Latest fact checks – From across the internet
Has China Initiated Zero Conflicts Since Founding of PRC?
False. As attested by a number of experts and published authors on modern Chinese history, the claim in Kim Dotcom’s tweet that modern China has initiated zero conflicts is false.
The People’s Republic of China has started a number of conflicts, trained revolutionaries, and contributed to other conflicts in Asia. It appears that the “no conflicts” claim was made by Xi Jinping in 2021.
Are U.S. Troops on the Ground in Ukraine?
While the Pentagon briefing of the news media highlights the most direct role American personnel have played within Ukraine, to call it “boots on the ground” is an overstatement.
The team will be weapons experts with the aim of keeping tabs on the U.S.-supplied arms in an operation that does not involve American soldiers fighting alongside Ukrainian forces. The inspectors will not be near the frontline, the Pentagon said.
