Binance says SEC's request to freeze assets could bring its operations to halt
"Binance .US has responded to the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) request to freeze its funds, arguing that such action could potentially lead to the termination of its operations," the crypto exchange said, adding that its court filing comes shortly before the hearing to emphasize the urgency of the matter.
Binance has expressed concerns over the potential consequences of the SEC's decision, including negative effect on its business activities. A fair and thorough assessment of the situation is needed before any decisions are made, it said.
On June 5, the SEC accused Binance of defrauding investors and concealing information about its operations. The complaint said that the exchange had secretly sent billions of dollars to a separate company, controlled by Binance's founder, Changpeng Zhao. Zhao, who lives in Dubai, dismissed the SEC’s charges on Twitter as untrue.

🇹🇷🇸🇪 Turkiye ‘unlikely’ to let Sweden join NATO at upcoming meeting
Ankara does not intend to lift its objections to Sweden’s membership in NATO at a meeting between the two sides planned for this week, US media is reporting.
According to an American business journal, Turkiye is “unlikely to signal it’s ready to approve Sweden’s bid to join NATO” in the near-term due to Stockholm’s permissive attitude towards a group of Kurdish separatists known as the PKK, which Ankara accuses of terrorism.
Citing “people familiar with the matter,” the US-based outlet wrote that “Ankara still wants Sweden to do more to comply with its conditions to sign off on its membership in time for a summit of the military alliance’s leaders next month.”
Those presumably-Turkish sources reportedly “stressed Sweden’s full compliance with the agreement is key for the expansion process to move forward.”
