8:01 am
wasn't for the french president who was condemning iran approach to demonstrations . both of the prime minister of palestine slamming israel for being driven by an extreme race. this policy, this company is just off to one of israel's top officials said there is no polished indian nation with at all sorts of talks going on today. the many behind closed doors, it is day to putin and it's chinese come to pop here and moscow and here at all to international will be covering all that live comments all day. ah, so what russia china relations have successfully overcome many difficulties over the years and that defined the logic of choosing moscow as the 1st place to visit
8:02 am
after the presidential election. that is the message from china's president teaching ping who's currently here at moscow on a 3 day visit. sanchez, 10 years ago after my 1st selection to the post of chairman, my 1st foreign 3 boss to russia. i clearly remember this visits, and it remains in my memory. the fact that i chose russia as my 1st foreign was a tough to being free liked it is completely consistent with historical logic because our countries are the largest neighbors and comprehensive strategic partners. our relationship has gone through many trials over the years and has grown stronger day by day. these, these, it is testament that their policy of sanctions of trying to isolate russia. well, it isn't working a 3 day visit by the president of the world's biggest economy, and that goes, there is a long way to show you where china's power is light,
8:03 am
who it is placing its bets on the school's. we have to bear in mind the trade between russia and china hos balloon. that is an all time all time high as well as relations we. we heard that the, the russian pilot is the said relations abetted out that at any point in the side or russian history of relations. and he said that that they're, they're stronger than they've been in centuries and centuries ever since they've been diplomatic ties. and while the numbers of the numbers back it up rosner, despite the unfavorable external situation, turbulence in global markets, increasing sanctions from the collective west trade in economic cooperation between russia and china is developing successfully. last year. our trade has increased by almost a 3rd and approach to $190000000000.00. i am convinced that this year we will fulfill the tasks set by you and president putin, to bring our mutual tray to $200000000000.00. the west makes no secret of the fact
8:04 am
that it also wants to isolate to restrain and contain china. and it has done so along the the south, along the south east of the pacific. and china is desperate to secure allies to secure a future for its new new silk road, for its exports. earth outside towards europe, towards africa, the middle east of some of those parts lay through russia. china has got a piece plan with it. and putin has said that they. busy will give it serious consideration. meantime, washington has said, well, we don't care. we're not interested in russia and china present some sort of piece plan for the conflict in ukraine. what do you, what kind of suspicions do you have about this much? you've spent so much time down there in that part of the world during this ongoing conflict statistically. looking back of the past 3 decades, the west has that hadn't been exactly in a big, big fans of,
8:05 am
of piece. i'd say the wars, libya, syria, iraq, afghanistan, china came in and suited up a backs and negotiated a peace deal agreement. we even talks between iran and saudi arabia. something that the west has either been unwilling or unable to do for many, many years. china is interested in stability, especially, especially throughout eurasia. it's worth saying that vladimir putin, yesterday and she duping, they talked at length for hours and hours. we have heard that their exchange was, was frank was very serious. and that was a wide exchange of opinions. busy they also talked about the chinese piece plan of the she, you know, we, we've seen leader after leader in europe in north america coming out and saying
8:06 am
that we don't want peace and ukraine. we want russia defeated. we want play jean change in russia. we want the president, as well as senior russian officials tried an international walk. they are interested in diplomacy at this time, which is in sharp contrast the china so naturally as is the way of the west. they have tried to discredit shipping's visit. they have tried to humiliate by saying it's it's, it's a junior partner in that it's giving up its sovereignty for china. anything to drive a wedge between basha and china, evidently from what we're seeing today, they have been unsuccessful. let's discuss it further here on the program with a new young sion in beijing, a senior fellow at the ty her institute. he's joining us her a naughty international, a very well welcome to today. so thank you very much for coming on this program during such important days. here as, as some people say, these are the days the history books are writing about. what do you think mr. young sion, the chinese president,
8:07 am
almost immediately in the days after his 3rd successful reelection, he comes straight to russia to nodes of the multi polar world right now in moscow. how do you, how do you describe the relations between russia and china these days? i think it's based on mutual respect and mutual benefit in this is our child would like to see the world and she's treat each other with respect and mutual benefit. i know that i see stability as the previous speakers said, cease is a stability so people can develop better life, better life. and this is what china did itself in terms of developing a physical economy who grew up on 3rd for 3rd world developing country for 30 years ago to what it is today. i think coming to moscow is very significant
8:08 am
. he gives the political message to the rest of the world and russia. i'm strategic analyze the case in rest of the world. another method, a china is interested in peace, in securing peace in securing dialogue. not interested in phantom fanning, the flames of war, not sending weapons, not for an oil and fire. this is the major difference that china has with the us and you some of the european countries. well as, as you say, mr. young sion, peace prosperity and mutual respect should be the tall order of the day, frankly, between countries are around the world i. we're all living under the same roof, rural part of the same house. but as you well know, the western political, than meter establishment, who had basically been saying that russia is now isolated on the world stage. and yet, according to many others in other hemispheres of the world,
8:09 am
russia is actually strengthening his position on the world stage, building alliances with the global south, the, and the east. why do you think that worries professional partners in the west so much? i think it, they worry because the germany of the united states or the western countries, the united states is on a decline. there's no question at the global. so now see through the hypocrisy that has been implemented by the u. s. and some of the western country. in fact, if you see if you look at, for example, opec cause now with the ron and saudi arabia, usually storing diplomatic relations. it's going to be a much more stronger organization with russia, with saudi arabia, with iran, with venezuela, with all these country allied,
8:10 am
the u. s. can no longer dictate the energy market. so i think the global south is aligning along russia and china in security. benefit for its own development rather than being pushed around by the west g teams. anything with the young gentry you think for any, i guess, you know, as you say, china is a peacemaker. it's done this a wonderful approach mall between our saudi arabia and, and iran in, in recent days and weeks. and it does seem to be positioning itself as a mediator of peace in, in the world. i want to ask you, um, do you think china is in a difficult position, trying to be somewhat cooperative with america in the long run, but also be very much cooperative with its immediate, more more media allies for example, whether it's a c on s, c o. ready or bricks, for example, you think china is having to do a very delicate dance these days. i don't think so. china's principles on this very,
8:11 am
very clear. the u. s. has been trying to push china and contain china and suppressed china's rise, which china's further development. but the us, i'm a say has not been successful. it is the u. s. when they have financial crisis, started chasing after the chinese government. these so, so any more us treasury bonds please help us. so i think the u. s. is declining. and whatever the case, china, we're not to come to pressure so the earth will continue to bill. like you said, brick a, c, o, and other south south. no collaboration seems, for example, last year in november, 1st time ever, e r a v at ahead, a states meeting with china. this is the 1st time in history that is head of state level by the administer level,
8:12 am
which was the previous 4. so these are things which are beginning to build momentum, and what's happening in the middle east is very clear as in countries is also very clear. so we were euro, you, you region mass with russia, china, i see in countries the middle east and the central asian countries, alive and supporting each other and treat each other with proper respect. yeah, very very interesting commentary that from a leo young sion senior fellow with a typhoid institute and co founder of impact asia capital limited a real pleasure having you on the program today. thank you very much for your time . thank you. thank you. as i continue, our conversations are on archie international. caustic live now to i not a tango, and founder and chairman of china, it is a blue book consulting joining us to live on our t. it's not full of very well welcome to you. great to have you on this program today we're, we're watching some, some big moves being made on the geopolitical chessboard these days. for sure. mean
8:13 am
time, the western media outlets are a criticizing the chinese leaders visits of moscow describing the deepening ties between russia and china is the west's worst nightmare. why would they say something like that? i mean, is it a fear of the emerging multi polar world, or is there something else? well, yes, it is absolutely a fear of the emerging multi polar world that would put us in a 2nd place just one of many. so at this juncture, fear and panic is kind of driving it. remember, originally the u. s. wanted to make sure that russia and europe did not come together. you're europe, manufacturing prowess with rushes. resources would have been i threat g u. s. gentlemen, economically. so unfortunately, what they've done is they pushed together china and russia,
8:14 am
which is even more fearsome cooperation. and at this juncture, they're in a panic. they're trying as best they can to isolate both not really possible for all the reasons that my good friend action has said. what i mean as, as, as you say, we are, we are seeing the strategic partnerships not popping up just in so many parts of the world now. and it's, i mean, it's almost like a ripple effect that is starting to go around the globe as we speak and yet, well let's, let's wait for a moment. the conflict in ukraine, china has said, has come to moscow with a peace proposal to bring the conflict to a peaceful resolution. meantime, john kirby and washington saying, we are not interested in a sci fi in the ukranian conflict mediated by china. why do you think washington is openly against ending that conflict? well, for, from beijing's perspective this,
8:15 am
this whole conflict was avoidable. you had everyone from kiernan and kissinger in the past and currently biden and the current had at the cia casey saying that extending western interests into ukraine would cause conflict. if china is the one who actually brings resolution to this and brings piece of this will hasten the demise of american soft power and expose it for a country that is merely acting its own interest. not the global interest off. the fascinating comment from your i this, i really appreciate you being so straight with us here on auto international. mr. tangle. what, what do you, what do you think? i mean, you know, that is one thing to talk about the ukraine conflicts. another thing to talk about, the multi poto world. what about the fact that in the past, what 10 days also we've been seeing some important bank said america, go essentially, go under, go down, go down that go down the drink so to speak. and we now worried about some sort of contagion. do you think people, countries like china, russia, the bricks group, for example, of a prepared to whether,
8:16 am
what might be an economic storm that comes out of the western hemisphere. not really, i mean, we have a global economy, the decrease in demand from the us in europe would be catastrophic for everybody resources. i would, you know, go down in terms of pricing. it would be a magnitude of, of depression that we have not seen since the 19 thirty's. so this idea that anyone will benefit is nonsense. the fact is that the u. s. in its own blindness by raising rates, created their own treasuries, they made them into toxic assets, and as a result, they're now suffering the consequences, but not just us. also the rest of the world by pushing up rates, the fed and depressed economies around the world as they struggled to keep up and raised their own interest rates further depressing their economies. and now you
8:17 am
have a complete mess. jerome powell will not be looked kindly upon in history, hence i not a tank and a senior fellow with a tie. her institute and founder and chairman of china cities, bluebook consulting. wow, very interesting comments from you. so thank you very much for joining us. so naughty international, we appreciate if you ah well, it is good to have your company for this program shifting gears ever so slightly here. now as the palestinian prime minister says, the current is ready, government is extremist and driven by a racist sentiment. now the stipend comes after a top is riley official said there is no such nation as palestine. it doesn't even have a language or history in not possible how to look the i'd love the statement by is really minister smo. trish that there is no palestinian nation and that it was
8:18 am
invented within the last 100 years is conclusive evidence of the extremist racist and scientist. ideology that drives the current israeli government. wiley are strong comments coming from both sides. let's discuss this further now. crossing locked our correspondent in jerusalem bearers, maria finacialow. maria, good to see you. so either what was the the hola washer say, what is the broader international reaction to such a statement as that? yeah, i have to say it was her and very extremely controversial in many se inflammatory statement by israel finance minister, the head of the countries far right. a religious zionist and party who is also, ironically in charge of the palestinian, the fairies and the countries new government miss the small church went as far as saint mary's. ne, such nation as palestinians there is no such thing as a palestinian nation. the reason or posting in history, there is no ballasting in
8:19 am
a language palestinian prime minister's reaction was quake obviously and pure if he accused israel of racism and extremism. no, no, levine, i'll play maley phillips. we are the ones who gave palestine its name and the land . it's value and status. this land is ours. dolah. israel is a colonial state established by settlers. it expanded like any other colony has done throughout history. bonnie, but we have learned from history. the colonialism will end the will of our people is not shaken by fabricated claims, from the falsifier of history, justly missouri. whew. small your statement came on the same day as israeli and palestinian delegations with mediation all the while to jordan and egypt held as security. some attain sharma, shame that taking steps to ease boiling tensions on the ground. the situation and the reason escalated recently dramatically with increased casualties from both sides since the beginning of the here,
8:20 am
at least 15 israelis have been killed in terror. attacks include any needs traversal him as well as more than 80 palestinians, mostly an idea of mil through age in the north of those are buying west bank. so tensions are really boiling on the ground and the un you, as you all have repeatedly called on both sides to come down and on israel. specifically to try to avoid have provocative actions such as supplement for expansion or policy in house. and the malaysian or strong words provocative words. of course, in this context of desperate international attempts to discuss the situation, jordan and egypt condense, motors claims these really ministers remarks deny the facts of history in geography and undermine the efforts aimed at achieving com between the palestinian and israeli sides. there was also a reaction from israel's western allies. d u,
8:21 am
a foreign policy chief describe this statement unacceptable. district spectacle and counter productive marsha phenomena. i'm so sorry. i'm gonna jump in here to interrupt you. i do apologize right now. we have to go straight to our live coverage here, the russian president and the chinese president as well here in central moscow live pictures for you right now. exactly. 321 p. m. on tuesday that delegations lined up here for another grand meeting between a china delegation and that of russia as well. and like pictures here from the hallowed holes of the kremlin and urology international, we will continue alive coverage. we got a lot of updates on all telegram channels and online at odd dot com. a lot of people saying these are the days that history books will remember. let's listen in just for a moment. here. as we have the russian president vladimir putin now coming into the main hallway of the kremlin, and his chinese count bought g ging ping. that's listening.
8:23 am
ah ah ah ah, ah, i spoke lida, continuing with a live pictures on auto international that is the russian national anthem with both president and gigi ping of china and russia, vladimir putin, that standing in the hallowed holes of the kremlin. we expect numerous agreements to be made today during the day 2 of this historic visit to the russian capital. this is one of the main templates, all of the new budgeting,
8:24 am
multi polar world and strategic partnerships, emerging and being bored. and so when a pod self disclose that we all live on now the global south, the bricks, nation, the shanghai cooperation organization and what many, all full cost. and that's what is essentially the inevitable decline of the uni pola head. you more enormous changes are taking place in the world today and here it often international we are keeping you today.
8:25 am
oh well, those are life pictures for you right there, right there from the center. all the russian capital that was inside the whole, to all the kremlin. and as you could see, it was the chinese president on his russian count about vladimir putin there during a big ceremonial walk through the holes there with a band on location, on the delegation, sporting what appeared to be at least 50 from either side. we understand that all a lot of agreements are being made between russia and china today, whether it's about our energy, strategic partnerships as well. and also the protectionism of these countries against potential sanctions, from certain professional partners in the west, there seems to be an understanding among many of the developing nations today that the dollar, the number one resort currency on of the world has essentially been weaponized. and there are countries who are concerned for their own sovereignty and independence, if indeed they cross over the wrong line, a red line,
8:26 am
perhaps with certain professional western partners. there are, there are moves being made today for a commodity back currency. hopefully, if not potentially to be soon announced by the bricks family member states, we'll keep it posted on that here on our team to national for the meantime. so good to have your company for this broadcast live from moscow. for now, shifting gears here on the program, a protest against pension reform and france on monday was smashed by what was a very heavy handed police presence. the incident in the national capital spout widespread concerns about an issue known as police brutality. ah, the french police don't to water demonstrate has not gone unnoticed. would you imagine? as far as the iranian foreign ministry has actually commented about the clashes iranian official saying,
8:27 am
the tactics used against the protesters violate the principles of democracy. the french police, resorting to violence against protests, is indicative of the french governments known commitment to the principles of democracy and freedom of expression advised to enjoy behavior and instrumental use of human rights stop resorting to violence and dealing with protesters for 5 consecutive days. french protesters have been marching against president microns efforts to raise the pension age. look at this. last week there were 4 was adopted though via a special constitutional power that enabled it took by a pause of parliamentary vote. no surprise the people are on the streets. however, meantime, has actually been very little criticism among fellow european countries on this matter. that is, however, in stock contrast, for example, as to what happened with iran, where there was widespread anger over its handling of nationwide for jessica. in fact,
8:28 am
the french president at the time was one of the most vocal critics. i am in favor of a strong diplomatic reaction and sanctions on the figures of the regime who have a responsibility in the repression of this revolution. we got the opinion of political commentator a john brickman. now he says that the west's approach of criticizing what happens elsewhere while essentially ignoring domestic developments, well, is a workman says that smacks of hypocrisy. i think the main lessons from this is that each county should take care of his own internal affair and nothing domain. and try to intervene in those of the counties because obviously he has no means to impose any sanctions on friends. do we live in west isa, imposing sanctions on their hands? now maybe the impression in your hands, so i'm willing to believe that it's a harsh on fans, but the hand, the suit subjected to a series of sanctions. evan seems that i'm a nation of 79,
8:29 am
and that's the book. i mean, it's always, i mean the west is of good read all is being said on the well, it's on kind of every event he's got presented of it can be blame on the version of the chinese university and then it's full of and if it's blame on the list, i'm going to simply note, i think the most asian in france, i'm a triple in the united states are hardly hardly hope in the united states, as well as a known. well, as the french retirement age is rising to a cup, a government coffers that are short, more and more money keeps being sent to ukraine. e. u. defense and foreign ministers of a great way to bailey on euro ammunition plan for re supplying the ukrainian little again, discuss the situation in ukraine and the support to be given to it. in particular, on the basis of the high representative proposal concerning the use of the european piece facility from the mission in order to accelerate the transfer of ammunition to ukraine. this will allow group purchases and therefore faster deliveries at
8:30 am
better prices. and finally, would the objective of strength thing, european production capacities. this is a concrete way to help ukraine in the funding is to be conducted in 2 stages. the 1st, the e. u is set to transfer a 1000000000 euros for ammunition. that can be quickly delivered. the 2nd stage is for funding a joint procurement pushed to produce nato caliber, a 155 millimeter artillery shells are thus with its assistance to ukraine. the e. u is also strengthening its defense industry, author and the political analyst. nicholas markovich says that while focusing on ukraine western elite, so turning a blind eye to their countries own internal problems, we discovered that there is money. there is money, but unfortunately, it's not used for the europeans. the europeans are going through a very tight economic situation. now inflation has skyrocketed, we've got unemployment,
