00:00:20Donald Trump announces there's an energy cease fire between Moscow and
00:00:24Kiev just today after saying Ukraine needs a new leader. While
00:00:28Russia has yet to comment Vladimir. is caught by surprise, saying Kief will
00:00:32agree if Moscow does the
00:00:33same. Saudi defenses
00:00:37intercept another cruise missile near Riyad's main airport, that's
00:00:41after the fies warn against anyone using Saudi airspace following their
00:00:45devastating strike on the airport which left 12 people dead and more
00:00:49than 300 wounded.
00:00:51of The Fukis confirmed to RT they were behind the attack.
00:00:55These attacks are Yemeny attacks. We do not do this out of revenge or to take
00:00:58vengeance
00:00:59but rather. forced the Saudi leadership to accept a comprehensive and permanent
00:01:03peace by agreeing to end the
00:01:04war.
00:01:12New Delhi is hit by wave of protest for second day
00:01:16in a row over alleged electoral
00:01:18of fraud,
00:01:18a claim that the Indian government
00:01:20denies.
00:01:25of of
00:01:30And it's
00:01:30of time for the news on RT international. My name is Igor Piskanov. Welcome to the
00:01:34program. Barely an hour seems to pass without Donald Trump
00:01:38making a new announcement on Russia and Ukraine from diesel deals with
00:01:42Moscow to calling for new leader in Kieve. The US president is now
00:01:46claiming the waring nations have both agreed immediate halt
00:01:49of to attacks on each other's energy
00:01:51infrastructure. Effective
00:01:55immediately, there is an energy sacefire in the war between Russia and
00:01:59of Ukraine. both parties have agreed, do not break
00:02:02it. well, this is the second time in the span of months the
00:02:06Donald Trump has declared surprisingly to the entire
00:02:10world that Russia and Ukraine had agreed to an
00:02:13energy for last time, Zelensky came out very quickly and
00:02:17said, there's no such deal in place. this
00:02:21time
00:02:22of zelenski has also come out and said that this is the first time he's heard of
00:02:26it, that
00:02:27of
00:02:27of if Russia
00:02:28of and the United States read to an
00:02:31of energy sees fire that please inform Ukraine
00:02:34of and Ukraine would be willing to join in, which is in stark
00:02:38contrast to what Zelensky said previously, the
00:02:42last time Trump had declared an energy fire between
00:02:46Russia and Ukraine, Zelensky came out with all manner
00:02:50of conditions now under
00:02:53tremendous pressure with Trump himself coming
00:02:57out as well as and senators supporting
00:03:01trump, congress people coming out and saying that,
00:03:04you know what, perhaps it's time for Zelemsky to
00:03:08go, should have never started, you wouldn't have lost 30% of your
00:03:12country already, you've lost 30% of your country and you've had
00:03:16over million people killed, but he could have
00:03:20settled it
00:03:20of many times and he chose not to, that's a war that should have never
00:03:24started, and I think it's time for Ukraine to get new
00:03:27president, Donald Trump. uh
00:03:30referring there of course to the multitude
00:03:34of peace deals that Basha had put forward, that the United
00:03:38States had approved the deal made between the United States
00:03:42and Russia anchrage in
00:03:45of Alaska during the meeting between Putin and Trump, they agreed
00:03:48in a framework there, Ukraine rejected it time and time
00:03:52again for years, Ukraine has either rejected or demanded
00:03:56conditions, but Russia simply wouldn't accept, and here Donald Trump.
00:04:00coming outright to the public to cameras saying this
00:04:04person is incapable of making a deal,
00:04:07perhaps another should come in, they should hold
00:04:10elections. Zelensky previously had dismissed any
00:04:14notion of elections, his
00:04:16of arguments had been that simply too many people have left Ukraine,
00:04:23of of then Zelensky complained that simply too many people now live as Russian citizens in Zaparoji
00:04:27region, Herson region.
00:04:30a elections he said are simply impossible,
00:04:34of never mind that russia
00:04:36in staged elections in september, now the tune has
00:04:40changed, now he's
00:04:42of demanding i see far, 60 days to
00:04:46hold elections in Ukraine,
00:04:48of please tell Putin, give us two months,
00:04:5260 days of total cifire, 60
00:04:55days and we will organize elections, of course we will be...
00:05:00ready for any choice of our people exactly
00:05:04ukrainian people
00:05:04how quickly changed
00:05:08his mind on elections now that donald trump again?
00:05:12united states official, even
00:05:16musk piled on saying that perhaps it is time for Zelensky to
00:05:20move on for someone new to come in, nevertheless this
00:05:24is all you know in star contrast to Zelensky before, now
00:05:27he's what can only be described, this panic
00:05:30mode, you you've had reports, endless reports of
00:05:34him calling European officials seeking their
00:05:38support in both the sp, the United States.
00:05:42regarding elections, but also America's insistance ahold
00:05:46to strikes on Russian oil refineries, and that is
00:05:50what what is at the root of this? previously, when Donald Trump
00:05:54very publicly came out and said Ukraine must stop these
00:05:57strikes, Russia, of course, before this conflict, supplying
00:06:0120, more than 20% the
00:06:03world's uh global, gas supplies
00:06:07and mass of shortage caused by Ukrainian
00:06:11strikes. hurts everyone, it is felt by everyone,
00:06:15but no one quives like the United States, where
00:06:19elections depend on the price of uh
00:06:22gas, of petrol, of diesel at the
00:06:25pump, and the United States and Russia have made it deal
00:06:29whereby Putin has agreed to supply the United States with
00:06:33diesel fuel again, which is manufactured or made
00:06:37at Russian refineries which are under attack by
00:06:41Ukraine. Previously when Donald Trump called on Zelensky to
00:06:45half those strikes, Zelensky came out and said
00:06:49no, we're going to burn all of, which led
00:06:53to Donald Trump of course coming out and say such
00:06:56time for Zelensky to go, Star contrast to
00:07:00what Zelensky said previously, why are
00:07:04they blaming you for the continuation of this
00:07:07war, because these
00:07:11people, can't find a key how to
00:07:15stop Putin, because it's
00:07:19more difficult to stop
00:07:23Putin than to pressure
00:07:25others, because it's more
00:07:29simple to speak about the prices and connect
00:07:32it with Ukraine, obvious
00:07:36Russia doesn't depend on the good will the
00:07:40Congress the United States or... European leaders,
00:07:44Russia manufactures, it has its own economy, it has
00:07:48its own sovereign decision making process, Ukraine on the
00:07:52other hand, entirely dependent on the United States,
00:07:56nevertheless, we have seen, happening in
00:08:00real time a change in Zelensky's demena,
00:08:04from eternal war to, much more flexible
00:08:08approach where again he is trying to
00:08:11appease. Donald Trump. Earlier we spoke with
00:08:15former U.S. Marine Core Intelligence Officer Scott Rider and he says
00:08:19time is long passed for Zelinski to be making any demands and he's not in a
00:08:23position to dictate any rules. Vlodimir
00:08:26Zelinski, I
00:08:27mean it's it's difficult to call him president, even though he claims that title is, it's been
00:08:31pointed out, his mandate expired a while back and
00:08:35he um, hasn't held a new
00:08:37election, but uh, Zelinsky is in the position to
00:08:41dictate terms to no. uh, he's losing the war on the
00:08:45battlefield, he's losing the war economically, he's losing the
00:08:49war uh politically, both at home and abroad.
00:08:52um, the the bottom line is that president Trump is
00:08:56absolutely correct here, that uh, it's time for Zelensky to go, the
00:08:59question is, who will replace him and will
00:09:03this alter the the the reality that
00:09:07currently has uh settled in over Ukraine, Ukraine is defeated
00:09:11state, the uh experiment that Europe and United States
00:09:14foisted on Ukraine uh in beginning this conflict um
00:09:18by empowering western Ukrainian nationalists this experiment has
00:09:22failed and unless you replace Zelinski with somebody
00:09:26who recognizes the failure of this experiment and acts
00:09:30um accordingly you're just going to get a continuation the
00:09:33same. There's been a new attack
00:09:37near Riyad's main international airport. The Saudi Lad coalition says it's
00:09:41air defenses intercept. and destroyed cruise missile. A
00:09:44projectile struck passenger hole number four at King Khalid
00:09:48International Airport in aread, sparking fire inside the
00:09:52terminal,
00:09:53and this marks the fourth attack on the airport in just one week, raising
00:09:56deep concerns over the security of Saudi Arabia's critical
00:09:59infrastructure. Some the footage here circulating on social media, and
00:10:03it comes after the hoothies warned anyone from using Saudi Arabia's air
00:10:07or sea ports. The
00:10:11Yemeny Armed. forces renew their warning to all shipping companies, airlines,
00:10:15experts, employees, workers and travelers against using Saudi airports and
00:10:19airspace as they are exposed to targeting and are a theater for
00:10:23operations by our forces with exception the airports of Mecca
00:10:26al-Mukarrama and Medina Al-Munawara. We urge everyone to
00:10:30take our warning seriously and Saudi Arabia bears responsibility for any
00:10:34failed interceptions. On Saturday, 12 people were killed
00:10:38and more than 300 wounded in houti attack on King Khalid
00:10:42International Airport in Riyadh. Unverified footage circulating
00:10:46online appears to show the immediate aftermath inside the airport. Moscow has
00:10:49condemned to the strike and hold on both sides to abandon attacks on
00:10:53civilian infrastructure. a Riad based correspondent says the
00:10:57strike inflicted the substantial damage to terminals which handle both
00:11:00domestic and international
00:11:02flights.
00:11:06Indeed, this statement was issued by the Saudi General Authority of Civil
00:11:10Aviation, approximately six hours after the initial announcement made
00:11:13earlier today. It provided details on the number of casualties,
00:11:17confirming 12 dead and 309 wounded, including several
00:11:21in critical condition currently receiving treatment at hospitals in
00:11:26Among the dead were four Saudi nationals, two Bangladeshis, one
00:11:30American citizen, one Egyptian, one Jordanian, one
00:11:33Syrian, and one Palestinian. May they all rest in peace.
00:11:37Airport operations remain suspended for the time being as a
00:11:40precautionary measure to ensure the safety of facilities and the
00:11:44continuation of operational processes. The recent statement also
00:11:48confirms that efforts are underway to assess the extent the material
00:11:51damages in coordination with authorities. Today's toll. present
00:11:55the highest recorded from either huti or Iranian attacks during assaults on the
00:11:59kingdom of Saudi Arabia. I must also mention the attempt to maintain
00:12:03operations at King Fodd International Airport in Damasham, which is
00:12:07situated outside the city. We are currently managing the situation as
00:12:11there has also been an incident outside the airport area. This provides a
00:12:14summary of what has transpired thus far and we are waiting further details
00:12:18regarding the injuries that are being treated. Furthermore, we have received
00:12:22information concerning the extent the damage to that. According to our
00:12:26sources, the areas impacted were terminal 3 and terminal 4.
00:12:30Terminal 3 is designated for domestic flights between cities in Saudi
00:12:33Arabia, while terminal 4 accommodates certain international
00:12:36carriers. A senior kuthi spokesperson told
00:12:40RT that the group's actions were a direct response to aggression by the sudis
00:12:44against civilian areas in
00:12:46Yemen. Yes, these
00:12:50attacks are Yemeni attacks after 12 years of Saudi aggression destroying
00:12:54Yemen. infrastructure, whether airports, ports, even wedding and
00:12:58funeral halls, as well as schools, hospitals and markets. It targeted
00:13:01everything in Yemen and targeted and destroyed all infrastructure, and today it
00:13:05acknowledges that airports are civilian facilities that must not be
00:13:09targeted under international law, but we say that we deal with Saudi
00:13:13Arabia in kind, and our military operations deep inside the Saudi
00:13:16entity will continue and will not end except by destroying all Saudi
00:13:20infrastructure belonging to the government, whether military facilities, airports, or
00:13:24even port... and any vital facilities belonging to the Saudi regime. We
00:13:28do not do this out of revenge or to take vengeance, but rather to force the Saudi
00:13:32leadership to accept a comprehensive and permanent peace by agreeing to end the war
00:13:36and end the siege by both sides. The Saudi leadership can agree to
00:13:40achieve peace, and these are Yemen's demands. This
00:13:44comes amid a rapid escalation the conflict in Yemen. The hoothies have
00:13:47released footage which they say shows dozens of fighters from the saudie backed
00:13:51presidential council surrendering. And the video comes as Saudi
00:13:55Arabia and its regional partners plan to step up their military cooperation
00:13:59on Monday, raising concerns that the conflict could expand
00:14:03further and draw more countries in. Earlier
00:14:07this week, Saudiled forces in Yemen already destroyed three the
00:14:10Khuthi's rocket launch platforms, which they say claim were
00:14:14used to quote, threatened regional security. The Saudi
00:14:18Air Force was said to have carried out 59 air strikes and
00:14:22missile attacks in just 24 hours, causing mult. full
00:14:25casualties, and for more on
00:14:29this, let's cross live saudi political researcher Khalid
00:14:32batarfi, welcome to the program sir, the airport in
00:14:36Riad has been struck again with the tax targeting terminal four and
00:14:40the surrounding area, what do you make these repeated
00:14:42attacks? well, it's
00:14:46reminds me of what did
00:14:49in in the early years
00:14:53of 2000, "when they attacked
00:14:57everything that's related to the government and affected
00:15:00civilians and that the goal is
00:15:04to force the government to acknowledge them
00:15:07to accept their
00:15:10demands to show the world that they can do
00:15:14this, show their supporters they can win and their
00:15:18winning is against us, all of us,
00:15:22it's not against the government alone. so
00:15:26what thehis are trying to do have
00:15:29been tried by other militias
00:15:33that is being supported and directed by Iran.
00:15:38and Daesh and they failed and this one
00:15:41will also fail because the Saudi Saudi Arabia will not
00:15:45accept those demands,
00:15:48so this will continue, Saudi Arabia will attack all
00:15:51sources of power of
00:15:54fire in in there in Yemen
00:15:58and would support the Yemani government all the
00:16:02way, but why do you think uh the airport was
00:16:05specifically targeted? well it has
00:16:08symbolic meaning, mean it, it affects it the
00:16:12capital of Saudi Arabia, so
00:16:15attacking the airport is more important than
00:16:19attacking say abha or najran, which is
00:16:23they used to attack for for many years, now
00:16:27they are trying to show that they can reach the
00:16:31capital of riyadh and they can attack
00:16:34its airport and they can infl damage
00:16:38and that's what the militias
00:16:41and the tourists think all the
00:16:44way and every time they
00:16:48attack civilian targets. do you think we can
00:16:52anticipate additional security measures or reinforcements at Saudi
00:16:56airports in response? of course, there will
00:17:00be improvement in security and
00:17:03ability to intercept these miss.
00:17:09uh
00:17:09more and more we get experience, we have a long experience with
00:17:13hundreds of missiles from this terrorist
00:17:16group and will have to adapt to the
00:17:20new equipment they got from
00:17:22Iran uh and we'll have
00:17:26to to deal with them, we have other
00:17:29choice, and the Mecca
00:17:32defense pact involving Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan
00:17:36is now active. with forces being deployed a mid another attack on Saudi
00:17:40infrastructure, what developments do you expect to see
00:17:43next? well, this is defense pact
00:17:47and
00:17:47the those forces are to help in defending Saudi
00:17:51Arabia, but to attack the
00:17:54sources of fire, to support the
00:17:58Yemen government, this is another, this is another matter and
00:18:02it has another allies, some these countries
00:18:05are part of... of this and part
00:18:08the red sea alliance and part
00:18:12the alliance, the islamic alliance against
00:18:16terror, so what they do, what
00:18:20they are expected to do is is up
00:18:23to the alliances they are part
00:18:26of, but so far
00:18:30the the pact was
00:18:33activated and they are doing what
00:18:37were supposed to do by providing logistic,
00:18:40intelligence and defense
00:18:44equipment of Saudi Arabia, and President Trump
00:18:47stated, quote, we'll make decision when asked whether the US
00:18:51would join Saudi strikes against the hoouties, what would potential US
00:18:55military involvement imply for Yemen and the wider
00:18:58region? the US is
00:19:02imported already by providing intelligence
00:19:05and cooperate and many
00:19:08matters, security
00:19:11matters, also by profiding what
00:19:14saudi forces needed of equipment and
00:19:17emotion, what you are talking about is
00:19:20whether the united states will help
00:19:24in attacking this
00:19:28sources of fire and whether they will
00:19:32support directly the yemani government, well that's
00:19:36a matter to... considered and according to Trump, he didn't
00:19:39decide it yet,
00:19:41and finally, how vulnerable is Saudi Arabia's critical infrastructure to
00:19:45missile and drone attacks and are its air defenses
00:19:49capable of managing this threat?
00:19:53100%, of course no, 90%
00:19:57so far is very good and put us on the top
00:20:00the world achievements,
00:20:04but a country as fast as Saudi Arabia,
00:20:08uh so many cities, so many oil installation, so many
00:20:12ports, we have 28 airports in Saudi
00:20:14Arabia, so protecting this much land
00:20:18and this much facilities will
00:20:22require lots of investment, lots of
00:20:25work, and I believe they are working on this, the other
00:20:29side uh is getting improved
00:20:32abilities like the new missiles they are
00:20:36using. against Saudi Arabia uh they have all
00:20:40the uh the fingerprints of
00:20:43Iran
00:20:44on on that uh and they have also Iranian
00:20:48experts and companies and others
00:20:51helping them to do that, so let us wait and see,
00:20:55but I expect Saudi Arabia to improve its facility
00:20:59as well to respond to all this new
00:21:01development. All right, Khalid batarfi, sorry
00:21:05political researcher, I appreciate you speaking to us today on this.
00:21:09You're welcome sir,
00:21:12now with Saudi Arabia coming under attack from the Hultis a daily basis, the
00:21:16Mecca defensive agreement between the Kingdom, Turkey and Pakistan is in.
00:21:28Let me stress again, my friends, that this is defense agreement. When a
00:21:31state party to this agreement comes under attack, you stand by it to help it
00:21:35defend itself. This is not an offensive agreement. In other words,
00:21:39Turkey will not send its forces to the territory of another state to carry out
00:21:43attack. In Mecca, three leaders signed a promise, attack
00:21:47on one is attack on all. Turkia. Saudi
00:21:50Arabia, Pakistan. Two months on, that promise is
00:21:54under fire. Hoothi missiles and drones keep hitting Saudi airports and
00:21:58oil sites. Meeting in Riad, the Mecca Alliance agreed to send
00:22:02forces to the kingdom and quickly. The committee
00:22:05decided to move immediately to the practical implementation the collective
00:22:09defense commitments and to take the necessary measures to provide the agreed
00:22:13military forces and capabilities and ensure their rapid deployment in the
00:22:16kingdom. In accordance with the approved arrangements in the nation. legislation
00:22:20the parties, thereby enhancing readiness, military integration, and the
00:22:24collective capacity to confront and counter threats. President Erdogan has
00:22:28spelled out what that support could look like: such
00:22:32support could take the form of intelligence, logistical or ammunition
00:22:35assistance. More advanced military support could also be considered depending on the scale
00:22:39the threat. Unka keeps the details to itself, and reports
00:22:43are filling the silence, special forces, pilots and aircraft,
00:22:47helping defend Riyad and the Holy Cities. an American official
00:22:51says the help includes Turkish drone operators, none of it is on the
00:22:54record. Monday's statement does set one condition, forces
00:22:58deploy in accordance with the national legislation of each country. In
00:23:02turkia,
00:23:02that means parliament, and parliament hasn't even ratified the
00:23:06pact. As for the Mecca agreement, the process here has
00:23:10in fact matured in terms the work done by the ministry. But of
00:23:14course, for the agreement to take effect, it will come to parliament, and since this work
00:23:18has matured, it will be sent to... parliament within a few days.
00:23:22Ankara's ambitions reach beyond the red sea. David Bachchel, who leads
00:23:26the nationalist MHP, the ruling party's partner in
00:23:29parliament, says the pact will elevate the country to the center
00:23:32of global geopolitics. This is an exceptionally
00:23:36sound and important agreement. Its tendency towards expansion is also
00:23:40of immense strategic value. If these efforts are carried out under Turkey is
00:23:44leadership, this will bring us to the center, making us much more reputable
00:23:48in the world. So the next vote in Ankara is a
00:23:52treaty, not on troops. Sending soldiers would take a second decision of
00:23:56its own. The arithmetic favors the government, the Ruling
00:23:59Alliance, the Justice and Development Party, and the nationalist movement
00:24:03party, holds 326 a parliament 600
00:24:07seats. The largest opposition party wants no part in it, and its
00:24:11leader Uzgruza says, signing defense pack with a country at
00:24:14war makes Turkia a party to that conflict.
00:24:18International agreements will have.
00:24:20to be approved in this parliament if there are soldiers and weapons involved, we do not
00:24:24accept being part of Trump's Middle East order, we do not accept the adventurism of
00:24:28Trump, which will send soldiers to the deserts of Yemen for 100
00:24:31years. Ankara frames its role as defending Saudi
00:24:35Arabia. has message for
00:24:39Ankara and Islamabad. the
00:24:42Saudis want to involve regional powers, not only from the Arab arena,
00:24:46but even within the Islamic world. they aim to bring in the...
00:25:20and RT in Istanbul and to
00:25:24India now there where for second day a row New Delhi has been
00:25:28hit with protests over alleged electoral fraud. The government rejects the
00:25:32claim citing India's economic growth and the prime minister's popularity
00:25:36as the key to recent success at the ballot
00:25:38box. Fete
00:25:40explains. Now thousands of protesters have been
00:25:44detained by the Delhi Police and commandos and forces
00:25:48from the other forces. as well which includes CRPF,
00:25:52Raf, SSB, BSF etc. Now these
00:25:55protesters were detained because they were year out on
00:25:58the streets of New Delhi and Central Delhi protesting
00:26:01against. Kumar who is the chief election
00:26:05commissioner of India and they are demanding his resignation
00:26:09along with other demands like scrapping of SIR voter
00:26:12list because over 130 million people were left
00:26:16out the voter list. Now remember these protests were lead by the
00:26:20Cookroad Janta party that is the CJP. However, the main
00:26:24members and the founder of this party was detained
00:26:28just yesterday as soon as they landed in Delhi for the protest.
00:26:31Today as... of now they have been released and they also held a press
00:26:35briefing where they have said and ensured everybody that all
00:26:39these protests would still continue till their
00:26:43demands are met. now remember all these areas of New Delhi
00:26:47and central Delhi are coming under the BNSS
00:26:50163 section which enforces the
00:26:54rule that more than four people cannot gather in one location
00:26:57and if done so then they would be detained hence lot of
00:27:01protesters more than thousands of protesters have been detained
00:27:04in these two days, now
00:27:08the police have not seen any violence happening
00:27:12during these protest, however the police are
00:27:15taking extra care that these protests do
00:27:19not go further, they are not allowing people to gather in one
00:27:23place, over 200 or 300 police
00:27:27march in the streets these lanes in central
00:27:31Delhi and New Delhi. where they try to detain these protesters
00:27:34and control the crowd movement, in fact we
00:27:38have also witnessed that there have been water cannons,
00:27:42vehicles, lot of police vans and buses to
00:27:45detain these protesters and also lot of
00:27:49tier gas vehicles placed and stationed
00:27:52in some areas where these protests are going on. now all
00:27:56these protests were going to happen a designated place that's the jantar
00:28:00mantar here in Delhi however, the permission was denied for the
00:28:04protest to happen there, which is exactly why a lot of
00:28:08protesters, including student union members
00:28:11started protesting just near the areas of jantar
00:28:15mantar, which is also this place called cannot place,
00:28:19now lot of protesters have already been detained,
00:28:23but people are still coming in, in fact the
00:28:26important thing to note here is that people
00:28:30are still coming in even though, CJP has said that these protests
00:28:34would continue and tomorrow there is a chance
00:28:38that different political parties which are the opposition
00:28:41political parties might also carry forward with
00:28:45such protest and with the same demands. In fact last week we
00:28:49also witnessed that India block which is the
00:28:53multi-party opposition block of India
00:28:57also held a series of protests back to back
00:29:00demanding the same things.
00:29:05This is all the news we have for you this hour and Rori Susi will be joining you in the studio
00:29:09in about 30 minutes with more news and analysis to stay with
00:29:12us.
00:29:31Gentlemen, I confess my self increasingly disconcerted by the Russians
00:29:35rather alarming advances in Asia.
00:29:37Indeed. Word has reached us that they have of late dispatched
00:29:41their first steamship to Bombay.
00:29:45India must remain
00:29:48hours.
00:29:54Their fews came true. The Russians really did come to India,
00:29:58but not as colonizers and we quickly founded.
00:30:02common
00:30:03language,
00:30:22hello and welcome to world's apart. if you were asked to
00:30:25describe the United States relationship with other countries in three
00:30:29words, what would you choose? construct? active,
00:30:32strategic and stable, are almost certainly not near
00:30:36the top the list, and yet, according to President Trump and President
00:30:40She, this trial will supposedly form the basis
00:30:44the US-China relationship going forward. how
00:30:47realistic is that? well, to discuss that, I'm now joined by Andrew Lung
00:30:51a China specialist and Hong Kong's former chief
00:30:55representative for the UK, Russia, and number of
00:30:59EU member states.
