With Court Prize in Sight, Republicans Unite Behind Trump Once Again
WASHINGTON — Senator Mitt Romney of Utah said on Tuesday that he would back President Trump’s push to fill the Supreme Court seat vacated by the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, cementing all but monolithic Republican support six weeks before the presidential election for confirming a new justice who would tilt the court decisively to the right.

Trump’s aggressive anti-China rant reminds the world why the UN was first established – to prevent future wars
Trump’s UN speech bristled with perceived grievances and China bashing. He also boasted of the US “fulfilling our destiny of peacemaker” with the world’s greatest military. Peace, that is, down the barrel of an American gun.

Palestine has quit its current chairmanship of Arab League meetings, the Palestinian foreign minister said on Tuesday, condemning as dishonourable any Arab agreement to establish formal ties with Israel.

Coronavirus pandemic has wiped out $3.5tn in work income, says ILO
The economic fallout from the coronavirus pandemic has wiped out $3.5tn (£2.75tn) of earnings for millions of people around the world, according to the UN’s labour body.
The International Labour Organization (ILO) said income from work declined by an estimated 10.7% in the first three-quarters of 2020 compared with the same period in 2019.
Income from work fell 15.1% in lower to middle-income countries, such as Bangladesh, Cambodia, Nigeria and Ukraine. In regional terms, the Americas had the biggest decline, down 12.1%.
Aid agencies warn of Covid-19 crisis in refugee camps as winter approaches
Throughout the coronavirus pandemic an abiding fear had stalked the world’s most vulnerable populations. Millions of people displaced by conflict in the Middle East watched with alarm as Europe and the west withered under a caseload that stretched first-world healthcare systems to their limits. They saw field hospitals being set up in capitals. Governments buckling under the strain. The developing world offering aid to the developed.
Mexico's drug war leaves 39,000 unidentified bodies in its morgues
Mexico’s militarised crackdown on organised crime has left nearly 39,000 unidentified bodies in the country’s morgues, which are often unable to handle the volume of corpses brought in for autopsies.
A new investigation by the investigative NGO Quinto Elemento Labs found that an alarming number of people were simply buried in common graves without proper postmortems. Some were left in funeral homes and more than 2,500 bodies were given to medical schools.
Mexico’s militarised war on drugs has claimed nearly 300,000 lives over the past 14 years. Another 73,000 persons have gone missing – with their families often left to search for their loved ones unassisted by the authorities.
China pledges to become carbon neutral before 2060
“China will scale up its intended nationally determined contributions [under the Paris climate agreement] by adopting more vigorous policies and measures,” the Chinese president said, calling for a “green recovery” from the coronavirus pandemic.
The unexpectedly forthright commitment will give fresh impetus to the UN’s efforts to galvanise action on the climate crisis, which has been flagging as the coronavirus has wreaked havoc on the world’s societies and economies this year.

Qualcomm may be next to get permission to supply Huawei: analysts
Qualcomm may become the next company after Intel and Advanced Micro Devices Inc (AMD) to obtain a license from the US government to continue supplying some products to Huawei, considering the US semiconductor maker's huge investment in lobbying and the negative impact on its revenue, but any approval may come after the US presidential election in November, analysts said.
As most chipmakers filed applications with the US Department of Commerce just ahead of the chip ban deadline, the chances that they could receive licenses prior to the US presidential election are "very slim," Fu predicted.
"But in the short term, the impact on Huawei's mobile business is limited as the company has stockpiled about half a year's worth of crucial chips," Fu said.

Xi's remarks at UN high-level meeting send 'another stern message opposing US unilateralism, hegemony'
Chinese President Xi Jinping's remarks at a high-level UN meeting on Monday, which stressed that "No country has the right to dominate global affairs, control the destiny of others, or keep advantages in development all to itself," sent a strong warning against US hegemony and bullying practices that threaten to upend the world order and stability, observers said on Tuesday.
In his speech at a high-level meeting to mark the 75th anniversary of the founding of the United Nations on Monday, Xi noted that the UN must stand firm for justice, uphold the rule of law, promote cooperation and focus on real action.
Cold War mentality, ideological lines or zero-sum games are no solution to a country's problems, still less an answer to mankind's common challenges, Xi noted.

Chinese COVID-19 vaccine producers speed up clinical trials
Chinese vaccine producers are accelerating clinical trials for COVID-19 vaccine candidates and preparing for full-speed production once a product is approved to enter the market.
A phase III clinical trial project on a COVID-19 vaccine jointly developed by Chinese company CanSino Biologics Inc (CanSinoBIO) and military infectious expert Chen Wei was launched on Tuesday in Pakistan, following another phase III clinical trial on the vaccine starting in Russia, the Global Times learned from the company.
According to Pakistan newspaper Dawn, around 8,000 to 10,000 volunteers in the country will participate in the project and initial results of the trial are expected in four to six months. Meanwhile, clinical trials on the CanSinoBIO vaccine are being held in seven countries, including Pakistan, covering a total of 40,000 people.

Xi reaffirms COVID-19 pledges at UN assembly
In the speech, Trump told the United Nations General Assembly to "hold China accountable for their actions" related to the coronavirus pandemic, and accused the Chinese government and the World Health Organization (WHO), which he said is virtually controlled by China, of falsely declaring that there was no evidence of human-to-human transmission. On the same day, the US just topped 200,000 COVID-19 deaths in less than 8 months.
Xi stressed WHO's leading role in the global fight against COVID-19, and any attempt to politicize the COVID-19 pandemic or stigmatization must be rejected, which has been frequently mentioned by officials, scientists and experts from all over the world.

Avec son projet de « pacte pour la migration », l’Union européenne relance les débats sur les réfugiés
Le texte présenté mercredi à Bruxelles entend surmonter les divisions apparues depuis 2015 entre les pays membres et trouver un compromis entre contrôle et solidarité.
A tous, la Commission propose, en tout cas, un objectif unanimement partagé : une meilleure gestion des frontières extérieures. Les procédures actuelles – notamment les prises d’empreintes et leur inclusion dans le fichier Eurodac – sont lentes et pas toujours uniformisées. Bruxelles entend imposer une période maximale de cinq jours pour l’examen de l’identité et de la santé d’un demandeur d’asile, ainsi que d’aspects sécuritaires éventuels. En fonction des législations nationales, cet examen pourrait être couplé à une garde à vue.
Affrontement entre la Chine et les Etats-Unis à la tribune virtuelle de l’ONU
Le président chinois, Xi Jinping, a dénoncé, mardi, le repli sur soi prôné par son homologue américain, Donald Trump.
Tentant plus que jamais de profiter du retrait des Etats-Unis justifié par Donald Trump au nom de « l’Amérique d’abord », Xi Jinping s’est posé en protecteur de l’ONU, profitant de l’occasion pour annoncer de nouvelles contributions financières de son pays. Il a promis que la Chine parviendrait à la neutralité carbone en 2060, un hommage concret à l’accord de Paris auquel Donald Trump a tourné le dos. Présentant la Chine comme une des « économies principales » qui aidera les autres pays en développement, il a dressé un portrait particulièrement flatteur du soft power chinois.

Peu avant, dans son discours vidéo diffusé lors de l’Assemblée générale de l’ONU, Emmanuel Macron avait tenu des propos modérés au sujet de la Turquie, plus lisses que ne le prévoyait une version de travail précédente du texte. « Les insultes sont inopérantes », a simplement souligné le président français, au sujet des attaques personnelles régulièrement lancées par son homologue turc. M. Macron a rappelé les principes « non négociables » de l’UE : le respect de la souveraineté européenne, le droit international, la nécessaire clarification des actions turques en Libye et en Syrie.

La UE presenta la esperada reforma de política migratoria y de asilo
Dos semanas después del incendio que arrasó el campo de refugiados de Moria, en Grecia, un hecho considerado símbolo del fracaso europeo en materia migratoria, la UE presenta este miércoles un nuevo y esperado plan.

Peak Oil Is Already Shifting Markets
Prospect of falling demand for crude could unleash a long-term scramble between rival producer nations
After decades of relative maturity, the oil market might be about to enter a second childhood.
Although there is little consensus on the timing, most expect demand for crude to top out in the coming years—if it hasn’t already. Oil giant BP argues 2019 might be the peak. Others expect the decline to begin in the mid-2020s, or even as late as the mid-2030s.
TikTok’s Zero Hour: Haggling With Trump, Doubts in China and a Deal in Limbo
The weekend agreement to keep the app alive in the U.S.—an M&A deal like no other—remains uncertain
After months of maneuvering over the future of TikTok, it took a pair of 11th-hour phone calls with two of America’s most powerful executives to persuade President Trump to agree to a tentative deal.
Key to getting the president on board with the idea, which involved Oracle Corp. and Walmart Inc. taking stakes in a new TikTok based in the U.S., was a thinly sketched-out plan to create a $5 billion education fund, described by people involved as a gesture to placate Mr. Trump. The provision came so late that when it was announced, TikTok and its Chinese parent company weren’t aware it was part of the plan.

China Threatens to Kill TikTok Deal Over ‘Dirty’ Trump Tactics
Bloomberg News
Just a few days ago, the TikTok deal looked like a win for China. Now its state-run media are denouncing it as “an American trap” and a “dirty and underhanded trick.” The quick shift in sentiment shows the complications of concluding an agreement that is about much more than finding a proper valuation for an addictive video app that has enthralled teenagers around the world. It also has big ramifications for how the world’s biggest economies handle security threats related to new technologies that will drive growth over the next few decades.
