And while were getting a lot has lost faith feel ever return. A russian president Vladimir Putin has arrived in harbin as he continues is to day visit to china earlier put in met with chinas leader. Shes in pain and beijing. The 2 leaders have reaffirmed they are no limits. Partnership in the face of growing tensions with the west, she and prudent have signed an agreement on deepening ties. And so theyre working towards ending the warranty crane. Although they offered no details on their efforts. Would you be to the shoot . Yeah, im 10 but deep. Ill journalist probably and catch my eye is joining us from beijing. Hi fabia and thanks for being here with us. So russian and china seemed to be celebrating their partnership. But what does that actually mean in practical terms . Us . Yeah, i mean, it 1st means that they have on the rhetorical level upgraded the relationship. They have assigned almost it doesnt joint documents. That pledge deepening cooperation of that ranges from infrastructure projects, media cooperation, energy deals, etc. And they have a flourishing trade that has been booming since the stop and of the blind ukraine. And um, i would say that its also concerning that uh today uh, when putting in how being in the north of china, he will make one particular stop. And that is at the Harbor Institute of technology. That is a, one of the universities that has the closest ties to the military here in china. So at least for on the symbolic level, that is quite concerning from the perception of the west. Because it might indicate that russia maybe gets more access to the Defense Industry here or to technology. And that is actually the part points. Sorry that its a call pointed at china right now. Um is exporting a large part of what is called to a used products to russia. So things that are not weapons but are in directly used to for, to team to build up. Its military base where the war and ukraine did come up. But that was one put in think chief for a proposal to end the war there. So what is this chinese so called piece plan . Looked like it was the people piece pan has been um circulating for quite a while. No. And if you look at it, its a rather awake document, its not a concrete action plan, and you always have to consider that. Um, it comes uh when, when china, once negotiations into put a ticket solution, it does so on or basically youre rushing terms. I mean, they also all the efforts, right, know, going on this a plan peace conference in switzerland. But um, china has not endorsed. It has not yet confirmed whether they will send a delegation to switzerland or not. And the distance or the position of china to whats the one ukraine has not changed. It does not called us of what it calls it. The ukraine cries, its only criticizes to us. Its adding the fire to the, to it and criticizes the west for sending weapons to um, ukraine. While the other hand, it has not to criticize russia with one syllable yet and is always maintains that russia has legitimate security concern. So i think it will be hard for ukraine, for example, to accept china is indeed true negotiate. I think china describes russia as a close partner. Now at the same time is trying to maintain close relationships, particularly economic relationships with western countries. Um, so how is being handling this balancing act the way it becomes difficult, but i think it was successful so far because of the price of a badging had to pay was rather little. So um, when you know your penalty does come here, they also ask the agent to stop it support with a rush as Defense Industry, but i think the message was not taken so serious. But for example, in the u. S. Foreign minister, entity blinking was here and he issued a warning. I think after that you could see that the chinese export. Deresa indeed went down because the, the threat that the u. S. Pauses buy, possibly, for example, the sanctioning a chinese bank, it cetera is much bigger. So i think this really has a heading and effect, but right now a to china and russia are working on making the trade sanctions prove. And one way to do that is to, um, basically do the trait only in domestic currency. So already now it, at least according to poor team, he said that the trait is 90 percent done, either in rouble or redmond b. And i think that is also one way of, you know, making it syncs improved from the west journalist from you and customer and vision. Thank you. Authorities in brazil, south and say they are planning to build 10 cities to house, some of the people displaced by historic flooding. The state of rio run.
