Your support helps us to tell the story

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 UN is counting on British and US support to start talks between the opposed communities in Cyprus this year. The divided island was the main subject of high-level talks in London on Wednesday night between Kofi Annan, the new head of the UN and Malcolm Rifkind, the British Foreign Secretary. Sir David Hannay, the UK Special Representative for Cyprus and Sir Kieran Prendergast, who is replacing Marrack Goulding as the UN's head of political affairs, were also present.
