u. s. should continue sending money and aid and he may actually want to jump in and see if we can play a clip from a bite and speech that i think goes to one of the points that you're saying. let's see if we can pull that up for anyone who must at present prudence can run. it was something today did you did think was possible a year ago? the democracy of the world have grown stronger? not weaker, but there are a threat to the world grow weaker, not stronger. because a lot of great people on certainly that knowing what you're scared for is most important. and knowing who stands with you makes all the difference. i want to come back to barons because we know biden there earlier said that poland was a crucial partner. we saw earlier that on his counterpart on j, duda was speaking to introduce bite and the 2 also met earlier in the day. how do you think he's going to proceed this visit? so the poets actually think earth that they are now the preferred ally of the united states. the most important one

u. s. should reconsider its policy of arming ukraine warning that the weapons could end up on the black market. and new usa inflation reduction act, reportedly threatens to home pe you and british businesses due to its overwhelming focus on green policy. and as the us led invasion of iraq news, it's quim 20th anniversary. we investigate the legacy of the whole pitch neo con agenda that ultimately led to the ukraine conflict with it's a pm here in moscow in the facility international. but the very latest world news update is good to have you company this, our top story, a 3 paramedics have been killed off for an ambulance was hit by ukrainian fire in the city of don. yes, that's according to local authorities who at the shelling also took the life of a civilian woman and left another wounded. earlier ukrainian troops hit residential areas of don't yet with us supply the high mas rockets of correspondent to a mon calls or reports from the scene. this is a crates are made by the american made. hi mar

u. s. should lou is relinquish? is a hold on he, germany and sig peaceful coexistence and the willing cooperation with other countries on the basis of respects for sovereignty and a territorial integrity. next question, please. a question um, bloomberg regarding a publication or an article by a german publication there spiegel, which had a report where he claimed that the russian military is engaged in negotiations with a chinese drone manufacturers. specifically a she and bingo intelligent aviation technology company, or for the supply or possible supply of military use, jo drones for russia. how does the foreign ministry have a comment on this report from dur, spiegel, and o is? are the chinese authorities aware of this company? and its activities. thank you for me today to share. i'm not aware of this specific sidewalk when what i heard them is that there are much this information regarding lease on china over here to while they're doing and the logic behind this is we're assume our attention china without takes

u. s. should put aside geopolitical obsessions in immediately lift the unilateral sanctions on syria to unlock the doors for humanitarian aid to syria. almost 300 buildings have collapsed and syria, the northern city of al, up, up here. the turkish border is one of the areas most effective residents were forster flu, their homes, and have been gathering at shelters where they are, provide it with necessary accommodations. those facilities were chosen because they are far from tall buildings. as resonance fear that more structures will collapse. boswell, western sanctions, particularly from the u. s. have been walking vital aid from getting into syria after the disaster. russian troops serving in syria have been providing medical assistance and humanitarian aid to local residents, and the areas affect it. india has also joined russia in assisting in those devastated regions, sending massive aid packages to both syria and turkey. a. we heard from political analysts for som of bu abdullah, who says t

u. s. should reconsider its policy evolving. ukraine, as the weapons often end up in the wrong hands. weapons supplied by the u. s. to ukraine are often smuggled into the hands of criminal groups in europe and other regions. instead of creating new problems, washington should think about what good it can do for the world. concerns of a deadly weapons ending up in the wrong hands were also previously raised by the e. u and nice. so in july last year, both organizations advocated for greater tracking of om ship and the key of in order to prevent black markets, sales in europe, the u. law enforcement agency. you are a poll warned that the threat might be even higher ones. the conflict ends. you would officials also raise the issue quoting, for more effective arms control measures to be put in place. the u. s. policy of flooding, arms into war zones, is part of the problem is china has labeled america, the world's largest war monger paging added that in all of us history, the nation has only enjoy 2 d

u. s. should be providing some of its f. 16 fighter jets to the ukranian air force as part of that military support of the i'll follow up question was, well, you know, the u. s. has said no before to was certain missiles to certain missile defense systems to why abrams tanks. and every time that seems the u. s. has finally given in and the secretary of state's response was as of right now, the u. s. is view is that f sixteens are not part of what ukraine actually needs in order to defend itself. that's not to say that the u. s. is wavering, in any sense, in its support for ukraine's efforts against russia. rosalind jordan live in washington dc. thank you. ah, now the white house is responded to claims published online that the us was behind a tax which sabotaged the gnawed stream pipeline last year. the claims are made in a blog post by respected investigative journalist seymour hersh. russia says the u . s. must be investigated while adam fisher is in washington, d. c. for more of this and pretty

u. s, we don't accept any finger pointing. and it also said that the u. s. should stop spreading any this information and basically saying that the u. s. site is lying and it goes even further than the statement. also accuse us the us side of prolonging this war by i'm delivering weapons to the battlefield. so basically, the chinese site is denying all the claims into his counter taking against us. while the search statement from a, the, a secretary of state came to the day before china's top diplomat was expected to whole talks in moscow. what are these talks likely to focus on? well, i mean, one east and travel to moscow is really very symbolic. um, a you have to consider one year after russia's invasion, and basically biden is visiting here while i'm china needing foreign diplomat is a visiting or moscow. so 1st of all, it shows how important the relationship towards russia is for china. and then of course, i'm expecting a rather different rhetoric from what we've heard and what one he said in unit, i mean at the time he was basically proposing a, a piece initia

u. s. has held joint military exercises with south korean and japanese forces. the u. s. should bear in mind that if it persists in its hostile and provocative practices against the dpr k, despite the latter's repeated protest and warning, it can be regarded as a declaration of war against a dpr. k tongue has those keys, the 3 allies, her think a nuclear war against north korea. i think that it would take unprecedented strong action. the joint drills focused on the detection trucking. i'm the interception of ballistic missile us and south korea also noticed for strategic cruise missiles, washington, and so have been intensifying military drills for the past decade, leading to an escalation of tensions in the region. north korea has also conducted multiple test walk. it launches over the years. asia analyst don mclean, gil told us that such drills are not bringing the to careers any closer to reconciliation. the situation in the korean peninsula is absolutely vulnerable. and in fact, the case a here that we're looking into is of course the cons for the chances of miscalculation w

u. s. should we consider a policy of om in, ukraine warning that the weapons could end up on the black market. and new usa inflation reduction act, reportedly direct us to.

u. s. should reconsider. it's endless supply of with the so good to happy with us. with this i was program live from moscow. a time to address your stories. you know, the ones, the ones, the mainstream media tends to make known. this is the u. s. president joe, by makes a surprise visit to kiev, where he met with the ukranian president nearly a year after the start of russia's special military operation. offers photo up, the us president sat down and reaffirm washington's unwavering support to ukraine, pledging to send even more money and weapons. and the new package worth $500000000.00 is set to include high mars. i'm munition anti tank systems and radar . the move by the us president comes as ukraine marked 9 years since the deadliest day of my down protest in the ukrainian capital dozens were killed. 150 were willing to essentially that was a precursor to where we are today. and i strongly encourage you to have a look at this report from marina cos up. it is enlightening, the facts is stuffing. this is how it was portrayed in mainstream media. unarmed protest is

u. s. should remove such restrictions if they wire late international law as more than half of the respondents agree that limitations should be repealed. if they home the economic activity and livelihood of common people. and half of those polled beliefs such sanctions should be lifted if they impede cooperation on climate change. congress thing a foreign military insect that is not an unusual tactic for the us as washington has imposed many sanctions on countries such as by the way, the wrong preventing the supply of humanitarian aid. since 2005, the u. s. has upheld heavy handed measures against his whaler leading to more than 40000 deaths in the nation in a single year, due to lack of food and other primary needs. in 2018, washington impose new restrictions on iranian banks. constraining the country's ability to provide essential like medicine than in 2021. following a 20 year occupation of afghanistan, the us froze more than $7000000000.00 of the countries assets preventing the provision of vi

u. s. should remove such restrictions if they violate international law. all more than half of respondents agree that limitations should be repealed if they hom, the economic activity and livelihood of common people. and half of those polls believe such functions that should be lifted if they impede it, cooperation on climate change or target in the humanitarian phase. note an out of the ordinary tactic for the us as washington has imposed many sanctions on countries such as venezuela on the wrong which prevent the supply of humanitarian aid. since 2005, the u. s. has imposed a devastating sanctions against venezuela and one year causing over 40000 deaths in the nation due to a lack of food and the other primary needs. in 2018, the americans imposed restrictions against iranian banks. constraining the country's ability to provide essentials like medicine. then in 2021, they also froze over $7000000000.00 of afghan acids, preventing the provision and vital necessity to millions of it's already suffering citizens. well, let's discuss this further now with our

u. s. should bear in mind that if it persists in its hostile and provocative practices against the dpr k, despite the latter's repeated protest and warning, it can be regarded as a declaration of war against the dpr. k. young young has also accused the u. s. on south korea over her thing, a nuclear war against north korea, i think that it would take unprecedentedly strong action. the joint drills focused on the detection, trucking and inception of ballistic missiles. us on south korea also launched for strategic cruise missiles. 2 countries have been in since 5 military jails for the past decade, leading to an escalation of tensions in the region. we are also conduct multiple test rockets launches over the years. let's go live now to don mclean guild, our rights of the south on south east asia, philippine middle east studies association. thanks very much for joining us this afternoon. dawn now certainly is strong words from north korea about those gels, but certainly nothing we've not seen or hear

u. s. should we consider a policy of bombing ukraine, pointing to the weapons that on the glass with 11 pm here in moscow. and this is dorothy international with the very latest world news updates good to have your company. now the us sabotaged the north stream. pipelines was aimed at cutting europe off from a full of affordable russian gas. that's according to pulitzer prize winning journalist seymour hersh, speaking exclusively, so often return and see on going on to ground. the people who did this thing were assigned to do it in the intelligence community, the operators, they initially thought it was a great idea. let's get a capacity and it was before we before russia was talking, but it was so late, 2021. let's go and find out if we can do it and buy within a few months. the white house clearly was sold. that was told the people doing it thought this was in a bad idea. they gave the white house some options to maybe bluff or convince a potent at the cost is going to be very high. and but then

u. s. should commit so much to keep? why? i think the chancellor's taken the right approach on this. and he, he said, what has been the stated goal from president biden and from the coalition from the start? look, we have, we have 3 clear objectives and we've never wavered on this. number one, there must be a sovereign democratic ukraine. we must help ukraine win back as much of their territory as possible. but number 2, we cannot have a direct conflict between the u. s. war, nate, or any nato country, and russia. and number 3, we want this to be a strategic failure for russia. we want russia to be weaker at the end of this than they were at the start. and all 3 of those goals are important. we cannot stumble into a conflict with russia, and we have to convince the whole coalition is $54.00 countries at this point. they all have different interest, different perspectives. pulling them along takes takes a little bit of time and i think under the circumstances we've done it very, very quickly. and germany has been a key partner in making that happen. certainly most recently with their

u. s. should commit so much to keep well, i think the chancellor has taken the right approach on this and he, he said what has been the stated goal from president biden and from the coalition from the start? look, we have, we have 3 clear objectives and we've never wavered on this. number one, there must be a sovereign democratic ukraine. we must help ukraine when back as much of their territory as possible. but number 2, we cannot have a direct conflict between the u. s. war need, or any nato country, and russia. and number 3, we want this to be a strategic failure for russia. we want russia to be weaker at the end of this than they were at the start. and all 3 of those goals are important. we cannot stumble into a conflict with russia, and we have to convince the whole coalition is $54.00 countries at this point. they all have different interest, different perspectives. pulling them along, it takes, takes a little bit of time and i think under the circumstances we've done it very, very quickly.

u. s. should take action to send a message to china. for its part, the pentagon. they said that they strongly encouraged the president not to shoot it down. they didn't think it was worth the risk and they didn't really think it posed much of a risk. the u. s. to the u. s. military or any sort of sensitive information, but the president is getting pushed back from the right wing media and some republicans in congress to take a stronger action some saying that when it gets over the water than perhaps they should shoot it down. but again, the pentagon right now, their advice very clear, do not take any sort of action. this is going to take several days. it needs to get outside of the united states. and i think it's important. i've been covering the pentagon for quite a while. they almost never come out and directly say what exactly their advice to the president was. i can think of only one other time in dozens of years that i've actually heard them say that. and in fact, this time they came out very clearly and said, we sat with the president, we gave them options.

u. s. should be in the business of, of trusting and pretty rare bipartisan support on the issue of china when it comes to the u. s. government, but on this particular issue of tick tock, the is opposition to banning it isn't. there was including from the american civil liberties union. that's right. the a sale you what is a very much a in, in favor of allowing tick tock to continue to operate in the united states. it points out that one in 3 americans have the app downloaded on to their personal devices. and they say that it is a forum just as other kinds of social media are for people to express themselves. now there has been an ongoing negotiation between tick tock, it's corporate owner, and a part of the us treasury department, better known as sophia's to try to figure out how tick tock can still be permitted to operate inside the united states. but no such negotiation has actually been reached and there's now increasing pressure coming, particularly from a couple of us senators, to essentially

u. s. should cut ukraine off. other officials in kyiv today said saying u.s. should do more for ukraine. which ones will come out on top? we'll discuss that next. the eagle has landed. that's one small step for man... hey, what's up? -one giant... uh... houston... we have a situation. how did you get here? you're characters in our video game! video game? yeah, it's what we can do with the xfinity 10g network. basically, the greatest achievement since the moon landing. i think they're talking about us. i know. you can play from anywhere. -yeah, i'm in the basement. i'm at the dentist. check this out. it's super smooth even when everyone's online. whoa, can i try that? you're in the game! what the heck is that? those are the bad guys. -are they friendly? nope! ok, here's the plan. on the ship there's some wire cutters, some tubing and rubber bands. now with our know-how and some elbow grease and a little bit of luck, i — you're probably going to want to start running. the next generation 10g network, only from xfinity. one giant leap for mankind. >> after preside

u. s. there should do anything they can to break down and find out whether it was such an offense or not. instead, it sounds like you're going to let it fly. you're the u. s. standard to be for another 2 days. so i think there should be more consistency on on this point. ok. and on this point in particular, let's bring a high no clink. so the balloon was reportedly hovering over sensitive sites, including a field housing, us nuclear missile. the by an administration has decided not to shoot it down, but allow it to linger. how do you explain that? quite frankly, i can't explain it. if i were still in government, i would be advising senior leaders to bring down the balloon. if they clear violation of american sovereignty and it should be brought down, let me just state as well. that doesn't necessarily mean it needs to be shot down. there are other ways of being able to bring the balloon safely down. so my policy recommendations would be to bring the balloon down. right, and i know the defense official said that the u. s. has quote options to deal with this balloon. if the risk it poses cha

relationship with rework to the warmer days a couple of years ago. nuclear weapons that should be abolished on the u. s. that should lead the way, according to me correctly as president to say, say the west has no authority to deny iran the right he needs to sign. western countries don't have the right to dictate who does and doesn't have nuclear weapons . we don't love atomic bombs, but what authority do western powers have to prohibit iran if it wants to make them all atomic bombs have to disappear? starting with the ones of the yankees. the president's remarks follow accusations from the international atomic energy agency, which was subsequently endorsed by western officials. the allegations claim iran changed the configuration of centrifuges, thus violating the 2015 international nuclear deal to ron, has a strongly denounced the accusations and say, the i. e. a made a mistake, we immediately offered explanations which were communicated the same day, and the agency inspector also became aware of their mistake. well, let's take a look back at the international deal signed in 2015. the iran at nuclear

u. s. should rethink its level of support to ukraine. what is your message to them? what do you want them to understand? >> well, there is a simple rule of thumb there. the less support we get and the slower we get it, the more support the u.s. will have to provide in the end. because, obviously, the inefficiencies of that process, if the u.s. wants us to win -- and if it doesn't, why try to provide support at all? look, i think we have to realize that this is probably the last year of this war. and with the victory actually looks like depends on how quickly and how efficiently we get all support that we need. >> let's certainly hope it is the last year of this war. thank you all for being here. igor, i'm sending you and your family safety and warmth at this time. here we, are at your two. and lassiter william taylor, igor novikov and garry kasparov, thank you all so much. when we come back, the court case that could have huge impact on access to abortion pills. dr. kavita patel is here for what's at stake for women around the country. and, later buckle up -- our fri

u. s. congress, we have concluded that the conditions are not right at this moment. for secretary blinking to travel to china. so this is the position of the u. s. government. we should also point out that to the u. s. president spoke in the last hour or so, but he did not speak to reporters about this incident. he would only speak about the u. s. jobs report, and he ignored report as questions about this, leaving it to the state department to handle. this is not sitting particularly well with us law makers who are really looking for answers from u. s. government about why this was able to creep into u. s. air space. how this balloon, which the chinese government says is a weather balloon. and the pentagon is saying is anything, but in fact is a collection and intelligence collection device used for floating over some very sensitive military sites. namely an icbm or, or enter a ballistic missile nuclear site as silo field. in fact, over the u. s. state of montana, we also know from the pentagon that when this was detected, we should point out it was detected by bystanders on the ground. not the military itself. that the military then shut down any sort of capability

u. s. has been over stretching the concept of national security and abusing state power to suppress other countries companies to we firmly oppose this wrong action issue to the u. s. government should respect the principles of market economy in fair competition. i did jo castro as more in our from capitol hill. there has been concern best to ring in the u. s. security community for the last 2 years. as the f b i and the department of justice have both warned that one day perhaps china could use tick tock as a tool to spy on its american users. and there are plenty of them and growing more than 100000000, tick tock users in the united states. currently, a cyber experts have also said they agreed that tick tock does pose a potential threat, perhaps not so much on the individual users private information. but on spying an on americans in the aggregate, collecting data on habits, things to fuel the cultural wars, things that could be exploited to spread misinformation or per fact perhaps to influence an election. and we've all seen how that was used by russia to influence elections previously in the us. now tick tock and its chinese parent company by dance have both denied any of that

u. s. government simply trying to distract the american people away from more pressing domestic issues. or i think it's very unfortunate that the u. s. government should have use the balloon incident to, to distract people's attention on some disasters in the domestic market. well, let's face it. i mean, in a while, the context of this actually shows how difficult the relationship between china and the us are at the most. and it just takes, you know, people and the governments to think about what is more important. what is their mission? as a country government, which i believe is to, to look after its own people and their interest in this balloon incident l. lou and drama, as i would call it, is really getting ridiculous. the ohio incident also is vog mass outrage on line with some quizzes in washington. it should be focusing more on the message problems instead of foreign policy. those like the money to you. great. i don't want to see ukraine flags in ohio anymore. the government gave you crate money for weapons instead of using it to fix or train tracks and trains. now we have one of the worst disasters in the history of our country. reporter on th

u. s. government should i use the balloon incident to, to distract the people's attention on some disasters. in the domestic market, well, let's face it. i mean, in a while, the context of this actually shows how difficult the relationship between china and the us are at the moment. and it just takes, you know, people and the governments to think about what is more important and what is, you know, their mission as a country government, which i believe is to, to look after its own people and their interest and this balloon incident. all the drama, as i would call it, is really getting ridiculous or in china, china said is in us his area. would you agree with that? yeah, i think it's, it's right to to say that's because it is getting a hysterical in a sense by making such a big muscle the balloon incident. the bear in mind that according to the chinese, according to the chinese government, there are reports of us balloon flying over china as space as well. but i think the chinese government has taken a different approach and also, i mean, we see here that the a sufficient, i've been told him

u. s. has been over stretching the concept of national security and abusing state power to suppress other countries, companies. we firmly opposed those wrong actions. issues with the u. s. government should respect the principles of market economy and fair competition. rosalyn jordan is following developments from washington dc. there's been longstanding concern here in washington, a bow to the use of tick tock, and whether it is being used to essentially spy on americans of the trumpet ministration raised these concerns of donald trump, the former u. s. president wanted to ban the software a, an agency within the u. s. treasury department known as sophia's has been trying to figure out how to a while tick tock to continue to operate inside the united states. at one point there was a talk about giving it a very specific operating rules as long as it basically separate it from it's a owner bite, dance and set up a purely us based opperation system with in, with very strict firewall. so that data collected here in the united states could not be shared with byte dance, which is based in china. but so far that has not been worked out. negotiations are still underway. and both republicans and

u. s. has been over stretching the concept of national security and abusing state power to suppress other countries. companies to we firmly oppose this wrong actions. issues with the u. s. government should respect the principles of market economy and fair competition, or less brand glen call. he's a former deputy national intelligence officer for trans national threats with the central intelligence agency, join us ly from boston via got glenn. good to have you back on the program. so the u. s. has now joined canada and the europeans in coding for ban on the use of tick tock on government issued funds from now. i mean, how significant is this move by the us? what exactly glen is the national threat. well, there are several levels of potential threat, and i would say real threat. there's the collection of data, national data that can be used by companies, but also by governments. we know that by law in china, and in fact, every company, technological company has to provide any data requested by the government to the chinese government. and that every company now has an overseer j from the chinese communist party at multiple levels of the corporate structure. so that is one through the oth

u. s. has been over stretching the concept of national security and abusing state power to suppress other countries companies to we firmly opposed us wrong action issues with the u. s. government should respect the principles of market economy in fair competition. with the house foreign affairs committee is set to vote on a bill to give president by new powers to bam, the tick tock cab by use use rather by more than a 100000000 americans. while i was here as high, jo, castro is live now on capitol hill. m. hi there. how did your, what are the main concerns them that are being raised around this julie, the concerns are pretty easy to sum up. are you as security officials fear in the f b, i has warned americans that tick tock could be as a way to spy on a device operated by anyone who is using tick tock including americans. and that is why the f b, i and the department of justice have warned those 100000000 americans who used to talk not to do so. that's despite the assurances from tech. talked there have been safeguards put in place to and in essence, offshore operations of the servers that store american users data. those are in texas, not in china itself, but the house for in affair

u. s. security council should be opposed. and also in a statement it says that the unit, actual sanctions and maximum pressure cannot solve the issue. and that can only create new problems. so how china handle the current issue is not posing sanctions and not providing weapons, but a calling for a political resolution. the statement has a several layers of logic. if you see the flow of the logic, it's quite agree clear. on the 1st of france, it calls for all countries to respect the sovereignty of all the nations and abandoning the cold war mentality. and the 2nd layer is about the crisis itself. it calls for seating hostilities, resuming peace talks, resolving the humanitarian crisis, and protecting civilians and prisoners. and also it focused on the opposed, in fact, broad by the crisis, including keeping the nuclear power plant save, reducing strategic risk and facilitating grain exports and stopping unilateral sanctions keeping industrialized supply chain stable and also promoting post conflict reconstruction. so it's a l

but should there be an armed conflict between china and the u. s. and i believe that if the powers that be in beijing came to bite dance and asked them to open up a back door into our systems. and he will be difficult to refused at ask what would it mean? do you think role and for take talk itself if these bands became more commonplace it looked very problematic. farnham and i look, i do feel for them. i am bored. i mean it a bit like when trump was trying to get them to sell the u. s. arm of it, which is obviously the most lucrative aspect of the business. and ultimately it looks like, you know, if, if this continues in this trend, i'm ultimately my gets old or, and marcy, their executive chairman of smart take 247. great, don't you on and thank you. you are watching al jazeera live from london still ahead. y pakistani court has issued an arrest warrant for former prime minister in one con, seeking justice survivors of the war and are for speaker on the lasting impact of the conflict. and it's for a dramatic one run victory in your dealings because

u. s. also, well, should we say meddling in investigators who were trying to look into the attack. so calder independent investigative commission, apparently helped cover the trucks of their closest allies or norway and america. that's according to see more house report. the u. s. informing its allies about possible unusual activity in the baltic sea in june, sweden, germany and denmark formed a group to look for clues, but failed to find any evidence for the very same time blocking russia for investigating the sabotage of its own pipelines. well, that's our european countries suffer. the consequences of having cut off russian gas us immediately denied the american journalists revelations. labeling them is complete. nonsense. have you or anybody else at the state or a man of any communication with german, norwegian ambassador, or other wise repairs on this matter? on the matter of north between 2 on the matter of the latest allegations it would, it would not be typical for us to engage allies in partners on something that is utter and complete nonsense. and that should be rejected

u. s. has been over stretching the concept of national security and abusing state power to suppress other countries. companies. we firmly opposed this wrong action issues in the u. s. government should respect the principles of market economy and fair competition. let's go now talk osborne and rosalind jordan, she is joining us live from washington d. c. and the house foreign affairs committee is set to vote on a bill to give president biden new policy to ban the tick tock at later on tuesday . roz. well, that's just part of what a bi partisan movement on in congress is looking to do. and in fact, there are some members of the us senate that are taking issue with china's attempts to portray itself as a young country there's. there's now a movement to basically remove china from getting any special le trade privileges that will go to smaller, less developed economies. that said, there's been a long standing concern here in washington about the use of tick tock and whether it is being used to essentially spy on americans. the trouble ministration raised these concerns. donald trump, the former us president, wanted to band the software. an agency within the us treasury department, know

u. s response should have been shot down over the pacific ocean, not the atlantic coast. you don't shoot down a spy craft after it's done spying. there was a non zero chance this balloon had been down over the united states would have been very costly to us lives and the collection that we did well, it was over the united states is going to pay. dividends. china maintains that it was a civilian weather balloon blown off course, the pentagon says that is quote ridiculous. navy is still trying to find all the parts of that balloon in the area where it was shut down off the south carolina coast. joining us now, for more perspective on all this news is professor stephen fish, international politics expert at uc berkeley. professor we always appreciate the time let let me first get your thoughts on the latest news. we're getting today that the u. s military shooting down this second high altitude are object. that's what they're calling it. it was over alaska in american airspace. why why do you believe the president and the administration moved more quickly in this case to tak
