In 2015, hearing Trump, as a candidate for president, echo Castro’s talking points, Rodriguez felt the need to sound the alarm. He published drawings online and shared them on social media, hoping that magazines or newspapers would pick them up. “Edel is one of the very few artists who brilliantly manage to simplify complicated matters while never drifting into clichés,” Brinkbäumer said. When Rodriguez sent Der Spiegel a draft of a cover featuring Trump as a meteorite headed toward Earth shortly after his victory in 2016, Brinkbäumer published it unchanged. Life, politics and procrastination, Rodriguez said, slowed the inside of the book from taking shape.

Many organisers choose to buy that cover through an add-on political violence and terrorism policy. Insurers cannot change policy wordings of existing policies, so any event organisers who bought political violence cover and cancelled after the conflict started on Oct 7 should be covered. Insurers are also considering restricting cover for event cancellations outside the region, the sources added. Ryan at Marsh said some political violence insurers were proposing wordings which would allow them to break or review policies due to "conditions relating to armed involvement in the 2023 Israel war". Specialist political violence policies are typically offered by firms operating in the Lloyd's of London (SOLYD.UL) insurance market, as well as by U.S. insurers.

In response, they adopted a tragic sensibility. You can try to avoid thinking about the dark realities of life and naïvely wish that bad things won’t happen. Or you can confront these realities and develop a tragic mentality to help you thrive among them. This tragic sensibility prepares you for the rigors of life in concrete ways. Third, this tragic mentality encourages caution.

President Biden and Prime Minister Anthony Albanese of Australia expressed their shared condemnation of the Hamas attack this month on Israeli civilians and soldiers, saying during a state visit on Wednesday that they would stand with Israel. In recent months, the Australians have accelerated efforts to supply missiles for the United States and expand joint military cooperation and training between the two countries. At one point, Mr. Albanese invoked the words of Mr. Biden’s late son, Beau, to emphasize the strength of their partnership: “When there’s an Australian with you, they’ll always have your back.” Mr. Biden bowed his head. The Biden administration is relying on Congress to pass legislation that would allow for the shipment of nuclear-powered submarines to Australia, as part of an agreement called AUKUS among the United States, Britain and Australia. U.S. officials said before the visit that Mr. Biden would tell the prime minister that the United States would fulfill that promise.

The collaboration, which also involves the United Kingdom, is known as AUKUS, an acronym for the three countries' names. “State visits are a big deal," said Charles Edel, a senior adviser and Australia chair at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington. The day's events end with a state dinner in a pavilion erected on the South Lawn of the White House. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said there's “no more important time than now” to hold the state visit to demonstrate the strength of the U.S. relationship with Australia. Biden wants $3.4 billion to expand naval production facilities to help provide Australia with the nuclear-powered submarines.

„Noi zori pentru America”, scrie ziarul britanic The Independent, evidenţiind reuşita lui Harris, prima femeie care accede la funcţia de vicepreşedinte al SUA. „Joe adormitul trezeşte America”, ironizează Sunday Times, o aluzie la porecla pe care i-a dat-o Donald Trump contracandidatului său democrat în timpul campaniei electorale. Joe Biden „pune capăt celor patru ani de guvernare haotică a lui Donald Trump”, adaugă ziarul citat. Joe Biden moşteneşte o povară grea, ca niciunul dintre predecesorii săi: trebuie să unească America”, a comentat cotidianul german de stânga, Süddeutsche Zeitung. „Joe Biden va trebui să găsească rapid răspunsuri la ameninţările care planează asupra economiei şi la pericolul acut al pandemiei.
