"The theater forces will maintain a high state of alert at all times and take all necessary measures to resolutely safeguard national sovereignty and security and peace and stability in the South China Sea," said Tian Junli, a spokesman for China's Southern Theatre Command.
March 23 (Reuters) - The United States and Canada have reached a deal that would allow for the closure of an unofficial border crossing between New York state and the province of Quebec, but the final details still need to be worked out, a Canadian government source familiar with the talks told Reuters.
The United States has been shoring up alliances in the Asia-Pacific seeking to counter China's assertiveness in the South China Sea and the Taiwan Strait, as Beijing seeks to advance its territorial claims.
Florida authorities brought the felony charge because of information submitted by Virginia to a national database called ERIC, which is short for the Electronic Registration Information Center. A 59-year-old man was arrested last week for allegedly double voting in the 2020 presidential election.
Novak Djokovic said he had no regrets about missing tournaments at Indian Wells and Miami due to his Covid-19 vaccination status but hoped that he would be allowed into the United States later this year for the US Open.
The attorneys general letter said the automakers had failed to take adequate steps to address the alarming rate of theft and urged them to accelerate the implementation of the software upgrade and provide free alternative protective measures for owners whose cars cannot support the software upgrade.
vehicles that are prone to theft. WASHINGTON, March 20 (Reuters) - A group of 22 U.S.
state attorneys general on Monday blasted Hyundai Motor and Kia Corp and said they need do more to address problems with millions of U.S.
BRUSSELS, March 20 (Reuters) - European Union member states have agreed to supply one million rounds of artillery ammunition to Ukraine, Estonian Defence Minister Hanno Pevkur said on the sidelines of a meeting with his EU counterparts in Brussels on Monday.
Earlier this month, Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison said he had launched a civil investigation into Kia and Hyundai´s sale of vehicles to Minnesota consumers that lacked industry-standard, anti-theft technology and sought documents and answer questions under oath.
Whether it´s accelerating the end of gas-fired plants, oil drilling and internal-combustion cars, or clearing the way for vehicle electrification and wind and solar energy production and transmission, there are thousands of opportunities to avoid the very worst possibilities for our future. From local government to heads of state, officials at all levels should exercise whatever authority they have to dismantle the dangerous machinery of fossil fuels and replace it quickly with clean, renewable energy.
President Biden last week approved the massive Willow oil drilling project in Alaska, giving ConocoPhillips permission to extract as much as 600 million barrels of oil over 30 years and breaking his campaign promise of "no more drilling on federal lands. China has been permitting new coal-fired power plants at a staggering rate of two per week. Period." (Yes, he said it four times for emphasis.)
Some now aspire to a society and government that looks beyond sectarianism and towards a brighter future, as the 2019 Tishreen movement, and the re-emergence of participants in 2021´s elections, showed. It may be many more years before we fully reckon the effects of the catastrophe unleashed two decades ago. Yet the low turnout underscored that others have given up on democracy, thanks to those who boasted that they were bringing it to justify their war. More than half of Iraqis are too young to remember life under Saddam Hussein.
After a decade of operating in near-obscurity, lies about ERIC began bubbling up from the fever swamps, such as that George Soros was behind the project and that the initiative is a left-wing plot to add more racial minorities to the voter rolls.
The free upgrade will be offered for 3.8 million Hyundai and 4.5 million Kia vehicles, the automakers and NHTSA said.
Hyundai said the upgrade applies to various U.S. 2011 through 2022 model year vehicles.
A new Federal Reserve program that offers subsidized loans to banks is also a good idea under the circumstances. President Biden´s pledge on Monday that "we´ll do whatever is needed" was needed. The government´s decision to guarantee the full amount of insured and uninsured deposits at Silicon Valley Bank and New York´s Signature Bank is the best choice available to preserve the health of the broader economy.
The attacks on the database aren´t really about ERIC.
They´re part of a broader, multiyear campaign to bully elections officials. Now many of these same people are trying to destroy one of the country´s best tools for fighting the rare cases of voter fraud that do occur. Demagogues have planted seeds of doubt in the minds of Americans that their votes don´t count.
