Browsing: World News Briefing

All the news you need to start your day. Check-in every morning for the daily world news briefing – exclusively on WTX News.

What is happening around the world, it’s all going a bit Pete Tong! It has been a huge week in the middle east, with a fracterous ceasefire the Israelis keep breaking, and an intensification of genocide in Gaza and what is happening in Syria? How did this flare up again? And then we have Biden ‘I am the law’ approach to the justice system. And how did Pakistan and Georgia become allies in repression, perhaps it is in moustache?!

This weeks World news briefing looks at the escalation of war with Russia as Putin offers final warning to the West. Staying with important news from Europe, we dissect the decision of Georgia to postpone its ascension to the EU.

As we move onto the middle east it is impossibel to ignore the objusfaction being created by MSN. Not reporting on the genocide that is taking place in Gaza as even more tragedy unfolds with bombing of another refugee camp, there aren’t many left, and the ones that are, are being targeted by IDF.

Despite the ceasefire in Lebanon the horrors are not over, the destitute Lebanese returning home to theft and vandalism which no one else is reporting.

Is there any hope of a ceasefire in Gaza or is this a race to finish, to see if Netanyahu can exterminate a million Palestinians before he is forced to make a truce when Trump gets into office!

Today’s world news briefing is dominated by Netanyahu, from his rants of the arrest warrant antisemitic to his chances of escaping prosecution at home and abroad, we bring you the inside scoop of what the politicians and strategists are doing behind the scenes.

A lot is being made of this ‘long range missiles’ but there is a red line that neither party will cross. However, it does look like the Biden administration is keen to use as much ammo as possible before he leaves office.

This will be a watershed moment for Starmer, as a former barrister, chomping at the succeed of his legal accomplishments, but if he takes a stance which is perceived as ‘against the rule of law’ he will lose even more credibility.

Although the majority of EU nations, have said they would honour the warrant, in most cases it is just lip service, because the chances of Netanyahu actually travelling to any of these countries is very slim.

Sir Keir Starmer in a power play at the G20. Staying with the Ukraine war the British prime minister, will urge G20 leaders to “double down” on their support for Ukraine, he needs this for his political future to be taken seriously on the world stage.

Viktor Orban is defiant to show the EU, he can lift Hungary out of a near recession and will not be a puppet. This is despite the financial sanctions imposed by the EU. Even against the backdrop of his rule of law dispute with Brussels, Orbán has exacerbated tensions with other EU capitals by maintaining strong diplomatic ties with both Beijing and Moscow.

Israel continues to pound Lebanon, killing eight more paramedics as the US envoy arrives to discuss its truce plan.
In Gaza the Red Cross is evacuating its hospital and it fears Israel will flatten the building this week. In a damning report for the Israelis according to a Human Rights Watch report emphatically reports Israel has committed war crimes in Gaza.

Over the past two weeks, it has become increasingly evident that politicians, backed by powerful lobby groups, often feel unaccountable to the public except during election periods. This is precisely when the electorate must pressure and hold their representatives—whether MPs, governors, or members of Congress—to account.

We are also seeing a notable rise in interest toward BRICS. Western nations’ firm control over the global financial system has spurred Middle Eastern and Eastern European states to reassess their reliance on this framework.

A further revelation over the past fortnight has highlighted duplicity within the EU, where evidence suggests that despite sanctions, the EU is continuing to purchase Russian oil and gas through intermediaries.
