Trump and NATO

U.S President Donald Trump is heavily criticising Germany as he enters the summit of NATO leaders in Brussels.

It's the first moment in what could be a very tense summit between the American leader and their NATO allies.

U.S. President Donald Trump reasserted his displeasure that Germany is setting up a gas pipeline with Russia while America supports Europe in defence over concerns about Moscow's activities.

Last year only 6 NATO countries spent the pledged 2 percent of their GDP on defence - another major complaint for the US president.

WhatsApp launches public safety ad campaign in India

Days after the Indian government pulled up WhatsApp and asked it to take urgent steps to prevent the spread of misinformation, the instant messaging service has launched full page advertisements in leading Indian newspapers.

Over the last three months, twenty-nine people have been lynched by mobs across eight Indian states. These people were killed after locals mistook them to be child abductors- following viral messages circulated on WhatsApp warning of child kidnapping gangs being active in those areas.

Judge grants more time for US gov’t to reunite kids with parents

A San Diego judge has granted the federal government additional time to reunite migrant children who they separated from their parents, saying some cases pose logistical challenges.

NEW UK CABINET MEETS AMID BREXIT DIVISIONS

Theresa May's re-shuffled cabinet is meeting (Tuesday) as she tries to stabilise Britain's government amid a crisis over Brexit.

Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson and Brexit Secretary David Davis both resigned in under 24 hours over concerns about her Brexit strategy.

They've been replaced by Jeremy Hunt and Dominic Raab respectively.

Mrs May will now hope to head off a potential leadership challenge so she can continue negotiations on the terms of Britain's exit from the EU.

And she'll hope to do that on the basis of a Brexit plan agreed by the cabinet at her country residence of Chequers last week.

UK correspondent Olly Barratt says her now cabinet appointments could be crucial.
