but this has totally, this hope has vanished under xi jinping, xi jinping has turned even the communist party into a one person leadership and this is a huge difference despite all the democratic problems india has but this is a huge difference from india and it's not the only problem. there certainly is talk of a chinese downfall, china had shown the world how it is able to achieve record after record and economic performance. but those times seem long gone and problems are taking over highly qualified but jobless the case for one in five people under the age of 24 living in china. the record figure was published last spring. authorities have since suspended release of the monthly statistics claiming they want to optimize the methodology. many chinese have lost their lust for consumption all they can do is look on as the homes they saved up for aren't completed. property developers are getting into financial difficulties. the largest chinese property group ever grand they saved up for aren't completed. property developers are getting has the highest debt worldwide and over $300 billion

as for wh , this jinping not coming today. as for why, this dispute. _ jinping not coming today.e. does - jinping not coming today. as for i why, this dispute. does something jinping not coming today. as for - why, this dispute. does something to do with that, — why, this dispute. does something to do with that, three _ why, this dispute. does something to do with that, three years _ why, this dispute. does something to do with that, three years ago, - do with that, three years ago, chinese groups suddenly when evening arrived on the line of action on the boundary between the two and we do not know why they are here and not just scare coming across the line of action control and position themselves in indian territory and they're not saying that this is ours and are not saying anything, they're just there and they're not allowing indian soldiers to patrol those parts which they're able to do two years ago. and so, if at 19 rounds of talks between the indian and the chinese people and on both sides, and india committee of officials but there is no solution and i think the chinese

xi jinping's role model is mao. mao's famous saying around the korean war is one punch saves 100 punches. he was talking about a preemptive attack on the americans and the korean war. that is the outcome we cannot have here. let's be very clear. if we go to conflict over taiwan, there is a nontrivial chance of a preemptive attack on american interests or targets by the ccp. it is not like this would be over there. it could be right on our doorsteps. it could be our american servicemen and women that would be attacked, or it could be an attack on our critical infrastructure in america as a brush back pitch to keep us out of the conflict over taiwan. there is severe potential for miscalculation. he does not get it, i respectfully submit. that is in part why i so strongly support the diplomatic outreach right now. they do not understand americans would not ignore an attack on our interests or people. we would fight. and it would be catastrophic. we cannot go there. that is why, in response to your question, i absolutel

it seems to me that xi jinping is preparing for war. and that may seem absurd to this audience and i may seem like unsophisticated group from the midwest for saying that, but we tend to underestimate the probability of these things. roger forced me to teach a class on the korean war last month, and it was a really rewarding experience. ipic about the time we were in, we had just one world war ii, massive victory, it economy was going gangbusters, the sentiment was bring the boys home, all of a sudden we had to deal with this new threat in the form of the soviet union. because of diplomatic missteps, because we decimated our own military and civilian nightstick, we stumbled into a conflict on the korean peninsula for which we were not prepared and we lost 36,000 americans in a war that was largely forgotten. that is a bad outcome we should seek to avoid something similar from happening in the present day. the reason i have this on my mind is because there's a cult of the korean war right now in china. xi jinping talks about it. chinese s

i think xi jinping's _ going ahead? i think xi jinping's absence i going ahead? going ahead? i think xi - jinping's absence was a missed opportunity for china and allowed india to have a more successful summit and also positioned president biden more centrally so i think it wasn't good for china that he didn't come at many other of china's somatic initiatives like the brinks enlargement show china is pushing ahead with its plan and that was for baiting. fist and that was for baiting. at the 620 summit us presidentjoe biden luh to vietnam for the final destination of his big asia tour. the visit focused on deepening relations especially as a trade row between the us and china shows no signs of abating. vietnam has also become an opportunity for investors as some businesses have moved their supply chains away from china and india countries like vietnam. venture capital firm five global says the outcome of the trip means america sees vietnam as a economic partner.- economic partner. not surprising _ economic partner. not surprising given i economic partner. not| surp

how important is it for xi jinping to come to america in november? >> well, it is important to the order of things, if you will, the stability of things, that we keep open lines of communication. >> you were in the same room with china's number two today -- >> yes. and i have -- i have met with president xi as well. >> did you talk to him today? >> well, we exchanged pleasantries, yes. >> but it's still a little tense? >> i don't think it's as simple, if you will, as whether there's tension. yes, there's tension. when you are in a competition of any sort, but that does not mean that a we are seeking conflict. >> right. >> and i think it's important to not conflate the two. do we have disagreements, for example, very serious disagreements about what's happening in the south china sea? yes. we're very clear about that. one could argue there's tension there. you look, for example, at trade, 99% of our trade is not influenced by what we are doing in terms of the restrictions on exports. >> so you want xi jinping to come in november? >> i think he is abso

an opportunity for xi jinping. an opportunity for xi jinping. an opportunity for xi jinping.pportunity for xijinping. an opportunity forjoe biden to showcase america's successes and continue to weave partnerships and friendships, trying to establish that we need to have a rules —based order, government indo pacific region, otherwise in other places in the world and that will be to everyone's benefit. congressman, finally, one question on a domestic matter, you will be back at the house of representatives next week, a big task ahead in terms of trying to agree funding by the end of the month. do you think a deal can get done or are you expecting a government shutdown?— expecting a government shutdown? ., ., ., shutdown? we cannot have a government _ shutdown? we cannot have a government shutdown. - shutdown? we cannot have a government shutdown. that | shutdown? we cannot have a i government shutdown. that will hurt millions of people, whether it is active duty military not getting paid or seniors having trouble accessing health with their social security benefits. ultimately,

cooperation with india and other countries in the region, with xi jinping missing. is an opportunity for biden to step into that nbn architect on what the world looks like coming together in the next few years. >> if we look at india specifically, in addition to reports of ongoing human rights abuses we have seen in recent days and weeks the clearing of slums in new delhi, the building of walls to hide camps ahead of the world leaders, the world's media descending on india. how should joe biden address that? >> many of us talked about that when mr. modi visited the united states in june for the white house state dinner and for the very important and breathtaking deliverables announced back then. that is certainly a key issue to the united states into the world. india being the largest democracy in the world, how did they embrace their diversity? how did they embrace the goals of their constipation -- the goals of their constitution and we the people. america treating everybody equally. now they are growing at 7% per year, they have grown to be the third or fourth la

president xi jinping is planning to skip it. get to our government reporter in new delhi itself. we don't know for sure, but what do we know? >> well, i mean, there are a couple of things that we know. president biden, sunak, kishida, saudi arabia have confirmed they will be here for the g20. there is commission from china, that is a cause of concern. you know, the chinese do not confirm the visit of the president xi jinping very early on for security reasons, but nonetheless, you know, it is a cause of concern and the indications we are getting is that it is all up in the air. government officials who we spoke to kind of said that there is no clarity whether the president will be here. while tensions within the room so to say keep increasing. so we will have to keep on wait and watch for whether xi jinping ends up in india for the g20. if he does not, it means a big deal. haslinda: what does it mean for prime minister modi? >> well, i mean, it is a message at several levels. in the sense that china and india, they both have a b

xi jinping, he didn't say this, but effectively he was giving the message that xi jinping was closingus about his comments about china is really signaling to the business community there that they've got to get out of the country and vietnam is one of the places where businesses will migrate to if they want to stay in asia. we're seeing a boom in mexico because of this and this is going to change supply chains because china is falling apart sh.cheryl: we appreciate you bg here. we look forward to getting into the new book with you and all of the research you have done when it comes to the united states and its relationship with china. gordon, thank you very much. >> thank you, cheryl. cheryl: all right. want to turn your attention to the live pictures you're seeing on your screen, you're looking at live pictures of the pentagon. we're waiting on the flag unfurling ceremony that is underway right now. that's going to be happening in just a few moments and this is timed with the sunrise over washington, d.c., liz and this is where our moments of remembrance begin, liz, this morning at t

president biden is already on his way but xi jinping and vladimir putin will not attend. let's get more from haslinda amin who joins us live from new delhi. what is on the agenda? they're pretty big implications from the absence of these key figures, primarily xi jinping. haslinda: that's right. good morning by the way from new delhi. 3:30 here in the capital of india. this is an economic forum made complicated by geopolitics. huge issues on the agenda. we have climate change, surging debt, reforms of multilevel development banks like the world bank. the issue is coming to a consensus, and that is increasingly becoming impossible. we talk about china. china at odds with the u.s. across a multiple of issues, at odds with japan over nuclear waste water, at odds with india over that disputed border territory. it is not just about china, it is also about emerging markets, taking issue with rich nations within the g20. they say they are not getting the help needed for their renewables for their transition to clean energy. remember that the rich nations committed $100 billion t

and xi jinping's smart.id in ukraine, they infiltrated, they migrated military age guys, settled in ukraine. those were the saboteur's when he invaded. there's no way they're not there for us when they try to defend taiwan. there's someone in the group that's prepared. we're getting our military bases overwhelmed. maria: sow think this is all planned, that xi jinping is directing these military aged people to come into america and settle here and be saboteurs when he's ready? >> we have to suspect that. i mean, maria, we have to suspect that and anyone who doesn't is just -- maria: gordon, what are your thoughts on this? it is largely military aged men coming through, according to the border sources we've spoken with. >> yes. you know, we've seen a failure in china which is the reason why there are chinese migrants in the united states and elsewhere but in that group are saboteurs. there are packs of chinese males of 5 to 15 of military age traveling without family members, and pretending not to speak englis

money , and money is a one-way project, well, in general, around the world, but now, actually, xi jinping to rally his like-minded people, to rally non-democracy, by continuing this program. and those countries that hesitate to turn into autocratic, and now for the tenth anniversary of this program and for the third forum, because they held it twice before, then postponed it due to the pandemic, he is calling his friends, the main guest, of course, is to be putin, vucic is also expected there, and serbsky, the president of argentina , well, they claim that there will be 110 countries, let's see how many there will be in reality, but the story is not very good, because it is primarily about how to resuscitate russia... the international arena, give it more platforms to negotiate with non-democratic states, or in general those who are hesitating or supporting china, and it is precisely this emphasis that the belt and road has already become, has become part of, one family with the project of the eurasian economic union, where ukraine, let me remind you, yanukovych tried to encroach 10 years

xi jinping has not travelled abroad very much.20 in india, he will not go to the un general assembly this month. that is raise questions about what is going on with xijinping. raise questions about what is going on with xi jinping._ raise questions about what is going on with xi jinping. there has been a lot of focus — on with xi jinping. there has been a lot of focus with _ on with xi jinping. there has been a lot of focus with kim _ on with xi jinping. there has been a lot of focus with kim jong-un - lot of focus with kim jong—un visiting russia and what he might have got out of that meeting and the changing kind of relationship that there might be between north korea, pyongyang and moscow. 0ur worrying is that with the chinese? i pyongyang and moscow. our worrying is that with the chinese?— is that with the chinese? i think that really _ is that with the chinese? i think that really caught _ is that with the chinese? i think that really caught china - is that with the chinese? i think that really caught china off - is that with

that would be the first time that xi jinping advised and would meet face-to-face since early novemberli in the g20. it is dÉjÀ vu right now in the lead up to a potential summit or meeting between the two presidents. there was goodwill built from that g20 meeting in bali, but that could be derailed because of geopolitical tensions and the spy balloon incident. this is what antony blinken had to say from his position there in new york to hunt down the vice president of china. >> from the perspective of the united states, face-to-face diplomacy is the best way to deal with areas where we disagree and cooperation between us. the world expects us to responsibly manage our relationship and the united states is committed to doing this task -- just that. >> nobody seems to be blaming the other one for causing the differences and the wrist in their relationship over the last several years, this one being very commonplace. china-u.s. relations face a lot of difficulties and challenges, he says, and he says that it needs us both to display more sincerity at efforts and meet each other halfway. t

that is possible but it also could be xi jinping is not in travel mode.alf of xi jinping threatened the chinese leader would not come to the united states for the apex summit in november and xi jinping is not in jakarta at the meeting that he might have attended in different circumstances. this may be xi xinping feeling he should not leave china had a particularly dangerous time. he is under a lot of criticism. ashley: i wasn't aware he was so concerned he would cancel his traveling, isn't it a dangerous period? >> he is at some risk. i don't know if this is the reason for him not traveling but his policies are being criticized. in the august summit there are reports coming out xi jinping was subject to criticism for going too far in his policies. we heard some interesting rumors about the former foreign minister, people are now saying he was not only sidelined but executed. i don't believe those rumors that they have been circulating in china. they are senior commonest party leaders who undermine xi jinping, especially the economy. he has been taking a l

glory to ukraine, glory to the heroes, well , this possible visit of xi jinping seems quite unexpected, especially considering the tension in these relations between washington and beijing. right at this stage, yes, do you still think xi jinping will decide to come to the united states, well, i think the problem is for him to come himself, he has no fear that something will be done to him, this is not putin's issue, so that although the chinese regime is also, we know, accused of and acts against humanity, crimes, even genocide against the uygh. in the same xinjiang, the suppression of rebellions there in hong kong, but it does not carry out open aggression, open aggression against neighboring countries at the moment, and is quite a strong state, economically strong, politically, so i am now not such a threat of a personal security issue, regarding xi jinping's visit which western country , here is a question of status and a question of readiness for a direct conversation, because such conversations rarely take place once every few years, which, as qualitative conversations, in princip

>> xi jinping and china, they have come to get a situation. xi jinping wants to show has good relationship with putin, with kim jong-un but she doesn't want to develop the relations with both countries because of the images. but china really wants to improve relationship with the united states. and he wants to take advantage of this apec meeting in november if he joined this meeting and he really wants the biden, he wants to relax or that some sections to china. xi jinping doesn't find the kind of possibility, that's why he wants to make negotiation with that states that i'm going to go or not. but he knows united states really wants to invite him to come to apec, but xi jinping wants to make a deal with united states. if i go there then you have to relax your sanctions to us. without that kind of present i cannot participate. that is what he wants to show an g20 meeting he didn't go there. one of the case he wants to show to the united states, i really cannot go. so i think there is against their plane between the united states and china. >>

we will be live to assess the impact of xi jinping's. when it comes to getting your flu shot, cvs is pretty... flex. wanna schedule one online while prepping dinner? gravy. avoid the wait by scheduling for you... ...or the whole crew. or if you prefer to just pop in? do you. and if you wanna even tack on a covid-19 vaccine to your flu shot, feel free! and speaking of free? our flu shots are... well... free. really? yes, really. healthier is getting a flu shot on your schedule. cvs. healthier happens together. when you automate sales tax with avalara, you don't have to worry about things like changing tax rates, exemption certificates or filing returns. avalarahhh ahhh ahhh ahhh haidi: final preparations are underway in new delhi as india gets ready to host this weekend's g20 summit. president biden is on his way but china's xi jinping and russia's vladimir putin will not be attending. let's get more from haslinda almond joins us live from new delhi. what's on the agenda, some pretty big absences there. haslinda: that's right, in fact, in

xi jinping's top officials keep disappearing.t xi's former foreign minister was purged for having an affair and an american love child, apparently. hasn't been seen or heard from in 88 days. it comes as "reuters" reports that china's defense minister who is also missing is under investigation and may have been purged too. will ripley is "outfront." >> reporter: away from the great halls, glaring lights in the shadows of xi jinping's china, a silent storm is brewing. trouble at the top of the communist party. two high-profile senior officials once trusted members of xi's inner circle, abruptly vanished from public view with little explanation. first, it was foreign minister qin gang, china's second most powerful diplomat on cnn last year. >> we are fully justified to do what we must. >> reporter: a close aide of the chinese leader winning favor with the help of his wife's home made moon cakes, "the washington post" reports. just seven months into the job, a dramatic fall. in june, he disappeared in. july, he was dismissed. the for

but with two notable no—shows, russian president vladimir putin and chinese president xi jinping, then ukraine looms large. hello i'm carl nasman. presidents and prime ministers from around the world are gathering in delhi, india, for this year's 620 summit. they're set to tackle sustainability, economic growth and climate change after a year of dangerous and destructive weather across the globe. presidentjoe biden and british prime minister rishi sunak touched down earlier — and here's president tayyip erdogan of turkey arriving just a short time ago. but the absence of both russian president vladimir putin and chinese president xi jinping highlights the rising tensions over russia and its war in ukraine at this year's gathering. both leaders sent their foreign ministers in their place. it's the first time xi has missed the gathering. the event will highlight india prime minister narendra modi's attempt as host to promote the country as a major global power, and himself as dominant world leader ahead of a crucial election next year. we're looking at why the 620 gathering is so import

in 2007, xi jinping became deputy chairman of the people's republic of china and deputy chairman of the military council. on november 15 , 2012, he was elected general secretary of the cpc central committee and on march 14, 2013. sidimpin chairman of the people's republic of china chairman sidimpin often personally visits the regions. during these work trips. he visits villages and communicates with ordinary christians. he goes into their homes and asks people about their needs. it is a great joy when a friend from afar visits you, an aphorism by confucius who lived more than 2,000 years ago reflects the feeling of joy of the chinese people from meeting friends who have come from afar. at the beginning of february 2022, the president of the people's republic of china and his wife, ben li yuan, received honored guests from all over the world who attended the ceremony in the golden hall of the great hall of the people opening of the 2022 winter olympics in beijing despite the busy first opportunity. i try to find free time, as soon as i have it i always spend it with my family. and i love

he described president xi jinping as a dictator. there were criticisms and protests from the chinese side. very similar wording to what we heard today. the relationship between the u.s. and china has not been completely blown up. both sides continue to make their point. that is probably what will happen here as well. >> a week after floods killed thousands of people at the libyan city of durham, hundred are now rallying against local authorities. the protesters accuse officials in the be is eastern based government of failing to maintain the two dams that collapsed, prompting the disaster. they are calling for accountability. they left tens of thousands homeless and the need of clean water and basic supplies. dangerous conditions are hampering recovery efforts, leaving some local people searching for their loved ones on their own. >> calling out for her nephew as she routes through the rubble. she lost her brother and his family but they are building -- they're building succumbed to the fierce floodwaters. >> they used to come out h

xi jinping is not there. modi is phosting.ou have to see if this is an opportunity for modi to take the spotlight away from china from the manufacturing perspective and apple is at the heart of it. >> again, a lot of the american companies are going to get tied in to the political war which is a story we're talking about. it is not just apple in this case, but all apple suppliers and chip makers. a big mover for markets. >>> speaking of china, let's talk about a.r.m. julianna and i have been covering this this week. the ceo addressed the investors in new york ahead of the blockbuster debut which is expected next week. this amid concerns around the stagnating mobile phone market with the firm hold in 99% market share. a.r.m.'s s.e.c. filing revealed a lower valuation than implied in previous filings. that debut is set to be the biggest in america in years. cnbc spoke to goldman sachs' ceo david solomon who said the upcoming space of ipos could spark the sector. >> if you ask me to look ahead over the course of the next few mont

xi jinping is smart he saw what vladimir putin did in ukraine.ose were the saboteurs when he invaded. there is no way that they are not there when we try to defend taiwan. there is someone in the group that is prepared and were getting our military bases overwhelmed. maria: you think this is all plan that xi jinping is directed the military age people to come into america and settle here and be saboteurs or knees ready. >> we have to suspect that. we have to suspect that. anyone who does not. maria: my question to you do you believe that xi jinping is preparing for war as gordon chang says so many times. that's what i want to ask you about, the same time you have the deputy prime minister of italy the minister of foreign affairs of italy antonio sahni joined me yesterday to discuss china withdrawal, china's initiative in the china belton road strategy and how he wants italy to withdraw from the belton road strategy. watch. >> it is been a mistake in this was left-wing. it is starting the situation and we are starting to leave and at the same time

the effective marxist liniment of xi jinping and so on.he best thing going forward is emphasizing security control over government reform. on markets in my view if the global economy is going to weaken, if there is a meaningful chance of a bumpy landing, the markets are probably too much today that will probably lead to a correction the second half of the year. economic data is still weak and central banks have to hike more as a way of essentially fighting inflation it will lead to nominal and real rates rising. that means globally bond yields may go higher rather than lower when inflation is still high. >> 10% correction in equity markets? or is that too high? >> 10%, above, essentially, target recordings high in the u.s., u.k., your. central banks hiking more. i would not be surprised if the second half of the year you get to 10% correction in global equity markets. >> what would you do if you are the bank of england governor? >> the bank of england faces a dilemma. on one side growth is lower because of the self-inflicted goal, the brex

in the village, everyone jinping, learned the life of the common people from the inside, gained trustpect people, the peasants still remember how he helped bring biogas to the village, and his three-wheeled motorcycle, received as a reward for hard work. exchanged it for a hand tractor. and here is the pump for the general needs of komona, tightly, like a bamboo clinging to a green mountain with its roots. ideals and beliefs reflect a person’s aspirations, ancient people said he is driven and by aspirations he will reach anywhere, to remote mountains and to distant seas with his aspiring will, his strong armor knows no barriers, no sword from the treatise of the gaian lambi will pierce him. we are ready to borrow all the achievements in the development of human civilization and will never copy the development models of other countries. chinese reform, in essence , represents self-improvement and the development of a system of socialism with chinese characteristics; only the path that is chosen by the chinese people themselves and which corresponds to the real situation in the country

chinese president xi jinping made a major call of building a community with the shared future for mankind and he called on the international community to jointly build a world with lasting peace, universal security, and common prosperity a world that is open and inclusive clean and beautiful. since then president xi jinping has proposed a global development initiative, the global security initiative and the global civilization initiative. these initiative have enriched the vision of building a community with a shared future for mankind set out a pathway goal. realizing this more and more countries have realize they all share a huge stake of common survival and unity and cooperation is the right way. mr. president, colleagues, the historical trend of peace, developments and when/when cooperation is unstoppable but with this in mind a call for taking steps in the following four areas. first, we should uphold equity and justice and safeguard peace and security. thee security of all countries s interconnected. indeed the security of one country has an impact on that of otheron countries. it i

impossible because again if you decide to stay for life whether your name is vladimir putin or xi jinping or smith, your number one priority has got to be crushing, illuminating any source of alternative power in your country and keeping things lathered up by being angry. i believe the best thing to do is to keep talking to them, even while we have to disagree publicly. david: are you worried about an invasion of taiwan? hillary: when xi jinping saw that vladimir putin's invasion did not work as fast and smoothly as he thought it would, and that the world united with a few exceptions to impose sanctions that are not taking a toll as fast as i would like because that would change the power dynamic, but xi jinping found that and i think that before the russian invasion there is a good chance you would have moved on taiwan within two to three years. the timetable has been pushed back. david: since you've left washington there's been an increase in divisiveness. i'm sure you have noticed. what accounts for this? it's worse than it was when you were there and it was not great then, but now dem

the chinese president xi jinping will not be at this summit. is a lost opportunity for president biden and you will remember biden and xi met for several hours at last year's g-20 in bali, but it also sort of seeds the stage to president biden to make the argument that the u.s. can be a reliable partner for these developing countries and he is coming armed with proposals to reform institutions like the world bank to provide loans that can help provide funding for projects in the developing world. of course ukraine is the other issue that is going to dominate the summit and we're told in the leadup to president biden's arrival diplomats have been furiously talking about a language in the joint communique that would come out of the summit when it comes to ukraine and they haven't been able to come to any agreement on that front yet. so certainly that is a dividing line. if they aren't able to come up with a joint communique, that would be a blow to the man at the center of these talks which is the indian prime minister m modi. he is really trying

is this what jinping is thinking, yes. when the u.s. pressed him on the uyghur human rights crisis over a million uyghurs in subject to forced sterilization, communist indoctrination and worse, the first thing he says when he's asked about it is that the united states is no better because they're black lives matters proofs united states is no better. top diplomate comes to the alaska summit and faces off against our joke of the national representative, i think blinken, sitting across him and 15 minute lecture saying that china wants to see the u.s. do better on human rights and wants to see the u.s. stop slaughtering, that's his words, slaughtering black americans. this isn't an accident. they are he a using our companies to undermine our geopolitical asset at all, it's not the nuclear arsenal, it's the global stage. revise that answer to who we are. capitalists can exploit, and xi jinping exploits it. they have a word for it in chinese, refers to woke progressive white people. and they use our own insecurities against us. our weakness

this news that xi jinping won't be attending.y factors, obviously there's been tensions recently over borders and maps between u.s. and china. and also the last-minute cancellation of the speech from the brick summit from xi jinping. what do you think is behind the decision not to be there? >> well, bianca, we were seeking declarely in today's foreign ministry foreign affairs meeting that just wrapped in the last hour, what we learned is that the chinese premier will be there in new delhi. this is the clearest sign yet that xi jinping is not attendin speculation he would be a no-show. this is what we heard at the vitation of the government of republican of india, premier of the state council will attend the summit to be held in new delhi, india, september 9th and 10th. there was no mention of xi at all in that statement. xi has attended all meetings since becoming president in 2013 even during the pandemic in 2021, he joined video link. and in this conversation he'll be missing out on climate change and ukraine. and it comes as c

hillary: when xi jinping saw that vladimir putin's invasion did not work as fast and smoothly as putin thought it would, and that the world united with a few exceptions to impose sanctions that are not taking a toll on the russian economy, not as fast as i would like. because that would change the power dynamic, but xi jinping saw that and i think before the russian invasion there was a good chance that he would have moved on to taiwan within two to three years. the timetable has been pushed back. david: since you've left washington there's been an increase in what i would call the divisiveness in washington. i'm sure you have noticed. what accounts for this? it was much worse than when you were there and it is not -- was not great then, but now democrats and republicans don't want to talk about this. what do you think causes this and do you see any solution in the near term? bill: if i see it you will say i'm being a partisan democrat. but i will say it anyway. it's because republicans have been rewarded for being divisive. [applause] it's great for them because they are great at bran

xi jinping, he would not take these measures against such high-level military and diplomatic figuresenuine risk. >> reporter: what these purges do is raise a question about president xi's judgment. qin and li were considered loyalists, hand-picked from the president himself. their removal from visible positions so abruptly, it raises questions in the international community about the stability of the chinese system. chinese leaders have long said their stability makes their system superior to democracies. president xi, however, might be sending a message to the world that no matter who he has put by his side, if they fall out of favor, no one is indispensable, no one is irreplaceable under his one-man rule. will ripley, cnn, taipei. >>> we'll be right back. but she had enough. she took mucinex instasoothe sore throat lozenges. showow your sore throat who's boss. mucinex instasoothe. works in seconds. lasts for hours. hi, i'm sharon, and i lost 52 pounds on lo. on other diets, i could barely lose 10-15 pounds. thanks to golo, i've lost 27% of my body weight, and it was easy.

obviously a meeting that both long he and xi jinping will escape.important halfway point between that may meeting and a potential president xi and biden meeting at aipac and san francisco. not a lot was achieved. they both reiterated their stances on taiwan. obviously the united states reiterated its concern about beijing's support of moscow. amid that war in ukraine but again they are talking and that is always a good thing. haidi: meanwhile back in china the premier met with a visiting malaysia prime minister. did we get anything from that meeting? stephen: it was hard to say. this is on the sidelines of the china asean summit in southwestern china. at the prime minister of malaysia is there and no doubt li qiang the premier of china tried to sell him more on the belt and road initiative. as we come up on the initiative of that as well coming up in the autumn when they will have that big conference in beijing on the belt and road initiative. of course, it has had some fits and starts and allegations of diplomacy by the west. again according to the

xi jinpings he will not go. >> i am disappointed, but i will get to see him. >> carley: why wouldn'tsident go? what do you make of this? >> i was just in india and this is about china disputed border with india. chinese just released new map showing it taking over south china sea and portions of india, as well. this chinese aggression can't go unchecked and biden administration is stuck in the thinking, if we can engage them more and send more high-level meetings, chinese will begin behaving responsibly and it will not work. they see it, beijing seeing this as signal to take more and biden is disappointed because he was sending cabinet secretaries to lead up to a meeting with he and xi jinping and xi jinping nows, i will not bother and we will continue spying and with ag aggression. >> carley: congressman, thank you for joining us, we appreciate it. back here in the u.s., democrats are accused of using the court to keep donald trump off the trail and now trying to keep him auch the ballot. >> i think it is a valid argument, the 14th amendment, section three is clear, it is disqualifi

xi jinping saying he can't be bothered at this time.he went to the brics summit the week before and it was a significant summit because of the expansion of the brics. he is telling the g7, we don't need you. amy: can you talk about climate change? the climate catastrophe and how the g20 addressed it? so many climate activists around the world and right now of global heating, so deeply concerned about the lack of real statement about it. >> in fact, what is most appalling is this g20 has said nothing but the major problems of our time, which are no longer in the future. they are upon us. climate change absolutely, and the major disasters that are occurring across the world. really nothing of significance, statements that mean nothing. no concrete plan of action, just a general statement to work toward reducing fossil fuels as if nothing has changed, as if the world is still the same as last year which it is not. there was nothing really on any meaningful talk of climate change, nothing on resolving the debt crisis. which in about 80 coun

it comes back to present xi jinping.ou are addicted to china and the fentanyl they are pumping across the southern border. you are addicted to fentanyl in your kids hands. you are addicted to financial fentanyl that you cannot we yourself off of. the harder thing to do is to take a long, hard look in the nearer and ask ourselves, do we have in in us -- have it in us to do what is required. it goes back to the question at the beginning. national identity. what does it mean to be an american? it is what my parents taught me when i was younger. you can make a sacrifice. the example they set for me, entering a marriage involves sacrifice. you are giving us something else up. bringing children into this world is a sacrifice. you can make that sacrifice if you know what you are sacrificing for. it is no different for our country, weaning ourselves off of a dependence of an adversary. we never depended on the uss for the shoes on our feet or phones in our pockets. we do on china. it will involve some form of. but we can make th

the biden administration a is reinforcing xi jinping's idea that the united states is a son suplicantofficials to other places. what we have right now is biden making beijing even worse than it normally is. this is really bad policy. maria: that is exactly right and while we have sent these four cabinet members or advisors over to china, every time they go they get embarrassed. i mean, let's face it, they fed janet yellen psychedelic mushrooms. she actually took hallucinogenics from her chinese counterparts and laughed about it afterwards. she is over there bowing. you've got john kerry, while he was still on the ground in china, xi jinping comes out and says nobody's going to tell us what to do about our climate policies. it goes on and on and the ccp propaganda is now on full blast. i want to ask about this elon musk comment, gordon, because tuesday of last week elon musk, who by the way has 40% of his manufacturing in shanghai, so know that, but he said that taiwan is an integral part of china. he noted that china's policy to reunite with taiwan is appropriate and a he placed blame

xi jinping really is absolutely adamant about a number of things.e is very adamant about national security. he is adamant about the need to preserve stability above all things which is partly why the government is reluctant as other western economists have proclaimed that they should be actually putting in more powerful stimulus into the economy. the government's very opposed to doing this because they don't want to risk financial turbulence that might happen as a consequence. the real estate sector, no question, it is a disaster area. you know, even though there might be some improvement in sales and transacting volumes from depressed levels -- remember, sales and floor space and other indicators are 40% to 60% below where they were before the pandemic. so, you know, there's a possibility, particularly given the recent spate of easing of mortgage restructuring measures and urgency of delivering projects to households that have been started. there is a possibility we could see a cyclical bounce in transactions the rest of the year. nobody should be

xi jinping is not coming.oblems, economic problems of a scale he's never seen before. putin didn't want to show up because he didn't want to face the condemnation. and they couldn't get the rest of the group to agree on inviting the president zelenskyy, who you'll remember was at the g7 summit early in the summer, has been at these other events. there's going to be a struggle even to get a communique here that condemns russia. because the russians and chinese will veto that. it's not clear whether president biden will be able to take on the biggest issue, and that will leave him with trying to make sure that they work on debt relief, grain and other food issues, and the by lateral relationship with india, as the president tries to deepen that. india's leader mode was in washington for a state dinner only two months ago. >> i have heard people talk about the absence of xi jinping as a real opportunity for president biden amongst the group. what are you hearing about that? >> it does in that they won't be there

>> i think there is a tends to discount the likelihood of something like xi jinping trying to invadewan, from my perspective as military defense intelligence guy that seems up and up or if nothing else one lesson of ukraine dictators tell you going to invade a country even if that seems out land fishery western perspective, you have to take that seriously when i have a mainly asset manager into my office tell me likelihood of a china invasion of taiwan is zero my jaw drops to the floor, because i am not saying one hundred percent but it is a nonzero probability that we have to takes seriously. >> your colleague mark green chairman homeland security committee told me he does believe the increase in chinese nationals at the southern border is a directive from xi jinping that in fact he is sending military aged men into america, to set up shop, and then become saboteuring. >> do you agree a smart man i respect i have no reason to disagree he doesn't say things lightly one thing i am confident of is fentanyl flooding across southern border tilling tens of thousands americans precursors w
