This is the shortest column I’ve ever written — because it doesn’t take long to get things in focus:President Biden, you are meeting Wednesday with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, for the first time since he returned to office in December. I hope you won’t proceed without getting satisfactory answers from Netanyahu on three key questions — so we know just what Israel, and just which Bibi, we’re dealing with:1. Do you intend to annex the West Bank, or will you negotiate its future disposition with the Palestinians? Iran, meanwhile, moved in with a diplomatic offensive, patching up its ties with all your Arab neighbors and eating your lunch. Prime Minister, the Saudis are ready to do something hard — normalize relations with Israel.

On Monday, the UAW held talks with Stellantis though no deal was reached. About 12,700 UAW workers are on strike as part of a labor action targeting three U.S. assembly plants - one at each of the Detroit Three - after the prior four-year labor agreements expired. He said the UAW is ready to do what was necessary when asked whether it would extend the strike to other plants this week. Ford has an assembly plant and two engine plants in Canada with a total of about 5,000 union workers. Shares of BlueScope Steel (BSL.AX) slipped to an over three-month low as the strike weighs on its North American business.

Ford Motor could face a strike in Canada if no agreement is reached by 11:59 p.m. Monday with the union representing about 5,600 Canadian auto workers, just days after workers at one of its U.S. plants went on strike. On Friday, the United Auto Workers union launched a targeted strike against Ford, General Motors and Chrysler-parent Stellantis , targeting one assembly plant at each company. Canadian union Unifor, whose contract with Ford expires at 11:59 p.m. Monday, said "while we remain at the table the likelihood of a strike increases with each passing hour." Ford has two engine plants in Canada that build V-8 motors for F-series and Super Duty pickups assembled in the United States. Ford on Friday furloughed 600 workers who are not on strike at the Michigan Bronco plant because of the impact of the work stoppage.

Sept 13 (Reuters) - England bowling all-rounder David Willey said he is ready to do the "donkey" work if it will help him secure a place in the squad for the upcoming Cricket World Cup after missing out on the last edition. Willey had been in the running for England's 2019 World Cup squad but was ditched to make way for Barbados-born fast bowler Jofra Archer. I'd have given my left arm to be a part of the last World Cup. Willey has managed to stay injury-free for much of his career and said his robustness could be crucial for England over the six-week tournament. "Call me a donkey if you want, but to take a donkey out to what could be a tough trip, you just might need a donkey," he said.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has been promoting the company's long-delayed, sci-fi inspired Cybertruck on social media this week. The company also said in a shareholder deck that it was "working on equipment installation for Cybertruck production, which remains on track for initial deliveries this year." On Wednesday, Musk shared a post on X, formerly Twitter, with an image of the Cybertruck, saying, "Just drove the production candidate Cybertruck at Tesla Giga Texas!" Musk also sent an email to "everybody" at Tesla on Wednesday about the Cybertruck and the challenges of producing the vehicle. What Musk said in the email implies that Tesla is still struggling with Cybertruck quality.

The UAW president has rattled automakers with combative rhetoric, delivered via Facebook Live videos, including one where he threw contract proposals from Stellantis into a trash can. U.S. President Joe Biden on Monday urged the automakers and the union to come to a "fair agreement." The three automakers have signaled such a move would add billions in liabilities and make their unionized U.S. operations uncompetitive. Fain said the union's analysis concluded that the automakers could fund defined-benefit plans for roughly the same cost as current 401(k) savings plans. Walkouts at the Detroit Three could benefit Tesla (TSLA.O) and other non-union automakers including Toyota Motor (7203.T), Honda Motor (7267.T), Nissan Motor (7201.T) and Hyundai Motor (005380.KS), Anderson said.

It is the biggest what-if of the latest indictment of Donald Trump: What if Republican leaders in Congress had supported impeaching Trump and barring him from holding future office as punishment for his role in the Jan. 6 attack? Soon, though, Republican leaders changed their minds. They feared that banning Trump from future office would anger their own voters. There was little question that members of Congress had the authority to ban Trump permanently from federal office. But once they chose not to do so, the legal consequences for Trump’s actions became much murkier.

ANKARA, June 24 (Reuters) - President Tayyip Erdogan spoke by telephone with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin on Saturday and urged him to act with common sense, the Turkish presidency said, after Russian mercenary fighters began an armed mutiny overnight. Erdogan was among the first leaders to hold a phone call with Putin after his speech on Saturday. The Turkish presidency said the two discussed recent developments in Russia and Erdogan told Putin that Turkey was ready to do its part to help bring about a peaceful resolution. The Kremlin said in a separate statement that Erdogan had backed the Russian government's handling of the mutiny during the conversation with Putin. Erdogan has sought to maintain strong ties with both Moscow and Kyiv since the start of the conflict in Ukraine.
