  • Cease-fire agreement in Gaza, Ukraine weapons package among initiatives Biden pressing to approve - Anadolu Ajans

The article from Anadolu Agency discusses how President Joe Biden, often referred to as a "lame duck" due to his limited time left in office, is pushing forward several major policy initiatives before the potential return of Donald Trump. Key points include Biden's efforts to advance a $118 billion bipartisan border security deal, which also involves aid to Ukraine and Israel, despite opposition from Trump and some Republicans. Additionally, Biden is focusing on environmental regulations, with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposing new rules to limit pollution from power plants and vehicles. These actions are seen as attempts to cement his legacy on climate change and immigration reform before the political landscape potentially shifts with Trump's influence. The article also touches on the political dynamics, noting that Trump's opposition to the border deal could complicate its passage, reflecting the broader tension between the current administration's agenda and the looming shadow of Trump's possible return.
