Casallo argues that Pope Leo, the first American-born pontiff's identity cannot be understood through his Chicago origins alone. His decades of pastoral experience in Peru, amid political instability, terrorism, state violence and profound social inequalities, have shaped a religious outlook rooted in cultural openness, solidarity with the marginalized and an intimate understanding of human suffering. 9e9e7cb8-dee3-11f1-8c50-4bff3f955920Thu, 12 Nov 2026 23:26:12 GMTFRANCE24Americashttps://www.france24.com/en/americas/20261112-eight-killed-including-two-children-in-new-york-building-collapse Eight people, including two children, were killed when a residential building collapsed into an adjacent construction site in Brooklyn on Wednesday.

For Russia expert Mark Galeotti, Executive Director of Mayak Intelligence and Honorary Professor at University College London's School of Slavonic and East European Studies, Moscow's maximalist vision conceals a more complex negotiating strategy. "The Russian approach is always to sound incredibly bullish and then make any concessions at the very last minute," he explains, suggesting that the Kremlin's uncompromising rhetoric should not necessarily be mistaken for an absolute refusal to negotiate. Yet the territorial dispute over Donbas presents a particularly formidable obstacle. Putin's determination to claim control over the entirety of the region confronts Ukraine's refusal to surrender territory it continues to hold. "That Donbas question is, for me, an intractable one," Galeotti observes, warning that neither side currently appears willing to cede territory necessary for a breakthrough. Whereas conventional diplomacy generally proceeds through discreet negotiations before culminating in political announcements, Trump's approach has effectively reversed that sequence. "Trump makes grand declarations and various people try desperately to make it happen." c346f6b8-dec4-11f1-b79a-1b6dd5e61ef8Thu, 12 Nov 2026 18:45:44 GMTFRANCE24Middle Easthttps://www.france24.com/en/middle-east/20261112-israel-to-ban-far-left-french-politician-jean-luc-m%C3%A9lenchon-from-entry The Israeli government said Thursday that it would ban far-left French leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon from entering the country after the French presidential contender said he would use French vessels to force aid into Gaza if he were elected. The announcement comes a day after France confirmed it had refused entry to the head of a body representing settlements in the occupied West Bank. 8866be1e-debc-11f1-bc46-a78d57209718Thu, 12 Nov 2026 17:43:03 GMT© Abdul Saboor, ReutersFRANCE 24Francehttps://www.france24.com/en/france/20261112-labelled-terrorists-france-authorities-used-anti-terrorism-powers-to-deter-protests The French government has been accused of weaponising an anti-terror law adopted in the wake of the 2015 Paris attacks to keep dozens of people away from massive protests sweeping the country.

Nvidia occupies a unique position in a booming AI industruy marked by intensifying competition between the United States and China. Its leadership upheaval raises immediate questions about corporate succession. But it is also fueling a broader debate about economic resilience, national security and the political influence of big tech titans. For Gavin Bade, trade and economic policy reporter at The Wall Street Journal, the controversy illustrates the extraordinary concentration of economic power in a handful of corporations and the individuals who lead them. “Do these CEOs actually have more authority and more influence than our elected officials?” 69f5e66a-deb4-11f1-adfb-ad75dcdbac46Thu, 12 Nov 2026 16:49:25 GMTFRANCE24https://www.france24.com/en/video/20261112-russia-s-vladimir-putin-suggests-no-ukraine-compromise-in-meeting-with-us-envoys Russia's President Vladimir Putin indicated on Thursday, November 12, that the Kremlin would not compromise on its hardline demands to end the war in Ukraine, but offered a short-term ceasefire in a key frontline city during a meeting with US envoys.
