How the rest of the world views the US presidential election
A TV screen shows a live broadcast of US President Donald Trump and Democratic presidential candidate former Vice President Joe Biden during the final presidential debate, at the Seoul Railway Station in Seoul, South Korea, Oct. 23, 2020.
The last presidential debate Thursday focused extensively on foreign policy topics. The World’s foreign correspondents share global reactions and what they’re seeing abroad in the buildup to the Nov. 3 US election. And, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo met the foreign ministers of Azerbaijan and Armenia on Friday. It’s the latest attempt to find a solution to nearly a month of fighting in Nagorno-Karabakh. Also, when is a burger not a burger? That’s a practical question facing the European Parliament in a discussion Friday about whether plant-based alternatives can use names typically associated with meat.
