russia is interested in how to save russia and euro economic relations. and the economic partnership it has with many countries in the european union. could -- the neal arms treaty? as i understand, russia has chinased the topic with the-- how have we not seen -- until the chinese part? talks with china -- step with chinese partners. on.crisis is going russia is going forward to. [indiscernible] i do not see that. russia would criticize china in not joining the treaty although russia would like to update new arms control and regime -- as far as i am concerts. our military experts also to be part of the foreman. so i guess this is the picture that we have now and russia , russiave -- well thinks that it would be better for everyone if we negotiates but ate arms control this stage there is nothing we can really do. action we canar do now basically. and the last thing about the standards in the arctic -- this is an adjusting question because china -- has grown and china would like to step up its presence and even if you look at the maps, you will see this is

then there is russia. as a fellow arctic councilmember, russia, the other arctic states have fruitfully cooperated in a number of areas. expansive conservation efforts, those are to be applauded. we want cooperation to continue. but we cannot have one side cooperate and the other side derogate its duties. we are concerned about russia's claim over the international waters of the northern sea route, including the newly announced plans to connect it with the china's maritime silk road. in the northern sea route, moscow already illegally demands other nations request permission to pass, requires russian maritime pilots to be aboard foreign ships, and threatens to use military force to sink any that fail to comply with their demands. these provocative actions are part of a pattern of aggressive russian behavior in the arctic. and russia is already leaving snow prints in the form of army boots. russia formally announced its intent to increase military presence in the region in 2014, when they reopened the cold

so pump aoe seems troubled by both china's and to russia's presence in the arctic speaking about russia first how legitimate is it for pump to warn russia considering its entire northern coastline borders the arctic ocean. well it seems like he's warning russia. in the framework of its proposed participation with china there's a un law it's called the convention actually that lists five nations that international law permits to bargain with each other over arctic resources like oil and gas and gold and diamonds and uranium which is extremely important in the world today due to nuclear weapons or nuclear power and the fact that no new raynier ms is able to be made so finding sources of it is a pretty big deal but the convention does not have china on the list of five nations and so russia is causing a potential problem in international law in pompei you are certainly aware of that china has no claim as pompei zero said and i think anybody can justify that russia is a popular. i'm going to use the word punching bag although is overstated diplomatically making russia an adversary and stand

oftentimes, when we talk let'sly about russia, start with russia, with russia's approach to its nuclear forces and the concept that they might be willing to escalate to de-escalate, we get pushback. there is no evidence of that. there is no evidence in official documentation. i won't talk about sources, but if you can talk about why your assessment is in fact a fact that they are testing in this manner and we are confident that this is in fact russia's approach to why it is organizing their entire arsenal this way and their strategy that they have lowered the threshold of when they might consider nuclear use in a purely conventional conflict. >> part of their doctrine goes back to the 90's. there is no first use policy asm russia and they see that an ability -- and you hear different ways. some contexts, you'll hear it escalate to de-escalate. it has been written about as de-escalation control, where they think that using a low yield nonstrategic nuclear weapon would bring other powers, it would be inviting conflict to the table, where they can control the escalation and talks that ensu

it make sense to get along with russia. nobody has sanctioned russia like i have. nobody has talked about the pipeline going to germany and various other places, like i have. i said it is very unfair, having to deal with the united states and n.a.t.o. there has never been anybody who has done that. if you want to look at something big, our energy business -- we are now the biggest in the world, bigger than russia, saudi arabia, bigger than anybody. it all happened since i became president because i made it so that you can do that. we are taking in a lot of money . our country is doing really well. we probably have never done this well before. and it is going to continue. we have tremendous signs. as far as china is concerned, believe it or not, it is very important, but it is a small part of the kind of numbers we are doing right now since my election. reporter: $325 billion in additional tariffs, are you -- tom: i have not made that decision yet. we have the right to do another $305 billion in additional tariffs. that is a tremendous amount of money coming into ou

secretary of state mike pump aoe could be sent for talks with russia's president love him or. putin according to the kremlin spokesperson who said the proposed talks in moscow could be held in the next few weeks of course lives knowledge jeana culture over for more and what is normal at this stage we do know well the meeting between the russian president and the u.s. secretary of state stayed home pale may happen as early as this month now and may washington's top diplomat will meet a with the russian foreign minister sergey lavrov in the resort city office sanchia and now the kremlin says a parallel a meeting where the president could take place there to now this will be a first visit to russia as the u.s. secretary of state and lavrov did however just to meet with him at the arctic summit in finland and that particular meeting showed that the two countries are still struggling to find common ground on a range of issues not only on vanessa well up but the use of the arctic as well. concerned about russia's claim over the international waters of the northern sea route includin

russia continues to mourn the death of the forty one who lost their lives after. aeroflot flight crash landed here in moscow on sunday the national carriers sylvie superjet got a difficulty shortly after taking off and was forced to return to show much of a way of port that plane hit the wrong way hard baddest a few times and burst into flames as it careered along with tom it was quickly consumed by the fire most of those who died were from northwestern city the flight was bound for. so she was very sure you. enjoy a nice picture shifters so it's too soon for me to even if you wish to. use it if you still. if you took those three needs it's you. i the rules to come by you can usually get. what you took something to give each of us. must. see. this implemented in the national forests to. see some of the survivors have returned to motor months to be with their families and have been recounting very harrowing details of the crash of the bravery of the crew in particular flight attendants might seem has been hailed a hero he died trying to open the rear exit door in o

like to say on russia there russia is not a monolith there are high level officials in russia that are not definitely not pleased with how some people are handling the us own situation in russia it is in the very interest of russia and china to restore democracy in venice well because the fact of the matter is that russia or china will never get its investment back under the regime it will have an open and frank discussion with the democratic forces in the future once democracy is the store for its good markets political advisor to get its way liz opposition leader born gordon francisco we've taken the time to talk with this to. talk again soon thank you. thank you for having me. israel today marked its annual holocaust. stay the nation came to a standstill as people paused to remember the six million jews murdered by the nazis during world war two. this comes amid the largest spike in anti-semitic violence in decades experts say part of the reason is that memories of the holocaust are fading now there's a new project with an innovative way to keep those memories alive assman is here t

on his 1st trip to russia the u.s. secretary of state might compel arrives for talks with his counterpart sergei lavrov finding the long lasting suspicions between the 2 countries. but as little brand a u.s. police raid on a former embassy in washington d.c. a violation of international law activists in the compound saying they are trying to prevent an illegal takeover a u.s. military school publishes a decades long history of washington's intervention in other countries by some as a guide. and a saudi arabian ship is counted by protests in european courts failing to pick up in arms to liberate the activists say could be used to kill civilians in yemen. you're watching aren't international bringing you your live news update from our studio here and moscow welcome to the program. ready to fight suspicion and prejudice those were the words of russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov as he welcomed the u.s. secretary of state to the black sea resort city of sochi during my company's 1st official visit to the country both s

unique to russia to do that. there is any nk doubt that domestic politics president putin's calculus. i don't think i'm too far out of my lane as someone in uniform to assertion. with regard to what i think russia wants as well and i think to be the preeminent eurasia have been my judgment. you look at the path of and what development president putin has said, the taken, you have can't draw any other conclusion than that's what they're trying to do. >> if i could ask a favor, olks, to please have a moment for us to leave the stage, me in thank general dunford.

you look at the economics in russia, you look at some of the signs of this affection in russia. those three variables, but i think the evidence is pretty clear. the pattern of behavior is pretty clear. i don't think it is unique in russian history. they create an external challenge for a domestic issue. so you know i don't think there is any count that domestic politics bears on putin's calculations. i think what russia wants is to be the pre-eminent power in eur-asia. that is my judgement. if you look at crimea, the don boss, you can't draw any other conclusion of what they're trying to do. >> please let us have a minute to leave the stage before you get up, but on behalf of john allen, please welcome me in thanks chairman john dunford. >>> coming up later today, a conversation on how to deter cyber attacks. we'll hear from former directors of the cyber investigation intelligence center. a quick remind near you can follow our coverage online at c-span.org or listen with the free c-span radio app. >> watch commenceme menment spe all week on c-span. tonight former georgia democra

too much dependence on china economically expensive russia -- at the expense of russia. there is a concept of division of labor. anda can provide economics, russia can provide politics and security. this is seen by many as a flawed concept from the beginning. it is unlikely that china would like to provide only the economic role. years, sooner or later, china would like to andide a future security in centralenefits asia. we can already see it happening in pakistan. how touite an issue actually make this interest meat. there is general understanding and russia that cooperation is the best, at least trying to find how we can cooperate and contribute everyone should be on the agenda, at least at the top political level. again, it is not going to be easy. it is a very difficult task. i think the russian government understands well it is not going to be easy. just still better than .aking some balancing acts actually, a lot of countries, including central asian countries want infrastructure, want major powers to provide more incentives and to cooperate. >> great. let's open i

but in the kind of conflict with both china and russia. that of course then weakens-- we cannot use that relationship as the same degree but decisions for american diplomacy. we should avoid if we can being in conflict with two major powers that have access to each other. >> do you see that the united states and china given their competing interests and the rise of china, do you see coexistence being established peacefully or do you worry about the rising power and declining power usually ending up in a military conflict? >> historically. it is-- conflict because it's the essence of a rising power on the-- of the established power by virtue-- but we are in a historic position which is that technology has developed in such a manner that not only with the district the myths of weapons but with artificial intelligence that is evolving among inanimate objects, to unleash the full capabilities of either side or the other would have an impact in my opinion, equal or greater than what we saw in europe 100 years ago. so, i believe it will be a tas

., russia, china and north korea. from the brookings institution, this is one hour. >> good morning, and welcome to the brookings institution. my name is john allen. i am the president of bookings and i'm pleased this morning to look mauer honored guest, the 19 chairman of the joint chiefs of staff and my friend, general joe dunford. been chairford has of the joint chiefs of staff and prior to that, served as our commandant of the marine corps. they commanded all forces in afghanistan. general dunford and i have known each other for many years since we were captains, in fact. i can say with complete certainty and sincerity that he is one of the finest marines to have been minted in the modern era of the marine corps. in 1996, lieutenant colonel dunford would take command of the second battalion marines at camp lejeune in north carolina. years later in kabul we would repeat that. he would take command of the war effort in afghanistan. his storied career spans more than four decades of brilliant service to our country a

they deem him so that is also because you just brought up russia in grozny in this illusion though he could he did what we couldn't do like he killed and then revamped i think what it comes to russians that they the most definite difference with a western liberal values of tolerance is the fact that yeah in christianity russians are sort of like and not only like in this multiculturalism are. taught to love but to hate someone is not forbidden in russia as long as it doesn't turn into crime you can't really hate anyone in europe you know what i mean you can't really see anyone in america so in a sense we may be number 7 economy not number one but a much healthier society in terms that you don't tolerate someone that you hate and you can say that you hate him and it's ok to say that. to anybody except when the time comes and i think we're very close to getting to the same story when hitler imagine is. the most beautiful place where the germans. after $939.00 to come and or can make their own area that he's so the french it's true. but i think it's mostly coming to a discipline to be be

russia's foreign minister 30 plans to confront his u.s. counterpart at their upcoming meeting or how washington plans to sell of the crisis that they created over there a round of nuclear deal. that says any sudden change of plan the u.s. secretary of state has set up in moscow.

russia's president has told the u.s. secretary of state he thinks donald trump wants to repair relations like emir putin and my pompei all met in the russian city of sochi the 2 men discuss washington's standoff with iran and their differences over venezuela step fastener reports. they disagreed on nearly everything but michael visit to russia brought hope for a new start between.

instead the guides talk about russia's successes. moscow has been assisting the syrian military in its fight against isis since twenty fifteen and helping to keep president bashar al assad in power many visitors support this. are helping the degraded syrian people. so how and foremost successfully they say what does russia have to do with syria. well it's a substantial help for the country. so we can return to the well what's it called. peace. we have to show children weapons of war so they know war is bad. the families of some of the victims from private armies are fighting for some form of compensation among them all go michael over and her daughter they get nothing from the russian state even though the mitri was fighting alongside regular russian troops against the same enemy in syria that i think it would of course russians fighting international terrorism but why isn't there anything for the survivors. our government sends humanitarian aid to syria why aren't we getting any humanitarian aid we've lost our breadwinner. for two m

looking at russia's position when russia their foreign minister just a few moments ago said that the european signatories sent to fulfill their obligations. well i think in general we can really see that that there is increased expectations from the europeans to do something at the same time the chinese and the russians do also have their role in trying to make sure that this that this happens to to ensure that some form of trade with iran can be kept alive so it's not just on the the onus is not just on the europeans but it's obviously you know who are probably the most important partners for iran when it comes to proper economic relations and development and not just survive which can be secured with russia and china and how do you think the u.s. will be viewing this latest press conference between the two foreign ministers russia and iran because iran is clearly demonstrating that it's not powerless on the global stage and has powerful allies. i mean i expect the u.s. now to obviously say that this constitutes a substantial breach by the iranians of the g c p a and therefore try t
