The police to whom the choose would be very dangerous it was pitched battles carried on into the night with protesters defying repeated Police Warnings for people to stay off the streets even dieters ignored the call. This clash spread from one side of Hong Kong Island to the other and then back again. Police a day earlier banned all marches but people still took to the streets not to celebrate 70 years of chinese communism but to mourn it but dont come up to them when they have. This is an illegal notch designer of the year oh oh oh no there were more than 100. 00 arrests some of the most intense violence was on the other side of the harbor in cow loot a much watched video on social media appears to show a policeman shooting a young protester in the chest with a pistol the Hong Kong Police force say it was in selfdefense but this was the 1st time someone had been wounded from a Police Bullet since the protests began almost 4 months ago the anger of recent weeks had been building up to this day the most important date in chinas political calendar this year many train stations and shopping malls were closed in the security clampdown just a few months ago hong kong was regarded as one of asias most law abiding cities a model of Good Governance now all of that has been turned on its head with the police left to solve what is effectively a political problem these prochoice in a protest is also see themselves as defenders of hong kong.

Aircraft thunder through the skies of asia Armored Vehicles rumble through china square a display of chinas military strength as president xi jinping calls for economic and political confidence and sends a message to hong kong. We have to maintain that peaceful united one country 2 system. To keep hong kong and macau as a long term prosperity and stability 70 years ago when gentleman square communist Party Chairman mao tse dong announced the founding of the peoples republic of china. In the following 27 years socalled great leap forward plan to boost farming and Industrial Production led to famine and the deaths of an estimated 30000000 people his cultural revolution clamped down dissent a year after maos death in 1986 new leader dense helping declared china would open up internally and to the outside world. The china of today bears little resemblance to the china of chairman mao the new middle class is getting wealthier and the countrys transformed itself into an economic global power but one of the central messages of the celebrations today seems to be a cautionary one yes we should acknowledge what china has achieved so far but there could be tough times ahead. For president xi centralizing and strengthening control in beijing some of the president s political rivals have been swept up in his crackdown on corruption as well as the ongoing protests in hong kong and allegations linked to human rights the trade war with the us is forcing chinas economy to slow and this is not a adversity of High Expectations that is going to be very glorious in the near future its an anniversary in which we look back on what china has been able to attain and we talk about a new era of sacrifices and struggle in 198911 squares all bloodshed when prodemocracy demonstrators stood up against tanks in 29 t. China is determined to show that its military is stronger than ever but the success of president xi jinping his leadership may depend on how he handles chinas newfound prospectivity matheson. Beijing. Is a policy analyst for defense and Foreign Policy studies at the Cato Institute in washington and he says that military parades are a message to the u. S. In particular. If you look at the long history of china from when the p. R. C. Was 1st established 70 years ago to now that china is no longer this sort of defense backwater or underdeveloped country in that regard and that theyve invested considerable resources in the parade the military assets came 1st and the party has invested considerable resources in making sure that they have the military capabilities to reflect their rise as a general power and this this military rise is also i think a big focus of concern among the United States and also other regional countries Chinas Nuclear force structure is not very much like the United States theyre not trying to match us in terms of number of warheads but theyre trying to keep an arsenal thats most significantly smaller but has a guarantee of surviving 1st strikes and retaliating and as the United States has become more concerned about chinas rise i think there is a tendency to see Nuclear Developments as particularly threatening because china is fielding new systems and there is a tendency to sort of overhype what they mean or misunderstand what they mean iraqs government says at least one person has been killed during violent protests and at least 200. 00 people have been injured in the demonstrations police in iraq fired rubber bullets and tear gas on government protesters in the capital baghdad there been demonstrations in other regions including measure of another city many young protesters accuse the government of not creating enough jobs imran khan is joining us from baghdad with an update the number of those injured in iran continues to rise. Thats absolutely right what were hearing is at least 200 casualties taking place according to the official government sources were also hearing as you said one person is dead. Is about hoffa comatose way from where im standing all the way through the last hour weve been hearing what sounds like fire it could well be rubber coated steel bullets it could well be life we havent managed to confirm whether the Iraqi Security forces are using fire but theres a volley of shots being fired at we can hit now the events of the day began around 12 oclock local there was a very small protests that took place it was quickly dispersed by the iraqi police but then there was a coal on social media to get people out into tucker a square that coal was heated thousands of people turned up in taqueria square it took the Security Forces somewhat by surprise they quickly sealed off the center of baghdad in the streets around the area and they tried to disperse the protests will the protesters tried to do was come across one of the bridges and go into the old green zone where a lot of the foreign embassies that green zone is now open but it hasnt been open for a very long time so they thought they could try and get in then they would beaten back and then whats happened is they have been dispersed into the streets around the. Square as well as being in the square itself the pictures of very powerful you can see a lot of people injured you can see. The Security Forces using water cannon tanks and driving in to the crowd its concerned a lot of people hate particularly amongst the government that this was able to escalate so quickly within the space of a few hours they were able to get thousands of people out onto the street now that is one of the most influential player x. In iraq hes a shia cleric hes also his party is also a member of the ruling class in iraq he actually tweeted saying that the government needed to mount and investigate. Into the events of Takara Square so theres been a lot of reaction coming through from political figures as to what this happened to the protesters are very clear they say the government hasnt given them enough jobs as and created enough opportunities for sickly amongst the poor of iraq and this isnt just happening here in baghdad its happening in just as well where people are out on the streets and the fear now is that this could escalate into a nation Wide Movement so all eyes are going to be to see what happens later on into tonight what happens in the coming days when these protests get bigger ok iran cant thank you well the speaker of Irans Parliament has told that to ron is open to the idea of opening a dialogue with saudi arabia it follows Saudi Crown Prince mohammed bin sandman saying he would prefer a peaceful resolution with iran in settling Regional Security disputes as opposed to military conflict that all you must look at all the most of the iran is open to starting a dialogue with saudi arabia and other countries in the region and are ready in the saudi dialogue could solve many of the region security and political problems what we can say is that its not and instead of the for saudi arabia to rely or depend on america riyadh can submit its proposals to be discussed at the iranian saudi dialogue table without preconditions from our side we also welcome what has been quoted that Prince Mohammed bin still man wants dialogue perhaps it is good to know saudi arabia is thinking of the regions interests 1st we say to the who these in yemen that any cease fire will be very important we also confirm that it will be for the interest of saudi arabia.
