It has been always quite clear that destroying Syrian chemical weapons would have been a difficult mission, but the current situation it's more complicated than expected. The first great problem burst out in December when OPCW was looking for a way to destroy Assad's chemical armoury and no State nor private organization volunteered. Because of that and due to a short amount of available time, OPCW board was forced to solve the “crisis” going with a earlier set aside-option : destroying the chemical material in international waters in more than one step. The second huge problem revealed itself at the end of 2013 and it messed up OPCW schedule: according to their plan, the most dangerous part of Syrian chemical armoury should have been removed from Syrian territory by 31 December but they failed because of bad weather condition and because of the never-ending clashes between Assad's troops and the rebel groups within the ongoing civil war. Now everything it's on move again but the premises aren't really bright.

Sarebbe un'unità segreta dell’esercito di liberazione popolare cinese, la responsabile della maggior parte dei tanti attacchi informatici cinesi in aziende statunitensi e relative infrastrutture. A dirlo è David Sanger corrispondente da Washington per il New York Times.
Dal punto di vista diplomatico la realtà Cyber è molto complicata… pensare che il proprio avversario possa riuscire ad intrufolarsi nei propri sistemi riuscendo addirittura ad impossessarsene, con la possibilità di spegnerli in qualsiasi momento o di riattivarli a proprio piacimento, non è difficile ipotizzare le conseguenze su tutti i settori come ad esempio il controllo dello spazio aereo ma non solo. Uno dei recenti attacchi ha visto come target proprio il New York Times, e dalla relazione di una società di sicurezza informatica si evincerebbe il pieno coinvolgimento dei militari cinesi in questa azione.
