this is against xi jingping and the communist party. will see eventually, let's say within a couple of years is that the party will fail. largely because the chinese people don't want it there anymore. >> todd: and participation of that what will xi jingping and the ccp do in response to the protest? >> we know we are ready people's daily which is the most authoritative publication in china and double down on zero covid cova policies. these are the things that trigger the protest on friday right after the fatal fire thursday. and so, people have initially talked about the covid rules, which, of course we have seen so much discontent over them this year. but the communist party is doubling down, which means this is a confrontation and will not go away. >> carley: hey, you made a pretty big prediction saying in a few years, xi jingping's party will fail. and no surprise to him because essentially said that he is president for life. what should we be looking out for to see possibly in the future if that could happen? why do you make that p

hundreds are even calling out xi by name, saying step down, xi jingping. it is a big day, and this could have broad consequences. joining me now from london is nbc's raf sanchez. raf, janis mackey frayer has been covering beijing and she is showing us some of the protests there. talk to us about what has led to what we are seeing today. >> so, the immediate spark was a fire in the city all the way in the northwest of china last week and the fire was in an apartment building, it killed ten people, seven adults, three children, but what led to this anger was video on social media that appeared to show fire crews unable to get to the blaze and save these people's lives because of the covid restrictions that were in place. but as you said, that's just the spark. the kindling is three years of mounting frustration over this seemingly never-ending lockdown. if you live in china right now, you feel the impacts of this zero covid policy every single day. i was speaking to some of our colleagues in the beijing bureau, you want to get on the subway and go to work, y

and i think that xi jingping...f circumstances where on issues that were... we had to further resolve details, we agreed we would have our chief of staff, the appropriate cabinet members and others, sit and meet with one another to discuss the details of every issue that was raised and we raised a lot of issues. associated press. you met with xi jingping face—to—face after he had consolidated his power at home, so now you _ consolidated his power at home, so now you have met with him face—to—face, how do you assess his sort of— face—to—face, how do you assess his sort of posture towards the united states _ sort of posture towards the united states and did you find him personally to be more confrontational or more conciliatory and willing — confrontational or more conciliatory and willing to compromise? neither and willing to compromise? neither and es. and willing to compromise? neither and yes- yes. _ and willing to compromise? neither and yes- yes. i _ and willing to compromise? neither and yes. yes, i did _ and w

let's not forget there is a balance that xi jingping is trying to strike here.ng up against two problems. one is the human rights challenge created by the zero covid policy. the other issue we can't forget about is the economy. the economy in china is currently in a situation that is very precarious. the continuous of the covid policy is significant pressure where you see lots of people running out of jobs, lots of people running out of opportunities and that is adding to and fueling this discontent that people are experiencing with xi jingping. so too trans to continue to watch as we see the protests continue to grow throughout china. >> steve: here, lanhee you perfectly set this up and impacting americans where people over there with the strict lockdown if there is an outbreak, they will shut that down. we still are one of their biggest supply chain trading partners. and so, if it is paralyzing the people for they are, it will impact us over here because even though we set for the last couple of years we have to stop relying on china, we still rely on china. >

all of this as xi jingping has consolidated his grip on power. conference earlier today, the president was asked if a new old war -- or i should say a new cold war could be avoided with china. >> to answer the first part of your question, i absolutely believe there need not be a new cold war. i met many times with xi jingping and we were clear with one another across the board. i do not think there's any imminent attempt on the part of china to invade taiwan and i made it clear that our policy in taiwan has not changed at all. >> joining us now from beijing, janis mackey frayer, also with us is peter baker, "new york times" chief white house correspondent. janice, what more can you tell us about this meeting. it was on for more than three hours? >> reporter: they did high stakes with this meeting. the two men know each other well. they've talked on the phone before. but it was this face-to-face meeting with all of these thorny issues that they needed to discuss, things like trade, chips, the economy, taiwan, human rights, russia, the list goes on

with an audacity that is certainly unprecedented in the ten years that the chinese president xi jingpingeen in office, and some people will tell you, really unlike anything we have seen in china since 1989, and the tiananmen square protest, just to give you a sense of the scale, these protests started last week, in a little city all the way in the northwest of china and there was a fire in an apartment building there, and videos on social media, basically show fire crews unable to reach the scene in time to save the lives of ten people who died in that fire, seven adults and three kids. and basically, there was a furious reaction that seems that these covid restrictions stopped the fire crew from getting there, and over the weekend, we've seen these protests spread all the way across china, right into the center of beijing, right into the center of shanghai, and it is there in shanghai that we have been hearing these unbelievably daring calls from protesters calling outright for the fall of the chinese come nifrt party and for the fall of xi jingping. now the spark was the fire and the k

xi jingping was like, you can have that one. i just want you to stop talking.let's move on to some of the bigger stories of the day, starting with the midterms. that magical time of the year where the most exciting thing on tv is steve kornacki doing math. now votes are still being counted across the country, but a few things are clear: one, you can take off your "i voted" sticker now, we get it. and two: senate democrats are about to get two more years in the driver's seat. >> let's begin with democrats shocking the political world by retaining control of the united states senate thanks to a win overnight in nevada. >> democrats now taking a victory lap, defying history and expectations, on track to their best midterm performance since john f. kennedy was president. >> this is a very happy day. >> with at least 50 seats and vice president kamala harris's tie-breaking vote, democrats now keep control of the upper chamber, regardless of the outcome of georgia's senate runoff slated for december 6th. holding the senate gives president biden and his party control

the boldest public challenge yet for leader xi jingping.or him to step down. a move almost unheard of in china. they did it for everybody, says this woman in beijing. the national outcry triggered by a deadly fire that took hours to put out. the delay widely blamed on covid measures there where lockdowns have confined most people for months. videos showing candlelight vigils and shows of frustration. unblock, they yelled, while knocking down barriers. china's government has tied tweaking rules, but they're bearing down again. quelling the unrest a challenge for the communist party with no exit from zero covid in sight. so far the leadership in state media have stayed silent about the protests and officials at the foreign ministry didn't directly address the growing anger with zero covid. tonight, we're getting reports in multiple cities of much heavier police presence and cracking down on anyone who is trying to protest. alex? >> thank you for that rather stunning update. appreciate that. >>> ukraine's president is warning of the potential

xi jingping will be there, most probably. probably not putin. jingping a kind of victory lap after his effectively coronation as china's party leader for another five years at the party congress last month. he'll be meeting with germans and other foreign leaders. the u.s. had been planning to try to engage xi. there's an expectation of a meeting, face to face, between xi and president biden at the summit and an agenda for the u.s. to try to find a way to engage this newly powerful xi on issues of joint concern. in the past, dealing with north korea's provocations has been one of the issues on which the u.s. and china cooperated. as relations have deteriorated, that cooperation has ended. i'm sure there will be a question this week, right now, can we get china part of a coalition to restrain xi before he tests a nuclear weapon? that would be a much more significant escalation of this crisis. >> and, david, i want to turn your attention to iran. a u.s. official tells nbc news the u.s. estimates about 280 people have been killed in the recent prote

>> let's start by observing that last week was a big week for xi jingping.table at the 20th party congress and consolidated control over china, in a manner unlike anything we've seen since now and then. so he was coming in, in this meeting, a man in full. fortunately, from the president's perspective, he had a very good week as well. continuing to control the senate, house still too close to call, and real strength in the wings of democracy, i would say. so very, very important atmospherecally for the president. could not have landed at a better team. and so they really were meeting as equals of the two largest economies and the two most important countries in the world. >> so kelly brought up the fact that they talked about taiwan specifically, and biden's support for a one china policy, but i actually was reading the ministry of foreign affairs statement about the meeting afterwards. and which essentially they said, listen, we can both grow, this is paraphrasing here, we can both pursue the things that we want. however, we do not involve ourselves in u.s.

. >> todd: i think you are right in a sense xi jingping said people are protesting so let's resign.l china end up lifting draconian lockdown's as a result of the protests? >> they have started to do that a little bit. but let's face it the chinese people are saying what happened with the wake-up of hundreds of thousands of people meeting without any masks. in the meantime these people are dying in a fire because of being locked in their apartments with no way to get out of the building. so, that is obviously going to create tensions. the chinese people are tired of this regime that is really controlling their entire lives and giving them no ability to succeed. despite apple ceo continuing otherwise. >> todd: is joe biden actually hurting the power of these protesters by not coming out more forcefully in support of them? >> absolutely. it is a very tremendous lack of leadership, again, that is the opportunity for the united states to give a chance to the chinese people to fight back from the communist party. this happened in 1977, 1989 and not something you can do and see every day b

the people of china are sick and tired of it and it's not going to work for xi jingping to simply try to find a middle path between the kind of absolutist crackdowns that have been used and slowly easing these covid-19 restrictions and getting a working vaccine. they really don't have a chinese-produced one. a lot of work ahead. i see unrest, but i'll close with this, jose, i don't think this is going to rise to the level of regime change or throwing out xi jingping. china as too many tools and they'll use them to avoid that. >> and those tools can sometimes be completely terror. embassy staff in moscow are trying to find out what happened to paul whelan after his family says he didn't call them on thanksgiving. secretary blinken told anderson mitchell the last time a u.s. official talked to paul whelan was two weeks ago. is this unusual? >> it's unusual when the detainee is in a system within a nation like russia with whom we have many, many disagreements. but we do have paths of diplomacy. we do have contact. we have an embassy. so, yes, i think it's unusual. we ought to be pressing

that the historic meeting of president joseph biden with the leader of china took place, all in jingping. well, we are most interested in how this can affect russian aggression. will xi jinping now be ready to play more with the united states , so because when they are talking about a bipolar world, this does not involve the third player of the russian federation, it is possible now that sisinpin, after talking with president joseph biden, will be ready to work more actively in this situation let's just need everything i think that it should definitely be g19 russia in no way deserves to be a member of this group, therefore it must be excluded under the scenario of expulsion from the g8 based on my understanding of what was discussed by all the dolphins president biden of course their mutual opposition to russia's war against ukraine was a key point not only sin-zin-pin, but also on rent-ramoda, the leader of india made it clear in recent months that they do not consider it acceptable that russia resorts to nuclear threats and in the g20 communique. it was really interesting to me that a

i have communicated with xi jingping many times, or we are in the yard openly and frankly. is planning to take over taiwan anytime soon and our policy towards taiwan has not changed. this is the same position that we have taken for many years. we we believe that all disagreements can be resolved peacefully , and we think that dmitry a. do you share biden's optimism about preventing a cold war and do you agree that the united states is really interested in stabilizing relations with china. after all, it was the united states that unleashed this confrontation this year, it was the united states that escalated all kinds of confrontation. one can recall the visit to nancy palace. e in taiwan well, how does the theory of international relations teach, how weakening in this in this case, it is the united states that is interested in aggravating the conflict, and not china, who believe that time is on its side . firstly, dmitry's magical question is very logical, but on the other hand. you must understand that ukraine has become in american politics and not just an important inter

president biden has met with china's leader xi jingping for the first time since taking office.elines of the g20 summit in bali. china's claims to taiwan were discussed and remain a point of friction. but the two men also agreed to strengthen cooperation on global issues such as climate change. let's speak to barbara plett usher — who's in washington for us. how significant was the meeting today? this meeting was significant because it happened, not because it was achieved. the two men know each other quite well because they spent a lot of time together when they were vice presidents, but in what has changed since then, and this was their first has changed since then, and this was theirfirst in—person has changed since then, and this was their first in—person meeting since taking charge of their countries, with relations at an all—time low, some even talking about a new cold war situation. some even talking about a new cold warsituation. present some even talking about a new cold war situation. present biden was looking for blunt talk, and it looks as though they got that. they

ever since the coronavirus originated in one of china's main cities, xi jingping has doing everythingid of covid. after three years of strict lockdowns, it looks like the chinese people have officially had enough. >> protests are spreading across that country. thousands are taking to the streets, some even calling for china's president to step down, all of this amid rising frustration over the government's zero covid strategy. >> crowds swelled in defiance, spilling over to the heart of beijing. >> freedom! >> we want to be free. >> chanting for freedom from the grip of the covid policy that protesters say has worn on too long. >> they are calling for the end of lockdowns, the end of testing, all of the zero covid measures that have ruled daily life here. >> trevor: that's right, people in china are taking to the streets to protest the government's draconian covid policies which is a big deal. because remember, china is not one of those chill countries. you can talk trash about the government or storm the capitol or plot to kidnap a governor, no, no, no, protesting in china is a big d

if you have a million deaths on your match, that's a legacy issue for xi jingping and for the party.e bit to call a reopening to anticipate this reopening which is always just a day away but it's very unlikely we're moving in that direction despite the fact the party is going to have to be responsive in some ways talking up a timeline for reopening or, you know, an easing of measures but the idea that protests are going to flip this, i think it's very, very unlikely. >> leland, you mentioned a million deaths that sounds like an incredibly low figure we had a million deaths and we've gotten maybe a fifth of the population size that they have we have a better medical systems and better vaccines. >> the death numbers that i've heard have been a lot higher than that. when i try to present this, i try to preserve the most conservative figure to say even if the numbers are what we're hearing from all the expert, instead of talking about 3 million or 4 million, you're talking about 1 million or 800,000, these are politically unacceptable number for xi jingping who spent the last three years
