Democrats overseeing the impeachment investigation into President Trump have expressed grave concern about his latest actions. The chairs of three Congressional committees have written a letter accusing Mr. Trump of mounting a misinformation campaign. Chris Buckler reports. In an open letter, senior Democrats in the House Foreign Affairs, Intelligence and Oversight Committees accuse president Trump of being unethical and unpatriotic in encouraging Ukraine to investigate his political rival Joe Biden. They've also published text that they received as part of their impeachment inquiries, in which the leading US diplomat in Ukraine Bill Taylor says that he thinks it would be crazy to withhold security assistance to try to ensure help with a political campaign. However, the American ambassador to Europe replies that the president had stated that there was to be no quid pro quos.

Senior officials in the US, Britain and Australia have criticized Facebook's plans to encrypt its messaging services, saying it could have security implications. They've called for the Facebook chief executive Mark Zuckerberg to halt the encryption plan. Gordon Corera explains. This would mean only the sender and recipient are able to read a message. Privacy advocates say this increases everyone's security. But it would mean that even if law enforcement agencies served a legal demand on Facebook to provide access to the content of a message, the company wouldn't be able to assist. The letter warns this would severely erode the ability of tech companies to respond to illegal content and activity, such as child sexual exploitation and terrorism, putting citizens and societies at risk. Gordon Corera.
美国、英国和澳大利亚的高级官员批评了Facebook加密其消息服务的计划，称这可能涉及安全问题。他们要求Facebook首席执行官马克•扎克伯格停止加密计划。以下是哥顿•克雷拉的报道。信息加密意味着只有发送方和接收方能够读取消息。隐私倡导者认为，这提高了每个人的信息安全。但这也意味着，即使执法机构对Facebook提出了提供信息内容访问权限的法律要求，该公司也无法提供帮助。信中警告称，这将严重削弱科技公司应对儿童性剥削和恐怖主义等非法内容和活动的能力，将公民和社会置于危险之中。
