aah! with with, with our top headlines right now, you're not seeing international china warrens, it will take all the necessary measures to safeguard its sovereignty. and territorial integrity comes off to the us. how speak at nancy pelosi touched down in high one with the visit triggering increased tension between china. and of course the united states. now in response to the visit to china begins military drills all around taiwan, saying that will include non nuclear missile launches off the seat east of the island. i. beijing had already been boosting its activity near the territory. i'll tie one's islands. i said to have all been put on full combat lud. meantime,

people in taiwan itself, a pretty anxious over the us, how speakers trip a members of the public told us that us just wants to spread its power and influence in the region. the low see touch china's bottom line. she touched the red line. so both the u. s. and china have to take actions accordingly. they just use tie one to get our attention for domestic market. hello steve visit. we'll add tensions across the taiwan strait. i really hope the americans won't come around to mess things up so that we can live a peaceful life with a very warm or welcome to you. this is all to international with me role res, to show you. now i just off that 9 pm here at moscow and just after 2 o'clock in the morning in taipei, why are we talking about ty pay because that's where the u. s. how speaker nancy

pelosi finally touched down just a few hours ago. and so, so, you know, very well of the fact that she touched down despite numerous threats from china, of serious and pending consequences. china will definitely take all necessary measures to resolutely safeguarded sovereignty and territorial integrity. in response to the u. s. speaker's visit, all the consequences arising there from must be borne by the us side and the tie want independence, separatist forces as our series and pictures from the song shot at board in taipei . it's a regional and military base and that's nancy pelosi is playing right. that just a few hours ago, touching down in taipei, the flight tracking website, a flight re dos to the number of people following her jet, reached 700000 world wide. that's how many people have been keeping a close watch and all this. and just coming down the stairs there in a pink suit dress where a face mask the u. s. how speak stepped off the plane at around $1050.00 p. m. local time. of course. what do you do when you get there? that's right. you do

a p off photo shoot with all of your taiwanese official friends. now, she said to her visit is evidence of the u. s. commitment to support what she calls taiwanese democracy. policy has become the highest ranking american official to visit the self ruled island. and 25 years now in response to hub, is it? china's military has now begun drills in 3 large areas all around tie $1.21 chinese warplanes and to tie one's ad defends identification zone. very recently. a military drills will include non nuclear missile launches from the see east of the island territory and according to various military sources, this will include the use of weapons and the direct coordination between warships, destroyers and fighter jets. that's why one's islands. i said to have been put on what they're calling full combat alert. and here's some unverified footage of exercises supposedly taking place in china's fujian province just across the taiwan strait. ah

ah. let's take this further here on the program. so i don't, archie international getting the thoughts now and joining, i guess, dr. yano book, the director of the trans national foundation for peace and future research. a great pleasure to have you with us here at auto international. thanks for joining us with this special rolling coverage. what do you think? so apollo sees trip, you know, has it all been a very coordinated trip or just a bit of a chaotic one? on the one hand, you have the biden administration saying it's not keen on the timing, and yet pelosi almost seems to be on a personal crusade. what are your thoughts,

doctor? well, she's known for being mary siena foby, tim, back in time to i think as well, coordinate to secretary's day link and say today that we can't prevent a room going and it's our own choice. and i think president biden set so many days ago that the american military thought it was not a good time to go. of course, they could have been stopped from going if they wanted to, but they probably want to distance themselves in the sense that this was not america. it was nancy pelosi herself coming, but she's not free. and the in the ranking order of the united states political system. so the chinese are not going to be formed by this. i think also one should be very aware that it comes as part of a larger picture. the largest picture is the ongoing cold war than the u. s. runs more or less european union countries against china. we have documented this in our

foundation says smokescreen report, that's a very well orchestrated where did very well finance campaign going on. you can only negative stories about china and in the way, the mainstream question, mary, payment to me just for writing negative stories about china cetera. and you know, her demonstrative visit come up to reckless miss it, which does not at times i can. yeah. any kind of communicating content that she could not convey, you know, the way such as so remarking, i want you to washington and say that has to do with the fact that it, it, it's a matter of provoking provoking people and see what the response will be unfortunately, so far the chinese response has been very modest, i would say, because these people don't in the west, don't understand this and maybe not been to china, but this is very,

very serious one let's, let's talk about this. talk to our bug. maybe you talk about provocations, for example. now we know that various western countries have been during that freedom of navigation acts and sailing that destroyers and the, and the vessels through the south china sea and the taiwan strait for years now. and it's ongoing spat between washington and america, excuse me, a china and america is going on for quite some time now but, but now we're really seeing their rhetoric getting fired up. in fact, as you and me a speaking right now. nancy pelosi touched on just a couple of hours ago in taipei. what's going on now? china is launching overnight drills. in fact, if you go to various r t a telegram channels and, and otherwise you will see some amazing footage right now. pretty concerning footage of wargames late at night over the island of ty want. is it possible here that this is the closest that washington or beijing of come in real life to some sort of real head on conflict? do you think? yes and no on parts of this. ah, it seemed

a call to read what the chinese are trying to convey with these images, which i could not see when you show them. i think that there is no doubt that you will will do things in response to it, which will be more political and economic. i mean, they could help prevent from landing it too. but one of the what, what i see is the american or u. s. i should say, incrementalism in problem. a sure dumpling, you've seen with the, with the rush, also in the engine mazda of all the time, each one of them, not that serious. but then that comes, you know, the, the, the last one which you should not have done, which was you crime portion. and here you have, if you go back to media, angling that you align nixon meeting in february 72. paragraph 12 of that

agreement says the us accepts that these chinese on both sides, that tie one is china, that we will not interfere in that. is that truck, it better. i'm not going to quote at length from it monday, i don't know, but the time incrementally by military people. american military on taiwan is selling weapons with what you mentioned with constant negative story and also not met him that the chinese will read this as you just want to do one more publication and we're going to react to this. you know, the chinese thinking is basically we can take a lot, we can live with contradictions, legally. we can live with pro. but at one point we're going to sit down the foot and that will not be a nice thing or, but let's let me just take a it further. for example, pelosi is when i was in a hotel room. it's about 10 past 2 in the morning inside pay. one would assume that

she's tucked into bed and sleeping off her jet lag and she's got a big day tomorrow morning. what could chinese officials do? what, what, what could they, how could they take this further? when the sun comes up tomorrow morning, what do you think they have in store for pelosi, they're going to let her just walk around the island and, and do her p. r. stunt and her photo opportunities. yeah. then i'm going to kill her or anything like that. i mean, that's a specialty of the americans killing people. they don't mind. so i don't know, i will probably say ok, let a to 2 year old lady who are around they will be very cross with the leadership of taiwan for not presenting this visit or for whatever way they receive her. and she will leave again. but i think the repercussions, the ongoing, colder and colder, which we in china and the united states will be felt. and you know that he's a tragedy for all of us, because it's china and the u. s. the already in the accident with lisa, the west cannot come together. well, right?

humanities, future use. do we all that i thought over you talk about humanity being things sorta sorta jump in so quickly. but you know that we have some analysts on earlier here on our team international this evening talking about their a sudden flash points in the world. but the u. s. is directly or indirectly involved in ukraine is one of them tie one is another. so be a cause of, oh and then iran. why are we at a point in the world, were there a flash points uprising in certain parts of the world and yet, and yet, it always seems as one key player that's involved. what's the point? well, if you mention iran, now, notice also that the sanctions that way introduced, i think yesterday a couple of days ago were hitting chinese fans who do not join it, which do not accept secondary sanctions. namely that one thing is that the united states does not want to work with trade with iran, but it is also telling separate states in europe and else and the well not to do

anything economically with iraq. this is outrageous. it's time to have sanctions against united states for these violations of summer, summer, and countries. but i think you're right in mind your protection, and you've heard me say that before is united states and the western world may to, if you will, to is on its way down in a macro historical perspective. i mean, i only am past go down at some point the soviet union did is 30 years ago and it's time now, it is easy and i'm not saying it with any joy. i'm just saying this is history. and they are seeing that these games they, a plane are not really results. they have a horrible problem with that economy. they've instigated sanctions as well. a dominant leader u. s. allies in europe. you don't get anywhere to china these way. whenever they try to do, you know, combating the bell road initiative by, by some kind of other initiative that has already failed the bill back as well. part of the whole one boat water initiative is the idea of using national

currencies. dr. o bug and getting away from the petro dollars. this is a massive bone of contention is something, not just the one bed one road initiative. it's something the old bricks nations are all working towards. and that is using national currency as for international trade, bub by us dollar. look what's going on with saudi arabia and china. china is the biggest buyer of oil from saudi arabia, saudi arabia and china. while that, their varying away from the petro dollar, china wants to use you on all the saudi reale, to do oil trade. now, the petro dollar is part of the backbone of the u. s. economy and so forth as foreign policy. so what we're seeing right now around the world with it, any growth of bricks because saudi arabia, iran, argentina, they want to join bricks. and then of course, you go the s, c o, the shanghai cooperation organization. you are seeing a coagulation of allies and partners around the world for the immediate future. and if something's not important to said, reason, recent weeks time and time again, he says nothing can stop the changes that are now happening around the world. he's

referring to that of a new born multi polar order, isn't lisa a. well, would you respect the president of russia today is not the 1st one who said that some of us who said it for last 20 years that this is the, i mean toynbee is headed re mapquest, orient. everybody has worked with empires. going all been empires going down, and there are some indicators when they do. one is over military session. one is lack of legitimacy in the eyes of other countries. one another one is the lack of innovation and new plans and missions. as that one is that you are no longer modeled to younger states around the world, etc. plus this is history. and the in his history that we go up and we go down one day, china, maybe the shining, big country in the world. and you know, in 50 a 100 years from now they may not be in somebody else is turning up africa. this is

the stupidity of the west sorta for my word is not to recognize that the best we can do is to cooperate with the world instead of fighting. everybody like an old grumpy patriarch who is annoyed with his children no longer listening to him. i mean, i'm using these simple pictures because i think they're important psychologically when you see in the west now is a psycho political protection on what we do bad ourselves. we accuse others of doing that. we're doing these bad things much more and too much to extend, such as killing people around the world. and therefore, it's time for the allies of the united states in europe to help the united states look with realism on what the world order changes is about. and where it's new place can be, the u. s. has so much to be of the world these they'd wants to and if they could turn around and secondly, we will all be in danger if we don't help the united states also to adapt to the

global changes. we don't want the cold war to be on warm, and that's when back to the shoot, we must cooperate for the sake of humanities future. no matter what we think of each other over got i'm running running very, very long time here, but you were really very, some good points. i mean, you talk about the cold war era, for example, the and geopolitical tensions been certain between certain of the biggest players on the blocks. it seems that there's a, a cold war mentality of that's even becoming more pervasive around certain parts of the world. like i said earlier, we're seeing certain groupings, 2nd quality relations of allies and other countries out there that seem wary of the west. today, they seem a bit scared of the, of a dollar. because if you're using the dollar for international trade, which just about everybody, does your potentially going to be sanctioned? if, if you upset the power masters in washington, b. c, told me, talk to me this talked about before i let you go, america, nato, that they say that they have every right to have a presence in and around the south trying to see something. china basically

disagrees with it is an awfully far away away from europe and america. it is china's back yard, but does nato, does america have a reasonable attitude in this saying that we can, we can drive our military vessels up and down the coast lines anytime any day of the week. you could do that when you dominated the world. you could do that when you were number one military, economically, culturally, etc, you no longer are. and that's where the adaptation should take place. no. also because the united states would never accept that proximity, that closeness of china and to its own coast to be in california. of florida, the u. s. would not accept if it was placed where russia is placed, that somebody made an, an adversarial alliance up to the very border and placed its weapons that the u. s . is a running on exceptionalism, as we all know done. so for a long time,

once upon a time they had a few will the powers on the right and the charm and the vision to do so. it's no longer the case. and secondly, they are running on this is a completely bizarre idea of rule space international order, the only rules based international order. the reason of this world is the united nations charter and international rewards on the conventions. why are we doing something else? because we are on the way down, we're decaying, but we're still suffering from coopers. we can do whatever we please, and we can go to the well and they will listen to it. no, they won't listen to the united states that much and he was, and that's where the ally should have a better antenna function and help united states their friend to adapt to the new world, which will be multi polar. it is not going to be a well dominated with chinese, and the chinese do not come with a sword. and they do not come with a bible. they do business, and they do friendship, whatever you call it, but they are not building an empire. and that's why they are not

a threat to the western. well, if we could, and i analyze the chinese philosophy mentality and culture in a much better way than we do today, then i'm going to an empire role after united states. they're simply not that stupid to believe that one system, communist parties all over the world or something like that would be possible or desirable at western christian missionary idea, and we have to leave it behind it. we all going to survive. that's a really interesting comment that from dr. young oberg, the director of the trans national foundation for peace and future research. i love how you take a broader global perspective on, on a what seems to be a small story for now regarding tiwana pelosi but there is such a broader global implications. we really appreciate your time. thanks for joining us here on how to international. i appreciate it. 2 things are just a bit out here in this program here. what i would say i discussed pelosi is better to taiwan as a part of our asian tour with our correspondent ortiz a. rachel blevins. hello. he's finally touched down there. you know,

even even in the face of all of this rhetoric from china, hello, she apparently had to make a visit. what are your expectations now that she's here? you know, she released that statement right after she touched down in which she claim that she was there to support were she referred to as taiwan, the vibrant democracy. she also went as far as to say that she does not believe that she is in violation of the one china policy, which is absolutely not how beijing sees it is not what they have worn again and again, when it came to the lead up to this proposed visit now as far as her itinerary for a while she's there. there are a lot of questions about what it's going to look like because her team did not initially say that this was the plan, right? they gave her list of places that she was going to visit in asia, and taiwan was not on that list. so there are some questions about who she's going to talk to when it comes to officials. and of course, what she's going to say while she's there, given the fact that we now have these tensions increasing between the us and china all around exactly where lucy is right now. now it was also notable that she talked

about democracy there because it makes you wonder how do the people of taiwan, steve is a visit. and what we've heard is from people on the ground there who said they are concerned about the long term impacts of policies. visit that will play out and impacted them. long after she has returned to the united states. take listen to what was said. it's about mimicry, interest. they use taiwan. they use that you political measure to, to benefit themselves. they only care about how the government can be holding the powers it is in them states. okay, so they just use tie one to get their attention for domestic market from good to lucy. touch china's bottom line, touch the red line. so both the us and china have to take action accordingly. only

pelosi will benefit from the elusive visit. that's all i know. hello sees visit will add tensions across the taiwan strait, which has no benefit at all for the taiwan people. i really hope the americans won't come around to mess things up so that we can live a peaceful life policy talking about taiwanese democracy, taiwanese democracy here, and you hear some of the comments from the locals as saying they're really concerned because this is, it's flaring an awful lot of tensions between the 2 biggest players on the well blog these days. yeah. it is curious as the kind of rhetoric that's coming out of close his mouth these there's a how is the how speaker actually really justify? well, you know, we haven't heard much from her in terms of what she believes as the justification for this visit. even with that statement that she released just a couple of hours ago. but in all of this, it's also been notable to see how the white house has responded to this. right. you've got president biden, who himself has admitted that the u. s. military did not think this trip was a good idea that they were concerned about the ways in which it would increase

tensions between the us and china, exactly as we have seen. and then at the same time, you also had the secretary of state blinking, who spoke out and said that the decision was entirely up to nancy pelosi herself. and you think about all of the possible ramifications that could come out of this between the world's 2 largest economies. and yet you have the white house sitting there saying it is the speaker of the house who is allowed to make this decision. and to do something that would lead to the current tensions that we're seeing. and yet when we look back at the statements that nancy pelosi is mean, she's kind of shrugged it off and downplayed the situation to say the least table is know what she said earlier. the president, earlier well, earlier in his term talked about a strong emphasis on the asian pacific. he, he has visited there as vice president visited, the secretary of commerce and others. and we were the congress of the united states

to be part of that initiative. of course, as a west coast person, we see that pacific as they're, you know, that's their, their home. we're part of that as well. so you can see there, she's almost shrugging it off as if it's no big deal. she's just going to say more of the pacific ocean, and yet we look at all of the ramping of the engines that we're seeing between the us and china right now. that makes you wonder if she truly realizes the impact of this visit. that let's take the politicians rhetoric out of the equation for now. rachel, what's, what's the general view in america regarding this whole thing? yeah, there seem to be more questions than answers as to why pelosi is embarking on a trip like this. right. with everything that's going on in the u. s. right now with the american people who have repeatedly said that they're concerned about skyrocketing gas play prices, about inflation, about all of the issues they have going on at home. they're wondering why the speaker of the house is making a trip like this and why she's costing the american taxpayers millions of dollars

and security in order to make this possible. and that really is reflected in some of the voices that we're hearing speaking out now. questioning why now, why this trip and why is this something that blows embarked on? here's the latest on that. nothing good will come of it. taiwan will not be more secure or more prosperous as a result of this purely symbolic visit. and a lot of bad things could happen. these include a chinese military response that could result in the u. s. being plunged into in direct conflicts with a nuclear armed russia and a nuclear armed china at the same time this week with the blessing, the by the ministration. nancy pelosi decide to head to taiwan. it's all but confirmed at this point. government officials in taipei have just been notified that policies arrival is imminent. you may be in the air right now. she's definitely coming. one source told the wall street journal. the only variable is whether she spends the night. so nancy pelosi goes to ty, pay, what's the effect of that? well, we don't need to guess the chinese government has, has said repeatedly and clearly that if nancy pelosi lands in taiwan,

it could trigger a global war. are you here to provoke a war or to start a war? what the hell are you doing here? hello, see? so we've heard reaction out of beijing. we've heard a bit of muffled reaction out of washington dc. what about the rest of the world? it's rather quiet at the moment we have any other international reaction to the yeah, you know, is interesting because earlier this week when policy was in singapore, the premier, there actually said that the focus needed to be on maintaining stable relations between the united states and china. that that was something that was in all of their best interest in the region. at the same time, we've also heard from moscow a spokesperson for the kremlin, spoke out and referred to this trip as extremely provocative, noting that russia stands with china and also that moscow understands that frustration that is coming to from beijing when it comes to this visit in the fact that the united states has continued to carry out. so certainly a lot of moving parts here, a lot to keep an eye on,

and these consequences will likely be felt long after this visit is over. do you think that any chance at nancy pelosi could actually get stuck there? because in the coming days i saw a picture of a map that with china basically publishing. so we're going to be doing these live fire drills on the west side of taiwan on the east side of taiwan to the north and south in the coming days. is it possible that policy could actually get stuck, that? you know, that's an excellent question at the same time, we've seen the u. s. military really focus on trying to build up some sort of buffer zone, but you're right, that is china's reason that is right and their backyard. and so if they wanted to make it difficult, they arguably could. now the question is going to become what they decide to do. and of course, how the united states decides to react, if the by an administration is really going to step in and ramp at tensions even more than what they already are at right now. now, the white house has said the u. s. will not allow itself to be intimidated and will take all necessary measures to ensure the safety of nancy pelosi well earlier. and american officials said that taiwan is not

a problem for china us relations. but the current situation does seem to suggest otherwise the united states no longer sees taiwan is a problem in our relations with china. we see it as an opportunity to advance our shared vision for a free and open in the pacific. and also as a beacon to people's around the world who aspire for a more just safe, prosperous and democratic world. so why is nancy? pelosi is trip such a big deal? it's because of the one china policy. taiwan is officially recognized by the united states as part of china. the usa adopted the one china policy in 1972 usa has no formal ties with the government on taiwan government that was established by the forces who lost out when the communist party to power on the mainland usa has no embassy on taiwan. and it advocates for taiwan to peacefully re unify with the mainland. this understanding has been key in us china relations for decades in more recent years,

as washington drifted toward portraying china as its number one enemy. we've seen washington also drifting away from this policy, hinting its support for taiwan independence as a wage is threatened, shina the united states is hollowing out and the blurting up the one china policy. us officials of course, deny that they are wavering on the taiwan issue. but it doesn't help when present biden drops. bombshell statements like this. are you willing to get involved militarily to defend taiwan? if it comes to that? yes, you are. that's a commitment we made in recent months. us relation to taiwan has gotten much more intense us weapons are piling into taiwan with joe biden approving for different arm sale deals, including $95000000.00 for patriot missile systems. nato is expanding its presence in the region as well with various active posturing in the taiwan straits. there

has also been a heated war of words. if any one dares to split taiwan from china, the chinese military will fight at all costs to resolutely smash any taiwan secessionist attempt and resolutely safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity. we're not going to let the chinese communist party dictate for the speaker of the house should go. as the speaker of the united states house of representatives, you should never have to ask a foreign dictatorship or the state department for permission to talk to america's friends and allies. hello, he'd lead l if house speaker nancy pelosi visits taiwan. it will grossly interfere in china's internal affairs severely undermined china's sovereignty and territorial integrity trample on the one china policy principle. gravely threatened, the peace instability and the taiwan strait and undermined china us relations. it will lead to various serious situation and consequences.
