Quick Glance: Trump Accused of Trying to 'Corrupt' 2016 Election in Hush-Money Trial

A prosecutor alleged that Donald Trump tried to illegally influence the 2016 presidential election by preventing damaging stories about his personal life from becoming public.

The defense argued that Trump was 'innocent' and attacked the integrity of the former Trump confidant who is now the government's star witness.

The opening statements provided the 12-person jury and the public with a roadmap to understand the allegations in the case and Trump's expected defenses.

Prosecutors emphasized the gravity of the case by framing it as about election interference and sought to address criticism that the case lacks the grievous allegations present in Trump's other three cases.

Netanyahu too ‘busy’ to talk to Sunak after RAF helped repel Iranian attack: Israeli leader faces domestic pressure to rebuff international calls for restraint

ft.com/content/db147abd-4c1e-48ac-9d07-280ec583c526

Quick Glance: Netanyahu's Busy Schedule Hinders Communication with Sunak Post-RAF Assistance Against Iranian Attack

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has not yet managed to engage in a conversation with UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak following the assistance provided by Royal Air Force warplanes in defending the Jewish state from an Iranian aerial assault.

Efforts are still underway to arrange a discussion between the two leaders, as Netanyahu is under significant domestic pressure to reject calls from the UK, the US, and the EU for restraint after Iran's attack.

Sunak stated in the House of Commons on Monday that the UK is urgently collaborating with allies to de-escalate the situation and prevent further bloodshed, mentioning that he will communicate with Netanyahu 'shortly'.

With Netanyahu's right-wing coalition partners pushing for substantial retaliation against Iran, Israel's western allies are advocating for caution and restraint to prevent a regional conflict.

Quick Glance: Mark Menzies: MP Accused of Campaign Fund Misuse, Party Exit, and Future Election Abstention

An elected official accused of mishandling campaign funds has departed from the Conservative Party and declared no intention to participate in the upcoming general election.

Following allegations reported in The Times, Mark Menzies revealed his decision after purportedly using political contributions to address medical costs and settle debts incurred from being confined by individuals demanding a substantial ransom for his release.

Upon a request for scrutiny by Labour, Lancashire Police disclosed their evaluation of 'details' concerning Mr. Menzies. An internal inquiry by the Conservative Party has been initiated to explore potential improprieties in the utilization of their financial resources.

Additionally, the party's internal oversight body will assess whether Mr. Menzies' conduct contravened the Nolan principles of public ethics, encompassing traits like altruism, probity, and candor. The spokesperson affirmed, 'We are prepared to collaborate with law enforcement, if they deem our insights beneficial to any inquiry they opt to conduct.'

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.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle could find themselves in a complicated situation, according to an expert, if King Charles invites them to join the Royal Family at Balmoral.

It is expected that King Charles will extend an invitation to Harry and Meghan to visit the Scottish retreat this year, as it is customary for the monarch to invite family members during the holiday season.

Royal expert and author Tom Quinn suggests that an invitation to the retreat could present a 'difficult' situation for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

King Charles has reportedly extended an olive branch to Prince Harry and Meghan by 'hinting' at a visit to Balmoral this summer to improve relationships within the Royal family.

Quick Glance: Cabinet Revolt Looms Over Rishi Sunak's ECHR Exit

According to reports by The Times, Rishi Sunak would face opposition from at least 12 cabinet ministers if he decides to leave the European Convention on Human Rights.

It is understood that Jeremy Hunt, the chancellor, James Cleverly, the home secretary, Alex Chalk, the justice secretary, and Chris Heaton-Harris, the Northern Ireland secretary, are among those against leaving the convention.

Following a significant ruling by the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg on Tuesday that governments have a duty to protect people from climate change, there is a growing sentiment among Conservative MPs to withdraw from the ECHR.

Last week, Sunak issued a threat to exit the ECHR if flights to Rwanda are not resumed.

Quick Glance: IMF upgrades global growth forecast despite risks

The International Monetary Fund slightly raised its global growth forecast on Tuesday, noting that the economy had proven 'surprisingly resilient' despite inflationary pressures and monetary policy shifts.

IMF's chief economist, Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas, indicated that the global economy is heading for a 'soft landing,' with risks to the outlook now broadly balanced.

While advanced economies are expected to lead the growth, dim prospects in China and other major emerging markets could impact global trade partners, according to the report.

Despite Tuesday's brighter outlook, global growth remains low compared to historical standards, partly due to weak productivity growth and increasing geopolitical fragmentation.
