Trump threatens to fire Fed chairman
President Trump has threatened to fire US Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell if he does not step aside next month, raising concerns over central bank independence and market uncertainty.
Pakistan remains involved in diplomatic efforts over the US, Israel and Iran conflict, as questions grow over whether this could bring any economic benefit amid domestic pressure.
And travellers across several European airports are facing long delays due to the EU’s new entry and exit system, with some missing flights after hours in queues.
