With a constitutional change, the Chinese State Party is working to strengthen the authority of General Secretary Xi. The former President Hu shall leave the hall shortly before the vote. A video clip shows that the 79-year-old is reluctant to give up his seat. State media reported that Hugh felt unwell.
Former Chinese President Hu Jintao is escorted out of the hall at the closing ceremony of the Communist Party Congress in Beijing. Shortly before 2,300 delegates voted on an amendment to the party constitution that would bolster the power of Hu’s successor, Xi Jinping, the 79-year-old had to clear his place on the podium, accompanied by the mentor.
Chinese state media justified it with his 79-year-old health problems. However, he seemed reluctant to leave his seat next to Shi. When a guide grabbed his arm, he first repelled the man, and also a second attempt by the man to lift him from his seat with both hands under his armpits. At the same time, he snatched papers from the podium, which Shi grabbed tightly. Finally, with difficulty, the guide and his colleague were able to persuade Huo to stand up.
After one minute of exchanging words with Xi, the former chief was finally taken out of the room. He patted Prime Minister Lee briefly on the shoulder while most of his party colleagues stared straight ahead. Shortly thereafter, the delegates unanimously decided to devote a „central role” to Xi Jinping within the Communist Party in the Constitutional Charter. Xi is expected to get a third five-year term as general secretary of the Communist Party of China on Sunday.
A report on Twitter by China’s Xinhua News Agency said that he was unwell and was subsequently taken out of the room. The team looking after the health of the former president moved him to a side room so he could rest there. She said her performance is „much better” now. The former president insisted on attending the last session even though he is still recovering.
The week-long party congress in Beijing’s Great Hall of the People was held largely behind closed doors, but international journalists were accepted into the hall for the closing ceremony shortly before the accident. Alex White, a British expert on China, commented on the incident on Twitter: „Whether it is intentional or whether it is he who is hurting, the effect is the same. A complete humiliation of the generation of leaders before Xi.”

Experts around the world are concerned: This is the fourth time a person in the United States has been infected with the bird flu virus. After Texas and Michigan, a dairy farm in Colorado is now the source of the infection. The health authority is assessing the risk.
For the fourth time in just a few months, a person in the United States has contracted bird flu after coming into contact with infected dairy cows — this time in Colorado. As in previous cases, the woman worked on a dairy farm and was exposed to cows that had been found to have the H5N1 virus, the CDC said. In April, the first case of bird flu was reported in a dairy farm worker in Texas, followed by two more cases in Michigan.
The Colorado patient had only mild symptoms of bird flu in her eyes and was given an antiviral medication. She has since recovered, they said. However, the CDC reiterated calls for precautions for farm workers who handle infected cows. In the Colorado case, “further genetic analysis” is underway to identify potential variants of the virus that “could change the agency’s risk assessment” for the population.
The H5N1 avian influenza virus has increasingly spread to mammals in recent months, including dairy cattle in the United States. Numerous cattle herds have been infected in several US states, and the outbreak was first detected in March.
Drosten: All experts are concerned
Several people have already been infected, raising fears of an impending pandemic. Given the spread of H5N1 in the United States, the chief virologist at Berlin’s Charité hospital, Christian Drosten, has described the bird flu virus as a potential cause of an upcoming pandemic. The pathogen has recently appeared in dairy herds in the United States and „has even appeared in dairy products on the market,” Drosten said at the weekend. „There has never been anything like this before, such a large spread in cows – all the experts are worried.”
However, the virologist explained that there is no better view of the data to make a more accurate assessment. “We don’t yet know how often people who interact with these infected cows are getting infected.” It is desirable that decisive action be taken now in the United States.

New air defense ammunition
US releases needed military aid to Ukraine

The opening of a new front line in the Kharkiv region by the Russian side will only put Ukraine in trouble for a short time. However, Kiev still lacks ammunition. And now the next batch comes from the United States.
The Ukrainian army is receiving urgently needed supplies. The United States will soon provide Ukraine with additional military aid worth about $2.3 billion (about €2.14 billion) to defend against Russia’s aggressive war. This was announced by US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin during a visit to Washington by his Ukrainian counterpart Rustam Umzhirov.
Austin explained that the package approved by US President Joe Biden includes “additional anti-aircraft missiles, anti-tank weapons, and other critical munitions from US stockpiles.” The “realignment of some foreign military supplies” will also allow the United States to provide munitions for Patriot missiles and other air defense systems “on an accelerated time frame.”
The aid is one of several that have already been made available since the US Congress released new funds worth about $61 billion (€56.2 billion) to Kiev in late April. According to the Pentagon, the US has already provided more than $50 billion in military aid to Kiev since Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine began more than two years ago.
Kyiv prepares to import electricity from the European Union
Ukraine has managed to stabilize the situation on the nearly 1,000-kilometer-long front line after resuming US arms shipments despite continued Russian pressure.
The Russian opening of a new front line in the Kharkiv region has only briefly put the Ukrainian side in trouble. According to media reports, when it comes to artillery deployment, there are now only three Russian shells for every Ukrainian shell instead of the previous five or more.
Given the ongoing Russian attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, Kyiv is preparing to import electricity from the European Union. Following Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal’s report on the current state of the country’s energy supply, a decision on electricity imports is now necessary, President Volodymyr Zelensky said in his evening video message.
“We are now fully committed to the volume of imports agreed with the EU, and I am grateful to all our neighbors for this help,” Zelensky said. “We are doing everything we can to increase imports and this should be a European solution.” His government is preparing the relevant agreements.
Zelensky called on the Ministry of Energy to inform the population on a daily basis about the state of work in the energy sector, the current deficit and the country’s measures to eliminate this deficit.
Lukashenko warns Kyiv
In recent months, the Russian military has begun targeting and destroying Ukraine’s energy infrastructure. The aim of these attacks is also to weaken the population’s will to resist.
Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko said in a speech on the occasion of the upcoming Republic Day on June 3 in Minsk that NATO does not want to end the war in neighboring Ukraine and also intends to drag Belarus into it. “I guarantee you that we will not allow clashes on the border with Ukraine, they will not happen,” he said.
At the same time, Lukashenko warned Kiev to refrain from provocations on the border. “I would like to ask Ukrainians not to play with fire,” Lukashenko said. Minsk will not allow any aggravation or escalation. Just a few days ago, Belarus increased its border forces on the border with Ukraine due to alleged provocations.
Kiev rejected this, saying that Ukraine was simply fortifying its defensive positions on the border. At the beginning of Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine more than two years ago, Belarus allowed Russian military personnel to deploy from its territory.
