Trump's success in a second term will hinge on bringing in people committed to his agenda, top appointees from his first term say. Trump and his allies have big plans for a second term — and still-fresh memories of a drawn-out four-year battle against a hostile administrative state. "They have to be resolute with their commitment to the president's vision," a top Trump official said of those who could find themselves tapped for plum roles. "However, none of these groups or individuals speak for President Trump or his campaign. "The starting point for a second Trump term will be the last year of his first term.

Trump, who reached a trade agreement with Beijing in 2019 that later expired, has not mentioned any potential deal with China during his campaign for the 2024 nomination. Two Japanese foreign ministry officials said they fear that Trump may be prepared to weaken U.S. support for nearby Taiwan in pursuit of a deal with China. A Trump aide told Reuters that no recent meetings have taken place between Trump and Japanese officials. "If he is going to cut a deal with China, Japan needs to try and get ahead of the curve and understand its potential role to support its interests in both the U.S. and in China," said Machida. Robert O'Brien, Trump's former national security adviser, also has connections with Japanese officials, two of the sources said.

Despite high-profile losses, Russia's navy has been largely untouched by the war in Ukraine. Russian submarines, especially Yasen-class cruise-missile subs, are a top concern for NATO. A Russian defense industry source told state media outlet Tass in mid-2022 that Moscow was considering adding two more subs to the nine Yasen-class subs it had planned to build.

A Boeing 737 MAX-10 lands over the Spirit AeroSystems logo during a flying display at the 54th International Paris Air Show at Le Bourget Airport near Paris, France, June 22, 2023. Shanahan, who has served on the company's board since November 2021, will become interim CEO effective immediately, Spirit announced Monday. Spirit said its board will conduct a search to identify a new CEO, while Gentile will stay on as a consultant for three months. Gentile was named Spirit's CEO in August 2016, months after he joined the company as its chief operating officer. Over a 31-year career at Boeing, Shanahan was known as "Mr. Fix-It" for his ability to turn around poorly-performing programs.

WASHINGTON, Feb 7 (Reuters) - China declined a request for a phone call between U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Chinese Defense Minister Wei Fenghe after Washington brought down a Chinese spy balloon, a Pentagon spokesperson said on Tuesday. The Pentagon submitted the request for a secure call on Saturday after the balloon came down, Brigadier General Pat Ryder said in a statement. "Unfortunately, the PRC (China) has declined our request. China has said it was a weather balloon that had blown off course into U.S. airspace and accused the United States of overreacting. Relations between China and the United States have been tense, with friction between the world's two largest economies over everything from Taiwan and China's human rights record to its military activity in the South China Sea.

Departamentul de Justiție a declarat joi că nu va exclude urmărirea acuzațiilor împotriva președintelui Trump pentru posibilul său rol în incitarea gloatei care a mărșăluit către clădirea Capitoliului, potrivit The New York Times, transmite digi24.ro. „Ne uităm la toți actorii, nu numai la persoanele care au intrat în clădire”, a declarat reporterilor Michael Sherwin, procurorul statului Washington. „Ne uităm la toți actorii”, a spus acesta. Mai mulți oficiali au demisionat și chiar și unii parlamentari republicani au spus că Trump a mers prea departe. Procurorii Departamentului de Justiție și Departamentul de Poliție Metropolitană din Washington lucrează non-stop pentru identificarea și arestarea suspecților.

☆ Trump ar putea fi pus sub acuzare; „Analizează posibilitatea de a se autograţia”

Nu este clar dacă Donald Trump a evocat această posibilitate după ce a fost acuzat că şi-ar fi instigat simpatizanţii să intre cu forţa în sediul Congresului. Donald Trump a exprimat preocupare că Departamentul Justiţiei ar putea lansa proceduri împotriva apropiaţilor săi în timpul mandatului preşedintelui Joseph Biden. Donald Trump a fost vizat de o investigaţie a procurorului special Robert Mueller, care a identificat potenţiale cazuri de obstrucţionare a justiţiei, dar a evitat să indice dacă ar fi vorba de vreo încălcare a legii. În 2018, Donald Trump a fost vizat de acuzaţii ale procurorilor din New York privind finanţarea ilegală a campaniei electorale. Procurorul Michael Sherwin a explicat că verifică dacă cineva a jucat un „rol auxiliar” în evenimentele violente produse miercuri seară.
