US Air Force opposes Chinese company's corn plant for North Dakota

The U.S. Air Force has told North Dakota leaders that it believes a Chinese company's plans to build a wet corn milling plant near its Grand Forks base poses a significant threat to national security, prompting city officials to say they'll move to stop a project once touted as an economic boon.

Doug Burgum and U.S. Sens. John Hoeven and Kevin Cramer all Republicans pressed the federal government in July to expedite a review of any security risk.

China on Monday criticized U.S. controls on technology exports as a trade violation. Fears over spying have led the U.S. armed forces to prohibited the Chinese-owned app TikTok on military devices, and

Air India said on Tuesday it will curtail or revise its flights to the US due to deployment of 5G internet there from January 19. US aviation regulator Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) had on January 14 said that 5G interference with the aircraft's radio altimeter could prevent engine and braking systems from transitioning to landing mode, which could prevent an aircraft from stopping on the runway.

The group comprises airlines such as United Airlines, American Airlines, Delta Airlines and FedEx. Apart from Air India, United Airlines and American Airlines are the other two carriers that operate flights between India and the US.
