“Hate Speech, Demolitions Of Homes…” U.S Lectures India On Alleged Discrimination Of Minorities
The US State Department has released its 2023 religious freedom report, covering over 200 countries.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken expressed concern over the increase in hate speech, anti-conversion laws, and the demolition of homes and places of worship for minority groups in India.
The report also mentions efforts to protect religious freedom globally.
During the Lok Sabha poll campaigns, accusations of hate speech surfaced against Prime Minister Narendra Modi, which were denied by the BJP.
The report cites increased attacks on minority groups and challenges in protecting their rights.
India has rejected the report, calling it biased and based on misinformation, yet emphasizes the importance of its partnership with the US and continued dialogue on these issues.
The U.S. State Department has approved a massive $6.75 billion arms sale to Israel, including precision bombs, guidance kits, and Hellfire missiles, just as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu meets with Trump in Washington. This comes amid a fragile ceasefire in Gaza and growing global criticism of Trump’s push to relocate Palestinians and reshape the region. With deadly 2,000-pound bombs back in Israel’s arsenal after Biden had previously halted their delivery, is the ceasefire doomed?

The Panama Canal Authority has firmly denied recent U.S. claims that Panama has agreed to waive fees for U.S. government vessels transiting the canal. In a sharp rebuttal to the U.S. Department of State’s announcement, Panama clarified that no such changes have been made to the canal’s tolls or policies. The controversy arose after the U.S. claimed that Panama’s decision would save millions in fees, but the Panama Canal Authority stressed that it had not adjusted its policies and is prepared to discuss the issue with U.S. officials.

North Korea has conducted a ballistic missile test coinciding with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken's visit to South Korea for high-level diplomatic talks. The missile, believed to be an intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM), traveled over 1,100 kilometers before landing in the sea. South Korea's military condemned the act as a "clear provocation," while the timing raises questions about Pyongyang's intent to influence the summit discussions. As tensions rise, South Korea, the U.S., and Japan are coordinating their response. Is this a strategic warning from North Korea, or a sign of further escalation to come?
