On the day UK introduced Mark Pope, it was Kentucky fans who made a statement

Quick Glance: Enthusiastic Kentucky Fans Welcome Mark Pope as New Wildcats Coach at Rupp Arena

Mark Pope's debut game as Kentucky's coach is still over six months away. However, the manner in which fans packed Rupp Arena for his unveiling as UK's new men's basketball coach would surprise those unfamiliar with the sport's calendar, considering the 2024-25 season doesn't commence until November.

Rupp Arena accommodates 20,500 spectators. The lower section of the venue features 10,000 theater-style seats, all of which were occupied. The upper section, with an additional 10,500 seats, took longer to fill, but by the time Pope was formally introduced at 4:54 p.m. on Sunday, not a single seat was vacant.

All of this to greet back a beloved figure.

"We witness these introductory press conferences frequently," Pope remarked. "No individual worldwide has ever witnessed a spectacle like this."

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.

Vietnamese property tycoon sentenced to death over $12bn fraud: State media says Truong My Lan’s crimes eroded public trust in ruling Communist party

ft.com/content/fcca4a8f-2de2-479f-b242-786f1bd2d512

Quick Glance: Death Sentence for Real Estate Tycoon in Vietnam's Largest Fraud Case

Truong My Lan, a prominent businesswoman and real estate tycoon, was sentenced to death in Vietnam's largest financial fraud case, marking a shocking development in the country's escalating anti-corruption campaign.

Born in 1956, Lan founded the Van Thinh Phat company with her family in 1992, which grew to become one of Vietnam's richest real estate firms linked to some of Ho Chi Minh's most valuable properties.

She was accused of using the bank as her cash cow, illegally controlling it between 2012 and 2022, and using thousands of 'ghost companies' in Vietnam and abroad to give loans to herself and her allies.

Her arrest in October 2022 falls within a period of increased anti-corruption efforts in Vietnam ramping up since 2022, impacting the country's economic outlook and unsettling foreign investors.

President Joe Biden is contemplating Australia's request to cease the long-standing U.S. effort to prosecute Wikileaks founder Julian Assange for revealing American classified documents.

There is a disparity in the treatment of Assange and Manning, with Obama shortening Manning's sentence while Assange remains under indictment. Supporters of Assange argue he is a journalist protected by the First Amendment who exposed U.S. military misconduct in Iraq and Afghanistan.
