Quick Glance: US Sending New Patriot Missiles to Ukraine

As part of a massive $6 billion additional aid package, the U.S. will provide Ukraine with additional Patriot missiles for its air defense systems, announced Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on Friday.

Discussing the need for Patriots, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy participated in the Ukraine Defense Contact Group meeting on Friday morning, where about 50 countries virtually gathered in a Pentagon-led session.

Included in the new funding, the largest tranche of USAI aid sent so far, are the High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) as well as Switchblade and Puma drones, counter-drone systems, and artillery.

Months of deadlock among bitterly divided members of Congress over the funding led to House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., having to form a bipartisan coalition to pass the bill.

China warns Antony Blinken US must choose between ‘co-operation or confrontation’

ft.com/content/ef9d2f6f-3ef6-4249-af0c-649583e0ee43

Quick Glance: China Emphasizes Stronger Collaboration with US Amid Challenges

China stresses the importance of enhanced cooperation with the United States despite facing significant obstacles.

Xi emphasized to the US Secretary of State on Friday that the two superpowers 'should be partners rather than rivals' and should support each other's success, as reported by the state news agency Xinhua.

During the five and a half hours of discussions, Blinken raised the issue of 'Chinese support to the Russian defence industrial base', and contentious topics such as Taiwan and the South China Sea were also addressed.

Recent years have seen tumultuous China-US relations, exacerbated by factors including a trade war, a visit by then-House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi to Taiwan in 2022, and a dispute over the US downing of a suspected Chinese surveillance balloon last year.

Opinion | This Whole King Trump Thing Is Getting Awfully Literal: The former president’s claim that he has absolute immunity for criminal acts taken in office as ...

nytimes.com/2024/04/26/opinion/trump-immunity-supreme-court.html

Quick Glance: Trump's Disregard for Democratic Principles

Donald Trump's claim of absolute immunity for criminal acts as president is an assault on common sense and a perversion of the fundamental principle of American democracy.

The Supreme Court's decision to take the case may delay the former president's trial and deprive the public of the right to know if he attempted to undermine the sacred process of presidential succession.

The Supreme Court's direct intervention in the 2024 presidential election deprives voters of critical information and could lead to a constitutional crisis if Trump is re-elected and convicted.

The notion that the president is above the law and can pardon himself is a radical contempt for republican government, revealing Trump's vision of unchecked royal power.
