Six Republican-led states have now pledged National Guard troops to the Trump administration’s takeover of Washington, D.C., where it has assumed control of policing under the claim of tackling crime.

Passionate ocean-lover Jérôme Delafosse has launched The Shark Project, a plea to reconcile humankind with the scary shark. Every hour 10,000 sharks are fished worldwide. Yet this mythical predator plays a key role in regulating marine life. Now more than ever sharks are threatened with extinction, especially in the waters of the developed world. So Jérôme is crossing the globe to spread the message and raise awareness - from France to the Bahamas, Indonesia, and Cocoa Island, then on to the UK and Belgium.

Cutting-edge technology. Sleek, ultra-modern buildings. The capital's second hub is on a fast track to the future. In the run up to the 2024 Olympics, and with the prospect of 33 million visitors in 2020 alone, Orly has its work cut out for it. Less than 12 kms from Paris, and with strict flight curfews, the challenges to transform the airport-from rebuilding its two runways to linking the airport to Paris by metro-are as great as its dramatic renovation plans. Prepare for takeoff.

President Trump says he is working on a “deal” to end the Russia-Ukraine war by hosting a series of meetings between the U.S., European Union, Russia’s Vladimir Putin and Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky.

The first world war: soldiers from at least 20 countries were plunged in the hell of trenches and caught under a deluge of bombs. A century later, archaeologists help bring to light the daily life of the soldiers fighting on the French Eastern Front and reveal unexpected aspects of life on the front.

President Trump is meeting today at the White House with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and several other European leaders. This comes three days after Trump’s meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska failed to secure a peace agreement. Ahead of the Alaska talks, Trump had vowed Russia would face “very severe consequences” if Putin did not agree to stop the war, but Trump then dropped his call for a ceasefire. Democracy Now! speaks with Katrina vanden Heuvel, Russia expert and publisher of The Nation magazine, on what’s next as peace ... continua
