for some of the growing tensions in the south china sea or a greater threat to regional stability, then china is growing assertiveness and military pressure on self rule. try one. and again, trying to claims almost all of the south china sea, the philippines, vietnam, malaysia and bruna. i all have competing claims to the waterway around one 3rd of global shipping passes through these waters. and it's also taught to contain boss deposits of oil and gas. second, tell me, show lies about 200 kilometers in the western island. province impala, one, it's more than a 1000 kilometers in china is near as major land mass height. on island, china has built a series of mine, made islands a top rapes in the maritime region. to press its claims. some of these islands are fully weaponized with pfizer jets on to ship systems and other military facilities . in 2016, an international tribunal ruled in favor of the philippines and said china is claims in the south china sea had no legal basis. beijing has refused to accept this decision. now, the philippines has filed a claim with the united nations to e

and it comes as already high tensions in the south china sea escalating that's been triggered by the election of lodging tay as president until one. so food orland territory, the china records has its own and to be re taken by force if necessary. during the mason minutes, the don't joined. express. china is phone position on the tie. one question. recently us government expressed congratulations on has no gratian incentive delegation to the integration ceremony regarding this minister don't. john said the tie. one question is purely an internal affair of china and external forces have no right to interfere on this joint. it says any declaration of independence by taiwan would be a declaration of rules. that scene is a response to it's nearly no great and presidents, previous comments when the autonomy join now has recently carried a moment at 3 exercise. just need to, i want part of an overlay increase in military activity, including around the coast, philippines. something manila is described as worse than the us condemns these military moves, but it's carrying a joint exercises with

can i begin with you because you know the claims over the south china sea garza ukraine. me and ma, north korea, the list goes on in this very short program. so because we just start with the south china sea plains, by china, over the years to large parts of it. china is investments and it's navy, according to official frequencies around 1.4 trillion allocated between 202420. 28. china was putting its money where it's now phase. well, certainly in this case where its claim is absolutely. well, i think if we look at the problems facing the world today, whether that's ukraine, whether that's the tragedy in gaza, that some of a genocide and the rising tensions in the south china sea, that none of these conflicts that are broken out would be possible without the involvement and the explicit support of the united states. and i think this is but fear in the south china sea that will the philippines be in the pacific equivalent of the ukraine, where the us wants to find russian down to the last few premium. is it attempting to find china down to the last filipino and i think chin

defense treaty with the philippines and the united states is not provoking aggression in the south china seareefs and submerged islands in the south china sea, asserting their territorial you title over reefs and submerged islands within the philippines exclusive economic zone, trying to basically annex filipino territory. the united states is fulfilling treaty obligations with the u.s. nay you i have to protect tear tore -- navy to protect territorial waters of our ally, philippines. it's clear what's going on. it doesn't take much -- i went to see what china's doing in the south china sea. they're trying to militaryize these reefs, these islands, build up artificial islands, building runways, putting military fighter jets on them, satellite communication, anti-aircrafting trying to create a difficult you the at this for the united states -- difficulty for the united states, trying to resupply taiwan in the event of an invasion. maria: we don't know where this is going. but this is dangerous conversations underway right now for that very reason. congressman, i've got to get your take on thi

especially in the south china sea and the taiwan strait. he was speaking to our china correspondent and she began by asking him how chinese officials are reacting to this message on taiwan. they can test the facts. we have the right facts. we know exactly what's happening. we know what's being shipped by chinese companies. we know the impact it's having on the ability of russia to conduct this war. and so we're absolutely sure of our facts and the chinese ought to own up to this. we have sanctioned a great number of chinese companies, and we're prepared to do more by the way. we remind china that chinese officials, they have considerable authority in this authoritarian government over what happens, and they can certainly crack down on these companies, and they ought to do it because it is a major problem. and it's a major — obviously a major assistance to russia in this war effort. how much communication is there between the two sides, and how difficult is it for you? we know there have been times... i've been here for two plus years. there

there is a dispute with territorial- a dispute with territorial waters around the south china sea, theee any progress being made on the code of conduct much talked about, so far we haven't seen any concrete action?— so far we haven't seen any concrete action? you are right on this point. _ concrete action? you are right on this point, because - concrete action? you are right on this point, because the i concrete action? you are right. on this point, because the code of conduct is being negotiated but without much progress. the question is not about china, it's also about internal differences and disputes among other countries. when we come to the south china sea issue, people think it's between china and other countries, between china and the philippines. it is not the case. there were so many maritime disputes among those countries knock but they don't end in consultation like we have seen between china and the philippines is actually we are not seeing the consultation. china isjust using water cannon to use a warning. it's the filipino coastguard who killed the chinese before. i don'

last monday , an incident occurred in the south china sea between chinese patrol boats and a philippine that the philippines is deliberately causing provocations in the region and assumes that washington is pushing manila to do this. about everything more details alexander baletsky. this skirmish in the south china sea almost provoked a full-scale armed conflict, as soon as the chinese coast guard spotted philippine military boats near rifan, which , according to beijing, is in chinese territorial waters, the prc coast guard went on board, the filipinos tried to fight back with water cannons, the chinese used hooks and knives and cut through the inflatable boats of the philippine coast guard. to me, this is piracy. the chinese coast guard illegally entered our boats and damaged them. them, real piracy. according to the philippine military, who filmed everything, one of the fighters even lost a finger in the brawl; navigation equipment was destroyed in beijing by the actions of its coast guard, called the defense of sovereignty. the reason for the current situation around the zhenya reef

it's full of oil and gas at the bottom of the south china sea. tions around the south china sea to include the philippines are pushing back and they should do so. in this particular incident, a collision of two military warships ought to get everybody's attention in terms of how this is ratcheting up, and final point here, andrea, as you mentioned, we are bound by treaty to defend the philippines. it's a mutual defense treaty just like we have with 32 nations in nato, as we have with japan, south korea, australia. it's a very significant commitment, so when one of our treaty allies is banging heads pretty significantly and i think on the right side of the issue with china, we ought to pay close attention. >> and speaking of the far east, you've got vladimir putin in north korea. we've got less than a minute, but how concerning are you about the military support for vladimir putin from kim jong-un? >> i'm very concerned, and i add it to the kind of second tier support. it's a little ser repetitious, but that's coming from china and iran is also ass

china shut down communication. i think that in recent months it has been relatively better. it's important, our militaries are operating in close proximity to each other in the south and east china seasiwan strait. we want to have communication. the last thing that we want is an accident or misunderstanding that leads to conflict. we are very focused on reducing the probability of conflict. >>king aut communication, that must have been a real concern given the operations currently taking place in the south china sea. >> that's exact the right. that and the taiwan strait and other parts of the world as well. so, i would say it's relatively better. >> relatively better, but not much better? >> you know, it is a contentious, competitive lationship. issue where we are divided withr a lack of communication at the highest level being a real problem. you don't want to send the wrong signal, you want to talk about problems when they occur. especially if there has been an accident, and that happens, you wa and defuse the csis, make sure that it don't expand into something you don't understand. >> really interesting conversation. what has the chinese response been? >> well, china always insist

philippines accuses china or anything like pirates, bodies, inflated weapons, and a major at south china sea escalation. the foundation is deliberate, over $300000000.00 will suffice in more than $75.00 countries around the world, 100 percent of sex on an emergency donation spence on projects. we insure beneficiaries come 1st of a $300.00 on luis hobbins. it goes through the roof, the crossing in recent months. our most of these bless and the bless i'm we all turning jo, donations into direct delivery in the shortest possible time donates with confidence. the for the book about 2 weeks ago, just bear with me. so he'll run the reminder of all told stories must protest take place in nairobi, can you against the government's plans of increasing taxes please society, gas and use was counted to disperse, crowns and valleys near the problem. and so, so i'll just go over that. so those power minute feedback, pittsville falls, they've taken control of answer some of the capital of the west coast on states financing. and also between these 2, these on the, on the, on a sense, last 6, several hours be

fleets of the philippines and the us navy operating in the east asian waters, particularly the south china sea china has the numbers here but this has to be put in the context of your context as well. we have what my colleague describes as the full flashpoint of east asia, the korean peninsula, the east china sea, the south china sea and taiwan. my sense is that what we see in the second is the demonstration, if you like, when china is trying to say. including in taiwan and that it is prepared to press to a point by looking to not cross a kinetic threshold, if you like, not firing any bullets or guns or missiles, looking to provoke and perhaps push to the limit and perhaps push to the limit and perhaps push to the limit and perhaps trigger a reaction from the philippines or the us or someone in taiwan or elsewhere in a similar circumstances to then be there one so they can say see, we are not the starters of this conflict, you guys are. my senseis conflict, you guys are. my sense is that what we see here is not so much — in the west we tend to view things in terms of war and peace and we tend

almost every one of them, vietnam is no exception, there is a contradiction with china in the south china seaietnam it is called the eastern sea, and russia - an increasingly close partner of china. china is our big neighbor, and china and russia are both major powers in the world. and both, both countries are permanent, permanent members of the security council, the united nations, everyone knows this, so i think that the rapprochement of these states, i think, should be aimed at maintaining peace, stability, security, not only in region and throughout the world, this is... firstly, and secondly, as for vietnam, both russia and china are comprehensive strategic partners of our country, we we are developing relations with china and russia globally, suffice it to say that last year, too, chinese president qi chimping paid a state visit to vietnam, this year, today we have a state visit of president putin to vietnam, this is fully consistent with the goals and interests of an independent foreign vietnamese policy, in addition, we understand that russia always stands for maintaining peace and st

militaries are operating in very close proximity to each other in the spratlys paracels of the south china seae taiwan strait. you want to have communication because the last thing we want is an accident or misunderstanding that leads to conflict. we're very focused on reducing the probability of a conflict. you talked about military to military communication. that must have been a real concern, especially given, you know, the operations that are currently taking place in the south china sea, for instance. that's exactly right. that and the taiwan strait and other parts of the world as well. so i would say it's relatively better. relatively better, but not much better. you know, it's a contentious competitive relationship. if we went through, and maybe we will, issue after issue where we're divided, lack of communication at the highest level is a real problem because you don't want to send the wrong signal. you want to be able to talk about problems when they occur, and especially if there's some kind of an accident. and that's happened in the us—china relationship. you want to be able to have

this skirmish in the south china sea almost provoked a full-scale armed conflict, as soon as the chineseear rifan, which, according to beijing, is in chinese territorial waters, the prc coast guard went on board, the filipinos tried to fight back with water cannons, the chinese used hooks and knives and cut through the inflatable boats of the philippine coast guard. to me, this is piracy, chinese coastal. was filmed, one of the fighters even lost a finger in the brawl, navigation equipment was smashed in beijing, the actions of their coast guard were called the defense of sovereignty. the reason for the current situation around reef zhenya is clear; it lies in the philippine side’s violation of its promise and refusal to tow a military vessel allegedly illegally grounded. they abandoned him in the area of ​​the disputed islands on board constantly . in the late nineties, the filipinos had a team of military personnel on special duty and, despite the previous agreements between manila and beijing, they could barely remove holding on to the floating structure, the philippines , opposite it

as you know gordon beijing claims much of the south china sea as its own. hina sea, the philippines says it will continue the operation but remain open to dialogue, how do you see this. >> the south china sea is the likely next flashpoint, what china is doing extremely belligerent and provocative and what is even more concerning china is doing this in spite of a dozen warnings from the biden state department in the president himself the united states is prepared to use force against china with the 1951 defense treaty with the philippines china is continuing the actions which means is not deterred by the united states, it means we will see the death of a filipino sailor and as president marco said at the dialogue last week that that is an act of war and clearly china is not deterred by president biden we have to be concerned that that is the next war. maria: when you make warnings about nothing to show for it they keep blowing off your warning, the communist party is probably right to say will just keep doing they can warn all they want but there's no account

this week, for example, beijing's claims to the south china sea have seen the coast guard class with s, key allies of the ited states. and the other potential flashpoint could be the upcoming u.s. presidential elen,erthe u.d about the possibility that china may interfere in those elections. the claim online is one that beijing strenuously denies. as you mentioned, one of the key potential flashpoints is the war in ukraine, where america china of helping supply components to russia. here is what the ambassador had to say. >> they can test facts. we have the right facts, we know what's happening and we know what is being shipped by chinese companies. we know the impact it is having on the ability of russia to conduct this war. so, we are absolutely sure of our fact and the chinese should own up to this. we have sanctioned a great number of chinese companies and we are prepared to do more, by the way, we have reminded chinese officials. they have considerable authority and the authoritarian governme over what happens and they can crackdown on these companies and they ought to do it becau

trying to puncture these inflatable boats that the filipinos -- or the philippines have in the south china sea there. you've got the chinese trying to push back on anybody that comes into their sphere of influence, close to their country, south china sea, other places. this is something, the key thing here, we have a commitment with the philippines that if they are attacked by china or by anyone else, we have to come to their defense. so what the president there has said is that if there's one person killed, if there's one philippine national that's killed from either their coast guard or navy, that could sent us into a hot war with china. that's something nobody's watching. >> who knew the situation was on a knife's edge. so precarious and simmering right before our very eyes. matt miller says the u.s. stands with its ally, the philippine, and condemned the irresponsible actions by china. john, thank you very much for joining us. have a good worning. >> you, too. >> former president trump leading president biden in six swing states including pennsylvania, where he will rally voters there tomo

we may agree with the americans on many of these especially south china sea, sort of chinese behavior that needs to respect international law. but not on everything. we don't look at china's challenge as a geopolitical challenge for we europeans don't look at ourselves as number one. so that's chinese challenge us. they challenge us on on trade issues. which are in the compe so that's the dispute we're going through wit now. but we have our own approach to china. last word on theship dimension, beyond the trade and economic partnership that we to. i think you're right about some of the sort of skepticism also on the climate change agenda because they're still holding onto a position where they try to sayl, we're big but we're still a developing country. so we don't to commit to climate fin order to is a success. this is for you in the west, the le do. i think we hav that. and to nudge them as much as we can. so -- but i think what's our approach to trying to engage china as ae change issues is that we won't come viable approach on the global level without china but that dothey're alre

but there's also been the buildup of military bases in the south china sea, the increase of air sorties u.s. military planes. >> do you see a lowering of the temperature in the south china sea? >> no, and that's a problem. >> you don't? >> and then on taiwan, following speaker pelosi's visit, we've seen now for 16 months a much higher rate of chinese both air activity and naval activity. it's very intimidating, meant to intimidate. >> and they haven't pulled back on that? >> they haven't pulled back on that, and i think ultimately they want to become and overtake the united states as the dominant country globally, and we don't want that to happen. we don't want to live in a world where the chinese are the dominant country. >> when the cold war ended, we all thought our system had won. >> yeah. >> you know, their system failed. our system rose up. now he's come back and said, no, no. the communist system's the right way. i guess we didn't bury that after all. >> you know, it's interesting to compare the old cold war with this time. what distinguishes this time versus the old cold war, th
