And it will be at least until January 7, 2023, two years after his social media account was suspended, that Trump can reappear on Facebook and Instagram. So with this ban, Mr. Trump will not be able to post anything to influence Facebook and Instagram for the next 2 years. The Facebook account of former US President Donald Trump.

If Facebook finds that there is still a threat to public safety, it will continue to suspend Trump’s entire account. In addition, after the ban is lifted, if there are continued violations, Mr. Trump will face a series of other penalties from Facebook. Former US President Donald Trump.

According to the Reuters , OkCupid will join many major online dating platforms such as Tinder, Match and Bumble to participate in the US government’s vaccination incentive program. This is the latest effort by the Biden administration to attract young people to get the Covid-19 vaccine, thereby achieving at least one shot of the vaccine for 70% of Americans by July 4. A user opens the Tinder dating app. Photo: Reuters. “(People who have been vaccinated) will have their own certification badge, have a filter to find people who have been vaccinated, and can use many exclusive functions for free,” Mr. Slavitt said. Shar Dubey, CEO of Match Group, which owns dating apps like Tinder and OkCupid, said she feels “honored to work with the White House to increase vaccination rates across America”. “(Immunization) will help people meet face-to-face and interact in meaningful ways. It also makes dating safer for everyone and anywhere,” added Ms. Dubey. Last week, the White House also teamed up with two ride-hailing apps, Lyft and Uber, to provide free rides to people getting vaccinated against Covid-19. According to data from Johns Hopkins University, the US currently has more than 33 million cases and nearly 590,000 deaths from Covid-19. The country has fully vaccinated nearly 39% of the population, or about 128 million people.

According to a recent report by the US Senate Intelligence Committee, the number of suspected cases of Havana syndrome worldwide is increasing. According to the New York Times, there have been more than 130 US officials with this neurological syndrome worldwide in the past 5 years, and at least one person has had symptoms in the past two weeks. The figures have raised concerns within the Biden administration, especially as the cause and cure for Havana’s syndrome remains a mystery. Havana syndrome first appeared in US officials five years ago. “Unusual health incident” “ How can you fight something you don’t know well? “, a US intelligence official expressed concern about the mysterious Havana syndrome. Under pressure from lawmakers and victims of Havana syndrome, the Biden administration has stepped up efforts to “identify the cause of these unusual health incidents,” according to a statement from a spokesperson at the office. Office of the Director of the National Intelligence Service (CIA) on May 18. However, the reality shows that it is difficult to pinpoint the exact causes and symptoms of Havana syndrome. Victims of the syndrome report a multitude of different symptoms. This has scientists, engineers and medical professionals fiercely arguing about whether all cases of Havana stem from a single cause. CNN’s source said the US government has found a blood test that can detect some signs of Havana syndrome. The test was applied to intelligence officers with a recently discovered neurological syndrome, and at least one of the victims was a White House official. But testing alone is not enough information to make a definite diagnosis of this strange disease. Many Havana syndrome research institutions are developing a type of sensor device that can detect abnormalities to identify victims. However, this tool only helps detect the syndrome and cannot protect or improve the condition of the sufferer. The Biden administration has stepped up efforts to determine the cause of Havana syndrome. (Photo: CNN) Foreign secret weapon? In March, the US National Academy of Sciences reported finding “directed radiofrequency energy” most likely to be responsible for a series of strange neurological symptoms of Havana syndrome. This is called the “microwave theory”. However, US officials note that this theory has not been confirmed, some scholars have openly rejected the theory. CNN’s source said that the content of the microwave theory is purely based on external symptoms. This theory is not convincing because Havana syndrome victims have many and different symptoms. In 2014, the US National Security Agency revealed that intelligence on cases of officials with Havana syndrome since 2012 indicated it could be caused by “a high-powered microwave weapon capable of can produce a variety of effects on the human body, including damage to the nervous system.” But the National Security Agency has not confirmed the existence of this dangerous weapon, or information about the country that developed it. The US National Security Agency revealed that Havana syndrome could be caused by “a type of microwave weapon”. (Photo: CNN) Many US officials question how such a weapon could be so charged and so precise that it only damages the target’s brain. And equally important is if Havana syndrome is a man-made attack, who or what organization is behind this conspiracy? According to the US official, there is some evidence that Russia is likely to be the culprit because it is one of the few countries that has researched and developed a tool that is believed to be the weapon that causes Havana syndrome. Some researchers on Havana Syndrome say that if the cause of the disease is advanced foreign equipment, the purpose of its creation is to gather information from US officials. “ I don’t know if they happened to find a mechanism that would allow it (Havana syndrome) to be used as a weapon system, or are they just trying to collect (data) that could be detrimental to the country. America “, a CNN source said. To date, the investigation into this mysterious neurological syndrome is still ongoing, there is currently no evidence to prove that Havana syndrome is created by forces hostile to the United States, or the symptoms and treatment for this disease. those infected.

Americans call the unexplained neurological problems experienced by US diplomats in Cuba in 2016, including dizziness, ringing in the ears, headaches and nausea – sometimes combined by a ” the mysterious but more serious noise…, is the “Havana Syndrome”. Notably, in 2018, some US employees working in a few countries other than Cuba such as China (in Guangzhou) also reported experiencing similar symptoms – dizziness, lightheadedness, fatigue, or fatigue. headaches and blurred vision, memory loss and difficulty concentrating; some even face severe vision and hearing loss; children in the home had nosebleeds – prompting the Donald Trump administration to allege that diplomats were attacked with a secret weapon. In the late 2010s, US and Canadian diplomats experienced health problems of unknown cause; Source: stellariasacademy.online Mosquito repellent may be the cause of a mysterious illness that affects about 40 US and Canadian diplomats in Cuba, according to Canadian government research. Scientists from Dalhousie University and the Nova Scotia Health Service studied Canadian victims and also the brain of a pet dog after death. The results showed that these people lacked cholinesterase – an enzyme necessary for the functioning of the nervous system. Some pesticides work by inhibiting this substance. During the 2016-2018 period, Cuba stepped up the spraying of disinfectants to prevent the spread of Zika. That was also the time when diplomats had unusual symptoms. It is not clear if Cubans will be affected by the disinfectant, but the Canadian team of scientists is planning to work with Cuban scientists to further investigate the issue. Returning from Guangzhou, American diplomats were only allowed to take unpaid leave instead of receiving treatment and rehabilitation. The Trump administration also did not launch an independent investigation into the cause of the incident. American diplomats who had to be evacuated from Guangzhou are still fighting for not receiving the benefits they deserve compared to victims of the “Havana Syndrome”; US diplomat Mark Lenzi filed a lawsuit against the State Department. Meanwhile, some medical experts and US officials believe that this is just a psychological disease that is formed in a stressful working environment abroad. According to the New York Times, the University of Pennsylvania Brain Injury Rehabilitation Center has received 44 American diplomats returning from Cuba and 15 returning from China. Here, treating doctors declined to comment in detail, but rejected the theory of a psychological illness. According to them, these patients all experienced brain injuries due to external influences. Symptoms Similar to “Havana Syndrome” The Pentagon and other agencies that are investigating the incidents have not yet discovered or released details, but the suspicion of an attack that happened too close to the White House is of interest, especially for these reasons. familiar – terrorism. In early April 2021, the Senate and House Armed Services Committees were briefed by Defense officials, possibly including an incident that happened near the White House. The latest symptoms similar to “Havana Syndrome” have been reported near the White House, for some; Source: news.com.au The incident happened on the Ellipse – the large oval lawn south of the White House – where the “energy attack” took place that made a National Security Council official fall ill, according to several current officials. current and former US official with CNN. A female White House official also reported a similar incident in 2019, when she was walking her dog in suburban Virginia, according to a GQ report from 2020. All people who have experienced symptoms These witnesses all report their experiences to the CIA and the foreign personnel department of the State Department, to quickly open investigations into possible “Havana syndrome” attacks. A study by the National Academy of Sciences in late 2020 found that the illness that American officials contracted in Cuba, still known as “Havana Syndrome,” could be the result of microwave radiation. The document also says that the Soviet Union studied the effects of radio frequency energy 50 years ago – meaning any country, group or entity with similar technology could be behind the attack. power station near the White House and elsewhere. Microwaves are a type of electromagnetic radiation. The human eye can only see a small fraction of electromagnetic radiation – as visual light. But today, microwaves are in common everyday use – including telephone and television communications. Industrial applications include potato processing, plywood drying and curing, bread and donut making, etc. Sonic weapons may be the cause of the incident at the White House A directed-energy weapon that uses microwaves can quickly heat up parts of the body – especially those with less blood flow, like the ears, testicles, or brain. But more likely, the microwave during the “Havana Syndrome” event – and possibly the event near the White House – was the use of sonic weapons, or long-range acoustic devices. Is it true that “Havana Syndrome” is caused by a mysterious weapon?; Source: stellariasacademy.online Jai Galliott, director of defense and technology assessment and a former Australian naval officer at the University of New South Wales, said in an ABC report that sonic weapons can cause lung and liver damage. if set to the appropriate decibel (unit of sound measurement). Galliott adds, it has been shown that sustained low-frequency exposure over a long period of time can have other effects on the brain, and potentially brain tissue. And these weapons are real. The technology has existed since the 1970s and entered public discussion in the 1980s. But because the technology is still in the near-monopoly of the eyes of high-ranking government officials – like the Ministry Defense (DoD) or Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) – it is not easy to determine exactly how the weapons and symptoms of the White House event are causally related. “It’s not particularly complicated technology, it’s more about how they use it [và] effects they used to use [điều đó còn khó hiểu hơn]”; “Definitely Russia has that technology, the US has that technology, and also China,” Galliott explained to ABC. While it’s too early to say which devices, if any, caused the debilitating symptoms experienced by US officials near the White House and elsewhere in the previous months, we could be on the way. into a new era of discreet yet effective attacks on high-ranking officials – leaving no trace of the actors to blame. It is possible that the energy attacks were carried out from a low-flying drone, or a nearby operator, although this is only speculation. Canadian diplomats said their government had more detailed information on brain injuries caused by “Havana Syndrome”, but gave no further details.

However, the price of gasoline sold at pumping stations is higher and the possibility of fuel supply shortage is inevitable. After all, it is only temporary and its effects will be fleeting. But there’s a bigger problem: this has to do with America’s energy infrastructure, exactly how secure is its cybersecurity infrastructure? Experts soon said: The team that carried out this attack consisted of seasoned hackers. Later, a ransomware group called DarkSide claimed responsibility for the attack, and the FBI also pointed to this group as the culprit. Here’s what DarkSide said in its statement: “We are apolitical, we do not engage in geopolitics, do not need to tie us to a defined government, and seek our motives. . Our goal is to make money, and not create any other problems for society. Starting today, we’re introducing censorship and vetting of each company that our partners want to encrypt to avoid future social consequences.” The statement was clearly intended to address allegations made that Russia was behind the attack, but even the White House was careful not to point the finger at Moscow. President Biden said there was no evidence that they were involved in the attack. That’s related to geopolitical motives, but the statement also suggests that DarkSide and its partners won’t stop, even if they don’t intentionally cause problems. “Colonial may be at risk of leaking consignor confidential data,” said Vicki Knott, CEO of CruxOCM, a provider of control room operations services to the oil and gas industry. https://tinhtexaydung.petrotimes.vn

With each passing day, Harris wishes to move into this building. ” Located on the grounds of the Naval Observatory, Number One Observatory Circle mansion does not resemble her Condo in Washington or Blair House and is even more different from the White House. But at least, it’s less cumbersome procedures, less staff, and more freedom. “The vice president’s residence is like a calm place amid political storms in Washington,” said Elizabeth Haenle. At the end of the day, Mrs. Harris can go for a walk, enjoy the landscape of the country and can catch deer feeding somewhere. Despite the fact, this house is not far from the administrative center of Washington ”. Even Mr. Joe Biden, who used to stay at Number One Observatory Circle as vice president, said: “In the mansion for the vice president, you can walk, swim in the private pool, ride a bike. and exercise. All are located on the premises of the building. This is far from the White House – just a gilded cage. In addition, the vice president is allowed to arbitrarily make any changes at the Number One Observatory Circle mansion. Many people think that Harris and her husband, who love cooking, will always want the space to do it. Inside the Blair House apartment, where US Vice President Kamala Harris and his wife are staying.

Although Blair House is quite comfortable and luxurious with a gym, hair salon and full-time professional staff, Harris and her husband said: “This place is not feeling as comfortable as at home “.

“When I spoke to President Putin, I expressed confidence that direct and personal communication between the two of us is essential to a more effective relationship. He agrees on that point.” – he said.

He added: “So I proposed that we meet face to face this summer in Europe for a summit to address a wide range of issues that both our countries are facing. face.”

According to him, “our teams are discussing this possibility right now.”

“And if that summit takes place and I believe it will happen, the US and Russia can launch a dialogue of strategic stability to pursue cooperation in arms control,” Biden stressed. and security ”.

“We can tackle important global challenges that require Russia and the US to work together, including curbing nuclear threats from Iran and North Korea, ending the global pandemic. and deal with the existing climate change crisis “- declared by US President.

In the same speech, Mr. Biden said he warned Russian President Vladimir Putin of the sanctions in a phone call he called a “straightforward, respectful conversation” on April 13.

“I have made it clear to President Putin that we can take more action, but I choose not to. I chose to respond accordingly. The US does not want to start a cycle of escalation and conflict with Russia. We want a stable, predictable relationship, ”Mr. Biden said at the White House on April 15.

The sanctions “send a signal that the United States will impose measures strategically and have an economic impact on Russia if it continues or escalates destabilizing international actions,” the White House said. know in a statement. “Our goal is not to escalate, to impose sanctions on what we feel is an unacceptable action by the Russian government,” White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said. before the press on April 15.

The White House said on April 15 that recent sanctions actions were also prompted by Moscow “targeting dissidents or journalists” and undermining “security in countries and regions.” important to US national security ”, referring to the recent Russian alleged poisoning of opposition leader Alexey Navalny and military consolidation along the Ukrainian border.

Mr. Biden has strained his relationship with Putin personally by agreeing with the view that Putin is a “killer”. The US President did not apologize and also refused to hold talks with the Russian President when Putin proposed a dialogue.

For a while, Mr. Biden continued to send signals that the US would punish Russia for its interference in the US’s internal affairs, including cyber attacks and election interference. At the same time, the US leader suggests direct dialogue with the Russian President.

For the past two days, Mr. Biden has repeatedly heated up American media about what he sees as a measure of pressure on Moscow, forcing it to pay the price for what it has done with America, while leaving the door open. the door to directly negotiate with Mr. Putin.

Analysts said that Mr. Biden’s actions in imposing new sanctions against the possibility of a live conference with Putin, will give Mr. Biden’s negotiating advantage.

Expert Lev Sokolschik, scientist of the Center for Integrated Research on European and International Affairs at Russia’s HSE State Research University, said that the US is continuing its policy of restraining Russia on all fronts. Important aspects include economic, military, political and using pressure in areas of interest to win the US over Russia.

The US has followed the roadmap: Announcing the summit proposal, negotiating and then imposing sanctions on dialogue with Russia with its strengths, the Russian expert said.

However, given the ever-confrontational nature of the Russia-US relationship, the actions of the US would immediately receive a response from Russia. The Russian side is also considering a number of retaliation sanctions and could be announced in the near future.

US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan previously called the sanctions “adequate measures to protect US interests from harmful Russian actions including cyber intrusion and election interference”.

The recently announced measures include sanctions on six Russian companies that support domestic cyber operations, along with sanctions on 32 individuals and organizations allegedly trying. to interfere in last year’s presidential election.

The White House said 10 Russian diplomats were deported, including representatives of Russian intelligence agencies.

“What is currently being considered – possibly sanctions – will not help the meeting,” said Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov.

Although at the time, most Americans supported President Bush’s decision to go to war, doubts remained as to how the war would play out and how long it could last.

Bush, then 55 years old, took office in less than nine months. On the evening of October 11, 2001, he tried to reassure the American people that the government was aware of the lessons from the past and that they were determined not to let the US bogged down in an irrational war in Asia.

“We have learned some very important lessons in Vietnam,” Mr. Bush affirmed. “This is another war that requires a different approach and a completely different spirit.”

While he did not guarantee how long the war would last, Bush made a sure promise that America would win.

“This battle will last until the al-Qaeda terrorist organization is brought to justice,” he announced. two years, but we will win this war. “

But from the very beginning, the US government did not seem to have determined the goal of achieving “victory”. On Wednesday, current US President Joe Biden announced that he would withdraw all military forces in Afghanistan by September 11.

This decision still does not answer the ever-standing question that his three predecessors had hoped or envisioned a outcome for the war that they always claimed America would win.

In the beginning, the goal of this war was to destroy al-Qaeda and make sure that the terrorist group could not use Afghanistan as a base to launch any other terrorist attack against the United States. In just 6 months, that goal was achieved. The al-Qaeda chiefs were either destroyed, captured or fled Afghanistan.

However, instead of declaring an end to the war, Bush at that time set out new “missions” for this war. In April 2002, he announced new political and military goals.

He announced that the United States will help its allies in Afghanistan build an increasingly modernized country with a stable democracy, a powerful military force, and good healthcare facilities. and a public education system for children.

“We understand that peace can only be true when the Afghan people have the potential to achieve their own wishes,” he said in a speech at the Virginia Military Academy.

Although setting out very noble and respectable goals, former President Bush did not set specific standards to achieve them and did not give any information about the US military. How long will you have to stay there. He replied generally, “We will stay until the mission is completed.”

Like former President Bush, the two successors, Barack Obama and Donald Trump, both put themselves in invisible bonds vowing to win in Afghanistan, raising expectations for a victory. The military side of this war.

General Dan McNeill, who served two terms as commander of the US military in Afghanistan during the Bush administration, said the end was always “murky, dark.”

Mr. McNeill then shared that: “Some people have thought of Jeffersonian democracy (in the thought of late President Thomas Jefferson), but that will not happen in Afghanistan”.

In a secret report sent to senior Pentagon officials in October 2003, former US Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld also expressed skepticism: “Whether we are winning or losing in Global war on terror? “.

By 2006, as the Taliban rebelled and escalated their attacks, the suspicions became more and more common.

On August 29, 2006, former US ambassador Ronald Neumann in Afghanistan sent a warning to Washington, in which he affirmed: “We will not be able to win in Afghanistan”.

However, in public, the US government continued to declare the opposite.

“We are winning,” General Karl Eikenberry, former commander of US forces in Afghanistan, told ABC News just two weeks after Neumann issued the warning. When asked if the US would lose the war, Eikenberry bluntly replied: “Victory is not an option in the war in Afghanistan”.

Two years later, the US battlefield commanders in Afghanistan had to ask the Pentagon to send reinforcements because they were out of position as the Taliban had increased the number of troops from 7,000 to 11,000 fighters. American generals were very difficult to mobilize more troops, but still continuously declared a victory “invisible”.

In September 2008, US Army General Jeffrey Schloesser, former commander of US forces in eastern Afghanistan, after repeatedly asked by reporters about whether he thought that US troops were still winning. , commented: “I would say that we will not lose any war, at any cost. This is just a victory that takes more time, I guess. ”

By the time Mr. Obama took office in 2009, US military officials admitted they were facing a terrible uprising. Obama then announced an expansion strategy to send thousands more soldiers to Afghanistan and spend tens of billions of dollars to rebuild the Kabul government.

“For terrorists against America, my consistent message is: America will defeat all hostile forces,” former President Obama announced in March 2009.

Yet again, no one in the Obama administration can tell what the outcome of that victory will be.

“How do we know when this is over? And how will it end? ”Democratic Sen. James Webb questioned Michèle Flournoy, former Deputy Secretary of Defense under President Obama and General David Petraeus at a congressional hearing on. April 2009.

Obama administration officials gradually became contradictory in subsequent steps. On the one hand, they are beginning to admit that a military victory is quite unlikely and the only way to end the conflict is for the warring parties in Afghanistan to reach a “political solution”.

On the other hand, when the US number reached 100,000, generals under the Obama administration continued their attacks on the Taliban instead of using diplomatic means.

In public, some Obama administration officials began to dodge when questioned about the war.

At a congressional testimony in June 2011, former Defense Secretary Robert Gates was asked whether the US is winning or losing in Afghanistan, replying: “I believe we are succeeding in the war. strategy of the President “.

A week later, at another hearing, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton did not directly comment, but only said: “I do not think it is a matter of winning or losing.”

Throughout his term, the Obama administration has planned to train and equip the Afghan security force of 352,000 soldiers and paramilitary police with the belief that these allied forces will overwhelm the Taliban. thanks to the support of the US.

Former President Obama once pledged to withdraw all US military forces from Afghanistan by the end of his second term. But he withdrew and ordered about 8,400 soldiers to stay, seeing that the Afghan security forces were incapable of defending against Taliban attacks.

By the time Donald Trump took office in 2017, things were pretty bleak. The Taliban have grown stronger in Obama’s eight years in power, adding about 60,000 combat troops. The Afghan army and police are suffering so much damage that the Kabul government has to keep the casualties a secret to avoid weakening morale.

Former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis admitted to the US Senate Committee on Armed Services in June 2017: “Right now, we are not having the upper hand in Afghanistan.”

By August 2017, former President Donald Trump announced a new strategy for the war. In a speech at the Fort Myer base, he pledged to end the 16-year conflict in Afghanistan and vowed to help the US regain full victory.

“Our army will fight to win,” Trump announced. “From now on, victory will be clearly defined: attack our enemies, destroy ISIS, take down al-Qaeda, stop the Taliban from taking Afghanistan and stop mass terrorist attacks. “.

The war in Afghanistan under Trump is heating up with the number of US troops reaching 14,000. The Washington administration also ordered a series of drastic airstrikes, with the largest number of bombs and missiles since the outbreak of the war.

According to the strategy outlined by former President Donald Trump, the US military is simply trying to weaken the Taliban to gain political leverage for the peace talks. In February 2020, the Trump administration reached an agreement with the Taliban, paving the way for the gradual withdrawal of all US troops from the West Asian country.

On April 14, 2021, President Joe Biden officially announced plans to withdraw all US military forces from Afghanistan from May 1 and end on September 11.

This will be the end of the promises of a “vague” victory and end the war that lasted for two decades, spanning four presidents and is the longest war in American history.
