February 7th - US President Trump tweeted: "We need more competition to fight our enemies—the national television networks that spread fake news. Facilitating a good deal like Nexstar-Tegna will help combat fake news because it will bring more, higher-level, and more sophisticated competition. Those who oppose it dont fully understand the benefits for them, but they will in the future. Get this deal done!"February 7th - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy posted a message on the 7th local time, stating that he received a briefing from the Ukrainian negotiating team following their talks with the US and Russia. The Ukrainian negotiating team provided him with a detailed overview of the progress of the negotiations. He stated that Ukraine needs to achieve substantial results, and one of the most important foundations for a peaceful resolution is effective security guarantees.February 7th - While the control dispute at Nexperia remains unresolved, another Chinese acquisition of a British chip company is attracting increasing attention. February 7th was the deadline set by the UK government for the mandatory sale of the FTDI acquisition, subject to national security review. This overseas acquisition by China, completed in 2021, is now entering its final countdown to mandatory sale. Back in November 2024, the UK government formally notified the Chinese consortium that it must transfer all its shares in Future Technology Devices International Limited (FTDI), a UK USB bridge chip company, by the stipulated time. The UK cited the National Security and Investments Act (NSIA), which came into effect in 2022, citing "potential threats to national security." An industry insider stated that the Chinese consortium has been trying to secure more time. The latest extension application is still awaiting a response from the UK, and based on past experience, there is still a certain probability of the extension being approved.February 7th - It was learned from the Ministry of Water Resources that, in order to further improve the construction, operation, and management mechanisms of major water conservancy projects, the Ministry of Water Resources and the National Development and Reform Commission recently issued the "Implementation Opinions on Improving the Construction, Operation, and Management Mechanisms of Major Water Conservancy Projects." Major water conservancy projects are important infrastructure for promoting high-quality economic and social development, playing a crucial supporting role in ensuring flood control, water supply, food security, and ecological security. The opinions are divided into four parts: general requirements, improving the high-quality construction mechanism, improving the high-level operation mechanism, and improving the high-efficiency management mechanism. The opinions require that, focusing on the national water network construction goals of "complete systems, safety and reliability, intensive and efficient, green and intelligent, smooth circulation, and orderly regulation," the government should guide and the market should participate, coordinating "hard investment" and "soft construction," improving the construction and operation mechanism of projects with clear responsibilities, diversified investment, and a focus on both quality and efficiency, and forming a comprehensive, data-driven, and efficient management and guarantee system to achieve high-quality construction, high-level operation, and high-efficiency management of major water conservancy projects.Algeria plans to cancel its air services agreement with the United Arab Emirates.

Global crypto rules needed to keep markets clean, says UK watchdog

International crypto companies like Binance must be governed by global laws in order to "keep markets clean," according to a statement made on Thursday by the British Financial Conduct Authority.


The majority of the world's cryptocurrency companies are unregulated, but several nations want proof that they have effective safeguards in place to thwart money laundering.


The biggest cryptocurrency exchange in the world, Binance, was told by the FCA last year that it was "not capable of being adequately monitored" and so could not engage in any regulated activity in Britain.


Regulators in Spain, France, and Italy have this year given Binance permission to operate in those countries' domestic marketplaces.


In answer to a query on whether authorities are being pitted against one another by cryptocurrency startups, FCA Chief Executive Nikhil Rathi said at the Peterson Institute for International Economics in Washington, "I believe some global baseline norms are vital."


The clean markets that we all want depend on having excellent shared regulatory standards and information sharing across borders, according to Rathi. "As we have seen in other domains like anti-money laundering, these are essentially cross-border actions by some very well organized players," he added.


After rejecting applications from a large number of organizations, the regulator has come under fire from the cryptocurrency industry.


We will always be vigilant about consumer protection when it comes to cryptocurrencies, Rathi stated.

Rathi said that, regrettably, the FCA's long-ago warning that holders of crypto currencies may lose all of their money has come true after the recent decline in the price of bitcoin.


global regulatory agency, the Financial Stability Board, said this week that it planned to provide draft proposals for regulating crypto assets to G20 nations in October.


Earlier this month, a French member of the European Parliament asked the French market regulator to reconsider its decision to register Binance.
