βΉ The Comprehensive Strategic Partnership with #Vietnam is a major relationship upgrade for the #US
It is the culmination of a relentless push by #Washington over the last two years to strengthen ties with #Vietnam, which it sees as key to counter the influence of #China in #Asia
It is also no small feat
The partnership with #Washington is the highest level of diplomatic ties extended by #Vietnam

#OnThisDay 24 years ago (11th August 1999), there was a total #solar #eclipse crossing Europe, from #UK, #France, #Belgium, #Luxembourg, #Germany, #Austria, #Hungary, #Serbia, #Romania, #Bulgaria, and then following towards #Asia ending over #India. This #TotalSolarEclipse of the 2nd millennium was one of the most viewed eclipse of human history.
Do you remember it ? Where were you ? Did you manage to watch it ? How was it ?

#EU #Asia #AI #AIRegulation #AIAct: "The European Union is lobbying Asian countries to follow its lead on artificial intelligence in adopting new rules for tech firms that include disclosure of copyrighted and AI-generated content, according to senior officials from the EU and Asia.
The EU and its member states have dispatched officials for talks on governing the use of AI with at least 10 Asian countries including India, Japan, South Korea, Singapore and the Philippines, they said.
The bloc aims for its proposed AI Act to become a global benchmark on the booming technology the way its data protection laws have helped shape global privacy standards.
However, the effort to convince Asian governments of the need for stringent new rules is being met with a lukewarm reception, seven people close to the discussions told Reuters.
Many countries favour a "wait and see" approach or are leaning towards a more flexible regulatory regime.
The officials asked not be named as the discussions, whose extent has not been previously reported, remained confidential." https://www.reuters.com/technology/eus-ai-lobbying-blitz-gets-lukewarm-response-asia-officials-2023-07-17/

By manufacturing the conditions conducive for Food Crisis 2.0, #Russia stands to wield significant leverage over #Africa and #Asia countries, given their heavy dependence on Russian and #Ukraine commodities. This, in turn, serves to exert additional pressure on the West to acquiesce to #Russia's demands.
