of wealth today, after 20 years in the world trade organization. and now china seeks to supplant that same system and to declare all of the smaller countries to had south, essentially as tributary countries, recognizing respecting and bowing down to china's dominance of the asian continent . wow, michael a while we're in the neighbourhood. let's do an indo pacific lightning round in this order status report. japan. well, japan is going to as going to be tightened up on its own defenses. we're going to see that united states along with japan as well as i was south korea. even india, they're, they're trying to basically contain china and you can see much closer cooperation among those nations. and of course you got north korea that south korea is still worried about you're gonna, you're going to be seen in south korea itself is going to be trying to work with the us much more closely. and it has issues with china. you have the philippines, they have real serious issues with china in terms of our access rights, mineral rights, ah, that, that it is confounding. the problem in the south china sea stand off with, with, with those countries. as john pointed o

there are the members and china are discussing a code of conduct in the south china sea. they're already competing claims in large parts of the south china sea between some member states and china. and of course, that we talk about the intent security rivalry between us and china, and that's linked and part to the south china sea. now, many member states have said they don't want to have to choose between these 2 big giants. the u. s. is a traditional ally for many member states, but china is in their own backyard and it's a very important trade partner in the us for the 1st time in 4 years is participating in this in summit with us president joe biden joining in fire tele conference later on tuesday, in contrast, former president donald trump skip the events 4 times during his term. and this often summit is also taking place in the back top of a new security pipe, known as a trilateral pack between the u. s. u. k and australia for the india pacific region . and i imagine that will also be on the agenda with member state prep, wanting to say they want that keen to maintain

few hours, we are seeing the worst of it, sir. effects hear it, but it remains way south of us out on the south china sea is it tracks or west woods. so we're having very little in the way of damaging winds that you normally associate with their big typhoon systems about what we are getting is a cause a lot of rain. we are a on the outer edge of its rain bands as it, as it moves west. so a, we're getting a lot of rain and because of that that the government here is raised, the typhoon alert level to typhoon 8. so which is fairly high on the warning scale, it basically means that the city a while this thing passes is pretty much at a standstill. government offices are closed, schools are closed, a lot of businesses simply didn't opened at this wednesday. or they'd also affects things like transport, some transport is running, but things like fairies are suspended and people pretty much are treating this as a, as a day off, almost. there was a tuesday afternoon and evening. a lot of activity at stores as people were doing last minute by and getting essentials. basically preparing to hunker down. for th

obviously, one of the big problems that exists between's china and some of the other countries is the southna sea, where china and a number of those other countries claim all or parts of the south china sea and are in dispute about who can do what there. they mentioned they hoped to get a code of conduct sorted out as soon as possible. the biggest problem are the countries standing in the way of that. yvonne: i was going to ask about south china sea because that is the big sticking point. is this new proposal part of that aqua does it include maritime matters? if not, i'm wondering does this leave the asean once again trying to choose sides between the u.s. and china. >> i don't know if it is a new proposal on relations. generally strengthening the already good relationship on economic and trade and other matters. there does not seem to be a new proposal on the south china sea from china. just calling for early implementation an agreement on what they have already been discussing on the issue. if that actually happens or not i guess is a question for the asean countries to make a decision o

south china sea. the u.s. saids that international water. but china claims most of the south china sea as its sovereign waters. that's where the friction comes in in this disputed piece of water. not just that there was a submarine there. also the u.s., uk and others doing a multiforce lead by the uk carrier strike 21. they too were operating in the south china sea. a show of force where we are seeing more aggressive actions from the chinese against taiwan. with he saw it not only on the day of the accident when the military flew aircraft in and a couple of days later, they flew more than 50 aircraft into the region. china said it could try to make a move taking over taiwan by 2025. that's also part of the friction around beijing, washington relations. just meeting with a high-ranking chinese official trying to set up a virtual meeting between president joe biden and president xi jinping. there is still this underlying pressure surrounding taiwan and the south china sea. >> you heard it said there, beijing sent those ships close to taiwan. taipei called for peaceful

if you go a couple of hundred kilometres off the south—east coast of china you reach taiwan, an islandhaves as an independent state. beijing, though, considers it part of china and this graphic shows taiwan's air defence zone which chinese military planes have increasingly entered, crossing an unofficial line between mainland china and taiwan, and these incursions have risen through the year. and to taiwan this is more than just military posturing. its defence minister says the situation is worse than it's been for a0 years, and when asked if china's capable of invading taiwan, this was the reply. translation: after 2025 i they will be fully prepared. that's our assessment. the us sees a threat, too. here's the wall street journal telling us... my colleague michael bristow covered the story. these unnamed us officials are confirming that us special forces are in taiwan because it wants to remind beijing, at a time of heightened tension over taiwan, that the united states does still stand behind taiwan and will help it defend itself. china's response to american support of taiwan would

so in beijing's view taiwan belong to china as does large parts of the south china sea and some partsof territory on the border with india and some of the smaller portion with a small mountain country of bhutan. first and foremost it's really about gaining those territorial ambitions. in addition, it's important to note that the people's liberation army man goes to protect the communist regime and the communist government. so the military doesn't actually belong to the state. it belongs to the party. those territorial ambitions are destabilizing enough, especially if they were to be brought about by the use of military force. but increasingly china has a global military as well, or increasinglyly operating globaly and that's mostly to protect china's overseas interests where chinese citizens working abroad or have investments to try to protect those overseas. and so we have tove watch closey what the china's military buildup is looking like. >> we will go today then northport new york. welcome to the conversation. go ahead. >> caller: good morning. thanks. i'm curious. is this potenti

of the investigation. crucially the navy did not say it happened in the south china sea. defense officials the navy said it happened in the international waters of indo pave region. it doesn't like to acknowledge where the subs are operating but that location is crucial with these rising tensions with china right now. >> oren, this happened in a very tension part of the world as i don't need to remind you, near china and taiwan when the chinese are directing threats at taiwan. >> absolutely, the south china sea the u.s. considers that international waters under international law. china said most of the china sea is its sovereign territory so operateing there is a way for the u.s. to show the world that it sees these as international waters that could be used and on top of this sub mean operating there, there is also a multi-national show of force led by the u.k. called carrier strike group 21 that was just operating in the south china sea. in terms of the tension between beijing and washington over taiwan, the same day as this accident there were more than 30 military eri

if you go a couple of hundred kilometres off the south—east coast of china you reach taiwan, an islandlitary planes have increasingly entered, crossing an unofficial line between mainland china and taiwan, and these incursions have risen through the year. and to taiwan this is more than just military posturing. its defence minister says the situation is worse than it's been for a0 years, and when asked if china's capable of invading taiwan, this was the reply.

south china sea. in se, asia has become quite a strategic battle ground between the us and china. china especially has claimed large parts of the south china sea and the competing claims between the members and china. now this meeting also takes place off just shortly after a new security deal with in between the u. s. u k and australia, which will give a straight access to nuclear public power submarines. so we heard at the meeting a strategy in prime minister reassure ozzie and leaders that this security deal will not be a threat to security in the region. sorry, interesting. currently there with all the nations from that meeting for us from calling on for. thank you. or the lives of thousands of pregnant women in afghanistan are increasingly at risk. the world health organizations as the country, as health system is on the brink of collapse, infant mortality rates had actually been dropping for decades. but now, an economic crisis is putting both mothers and their babies at further risk. charlotte balance reports from couple voice mail. you seem google is 20 years old and this is her 1st baby. she's just 3 hours old. wil

lots of incursions for impulses that carry on the ships of all kinds and possibly so our agents into town or south sea and other waters around china. this is a very serious matter and china condemns such incursions. and they are not purely freedom of navigation exercises. they are using freedom of navigation as an excuse to challenge channel sovereignty and territorial integrity. and in such a way, china not only contempt it will prepare the consequences for such violations of channels. national interest. i mean, though, we will get more your video about the economist magazine on our youtube channel in widely quoted remarks around the world of aging correspondence saying, she g being will try and unify china before he leaves office. what he may give, he is very popular among the chinese people. he probably will be very long, so be in positions. now. the unification of china, that is china's mainland, with china. taiwan properties is a mega trends of our time. it will happen sooner or later. it will happen peacefully if we can, and not peacefully if it has to be. so we need to prepare for that day when the reunification will happen

secondarily for, they want to assert greater dominion or greater influence over the resources of the south china sea, as us as a potential solution to a lot of china's long term energy problems. so they're doing this right now, but they didn't want to push it too far. they don't want to push so far that japan will continue with its defense build up, which it's indicating that it wants to do, or that australia will accelerate its naval expansion program or even worse for china that the u. s. will station more troops in taiwan or engage in more freedom of navigation, exercise in the state of taiwan. so this is a, this is china saying, hey, we reserve the right to do this. we will have the ability to do this. but we're not going to do it today. interesting. well, i am sure they're not looking at this is, i guess this is kind of a victory for taiwan at this point, at least they get 3 years. but i look at this sort of like we got 3 years of league living with this dark cloud over the world, saying this could happen at a point which could happen anywhere by then. who knows what's going to be going on

and it's difficult to project power for a country like the philippines in the water of the south china sea. so, look, the gray zone can matter this these marginal or sort of ungoverned spaces, basically. but, you know, the chinese aren't going to be able to sort of, like, gray zone their way into seizing the island of lausanne and coercing the philippine government into exceeding to their will. the reason i focus so much on the military is not because i think the military or sort of war and peace are the most valuable part of human affairs. to the contrary, you know, what we want here is a decent peace. but if you don't get -- it's a little bit like the police, you know? if you have a neighborhood that doesn't have law and order and it has crime, forget about commercial development, forget about schools, forget about -- people are going to leave the neighborhood. they're not going to want to be there. once you get to that position, you don't really think about the police that much. it's kind of on a autopilot. if you lived in new york in the late 1980s, early 1990s, you were only think
