r ok software has sent weapons to ukraine. they are okay. and japan have supported sanctions against russia, the r. okay, has welcomed advanced weapons into the country weapons controlled by the u. s. and likewise, the return of us nuclear submarine patrols, post in japan and the are okay. are considering their roles, the roles that they might play in august, the new nato at the pacific. and nato has opened an office in japan, and japan is rearming itself as a forest projection, capable of military enough president put in his board that possible us plans to install long range missiles and ukraine would invite russia to consider doing the same elsewhere and some speculate one such elsewhere could be uh, north korea. in short, there's a much bigger strategic picture here than ukraine. although ukraine is part of it. but in north 3, a, russia has a friendly ford garrison on its eastern flag, a flight that is increasingly exposed to august, and the potential for us may have publications. now the us, once it seems to return to the cold war, and it's no surprise, this is happening on the korean peninsula precisely where the 1st cold war never ended up. professor mahoney, you're, you're speaking to us from shanghai. i myself lived in china for over 4 years, so i understand that china has a strategic interest and a good relations as well with the dpr k. i. how can a closer relationship between russia and north korea be a benefit to china is kind of watching this visit closely with interest. it was i said before they're there, they are watching you closely. certainly does the stuff about the waste of bus sanctions and maybe building a new global financial system or one that isn't controlled by the united states. this is something that's being watched very carefully, but china is very concerned about security on the peninsula. china remains committed to not seeing a nuclear proliferation, to the, on the, on that at the same time, you know, the united states is facing, excuse me, a china is already facing the return of nuclear submarines to port visits and south korea. they the selling of nuclear submarines to australia and the stationing nuclear capable bothers on the seo australia and northern coast. so i think what we're seeing is, is a fast evolving uh, security paradigm where we have to rethink things. you know, it was, it was only uh, you know, less than 10 years ago that we saw the united states, russia and china working together to try to limit their flu information on the korean peninsula. i think all 3 countries would still like to see that. but at the same time, it's clear that, you know, given the fact that to us is being much more provocative with taiwan. and we should recall that, that there is this sort of dialectic between north korea and, and so i want that it was precisely when the chinese were thinking about or, or, or are preparing to go in to taiwan deliberates. i walk after the civil war that the united states rolled in and, and block that and, and try to re routed that army into a career to stop the americans on the korean peninsula. so there's always been, is this uh, there's a bigger strategic game to play. but it's also been the case that china has wanted to, to promote as much as possible regional peace and security. unfortunately, that seems to be sliding sideways whether or not china wants it or not. and and so i think what we're going to see is, is trying to, trying to find a role that it can play to continue to promote peace. but at the same time, meet this girl likes that threat that it's finding from the west and extent to which russia joins that in a, in a, in a responsible way. i think paging. we certainly want to encourage that. all right, professor and international center for advanced political studies, executive director joseph gregory at mahoney. great, thank you for your time. it's all right, so vladimir put and, and his north 3 and counterpart comes on new and have a set down for bilateral talks, as the russian leaders trip to the dpr k dpr take the p r k continues. let's take a listen to you that was supposed to a selection, pretty glitching and pleasant. the sincerely grateful for this opportunity to visit us on some new toyota products between your public and korea. i get this so to my duplicate single come, you know, i see you can do regression and the cpr k. we are tied to by decades of close friendship present. done good neighborliness on print cheese one. you told me the deal. would you go use them? you know, they may just to make sure we still don't miss no.
