WATCH: Biden accepts endorsements from Kennedy family members at campaign event in Philadelphia

Quick Glance: Biden Receives Kennedy Family Endorsements in Philadelphia

President Joe Biden received endorsements from at least 15 members of the Kennedy political family during a campaign stop in Philadelphia to undermine Donald Trump and marginalize the candidacy of independent Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Kerry Kennedy, daughter of former Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, niece of former President John F. Kennedy, and sister of the current presidential candidate, delivered the endorsements in Philadelphia, calling Biden her hero.

The decision to highlight the Kennedy family's support more than six months from Election Day indicates how seriously Biden's team is taking a long shot candidate using his last name's lingering Democratic magic.

Biden used the event to keep up the pressure on Trump, emphasizing the importance of the election not for himself, but to keep Trump out, stating the race was significant due to the potential consequences if they lose this election. The Kennedy family endorsements for Biden were hardly a surprise, as prominent members of the Democratic family did not politically align with Kennedy Jr.

Trump to meet with Polish president Duda as NATO leaders call for additional support for Ukraine

apnews.com/article/trump-poland-duda-election-c003208a11a4a8b13bd74c0056bf164a

Quick Glance: Trump to Meet Polish President Duda as NATO Leaders Push for Ukraine Support

Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump plans to meet with Polish President Andrzej Duda to discuss support for Ukraine.

European leaders are concerned about Trump's critical stance towards NATO, especially after Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Poland hopes Duda can leverage his friendly ties with Trump to garner more support for Ukraine.

The relationship between Poland and the Biden administration, along with GOP criticism of Ukraine aid, are also topics of discussion.

apnews.com/article/biden-uncle-world-war-ii-cannibals-trump-4f3b7d1c988e041fbc07f60f952ca95f

Quick Glance: Biden's Cannibal Story Causes Confusion in Papua New Guinea

Joe Biden's claim that his uncle was eaten by cannibals in Papua New Guinea during World War Two has sparked confusion and criticism in the country.

Official war records state that Finnegan died in a plane crash in the Pacific Ocean, with no mention of cannibalism or the plane being shot down.

Analysts in Papua New Guinea consider Biden's comments unsubstantiated and poorly judged, especially as the US aims to strengthen ties with the country and counter Chinese influence in the region.

Some residents were simply baffled by the remarks, while others found them unhelpful and damaging to Papua New Guinea's reputation, particularly after Biden cancelled a planned trip to the country last year.

Quick Glance: Trump Narrows Gap with Young Voters, Biden's Lead Shrinks - Survey Results

A new poll shows that former President Donald Trump continues to reduce his deficit with young voters compared to President Joe Biden.

In the Harvard Youth Poll released on Thursday, Biden leads among 18- to 29-year-olds with 45 percent compared to 37 percent for Trump, while 16 percent are undecided.

Biden holds a significant lead among likely voters who are non-white or female. He outperforms Trump by 47 points among college graduates and by 23 points among students.

The survey also indicates that Trump's younger supporters are much more enthusiastic about the former president than their peers who support Biden, and that Biden's approval rating among young adults is only at 31 percent.

Quick Glance: Joe Biden Calls for Significant Increase in Tariffs on Chinese Steel

US President Joe Biden is pushing for an increase in tariffs on Chinese steel and aluminium to strengthen union support in the swing state of Pennsylvania.

During a meeting with United Steelworkers union members in Pittsburgh, Biden calls on trade representative Katherine Tai to raise the tariffs from the current average of 7.5 percent.

The main focus of the measures is to combat China's new export surge and the ongoing price pressure that makes it difficult for American steel companies to compete.

The Biden administration's decision to increase tariffs is expected to impact recent efforts by Washington and Beijing to stabilize relations.

Israel has launched a “diplomatic offensive” against Iran, urging sanctions against the Islamic republic.

Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz has called on 32 countries to impose sanctions on Tehran as Israel considers a military response to Iran’s attack.

Israeli military sources reported intercepting 99 percent of aerial threats with assistance from the United States and allies, causing only minor damage.

Tensions are high as Israel ponders its reaction to Saturday's attack while Germany calls for new sanctions related to Iran's drone supply to Russia for use in Ukraine.

washingtonpost.com/national-security/2024/04/17/venezuela-oil-sanctions-biden/

Quick Glance: US to Reinstate Sanctions on Venezuela’s Oil and Gas Sector

The United States will reimpose sanctions on Venezuela’s oil and gas sector due to the Maduro government's failure to allow 'an inclusive and competitive election' to take place.

The US government decided not to renew the temporary authorization (General License 44) that allowed transactions with Venezuela's national oil and gas sector without fear of sanctions, citing the Maduro government's failure to uphold key areas of the 'Barbados Agreement.'

While the impact of revoking the authorization could not be quantified, another authorization from 2022 allowing the oil company Chevron to resume limited resource extraction operations in Venezuela will remain in place.

Despite reinstating sanctions, a US official emphasized that this should not be seen as a final decision on Venezuela's electoral capabilities, and efforts to support a better future for the country will continue.

During a phone call with Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, Russian President Vladimir Putin cautioned against further escalation in the Middle East, emphasizing the potential 'catastrophic consequences.'

Putin expressed the expectation for all parties to exhibit reasonable restraint to prevent a new round of confrontation that could lead to 'catastrophic consequences' for the entire region, as outlined by the Kremlin's report on the call.
