Despite the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the escalation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the Biden administration's main focus is still on the U.S. election, and just as the U.S. election is tense, three more eye-catching news came from the United States.
First, the United States officially withdrew its troops from Niger.
According to a CNN report on the 10th, the Pentagon officially ordered this week that the United States fully withdraw its troops from Niger. It has been learned that the United States has tried to keep some soldiers in Niger through negotiations, but the French garrison has already fully withdrawn from Niger, and the Russian army has directly entered the US military base before the US troops have withdrawn.
In the face of Western countries, even in the face of the United States, Niger has behaved extremely toughly. In the context of cooperation with Russia, Niger has a rather "fearless" flavor, Niger now has no need for US troops, neither counts much on US support, nor is it afraid of US sanctions after the coup d'état.
Of course, whether Niger's U.S. troops are partially or fully withdrawn is not a good thing for Biden. Soon after Biden took office, the United States ushered in the dilemma of "US troops withdrawing from Afghanistan in embarrassment", and now, the US troops have been expelled from Niger, and the face of the United States has been further damaged, and the American people are afraid that Biden will inevitably be blamed for this.
Second, a black American soldier was suddenly killed by mistake.
According to CCTV news quoted by overseas networks on the 11th, on the 3rd of this month, the Florida police in the United States mistakenly killed an African American Air Force soldier, which once again aroused the anger of public opinion in the United States. On May 9, the U.S. police released a law enforcement video, and a familiar scene was staged again, the black soldier named Fortson was shot six times in his body, and he also said "I can't breathe", which reminded people of Floyd, a black man who was kneeling and killed by the U.S. police.
At present, the police officer involved has been suspended, and the local law enforcement department and the prosecutor's office in Florida are investigating the incident. As a black American, even becoming a soldier in the U.S. Army will live in this kind of uneasiness, no wonder the United States is outraged. If it is confirmed that the US police have mistakenly killed a black soldier in the US military, one cannot help but worry about whether the United States will cause a larger scale of chaos as a result.
At present, the occurrence of this incident is not necessarily a good thing for Biden. If the Democratic Party is dissatisfied with the American minorities because of its stance on Israel, if the black community also develops distrust of the Democratic Party, they may not switch to the Republican Party, but will their enthusiasm for voting be dampened?
How to deal with the shooting of a black soldier by the US police, Biden will have to be cautious next.
Third, Biden has turned up Trump's "black history" again.
Biden is in trouble at the moment, but he still needs to find ways to win the election, and Biden's methods are nothing more than two categories: 1, to promote himself, boast of his achievements, and promote his claims to please voters; 2. Belittle your opponent and elevate yourself.
According to a report by the Global Times on the 11th, on May 10, local time, US President Joe Biden attacked Trump again, laughing and saying that he hoped that Trump would also inject himself with a little bleach. Biden is playing with Trump's black history, clearly mocking Trump and trying to prove to voters that Trump is not worthy of being president.
At the moment, the Trump campaign has not responded to this, but Biden himself has made no less jokes, and Trump is likely to retaliate.
In short, the U.S. election is getting hotter and hotter, and in the showdown between Biden and Trump, unexpected or dramatic scenes will continue to be staged.
