Pune: The first edition of Cambodia-India Bilateral Army Exercise ( CINBAX-I ) successfully concluded on Friday, marking a significant milestone in strengthening military cooperation and interoperability between the two nations. The joint exercise saw active participation from both the Cambodian and Indian contingents, enhancing their operational synergy and exposing the Cambodian contingent to the functioning of staff officers during the United Nations Peacekeeping Operations (UNPKO). It also highlighted India's military training and defence technology expertise, fostering a shared understanding of modern military practices. A key component of it was a planning exercise aimed at wargaming the conduct of joint Counter-Terrorism (CT) operations under chapter VII of the United Nations Charter. The exercise focused on discussions related to establishment of a joint training task force for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR). It also included the planning of operations in a CT environment, wargaming various contingencies, and exploring the employment of force multipliers in sub-conventional operations—combat firing at battle range. A live firing exercise was also part of the exercise. "The exercise has successfully enhanced operational synergy and fostered deeper mutual understanding between Indian and Cambodian armies. The exercise served as a platform for sharing best practices and exploring avenues for future collaboration in peacekeeping and defence technology," said a senior army officer. The Cambodian contingent visited the College of Military Engineering (CME) where they were introduced to humanitarian mine action techniques employed during UN missions. They were also briefed on anti-IED and explosives actions, including the role of canine units (dog IEDs), and witnessed art equipment and new-generation equipment used by the Corps of Engineers. The exercise included a comprehensive display of equipment such as NEGEV light machine guns, SIG 716 rifles, mortar systems, thermal imaging instruments, and sniper rifles. In line with 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' initiative, major firms from India's defence technology sector, including MKU, Jatayu, Ikran Aerospace, and AI Innovations, showcased their indigenous products.

Michigan aims to cap lost season by beating Ohio State
Romanian lawmakers on Monday voted narrowly in favor of a new pro-European coalition government led by incumbent Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu. The move could usher in an end to a protracted political crisis in the European Union country following the annulment of a presidential election by a top court. Parliament approved the new administration in a 240-143 vote in Romania's 466-seat legislature. The new coalition is made up of the leftist Social Democratic Party, or PSD, the center-right National Liberal Party, PNL, the small ethnic Hungarian UDMR party and national minorities. It caps a month-long period of turmoil in which far-right nationalists made significant gains in a Dec. 1 parliamentary election, a week after a first-round presidential race saw the far-right outsider Calin Georgescu emerge as the front-runner. “It will not be an easy mandate for the future government,” Ciolacu, whose PSD party topped the polls in the parliamentary election, said in a statement Monday. “We are aware that we are in the midst of a deep political crisis," he said. "It is also a crisis of trust, and this coalition aims to regain the trust of citizens, the trust of the people.” Romani's 16 ministerial positions will be shared among the parties, which will hold a slim majority in the legislature. It's widely seen as a tactical partnership to shut out far-right nationalists whose voices found fertile ground amid high living costs and a sluggish economy. Ciolacu, who came third in the first-round presidential ballot despite polls indicating he would win the most votes, has served as prime minister since June 2023. After parliament’s approval, President Klaus Iohannis swore in the new government and warned the new Cabinet that it's entering a “difficult new period” in which “for many Romanians, there are major concerns.” Romania was plunged into turmoil after Georgescu’s surprise success in the presidential race, after allegations of electoral violations and Russian interference emerged. Days before the Dec. 8 runoff, the Constitutional Court made the unprecedented move to annul the presidential race. “We go through complicated times, but I think we all learned from mistakes of the past,” Ciolacu said. “I hope that together with my colleagues in the coalition, we’ll find the best solutions to get past the challenges we have in front of us.” Ciolacu said that the new government would aim to quickly organize the rerun of the presidential election in which the new coalition has agreed to put forward an agreed common pro-European candidate. Cristian Andrei, a political consultant based in Bucharest, said that the new government made up of the same political parties will likely embrace “soft populist” rhetoric such as economic patriotism, anti-austerity, and a peace solution in neighboring Ukraine to counter the rise of far-right populism. “This will be a way to answer the concerns of many Romanians who voted for populists ... but will not solve the fundamental problem of trust,” he said. “The only decisive factor now will be who and how convincing the pro-European candidates will be against this popular revolt.” George Simion, the leader of the far-right Alliance for the Unity of Romanians, which came second in the parliamentary election, said that all lawmakers from his party on Monday would vote against the Ciolacu government. In 2021, the PSD and the PNL also formed an unlikely but increasingly strained coalition together with UDMR, which exited the Cabinet last year after a power-sharing dispute.Texas has nation's top recruiting class after landing elite defensive lineman from Georgia
