From GERMANY- President Trump reinstated his belief that Greenland will be annexed by the US- there is an election over independence from Denmark next week, and Greenlanders do not want to be connected to the US. At an Egyptian summit Arab leaders endorsed a post-war redevelopment plan for Gaza. Israel has been blocking all aid from reaching Gaza since Sunday, leading to a return to starvation and more death.
From FRANCE- First a press review on the Trump administration bypassing Congress to send $4 billion in weapons to Israel, including 35,000 2000 pound bombs- Israel is gearing up for a return to war in Syria. Then some American press on Trumps speech to Congress. Press reviews on the UK summit on Ukraine.
From JAPAN- In Japan the price of rice has doubled in the past year leading to a government auction of stockpiles. European leaders are drafting a peace plan for Ukraine. NATO countries skipped an important UN Conference on the Treaty banning nuclear weapons. China is holding its annual Peoples Congress and they are hoping for another 5% increase in GDP despite the US doubling its tariff.
From CUBA- Arab leaders endorsed the Egyptian plan for the reconstruction of Gaza, and this story has more details than the DW report I played earlier. In London activists have criticized the BBC for removing the Palestinian documentary that was just awarded an Academy Award.
