Le Monde: Trumpism: A political phenomenon that defies all definition
Donald Trump's political style has drawn comparisons to illiberal democracies, akin to Viktor Orban's Hungary. His approach raises questions about its alignment with various ideologies, from techno-libertarianism to reactionary nationalism, and whether it can be classified as plutocratic populism.
The contradictions in Trump's policies, such as tariffs and border controls, challenge traditional libertarian views, complicating the understanding of his regime. Various labels have been applied to Trumpism, reflecting its multifaceted nature.

Le Monde: US partners seek relief as Trump tariffs upend global trade
President Trump's new global tariffs, effective August 7, have raised import duties significantly for various trading partners, including a 100% duty on semiconductor imports and a 50% tariff on goods from India. These measures aim to boost domestic manufacturing but raise concerns about inflation and economic growth.
While some countries, including the EU, Japan, and South Korea, face increased tariffs, negotiations continue in hopes of mitigating the impact. The tariffs are part of Trump's strategy to respond to perceived unfair trade practices and are expected to affect small American businesses and consumers.

Le Monde: In France, suicide affects men three times more than women
Recent studies indicate a concerning trend in youth mental health, particularly among young girls, with increased hospitalizations for suicide attempts. However, the overall suicide rate in France has stabilized since 2020, with 9,200 deaths recorded in 2022.
Men are disproportionately affected, with a rate of 20.8 per 100,000 compared to 6.4 for women. While attention has focused on adolescents post-Covid, suicide rates actually rise with age, peaking at over 35 per 100,000 for those aged 85 and older.
