Aftershock from the White House press dinner attack

The latest: After a man armed with a shotgun, handgun and knives tried to storm the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner, Washington is trying to understand how, for the third time, a gunman was able to get within such close proximity of President Donald Trump.
|
|
|
|
|
Context: The dinner on Saturday had just gotten under way when shots rang out. Secret Service agents sprinted to Trump, who was attending for the first time as president and was taken offstage. Other attendees dove under tables for cover as officers yelled, “Get down!”

Officials race to restart Iran-U.S. peace talks
|
|
|
|
|
The latest: Iran said it will end its chokehold on the Strait of Hormuz without addressing its nuclear program, if the U.S. ends its blockade of the country, two regional officials with knowledge of the proposal said Monday, as the country’s foreign minister made a visit to Russia.
|
|
|
|
|
Context: Last week, Trump extended the ceasefire that the U.S. and Iran agreed to on April 7, which has largely halted the fighting that began with joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on Feb. 28. A permanent settlement remains elusive in the war that has killed thousands of people and shaken the global economy.
|
|
|
|
|
What’s next: Another ceasefire between Israel and the Iranian-backed Lebanese militant group Hezbollah has been extended by three weeks. Meanwhile, it appears that Ottawa is siding more often with its European allies when it comes to Israel.
