Robert F. Kennedy Jr. declared the "war on protein is over" during an address to cattle ranchers in Nashville this week, while in Moscow, Russia identified three suspects in the shooting of a high-profile military figure. Meanwhile, U.S. news anchor Savannah Guthrie and her family pleaded for the safe return of their missing mother, and a youth-driven craze for U.S.-style fried chicken is transforming the British High Street. Additionally, a separatist push for a referendum on independence from Canada is gaining traction.
Kennedy's remarks, made during a "fireside chat" with National Cattlemen's Beef Association (NCBA) president Buck Wehrbein, highlighted the importance of meat protein, according to an HHS news release. The event took place as the FDA commissioner revealed updated dietary guidelines prioritizing protein, fruits, and vegetables, while urging Americans to cut back on ultra-processed foods, as reported by Fox News.
In Moscow, Russia announced the identification of three suspects involved in the shooting of Lt. Gen. Vladimir Alexeyev, which occurred in a residential block of flats in the north-western outskirts of the city. The primary suspect, Lyubomir Korba, a Ukrainian-born Russian citizen, allegedly arrived in Moscow in late December "on assignment from Ukrainian intelligence services to commit a terrorist attack," according to Russia's Investigations Committee (SK). Kyiv has denied any involvement, as reported by BBC World.
U.S. news anchor Savannah Guthrie and her family released a video pleading for the safe return of their mother, Nancy Guthrie, who disappeared from her home in Tucson, Arizona, last weekend. "We received your message, and we understand," Guthrie said in the video, flanked by her two siblings. "We beg you now to return our mother to us so that we can celebrate with her." Guthrie added, "This is the only way we will have peace," and stated, "This is very valuable to us - and we will pay," according to BBC World.
Across the Atlantic, the British High Street is experiencing a transformation driven by a youth-led craze for U.S.-style fried chicken. Chicken shops are opening at a faster rate than all other fast-food outlets, according to BBC Business. "I try to be healthy," said 19-year-old nursing student Sumayyah Zara Sillah, smiling with her order from Leicester takeaway Ragin' Bird. "But I like it so much."
Finally, in Canada, a separatist push for a referendum on independence from Canada is gaining traction, with secret meetings by unelected Albertans with U.S. officials being branded treasonous by some, according to The Guardian. First Nations protesters and allies gathered outside the legislature to oppose the Rally for Alberta Independence in Edmonton on May 3, 2025.
