Russia sought China’s APPROVAL for missile test, US diplomat claims. His proof? They didn’t come to his Twitter to deny it Ignoring one’s tweet can apparently not only spell the end to a teenage romance, but it can also be proof for high-profile geopolitical assertions. That is, at least, according to a high-ranking US diplomat. The recent secretive test of a Russian – presumably – anti-ballistic missile weapon has seemingly caused quite a stir in the US.

The CD is a UN-linked intern...

New York sees lowest Covid-19 death toll in April, but reopening would require ‘ARMY’ for contact tracing and more tests New York had its lowest death toll from Covid-19 since April 1, but Governor Andrew Cuomo warned a lot is still required before the state can start to reopen, including an ‘army’ of tracers and more coronavirus tests. Though announcing 540 new Covid-19 deaths at his daily press briefing represents a fairly sharp decline from past weeks, Cuomo warned the numbers are still “soul-crushing,” and coronavirus hospitalization rates remain steady at about 2,000 new patients a day.
