u. s. economies hurting an awful lot right now. and so if you were to put tariffs on china who's going to absorb the cost of that u. s. consumers are, they're the ones who are going to pay the price for it. so there's not a whole lot you can do right now. and that's why i mentioned the caring of the stick. at this point you got to pull out a lot more carrots than you do sticks and not to a to mention if, if we look at the supply chain constraints that we are seeing worldwide with ports being backed up and the like, especially ahead of what is going to be a busy holiday season as inflation ramps up. i mean, it's hard to see how adding any more tariffs or any more economic woes into that is going to help the american people. right. oh i'm know about it in that of course also includes this gina semiconductor and what happened from there. and now ben, before we go, i went ahead on one more topic the as far as talking about us china relations, we have seen some de escalation of tensions between the us and china with the deferment of prosecution gets may 1 joe of why way is that

and so that the chinese don't seem to be as eager to meet with the u. s. as the u. s. is to meet with china on a whole variety of issues, tie ones, one of them, but also just on trade. and in terms of what is happening with, you know, kind of new carrot versus stick measures being taken to say, how do we keep china in light? the chinese don't seem to be anxious. and on that trade note, catherine tire the us trade representative chair. so kind of laid out the whole policy towards china ahead of these talks out of the new policies, or how to the policies of the biden administration. that is to say, affect the phase one trade deal made under the trump administration between us and china. yet will remember that phase one trade deal between the u. s. and china that was made under trump, you know, had all kinds of cookie things in it, including a demand for china to buy $200000000000.00 worth of agricultural goods, more than what they had paid in the previous year. china's not doing that, they hadn't been doing their have 30 percent behind on that. and so, but, but what do you do about it? i mean

u. s. and china in so that foreign ministers, anthony blinking and y e have been meeting in the last hour or so. here in rome, the state department giving us that view on that meeting, which they says say we're candid and clearly one of the main issues they were discussing were the tensions in the taiwan straits. certainly, blinking recorded the sight department told y v that the u. s. was unhappy with the increased tension in the taiwan strait in terms of other meetings. very soon we're going to have a meeting between president biden present, one of turkey and again, a u. s. government official saying that the plan for this meeting is to avoid crises between the 2 countries in the future. and that may well be a reference to what we saw earlier this month when the turkish president decided to make 10 ambassadors persona non grata, including the us ambassador. so the meeting, i think it's trying to improve relations between those 2 countries and one other difficult relationship right now the u. k. and france post breakfast rouse over fishing writes, we believe is going to be a short pl aside

maintaining freedom of navigation in the east china and south of china, seas and south china sea, in se asia has become quite a strategic battle ground between the u. s. and china. china especially has claimed large parts of the south china sea and the competing claims between all the members and china schools in uganda have been closed for more than a year and a half because of the pandemic that's longer than anywhere else in the world, according to the u. n. in the absence of education, some children say their only option now is to dig for gold in mines, which are again, b explains. at the morrow, mine and eastern uganda, 17 year old mateus is digging for gold. he says, if he doesn't find any, he doesn't get paid. if you come by give it run at that jazz. who are not good again, you go back home. now sometimes you get a little money like you or do and then those are 10000. you can't in shillings is the equivalent of around $2.80. schools and uganda had been closed since march 2020 . shortly after the 1st case of cove 19 was confirmed on the african continent. some classes reopened in february this year, but shut down again 4 months later as the coun

u. s. and china is extremely high, especially over territory around taiwan. watson and north korea has restarted testing its missile systems. he, sheila has indicated he's, consider encountering this regional tension with more force breaking with his countries defensive only military posture. some feel it might not be enough. he she that mentioned just loose and lee that japan might need to develop strike capability rather than defensive capability by anti massage defense. japan has that capability. but what if ah, does country like north korea hass not only one chalk, a stick and chalk that had chalk of messiah? what's it been fun to do? it addressing the relationship with the regions top power, china kesha focused on stability and dialogue. you go through ha on did it is important to build stable ties with china for both countries and the region as well as the international community. while working with countries with which we share universal values, we say what needs to be said to china and demand family that it behave responsibly . we also will maintain di

u. s. and china, over telecom technology and infrastructure ended along with the trump administration? well, think again, in fact, the federal communications commission has now voted to block china telecom americas from the u. s. market saying the u. s. subsidiary of china. chinese state on enterprise is, quote, subject to exploitation, influence and control by the chinese government. so what does this vote by the fcc mean and what happens next? let's bring in, boom, boom, coast and investigative journalist, ben swan, to discuss been breakdown this really for us. what does this mean? yeah. why is central, what it means is that this company has 60 days to start up, stop operating in the united states. right. which is pretty interesting. so there's 2 republicans in 2 democrats on this committee and they voted unanimously with a 4 to 0 vote. and basically what they're doing is they're going to revoke, and then terminate china telecoms section $214.00 authority to operate inside the united states, which essentially means they can't operate at all. and you know, we've talked about this for s

she named me and mar ethiopia, which is a new target of u. s. empire as well as iran and china. she did not refer to facebook working with any u. s. allies to carry out malicious activities. this is an extension of the narrative we've been hearing since the russia gate saga began. the real issue, the gravamen, the, the $64000.00 question is one of our people and coating a former president of the united states who are excluded. an expert gated bowdlerized from any kind of public conversation because of who he is. that's the issue. i may ask you some, one of you were on your phone on your mo bile and you said something politically piquant and all the sudden your phone went dead because your carriers as far, we don't like that. that's a hate speech. and you say you're the phone company, you don't, you don't monitor what i say. well, that's what we have to look at these companies as utilities, they will shut you down merely because you're oh pining and expressing in a an opinion. that's what they never talked about. that's the reason that's what i wanted to hear. that was never addre

and b, u. s. u s. and china. so that's, i think, actually a very mundane, ordinary life to actually survival. the species promote the brand of milan of a to thank you. thank you very much. it was a pleasure talking to that's over the show will be back on wednesday, 51 years of the day of the f. b i. the rest of activist angela davis cooled a dangerous terrorist by president nixon. you can watch your interview on going underground, allow you to channel until then keep in touch with our social media. let us know what you think. the chinese economic model, good fight inequality. nato nation, when i was a kid and engagement with so many find themselves will support. we choose to look for common ground. ah, it was the month basically, but i still bagley's go. he did. who bought? i bought a dial. tomato, a couple of pretty then you know, quite by that i was from politicians to athletes and movies. does the musicals does it seems every big name in the world has been here last year? hope of misuse. marcus goes to school. oh and when you get the go for anything with what does not give me a glover new

and the u. s. secretary of state. and that was important because this was the highest level meeting between the u. s. and china that has taken place since the beginning of the year was still being told is likely to be some sort of virtual summit between the 2 most powerful men in the world present. she and president biden before the end of the year, but certainly in the meeting that they had here in the last couple of hours, they said that they could work together on issues like me on my the climate have kind of storm north korea, iran, but a state department official said there was serious concerns about other issues close at home to china, places like taiwan in china and she, john and tibet, hong kong and east and sort of east and south china. see the u. s. opponent expressed its concern. that's about all those issues and about human rights in china. the 2 countries agreeing to work together. but knowing that on some issues they can work together and other issues. they have very, very different views. james, to be flying, the wall for that meeting. thank you very much for the update james. bye live for us in

u. s. and china remains unclear as both u. s. and chinese officials are meeting in europe. so perhaps for now, it appears china's actions are more a strong message than a signal that it's preparing for war. but taiwan remains concerned. none the less that china's actions will ultimately speak louder than its words. for news use hughes john honey. okay, fulton, joining me now to talk about this very serious situation is from a navy intelligence officer, john jordan. john, good to see you up. a was very sobering to hear the foreign minister of taiwan say that if, if this situation with china results in war, taiwan will fight to the very end. there's just something about hearing those words . well, certainly of in such a war, china would have to be the aggressor would have to be a chinese for amphibious, forced entry assault on the island of taiwan. a country of 24000000 people or an island of 24000000 people go to the one china policy. yeah, it's 24000000 people do not apparently want to live under the rule of the chinese communist party. so it's not surprising. the said they

and more are going to. so at this point that you know, china in the u. s. are going out in different ways. china is talking about economics and the u. s. is always about security. but you know, i have a question. there's this idea. there was one of my compatriots there and said, depending on the us for defense, defense, what, who is going to invade europe? who is going to invade australia? you know that over 50 percent of the people in australia have been convinced by the media that they might be invaded by china. i mean, anybody who knows try, sees what they have. it knows that that would be virtually impossible. second, there be absolutely no appetite for trying to doesn't want more people. they have quite a bit quite enough as it is. and they certainly don't want to go to foreign lands and take on the headache of ruling other people. that's not to say that they obviously the europeans took that challenge under their wing quite some time ago and that didn't work out very well either. so at this juncture, i mean no one can make abner chelsea. i understand y

and that's the same thing. true for the u. s. u in china, closing and not $600000000000.00 and trade china is the use are just trading are now it's applied to the west. and now they're talking about how they can rain in china, how they can change china. i just doesn't make a lot of sense this idea of having military tactics or directions against your largest rate, or i think it just, it is from mixing. and that's, that's really what it is. but we live in a, you know, kind of post hypocritical age and i, you started thinking about it here in one sense, we're about 226. everyone's concerned about china's, you know, making a commitment to getting. 5 5 you know, coal down and they are say they're going to stick to the long term goals, but there's a fluctuation right now because it, but on the other hand, your pin is, are absolutely concerned that china will not be able to supply enough of title interior goals. for cars, because why they haven't had enough electricity because they're not now having to burn coal. so on one hand, they say, oh, we

the last 4 events now, but member states of ozzy and have said they don't want to have to choose between china and us. these are 2 big giants, and the u. s. has been a traditional long term allied for some of the member states, but china geographically is in the region. and china is also a very important trading partner for these. for, for all these countries, now be often some, it is also taking place against the backdrop of a new security pack that's just been inc. this is the trilateral packed known as orcus. it's between the u. s. u. k. and australia for security in the india pacific region and member states have already expressed consent. some member states have expressed concerns about a possible security build up in the region. so i think that's going to be on the agenda as well. so it's many thanks. so florence reed, i live in quite a long time. well, debbie, debbie start hot is the founder and coordinator of the alternative se i'm network on. but she says that i see an attitude, the shocks, the military joint in the law, but more needs to be done to avoid a regional humanitarian crisis. the main concern, bossier, is that we are

u. s. and china over things like taiwan on the south, china sea, et cetera. it seems ridiculous that the climate change conference should be affected by that particular power play going on in global politics, but it will be and you can't take that out of the mix. it's just what it is. so the fact that president putin is not going to turn up for the conference is hardly surprising, given russia is one of the most intransigent hold out countries when it comes to a climate consensus. it's no question about that, but it is troublesome to the world as a whole because we can't get the breakthroughs we need without the family of nash coming together in a shared solidarity. it's impossible. so probably not a good time to be selling more ships to china's maritime borders. right now. you a, some british warships and whatever's happening in the don't bass worse. johnson's government, i know, you said this is the bus and it's a quite an amazing record on renewables. he was talking about recycling not being that important via the other day seems more environmentally consc

u. s. and china remain in the number of areas that you countries could soon be working together on a deal that would address both skyrocketing fuel prices and power shortages in asia . that's according to a new report from reuters, that at least 5 major chinese energy companies are in advanced talks with us ex borders to secure long term liquefied natural gas supplies. while us gas exports to china briefly came to a standstill back in 2019 as a result of the trade war between the 2 countries. the lead to a 25 percent tariff, the latest talks, are bringing about hopes that they will lead to tens of billions of dollars and deals over the next decade. china's demand for natural gas at an all time high at the start of this year, while washington's liquefied natural gas exports to asia also skyrocketed in 2020. now the goal appears to be to secure both immediate supply and long term deals. as the world looks to avoid the very energy crunch it is seeing right now. and i know that whenever it came to the binding ministration, coming in the office, there were a lot of questions about what he was going

u. s. and china at least one type of answer. do you see that as the case? yes, i do. and we are strong supporter of this idea because it's also like maybe historically, a very convincing idea to, to unite this great economic area. and by building infrastructure, by building interconnectivity, helping to, to stabilize also multi polar global world order. when this area comes together, we signed as the initiative signed onto the initiative for a common economic space from this a bond of law, he was stuck. and i do believe that is a great idea worth pursuing. and that's why we're here. well, that's the, the great, your asian partnership, isn't it, that stretches from the atlantic to the pacific. but is it even possible considering countries do appear to be increasingly putting their own priorities 1st on perhaps thinking less about the bigger picture? well, in the, in the short term maybe you see developments that make you doubt. but i do believe that you know, the economic hardships that we're facing will teach everyone a lesson. so in mid and long term i, i hope and we'

u . s. and china also on the agenda is a proposal to set up an e u gas reserve for the block. and the economic collapse in afghanistan, venezuela has reopened its land border crossing with colombia after it was closed nearly 3 years ago. it was shut down after the village. venezuelan opposition attempted to bring in humanitarian aid from columbia. present. nicholas, my daughters said the shipment was part of a u. s. blonde to overthrow his government. nearly $330000.00 children were victims of sexual abuse at the hands of the french catholic church over 70 years as the finding of an independent commission, which as the church showed cool indifference to victims and british envoy is the 1st official from europe to meet with the taliban in cab or since their takeover of afghanistan. salmon gas discuss how britain could help of gunnison addressed to humanitarian crisis. and authorities on the spanish island of la palmer is stepping up surveillance of the routine volcano after part of the crater collapse. eruption is becoming more explosive, causing significant damage to property a

and that goes for both the china and the us, because the u. s. still has not lifted the billions of dollars on trade terrorists on china, even though that it's hampering the u. s. economy and growth and consumers end up paying for that. and just recently the u. s. fcc revoke the license on china telecom on tuesday. so there actually is a slight escalation rather than a reconciliation going into this meeting. so while it's a great idea for everybody to try to work together, it's easier said than done as that was not a friendly gesture toward the country whom you're trying to build a relationship with. and work with seems to be politics as usual, especially with the binding ministration, kind of falling in line with what the trump administration did before. now, speaking of agreements going into effect ban. we know that one of the big items which many consider is a victory going into the g. 20 is what appears to be a consensus on a global minimum tax. is this truly on the verge of being implemented? well, it looks like that it is. i mean, we're talk

china. and could it be hands strong, looking ahead as the u. s. looks to counter china, how do you think that's going to play out? the situation becomes more and more difficult, or in particular, if we see something like a 2nd cold war between the united states and china. so it would be a huge problem for german exporters, but not only for exporters, but for corporates in general, because china today is already very important production up of, for germany based or companies. and therefore, it would be extremely difficult. and if for german companies would face a situation where they have to decide between making business with the u. s. are making business with china and therefore they will try to find a way to reconcile the one with the other. but the situation is becoming more difficult than it has been in the past. this is for sure. how do you say angela merkel? the legacy? how do you think she'll be reminded? it's a difficult question. no chance in a couple of seconds early. so to put it in nutshell, i would say that as a crisis managers, she di

and china. and also just this whole colonial asian act. it's, it's really is erie, how many people are in the u. s. and also you about the subject brand. i mean it's, it's a truism that the u. s. arms industry always needs an enemy and it always needs threat inflation. and of course, china's in line now here. ok, i get that. ok, and the jingo is think, attitude, you get and cable tv about the time to threaten all that. but when i look at europe here, i mean, how does europeans feel out way? i mean, they want to really sell out a lot of money for armaments and things like that for an enemy that doesn't even exist geographically for them, at least all the way on the other side of the world. i mean, if they don't want to cough up money for nato to confront russia, why would they do it for china? go ahead, brand. i think for europeans, this is a really open question and, and then the next few weeks we will see exactly where the european union is going to stand on the issue of the emerging cold war from the united states against china . because the foreign policy chief justice burrell is working on the so called strategic company. and this i

china relationship at the moment. it was discussed, for example, the issue of human rights and the u. s. alleging i try and the carrying out human rights abuses in particular with regard to the treatment of the ethnic minority wiggers and also discuss the issue of a china's relationship with ty, one, it's increasingly aggressive attitude towards tie one as the u. s. puts it at the national security advisor, pointing out at his said during the meeting that china flew some 50 war claims over taiwan on monday alone. so all of these issues were discussed. but the main point of that meeting between the 2 senior advisors, national security advisor and china's chief senior foreign policy advisor was to pave the way for that discussion between the 2 presidents. this is now a key issue significantly in that meeting as well as in the course of that meeting at china, made very clear that point that it does not see itself as a competitor. but also made clear that meeting would appear is the u. s. as insistence is where it differs from the trump administration in terms of forging a policy that inclu

u. s. vessel came as russia and china were conducting joint naval exercises. a russian military ship warned the u. s. destroyer about the quote in up miss ability of such actions. the message was ot's 1st met with resistance with the u. s. signaling it was in the middle of a helicopter launch from his deck and unable to change course before, eventually abiding by the command. the russian defense ministry. call the incident . a severe violation of international rules. transport workers in italy are threatening strike action over a new coven. green pass system starting today. friday, all workers have to show proof of vaccination or a negative cobit test, or go without pay. ah, the government's decision comes despite a relatively low nationwide infection, rid of $3000.00 per day on right, 40 daily debts among those unhappy about the grandpa system or workers at wall of europe's major. which intrigues you 1000 protesters gathered, they're threatening to disrupt the ports. operation, the vaccination rates among its workers is 40 percent on those still not inoculated

clear that it's necessary for them to talk to each other, to try and lower what has been an immense amount of tension between china and the u . s. at the u. s. phases at, in terms of competition. this is a word that china says it does not like it is seeking, it says, a good relationship with the u. s. as it stands at the moment. president biden has now made clear that he will continue the policies instituted by his predecessor, in particular that agreement that was reached in january last year. the so called phase one agreement, in terms of which china made certain commitments which president biden says, he is now going to insist that china meets also staying in place. so other straight tariffs that president trump, then president trump, imposed no sign that the u. s. administration is going to change that there despite repeated calls from a number of businesses who are believe i'd be suffering from that particular trade tariff, a policy that was instituted by the trump administration. so very important though, from both leaders to keep the lines of communication open to avoid any misunderstandings that it is put that might occ

u. s. germany and china all arrivals will still need to show negative coven 19 test results. prime minister, pri, you'd, china, chair, says he'll consider lifting the nighttime curve. u. m. n of alcohol sales in the capital bank cog by the ne. experts at india's drug regulator, a recommending the emergency use of co vixen on children above the age of 2. that's a locally made cove at 19 vaccine. the drug makers say clinical trials have shown it's safe and effective to use on that age. group tests were conducted from may and to last month and more than $500.00 children before this week's review by the regulators panel. it's the 1st vaccine in india to be recommended for the use in children under 12 years old. and utility companies in india being urged to import coal because of a shortage of fuel producers will now have to bring in up to 10 percent of their coal. despite having the world's 4th largest reserves. india's supply can no longer keep up due to the pandemic related demand for power and electricity. the u. k. bricks, it ministers says the northern ireland protocol is doing more harm t

and the u. s. for us and china. so it does, i think actually that's kind of applications are very mundane or didn't a real life to actually survival. the species promote the brand going on of it. thank you. thank you very much. it was a pleasure talking to you that's over the shout will be back on wednesday, 51 years to the day of the f. b. i's arrest of activist angela davis. cold, a dangerous terrorist by president nixon. you can watch our interview on going underground, allow you to our channel until then keep in touch with our social media and let us know whether you think the chinese economic model, good fight inequality, nato nations. ah ah, what else was the most basic book that i see you back please go. he did. who bought? i bought a dial tomorrow. a couple of pretty than, you know, quite but i know from politicians to athletes and movies does to musicals, does it seems every big name in the world has been here? let's see, or hope of ms. euclid corpus christi school. oh, what do i see? a button when you get

us wants to keep china's border with janice, n as unsafe as possible, and a constant worry by tacitly endorsing. for the very least turning a blind to i, the terrorist groups, and the u. s. and the u. k. m is supporting separatist movements in china going back decades. this is all part of america strategy to mess with china, create chaos, divide and conquer. but the united states is making a huge mistake once again. dislike they back the majority in the 1980s to fight soviet. now they're implicitly backing you the terrorists in order to fight the chinese. and, you know, there comes a point where you really have to understand that backing jihadists is not a good idea. there is nothing beneficial about someone's blowing themselves up and committing a terrorist attack. i mean, this is incredible. how many times is it gonna take for the united states to realize that backing which i, dean and of gannon, stan or anywhere for that matter is a really bad idea. they did it in the 1980s. they back been loudon. it came back to bite them. it always does, and this is no exception. earlier we asked a political analyst, chris bemberry, and anti war activist brian becker, what the amer

and more divergent. so the u. s. is focusing more on china and asia, and thus it's shifting both its resources and it said already, accordingly, i was very obviously obvious with sabrina dealer with australia, by the way. so when the us so years will give less to europe, but ask for more in terms of asking you to, for example, come from china. and this is where i'm out of the tensions are these like a common interest and when you're peanuts the way, i think they do have a dilemma one hand, they seek to maintain the relevant to the u. s. by, for example, accepting but nato should also be an anti chinese lives. however, no matter what they do with this will be very superficial in temporary because china's too far waiting in the segment. nothing else. a threat to the european union to the same extent pregnancy dominance in the asia pacific. so it's also the problem for the used by joining this u. s. chris, a crusade against both the russia and the chinese. the u. s. isolated south because it becomes less able to diversify pies and thus successiv

the big changes that's happened is the, in china's immersion says, largest economy in the world by, you know, some measures. and it's certainly equal to the u. s. by any measure. and so the problem here is that china's economy is incredibly to dependent on building new high rises in new residential towers by to hundreds or thousands. and of course, these are a massive development use, a huge amount of concrete and copper and iron and all those kind of resources. and so if you're building like $70000000.00 units per year or 2, you're going to dominate the global supply chains, right? and, and so in china is kind of put the world in a vice, as well as their own economies. because if they stop building those tens of millions of units, their economy falters and, and then you get a supply chain shock of suddenly there's reduce demand and then the price craters and then producers can't make a profit. so they just let the copper or sit there in the mind, razor they, if you can't make a profit, then you're not going to produce the copper. and so then you get a shortage from a collapse of, of price. right? i guess put this into perspective. you know, c

she named me and mar ethiopia, which is a new target of u. s. empire as well as iran and china. she did not refer to facebook working with any u. s. allies to carry out malicious activities. and that counter espionage unit is actually part of a facebook's threat intelligence division led by ben nimmo, who has been prolific in whipping up the threat of so called russian bots and russian meddling through facebook. so this is an extension of the narrative we've been hearing since the russia gate saga began. what impact say a thing had testimony will happen? social media regulation, if any. she just wants more government intervention. so i think the impact we're going to see going forward is more censorship, more intervention from the intelligence services, and the reorientation of these social media sites. to target official u. s. enemies per her recommendation. today mark's 20 yes. as the u. s. and his allies invaded afghanistan, toppling they taliban regime. and now in the waco the west and pull out many questions are still being asked. not least why and a ton of been offered to h
