the xi jinping thought series of textbooks. one of the passages says -- this is a 28 pass -- 2018 passage. it says america's growing weaker. russia is growing more aggressive. europe will be in chaos. this is going to be great for china in short. that is the paraphrase. these are preconditions for china's rise. what has followed since then is a strategy we are seeing play out right now. beijing is trying to shatter europe. shatter it into a bunch of little pieces of crystal. mr. smith: excellent. join me in round of applause. i don't know if i'm allowed to say this. go out and buy his book. read his back story. fascinating journey from wall street journal reporter in asia to serving combat tours. mr. pottinger: the book, which i cowrote and am the editor of is really a military discussion. it is not an economic war deterrent strategy. it is night diplomatic strategy. what we argue, my co-authors and i is in the absence of credible military hard power, none of those other elements of so anyway, i welcome your critiques, disagree

there's an ideological element and you talk about that rush but if you look to what xi jinping and theinese government are publicly saying it's the great rejuvenation china nation strong position for the chinese people. that's nothing to do with marxism. if anything is the antithesis of classical marxism and so forth they affect in some ways i fear china might be bearing out linens the rate of imperialism. can go into that. what that means is what we have to be realistic about what we expect detente is not satisfied, is not a final solution to the problem that i don't think that's really together think it's far too dangerous to pursuit because as is that the chinese have heard some of the arguments about victory and regime change picky mention foreign affairs and dan who i agree is fantastic and he published the peace by bob kaplan and the back in 2020 making the argument against this type of policy. it is too dangerous. it's not critical for american interests which american interests in my view if you go back to george kennan, george was saying, they were saying we need to prevent a

when you do in ukraine is going to matter to xi jinping that argument will carry to those who perhaps don't want to do what we're doing for ukraine that is the first thing. second is we have to realize that some of these engagements will be hard to sustain over a long period of time. i don't know of any american president, whatever their name is, whatever that person s can sustain 60 billion packages to ukraine every 6 months. and so, what now can we do with ukraine to get to a place where ukraine has a defensible, reason to believe they are secure, independent and potentially prosperous, what does that look like. for a lot reasons we have been unwilling to talk about that, we can't until ukrainians are ready to talk about it what does that mean. at some point, the war, which vladimir putin, stabilized himself. 500,000 russians have died in this war. he is willing to sacrifice 500 thousand more if he has, to ukraine can't do that and so, wha is the intermediate gain. that hard discussion about america's willingness to give security guarantees, there i am concerned about some of the el

look, like i said, i'm dealing with xi jinping right now and i have direct contact with him. i have no good reason to talk to putin right now. there's not much that he is preparing to do in terms of accommodating any change in his behavior. but there isn't any world leader i'm not prepared to deal with. i understand the generic point, is putin ready to talk? i'm not ready to talk to putin, unless putin changes his behavior. look, putin has got a problem. first of all, in this war that he has supposedly won, and by the way, don't hold me to the exact number, but i think that russia had 17.3% of ukraine that they have conquered, now it is 17.4%, in terms of percentage of territory. they have not been very successful, they have caused horrible damage and loss of life but they have also lost over 350,000 troops, military killed and wounded. over 1 million people, particularly young people with technical capability, leading russia because they see no future there. they have a problem. what they do have control of his they are very good at controlling and running the public outcry

on xi jinping. the thought of xi jinping and he points out that he's played jinping by the example of gorbachev and the soviet communist, a party that opened up society and found that that society had no role, no for the communist party. and so what he is searching for is a way to keep tabs on all this, tamp down liberal ideas in case it's absolutely obvious he's. been ever since he gained power, he has talked about russia as the third rome, the place that is to preserve the the original pre enlightenment ideas of of faith and devotion and national. he gave a bizarre statement once explaining, you know, how the west was now becoming chaotic and liberalism was decaying and was defunct because, look at how they're treating j.k., because, you know, because of her views on trans issues. but it's it's it's a very thought through. and, of course, the iranian mullahs live in fear of all western ideas. so i was struck down by the degree to which it's not just about hard power, it is about the desire to get,

possible to be in the european union, you can be friends with donald trump, at the same time with xi jinpingd at the same time. to meet and go to kyiv, no one, you know, will stop orbán, whose time has come, here he is, who shows, this is basically the model that they all would like to implement, so that they can focus on trump, so that they can to take money from china so that they don't get anything for it, so that they can somehow understand moscow's worries and that they don't get anything for it, this is such... vladimir putin, so they say, they wanted to come to kyiv and show that they support the courageous ukrainian people, you can see how their positions have all changed, marine le pen went there to see orban, and she says that she supports ukraine almost like george melanie, only with this difference that george melanie does not go to moscow, and has never been there, unlike again ... marine le pen and matteo salvini, who also joined orban's group, the leader of the league party, which is the most important partner in the italian government coalition. think about it, that in fact t

bad sign, but— xi jinping is a very bad sign, butl— xi jinping is a very bad sign, but i think— xi jinping and other western allies, i'm joined by veteran national security journalist, barbara starr, who's now a senior fellow at the annenberg center on communication leadership and policy at the university of southern california, and elise labott, professor at american university's school of international service, and author of the substack newsletter cosmopolitics. welcome to you both. always great to have you on the programme. we will delve into what was achieved at the summit in a moment — butjust listening tojohn bolton there — what happens in november loomed large at this summit. barbara — how will the pentagon be looking at this election and what it means for the nato? —— what it could mean for global security? -- what it could mean for global security?— -- what it could mean for global security? well, you know, there _ global security? well, you know, there is _ global security? well, you know, there is an - global security? well, you know, there is an awful i global security? well,

now, we don't know whether xi jinping has already made the decision to go to war but we do know he'sking war along his southern and eastern peripheries with a number of different countries, india, japan, taiwan, the philippines, and so this is an extraordinarily dang dangerous t in history. cheryl: also too, new news overnight, north korea launching two ballistic missiles. south korea said one had an irregular flight pattern, potentially blowing up near the capital. that's the second failed launch in five days. it's not just china, it's north korea. it's also, well, russia. it's also iran. your thoughts? >> yeah. north korea certainlies is emboldened, russians are providing ballistic missileing the following to them, that's a result of their agreement where the north koreans agreed to provide short range missiles and artillery shells for ukraine and russia agreed to provide technology for long range missiles. they don't care. those are sanctions violations. they're being very bold because they believe they have that opportunity and if they're going to move, they're going to have to m

china is building its allies in europe, including hungary and serbia, where xi jinping recently visited, er, here especially, so. and the feature is that these two countries are very strongly in solidarity with the russian federation. and this unites both china and these two countries covered by the chinese europe project. as for the black intestine, ah, when scholz was in beijing, he mostly talked about... the economy, because the billions and billions of invested money, investments from the german side in the chinese economy, of course need to be implemented. at the level of projects and so on, and they need to be protected, and they need to be promoted, they need to be implemented, so no one here will argue very much, of course, that scholz, who seeks an end to the war on fair terms in kyiv, ah, at least that what he's talking about, he's certainly tried... some sort of influence on the leadership of the people's republic of china is going to influence moscow in china to end hostilities, but if china wanted to influence, it would influence, because all this talk of well, let's join h

came just days after he traveled to moscow and beijing to meet with presidents vladimir putin and xi jinping. the hungarian leader has repeatedly clashed with eu and nato allies over his often

this is friendly territory for xi jinping, these two nations have economic ties. it's a relationship valued by both. in particular, by beijing. but the bigger purpose of this trip including xi jinping, as well as at amir putin is for this meeting of the shanghai cooperation organization, the sco, to give you some history, it's a club of sorts. you could argue this alliance spearheaded by china, by russia kazakhstan certainly member as well as other eurasian nations originally this was set up for security reasons to prevent terrorism and to create some security among these borders. but as you alluded to, it's taken on more of this geopolitical tone and one occurrence that we are looking for in this meeting in the hours ahead is the admission of belarus to the sco belarus, a bit controversial because belarus is credited for lack of better words of helping russia with its invasion of ukraine and that is perhaps causing some different feelings among members. but it shows perhaps the tone of where this alliance is going. in fact, it was last year when iran became a ful

remember, in may xi jinping made a visit to europe, and this visit was about trade, it was not aboutne, not about nato, but about trade they agreed on what... conditions china can trade, how to ease restrictions, whether europe will agree not to introduce various sanctions against chinese companies, and so on, how will this dialogue work? and in order to strengthen its relations with europe, china needed to demonstrate a certain gesture, a certain signal to the europeans that they are listening to their most important concerns and problems, and these problems are related to ukraine, related to security risks, about which european leaders regularly told xi jinping during bilateral and multilateral meetings, and xi jinping almost never responded to them in any clear way, but rather... referred them to the chinese position that had already been presented before, and now, sensing this threat, china had to look for some other ways, and this dialogue with europe is possible only on the condition that china receives a certain positive signal that it is ready to communicate with ukraine, rea

that is why xi jinping is not ready to seek any compromises here and really negotiate with one side or the other. it is important for them... only to create an image that they still advocate peaceful, exclusively peaceful tools and ways of resolving the war, resolving the conflict, and to create a good picture that china really acts here as a state that is peaceful, and most importantly - to create a certain the opposite and position the opposite of the united states of america. the usa, unlike china, actively supports ukraine, provides ukraine, ukraine with the necessary aid... help in order to achieve a military victory in this war, in which it should be noted that china does not believe, china does not believe in victory by military means, and neither does russia , nor ukraine, and absolutely sincerely believes that only negotiations can be the only way out of this situation, unlike the usa, the usa, unlike china, actively helps ukraine, and china criticizes such a strategy, such a policy on the part of washington, calling it adding fuel to the fire, and here for china, china is try

the political apparatus, in the government apparatus, what does this... prove, in fact every year xi jinpingurge in the top ranks, top officials and top army men, he is afraid if this is really a struggle maybe there with corruption, with something else? i think that this is a fight not only against corruption, but against such, i would say, how to be precise, ee potom... what villages are built by the chinese party nomenclature, quite often, and one important thing must be said here , that this dzimpin found himself in the same situation in which vladimir putin found himself when he started his blitz klig, only when it comes to vladimir putin, it started already when the war itself began, that is , this second army of the world appeared, it in fact , not even a tenth, that she is poorly prepared, that she has an illusory attitude towards goals. that she is not trained, that she is not modern, and she had to change literally before her eyes, you cannot say that russians do not change, they do, but when putin gave the order to advance, he really believed that he was dealing with a trained, st

maloney believes, that xi jinping's government could put pressure on russia, although at the same timee leadership of the people's republic of china for too much support of the russian military-industrial complex. and, by the way, this is her first visit to heaven. we have reached the moment when peace negotiations can begin. about it in the interview. in the french newspaper lemonds, said the president of finland, alexander stup. according to him, now ukraine is in a much stronger position than two months ago, as it receives equipment and financing. and then his quote: russian there is no breakthrough either. according to our data, russia is not moving forward and its losses are even greater than before. this is the end of the quote. however, the withdrawal of russian troops from ukrainian territories, in his opinion, cannot be considered as a precondition for the start. spoke, and one more quote from mr. stup: from our point of view, the path to peace is clear, russia must leave, but you cannot consider this withdrawal as a precondition, and at the same time, mr. stup added that, in

>> xi jinping is a control freak, so is the ccp.othing they have done really in the last two years -- what they did over the weekend is they decreased the bank rate that would be charged by .1% or one tenth of one percent. that's essentially nothing. i think because this happened the markets in the u.s. are the same as the markets in china. people see something and they don't like it and they react. as you said a few minutes ago, their economy is down the worst i think -- the stock market is down the worst as it's been in the last six to eight months. and it's going to get worse. i'm sorry, kelly. >> no, no no. i was going to build on that. they had the plenum last week. with everything going on here, whatever people were expecting, sounds like china didn't deliver. i don't know why we keep being surprised that xi jinping is sticking to this centrally-planned model where there's not going to be movements towards any real liberation that would revive a market economy. >> kelly, xi jinping does not want anything that would disrupt his

when you contrast images of biden with putin and xi jinping, it is worrying. hear biden trying to issue scare tactics what president trump would do if re-elected. we should not believe them. president trump believed in have be ing a strong nato, that is why president trump warned everybody about their dependence on russian and iranian gas. he was laughed at. he he was prophetic, everything he said all came true when russia invaded ukraine. >> joey: see if nato leaders can figure that out. thank you for joining us on independence day, happy 4th of july, enjoy your day. >> happy 4th. >> joey: before we head out, note check out "uk unbroken bonds of battle," detailing sto stories. i would love for you to check that out on this independence day. available at foxnewsbooks.com. nathan's hot dog eating contest starting in a few hours and adam klotz is there and abby hornacek is necessary bristol, rhode island. stick around and celebrate independence day with friends. this summer. snacking. just. got. serious. introducing new $3 footlong dippers. the world might not b

the central committee of the 20th congress of the communist party of china, when xi jinping comes outogether with his, that is, partners in the politburo, and we see this broadcast to the whole of china, then there are no doubts here, he does not have a stroke and so on, because if something were , that is, there are several unofficial markers in... chinese society, well, the main one, for example, is the raising of the troops of the central military district, china, or at least the garrison, nothing like that happened, and we have a fresh memory, that is, the only death of the recent, let's note, the former prime minister, i have on... that recently there have been no such it means that things did not happen to any high officials of the people's republic of china, it only meant the death of liketsyan, but he was already a former person and there are many other markers that we do not see, well , the most important thing is that he, i mean imbina, after the end of the plenum calmly , so... was shown on television screens. mr. igor, we sincerely thank you for your thoughts, for joining

central committee, from the 20th congress of the communist party of china, ah, when xi jinping goes outtogether with his partners in the politburo, and we see this broadcast to the whole of china, there are no doubts, he has no stroke and so on, because if there was something, there are several unofficial markers in chinese. society, well, the main one, for example, stamps - this is the raising of the troops of the central military district, china, or at least the picket garrison, nothing like that happened, and it is fresh in our memory, so, uh, the only recent death, we note , former the prime minister, i mean that... in recent times, no such things have happened to any high officials of the people's republic of china, only the death of liketsyan, but he was already a former, and there are many other markers , which we don't see, and the main thing is that he, i mean imbina, after the plenum ended calmly, that means he was pro'. shown on television screens. mr. igor, we sincerely thank you for your thoughts, for joining the broadcast of the political club, espresso tv channel. igor ly

territorial integrity and sovereignty. of ukraine, and it was also confirmed what chinese leader xi jinpingt china would not supply weapons to russia. to goanjo dmytro kuleba was invited by the foreign minister there, wang yi, the second person in the chinese hierarchy after xi jinping. the conversation lasted for more than three hours, kenr continues to call russian aggression a ukrainian crisis, but in... expressed readiness to help achieve peace, namely peace, not a truce, dmytro kuleba emphasized. i spoke about the importance of a just peace, not just any peace, and my chinese colleague himself added that a just and lasting peace is very important, because usually we are the ones who keep saying that there should be peace stable, that is, long and fair. but what does a just peace mean for... china. the cause of the war is officially named by pakin as the expansion of nato to the east. his peace proposals essentially equate the victim and the aggressor. china is not going to give up its strategic partnership with russia, but china is not the only country that has real influence on the kr

is building its allies in europe, including hungary and serbia, where, recently, there was also xi jinpingis visiting. and what is special here is that these two countries are very strongly in solidarity with the russian federation. and this union. there is also china, and these are the two countries that fall under the chinese europe project, which concerns the black intestine, ah, when scholz was in beijing, he spoke mostly about the economy, because billions and billions of investment money from the german side into the chinese the economy in... of course they need to be implemented at the level of projects and so on, and they need to be protected and they need to be promoted, they need to be implement, so no one here will argue very much, of course, that scholz, who wants the end of the war on fair terms for kyiv, ah, at least what he is talking about, he certainly tried to have some influence on the leadership of the people's republic of china, will cope with that , for china to influence moscow regarding the end of hostilities, but if china wanted to influence, it would influence, be

tried to take credit, what he's looking at is basically failure in china due to the policies of xi jinpingent under predecessor, they delayed the 2008 crisis and having it now. to any extent that american policy had an effect, was president trump's tariffs in 2018 that accelerated the crisis, biden on the other hand has been helping china by dog was linked american business to stay there, really what you've got right now in china is a problem because they don't have the ability to use fiscal stimulus to get the economy growing again and in the first quarter they spent 10.8 units in order to get one unit of gross domestic product, the second quarter it was four-point to units to get one gdp, this shows you the fiscal stimulus is not working, china does not have firepower because it's having the 2008 goldman sachs is wrong about this. maria: china is appearing to cast itself as a peacemaker in recent days, ukraine's foreign minister under minister kelly the chinese counterpart during the meeting outside of beijing yesterday that kivas open to talk to fresher connect to good faith senior offi

russian dictator putin and chinese leader xi jinping, they talked to each other, met, and xi even said that cooperation between russia and china is a factor of international stability, that's how he said, we understand that all the events that are happening there, in particular, belarus, which officially became the tenth member country of this shanghai cooperation organization, these are all secondary things, so we are more interested in what, again, xi and putin could talk about in the context of this meeting, and belarus by itself , as a vassal russia was also present there, how do you assess this meeting in general, what should we expect from it? it seems to me that the meeting between putin and xi jinping was quite ordinary, because at such platforms the leaders meet regularly, discuss certain issues, this is a common practice, and if they did discuss certain important issues, then rather in such a rather short and limited format, therefore that usually key things are discussed behind closed doors and for this it is not even necessary to come somewhere or meet on the sidelines of s

. >> well trump, the people that we think of as our adverse yours, vladimir putin and xi jinping, itst on. and it always surprised me when people say donald trump is tough. because in his record both as president but also in the way he talks about the future, it is clear that he intends to accommodate vladimir putin, he just recently made very disparaging comments about taiwan which send a clear signal to xi jinping about whether we might defend taiwan or not. and so his basic approach to the truly tough guys in the world is that he backs down as in retreat and his choice of j.d. vance as his vice president senses a very strong signal about how we're going to treat allies and adversaries. vance voted not only against ukraine aid, but against taiwan aid, and also against israel aid. and i think that is the real foreign policy that donald trump speaks for now. >> and fiona, you served or donald trump. on his russia policy. you saw how he reacts to vladimir putin and authoritarians. why should americans take pause when they hear that? why does it matter? >> well there is two aspects of

's what xi jinping spends most of his time complaining about.presi, you that they've gotten under his skin with this. i bought some time. what i worry about is we' nitel. you know, president biden is around the country every time there is a new semiconductor plant to go dedicated. new york.st up at one in upstate he's been to arizona where taiwan semdu intel and others are building in the southwest. my concern is we're not building our capacity fast enough that. we will not have to be relia tan another qu pose, and this is all cited, will the mistakes that putin made in his invasion of ukraine prove to be his undoing? leading him to reach into his nuclear arsenal? or will th u.s., you know, short attention span,igev's do'e nuclear arsenal partf this first milley had this great general milley, which was that we are faced with the nuclear paradox that the the russians do in ukraine. the more likely their nuclear use, the better they do. the least likely their nuclear used. and that the high point of the to use nuclear weapons. and i tell story in

orban met with not only vladimir putin, but also xi jinping.ou think the meeting between trump and orban signals? >> it is disturbing. i remember thinking back to hungary when they were one of the first countries that wanted to join nato from the warsaw pact. because they did not want to be a part of the russian orbit, i think orban has defended the russian revolution of 1976, and his affinity for putin and xi jinping is a bad sign. but his meeting with trump gives some indication of where trump's leading czar. carl: if you look at what came out of this nato summit, dado accused china of enabling russia in this war. it also warned iran of supplying ballistic missiles. both countries deny involvement, but how do you see the role of russia and china in this ukraine conflict, and how do you believe the alliance should be attacking that? >> both roles are significant. china has been laundering money through its opaque financial system, increasing their purchases of russian oil and gas despite nato sanctions. and generally providing political cover

the four principles outlined by president xi jinping constitute china's fundamental approach to solving the crisis. on this basis, china and brazil jointly outlined six common understandings for the political settlement of the ukraine crisis. so. as you heard, it is about the ukrainian crisis, it is about the conflict, and it is about the fact that china offers to resolve this conflict or crisis at the negotiating table, and in connection with with this, from the chinese side, more than a year ago , china's 12 so-called positions were released, which ultimately repeat mainly ... this course, as well as the so-called six points agreed with brazil in may, which also insist that the war must stop , again, without using the word war and without calling on russia to withdraw its troops from ukrainian territory, but many international partners are calling on china to use its opportunities in order to... incline russia to end the war and promote of peace, and ukraine as well, here is the most important, in my opinion, quote that came out today from the lips of the ukrainian minister of foreign

to guangzhou the foreign minister there, wang yi, the second man in the chinese hierarchy after xi jinpingthe conversation lasted more than three hours, the prc continues to call russian aggression the ukrainian crisis, but expressed it again. to help achieve peace, exactly peace, not a truce, - emphasized dmytro kuleba. i spoke about the importance of a just peace, not just any peace, and my chinese colleague himself added that a just and lasting peace is very important, because usually it is we who constantly say that the peace must be permanent, that is, lasting and just . but which means a just peace to china, reason. beijing officially calls the expansion of nato the east, its peace proposals essentially equate the victim and the aggressor, the celestial empire is not going to give up its strategic partnership with russia, but china is not the only country that has real influence on the kremlin, and therefore ukraine and the west would like see paki at the second peace summit. preparations for which are already underway. negotiations will make no sense. if the russians lead them, as t

you can be in nato, you can be in the european union, you can be friends with donald trump, meet xi jinpingnd vladimir putin at the same time and go to kyiv. no one, you know, will stop orbán, whose time has come. here he is, showing. this is, in principle, the model that they would all like to implement. so that they can focus on trump so that they can take money from china so that they have nothing for it, so that they can somehow understand moscow's worries and so that they have nothing for it, this is such political multipolarity is leaving and, by the way, the multipolar world about , what vladimir putin says is what they say, and by the way, at the same time, they would like to come to kyiv and show that they support the courageous ukrainian people, you see how their position has all changed, marine le pen went there to orban. and she says that she is supports ukraine almost like george meleni, with the only difference that george meleni does not go to moscow and has never been there , unlike marine le pen and matteo salvini, who also joined orban's group, the leader of the league par

where is this going, remember the walk of the park the joe biden took with xi jinping last year, thes had to be on full display as well how are our adversaries viewing this. >> with regard to china have a window of opportunity and what concerns me, xi jinping has personal incentives to go to work, going to work is popular with the chinese people but it would prevent other senior communist party figures from deposing xi jinping who is now in trouble. we may not be able to deter this guy he might be motivated solely by what's going on in the chinese capital. maria: my interpretation of china's position on our election to what's going on right now. i am thinking they might actually be disappointed that the entire world just sold biden on display the way that they've seen them over the course of the last several years. maria: they want their man in place. they know they fought their way with him and i would have to guess that there probably a little bit concerned in biden's performance, what do you say about that. >> are allies are concerned as well we saw this from the polish foreign mi
