From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.THE BOSNIAN peace plan was rejected by Muslims and Serbs yesterday, leaving the country's future in the hands of the United Nations Security Council, writes Michael Sheridan.
Lord Owen and Cyrus Vance, joint chairmen of the talks in Geneva, will tomorrow ask the UN to impose a solution on the warring sides. The deal drawn up by the negotiators on behalf of the UN and the European Community divides the country into 10 provinces.
As the five months of peace talks ended in deadlock, Sarajevo, the Bosnian capital, came under intense bombardment from Serbian guns. Outside the presidency building, a shell killed two people.
In Geneva, Lord Owen said: 'Time is not on our side and we cannot go on here. UN personnel have lost their lives fighting for these issues. We have brought it deliberately to a crunch.'
