China denies the claims of meddling in US elections

Newsday

Available for 29 days

President Trump has accused China of extensive interference in the Twenty-Twenty (2020) elections and alleged that US intelligence had covered up attempts by Beijing to damage him electorally. Andy Burnham will promise a new path for Britain in a speech as he becomes the new Labour leader and the incoming British Prime Minister. It will mark a rapid rise to power for the Greater Manchester Mayor. But who is the man behind such a meteoric rise? Ukraine has been rocked by a political crisis with the dismissal of popular defence minister Mykhailo Fedorov and reshuffling of the government. So what does this mean for Zelensky and future of war against Russia. We go live to Kyiv.
