By Jordi Bou

November 1, 2023 - November 30, 2023 - Events in November include the COP28 climate conference, crucial elections in Argentina and the Netherlands, the meeting between U.S. President Joe Biden and Chinese leader Xi Jinping, and the release of Ridley Scott’s epic Napoleon.

Nov 1, Pakistan: Islamabad has ordered all illegal immigrants, including 1.73 million Afghan asylum
seekers, to leave the country voluntarily or face forcible expulsion after this date.

Nov 11-17, U.S.: The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum in San Francisco could provide an opportunity for President Joe Biden to meet with Chinese leader Xi Jinping as the U.S. and China
try to manage their rocky relationship.

Nov 12, Germany: The country’s largest Hindu temple is set to open for worshippers this Diwali. Construction of the Sri Ganesha Temple in Berlin was funded entirely by donations.

Nov 18, UK: A bottle of The Macallan 1926, “the most sought-after Scotch whisky” is expected to fetch up to £1.2m ($1.4m) at Sotheby’s. An earlier bottle of the 96-year-old single malt sold for £1.5m in 2019, a record for any bottle of wine or spirit.

Nov 22, U.S.: Joaquin Phoenix plays Napoleon Bonaparte in director Ridley Scott’s epic, focusing on the swift and ruthless climb to power of the notorious Emperor of France.
