General Ingo Gerhartz has taken over the NATO headquarters in Brunssum, replacing Guglielmo Luigi Miglietta. He will lead the defense of NATO's eastern flank, which stretches for 4,000 km.

The Operational Command of the Joint Allied Forces on the eastern flank of the North Atlantic Alliance (NATO), headquartered in Brunssum, the Netherlands, has been headed by Inspector of the Air Force of the Bundeswehr, General Ingo Gerhartz. This is reported by UNN referring to the NATO Joint Command.

Details

The 59-year-old general replaced Italian General Guglielmo Luigi Miglietta in this position. In the coming years, Gerhartz will lead the operational defense of NATO's eastern flank, which stretches from Norway to Hungary. Thus, Gerhartz will take command of the army along the nearly 4,000-kilometer border of NATO countries with Russia and Belarus.

We are now facing a hot war in Europe. Today's threats are greater than ever before

- the general said during his inauguration.

Ingo Gerhartz was one of the Bundeswehr officers whose talks were intercepted and published by Russian propaganda in March 2024. The German Ministry of Defense then acknowledged the leak of a recording of an online conference of senior officers of the German Air Force (Luftwaffe).

After the interception of conversations regarding Gerhartz, an investigation was launched, but it was terminated as his involvement in the leak was not confirmed.

Addition

German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius arrived in Kyiv on Thursday, saying he wants to talk to Ukrainian leaders about Russia's war against Ukraine. Additional military assistance will also be discussed.

## US-China Agreement: Washington Reveals Details The United States and China have reached an agreement to limit the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in military applications and to discuss the risks associated with this technology. This was reported by Reuters, citing a high-ranking US official. The agreement was reached during recent talks between US President Joe Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping. According to the official, both countries agreed to hold expert-level discussions on the risks and security issues related to advanced AI. "We agreed to hold our first discussion of AI risks and security later this spring," the US official said. The official also noted that the US has emphasized the need for China to take action to stop the export of chemicals used in the production of fentanyl. "We made it clear that we need to see action, and we need to see results," the official said. According to him, Biden also raised concerns about China's support for Russia's military-industrial base. "We have seen China take steps to support Russia's defense industrial base, and we have made it clear that this is something we are watching very closely," the official said. It is worth noting that relations between the US and China remain tense due to a number of issues, including trade, human rights, and China's territorial claims in the South China Sea. However, both countries have expressed a desire to maintain dialogue and find areas of cooperation.
