in the south china sea, china is building up its capabilities, and of course china's conductivity, 130countries have china has the largest trading partner. in the g7, they are introducing global infrastructure project. hashem: the war in ukraine has changed dynamics in the region, we are talking now about geopolitical realignments. president biden is saying the united states will have permanent u.s. army base in poland. i assume this would be a nightmare scenario for russia. vladimir: i would like to say this would not be to my mind the nightmare scenario because yes, you are right that dynamics have changed, but because this is a military conflict basically. the ground realities are not just in the military books. so i think russia is ready for that. what is more important actually that whatever the outcome of this russia-ukrainian conflict could be, i am not sure that in this cold war which will be prolonged, that in this new cold war, i am not sure the west will be the victorious side. not just like in the post-soviet union. hashem: if sweden and finland join nato, then the end alli

china and taiwan, which is called republic of china. this is an illegal proposition to start with, because there is only one china and taiwan is part of china. if the united states wants to recognize the republic of china, then the precondition is that they need to sever diplomatic relations with the people's republic of china. remember, back in 1979, the united states did just the opposite. they sever the relations with the republic of china and taiwan, and they begged the china to establish diplomatic relations with united states and china and the united states, back in 1979 over com all the difficulties and normalize the relations on the condition that the united states need to sever its to promote the relations with taiwan. the united states need to withdraw all its troops from taiwan. and the united states need to terminate its defense treaty with taiwan. the so called the republic of china. if the united states want to walk back all these decades of the one china policy, then they need to be prepared to sever diplomatic relations with the people's republic of china and prepare for all the consequences it will incur. no one is not give

china? china's motivations trying to getting involved now. so china has been fairly consistent in calling for a political resolution to what has happened at miramar. and the recent announcements from china have been relatively in line with that. china really wants to see a stable nation on its border. has been a place where it wants to do trade, extract natural resources, as well as have a safe access to the indian ocean. what seems to be difference, or what things have changed recently is that china now calling for dialogue between all parties. and it's also recently stated that all parties have reasonable demands, and this sort of shift and language indicates to a lot of analysts that china may be calling on the me and my military to start making compromises. and to start regarding those that has determined to be, are sort of branded as terrorist as legitimate stakeholders in the discussion of the future. antennas. also recently started using way around. we started democratic transition, which some others have interpreted as meaning that china is ac

, when he spoke with you and the minister of foreign affairs of china, eh, china promised that he would help ending the conflict, and china putin to start negotiations, but we know that they never started, and that is why china in this sense did not play such a role, for example, as even turkey plays the role of a mediator, so china's position is now aloof and neutral, he does not want his connection with russia, because it is very tactical, that is why he does not supply any weapons to russia, which would probably want such support, but on the other hand, for example, during all the days of the war, all zinfen did not call zelensky, although he had already communicated with we had a conversation with putin at least twice about this, and with baide, we also had a conversation twice, so this basically shows the attitude of china to ukraine, and in order to change this situation, kyiv must probably tell the chinese what they can actually do, what we expect from them as a guarantor of security of ukraine, which he took on in 1994 as our largest trading partner as a country that declared a strategic partnership with ukraine 1

china and its officials well, it is possible that the caution of china's position, well, among all the lights, is due in particular to the fact that in fact, if we project our history, it is to project our history onto the history of chinand up there in the coming years, as the analysts in front of you told us just yesterday, in the role that the russian federation currently plays in relation to us, how correct do you think it is to compare the case of china, taiwan with the case of russia, ukraine, look, they are the chinese e- e completely deny the possibility of such a comparison, because for china the taiwanese issue is internal, they can most likely compare, for example, taiwan with crimea and ukraine, and that is, that crimea is taiwan. but from their point of view, that is this is the territory that they consider their own. that is, it does not belong to any other state, and every state, any state that recognizes taiwan as an independent country, then it breaks, that is, china, er, breaks diplomatic ties with such a country , that is, china's position on taiwan, for example, is very it's clear whether dependence on taiwan or an attempt to declare independence for taiwan will cause a war, but it is the taiwanese w

china. it's not racist no matter if it comes from china. china. these people are stupid and they're dishonest. but it's more than that where this talking point come from,s it's racist to point out that covid came from china. well, this talking point becamen prevalent in marcht of 2020 e and it just soxa happens that's exactly when china's state owned media tweeted that terms like hong coronavirus were racist before china's government issued that order. our media here in the unitedta states didn'tte recognize the term wu hong coronavirus as a slur. e >> in fact,sler they themselves said it constantly. >> here's. the proof of coronavirus has now surpassed the twenty three sars outbreak . the first u.s. case of chinese coronavirus was confirmed at her hospital. one of her hospitals inside>> that building is the world's firstir lab grown copy ofon the human coronavirus outside mainland china. the chinese coronavirus death toll has jumped to at least twenty six people. de tdeath toll from the human coronavirus spiked today. the chinese virus,ro the coro

if china became russia, think about the economic consequences that were intertwined. 22% of american manufactured goods imports come from china. so just imagine china became like russia. you say i don't want to take imports. so people don't buy their nikes or apples or things produced in china and so on. you know what that would mean economically for news terms of the inflation rate and consequences? because of how they're intertwined. >> neil: the argument would be it hurts china more. >> who cares if it hurts china more? is that a win? when it hurts you terribly? so both -- when you have a war, both sides lose. i'm not -- i'm just trying to be practical here. >> neil: ray dalio. we've had such an enormous response to this interview with the world's most successful investor that we put the entire interview on our fox business site. all 30 minutes of it. so if you want to delve in there and listen to a guy who gets the big picture and sees the cycles and how to capitalize on it. making money in bear markets abull markets. it's the bear markets in the first half of the year when everything was melting down, he was making 32%. so he carries more clou

china will not be able to come into giving up. if china is serious about, it which i think they are, then they will be -- china's best, it's best overall >> and that's china's best military strategy? >> yes, it's best overall strategy, a wants to become dominant nation. what i call us consequential strategy, picking off parts of this coalition that it's gonna try to ballots. not only the u.s., japan, india, south korea, australia, taiwan. china's gonna pick off those, the weaker more vulnerable parts of that coalition. so, the rest of the coalition gets the idea that this coalition is just a hollow shell. and it will collapse. and china wants to dominate. china wants to be what you should said early, alluding to, china doesn't want to start a world war two -- he wants to do it bismarck did in the 19th century the unification of germany. bismarck to crush out from one state and many from euro, in the space about ten years toward denmark -- geopolitical map. and, that's what china if that strategy would be, the best military strategy in that context, how do we take down the volume of parts of the coalition. which again, they don't want t

they never want to provoke china no matter how many labor camps china is operating. >> we are a brand of chinand for china. do you feel you have to sacrifice your values at all as a company to do business there? >> not at all sarah we participate in sport all over the world including china. chine is i is a very important market to us we continue to invest in china and will continue to invest in china. >> laura: big business entire agenda is to make it easier for themselves to set up shop in china and ultimately ship more american jobs over there. third, well, the academics and universities make so much money off china, remember the research grants, swanky trips thousands of chinese students, 350,000 to be exact studying in the united states, they don't want anything to jeopardize that. that's a cash cow. of course of course our regime media. they've always loved carrying water for china. they know they'll be really embarrassed for getting it wrong all these years if pelosi goes over to taiwan and is treated really badly by the ccp. so they don't want her to go because it would expose their com

shery: how much of that being the china story being factored in? >> china is not so much china locking down, it is one person, being much more autocratic. the negative sentiment out of china. china is in decline, incremental decline, you see copper and metals and you never have good commodity rallies without china expanding and a weaker dollar. we are getting the opposite and central banks being aggressive. i think what we are seeing is the beginning of that plunge. if the stock market keeps going up, the fed keeps tightening more. shery: great to have you buy for our top stories today. do not miss our special coverage of the fomc decision. it is 1:30 a.m. in hong kong. but us get to vonnie quinn -- let us get to vonnie quinn. >> china is getting prepared for nancy pelosi's possible visit to taiwan. they have not ruled out plans to visit taiwan, no final decision has been made. it could come days after an expected call between president biden and xi jinping. china is forcing the biggest companies to operate within a closed loop for seven days as the southern manufacturing hub b
