Now Trump is ready to talk with Iran without “pre-conditions”

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]US President Donlad Trump has said on Monday he would be willing to meet Iran’s leader “without preconditions” to discuss how to improve ties. However, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, within hours, set conditions before any dialogue with Iran.

According to Reuters, while addressing media persons in White House on Monday along with Italian PM Giuseppe Conte, Trump said, “If they want to meet, we’ll meet.” He further said, “I’d meet anybody. I believe in meetings, especially in cases where war is at stake.” He was responding to a question if he was willing to meet with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani.

Observers believe that Trump has lately realized his mistakes by threatening Iran. On Tuesday last, while addressing Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) national convention in Missouri, Trump was quoted saying, “Iran is not the same country anymore, that I can say” and expressed his readiness to make a “real deal” with the country over its nuclear program.

Trump’s statement came after Iran’s tit-for-tat reactions and “mother of all wars” remarks from President Hassan Rouhani.

Trump claimed, “I do believe that they will probably end up wanting to meet. And I am ready to meet any time they want to. And I don’t do that from strength or from weakness. I think it’s an appropriate thing to do.”

“It’s good for the country, good for them, good for us and good for the world. No preconditions. If they want to meet, I’ll meet,” said the US president.

Responding to US President’s  statement Iranian President’s Hassan Rouhani’s advisor Hamid Aboutalebi said on Tuesday that any talks with the Washington  had to start with reducing hostility and a return to the nuclear deal.

“Respect for the great nation of Iran, reduction in hostilities, US returning to the nuclear deal… That will open the rocky path of the moment,” wrote Hamid Aboutalebi in Persian language on Twitter.

In May this year, Pompoe had set twelve conditions for talks with Iran, which were out rightly dismissed by Tehran.

Press TV says that Trump’s latest stance towards Tehran runs counter to his recent threats against Iran and pulling Washington out of multilateral 2015 nuclear deal, known as JCPOA “despite having the support of almost all US allies”.

Earlier in May this year, President Donald Trump had pulled out US from multilateral Iran-nuclear deal, signed by five permanent members of UNSC plus Germany known as P5+1 and announced to re-impose full sanctions against Tehran in two stages in August and November this year.

Earlier last week, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, while addressing Islamic Republic Guards Corps (IRGC) in Tehran, said that “Trump should learn well that peace with Iran is the mother of all peace and war with Iran is mother of all wars.”

On 22 July, Donald Trump, was very aggressive while responding to Rouhani’s remarks.[/vc_column_text][vc_raw_html]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[/vc_raw_html][vc_column_text]On July 23, Iran’s foreign minister Javad Zarif posted a response on his twitter account.[/vc_column_text][vc_raw_html]JTNDYmxvY2txdW90ZSUyMGNsYXNzJTNEJTIydHdpdHRlci10d2VldCUyMiUyMGRhdGEtbGFuZyUzRCUyMmVuJTIyJTNFJTNDcCUyMGxhbmclM0QlMjJlbiUyMiUyMGRpciUzRCUyMmx0ciUyMiUzRUNPTE9SJTIwVVMlMjBVTklNUFJFU1NFRCUzQSUyMFRoZSUyMHdvcmxkJTIwaGVhcmQlMjBldmVuJTIwaGFyc2hlciUyMGJsdXN0ZXIlMjBhJTIwZmV3JTIwbW9udGhzJTIwYWdvLiUyMEFuZCUyMElyYW5pYW5zJTIwaGF2ZSUyMGhlYXJkJTIwdGhlbSUyMCVFMiU4MCU5NGFsYmVpdCUyMG1vcmUlMjBjaXZpbGl6ZWQlMjBvbmVzJUUyJTgwJTk0Zm9yJTIwNDAlMjB5cnMuJTIwV2UlRTIlODAlOTl2ZSUyMGJlZW4lMjBhcm91bmQlMjBmb3IlMjBtaWxsZW5uaWElMjAlMjZhbXAlM0IlMjBzZWVuJTIwZmFsbCUyMG9mJTIwZW1waXJlcyUyQyUyMGluY2wlMjBvdXIlMjBvd24lMkMlMjB3aGljaCUyMGxhc3RlZCUyMG1vcmUlMjB0aGFuJTIwdGhlJTIwbGlmZSUyMG9mJTIwc29tZSUyMGNvdW50cmllcy4lMjBCRSUyMENBVVRJT1VTJTIxJTNDJTJGcCUzRSUyNm1kYXNoJTNCJTIwSmF2YWQlMjBaYXJpZiUyMCUyOCU0MEpaYXJpZiUyOSUyMCUzQ2ElMjBocmVmJTNEJTIyaHR0cHMlM0ElMkYlMkZ0d2l0dGVyLmNvbSUyRkpaYXJpZiUyRnN0YXR1cyUyRjEwMjE0NzExOTYyNDI3MzUxMDQlM0ZyZWZfc3JjJTNEdHdzcmMlMjU1RXRmdyUyMiUzRUp1bHklMjAyMyUyQyUyMDIwMTglM0MlMkZhJTNFJTNDJTJGYmxvY2txdW90ZSUzRSUwQSUzQ3NjcmlwdCUyMGFzeW5jJTIwc3JjJTNEJTIyaHR0cHMlM0ElMkYlMkZwbGF0Zm9ybS50d2l0dGVyLmNvbSUyRndpZGdldHMuanMlMjIlMjBjaGFyc2V0JTNEJTIydXRmLTglMjIlM0UlM0MlMkZzY3JpcHQlM0UlMEE=[/vc_raw_html][/vc_column][/vc_row]

ChatGPT outage affects thousands of users globally, OpenAI reacts

OpenAI swiftly acknowledged the outage, publishing updates on their dedicated status page. This transparency, while offering little in the way of immediate solutions, served to reassure users that the company was actively addressing the situation.

On January 23, OpenAI’s popular AI chatbot, ChatGPT, suffered a significant global outage, leaving millions of users unable to access the service. The disruption affected multiple access points, including the web interface, the mobile application, and even integrations on social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter). This widespread failure quickly drew significant attention, with reports flooding in from users worldwide.

The outage tracking website, Downdetector, registered a surge in user reports, exceeding a thousand complaints within a short period. This volume underscored the scale of the disruption and the significant impact on ChatGPT’s user base.

The majority of these reports indicated a complete inability to use the chatbot, highlighting the severity of the problem. A smaller percentage of users reported encountering difficulties with the website or API, suggesting a less comprehensive but still noticeable impact.

OpenAI swiftly acknowledged the outage, publishing updates on their dedicated status page. This transparency, while offering little in the way of immediate solutions, served to reassure users that the company was actively addressing the situation.

The official statements consistently described the problem as “degraded performance” and “elevated error rates” within the API, hinting at underlying technical issues that required investigation. However, specific details regarding the root cause remained undisclosed, pending a more thorough examination.

According to reports, the outage commenced around 5 PM IST and persisted for several hours. The lack of a definitive timeline and the ongoing nature of the disruption underlined the complexity of the problem and the challenges faced by OpenAI’s engineering teams in resolving the issue.

As of the latest updates, the exact cause of the outage remains under investigation by OpenAI. The company is actively working to restore full functionality and provide a more comprehensive explanation once the underlying problem has been identified and rectified.

Prince Harry, Rupert Murdoch’s UK group reach settlement in surveillance case

The relentless media attention, he has claimed, also contributed to the intense pressure that led him and his wife, Meghan Markle, to step back from royal duties and relocate to the United States in 2020.

Published

on

Prince Harry has reached a settlement with Rupert Murdoch’s News Group Newspapers (NGN), bringing an abrupt end to a high-profile lawsuit alleging widespread phone hacking and unlawful surveillance.

The settlement, announced just as the trial was about to commence, includes substantial financial compensation for the Duke of Sussex and a formal, unequivocal apology from NGN. This marks a significant victory for Harry, who had accused the media giant of years of intrusive and illegal activities targeting his private life.

The apology, issued directly to Harry’s legal team, explicitly acknowledged the serious breach of privacy inflicted by both The Sun and the defunct News of the World. It detailed unlawful actions perpetrated between 1996 and 2011, including phone hacking, surveillance, and the use of private investigators to obtain sensitive information.

The statement specifically addressed the intrusive activities carried out by private investigators employed by The Sun, emphasizing the severity of the intrusion into Harry’s private life during his formative years. The apology extended to the distress caused to his late mother, Princess Diana, highlighting the impact of the media’s actions on the young prince.

This settlement represents one of three lawsuits filed by Harry against British media outlets, all stemming from accusations of privacy violations. He has consistently blamed the media for the relentless pursuit of his mother, Princess Diana, ultimately leading to her tragic death in a car crash in Paris while being chased by paparazzi.

The relentless media attention, he has claimed, also contributed to the intense pressure that led him and his wife, Meghan Markle, to step back from royal duties and relocate to the United States in 2020.

The case underscores the wider issue of phone hacking and media intrusion, exemplified by the notorious scandal that forced the closure of News of the World in 2011. The hacking of murdered schoolgirl Milly Dowler’s phone, during the police investigation into her disappearance, remains a particularly egregious example of the unethical practices employed by some sections of the British press.

Harry’s legal battle has brought renewed focus to this issue and the need for greater accountability within the media industry. The settlement, while ending this particular legal chapter, leaves a lasting legacy concerning media responsibility and the rights of public figures to privacy.

China reacts to Donald Trump’s 10% tariff remarks, says it would protect its national interest

While acknowledging a willingness to maintain open communication channels and collaborative efforts with the U.S., China firmly rejected the notion of a trade war, emphasizing that such conflicts ultimately yield no winners.

China has issued a firm response to US President Donald Trump’s renewed threat to impose a 10% tariff on Chinese imports, beginning February 1. The statement, released by the Chinese foreign ministry, underscores Beijing’s unwavering commitment to safeguarding its national interests amidst escalating trade tensions with the United States.

While acknowledging a willingness to maintain open communication channels and collaborative efforts with the U.S., China firmly rejected the notion of a trade war, emphasizing that such conflicts ultimately yield no winners.

The statement directly addresses Trump’s justification for the proposed tariffs, citing the flow of fentanyl from China through Mexico and Canada into the United States. This latest escalation marks a significant development in the long-standing trade dispute between the two economic giants.

The proposed tariffs, scheduled for implementation on February 1st, echo a similar threat made by Trump earlier, targeting Canada and Mexico with 25% tariffs over concerns about illegal immigration and fentanyl trafficking.

This consistent pattern of utilizing tariffs as a tool to address broader geopolitical concerns highlights the complex and multifaceted nature of the relationship between the United States and its major trading partners.

China’s economy, heavily reliant on exports to sustain its economic growth, faces significant vulnerability to such protectionist measures. Despite ongoing efforts to diversify its economy and boost domestic consumption, exports remain a crucial pillar of China’s economic engine. The potential impact of a 10% tariff on Chinese goods entering the U.S. market could trigger substantial ripple effects throughout the global economy.

The current trade tensions represent a continuation of a protracted struggle dating back to the Trump administration’s first term, marked by the imposition of substantial tariffs on Chinese imports over alleged unfair trade practices.

These actions were further reinforced by the subsequent Biden administration, which implemented sweeping measures aimed at restricting Chinese access to critical high-tech components.

Trump’s recent pronouncements signal a potential further escalation of these long-standing trade disputes. China’s response clearly indicates its readiness to defend its economic interests and navigate the complex landscape of international trade relations.
