BREAKING
Russian Ministry of Defense: 37 Ukrainian drones destroyed in 4 hours over regions of Russia and the Black Sea.
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.

NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said, on Friday, that the alliance's foreign ministers will meet in Bucharest this week on November 29-30 to discuss ways to address the alliance's challenges posed by China.

“NATO Foreign Ministers will also address ways to strengthen our resilience and the challenges posed by China. China is not an adversary, but it is stepping up military modernization, increasing its presence from the Arctic to the Western Balkans, from space to cyberspace, and seeking to control critical infrastructure of NATO allies,” Stoltenberg told journalists.

It is worth noting that Stoltenberg said Monday that Beijing was seeking to tighten its grip over critical infrastructure, supply chains, and the crucial industrial sectors of Western countries.

Meanwhile, Stoltenberg underlined that "authoritarian states" must be prevented from exploiting the West's weaknesses to conduct "subversive" activities.

Germany and China

This comes a day after German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said his country would not be making the same mistake with China as it did with Russia, stressing that Berlin was already bringing variety to its trade.

The German Chancellor visited China earlier this month, marking the first visit by an EU leader to China since the COVID-19 breakout of 2019, making it also the first time Scholz visits China since he assumed office.

The Chancellor also stated that the importance of his recent visit to China was that both countries condemned the use of nuclear weapons, adding that Germany placed the new $100 billion euro budget into its defense industry after it saw it was vital that the country must build a strong military stock after the Ukraine war.
