china increasing by 83%. defending america wasn't his top priority, but he was honest about it, and we learned that areas that we're falling behind. now we've started turning behind. now we have a president whose priority is keeping american families secure, and over the past few years we began rebuilding our military, thanks to president trump, the guy everybody criticizes. we're restoring our military might with new planes, ships, new weapons be. what we're doing, as an example, fort sill is in my state of oklahoma. right now we're outranged and outgunned by russia and china. fort sill is leading the army's modernization efforts on the long-range precision fire to restore our combat advantage. that's what's happening all over the country too. so we're pulling out of this thing. restoring our might is important, but it's not the only thing that matters. we've got to make sure that the planes and the ships and the weapons are in the right places at the right time. and that's what the ndaa does. that's what we

is a good start but let's be honest, the china playbook, the communist china playbook, the checkbook diplomacy, you countries in europe like italy, like greece who need china's money like the city of london which loves to wondelonger china money. your weaker politicians of the capitals around europe as well as in brussels. that is the struggle in the huawei issue is a microcosm of all of that and you and i both know, you covered this issue beautifully that if huawei is the prevailing 5g in the world, china is going to be stealing intellectual property and personal information and everything in between. by the way the phase four bill could very much contain a whole package to boost 5g here in america throughout can source of allies around the world who do not want to be under the boot of china. maria: we certainly appreciate you joining me. we will be watching the development. >> it was a pleasure. >> don't go anywhere more wall street after this. ♪ when you think of a bank, you think of people in a place. but when you have the chase mobile app, your bank can be virtually any place.

the china things and. is going to way is probably all situation in that there are elements of his that will spray some more classic which i think you know is much more pragmatic the more interesting the wombles that we. get the manacles that actually says. that all this plan is doing well in singles actually the right things the on all channels and so there is an element of i will see those and certainly what i think they think what the administration with thinking. what. and the excerpts from bolton's book also contain a number of other accusations against trump include allegations the u.s. president asked foreign leaders including china's president for help to get reelected in november mike hanna reports from washington. the democrat controlled house of representatives impeach president trump for his dealings with ukraine ruling that he'd withheld aid to leverage information about his political opponent joe biden john bolton refused an invitation to testify before the house but now alleges that this acti

with china's. the label as the communists and states china subject of some modest compare where their weight they're not trying to run the world they're not even trying to run asia pacific i think they want to keep america from dominating the asia pacific so they have what they believe is their rightful place in asia pacific because alonso was asian our history and their size so their objectives are really modest compared with their capacity the world for new wealth in china and i often say this is this is the product of so far made entrepreneur skill but it's also the product of the exploitation of people at the bottom what are known in china as migrants but they're not really migrants so. if you really. go to talk to these my woodworkers you will find quite surprisingly. over the past 5 to 7 years they have experienced. a greater increase there and as a social groups china not a car society. but china is a class society. these are the homes of migrant workers people who build and service the new

free speech is hardly the only a front china poses a threat. a recent major report from an interagency task force found the china's deliver it economic regression and targeting of our industrial - with significant vulnerability. others are awakening the same reality. the controlled newspaper threat, and plunge into the mighty sea of coronavirus. if we did not play more nicely with beijing, one month later chinese officials threaten to boycott australia because our australian friends wanted to investigate the origins of the pandemic. earlier this year the director of the fbi explain china's, conspiracies make the ccp the greatest long-term threat to intellectual property and by extension our economic vitality. once again our allies and partners are being victimized by the very same tactic. one outside report found the united states is losing $400 billion-$600 billion per year in intellectual property theft as a matter of provable losses. that figure does not account for second-order losses such as jobs and infrastructure. let's put that in persp

we don't do the same kind of thing at all in china. we've got some radio broadcasts going in mandarin, but they're pretty tame compared to what the chinese do to us. the deception about the chinese virus is linked to these channels of influence like the china daily buying whole sections in our newspaperses. in deception you got to send a false message but also get feedback. so -- and get your supporters active. china's still got a lot of supporters in the congress, in our federal government. it's not -- the. [inaudible] lou: we've got, we've got influencers throughout wall street and most of them led by the ceo in the corner offices of the -- ceos in the corner offices of the biggest firms in this country holding their fingers on the levers of power and extending -- and, by the way, it's awl okay for them because they have a huge market in china that is now open to them thanks to president trump, robert lighthizerer and the historic trade deal the president achieved. now they're the ones drooling over china, their message carrying, the

of china a lot of pressure. this fellow's child china slightly smaller that just to make the transfer detainees from cambs took place and so that king gave an answer to that and. some type of legal cover where we heard in the report that some detainees that they disappear after the trials that we do we know what happens to the israeli hot safe where they when they. witness we know that it's highly possible that they are taken to high security detention thames or . inside. but the. official documents we don't have. about the names of the people who went through the trials so really hard to say for sure the chinese government claimed earlier this year that everyone who had received this so-called reeducate you should have gone through the good they would graduate. if you graduated or joined the leading happy lives no what do we know was that true from our research this is absolutely not true as you can see from the report many of them were to tend to place on high security detention centers in fact from satellite

amongst countries like china preeminently china they are able to do it themselves they don't have to be on the of the agony of the us dollar which is being used for political purposes but i guess money is used all over the world for political rather than economic. and the other countries are getting tired of china and russia see america now it is as a hostile act up in europe as are not nearly as friendly as it used to be and for all these reasons. to shift that if china starts to sell it but let me go back to you with something my sources told me when i was speaking to them this morning they said while china wants to do this they're not going to be able to do this for some time because they don't have the infrastructure and i think what they mean by infrastructure is the bond market that's capable of moving let's say a trillion dollars which the united states can do china can i do right now are they right. well i think they're right i think china is doing a pretty good job and i say good not necessarily because it's good for the united states but certainly it's it's good for china i

in china was not. active in international politics or less active they would say china was. when china becoming slightly more active it became a chinese you know assertion more certain so we just do whatever we think it's necessary at this moral. consensus except the united states we should have. really international community acting in a unified the way the. enemy cob in 98 and china it's best to help us here in britain a game that the foreign minister here dominic grab boris johnson's words minister attacking h.s.b.c. for backing the hong kong government the only thing that perhaps can take the george floyd protests of the news here is the rioting in hong kong what do you make of britain trying to offer passports to chinese citizens in hong kong. no this is a very silly decision i don't think that ask or well be very attractive to many. in the 1st place it's essentially a travel document not a work permit i remember when when 2 united states or 1st train. with jimmy carter and us president the us president and. immigration and those are being asked how many millions of peo

as a rival china does not want war and all must be done to prevent any skirmishes in the south china sea from escalating into a regional war with the neighbors of these of china would be forced to choose between either side now it is true that tensions in the area have been escalating just last week the u.s. sent in 3 aircraft carriers into the region all at once which is quite rare for them to send that many ships at one time but the u.s. says that they've been dissed by movements in the south china sea which is disputed territory by china china's coast guards have been robbing malaysian boats have been circular. securing some islands claimed by the philippines had been establishing its own administration of regions in the spratly in paracel islands which are disputed so according to us their concerns and their movements are warranted they say that china has been using the quote $1000.00 pandemic as a cover international distraction if you like in order to mount their own aggressive hostile actions and increase their own presence in the south china sea all right thanks so much katri

my first question is regarding china. a few days ago you met with chinese state counselor who is considered one of the architects of china's foreign policy. a news agency put a positive spin on the meeting. they wrote both sides fully elaborated on their stances agreeing that this was a concerted dialogue. and you agreed to maintain contact and communication. when i read tests like this, i might be thinking something is going on. so my question to you is, could it be that the trend and china secretly are preparing new initiatives to reduce tensions while publicly you are maintaining tough stands? one in new york has asked a question on whether we could expect the u.s. to take new initiatives, vis-À-vis china? >> so, anders, it was a long overdue meeting. i was a long meeting. we met for some six hours or so. each side state that what i think for each was pretty familiar positions. for us, for me i articulated that just what i articulated here this morning, america is engaging in a response to chinese calmness party and a

what are the reactions there in china from that morning. yeah the chinese diplomats have as always been quite vocal in what they said they've mass to china india to discipline its military but here inside the country the children is quite low it's the conflict is almost absent from the news here in china and to me that looks like china is really trying not to fan those nationalist sentiment that is easy to stir up here in the country in order to have more options china's diplomats are also constantly. reiterating that they are in dialogue with india and they are trying to solve this diplomatically so at the moment they are definitely not playing the nationalist card as they have been in for other conflicts nation what does this mean for the future of this very long standing order to speed. but a part of the search whose lives have been meant that this lot it is down to the 2 sites going to top down south they have been on to this building measures because that was not be used i don't know what which is what made these did these deaths all o

communist china. >>> well, some residents in beijing are forced to stay home as a new china virus outbreak has grown. all schools have gone back to online classes, dozens of flights have been canceled. and we're talking about beijing. china's version of the cdc reporting more than 30 new cases today. if that's what we're reporting, your guess is as good as any as to what the real number is. that's triple the cases first reported on the infection four days ago. the inthat -- the infection that started at the city's largest wet market. yes, another wet market and another outbreak. the china virus has now killed almost 440,000 people around the world and infected more than 8 million people including 117,000 deaths in this country, 2.1 million cases in the united states. more than 40% of the deaths in the united states have come from people who lived in nursing homes or other long-term care facilities. >>> well, up next here, jerry nadler. yes, he's still at it. he's using the house judiciary committee on

blame to china? >> senator feinstein, i did not. i believe this legal action is worth taking on behalf of the people of mississippi. we cannot ignore what china did. and i brought suit under our consumer protection laws. it is important, again, we are feeling that china engaged in unfair and deceptive acts and methods and practices and china covered up the seriousness of covid-19. >> thank you. i understand. >> -- efforts to move forward. >> thank you. i have a another question. before suing china, attorney general, did you talk with anyone about the republican strategy to shift blame to china? has anyone ever expressed to you in any way, shape or form, they think your lawsuit is a good way to shift the blame to china? >> no, senator feinstein, not at all. >> and you know you're under oath? >> yes. >> okay. i just would like mr. chairman to know more about that republican communication firm that released the memo. >> i could say i've never read it along with everybody else. i figured this out all on

really can do without trade with china than china can do without trade with the u.s. so it's one thing for the united states to put sanctions on a country and some of its beds for example i think that's what happened with russia for example but when they knock you off with that's a much more difficult blow right they explain what happens when you get knocked off us with what happens to a country what can it not do. but it essentially means a new cancer you are cut off from the entire global monetary network and media have no access to liquidity you have no access to the dollars or you can't send international payment supplements and or any pay for anything that are currently settled in u.s. dollars and most of the global international trade currently is denominated in u.s. dollars that includes oil that includes agricultural goods that includes basic supply should necessity materials energy all of the above all of that is currently denominated u.s. dollars that would be a very severe blow i one of the things that you mention with venezuela even though the u.s. previou

the last 6 weeks now has been a quarter to quarter china when it to hit china when a tree well it's not just the economic times so indians what i'm starting to talk this after became a popular i'm still on chinese ask and this is the focus of a lot of celebrity talk as matt often got a copy of the china cover the loss of life has definitely snapped up more serious militancy a sentiment as well that has been acquired for actually you should want talk tests have broken out from french troops in different parts of the country but of course that is an effort also it seems that ought never to deescalate the situation and he's going to have to leave to seek to do today how exactly this proceeds ok we'll know more about that as that proceeds the mission for now thanks so much for that from going. to china now where beijing has counseled more than half of its scheduled commercial flights as the capital struggles to contain a new outbreak of the coronavirus schools are closed for a 2nd day running in a travel ban has been imposed stopping those from leaving high risk areas the new outbreak h

on china. november, i think relations are lately to get worse before they get better. and by hope is, at some point both sides will put a halt. because it is he neither side's interest to allow this downward spiral to continue with no bottom in sight. haidi: what is the post-pandemic trade landscape, to you, wendy? not just u.s.-china or bilateral, i'm thinking multilateral trade, things like the tpp, initiatives china might be pushing as well. have things changed as we have spoken about this location in supply chains, concerns about china has -- how china has managed the crisis? wendy: i think trade is in real trouble. wto has already predicted for 2020 we will see a decrease in trade between 13% and 32%. that is a huge drop. and that the same time, there are enormous pressures in the united states to reshore american jobs and reduce our alliance on china. i would hope that would mean we withwork more closely our allies and other partners to open markets to them and develop supply chains with

china within china who jenna's government would have just come out with. i mean very normal come from as well ok they're better and here's the case now you're assessment is also that this new outbreak could have a much lower impact on commerce but if this new outbreak develops into a serious 2nd wave is it really possible to avoid another costly lock down and. well i mean this whole call the 19 crisis since the end of the economic modeling it's very hard to forecast. out and i mean you know actually expected some sort of we. have been so far. now it's the economy. not. working. there's going to be a lot of course this goes into the. economic policy. that's very different so this. capital as bad as high profile. totally relevant ok in spite of the economic modeling being understandably difficult as you mentioned before this new outbreak how close was the chinese economy to getting back to pre-code level. story of the one hand you have many think. it's not. new well at the same time the service sector took a major. transportation intelligence overall that is

into china or specifically into hong kong and then traveling by car into china that can still be done at this point what's interesting is that the chinese government has not lifted restrictions on flights from hong kong to the rest of china and so if you fly from the united states for instance into hong kong and then you need to fly from there to another city in china obviously not all or within driving distance you can't do it right now so hong kong has not had its restrictions lifted at this point and so it's more advantageous for american airlines meaning airlines that are american to be able to fly directly from the u.s. to those various cities rather than go in 1st to hong kong and unless you're going like you said somewhere somewhere close not all cities are close to that border however a lot of big cities here in the united states do have those flights whether directly or indirectly from d.c. from los angeles from a few other cities that go san francisco even to hong kong so it'll be really interesting to see how this all plays out and whether or not it even affects that becaus

in terms of china i would invest much more in a private conversation with china. when i was in government we often used the phrase strategic dialogue and in my experience, no dialogue was called strategic, you had dozens and dozens of people in the room, every agency was representatives you couldn't have a serious conversation, we need serious high-level conversations whether it is the secretary of state, national security adviser but at that level sustained basis, what it is, we would have to decide what our priorities were, where we would push china domestically regionally and globally and where we were going to back off. serious conversation about where we are going in this relationship but secondly we wouldn't do it in the current context. the most important thing we could do to increase the odds, the conversation might bear through it would be to shore up our relationship with traditional allies in the region and around the world but you can't be beating up on south koreans and japanese overburden sharing and expect them to work with you on sign up. same thin

there is one bright spot in the economy, and that is china and what is around china. is how long i have can you run an unsynchronized global economy? we have not tested it to the extent we are going to test it now. anz chief economic advisor. after being grounded for more than a year, we might see the boeing 37 -- 737 max back in the air. we will have the story next. ♪ anna-- >> the boeing 737 max may be one step closer to the air. test flights may begin as soon as monday. a fairly academic exercise given the grounding of aircraft worldwide? >> in a way it is good for boeing. it gives more clarity on how soon it can start deliveries and productions on the 737, given that this plane has been grounded for more than a year right now. yes, it comes at very uncertain times with the coronavirus and all these planes being grounded right now. it also does give a bit of certainty for boeing going forward with this max. it is definitely good news for boeing. >> just the fact u.s. regulators are willing to sort of -- certify boeing in the future does not mean world regulators

that i think china has a little. once to fall off a little plane running was exactly what we will or should they who are the ones with the lever on think is also very pragmatic in wanting to know why the wall meaning that they think this is war western media and ones over. being the checkpoints or what. is the truth what is probably our situation in that there are elements of whose administration was in iraq over 21 years much more pragmatic the more interesting the wombles that we. could be mounted. actually. that all this plan is doing in singles actually the right things that it's all charles and so there is a little boy i will see that certainly what i think they think what the administration with thinking was what. senior military officials from india and china are expected to hold talks after 20 and then soldiers were killed in a skirmish on the border it comes a day after top diplomats from the ship country spoke over the phone and afraid to deescalate the situation tensions paint on monday on the call on vall

china is now a scared kid on the u.s. attempt of blocking the legislation of the security law for hong kong by imposing sanctions will never succeed in response to the wrong behaviors of the u.s. side china will take necessary countermeasures in order to defend its own national interest while many of the specifics of the new law are still on known provisions a clue that it will supersede existing hong kong legislation and that china's top parliamentary committee will hold interpretation powers china's insisting that the move will not undermine hong kong's high level of autonomy while increasing national security a priority most nations share. all those countries which have pointed the finger is a china have their own national security legislation in place we could think of no valid reason why china should be inhibited from acting national security legislation to protect every corner of this territory and all of its nationals. this coming on the eve of the 23rd anniversary of hong kong to return to china from british rule

as a threat to challenge china's sovereignty over hong kong and to china challenge the one country 2 system principal in hong kong let's bring adam me here in adam you've heard the justification for the law that for the security office what do you think . it was certainly i think. i think i think certainly there's an argument that every country has such a law however i think in this case it's slightly different you know. the professor refers to. how u.k. was not different but we have to remember that u.k. was a clone your power and the p.r.c. does not claim to be a clone your power instead claims to claims to be the right for sovereign of of home cause it's a very different position that the p.r.c. now occupies and what we think about one country 2 systems i think of the laws to take it also. i think over the last decade or so we have seeing it encroach from our beijing on that system and the changing definition i think it was always in big us what one country 2 systems meant and increasingly beijing is pushing the goalposts and the latest national security law 'd is an example of th

china increased theirs by 83%. if we reduce hours by 25% during the same time, and don't forget these countries willfully misdeed on many things including the actual size of the defense budget. erussia is three times larger than most people think it is. they look at it and think we don't have accurate information and we know the threats that are out there. because of these investments, china and russia have grown not justca the size of their milita, but that capability as well. last october, china. the hypersonic weapon i remember so well because it was live on tv. we thought it. i saw it on television. state-of-the-art both offense and defense and they had it up there some people said maybe they were faking it, but i believe they did. it was in the parade and showed something we don't even have. their investments are not restricted by their borders. i seem to develop an action across the world. one example, china recently built at first overseas military base in djibouti. and throughout africa. there were a lot of

we should not have any created lucian's with china here. that's a sentiment shared by many including an influential group of traders it's not just a campaign asking movie stars to stop advertising chinese products it's also $70000000.00 members to boycott $3000.00 chinese products starting with those which it says can be replaced with indian made items spending money on chinese products is a do would be good to hit the country because china will use the money i don't. report pakistan for it getting the respect of reducing our country or china over the money goods forces against forces. we asked the head of the trade association of he'll stop using his apple i phone and given many a mate or assembled in china there's a good idea but let me know not. all of. india imports $70000000000.00 with of products from china southern bazaar is one of the biggest markets in india selling everything from household items to any tronics toys clothes and cosmetics and like other markets elsewhere would sell things and both and at low cost many of the produc

and china's trade relation? do you think the hong kong story becomes more of a prominent issue between the two sides? cliff: the hong kong story is the catalyst. it catalyzed a lot of anti-china sentiment in the u.s., but also in other countries. it's becoming like a larger ball. i think one of the things that will be surprising to some observers in asia, is let's say trump loses the election, i think initially the markets will think all of this will go away. i think what will be surprising's how much of this sticks, or how much of it persists. even for example under a democratic administration. moreou know, we've got jousting, possibly even more conflict ahead of us over the next two to three years. it's a very different world than what i have grown up with most of my life. we are looking at cooperation, globalization. that story has really shifted quite a bit. haslinda: cliff tan, thank you so much for your insight. coming up, curves in oil production. toc's attention now turns compliance as it looks to make s
