and in so doing, we would allow an organization that has been established, called the committee on foreign investments in the united states. it is better suited for this, and it needs more authority, so congress can give it that authority. it's important that we not allow states to develop foreign policy, which is something that another nation-state might likely conclude is being done. >> mr. shou, texas republican lawmakers say the bill is about homeland security. but you and many asian americans in the state are not convinced that that is what this entirely about. do i have that right? >> you're absolutely right, reverend. thank you for having us on the show. it's a great honor to be on together with the distinguished champion. he has done so much for the asian american communities. now, as for this texas bill, it started with targeting all chinese nationals who even have a green card in this country, who have lived here for many years. and that has been exempted because of the hard and a long outcry from asian american communities, and from some of our business communities. so yes, i am 100% with t

well, real estate purchases are not included within the purview of what we called cfius, committee on foreign investment in the united states. we do have an ability to look at land purchases when they have annexes specifically to military sites, would the airport or seaports, i contacted the risk assessment if they foreign purchase of that is subject to foreign control. so we do feel we have some tools against that. with the balloon specifically, dhs is a did track the flight path and vertical apperception nodes. in fact, about 20 some notifications and outreach to stay in a local critical infrastructure entities to open understand and mitigate against the risk. >> did it appear the over flight path was actually over acquisitions by ccp related entities? >> i don't have that information. >> i'll do one for mr. durham. we've heard about a variety of threats and what mr. kahangama, just talked about with the land acquisition. could you speak to the threat ccp owned agricultural operations and effect that has on our supply chains and our nation's food security? >> thank you, chairman for the question. i th

the committee on foreign investment looks as you know at anything that might involve a strategic investment that could pose a threat to our security. needless to say we look very carefully at any investment from anywhere but notably from china that could pose a threat in one way or another. >> i'm out of time if you could respond to this in writing we have a quick response i would just say this there's a number of bills out there and it's not quantity, its quality and if it's the wrong site we are in trouble. thank you all very much. >> thank you. >> thank you madam chair and vice chair and thank you all for being here with us today. a secretary, i heard your response to senator collins question on fentanyl. i come from the state that has the largest amount of overdose deaths per capita than any other state in the union and a lot of it is directly attributable to fentanyl. your answer was highly inefficient because i don't have the impression that we are pressing hard enough. we were in mexico about a month ago talking to the president to try to help with that. things going on at the border

would place restrictions of one kind or another on foreign ownership to include chinese ownership of agricultural land. the committee on foreign investment looks to add anything that involves a strategic investment that could pose a threat to our security. i leave that to them. that's the problem of the treasury department. needless to say, we look very carefully in any investments from anywhere, but notably from china, that could pose a threat in one way or another on security. >> i'm out of time. either one of you can respond to this and writing, unless you have a quick response, i would say, there's a number of bills out there, and i think you're spot on. it's not quality, it's not quantity, it's quality. thank you all very much. >> thank you. senator capito? >> thank, you madam chair and vice chair. and thank you all for being here with us today and for your service. secretary blinken, i heard your response to senator collins question on fentanyl. i come from the state that has the largest amount of overdose deaths per capita than any other state and a lot of this is directly attributed to fentanyl. what i heard and your answer was h

review process called the committee of foreign investment in the united states as we refer to as fciyus and i look at foreign environment, particularly chinese investment building on the steps that you first took in 2019. if we cooperate and i'm confident we will meet the challenge and ensure a brighter future for both of our nations. and the future i want to discuss is ending efforts to delegitimize and discriminating against israel. whether it's the constant attacks of israel at the united nations, prejudice against israel on the world's stage is damaging and destructive. there's no clear example than the u.n. rights counsel, which has passed over 90 anti-israeli resolutions since 2006. yet, they have turned a blind eye to true human rights violations by iran, north korea and china. my colleagues in congress will continue to stand with israel and we will increase the pressure on the united nations to end these outrageous attacks. [applause] >> as we take the next steps of enhancing and bolstering our ongoing diplomatic and security dialogs. i want congress and the knesset to work closer together. and as speaker, an interparliament group between america and israe

state committee, property, despite difficult foreign policy conditions, the country continues large investment projects, since they are a kind of driver of the economy, in each region there is one or several investment projects, and, uh, for the region. there is a task to build large projects. here we are on the site of one project, which is already at a fairly advanced stage of implementation. our function is provided by the regulation of the river, if different orders are required. government decree or acts of a higher level on not a day of the area, the plant is ready. almost 40%. some equipment have already procured one of the priorities, avoiding imports and transferring subsystem technology from national manufacturers. all these issues are in the process of being resolved. the non-women’s plant should be ready for operation in 2025, which means that the largest latin american agro-technological exhibition egrishow 2023 has opened for the production of 1 million 100,000 tons of potash fertilizers in brazil , for the first time in history , belarusian enterprises also take part in it, as reported emergency and plenipotentiary method of our country in brazil, sergei lukashev

support of ukraine, this was stated by the head of the committee on foreign affairs of the us congress, michael mccold, they say. the west has invested billions in the business, but has not yet received a serious result. problems may arise with him, according to the british de times, with reference to leaked secret us documents, the ukrainian army has few chances in american intelligence, they believe that kiev, in the most favorable case for itself , can count on modest territorial acquisitions the only one who right on the plus side. so this is the western military-industrial complexes of ukraine for nato. vk is a unique opportunity to update their arsenals and test new weapons that ukrainians buy with money borrowed from the west. putting ukrainian forces on alert has not been easy, with many of the country's most experienced soldiers killed or wounded in a year of grueling fighting with russian forces , which means the counter-offensive is relying on new recruits who have yet to see combat. there is another big problem. on this moment. e is not enough. at the moment. there is a serious shortage of ammunition. we lack explosive in

i think that with the committee for foreign investment in the united states, there should be closer scrutiny ons, but we've seen some purchases go through even recently that were relatively close proximity to military bases. i'm not sure why they chose not to scrutinize that particular deal. they've had a trend of not exercising its ability to actually block and instead they frequently try to mitigate, but the mitigation measures are usually hollow and don't actually protect our national security. so with regards to the domestic investment, there are many in congress, myself, mr. newhouse and others that have legislation that would address that. let's focus on chinese investments in food supply elsewhere. i think about the southern globe, africa, south america, southeast asia. to what extent should that investment concern americans? >> i think the communist party's actions to try to lock up major supplies of commodities and goods probably including figurative also certainly rare earth material, cobalt and things that go into everything from regular consumer products to military goods is part of

king understood the keep connection between workers' rights and committee on foreign investment in the united states rights. whenever you're engaged in work and serves humanity, it has worth and dignity, all labor has dignity. until we have dignity for all workers, our work here remains unfinished. we have a long road left to travel. it is up to us to push our country further along the road. that's the message to knee in dr. king's words in the letter we read today. just a quick preface of what this letter was all about. we will turn to reverend warnock. dr. king was held in the birmingham, alabama, jail for the supposed crime of leading a series of peaceful protests and boycotts. est the goal was to pressure the business community to end discrimination in hear hiring for local jobs. some white ministers in alabama had taken issue with the boycotts. they told dr. king, slow down. we're supporting. we're for voting rights too. don't move too fast. don't demand too much. dr. king rejected that premise. it is up to all of us as members of our churches to demand justice now, not at some ha
