Read on for today's agenda below prepared by David (thank you very much). - Retired US Diplomat to 5 different nations  David Hunter shares his knowledge, passion, interest, and experience.

1)President Biden Attending NATO Summit in Vilnius. Lithuania: There is a Head of States Meeting of NATO being held in the Baltic country of Lithuania this week, July 11-12th. It is occurring right next door to Russia, as Lithuania shares a border with Russia's Kaliningrad 'enclave'. Obviously Lithuania feels threatened by what Russia is doing in Ukraine. And it was once under the control of the USSR dictatorship, then known as the 'Lithuanian SSR'. What is the significance of holding a NATO Summit meeting in Vilnius?

2)Why Is US Supplying 'Cluster Bombs' to Ukraine?: The Biden Administration just announced it will begin supplying 'cluster bombs' to Ukraine for its war against Russian troops in the Donbass. But over 100 countries have banned use of this type munition, and many are criticizing the US for taking this step. What is a cluster bomb and why are we giving them to Ukraine now?

3)Growing Migrant Problem in Africa and Europe: More than 10,000 black Africans are allegedly in Sfax, a town in Tunisia? on boarder of Libya. They are trying to transit across to Western Europe. But Tunisia is now cracking down, and deporting them in mass to the border of Libya. Those mostly black deportees are being left on the border w/ no food or water. Libya says it cannot allow them in, since it already has 700,000 illegal immigrants and can't handle any more. What is going on?

4)Ghislain Maxwell Has Served One Year In Federal Prison in Florida: Back on June 28th, 2022, Ghislaine Maxwell, the notorious British socialite assistant and accomplice  to child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, was sentenced to 20 years prison at the US Federal Corrections Institute, in Tallahassee Fl. But just 9 days later, July 7, 2022, her lawyers appealed her conviction. Her appeal hearing is coming up later this month. Will she go free?
