The presidents of the US and China have met on the sidelines of the G-20 summit in Indonesia. President Joe Biden said that Beijing is not on the brink of invading Taiwan, nor will there be a new cold war. And, Ukraine’s president visits the newly liberated southern Ukrainian city of Kherson. Also, the beloved “full English breakfast” is a one-plate cornucopia of meats and more. But it’s taking an inflation hit, and some restaurants are finding it harder to keep on the menu. Plus, Mehran Karimi Nasseri, a refugee from Iran who died this weekend, spent nearly two decades between 1988 and 2006 in France’s Charles de Gaulle airport after being caught in legal limbo. We look at how people like him become stateless.
