states the 1st time that's happened to the united states since the 870 s. when apes across britain is becoming head of the united states and there is a areas of technology and its political influence has been growing so it's not surprising that this is creating problems for people in the united states especially given the overall reigning sense of importance the united states gives syria it sells so it's not surprising it has been bubbling up for a long long time on this sort of ceding of animus or hostility towards china has but what has happened is that when this pandemic all of this is 1st so this this in an extraordinary hangry any temperate way and you see the media the political establishment they're all for you know shouting suddenly at china but they have no real plan they have they sort of militarized their approaches had sat talking wildly about cutting economic lakes but they're not really coming up with anything that remotely constitutes a plaid possibly because a plan is not to be found. exactly you know david we have all this in many of our vi

in the united states there is talk about reparation payments china will have to make to the united states. many countries, including the us, will reconsider how reliable china is in the global supply chain. and again, it is almost worse now that china will not fess up to the damage they have called to the world economy. i have many say what victor has been saying and it is false, they did not allow journalists to report what was going on, they did not allow doctors to report the severity of this illness. it is doubly concerning to me that china will not come clean and admit what they did. all right, clear disagreement there from both of you. let's go to our next question, from sweden. good afternoon, everybody. would china accept an independent visit to wuhan from the who to conduct a full assessment of the origin of the virus and if necessary, abide by their recommendations on health and safety in order to minimise the risk of a future pandemic? victor, this is something we've heard, china did not and has not provided the original, original samples of the virus do the who, the world heal

the power of the united states deters aggression. tonight, i again warn the north vietnamese that if they continue to escalate the fighting when the united states is withdrawing its forces, i shall meet my responsibility as commander in chief of our armed forces to take the action i consider necessary to defend the security of our american men. the action i have announced tonight puts the leaders of north vietnam on notice that we will be patient in working for peace. we will be conciliatory at the conference table. but we will not be humiliated. we will not be defeated. we will not allow american men, by the thousands, to be killed by an enemy from privileged sanctuaries. the time came long ago to end this war through peaceful negotiations. we stand ready for those negotiations. we've made major efforts, many of which must remain secret. i say tonight all the offers and approaches made previously remain on the conference table whenever hanoi is ready to negotiate seriously. but if the enemy response to our most conciliatory offers f

deaths have been concentrated in a place like the united states in many parts of the country so far has been facilities called nursing homes where the elderly are are out. with the elderly who live in congregate settings and once the virus enters those facilities they're spread very rapidly in a population and. we are very susceptible to dying in my state christian science think now 70 so doing 50 and 60 percent. of the deaths are among people who contract the disease while in nursing homes yes that means ease does affect the elderly more than younger people right now in the elderly and a very myself so i'm very worried i have the luxury of staying at home a lot of other people don't even if we account for that and if we strictly compare a large metropolitan areas like moscow to large metropolitan areas like new york london and we take into account all access death the season again the the difference is huge the death rate from cobbett 19 would be presumed to be at the around 3 percent and i think in new york it would be around 13 in london it would be around $23.00 so is there stil

guided during this pandemic nor has anyone actually asked the united states the guy it seems the this myth about american exceptionalism is his kind of lost its way because reality and facts on the ground believe that when you think. yeah there are means to be seen whether if we go back to the new normal or the old normal will what will remain but certainly it's been shown to be a hollow shell and many of us thought that all along aside from its obvious military strength the idea that if the us doesn't meet the rest of the world everyone will run around bumping into each other has been shown to be absolutely false when in fact if anything if we've learned anything from these past few months it's united states and its in its hundreds or thousands of petty bureaucrats who've been running around bumping into each other no one seems to know what to do issuing orders getting a reissuing more orders so in it it really does expose a hollow center of what's passed as american exceptionalism over the years you know it george is as every country has made efforts to flatten the curve as they say

states were raising this issues but after a few years again the united states went back to its addiction to using so the capabilities with regards to such extremist groups and use them across the region so the iranians believe that the united states ended its. unique let's say the usage of such extremism. and any and if the united states ended its threats for a sovereign and independent countries in the region many of the problems with it exist . where it here in doha what is it's about the saudi arabian leadership and clearly we're talking about the crown prince here my have been some man that they refuse up until now maybe even they're not doing it they seem to refuse to accept that the oil price has been crushed by the coronavirus you know demand has fallen off a cliff no one is driving no one is flying and yet they still wanted to flood the market they were warned by donald trump there was a phone call early march and still they went ahead and did it. you know as you know peter the game started added actually when it comes to the oil price but i would say that the issue is about poli

the united states but that they confiscated is the same it's the same that europe and the united states did with international reserves of leave you know more than 200000000000 euros in international reserves that money disappeared it has not been used for the libyan people it has not been used for the libyan development nobody knows where it is so they're trying to do the same against even a swell or so we sued the bank of england we even had an agreement with the united nations in order for this money not to be given to venezuela these gold directly but to the united nations so that we could purchase all what we need to confront the pandemic but the bank of england is doing what the foreign office wants it's doing what the state department of the united states want and they are keeping that gold illegally completely illegally but there has been some good news as you would understand it as regards the united nations trying to intervene here yes of course i must say the secretary general good terrorists and all the united nations are trying to help known here in venezuela they have trie

the united states of america. you see, in yet another short-sighted missed opportunity to address the coronavirus, this administration refused to participate. america was missing in action when leaders around the world came together with a determination to find and distribute a vaccine against coronavirus. the president's supporters in congress said nothing. boasting instead on judicial appointmentings and other things on their mind. given this president's penchant for blaming others but not himself for this virus, maybe this should come as no surprise, but it does because of the devastating consequences that could result. what does this mean for america if the united states sits on the sidelines while other countries set out to discover this lifesaving vaccine? well, we still continue to have some of the best researchers in the world at the national institutes of health, centers for disease control and prevention, many private universities and other researchers around this country. many n.i.h. funded researchers

the united states will take necessary steps to sanction p.r.c. and hong kong officials directly or indirectly involved. in e-voting hong kong's autonomy and if you take a look, smothering, absolutely smothering hong kong's freedom. our actions will be strong. our actions will be meaningful. more than two decades ago on a rainy night in 1997, british soldiers lowered the union flag and chinese soldiers raised the chinese flag in hong kong. the people of hong kong felt simultaneously proud of their chinese heritage and their unique hong kong identity. the people of hong kong hoped that in the years and decades to come, china would increasingly come to resemble its most radiant and dynamic city. the rest of the world was electrified by a sense of optimism that hong kong was a glimpse into china's future, not that hong kong would grow into a reflection of china's past. in every decision, i will continue to proudly defend and protect the workers, families, and citizens of the united states of america. thank you very much. thank you. >> [reporters shou

states on notice that it's willing and capable to defend itself and then suggested that the united states should put aside its quote cold war mentality and take time instead to test and quarantine its sailors from further spread of covert 19 those are china's words now this is a further escalation of the south china seas controversy so let me help you visualize this ok let's do this let's go over to the map i want to show you 1st of all let's start by explaining where there's a shisha island is because most people look at this and they're starting to wonder we're talking about it's right over here this is part of a pair of cell islands by the way he's islands are tiny so it's not like we could even show them on the map of we wanted to this ones off the coast of vietnam little further south these are the spratly islands so these are the parasol islands into this bradley island this whole area is. filled with these islands and here and most of them are contested the entire area is called the south china sea that's the point of contention china says the whole area belongs to them because the

united states should have been at that table. we should bee all in, any credible effort to find this vaccine as quickly as possible. i've introduce aal resolution calling on the administration to reverse the decision and to join in this effort. i want to commend bill and melinda gates who participated in that conference and pledged millions of dollars of their own funds on behalf of the united states. thank you to the gates family forin carrying. now mr. president, you should join them. then president, the republican leader came to the floor and talked about the problems and challenges we face in the fact there is another bill is going to be offered publicly this week by speaker nancy pelosi the next in a secession of legislation that we've considered over the last several w weeks. we have seen dramatic investments and unemployment insurance for the record number of unemployed people in this country. we've seen dramatic investments in the small businesses of america to give them a fighting chance to reopen and to prosper in the f

john ross, the cherokee leader, was a national political figure in the united states. he was pretty well-known. he was somebody who could marshal allies in the country and both politicians, members of congress, but also civic groups. there were legislators who were very, very opposed to what this act was talking about, which was a removal of american indians. so we knew that most americans today, if they know the term "trail of tears" they understand it as a moment of national shame for the united states. there are very few people that say that was our finest hour, that was just great, let's do it again. so we know people understand that it was something that the country regrets, but what we were very interested in doing is trying to explain how there was a real national debate about this. the people at the time, including many people in congress, predicted this would not go well and the country would regret it. we wanted to show that it was a national conversation that happened. so in this section we show a range of points of view. we actually start with president jef

most dangerous plan to attack the united states. those are the citigroup's theme isis and al qaeda so it's important to trade the roots of those groups. it is funded largely out of the gulf in the speech four years ago to open up this conversation it is too late to be running a military campaign against the ones that are already marching out of the foreign capitals but if you cut off the source of funding and address the strain of islam that forms the building blocks of the movement you are much better off and much more likely to beat them. that's why i think the number one issue right now needs to be the continued backdoor support for this version of islam that ends up becoming a foundation of groups and instead even under the obama administration you've got to get to the roots if you have any long-term hope of combating the rise and fall of the organizations. >> when you are campaigning particularly why do we spend so much time and money on foreign policy, and this isn't my question, this is from the audience members, why is this

felt in the united states. you know, we have seen now for about two and a half, three weeks or so an unrelenting campaign by beijing against our secretary of state. i mean, they've called him, quote-unquote, insane, they have used words even worse than that. and so we shouldn't be surprised that this is what they've said about him. but, you know, clearly beijing as has shown a viciousness in its tone toward the united states, and we've got to take that onboard because regardless of what americans want to think about china, we have to hear what chinese leaders, in fact, say about us. lou: well, that's absolutely true. and we also have to pay attention to what they are doing. they are challenging the united states, our fleet in the south h china sea, they are challenging us in the air as well. this is a nation that is becoming increasingly provocative over the duration of this pandemic and utterly irresponsible in its propaganda assault on the united states globally. >> yeah. china has deliberately released the c

the international court of justice found against the united states, and said the united states had in fact violate our obligations under the treaty and issued an order to united states to had the execution of mr. medellin and other aliens on death row. president bush issued an order to the governor of texas, i trust he knew the address to put on the letter. he issued an order to governor wreck perry, asking hipping -- ordering him to stop the execution so that the out could come into compliance with the vienna convention and the international court of justice's decision. texas refused to obey it, and actually was sued in the supreme court and ultimately the u.s. supreme court refused to stop the execution. mr. medellin was executed shortly thereafter. in that decision the supreme court said that even though the united states had signed the vienna convention that required these kinds of warnings, that congress still had yet to do something, congress had to act to put it into effect. until congress did that, the courts were not going to get into the business of enforcing the treaty. eve

all of these traces initially the united states and because of that the united states solar itself has been rivalry with the soviet union even on tickets and build confidence when the soviet union had those confidence building measures to militarily turn vine and the basis for ending the cold that was that. indispensable foundation that foundation is being destroyed and their full weight come moving back into a situation where international tensions already and we've already talked about the possibility of when you cope well with china in the 1st segment of all progress this is very dangerous and is most alarming thing to me of all is all of this is happening and western public seems to be completely oblivious to it so well and the western legacy media writing on discussing will do it is not smart and because i mean i know they are exactly quite right these treaties were celebrates it i know that they scratched and it's as if nobody cares this is easy credit be dangerous it is incredibly dangerous they think it is more he needs to be dangerous in my opinion than the climate change issu

we certainly want to have a good relation with united states. you know, i've been posted twice in washington, dc. i always believe that china and united states will gain from co—operation and lose from confrontation. and we have every reason to have a good relation with the united states, but it has to be based on mutual trust, coordination, not confrontation. but you need two to tango. and since the outbreak, i think president xi and president trump keep very close contact. the have two telephone conversations, they compare notes, and just like president xi had two telephone conversation with prime ministerjohnson. you know, we want to build an international response to this virus. i just want to let americans know that china is not the enemy of the united states. it's the virus! the virus is the enemy of the united states. they need to find the right target. it's a very important message you're sending. maybe china could consider some gestures that would improve relations with not just the united states, but many other countries, including a

i'm rebecca raters won't come to the program a wave of outrage has swept across the united states following the death of an on black and in police custody and minneapolis where 46 year old george floyd was killed while being detained by police violence flared for a 4th straight night of thorazine say local police and national guard soldiers have been overwhelmed by demonstrators and protesters have taken to the streets of other cities laving a trail of destruction in their wake. do you believe it is anger over the persistence of police killings reaches boiling point it spilled onto the streets of new york where demonstrators scuffled with offices into the night. was in the southern states of georgia protesters in atlanta faced off with police outside the head offices of media companies c n n the clashes prompted this plea from the mayor. this is chaos a protest has a purpose you are disgracing our city you are disgracing the life of george lloyd in every other person who has been killed in this country we are better than this. but it's the way that george floyd and many other african-americ

they operate in the same paradigm of the global capitalism unlike soviet union and united states of 40 or 50 years ago which had maybe wrong but completely different. perceptions or way of life how to live how to build society and that's why i believe that this confrontation my turn even more dangerous i mean that you're in china and united states because to certain extent ideological battle maint the premiss confrontation eliminate more structure and that's forced parts to a lot more rates on a rules old behavior also the good now and i'm so sorry to remember my. my status in the soviet union and when we were forced to learn marxism leninism but some of those pieces are still. relevant so the millennial space about imperialism as a high stage or ethical is when he described the reasons why 1st world war erupted i think it's very it's very big a risk that confrontation between the united states and china will lead us to something play that free world war one atmosphere this is not about ideology that was a dog breed. i mean this. mentioned a couple of words and let me. bring to atte

the united states of united states of america. the united kingdom. they are western countries with a lot of influence on values. the western civilization i really think is most of europe. with large parts of the middle east. in terms of defending it again both men intensely patriotic. back then churchill was a big supporter. all of the values that were in england. and donald trump is a big supporter of how america has traditionally been. i think both men want to ensure that what has always kind of happened in the country stays that way and they are not progressive in that sense. it's kind of a throwback to earlier eras. both men i think really believe in the west. and they believe in the values in the belief system into the model that are contained within mister adams given your accent how long had you been familiar with winston churchill. my father is a massive winston churchill fan. instructed me to not only read but reread as many times as i possibly could. the speech writing and speech giving. when i was about 13 or 14 years old in the eighth gra

just how far will it go the united states in this high stakes game of chicken that is being played out in international waters between 3 countries who sooner or later seem destined. for some kind of showdown. this is the news with rick sanchez where we drill down on stories like this that many in the corporate media ignore because we do believe it's time to do news again. here no other questions we think will be asking the morrow is the u.s. heading toward a showdown with iran and men as well over all fuel shipments could another historic milestone for space travel be reached this week and why is germany bailing out or essentially buying one of europe's biggest airlines. but let's go ahead and get started in men as well where the lines of cars backed in front of gas stations can sometimes stretch for a mile and often times they last for more than a day imagine imagine waiting in line for an entire day just to be able to fill up your car with gas because there's no way to refine the oil that is sitting in your own backyard the venezuela story is a story of economic hardship combined wit

the united states wanted sitting bull back in the united states on a reservation. eventually sitting bull instruct the cattle returned to the united states. sitting bull was killed by lakota tribal police. when he was killed, strike the kettle was with him. sitting bull was surrounded by his friends trying to protect him. strike the cattle was wounded in this incident. he went on to paint this muslin. it's unique because of its size. it's 22 feet long. the other thing is it does not represent one single event, which is usually what these paintings do. the museum brought out a life-size photograph of this muslin out of the reservation to work with elders to try to understand what going on in this painting. what they say they think is going on is that a series of preparations leading up to a ceremony or an event is probably taking place. and they point out on the pair of muslins are pipes and the stems are close together, signifying a ceremony is about to take place. they point out that there are two pairs of wants. these are used in the ceremony, which very loosely

this,ia, as a result of has sent out a call to the united states for assistance. enemy effort succeeds, cambodia will become a vast enemy staging area, and a springboard for attacks on south vietnam along 600 miles of frontier. enemy troopse could return from combat without fear over tell you should. -- without fear of retaliation. jeopardizing the lives of not only our own men, but the people of south vietnam as well. confronted with the situation, we have three options. first, we can do nothing. the ultimate result of that course of action is clear. unless we indulge in wishful thinking, the lives of americans remaining in vietnam after our next withdrawal of 150,000 would be gravely threatened. let us go to the map again. here is south vietnam. here is north vietnam. already --am are north vietnam already occupies this part of laos. if north vietnam also occupied this whole band in cambodia, or the entire country, south vietnam is completely outflanked and the forces of this area would be in an untenable military position. our second choice is to provide massiv

what about the other services in the united states, particularly the navy? i have never heard of any who werein the navy african-american. >> because there weren't any. >> that is quick. is, general part john blackjack pershing had a lot of experiences with african-americans during the spanish civil war. did that have anything to do with how he thought of them? he knew what their value was. how did that change for him in world war i? >> regarding african-americans in the navy, served exclusively in menial capacities. they didn't have the opportunity to serve as officers. pershing is complicated because on the one hand, he commanded black soldiers in the regular american warpanish most recently in mexico. his nickname was inward jack so his relationship with black exed, as was kind of v was his relationship with other commending white officers. he was attentive to at the end of the day, placating to the racist attitudes and customs of the military and not upsetting the status quo. while he knew firsthand the black soldiers could be effective combatants and ef

of the united states. that all the options are on the table when it comes to venezuela so they really saw a window to attack venezuela they thought that we would have a health collapse because of the corona virus which we don't we have the best figures in all of the continent and they thought that president mother would on our government will not would not be able to deal with both the pandemic and the interference and the attempts of invasion so they tried to do what they know how to do in latin america to force with maximum pressure with violent operations trying to kidnap the president of venezuela you know that the united states has made some false and fake accusations against our president and other members of the government trying to say that they drug dealers traffickers drug traffickers which is absolutely absurd so but there's a reward for press in. death or at least if they have them they have him alive so on all this most and i was interested in this but it was infiltrated by the venezuelan and

united states crossed another benchmark, 80,000 mark. united states now has 81,468 confirmed deaths from coronavirus. and the united states now has 1,357,872 confirmed cases of coronavirus. of course we have had many more cases than that for people who were never tested. donald trump is tested for coronavirus every day because he's the president of the united states. also because he's the president of the united states, donald trump is tested for humanity every day, and he is tested for decency every day. and he always, always tests negative for both of those conditions. as he did yesterday on mother's day, which presents the most elemental test of decency for men in relation to their mothers if they're still with us, or the mothers of their children. donald trump's public presidential mother's day observance was simply a tweet that said happy mother's day. the most impersonal possible notation of the day by a president of the united states. he spent what according to twitter must have been the entire day tweeting with 126 tweets. a twee

that is the law of the united states of america, backing up the constitution of the united states of america founded on the wisdom of the founders as you heard one after the other conveying the same message. but what was the president's response? the president's response said the resolution is insulting. is it insulting to fight for our constitution to be followed? know, mister president, it is the responsibility of every member here to fight for the constitution to be followed in the most important issue we ever consider on the floor of the senate is the issue of whether or not we are going to war. it is not insulting, it is essential, essential to remind this president that the wisdom of the constitution stands today as it has for more than 200 years. the president also cited authorities he has under the 2002 authorization for the use of military force. that shows what the authorization said. it said this. the president is authorized to use the armed forces of the united states to be necessary as he determines necessary and appropriate to defend the national security of the united

he was on the train with the president of the united states. and he confessed that if he could be born again, anywhere that he would choose to be in the united states of america. and of course a quote of winston churchill about the inevitable backhanded compliment that was coming where he said, although i did for some of your questions, chief among them being your refusal to drink during meals. the credit lines up with his other famous quote that i always use for my speech . to audiences all over the country. why said that american always does the right thing after exhausting every other option. peter: you have a similarity to winston churchill to give to the u.s. is that correct . nick: that's true. and that is something that is always bonded to me with churchill. we both love american. churchill was a huge americana fan. he loved everything about the united states of america really. over things that mattered. and even the darkest days, he would constantly be assuring people around him, don't worry. america will end up getting involved in ever

but in cities across the united states. people are watching around the united states wondering what is going on. people around the world are watching us live right now. they're saying to themselves, did this really happen in the united states of america? i can assure our viewers, yes it is indeed happening in the united states of america. so sad, indeed. paul vercammen, thank very much. >>> let's go to min ap pli, the minneapolis and the epicenter. george floyd videotape appears to show somebody struggling inside. you cannot see george floyd directly in this video. let's discuss. on the scene in minneapolis, doing an excellent job for us, omar. what do we know about the events that led up to floyd's death? there's new information, i understand, coming out. >> reporter: wolf, part of that new video you showed adds context to what has been simultaneous ongoing investigations into the officers involved here. talk about just the importance of video to begin with, that video, or the cell phone video we saw emerge early this week

states after this incident and they say please help us united states so the united states sent them several batteries of patriot missiles and 2 jet fighter squadrons to defend these particular oil fields so guess what happened within the past week the united states says to saudi arabia sorry charlie we're going to take those patriot missiles and the fighter squadrons back you're on your own because the saudis were still producing and shipping out too much oil causing the price of u.s. crude to tank and all the businesses here were complaining to the white house the white house picks up the phone they threaten saudi arabia essentially telling them look you either stop producing or you going to lose the protection that we're giving you and then. the white house did it wasn't just a threat president trump pulled the protection so now guess what saudi arabia does guess what they've just done they just announce that they're going to reduce their output of oil again by another 1000000 barrels a day right so essentially as i lay out this scenario for you you have to ask yourself who is the

you know i think united i think iran will continue its pressure and if the united states were to make an attempt to stop these ships at mid city that will in a in effect be a declaration of war that is recognize an international law and but i think that they will they will continue to be iran will continue to do what it wants to do so and some references are made to the time that the brits stopped. an iranian oil tanker and had it seized but this is different this that was against they thought going to syria which was sanctioned by the u.n. you don't have any of that here and i think that the united states again would be involved in piracy if it under took action on the high seas against those are rainy and ships and certainly would be unprecedented if any of that happened george galloway mike malloy appreciate your time thank you. closure. elsewhere in the news the corona virus pandemic continues to unfold tracking the global outbreak cases worldwide now topping 4700000 with 315000 reported deaths taking a closer look at the countries with the most confirmed cases the u.s. still lead

>> it's spread all over the united states. the first cases occurred, surprisingly enough, and the east coast, rather than on the west coast. among navy personnel at newport rhode island, and then the second group occurred a few days later and both navy and civilian personnel in san diego. that time, the 1st of june, it has spread in localized outbreak and the boy scout jamboree in pennsylvania, to louisiana and almost all of the states in the united states. >> i did not realize that was asian flu that hit that, it was asian flu? >> that's right. >> from what i've been able to learn, not many people have died as a result of asian influenza in the rest of the world, do you think the same will hold true in the united states? >> >> we have the belief now based upon the experience of asian influenza and the other countries and south america at the present time where it is an epidemic proportions, and as a result of the outbreaks in this country so far that it is a mild infection and with a very low mortality rate, and we believe th

president made once a good reiterating as we expect that by june infections in the united states could be as high as 2 100008 day deaths as high as 3000 a day that the u.s. president continues to press for reopening of the u.s. economy in fact he's meeting with the iowa governor as we speak and we're expecting potentially some more comments from the president to be played back very shortly but he also pressed in the comments earlier that he believes that schools should also reopen but reiterated one of the big challenges faced in the united states is the continuing asymptomatic spread of covert 19 can we how can i thank you very much indeed. still ahead this half hour the 1st schools reopening will happen the chinese city where the pandemic is thought to have begun will and israel's defense minister claims the building of several 1000 more settlements homes in the only white west bank. for. what was a few days rain in germany and poland it's rather stopped now though there is still cloud in poland i think it will be eastern europe the seas the raves the next couple of days at least sig

[inaudible] what you think the united states who do you think the united states response? is it evident? right now united states is trying to save new york. it's worry about what's going on internally. that's understandable. but it's not as if we've done nothing. in fact, the administration has made available $700 million for for covid-19 response in developing countries. i'm quite certain that out at our embassies and places like that we are trying to help other countries with their response. we also as i mentioned we have the aids emergency network which helps countries that are in the developing world respond to the crisis. so in time i think the united states will take a bigger leadership role. but for now the foreign assistance should be welcomed and the fact that it's not going to help right now called together a big conference to talk about response to the virus it's just not to be helpful. it will be helpful in a few months to do exactly that and also to try to help the world plan better since the next time around. >> if you're joining us, i'm tom gilligan and this

thought is that this pandemic has exposed incredible water abilities in the united states and the united kingdom and that's going to be painful it's going to be a very painful like $10.00 to $15.00. 54 jets and more than 1300 military personnel are headed to air force base in alaska where is that to say come on i'll show you what's the reason for any type of enhanced u.s. military presence in this area russia. what is it suddenly about the south china sea that makes it so that it 11000000000 barrels of oil. take a look at this map who really owns what kind of says no it belongs to us india says no we claim that that belongs to us both of these countries have nuclear weapons capabilities there is reason for concern so that's why we're going to drill down on the story for you today right here on the news with rick sanchez where you know as we always like to say we do believe by golly it's time to do news again. greetings and sally. we start things off today with 2 of the most iconic american means of self-expression in self-defense i'm talking of course about protests and guns since the 20

states though because we have had a president in the united states critical of europe including a threatening to put up tariffs on europe for a number of goods so it i think that that's where europe is really stuck and i think we'll see perhaps more clarity from european states after the american election once we know who will be running d.c. do you think that the international community does it have much leverage right now when it comes to china and what about this fear that hong kong is just a rehearsal for beijing taking over taiwan. i think there's going to be a lot more needed in terms of international consensus to put pressure on china in a way that they actually feels the best example is the most recent example taiwan getting a chance to even participate in one meeting at the world health organization a lot of countries signed on to that and taiwan was unable to participate in the meeting so we've had a handful of countries come out and issue statements on this latest development hong kong and where i think we're a long way off from china really responding to the international communit

a lot of blame shifting both from the united states, from europe. tona has been trying rewrite the narrative and pretrade themselves not as the source of the virus but as the savior from it. not so much on the united states but in europe in particular and africa and other parts of asia. we have seen them donating a lot of masks. selling a lot of ventilators and other equipment to try to portray themselves as a helpful, responsible, global superpower. in a lot of cases, that has backfired because those masks have turned out to be substandard. china is trying to manage this and come out of this as best as it possibly can. december,g back to january, early february, what were the biggest missteps by the chinese government? guest: the biggest missteps was both -- was the attempt to cover up this virus. we know the first case was discovered in the middle of november. it was covered up throughout december and into january. it was not until january the first that they closed the market that was the source of the virus. it was not until the 20th of january
