Friday, June 17, the “Weekly Photo” section from 20 Heures returns to the news of the week. This week, travel to the United States, Georgia, Mexico, China and the Vatican.

In the news of the week in photos, a very visible supermoon next to a Statue of Liberty looking her straight in the eye, in New York (United States). This is a very rare phenomenon, and it can only happen on full moon evenings, when the latter appears closest to the Earth. Always perched high, cyclists pedal on a glass tunnel in Georgia, reaching a diamond-shaped café, also made of glass. In fact, in Mexico and other countries, cyclists have taken to their bikes in their simplest form to campaign against car addiction.

In China, Chinese students were caught sleeping while resting after their sports. No sleeping quarters, just armchairs under their desks so they’ll be ready to study again once their siesta is over. The pope does not rest much, and he appeared tired in a photograph taken by a member of the Italian army. Finally, here are pandas that will make you smile. Quietly seated, they enjoy a biscuit in a bucolic setting. For them, life seems sweet and beautiful.
