u. s. aircraft carrier, the u. s. s. while the reagan has just sailed into the south china sea, and it's being accompanied by 2 ships, a guided missile destroyer and a guided missile cruiser. now this is really going to send a message to china that it cannot just continue to do what it wants in these waters, and that the u. s. will continue to maintain a strong presence in that region. this is most certainly going to aggravate beijing, which considers the south china sea. it's orn backyard. between you invasion, that's very much for the update. now, hong kong government says it's highly concerned about reports of a possible leak from a nearby nuclear power plant in the chinese city of townshend, which is about 135 kilometers west of hong kong. chief executive kerry lamb says she's in touch with authorities in one province after the plans. operators said they're fixing what they're calling a performance issue. the power stations, other operator, french energy drive e d f says it's begun examining a potential build up of ga

u. s. s. port, russia and china together. the u. s. has put iran into that axis. everything the u . s. claims to be fighting against it's actually promoting overseas, which makes me wonder, are they really that stupid or is this whole thing just a big game, to keep the military industrial complex, churning and churning and those millions of dollars going into the pockets of the well connected inside the beltway, i don't know the answer, peter. i think daniel, they're both true at the same time. ok, given this professional managerial class and international relations or domestic, anything they touch, they destroy. ok. and i think it's, it's greed, it's hubris in their ideologically blind. ok, and this is what the result of it. and you know what, daniel, the world can move on. ok if the u. s. you know, once to say it owns all the marbles on the playground, you know, and walks off with them fine. there's a world beyond the united states, okay. and the d dollarization that's going on left and right across the world it's, it's again, self inflicted here. let me, let me go to the glen here

u. s. is extremely warring. cohen, professor at john hopkins, said that the u. s. s. 4 major threats and the biggest threat today definitely for which the u. s. is ready to have some sort of military type of response is the rise of china. and us is really afraid of russia getting close to china. and don't forget that the us build up china for a long time. the west naval countries. america thought that china was going to be an eternal sweatshop, but that's no longer the case today. so i'm trying to now dominating technology building. it's on planes building a strong military defending itself. and it's not responding only to the requests of western company, western companies and russia is getting closer to china. but don't forget again that the u. s. has been pushing russia towards china with the sanctions, with the aggressions, with all the finger pointing. and all this, this is only bringing, this is brought russia and china closer together and they're doing today. $1000000000.00 deals technology in banking and construction, and the dollar rising. they're not using t

u. s. should do. and so also an acknowledgement that the u. s. has lost the war. if the u. s. has been bombing taliban positions while it was occupied with large numbers of military forces and u. s. military bases in afghanistan for 2 decades. and that did not defeat the taliban. why would the resumption of air strike after the u. s. is gone and after u. s. air bases are removed from the country, meaning that those, those planes have to come from the gulf. why would that be effective militarily? so what's happening is, and it's a rhetorical question, of course. so what's happening is, the pentagon and the by the ministration are now pointing fingers and debating and trying to provide some semblance of a plan b when they leave and should the country while to the taliban. if in fact, the afghan military can sustain itself, which is very likely. so i don't think that this is really a plausible or valid military strategy. maybe it's a face saving measure to kill some more people and f ganeth then. but the fact of the matter is, the u. s. has lost the war, and the u. s. is leaving,

u. s. is back, the u. s. is there, the u. s. will defend its nato allies. it does mean something. it's not just atmospheric that does create more of a sense of security among these allies who are bound to go to war for each other if necessary. and, and the truth is that during the trump administration, he didn't make a lot of changes on the ground even though he threatened to. so most u. s. reassurance measures physically are still in place and everybody is, is very much welcoming these the words from president bite and that tell them if needed we will use our defense mechanisms to protect you. our allies. thank you for that territory. show that nature headquarters in brussels and the german marshal fund is a nonpartisan policy organization that's aimed at strengthening trans atlantic ties . dr. carina 1st is deputy director of the brussels office and joins us now. welcome. dr. natal leaders are working towards an up dated strategic a concept. how is that likely to be different from its current form drafted in 2010? good afternoon. thank you for having me. it is hugely the friends,

u. s. is actually sailed one of its aircraft carriers, the u. s. s. ronald reagan into the south china sea and it's accompanied by a guided missile destroyer and missile cruiser. now this is undoubtedly going to send a message to beijing that it can't just do what it likes and these contested waters . and that's the u. s. to tend to maintain its presence in the, in the pacific and this is most certainly going to aggravate china, which considers the south trying to see its own backyard. katrina, katrina, you, that in bay j. now you as president joe by miss meeting you, lead as a day after he promised rock solid commitment to defend nato allies. he's holding talks with the european council president johnson shell and european commission chief of 70 lamps. they're expected to discuss a range of issues including china. also the current of iris climate change, trade and technology to for more let's cross live just that vasily who's standing by for us in brussels steps, a lot of issues, lots of issues like commenting on the agenda. but the, today's mainly

u. s. they have all condemned this twitter band. i mean the, the u. s. s that has no place in a democracy. don't you need foreign investments to help build your economy we need for an investment. we also need for those countries to be mindful of the fact that i prob and such groups have been engaging lobby firms like mike you, republic affairs, for instance, that it's paying $85000.00 a day to churn out, such negative stuff to, to go into full court press on us senators and, and prominent people, prominent politicians so that they would create this negative narrative about nigeria and which is far from the truth. and those were on ground. know that. and the forest of the british high commissioner in the year is aware of that, because now she's on the receiving end. she's being threatened by the same i pulled by number economy the lead of april. and mister ambassador, i'd like to ask you because i mean, what is clear is that the economic situation in the country is not good. unemployment has more than quadrupled since to hurry took office. more than half of

u. s. says this is a strike against the p. m. s, because the u. s. have been attacked by them. okay, that's fine. but the p m if is part of the iraqi security apparatus is sponsored by the state. so does that not muddy the waters between the 2 countries where it's long been a bone of contention between the rocky federal army, for example, and the popular mobilization of forces. america actually supplies with weapons will help with training the rocky. it doesn't do that with the problem, i believe ation forces. a large number of those forces are backed by iran, and that's where they get the weapons from the been getting them since 2014 from iran. so the question many have been asking is, who do these p m s actually are so to do they are to iran or do they are going to be iraqi government? normally they do come under the control of the prime minister. in fact, there was a parade just a few days ago with a p. m. i showed in for se weaponry and the manpower that they had on display iranian weapons clearly, but the prime minister was actually there. and he complimented the popular mo

u. s. aircraft carrier has just sailed into the south trying to see the u. s. s roll reagan and it comes with 2 other ships, a guided missile destroy and a guided missile cruiser. and that they're really presumably to send a message to begging that the agent cannot simply do what it wants in these waters that the u. s. and other countries are taking notice, and the u. s. is going to continue to maintain a strong presence in the, in the pacific. beijing is not going to take kindly to, this is going to be extremely aggravated. and perhaps even see this continuing us activity in the region as some sort of provocation, as it sees the south trying to see as really its own backyard. could really you in beijing, thanks very much for the update. now, russia's presence has relations with the us or at the lowest point in years, but stresses he's open to dialogue on a range of issues. lot of putin has made the comments ahead of a meeting with joe biden on wednesday on us. not showing those federal and you that we have a bilateral relationship that has deteriorated to what i

u. s. s. relationship with israel because the 3rd thing you need to know is that the u. s. has always been israel's biggest supporter. ah. more of the friendship between israel and the united states, the americans, israel's oldest and best friend in the world. the united states is the same with you as your strongest ally and your greatest friend. i will always stand with our great friend and partner the state of israel for palestinians and often feels like this friendship comes at their expense. and under president trump, it reached a whole new level. he recognized jerusalem is the capital of israel and move the u . s. embassy there from tele vive. this ignored palestinian claims to east jerusalem as their capital. he polled more than $200000000.00 in aid of the palestinian authority. and the u. s. had opposed israeli settlements, but trump reversed that policy. so going forward. the question is how the bite and administration might do things differently. and so far there has been a change of tone compared to the trump years. i'm here to underscore the commitment of the unit

s. s in question, and the u. s. and russia looking to pursue their own projects, is there likely to be more of a focus on competition than on the collaboration that we saw in the past? yes, but i think it's gonna come from a different sector and that's the private sector. we're starting to see the rise now of entities that are looking to build their own private facilities. and that is just going to grow and accelerate it is. you know, russia is talking about splitting off and doing their own thing. personally. the more the merrier to me, i think, you know, having just one big federal facility in u. s. federal dominated throw facility in orbit is less exciting to me and seeing an orbital st with a lot of activities going on. and i think as, as this all begins to play out, we're going to see more and more of that. that will be the chinese thing. they'll be a russian thing. they'll be private sector things eventually. i believe they'll be more private sector activities going on in orbit and beyond. in our government. i'm glad you bring up the private sector because they are becoming an even bigger player in this industry. and as we're seeing, rocket lab has one a nasa contract for its kitchen, oven sized spacecraft that would be sent to the martian orbit to study the planet. now we don't know the cost and they say that it is a less costly alternative. so is this just another example of how the private industry is not only becoming more popular, but also helping to drive down cost? well, this is music to my ears. this is stuff good friends of mine and i am working on for decades to tr

u. s. is key. african allies was always called the anchor of stability for the u. s. u. s. interests in the hold of africa. so since the conflict began, biden ministration has taken a very soft, softly approach in some way. the bye didn't ministration seize africa in many ways through the prism of china. and the biggest fear that provide administration might have is that china, which already has huge investments in ethiopia, will consolidate batteries if you will be lost in inverted commas to china. and trying to came up a number of times at this house foreign affairs committee meeting. so it was late may, really to the by did ministration began getting tough with your peer with sanctions on visas. all these, you know, drew with the withholding of these is very few yet and they're a try and officials. but it was the key that, but there's that sense that they haven't really been doing pushing hard because they do not want to alienate if you they were happy to think of this as a domestic matter, much as you know. so some other nations often looked at, looked at these issues
