The U.S. and Russia accused each other of unsafe actions on Friday after an American guided-missile cruiser and a Russian destroyer came within 165 feet (50 meters) of each other in the Philippine Sea. Acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan told reporters that the U.S. will file a formal diplomatic complaint about the incident and will have military to military conversations with the Russians. The U.S. 7th Fleet said the Russian destroyer put the safety of the USS Chancellorsville and its crew at risk, forcing it to reverse all engines at full throttle to avoid a collision. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://yhoo.it/2My5hAv via Latest News

Banning Huawei and fellow Chinese equipment maker ZTE from Europe's roll-out of 5G telecom networks would cost EU mobile operators up to 55 billion euros ($62 billion), according to an industry body's internal assessment seen by AFP Friday. The operators would also face delays of up to 18 months in getting next-generation 5G out to their customers, according to the impact assessment drawn up by the GSM Association, which represents mobile network operators around the world. The evaluation feeds into a debate triggered by US demands that companies in Europe and other allied nations shun Huawei as a 5G equipment supplier because of Washington's fears it could compromise intelligence services. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://yhoo.it/2Kzwi40 via Latest News

Twenty years after the massacre that shocked America, officials are considering tearing down and replacing Columbine High School to stop copycat shooters drawing inspiration from the site.The potential decision was announced by the school district superintendent, who said the Colorado school has become “a macabre source of inspiration” for would-be shooters and troubled people around the world.Just months ago, as the 20th anniversary of the shooting approached, a woman flocked to the state with the intent to kill, for instance. Another shooting in a nearby Colorado STEM school also left one dead and eight injured that month.Superintendent Jason E Glass said in a letter sent to the community in Columbine, notifying them that the idea to replace the building is being kicked about.Mr Glass said in that letter that the project would require voter approval, and would cost some $70m “at some point”.“Since that time, school shootings have become all-too-familiar in our nation,” Mr Glass wrote

WASHINGTON/MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Mexican and U.S. officials held a second day of talks on trade and migration on Thursday, with markets rebounding on optimism a deal could be close, although it was unclear if Mexican pledges to curb migration flows were enough to persuade the Trump administration to postpone tariffs. U.S. President Donald Trump has warned that tariffs of 5% on all Mexican exports to the United States will go into effect on Monday if Mexico does not step up efforts to stem an increase in mostly Central American migrants heading for the U.S. border. Bilateral talks in Washington began on Wednesday to attempt to strike a deal, with the Mexican government, U.S. business groups and even many of Trump's fellow Republicans keen to avert the tariffs, the prospect of which has rattled global financial markets. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://yhoo.it/2IEVHGX via Latest News

Boeing Co learned that a cockpit warning light on its 737 MAX jetliner was defective in 2017 but decided to defer fixing it until 2020, U.S. lawmakers said on Friday. The defective warning light alerts pilots when two sensors that measure the angle between the airflow and the wing disagree. Faulty "angle of attack" data is suspected of playing a role in two deadly crashes involving Boeing's best-selling 737 MAX in Indonesia in October and in Ethiopia in March. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://yhoo.it/2wFA9UR via Latest News
