Wales reach Euro knockouts despite defeat to Italy
Wales have qualified for the last 16 of Euro 2020 despite losing 1-0 to Italy in Rome.Matteo Pessina scored the 39th-minute winner as Italy topped Group A with a 100 per cent record and equalled their national record of 30 games unbeaten.Wales were forced to play the last 35 minutes with 10 men after Ethan Ampadu was shown a straight red card for a late challenge on Federico Bernardeschi.Switzerland had Welsh hearts racing by establishing a 2-0 interval lead against Turkey in Baku and trimming Wales’ goal difference advantage.The Swiss eventually won in 3-1, but it was not enough to leapfrog Wales and their qualification hopes now reside on being one of the four best third-placed sides.Wales instead will head to Amsterdam to play the runners-up of Group B, most likely Denmark, Finland or Russia.
Residents started a blockade after authorities announced a border deal under which Baku will regain control of four formerly Azeri-populated villages in the area.

On April 18, the United States vetoed a United Nations
resolution that would have allowed Palestine
to become a full United Nations member. .
Associated Press reports that the
widely-supported resolution was backed
by 12 of 15 Security Council members. .
The United Kingdom and Switzerland
both abstained from the vote,
while the U.S. opposed the measure.
AP reports that Palestine's broad support reflects the
growing international concern for Palestinians facing

AP reports that Palestine's broad support reflects the

The resolution would have made Palestine
the 194th member of the United Nations. .
Deputy Ambassador Robert Wood stressed to the
Security Council that the U.S. veto of the resolution... .
... “does not reflect opposition to Palestinian statehood
but instead is an acknowledgment that it will only
come from direct negotiations between the parties.”.
Similarly, deputy State Department
spokesman Vedant Patel said that the U.S. has...
... “been very clear consistently that premature actions
in New York — even with the best intentions — will
not achieve statehood for the Palestinian people.”.
In response to the failed vote, Palestinian U.N.
Ambassador Riyad Mansour told the council that
the decision would not deter the Palestinian people.
The fact that this resolution did not
pass will not break our will and it
will not defeat our determination, Riyad Mansour, Palestinian U.N. Ambassador, via Associated Press.
We will not stop in our effort.
The state of Palestine is inevitable.
It is real. Perhaps they see it as
far away, but we see it as near, Riyad Mansour, Palestinian U.N. Ambassador, via Associated Press

International Court Rules Against, Switzerland for Climate-Related , Human Rights Violations.
On April 9, an international court in France
ruled that Switzerland's inability to address
the climate crisis was a violation of human rights.
CNN reports that the ruling represents
a landmark climate decree that
could have a global impact.
The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) ruled in favor
of over 2,000 Swiss women who argue that the government
has failed to take action to stop climate change.
The ECHR determined that there were "critical gaps"
in Switzerland's efforts to reduce emissions, citing
the government's failure to meet past climate goals. .
The court ruled that the country's failures amount
to a breach of the women's protection from , “the serious adverse effects of climate change
on lives, health, well-being and quality of life.".
CNN reports that the ruling marks
the first time the ECHR has made
an official ruling on climate litigation. .
Today’s rulings against Switzerland
sets a historic precedent that
applies to all European countries. , Gerry Liston, Lawyer at Global Legal Action Network, via CNN.
It means that all European
countries must urgently revise
their targets so that they are
science-based and aligned to
1.5 degrees. This is a massive
win for all generations, Gerry Liston, Lawyer at Global Legal Action Network, via CNN.
The ruling forces Switzerland to more rapidly reduce
the country's reliance on fossil fuels, which have
been identified as a main driver of climate change.
CNN reports that the ruling comes as the world
remains off course for reaching climate goals aimed at
cutting emissions and avoiding catastrophic warming.
