(CNN) — The United States is bracing for the expiration of a pandemic-era border restriction this week, with officials fearing it will spur a surge of migrants and exacerbate an already challenginghumanitarian crisis at the southern border.“No matter how much we are prepared, I don’t think we are going to be prepared enough,” John Martin, deputy director of the Opportunity Center for the Homeless in El Paso, Texas, told CNN on Sunday, days before the lifting of Title 42, a Trump-erapolicy that allowed the government to quickly turn away certain migrants at the border, originally with the aim of stopping the spread of Covid-19.“I wanted to emphasize more so than anything else at this point — this is a national issue,” Martin said. “We in El Paso, along with many other communities along the southern border, just happened to be at the front doorstep.”While first implemented under the Trump administration as a response to the pandemi...UK’s Liz Truss heads to Taiwan after string of hawkish China speeches
Published Sun, 29 Dec 2024 15:19:56 GMT
LONDON — Former British Prime Minister Liz Truss will visit Taiwan next week as she continues a hawkish post-premiership streak on China.Truss, whose turbulent administration collapsed after just 49 days last year, will “deliver a keynote speech and is expected to meet senior members of the Taiwanese government,” her spokesperson said Tuesday.The trip takes her to the site of a key flashpoint in China’s relationship with the West. China claims the self-governing Taiwan as its territory, but the U.S. has promised to arm and defend the island.Truss has repeatedly made her views on Taiwan clear. She said last month that the West “should be doing all we can to make sure Taiwan has the support it needs to defend itself,” and took a direct swipe at French President Emmanuel Macron for warning in an interview with POLITICO that Europeans must not “become followers” of the U.S. on the issue.In remarks briefed out ahead of the visit, Truss said: “Tai...UN rules useless against China’s forced labor, research shows

The EU’s trade gurus, confronted with concerns over whether Chinese cotton or solar panels are being produced with Uyghur Muslim forced labor, have long turned to the International Labour Organization (ILO) guidelines for reference, adopting its rules while urging Beijing to ratify and observe them.Except they might not be that effective in this case.In a new research paper previewed by POLITICO, Adrian Zenz, a leading scholar on Beijing’s repressive policies, casts doubt on the applicability of these rules by the ILO, a U.N. agency, arguing they were mainly drawn up to tackle commercially — not politically — driven exploitation.In other words, Beijing is not looking for cheap labor when its local officials in Xinjiang arrange for Uyghurs to go to work. Instead, it is a top-down political campaign to make these Uyghurs, collectively presumed by the state to be potential secessionists and terrorists, submit to Communist Party rule.That, according to Zenz, a scholar at the...Police: Arrest made in deadly stabbing at Chelsea apartment building

An arrest has been made in connection with a deadly stabbing at a Chelsea apartment building, according to police.A spokesperson for the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office said a woman was found with multiple stab sounds at a building on Lafayette Avenue. A 7NEWS source said the woman was later taken by ambulance to a local hospital and did not survive.Initially called to the address around 10 a.m., police could be seen going in and out throughout the day, taking photos and gathering evidence.Detectives also talked to residents and neighbors.The building where the woman was found sits up on a hill overlooking the Boston skyline. It is normally quiet and peaceful, according to residents.“You barely see people in there,” said area resident Deolinda Brito. “It’s really nice.”“I just moved here in September and I was remarking to the people I work with how I love my building,” said Pamela Rivera. “I love my apartment. It was so quiet, clean, I never hear any noise.” Detectiv...Crews battle house fire in Lowell

One way or the other, this ongoing stretch was always going to set the tone for the rest of the season.Coming out of their last off day on April 27 the Red Sox were 13-13 and looking at a daunting 12-game stretch, with series against the Cleveland Guardians (reigning AL Central champs), Toronto Blue Jays (who owned Boston last year), Philadelphia Phillies (last fall’s World Series runner-ups) and Atlanta Braves (perennial title contenders). It wasn’t hard to imagine the Red Sox losing all four series and looking up at the end five or six games under .500 and well behind the pack in the playoff hunt.Instead the Red Sox won the first three series, ripped off an eight-game winning streak and now head to Atlanta as one of the best teams in baseball.Even the biggest optimist couldn’t have predicted things would be going this well. After going 8-2 over their past three series the Red Sox are now 21-15 and entered Monday with a 1.5-game lead for the third American League ...Latest news
