Did you miss the news this early morning? We’ve put together a recap to help you see things more clearly.
The G20 opened on Tuesday with a major absentee: Vladimir Putin. The master of the Kremlin has indeed preferred to send his Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov to Bali. And even before the start of the summit, the pressure mounted on Moscow. Xi Jinping thus met Joe Biden on Monday and Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday. The Chinese president and his American counterpart notably agreed on their “opposition” to any use of nuclear weapons in Ukraine, according to the White House. Emmanuel Macron for his part urged Xi Jinping to call on Putin to “return to the negotiating table”. Volodymyr Zelensky was one of the first to speak by videoconference to what he called the “G19”, therefore excluding Russia. The Ukrainian president urged the leaders gathered in Indonesia to overcome their divisions to end the “destructive” war waged by Moscow.
Météo-France is worried about southern Corsica. The department was placed this Tuesday morning in orange vigilance for the risk of thunderstorms and rain-flooding. Storms coming from the sea occur this morning on the west of the island. They will strengthen at midday and should last until the middle of the night, the weather service said in its 6 a.m. bulletin. These storms are locally strong with intensities of around 40 to 60 mm in one hour. The accumulations over the episode are close to 50 to 80 mm, locally 130 to 150 mm. In addition to the electrical activity, these storms are accompanied by strong gusts of wind, around 70 to 80 km/h. The activity will gradually cease in the second part of the night from Tuesday to Wednesday.
Justice will have to decide between Cyril Hanouna and Louis Boyard. After having fought last week on the program Touche pas à mon poste, the host and the LFI deputy continued their hostilities from a distance on Monday, each announcing legal proceedings. In a press conference at the National Assembly, Louis Boyard first announced that he would “file a complaint” for the insults live Thursday evening from Cyril Hanouna, in his program on the C8 channel. The same evening, when he returned to the air, the host indicated in turn that he would sue Louis Boyard for defamation.
