If the growth of the Chinese aviation market is allowed to continue unchecked and without concern for equality of access in the market, flights will continue to be relinquished to Chinese carriers at the expense of U.S. workers and businesses, Airlines for America open letter, via CNN.

CNN reports that the Biden administration said in February that it would allow Chinese airlines to increase the number of direct passenger flights to the United States.

At the time, U.S. officials granted Chinese carriers approval to make 50 weekly round-trip flights, increased from 35 amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Prior to the pandemic, over 150 weekly flights were allowed.

China's Foreign Ministry defended the increased number of flights, citing a "consensus reached" in November between Chinese leader Xi Jinping and U.S. President Joe Biden.

“No Deal? Too Bad” — Trump Threatens Massive Sanctions on Russia as 50-Day Deadline Looms

U.S President Donald Trump has issued a blistering 50-day warning to Russia: reach a deal, or face the full force of U.S. tariffs and sanctions. Speaking on the Ukraine-Russia war, Biden declared he’s “on nobody’s side” — except the side that wants the killing to stop. But if Moscow doesn’t act, the U.S. is ready to strike economically. With time ticking and global tensions high, this could mark a major turning point in the war — or a slide into deeper confrontation. What happens if the Kremlin refuses? And is Biden ready to follow through? #Biden #Russia #UkraineWar #Putin #BidenSpeech #USPolitics #Sanctions #Tariffs #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #UkraineCrisis #RussiaSanctions #BidenWarning #InternationalRelations #GlobalTensions #BidenVsPutin ~PR.274~HT.408~ED.194~

Trump DEFENDS Pam Bondi Amid Epstein Files Fury, Accuses ‘Selfish’ MAGA World Of Undermining Bondi [Video]

Trump DEFENDS Pam Bondi Amid Epstein Files Fury, Accuses ‘Selfish’ MAGA World Of Undermining Bondi

President Donald Trump vigorously defended Attorney General Pam Bondi’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein documents, accusing his own MAGA allies of orchestrating an unfair campaign against her. At a recent rally, he lambasted critics, saying they’re “all going after AG Pam Bondi” despite her "fantastic job." Trump blamed "selfish people" for obsessing over the Epstein Files—penned by Obama, Hillary Clinton, Comey, Brennan, and Biden appointees—rather than celebrating what he calls “the perfect administration.” He claimed MAGA is being undermined by endless distractions and urged focus on issues like border security, Energy Dominance, election fraud, and public safety. Trump dismissed calls for renewed scrutiny of Epstein, referencing fallout from alleged “fake dossiers” and expanded investigations. He praised Bondi’s ongoing work into the 2020 election and emphasized America’s resurgence. His remarks reignited MAGA infighting and shifted attention from past controversies to future political battles. #Trump #PamBondi #EpsteinFiles #MAGA #AGDefense #ElectionFraud #SelfishCritics #BorderSecurity #EnergyDominance #FEMA #MakeAmericaGreatAgain #TrumpRally #EpsteinDocs #ObamaComeyBrennan #FakeDossier #2020Election #MAGAConflict #ElectionInvestigation #TrumpSpeech #BondiDefense ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.122~

Taiwan's largest-ever Military Drills| Taipei stares China in the eye| Xi Jinping scared of invasion

Taiwan is conducting its largest-ever 10-day Han Kuang military drills amid escalating threats from China. Featuring high-tech weaponry and rapid-response simulations, the exercises aim to defend the capital against a potential PLA invasion. President Lai Ching-te inspected the drills, which included a night blockade of the Wanban Bridge and "defence-in-depth" strategies. Taiwan's show of force comes as 26 PLA aircraft and multiple Chinese vessels were spotted near its territory, escalating tensions with Beijing, which continues to pressure Taiwan under its “One China” policy. #TaiwanDrills #HanKuang2025 #TaiwanDefense #ChinaThreat #XiJinping #PLA #OneChinaPolicy #LaiChingTe #MilitaryDrills #WanbanBridge #IndoPacificTensions #TaiwanVsChina #SelfRuledTaiwan #TaiwanSecurity #TaiwanNews #TaiwanArmy #DefenceInDepth #PLAIncursions #Geopolitics #EastAsia #USChinaTensions #RegionalSecurity #AsiaWatch #ChinaTaiwanCrisis #BreakingNews #TaiwanStandsStrong #IslandDefense #TaiwanPrepares #MilitaryShowdown #DemocracyVsDictatorship Also Read EAM S Jaishankar To Arrive In Beijing Today As India-China Aims To Reset Ties :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/eam-s-jaishankar-to-arrive-in-beijing-today-as-india-china-aims-to-reset-ties-011-7800335.html?ref=DMDesc China’s ‘Red Uncle’ Scandal: Man Disguises As Woman, Secretly Films S*x With 1,600 Men :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/china-s-red-uncle-scandal-man-disguises-as-woman-secretly-films-s-x-with-1-600-men-7798905.html?ref=DMDesc AI Usage Can Lead To Dark Personality Traits And Misconduct: Study :: https://www.oneindia.com/artificial-intelligence/ai-usage-can-lead-to-dark-personality-traits-and-misconduct-study-011-7795405.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~GR.125~ED.103~

Jaishankar Meets Xi in China for FIRST Time Since Deadly Galwan Clash |India FLAGS Rare Earth Block

In a significant diplomatic development, India's External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar met with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing on July 15th, on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit. This high-stakes meeting marked Jaishankar's first visit to China since the deadly 2020 Galwan Valley border clash, signalling a cautious step toward the normalization of ties between the two Asian giants. During his visit, Jaishankar also held talks with Chinese Vice President Han Zheng and Foreign Minister Wang Yi, advocating for a "far-seeing" and strategic approach to the bilateral relationship. The core of the discussions revolved around the protracted border standoff in Eastern Ladakh. Jaishankar firmly reiterated India's position, stressing that complete troop disengagement in the remaining friction points of Depsang and Demchok is a prerequisite for restoring normalcy and rebuilding trust. He emphasized that peace and tranquility along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) are fundamental to the overall development of India-China relations. A key highlight of the meeting was Jaishankar's subtle but sharp criticism of China's recent export curbs on rare earth minerals, a move that directly threatens India's critical manufacturing and high-tech sectors. With China controlling over 90% of the global rare earth output, Beijing wields significant economic leverage, a point not lost on the Indian delegation. Despite the diplomatic optics of cooperation within the SCO framework, deep-seated strategic mistrust remains a major obstacle. The talks were overshadowed by recent revelations from Lt Gen Rahul Singh that China had provided live intelligence, weapons, and drones to Pakistan during a previous conflict. This underscores the challenge India faces, dealing with China's "sweet diplomacy" on one hand and its "cunning moves" on the other, proving that a real thaw in relations will require more than just high-level meetings. #IndiaChina #SJaishankar #XiJinping #BreakingNews #OneindiaNews #LAC #Geopolitics #Ladakh #SCOSummit #WorldNews Also Read Normalisation Of India-China Ties Can Produce Beneficial Outcomes: Jaishankar In Beijing :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/normalisation-of-india-china-ties-can-produce-beneficial-outcomes-jaishankar-in-beijing-7800377.html?ref=DMDesc Is Xi Jinping Preparing To Step Down As Chinese President?
