using ukraine as a proxy, the west has made it clear once a russia that is weaker and isolated on the world stage. today, these attempts have ended in failure. in fact, the opposite is happened. the west is weaker and isolated over ah, new footage, shared by chinese media, revealed china preparing for military exercises in the taiwan strait. that's after the us house b can. nancy pelosi touched down in taipei, despite numerous warnings from beijing. china strongly condemned to visit saying it will with a lucky defend its. busy territorial integrity and urges the united states against violations of the wine china. principal. china strongly urges the united states to stop playing the taiwan card and using to i want to contain china. and people in taiwan itself are anxious over the u. s. house because trip members of the public

told us the u. s. just wants to spread its power and influence. not help them with lucy, touch china's bottom line. she touched the red line. so both the us and china have to take actions accordingly. they just use, tie one to get our attention for domestic market flow. she's to visit with attention across the taiwan straits, which has no benefit at all for the taiwan people with it's just gone 3 o'clock in the morning here in the russian capital. it's 8 a in type pie, and we're coming to live from moscow studios. thank you so much for joining us. what china has begun military drills an area surrounding tie one that's in response to the visit of the us. how speaker nancy pelosi to type pe. he has some the latest footage shade by china is media warplanes $21.00 chinese warplanes pass through ty,

once a defense identification zone, and according to beijing, military sources drills will include non nuclear missile launches from the sea, east of the island territory. that will include live fi exercises and coordination between warships and find a coffee tie ones. islands, i'll say to have been put on combat alert. as chinese media is flooded by alleged footages of military preparations, china has already warned washington of serious consequences of the u. s. because it, china will definitely take all necessary measures to resolutely safeguarded sovereignty and territorial integrity in response to the us speakers visit. all the consequences arising there from must be borne by the us side and the tie want independence, separatist forces. ah

this is the moment nancy pelosi arrived at function airport in taipei. the fly tracking site flight rate are 24 dot come, said the number of people following her jet, which is almost 3000000 people. a record figure for the service, the u. s. house because at her visit is evidence of the u. s. commitment to support taiwanese democracy. policy has become the highest ranking american official to visit the self, rhode island in 25 years. the white house, meanwhile, has stated that a dialogue between washington and beijing will be kept open and that the u. s. won't be insult involved in any military conflict with china. the united states

will not and does not will not seek and does not want a crisis. we are prepared to manage wellbeing to chooses to do. at the same time, we will not engage in saber rattling. we will continue to operate in the seas and the skies of the western pacific. as we have done for decades, we will continue to support taiwan. defend a free and open indo pacific and seek to maintain communication with beijing. since it's switched recognition from type pay to beijing, washington has held and ambivalent position regarding china and taiwan. it officially acknowledges beijing as the only legitimate government for the whole of china, including ty, one in line with the one china policy. but this is not prevented us from maintaining unofficial relations with ty pay, and sending military aid to the island. china said that the time has come for us to stop playing a tie one cod. this is

a serious violation of the one china principle. there is but one china in the world tie one is an inalienable part of china's territory. china strongly urges the united states to stop playing the taiwan card and using taiwan to contain china. one china policy has been a definitive aspect of us china relations for the past 40 year. but today's visit by nancy pelosi seems to put all of that on the brink of destruction. the one china policy is that the united states acknowledges the people's republic of china as the one chinese government on the mainland. it does not have diplomatic relations with the government on time one than an advocate. taiwan being peacefully re integrated with the mainland into one giant. now it appears that despite the fact that nancy pelosi has gone to taiwan, the white house and john kirby and others, the us state department are maintaining that the one china policy does in fact,

remain intact with us. they are not backing away from that. however, we're seeing signals to the contrary, a lot of action by the united states and the lead up to today's big of that have indicated that the u. s. the one china policy may be on the brink of being revoked . this is what we heard from a representative of the american institute in taiwan observing recent trends, 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. now you have the visuals in 5th, they are not wavering on the issue of taiwan. however, it doesn't help when you have the president of the united states making remarks 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. now we see you official giving mixed signals almost as if

they're not talking to each other before they make their statement or engage in their actions contradictory messages being sent by washington. the world is quite nervous about this as they fear it could push things onto the brink of another global crisis. while top us officials came, washington is fixing by one china policy. us health be can nancy pelosi took part in a photo session with a taiwanese foreign minister political analyst duck quarter. lily says policies visit to taiwan is a contradiction of the u. s. held one china policy. i think the dos and the statements do contradict the one china policy do contradict official us policy statement. and i think the united states has kind of walked a type rope ever since the recognition of the people's republic of china. i believe that the recognition of the people's republic of china as the sole representative, the china and the chinese people,

was done less out of respect for common sense and decency. and the republic of china is so small, in comparison to the norms of international law, which dictates successes, states clearly states that the people's republic of china should be the only successor states. there is kind of this push for a new cold war. and this policy that we've been, the one china policy is kind of one of the last bastions of peace and tranquility between the united states and china and the united states and the rest of the world. earlier my colleague, voice to say, discuss policies as a to tie one without correspondent rachel blevins. hello. she's finally touched down there. you know, even an, even in the face of all 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 what 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 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 pelosi 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 see this visit. and what we've heard is from people on the ground there who say 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, but it's all about the interest. they use taiwan. they, they use that your political mom measure to to benefit them. so they only care about how the government can be holding to powers it is in them states. okay, so they just used high one to get their attention for domestic market from good lucy touch china's bottom line. she touch the red line. so both of us and china have to take actions accordingly. only pelosi will benefit from the elusive visit. that's all play she's visit will attention to cross the taiwan straits, which has no benefit at all for the taiwan people. i really hope the americans will not come around to mess things up so that we can live at 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 world blog these days. yeah, it is curious as the kind of rhetoric because that's coming out of follows his mouth these days. 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 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've looked back at the statements that nancy pelosi has mean, she's kind of shrugged it off and downplayed the situation to say, believe 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, 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 they're their home, we're part of that as well. so you can see there, she's almost shrugging it off as if it's. 2 no big deal,

she's just going to say more of the pacific ocean. and yet we look at all the ramping other tensions that we're seeing between the us and china right now. that makes you wonder if she truly realizes the impact of this visit. let's, 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 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 on the 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 us 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 decided to head to taiwan. it's all been confirmed at this point. government officials in taipei have just been notified that pollution arrival is imminent. she may be in the air right now. she's definitely coming. one source told the wall street journal. you 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 wall or to start a wall? what the hell are you doing here? hello, see? so we've heard a 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 that. 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. you think of any chance said nancy pelosi could actually get stuck there because in the coming days i saw a picture of a map that would china basically publish. and 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 in 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 up tensions even more than what they already are at right now. well, let's discuss the latest developments with anti war activist kin stone. thank you very much for joining us here in our tea. a gina say that policies visit will need to serious negative consequences. in your opinion, what kind of response to the and can, can you expect china to have? well, i think china is the aggrieved party here, and it will respond in the manner and at

a time that it finds appropriate. china has not sailed naval fleets between hawaii and the united states. it has not supported secessionist movements in the states. it has not sold arms to terrorist groups are provided. and if any arms to such groups within this united states, all these things are being done by the united states and hello zis visit is a further ratcheting up of tension. the united states has been intervening, interfering in the domestic affairs of china for over a century. and lately they have been greatly involved and, and meddling in the affairs of hong kong, sion, john and now taiwan. so china has the right to respond because it is the sovereign power. it was recognized many years ago by many decades ago by the united nations and exactly 50 years ago by the united states,

with its when nixon visited china and recognized china one china policy for the united states. canada did it much earlier. and this policy has been very beneficial to all parties concerned, but lately, now the united states and canada have been, i have been messing in the affairs of taiwan armina, a arming the government with billions of dollars. encouraging secessionist movement out sailing fleets in the straits of taiwan. how with can a few canadian warships and tow, like ugly little ducklings. the they've been encouraging a taiwanese roll at the u. n. and they've been opening, tie, pay information offices in both can and the u. s. so the united states has seriously ratcheted up tensions in the last few years. and hello ca visit is only

the most recent and most glaring example. you, you talk about china having the right to respond. what can china do to america economically, that would put across that message and let the united states understand the consequences of her actions? while i think china is not looking to, to cause problems for the united states. it's biden who said that he would not allow china to become the dominant academic power in the world on his watch. china has not been looking to cause problems for the united states, but the united states has also been meddling and other parts of the world, such as in russia and ukraine, specifically. and the, the sanctions that were put on russia and the economic war against russia has

pushed russia and china closer together. so they're acting more in concert and in independent of the us. and the biggest blow to the us may be of all things, the lack of the, the stopping or the restriction of the use of the american dollar. that may be the greatest thing that will undermine the u. s. empire, which after all, is involved in china and in ukraine because it has had your monica agenda, it intends to dominate the world and intends to break up russia into its component parts, the better to control it. and it intends to break up china as well. the better to control it as well. the u. s. has a history of intervening against international law in many countries of the world. and china is going to, is clearly going to have to defend its interest in respect to

taiwan. i mean, it's clear that policy had to know what was going to be the response from the chinese side. do you think she actually thought that's true? i mean, what could be her ultimate goal? well, i could think of 2 or 3 goals that she has in mind or her she had in mind when she planned her trip. one is that the president and the democrats and the congress is pulling numbers, including her own, are, are plummeting, and there is nothing better and in the united states. for right, rising popularity than bashing some country. china bashing is probably popular or making a war, or, or saber rattling, all these things are very, are one of those, one of them we drove attack, killing a terrorist leader. all these things divert people from the problems where they

can't afford to fill up their car. they can't afford their mortgage payments, they can't afford to go shopping. it's. it's a classic distraction that has been used by the u. s. ruined class. and also pelosi in particular, and her class of people stand to make a lot of money by the stabilizing the international situation by creating tensions in east asia by making a war in ukraine they represent. and she, in particular and her family represent them. the people who sell arms and make billions of dollars in this conflict. so she has personal and she has political interest in d, stabilizing, and ratcheting up tensions with china. at this time, i want to do you think that her trip has or could actually ignite china's aim to integrate the country even more

chica her, her visit? ah, will really. i think i'll make that chinese more resolute than ever to, to defend their interests in taiwan. and, and they will take whatever action is necessary, they naval maneuvers and the air maneuvers all wrong. taiwan are just an indication to the united states that they're serious about this. and it's not going to be on the u. s. gun boat diplomacy, that rules china's policy, the way it did 50 or a 100 years ago. the china is now. i'm mature economic, political, and military power. and they are just merely flexing their muscles right now to show the united states that they mean business and who knows where it could go. we are close, we are so close now to

a possible 3rd world war i'm. i'm wondering if, if we make it to the end of 2022. how, what the, what the bulletin of the atomic scientists will say, we'll do to the doomsday clock come december 31st. how many seconds to midnight? are we away from nuclear armageddon? but it's not china that's causing these problems. it's the u. s. and it's vassal, like kind of states that. busy followed along like, you know, like a bunch of sheep, canada, u. k. australia, up to this point that are making this the situation more and more dangerous for the people of the world. right now. the world faces multiple health crises and a possible environmental collapse. this is the time that the peace movement says that nation should be working together to solve these global problems. we shouldn't be ratcheting up tension and making trouble beat medley in the affairs of other

countries and making trouble for other countries. while these international crises loom on the horizon, you say that, do you believe that china will take whatever action is necessary, for example, flexing its military muscle? do you think we could have a situation where ultimately beijing might actually go towards military force? i i think that it's i, i think that the china has shown great restraint so far. they are with the united states, canada, britain and intervening, very directly in the affairs of hong kong. and also i'm intervening and sion giant province to say that there is a genocide and to cut off trade there because they say that their slave labor of china has been extremely restrained and not in responding to these things. and i

think china will be restrained in dealing with, di, want, they take a long, long view of things. and i can't see, ah, in the near future. china militarily intervening in taiwan. but there is a point at which they could be forced to if the united states did something really provocative to declare, to make the taiwan, to encourage taiwan to declare independence or something provocative like that. as he said, just needs one's fox, something provocative. and we could be looking at a completely different situation. kennestone from hamilton's coalition to stop the war. thank you very much for the time now i had a philosophy visit. a group of locals gathered outside the grand hyatt hotel in tough paste city where she is staying on the trip. but as the waves flags and

sheltered slogans as they made their feelings clear. not some want to be vice chairman of the shanghai center for when packed and international studies, but lisa pollute his trip is a clear provocation by washington that will come with consequences. it is actually the, the us, the american arrogance that is playing with fire is meddling into the domestic affairs of another country. and in this case, it is china. everybody knows that taiwan is part of china. this trip itself is going to be a symbolic one. only, and it's us what, it only serves her personal interest, this has consequences and has replica. so that's why china is, you know, making quite drastic reactions. it hurts the feeling of chinese people. i

think list incidence will be marked in the history of us china relations, not as a positive one, but as a very disastrous point. this is not only a national thing for china, this us arrogant, was this american arrogance pools handling relations with other countries is not acceptable in this 21st century. and this is something i think the rest of the world should come to realize the ramifications of policies visit have already been felt in local financial markets. she fell in the semi conductor manufacturers in tie one, the home of the largest such companies in the world. overall tie when he stopped stopped about 2 percent, which was the biggest fall in 3 weeks. the controversial visit of the us house speaker brought down the values of a number of industry giants. in addition, fallen stocks was not any fault anti one,

but also with either global semiconductor manufacturers. earlier, my colleague unit o'neill discussed the situation with alfred desires the professor of international law and angela g alonzo, a political and financial analyst. we americans love annoying. we are smoking our fingers in their eyes from that shows that we are number one and we don't even realize that we are 6. we do this because it makes us feel good. it's part of the informational war. and it's part of the penal for it is feeding into the fear of the chinese as we have been led to fear russia and fear of russia that are so by definition we're the good guys and we're finding the good work i don't believe is how and these are buying and the

rest of the world is not buying in latin. america is not buying it. neither is india and of course, not. rush hour battle russia and many other countries in europe with china, apparently not carrying a military maneuvers in the area. is this historically recently at least the closest we've come to a major incident between the 2 powers? yes, absolutely. so keep in mind, this is a 4th term that needs to do something. china doesn't want to lose face e, nancy, but it was, it goes to taiwan. something nice to happens if the u. s. is thinking that china bluff, it's making a huge mistake. international community would not point directly finger the us and say that ultimately if there is a refund, who response the responsibility would come from china. so it's, it's just, it's be all coordinated, coordinated this. it's not, it's not a.
