The Parti québécois de Paul St-Pierre Plamondon won the Quebec elections on Monday night, with about 28% of the vote but without an absolute majority, complicating the implementation of its program.

The Liberal Party, a platform for the presidential candidacy of Flávio Bolsonaro, won 121 seats in the Chamber of Deputies and went from 15 to 28 seats in the Senate, resulting in the largest single party representation in both chambers in almost 40 years.

From student protests that began in French schools, to violent and subversive scenes that have been launched, events have evolved in more than two weeks and have provoked widespread political debate in the country. The protests began against the conditions of education, before they widened and accompanied by acts of violence condemned by the Government. However, some of these scenes appear to have exceeded France and spread to extreme right accounts, from the pro-Donald Trump community to anti-migration currents in Britain.

Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan agreed to deploy military forces and capabilities quickly into Saudi territory, in the first activation of the agreement they signed in August.
