Julian Assange arrives at US court ahead of plea deal securing his freedom | VOA News #shorts Voice of America 2024-06-26 | WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange landed on U.S. soil on Wednesday to face a final court hearing under a plea deal expected to end years of legal drama and allow him to return to his native Australia as a free man. Assange arrived in Saipan, the capital of the Northern Mariana Islands, two hours before the scheduled start of a plea hearing in which he is set to admit to a felony for publishing U.S. military secrets. The deal spares him prison time in America after years spent jailed in the United Kingdom while fighting extradition to America. The hearing, taking place in a U.S. commonwealth in the Pacific, is the stunning culmination of the U.S. government's yearslong pursuit of a publisher who has been painted both as a hero and a reckless criminal for exposing hundreds of thousands of sensitive military documents. The U.S. Justice Department agreed to hold the hearing on the remote island of Saipan not only because Assange opposed coming to the continental U.S. but also because it's near Australia, where he will return after he enters his plea. voanews.com/a/wikileaks-founder-assange-to-plead-guilty-in-deal-with-us-/7668959.html » Subscribe to VOA News: bit.ly/3KIPysi» Watch more VOA News video: youtube.com/c/VOANewsVoice of America (VOA) is the largest U.S. international broadcaster, providing news and information in more than 40 languages to an estimated weekly audience of 236.8 million people.

Sicilians cool off at beach as temperatures soar | VOA News Voice of America 2024-06-22 | Sicilians flocked to the beach to cool off Saturday, as they braved scorching temperatures. As temperatures and humidity soar outside, what's happening inside the human body can become a life-or-death battle decided by just a few degrees. The critical danger point outdoors for illness and death from relentless heat is several degrees lower than experts once thought, say researchers who put people in hot boxes to see what happens to them. With much of the United States, Mexico, India and the Middle East suffering through blistering heat waves, worsened by human-caused climate change, several doctors, physiologists and other experts explained to The Associated Press what happens to the human body in such heat. voanews.com/a/how-does-heat-kill-it-confuses-your-brain-overworks-your-heart-shuts-down-your-organs/7665703.html » Subscribe to VOA News: bit.ly/3KIPysi» Watch more VOA News video: youtube.com/c/VOANewsVoice of America (VOA) is the largest U.S. international broadcaster, providing news and information in more than 40 languages to an estimated weekly audience of 236.8 million people.

Indian PM welcomes Bangladeshi counterpart | VOA News #shorts Voice of America 2024-06-22 | Bangladesh’s Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina met Saturday with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi, where the two countries are expected to sign a slew of agreements and strengthen their relationship. The agreements were signed during Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s visit to India, the first foreign leader to visit New Delhi since Narendra Modi became the country’s prime minister for a third term two weeks ago. Modi welcomed Bangladesh’s decision to join his Indo-Pacific Oceans Initiative to expand and facilitate regional cooperation of India’s maritime neighbors. He said the deals with Dhaka were part of his country’s pursuit of a neighborhood-first approach. Bangladesh also enjoys good ties with China, its major trade partner mostly for raw materials. But maintaining a close relationship with Beijing is challenging for Bangladesh, which also balances diplomatic and trade relationships with India and the United States, China’s main rivals. voanews.com/a/india-bangladesh-boost-defense-ties-to-counterweigh-china/7666237.html » Subscribe to VOA News: bit.ly/3KIPysi» Watch more VOA News video: youtube.com/c/VOANewsVoice of America (VOA) is the largest U.S. international broadcaster, providing news and information in more than 40 languages to an estimated weekly audience of 236.8 million people.

US aircraft carrier arrives in South Korea | VOA News Voice of America 2024-06-22 | A nuclear-powered United States aircraft carrier arrived Saturday in South Korea for a three-way exercise with South Korea and Japan, known as 'Freedom Edge.' The arrival of the USS Theodore Roosevelt strike group in Busan came a day after South Korea summoned the Russian ambassador to protest a pact reached between Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un this week that pledges mutual defense assistance in the event of war. South Korea says the deal poses a threat to its security and warned that it could consider sending arms to Ukraine to help fight off the Russian invasion as a response — a move that would surely ruin its relations with Moscow. Following a meeting between their defense chiefs in Singapore earlier in June, the United States, South Korea and Japan announced Freedom Edge. The new multidomain exercise is aimed at sharpening the countries’ combined response in various areas of operation, including air, sea and cyberspace. The Theodore Roosevelt strike group will participate in the exercise that is expected to start within June. South Korea’s military didn’t immediately confirm specific details of the training. voanews.com/a/us-aircraft-carrier-arrives-in-south-korea-as-show-of-force-against-north/7666073.html » Subscribe to VOA News: bit.ly/3KIPysi» Watch more VOA News video: youtube.com/c/VOANewsVoice of America (VOA) is the largest U.S. international broadcaster, providing news and information in more than 40 languages to an estimated weekly audience of 236.8 million people.

Modi marks International Yoga Day in Indian-administered Kashmir | VOA News Voice of America 2024-06-22 | Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi marked the International Day of Yoga Friday, by performing yoga exercises in Indian Kashmir’s capital city of Srinagar. Muslims in India are feeling more secure about their future after last month’s national election in which Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s BJP failed to win an outright majority in parliament, forcing it to form a coalition with other parties.Before the election, national media had reported deep concerns among Muslims that the Hindu nationalist ruling party would meet expectations for a landslide victory, leaving it free to pursue policies that would further marginalize the Muslim minority. But with the BJP constrained by its election setback and the influence of its coalition partners, most believe those concerns are unlikely to be realized. voanews.com/a/modi-s-electoral-setback-leaves-india-s-muslims-feeling-more-secure/7664753.html » Subscribe to VOA News: bit.ly/3KIPysi» Watch more VOA News video: youtube.com/c/VOANewsVoice of America (VOA) is the largest U.S. international broadcaster, providing news and information in more than 40 languages to an estimated weekly audience of 236.8 million people.
