china. do you see any shift in u. s. b u. s. position on china as a result of this lecture? yeah, well, is this in contrast to russia on china? the republicans to the democrats is often said that is pretty much the only sort of bipartisan issue and u. s. policies right now is being tough on china. this goes back to trump. he was launched the trade war against china, but biden is really kind of picked up on this whole. his line is pretty much senses across the political spectrum that the u. s. needs to be tough on china that china's rise is a threat potentially to, to us interest. so if you have a different dynamic within this new congress of the 2 sides more trying to sort out bid each other for a peer in appearing tougher rather than potentially watering things down. as with the case with russia and many country looked countries look to the u. s. for leadership in dealing with climate change, the dressing, the global warming, we've seen changes between the trump administration, the bottom ministration with respect, climate change. do you think these elections that we're see

u. s. and china met. when you look at the relations between the 2, under trump, there were toughs imposed against china and then in 2022 that ships on science. i was imposed against china under the, by the administration, which basically covers advanced technology to manufacturing, to move back to the united states of america. on the other hand, the russian, the chinese seem to be really preoccupied by where the considered as a gressick pushed by the americans when it comes to tie one. is this something that could create more problems for the g 20 in the future of this is something separate bilateral, between just the u. s. on china? well, i think these bilateral issues often lead over into the multilateral forums. so don't be surprised if it comes up again, and it's always kinda, there is a little metal. but i do think these again offer an opportunity for international leaders come together where they don't have to set up a specific bilateral meeting with all the pressures that come from a bilateral meeting in terms of being able to produce results. this gives especially in these kind of opportunities to kind of soften back into th

u. s. concern about china, china's growing global clout to, to supper things here. which one is the top biotech for the united states of america? what and ukraine or china is going roll? well, you know, i think the country like united states is going to have to have multiple top priorities in china. certainly is an equal priority to the issues going on in eurasia at the same time when you start talking about insecurity related to nuclear potential. nuclear weapons, as i mentioned earlier, that grabs your immediate attention. i like but denise was saying here, 20 meetings are more than just the communicate. they're more than just what the collective is talking about. they are about these bilaterals. they are about a lot of opportunities for world leaders to get outside their countries and to talk to other world leaders and to get a different perspective. and that's why, again, the g 20 brings more of these leaders to the table allows them to see the world in a different perspective. so for me, what's really important about this summit is these meetings between the chinese and

so what 2 countries in the region, one from the u. s. and china relationship so the primary thing that they want is for the 2 major powers to get along mean to say that there's no escalation, that they don't get into some sort of conflict of prolong tension. but i think to avoid friction. the countries are realistic enough to realize that they can't affect that by this point. if there is some ability to cooperate on the economy, to make sure that china and the u. s. going to shut each other off. i think that's a plus, but it needs to be realism to recognize that those sorts of possibilities may be dema today than before. let's talk about realism and this is something that maybe people give china credit for because china has grown to become one of the key trading partners for many southeast asian nations. one thinks of cambodia and lois, for instance. and then of course the japan and indonesia, the trade with these countries as well. how does the u. s. counter this influence? so that's a little bit misleading because trade in goods, definitely chin

china going hold of michael trips from the irs and its allies like taiwan? i or probably too many reasons for this. the 1st one is because the military competition between the u. s. and china, as a lot of people know allied, have like on jet fighter as marseilles in also some battleships need these powerful micro chips in order to work. so the u. s. as probably are trying to prevent china from getting these cutting age micro trips to draven is military power. and secondly, is probably because of the economy. ah, and as you know, a lot of indo tree rely on semiconductors in these chips. so the u. s. is very likely to or are prevent on china to get these on a vans computer chips such as g as in says, products into our brain is technology to the next level. also, the meeting of years was in biden and dirt. china's leadership on the sidelines or the g 20 summit seems so signal and easing of tensions of bar taiwan as those been a boost to local investment settlement. ah, yes fur, to be honest, is not a very significant boost on after the 2 liters. matt, the overall stock market in taiwan, only rails by one percent. it's similar to what happened when she didn't pick,

china and the u. s. have previously held informal talks on climate change, but she says the u. s. suspended those negotiations. woman son. whoa. who made sure we announced the suspension of the china us climate talks, but the responsibility lies totally on the us side. the u. s. breach the sign o u. s. joint communicate. so we hope the u. s. takes the initiative to clear the barriers. this is trying to start. the responsibility doesn't lie on china side. but on the u. s. sorry about the war. senegal has suffered what's potentially a huge set back with well kept just 11 days away. it's been reported that their main man said, your money is out of the tournament. the senegalese purple association is closely assessing the situation. actually, the reigning african player of the year, suffered and knocked to his chin while playing for by munich on tuesday. the forward couldn't continue and was replaced 20 minutes since the match.

know that the results of this mid term election media impact, for example, policy on climate change, u. s. policy on china and the, the question about tie one, how do you see these mid terms impacting us engagement in the, in the wider world? so when it comes to china, i'm not actually expecting too much of a change. remember biden's policy is pretty hawkish toward china. and echoes a lot of policies. i think the republicans could push more aggressively, aggressively for greater export controls and regulatory frameworks to discourage us that you, companies from investing in china. but on things like taiwan, i think that there is pretty broad bipartisan support. climate change, i think is a different story. i mean, this is going to be one of the most important thing to watch. if the republicans do take over congress, i think they're going to exert pressure to scale up production of nuclear and fossil fuel and energy per se for more drilling permits, favorable regulatory acts for gas and oil companies, construction of gas pipelines and infrastructure in the us. so i think but, but i will say to that congres

u. s. have just turned 50 a many believe they're now at their lowest ever point. oh, the current situation that the china u. s. relationship is facing is a concern for us on the u. s. and china have increasingly disagreed on many fronts . 7 economic diplomatic military, as superpower arrivals with flash points such as the self governing island of taiwan, and access to technology, threatening to turn competition into confrontation. this meeting was aimed at setting out the guardrails to ensure future relations never escalate into hostilities. he was clear an hour's clear there will defend american interest and values promot, universal human rights, and stand up for their national order and work and lock strep of our allies and partners. we're going to compete vigorously for, i'm not looking for conflict bite and also said she had agreed with him that the threat of nuclear weapons being used in ukraine should be condemned, reaffirmed our shared belief and the threat, or the use of nuclear weapons is totally unacceptable. biden came to bali, emboldened by his midterm election success, reassuring many allies, hair of continued us support with less chance of a return

u. s. is defense, or the u. s. defense departments latest report on security developments. in 2021, the peoples republic of china employed multiple diplomatic tools in an attempt to erode u. s. and partner influence, such as highlight in the u. s. withdrawal from afghanistan and criticizing us backed security partnerships, people's republic of china, officials and state media outlets also repeatedly condemned the u. s. withdrawal from afghanistan and cited the withdrawal as evidence that the u. s. is an unreliable partner and declining power. the u. s. withdrawal was one of the defining moments of recent history. after 20 years of its military operation in afghanistan, the pentagon quit in the face of a taliban advance and left behind thousands of people who had been helping the u. s . army over the years. a bomb attack by an isolated group at kabul airport as people were trying to flee left at least 160 civilians and 13 u. s. marines dead. while the pentagon has been criticizing china for focusing on the chaotic withdrawal, the u. s. republicans had been pending the blame for what happened squarely on the biden

what german tasa salts that he said china remains an important business and trading part of germany and europe. we don't want to decouple from it, but the u. s. policy on china speaks of abusive and coercive economic practices in the trading space. and somewhere in between. the united states and its partners are trying to find a common line on china with both deeply invested there, having huge trade volumes in the us. it's more than half a trillion in the case of germany is more than $250000000000.00 or euro's whatever you like. so both can't get away from china and are grappling with how to deal with it. so in your view is germany meeting washington's expectations of being a strategic partner when it comes to china. well, certainly we saw entity blinking on stage as well. there's a lot of agreement that china needs to be handled with course, and you won't hear a word of direct criticism coming out of d. c. but no doubt there will be more expectations in the future. it's very interesting that german cancer souls takes pretty much head on the question of where you are, where germany has to position itself between the us and china. that is a question ger

u. s. door void, confrontation with china? the sort answer is no. it depends on which confrontation, you mean economic confrontation. there certainly is. the u. s. a. china policy just publish this year, speaks of an increasing the aggressive china. it's hina that is an competitor. and there's also criticism from joe biden at this very press conference. speaking of china becoming more aggressive in relations to taiwan. so yes, there are tensions there, but both sides are talking that's the 1st big says success. they will misspoke for 3 hours. and there's a recognition that there are issues that are bigger than the potential rivalry. and that is, for instance, climate change. that was the one big news that they will talk to each other on key issues like climate change, a whole host of other issues and that secretary of state antony blinkin will also be due to travel to china very soon. the u. s. re doubt also cited that both china and the us would a very critical and condemned and threats nuclear threats made that, of course, meaning russia and the us hope certain

u. s. pressures, despite u. s. threats, as well as india's dependence on russian arms. and so this strategy most of the world does not want to have to choose between the united states and china, or the united states and russia. and so the u. s. policy, this idea about the united states been back, which is the the bite and mantra and look at what biden has done. he came into office and surrounded himself with hawkish right wing advisors, 16 of whom are come from the center for new american security and others like blinking our stay, ours. secretary of state, you know, supported the event or afghan, the invasion of iraq, the invasion of libya, the bombing in syria min, so that people, people around the world know who these people are and what they represent. and they see what the u. s. strategy is toward russia also to use this situation that this war as quickly as possible, but to use it to weaken russia, you're absolutely spot on professor spot on on that. and this brings up a lot of fears that the u. s. his position on se asia may create a balkan ization of that region just like we saw in eastern europe. so, you know, the u. s. should probably tread lightly. i, when we're o

u. s. breach the sign o u. s. joint communicate. so we hope the u. s. takes the initiative to clear the barriers. this is trying to start. the responsibility doesn't lie on china's side, but on the u. s. sorry, that the war senegal has suffered. what's potentially a huge set back with well kept just 11 days away. it's been reported at their main man said your money is out of the tournament. the senegalese people association is closely assessing the situation after the reigning african player of the year suffered a knock to his chin while playing for by munich on tuesday. the forward couldn't continue and was replaced 20 minutes into the match. ah, reminder the top stories on al jazeera, the russian military says it's withdrawing from a major battle ground in southern ukraine. russia's defense minister has ordered troops to retreat from the to the pro river near the city of hassan and set up defenses on the eastern bank and ukrainian forces had been advancing in the house on region for several weeks now. as on, as the only regional capital that russia had managed to seize, since the invasion is thrown out from you for issues as a glove. so having comprehensively

on semiconductors in these chips. so the u. s. is very likely to or are prevent on china to get these on a vans computer chips such as g as in says, products into our brain is technology to the next level. also, the meaning of yours was in biden and dirt. china's leader she on the sidelines or the g 20 summit seems so signal and easing of tensions of bar taiwan as those been a boost to local investment settlement. ah, yes fur, to be honest, is not a very significant boost on after the 2 liters. matt, the overall stock market in taiwan, only rails by one percent. it's similar to what happened when she didn't pick, and biden had a phone call are during the can damage. so i was say not a significant rise in general, but it did reduced her geopolitical tensions are as fide. and after meeting said that he did not think china had imminent plans to invade taiwan. so a kind of fly said investors at ease because in the past few months, are china performed a lot of our military drills around taiwan afternoons. polo road visit and continue to claim that town is part of is on territo

u. s. and an expert in european security. and in london, u. j. a senior research fellow on china with the chatham house. think tank a warm welcome to you all, and thanks so much for joining us today on inside story, jesse, and let me start with you today. there are many analysts who have said or suggested that german chancellor shows was in china not just to represent germany's interest, but that he was also there perhaps on behalf of the you. so let me put it to you from your vantage point. was chancellor sholtes in beijing simply to represent germany's interests or was he also there on behalf of the you? so what is very important to consider in this context is that interests of any you, amber states always are closely linked to what you can do and what you will do in foreign policy. because basically, every decision a foreign policy requires unanimity. so whether member state death in its foreign relations and how it designs its fire relations, always his direct consequences also for the european union of course. and that is also what charles stressed before he was that he was not explicitly there as

b u proposal puts both china and the u. s. on the spot setting of a power struggle among the world's top 3 economies did up his tim schellenberg as at the summit and trammel shake. and earlier he told us the china is unlikely to agree to the deal as it's currently on the table right now. it will be very difficult for china to agree what's on the table at the moment. and that's because china has been part of the g 77, a group of developing countries pushing for exactly this lawson damage fund and the last couple of years. and also doing this past 2 weeks, but was actually on the table right now with me that china would switch from being a potential to put from a potential receiver of money to the side of those who pay for it a donor. and not as that is not very well seen among the chinese negotiators time for some other new stories making a headlines around the world. the u. s. attorney general has appointed a veteran prosecutor to oversee the investigation of former president donald trump . jack smith will lead inquiries into why

u. s. and china and its effects on reaching the u. s. threats and joe biden and china's leader she doing business set to meet face to face next week. on the sidelines of the g. 20 summit in indonesia, they will be there 1st in person meetings in spite and took office meetings comm intentions. over taiwan. the south china sea and trades the hurricane nicole has been downgraded to a tropical storm after making landfall in the us. state of florida. strong winds and launch swells have left a trail of damage along part of the states east coast and heavy rain continues causing floods. the call is expected to move north in the coming days, passing through georgia and the caroline is nbc j and b. c. j. grey has more from jensen beach in florida. live conditions. well, they've changed dramatically since the storm made landfall in the early morning hours, about 20 miles north of where we are right now. we've seen some sunshine, some patches of blue sky want to show you the way they continue to be bigger than they normally are, pressing out some

u. s. o office against china, and depend on the u. s. for training and support. now if you s trained australian or british pilots or enter in training chinese pilots and without consequences than we can imagine, discipline counting from washington. however, it might also be part of a comprehensive washington lead communication strategy operating among these countries, which is constantly sequencing new. anti china stories like a steady drumbeat. western hysteria about china has a proven tendency towards a lot of fake news. and even more than this, a pathological recourse and misinterpreting basic fact the craft grow.

u. s. president biden met with chinese leaders. she, she ping in indonesia. one of the most pressing issues was china's aggressive claim to taiwan. but mostly this highlighted the need to avoid conflict after months of simmering tension, the leaders of china and the u. s. struck an optimistic tone in what president joe biden called direct and straightforward talks during their meeting ahead of the g. 20 summit in barley, tony's president, she's in ping told his u. s. counterpart that the 2 nations share common interests as china's political and economic power grows. she said beijing is not looking to challenge the u. s. or shake up the existing international order. ah, the current state of china us relations is what we are both concerned about. but the current state does not conform to the fundamental interests of our 2 countries and peoples. nor does it conform to the expectations of the international community . one of the key issues was taiwan and the u. s. pledge to defend the self governing island biden voiced opposition to growing chinese aggression. he reiterated washington's one china policy, which acknowledges beijing's c

u. s. o office against china, and depend on the u. s. for training and support. now, if u. s. trained australian or british pilots or in turn training chinese pilots and without consequences than we can imagine discipline coming from washington. however, it might also be part of a comprehensive washington lead communication strategy operating among these countries, which is constantly sequencing new at each honest worries like a steady drumbeat. western hysteria about china has a proven tendency towards a lot of fake news. and even more than this, a pathological recourse to misinterpreting basic fact, the craft grotesque conspiracy theories. anything related to china in the u. k. a, u. s. and australia is intensely politicized now, and whenever investigations like these are announced, they are motivated politically. wow that rosa. this is alan to god. i'll see you dot com for more regional and international news will be back in the top of the hour. we hope you'll join us. mm hm. ah ah . ah, yes. now, are you yet? so if it's deployed yet yet, you know, i think, you know, the

b u proposal puts both china and the u. s. on the spot, setting of a power struggle among the world's top 3 economies calling and julia suddenly is in shanna shake for us julia. this summit is into overtime, but we are getting reports that there is still a way to go before a deal is reached. what are you hearing? now, that is exactly what we're hearing here. and there is also a concern coming from from a certain and negotiating parties that there may also be a back tracking compared to the agreements reach that the previous car last year in, in glasgow. we hear that there is concern that are even looking at wanting to keep alive. the goal of keeping the global warming of, of the, of the globe are below $1.00 degrees celsius or at the limit of $1.00 degrees celsius. may also be called into question now at, during the negotiations, it seemed like some countries do not want to stick to the commitment. and that is very worrying, especially for we've heard from the european parties. but it is also worrying because scientists say that

b u proposal puts both china and the u. s. on the spot setting of a power struggle among the wolf dog, 3 economies. i dw climate before to i did, man, john is with me in the studio and you've been following the cop conference. it's been extended by a day. what are the chances would get a deal today? if it's fairly unlikely that things are going to move back quickly? everyone journalist watching with were waking up this morning expecting to see a draft covered decision. finally, an agreement that would be debated over that didn't occur. and so i've been, i've had a 6 back to them a few hours from now, but essentially these negotiations consistently going to over time, it's expected all nice. and it's incredibly frustrating for the poor nations who kind of paying for hotels don't necessarily have the money to just extend the hotels and re book flight from egypt all the way across to the other side of the well, depending on whether from the negotiations do seem to have really hit a bit of a deadlock, and the question is whether they

one strain perhaps. certainly in this part of the world for china is taiwan. and the u. s. is views on taiwan on the u. s . as policy towards taiwan and the potential u. s. defense of taiwan, particularly aggravated that relationship between the u. s. and china of that visit from the u. s. speak to nancy pelosi to taiwan in the summer. and that was something the chinese were very, very angry about. i think the us will be saying no, our policy is not changed in any way, but of course you got the midterm elections and the results still not clear. we may have a new speaker, kevin mccarthy. and he said one of his 1st things that he's planning to do is to go to taiwan. so that is likely, i think, still to be contentious issue going forward. the other one in the region that you can look at. but i think it's very important is north korea, which is filed a record number of missiles this year, 86 missiles in one year. and this tool may be planning a 7 nuclear test. the u. s. believes that china can do a lot more to rein in north korea and stop this. it describes as provocative behavior. they believe they can dea

u. s . office against china, and depend on the u. s. for training and support. now if you s trained australian or british pilots or in turn training chinese pilots and without consequences than we can imagine, discipline counting from washington. however, it might also be part of a comprehensive washington lead communications strategy operating among these countries, which is constantly sequencing new at each highest worries. like a steady drumbeat. you seem to have all the delta dental games are really quite as concise our response. they've all to pretty much all my questions and say, okay, so, i mean, this is a thought about all close until the well being it politically, both a or isn't politically motivated. i have no reason at present to, to believe these investigations are actually pursuing real concerns. that said, if former military pilots of countries that now treat china as an adversary are willing to train chinese military pilots, it would be irresponsible for china not to hire them. you know what a marvelous hopper unity of so, but again, western hyst

one of the key issues was taiwan and the u. s. pledge to defend the self governing island biden voiced opposition to growing chinese aggression. he reiterated washington's one china policy, which acknowledges beijing's claim to taiwan, but does not recognize its sovereignty over the island. but biden said there was no need to let tension spill over into a new cold war. i'm from for a clue. policy or 2 or procedure. blue cross blue shield resolve quite after us. how speaker nancy pelosi visited taiwan in august. beijing scrapped its agreements with washington on tackling climate change. but following monday's meeting at the world's 2 biggest greenhouse gas emitters have re committed to cooperate. biden said, u. s. secretary of state antony blinkin will soon visit china, vowing to avoid conflict and keep communication channel wide open. ukrainian president vladimir lensky has called the liberation of his son, the beginning of the end of the war during a surprise visit to the city. harrison was recaptured by ukrainian forces on friday . after russian troops withdrew to the other side of that in the pro river. the city had been under occupation for 8 months. russia a

u. s. is nasty and open competition, but china and i think germany can agree on that as well. and other things as related to defense and security. i think germany is really trying to align with the u. s. in terms of it's concerns. and there are other areas such as technology and telecommunications. i think there is, there has been more cooperation across the atlantic in those matters. and so again, germany is not while it is not aligned completely with the u. s. position and the u . s. recognizes that, but i think there are still a lot of common areas that both countries can work together. a version of the your age group. thank you so much for your time tonight. thank you. oh, twitter employees are suing the company and a class action lawsuit over expected mass lee off the company recently acquired by the world's richest man, ellen musk told employees they would be notified about terminations via email. twitter offices are closed for the day and badge access has been removed. well, there has been no official announcement specifying the number of layoffs you as media report say,

on other topics. but it's not only about china coming back to the fund. it's also about the u. s. the u. s. has been very reluctant on this on this issue and is still is and there will be challenges to convince these 2 parties. he abused him schellenberg, joining us tonight from the top 27 climate summit in chicago. shake egypt. tim, thank you very much. are let's take a look now, some of the other stories making headlines around the world. the u. s. attorney general has appointed a veteran prosecutor to oversee the investigation of former president. donald trump . jack smith will lead inquiries into why truck had classified documents at his florida state of coast, as well as his role in the storming of the capital. in january, 6, swedish officials say that explosions on the north stream gas pipelines in the baltic sea connecting germany and russia were caused by sabotaged moscow and western nato. countries have accused each other of damaging the pipelines. the white house has asked a u. s. court to grant immunity to the saudi crown, france mohammed bin selman. he is facing a lawsuit for all

u. s. export controls targeting china, and those chinese made microchips. here's a former u. s. official spinning this strong army as a wonderful opportunity the allies just couldn't possibly pass on i expect addressing the common concern about china, then that creates an opportunity for the japan in the u. s. government's to reduce barriers on trade between japan in the united states. this will actually result in even better cooperation between japan and the united states and fewer restrictions on joint development and production of advanced note items. so there's the care, but watch of the stick. it may be western allies asked b u k. how that promised host breads that us trade deal care is coming along is by didn't even have the new prime minister's name right yet. meanwhile, canada is a national security to dump chinese steaks and 3 lithium mines. count as foreign affairs minister, fluffy champagne. you said the country welcomes foreign direct investment, but not when it threatens quote critical minerals supply chains, which is exactly the kind of french story. reducing supply chain participation to allies only the washington conjured up and announced over the summer with the i

on. i asked him if it's actually possible for china and the u. s. to compete without confrontation? well, this is louis the, one of the $1000000.00 questions of this century in geo politics. again, the fact that china has, has risen to being a rival power close to the level of the united states economically and or in the next couple of decades. militarily, as well, and whether, you know, this is almost as of historical inevitability about it, that is such a great power threat to the united states that these 2 powers will end up in conflict of some kind of joe biden, i think, is partly talking about trying to make sure that the 2 sides don't end up in a war that is completely unintentional to something effectively accidental could happen around one of the potential flash points such as ty, one for example, which we might talk about in a moment. but, and to give you a sense of the consensus, so i was speaking recently to a very senior militia. this is very close to the bite administration. and this analyst was pointing out that between the us and china, there simply are not the kind of

u. s. o office against china, and depend on the u. s. for training and support. now if you s, trained australian or british pilots are entering training chinese pilots and without consequences than we can imagine, discipline coming from washington. however, it might also be part of a comprehensive washington lead communications strategy operating among these countries, which is constantly sequencing new at each honest worries like a steady drumbeat. western hysteria about china has a proven tendency towards a lot of fake news. and even more than this, a pathological recourse than misinterpreting basic fact, the craft grotesque conspiracy theories. anything related to china in the u. k. u. s, and australia is intensely politicized now. and whenever investigations like these are announced, they are motivated politically 8, leading german companies, including bush, lima, design, chemical giant to be a f f. how publish and joint awful pulling for a 2nd. look at aggressive measures being taken against chinese investors and businesses, such as jeremy, so called china 5

on glare, believe p. m 2 does come. so pressure from various political groups to go has been criticized widely by the more sort of pro u. s. a. commentators to get tough on china. and so, you know, he did this whole business where he announced that he was confronting china, confronting the chinese president on china's supposed interference in canadian elections. justin should owe is not a man of principle. justin trudeau is a, is a politician that floats back and forth depending on where pressure is coming. and i think he tried to soften the criticism he was getting by doing this business of, of announcing that he had to criticize the chinese president on the matter of chinese interference in canada. and in the day the evidence isn't there. and, and to those kind of, you know, once again caught kind of in the middle of it all and not willing to sort of take a clear and principle position. ah, this is an, a massive fire at a factor in central. china has filled 36 people. it took slices about 7 hours to extinguish the blaze in the city of on the young me the roof will say that will therapies believe that these resulted from a criminal act and have taken multiple
