This week has seen major upheavals on the global stage: Trump’s lavish and unprecedented UK state visit offered a boost to embattled Prime Minister Keir Starmer, while the US grappled with political fallout and free speech debates following activist Charlie Kirk’s assassination. Meanwhile, Israel faced a damning UN report accusing it of genocide in Gaza, charges it strongly rejected, and France was rocked by mass strikes against austerity as President Macron contended with both political unrest and a bizarre defamation case targeting his wife.
