Chinese President Xi Jinping conveyed to former Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou on Wednesday that external interference would not impede the "family reunion" between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait. He emphasised that all issues are open for discussion. Since the Republic of China government retreated to Taiwan in 1949 following a civil war loss to Mao Zedong's communists, no sitting Taiwanese leader has visited China. However, Ma, who served as president from 2008 to 2016, broke this pattern last year, marking the first visit by a former Taiwanese leader to China. This visit, Ma's second, occurs amid heightened military tensions in the region.

16 Republican AGs Sue Biden Administration , for Pausing Liquid Natural Gas Exports.
The lawsuit was filed on March 21.
The states claim that the Biden administration
does not have the authority to deny
"federal permits for new liquid natural
gas (LNG) exports," 'The Hill' reports. .
The 16 attorneys general also allege
that the pause goes against Congress.
This ban disregards statutory mandates,
flouts the normal regulatory process, upends
the industry, disrupts Plaintiffs’ economies,
and subverts our constitutional structure, Via lawsuit.
These unlawful actions leave Plaintiffs
with no choice but to once more turn
to the courts to enforce the law, Via lawsuit.
The suit goes on to allege that the ban is
motivated by politics and comes "in the midst of an election year, and after a sustained pressure campaign from billionaire conglomerates, celebrities, ‘influencers,’ and banks.".
The timing of the decision, in an election
year, raises the likelihood that political
motivations drove the action, House Oversight Committee Republicans,
in a letter to Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm.
LNG, which is often considered to be
"a bridge between coal and renewables," was first pushed by the Obama administration.

On Thursday, rescuers tirelessly worked to clear mountains of rubble from the aftermath of a devastating Russian missile strike on Ukraine's cherished city of Chernihiv. The attack, which claimed the lives of at least 18 individuals, has reignited urgent appeals for international allies to reinforce Kyiv's already overstretched air defence capabilities. Three Russian missiles struck the northern Ukrainian city on Wednesday, leaving harrowing scenes of destruction and pools of blood in their wake. Amidst the chaos, rescue teams tirelessly searched for survivors and evacuated the injured on stretchers, underscoring the urgent need for support in the face of escalating violence. The official death count rose to 18 as of Thursday morning, with 77 people including four children injured, according to Ukraine's emergency services department.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said his forces launched an attack that destroyed the largest power-generating plant in the Kyiv region in retaliation for assaults against his own country’s energy sector. Putin insisted that Russia was "obliged" to launch strikes on Ukrainian energy sites. The repeated attacks on civilian power stations have sparked outrage from Ukraine's allies. Speaking to Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, President Putin argued that the attacks were only in response to Kyiv's attacks on Russian targets.

Over the past two years, Ukraine-US relations have strengthened amid the ongoing conflict. Despite US aid, Russia's influence in Eastern Ukraine has grown. A recent report claimed Trump proposed ceding territory to end the war, but he denied it. Zelensky warned against supporting Russia. Trump's foreign policy stance raises concerns about future aid to Ukraine. With Trump's potential candidacy, uncertainty looms over US-Ukraine relations.
