This WSJ editorial is critical of the Obama administration's no-show at the march in Paris with millions of people and German chancellor Merkel alongside President Hollande, British prime minister Cameron, Spain's prime minister Rajoy, former president Sarkozy, Donald Tusk, head of the EU. With the far right parties likely to push for anti-immigration policies the European leaders are faced with a challenge to maintain the post war policies of openness and tolerance, bringing together leaders of all major European parties in a show of solidarity.

This editorial in the WSJ says Europe should plan for expanding its role in defense, because the U.S voters in the primaries for both political parties appear to be calling for less U.S. engagement in the world. It says Trump, Sanders, and Clinton voters are moving towards less engagement, and calling for the U.S. to spend less in overseas engagements, more at home. It points out that only Britain, Estonia, Greece, Poland and the U.S. spend the 2% of GDP on defense that is considered a requirement for NATO membership.

The French national assembly votes 551 to 6 with one abstention to extend for 3 months a national state of emergency imposed after the day of the Paris attacks in November 2015. Prime minister Manuel Valls says "the state of emergency, it's true, justifies certain temporary restrictions on liberties, but resorting to this gives us every chance to fully restore these liberties." Belgium is also taking strong action. The director of Carnegie Europe voices popular opinion when he says this is intended to regain some trust after the lax approach of Begian authorites, and lack of strong action in France in the past.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
