6:01 am
stating the global economy could be hit hard by china's coping situation and demonstrators in per route called for international support to prevent what they call further. police violence coming as the country's newly installed secret service is chief phase. the protesters part time a with from off go to the world. this is our take great part of your company and what is turning into a busy wedding. stay to our top story. china say it is ready to boost relations with russia to bill watts, its leader calls a just world. the remarks came during a visit, the deputy had of russia's national security council dmitri,
6:02 am
maybe at 2 beijing where he met with change in pe. he also brought a special message from vladimir putin, that's ortiz, marina cost rather, talks us through. they discussed a number of international issues and they agreed once again there reiterates the fact that their approach is very, very similar on a number of these international issues. also using things said that china is ready to move closer to ross. so for a fair global governance, they discussed their strategic foreign policy cooperation, including within the u. n. as well as other multilateral platforms, like the as c o bricks and the group of 20. also, of course, they touched upon the ukrainian crisis, the ukranian conflict resolution being said that he express hope that both parties will maintain restraints, that they will maintain rationality and hold a comprehensive dialogue. there was also
6:03 am
a letter that was passed on from debate midway, on behalf of latter me up who infusion thing and in that letter, it expressed that there was an unprecedented level of russian chinese relationships and when it comes to political dialogue, practical cooperation. the notes also expressed confidence in the continued progressive development of and to states and into party ties. now with the new leadership of the communist party of china. and also what's interesting is choosing things said that the relationship between russia and china has withstood the test of time for all the international ups and downs. they remain close and they're moving towards one direction. and once again, like they said, they're reiterated the fact that their approach is similar. now that we're seeing that the west is so eager to make it seem like they are the ones who are in charge of the world. and we're seeing now that we are talking about a multi polo world. it's not just the western charge. so we're seeing now that
6:04 am
russia is pivots and more towards the something that we've been seeing actually happening over the last decade, really. so now there are cementing those ties, it seems, and a trying to find more ways that they can corporate against commencing that friendship. and that unity less cross to hong kong and speak to under lung international and independent china, a specialist on this, you're most welcome to the program president. she stated that his country is ready to boost relations with russia for a more just world. what do you think? not a bold statement really entails going forward? well, the reality is that after the 2nd world war and the whole world was dictated or have been dictated by the united states as the all only hedgeland, ah, that translates into. ready and the united states being the. ready world's largest economy and then the strength of the u. s. dollar
6:05 am
r. ready prevails in the world markets, and of course, the u. s. military have and military bases in hundreds of places around the world. and this had too many hours remain unchallenged for a long time until the rise of china. and indeed the rise of the developing world. and not the china would like to replace the united states as the world as well. but then the united states increasingly finds itself unable to call the shots are at all times in all circumstances. and particularly for example, you recently, ah, well united states and demanded the opec to organization before the petroleum. ready exporting countries to increase supplies of energy in respond to the ukraine in crisis. the opec flatly refills safeguarding their own interest. and of course, the, the developing world according to various estimates is going to account for something
6:06 am
like 60 percent of the world economy by the year 2035. so, and large number of countries arising quite rapidly with the bit of clause. and then you have countries like including russia, but also indonesia. now you have a course in india and, and, and turkey and, and i go into the goldman sachs latest survey or study and in the next 7 to 50 years or so. the world top and 8 am economies in a world cup all in is 7 of those would be what are developing countries now. and course you can say o m as in 2070 was a long way off. but the end of the study is not just looking into a crystal ball, but then a space on the development them and, and,
6:07 am
and concrete development in all these countries. so that means that the world is no longer dictated by a single country, is going to be a much more multi poder world. and then russia and china are being pushed together by an american making both and the enemy. and then confronting and, and m coercing. both countries are 360 degrees and that's fine. and that's it. so you think that's actually, that's going to help facilitate and multi polar world. russia and china being pushed as he said together like this. it's going to hasten at that well, multiple, well, it's been talked about. but then of course, that there are many countries, but the question, as you know, which country has the power to withstand american coercion and either individually or collectively as in the case of opec. i'm previously of course the ag, united states, right on the so called petro dollar because. ready not
6:08 am
a state was the largest buyer of middle east oil below is no longer the case. the united states has become an energy net energy exporter and the greatest customer for middle east oil is china. and of course, china is embedded in the world's supply. and mary jane, $130.00 countries around the world have china is the largest and a partner trading partner compared with only for the 7 in the case of the united states. and then even according to a, a study and by the peterson, the institute of internationally economics plays in washington d. c. and number of years back about 15 years back they did, they did a study and they show that even so long ago. there are more countries and currencies moving up and down in line with the roman bay as opposed to the u. s. dollar. that means that all these countries, as i said, have china, is the largest trading partner. so you can see in many ways the world's been
6:09 am
changing quite rapidly and no longer a situation whereby the united states, as the sink regimen, can dictate all things in all circumstances. can i put another aspect to it as well? today, the head of russia space agency stated that russia and china had signed a pact to develop a lunar. i post quite an ambition, your thoughts on that plan? well, the china is leisurely as been reported, widely has been a successful in building is own space station because china, i was excluded from the so call internationalist base station led by the united states right from the start. and that the, this, or the international space station, they're part of the united states, started morland's rate, perhaps even 20 years ago. and then excluded china, right? the way we start, even though that include russia as
6:10 am
a partner. but then because of this exclusion china was a, have to build is own space station from scratch way, way, way successfully. and then of course with the success with association as. ready as voice technology and you know, sort of exploration of the moon and was the wonder that china joined russia in partnership because washer, after all, i was leading in space exploration for example. so call smart nick, emboldened that scare the united states decades ago. and of course, the, the russia remains as a space power. so there is no lot of surprising things that the 2 countries i would like to join hands in as space exploration and, and move on as establishing a wooden pace based for various experiments. yes,
6:11 am
fascinating. the say, how that plans going to turn, i'd isn't it just to return to today's meeting under, you have dmitri med, we had a former russia president and now a senior figure in the country security apparatus in beijing speaking to china's leader is the timing of the visit significant in your eyes. where is it? because he is sending out a clear message as to the united states and bad as far as security is concerned. it's not just one country or a group of countries dictating the terms and imposing those on other countries, ignoring other countries. security, as in the case of ukraine, for example. and even though china is, is not joining. and there are russia in the ukraine war after all m, china and one of the major tenant of his foreign policy is respecting other countries sovereignty. but on the other hand,
6:12 am
china realizes that what caused the pain war is the perception that russians national security was seen to be challenge with the failure of the means agreement . and that the encroachment of a china security. i am a buffer zones right at, at is border and in the ukraine opposes away very large country, multiple times larger than the germany. and so that explains that the, the situation are so china understands that even though china is now in a way, very careful a lot the to be drawn directly into the war. but on the other hand, continues with of a cruise economic partnership. after all, china's the biggest customer of russian energy and because customer of russian agricultural production and then with climate change and russia's agricultural production is going to increase out would be
6:13 am
a change the weather more and more land which was under the permafrost that would become more airable and would supply china much needed and agricultural products. so the 2 countries can, i can see i do i on many different funds. well, we do appreciate you coming in the program and sharing your views and giving us some expertise on all that as always, under lung international and independent china specialist. thank while the us rumps up its arm supplies to ukraine as deputy and buster to the united nations. i was expressed dismay of the organizations refusal to investigate a legit iranian drone shipments to russia. the u. s. claims the un secretary general is yielding to threats from russia versus envoy dmitri young speak. say that such a probe would be a breach of the un charter, and washington's request reflects the typical american methods of blackmail. i
6:14 am
think that reflects just to redo our western colleagues with the fact that the secretary general and the secretariat indeed doesn't to move in the direction that they want them to move. but the secretary general and the secretariat, if they act it this way, they would have a violate, it's un charter. and this is absolutely a altree just situation. we indicated this is several times. it has nothing to do with the substance of them. answer is the question of procedure and the respect for un charter, maybe they just stop a light, the tactic that the they usually are using when they want to achieve certain results from the, you know, your member states by twisting their hands, sounds like mailing them. we do not use these kind of methods. we are just referring to the charter of the united nations of the international war. we're saying that any investigations by the group for 20 to 31 will be legitimate
6:15 am
in the light of international law. because this is not a group of experts and for to conduct any investigation. they need a clear mandate from the whole of the security council and not the instructions from some of their members sound so far. there is no such a mandate. on the contrary, there is an understanding and security council that the session will be highly controversial to mildly and we think that it would be absolutely contrary to the un charter. so i think that the situation is absolutely clear from this point to get to another headline story today, the u. s. h, china's corona virus debt toll is a global concern because of its potential impact on economic stability. washington has expressed hope that china can get its cobit situation under control. but if that sounds a little bit strange, it is because it comes despite earlier repeated criticism of beijing locked on
6:16 am
politics. the whole of the virus is of concern to the well given the size of china's g. d. p. given the size of china's economy. it's not only good for china to be in a stronger position ve cobra, but it's good for the rest of the worlds as well. we, the united states continues to be a leading force for countries around the world and the provision of vaccines and helping countries overcome the phase of the virus. ready we certainly hope that will be the case before long in the sea as well. ned price, the spokesperson for the us state department, and he was criticizing china and talking about how at this point they hope china gets their numbers in order because the impact that co good rising in china could have on the global economy. and people are noting the irony of what's been said as
6:17 am
his boss, the head of the us state department, the secretary of state anthony blank and was just recently calling for 0 coded policies in china to be lifted and calling for the release of protesters. let's review what's been said by us officials. china has to figure out a way forward on dealing with what's covered away for that answers the, the health needs, but also answers the needs of people. i think we're seeing the chinese people speak up for more freedom against the co would locked down policies. i support that. the lockdown is, is not a policy that we're going to support here. when china had stringent anti coven policies that was declared to be repression. we have the u. s. government speaking out, a guest is describing china as the repair. and now that those restrictions have been lifted and coated cases in china are rising. we have china once again being can down. now the claims and the condemnations shine from us officials are laced in
6:18 am
hypocrisy. one will note that the united states leads the world in terms of coven related deaths. whereas china, despite having the world's largest population in 98 in the world, in terms of cobra debt. so nowhere near the united states in the number of koby related gas. so it's quite, quite hypocritical for us officials to be criticizing china, recovery related gas and talking about it. but this all fits a pattern with how the united states covers china, no matter what china does. china is condemned when kobe 0 coded policies were put in effect, they were described as brutally authoritarian. and then when those coded policies were lifted, we heard that this was a sign that president, she's in pain, was week guy. and that this was, that was a sign and he was giving in and didn't have authority and power that no matter what the us media and the u. s. politicians look for any excuse to condemn china and condemn its policies and portrayed in a negative light. and this latest statement,
6:19 am
this latest flip the script, if you want to call it, that is just a really blatant example of how we hypocritical and nonsensical us narratives. are the usa does not like a particular government, no matter what they do, they find a way to spin it in a negative way. peru, her name does its national intelligence, chief figure accused of committing crimes against humanity while serving in the previous administration. the new security head has said, current must protest which of grip the nation are essentially a terrorist insurrection. if you want to address the events that we are seen as a social conflict, we are in total error here. there are no social conflicts in each place where the police and the armed forces are attacked. there is a political objective and that is called a terrorist insurgence. over the past fortnight, more than 20 people have been reported killed as mass demonstrations turned
6:20 am
violence and made flashes with police protesters helping, calling for the newly installed president to resign after the previous incumbent was taken into custody. following his attempt to dissolve parliament and essentially lead by decree, i perused government house made some concessions to the protesters including saying the fresh elections will be held ahead of schedule the force of a local activists on the streets of lima. right now i don't facing a very of emergency. we have a military civic government right now by the number you updated that in alliance with the armed forces. i believe a bed of protesters and demonstrators across the country where we are having human rights . i retry the tensions very violent detention in
6:21 am
lima, but mostly in the provinces of ours on right now, there's a calling from national, right? we are for national solidarity. we are very afraid there's gonna be more debts will be more like violations. i obviously people across the country are very attentive, the state of emergency give them a young people and even children, so please leave them all over the world from your home. i'm not in america, north america. we are coming out for
6:22 am
a while. we do not want any more people feel that we're having us human rights a delay now. yeah, i promised you a busy day. it certainly is another story to bring you. there has been a new development in the so called tar gates scandal that's really shaken off the european parliament. some lawmakers are not accused of taking bribes, link to morocco, or t contribute, or rachel marston has been following history. it's certainly not the best look for the european union when the same officials who are so keen to lecture every one else about democracy and transparency. now find themselves with the big mass right under their own roof at the european parliament when the scandal broke. earlier this month and belgian authorities rolled up suitcases full of cash at homes and hotels associated with european officials. all eyes were focused on cutters, a legend involvement in the shady lobbying practices associated with the scandal.
6:23 am
particularly since the football world cup was on and cutter was the host country and had already faced controversy over how it may have been awarded those games. but now morocco has been dragged into this fiasco as well. thanks in part to an alleged confession by former european parliament vice president eva chi lee, whom the you parliament recently stripped of her role in title, internal investigation documents obtained by the press suggest that kylie had dealings with former italian. you're a deputy pierre antonio pans erie whom investigators alleged to have received cache from both cover and morocco, and who just happens to be the founder and president of a think tank called fight impunity. she had prior knowledge of her husband's dealings with mister pan's airy and that suitcases full of cash had been moved through her apartment. when it comes to transparency of its dealings with foreign countries, the european parliament apparently draws the line at morocco and voted against,
6:24 am
including it with cutter in resolution, demanding more transparency and accountability. here is the amendment to the resolution that euro deputies ultimately rejected. expresses deep concern about the allegations that morocco has also attempted to influence members, former members and staff of the european parliament through acts of corruption calls for the application of measures in line with those applied to the representatives of katara interests. while investigations are ongoing to widen parliamentarians shy away from having a good look at exactly how they've been dealing with morocco. perhaps they're worried about what anyone poking in to that particular dark corner. mike finds maybe a lot of cockroaches or rats scurrying around. particularly if questions start getting asked about various parliamentary friendship groups or the role of antonio's like pans. aries in, acting as intermediaries or middle men of sorts under the guise of intellectual and
6:25 am
academic respectability. it is long been an open secret that think tanks in the western world routinely serve to launder foreign lobbying interests in the us. they've even gone so far as to bundle and donate foreign cash to candidates to public office. former you foreign policy, chief federico maurine sat on the honorary board of pan series fight impunity. angio right up until the scandal broke. here's maurine telling you. crane how to fight corruption way back in 2015. we have primarily focused on the need for conduct of the anti corruption reform, which is the key factor to allow the international partners to trust in ukraine and as if that wasn't enough. here maurine is again, 2 years later, underscoring the importance of solid ethical guardrails. for ukraine, the anti corruption institutions, as we discussed and as we agreed,
6:26 am
must be allowed to do their work independently, with enough powers and resources to investigate, prosecute, and eventually ensure the conviction of those responsible for corruption. well, looks like you crane as well taken care of anything they might be up to you that she city. so how many board members like maurine of think tanks like pans aries, fight impunity in the u. ha. bother to take a look under the hood of those and yos, and insist on the same kind of accountability, transparency, and good practices that the e u demands of other countries. apparently that doesn't even exist at the european parliament, yet as the scandal is proving european commission, president ursula vander line just recently announced after this whole scandal broke, that she'll get right on. not now though, probably right after lecturing the rest of the world, few more times on the greatness of european values. well, we also heard from
6:27 am
a spanish law professor who says it's no secret that morocco has been lobbying e law makers to get what are fishing rights. the completion of western sahara has not only course a task of political jabante co meaning, but it has also an economy, meaning the worst sense to her now is the soles over huge benefits for the kingdom of morocco? no house be no, no, no my mental organization called western sahara russell's watch. the task calculated the amount of the money dut morocco receives exporting the phosphates from western sahara and old. so we know that the money the european union gives to morocco to get
6:28 am
a loud fishing in the occupied war. those was so sahara morocco export mainly to the european union, not only but mainly it were to union. this is just a one issue where we'd know exactly that, that is corrupt corruption, a european union level. and actually, as i said concerning them and most of the european parliament, this is not the secret. the and morocco has been lobbying them. ah, a former english popular turned t v commentator, ha, slum the british government for allegedly violating worker's rights. now to criticize the one sided approach concerning that guitar world cup coverage. nuclear cotton goldman in our country who it's even eyes and rail workers, ambulance workers and terrifyingly nurses. and she's not in our country. on earth
6:29 am
has nothing to fight for extra pound or 2 pounds gary levels. frustration comes as some $10000.00 nurses planned to go on strike this wednesday in protest that low pay u. k. p. m. richey soon arc, however, had back at the former mac, s. united players comments filling sport and politic shouldn't mix. i think when most people are tuning in to watch gary novel, they want to hear about the football. hm. watch the football. they don't want to discuss politics. well, that is the same richie soon. ok, who sent an openly gay sports minister to guitar? as england's official representative for the world cup the spy, strick had tore laws, and l g b t. support the minister were a rainbow tie and a so called one love arm band which had been banned by faith out the tournament. journalist independent journalist shade bows. say's its blatant hypocrisy from soon act and his morality is alec arts. the term here is gross hypocrisy. and i think most people who saw gary never comments in the you k would absolutely
6:30 am
supportive and you've got to remember. and that, you know, there's another card attitude right now in the u. k to many things. immigration exam, for example, most of the per, unfortunate people who are trying to make their way across the english channel are in europe because of the, you know, the aftermath of british or american interventions in the middle east, et cetera. so the, the overriding sense is that it's a policy and gary never had a been praising richie. so next policies, i'm sure she said i wouldn't have that posted as response. well, just a note on gary neville again, despite criticizing the plight of british workers, he also signed a lucrative deal to work with ec, atari broadcaster during the world cup a nation where migrant workers died. while preparing for the event here is being grilled a bite down on u. k. television equal choice, i think. govern. yeah. what going on? not going oh, my view always is b that you i the.
