harris as well. and so she's going to have to prove herself by standing up to him on that stage. we'll leave it there for the moment. do this even to be of late. thanks so much. i or there's something that stephen just mentioned about the police in the us state of georgia and now say a 14 year old man is expected to be charged with mother for the sure things are full of people on a high school campus. officials here. the suspect was a student that apalachee high school, where the attack took place and that he gave himself up when a security officer confronted him. the small town of winder georgia, as in morning for children and teachers, killed by one of their own class was in session at apalachee high when the

rampage began. students say they hid under their desks or tried the barricade classroom doors. while the shots rang out. um we were going about, i did the like the 1st shot you're going to hear is like pop up. and then after that like our teacher ones next by out the window just like everybody get down and they get you out of pocket. caught like twos going off and all of us including me, i was crying. i was, i was shaky as i was just then know where my mind was is i was just so scared, police responded within minutes of getting the call. a law enforcement officer already on campus confronted the shooter and told him to put down his weapon. the suspect was then taken into custody and identified as a 14 year old pupil at apalachee high. according to the gun violence archive this year, they have been nearly $400.00 mass shootings in the us meeting. 4 or more people

were killed or wounded. a 173 children age 11 and younger, were among the dead. one local college students said enough is enough. i feel like these words need to be said. i feel like i'm segments the united states . america has failed. our children, america has failed or educated in our schools. the steps of gun violence was a serious, serious issue in america of those sadly apparent. but this county has become another statistics. school shootings have become a tragically familiar occurrence in the u. s. which has the highest rate of gun ownership in the world by far. but many americans believe their right to own firearms is too important to sacrifice. that's it for the moment, but coming up next off of the break, did i lose?
