of all the un such a general was what's here in beijing, in any case and gave a speech today. however, i think what we also see in lots of the documents that have come out to the is a big emphasis on global south and also some areas. if you look at the beijing declaration, for example, the areas where there are a lot of a co ins, coinciding views and consensus between china and african countries from issues such is called the a and, and on the sort of multi polar world that seems to be a lot of consensus and so that's interesting in itself. but also it means that for instance, in this summit we had to china upgrading the relationship with the overall continent to an or with a partnership. that sounds very talking me, but it does mean of effectively african countries are becoming much more important and time is for him policy. okay, so a new shift we had mentioned that of cause your country took out the international court of justice case against israel. there's real needs and i've spent time in new york in the un general assembly among some african nations with regard to the w

how is beijing reacting to this? in the report by alexander baletsky.ments between tokyo and canberra at the meeting of the ministers of defense of foreign affairs did not come as a surprise, and australia's joining the american-japanese military exercises planned for next year only formalized what american allies have been doing regularly, containing china in technical and military terms. as for technical cooperation between our countries and the united states, we agreed to continue developing cooperation in the field of counter-strikes that will use japan's capabilities to repel enemy strikes and australia's capabilities to deliver. shifting the focus from taiwan to the philippines in general , the south china sea, the united states, taipei still do not forget, the new director. of the american institute in taiwan, which is de facto not an institute, but an embassy, ​​said that washington would not mind establishing the production of american weapons on the island, in addition to what it already sells to taipei. since 2010, the government the us infor

despite the fact that the world has been telling for a long time that beijing rules moscow, the world wrong about this, and the main premise of the chinese position is the 12 points and the so-called six points, of which only... one can be called a program point in chinese - brazilian proposals, they cannot be implemented because they proceed from the false premise that the kremlin can somehow stop somewhere, any stoppage for the kremlin is only a build-up of strength to continue the war further. i don't know who else needs to be explained that in this situation, an attempt... to convince someone that trade in the territory of ukraine can somehow satisfy führer moskovsky? well, didn't munich teach everyone? if next year russia increases the budget, the military budget, the war budget by 40%. if spending on the military budget is three times higher than total spending on education. health care and all social together on three articles, isn't it clear that the level of militarization of the economy is the basis for the fact that the führer will wage an endless war in the future, and his
