13 Sept 23:10 Key points summarised by AI

Chinese President Xi Jinping hosted North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and Russia's Vladimir Putin at a grand Beijing parade, showcasing unity among allies against the West.
The event, marking 80 years since WWII's end, featured a massive display of China's military prowess, with Xi declaring China 'unstoppable' amid global choices of 'peace or war'.
The unprecedented gathering highlighted China's growing political influence and convening power, especially with Kim Jong Un's rare public appearance alongside two major world leaders.
The display drew criticism from former U.S. President Donald Trump, who accused the trio of conspiring against the United States, while no major Western dignitaries attended the parade.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
