welcome to the show. us secretary of state and to the blanket and has met with china as president on the 3rd and final day of a visit fraught with tensions. the 2 nations disagree on a range of issues from ukraine to china is territorial claims, but blinking stress that it was crucial for washington and beijing to maintain open channels of communication. of the 2 rival powers try to find common ground. china is president shooting, being welcomed us secretary of state antony blinking in beijing. despite core differences on trade, security and geo politics, she expressed hope for the future. china is willing to see a confident and open us with prosperity and development. it is hoped that the us can also look at china's development positively. only when this
8:02 pm
fundamental issue is resolved and the 1st step is taken with china us relations be truly stabilized, improved and move forward. during is 3 day visit blinking raise concerns about china is territorial claims in taiwan and the south china sea. he also accused of the people's republic of china, or p, r. c of fueling the war and ukraine by supporting russia's weapons, industry, and my discussions today. i reiterated, are serious concern about the p r. c. providing components that are powering rushes, prove war of aggression against ukraine. russia would struggle to sustain its assault on ukraine without trying to support the china is foreign minister, has accused the us of trying to stifle its economic and technological development as well as its regional expansion.
8:03 pm
the china, us relationship is facing more negative factors and all kinds of disruptions. china's legitimate to develop and drugs have been unreasonably suppressed and all co interest of facing challenges show to china and the u. s. stay on the right, the costs of moving forward with stability, or a ton to a downward spiral. so this is a major question facing all 2 countries and tests our sincerity and the ability. the path forward includes holding formal talks about the risks of artificial intelligence in the coming weeks earlier i spoke to and george back this and economist and research associates at the china center at oxford university and the china institute. so us and gave us his take on the curve relations between china and the us. well, i think that both sides of trying to stabilize what are,
8:04 pm
what does it affect, you know, not a great relationship because they both have interest to do so. in china, you know, the economy is in bad shape. a bad city thing is trying to sort of steer the economy away from its reliance on property and infrastructure to something new and very verify. you find employment. i'll think everybody knows these kinds of stories in america. it's got involvements, obviously in the middle east. and ukraine is a presidential election coming up in november. so nobody really wants that explosion or a rift that we saw, for example, during the balloon incident last year. and then you know, before about the over nancy police, he's busy to to taiwan. so yeah, there's a bit of bladder already and fuzzy language that you can hear on both sides. but if you, you don't have to kind of look, well, listen terribly,
8:05 pm
a find the actually to hear that there is quite a tension between the united states and china. and actually the chinese side, i thought, was quite reckoning. why don't you use language as to what was with robert inappropriate for a meeting like this, to be honest at blink, and wants china to stop supporting rushes war in ukraine? both of us and china are interested in stabilizing ties instead of there. but is china keen enough to change policy in what is causing no limits, friendship with moscow? yeah, i, i don't think so. to be honest, i mean, to be fact, you know, chinese banks have been applied capital not to be seen to be facilitating the financing of, uh, you know, military commerce or anything like that for fear of the secondary sections which the united states martin levy. but obviously us intelligence must have some kind of
8:06 pm
information about the activities of chinese companies, uh, shipping products and uh, you know, military goods. so i support goods to the, to the russians. um, you know, which may be financed by smaller banks, which in not really in the main kind of focus of international finance. so i think that's the kind of just a fling cause warning, which is that there wouldn't be further sanctions if the china doesn't really kind of sit on this. i suspect that's exactly what's going to happen by the way. a china and b u. s. you mentioned the economy, there is always a huge topic between them because they are the world's 2 largest economies. they meet each other, but they're also in fierce competition with each other. they accuse each other and they did so again today and basically sabotaging each other's growth. what is the way forward here? that's very hard to say. i mean, you know, if you look at the areas where they think of where blinked comes, uh,
8:07 pm
the american readouts at least, you know, said that they had actually had some, some constructive discussions was about, you know, a, i governance about people to people exchanges. so students may be going backwards and forwards and academics because of a climate change, you know, is obviously something they can talk about. french, no control, you know, wish the chinese have promised to get on top of the various kinds of areas. obviously there's discussion about the ministry of dog actually has resume, so that's a good thing. but, you know, generally yellow was talking about over capacity when she was in china a couple of weeks ago, drink and was talking about it again today. the you commission itself has kind of concerns about this as well. and the problem is that the chinese economy, you know, what it's endemic, it structurally kind of built into the model is to kind of over producer to concentrate on supply rubber band demand to the economy. so that's why we've had
8:08 pm
problems with steel and aluminum in the past. why we have problems nowadays will be electric vehicles and batteries of solar panels and so on, ship building and logistics. so there's no real kind of, um resolution that i can see because, you know, the chinese model is not gonna change for the benefit of the states or europe and they will just carry on doing what they do. and so we will have, unfortunately more kind of trade friction, i think, to come those george magnus from the china center at oxford university. thank you so much for your analysis and your time. thank you. and a quick look now and some other stories making headlines around the world today. at least 10 people have been killed in a fire in a hotel them the city of 4 to our legs were in southern brazil. officials, the building was used without authorization and lacked proper licensing, as well as emergency evacuation procedures. poles have closed and the 2nd state of
8:09 pm
india multi face a national election. millions of voters cast ballots across the 13 states and union territory, and common prime minister and the rand remote is seeking a rare 3rd term as a new nationalist, b j. p is also aiming for a super image. busy ready, let's go to empower his coalition to change the constitution. the french and german defense ministers have ratified an agreement in paris to jointly manufacture and newly designed battle tank. francis sebastian lake or new and germany's forest. the story is described, the cooperation of the storage project worth billions of yours also includes a new system for data links between numerous weapons platforms. students at the university of california, los angeles, have joined a wave of pro palestinian citizens on campuses across the us. demonstrators are demanding a ceasefire and gaza and or calling on the university to cut all ties with israel.
8:10 pm
hundreds have been arrested at similar protests as you as authorities cracked down on the growing movement. police here in berlin and have been clearing a pro palestinian protest camp set up outside the german parliament building. the group created to be in camp meant more than 2 weeks ago, saying they wanted the german government to stop sending weapons and military supports to israel. police say they acted to band the camp after some protesters repeatedly use band symbols and slogans. a reporter spoke to protesters and police . so we've been here. what does this now uh, exist at 60 and 17 days, just over 2 weeks and we've been peaceful and we've been harassed by the police every single day. they have given us the stupidest restrictions they have forbidden us from using language, is that on german and english, they have a criminal lives. i'll save criminalize our prayers, our songs are workshops and now they are there a session reasoning for a big thing,
8:11 pm
this time that we had a sofa and that we are hurting the grass. this protest, campus trouble, protest, compass being prohibited because there have been a piece of violations of the rules for public assembly and criminal offenses committed. thomas about the protest leaders did not intervene to prevent this from happening. is this by him not to that. so the protest of being deemed a threat to public safety kind of made a mistake if there are no miles or measures to prevent more crime so i can cite meant to hatred for him. that's an our political correspondence. i mean young has more on how the authorities and germany are dealing with pro palestinian protest this. yeah, well i, i see so in this particular case, the police said that had been criminality and violence around this camp. i think probably they were also a bit concerned because it was low teaching rights in the heart of the government
8:12 pm
districts here in berlin. but more generally, i think it's fair to say that police have often felt they needed to police these kind of pro palestinian demonstrations that we've seen over the last few months pretty closely in some cases breaking them up at there. is this a allegation of incitement that coming from these protests in some cases. and they use all in particular of band slogans and band uh, images and so on a is a, is a problem. it can be difficult for the police to decide exactly when the law has been broken. for instance, with the slogans to the a just wanted in, in arabic or in other languages. you know, that may be difficult for the police or in some cases, phrases when maps of the region of the middle east region. a held up in the palestinian colors that may be problems. sometimes they've taken
8:13 pm
a sort of precaution. we approach pulling people out or even in the closing the demonstrations down and leaving it. of course in the end is the quotes that to decide when the lower has actually been broken me. we have seen pro palestinian protest spreading on university campuses in the us lately. how strong, how big is the movement in germany as well? i think it's fair to say that there has been many pro palestinian demonstrations both before the 7th of october. how mass attacks against israel, and even in a more concentrated form sense, and some of them have attracted thousands, in some cases, even tens of thousands of participants. not seeing every case have they complied with the police requirements that some large demonstrations should be registered in advance. and as i say, that's been the concerns about the races of the law about anti semitism.
8:14 pm
and so, you know, there is a polarized atmosphere. i, i think around many of these demonstrations, but the police of course, and the all sorts has generally always say as well, but they all concerned about the freedom of speech just as much as freedom to demonstrate freedom of expression is as important also as making sure that nobody breaks the little dw political correspondence, simon young. thank you, simon. so just as a reminder of the top story, we'll filing for you today. you a secretary of state anthony blanket has stress the importance of washington and beijing, maintaining open channels of communication. lincoln was speaking to the press after a meeting with china as president and changing, paying on the 3rd and final day of a visit, fraud with tension. and that's all from the news for now. next we have
8:15 pm
a documentary on modern day exorcise operating. here in europe, there is of course more news on our website, w, w dot com and on our youtube and other social media channels, there is the, the we news. thank you so much for your company. the innovation green, the green revolution global. so listen, the whole lot of crime, it's probably up to speed. if the care we subscribe to those channels. we've got every friday subscribe to plan. it's a good a.
