Before becoming President, Donald Trump pulled out of a plan to license a tower in the nation of Georgia. Now, many there fear being “forgotten and abandoned” by the US. Also: the first legal commercial export from Cuba arrives in the US; a former Wall Street man comes up with a plan to save an Indonesian forest; farmers in Vermont are growing a new crop and its worth more than its weight in gold; a family in Mexico is trafficking in donuts; and we find out what country makes the fastest roller coasters (hint: not the US).
