WASHINGTON, July 31 (Bernama-Yonhap) – United States (US) President Donald Trump on Wednesday said his administration has agreed to impose a 15 per cent tariff on South Korea, 10 percentage points lower than initially proposed, under a trade deal that exempts US goods from tariffs. According to Yonhap news agency, Trump announced the agreement in a social media post shortly after meeting a South Korean trade delegation. Seoul had been pushing for a deal before Friday, when "reciprocal" tariffs were due to take effect unless an agreement was reached.

Canada "intends" to recognize a Palestinian state at the UN General Assembly in September, Prime Minister Mark Carney said July 30, a dramatic policy shift he said was necessary to preserve hopes of a two-state solution. (Photo by Dave Chan / AFP) "Canada intends to recognise the state of Palestine at the 80th session of the UN General Assembly in September 2025," he said, according to Anadolu Ajansi (AA). Carney reiterated Canada's long-standing support for a two-state solution -- an independent, viable and sovereign Palestinian state living side by side with Israel in peace and security. He said Canada's recognition is tied to the Palestinian Authority's commitment to "much-needed reform,' and pledged stronger support for democratic governance in Palestine. "Canada will increase its efforts in supporting strong democratic governance in Palestine and the contributions of its people to a more peaceful and hopeful future," he said. He noted that "any path to lasting peace for Israel also requires a viable and stable Palestinian state.' Carney also described the humanitarian crisis in Gaza as "intolerable and rapidly deteriorating,' and criticised Israel for allowing the situation to worsen. "Canada condemns the fact that the Israeli government has let the situation deteriorate in Gaza," he added. - BERNAMA-ANADOLU More Like This

Malaysia Reaffirms Role As Mediator In Thai-Cambodian Border Conflict

By Kenny Teng Khoon Hock BANGKOK, July 31 (Bernama) -- Malaysia's Chief of Defence Force, General Datuk Mohammad Nizam Jaffar, has reaffirmed the country's readiness to serve as a neutral mediator in supporting the Thai-Cambodian ceasefire. Spokesperson for the Royal Thai Army, Major General Winthai Suvaree, said the commitment was conveyed during his official visit to Thailand on Wednesday as part of efforts to promote peace and stability along the tense border. bootstrap slideshow Mohammad Nizam visited the Commanders of the First and Second Army Regions on Wednesday to receive a briefing on the ongoing border issue ahead of the planned observation mission. 'Mohammad Nizam also outlined plans to establish a Foreign Defence Attaché Team (DA Team) and an ASEAN Monitoring Team to observe the ceasefire and report factual developments to ASEAN member states,' Winthai said in a statement on Wednesday. According to Winthai, Mohammad Nizam emphasised three key points: an immediate ceasefire, no reinforcement of troops, and a focus on medical assistance as part of efforts leading up to the observation mission. During the visit, Mohammad Nizam met with Lieutenant General Boonsin Padklang, Commander of the 2nd Army Region, in Ubon Ratchathani Province, and Lieutenant General Amarit Boonsuya, Commander of the 1st Army Region, in Bangkok, to discuss the border situation and possible solutions. Winthai assured the Malaysian Chief of Defence Force that Thailand is strictly adhering to the ceasefire agreement and is ready to support the deployment of observer teams moving forward. Tensions at the border began with a brief skirmish on May 28, escalating into a full-scale armed conflict on July 24.
