Quick Glance: Beijing Half Marathon under Controversy Investigation

Organisers are probing the Beijing half marathon following claims that three African athletes purposefully slowed down to let China's He Jie cross the finish line first.

He completed the race in 1 hour, 3 minutes, and 44 seconds, surpassing Kenya's Robert Keter and Willy Mnangat, and Ethiopia's Dejene Hailu, who all tied for second, a second behind the leader.

While an investigation is ongoing, none of the involved runners have issued a statement regarding the incident, although users on the Chinese social media platform Weibo have discussed the race and criticized the conclusion.

The Beijing Sports Bureau, responsible for sports in the city, stated that an investigation is in progress and the results will be disclosed once available.

Quick Glance: EU Parliament Approves Comprehensive Reforms to Migration Policy

The EU Parliament has approved significant measures to reform migration policy, aiming to enhance handling irregular migration.

The reforms aim to distribute the burden on countries that historically hosted the most asylum seekers, particularly in southern EU nations.

Kishida urges the US to continue playing a crucial role in international affairs, especially in the face of threats posed by China, Russia, and North Korea.

Despite support for Kishida's remarks championing a free and open Indo-Pacific, some conservative Republicans remained seated during his call for support for Ukraine's fight against Russia.

Kishida and President Joe Biden unveiled a list of initiatives to deepen their military cooperation and jointly condemned China's 'dangerous and escalatory' actions in the region.

China tried to meddle but Canadians decided the last two elections, says PM Trudeau

reuters.com/world/americas/china-tried-meddle-canadians-decided-last-two-elections-says-pm-trudeau-2024-04-10/

Quick Glance: Alleged Chinese Interference in Canadian Elections: Trudeau Confirms Independence

Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau reported to an official inquiry that China attempted to intervene in the last two Canadian elections, but the outcomes were unaffected, and it was deemed 'improbable' that Beijing favored a specific party.

Under pressure from opposition lawmakers dissatisfied with media reports on China's potential involvement in the elections, Trudeau established the commission.

Erin O'Toole, who led the main opposition Conservative party during the 2021 campaign, estimated that Chinese interventions may have cost his party up to nine seats but did not alter the election's course. Trudeau's Liberal Party emerged victorious in both instances.

Canada's domestic intelligence agency informed the commission of China's 'clandestine and deceptive' interference in both elections, marking the most substantial evidence thus far of suspected Chinese meddling in Canadian politics.

Quick Glance: US-China Conflict: The Role of the Party

The US House of Representatives established a special panel to counter Beijing's growing global influence. Committee Chair Mike Gallagher emphasized the need to differentiate between the CCP and the Chinese people.

Tensions could stem from China's rise as a superpower or the political direction of the CCP under Xi Jinping. Experts discuss China's historical phases and Xi's role in the current crisis.

Past periods under the KMT and Deng Xiaoping serve as points of comparison. Western concern over China was previously not ideologically driven, but has evolved over time due to political and economic developments.

China's increasing seclusion and the leadership's self-assurance under Xi have led to tensions. The US government aims for a balanced relationship but warns against destabilizing actions. The future of US-China relations remains uncertain.

Quick Glance: Spain's Sanchez Urges Recognition of Palestinian State

Prime minister pushes for recognition of a Palestinian state, says such a 'just' move would be in European Union's interest.

Sanchez calls Israel's 'disproportionate response' in the war on Gaza a regional and global threat, emphasizing that the recognition of a Palestinian state is in Europe's 'geopolitical interests'.

He has long advocated for the EU to recognize Palestine, resisted by Israel and its allies, and is also pressing for a permanent ceasefire in Gaza and humanitarian aid.

Sanchez also demands the release of captives seized by Hamas and other armed groups during their October 7 attacks inside Israel, condemning Israel's 'absolutely disproportionate response' as a threat to destabilize the Middle East and the world.
