From FRANCE- 2 press reviews. The first is about the meeting between South African President Cyril Ramaphosa and Donald Trump which turned controversial with claims of genocide. The second deals with the British government making deals on defense, fisheries, and energy with the EU- this is seen as a Brexit reset, nine years after the Brexit vote created a serious rift in the UK and in Europe.
From GERMANY- A group of western diplomats were inspecting the Israeli occupied West Bank when Israeli soldiers fired shots in their direction. 20 Israeli allies signed a letter demanding a full resumption of aid into Gaza immediately, and the UK government called the situation intolerable. An interview with Mustafa Barghouti, a Palestinian physician and politician, secretary general of the Palestine National Initiative. He says the whole world is fed up with the massacres being perpetrated in Gaza, leading to huge demonstrations in Europe and the US. He talks about Yoav Gallant, the former minister of defense. He says Palestine will have democratic elections when Israel leaves their territory.
From JAPAN- Nippon Steel says it wants to invest $14 billion into US Steel if Trump allows the sale. The WHO voted to be better prepared to deal with future pandemics but the US did not attend the hearings.
