What are the news on this month?

July is a month where Europe stops working. Or almost stops working. Everyone only thinks of holidays and where to find some sun and to rest. As it is important to rest, it is also important to know that a lot of countries go on on their lives as usual. For instance, in the US the White House is struggling to avoid default of payment in August if no agreement is reached by the Congress and the president. It is business as usual and it is a good thing to see that countries are working. Yesterday, a terrorist, a Norwegian, put a bomb in central Oslo, the capital and killed around 80 people in an island nearby. It is the worst catastrophe the country has seen since WWII. And Syrians are still demonstrating against their government and the president, who is a dictator like his father. Libya is still on war and no side is winning, at least yet. Europeans are struggling to help Greece, a country with the Euro and a phenomenal debt that could shatter the whole financial system. And there are plenty of other events happening in the world. Holidays? For some, probably but not for the majority.
