On June 2, a few days before the California primary, Hillary Clinton gave up trying to compete with Bernie Sanders on domestic policy. Instead, she zeroed in on the soft target of Donald Trump’s most “bizarre rants” in order to present herself as experienced and reasonable.

Moscow and Ankara are not responsible for starting the conflict which has ravaged Libya, but they may have a decisive role in ending it, as they lead international diplomatic efforts at the Berlin peace conference.

Britain’s stunning referendum vote to leave the European Union has thrown a cat among the pigeons, not least in Washington, where it is feared that the “Brexit” could scupper its anti-Russian policy.

The scrapping by the Philippines of a military partnership with the US occurs with rather embarrassing timing for Washington, as it seeks to rally its allies to adopt America’s hostile line towards China.

The internal struggle between America's party of war, represented by "supreme hawk" Hillary Clinton, and its opponents is going on in Washington.

The coronavirus crisis is demonstrating why it’s time we replaced a system that exists purely for profits with one that puts public health first. When it comes to the number of Covid-19 cases and deaths, the United States is off the charts compared to other countries.
