Description
There are chaotic scenes on Capitol Hill as hundreds of Trump supporters storm Congress, forcing both Republican and Democrat lawmakers to flee the chamber during a session to confirm Joe Biden as the next president. Congress was eventually reconvened after one woman died from an alleged police gunshot wound and three others passed away due to medical emergencies. This, as Democrats secured a second Georgia Senate seat and control of Congress following the victory of John Ossoff in run-off elections. In Hong Kong, online retailers Alibaba and Tencent see shares fall on reports that the U.S. is mulling whether to add them to a Chinese firm blacklist which already include three of the country’s biggest telcos. And in Europe, Moderna becomes the second Covid vaccine to gain approval by Brussels. The bloc has ordered 160m doses.
