Trump greeted with mixed cheers, boos during brief US Open appearance

President Donald Trump attended the US Open on Sunday and briefly stepped out from a luxury box to wave at a main court crowd mostly still arriving for the men's final. He drew mixed cheers and boos. Arthur Ashe stadium was only partially full and Trump's waves weren't announced beforehand. They were also brief enough so that some of those in attendance didn't notice them. The president attended as a guest of Rolex despite imposing steep tariffs on the Swiss watchmaker's home country, and organisers were seeking to keep booing of him from being seen on the TV broadcast. Trump has built the bulk of his second term's domestic travel around attending major sports events rather than hitting the road to make policy announcements or address the kind of large rallies he so relished as a candidate. Because of extra security screening, the final between second-seeded Carlos Alcaraz, a 22-year-old Spaniard, and No. 1 seed and defending champion Jannik Sinner, 24, of Italy, was pushed back ha

Bolsonaro backers rally before verdict as Lula asserts sovereignty

Tens of thousands of supporters of Brazil's former president Jair Bolsonaro took to the streets on Sunday, the country's Independence Day, to rally against the Supreme Court ahead of its verdict this week in their leader's alleged coup trial. On Saturday evening, President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva said Brazil will not accept foreign influence in its domestic affairs, in yet another reference to persistent criticism and sanctions imposed on his country by his American counterpart Donald Trump. In recent years, Bolsonaro's allies have turned September 7 into an annual show of political force. Lula sought to turn the focus of this year's Independence Day to sovereignty. Crowds dressed in yellow and green once again gathered in Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo and the capital Brasilia to back Bolsonaro, who is under house arrest ahead of his verdict. Their favourite target was Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, the rapporteur of the case. Bolsonaro is standing trial for allegedly ..

Modi great leader whether Trump says so or not: Fadnavis on foreign policy

Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Saturday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi is a great leader irrespective of whether US President Donald Trump says it or not, and added that India frames its own foreign policy, which cannot be dictated to it by any other country. His statement comes in the wake of Trump's praise of PM Modi. Trump on Friday said, "I'll always be friends with (Narendra) Modi, he's a great prime minister. He's great. I'll always be friends, but I just don't like what he's doing at this particular moment."

India described the US action as "unfair, unjustified and unreasonable" When asked about the US President's remarks, CM Fadnavis said, "Whether Trump says it or not, PM Modi is great. All world leaders feel that he is a great ...
