Politics
What’s Happening?
U.S. President Donald Trump recently hosted Colombia’s President Gustavo Petro at the White House in Washington, marking their first in-person meeting after months of heated exchanges and disagreements. Earlier, Trump had publicly criticized Petro’s government over issues like drug trafficking and regional security, and at times the leaders clashed sharply in public statements. But during this meeting, both leaders took a calmer approach.
They discussed cooperation on combating illegal drugs, regional stability, and trade issues, and Trump described the meeting as positive and productive. Photos and messages shared afterward showed the two leaders smiling and engaging respectfully, signaling a step toward better diplomatic relations.
Why is it Important?
This matters because the United States and Colombia are long-time partners in Latin America, and their relationship affects regional security, drug policy, and trade. Tensions had risen earlier due to disagreements over drug production, accusations from both sides, and even threats of military action, which worried leaders in both countries.
By meeting and focusing on shared goals like fighting narcotics and discussing energy exports, Trump and Petro showed that even when countries disagree, leaders can choose to talk and work together. This kind of diplomacy helps reduce misunderstandings, build cooperation, and focus on practical solutions that could affect millions of people from public safety to international markets.

Pakistan’s Decision Raises Questions at the T20 World Cup
Sports
What’s Happening?
A big cricket story is developing ahead of the 2026 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup happening in India and Sri Lanka. The Pakistan national team announced that it will take part in the tournament, but it will not play its scheduled group match against India on February 15 in Colombo, Sri Lanka.
This announcement was shared on the government’s official social media account, and although Pakistan will play its other matches against teams like the Netherlands and the USA, the decision not to take the field against India has created confusion and debate in the cricket world.
Why is it Important?
This matters because the India vs Pakistan match is one of the most popular fixtures in cricket, watched by fans all over the world. Skipping the game could affect how the tournament points are counted, Pakistan would forfeit two points, giving India a win without playing and could also impact the mood and finances around the World Cup, since broadcasters and sponsors value these rivalries highly.
Cricket’s global organizer, the International Cricket Council (ICC), has warned Pakistan’s board (the PCB) that not playing could have long-term consequences and affect Pakistan’s standing in future events. Both teams are already in Sri Lanka preparing for their other matches, and cricket fans everywhere are watching closely to see if this situation is resolved before February 15.

OpenAI’s New Codex Desktop App Brings AI Into Your Everyday Apps
OpenAI’s New Codex Desktop App Brings AI Into Your Everyday Apps
Tech
What’s Happening?
OpenAI just launched a brand-new Codex desktop app, and it’s making AI smarter and more useful than before! While Codex has been known for helping people write code, this desktop version brings its AI helpers called “agents” into regular tools on your computer.
Think of it like having a super-smart assistant that understands what you’re doing and can jump in to help without needing to open a separate chatbot window. This move shows how AI is shifting from being just something programmers use to something anyone can benefit from in their daily digital life.
Why is it Important?
This matters because it signals a big step in how people interact with technology. Up until now, most AI tools worked inside one app or asked users to copy and paste text into a chatbot. With the new Codex desktop app, AI agents can work behind the scenes and help you wherever you are on your computer.
It also shows that AI is becoming less about writing code for programmers and more about making everyday digital life easier for everyone. As these assistants get better, they could change how we learn, work, and create almost like leveling up the way computers help us think and solve problems.

Archaeologists Unearth a 2,000-Year-Old Lost Basilica in Italy!
Archaeologists Unearth a 2,000-Year-Old Lost Basilica in Italy!
History
What’s Happening?
Archaeologists in Italy have made a thrilling discovery, they’ve uncovered the long-lost remains of an ancient basilica that was described more than 2,000 years ago by a Roman writer named Vitruvius. A basilica in ancient Rome was a big public building used for all kinds of important stuff, like meetings, legal trials, or civic gatherings, kind of like an old-school town hall crossed with a courthouse.
Using careful excavation digging, brushing, and studying the ground archaeologists finally found stone floors, walls, and other parts of the building buried under layers of earth near ancient Roman ruins. The shape and design matched what Vitruvius described over two millennia ago, solving a real archaeological mystery!
Why is it Important?
This matters because it gives historians and archaeologists a real, physical link to the ancient world, a place that people in the past actually walked through and used long before maps or photographs existed. Vitruvius was a Roman architect and writer whose work influenced builders for hundreds of years, so finding a building he wrote about confirms that his descriptions were accurate and helps historians see exactly how Roman public buildings were designed and used.
The discovery also helps us imagine what everyday life was like in ancient Roman towns not just in myths or books, but in real places with floors, walls, and spaces that people once saw and touched. For kids who love mysteries or time travel in books, this find is like uncovering a real-world historical treasure that brings history alive!
