Lu made the remarks in response to recent media repo
reports that India decided not to send a delegation to the second Belt and Road Forum for Internati
onal Cooperation later this month in Beijing. The reports said the initiative undermines the South Asia
n nation’s sovereignty via the BRI-related China-Pakistan Economic Corridor.
Lu said that, “If this decision about whether to participate in building the Belt and Road
was possibly made through a misunderstanding”, China firmly and sincerely advances the constr
uction of the Belt and Road on the basis of consultation and contribution for shared benefits.
He added that the initiative is open to all parties that are inter
ested in and willing to join in win-win cooperation.
It will not exclude any party, he said, adding that China is willin
g to wait if relevant parties need more time to consider their participation.
Elwell defended the agency’s reliance on experts from ma
anufacturers and said the current system had produced an unprecedented safety record i
n the US. He said the FAA was “fully involved” in the certification of the Boeing 737 Max 8, including “133 of the 297 flight tests”.
Senator Richard Blumenthal questioned the FAA’s oversight of the Boeing 737 Max jet, argu
ing that reliance on the manufacturer put “the fox in charge of the henhouse”.
Blumenthal said Boeing rushed to get the 737 Max in the air to compete with Europe’s Airbus and disregarded critical safety features.
“There needs to be rigorous reform so the FAA is put back in charge of safety,” he said. “The
fact is that the FAA decided to do safety on the cheap, which is neither safe nor cheap,” he said.
Senator Jerry Moran asked what it would take for the FAA on its own to certify airc
raft. Elwell said: “Ten thousand additional FAA employees and $1.8 billion” per year.
While May was addressing her lawmakers, MPs in the mai
n chamber debated eight other Brexit options, ranging from leaving abruptly with no deal to revoking the divorce altogether.
While there was no majority support for any, the option calling for a referendum on any depa
rture deal, and another suggesting a UK-wide customs union with the EU, won more votes than May’s deal did two weeks ago.
Oliver Letwin, a Conservative former cabinet minister who led parliament’s unusual power grab, said it ha
d been expected that none would immediately win a majority, and lawmakers would have another chance on Monday.
The uncertainty around Britain’s most significant political and economic change since W
orld War II has left allies and investors aghast. Sterling dipped after Wednesday’s events.
If May’s deal were to pass, her office said there would be a contest to replace her after May 22, when Britain would leave the EU.
In the Government Work Report, Li said that the govern
ment’s moves to cut taxes on this occasion aim at an accommo
dative effect to strengthen the basis for sustained growth while also considering the need to ens
ure fiscal sustainability. It is also a major measure to lighten the burden on businesses and boost market dynamism.
Participants at Wednesday’s meeting also decided on adjustments to the export tax rebate rates of certain goods and services and
to the tax deduction rate of purchases of farm produce. They decided to increase transfer payments to local gov
ernments, focusing on supporting the central and western regions and counties and prefectures experiencing difficulties.
“The share that goes to enterprises in the national income distribution ne
eds to be increased to boost market vitality. This will
help keep employment stable, expand tax sources and make public finance sustainable.” Li said.
My sincere and heartfelt thanks to my respected elde
brother, Mukesh, and Nita, for standing by me during these trying times, and de

the 5.5 billion rupees he provided, but local media reported it was around 4.8 billion ($70 million).

Then Trump claimed — wrongly — that the EU was unwillin
g to “negotiate with the Obama administration” about trade. In fact, the prev
ious administration sought to conclude a Transatlantic Trade and Investm
ent Partnership — or TTIP — with Europe, though was unable to get the deal across the line. Trump’s own talks on t
rade with Europe have been inconclusive, after he threatened to spark a trade war.
Trump vs. his global counterparts
Trump’s comments on Brexit also illustrated the tendency of a Pre
sident who admires dictators to throw allied leaders under the bus.
He criticized Prime Minister Theresa May, whose credibility has been shredded by parliamentary defeats.
”She didn’t listen to that and that’s fine, I mean, she’s got to do what she’s got to do,” said Trump, who was forced into
a rare apology last year after hammering May’s Brexit strategy on the eve of meeting her in the UK.
orth Korea defies UN with arms sales and oil imports, report says
North Korea has broken UN sanctions with a “massive” increase of oil imports and coal exports, a UN report has found.
The 400-page document released Monday by the UN Panel of Experts on North Korea
said that Pyongyang had also tried to sell weapons in the Middle East and hacked banks across the world.
The report comes after the collapse of last month’s talks between President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jo
ng Un in Hanoi, Vietnam, in part due to disagreement over when to remove sanctions in exchange for steps toward Pyongyang’s denuclearization.
The report said that Pyongyang rendered sanctions ineffective by increasing the number of ship-to-ship tran
sfers it conducts at sea. Japanese officials have observed North Korean ships engaging in purported ship-to-ship transfers.
”The country continues to defy Security Council resolutions through a massive i
ncrease in illegal ship-to-ship transfers of petroleum products and coal,” the UN report said.
There was a brief lull in the negative coverage after Prince
Harry instructed his spokesperson to issue a statement in November 2016 before the couple married, calling out “the racial
undertones of comment pieces and the outright sexism and racism of social media trolls and web article comments.”
Yomi Adegoke, author of Slay in Your Lane: The Black Girl Bible, said Meghan was very much a departure from what most people associate with the British royal family.
”She’s foreign, not just by being American, but she’s got black heritage, she’s a divorcee,” Adegoke said.
”She’s just a very different type of person and somebody that I don’t think your average British member of the public t
hinks of when they think of the word duchess or royal family at all.”Much of the trolling exploits the cla
ims of a rift between Meghan and her sister-in-law, the Duchess of Cambridge. Where Kate is lauded by the media for expo
sing her shoulder in a dress, Meghan is accused by the tabloids of breaking royal protocol for doing similar.
When Meghan wears dark nail polish, the “vulgar fashion move” is criticized for breaki
ng royal protocol “again.” Meanwhile, Kate is said to opt for “subtle” shades more in keeping with the Queen’s preferences.
