    This article is pretty interesting, it describes how recently some rebel forces in Syria were ambushed by Assad's army. It also puts into perspective just about how many people have been killed through this whole civil war, which I had not known before.

    Britain's new PM is considered a foreign policy hawk, which could mean stronger relationship with US when facing challenges with Russia and China. Also has no apparent plan to solve economic issues at home, and much of her policy similar to that of Boris Johnson.

    I wonder what this means for other oil exporting countries throughout Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America. Will some of the more dictatorial countries face a thaw in relations with the UK, US, and Europe more broadly? We have already seen a let up in tensions with Saudi Arabia, and even a bit with Venezuela.

    "She has pledged to deliver an emergency budget, and promised that there would be no new taxes on Britons." It's so tragically funny how she can promise to keep letting things get worse and worse. Hey, hopefully this means Northern Irish repatriation and Scottish independence in the coming years. The UK will keep rotting away unless the Tories are unseated.

    Ouch, Slava! (And yes). The UK is in a perilous situation and, as with the Brexit vote a few years ago, the country is split between isolationists and internationalists. Seems like the more diverse Britain's urban population becomes, the more conservative those with a lot of wealth and the mostly anglo-ethnic people who live in villages and rural areas become. Similar to the US?
