Quick Glance: Senate Passes $95 Billion Aid Package for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan
  • The Senate has passed a $95 billion aid package for war assistance to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan, sending the legislation to President Joe Biden after months of delays and contentious debates over U.S. involvement in foreign wars.

  • The legislation also includes $26 billion for wartime assistance to Israel and humanitarian relief for the citizens of Gaza, along with $8 billion to counter Chinese threats in Taiwan and the Indo-Pacific.

  • Senate Republicans and House Republicans collaborated to secure the aid for Ukraine and Israel, emphasizing the potential dire consequences if Russian President Vladimir Putin's aggression goes unchecked.

  • There was broad congressional support for the aid package, but leaders had to navigate strong opposition from conservatives questioning U.S. involvement in foreign wars and focusing on issues like migration at the U.S.-Mexico border.

No Brit born after 2009 will ever be able to smoke legally, if bill passes
Quick Glance: UK Lawmakers Support Groundbreaking 'Smoke-Free Generation' Bill
  • The British government's plan for a landmark smoking ban to prevent young people from ever smoking passed its first hurdle in Parliament despite opposition from within Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's Conservative Party.

  • The bill, announced by Sunak, would make it illegal to sell tobacco products to anyone born after January 1, 2009, creating one of the toughest anti-smoking measures in the world to establish the 'first smoke-free generation' in modern Britain.

  • The bill also includes measures to crack down on youth vaping, such as banning the sale of cheap disposable vapes and restricting their flavors to prevent children from becoming addicted to nicotine.

  • The number of people who smoke in the U.K. has declined by two-thirds since the 1970s, but approximately 6.4 million people in the country still smoke, accounting for about 13% of the population. Smoking remains the number one preventable cause of death, disability, and poor health.

Tesla cuts prices in China, Germany and around globe after US
Quick Glance: Tesla cuts prices in US, China and Germany as competition intensifies
  • Tesla has announced aggressive price cuts in China and Germany, shortly after reducing prices in the United States, as the world’s largest maker of electric vehicles (EV) faces declining sales and growing competition in major markets.

  • The prices of four models were slashed in China by 14,000 yuan ($1,932), while in Germany, the price of the Model 3 rear-wheel drive was lowered by 2,000 euros ($2,132). Earlier cuts were made in the US, with prices of three models reduced, while prices for the Model 3 and Cybertruck remained unchanged.

  • The price cuts come during a tough time for Tesla, with a significant stock plunge and a drop in quarterly deliveries. Elon Musk postponed his planned India trip due to company obligations. In China, Tesla's price cuts escalate an existing price war in a highly competitive sector influenced by other manufacturers like BYD offering more affordable options.

  • The price wars in China began in 2022 and continue with over 30 car makers announcing further price reductions, impacting the entire auto industry's profit margins. Competitors like BYD and XPeng are also offering subsidies and lowering prices to attract buyers in the EV market, posing challenges to Tesla's market dominance.
