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.

Mar 16, 2022


TODAY

Despite continued Russian attacks, the prime ministers of Poland, Slovenia and
the Czech Republic journeyed to Kyiv to meet President Volodymyr Zelenskyy last
night. Russia retaliated against stinging sanctions by singling out American
officials. Health care workers in Haiti are in their third day of strikes over
rampant crime and kidnappings. And Pfizer wants to give boomers a fourth
COVID-19 shot. All this and more in today’s PDB.

UKRAINE ‘NOT ALONE’ AS CENTRAL EUROPEAN LEADERS VISIT KYIV

While half of the city’s residents have fled and the Russian assault on the
Ukrainian capital continues, the prime ministers of Poland, Slovenia and the
Czech Republic risked a perilous train journey into Kyiv to meet with President
Volodymyr Zelenskyy Tuesday night. Czech PM Petr Fiala told Ukrainians that they
are “not alone,” affirming, “Europe stands with you.” Next week Western leaders,
including U.S. President Joe Biden, will meet in Brussels for a NATO summit on
the invasion. Meanwhile, Zelenskyy said Russian negotiations have become “more
realistic” as he conceded that Ukraine would not become a member of NATO.

The War and US

RUSSIA SANCTIONS AMERICANS AS ZELENSKYY PREPARES TO ADDRESS CONGRESS

While Russia’s economy feels the sting of international sanctions over the
invasion of Ukraine, Moscow lashed out with sanctions of its own against White
House officials as well as former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Citing the
“extreme Russophobic policy” of the Biden administration, Moscow posted a “stop
list” blocking the sanctioned Americans from the country. “None of us are
planning tourist trips to Russia,” press secretary Jen Psaki responded.
Meanwhile, President Biden is expected to announce $800 million in new military
assistance to Ukraine on Wednesday as President Zelenskyy makes a virtual
address to a joint session of Congress this morning. (Sources: NPR, The Hill,
ABC News)

A Striking Cause

HAITIAN HEALTH WORKERS STRIKE AS KIDNAPPERS RUN RAMPANT

Kidnappings for ransom have risen 180% in the island nation over the past year
as gang violence and political instability threaten citizens’ daily lives. In
response, health care workers staged a three-day strike beginning Monday,
shutting down public and private health institutions, with only emergency rooms
accepting patients. While the attacks haven’t targeted any specific professions,
the recent kidnapping of two doctors has sparked fears for hospital workers. The
situation in Haiti has become increasingly dire since the assassination of
President Jovenel Moïse in July, and the number of Haitians fleeing the country
has ballooned in recent months. (Source: Al Jazeera)

Boosters for Boomers

PFIZER SEEKS APPROVAL FOR SECOND COVID BOOSTER FOR OLDER ADULTS

While for most people a three-shot inoculation still prevents hospitalization or
death from COVID-19, immunity fades over time. Pharma giant Pfizer said it will
ask the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to authorize a second round of booster
shots for adults aged 65 and over. But drug companies and health experts are
divided on the effectiveness of multiple boosters. Moderna president Stephen
Hoge suggested they were needed for the elderly and immunocompromised, but
doubted they should be required for all citizens. “Is it necessary? I think
that's a strong word,” Hoge said, adding, “I personally will get a booster every
year.” (Sources: NPR, Business Insider)

HERE ARE SOME THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT TODAY: 

U.S. Senate votes unanimously to make daylight saving time permanent. The
Sunshine Protection Act still needs approval from the House and President Biden
before it becomes law. (Source: AP) Suspect arrested in string of homeless
murders. Two days after a multistate manhunt, Washington, D.C., police said they
have a suspect behind bars. (Source: BBC) Sarah Bloom Raskin withdraws from
Federal Reserve Board nomination. Her decision came after it became clear she
wouldn’t have enough votes for confirmation in the Senate due to her stance on
climate change. (Source: CNN)

DUOLINGO REPORTS HUGE INCREASE IN USERS LEARNING UKRAINIAN

The popular language app is putting its money where its mouth is. All ad revenue
Duolingo makes from people learning to speak Ukrainian will be donated to relief
efforts in the war-torn country for at least the next year. And that’s a pretty
admirable commitment, considering the number of Ukrainian learners has jumped
485% since the war began. That spike is dwarfed, though, by the 1,800% increase
in Poland alone. The country has accepted more than 1.8 million Ukrainian
refugees already and more Polish people are welcoming Ukrainians into their
homes every day. (Source: NPR)

Build It Black

FIRST EVER BLACK ARCHITECT WINS PRITZKER PRIZE

Francis Kéré grew up without running water or electricity in a rural town in
Burkina Faso and his first project was a mud-brick school for his community. Now
he’s the first Black architect to win the highest accolade in international
architecture. While the award is often seen as a sort of lifetime achievement
award near the end of an architect’s career, Kéré is just getting started. After
making a name for himself with community-built schools and medical facilities in
Africa, his upcoming works include the new Goethe Institute in Senegal, a museum
in Rwanda and a civic center for a university in Munich. (The Guardian)

More Sun, More Sneezing

WARMING CLIMATE COULD BE A NIGHTMARE FOR SEASONAL ALLERGIES

A new study in Nature Communications looks ahead to the end of the 21st century
and foresees great doom for those of us who suffer from allergies every spring.
University of Michigan researchers used historical pollen data and various
climate models to determine that if carbon emissions continue at the current
pace, pollen season could start 40 days earlier and last 19 days longer,
increasing the amount of pollen released in the U.S. by almost 40%. That’s on
top of the fact that allergy season has already been getting longer and more
intense over the past three decades. (Source: NBC News)

The Queen of Tejano Lives On

NEW SELENA ALBUM EXPECTED NEXT MONTH, 26 YEARS AFTER HER DEATH

Selena Quintanilla Perez was an international superstar when she was tragically
gunned down by the president of her own fan club on March 31, 1995, just a month
before her 24th birthday. Now the late Grammy-winning artist’s father, Abraham
Quintanilla, has announced that a new 13-song album of her music will be
released next month. It will feature arrangements written by her brother, A.B.
Quintanilla, and album art by her sister, Suzette Quintanilla. Selena’s
13-year-old voice was digitally altered to sound like her more mature voice on
one of the songs on the album. (Source: The Hill)

Amp Up the Madness

MARCH MADNESS BETTING EXPECTED TO REACH RECORD HIGH THIS YEAR

Nine states — Arizona, Connecticut, Louisiana, Maryland, North Dakota, South
Dakota, Washington, Wisconsin and Wyoming — all launched legal sports betting
markets since last year, giving 29 million more Americans access to betting on
this year’s March Madness. The American Gaming Association estimates that could
result in 45 million Americans wagering a combined $3.1 billion on the 2022
men’s college basketball tournament. Interestingly, 76% of the money wagered
will go to non-bracket bets, signaling a shift toward single-game betting
outside of traditional bracket pools. Good luck, basketball fans: Maybe this
year is your year. (Source: Axios)
