those communist parties are very active and activist. they are fermenting strife, public disorder, protest, etc. economic crisis, plus the growth of political communist parties in france and italy make the picture look very bad, indeed. the u.s. cold war strategy has to attack these sources of instability. how do they do that? the argument is that the global economy has to be restarted, and economic activity in europe is the key to long-term, enduring success. that is the direction in which truman's cabinet is beginning to move. the occasional check being written to greece and turkey is not going to do it. the piecemeal approach, give a little money here, give a little money here, not good enough. there has got to be a bigger, bolder plan. the united states needs a plan for economic recovery. it's in that context, the tensions in germany, greece and turkey issue, context of growing economic chaos, that the u.s. secretary of state george marshall goes to the university of virginia -- sorry -- to harvard university to give a commencement s

communist party as they continue down these paths. maria: well, it's also about calling out the evil, right? in the last days of president trump's administration, your state department put out a statement with serious issues around the origins of the coronavirus. the statement said that the u.s. intelligence community had evidence that several researchers at the wuhan institute of virology lab were sick with covid-like symptoms in autumn of 2019. implying that the chinese government had hidden the effects and crucial information about the outbreak for months before the rest of the world was told about it. what do we know about the origins of the coronavirus at this point, secretary? and shouldn't we be hearing from the biden administration about this? as i've said many times, i have yet to hear president biden say that the coronavirus originated in china, in wuhan. obviously, he hasn't said that it originated in a lab which many of us believe, but he also has not discussed what the ccp if did after they learned of this virus, after th

the congress will also move to quash any criticism of the communist party china wants to tighten its grip further in hong kong the high profile trials of hong kong democracy activists has brought attention to beijing's crackdown in the territory it wants to ensure hong kong is firmly under the control of what the party calls chinese patriots. we've already seen some very difficult days recently and on kong i don't ask you months to sin again and again and see beijing his comment to be so he set the rules and all along change the laws give the night action and i think it will be very all eyes will be there to see is the n.p.c. yet this thing going to be getting more laws which are going to direct him and all kong i'm reducing the role of on kong holcombe people running on call the congress also gives an insight into china's defense budget last year military spending fell to its lowest in 3 decades. rising international tensions especially over taiwan but also over the south china sea could see the congress approving more money for the armed forces this year. she was the voice that car

but the communist party of china being the communist party of china, that's not how our confucius institutes have worked out. these institutes run by the authoritarian government of china will not allow the free exchange of ideas. they will not allow anyone to talk about the uighurs or the people of tibet or hong kong or what happened in tiananmen square. they basically, they meaning the communist party of china, have used these confucius institutes as propaganda arms of the government. many of our universities have done the right thing. they said, nope, we stand for the free exchange of ideas and if you're going to come to our campus and tell our people that there are things they can't talk about, thun you -- then you, the confucius institutes needs to leave our campus. some of the universities have not done the right thing. i'm not cynical enough to suggest that it's all about the money, but you can't ignore the fact that i think the communist party of china has given our universities, through the years, don't hold me it to this figure exactly, but about $150 million to set up these confuc

he is a powerfulfigure and there the communist party. he is a powerful figure and there is a cult of personality around him, in the propaganda from the communist party, the likes of which we have not seen see mouse tongue area, so the idea of him being in any way under threat from the party, it is nonexistent, so what he gets is what happens. for example, the number two figure in the party, he used to be quite a reasonably powerful position, much diminished now under the leadership of xijiping but nevertheless this is a person who delivers the government work report according to tradition.— tradition. and thanks to stephen _ tradition. and thanks to stephen there. - brazil's supreme federal court has ordered an inquiry into the sale of protected areas of the amazon rainforest on facebook. it follows a bbc investigation, which revealed plots as large as 1,000 football pitches listed in the platform's marketplace classified ads. bbc brasil�*sjoao fellet sent this report from sao paulo. the indigenous community says invasions here are g

party in the end. it's been a big year for china the only major economy to grow during the pandemic delegates are expected to approve its 5 year plan a blueprint to expand the middle class which already counts $400000000.00 people it's quick rebound from the coronavirus means china could own sees america as the world's largest economy by 2030 so sort of economic nerds are going to be looking much more at where the economy is in terms of movement through 'd 2021 year over year. but it's going to be you know it's good growth. will be around 7 or 8 percent would be my guess. president xi jinping will aim to keep the focus on national pride innovation and self-sufficiency. in the run up to the congress he launched a major propaganda campaign to claim poverty in rural china with over the congress will also move to quash any criticism of the communist party china wants to tighten its grip further in hong kong the high profile trials of hong kong democracy activists has brought attention to beijing's crackdow

parties and those communist parties are free have been freely elected. there's a anywhere between 25 and 30% of the votes at the ballot box is going to communist parties in france. and italy. this is not encouraging if you're harry truman and those communist parties are very active and activists. they're fomenting strikes public disorder disorder protests etc. so economic crisis plus the growth of political part of communist parties and france and italy make the picture look very bad indeed. so us cold war strategy to be successful has to attack these sources of instability. how do they do that? the argument is that the global economy has got to be restarted and economic activity in europe is the key to success long term enduring success. that's where the direction in which truman's cabinet is beginning to move. so the occasional check being written to greece and turkey that's not going to do it. the piecemeal approach give a little money here when there's a crisis in the near east give a little money here in the mediterranean not good enough. there's go

he said, "the chinese communist party's latest moves in hong kong mean that burnism is inevitable." now, burnism is a word he created. it basically means, as far as he's concerned, that hardcore pro—democracy people who see no future for peaceful activism in hong kong may be persuaded to take more direct form of action in the concept of, "if we burn, you burn with us." are you worried that, because of this crackdown — you don't like the word, but let's call it a crackdown — that there may be some in hong kong who will take desperate measures to oppose it? it is not a crackdown, and i'm glad you pick up this quote. it is precisely extremists like the councillor you quoted who chose to embrace this sort of extremism, mutual destruction, you know, all or nothing, that has got us into this position. they should have embraced beijing's offer of universal suffrage for electing a chief executive back in 2014. they should have accepted the liaison office's invitation to have a meal with them. they will not even go into the office of beijing's representation in hong kong. what sort of

the chinese communist party is destroying it. if congress passed a bill and said to the good people of hong kong who yearn for freedom come to america. we're going to follow our friends in britain, say come here. you want to get out from under the thumb of the communist party, come to america. we welcome you. do you think the fbi and law enforcement has the ability to screen for spies? one of the criticisms of the proposition i just stated is, well, we would be letting in spies. do you think based on your knowledge of security that we could catch most of the spies? >> well, i yield to no one, and my faith and confidence in the great work of the men and women in the fbi, but i will tell you that the chinese counterintelligence threat is the greatest threat, certainly the greatest counterintelligence threat that we face as a country. >> right. >> and the sheer number of what we would refer to as nontraditional collectors working on behalf of the chinese communist party is something that is a massive resource challenge for the fbi.

it's the chinese communist party and the nature of that party. that is the fundamental challenge and threat that we face. and so you can talk tough all you want. when you have to do is engage in policies that ensure that you win this competition. and by the way, these levers, these advantages that china has on certain members of congress and their families, look at what they have done to former secretary of state mike pompeo. they sanctioned him. they didn't like what he was doing. they pressured him. look what they're doing to australia right now. australia is standing up to china and some of their expansion it policies, they're not going to buy their coal or wine. i say buy a couple bottles of australian wine today. you'll enjoy it and you'll do something good for australia as well. maria: i agree. the australian government has been incredibly tough, they stand up to the ccp and big tech as well. sounds like china won the 2020 election, peter. >> i think china's very, very happy and there are been speeches in china, you've reported on some of t

the congress will also move to quash any criticism of the communist party china wants to tighten its grip further in hong kong the high profile trials of hong kong democracy activists has brought attention to beijing's crackdown in the territory it wants to ensure hong kong is firmly under the control of what the party calls chinese patriots. we've already seen some very difficult days recently on kong and over the past few months to sin again and again and see beijing as commenter beastly said rules and all wrong change the laws if the night action and i think it will be very all eyes will be there to see is the n.p.c. yet this thing going to be getting more laws which are going to direct him and all kong i'm reducing the role of on kong own people running on call to congress also gives an insight into china's defense budget last year military spending fell to its lowest in 3 decades. rising international tensions especially over taiwan but also over the south china sea could see the congress approving more money for the armed forces this year. she was the voice that carried the ina
