and the u. s. again came in as it did with ukraine in 2014 and said, oh yeah, we're going to destroy this relationship and would you get in return? nothing you get some promises from nancy pelosi. you take those to the bank, right. i again, trying to make sense. it is very difficult. andy, i'm going to be a little provocative right now. well, at the biden administration is walking away from the one china policy. so china can to, i mean it's kind of a get out of jail free card. okay. you, you don't, you want to adhere to it? why should beijing go ahead? well, this is a very complex, dangerous situation. peter. so the cornerstone of china us relations is taiwan and the taiwan policy, the one, the one trying to policy the one china principle. so i don't think that china would walk away. the issue here is this. i completely agree that there are parallels between the ukraine situation, the taiwan situation in that the u. s. is looking to use both as a proxy to contain those that it sees as an adversary.

sex university in the u. k. and also danny shore professor, blood american and caribbean studies at the city university of new york. many thanks gentlemen. tool. thank you. now the us secretary of state tour of africa is continuing with ra wanda, the latest stump, anthony blink. and see if the u. s. doesn't want to force the continent to pick sides. then geopolitical issues, african nations have been treated as instruments of other nations progress rather than the authors of their own. the united states will not dictate africa's choices and neither should any one else. well blinking to her followers halter on the heels of the russian foreign minister, a surrogate love rock, who just roughed up a meeting, read across that constant us official has been trying to rally support on the african mainland in an attempt to limit russia's legit creeping influence across the region, washington state forever. the south africans, foreign minister for walls of the country, had not come under any pressure from moscow. presiden

and the u. s. again came in as it did with ukraine in 2014 and said, oh yeah, we're going to destroy this relationship and would you get in return? nothing you get some promises from nancy pelosi, you know, take those to the bank right now. i'm a again, trying to make sense of it is very difficult. andy, i'm going to be a little provocative right now. well, at the biden administration is walking away from the one china policy. so china can to, i mean it's kind of a get out of jail free card. okay. you, you don't, you want to adhere to it? why should beijing go ahead? well, this is a very complex, dangerous situation. peter. so the cornerstone of china us relations is taiwan. and the taiwan policy, the one, the one china policy, the one china principle. so i don't think that china would walk away. the issue here is this. i completely agree that there are parallels between the ukraine situation and the taiwan situation in that the u. s. is looking to use both as a proxy to contain those that it sees

i know the u. s. recognizes that taiwan is part of china, though they could have some independent contact with, with taiwan. and it kind, you know, everybody, you know, parlayed and it works now. i think it stopped working here. so strategic ambiguity is turning into a negative thing. now go, head in hong kong for china was never an ambiguity. date a, china knew all along the long term plan. this is not the 1st time that the u. s. is going against the chinese sovereignty. and he just mentioned before in hong kong, the attempt of color revolution. hong kong was full sponsored back by the u. s. addition to that, they were financing e t i n the separate a, we goes in king john and a lot of them are actually terrorist or dial. emma has been financed by the c. i assume the 1950s. so you see, this is not the 1st time that the u. s. is meddling into chinese sovereignty. i like what just and he just mentioned before about hong kong. you see what happened in hong kong is that china as she used to set back t

yeah, it's taken on do u. s. in the korean war, if the u. s. is thinking that china bluff, it's making a huge mistake. i'm slew though. secretary lincoln has said that if nancy pelosi does visit and china responds, the responsibility for the escalation will lie entirely on beijing. how convincing is not argument well this the usual la rhetoric. busy i personally focus on action, there's lots of was actually being exchanged, especially coming from the u. s. side. they become not trustable. i would just focus on action. the single fact that l o z, nancy pelosi e might be on the island of taiwan. that that is a very dangerous escalation and we are, we are heading to was a hot war as, as any amount of time. it's still, it seems like it's no more like if it's more like a win alfred the u. s. has suffered a number of reputation said products in recent times from afghanistan to latin america, pushing back recently, saudi arabia not conceding to us. the models to increase production significantly in energy is pelosi visit. and the attempt to show that

while the u. s. department of justice claims they ran, attempted to murder former national security adviser, john bolton iranian hackers of also attempted online fishing operations on members of a u. s. non profit dedicated to stopping iran's nuclear capability. that's according to a new article in the online magazine dispatch. the threat existed from the very beginning. it's just gotten more and more pervasive. the threats to americans are multiple, pervasive, and systematic. i'm not aware of any time in our history that a hostile foreign government is systematically and pervasively targeting attacks on american soil against americans. meanwhile, justice department officials release documents that they say prove failed attempts to murder bolton. that's as iran cancel the demand that there is law mac revolutionary guard corps, be removed from the u. s. department's list of terrorist organizations, which signifies a step towards a new deal. christopher holly, political analysts and researcher says

i think the u. s. views every country as an asset or tool or a vehicle toward something else you. ukraine is discovered this, right, the us really push them into this war, which is a bit out or in the program here on our team during our special role in coverage. i discussed pelosi visit as high one as a part of her whole asia to the discussion with a corresponded ortiz, rachel blevins. hello. he's finally touched down there. you know, even even in the face of all of this rhetoric from china, hello, she apparently had to make a visit. what are your expectations now that she's here? you know, she released that statement right after she touched down and which she claim that she was there to support were she referred to as taiwan vibrant democracy. she also went as far as to say that she does not believe that she is in violation of the one china policy, which is absolutely not how beijing sees it is not what they have worn again and again, when it came to the lead up to this proposed visit now as far as

the u. s. military is good at the attacking sheepherders, but not a major power like china and i, i wonder if people in the pentagon and in their woke seminars are realizing this. go ahead, andy. well this is again i think what makes this saw such a grave and dangerous hydration because i think on the one hand of u. s. military of course recognizes the risk that it faces. every senior military official has said that the u. s. i cannot count on winning. of course the factors you mentioned that taiwan being so close to the mainland. trump said this as well, but also they need to consider the rapid advances that the players made over the last 20 or 30 years since the last high one straits crisis. also strategically, i'll use a bruce lee quote here. so bruce lee said, i do not fear the man who knows 10000 kicks, but i do fear the man who has practiced one kick, 10000 times. and with this means here is that the u. s. screens for missions all around the world in the middle east, in latin america i

and it wasn't just the u. s. the u. k. foreign office admitted last month and it made a number of mistakes in its own exit from the country. included on that list was the fact that the u. k. foreign secretary of the time was on holiday and didn't take the afghan foreign ministers call when he reached out for help with with the benefit of hindsight, of course, is he's disabled and i wouldn't have gone on holiday, let alone. and we've come home of the government, the u. s. had been propping up for nearly 2 decades, was also supported by an embassy that housed around $4000.00 diplomats contractors and staff who provided a false sense of confidence even though they were relying on the intent security provided by the u. s. military. but then again, they didn't invade afghanistan looking to learn about the country. instead, the mission they claim to half was to force american values on the people. and after 20 years, it has become clear that they still haven't learned about the country they occupied for so long. it also appea

now the u. s. c's little issue with the potential touched on, but beijing has labeled the move a breach of that. sovereignty will say so that we would like to warn the u. s. side once again, that the chinese site is ready. the chinese people's liberation army will never sit idly by and china will certainly take a resolute response and effect of countermeasures to safeguard its sovereignty and territorial integrity. and so if the speaker does decide to visit and china tries to create some kind of a crisis or otherwise escalate tensions, that would be entirely on beijing. he, a lot of developments are on this trip, including taiwan international report has strengthened security measures after receiving a bomb threat. it was a warning stating the 3 explosive devices would be placed in the building as time papers for a possible landing of palo seas plane on the map. here you can see the jets flying near the island territory. ah, well joining me live here in the she do as r t corresponding, rachel, b

and that's why the u. s. military has moved its own carrier into the area as a warning to trying to make clear they are ready to protect nancy pelosi but also that they are reaffirming that they're standing behind taiwan. but they're already regular. so many pools on that u. s. relationship with china, many observers here say that if this goes by, if this trip goes by without a serious retaliation from china without further military escalation, besides the drills that we've seen china carrying out a very close to taiwan in some saying, even in tie one's air space, if that is the past without another serious escalation, they believe that this could be a, perhaps just another irritant or another pull on that relationship, but that it will remain fairly frosty, between china and the us. the other reading, of course, is that we could see another escalation from china, further escalation, the u. s. responding. and we could see this, this relationship as i said, which is already is seen as frosty, descending eve

the u. s. warrens of increased risk to with citizens around the world after the killing of terrorist leader. i'm on our harry in afghanistan. ah, i'm pablo folly and he has welcome to the program. you as how speaker nancy pelosi has used her visit to taiwan to deliver a statement of solidarity, saying her country would do whatever it takes to boost ty, one's ability to defend itself. pelosi met with taiwan, president sy, in when, after earlier addressing the self governing islands parliament. she's the highest ranking us politician to visit taiwan in 25 years though. she's not there. as an official representative, pelosi ignored stark warnings from china, which views the island as its own territory. she said she supports the status quo and was bringing a message of peace. 43 years ago, with the taiwan relations at american, made a bedrock. to always jan with taiwan and on this on sunday, we had filter driving partnership, grounded in our shared values of self government and self determinatio

the u. s. says there were no other casualties. the u. s. of long insisted. there's a relationship between the taliban and al qaeda. but taliban leaders have denied that. now with this killing and downtown cobble, it will be difficult at the very least, to deny that a fraction of the government dropped it out to a safe haven. think this is a proud moment for joe biden, tempered only by the fact that it took place in cobble which thus raises the spectre of the withdraw from afghanistan. and of course, the terrorist organizations clearly reestablishing themselves or that the attack took place, just as the afghan government is in negotiations to free $3500000000.00 in foreign reserves. it desperately needs to feed its people. there's also a focus of some and i'm, i would where joe biden is in need of good news to quell domestic critics of, of handling of the u. s. economy, and following a trip to the middle east received mixed reviews. the white house is clearly relishing this news. she advertised the al jazeera washington. this is where that drones strike happe

the u. s. senators. very often believe that individually. ready or many that all the world and then ship that addiction which the world would go. now they will take a moral high ground to say that they are the defenders of human rights. look at the issue of racism in the next 2 years. have you been able to solve my 1st a 10 to their own problems? look at the shooting that constantly in schools in more than streets. innocent people are being children are being killed. but there's no consciousness of this. even if some other countries yeah. can point out all these things to the united states, you know, they don't control the international information is controlled by the west and his agency. so this is all kind of a posturing and show and embarrassing in the best of use that against us. and behind this, let me tell you, is our position on the ukraine crisis. they are very unhappy that we haven't condemned russia. we haven't voted against russia. and this is one way that certain lobbies in the uni

u. s. to class the death of the alleged mastermind of the $911.00 attack. my direction. united states successfully concluded nurse try and keyboard can stand and kill the mirror, a little card. to him on our president joe biden says, a drones try, can the afghan capital killed the reclusive terrorist? come on that also coming up tensions over a possible stop. over in taiwan, taiwan, government sources say us how speak and nancy pelosi will visit the island during asia. trip. china has threatened a military response. the white house says beijing is overreact. ah, i'm and you can see mckinnon. welcome to the program. the united states says that it has killed the leader of al qaeda. i am anal though a harry and a drone strike in afghanistan. he was one of the founders of the terrorist group and had been in hiding for more than a decade. u. s. official said the cia carried out an operation on sunday, targeting the man they believe was central to planning the $911.00 attacks in the heart of t

she is completely disregarding counseling from the u. s. u. s. military leaders council not to go, because the wrong time me and she completely disregarded the repeated waldis by the chinese government. because china says our visit will hollow out the one china policy will be in violation of the one china policy and will really cause more damage to china us relations. so she is today and tonight she troublemaker in the whole world because she disregarded sanity judgment. and the rash analogy in pursuing her personal goals in taiwan. whether she wanted to use this visit to hide the fact or the husband is appearing cold in the united states. that's another matter. but i think people in this part of the world, people on both sides of the tower straight, do not want to see nancy pelosi because she does not have and the legitimate business in the try, not area. even the cross straight relation is what she breathes is only bad news and disaster she made really grow a big wedge in the china, us relations on the white hands and in the cross street rel

s. occupation the u. s. a war on iraq, the u. s. imposed constitution in iraq, which every ministry, every line item in the budget controlled by a different political party, a different force. it was set up to keep the iraqi people divided dysfunctional and unable to form a cohesive government. so this has been a long struggle to get the us out. it's hundreds of thousands of troops that were there in occupation from troops. the contractors, mercenaries, every form possible and still today in iraq and still today consciously being horse of vision. they really have, they grow the secular constitution and previously existed in iraq and set up the structure intended to keep people completely divided and fighting among themselves is called dividing rule. it's away, us strive, energy functions and countries around the world. it's the plans that they have from russia to china or the french, and pose in lebanon, or something, syria and again, and again, it's how to keep people local people at each other's throats, fighting each other ove

the u. s. claims that china and russia's attempts to strengthen ties in the region are solely motivated by self interest. though the secretary of state emphasized at washington will not dictate to african countries how to behave. the document however, contains a list of recommendations on how to tackle acute problems, such as the crone of virus. pandemic, climate change, global food insecurity and terrorism. and while the u. s. a still trying to convince everyone that rushes actions in ukraine are the root of all troubles. the african public seems to find more faith in ties with bricks, countries than the west. america has been playing with us for a long time. it's now time for, for bricks to grow. i think more african countries encouraged to be better off the brakes. and you can see did you feel of 19, so love rica. i'm shoe ice also, spinoza, roma, joining that club. you have such developed countries know like your, your china show region could assist other countries in terms of having to

and it wasn't just the u. s. the u. k. foreign office admitted last month and it made a number of mistakes in its own exit from the country. and on that list was the fact that the u. k. foreign secretary at the time was on holiday and didn't take the afghan foreign ministers call when he reached out for help with with the benefit of hindsight, of course, it's easy to say, but i wouldn't have gone on holiday, let alone. and we've come home on the government, the u. s. had been propping up for nearly 2 decades, was also supported by an embassy that housed around $4000.00 and diplomats contractors and staff who provided a false sense of confidence even though they were relying on the intent security provided by the u. s. military. but then again, they didn't invade afghanistan looking to learn about the country. instead, the mission they claim to half was to force american values on the people. and after 20 years, it has become clear that they still haven't learned about the country they occupied for so long. it also appea

a u. s. official says i am unable to why harry was identified on multiple occasions. spending time on the balcony of the house where he was eventually struck early on sunday morning. now we have eliminated the mirror of al qaeda. he will never again, never again allow of kingston to become a teacher. so shaven because he is gone and we're going to make sure nothing else happens. you know, i can't be a launching providence united states. we're going to see to that won't happen. the gyptian bones a why harry was osama bin laden's, right hand man before lay to succeeding him as head of al qaeda. the u. s. says he was actively involved in planning the september 11th attacks in the us, as well as other al qaeda operations, including 2 u. s embassy bombings in east africa in 1998. and the attack on the u. s. s. cole warship in yemen, in 2000. following the strike that killed him, the taliban accused the u. s. a violating international principles and the door agreement. but for the americans, it'

the u. s. department of defense has not ruled out that ukrainian forces are firing near the territory according to media reports. that's a mid one sided, western media coverage of the situation. although russia says it's ready to provide evidence of ukraine's actions. meanwhile, residents of this approach, it region are asking the i 8 to stop key of shelling of the plant which is endangering the safety of millions of lives. we spoke to steve gill, a radio host and political commentator, who says that the west is perfectly aware of who's shelling the plant. it's just not in their interest to confirm it. from the beginning, the u. s. media has really kind of advocated any journalistic integrity in covering this conflict, which is why you've seen propaganda from both sides get a lot of play and not a lot of journalists on the ground reporting what's actually going on the i. e. a should be there immediately. i mean, there should be an all hands on deck. death on 5 kind of level of getting people

ah, members of u. s. congress have been asked to approve a financial aid package worth millions of dollars for india, with the legislatures research service suggesting the assistance could be linked to improvements in the countries human rights. however, new delhi has not sent a plea for any such american help. the biden administration requests $117000000.00 in foreign assistance to india for the financial year of 2023. congress could consider whether or not condition so all of such aid on improvements in human rights and civil liberties in india. the biden administration's request was made a month after u. s. a. i d chief samantha power travel to new delhi, a visit which saw her call out beijing's opaque loans deals while praising india as an impactful development leader. then america's human rights concerns about india were not mentioned, despite much previous criticism from american officials, west new delhi repeatedly rebuke fighting its constitution had safeguards to ensure democratic practices. a

the u. s. spent 1000000000 supporting and afghanistan, of course pushes and using master class to finally be honest with the public. instead, he does that when he's delivering a paid speech and he includes the 40 and slip of the century. in his 2010 memoir, bush made the comment, we got things wrong in iraq, but the cause is eternally right. although nearly 20 years later, the public is left to wonder whether that cause was for those who stood to profit off of the conflict. because it certainly wasn't for the well being of the iraqi people. and when it comes to bush and his leadership abilities, he's not the only one who has walked free after accusations that he was complicit in a host of war crimes. that seems to be the standard for every member of his administration who sold belie of w and d 's. and for the overwhelming majority of military members who indiscriminately killed civilians even when they were caught laughing about the lives they had just taken on camera, a lead individuals wit

the u. s. treasury department has said it would not be a violation of un sanctions for individuals to wind down their positions. bank of america has sent a note to investors saying the trades would be for those seeking to dispose of their russian holdings. the u. s. ramped up at sanctions against moscow after russia began its military campaign and ukraine in february, with many western banks withdrawing from russia and deals in the nation's assets being halted. jack ross moves and in economics and politics professor at st. mary's college in california says them move, exposes a loophole in the u. s. sanction regime. what it represents is that the sanctions are for holes and oftentimes even than the u. s. government as a lift and temporarily perhaps, but and unless lifts them law in notches, gas and natural gas in oil in europe. but they be surprised how much of the industrial commodities i have had the exemptions, especially for american corporations who need nickel and some of the other ra,

u . s. energy secretary jennifer granholm has instructed the nation's top refiners, including exxon shelby p and chevron, to refrain from exporting fuel at a time when america is european allies are in deep need, given the historic level of u. s. refined product exports. i again urge you to focus in the near term on building inventories in the united states, rather than selling down current stocks and further increasing exports. granholm sighted quote, historically low inventory levels of gasoline and diesel in parts of the country as the justification for looking out for america's interests. first, the last thing, the biden and the democratic party need right now heading into the november mid term elections is a fuel shortage. that risks handing victory to the republicans, brussels was led straight down the garden path by washington and sanctioning its own cheap gas supply from russia. recalled back on june 27th, that the e u and the white house issued a joint statement saying that they
