Too Cold for an Oil Cut? Russia’s Move Reveals a Long-Running Bluff
MOSCOW — For most of the post-Soviet period, energy officials in Russia have resisted OPEC entreaties to participate in production cuts to help prop up oil prices, arguing that doing so was impossible because of the country’s cold climate. This week, confronted by a gusher of unsaleable oil and no place to put it, Russian energy executives unveiled plans to reduce production by a fifth by shutting down wells, many of them in the Arctic.

Trump 'very confident' of Covid-19 vaccine in 2020 and predicts up to 100,000 US deaths
The president used a Fox News “virtual town hall” on Sunday night to repeat his regular virus talking points, including that a vaccine was not far away, Covid-19 was China’s fault and the economy would not only recover but “grow like crazy”.
“We are very confident we are going to have a vaccine by the end of the year,” Trump said. Scientists have repeatedly warned that a vaccine may take 12-18 months or longer.
Trump in April predicted 60,000 American lives would be lost but on Sunday said: “We’re going to lose anywhere from 75, 80 to 100,000 people. That’s a horrible thing.”
Mike Pompeo: 'enormous evidence' coronavirus came from Chinese lab
Pompeo’s claims, made in an interview with ABC’s This Week, represented an escalation in rhetoric. He had previously said the US was looking into the possibility the virus came from a lab in Wuhan, China.
On Sunday, Pompeo said: “There is enormous evidence that that’s where this began,” later adding: “I can tell you that there is a significant amount of evidence that this came from that laboratory in Wuhan.”
Japan to extend state of emergency amid fears second wave could cripple Tokyo hospitals
The restrictions were due to end on Wednesday – the end of a series of public holidays known as Golden Week – but Abe has reportedly decided to extend them on the advice of experts who warned that a second wave of infections could put intolerable pressure on hospitals, particularly in Tokyo.
Abe, who was due to explain his decision at a press conference later Monday, has warned that Japan faces a “drawn-out battle” against the virus.
Spain and Italy ease Covid-19 lockdown but Russia hits daily high
Russia recorded its highest daily rise in confirmed Covid-19 cases on Sunday, with 10,633 new cases listed. It brings the overall number to 134,686. A further 58 deaths have been reported by the country’s coronavirus crisis response centre, increasing the total fatalities to 1,280.
Hostile states trying to steal coronavirus research, says UK agency
The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) said the proportion of such targeted cyber-attacks had increased, branding the criminal activity “reprehensible”.
It is understood that nations including Iran and Russia are behind the hacking attempts, while experts have said China is also a likely perpetrator.
North and South Korea exchange gunfire across DMZ at border

Venezuela says eight killed in foiled 'invasion by sea'
Venezuela's government has said it foiled a marine incursion by "terrorist mercenaries" who attempted to enter the country on speedboats from neighbouring Colombia, adding security forces killed eight of the fighters.
The group landed early on Sunday on a beach in the port city of La Guaira, about 20 miles (32km) from the capital Caracas, Interior Minister Nestor Reverol said in a televised address.

Brazil's Bolsonaro rallies the right amid coronavirus criticism
Brazil's right-wing president Jair Bolsonaro attacked Congress and the courts in a speech to hundreds of supporters on Sunday, as the country's known coronavirus cases rose to more than 100,000 underlining the former army captain's increasing isolation over his response to the pandemic.
Bolsonaro has drawn criticism from across the political spectrum for dismissing the threat of the virus in Brazil, which has registered 101,147 confirmed cases and 7,025 deaths, according to the most recent data from the Health Ministry.
North and South Korea 'exchange gunfire across border'
South Korea's military said its troops exchanged fire with North Korea along their tense land border.
The Joint Chiefs of Staff in Seoul said North Korean troops fired several bullets at a South Korean guard post inside the heavily fortified border between the two countries at 7:41 am on Sunday.
The North Koreans apparently fired by accident.

Coronavirus : Donald Trump adopte une ligne dure face à la Chine
Après avoir tergiversé dans ses propos sur le pouvoir chinois, loué dans un premier temps pour sa gestion de l’épidémie de Covid-19, le président des Etats-Unis a changé de ton.
Gilles Paris
L’agence Associated Press a révélé dimanche le contenu d’un rapport interne sévère du département américain à la sécurité intérieure. Ce dernier accuse la Chine d’avoir « masqué intentionnellement la gravité » de la maladie. Il met en cause spécifiquement la dissimulation du blocage des exportations de matériel médical et de l’augmentation des importations de ces mêmes produits.
Cette stratégie s’appuie sur l’évolution de l’opinion publique américaine à l’égard de Pékin. Alors que 43 % des personnes interrogées avaient un jugement « défavorable » à l’égard de la Chine en 2018, 66 % partagent désormais cette opinion selon la dernière édition du baromètre du Pew Research Center publié en avril.
Le Canada interdit les armes d’assaut de type militaire
Après la tuerie de Nouvelle-Ecosse, au cours de laquelle 22 personnes sont mortes mi-avril, le premier ministre Justin Trudeau a acté par décret la prohibition de plusieurs armes.
Hélène Jouan
Car il reste des questions en suspens. Celle de la dangerosité des armes de poing (revolver ou pistolet) non visées par la mesure, et dont la police de Toronto (Ontario) estimait, en décembre 2019, qu’elles étaient responsables de 60 % des crimes commis dans la ville. Celle, surtout, de la procédure de rachat des armes d’assaut ; contrairement à ses engagements de campagne, le gouvernement dit vouloir, dans un projet de loi à venir, laisser le choix aux détenteurs actuels, soit de se faire indemniser en rendant leurs armes, soit de bénéficier d’« un droit acquis » en les conservant.
Au Rwanda, le confinement accélère la livraison de médicaments par drones
La start-up américaine Zipline, à l’origine spécialisée dans le transport de poches de sang, achemine désormais des traitements contre le cancer ou des antipaludéens.
Laure Broulard
Cette pharmacie futuriste est le résultat d’un partenariat entre la start-up américaine Zipline, spécialisée dans la livraison par drone, et l’ONG internationale Partners In Health, qui gère l’un des deux centres de traitement du cancer que compte le pays.
Et alors que les mesures de confinement entravent la circulation partout dans le monde, la start-up, également présente au Ghana, compte bien étendre son marché.

EU leaders to hold coronavirus vaccine virtual fundraising conference
The online fundraiser is projected to raise at least €7.5 billion to develop a vaccine and treatments for the virus. Leaders also said that any potential vaccine should be "available, accessible and affordable to all."
German Health Minister Jens Spahn said on Sunday that it could take years to develop a vaccine. Although there have been a number of promising developments, the production of a safe and effective vaccine remains one of "the most challenging" tasks in medicine, Spahn told ARD broadcaster. The country began human trials on a product last Wednesday, with a small group of 12 participants.

Afghanistan probes Iran border migrant deaths
Iran is denying its border guards beat, tortured and forced Afghan migrants into a river where some drowned. The Afghan government has launched an investigation and promised "necessary" action.
The coronavirus outbreak in Iran saw tens of thousands of Afghan migrants leave and return to their home country. This prompted fears that they could bring the virus back to the war-torn nation, which is ill-equipped to deal with an outbreak.

Record-size ozone hole over Arctic now healed and closed

GE Moves to Cut Roughly 13,000 Aviation Workers
Jet-engine division will cut 25% of staff after coronavirus crippled air travel
By Thomas Gryta
General Electric Co. is cutting roughly 13,000 jobs in its jet-engine business, expanding its planned cost-cutting efforts as the coronavirus pandemic cripples the aviation industry. GE said Monday in a memo to staff that it plans to cut 25% of its global aviation workforce in coming months. The unit, which employed about 52,000 people at the end of 2019, makes engines for Boeing Co. and Airbus SE. Its biggest customers have cut production as airlines ground hundreds of planes.
Auto Sales Are Accelerating, Auto Stocks Might Not
A sales recovery has historically sent a rare buy signal for auto stocks, but history may have moved on
By Stephen Wilmot
April was the worst month for U.S. auto sales since at least the mid-1970s. Investors with an eye for history might paradoxically see that as a rare signal to buy auto stocks. The risk—and it seems an overwhelming one in a world where Tesla’s market value is roughly twice that of the Detroit Three combined—is that the auto industry has entered a new era.
Global Factory Output Plunges, With Slow Rebound Projected
Sharp declines are recorded in India, Italy and elsewhere as the global economy continues to founder
By Paul Hannon and Tom Fairless
Factory output plummeted across Asia and Europe during April, according to surveys of purchasing managers, as efforts to limit the spread of the novel coronavirus dealt a blow to the global economy that has few precedents in its breadth and abruptness. From India and Indonesia in Asia to Poland and Greece in Europe, purchasing managers at manufacturing businesses told data firm IHS Markit the same story: April saw the sharpest fall in output and other measures of activity on record.

Stimulus Spending Emerges as Friction Point in Congress
After acting swiftly to approve $3.5 trillion, lawmakers disagree on how much more is needed
By Kate Davidson and Richard Rubin
After committing trillions of dollars to support the coronavirus-stricken economy, lawmakers are starting to disagree on how much more to spend—and whether pulling back too soon could stunt a recovery. Democrats, who control the House of Representatives, say trillions more will be needed to help states, workers and business contend with a recession that is forecast to be the deepest since the 1930s

AI Software Gets Mixed Reviews for Tackling Coronavirus
Hospitals hope technology can ease pressure on doctors facing the pandemic, but some have noticed errors
By Parmy Olson
Faced with a burgeoning number of Covid-19 patients, hospitals are turning to artificial intelligence to help with diagnoses and assessments. So far, the results are mixed. Several hospitals around the world have started using AI software—which learns from experience—to check lung scans for signs and severity of the disease. Some radiologists have used AI in combination with other signals, like a patient’s oxygen levels, to help doctors make some treatment decisions.
Elon Musk Tweeted That Tesla’s Stock Was Too High. The Market Agreed.
Car maker’s shares fall after comment; asked if tweet was vetted or made in jest, CEO says ‘No’
By Tim Higgins
Tesla Inc. stock fell Friday morning after Chief Executive Elon Musk took to Twitter to say the auto maker’s share price was “too high” in a series of messages he posted on the social-media platform. Mr. Musk’s tweets are only the latest of his missives that have drawn swift reaction from investors. Because of his history on Twitter, he is required by a court settlement to vet any message that might be material to Tesla, though the definition of what exactly must be reviewed has been a subject of dispute.

Violence Mars India’s First Day Out of Tight Virus Lockdown
By Muneeza Naqvi and Bibhudatta Pradhan
Violence and chaos marred India’s first day of freedom from its stringent virus lockdown as migrant workers clashed with police in western India and brawls erupted outside liquor shops in the national capital. The country on Monday partially eased movement curbs across all but the worst infection-hit areas in an attempt to restart its stalled economy. Liquor shops, closed for 40 days under the strict stay-at-home orders, also reopened allowing state governments to earn some much-needed tax revenue.
India Offers Land Twice Luxembourg’s Size to Firms Leaving China

A total area of 461,589 hectares has been identified across the country for the purpose, the people said, asking not to be identified because they aren’t authorized to speak to the media. That includes 115,131 hectares of existing industrial land in states such as Gujarat, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh, they said. Luxembourg is spread across 243,000 hectares, according to the World Bank.

El escándalo convulsiona la política del país. Naciones Unidas condena el uso de la inteligencia militar para vulnerar los derechos humanos de periodistas y políticos
...las carpetas de esa trama de espionaje existen. En ellas figuran perfiles de periodistas, políticos y abogados de los derechos humanos. Y el mero hecho de que alguien en el Ejército ordenara espiar, a través de herramientas informáticas, a decenas de informadores y al secretario de Duque cuestiona los procedimientos de las unidades implicadas.

Venezuela: repelen incursión marítima procedente de Colombia
Desde Caracas. El gobierno venezolano desactivó parte de una operación mercenaria en la madrugada del domingo. Un grupo, del cual aún no se sabe el número exacto de integrantes, intentó ingresar con dos lanchas por la costa de La Guaira, zona marítima más cercana a Caracas. El gobierno informó que ocho personas resultaron fallecidas y dos fueron detenidas.
Diosdado Cabello, presidente de la Asamblea Nacional Constituyente, dio a conocer que la información de la operación había llegado desde Colombia, punto desde el cual partieron las lanchas.
En la acción fueron incautados armamentos de alto calibre, como ametralladoras AFAG, teléfonos satelitales, uniformes y seis vehículos de los cuales dos tenían soporte para las ametralladoras. Ese material estaba “listo para ejecutar acciones sobre instituciones y personalidades”, explicó Cabello.

Un ataque a Cuba en el corazón de Washington
En el saco de José Martí se ve un orificio de bala de fusil AK-47 sobre su lado izquierdo. A 125 años de su caída en combate no es que lo hayan matado dos veces. Es su estatua, ubicada dentro de la embajada cubana en Washington. Tampoco es el único disparo que impactó sobre el frente y el interior de la sede diplomática. Más de treinta balazos dejaron su huella sobre las columnas dóricas, vidrios y paredes del edificio construido en 1917.
El embajador José Ramón Cabañas estuvo el 1° de mayo – fecha emblemática en la isla por sus tradicionales marchas en el día del trabajador – haciendo un control de daños provocado por el ataque de un tal Alexander Alazo. Para más datos cubano y de 42 años, residente en Aubrey, Texas y que pasó por el ejército de su país antes de migrar a México en 2003 y de ahí a EE.UU. en 2007. La información surge del acta que se labró en el lugar. El presidente Miguel Díaz Canel calificó el hecho como “un atentado terrorista, un acto de odio coherente con la hostilidad de la administración estadounidense hacia Cuba”.
