French immigration law: Macron votes in favor of a compromise “as soon as possible”

Despite the slap in the face at the National Assembly, the immigration bill will continue its journey through the Joint Joint Committee in search of a compromise, ruling out any dissolution or use of 49.3 despite intense opposition.

United Nations General Assembly: Gaza is living “hell on earth” according to the UN

The UN indicates that international pressure is mounting against Israel, with the overwhelming majority of the United Nations General Assembly calling for a “humanitarian ceasefire” in the Gaza Strip, which has become “hell on earth.” This is because of the constant bombings and the humanitarian conditions that are becoming more terrible every day. US President Joe Biden has publicly criticized the Israeli government for its opposition to a “two-state solution” and warned it against an erosion of global public support because of its “indiscriminate” bombing

The UN General Assembly called for “an immediate humanitarian ceasefire” on Tuesday, in a resolution adopted by 153 votes in favor, 10 against, and 23 abstentions.

Niger: the government announces that all French soldiers will have left the country by December 22

The military regime that came to power by a coup in Niamey announced that all French soldiers deployed in Niger as part of the fight against jihadism will have left the country by December 22. This is the end point of a departure that began in October. “By December 22, all French soldiers and their logistical (equipment) will have definitively left Niger,” the Nigerien Armed Forces said in their statement

This is the culmination of a profound divorce between France and Niger, since the generals came to power in Niamey during a coup on July 26. They then quickly demanded the departure of French soldiers - about 1,500 deployed to fight against the jihadists - and denounced several military agreements reached

Purpose? Publish a compromise text at dawn and convene a plenary session at 9:30 (5:30 GMT) to hope to approve it, according to a presidential spokesperson. The Emirati president of COP28, Sultan Al Jaber, is working hard to save a COP that he had announced as “a turning point”, capable of maintaining the most ambitious objective of the Paris Agreement: limiting the rise in global temperature to 1.5DegC
