China's position on Taiwan is becoming increasingly assertive, as seen in recent military exercises. The U.S. stance on Taiwan is complex—while we have historically acknowledged the One China policy, we also sell weapons to Taiwan, maintain a defensive military posture, and support its democratic institutions. Tensions over Taiwan could lead to serious conflict.

Globally, there are over 179.5 million confirmed COVID-19 cases, with 2.5 million new cases reported in the past week. Total deaths have reached nearly 3.9 million. In the U.S., there are over 34.4 million cases, with more than 617,000 deaths. Last week, only 2,000 deaths were reported, suggesting a slowdown in case growth. The U.S. saw about 7,500 new cases in the last 24 hours, though Florida no longer reports daily numbers, so the count might not be fully accurate. Meanwhile, India and Brazil are both seeing over 38,000 new cases and more than 700 deaths per day.
