Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes.
On today's podcast:
1) Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is traveling to Norway for new peace talks as US pressure mounts for concessions from Kyiv to reach a deal with Russia. US envoy Steve Witkoff is expected to take part in the talks with Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre and Finland’s President Alexander Stubb, while Jared Kushner will participate online. Relations between President Trump and Zelenskyy have soured, with Trump criticizing Zelenskyy and saying he should have settled the war a long time ago.
2) President Trump used an antisemitic term during a rally in Kansas as he defended Republican Senator Roger Marshall, saying Marshall was portrayed as "some kind of a Shylock-type guy." Trump said Marshall had received a "bum rap" and was mandated by law to request money owed from patients, and that if he didn't make these requests, he would be breaking the law. Trump faced criticism for using the term, which has long been considered antisemitic, and has a history of using stereotypes about Jewish people, including telling a gathering of the Republican Jewish Committee that they wanted to "control" politicians.
3) A measure of French bond risk breached a key level on Tuesday, underscoring the challenges facing the government as it struggles to tame the budget deficit and defuse cost-of-living protests. The extra yield investors demand to hold French 10-year bonds over safer German debt rose two basis points to 150 basis points, a closely watched level that was last seen on Oct. 5. The spread hit a peak of 159 basis points earlier this month as political and fiscal pressures intensified, prompting many investors to liquidate their positions in the nation’s debt.
