of a, in there is looking at a situation. now the chinese policies south time, is described as one of a tactical expediency when china will forge 2nd agreements, violate some parts and tried to sort of cover it out with the reassurances at the high level. do you think there's any difference in how china relates to its various partners and which agreements it's choose us to uphold a perfectly or let's say for goal, this is what, in fact, is it happening because, you know, many of the agreements which india and china put in place uh, the agreed that the border there will be tranquillity, bees till that time we are able to resolve this issue. now that continued for quite some time uh, at least uh 20 years plus. but suddenly, some of those times the deal, seeing that they were why they did buy china, the china will have its own explanation. but the problem, but the fact of the matter that was that in fact the mattress tell you that will couple of years. relations between india and china has not been normally, and we have to bring it back to the normal se, but, and that's raises the question of what is normal because i mean, the nor

: i usually like to wait to talk to a senator or house of representative, but on this topic of china and southuth america has the largest shipping port in peru. they've been in brazil for the past 15, 20 years. they have the largest population in brazil of chinese immigrants. they set up the largest mining and ore facility ever created. we once again, the americans and our legislative branch, has let china take over control of south america. i find that interesting because the munro doctrine clearly states we are not supposed to have anybody in our western hemisphere, but due to the out sourcing in the 1980's and have mr. clinton, we have let china run amok in south america and south africa. so, china is eating america's lunch and will continue to eat america's lunch. i don't see us lasting. as mr. rubio said in his confirmation hearing, in the next 10 years, there's nothing we are not going to do without china's permission. where does the lobbyist stand on this topic? thank you. guest: i'm not a lobbyist, first of all. i think it is a very good question and i appreciate it very much. the call

journalism all across these places to highlight some of those interference efforts, let's go to latin and south america, where again, the people's republic of china is attempting to curry influence corrupt public institutions, corrupt public officials in order to decimate u.s. influence in the region. usaid supports independent journalism and fact finding that reveals those efforts to the people of those countries. so there's really not a part of the globe that you can look at and pick where usaid isn't having an effect that is direct to national security. and that is what chinese and russian, kremlin and prc media outlets are today so excited about. >> so and you haven't even touched all the topics. let me go to malaria and tuberculosis outbreaks, medicines for half a million children living with hiv, a bird flu outbreak happening right now in at least 49 countries. these are just some of the global health emergencies usaid works to combat. what are the real world consequences of shuttering this agency, patrick? >> well, yes. just in terms of medical health, the short term effects, interruption of important medical services, aids relief in all s

of a shining new city. our south—east asia correspondent jonathan head explained why china might have allowed the bbc in toguess is they are in some trouble. it is clear the somewhat enigmatic figure, she zhijiang, who was in a thai prison, is very important to the project. they look up to him as a leader, almost worship him, and feel they cannot progress with him being stuck in prison. it is also affecting the confidence of people who might be putting money into the city. what struck us is lots of these compounds have sprung up along the thai—myanmar border, they are pretty low—key, basic buildings, people are crammed in there and made to carry out these scams. they were in other parts of asia before that. it is clear yatai has aimed a great deal higher and they genuinely believe they can build something bigger than just the scams, a genuine resort. it seems crazy to think you can do that and they have put so much investment in that they are struggling. it seems crazy to think you can do that in a remote, all torn part of myanmar. access has become very difficult, the border is sealed, myanmar is a war zo

on monday over the leading terrace in the seas and home comb take you on south korea slums by up to 2 percent of the trading. china says it will react to terrace, imposed on its exports. jessica washington has moved on the chinese reaction from beijing me approach the end of the chinese new year holiday. we're looking ahead to february for when this additional 10 percent tariff on chinese goods entering us will take effect what we heard from badging is swift criticism, saying that these meshes will run counter to us china cooperation. aging has also pledged to take up this method directly with the world trade organization and file a case of this. we are waiting to hear what townsend mission, aging has in mind, does say that there will be some on the way. it is of course, important to look at the broad economic context, chinese economy don't space a number of challenges at this moment. we look at things like unemployment, low consumer spending, property sector crisis with exports, exports remain a bright start for the economy. in fact, in 2024, the latest data from just january shows that china requoted a trade sur

of the panama canal. where do you see change here? >> reporter: china is doing this all over the world. it is certainly in latin america throughout south and central america. the panama canal is obviously extremely important, the most important waterway for the united states in the world with most of our goods going through the canal and strategic importance too. anything china can do to get some kind of control over these places and spending huge amounts of money to give it some leverage and maybe even to give it a bit of a choke hold then it will do and it is very interesting. panama was one of the few countries in the world that have recognize taiwan much to china's outrage because they don't like that and has backed off so no question that china has been dramatically increasing its influence. they can control significant port facilities near the canal so this is a major significant threat to the united states. you think about the number of doctrine and what john f. kennedy did with the cuban missile crisis. this has been a long-standing concern of the united states. having a major strategic enemy in our backyard here is a problem f

of life and after south korea's capital. so rob, so trump types on canada and mexico and china, i've truly spooked the asian markets. tell us what's been happening, rob, and that's what i mean. the prospect of a trade war is certainly causing just as here, crossed asian, we've seen that reflected in the way that the markets have been reacting. especially given the importance of trans pacific trade to the big exporting economies in these parts of the world. that obviously the country that's most directly effected here, that's china with its eminent 10 percent tighter. it's, it's markets are still closed for the losing the new year. but they hadn't setting index in hong kong about as we opened monday. and that is reflected a lot of the chinese nervousness that opens down daily to present, although it has recovered some. the nic a in japan down gold and 2 and a half percent. the costs be that's the main index in south korea down over 3 percent. and so the concern is, but country companies such as south korea, with a lot of manufacturing abroad in places like mexico with the production of chips and also cause producing t

of northeastern china. so produced most now i think for hong cheer and hawkeye do some will catch the edge of, of south korea as well, but the air is getting cold drugs. it floods out for a couple of days at least so. so for example, go down to minus 8, may well get down to near 0 and by using and it's north of the young see we're attempting to start to drop a little bit. that's not going to be a huge push. it's already after will not particularly wellbeing as file size is hong kong. so that's the will get cooler genetic down to 0. it's not a big deep freeze. now is this now you'll notice i suspect that remove across to india where things are generally quiet. there's a change to the tenor of the feet of the weather in the know of them quite an evening. new deputy with a call to has been very pull those thunderstorms monte improved things a bit. the true economic meltdowns, administrative disasters, political divisions and now is rails invasion 11 and for survived on the toilet. the civil society, as citizens of stepped in to provide with the states has found volter, included by our electricity is dictated by

that the cost of the american people for rampant illegal immigration and for the illicit drug trade that has started with precursor materials in china to fentanyl being put together southof our border in mexico and then trafficked into into the united states. those costs have been significantly more damaging to the american people than this proposed possible trade war. at the end of the day, what president trump is doing is that he wants china and mexico and canada to take our national security interests just as seriously as they take theirs. and when it comes to fentanyl, let's be very clear. the precursor material is from china. the tablets are assembled in mexico. they come into the united states, and they are the number one killer of americans between the ages of 18 and 45. so donald trump told everybody on the campaign trail he's going to use every tool available to secure this nation. and this is a part of it. >> come back. i got to item two on my list. there were seven other things. so i hope you'll come back and we can we can discuss more in the future. all right. thank you congressman. >> anytime any time. >> social media reaction from the world of x. what do

another question, china is pouring billions of dollars into infrastructure projects over central and south america. one example is in could or. china made a deal to fund a $3.4 billion hydroelectric dam. there are 17,000 cracks already and there is a lot of corruption. ecuadorian officials have been put in prison and sentenced for bribery charges. using that as an example for the region, the strategy of china is clear. and this is in the words of dorian minister, the strategy is that they want to take economic control of countries. in panama for instance, it is about 7.7% of their gdp as i understand. using ecuador, should congress be concerned that china could extract significant leverage over panama given the outsized role in revenue from the canal that it plays in their finances? chair sola: yes, senator. it very well could. i believe that we are in a very fortunate position with secretary rubio who knows the area very well. sen. budd: thank you very much. chairman cruz: senator, we should also look at the port in peru. sen. budd: thank you very much. chairman cruz: thank you. senator k

the european union was south america, the southeast asian countries, updating their agreement with china, so in the form of actual agreements or simply informal business dealings, the result of this is a diversification away from the united states that is going to make things more difficult for u.s. headquartered firms. >> what kind of role does this leave doesn't -- the wto? do they have a role to play here? >> they do but they are under enormous stress. when the world's largest economy seems to disregard the rules that were agreed and have been in place and provide certainty and global trade and investment relations, those institutions, those rules are weekend. the wto is not going anywhere. there are a lot of other countries deeply committed to preserving it and abiding by those rules but i think you will also inevitably see countries forming more bilateral and regional blocks again as a way to insulate themselves from economic coercion, no matter what the source might be. >> and mentioned you used to work at the white house and you were there during the end of the bush years and the start of the obama

faced accusations there was some fictitious truckload of ballots coming to philadelphia, smuggled in from china by italian organized crime figures in southlly, it was nonsense. you would change that channel. you would walk out of that movie. so absurd. it doesn't mean it doesn't get around and take hold. it has immense damage to not just confidence in elections but for the people who work in elections, the precinct level, that received threats of violence and intimidation. the default is to disregard things because they are nonsense. they have to be addressed. unfortunately, the more fantastical they are, the harder they are to address. it is not a matter of saying no, joe frazier, the deceased voter, famous boxer in philly, no one voted for him. that's easy to disprove. it is so far-fetched there would be a truckload of ballots, we have a record of who voted, sometimes the more fantastical it is, the harder it is to disprove and the more damage it can do in terms of confidence in elections and threats of violence/intimidation targeting election officials. sec. simon: the silver lining for all of us, i don't want to speak for anyone, but

they want the control about a 60% of the trade area there in the south china sea.e free trade around the world, you can't have china asking other people to to pay homage to them. for us, yeah, we'd love to have peace with china, but they can't be stealing our copyrights, our patents and so forth expecting to have business as usual. i think president trump is in the right direction when he says, look, we've got a message for them, and that is if they want to come to the bargaining table with us, we're more than willing to do it, but we're going to have an understanding that things are going to have to change in this relationship. stuart: senate committees have cleared the path for confirmation of tulsi gabbard and and rfk jr. looks like mr. trump's going to get every nominee he wants, right? >> we have 11 down right now, another one we'll be confirming yet today to. so far i think the senate has given clear evidence that we're part of a winning team and that we want to be a part of a winning team moving forward. we want the president to put his group into place, and

fell half a percent. china is markets the clothes for the new year holidays but resume trading on wednesday. but from on all of this, we joined now by rob mcbride, who is in south cruz capital, sol. so from trump's terrace on canada, mexico and china clearly spoke to the asian markets. it can you just tell us exactly what's been happening in potentially how much was it could get yeah, yeah, that's right. i mean, these phase of a looming trade war upset and they said just as throughout asia, and we've seen that in the way the markets have been reacting at this monday. especially given the volumes of trans pacific trade as the big exporting economies in this part of the world have come to rely upon the country that's most directly affected. of course is china facing those 10 percent terrace? it's market financial markets. us bill of luna. you yeah, holiday, but we've seen some of the concerns from china are expressed through the mindset and getting is x which that returned to trading on monday. it was down 92 percent of the stats of tri dingle level. recovered some. we've seen big losses under the japanese new k on the cost be index here in south korea, but aroun

of all this? well, if. >> you're president trump, you look at what are the issues with china. we have these issues in the south china sea. >> continued military engagement, escalation. >> we have. >> china coming. into latin america, panama, peru. there are a lot of. instances where china. >> is challenging. >> u.s. interests. >> and i think. >> the president. >> would like to solve that, not just the trade issue. >> so, you know. >> you name it. >> you make it as big. >> as you'd like. but i think. >> the president is thinking bigger. than just. >> today's tariffs. >> that's very interesting. and whether that makes it easier or harder to solve i guess time will tell. gentlemen. for now. thanks. carlos gutierrez and derek mcneil. >> all right. we are just getting started and. on deck. will the canada tariff cost you gas money? well, as we said earlier, it may depend on where you live. we'll explain more you live. we'll explain more with energy coming up. ♪ empower ♪ so handsome. oh, i can't buy this. woah, woah. your empower investment account has grown. you earned it, so...

and china are in the midst of a hard power competition, but also a soft power competition. china is very active in the global south, in africa and south america, and they want to present themselves as the stabilizing force, as the friend of these nations who comes to help them when they're in need. and if the u.s. withdraws from that space, one can reasonably expect that china will move into occupy. >> and china has the resources to do it. so too does the u.s. they're pulling them back. so so what happens now? >> well, that is a big question. one is that, yes, china probably does attempt to. it doesn't mean they do it perfectly. i mean china. china has its own problems delivering aid. a lot of those countries often feel that that china strong arms them. right. and doesn't give this sort of aid freely. but on the other hand, right now, the u.s. is in the midst of what appears to be a massive rethinking of its dealings with the world, and not just with adversaries like china, but its friends. right. when you look at tariffs and when you look at attempts to say, take land in greenland from denmark, who is a who's an

of 72. u. s. military base has spread across south america and the caribbean. china and russia did not have even one base in the hemisphere. so i think this comes is uh, welcome news. the us 8 is now cut off and hopefully a relic of america's imperial passed. these really prime minister has left tell a v for washington to meet with donald trump before his plane took goals. benjamin netanyahu said he would try to convince the us president to help redraw the most of the middle east. the decisions we made in the war of already change the face of the middle east. our decisions and the courage of our soldiers have redrawn them out. but i believe that working closely with president trump with and redrawn even further and for the better. i believe that we can strengthen security, broadening the circle of these and achieve a remarkable here of these students, especially when it comes after dental trump said it would be best to quote, just clean out the entire gallons a strip. some is really officials chump in similar plans. you may recall at the start of the war, however neighboring r, upstate, severe m

steve matting removing his shoes out of china, samsung leaving mexico to go into south carolina. a great day for what does he call it? the most beautiful word in the english language, tariff. >> dana: second most beautiful word, harold. >> harold: it's good to be back. you have not lost her fastball, jesse. i think that the president, i root for menace. i know that there are many in this country including the president who look to the markets and the u.s. equity markets as a barometer of how the country is doing and how the country is faring. and we get a scorecard at the end of the day about 4:00. we were down on session lows far worse than what the market closed out to answer that point. number two, the president is in his honeymoon still and i think that justin trudeau, and the president of mexico recognizes that. i will leave it for politico around both parties with 10,000 troops on the border, 10,000 in canada was worth the back and forth that they had. i am one that is glad that we got that. for justin trudeau also to acknowledge that fentanyl and they will label these cart

japan, uk from the so-called emerging donors, some call them -- china but also brazil, india, south africa, they fall into that category. one of the arguments go tradition donors like the united states they are the ones harm driven by the ethical considerations of the deep where as china, they are driven by political expediency. they use it as a part of their political agenda. spoiler spoiler. neither traditional donors know the merging once consistent follow any of this logic. again that was another or theoretical kind of reason for why we wanted to pursue this book. last but not least, i felt that the discourse about a is typically -- aid -- is typically disconnected from the broader context of ideas, norms and power relations. aid given to set take place in vacuum. a given, decisions about aid, they are part of a broader humanitarian decision, he mentioned regime has some written, some unwritten rules regulations, agencies, international institutions as well as ethics. and humanitarian regime itself with its premise of recognizing common shared humanity, restoring equal dignity and all individuals, it's part of a broader gl
