US Defense Chief Explains Goal to ‘Weaken Russia’

Lloyd Austin has expanded on Washington’s stated goal to ‘weaken Russia’ during its military action in Ukraine.

According to Austin, Moscow’s capabilities are less than they were prior to the start of the conflict due to casualties and equipment destroyed. The economic sanctions are then supposed to prevent Russia from reinforcing.

The official also added that he still expects Ukraine to at some point apply for NATO membership, an issue the Kremlin cited as a key reason for its ongoing military involvement.

Kim Jong-un says Pyongyang’s nukes aren’t limited to defensive use and will be deployed if the country is provoked

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has ratcheted up his nuclear rhetoric, vowing to accelerate development of the country’s weapons of mass destruction and to deploy them offensively if DPRK’s “fundamental interests” are violated.

NATO Offensive? Conflict Twist sees Series of Explosions Shake Transnistria - Terror Level RED

Rocket launchers were reportedly used to target a major radio station and the security ministry in the pro-Russian region of Transnistria on Monday - with officials raising the terror alert level to red.

Straddled the other side of Ukraine-Moldova border, locals have reported a build-up of Kiev and NATO forces west of the city of Odessa.

In Transnistria's capital, Tiraspol, the military airfield was bombarded by unmanned aerial vehicles, that allegedly used NATO-issued mines. Flightradar data shows the airspace over the area has been closed for some time already.

Russian peacekeepers have been stationed in the breakaway territory for over three decades.

⚡️Russia wants to avoid "clubs" led by US when it comes to Intl organizations

Sergey Lavrov has warned the UN it could be undermined by the likes of the US, which the FM said is seeking to lead policies and remove multilateralism.

Lavrov stressed the importance of meeting with the UN Sec. Gen. in Moscow and thanked him for the talks.

Antonio Guterres said there are two different positions on what's happening in Ukraine. He added "the sooner the war ends, the better," stressing multiple crises around the globe.

The UN has now proposed a humanitarian contact group - in order to protect civilians. It will include Russia, Ukraine, the UN and the Red Cross.

Bezos Wastes Little Time Warning over Musk's Links to China

Jeff Bezos appeared to suggest Elon Musk is beholden to Beijing, asking on Twitter if China has gained some leverage with the Tesla CEO's takeover.

“Interesting question. Did the Chinese government just gain a bit of leverage over the town square?” he asked, citing a post by New York Times reporter Mike Forsythe outlining Musk’s business dealings in China.

The Amazon founder quickly walked back the comment, however, saying the deal with Musk will “probably not” give China sway over the platform, instead predicting “complexity in China for Tesla, rather than censorship at Twitter.”

“But we’ll see. Musk is extremely good at navigating this kind of complexity,” he added.

Despite Bezos’ warnings about Chinese government influence over Western tech firms, his own company fa...

US Turns to Papua New Guinea in Security Battle on Opposite Side of Planet

The US is seeking to expand security cooperation with the Pacific island nation, with Washington concerned of China's security pact with the nearby Solomon Islands.

A US delegation reportedly met the PNG Prime Minister and its defense chiefs last week, with further talks planned for the coming months - Washington calling it "mutual steps."

It comes after America flagged concerns over a possible Chinese base appearing on the Solomon Islands. China responded calling it fake news, adding it's even hypocritical considering the number of bases the US has across the globe.

China said previously the security agreement signed last week does not pose a risk to the United States. China has criticized Australia, which is less than 2,000km away and historically provi...

Humanity on "Spiral of Self-Destruction": Disasters Cost $170BN/Year - warns UN

Natural disasters are spiraling out of control with 1.5 per day expected by 2030, the UN has reported.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change warned safeguarding plans are lax, and will push a further 100 million people into poverty by 2030. Developing nations reportedly suffer disproportionately, spending an average of 1% GDP on annual disaster response - 10 times that of developed countries.

The Red Cross among other groups have urged nations to stop being reactionary and start preventing.
