       From FRANCE- Discussions of Trump's first 100 days dominated the international press this week. First press reviews from Europe, the Middle East, and Asia on the effects Trump is having on international security, global economics, and changes in the world order. Then press on the tension between India and Pakistan, with the Indian Navy test firing missiles and Pakistan saying it has missiles targeting Indian nuclear weapons. Then an interview with Avril Benoit, executive Director of Doctors Without Borders USA on the effect of US cuts to USAID- she points out that medical and health services have been completely vanished by the cuts to many organizations in the third world, calling it a human made disaster. Doctors without borders receives no funding from the US, depending on donations, and that they are attempting to lessen the dire problems arising from the cuts to many aid providers around the globe.
 
       From GERMANY- The victory of Mark Carney as the Prime Minister in Canada came in the face of threats by Trump to Canadian sovereignty, resulting in a more unified nation. An interview with Janelle Dumalaon about the feeling among Canadians and the positive response from European leaders.
 

       From JAPAN-  Delegates from the US, Russia, and China fought at a UN nuclear disarmament meeting. The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute pointed out a nearly 10% increase in global military spending last year.

"People are beginning to become disturbingly comfortable with a kind of official hypocrisy. Bizarrely, for instance, we've become numb to the idea that rights aren't absolute but are enjoyed on a kind of sliding scale."
