An end to a trade dispute between china and the United States may be a long way off and it concerns beijing is not willing to bow to us tomorrow for political and industrial reforms talks appear to have stalled despite the declaration of a truce when the 2 president s met last month when hay takes a look at chinas economic rise and whats at stake for the worlds 2nd largest economy. The thousands of years people in china have been gathering around tables trying to outsmart each other in the game of my job its increasingly caught on around other parts of the world to a source of pride for experts in the game teach foreigners visiting the Chinese Capital beijing this game 3 people together you know during this game isnt as to winning but if a player does want to win they need to strategize something Chinas Communist Party has done very well to survive and succeed in the late 1970 s. The party changed its strategy of isolation to modernization by opening up to the outside world. By embracing capitalist ideals of business and trade china became the factory of the world with the 2nd largest economy behind its current trade war enemy the United States but economically china is slowing down recording its lowest quarterly growth in 27 years and the world is watching what happens next the great wall of china was built primarily to keep invaders out the greatest fear of todays rule is the communist party is of domestic political instability which could lead to their overthrow thats why they know they need to continue to reform and develop the economy to ensure most people have jobs and an opportunity to improve their lives the theory being that as long as its delivering those things it can run the country largely the way it wants continuing to restrict free speech and stamp out disinter long the way. If the economy becomes stronger the party has a last incentive to change it will only change we did feel its roots challenged in the opening and the reform process only happened because the economy was collapsing if the economy grows there will think the model is successful with more than one. And its been able to use that model to become an economic superpower while rejecting scrutiny of things like alleged human rights abuses most recently the government denounced 22 nations for signing a letter condemning china for the detention of we get muslims in shin jang province but it embraced a supporter of letter signed by 37. 00 countries including several muslim majority nations that have large economic deals with china. But many chinese believe theres a lack of understanding about this country and its people which leads to what they say is unfair treatment by others particularly the United States they reveal it itll look at another country the reveals the look and another perspective so they only hear what they want to hear chinas strategy is to be a modern powerful socialist country its proved its a serious player and in some cases is rewriting the rules of the game wayne hay al jazeera beijing.

Well those are the headlines on aljazeera do stay with us the listening post is coming up next thank you very much for watching. Talked to al jazeera. Problems and besides the instability is corruption we listen. Who are pushing the United States and President Trump into conflict we meet with global newsmakers and talk about the stories that matter is there a. Speaking out against trans racist tweets about writing a story that women of color. Probably Rice Krispies just. To. Round trip. Alarm Richard Burton youre at the listening post here are some of the media stories that were covering this week thats what i said in a tweet which i guess some people think is controversial donald trump and the touchy question of when does political rhetoric become straight up racism there are lessons to be learned and not just for journalists and news outlets hardliner the b. B. C. Iran and a case of Selective Distribution and serbian war criminals turned authors rewriting history from behind bar politics often comes down to a war of words and these days the coverage of the Trump White House is caught up over one word racist and whether or not it should be used to describe the american president after donald trump told 4 Congress Women of color to go back to the countries they came from even though 3 of them are american born some u. S. Media outlets are still stopping shy of using the r. Were the 4 democratic congresswoman in question 2 of whom are muslim do not mince their words when talking about trumps Border Control policies and what they call concentration camps they were as outraged in describing their visits to those camps as the Vice President mike pence was indifferent jury and hits the juxtapose imagery and rhetoric that the 2 visit. Produced the war of words that followed are all reflective of the place in which the u. S. Finds itself ahead of the 2020 elections a nation of opposing political narratives where trumps white nativist message is facing more and more pushback from a new progressive force on the political left our starting point this week is Donald Trumps twitter account. Where does one even begin when tweets like these come out of the white house had those 4 Progressive Democratic congresswoman actually taken President Trumps advice left washington and drawn back to the crime infested places from which they came Alexandria Ocasio Cortez would jump on a train to new york city she did to leave would catch a flight to detroit and Diana Presley would buy a ticket for cincinnati of the 4 only ill hand omar was born outside the country making her just as american as the 1st lady of the United States if not as white boards christian. It should come as a surprise to anybody. In the free world the president of the United States if every 5th to have called the new hero of the great 5th when he openly announced. What his new show diversity think it is incredibly rare but if we knew him over a 5th when he afraid that muslim for cheering the burning of the twin towers during 911 which was manifestly untrue i saw people getting together in fairly large numbers celebrating as the World Trade Center was coming down killing. People calling him i think this particular formulation which you go back to where you come from. And that of course is something that has been said over and over in American Culture to people i know when i was a kid as a black person walking down the street and my hometown every now and then the white kids would yell i want to go back where you came from. And his base theyre probably numerous people use expressions like that to people of color America Great i mean i saw it resonated. For progressives who have been nicknamed the squad have been a thorn in the president s side ever since their election to congress in 2018. The conflict escalated on june 30th when 3 of the Congress Women Ocasio Cortez and presley visited 2 Migrant Detention Centers in texas. With. Great from there. Although the cameras following them were not allowed in the women emerged with stories of overcrowding and squalid conditions they compared the facilities to concentration camps and then reported their findings to congress. Mr speaker we do have a crisis at our border it is one of morality clearly created by the Top Administration dead and sending a message that those seeking refuge are not welcome in america or american the trumpet ministration countered last week sending the Vice President on a similar visit it was an alternative photo op and it was no accident that mike pence appeared unmoved by what he saw. What they promised coming into office was that they were going to crack down that they were going to stem the tide of migrants coming across the border i would build a great wall and nobody builds walls better than they believe me and so every day since then has. An exercise in trying to show the base that theyre doing exactly what they said they were. So what we saw was Vice President pence standing outside of these pens where men were gathered wearing the clothes across the. Screen that they needed the basics. And we also saw nice present who didnt seem particularly moved by any of this in terms of the intentionality of the optics i think what we can say is that unfortunately there is a segment a trance things that actually like seeing people of color being detained or being policed being mistreated and unfortunately. Thats what i said in a tweet which i guess some people think is controversial a lot of people love it by the way after treating his go back where you came from message the president was accused of playing the race card i think that they are not espousing the views of our country before congresswoman he reacted the way he often does when challenged over his choice of words he double dare they make it stay that they should love our country covering the story created a dilemma for American News outlets in the same way that many of them are hesitant to call donald trump a liar when he constantly misleads americans there has been a reluctance to call the author of what are clearly racist statements a racist. There is a history in this country in debates about race. To. Tell people who call someone a racist that you shouldnt do that because being a racist is something that is psychological that is inside a person it is their personal attitude. And since you cant read their mind you can talk in terms of their behavior and you can talk in terms of the words that they use or whatever but you cant say that person is a racist that you dont know exactly what they. And sad believe it so that is why everybody was tiptoeing around being careful and using the language in that way because they didnt want somebody to come back and say well how do you know im a racist this president has made it pretty clear whats in his heart from the very beginning and even if not we can look at his actions in office we can look at what hes doing on the border those actions speak for themselves where the comments from the president are just the latest in a long list of racially and sendiri remarks there been a number of journalists from the very beginning to call out this illustration for exactly what it was maybe other legacy institutions or journalists are slower to come to these realizations but its not a secret its a part of it is how racism works within the media racism isnt just an issue that journalists cover its also part of the environment in which they work 86. 5 percent of all editors in the United States are white. 3 fourths of news organizations have no people of color amongst their top editors so that often means is a lack of sensitivity to the coverage of racism as well as a lack of training and if you dont have diversity in the newsroom then youre going to be in an echo chamber and not have really active coverage of a problem. Especially if youre fox news where the lack of diversity on the screen and the lack of sensitivity in the news output are both by design fox has not and would not call President Trump a racist the politician and americas most watched news channel feed off each other. And it is likely no coincidence that fox anchor tucker carlson. Was laying into somali born congresswoman omar calling her a racist who hates america just before trump was there yes done for omar and for her family she hates the selfie more than 4 days later the president sent out those tweets 3 days after that there was trump at a rally in north carolina. Serenaded by a crowd chanting center back a script effectively coauthored by fox news and the white house. Dont know if not have never being there for the United States of america but if it didnt. Fox news or truth 94 but finished the people that watch fox news right. He really doesnt care if people call embracive. He can manipulate the media like. Trump like most populist isnt interested if they dont and. Like like modi you know what the left of someone who can go to iraq. And the only way you can fight it. Kind of good very good but telling the truth today but. Were discussing other media stories that are on our radar with one of our producers enough tarik the british broadcaster b. B. C. Sends a news team into iran gets what it calls rare access puts out a series of reports on his u. K. Domestic and world news channels but not on its persian Language Service why not because the broadcaster reportedly agreed to those conditions set out by the iranian government thats according to internal emails obtained by journalist yes shot ighly for huff post in order to get their correspondent martin patients into iraq and the b. B. C. Had to agree that none of the material he gathered footage interviews stories would go out on any of b. B. C. Persian platforms now or in the future you know that includes even read tweeting all forwarding the coverage. In the reports and it suites the b. B. C. Acknowledges that scenes movements were controlled by official mind but iranian authorities did not restrict what was reported views how it would have had no idea the entire assignment was conditioned on the news reports not reaching an iranian audience and tehran has got a history of censoring b. B. C. Persian and targeting some of its journalists does it not exactly b. B. C. Persian is effectively banned in iran but it has a big viewership according to the broadcaster a week the audience of 12000000 and b. B. C. Persian stuff based outside iran ive paid a price for the journalism for years they face threats and intimidation by the government some of how the assets frozen most unable to return to iran for fear of arrest and their family members in the country have been harassed and sometimes interrogated so understandably some of them are not happy about. The broadcast made we have to run for the b. B. C. It says that all International Media are subject to restrictions and iran and theyre not wrong just as crews also grapple with certain rules the b. B. C. Also said we accepted some limitations on this occasion an order to provide our audiences would read insights from inside the country and this is signposted in our coverage as ever the b. B. C. Maintains full editorial control over what we broadcast just not it appears where it is tough ok thanks to our. Its been roughly 20 years now since the war finally came to an end in what was once known as yugoslavia the historical narrative of serbias role in that decade long conflict europes deadliest since world war 2 is hotly contested and it really shouldnt be the evidence as per the United Nations and multiple other investigative bodies tells a tale of disproportionate serbian aggression brutality and ethnic cleansing the alternative version of that history is now being told in book 4 by authors who have been convicted of war crimes that include genocide the convexed turned writers former serbian generals and politicians are just out for exoneration in the minds of many serbian nationalists they already have that they want to rewrite the historical record while feeding into nationalistic narratives favored by serbian elites including t. V. Channels which might explain the popularity of the books among those who hold political power in belgrade listening posts johannah whos now on historical revisionism in the former yugoslavia and the inmates who have gone from convicted war criminals to published authors. Biographies war memoirs novels even poetry. A total of 119. 00 books written from behind bars by 22. 00 alleged and convicted who are criminals. This literary output has been coming out of the Detention Center at the International Criminal tribunal for the former yugoslavia lies since 1993 the school of literature coming from the. Us down even to the eyes of the wind i did 161 person as a whole. About 140. 00 actually went in so you have an indian which is a dense and unique. Below you. I can say that every one in 6 prisoners of the i said to me why i turned out to be an older or sometimes many of those people are acting for purely political reasons for propaganda reasons there is a certain certain insistence on exonerating yourself. Some of it is obviously also creating a parallel narrative which is only a part of a systematic approach in which actual facts actual events that have taken place i know being questioned. And they dont care about facts and they dont care what you were i think about it which is tailor made for sure and its made in a way that would fit in the preexisting narrative from what you can spot via word of what and who the serbs are. Its about stories stories make nations and i dont care it is not going to be remembered as a murdering genocidal maniac but it is a great european hero who actually made the 1st serb state on the left bank over the knowledge that. There was a problem which is why you remembered by future generations of serbs not is a murderer of albanian children in kosovo but is a great warrior who stood up to nato. And the story. Provision is books written by convict at war criminals are commonly available hender serbian capital belgrade including a bookstore behind me which belongs to the ministry of defense these books dont just do well with the average sir the countrys politicians including those in government are big fans too and a cobra last year the publishing arm of serbias Defense Ministry took to belgrade sheerly book fair to promote its newest release mercyful angels embrace the multivolume wartime die. Written by former army general in the bush. Who is currently serving a 22 Year Prison Sentence for crimes against humanity details his experiences in the kosovo war another prominent spot at the fair was reserved for alleged war criminals. After 11 years in detention cheshire has returned to serbian politics and going by the name of his Publishing House greater serbia theres little question as to what his books are about. Beach and shush presence at the prestigious fair doesnt speak to the quality of their literary work rather it speaks to the popularity of the nationalist message the narrative that 18 years after the end of the war is still actively endorsed by those in power. Only. Those who were convicted in the Hague Tribunal a widely seen as heroes in that community mysteries and in serbia many of those who participated in making decisions during the war when you are now in power and they benefit from promoting these kinds of goals messages and narratives for instance only or have commissions books that are promoted by the ministry of defense off a blow by blow accounts of the nato bombing during the kosovo all however they are met the crimes committed by the serbs that these books are an attempt to completely ignore the albanian victims to keep war crimes silent and to present the nato bombing as a hostile attack by International Forces in which only innocent serbs were killed the only medicine is the skin i dont when it comes to some of the books that says he has published we know that for instance alexander which is the current president of serbia wrote a couple of forwards to some of the additions now if you have a legitimate representative of a country. You know write a forward or books. Analyst work and all that is a huge issue. What i think that tells you a lot about just how far. You know the current political structures will go in order to push this narrative on to the public the mission is more describe corners for the crisis loses serbian media play a significant rule in bolstering location this narratives in a country or something or so in the number last year for members named serb Army Commander right gone lady who is serving a life sentence for war crimes and genocide dialed into a morning Breakfast Show on serbias privately owned Entertainment Channel happy to be sending his love to the nation from prison. And on his himself. From the doomed from the hague and then. The conversation by saying you know. Most of the media suit themselves as organisers of state machine themselves as being part of the serbian cause and contributing to the syrian cause which is the only way you can explain having got online is shown into the morning talk show having just been found guilty of genocide. Or speak of normalization of. The srebrenica genocide which took place here in 1995 is by far the most popular topic for historical revisionists the execution of at least 8000. 00 muslim men and boys at the hands of the bosnian serb Security Forces the worst mass killing on european soil since the 2nd world war is a huge staying on bosnian serb history and numerous books have been written about it by those wanting to recast the facts of that massacre. Surveillance is by far the thorniest usual normal discourse. To various is also by far the best prosecuted crime all the crimes of the ninetys its proven beyond reasonable doubt that the culprits are the leaders of arm of the cause of the serbs and i dont wonder how come that additional facts which could be so well established are facing the storm what does it take actually. Its a question that those pushing back against these are vision its narratives whether about srebrenica or any other brutal episode in the yugoslav wars have been asking themselves for years. But as long as these rewrites of history are not only can dont actively indorsed by those in power attempts to tell the facts as they are are falling on deaf ears me long to do who are name im all right now we dont have a young generation politically mature. Enough to ask important questions or inquire about facts that are being hit. My generation which was trying to create a consciousness about these crimes and the people behind them while we have been defeated we want table to win back the narrative we couldnt make the media follow this up and the crimes of those responsible for the peace agreements these have been completely removed from the agenda in its place we have this populism on the rise and there seems no space for push to really push the post story yes the political model would be saying. As a survivor of so that means a survivor of one genocidal episode the 1st emotion that comes is under. Then. Disbelief. And then. Resort. To fight that. Were dealing with which means that. Dont have a problem explaining to do with electorate why theyre spending millions in genocide denial. People im actually managed to move on from there really feel to me. And thats the experience of being shot at being killed losing your relative was your father was your brother mother sister whatever but the people who did that to them. And the more diminish. The 9 the past genocide. Is never just about denying genocide in the past its about planning in whole or hoping for the next one. Otherwise why do. Why glorify genocidal maniacs and why the mortified mass murder. Unless youre prepared to repeat it. And finally back to dawn. Trumps america his latest attacks on those 4 Congress Women of color telling them to go back to where they came from on the race issue its like trump has replaced his dog whistle with a megaphone hes not even trying to be subtle anymore but for news outlets the struggle continues the internal one in which they cannot quite bring themselves to call this what it is racism from the american commander in chief and magine being a School Teacher and having to explain to a child whats coming out of their president s mouth these days thats the theme of this new animation from political cartoonist mark fiore a childrens play book explaining just what it means to be american in 2019 well see you next time youre at the listening gather round.

Irans foreign minister is accusing u. S. National security advisor john bolton of trying to drag britain into a quagmire after iran seizure of a u. K. Flag tunker mohammed jobs ariss bolton is quote turning his venom against a u. K. Britain said. As it wants to know attentions its written to the u. N. Security council expressing its concern at the detention of these 10 in peril and its crew iran insists the ship was violating maritime rules when its forces boarded it on friday the u. K. Says a tanker was in omans territorial waters well talk to Dawson Jabara in the rain in capital tehran in just a moment but 1st tonight in london for is so nadine whats the u. K. Government been saying. Well fully they are trying to walk quite a difficult path between appearing to be tough and not escalating tensions in the region in the last few hours the junior defense minister Tobias Elwood spoken on National Television saying that he calls he sees this seizure of the tanker as a hostile act saying that the number one priority must be. Assuring the safety of the vessel and its crew but also ensuring the safety of other vessels in the area and were just hearing the fact that the the company that owns that tanker stan a bulk a british operator have made a formal request for access to visit the 23 crew members of the sterner imperio their indian. Latvian russian and filipino nationals the iranian authorities have said on sunday that theyre safe in the port of blunder about what the Company Wants to see them so that the britons obviously on the defensive if you like because at home theyre being accused of being slack of not assuring the security of vessels in the area but theyre also saying that the one of the proteins must be to deescalate tensions so really theres theres quite a tough game for them to play right now we we expect to hear from foreign secretary jeremy hunt on monday about exactly how britain will respond that junior defense minister when asked about sanctions just said that britain is looking at a range of options yeah i was going to ask you about that there talk this talk of the escalating tensions about the same time talk of britain re imposing sanctions on iran what other options do they have right. Well its difficult to see over the weekend britain did actually summon the show as a deaf heir of iran here in london to complain about what they see as an illegal act and lets not forget the letter to the United Nations Security Council from britain makes it clear that britain believes iran has violated International Law because they say the tank it was in a money waters as you were just mentioning so theyve theyve done vats they have expressed in this phone call between jeremy hunt the foreign secretary and Mohammad Javad zarif is iranian counterpart theyve expressed their extreme annoyance and disappointment was the word that jeremy hunt used at whats happened theyve called it a hostile act but will they look at sanctions its not clear because all of this comes at a background of the Iran Nuclear Deal being under severe pressure something the junior defense minister admitted in that interview and theyre desperately trying as an International Effort to try to keep iran on truckin try to keep the talks channel open so there could be some kind of freezing of assets perhaps travel bans rather than imposing economic sanctions further on an economy which is already suffering i thank you for that madam babylon forests in london as counselor to tehran now and dosage of Barry Soetoro so whats the reaction in tehran to britain sending assets in the strait of homes. Well the rainy and sad believe that this act that was carried out on friday by the revolutionary guards was by their Due Diligence in the strait of hormuz that the revolutionary guards were carrying out what they are supposed to be doing in that area we have heard from the ringing for ministers of odds are a through ascent that prudence and foresight and who are such floyds referring to market various governments planning to announce on monday in terms of any every precaution for the arabians or heard from the Iranian Ambassador in the u. K. Who said earlier today that we warned actually montenegrins any further publications that iran is firm and ready for different scenarios and we also heard from a number of in peace in parliament on sunday morning where they hang the revolutionary guards for carrying out this ad on friday ready see the stossel b. M. P. Signed a declaration of support for the seizure of the center of cairo by the revolutionary guards we incident comes of course at a time when tension is a very very high and the rings are very upset about the seizure of one of their own tankards the grace one in this failure to baltar that was seized by the british navy on july 4th because the u. K. Government said it was heading to syria which is under any you sanctions the iranians said in fact that was not the destination for this size oil tanker which is carrying 2000000. 00 barrels of the reigning crude oil that is worth about 200000000. 00 and there was very severe reaction to that seizure by the 4 months of government to the Supreme Leader in here and some comments on that saying that that are the absolute piracy of that calling it will not go on and support and this action by the curtains are drawn by is the seen as a response but also as a message that the revolutionary guard is not a force to be reckoned with and they will add when needed and in this case they were off holding the internet. Maritime laws the strait of hormuz when he sees this vessel because they said that this was not on call that it was traveling in the wrong their own direction and it had turned out all its transponder so they didnt know this vessel was not able to be detected by other ships in the spare room is there any is ok where are the millions of barrels of oil that houses there thank you for that dorsetshire in tehran for a set speaks more about this not to simon mabon whos a senior lecturer in International Studies at Lancaster University hes via skype thank you so much for being with us these tensions with iran instead of having them at a worse time for the u. K. When in the mid seventies their ship contest or a pace or a some a what measures you expect friend to take what are they options right now. I would imagine right now into where were sure who the next Prime Minister of the United Kingdom is going to be will see it come soon did and some a conservative response but the u. K. Right now is undergoing a range of different pressures from from brics it to this this leadership election and the iran crisis is is really its come at the worst possible time for the new leader of the country its also got because not in the in the right there who is in iran right now and theres an effort to try and release has so so theres a real sort of cult plex issues now moving forward the u. K. Is cold essentially between working with the european powers to try and get this diplomatic solution to the Nuclear Crisis got off the ground well moving closer and closer to the United States and depending on who wins the election wins the leadership contest i should say we could well see the United Kingdom taking that route yeah and precisely the iranians are accusing the us of dragging the u. K. Into this crisis they say britain is just following american orders do you think thats the case right now what is their role in the crisis well thats it shows this long being levied at the United Kingdom dating back decades the idea that u. K. Is a waning power do we. The bidding of the United States is one that is routinely routinely thrown a london and to an extent i can understand why it is but i think recently what weve seen is that the british tensions with Iran Independent of the United States really really escalated following the seizure of the tankers that your pocket surely was talking about and not draws on longstanding tensions between the u. K. And iran that have independent of the United States dating back to the time of persia an oil in persia so theres a complex theres a complex states all of this historical complexity and a more contemporary complexity pendant of the United States and so where does this leave the 2050 nuclear deal that france germany and the u. K. Were trying to save france and germany have now expressed solidarity with the u. K. And have warned of regional escalation in in the tensions what does that mean for the nuclear deal is it that south. Well recently it was it was turned on the life support of a commentator suggested that the deals on life support i would say that its on life support in its most critical phase right now europeans were the ones trying desperately to save the deal and that seems to be what ron was looking for as well but it seems that this action following the United States withdrawal from the nuclear deal is that the wholesale rejection of the rules of the game all the actors involved since very rejecting the traditional rules of normal politics and normal pols exist diplomacy so it seems to me that were in a really difficult position the u. K. Wanted the deal it would cut the deal put right now it doesnt know what the rules of the game are no one seems to and thats a worrying precedent right now so how then do they deescalate the tensions before it gets worse simon. We need the next little mediate so many to mediate to that doesnt have a vested interest in one side of the other and there are a number of those across the world but they have to be respected by both sides and they need to encourage both sides to offer a gesture that will will be understood by the us a call that theyve signed that can be misconstrued that can be understood in different ways but rather is saying in good spirits taken in good spirits as a form of the escalation be at the release of these tankers be at the new sniffing of economic sanctions Something Like that needs to happen to build trust trust is essential once youve got that trust then you can start to idiot to the rules of the game and start talks but you need the trust and you need that external mediator very good taya thoughts on this thank you so much for joining us simon maven from Lancaster University joining us on the news hour lets turn to other world news now and they are running battles right now between protesters and police on the streets of hong kong violence broke out as Police Officers in full riot gear used tear gas and battens to pay a protest says hes alive because as you can see organizers say more than 400000 people took to the streets and again ironic that lisping small among their. The demonstrators are trying to push the government to officially withdraw a controversial extradition bail the. Irony is some protesters vandalized the office of chinas representatives in hong kong they threw eggs at the building and found
