Chinese could shut down the Panama Canal.
"Nearly 6 percent of global trade and 57.5 percent of the cargo transported in container that ships from Asia to the East Coast of the United States passes through the Panama Canal. Today, this important infrastructure is the focus of great concern in political, economic, and academic sectors given the growing presence of the People’s Republic of China (PRC). “China has turned Panama into a geographic and commercial concentration center or strategic hub for its political, commercial, and military advance in the region,” Euclides Tapia, professor at the School of International Relations of the University of Panama, told Diálogo.
Sino-Panamanian commercial relations are long standing, however, only since 2017, when both nations strengthened diplomatic ties, did the influence and interference of the Asian country become noticeable. “I am not wrong in saying that since Panama broke relations with Taiwan to establish them with China the country’s independence has been extremely compromised,” Tapia said.
Since the beginning of the century, the PRC has infiltrated Latin America, overcoming physical and cultural barriers. It is now the region’s second largest trading partner. According to the World Economic Forum, in just two decades, its bilateral relations have increased 26-fold, from $12 billion in 2000 to $315 billion in 2020."

Backdoor in utility commonly used by Linux distros risks SSH compromise.
A backdoor was discovered in the xz compression utility commonly used in Linux distributions. Malicious code hidden in the utility package creates a critical supply chain threat that potentially exposes SSH services to unauthorized access.
Andres Freund, a principal software engineer at Microsoft, discovered the backdoor and reported it to Linux distributor Openwall Friday morning.
Malicious .m4 files added to the xz tarballs in version 5.6.0, which was released on Feb. 24, contained automake instructions for building the compression library liblzma that modified its functions to allow for unauthorized access.

Russia Diverts Oil Exports to India and China
Data from the International Energy Agency (IEA) reveals that the European Union’s embargo on the purchase, import and transfer of Russian crude oil at the end of 2022 has had almost no impact on the total volume of Russian oil exports. As the following chart shows, this is due to a number of other countries filling in the vacuum, largely driven by China and India, which increased their imports by 21 percent and 111 percent, respectively. Turkey, as well as a number of countries in both Africa and the Middle East, also imported more Russian oil.
Last year, EU member states imposed sanctions on Russia’s energy sector in response to the war in Ukraine. While this included an embargo on oil, a number of EU states that are particularly dependent on Russia's supplies were exempt from the ban, explaining why Russian oil was still being exported to the EU in 2023.
