with china.o, in all of this, how do young taiwanese people see their future? if you ask them, would you consider yourself. a taiwanese or a chinese? 80% will say, i'm only. taiwanese, not chinese, because we are so different. hello and welcome to a special and rather different edition of unspun world. as donald trump comes back to power in washington, i'll be looking at several of the key conflicts which he faces and giving a bit of a personal view of how we got here. this first programme will focus on the relationship with china. because china is a country which over the last ten years has become increasingly difficult for media organisations like the bbc to operate in, i've come to taiwan, a self—governing territory off the chinese coast which could become a major flashpoint if president xi jinping of china decides to invade it. the capital, taipei, is orderly, gentle but a bit drab, but certainly not flashy like the big cities of the mainland. taiwan is where the nationalist forces ended up w

your presence here today shows the importance of china's global engagement and the critical role china plays in shaping our shared future at such an important and critical moment. your excellency, china has emerged over the last decades as a key player in addressing global challenges and its contributions to global economic development are undeniable. china's commitment to sustainable development and its ambitious goals for a green economy are impressive. your multiple initiatives have the potential to improve global trade and infrastructure, connect continents further and forestall economic woes, especially for the global south. vice premier, you've been a pivotal figure in china's political landscape, known for your strategic region and dedication to advancing china's modernization. with a career spanning several decades, you have played a crucial role in shaping policies that drive economic reform, technological innovations, and sustainable development. your leadership in various capacities, including as director of the c.c.p. channel office has been instrumental in fostering intern

it is fair to say with respect by peace and security china has the best track r record third, china'sonic supporter we firmly see you and at its core in the international order based on international law. chinese people always honor our common enemies and commitments. that's the first question. the possible consequences of the theworld splits into two differt systems. and how to do about it. i think if that is the case the consequences will be unimaginable if the world becomes divided. it would be very difficult for humanityty to address common challenges together and in a worst-case would possibly allow compensation. that would be a situation know can stay unaffected. president xi once said all countries in the world are like passengers inwe the same big shp we share the same future i need to act with stronger global solidarity to narrow down the division and avoid unimaginable consequences we should work together to bring to life t division of community with the sharedy document for mankind ad mentalities at that same time in this process, i think the role of major companies is very

is not the us against china. other countries need to protect their sectors against china. if you have tears coming on china from, from the you, from brazil, from countries in, in south east asia because of the same, i have a fair trade practices that china is using when it comes to electric vehicles. you also have concerns throughout the world, including the united states, but everywhere else about china is excess capacity that they're dumping into markets at this. hollowing out some, some of the industrial bases that, that you see in the us and you see elsewhere. so part of this is going to be use the world, you know, it is, you se, asia in parts japan, korea, what are they going to do visa v, china? and then how is china going to react? because if you see this, you know, china plus one this, this diversification of supply chain out of china because of the tariffs, the us has been putting out. it's not just the us and the japanese, and the your opinions that are diversifying out of china. it's the chinese who ar

helping to offset china tariff concerns following trump's reiteration. 10% china tariffs on all china imports still on the table. chinese stocks underperforming although i would note that this is following on from a couple of sessions of games. something where a breather was due. note that 10% is not quite as bad as the 60% that was floated previously. still, these declines in chinese stocks reflect how fragile sentiment is on the mainland and in hong kong. as i say, it's really and ai playthings to trump. -- play thanks to trump. double-digit surge to the highest level since july. some analysts have already put it as a green line from trump on all things ai. boosting not just the chipmakers but also data centers. cable makers. for a, among them in japan. also double-digit kleins -- climbs. you touched on this earlier. the boj on friday. i would just say when it comes to these tariff threats, it is showing up in the pressure on the renminbi and the yen. this is coming despite the expectations that the boj is good to go on friday. if you recall, when he gave his toughest -- dovish pres

pay, i write in seven things you can't say about china that china is an empire waging economic worldated our society our government the only way to stop it is to recognize seven things you can't say about china tries to ring alarm bell for every american about threat to communist china poses to our life there are things we can do right away i have legislation sponsored with marco rubio now continue to sponsor with others josh would take away china's most favored permanent most-favored-nation status make sure building military deters chinese greefgs in western pacific, imposing across the board swans, reshore critical manufacturing industrial production so not dependent on china for critical things, like rare effort elements basic pharmaceuticals all things that china has done to challenge, our global primacy we have to recognize the threat if we are going to beat that challenge back. maria: your book is incredibly important, thank you for the book. because, the public does need to understand the threat here would you support moving chinese stocks from american exchanges, sir? i mean

china security and review commission, it details china's efforts to deepen ties with countries across latin america and the caribbean. i would like you -- to ask unanimous consent to enter that into the record. without objection, ok. thank you, all right. i think it is important to view the chinese communist party's activities in the panama canal zone in the context of ccp's broader efforts. to further access latin american markets and obstruct american interests in our own backyard. would you agree with that? that you see the ccp activity and hopefully to interrupt america's interests in the region? chair sola: definitely, the economic interests, senator. sen. budd: i was able to travel there a few years ago to see this firsthand and see the ccp's encroachment. in your experience, are there noticeable differences in port operations when they are controlled by chinese companies and financed are backed by chinese loans? would you explain that? chair sola: we have a wonderful example because we have a u.s. port there, but i actually worked on the development of that many years ago. it u

i have been in and out of china _ president. i have been in and out of china for— president.t of china for 20 _ president. i have been in and out of china for 20 years - president. i have been in and out of china for 20 years and | out of china for 20 years and this is the topic this year, and especially into 2025, how chinese companies are dealing with and facing — thinking about the trump administration. right now at this stage, it is actually some surprise and positive i guess because some cautious optimism from the chinese companies. for one main reason, the first day in office he did not impose 60% of 100% tariffs on anything china related and it seems like the relationship with china at this stage might even be better than canada. the discussions about tariffs and trades. so, the discussions, as chinese companies look at what trump says, everyone is looking at every word, every sentence at this stage, and the other thing we are looking at is on february one, it looks like we might have some policy decisions related to china, so thatis decisions related to china, so that

this is where china is beating us. they understand, and i believe that our bank and dfc is so limited in what they can do by the restrictions that they have that we are not able to invest in infrastructure like we should. sen. young: i hope the administration will prioritize the ambassador spot as nominations are made. i hope that we will prioritize it in the senate. my colleagues on the democratic side of the aisle will be warm said that nomination moving it quickly. something that both parties frankly have fallen short on in recent years is prioritizing needs. other comments? comm. maffei: senator, you and i served together in the house that i am pretty bipartisan and i agree on the chairman with what he said. i will say that certainly, we need to look at other kinds of ways to get u.s. companies in positions where they truly compete with the chinese on some of these things. laming it all on panama misses the point. i have seen the same thing in greece where greece did not want to give the concession of its largest p

if there is 60% tariffs on china, yes, china will be affected.ariffs in china is not invested in china, period. that is why the market does not react to the news. secondly, 60% tariffs would destroy the u.s. economy. it is not going to happen. president trump knows. he was elected because people were upset about the inflation. he knows and his advisors know . scott bessent is a global macro guy. when was the last time we had one of her own is a treasury secretary? that's great. they understand there is very little room to maneuver in the u.s. 6% budget deficits. interest rates at 5%. the dollar at an all-time high. our view is u.s. assets have been the only place to be in the last 15 years. all the world's money is here. it is priced for exceptionalism. massively priced relative to the rest of the world. we want to say you can have that and we still have positions in the u.s. our focus for 2025-2026 is the u.s. led the way. now the rest of the world will catch up. the rest liberal trades at 13 times forward earnings. the u.s. trades at 22 times f

in china goods. but, but this actually makes it a lot more expensive to do things in china because the tariff is applied on a 100 percent of the value. but only a 3rd of it is actually from china, a vacation. many people are terrified by now. they are afraid to go to hotels like this behind me, major fluids and that they are now doubting the safety standards of the hotels. and of course, there are many institutions and people to be questions about. we know that present drugs up type gone the has living is about to arrive in bullets to, to where a funeral is being helped to show his solidarity with the people. i said him, i know that there's an investigation going on, do we know what they are looking at as well? and there are 6 persecutors involved in this investigation and they are trying to figure out what exactly caused the fire. what do you have been hearing about has been reported since yesterday, and the fire was broke, called inside the kitchen on the 4th floor. the 4th floor is actually the 1s

so this time china, she didn't think very much wanna focus on portraying china as a strong country, stood the country prepared for whatever trump for his assets. and to that end, we had presented to jim ping today would choose to speak with brussels, lead of his intention saying that the bathing must go upon the ship is very strong . that will not be impacted by whatever happens in the us and the aging. also in the months leading up to trump, d, a local agent has made this message clear that it wants to do with trump thoughts if it needs to. it will retaliate against us and us friends to you in beijing. katrina is thank you very much. indeed. joining us now is political economist of david mon live from beijing, so thank you very much indeed for being with us. what's your assessment of china's position when it comes to a trump administration? and there are some of them, the chinese administration who believes that trump will be transactional. i think the more realistic minds seeing that people call trump transactional as if he was a very successful businessman. when we know that he managed

and russia was in china is top 5, china is also i, by the way, if you didn't already know this, but i suspect you did try and it was the biggest consumer of russian energy. more details on that commentary. you're going up online at odd c dot com. and that's exactly why all of us stories continue online. and on a friday a lot from moscow. they've got to come in the the altima 2023, a surprise attack launched against israel by how much militaries show the world the no one had expected. the palestinian runs. it goes to have so many cutting edge weapons. in the aftermath of the attack militants open the unlucky rain for the rockets and missiles that rained down on these rays, this is the see the silver the device. how can it be that um the ship to the middle east from a country whose top officials constantly complain about shortages of munitions and military equipments anyway, blueprint, blueprint, bass stem at us and e u military, a totals tens of.

so i think the point here is that there is a realization that today's china is certainly not the china of 8 years ago and must be dealt with accordingly. i think what's highly symbolic is president trump invitation of presidency to the inauguration. he's still threatening paris. what does donald trump wants to get out of china with this threat of terrace? well, he's certainly this would have an important impact on chinese businesses. if tariffs are escalated, but the way what i've heard, according to president trump is that terrorists are seen as a general tool to secure the prosperity of the american people. as he said in several of his speeches of the past couple of days, he wants to create a department of x terminal revenue, not an internal revenue to correct to come to collect money from terrace. but the question remains, what does he want to get out of china if he is threatening china with terrorist it is to get what? well, i see this as actually creating opportunity for china, because at the same time he does want to raise terrace for the benefit of the american people. but he al

trump: if china did not approve it, we could put tariffs on china. don't forget, we charge them very little -- except for what i did, i put hundreds of billions of dollars until. . i came along, china never paid $.10 to this country. they ripped us off and they never paid anything. if we wanted to make a deal with tiktok and china wouldn't approve it, then i think ultimately they would approve it because we would put tariffs on china. it may be. i am not saying i would, but i certainly could do that. if we said oh, you are not going to approve it, we will put tariffs of 25%, 30%, 40%, 50% even 100%. if we did that, i think they would approve it. reporter: you have seen the other living presidents a couple of times in the last few months, if you had to call on anyone of them for advice, which one would you call? pres. trump: i thought bill clinton was a very good politician. i don't think he was used properly. i think they disrespected him. when hillary was running, he came back and said, you better get up to michigan and wisconsin -- you remember tha

china are applied against china are applied a 10% but if higher, i think china will say there is noaliation, let's do something now.- let's do something now. china is seen by _ let's do something now. china is seen by the _ let's do something now. china is seen by the us _ let's do something now. china is seen by the us as _ let's do something now. china is seen by the us as its - is seen by the us as its advisory, but countries like mexico in the firing line. how will they see the tariffs unfolding with what they see trump wanting to implement? they are being accused of allowing too much immigration and too much fentanyl, neither of which seems to be an issue for canada, so here you have been a long—standing best friend, deeply integrated 3—way markets and now you will be hit with a 25% are first and that feels i think deeply alarming and unsettling for canada, mexico, otherallies and unsettling for canada, mexico, other allies of the us, so if you are hitting at the series and allies, what does that mean?— that mean? the date of the first of february _ that mean? the date of the f

you mentioned china for example. the german automotive industry sells hundreds more cars in china. the open market guarantees for prosperity and technical development. i think it should also be part of the talks we will have with the government to have this question. how can we have the greatest impact from both sides of the atlantic and with all partnerships we have right now. a lot of american companies are producing in germany and vice versa. that is the best international trade. >> the trade group hoping to have discussions with the trump administration. thank you for joining us. >>> we stay on the topic of manufacturing and ariffs. our eunice yoon visiting one export center to look at how chinese factories are preparing for tariffs. >> reporter: hoping to beat trump's tariffs, furnish after seller harley lee is doubling the products to the u.s. and storing them in warehouses there. four of five tables and other furnishings are sold to american consumers. we expect to stole piling will force to raise prices as much as 10% even before the tariffs. i have to ship them in advance

if it's coming from the us, so have the us buys are coming from china, the china bias, and you're gonna see that with other countries, specific types of models that are out there. um, every country is gonna want to put their cultural constraint there as well as responsible a i constraints because everybody has a different view of this. and so we're almost at this point where, when we were in biotech and we're doing biotech research like what kind of genetic research is, okay, what is humanity, okay with and then we're going to see other bodies come into place trying to regulate for a i as at that point in time, but right now that's it's the canary islands of a i it's free for all, especially in terms of trying to figure out how to get through the advancements as quickly as possible. and then of course, society typically through wheels and all those different areas through regulation over time. so we're going to see that and we'll see that curve just like we did with the internet and told me, is that free for all good for the technology right now? well, i mean, a fundamental question is,

something like that in china.erican businessman like elon musk or frank mccourt acquire the thing. >> i said i'd be very interested in participating i think the existing investors would most likely want to say and in the new investor can commit as well, the technology can be rebuilt. >> of course the question remains right now will xi jinping allow by dance to selloff tiktok in any way shape or form. >> it is valuable, the evaluation is pretty significant, your thoughts. >> wall street is good be very receptive to china not having algorithm i don't think we can tolerate it, politically and geopolitically china lies about everything we were worried about tiktok. if we do this deal together 50% at the grip of 30% upside on that stock. maria: i'm not backing away from the questions on china surveillance, i thought president trump would make a good point when he said were talking about tiktok, what about phones and all the other products and cars whatever they're talking about, they made in china there could be. >> th

we have our telephones made in china, for the most part. so many things made in china. so why don't they mention that? you are dealing with a lot of young people. is it that important for china to be spying on young people, young kids watching crazy videos? >> i don't want china spying on anybody. pres. trump: but they make your telephones and computers and a lot of other things. isn't that a bigger threat? tom: president trump speaking to fox news in the oval office. you follow the twists and turns of the tiktok saga in detail. >> i will start with the last one he made, they being china are spying on your conversations, that was the argument around pulling the huawei infrastructure out of the united states and a lot of western countries. that is the parallel donald trump is making. it is not the only tech company coming out of china that has that perceived impact on the rest of the world. tiktok is interesting because in addition to talking about the ban and spying ability, we are still talking about who the buyer may be, an this is the first time in recent history whe

how do you think china, for one, will respond? i do you think china, for one, will respond?pond? i think the chinese _ will respond? i think the chinese might _ will respond? i think the chinese might be - will respond? i think the chinese might be a - will respond? i think the chinese might be a bit i will respond? i think the - chinese might be a bit muted at the first instance, especially if the tariffs that are applied against china remain at about 10%, if they go higher than that i think china will say there is no point in us even pausing on any potential retaliation, let's do something and do it now.— retaliation, let's do something and do it now. china is seen by the us as _ and do it now. china is seen by the us as it — and do it now. china is seen by the us as it adversary, - and do it now. china is seen by the us as it adversary, but - and do it now. china is seen by the us as it adversary, but as i the us as it adversary, but as partners are neighbours like mexico and canada are also in the firing line here, how will they be seeing these tariffs unfolding before t

and china. >> i think there's suspicion on both sides. china is such a unique place. from the iconic sights of beijing. >> a city. >> i called home for a few years. >> the great wall. >> pretty cool huh? >> to the majestic sichuan mountains. this place is special. and so to the people. >> and i think, you know, to be back and to be able to tell. >> a story on. >> a creature. that brings some sense of positivity. >> pandas quite nice. but before. >> we see the creatures themselves, we want to just see how large they loom around their home town of all things, you. wouldn't need to advertise here in chengdu. it'd be. >> the giant panda. headbands. >> there are. >> so many shops just like this. panda themed cigarettes. >> you've got. panda books, panda keychains, panda pens. >> even starbucks has caved to the panda theme. you struggle to find a storefront that doesn't have pandas. >> we've been most surprised. >> to see just how many panda loyalists there are. but that's chengdu. i mean, basically, it's known for a few things spicy food, hot pot, and pandas. we're going t

of china, and playing time one is part of china.i think the american taxpayer would agree that we should not be subsidizing the salaries of people who undermine american satellites. can we talk specifically about how we counter china's influence in the u.n., specifically assuring that taiwan gets fair treatment, as it comes to china? and there's a lot of organizations that taiwan can. . belong to you i would love to hear your thoughts on that. rep. stefanik: yes, thank you so much. it is great to see you on the side of the capital now, senator curtis. you and i worked on the issue of setting up a china task force, and as i mentioned in some of the previous questions, i'm committed to make sure taiwan has the most maximum, meaningful participation within the u.s. system, as it should in all international organizations. we have to be vigilant, both in the long term and the short term, to make sure that china is not able to make significant inroads with the ccp and international organizations. i want to point out i have a record on thi

china. they say it was american consumers who will pay for these cars. however, it is also clear that this will hom, china's economy, which is still struggling to recover from 1910 demik to roads has slowed traditional drivers of growth, such as a housing market in prices. and the aging says it wants to shift away from its manufacturing model. it's still very much relies on the export market. so you us tire of a bad news and they're also bad news for sentiment. consumer and business companies in china at the moment is at alert. you carrots are certainly not going to help. katrina you out. a 0 agent. donald trump is declared that emergency at the southern border was mexico. i says he plans to deport millions of undocumented migrants. is on clear how the shifting immigration policy will affect undocumented monuments granted special protection on to the by the ministration. christmas aluminum reports from boston, massachusetts. at the immigrant family services institute in boston, williams and

china's money. but they are small. they're investment levels are much smaller than ours. and capitalism. is protects private ownership, property, business and personal wealth western governments control legal and police mechanisms that, ensure wealth remains privately owned, and allows the rich to amass even greater wealth. titans. this book refers to the individuals individuals who serve on the board of directors of the ten largest capital management companies in the world. these directors control, i said $50 trillion. the concept of titans comes, of course, from the from the family of greek. greek mythology, your gods. but merriam-webster's dictionary defines titan as one that is gigantic in or power and that stands out for greatness and achievement. so under capitalism, privately wealth is admired and protected by governmental intelligence agencies and the military power as a vital interest of the empire. i believe that this is very fitting then to apply the term titans to, these these individual
