Europeans are putting to use the lessons from the pandemic’s initial phase: the need to wear masks and practice social distancing, the importance of testing and tracing, the critical advantages of reacting nimbly and locally. All of those measures are intended to prevent the kind of national lockdowns that crippled economies this year. “We are in a living-with-the-virus phase,” said Roberto Speranza, the health minister of Italy, the first country in Europe to impose a national lockdown. The European path differs from that of many Asian countries, including China and South Korea, where even one case [can set off an aggressive campaign of testing, tracing and isolation](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhQ8ILP0T8aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wNi8xNS93b3JsZC9hc2lhL2JlaWppbmctY29yb25hdmlydXMtb3V0YnJlYWsuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD03JmVtYz1lZGl0X01CQUVfcF8yMDIwMDkxNSZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0yMjIxOSZubD1tb3JuaW5nLWJyaWVmaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VjdGlvbj10b3BOZXdzJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MzgyMDYmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCgA9Cz1hXxiLheZSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~).

The White House signing ceremony on Tuesday. Doug Mills/The New York Times A diplomatic win, and political gift, for Trump President Trump hosted Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel at the White House on Tuesday along with the foreign ministers of the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain for [the signing of new diplomatic accords between the countries.](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhQ8ILP4Q0AWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjAvMDkvMTUvdXMvcG9saXRpY3MvdHJ1bXAtaXNyYWVsLXBlYWNlLWVtaXJhdGVzLWJhaHJhaW4uaHRtbD9hY3Rpb249Y2xpY2smY2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NyZlbWM9ZWRpdF9NQkFFX3BfMjAyMDA5MTUmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MjIyMTkmbW9kdWxlPVRvcCtTdG9yaWVzJm5sPW1vcm5pbmctYnJpZWZpbmcmcGd0eXBlPUhvbWVwYWdlJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VjdGlvbj10b3BOZXdzJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MzgyMDYmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCgA9Cz1hXxiLheZSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~) While many analysts give Mr. Trump some credit for helping to broker the agreements, they called the talk of peace overblown. Israel, they said, has long been moving into a de facto alliance with the Sunni Arab states of the Persian Gulf, in common cause against Shiite Iran.

If you have 5 minutes, this is worth it Australia’s fire season: ‘There is no normal’ Residents burn organic fuel and other hazards before the start of the fire season. Matthew Abbott for The New York Times After last year’s blazes burned through 46 million acres — a chunk of Australia that’s larger than Syria — brick chimneys are all that remains of many homes. Animals appear in smaller numbers. Hillsides are covered with trees as dead as matchsticks, and even the rivers are choking with ash.

Homeowners are turning to Aboriginal fire experts for preventive burning. Land clearing has become more common than barbecues. “Climate change, it’s real, mate,” said a marine scientist. “There is no returning to normal; there is no normal.

And now for the Back Story on … A different take on U.S. immigration Much of the recent debate over immigration to the United States has been about how to reduce it. Matthew Yglesias offers a different idea: Increase immigration — by a lot. His new book, “[One Billion Americans,](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhQ8ILP4QKAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjAvMDkvMTUvYm9va3MvcmV2aWV3L29uZS1iaWxsaW9uLWFtZXJpY2Fucy1tYXR0aGV3LXlnbGVzaWFzLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NyZlbWM9ZWRpdF9NQkFFX3BfMjAyMDA5MTUmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MjIyMTkmbmw9bW9ybmluZy1icmllZmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlY3Rpb249YmFja1N0b3J5JnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MzgyMDYmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCgA9Cz1hXxiLheZSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~)” argues for radically increasing the country’s population through immigration and a higher birthrate. Mr. Yglesias points out that even if all of the new Americans lived in the continental U.S., it would still have less than half the population density of Germany. And only if the U.S. vastly increases its population can it hope to keep pace with the growing power of authoritarian China, he argues. Matthew Yglesias argues that many of America’s problems could be solved by growing the population. Moshe Zusman There are plenty of reasons to question how the U.S. might absorb so many new citizens, but Mr. Yglesias makes a provocative case for a new kind of American greatness. “Rather than being paralyzed by racial panic, ecopessimism, or paranoia about the loss of parking spaces,” he writes, “America should aspire to be the greatest nation on earth.” Listen: Mr. Yglesias discusses his book in [this podcast interview](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhQ8ILP4QhAWh0dHBzOi8vbWVkaXVtLmNvbS9jb252ZXJzYXRpb25zLXdpdGgtdHlsZXIvbWF0dC15Z2xlc2lhcy10eWxlci1jb3dlbi1lY29ub21pY3Mtb25lLW1pbGxpb24tYW1lcmljYW5zLWU1ZDI5ODMyOTA0OD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD03JmVtYz1lZGl0X01CQUVfcF8yMDIwMDkxNSZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0yMjIxOSZubD1tb3JuaW5nLWJyaWVmaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VjdGlvbj1iYWNrU3Rvcnkmc2VnbWVudF9pZD0zODIwNiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKAD0LPWFfGIuF5lIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA).
