Remember Donald Trump? Since Jan. 20, Joe Biden is the 46th president of the United States. He has done a lot of things to make people forget his predecessor. Biden has implemented a $1.9 trillion stimulus plan and, in the first quarter of 2021, has more people vaccinated against COVID-19 than the total amount of doses that had been promised to Europe’s citizens. The United States re-entered the Paris Agreement and the United Nations Human Rights Council. It once again supports the Iran nuclear deal and the New START treaty.

Separatist rebels shot dead a 16-year-old schoolboy in Indonesia’s Papua province, police said Friday about the latest in a spate of recent killings of civilians whom the insurgents accused of spying for the government.
As they did after other fatal attacks this month, the West Papua National Liberation Army (TPNPB) rebels claimed responsibility for the boy’s killing. Lekagak Telenggen, the group’s general operations chief, said the teenager, Ali Mom, was a spy for the authorities.
“Yesterday night around 6 or 7 p.m. my members shot dead a provocateur and intelligence agent named Ali Mom in Ilaga,” Lekagak told BenarNews by phone from Ilaga, a district in Puncak regency where the teenager was gunned down.
