Your World.
Bold & Bright

Start your day smarter with a dossier on the most important world news, rounded
off with a shot of intriguing and offbeat stories. Like the president, you
deserve no less.

May 20, 2022


TODAY

Biden will have to tread a fine line on his first trip to Asia as president.
Zelenskyy accused Russia of turning Ukraine’s eastern Donbas region into “hell.”
Oklahoma state legislators passed an anti-abortion bill that, if it becomes law,
will be the strictest in the country. And the U.S. accused Russia of “using food
as a weapon.” All this and more in today’s PDB.





IMPORTANT

Biden in Asia

MAKING FRIENDS AND INFLUENCING PEOPLE TOPS THE AGENDA

To say that President Joe Biden’s first trip to Asia as commander in chief comes
at a sensitive time is a massive understatement. Not only is it hoped that he’ll
mend the relationship between South Korea and Japan — important U.S. allies who
haven’t been seeing eye-to-eye — but he’ll probably have to contend with a North
Korean nuclear missile test while in Seoul. Biden won’t visit China, but his
presence at Tuesday’s meeting of The Quad, a fledgling partnership between the
U.S., Japan, India and Australia, should send a clear message to Beijing that it
can’t call all the shots in Asia. (Sources: AP, Reuters, Time)

Living ‘Hell’

ZELENSKYY SAYS RUSSIAN FORCES HAVE ‘COMPLETELY DESTROYED’ DONBAS

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy accused Russia of turning Ukraine’s eastern Donbas
region into “hell … and that is not an exaggeration.” He added that Russia’s
behavior had no “military explanation” and was instead “a deliberate and
criminal attempt to kill as many Ukrainians as possible. Destroy as many houses,
social facilities and enterprises as possible.” Meanwhile, a New York Times
investigation used video and drone footage to piece together the execution of
eight men at the hands of Russian paratroopers in Bucha on March 4. And the U.S.
Senate voted 86-11 to release $40 billion in aid to Ukraine. (Sources: BBC, NYT,
CNN)

Not OK

OKLAHOMA PASSES BILL BANNING ALMOST ALL ABORTIONS

The state Legislature passed — by 73 votes to 16 — a bill that prohibits nearly
all abortions from the moment of fertilization, with the only exceptions being
for some cases of rape and incest. It also allows individuals to sue anyone who
“aids or abets” an abortion. While the bill must still be signed into law,
Republican anti-abortion campaigner Gov. Kevin Stitt is likely to jump at the
opportunity. “There can be nothing higher or more critical than the defense of
innocent, unborn life,” said Republican Rep. Jim Olsen. Democratic Rep. Trish
Ranson, one of the 16 naysayers, said the bill “draws the worst of us together.”
(Source: NYT)

Not Blinken

US ACCUSES RUSSIA OF HOLDING WORLD FOOD SUPPLY HOSTAGE

Secretary of State Antony Blinken demanded that Russia reopen the global flow of
food and fertilizer by lifting its blockade of Ukraine’s Black Sea ports. Russia
and Ukraine produce 30% of the world’s wheat. “The Russian government seems to
think that using food as a weapon will help accomplish what its invasion has not
— to break the spirit of the Ukrainian people,” he said. Former Russian
President Dmitry Medvedev fired back: “On the one hand, insane sanctions are
being imposed against us, on the other hand, they are demanding food supplies.
Things don’t work like that, we’re not idiots.” (Source: The Guardian)

Briefly

HERE ARE SOME THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT TODAY: 

“Bulldozer” vs. “Builder.” Australia will choose between Labor challenger
Anthony Albanese and Liberal incumbent Scott Morrison. Labor leads in the polls
— but it also did in 2019, and ended up losing. (Source: The Guardian) Desperate
times. Sri Lankan authorities closed schools and urged civil servants to work
from home in a bid to alleviate the acute nationwide fuel shortage. (Source:
NPR) Urine trouble. A white law student at South Africa’s Stellenbosch
University is being criminally investigated after he was filmed urinating on the
belongings of a Black dorm resident. (Source: News 24)





INTRIGUING

Pee-Mail

DOLPHINS RECOGNIZE EACH OTHER FROM THE TASTE OF THEIR URINE

It takes all sorts. Researchers at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland
have discovered that dolphins can recognize friends and family members by
tasting their urine and other excretions. Vincent Janik, director of the
Scottish Oceans Institute and co-author of the study published this week, said:
“Dolphins explored urine samples for longer if they came from known animals or
when they were presented together with the dolphin’s unique and distinctive
signature whistle, an acoustic identifier that works like a name.” Researchers
believe that dolphins — which have unusual sensory cells on their tongues —
experience taste differently from other mammals. (Source: The Guardian)

‘A Hint of Freedom’

FINNISH BREWERY LAUNCHES NATO-THEMED BEER

A brewery in the town of Savonlinna near Finland’s border with Russia
commemorated Finland’s bid to join NATO with a special brew. Olaf Brewing’s OTAN
lager features a smiling, beer-drinking knight clad in armor emblazoned with
NATO’s compass symbol. The name is a play on the Finnish phrase “Otan olutta,”
which means “I’ll have a beer,” and the French acronym for NATO. CEO Petteri
Vanttinen said the new brew boasts “a taste of security, with a hint of
freedom.” The brewery takes its name from Savonlinna’s St. Olaf’s Castle, which
withstood several Russian sieges in the 15th and 16th centuries. (Source: AP)

Monkey Business

US REPORTS FIRST MONKEYPOX CASE AS EUROPE’S OUTBREAK GROWS

A Massachusetts man has tested positive for monkeypox, a non-deadly disease that
causes swelling and rashes and is most common in West and Central Africa —
although there have been outbreaks elsewhere. The current outbreak was first
identified in the U.K. and cases have been confirmed in Portugal and Spain. Most
of the new cases seem to be among men who have sex with men, although Maria van
Kerkhove of the World Health Organization added that this could be because
“we’re finding where we’re looking.” Experts are worried monkeypox might have
found a new way of spreading via “intimate contact.” (Source: STAT)

Bad Kitty

IN BID TO PROTECT RARE BIRDS, GERMAN TOWN GROUNDS CATS

Cat owners in Walldorf, Germany, have been ordered to keep their felines indoors
until the end of August. The decree is hoped to give the crested lark —which
nests on the ground — some respite during its breeding season. The bird’s
population has plummeted in recent decades and local authorities say “the
survival of the species depends on every single chick.” The new rule, which will
apply every summer for the next three years, has left cat owners peeved. The
head of the local animal protection vowed to “do our best to stop this
disproportionate measure.” (Source: AP)

Rolling Back the Years

RORY MCILROY LEADS AFTER US PGA’S FIRST ROUND, TIGER STRUGGLES

The Northern Irishman started well in his bid to end an eight-year major
drought, finishing Day 1 with a 1-shot lead. McIlroy, a four-time major winner,
carded a 5-under-par 65 that included seven birdies. Americans Tom Hoge and Will
Zalatoris enjoyed a share of second place. “Overall, it was a great day,” said
McIlroy, who’s chasing a third U.S. PGA title. “Great to get off to a great
start at a major championship for a change.” The same couldn’t be said for his
playing partners: Tiger Woods signed for a disappointing 4-over 74, and Jordan
Spieth only managed a 72. (Source: BBC)
