Britain's transformed political landscape, what Americans think of impeachment and more in our 'week in charts'
America’s 45th president now seems certain to become only the third to be impeached. On December 10th the House Judiciary Committee formally accused Donald Trump of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. Mr Trump seems equally sure to be acquitted in a trial before the Republican-dominated Senate. Ourargues that Mr Trump’s attempt to press Ukraine into investigating Joe Biden, his potential opponent in next year’s presidential election, warrant his removal.
America probably won’t change its president just yet. Argentina already has, via the ballot box. This week, whom he defeated in October’s election. Mr Macri inherited an economic mess from his predecessor, Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, who is not related to Alberto but is his vice-president. Mr Macri ultimately failed to clear it up and ended up negotiating a $57bn bail-out from the IMF, the fund’s biggest ever. The ensuing austerity sealed his electoral fate.
