Keeping track of current events has never been more important. It’s essential to stay informed about what’s going on in the world around us, and that includes both local news and international events. The following is a roundup of daily global news from the past 24 hours, providing insight into some of the most important stories from around the world.
North Korea Launches New Missile Test
North Korea launched two short-range ballistic missiles early this morning, according to South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff. The missiles were fired from an area north of Pyongyang and flew for about 270 miles before landing in the sea between North Korea and Japan. This marks the sixth missile test conducted by North Korea since July 25th, and it appears as though Kim Jong Un is looking to gain leverage ahead of planned negotiations with President Trump over his country’s nuclear weapons program.
U.S.-China Trade Talks Resume in Washington
The U.S.-China trade talks resumed today in Washington amid growing tensions between the two countries over trade policies and tariffs. The two sides have been locked in a trade dispute for months now, with both sides imposing tariffs on each other’s imports as a way to pressure one another into making concessions on key issues. China has accused the U.S. of using “unilateralism” and “protectionism” while U.S. officials have accused China of unfair trade practices and intellectual property theft. It remains unclear if any progress will be made during these talks or if they will result in more acrimony between the two nations.
Venezuela Expels German Ambassador
The Venezuelan government expelled German ambassador Daniel Kriener today after he attended a protest supporting opposition leader Juan Guaido last week without permission from President Nicolas Maduro’s government first seeking it out first even though diplomats are generally granted diplomatic immunity under international law when traveling outside their home countries for official business . This comes as Maduro continues to crack down on dissent within his country, which is facing an economic crisis due to hyperinflation, shortages of food and medicine, political unrest, and financial sanctions imposed by foreign governments including those led by former president Donald Trump . Germany has vowed to respond harshly against Maduro’s action if he does not allow Kriener back into Venezuela soon .
