But the foreboding that gripped Ukraine in the days before the invasion has long faded. Now, many people in Ukraine said that they had found strength in the shared sacrifice and [the collective struggle for survival](~/AAAAAQA~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~). Some have become accustomed to the air-raid sirens and warnings. One 30-year-old Ukrainian said those things had become a part of everyday life, “like brushing my teeth.” A global look: The U.S. tried to isolate Russia by imposing sweeping sanctions along with its Western partners. But the rest of the world has taken a more neutral approach to the war, including India and China, [as our graphic shows](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRl2luiP4QIAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tL2ludGVyYWN0aXZlLzIwMjMvMDIvMjMvd29ybGQvcnVzc2lhLXVrcmFpbmUtZ2VvcG9saXRpY3MuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD03JmVtYz1lZGl0X21iYWVfMjAyMzAyMjQmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9ODYxMTkmbmw9bW9ybmluZy1icmllZmluZyUzQS1hc2lhLXBhY2lmaWMtZWRpdGlvbiZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTI2MTE1JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0Qgpj9qLW92MuYVexUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~).

Voters are furious at the governing party over a shortage of new bank notes, and protests could disrupt voting in parts of the country. Lynsey Chutel, our Briefing writer based in Johannesburg, spoke with our West Africa bureau chief, Ruth Maclean, who is in Abuja to cover the election. Here’s what Ruth said about what’s at stake. “When I interviewed Peter Obi, one of the three main candidates, the other day, he described this as an ‘existential election.’ I think that’s how many Nigerians feel, particularly young Nigerians who were involved in the [EndSARS movement](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRl2luiP4QFAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjAvMTAvMTIvd29ybGQvYWZyaWNhL25pZ2VyaWEtcHJvdGVzdHMtcG9saWNlLXNhcnMuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD03JmVtYz1lZGl0X21iYWVfMjAyMzAyMjQmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9ODYxMTkmbmw9bW9ybmluZy1icmllZmluZyUzQS1hc2lhLXBhY2lmaWMtZWRpdGlvbiZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTI2MTE1JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0Qgpj9qLW92MuYVexUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~) a couple of years ago, protesting against police violence, but also against everything they saw going wrong in Nigeria. Many of them have left or are trying to leave the country. If their chosen candidate wins, maybe some will stay, or come back,” Ruth said. As populations in wealthy countries grow older, Africa’s median age is getting younger. In Nigeria, half of the population of more than 200 million is 18 and under. “If Nigeria is safe and prosperous, it brightens life for a whole generation of Africans,” Ruth said.

The changes were enacted by local governments, and highlight their struggle to recover from the costs of implementing the central government’s expensive “zero Covid” policies for nearly three years. One of the most immediate problems is that municipal insurance funds are running out of money. To free up cash, municipalities have started contributing much less to personal health accounts, the insurance that middle-class people use to pay for medicine and outpatient care. Seniors are most vulnerable to the changes, which include [higher costs and reduced benefits](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRl2luiP4QFAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjMvMDIvMjMvYnVzaW5lc3MvY2hpbmEtaGVhbHRoLWluc3VyYW5jZS1leHBsYWluZWQuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD03JmVtYz1lZGl0X21iYWVfMjAyMzAyMjQmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9ODYxMTkmbmw9bW9ybmluZy1icmllZmluZyUzQS1hc2lhLXBhY2lmaWMtZWRpdGlvbiZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTI2MTE1JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0Qgpj9qLW92MuYVexUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~). Protests have taken place in the northeastern city of Dalian, in Guangzhou, and in Wuhan in central China, where the Covid pandemic began at the end of 2019. Wuhan’s hospitals responded with an effective but expensive effort to contain the outbreak, and are now implementing some of the sharpest cuts to personal health accounts. Context: The cuts are a symptom of China’s overlapping economic struggles. The country is aging rapidly, and more retirees mean more health care needs. Yet the main source of municipal revenue has shriveled as real estate developers buy less public land because of a housing shakeout.
