PRESS REVIEW – Tuesday, July 1: The French left-wing papers rejoice after a controversial public broadcasting bill is rejected by parliament. The New York Times looks at how the Sinaloa cartel is making new alliances with enemies, which could reshape the global drug trade. Also: a photo report documents horrific sexual violence inflicted on Tigray women in Ethiopia. Plus: Oliver Tarvet, an amateur player, will face world n° 2 Carlos Alcaraz in the second round at Wimbledon.  French MPs have rejected a bill that aims to bring France's public services under one holding company. The text was rejected in the National Assembly on Monday before it could even be debated. It will now head to the Senate for a review. L'Humanité, the Communist paper, says: "Dati persists, public services resist." That headline is in reference to French Culture Minister – and Paris mayor hopeful – Rachida Dati, who spearheaded the controversial bill. Libération says the MPs' outright rejection of the text is a "slap in the face" for Dati, noting that she was abandoned in the vote by Macron's ruling coalition. In its editorial, Libération says Dati failed in her fourth attempt at passing the deeply controversial bill. It accuses her of being dogmatic in her bid to seek revenge on the journalists who have investigated her many corruption scandals. As Le Monde explains, the proposal seeks to merge France's three major public broadcasting companies: France Télévisions, Radio France and INA, the national archives. This merger has been likened to a French-style BBC. Those opposed to the move say it would hamper editorial independence and offer fewer resources at a time when maintaining editorial independence is crucial. Le Monde notes that this reform comes at a time when French public services are in relatively good health: Radio France's podcasts are among the most listened to and France Télévisions is holding strong against competition. This doesn't detract, however, from the challenges the sector faces: ageing audiences and fierce competition from on-demand television. In other news: The New York Times looks at how tough times for the Mexican Sinaloa dug cartel could push them to make dangerous alliances. The Sinaloa cartel is the world's most feared fentanyl cartel. It is reeling from internal fighting and a crackdown by Mexico and the USA. The cartel has for years run a global empire through alliances with affiliates around the world. But now, amid troubled times, a faction of the group have allied with a powerful adversary: the Jalisco New Generation Cartel. This alliance could turn the latter in to the world's biggest drug trafficker and redraw alliances and power structures around the world. As one expert puts it, it's as if the East Coast of the US seceded during the Cold War and reached out to the Soviet Union. The British daily The Guardian has a haunting photo report looking at the horrific sexual violence inflicted against Tigray woman in Ethiopia. Uruguayan photographer Ximena Borrazas specialises in documenting humanitarian conflict. During the 2020 war, tens of thousands of Tigrayan women were gang-raped by Ethiopian and Eritrean soldiers. As Borrazas reports, some had foreign objects forcibly injected into their uterus – metal screws and even letters written by soldiers covered in plastic. These letters expressed a desire to render the women infertile so as to end the Tigrayan population. Some expressed a desire to seek revenge for Tigray's border war in the 1990s. Other women were subjected to acid attacks and still suffer today. The Guardian notes that nearly 90 percent of victims have not received any medical or psychological help. Justice for them seems an even more distant prospect. Finally, an amateur tennis player will face world n° 2 Carlos Alcaraz in the second round of Wimbledon. Britain's Oliver Tarvet, who is ranked 733rd in the world, is the lowest-ranked player in the entire singles draw. His three-set first round win over a Swiss opponent earned him nearly £100,000. But his amateur status and the fact that he's a US college student mean he can only received £10,000 in profit this year because of the national collegiate athlete rules. Nonetheless, he has a mammoth task ahead of him: his second-round match will be against Alcaraz on Wednesday! You can catch our press review every morning on FRANCE 24 at 7:20am and 9:20am (Paris time), from Monday to Friday.

Haftu Strintzos spent the first years of his life as a shepherd in mountainous Tigray in northern Ethiopia. He cared for sheep and cows and played hopscotch (the Tigrayan version) with the other shepherds. Now an Asics-sponsored athlete, with his sights on representing Australia in the marathon, Haftu has the most incredible story brimming with resilience and perspective. But to understand how he got from A to B, you'll just have to listen to this episode. Haftu talks about some defining moments of his athletic career so far, including running for Villanova University in the US, finishing first Australian across the line at the World Athletics Cross Country Championships in Serbia, winning the 10,000m at the 2024 Oceania Athletics Championships and achieving silver in the 5,000m. After his half marathon debut in Melbourne last year (62:24), Haftu followed up with a blinder in Marugame in Japan, where he ran 60:36 and asserted himself as a real contender on the roads. Unfortunately, Haftu's marathon debut was foiled by an injury that popped up just before Hamburg Marathon earlier this year. We discuss how he's dealing with that injury setback, how training has changed since he transitioned to Adam Didyk's Team Tempo and what Haftu's big goals for the future look like. -- Follow us on Instagram: @haftustrintz @runwithit.pod @elisebeacom -- Intro/outro music by Dan Beacom Graphic design by Kate Scheer

Listen to the episode to find out where to send your thoughts. In this briefing, originally published March 27, 2025, Fred Harter looks at the potential for fresh conflict in Ethiopia. Ethiopia, Eritrea and Tigray Are Back on a War Footing ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia—A political crisis in Ethiopia's war-battered Tigray escalated dramatically in March, bringing armed men out onto the streets and raising fears of a fresh conflict in the still-fragile region. At its heart is a power struggle between Debretsion Gebremichael, chairman of the dominant Tigray People's Liberation Front, or TPLF, party, and Getachew Reda, Tigray's interim regional president and Debretsion's deputy in the TPLF. But in the background lurks a potentially more explosive dynamic: the escalating rivalry between Ethiopia's federal government and Eritrea, which united in the war against Tigray in 2020-2022 but fell out over the peace deal that ended it. More than two years later, tensions between the two are spiking over Ethiopia's quest to end its status as the world's most-populous landlocked country. ...

War is looming once again in Tigray, a northern region of Ethiopia near the border with Eritrea. Political disputes are fragmenting the regional government and sparking warnings of a new crisis. Tigray has not yet recovered from a devastating war that ended in 2022. With aid cuts now worsening hunger and uncertainty, is it on the brink of another catastrophic conflict?

In this episode of The Horn, Alan is joined by Michael Woldemariam, associate professor at the University of Maryland's School of Public Policy, to discuss the risk of renewed war between Ethiopia and Eritrea amid rising regional tensions and a deepening political crisis in Tigray. They explore how relations between Addis Ababa and Asmara have deteriorated since the 2022 Pretoria Agreement, which ended the Tigray war, but notably excluded Eritrea. They delve into the rupture of Tigray's political leadership and how growing instability in the region has fuelled tensions between Ethiopia and Eritrea. They also discuss prospects for de-escalation to prevent another devastating war in the Horn of Africa.For more, check out the latest The Horn episodes with Michael: End of One War, Start of Another in Ethiopia and Eritrea's Long Bitter Feud with Ethiopia's Tigray as well as our Horn of Africa regional page.

Conflicted comes to the end of our Ethiopia series with an episode beginning at the fall of Emperor Haile Selassie in 1974, and charting the country's tumultuous course through the late 20th century. This was a time characterised by a brutality the country had not witnessed before, as the Communist military dictatorship, known as the Derg, wreaked havoc on the country. Ethiopia in the 70s and 80s was one dominated by horrifying episodes of mass death – from the Red Terror which engulfed the country in 1977 to 1978, to the terrible famine in the 1980s which caught the world's attention, birthing Live Aid and songs from Western Musicians to raise money, which would come to be so common (if later criticised) in the decades to come. It was also an era of Cold War intrigue, with Ethiopia thrust into wider geopolitical games involving the US and the USSR – even Cuba! – as well as warring with its neighbours and, eventually, with its own dictatorship.  Thomas and Aimen bring our discussion of the fascinating and fraught land of Ethiopia to a close with a tour de force, as they discuss all this and more, also setting up the context for the Tigray war which took place in Ethiopia in 2020 - 2022, with devastating consequences. And if you want to find out more about the Tigray War, we recently completed an episode for our Conflicted Community with journalist Martin Plaut, to explain the specifics of the conflict. New Conflicted Season 5 episodes will be coming every two weeks, but if you want to have your Conflicted fix every single week, then you'll have to join our Conflicted Community. Subscribers will get bonus episodes every other week, and can also join our Conflicted Community chatroom, where you can interact with fellow dearest listeners, discuss episodes past and future, get exclusive messages from Thomas and Aimen, ask future Q&A questions and so much more.

After two years of conflict in Ethiopia's Tigray Region, the 2022 Cessation of Hostilities Agreement (CoHA) finally put a stop to the fighting between the federal government and the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF).
