The United Kingdom has once again distanced from US President Donald Trump for his anti-Muslim propaganda saying he was “wrong” to share the videos posted by Jayda Fransen, the deputy leader of Britain first, a far- right and ultra- nationalist political group.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]However, according to a latest BBC report, Donald Trump has told British PM Theresa May to focus on “terrorism” in UK.

The spokesperson further said, “British people overwhelmingly reject the prejudiced rhetoric of the far-right, which is the antithesis of the values that this country represents — decency, tolerance and respect.”

However the British spokesperson said that US President Donald Trump’s upcoming 2018 state visit for now remains on.

This is the second time within few months when UK has publicly differed US administration on a Muslim related issue. Tension between US and UK surfaced in September when British foreign secretary Boris Johnson urged the world to have faith in nuclear deal potential to create more open Iran, while his US counterpart Rex Tillerson argued Iran was not fulfilling the deal’s expectations. Most of the European countries and other UN Security Council permanent members, except US, are supporting the continuation of the Iran nuclear deal.

Fransen was convicted by British court in 2016 for harassing women wearing Islamic veil (hijab). She is banned from entering mosques in UK for her “regular mosque invasions”.

Meanwhile, Jeremy Corbyn, the opposition Labour Party leader in British parliament called Trump’s re-tweets “abhorrent, dangerous and a threat to our society.”[/vc_column_text][vc_raw_html]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[/vc_raw_html][vc_column_text]David Lammy, another Labour lawmaker told US President that he was “not welcome in my country and my city.”[/vc_column_text][vc_raw_html]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[/vc_raw_html][vc_column_text]Similarly the Muslim Council of Britain has urged the country’s authorities to distance themselves from Trump and his comments.[/vc_column_text][vc_raw_html]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[/vc_raw_html][vc_column_text]The videos posted by far-right Britain First deputy leader Jayda Fransen, depict purported Muslims assaulting people and in one video smashing a statue of the Virgin Mary.

Donald Trump, who had during his early days in white House warned that immigration from Muslim majority nations threatens European and US security, frequently re-tweets other messages whose political views he finds matching those of his own.

Jayda Fransen was encouraged by Trump’s re-tweet and expressed thanks to US president. She said that “GOD BLESS YOU TRUMP!” all in capital letters.

Meanwhile white House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders defended Trump’s re-tweets saying that he shared the videos to start a conversation about border security and immigration. He was quoted saying, “I think his goal is to promote strong borders and strong national security.”

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) responded to Trump’s move by calling “incitement of violence against American Muslims”

“By his unconscionable and irresponsible actions this morning, President Trump is clearly telling members of his base that they should hate Islam and Muslims,” said Nihad Awad, the national executive director of CAIR.[/vc_column_text][/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

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.
