a 15% tariff within 150 days For global goods f a longer extension is desired the parliament will approve it However he emphasized that as president I don't need to return to parliament to seek approval for tariffs—they were approved long ago various forms This statement is interpreted as a signal that the Palace of White House has already prepared to increase mpose higher taxes on countries

ruling Judge Connell wrote that Special Prosecutor Chuck Smith and his team For several months he has continued preparing classified reports utilizing evidence gathered from various sources the case and consuming government funds In her view this is going against the ruling e court issued in 2024 Previously Mr Chuck Smith had investigated Mr Trump regarding The 2020 election and allegations of retaining classified documents led to two indictments However all prosecutions ended in dismissal On July 15 2024 Judge Connell she determined that appointing Mr Smith violated the constitutional

the federal indictment related to the case Classified document The Department of Justice had previously appealed but withdrew the appeal after Mr Trump's re-election In her latest ruling Judge Connell

that although special prosecutors had previously issued reports Finally after completing the mission it seemed that prosecution would be dropped—only in one decisive case or after the defendant has confessed or been found guilty the court finds it difficult to establish a precedent for disclosure report issued after indictment but before a guilty verdict According to the ruling all relevant parties involved are agreed that the report should not be released after Mr Trump began his second term The Department of Justice has changed its position and believes the reports should not be

General Dan Kent has warned President Donald Trump and senior officials A military campaign targeting Iran could entail significant risks particularly the danger of becoming bogged down in a prolonged conflict A high-level debate is underway within the Trump administration over how to handle tensions with Tehran Some officials are urging caution despite reports suggesting Trump is leaning toward an attack According to sources no one proposed sending ground troops into combat Yet the central question remains: what goal would military action achieve and at what cost General Kent is highly regarded for being the president's most trusted senior military advisor Although he had strongly backed the campaign to arrest Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela he is believed to be more cautious regarding Iran A source described him as a reluctant warrior in this dossier Two other sources indicate that he viewed the risk level in Iran as significantly higher with a greater likelihood of U S personnel getting stuck and suffering casualties Reports indicate that General Kent is not in favor of launching an attack but will support and carry out whatever decision the President makes Meanwhile another source stated that Mr Kent did not question the military campaign while remaining清醒 and realistic about the chances of success as well as the consequences following the outbreak of war Joint Chiefs of Staff spokesperson Joe Holtz emphasized that The chairman provides a military option along with associated risks and impacts for civilian leaders to make decisions Vice President J D Vann also reportedly expressed concerns about the risk of getting bogged down though he did not entirely oppose the attack plan He hopes the talks in Geneva can yield a breakthrough but is not optimistic about reaching an agreement Meanwhile special envoy Charles Kushner and Steve Wilcox are urging the president to grant diplomacy more time According to a source Trump has leaned toward the option of launching an attack in recent days but agreed to extend negotiations to ensure all options are fully explored On the other side Senator Lindsey Graham delivered a forceful speech in strong support of military action He is concerned that prolonging the negotiations could force the U S to accept an unfavorable agreement Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is also reportedly growing increasingly concerned that Washington might move ahead without Israel On social media President Trump wrote tha I'm the one making the decision and I want a better deal But if we don't reach an agreement it will be a very bad day for that country The United States pushes for a new nuclear arms control treaty with Russia and China in Geneva A senior U S State Department official said Washington has met with the Russian delegation Geneva on February 23 and will continue meeting with Chinese representatives on February 24 o discuss the possibility of establishing a new multilateral nuclear control treaty This move

officially expired at the beginning of the month President Donald Trump stated he would not extend the treaty with Moscow and is seeking a broader more comprehensive agreement Secretary of State Marco Rubio emphasized that any future arms control agreement must include China However the Chinese ambassador responsible for disarmament previously stated that Beijing is not yet ready participate in negotiations with the United States and Russia It remains unclear whether the February 24 meeting was an official negotiation or merely a preliminary exchange Speaking in Geneva U S Assistant Secretary of State for Arms Control Christopher Yorke criticized China's expansion of its nuclear arsenal He stated that despite Beijing's denials China is deliberately and unchecked expanding the scale of its nuclear weapons arsenal According to U S estimates when New Star was signed in 2010 China possessed approximately 200 nuclear weapons Washington believes that by 2030 China could have enough fissile material to produce over 1 000 warheads The Trump administration also intensified allegations regarding China's nuclear testing activities Deputy Foreign Minister for Arms Control Thomas Di Nanno accused China of conducting a secret nuclear test in 2020 Last week Mr Christopher Yorke reiterated that Washington had obtained the information regarding China's nuclear test believing the explosion could take place at Lobnos in Xinjiang e area has long been regarded as China's nuclear testing site Newstar previously limited the number of deployed nuclear warheads on each side to 1 550 units while also controlling intercontinental ballistic missiles submarine-launched missiles and strategic bombers The agreement was extended to February 5 2026 during President Joe Biden's administration China tightens outbound travel restrictions for retired officials The Chinese Communist Party is intensifying its control over retired officials The requirement is increasingly forcing more people to seek approval before traveling abroad In recent months sources indicate that Beijing has not only tightened control over incumbent civil servants and also expanded surveillance to include retired officials Catholic clergy and certain citizens requiring exit permits All interviewees disclosed either their real names or pseudonyms out of fear of retaliation According to previous regulations officials at the department head level and above as well as retired officials at the bureau level and above were required to obtain permission from the local party organization before traveling abroad However Chu a Beijing civil servant said the current scope of control has been expanded She stated that officials' departure from the country always requires approval Previously the rules were not strictly enforced for retired individuals Currently some department heads from underperforming divisions who are retiring must also submit plans for overseas travel And those in special positions had their passports confiscated collectively A former department head from Jiangsu province said He was informed that he needed to obtain permission from his previous unit before proceeding with exit procedures He said that in the past this requirement mainly applied to bureau-level officials No even someone like me a retired department-level official is still being controlled According to internal guidelines issued on January 16 2024 Local-level officials wishing to travel abroad after retirement must obtain approval from the commission The provincial party committee must approve requests from county and departmental party committees which in turn must seek permission from the city-level party committee In other cases permission must be requested from the previous authority A former deputy department head in Hunan stated that the personnel department is holding onto passports and travel permits His Hong Kong-Macau trip Before leaving the country he must submit his flight itinerary The tightening measures come amid Beijing's intensified scrutiny of overseas connections especially the campaign targeting individuals whose spouses or children reside abroad Taiwanese researcher Shen Mingshi observed that this phenomenon reflects a lack of trust in the system He cited the widely held saying that resisting America is a duty but living in America is the real goal Meanwhile some believe that tightening restrictions on officials traveling abroad reflects growing concerns e Chinese Communist Party's grip on power It is known that the increasingly tight control Retirement officials' overseas activities are considered part of a strategy to mitigate political risks and oversee the international connections of China's LGBTQ+ community Now Ngoc Vy
