Norman Bethune’s story still holds lessons for China-Canada relations

I grew up in a classroom where the name Norman Bethune was invoked with reverence. Like every schoolchild in China, I could recite from memory Chairman Mao’s 1939 essay “In Memory of Norman Bethune”, which characterised Bethune as a man who had come from afar, who gave his life to the Chinese revolution, who embodied selflessness and internationalism. For years, I kept a poster in my office – the famous oil painting of Mao meeting Bethune in Yan’an – as a quiet tribute. As the years passed and...

Senado dos EUA aprova US$ 70 bilhões para deportações de imigrantes e operações do ICE

EUA suspendem emissão de visto de imigrante para 75 países O Senado dos Estados Unidos aprovou uma proposta de lei que destina US$ 70 bilhões - o equivalente a R$ 354 bilhões - para deportações de imigrantes e operações de fiscalização em votação na madrugada desta sexta-feira (5). O valor adicional para o Orçamento de 2029 foi solicitado pelo governo de Donald Trump para seguir sua campanha anti-imigração. Os senadores votaram por 52 a 47 a favor do texto, que prevê um financiamento maior para o Serviço de Imigração e Alfândega (ICE) e a Patrulha da Fronteira pelos próximos três anos, até o final do mandato de Trump. O líder da maioria no Senado, John Thune, republicano da Dakota do Sul AP/J. Scott Applewhite A votação final ocorreu pouco antes das 5h da manhã, depois que os republicanos derrotaram por uma pequena margem diversas tentativas de democratas para adicionar ao projeto de lei uma cláusula que proibiria permanentemente o fundo de indenização de Trump para aliados políticos que acreditam ter sido perseguidos politicamente. “Isso já teria sido feito há várias horas se não estivéssemos tendo que lidar com alguns problemas relacionados ao fundo”, disse o líder da maioria no Senado, John Thune, republicano da Dakota do Sul, pouco antes da meia-noite. Agora, o texto vai para a Câmara dos Representantes, onde passará novamente por votação. Como a maioria da casa também é republicana, assim como o presidente, a expectativa é de uma nova aprovação.
