Tensions Grow Between China and Australia Over Taiwan
Australia have raised concerns over China’s continued show over dominance towards Taiwan. Last week, China continued its military harassment of Taiwan, by flying a continued number of jets over the country.
Chinese President Xi Jinping has continued to promise the “peaceful reunification” of the self-ruled territory. However, any attempt of China to take control of Taiwan would undermine the peace of the entire Pacific region.
Australia, America and the UK have entered into a historic security pact, which has been seen as a counter to the Chinese show of aggression in the region.
Taiwan’s President has spoken of a hypothetical invasion of China. “If Taiwan were to fall, the consequences would be catastrophic for regional peace and the democratic alliance system,” wrote President Tsai Ying-wen in Foreign Affairs. “It would signal that in today’s global contest of values, authoritarianism has the upper hand over democracy.”

“Christian Flag” Case to go to Supreme Court
A Christian organization, who want the city of Boston to fly their flag, will take their fght to the Supreme Court. City Hall has three flag poles: one for the American flag, another for the Massachusetts state flag, and the third is used for various other flags.
The LGBTQ+ flag has been flown on the third pole, as well as flags from other nations.
The city argues the flying of the Christian organizations flag would be seen as endorsing a particular religion.
“The city has never before displayed such a flag and, as such, this pioneering elevation of an ‘important symbol’ of the Christian heritage would come without the secular context or importance that the passage of time may have afforded other displays,” Judge Bruce Selya wrote in the opinion of the 1st Circuit Court of Appeals.
“The raising of the Christian flag thus would threaten to communicate and endorse a purely religious message on behalf of the city. Where that endorsement is as widely visible and accessible as it is here, and where the city could run the risk of repeatedly coordinating the use of government property with hierarchs of all religions, the city’s establishment concerns are legitimate.”
