NEW CZECH PRESIDENT: QUICK INTRO Czechia elected @general_pavel as new President. 5 yr term starts on March 8. In 2018, retired from active duty as 4-star army general after leading Czech army & NATO Military Committee. The most internationally successful Czech soldier ever had

👏👏👏

Worth noting: in the same week @SecScottBessent says the 🇺🇸–🇹🇼 relationship is “unchanged,” POTUS signs the Taiwan Assurance Implementation Act and green-lights $1B in arms for Taipei. Beijing’s leverage-through-trade gambit isn’t working. My latest in @nytopinion for @FDD 👇

Nástupce českého národního dopravce by mohl koupit polský národní dopravce.

Od fandů fašistických stran zaznívá, že nová vláda konečně finančně zadusí nebo jinak umlčí hlasy varující před Ruskem, jako jsem já. Vůbec. Na české vládě nejsme vůbec finačně závislí. Za poslední roky tvoří projekty s českým státem mezi 1-2 % rozpočtu Bezpečnostního centra

My friend ⁦@YamagamiShingo⁩ supported me publicly when I was a victim of a foreign interference attack while my own government was silent. Once more the silence is shamefully deafening

In a dangerous and divided world, Canada and Europe are elevating our defence partnership. That means more access to new equipment for our Armed Forces, more investment in Canada, and massive opportunities for Canadian workers and businesses.

"Counterintelligence officers from the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), together with UK intelligence agencies, have exposed a British national named Ross David Cutmore who, on instructions from Russian intelligence, conducted espionage and sabotage activities on Ukrainian

Communist Chinese companies like Shein and Temu flood our markets with illegal, counterfeit junk. I’m urging @AGPamBondi to take action against their US-based warehouses.

🙀Wow, the CCP just declared the San Francisco Peace Treaty “illegal and invalid.” Is the CCP asking for Taiwan to be returned to Japan? https://t.co/KmAXMha3dX

⚡️⚡️⚡️BREAKING: Romania's coalition government approves decree allowing it to seize control of sanctioned firms' local assets, including Russian oil giant Lukoil's 320 gas stations, major refinery, and Black Sea exploration rights amid energy security concerns. #MakeRussiaPay

Taiwanese are rushing to registering their nationality as “Taiwan, Japan” due to the PRC’s declaration of the Treaty of San Francisco of 1951 as “illegal and invalid”. 😂

Hopes that the West can avoid war in two theaters should be treated with caution. Russia and China are already in a military alliance fighting the war in Europe. Both countries will fight together if there is a war in the Indo-Pacific. My op-ed in @FP. https://t.co/fHC86jdSSO

Pelosi. Baerbock. Takaichi. Three women who did more than any male leader to force the free world to take the threat of the Chinese Communist Party more seriously. Taiwan is safer because of them. A short 🧵 /1

Vztahy mezi českými pro-ruskými fašisty a slovenskými pro-ruskými fašisty jsou na nejlepší úrovni. Mají stejného pána, ideologii i úroveň chování. Společně nenávidí Ukrajince, za to že brání svou zemi. Společně fandí a pomáhají ruským vrahům, aby povraždili co nejvíce

#BREAKING 🇨🇳 mega-embassy decision delayed AGAIN. This time to 20th January.

Respectfully, @GeoffStooke, I’m not arguing against strategic ambiguity on formal independence. I’m arguing that ambiguity about responses to sustained coercion invites more of it. Deterrence rests on some things being crystal clear: blockades and energy squeezes won’t be

My new @nytopinion essay is out today. From my @FDD perch, I argue that Beijing’s furious overreaction to one sentence in Tokyo isn’t a sign of confidence – it’s a sign of anxiety about a closing window on #Taiwan. 👇 https://t.co/3fATeBdmxD

My team at @ASPI_CTS has just published a new report showing how China is using LLMs to surveil and censor its population. Read this great write-up of the report by @NorthropKatrina at @washingtonpost:

Today, ED notified institutions of higher education of a new foreign funding reporting portal, set to launch on January 2, 2026. The portal will allow schools to more securely and efficiently disclosure their foreign gifts and contracts, as required by law.

A major win for transparency. Kudos to @Linda_McMahon and the Department of Education for launching a modernized portal for foreign-funding disclosures. After years of neglect, this is the accountability boost universities need to guard against foreign influence and protect
