Ben Wallace (pictured left) said that Sweden and Finland's quick jump to joining 'opened a very valid question' about whether Kyiv should be given the same treatment as it looks to combat Russia's invading forces. But the Cabinet minister denied that "other members have a different opinion" and that, with consensus needed around new members, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was unlikely to see a seat reserved for him around the Nato table at the Nato table next month. The remarks came after the Foreign Minister's remarks at the Ukraine Recovery Conference last week, with James Cleverly claiming that Ukraine was already operating on the initiative initiated by Nato. After the two countries spoke together in bilateral meetings ahead of Canada Day on July 1, senior Conservative MP Wallace was speaking with Canadian defence minister Anita Anand at Can House in central London.

Norman is launching a 'Share Your Voice' campaign to reform the company's legislation, because small shareholders are in danger of being disenfranchised, according to Norman. He argues that increasing companies' ability to connect immediately with all their tiny shareholders, something that is not happening right now due to outmoded legislation. He also wants online annual general meetings to be recognised as legitimate, so that businesses are no longer compelled to hold a traditional shindig where shareholders are free to question bosses in person.

According to the country's defense ministry, there were 18 Chinese army aircraft and four ships spotted, 11 of which crossed the median line of the contended buffer zone. This comes during a time of increased tension in the area, after the United States shot down a 200ft Chinese spy balloon that was caught flying across Montana.

The Pentagon has reported that the unidentified object that was shot down over Lake Huron had flown near a critical US military base in Montana and had "potential surveillance capabilities." The unknown aerial object was shot down by an F-16 fighter jet over the Great Lakes at 2:42 p.m. EST on Sunday, after previously burning two other crafts over Alaska and Canada. A Department of Defense spokesperson has confirmed: "Based on its flight path and reports, we can safely connect this object to the radar signal picked up over Montana, which flew close to critical DOD installations.' We didn't think it was a kinetic military threat to anything on the ground, but it did warn it was a safety flight hazard and a danger due to its potential surveillance capabilities. In an attempt to learn more, our team will now try to recover the object.' Following reports of an unidentified air craft traveling through the Great Lakes, Michigan Senator Jack Bergman, of Michigan, tweeted Sunday afternoon that he had been in touch with his Department of Defense colleagues.

According to a Montana congressman, the mystery object detected above Havre is still higher than the United States

On Saturday night, Matt Rosendale, a Montana congressman whose district includes Havre, said that the US military will continue to monitor skies for an 'object.' 'I'm at an event, a Lincoln Reagan dinner in Columbus, Montana right now,' Rosendale told Fox News. 'And DOD called me because I've been sitting here and started giving me briefings to tell me what's going on.' OK, I told them that this is really the fourth balloon, OK.' Rosendale said he was told the Pentagon would track the missile but that it was not safe because it was dim, but they were unable to shoot it down because it was dark, a sarcastic insult online. The DOD told me that they will be tracking the object - they can't even tell what it is - until it comes back to life.' 'They don't have the ability to get any more eyes on the plane until it's back to them.' And then we'll be dealing with it again tomorrow morning.' NORAD, the North American Aerospace Defense Command, released a statement shortly after Rosendale's interview, leaving it unclear if there was actually an object or if it was a false alarm. A 'radar anomaly' was observed by NORAD, but jets "did not find any object to link to the radar hits.' NORAD will continue to monitor the situation,' the company said.'

'British F-22 jet's first to announce that this "object" over Canadian airspace has been knocked out,' tweeted Michael Chong, the shadow foreign minister. We don't have the resources to protect ourselves and our interests.' The condition of the Canadian armed forces must be investigated.' However, Anita Anand, Canada's defense minister, applauded the joint venture. She said she had discussed the incident with US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin' and reaffirmed that she and the US Government will continue to protect our sovereignty together.'
