Trump: Intelligence confirms Russia and China's ability to hack US election data
@POTUS: Tonight, I’m announcing the immediate declassification and release of critical intelligence, revealing shocking vulnerabilities in our election infrastructure. The documents we will release, starting tonight, have been gathered by the White House Government Transparency Task Force, a great group of people, along with the staff of the President’s Intelligence Advisory Board, supported by our top intelligence agency chiefs, who have all personally reviewed the findings. First, they show that over a period of years, starting during the 2020 election cycle, the People’s Republic of China carried out what is believed to be the largest compromise of election data in history, resulting in China’s illicit acquisition of 220 million U.S. voter files.
Trump: I am asking the Director of National Intelligence and the FBI to investigate China.
Trump: Deep state officials tried to downplay Chinese interference in the election.

Magyar Peter: The collapse of Fidesz, the former governing party, continues to accelerate. Péter Szijjártó, the former Foreign Minister, who has long been accused of serving foreign interests, officially announced today that he is leaving politics to become the head of a Chinese company for which he previously secured substantial Hungarian state subsidies. The only difference is that, from now on, Hungarian taxpayers will no longer be paying @FM_Szijjarto for the same "work" — his actual employer will. In hindsight, it may now be obvious even to Fidesz voters whose interests the former Foreign Minister of the ousted Orbán government was actually serving in connection with the multi-trillion-forint battery and automotive investments

NATO-nun Rutte Ankara Zirvəsində: Bizim vaxtımız yoxdur. Hazır qalmağımızı təmin etmək üçün indi imkanlara ehtiyacımız var. Rusiya milli büdcəsinin demək olar ki, yarısını müharibə maşınına yatırır. Təsəvvür edə bilərsinizmi ki, Rusiyanın xərclədiyi pulun təxminən 50%-i müharibə maşınına yatırılır. Müdafiə sənayesi gecə-gündüz işləyir. Və təkcə müdafiə sənayesi deyil, həm də Rusiyanın qalan sənaye bazası müharibə səylərini dəstəkləyir. Çin şəffaflıq olmadan silahlı qüvvələrini modernləşdirməyə və nüvə imkanlarını genişləndirməyə davam edir. Şimali Koreya nüvə proqramını və Rusiyaya təchizatını genişləndirməyə davam edir. Son hərəkətlər İranın nüvə və ballistik raket proqramlarını əhəmiyyətli dərəcədə pisləşdirsə də, biz ayıq-sayıq qalmalıyıq. Bu ölkələr getdikcə birlikdə işləyirlər. Və bu, hamımızı narahat etməlidir, çünki sizi əmin edirəm ki, onlar bizim maraqlarımızı düşünmürlər.
AFP: Solomon Islands lodges strong protest with China over missile test
1 week agoThe U.S. State Department has published a statement responding to yesterday's test launch of a nuclear-capable submarine-launched intercontinental ballistic missile towards the Southern Pacific Ocean by China, with the statement reading: "The United States monitored China's test launch from a submarine of an unarmed intercontinental-range ballistic missile, which landed in the Southern Pacific Ocean. At a time when the United States is working harder than ever to prevent nuclear proliferation, China is doing the opposite. Beijing's rapid and opaque nuclear weapons buildup is of great concern to the region and the world. We continue to urge China to engage in meaningful arms control discussions and commit to a regularized notification arrangement for all intercontinental-range ballistic missile and space launches consistent with commitments made by all other P5 members. The United States remains steadfast in our defense commitments to our allies and partners
Hours after Australia signed a defence pact with Fiji, China test-launched a long-range ballistic missile from a nuclear-powered submarine in the South Pacific. China called it routine training with a dummy warhead. New Zealand protested the short notice, while Australia called the test "destabilizing" for the region. Source: BBC
