BEIJING (Reuters) - iQiyi, China's answer to Netflix, will offer free movies and television shows in some areas over the Lunar New Year holiday, after Beijing urged platforms to drop their paywalls with many people stuck at home to help combat the pandemic. iQiyi, whose parent is search engine giant Baidu said it would make a "free-of-charge viewing" category available in Beijing and the nearby province of Hebei that will contain content usually restricted to members. The move came shortly after China's National Development and Reform Commission said online video service providers should increase their offerings of free movies and other content "to create good atmosphere for the holiday and to better satisfy the spiritual and cultural demand of the masses who will not return home".

The Biden administration paused or put under review a wide swath of Trump-era foreign policies as America’s new top diplomat took the helm of the State Department. The administration placed at least temporarily holds on several big-ticket arms sales to the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia, while newly installed Secretary of State Antony Blinken said he is looking urgently at a terrorism designation against Yemen’s Houthi rebels that his predecessor enacted shortly before leaving office. On his first full day on the job, Blinken said Wednesday the administration has initiated a comprehensive review of the U.S. relationship with Russia and is examining details of a U.S.-Taliban peace deal signed nearly a year ago.
In the most ambitious U.S. effort to stave off the worst of climate change, President Joe Biden signed executive orders to transform the nation’s heavily fossil-fuel powered economy into a clean-burning one, pausing oil and gas leasing on federal land and targeting subsidies for those industries.

Biden’s sweeping plan is aimed at staving off the worst of global warming caused by burning fossil fuels.
