Waste your F time 😊

Name the countries responsible for NS2. Or call yourselves puppet's not experts. this is farcical.

The telecommunications Revolution coinciding with the rise of globalisation is totally not a coincidence... you may be not old enough to remember the time when if you wanted to make transatlantic phone call you needed to book with the operator in advance - and it cost an arm and a leg. it was cheaper to send a missive by recording a message on a cassette tape and posting that, even if it needed to go to the USA from the UK. my mother and her sisters would do this all the time, living on 3 different continents. Then followed email this was also pivotal. Now we have portable video devices which can send back info about the conditions which products that we buy are made in - and that we now increasingly find are unacceptable... IMO globalisation was driven by Communications and of course we also needed the international Financial operations which were similarly driven by digital technology

When you use terms like Indo Pacific you used the master's term, it is Asia Pacific.

You are so far from South CHina Sea to cause troubles in the SCS.

Phils would have stayed neutral to China and US, if China did not take Phil territories through bullying. CHINA does not deserve to lead the world as it has no respect to international laws.

In the case of the Phils, China must withdraw first their incursions in Phil. territory before they talk bilateral concessions. China must come clean.

Very amusing thank you.

Ruined by gooey audio, unfortunately.

After finishing the whole video, my conclusion is that all the three are very informed and balanced, better than those think tanks invited in the US forum or speeches.🎉🎉🎉

Peace was enjoyed for ages by world ship mariners in this international water until China's unilateral grab ( invalidated by UN Arbitral Court) of almost the entirety of South China Sea + parts of Exclusive Economic Zones ( EEZs) of the Phils, Vietnam, S.Korea,Indonesia,Malaysia & Borneo which countries have sole jurisdiction & domain ( same for all countries) per UN UNCLOS to which ironically China is a signatory. China is persistently focussing on less militarily prepared Phils on their invalidated( 9? 10?) dash line claim, reason why Phil welcomes US,Japan, France, Australia et al countries' actual & expressed support) but China seems not as insistent to better-militarily armed Vietnam,S.Korea & Indonesia which countries firmly time & again warded off even burned Chinese fishing & naval boats' intrusions in their EEZs, also was not as insistent when Indonesia & Malaysia determinedly put up oil platforms in their EEZs disregarding China's protests.

Dr. Marion Mesmer discusses the tension around the potential conflict around the Baltic undersea infrastructure kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIXSnXmbZ7Kge68si=iScr9Ev3zdjfKjl-

Interesting discussion. The host appears to understand the situation better than the 2 guest Emmer from SOAS is of course the anti-China element here. While the host tried to inject some maturity to the discussion, he bearly made a difference. To really understand political situation it is important that listeners is aware of these premise, politics is about agenda, manipulation of information to achieve those agenda, everybody lies and people can be misinformed either intentionly or otherwise. There are movers and there are useful idiots There is also the urge for self preservation besides interest and there is a power level dynamics, capacity and determination. There are also local dynamics/politics. Since the movers in this situation are the US and China, it their intention, capacity and determination that matters. Others may align with one or the other or try to stay neutral depending on their agenda or forces of their local politics. The agenda of the US is to contain China, either to limit its influence, economy or military power. The Biden admin may feel it is still stronger than China and may want a war now, the trigger could be a useful idiot like Taiwan, Japan or the Philippines. Or the US may just want to limit China influence by embarrassing it or sacrificing a pawn for rgat purpose. China is a growing power that is still far from its potential. It will want to bide its time but will try to delay any confrontation. But it will eventually claim its prize. There are no rules or laws, just threat and opportunity. And the ability to do something about it. China and the US is a threat to each other. They will try to do something about it. The US wish to subjugate China, while China wish to break free. Taiwan, Japan and the Philippines are US tools of subjugation. At some point China will want to free itself by removing the threats in its neighborhood.

" ASEAN nations are aligned with China except the Philippines." PTP... CTTO.... kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4PRaX2AatFld8U

All my comments rebutting the comments of Chinese bots here are being deleted. So funny.

China is a communist authoritarian regime. It cannot be trusted.

How come the reasons for China's claims have not been properly presented here, but only a distorted western view? Need fair representation, don't you think?

Anyone flew LA to Shanghai knows it takes 14.5 hours. South China Sea is some 8000 miles from the US. Why is it a “regional” issue unless the US really thinks it still or ever did owns the world. The rest of the world think it is your imagination. Get real, wake up, your dream is forgotten. If you haven’t, fly to China to take a look and see who is more advanced and happier. When you have learned more, you will feel sorry that you were born in the US, like me.

ASEAN is laughing at Philippines.

It's center not centre.

If there's war invthe SCS, what are Filipinos going to live on?

These idiots are the reason why the world is mess right now.

Interestingly, in the first example of violation of the Post War Order, large powers using military might to violate the order, does not include example of the US. The only example is Russia. I am sure David is aware of Iraq 2003.

The professor is speculating too much and should listen to Anders Puck Nielsen. What individual countries have realized, each of them can not resist an aggressive Russia alone. They all came to the conclusion that banding together makes them safer. Assuming a specific behavior of Russia or interpretation how Kremlin plan their future in a changing world order is not really a valid strategy for them. Way too much 'long-shots' and repeating Kremlin's propaganda and taking them at face value. He does not understand the political and social development in Russia since Soviet Union collapse. Watch KZbinr Vlad Vexler for real insight.

would’ve been better to skip the paper reading and allow for more panel discussion. the papers could just be posted online/distributed to attendees and read in advance-i don’t see the value in listening to a mumbly professor slowly read an academic text off a peace of paper

The speaker was ok on some aspects but not on the crucial questions. For example, he argued that China has no alternative to the existingbpostv1945 order but anyone who cares to read China's three Global Initiatives can see that it does indeed have a well worked out alternative which is much better than the current western dominated system. That is why China is now supported in these initiatives by the majority of countries in the UN and why the US only has around 30 countries standing by its side.

第一：中国谴责了10月7日针对平民的袭击；第二：中国的清真寺数量巨大。以上两点很容易查证，所以这个演讲者采用明显错误的论据。真让人惊讶，这些事实很容易验证。

ccp say 1 thing， people should think the opposite

From Adolf Heusinger to Jens Stoltenberg, NATO has been led by depraved politicians. In its original form NATO was certainly useful and a smart arrangement. Now it has become a liability.

Im glad the US flag isnt in that picture. NATO just takes advantage of us.

How ignorant! UN to sanction China, as one of the P5, has the power to veto any proposal.

Re: "What-about-ism" - isn't that just a derogatory term for wanting consistency? (If it's good for the goose, it's good for the gander). To argue against it is, imo, arguing for 'exceptionalism', 'privilege' and discrimiation.

In 1954, the USSR applied to join NATO, which was rejected. And in 90's too. The truth is that the NATO was built against Russia. That all.

will you publish the event about Iran of friday 12th april?

Rennie talked about the story of Xi telling Merkel that China's history shows that when it was weak, it was bullied. How come the two guys here made it into a sinister story? That is common sense logic right? Any country that is weak and unable to stand up for itself gets bullied. There is nothing sinister about it. That is the way the world works. Look at Gaza, Armenia, Serbia, Hungary, Guyana, Cuba, Libya, Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Panama, Grenada , Yemen etc.

I visited Beijing in 1979 in an official government-led delegation in 1979. At dinner my Chinese host went to great lengths to explain why China will reclaim all land north of the Amur River and there was a very deep-seated antagonism against what was then the USSR because of that Russian aggression by the Czar. Culturally, this puts China on a revenge footing against Putin’s Russia.

How does the Israeli genocide in Gaza and the Western support for it fit into all this?

Mr. Voyger you are a little liar. And it’s clearly visible how you constantly swallow your drool while speaking. On that button was written "PEREGRUZKA", which means overload, not overcharge (and this button was designed by US side). This photo is easy to find on the Internet.

1. It's a lie, that Sweden and Finland has made a decision to join OTAN in 2022. It's an old nato dream to make the Baltic Sea - an inner nato sea. 2. You have to be either stupid or arrogant enough to think that by arming yourself and posing a threat, you will ensure peace and security.

Most of the westerner do not understand Chinese , Chinese don’t believe in human rights , Chinese don’t care about others except their own race and country , and it is ok for the chinese society to accept any Chinese that cheat to achieve their goals , so from top government to normal civilian , they cheat in politics, business , Chinese has natural talent to fabricate facts , they can write a book to support their illuminated logic

I think papa US already teach us all about might makes right. China has more to teach on that?

Brilliant talk

This is a typical Western perspective.

China is indeed against the so called world order under which the west makes the rules and order everybody around. China is against the so called "universal values" being used as a tool to sanction and destroy countries which the west find it hard to exploit. Or using the same "values" to divide people instead of uniting them within a target country. His eloquent speech is all part of this.

Russia is NOT the Soviet Union. Why do so many people still blame Russia for what the Bolshevik Jews did to them?

I don't remember any such debates or presentations on the US'' shock and awe campaign against the sovereign country of Iraq or on the UK's supply of depleted uranium weapons whose toxic residues continue to give children of Iraq brain cancer and other diseases (as the late John Pilger has documented) . Therefore WWIII seems inevitable when we see how unapologetic white people and ex-colonial entities - such as King Leopold's armies in Belgian Congo who cut off BOTH hands of children and young men for petty theft and other minor infractions without the slightest compunction and went on to literally liquidate that country's first black elected prime minister Patrice Lumumba. We know only that Russia now has a university named after him - no one else in the entire West could ever think of such an initiative. Democratic Sweden couldnt even investigate the death of its philosopher diplomat Dag Hammarskjold (also the first Secy. General of the UN) when his plane was shot down over Katanga during the civil war that ensued in the Congo. The East and most of the global South cannot possibly trust the old monarchies and ex-colonial governments of the West ever again.

This. gentleman's statement on descendants of Russian Soviets of a 100 years ago never having apologised for how they behaved in the Baltic countries during their Communist past sounds absurd to people of the Indian sub-continent who havent forgotten how their forebears were robbed, killed, forced into slave labour on their own farms for the profit of British corporations, how their rebels were executed by being stuffed into cannons and blown to bits to quell any further revolts (as several graphic art works of the period show). Nor can we forget how both the US and UK threatened India and the people of erstwhile East Pakistan during Bangladesh's War of Independence, the first by bringing its Seventh Fleet and USS Enterprize to nuke India's ports and cities and the second by threatening us with RAF bombers. Neither Nixon, nor any UN organization of the time or even one of the 38 countries India appealed to for aid to feed the 10 MILLION East Bengalis who fled to India as refugees in 1970-71 ever gave a dime in aid at that time. It never occurred to us to ask for apologies for these lapses of humanity from.these champions of democracy and rule of law in the West.
