Ive been physical and woke up chinese president. Shes been paying says china and germany should see common ground. He made the comments in a meeting with the german chancellor le filters on a 3 day visit to china is made with the rise of injury. And by doing he, its his 1st trip to the countrys instrument. He belongs to strategy to avoid over dependence on china. She says relations between the 2, but continue to grow as long as both sides respect each other. I. Yes, im trying to, its all the shows only the 2 countries should view and develop bilateral relations from a long term and strategic perspective. And they should Work Together to inject more stability and certainty into the world of being cheap. But should, lets talk about that with dont use richard walcott, our chief International Editor of poppy and chris, i also joined just from aging. Ill start with you fabi and how that meeting go between the chinese and jeff and leads yeah, 1st of all, it is quite a remarkable. They dont have show. Its secure, rather extensive a talks with both a seating thing and each young they last for several hours lead send. Its a Prime Minister of china. And the rhetoric that he was greeted with by seating thing was quite friendly and that was also to be expected. But if you look at the really, the interest between those 2 countries theyre really diverging politically. Its very obvious with um, china leaning towards the russia but also leaving as close that ties towards north korea and even the run. So they are some friction then in terms of traits. China wants to keep germany as an invest and also as a market into a trading pot. Now, however, at the same time seating ping right now, its doubling down on manufacturing, on, on, on excessive industrial policy. And, and subsidies that basically threaten germans economy. So this also some, a friction, so i would say really, those structural issues are really very hard to overcome. And that is really the main topic of the meeting. Okay, richard, what is going to be top of filters list . Yeah, well, i think picking up on some of the points, the 5, the, and just made that, i mean, he mentioned showing this relationship with russia. This is certainly a major concern for the germans. And in that they see kind of sorry, much just kind of enabling russs war against ukraine, which of course is, is dragging on and on. And last time schultz went to china, i was with him on that trip. And he extracted the statement from a wedding from she, jim penguins, shes or something of a, a positive and saying that you can make threats with nuclear weapons. So this was interpreters is very much a kind of criticism of Vladimir Putin whos used Nuclear Threats in the ukraine will quite a bit recently. Those threats very much back. So i think the germans would be looking for some wording from she, jim ping on that. Again, but also the salts, as message to cj and ping is going to be, you know, youre helping russia, you may not be providing them with the drugs the, the wrong is giving them all the missiles that north korea is giving the russians. But youre giving a lot of economic support, diplomatic support, and what a cool kind of basic lease or enabling do you will use technologies to kind of technologies that could potentially be, be used in some way. And theres conflict and saying that this really homes, germanys into europes core interest, that is a major war in europe. And china is playing what they see as a, as a destructive policy. And that he also wants talk about it. Rodney is really upset and he wants to talk about trade, the issues, the 5 you just mentioned that we just had the time this Economic Growth is bouncing back well, the west seas. This is being built on excessive manufacturing of cheap electric vehicles, wind turbines, all sorts of technologies. The very important in the, in the development of the economy is the Green Economy in future years. And these are major threats also to germanys economy. European union is doing investigations into these things to look at whether it needs to stop imposing restrictions while off shots will be hoping to find some way to avoid that. Probably. And do you think we will get clear statements from the chinese this time on this trip as far as those hot topics go . So yeah, so maybe 1st time you do crating, i mean, i think it will be not youth to expect anything that goes beyond usually a rhetoric because just one week ago, 2nd off, real for the rest and 40 minutes. That was here. He was also treated by seating thing with a very frenzy rhetoric and the probably paving the way for a very soon visit by uploading and putting hit to china that has not been confirmed yet, but that is what is expected and. And if you also look at what is talked and background talks, for example, when i talk to diploma c a, im that also its not very helpful that um, right, china will actually use its influence over russia to help pressure the country to end the war. I dont think that is going to happen for the trait, uh frictions. Yes, i expect that it would be small concessions, for example, small opening ups, but not the structural problem. I think this will not be resolved. Okay. And as far as germany trying to de risk from china with the same time that were hearing for the chinese leadership that they want to grow this relationship. How, how does that work . Yeah. What, well, i felt as people are saying that, you know, they are trying to do the work of diversifying them these kind of economic context. So theyve had lots of meetings with leaders from South East Asian countries. Recently themselves has been looking for alternative sources of the kind of rule materials that the jump businesses get from china. But if you look at the delegation, this traveling results of this trip, youve got leaders of big companies, chemical companies, a lot of the really massive sort of core of the gem and economy. And a lot of these pulses that increasing their investments in china last year, in fact, was of record year for investment by German Companies in china. So. So the notice will clear that this strategy is really being pursued with full clarity by everyone. Interesting, richard volk, thank you very much for the analysis, says fabi and credit, but thank you for typing in front page. It of russia has been intensifying a tax on Energy Infrastructure across you claim. Since late march miss all strikes have left some major power plants and brewing the Energy Minister has told you friday is to be prepared for even more Power Outages in the coming weeks. The eastern hockey region is especially vulnerable, electricians and engineers risk their lives to prepare some of the wants destruction dw is young for the schultz has made some of them as they keep the lights on near the front lines, the small village and ukraines the net screeching the battlefield as only a stones throw away. This is the workplace of the axis left and his colleagues, the electricians. I called front of how a line i hit along the front line. The men have long ago stops being distracted by the sound of the tillery strikes during the repair work. Yeah, and my family is against this job, but they dont like me coming here to him, but we are very dedicated to a work. Its something we have to do with that, but as soon as to the front line village has been the target of Many Russians attacks. Most houses and its Primary School have been destroyed, never the less, more than 100 people still live here for them. The technicians curos at the state 0 last link to civilization without electricity were completely cut off. Theres no water has no gas to nothing works in the upcoming results as to the voltage further away from the metal field and the city of target electric repair work also feels more and more like a frontline job. Ever since russia intensified its effects from ukraines energy in festa, the substation has recently been fits and constants airlines to make any attempts to fix the equipment all over the 1st time, todays warning announcements ask a pause. Staff members to take shows immediately at a safe location. We get to a quick moments to speak to the engineer in charge of the from life. Its all very, very difficult. Every time we start to embed something doesnt alarm it, and we come back. And so we have to start all over again. Large power plants are particularly attractive targets for russian to tex the devastation at this thermal electric plant effective as the north, 6th russian crews. And decides to strike the engine room and force the entire facility to shut down. But you can just look around and you can see the extent of the damage, or were talking about kilometers of pipelines, kilometers of cables that are destroyed to come in. You said this is not going to take months you since, and this is going to take years to fix it, loading and so on. So low blood before its destruction, the plants supplied hundreds of thousands of people with electricity. The engineer tells us its last will be almost impossible to compensate. One small hope the west might be able to provide parts and equipment for the plants reconstruction. With the smoking boomers, were really doing all that is humanly possible. Here we must realize, but if we receive some form of support, especially Technical Support from other countries, we will be very grateful that meeting via russia continues its daily attacks on the power and the people of car cliff and many of the ukrainian cities almost certainly have many more dark nights heads up. Some of the stories making use now. A huge fire in copenhagen as towing through the cities. Old stock exchange. The flames destroyed the 17th century building, spying stark sides is the headquarters of the Danish Chamber of commerce and was being renovated. The cause of the fire has not yet known floods of pakistan have same 50 lives and inflicted injuries. Its original brains destroyed dozens of houses, lance lights pump several roads. Scientists say Climate Change is causing extreme whether impact us on the 2022 funds to budge. 2 thirds of the country scientists have confirmed the global heating has caused the latest mass bleaching. Its killing off carls its own track to be the most extensive on record awful ocean borders with rapes have experienced overly high temperatures and rescue. As in india, they should have found the bodies of 20 People Killed by land slides triggered by torrential brains on the weekend. Dozens of rescue workers and volunteers were involved in the search. A radiant president you bring him right. You see has one day as well, of a painful response if it retaliates against the brands attack it, the weekend is many ball cabinets made again on monday. As being no announcement of any concrete response, but military chief, catchy libby, was iran will face consequences. Media report suggest is maybe command as a seeking a response that will how to run without triggering a line of bull is a look at some of their options. A long shadow war that has come out into the open with a rounds attack on is real over the weekend is we have Government Faces pressure from within the country to strike back at her on forcefully to maintain deterrence. The highest risk and most drastic step is real could take would be the strike at around to Nuclear Program that could quickly lead to a major escalation of the conflict. Israel suspected to have attacked around uranium enrichment facilities before including in 2010 with a computer Virus Program thats set it runs Nuclear Program back years. But never officially acknowledge that. A step down in intensity would be air strikes on around oil facilities, military airports, or other military facilities. Attacking oil targets might significantly rattle the world economy. And attacks on irans military could force tear on to feel like it had to respond again. Tit for tat, the attacks that could lead to a regional more in both cases, there are military and technical issues is real stock of long range. Ballistic missiles is low, and fighter jets would face a long and complicated journey to their targets. Raising the risk, the israel even further as a 3rd option is no official public reaction. But to instead take the shot or war back into the shadows. Is real suspected to have a fascinated multiple iranian officials and Nuclear Researchers over the past decade. It also regularly strikes at a raining and proxies in syria and lebanon, pushing retaliation into this gray area without attacking a rainy and soil would likely allow israel to avoid the escalation its allies.
