"Make Europe Great Again"- that's the cry from Hungary's controversial Prime Minister, Viktor Orban, as his government takes over the EU's six-month rotating presidency.
Mr. Orban's proximity to Donald Trump has EU officials in Brussels on edge. His ties to Russia, and his clashes with his European counterparts over the direction of democracy are also points of difference.

NYTimes Editorial Board joins calls on Biden to abandon re-election quest
US President Joe Biden says he is staying in the country's presidential race, despite growing pressure on him to drop out following Thursday's lackluster performance in a television debate with former President Donald Trump.
A growing number of Biden supporters are urging him to stand down, and Republicans in Congress say they believe Vice President Kamala Harris and members of the President's Cabinet should exercise the 25th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, and declare the President unfit for office.
