U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken concluded a long-anticipated visit to China yesterday.
He also met Chinese President Xi Jinpingin the last leg of his visit after two days of talks with other senior officials.
His meeting with the Chinese President was only confirmed by the U.S. State Department shortly before it took place.
The visit was an attempt to repair the deteriorating relationship between the two countries, which Blinken had described as "one of the most consequential in the world." Antony Blinken is the first U.S. Secretary of State to visit China since 2018… and he is also the highest-ranking U.S. official to visit China since President Joe Biden took office.
Blinken's trip had aimed to built on previous meetings between the officials of the two nations.
In May, US national security adviser Jake Sullivan had met China's top diplomat, Wang Yi, in Austria.
That was followed up by a visit from top Chinese commerce officials to Washington, D.C.
But the progress, at best, was mixed.
Earlier this month, China's defense chief Li Shangfu had rejected a meeting request from U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin because the U.S. had sanctioned Li in 2018 for procuring Russian-made weapons for the Chinese military.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken warned that Iran could produce fissile material for an atomic bomb within weeks, though it hasn't taken steps to assemble a weapon. Speaking at the Aspen Security Forum, Blinken expressed pessimism about reform in Iran despite recent elections, as Supreme Leader Khamenei remains in control. He criticized Trump's withdrawal from the Iran nuclear deal.

US Water System May Be , Vulnerable to Cyberattack, by China, Russia and Iran.
CNBC reports that the United States
water system has been the target of a series
of cyberattacks over the past few years. .
In response, the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) has been forced to issue an alert warning
that 70% of water systems do not comply
with the Safe Drinking Water Act.
According to the EPA, some have “alarming
cybersecurity vulnerabilities,” including
unchanged default passwords and former
employees who retain access to vital systems.
In February, the FBI issued a warning to
Congress that Chinese hackers have embedded
themselves into the U.S. cyber infrastructure. .
Those hackers have targeted water treatment
plants, the electrical grid, transportation
systems and other vital infrastructure.

Stuart Madnick, an MIT professor of engineering

The U.S. has expanded permission for Ukraine to use American-made weapons against targets in Russia, not limited to the Kharkiv region. This doesn't represent a policy change, as Biden previously allowed strikes near the border. However, long-range attacks deep into Russia remain prohibited. U.S. officials confirm this aligns with National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan's statement about Ukraine's right to defend against cross-border attacks.
