Queen Elizabeth II remembered around the world

Sep 09, 2022, 08:11 PM

As bells tolled and gunshots rang across the United Kingdom to mark Queen Elizabeth II’s passing, the monarch's legacy was remembered across former colonies with a mixture of nostalgia, bitterness and indifference. We hear from reporters in Canada, India, Kenya and Ghana about the queen’s influence there. And a relatively new spyware known as Predator is at the center of a European wiretapping scandal that has led to several resignations of political leaders in Greece. The EU is scrambling to figure out how to regulate an industry that poses a growing threat to democracy. Also, European energy prices are sky high, and winter is coming. This week, EU leaders gathered to discuss emergency measures to keep energy costs down, including possible price caps and new taxes — but lawmakers are divided.
