the, the, the part of buddy, i'm rick sanchez. i've been doing news now for 30 years and 2 languages all over the world and here in the united states and i've interviewed for presidents and found in a $1000000000.00 business. and you know what? i think i think new should be honest and direct and impactful, which is why we call this direct impact the it may be unintended consequences, it may be a fire, maybe as it's infamously referred to by the c i a, you've heard this term right? blow back, call it whatever you want, but there's something happening right now with china, which is no doubt directly related to our government's actions. that's right. and

the pattern goes something like this. the more that the united states, this is china, the more the china wants to assert itself, globally. it began with she hammering out a truce trials between 2 countries that have publicly hate each other, despised each other. now for more than 7 years. this year and between the a rod and saudi arabia is rooted in doctrine, in history, in the religious differentiation proxy wars that have dominated the middle east. headlights, but suddenly in steps of president, she who seemed to shock the global community by getting t ron and re, uh, to sign an agreement. we establishing diplomatic relations between the 2 runs for administer, had described the meeting with the san d gone,

depart as positive and emphasized that stability and sustainable security. and the common agenda were among the issues agreed upon. the 2 sides will also study the prospect of resuming flights between the nations while facilitating the visa process for the citizens. and no sooner than that, the deal was inc. it was on to another meeting. this is the president of china, another meeting, another attempt, the peace making, this time looking for a solution to the conflict between ukraine and russia. the

so after establishing what appears to be an amicable relationship, mister, she presents present and putting with china as 12 point plan to end the conflict which calls for dialogue, respect for both countries, territorial sovereignty, an end to a beacon nomic sanctions. he also urges both parties to avoid nuclear escalation, and that by the way, did not seem like a major point or a relevant point when the plan was 1st presented. but then this up, did you hear about this? the u. k announces that it would send tags to ukraine containing depleted uranium, which seemed to enrage russia who are saying the shelves contain enough radiation to make dirty bombs. so as for the she plan, a cleaning of itself. here's our mr. boot and respond to

the suspicion that people usually need me for you to when you 1st of all agree to. so can i come in? when can you tell me when you initially elizabeth wasn't, was a subsidy. renting here one minute to 100 ticket to you a comment this issue because manage the risk where it is being specifically reduced to somebody junior. that's not a police or anything. i don't know. how did you make this up by some significant from going into the grocery store and looks like they're joining us now is journalist uh, marco fernandez. marco, uh, thanks so much for joining. i guess we have to start with your rod and saudi arabia agreement. this is historic, i mean the seem to come out of nowhere of all countries, china stepping in and, and, and, and, and settling this thing, the eval communist hell bent on world domination as they've often been referred to

. what's your reaction had this happened them? yeah. china, okay, make that's, that was mind blowing agreement about his expecting and i just, i went excuse to tell a little story one minute. so here a few weeks ago i was i didn't b, g. so i had to go to show high should a tv show there. so i went to the airport in the morning and i got to plan everything to try. so i see by the window and look at my side and the runway and i saw a airplane official airplane of the islamic republic of your end. i saw a swamp, but what's going on? i, i didn't hear about any delegation running delegation in china. i mean, follow the news every day and present bracey just had beads in the gene looks like a couple weeks ago. so why is, is that things like okay, i don't know,

i have no idea. so i will show hi, shoot the show and of the day go to, i'll go to have some drink in a bar and listen to, i mean i would my cellphone, sell it as a brake. me is started the agreement between saudi arabia and he ran after 7 years of broken relationship. i was like, sure that was why the airplane was there. my god. i mean this, they were in b, u for 4 days, 5 days. nobody knew about it. when selling this, 1st of all, because i think distorted sounds a little bit about how trying to use diplomacy works. why, why countries more and more countries can trust china. because they are really reliable partner. i mean, imagine if like to hide status delegation of started raven run in the country, another country for 5 days, and nobody knew about it's very hard to happen. but in china they have, they have

a way to say, ok, this is top secret. let's discuss behind the scenes and then we come out publicly. so this is a 1st thing. but i would say also this, this, there is a way of chinese diplomacy that is being like, i think and more, more appearing, appealing to the whole world, which is a different way of doing traditional relations. first of all is dialogue consultation consensus. you know that chinese culture is very much based in process is the, is a culture is like daily life. so i think this does express in chinese diplomacy, but also of course as a comic interest. of course, i mean china is the largest buyer of almost everything, almost every commodity in the world right now. started rate. there is a 2nd um, 2nd largest exporter to avoid the china. you ran, i mean, china has

a huge agreement with the run a couple of years ago. they say like, maybe $400000000000.00 in 25 years. you're was providing oil and gas. the china, china is providing technology for structure, 5, g sub ways, trains, etc. so of course, i mean the 3 of them together have and of course china is in the middle that has viewed economic interest. so what it, what is, what is the best for them? is to okay, let's keep fighting wars, let's get paid each other and we don't talk to each other and we fund other. i don't know, melisha is against each other. i mean guys, let's sit and talk like aids. and that's kind of let's make business. of course it's about business, but it's about like a different, a best for development for the countries. so i think more and more countries, especially the global solves look at the china say, okay, we get to deal with these guys. they're not coming here evading. no country, julie,

thousands of hundreds of thousands of people, devastating countries in and few years or after that they just really, i mean, i don't know, they just got a sanction us 12 our economies. this is not the way the china thinks that should behave with other countries. so i think this is, i mean it's, it's almost almost as right. but i think this is a kind of common sense that the west mist long time ago. why do you think by the way, marcos, that uh, that they did it now or is, are they trying to send a message to the united states to the west? i think it turns into a message, of course, but i don't think this is the chinese a bike cd here. then you'll get a legs that send messages to us. oh, i mean let's, let's propose something different from the wolf to the world, which is not wars that's not destroyed. countries let's, let's respect countries like respect other cultures. so in this says, it is a message. but as i said again, this is,

this is also in comic interest. this is american interest. and at the end of the day, i think also the countries of the global styles, more and more realizing that if we are divided among dollar sales, we're going to be weaker to deal with with the western box. so guys, let's even talk because that's at the end of the day we, we go so we give them color, we are 80 percent of the population of all and, and, and actually we were present in the last years 70 percent of the growth of the global big growth. so the, the, the, the dynamics of the economy is shifting from, from the global knowledge of the global saw. so why should we be divided fighting each other? why should we not unite and go to the 20. i am as

a united nation, this with us from the voice to do with this guys our former go magics. the china says that the united states antagonism towards them is the reason that they're, you know, establishing themselves what as we spoke about a little while ago, globally, do you think that's true? do you think it, this is causing china's emergence or desire to assert itself globally? that's a good question. re, i think i'd say the 1st of all i've seen take the example of china and rush both china and russia in domestic case. many sectors of society develop deeper relations with united states. nomic lee, even that culturally. so, this sector, the side of talking about media is a, be from business people to middle class just got what to go to us,

study university of cetera. so more and more with this been crazy aggressiveness of us against both russia and china. what is happening to this sector society? some of them just have to shut up. because, i mean, you, you can't support a country, always like bashing your country every single day. then when the icing, your nationalities, and when i as in your culture. so that's the 1st thing. and i think this is clearly happening in both. i mean this, this, this both trying to rush. uh, i mean, internally they are getting more united in the same as the global software shut about the countries. this also happening truly in china and russia right now in the nationally sectors. they drive a sectors. uh they try to think would be the best word of english. they were just guys. look, this is, this is what us is about united. loved us,

but i'm sorry they don't log you. so i think this is happening. and finally, i think i a big mistake of nice days in nature right now. and this is not market say, this is henry kissinger saying, guys, you guys are crazy. you guys are unify united states and china. i'm sorry, i'm a kissinger. i worked hard guys. 50 years ago to put a match between russia and china to divide them. that's why i went to debate and that's why we brought china together and we divided china and rush. so they doing that at the time. and you guys crazy. now you guys are you, you united the, i'm sorry, this is so side. but the problem again that was a mean is, this is our guess common sense, right? just like strategic common sense. but again, guys like blinking victoria. no. then, i mean, i think they are very behind common sense right now. and this, what do they think? because what they're doing now in 5 years from now, i mean,

you saw what she told 14. so this is a shift in history that we haven't seen a 100 years, and we're driving this transformation at them. and this is the imagine will to happen 3 years ago, 4 years ago. but this is what you asked, has been producing marco, do me a favor, stay there, cuz we're gonna come back in just a little bit. i want, there's a couple of things i want. i want you to go over with us. okay. by the way, i should mention to you, i have a pod cast where as a journalist, as a latino, as an entrepreneur, i tell my story and share with you what i've learned about how to succeed at a grow and some of the things we talked about here on this particular show called a rick sanchez podcast. check it out, and i'll see you there. okay. when we come back more on the growing tension between china and the united states, and specifically, what china has to stay right there. the

the reason the problem, the soldier monument was erected in 1947 in the estonian capital by the soviets authorities origin. any bells about the burial side of troops remains its memorials of the soldiers who gave their lives in world war 2 will say risk at the department

service give waiting for the transition. in 2007, the associated government decided to relocate the monument from the city center for one year on the timing of cops by me to a to where in the 1st season to move divided the population. the stony is large of russian speaking communities, strongly opposed. it an intense rising broke out in town in these have since become known as the bronze night drive. people across the bay accuse trouble being engaged various 4 and corrupting scams. and now it's coming out that dividing family was taking money from almost anybody around the world to line the pockets by them you know, the, by the democratic use,

trump of various sexual misconduct. there's all kinds of allegations, circulating, bite and concern man. and concerning far worse misconduct. and so i think what you see is a lot of construction through project and what they accuse trump of is what they themselves are, gives you the the hey, welcome back. i'm rick sanchez. there's a new target in the war of words and deeds between china and the united states. beyond the military exercises along the taiwan straits, the rest of the daughter of the founder of walk away the spy balloon episode. and the dicey heated rhetoric between these 2 countries enter the tick tock war. but us congress wants to band tick tock, calling the social media sites were follow or share videos. a danger to america and

president barton seems to agree to talk see a show has come out fighting. he's the 1st thing he did, even before meeting with congress, was he put out this video to all his tick tock, followers in the united states. a. hi, everyone is joe. here, i'm the ceo of take talk. i'm here in washington dc today, and i have some news and updates to share with everyone here today. i'm super excited to announce them more than a 150000000 americans on take time. that's almost half of the us coming to take talk to connect, to create, to share, to learn what just to have some fun. this includes 5000000 businesses they use take talk to reach the customers and the majority of these a small and medium businesses. now these numbers are amazing, and i'm so thankful to all of you. and the $7200.00 employees in the us helping us build this incredible community in america and around the world. now this comes at

a pivotal moment for us. some politicians has started talking about banding to talk now this could take, take talk away from all 150000000 of you all be testifying before congress later this week. to share all that we're doing to protect americans using the app and deliver on our mission to inspire creativity and to bring joy. let me know in the comments what you one your elected representatives to know about what you love about take on. joining us once again is marco fernandez to talk about this situation is tick tock, thing this new thing congress is considering a bad on tech doc. it's one of the largest social media platforms in the world, as you know, they think. in fact, they said repeatedly that it is a chinese bi tool. is it? what do you make of that? well 1st of all, i think it's, it's important to, to remind that the child is accomplished by dance. they already agreed

with a us government to be um, to have like a, a strong us supervision overview about about the data. they, they agree, okay. we can store our data in the cloud. you guys tell us to do you guys have access, you guys can control that. and they say no, you have to sell the company. so, i mean, it's clear what's, what's going on. they just one to steal the company, to grab the company from the chinese because a very successful company. i mean this, i'm sorry, i'm a big god, father fan for me. i just just remember, i mean we were going to make an offer. you can't refuse. this is mafia. this is a positive behavior, right? say no, this is obligations is our way or the highway. so this is for me is clear, but i think of course the, the, the issue of the data it's, it's a very complex thing and get you the words because i think you have more question

about it a, by the way, what do you, what do you think willy is bringing this on and been at the china proper again and the china paranoia. but this is again, i think is it's a, it's a commercial issue. they, they just wanna take advantage and read the very successful company. and we find a way it's funny because you know that the talk doesn't make money and us at all actually lose a lot of money in us where they really make money, isn't china. and why? because the way to talk makes money. is that because i mean you and me like spend, i don't know like 20 minutes a day, just look into like buy stands for years and know that's not how we make money. they make money because we try to the sell stuff. this is a huge platform already competing with alibaba. we, j. d, people just sell stuff to live streams as we're doing right now, but we're just selling ideas or we just exchanging ideas. they sell the titles to

mean peasants trying his best in selling potatoes and getting potatoes to people in the big city close by. so this, i'll make money in wise, possibly china and not in us because china has a huge logistical infrastructure right now. it's great, sometimes i get scared like a friend of mine was like just moves and then he said, oh i want to tv isn't like saturday one and they go to like online. but for him, he buys a television in one hour, like 2 am in the morning and sat saturday and he got the tv. this is a crazy logistics. if a ship to china has us doesn't have they don't, they don't know how to do it. this is going to be a problem for them, even if they grab to the dock. let's see how they would make money because deduct is losing a lot of money in the us right now. one of the problems i think with these accusations is that i detect a bit of hypocrisy here on the part of our government. given that,

you know, we often or at least are politicians on our media, often condemns countries for blocking social media for not giving free access to media for not allowing citizens to express themselves for reclaiming. as we often do, these countries aren't like us, they don't respect free speech. is that kind of hypocritical, eric? i mean, there's a lot of hype blockers, e f, a one side because we know that the fact that you, me, and our audience, all of us are twitter is a grand facebook quest. that means state department has all of our data. they know us better than our sense to know our desires. they know what we like. we don't like what we buy, we don't buy. and this is data is a huge issue data. there's lot of people say the data is the view wild because this is what mean this is what makes money. now this companies sell the data that they

have about us. so and us has access to everybody in the world, but china. so this is, i think is a 1st thing. the 2nd thing is that i would also wouldn't be naive in this issues of data because it's not that are we should just have a free mark and everybody know this is, this is also national security. i think china was at a very clever or a smart way, like few years ago or they come to us best on this. okay guys, you wouldn't be in china. this is trying to is data. we need to have control the same thing that i mean by day is proposing us. oh okay. you guys can control. yeah. trying this. okay. we need to talk, we need to have access to. rita said no way. google said no way. so k, i so a lease you cannot stay in the country. of course people here in china, everybody accessed this, this, that phones with dpn. but there is this issue. so you cannot just say that data

should be free, everybody should access. no, that's actually this is a, uh, this is a trip. uh, this is a kind of narrative is a trap for us because it's in the day all the data goes to the state department. so i think there's a very complex issue at the end of the day, what we should discuss is how the states, how the nations out should deal with data. because it's our data is my data, is your data, but is actually captured by private companies without any, i mean this, they have no limits. so this kind of restrictions is kind of, i mean, this kind of, the base of policy is that we should, we should, we should have been doing in, in, in, in the countries. china is doing this right now. there's a big debate in the country about what is the fact of the data who should control should not control. but unfortunately, most of our countries we just accepted. okay. do your, is amazing. i have to and of course, but i mean, it is dangerous because this is

a way also of us to have access to all of us. how does china respond? if they do, how do you think china will respond? maybe better put to the blocking of this app will they response they, they say. so they say so, and again, this is hard to predict. and by saying, of course, china is being more and more tact now is to talk. but there's a whole issue about the chips to send somebody from doctor's of the hughes of war. and that right now us is kirby axis. uh china. we had a huawei issue, so i mean, i suspect they're gonna do something. they have been saying that, but we don't know yet what they're going to do. marco, thanks so much. i really appreciate your time and look forward to talking to you

once again. hey, before we go, i want to remind you of our mission here at simple really, it's to the silo the world. we've got to stop living in these little boxes, you know, because troops don't live in boxes. truths are, truth is everywhere. how much interest i'll be looking for you again right here, where i hope to provide some direct impact the the, [000:00:00;00]

the take a fresh look around there's a life kaleidoscopic, isn't just a shifted reality distortion by power type vision with no real opinions. fixtures, design to simplify will confuse really once a better world, and is it just as a chosen few fractured images present? it is, but can you see through their illusion going underground? can the, the claims of the king of the belgians leopold the 2nd to the congo were finally

authorized by the leading european countries in 18. 85 in the very heart of the african continent states under the rule of the belgian monarch was declared. since the beginning, the congo free state was total may him for the local population and functioned as a universal concentration camp. the majority of the population, including women and children, were forced to work on the rubber plantations. those who failed to fulfill their quota were beaten and mutilated to keep the congo these people under control. the king set up the so called forest bleak which were punitive detachments that cast terror on the captured country and its inhabitants varying that their subordinates would simply waste bullets hunting for wild animals. the officers demanded that the soldiers gave an answer for every bullet use, and as proof presented a job hand of an african, it was not uncommon when drying to justify the use of the munition. the colonist

amputated the hands of not only those who were dead, but also of those who were kept alive via atrocious exploitation of the congo. turned into a real genocide. you know, late 20 years the policy of the belgians laid to the death of nearly 10000000 people alongside the holocaust. the genocide of the congo population is considered to be one of the grimmest pages in the history of mankind. the, the, the,
