BREAKING
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.
Sheikh Qassem: The government’s latest decision [on the disarmament of the Resistance] is non-charter-based, and if the government continues down this path, it is not faithful to Lebanon’s sovereignty.

The Chinese Foreign Ministry confirmed on Tuesday that Elon Musk met with Foreign Minister Qin Gang in Beijing, as the Tesla CEO kicks off his first visit to China in more than three years.

China is the world's largest market for electric vehicles, and Tesla indicated in April that it will construct a second enormous facility in Shanghai.

Qin told Musk that China was "committed to creating a better market-oriented, rule-of-law-based and internationalized business environment" for foreign companies, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said on its website.

In response, Musk stressed that "Tesla opposes 'decoupling and breaking chains', and is willing to continue to expand its business in China," as per the Ministry.

Musk's relations with China caught the attention of US President Joe Biden, who indicated in November that the executive's relationships with other governments were "worthy" of inquiry.

Beijing pointed out that Musk and Qin touched on China-US relations, with the latter indicating the two nations should "apply the brakes in a timely manner to avoid dangerous driving."

The battery factory announced in April would be Tesla's second in Shanghai, following the Gigafactory, which opened in 2019.

State-run Chinese news agency Xinhua specified that the new factory, which will have an initial capacity of 10,000 Megapack units per year, is expected to "start production in the second quarter of 2024."

Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson, Mao Ning, affirmed on Tuesday that Beijing welcomed visits by international executives "to better understand China and promote mutually beneficial cooperation."
