Biden’s
doctor says he’s ‘improving significantly’; throat still sore from
COVID-Other symptoms, including cough, runny nose and body aches, ‘have
diminished considerably,’ president’s physician says three days after
diagnosis was announced-By CHRIS MEGERIAN-JUL 24,22-Today, 8:40 pm 0
WASHINGTON
(AP) — US President Joe Biden continues to “improve significantly,”
despite a lingering sore throat from his coronavirus infection,
according to an update Sunday from his doctor.“The president is
responding to therapy as expected,” wrote Dr. Kevin O’Connor in his
latest note. Biden has been taking Paxlovid, an antiviral drug that
helps reduce the chance of severe illness.O’Connor wrote that Biden
still has a sore throat, though other symptoms, including a cough, runny
nose, and body aches, “have diminished considerably.”Biden tested
positive for the coronavirus on Thursday morning. O’Connor said Saturday
that the president likely became infected with a highly contagious
variant, known as BA.5, that is spreading throughout the country, and
Dr. Ashish Jha, the White House COVID-19 response coordinator, said
Sunday, “It is the BA.5 variant.”“Thank goodness, our vaccines and
therapeutics work well against it, which is why I think the president’s
doing well,” Jha told CBS’s “Face the Nation.”Jha also gave a positive
update on the president’s health.White House COVID-19 Response
Coordinator Dr. Asish Jah confirms that President Biden was infected
with the BA.5 variant of COVID 19 and is “doing just fine.”
pic.twitter.com/ABiue2Y7xw — Face The Nation (@FaceTheNation) July 24,
2022“I checked in with his team late last night. He was feeling well. He
had a good day yesterday,” Jha said.That variant is an offshoot of the
Omicron strain that emerged late last year. It is believed to be
responsible for the vast majority of coronavirus cases in the US. Biden
has been isolating in the White House residence since
then.Administration officials have emphasized that his symptoms are mild
because he had received four vaccine doses, and he started taking the
antiviral drug Paxlovid after becoming infected.Jha pledged that the
White House would keep giving updates on the president’s condition and
whether he might have long-term symptoms.“We think it’s really important
for the American people to know how well their president is doing,” he
said.“Obviously, if he has persistent symptoms, obviously, if any of
them interfere with his ability to carry out his duties, we will
disclose that early and often with the American people. But I suspect
that this is going to be a course of COVID that we’ve seen in many
Americans who have ben fully vaccinated, double-boosted, getting treated
with those tools in hand,” Jha said. “The president’s been doing well
and we’re going to expect that he’s going to continue to do so.’’Biden’s
press secretary said that 17 people, including members of the
president’s senior staff and at least one member of Congress, were
determined to have been in close contact with Biden when he might have
been contagious. None has tested positive so far, Jha said on “Fox News
Sunday.”
Jordan’s king protests attacks by Iran-backed militias
on border, hosts PA’s Abbas-Abdullah says he seeks good relations with
Tehran but requires mutual respect of sovereignty; monarch, Palestinian
leader discuss Biden’s recent visit to region, ‘Israeli crimes’-By TOI
staff and AFP-JUL 24,22-Today, 5:30 pm 1
King Abdullah II blamed a
series of recent deadly clashes with drug smugglers along Jordan’s
border with Syria on “militias linked to Iran.”In an interview published
Sunday in the Al-Rai newspaper, Abdullah claimed that Jordan faces
“regular attacks on its borders by militias linked to Iran.” He called
for “a change of behavior by Iran” and said that Jordan “does not want
tensions in the region.”“Jordan, like the rest of the Arab countries,
seeks good relations with Iran, with mutual respect, good
neighborliness, respect for the sovereignty of other states and
non-interference in their affairs,” the king said.Abdullah said that
Jordan, like other Arab nations, was being targeted by smugglers of
drugs and arms that he said were in transit to Europe.“Jordan is
coordinating with its brothers [Arab countries] to confront this and
protect its borders,” he said.The Jordanian army conducts regular
anti-smuggling operations on the border with Syria, where Iran-backed
fighters support the Damascus regime in a civil war that erupted in
2011.On January 27, Amman said its forces killed 27 drug traffickers
supported by armed groups, seizing a large quantity of drugs. An officer
and a border guard were killed in a similar clash earlier the same
month.According to organizations that monitor drug trafficking, the
increasingly popular amphetamine-style stimulant captagon is produced in
government-controlled areas of Syria and marketed almost exclusively in
the Middle East.Also on Sunday, Abdullah hosted Palestinian Authority
President Mahmoud Abbas at his palace in Amman in their fourth meeting
in five months.Abbas briefed Abdullah on “the latest political
developments in Palestine and the challenges facing our people as a
result of the continuing Israeli crimes,” according to the official PA
news agency Wafa.“The two leaders discussed bilateral relations and
common issues between the two brotherly countries, as well as the latest
political developments in the region,” the agency said.The pair also
discussed US President Joe Biden’s recent visit to the region, which
included stops in East Jerusalem and the West Bank.Abdullah “stressed
the firm position of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan towards the
Palestinian cause and the kingdom’s unswerving support for the
Palestinian people in obtaining their just and legitimate rights,”
according to Wafa.
The Canadian Press-Milley: China more aggressive, dangerous to US, allies-Sun, July 24, 2022 at 2:43 a.m.
JAKARTA,
Indonesia (AP) — The Chinese military has become significantly more
aggressive and dangerous over the past five years, the top U.S. military
officer said during a trip to the Indo-Pacific that included a stop
Sunday in Indonesia.Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of
Staff, said the number of intercepts by Chinese aircraft and ships in
the Pacific region with U.S. and other partner forces has increased
significantly over that time, and the number of unsafe interactions has
risen by similar proportions.“The message is the Chinese military, in
the air and at sea, have become significantly more and noticeably more
aggressive in this particular region,” said Milley, who recently asked
his staff to compile details about interactions between China and the
U.S. and others in the region.His comments came as the U.S. redoubles
its efforts to strengthen its relationships with Pacific nations as a
counterbalance to China, which is trying to expand its presence and
influence in the region. The Biden administration considers China its
“pacing threat" and America's primary long-term security
challenge.Milley's trip to the region is sharply focused on the China
threat. He will attend a meeting of Indo-Pacific chiefs of defense this
week in Sydney, Australia, where key topics will be China's escalating
military growth and the need to maintain a free, open and peaceful
Pacific.U.S. military officials have also raised alarms about the
possibility that China could invade Taiwan, the democratic, self-ruled
island that Beijing views as a breakaway province. China has stepped up
its military provocations against Taiwan as it looks to intimidate it
into unifying with the communist mainland.U.S. military officials have
said Beijing wants to be ready to make a move on the island by 2027. The
U.S. remains Taiwan’s chief ally and supplier of defense weapons. U.S.
law requires the government to treat all threats to the island as
matters of “grave concern,” but remains ambiguous on whether the U.S.
military would defend Taiwan if it were attacked by China.China’s top
military officer, Gen. Li Zuocheng told Milley in a July 7 call that
Beijing had “no room for compromise” on issues such as Taiwan. He said
he told Milley that the U.S. must “cease U.S.-Taiwan military collusion
and avoid impacting China-U.S. ties and stability in the Taiwan
Strait."The U.S. and others are also worried that a recent security
agreement that Beijing signed in April with the Solomon Islands could
lead to the establishment of a Chinese naval base in the South Pacific.
The U.S. and Australia have told the Solomon Islands that hosting a
Chinese military base would not be tolerated.“This is an area in which
China is trying to do outreach for their own purposes. And again, this
is concerning because China is not doing it just for benign reasons,”
Milley told reporters traveling with him. “They’re trying to expand
their influence throughout the region. And that has potential
consequences that are not necessarily favorable to our allies and
partners in the region."Milley's visit to Indonesia is the first by a
U.S. joint chiefs chairman since Adm. Mike Mullen in 2008. But U.S.
leaders have crisscrossed the Asia-Pacific in recent months, including
high-profile visits by Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Secretary of
State Antony Blinken.The Biden administration has been taking steps to
expand its military and security relationship with Indo-Pacific nations
as part of a campaign to build a stronger network of alliances in
China’s backyard and counter China's growing influence.Milley declined
to provide specific numbers of unsafe Chinese interactions with U.S. and
allied aircraft and ships. But Austin, in a speech in Singapore last
month, referred to an “alarming increase" in the number of unsafe
intercepts by People's Liberation Army aircraft and vessels.Austin
specifically pointed to a February incident where a PLA navy ship
directed a laser at an Australian P-8 maritime patrol aircraft. But
there have been a number of others. A surveillance aircraft controlled
by Canada was recently intercepted by a Chinese fighter in international
airspace. And U.S. ships are routinely dogged by Chinese aircraft and
vessels during transits, particularly around manmade islands claimed by
Beijing in the South China Sea.Milley said there have been Chinese
intercepts with Japan, Canada, Australia, Philippines and Vietnam. They
all, he said, have seen a “statistically significant” increase in
intercepts, and the number of unsafe incidents has increased by an
“equal proportion.”Milley, who will meet with Gen. Andika Perkasa, chief
of the Indonesian National Defence Forces, said Pacific nations like
Indonesia want the U.S. military involved and engaged in the region.“We
want to work with them to develop interoperability and modernize our
militaries collectively," Milley said, in order to ensure they can "meet
whatever challenge that China poses.”He said Indonesia is strategically
critical to the region, and has long been a key U.S. partner.Earlier
this year, the U.S approved a $13.9 billion sale of advanced fighter
jets to Indonesia. And in Jakarta last December, Blinken signed
agreements for enhanced joint naval exercises between the U.S. and
Indonesia.China has condemned U.S. efforts to expand its outreach in the
region, accusing America of trying to build an “Asian NATO.” During a
speech in Singapore, Austin rejected that claim. "We do not seek a new
Cold War, an Asian NATO or a region split into hostile blocs,” he
said.Lolita C. Baldor, The Associated Press

1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
4
And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will
bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them
clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and
shields, all of them handling swords:
5 Persia,(IRAN,IRAQ) Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
6
Gomer,(GERMANY) and all his bands; the house of Togarmah (TURKEY) of
the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with
thee.(AFRICAN MUSLIMS,SUDAN,TUNESIA ETC)
7 Be thou prepared, and
prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto
thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
8 After many days thou shalt be
visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is
brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against
the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is
brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of
them.
9 Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a
cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with
thee.
10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that
at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think
an evil thought:
11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of
unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell
safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor
gates,
12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand
upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people
that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and
goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.
13 Sheba, and Dedan, and
the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say
unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company
to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and
goods, to take a great spoil?(OIL IS IN SPOIL-I BELIEVE THATS WHY
RUSSIA,ARAB/MUSLIMS MARCH TO ISRAEL)
14 Therefore, son of man,
prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In that day when my
people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it?
15 And
thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many
people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a
mighty army:
16 And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel,
as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I
will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I
shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.
17 Thus saith
the Lord GOD; Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old time by my
servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in those days many
years that I would bring thee against them?
18 And it shall come to
pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel,
saith the Lord GOD, that my fury shall come up in my face.
19 For in
my jealousy and in the fire (atomic bomb) of my wrath have I spoken,
Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
20
So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the
beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth,
and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my
presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places
shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.
21 And I will
call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Lord
GOD: every man’s sword shall be against his brother.
22 And I will
plead against him with pestilence (biological,chemical,nuclear) and with
blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many
people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones,
fire, and brimstone.(NUKED,THEN MIGRATING BIRDS EAT RUSSIA/ARAB/MUSLIMS

1 Therefore, thou son of man,
prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am
against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
2 And I
will turn thee back, and leave but the sixth part of thee,(300 MILIION
RUSSIA-ARAB-MUSLIMS GET NUKED BY ISRAEL) and will cause thee to come up
from the north parts, and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel:
3 And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and will cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand.
4
Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, thou,(RUSSIA) and all thy
bands,(RUSSIA SUPPORTED WITH WEAPONS-ARAB/MUSLIM COUNTRIES) and the
people that is with thee: I will give thee unto the ravenous birds of
every sort, and to the beasts of the field to be devoured.
5 Thou shalt fall upon the open field: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD.
6
And I will send a fire (ATOMIC BOMB) on Magog, and among them that
dwell carelessly in the isles: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
7
So will I make my holy name known in the midst of my people Israel; and
I will not let them pollute my holy name any more: and the heathen
shall know that I am the LORD, the Holy One in Israel.
8 Behold, it is come, and it is done, saith the Lord GOD; this is the day whereof I have spoken.
9
And they that dwell in the cities of Israel shall go forth, and shall
set on fire and burn the weapons, both the shields and the bucklers, the
bows and the arrows, and the handstaves, and the spears, and they shall
burn them with fire seven years:
10 So that they shall take no wood
out of the field, neither cut down any out of the forests; for they
shall burn the weapons with fire: and they shall spoil those that
spoiled them, and rob those that robbed them, saith the Lord GOD.
11
And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will give unto Gog a
place there of graves in Israel, the valley of the passengers on the
east of the sea: and it shall stop the noses of the passengers: and
there shall they bury Gog and all his multitude: and they shall call it
The valley of Hamongog.
12 And seven months shall the house of Israel be burying of them, that they may cleanse the land.
13
Yea, all the people of the land shall bury them; and it shall be to
them a renown the day that I shall be glorified, saith the Lord GOD.
14
And they shall sever out men of continual employment, passing through
the land to bury with the passengers those that remain upon the face of
the earth, to cleanse it: after the end of seven months shall they
search.
15 And the passengers that pass through the land, when any
seeth a man’s bone, then shall he set up a sign by it, till the buriers
have buried it in the valley of Hamongog.
16 And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah. Thus shall they cleanse the land.
17
And, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; Speak unto every
feathered fowl, and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves,
and come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do
sacrifice for you, even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel,
that ye may eat flesh, and drink blood.
18 Ye shall eat the flesh of
the mighty, and drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of rams,
of lambs, and of goats, of bullocks, all of them fatlings of Bashan.
19 And ye shall eat fat till ye be full, and drink blood till ye be drunken, of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.
20 Thus ye shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots, with mighty men, and with all men of war, saith the Lord GOD.
21
And I will set my glory among the heathen, and all the heathen shall
see my judgment that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid upon
them.
22 So the house of Israel shall know that I am the LORD their God from that day and forward.
23
And the heathen shall know that the house of Israel went into captivity
for their iniquity: because they trespassed against me, therefore hid I
my face from them, and gave them into the hand of their enemies: so
fell they all by the sword.
24 According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions have I done unto them, and hid my face from them.
25
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Now will I bring again the captivity
of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, and will be
jealous for my holy name;
26 After that they have borne their shame,
and all their trespasses whereby they have trespassed against me, when
they dwelt safely in their land, and none made them afraid.
27 When I
have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out of their
enemies’ lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations;
28
Then shall they know that I am the LORD their God, which caused them to
be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto
their own land, and have left none of them any more there.
29
Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my
spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.

Belarus President
Alexander Lukashenko said Thursday that Russia, Ukraine and the West
must all agree to halt the conflict in Ukraine to avoid the "abyss of
nuclear war."
"We must stop, reach an agreement, end this mess,
operation and war in Ukraine," Lukashenko, Russian President Vladimir
Putin's top ally, told AFP in an exclusive interview in Minsk."Let's
stop and then we will figure out how to go on living... There's no need
to go further. Further lies the abyss of nuclear war. There's no need to
go there."Lukashenko accused the West of seeking a conflict with Russia
and of provoking the Ukraine war."You have fomented the war and are
continuing it," he said."We have seen the reasons for this war," he
added."If Russia had not got ahead of you, members of NATO, you would
have organized and struck a blow against it," he said, echoing
Putin.Belarus has served as a staging ground for Russia's intervention
in Ukraine, but Lukashenko has so far avoided becoming a party to the
conflict.Analysts say that he is keenly aware of the fact that most
Belarusians do not support sending troops into Ukraine.The 67-year-old
leader, who has ruled Belarus for nearly three decades, insisted that
Kyiv authorities can end the war if they re-start talks with Moscow and
accept its demands."Everything depends on Ukraine," he said."Right now,
the peculiarity of the moment is that this war can be ended on more
acceptable terms for Ukraine."He urged Kyiv authorities to "sit down at
the negotiating table and agree that they will never threaten
Russia."Talks between Russia and Ukraine largely ground to a halt in
mid-April.Lukashenko said that Ukraine must accept the loss of regions
occupied by Russia in eastern and southern Ukraine."This is no longer
being discussed," he said. "One could have discussed this in February or
March."On Wednesday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that
peace talks with Ukraine "make no sense" and announced that Moscow's
military aims in the pro-Western country were no longer focused "only"
on the east.Lukashenko has sought to promote himself as Putin's most
faithful ally, welcoming Russian troops under the pretext of military
exercises before Moscow launched its Ukraine offensive.Despite
officially being a non-belligerent, the Belarus strongman has demanded
that his country be included in any talks and a deal to end the
conflict.Lukashenko insisted that the war could have been avoided if
Western countries had given Putin "the security guarantees" he
wanted."You, members of NATO and Americans, needed war."
Despite
Odesa strike, Lavrov tells Egypt Russian grain orders will be met ‘in
full’Russian foreign minister praises Arab leaders’ ‘balanced’ position
on war in Ukraine during trip to Cairo, claims shortages worsened by
Western sanctions on Russia
By AFP-JUL 24,22-Today, 11:44 pm 2
CAIRO,
Egypt — Russia’s top diplomat reassured Egyptian leaders on Sunday that
their orders for Russian grain would be met, as he began a tour of
African countries dependent on imports for their food supply.“We
confirmed the commitment of Russian exporters of cereal products to meet
their orders in full,” Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told a news
conference after talks with his Egyptian counterpart, Sameh Shoukry.
“President Vladimir Putin stressed this during a recent telephone call
with Egyptian President [Abdel-Fattah] el-Sisi.”Lavrov’s visit comes hot
on the heels of a landmark deal Russia and Ukraine signed on Friday
with the United Nations and Turkey aimed at relieving a global food
crisis caused by blocked Black Sea grain deliveries.Between 20 million
and 25 million tons of grain have been blocked in Ukrainian ports since
Russian troops invaded in February, as Ukraine has laid naval mines to
prevent an amphibious invasion of its coast.The deal provides for the
creation of safe corridors for grain exports from three Ukrainian ports
and also seeks to facilitate Russian grain exports by removing them from
the scope of Western sanctions.“The [UN] secretary-general [Antonio
Guterres] took responsibility for lifting these illicit restrictions,
imposed by the United States and the European Union against [Russian]
financial and supply chains,” Lavrov said.Before Russia invaded Ukraine,
the two countries accounted for 85 percent of wheat imports to Egypt,
which has been heavily impacted by what Lavrov called “the so-called
world food crisis,” in an address to the Arab League in Cairo later
Sunday.Lavrov met Arab League head Ahmed Aboul Gheit and representatives
of the 22 nations that make up the pan-Arab bloc.The United States has
sought to isolate Russia on the global stage over its invasion of
Ukraine, but many countries in the Arab world are hesitant to strain
relations with Moscow.Many, such as Egypt, have not clearly sided with
either Russia or Ukraine, leading Lavrov on Sunday to praise Arab
countries’ and the League’s “balanced, fair, responsible
position.”Firefighters put out a fire in the port after a Russian
missiles attack in Odesa, Ukraine, June 5, 2022. Russian missiles have
struck Ukraine’s Black Sea port of Odesa just hours after Moscow and
Kyiv signed deals to allow grain exports to resume from there. (Odesa
City Hall Press Office via AP)-Several member states are heavily
dependent on wheat imports from Ukraine and have been reeling from food
insecurity, which Lavrov said Sunday had been “bluntly, unconditionally”
blamed on Russia, “as if the food crisis started on the day we launched
our special military operation in Ukraine.”In addition to the
coronavirus pandemic and supply chain problems, the diplomat said the
crisis “was aggravated by the illegal Western sanctions against the
Russian Federation.”Despite a Russian strike on Ukraine’s port of Odesa
on Saturday, which Kyiv called a “spit in the face” to the freshly-inked
deal with Turkey and the UN, Lavrov lauded the agreement Sunday.He told
Arab leaders it will compel “Western countries to lift limitations and
stop preventing Russian grain from being delivered to the buyers.”After
Egypt, Russia’s top diplomat is slated to visit Uganda, Ethiopia, and
Congo.

Moscow yet to
give ok for Israeli team to fly in for talks-Israel gears up to fight,
as Russia puts screws to Jewish Agency for unclear reasons-Latest
struggle evokes Cold War memories of Russian Jews trapped behind Iron
Curtain; for now, Jerusalem striking balance between playing Moscow’s
game and warning of consequences-By Judah Ari Gross-JUL 24,22-Today,
10:34 pm 5
After initially believing Russia’s moves against the
Jewish Agency to be a relatively minor spat, Israeli officials now view
them as the makings of a potentially major diplomatic rift, and the
Jewish Agency is preparing accordingly, a senior official in the
organization said Sunday.Moscow’s reasons for attacking the
quasi-governmental organization remain unclear, as Russian officials
have yet to indicate what — if any — steps Israel could take that would
prompt them to call off its threats to shutter the group, which is
tasked with facilitating and encouraging Jewish immigration to
Israel.Earlier on Sunday, Prime Minister Yair Lapid warned Russia that
closing the Jewish Agency there would negatively affect ties between the
two countries. He has reportedly tasked the Foreign Ministry with
drawing up specific courses of action that Israel could take, should
Russia go through with its stated plans to shut down the organization’s
operations, including recalling the Israeli ambassador to Moscow, more
bellicose public statements against Russia, and stepping up Israeli
support for Ukraine.Last month, Russian authorities told the Jewish
Agency that its offices could face sanctions over alleged infringements
of local laws. Officials in the organization initially believed this to
be a low-level issue that could be resolved with negotiations and
compromise.However, as Moscow continued to escalate the situation, the
Jewish Agency reached out to the Foreign Ministry to intervene on its
behalf. The Israeli ambassador to Russia spoke about the matter with the
Russian deputy foreign minister earlier this month.“We tried to keep
things low-key and sort it out by exchanging letters with lawyers and
trying to reach a compromise,” a Jewish Agency official told The Times
of Israel on Sunday, speaking on condition of anonymity due to the
sensitivity of the issue. “Now that they took it to court, it is clear
that they they are not looking for compromise or negotiations. It is
clear that this is a political move.” This is not really about some
legal disagreements or technical procedure that was breached or even
just small-time attempt to intimidate the Jewish Agency because they are
antisemitic or oppose immigration or something-The Russian Justice
Ministry filed an appeal with a Moscow district court last week,
ordering the “dissolution” of the Jewish Agency offices in the
country.Shortly after the court filing, Lapid announced the formation of
a legal-diplomatic task force that would travel to Moscow this week to
fight on the Jewish Agency’s behalf.This delegation met on Sunday, after
which Lapid issued a clear statement not only in support of the Jewish
Agency and Russia’s Jewish population, but threatening Russia with
diplomatic repercussions if the organization is indeed shut
down.“Closing the Jewish Agency’s offices would be a grave event, which
will have consequences on [Israeli-Russian] ties,” the statement
read.According to the official from the Jewish Agency, which had
multiple representatives at Sunday’s meeting, there is a clear
understanding that, while the issue is far greater than the specific
legal claims Russia is making about the organization — pertaining to how
it stores data about prospective immigrants — for now, Israel must
treat these allegations seriously.“This is not really about some legal
disagreements or technical procedure that was breached or even just a
small-time attempt to intimidate the Jewish Agency because they are
antisemitic or oppose immigration or something,” the official said.
“This legal delegation is not going to solve anything, but we have to
play the game. There will need to be political involvement.”The
delegation was due to leave for Moscow on Sunday and Monday, but its
departure was instead pushed back indefinitely, until “it receives
Russian approval for the talks,” the Prime Minister’s Office said.But
the Jewish Agency official stressed that, while the delegation was made
up of legitimate experts in Russian law, this was largely for show.“We
are playing the legal game, while also signaling that we are not fooled
by this,” the official said.Two major, as-yet-unanswered, questions are
why Russia prompted this diplomatic fight over the Jewish Agency, and
what it will ultimately take to resolve the situation.In the past,
Moscow has been far more overt in issuing demands in such situations.
Take, for instance, the case of Naama Issachar, an Israeli woman who was
detained in Russia after a small amount of marijuana was found in her
luggage during a layover at Moscow airport.In that incident, Russian
officials quickly made it clear to Israel that Issachar would be
released if Jerusalem turned over a Russian national, Aleksey Burkov,
who had been detained in Israel and was due to be extradited to the
United States for cyber crimes.Israel ultimately did not go along with
the Russian demand and indeed extradited Burkov. Issachar was instead
pardoned after Israel gave control of the Old City of Jerusalem’s
Alexander Courtyard to the Russian Imperial Orthodox Palestine Society,
though that move has since met some legal troubles.“With Issachar, it
was just the fate of one person. The Russians wanted the release of a
Russian hacker. Then we threw in the Alexander Courtyard for good
measure. It was clear what they were demanding,” the Jewish Agency
official said.“Here it is not just one person — it is much much bigger
stakes — and they are not saying anything, they are not making any
demands,” he said.While some Israeli officials have indicated that
Russia is acting in retaliation for Jerusalem’s ongoing support of
Ukraine after Russia’s invasion of the country earlier this year, Moscow
has also regularly expressed discomfort and even opposition to Israel’s
ongoing airstrikes against Iranian targets in Syria, a country with
which Moscow has a deep alliance.The Jewish Agency official said his
organization also suspected that this may be the result of some
“internal power struggle within Russia that has nothing to do with
us.”In addition to serving as an initial step in the process of
immigrating to Israel, the Jewish Agency also maintains a number of
programs inside Russia and serves as an important conduit between the
country’s Jewish community and the wider Jewish world. Moscow’s moves
against the organization have evoked memories of the plight of Soviet
Jews, who were trapped behind the Iron Curtain during the Cold War,
barred from immigrating to Israel or freely practicing their faith.“The
Jewish Agency does very important work in Russia, and I hope it will
continue to do so. Nevertheless, it behooves us to remember that Israel
knew how to fight for immigration even when the Jewish Agency and all
Israeli diplomats were barred from Soviet Russia, just as it knew how to
defend its security interests successfully, even when all the best
Soviet weapons were delivered not to us but to our enemies,” the former
head of the Jewish Agency and former Soviet Jewish leader Natan
Sharansky wrote in a public Facebook post on Friday.“I want to finish
this post with a message to all of our Jewish brethren in Russia who are
seriously considering immigrating to Israel: I urge you not postpone
the implementation of your plans,” he said.For now, the organization is
continuing its activities in Russia as normal, but it is also readying
for the day when it will have to dramatically alter how it works, the
official said.“We will operate as usual for as long as we can… and we
are preparing ourselves for all possible scenarios,” he said.
Palestinian
suspected of planning to stab Israelis in West Bank arrested-Soldier
fires warning shot into air as suspect approaches him with knife at
Tapuah Junction; no injuries reported-By Emanuel Fabian-JUL 24,22-Today,
11:15 pm 0
A Palestinian man suspected of planning to stab
Israelis at the Tapuah Junction in the West Bank was arrested Sunday
night, the military said.According to the Israel Defense Forces, the
alleged assailant, armed with a knife, approached a soldier who was
“conducting routine security activity” in the area.The soldier fired
warning shots into the air, and the suspect was arrested, the IDF
said.The Palestinian man was taken for further questioning by the Shin
Bet security agency.Nobody was hurt in the incident.The suspected
attempted attack came as tensions remain high in the West Bank, after
Israeli security forces stepped up operations following a deadly wave of
terror attacks against Israelis earlier this year that left 19 people
dead.At least two Palestinian gunmen were killed in an Israeli military
raid early Sunday morning in the northern West Bank city of Nablus.
Another four suspects were arrested elsewhere in the West Bank
overnight, the IDF said.
Erdogan accuses Greece of undermining
Muslim minority rights-Turkish president raises concern about treatment
of Muslims who make up 1/3 of Thrace region’s population; Ankara says
Athens militarized islands in violation of Lausanne Treaty-By AP-JUL
24,22-Today, 8:11 pm 1
ISTANBUL, Turkey — Turkish President Recep
Tayyip Erdogan on Sunday criticized Greece for allegedly violating a
settlement that has governed relations between the rivals for nearly a
century.In a statement released on the 99th anniversary of the Lausanne
Treaty, Erdogan accused Athens of undermining the rights of the Muslim
minority in Greece’s Thrace region. Muslims in Thrace make up about 32
percent of the province’s population and include ethnic Turks, Roma, and
Bulgarian-speaking Pomaks.“The conditions registered in the treaty,
especially the rights of the Turkish minority, have been ignored or
deliberately eroded,” the nationalist leader said. “It is not possible
for our country to accept this situation, which is incompatible with
good neighborly relations and loyalty to the treaty.”The 1923 treaty was
signed by the new Republic of Turkey to settle disputes with the
Allies, including Greece, following World War I and the Turkish War of
Independence.It outlined the rights of the remaining Muslim minority in
Greece and Christians in Turkey, after a bitter conflict between the
countries, which was followed by a population exchange. It also set out
conditions for Greek rule of the Aegean islands that lie off Turkey’s
coast.Ankara recently complained that Greece violated the treaty by
militarizing the islands. Athens said it was acting according to
international law and was defending its territory in the face of
constant Turkish hostility.On Friday, the Turkish Foreign Ministry
condemned the closure of four Muslim minority schools in Thrace, saying
it demonstrated “discriminatory and oppressive policies” by the Greek
government.The Greek Foreign Ministry rejected the “unsubstantiated”
allegations, saying the schools were suspended because student numbers
fell below minimum requirements.NATO members Greece and Turkey have been
at loggerheads for decades over a series of issues, including disputes
over undersea exploration rights in the eastern Mediterranean and the
sovereignty of uninhabited Aegean islets. The two neighbors have come to
the brink of war three times in the past half century.Erdogan last
month broke off high-level talks with Athens.
Russia insists its
strike on Odesa port hit Ukraine military targets, not grain silo-Moscow
says missiles aimed at warship and warehouse containing US-supplied
anti-ship missiles; Ukraine’s Zelensky warns bombardment ‘destroyed the
very possibility’ of dialogue-By susie blann-JUL 24,22-Today, 3:44 pm 2
KYIV,
Ukraine (AP) — Russian defense ministry officials on Sunday insisted
that an airstrike on the port of Odesa — less than a day after Russia
and Ukraine signed an agreement on resuming grain shipments from there —
had hit only military targets.“In the seaport in the city of Odesa, on
the territory of a shipyard, sea-based high-precision long-range
missiles destroyed a docked Ukrainian warship and a warehouse with
Harpoon anti-ship missiles supplied by the US to the Kyiv regime,”
ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov said at a daily briefing.Ukrainian
President Volodymyr Zelensky said in his nightly televised address
Saturday evening that the attack on Odesa “destroyed the very
possibility” of dialogue with Russia.The Ukrainian military said on
Saturday that Moscow had attacked Odesa’s sea port with four cruise
missiles, two of which had been shot down by Ukrainian air
defense.Command spokeswoman Nataliya Humenyuk said that no grain storage
facilities were hit. Turkey’s defense minister, however, said he had
had reports from Ukrainian authorities that one missile struck a grain
silo while another landed nearby, although neither affected loading at
Odesa’s docks.It was not immediately clear how the airstrike would
affect plans to resume shipping Ukrainian grain by sea in safe corridors
out of three Ukrainian Black Sea ports: Odesa, Chernomorsk and
Yuzhny.Russia and Ukraine on Friday signed identical agreements with the
UN and Turkey in Istanbul aimed at clearing the way for the shipment of
millions of tons of desperately needed Ukrainian grain, as well as the
export of Russian grain and fertilizer. Senior UN officials voiced hopes
that the deal would end a months-long standoff brought about by the war
in Ukraine that threatened food security around the globe.The
agreement, obtained by The Associated Press, committed both Kyiv and
Moscow to refraining from strikes on the three Black Sea ports.Elsewhere
on Sunday, Ukrainian authorities reported that Russian shelling
continued to kill and injure civilians in Ukraine’s south and east.The
governor of the eastern Donetsk region, one of two which make up
Ukraine’s industrial heartland of the Donbas and a key focus of Russia’s
offensive, said that two civilians had been killed and two more had
been injured over the previous 24 hours.The UK military on Sunday
morning reported in its daily intelligence update that Russia was making
“minimal progress” in its ongoing Donbas offensive, which it said
remained small-scale and focused on the city of Bakhmut in Ukraine’s
eastern Donetsk region.The Ukrainian General Staff confirmed in its
regular update that Russia was “conducting military operations to create
conditions” for an assault on Bakhmut, while firing on surrounding
settlements and battling Ukrainian defenders for control of a nearby
thermal plant.In Ukraine’s south, regional officials said that at least
five civilians were wounded by Russian shells in the Black Sea port of
Mykolaiv on Saturday night and Sunday morning.“Also, as a result of the
scattering of munitions and their fragments, fires occurred in open
areas in the city,” said Vitaly Kim, governor of the Mykolaiv
region.Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky gestures while addressing a
press conference with Netherland’s Prime Minister, following talks in
Kyiv on July 11, 2022. (Sergei Supinsky/AFP)-In other developments, a
Washington-based think tank said Ukrainian forces are likely preparing
to launch or have launched a counteroffensive in the Kherson region.The
Institute for the Study of War quoted Kherson Oblast Administration
Adviser Serhiy Khlan as saying Ukrainian forces have seized unspecified
settlements in the region, but had called on Ukrainian civilians to
remain silent on the progress of the counteroffensive until Ukrainian
authorities release official statements.The ISW notes that open-source
information on any progress by Ukrainian troops “will likely be limited
and lag behind events.”Also, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov was
in Cairo for talks with Egyptian officials as his country seeks to break
diplomatic isolation and sanctions by the West over its invasion of
Ukraine.Lavrov landed in Cairo late Saturday, the first leg of his
Africa trip that will also include stops in Ethiopia, Uganda and Congo,
according to Russia’s state-run RT television network.

Night sky satellite light trail thrills northern
residents-Shining points in a line seen moving across sky; timing
coincides with predicted viewing opportunities for SpaceX’s chain of
mini satellites-By TOI staff-JUL 24,22-Today, 11:26 am 1
A line
of sparkling lights spotted Saturday moving silently across the sky in
the north of the country drew excitement from local residents.The Kan
public broadcaster reported the sightings were made at around 10 p.m. —
the same time that the Starlink chain of satellites was visible over
Lebanon and Turkey.Eyewitness Nofar told Channel 12 that the line had
about 50 points of light in it and moved diagonally down the sky.“It was
not a meteor, but like lights on a construction crane — but just up in
the middle of the sky,” Nofar said.The IDF said that it was not aware of
any strange events in the sky that could have caused the incident.Some
said the lights were seen across a swath of territory stretching from
Israel to Turkey, according to the report.The Starlink satellites,
launched by the SpaceX company, are intended to provide satellite
internet services to dozens of countries.Visibility in Israel and
elsewhere can be checked on the FindStarlink website.Following its first
satellite launch in February 2018, the completed network, expected to
be fully deployed in the coming months, will comprise some 1,600
satellites surrounding the Earth in a low orbit.Earlier this year,
SpaceX chief executive Elon Musk ordered that Starlink equipment be sent
to Ukraine to enable internet connections with the country following
its invasion by Russia in February.
6,000 evacuated as
‘explosive’ California blaze remains out of control-2,000 firefighters
and 17 helicopters deployed to fight fire that has burned through 14,200
acres and destroyed 10 properties; ex-VP Gore warns against US
‘inaction’ on climate-By David McNew and Michael Mathes-25 July 2022,
12:40 am 1
MIDPINES, Unites States (AFP) — A fierce California
wildfire expanded early Sunday, burning several thousand acres and
forcing evacuations, as tens of millions of Americans sweltered through
scorching heat with already record-setting temperatures due to climb
even further.More than 2,000 firefighters backed by 17 helicopters have
been deployed against the Oak Fire, which broke out Friday near Yosemite
National Park, the California Department of Forestry and Fire
Protection (CAL FIRE) said in a report.But two days after it began, the
blaze had already consumed more than 14,200 acres (5,750 hectares, 57.5
square kilometers) and remained zero percent contained, the report said,
adding that heat combined with low humidity would “hamper” efforts
Sunday.“Extreme drought conditions have led to critical fuel moisture
levels,” according to CAL FIRE’s report.Described as “explosive” by
officials, the blaze has left ashes, gutted vehicles and twisted remains
of properties in its wake, as emergency personnel worked to evacuate
residents and protect structures in its path.It has already destroyed 10
properties and damaged five others, with thousands more threatened.More
than 6,000 people have been evacuated, said Hector Vasquez, a CAL FIRE
official.“It was scary when we left because we were getting ashes on us
but we had such a visual of this billowing. It just seemed like it was
above our house and coming our way really quickly,” one woman who had to
be evacuated, Lynda Reynolds-Brown, told local news station KCRA.“We
started getting our stuff together and that’s when I went back up the
hill and looked and I’m like, ‘Oh my God.’ It was coming fast,” her
husband Aubrey Brown told the station.California Governor Gavin Newsom
on Saturday declared a state of emergency in Mariposa County, citing
“conditions of extreme peril to the safety of persons and property.”In
recent years, California and other parts of the western United States
have been ravaged by huge and fast-moving wildfires, driven by years of
drought and a warming climate.Gore blasts ‘inaction’ Evidence of global
warming could be seen elsewhere in the country, as 85 million Americans
in more than a dozen states were under a weekend heat advisory.The
crisis prompted former vice president Al Gore, a tireless climate
advocate, to issue stark warnings Sunday about “inaction” by US
lawmakers.Asked whether he believes US President Joe Biden should
declare a climate emergency, as Biden has said he soon might, Gore was
blunt.“Mother Nature has already declared it a global emergency,” he
told ABC News talk show “This Week.”And “it’s due to get much, much
worse, and quickly,” he said on NBC.But he also suggested that recent
crises, including deadly heat waves in Europe, could serve as a wake-up
call for members of Congress who have so far refused to embrace efforts
to combat climate change.“I think these extreme events that are getting
steadily worse and more severe are really beginning to change minds,” he
said.The central and northeast US regions face the brunt of the ongoing
extreme temperatures, which were not expected to peak until Sunday and
have sent public health officials scrambling.“Numerous record highs are
forecast to be tied and/or broken today in the Northeast as highs make a
run at the century mark and heat indices range between 105-110 degrees
(40.5-43.3 Celsius),” the National Weather Service said Sunday.A heat
emergency is in effect for cities up and down the northeast coast, from
Boston to Philadelphia to Washington.Not even the usually cool Pacific
Northwest will escape the far-reaching heat, with the region expected to
face several days in the 90s (mid-30s in Celsius) next week.Cities have
been forced to open cooling stations and increase outreach to at-risk
communities such as the homeless and those without access to air
conditioning.Various regions of the globe have been hit by extreme heat
waves in recent months, such as Western Europe in July and India from
March to April, incidents that scientists say are an unmistakable sign
of a warming climate.
Serious to extreme’: Israel to be hit by
heatwave with high humidity in coming days-Israel Meteorological Service
warns of ‘serious to extreme heatwaves in most parts of the country’ as
the week goes on-By TOI staff-JUL 24,22-Today, 12:43 pm 3
Temperatures
will start gradually rising on Sunday, the Israel Meteorological
Service said, as the country braces for a heatwave later this
week.Sunday will see partially cloudy weather as temperatures remain
close to average in most areas of the country, but they will slowly
begin to rise in the coming days and continue to do so as the week goes
on.Monday will see higher temperatures throughout the country, and
meteorologists say people should expect “serious to extreme heatwaves in
most parts of the country” on Tuesday through Thursday.The report also
warned of high levels of humidity along the country’s coastline
throughout the week.Sunday’s temperatures are forecast to hit 29°C
(84.2°F) in Tel Aviv, 30°C (86°F) in Jerusalem, 28°C (82.4°F) in Haifa,
33°C (91.4°F) in Kiryat Shmona, 35°C (95°F) in Beersheba and 39°C
(102.2°F) in Eilat, the IMS said.On Thursday, temperatures are expected
to hit 31°C (87.8°F) in Tel Aviv, 34°C (93.2°F) in Jerusalem, 29°C
(84.2°F) in Haifa, 37°C (98.6°F) in Kiryat Shmona, 38°C (100.4°F) in
Beersheba and 41°C (102.2°F) in Eilat, according to the IMS.The
temperature rise will be accompanied by high levels of humidity, meaning
that it will feel far hotter and could pose a health risk to
some.Israel has so far experienced relatively average summer
temperatures this year until now.Meanwhile, Europe has sweltered through
a heatwave that sparked fires in the continent’s south, and caused the
mercury to rise above 40°C (104°F) in the United Kingdom for the first
time on record.In the United States, a fast-moving brush fire near
Yosemite National Park exploded in size Saturday into one of
California’s largest wildfires of the year, prompting evacuation orders
for thousands of people and shutting off power to more than 2,000 homes
and businesses.Climate scientists have warned that such extreme weather
events will become more frequent due to global warming.According to a
recent report by the Haaretz newspaper, the IMS is predicting that the
country will suffer heatwaves lasting 7-10 days starting from 2030, with
temperatures reaching 50°C (122°F) in some parts of the country.By
2060, the average number of annual heatwaves will rise from its current
four to six, with the average summer temperature jumping from 33.5°C
(92.3°F) to 35°C (95°F), according to current estimates.Daily highs
during heatwaves will reach the mid-40s and sometimes 50°C (122°F) in
the Jordan Valley in the country’s north by 2050, while the Negev in
Israel’s south will also experience days reaching 40°C (104°F) to 45°C
(113°F).The IMS has also warned that Israel will have 8-13 fewer days of
rainfall in the coming years, according to a report by Channel
12.Israel experienced its hottest day in history on September 4, 2020,
with temperatures in the southern coastal resort city of Eilat recorded
at an unprecedented 48.9°C (120°F).Agencies contributed to this report.
Call for max working temperature cap after EU heatwave deaths-Paris, July 24 (AFP) Jul 24, 2022
Trade
unions called Monday for the European Commission to impose maximum
temperature limits for outdoor workers, after three people died while on
shift in Madrid during last week's withering heatwave.While a handful
of member states have legislation limiting working hours in excessive
heat, the thresholds vary and many nations have no nationwide heat
limits.According to research by the polling agency Eurofound, 23 percent
of all workers across the EU were being exposed to high temperatures a
quarter of the time. That figure rises to 36 percent in agriculture and
industry and to 38 percent for construction workers.Previous research
has linked high temperatures to a number of chronic conditions and an
elevated risk of workplace injury."Workers are on the frontline of the
climate crisis every day and they need protections to match the
ever-increasing danger from extreme temperatures," said Claes-Mikael
Stahl, deputy secretary general of the European Trade Union
Confederation.The ETUC said that most EU nations have no maximum
temperature legislation for workplaces, although Belgium, Hungary and
Latvia all have some curbs on activity.In France, where there are
currently no working temperature limits, 12 workers died due to heat
exposure in 2020 alone, the union said.- 'Can't ignore the danger'
-Spain, where three workers died in extreme heat last week, does have
temperature limits in place, but only for certain professions.A
60-year-old street cleaner on a one-month contract died in Madrid on
Saturday, after he collapsed in the street from heatstroke while working
the previous day.At the time temperatures in Madrid neared 40C.A
56-year-old warehouse worker in a Madrid suburb also died on Saturday
after suffering heatstroke while on the job.Security forces on Thursday
announced the death of a worker due to heat in Paracuellos de Jarama, on
the outskirts of the capital.Last week, the city reached a deal with
unions to restrict manual street cleaning work to below 39C.With global
average temperatures more than 1.1C warmer than the pre-Industrial era,
Europe is being hit with more and more record-breaking hot spells.Global
heating will continue to make deadly heatwaves more frequent and
intense with ever higher levels of atmospheric carbon pollution,
scientists say.The UN's climate science panel this year warned that tens
of millions more people would be subjected to extreme heat days under
2C of warming; countries' climate plans have Earth on course to warm by
2.7C."Heatwaves can be fatal for people working unprotected from the
sun, as we've already witnessed in Spain this summer," said
Stahl."Workers are on the frontline of the climate crisis every day and
they need protections to match the ever-increasing danger from extreme
temperatures."He said the EU needed continent-wide legislation on
maximum working temperatures, since "the weather doesn't respect
national borders"."Politicians can't continue to ignore the danger to
our most vulnerable workers from the comfort of their airconditioned
offices," he said.
The Canadian Press-Milley: China more aggressive, dangerous to US, allies-Sun, July 24, 2022 at 2:43 a.m.
JAKARTA,
Indonesia (AP) — The Chinese military has become significantly more
aggressive and dangerous over the past five years, the top U.S. military
officer said during a trip to the Indo-Pacific that included a stop
Sunday in Indonesia.Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of
Staff, said the number of intercepts by Chinese aircraft and ships in
the Pacific region with U.S. and other partner forces has increased
significantly over that time, and the number of unsafe interactions has
risen by similar proportions.“The message is the Chinese military, in
the air and at sea, have become significantly more and noticeably more
aggressive in this particular region,” said Milley, who recently asked
his staff to compile details about interactions between China and the
U.S. and others in the region.His comments came as the U.S. redoubles
its efforts to strengthen its relationships with Pacific nations as a
counterbalance to China, which is trying to expand its presence and
influence in the region. The Biden administration considers China its
“pacing threat" and America's primary long-term security
challenge.Milley's trip to the region is sharply focused on the China
threat. He will attend a meeting of Indo-Pacific chiefs of defense this
week in Sydney, Australia, where key topics will be China's escalating
military growth and the need to maintain a free, open and peaceful
Pacific.U.S. military officials have also raised alarms about the
possibility that China could invade Taiwan, the democratic, self-ruled
island that Beijing views as a breakaway province. China has stepped up
its military provocations against Taiwan as it looks to intimidate it
into unifying with the communist mainland.U.S. military officials have
said Beijing wants to be ready to make a move on the island by 2027. The
U.S. remains Taiwan’s chief ally and supplier of defense weapons. U.S.
law requires the government to treat all threats to the island as
matters of “grave concern,” but remains ambiguous on whether the U.S.
military would defend Taiwan if it were attacked by China.China’s top
military officer, Gen. Li Zuocheng told Milley in a July 7 call that
Beijing had “no room for compromise” on issues such as Taiwan. He said
he told Milley that the U.S. must “cease U.S.-Taiwan military collusion
and avoid impacting China-U.S. ties and stability in the Taiwan
Strait."The U.S. and others are also worried that a recent security
agreement that Beijing signed in April with the Solomon Islands could
lead to the establishment of a Chinese naval base in the South Pacific.
The U.S. and Australia have told the Solomon Islands that hosting a
Chinese military base would not be tolerated.“This is an area in which
China is trying to do outreach for their own purposes. And again, this
is concerning because China is not doing it just for benign reasons,”
Milley told reporters traveling with him. “They’re trying to expand
their influence throughout the region. And that has potential
consequences that are not necessarily favorable to our allies and
partners in the region."Milley's visit to Indonesia is the first by a
U.S. joint chiefs chairman since Adm. Mike Mullen in 2008. But U.S.
leaders have crisscrossed the Asia-Pacific in recent months, including
high-profile visits by Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Secretary of
State Antony Blinken.The Biden administration has been taking steps to
expand its military and security relationship with Indo-Pacific nations
as part of a campaign to build a stronger network of alliances in
China’s backyard and counter China's growing influence.Milley declined
to provide specific numbers of unsafe Chinese interactions with U.S. and
allied aircraft and ships. But Austin, in a speech in Singapore last
month, referred to an “alarming increase" in the number of unsafe
intercepts by People's Liberation Army aircraft and vessels.Austin
specifically pointed to a February incident where a PLA navy ship
directed a laser at an Australian P-8 maritime patrol aircraft. But
there have been a number of others. A surveillance aircraft controlled
by Canada was recently intercepted by a Chinese fighter in international
airspace. And U.S. ships are routinely dogged by Chinese aircraft and
vessels during transits, particularly around manmade islands claimed by
Beijing in the South China Sea.Milley said there have been Chinese
intercepts with Japan, Canada, Australia, Philippines and Vietnam. They
all, he said, have seen a “statistically significant” increase in
intercepts, and the number of unsafe incidents has increased by an
“equal proportion.”Milley, who will meet with Gen. Andika Perkasa, chief
of the Indonesian National Defence Forces, said Pacific nations like
Indonesia want the U.S. military involved and engaged in the region.“We
want to work with them to develop interoperability and modernize our
militaries collectively," Milley said, in order to ensure they can "meet
whatever challenge that China poses.”He said Indonesia is strategically
critical to the region, and has long been a key U.S. partner.Earlier
this year, the U.S approved a $13.9 billion sale of advanced fighter
jets to Indonesia. And in Jakarta last December, Blinken signed
agreements for enhanced joint naval exercises between the U.S. and
Indonesia.China has condemned U.S. efforts to expand its outreach in the
region, accusing America of trying to build an “Asian NATO.” During a
speech in Singapore, Austin rejected that claim. "We do not seek a new
Cold War, an Asian NATO or a region split into hostile blocs,” he
said.Lolita C. Baldor, The Associated Press.
