2…………> Anti-Trump Boys: BRICK Bloc

 

In his latest counter-attack against ever-expanding bitter trade war with the Trump administration, Chinese President Xi Jinping has arrived in Africa on a four-nation visit seeking deeper military and economic ties, pushing new arms sales, promoting the Belt and Road initiative in several African countries, and expanding influence in both Francophone Africa and in Atlantic Ocean Ports.


China is already Africa’s largest trading partner, and it opened its first military base on the continent last year in the Horn of Africa nation of Djibouti, which this month launched a China-backed free trade zone it calls the largest in Africa.
 
 
 
 

 

3…………> Russia Fear: Helsinki Tunnels

 

As President  Trump met with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin for a special summit last week in the Finnish capital Helsinki, the 20-vehicle motorcades of the world leaders rumbled through the heavily guarded streets,
beneath which lies nearly 500 separate underground facilities and 200 miles of tunnels that snake their way throughout the city — one of the most elaborate underground systems in the world.

Despite the use of the areas are for public purposes, they have been constructed for a dual use — to serve as shelters for 750,000 people, more than the entire population of the city above, a defense against the very powerful people that were meeting in the palace above ground.

4…………> Tariffs War: Crank It Up 

 

US President Donald Trump says he is ready to impose tariffs on all $US500 billion ($673.7 billion) of imported goods from China, threatening to escalate a clash over trade policy that has unnerved financial markets.

“We’re down a tremendous amount,” Mr. Trump said in an interview about trade imbalances with China on CNBC. “I’m ready to go to 500.”

His comments worried investors already grappling with the impact of the falling US dollar fell against major currencies on Mr. Trump’s threat to impose more import tariffs and his repetition of complaints about rising interest rates and the strength of the US dollar.

@realDonaldTrump

….The United States should not be penalized because we are doing so well. Tightening now hurts all that we have done. The U.S. should be allowed to recapture what was lost due to illegal currency manipulation and BAD Trade Deals. Debt coming due & we are raising rates – Really?

2…………> Recovery Sites: US Air Force

QUANG NGAI PROVINCE, Vietnam (AFNS) — The day Army Sgt. 1st Class Tommy Murphy died is still engrained into his daughter’s mind.

It was April 7, 2001, and Tycoria Johnson was just 9 years old. On that Saturday, Murphy, along with six other American service members and nine Vietnamese counterparts, departed on an MI-17 helicopter to investigate a potential recovery site.
They were part of a Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency mission in search of the remains of fallen service members from the Vietnam War.
Her father was a team sergeant, she said, who supervised and did much of the planning for the team.

But as the weather worsened, the helicopter veered off course and collided with a mountain hidden by clouds in central Vietnam. No one survived.

Johnson, now a senior airman based in Japan, recently volunteered for a joint mission with DPAA, where her father once worked as a mortuary affairs specialist.

 

“He would talk about his missions a lot,” she said, recalling the videos he would show her of people digging at excavation sites. “I knew that he enjoyed it and I think he would be surprised that I actually signed up to do it.”

On this #MemorialDay, watch and listen as members of the #USNavy Ceremonial Guard use poetry in motion and words to share the meaning behind today’s holiday.

5…………> Applied Global Warming: Oman

The cyclone Mekunu with wind gusts of 125 mi/h dumped three years’ worth of rainfall in a single day and leaving 13 people dead in the Gulf country of Oman and neighbouring Yemen, deluging a major city leaving eight people are still missing. 

 

The “extremely severe” cyclone left holiday destinations with empty tourist beaches, littered with debris and foam from the churning Arabian Sea.


The Port of Salalah remained closed, its cranes secured against the pounding rain and winds.
