 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. There are no issues of democratic import in the indictment. Rather, the Democratic Party has chosen to focus on the flimsiest and most inconsequential matter possible: a sex scandal. Prime Minister Viktor Orbán is the first leader of a NATO country to publicly raise the prospect of the deployment of troops from NATO countries into Ukraine. Like the war in Ukraine itself, the integration of Finland and soon Sweden into NATO was prepared over decades of aggressive US wars and NATO's eastward expansion up to Russia's borders. UAW presidential candidate Will Lehman's complaint to the Department of Labor, filed March 29, reviews the UAW monitor's conflict of interest, which Lehman said is a ground to re-run the election in its own right. Students demonstrated in Paris against Macron and his pension reform, and against the indifference of university administrations to neo-Nazi attacks targeting them. The SEP calls on all workers to oppose the government's strike-breaking and defend the jobs, wages and democratic rights of petroleum workers. Under Trump and now Biden, Washington has fundamentally altered the delicate balancing act that led to the establishment of formal diplomatic relations between Beijing and Washington in 1979. ChatGPT, released as a free prototype by the research laboratory OpenAI last November, is a powerful artificial intelligence technology with socially transformative potential that is being used under capitalism to eliminate jobs, increase exploitation and automate warfare. The grad students and their supporters braved cold and rain on their third day on the picket line. Wingard has faced public backlash for his handling of the recently-concluded university workers' strike. That major financial players ignored the flashing warning lights and continued to invest with Madoff points to the social psychology of a ruling class so manic in its pursuit of ever-greater personal wealth that it has become blinded by its own greed. More, however, is involved in this sociopathic outlook than subjective personality traits. Numerous tornadoes were spotted in Iowa, Illinois, Arkansas and Tennessee. Meteorologists report that as many as 89 million people in at least 15 states were at risk from the "explosive" storms. In violation of international law, all migrants seeking refuge in Canada who enter "irregularly," whether via land or waterway, will now be handed over to American ICE agents. Foreign Minister Penny Wong contemptuously rejected calls to intervene in defence of Assange, the Australian citizen and journalist persecuted for exposing the war crimes of the US and its allies. German public sector workers are indignant over the employers' demands for cuts in real wages, but the services union Verdi has accepted arbitration in an attempt to wear down the workers' militancy and prevent a strike. India: Uttar Pradesh government sector workers protest sackings; Tamil Nadu government farm workers strike for permanency; Australia: Melton City Council nurses demand higher wages; Offshore shipping workers strike in Western Australia. More than 1,000 Sysco workers have gone on strike in California, Indiana and Kentucky as the Teamsters union seeks to contain and betray the struggle of truck drivers and warehouse workers against the $40 billion food distribution monopoly. A mass of new data has revealed the long-term decline in the living conditions of millions across the UK and provided forecasts of even worse circumstances for years to come. Ward and Furey have lost the confidence of postal workers, having conspired with management behind their backs and agreed further attacks, while undemocratically overruling the vote to renew strike action.
