Fox News: Leaders from EU, Latin America hold first summit in 8 years with hopes of rekindling relationship
European and Latin American leaders gathered for their first summit in eight years, but tensions persisted over historical and current grievances. Latin American leaders expressed frustration over Europe's historically unequal relationship with former colonies and called for equal partnership in the 21st century.

The summit was marked by divisions on issues such as trade, Russia's war in Ukraine, and deforestation.
Trade agreements remained unresolved, including the EU-Mercosur deal, as leaders struggled to find common ground. Latin American leaders showcased their increased confidence due to greater economic ties with China. While the aim of the summit was to strengthen partnerships, divisions over various issues complicated the discussions. The inclusion of a condemnation of Russia's war in Ukraine and disagreement over environmental standards further highlighted the challenges faced in reaching consensus. Despite pledges and commitments, a sense of inequality and unfinished business lingered.

The Economist: Muddled policies are harming British universities
British universities are facing funding difficulties due to muddled government policies. Students have been impacted by the pandemic, rising living costs, and strikes by lecturers. The Office for Students is monitoring finances at 31 universities, and many are seeking savings. The government's decision to triple tuition fees in 2012 has not been reviewed and inflation has eroded their value. Despite these challenges, British universities still rank among the best globally and attract foreign students. The government is now concerned about the financial burden of student loans and the value of university degrees, leading to uncertain funding for universities in the future.

Flag And Cross: Ancient Apex Predators: Ice Age Cats And Wolves Had Arthritis, Study Finds
Ice Age saber-tooth cats and dire wolves, excavated from the La Brea tar pits in Southern California, suffered from arthritis-like conditions, similar to cats and dogs today.
