Summary

With an unfinished war in Iran – which is also unpopular at home – President Donald Trump is in Beijing this week looking for a big political win. But it’s China that holds many of the cards in this complex relationship. Also: today’s stories, including how the Make America Healthy Again movement and President Trump’s hold on the Republican party may depend on how GOP Senator Bill Cassidy fares in Louisiana's primary; why France is trying to bolster its fading influence in Africa; and how libraries are reinventing themselves as foundational spaces for teaching democracy. Join the Monitor's Christa Case Bryant for today's news.
