What is global news?

Something that happened or was uncovered recently anywhere in the world. It doesn't have to have global implications. Just has to be informative in some way.


Post guidelines

Title formatPost title should mirror the news source title.
URL formatPost URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefixOpinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title.
Country prefixCountry prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) where title is not clear enough from which country the news is coming from.

Truly incredible. In less than two months, trump has managed to severely damage one of the last manufacturing industries left in the US.

I wonder who is offering the best sub. The French nuclear one does sound appealing what with the arctic being ours.

But having navy guys take care of it doesn’t.

Honestly, it's probably time for Canada to step up. They don't need to dedicate half their taxes to defense but it's probably not a bad idea for them to be able to protect themselves.
