My wife and I recently finally got around to watching Chernobyl. Fine performances by Stellan Skarsgård, Emily Watson, and especially Jared Harris. If you haven’t seen it, do yourself a favor and do so. Highly recommended.

China Eliminates Tariffs on Africa to Outmaneuver Trump
African countries are finding it harder to export to the U.S. since President Trump returned to the White House with a long list of tariffs. But China sees their struggle as an opportunity.
Since May 1, Beijing has removed tariffs on all goods from 53 of 54 African nations in an effort to win business and influence across the continent. Everything from wine to sesame seeds and wool has been entering China tariff-free from everywhere except tiny Eswatini, which maintains diplomatic ties with Taiwan.
Analysts say the move could push Africa’s population of more than a billion people and vast mineral resources further into China’s orbit.
