of hormuz and right in the middle of the strait of hormuz is a maritime border but oman shares with iran to the west it has its western border again just a few kilometers away and it's shares that border with the united arab emirates and with saudi arabia and with yemen that means that oman has had decades to achieve a very carefully balanced diplomatic situation between several major players on either side of it which also means for trade purposes oman does business with iran and mine does business with saudi arabia yemen the u.a.e. and other arab countries further up the the western side of the gulf it does not want to rock that diplomatic boat but i was talking to a smilin tree and strategic analyst from university alley or on the softer noon he tells me that this is the closest that oman has come to being forced into taking sides in any time that he can remember and oman does not want to rock that diplomatic boat it's going to be important for mando to try to retain some sort of middle ground whilst trying to make sure that everybody else around them is still happy with the deci

consequently because of their refusal to accept its independence the hundred ten mile wide taiwan strait remains one of the most heavily militarized flashpoint in the world to add fuel to china's fire it seems the u.s. is backing taiwan by not only signing a bill back in september twenty approving three hundred thirty million dollars worth of arms sales but on the thirty first of december trump signed a pro taiwan asia reassurance initiative act into law promising increased support in the india pacific region including arms sales for u.s. allies like taiwan as well as others it's not the first time china has aired its anger and they're certainly not holding back at the u.s. this time. we follow the trail of weapons by the united states to taiwan is a serious violation of international law and the basic principles of international relations songs of what the role of an ak seriously violates the one china principle and grossly interference in china's internal affairs stronger dissatisfied and opposed to the us insisting on signing used into law and we have made solemn complaints with the u

those who rule without democracy in their countries are trying to prop up maduro while he is in dire straits nor are these countries supporting international norms as they cynically claim. china and russia are propping up a regime to recover millions of dollars in assistance over the years. the money was never intended to help the venezuelan people. it lined the pockets of the maduro regime, its cronies and benefactors. for years, cuban security and intelligence invited into venezuela by maduro himself, have sustained the illegitimate rule. they have trained maduro's security henchmen in cuba's worst practices. the cuban security minister provides president maduro's security. members use microphones to condemn for interference in international affairs. let's be clear. the foreign power meddling in venezuela is cuba. cuba has made matters worse. the united states and our partners are the true friends of the venezuelan people. on wednesday the venezuelan people chose to take their country back on the anniversary of the day that the dictator was forced out of power in 1958. we call for venezuel
