Taiwan “Can’t Afford” New US Anti-sub Helicopters

Taiwan will ditch plans to buy up 12 American MH-60R anti-submarine choppers because the price is too high, contradicting reports the US backed out of the deal as it “wasn’t in line with the island’s needs”.

Two other arms deals have been pushed back, for Howitzer artillery systems, and mobile Stinger anti-aircraft missiles, after shipments for both were promised to Ukraine.

Taiwan Defense Minister Chiu Kuo-cheng insisted his government had already signed contracts and paid for those deliveries, and would press Washington to fulfill obligations.

Popular Ukrainian Zelensky critic arrested in Spain

Prominent blogger Anatoly Shariy was arrested on Wednesday in a joint operation by Spanish, Ukrainian police, and international partners, the SBU said in a statement.

Shariy is wanted by Kiev on charges of treason, as well as infringing Ukraine’s national security through his activities in the media realm.

He had been granted political asylum in the EU by Lithuania in 2012, after fleeing persecution by the Yanukovych govt, whom Western media often branded pro-Russian.

After the Maidan coup in 2014 the blogger remained a harsh critic of Ukrainian authorities - including former President Petro Poroshenko and his successor Zelensky.
