Explanation:
1. The U.S. Senate Acquits Donald Trump of Impeachment Charges - A presidential impeachment trial typically ranks high on the year-end list of most significant news stories. However, it barely cracks the top ten in 2020. Along with Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton, Donald Trump began the year as the third president in American history to be impeached.
2. Belarusians Protest for Fair and Free Elections - The decline of democracy has been the subject of much discussion in recent years. The Belarusians do not appear to have received the message. Alexander Lukashenko, the president of Belarus and dubbed "Europe's last dictator," claimed on August 9 that he had won 80% of the vote in the country's presidential election and was therefore eligible for a sixth term.
3. Tensions Flare Between Iran and the United States - Even after four decades, tensions between Washington and Tehran remain strained. The leader of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' Quds Force, Qasem Soleimani, was killed in a U.S. drone strike on January 3 shortly after he arrived in Baghdad.
4. Oil Prices Tank - The year 2020 was not a good one for oil companies or producers. Oil demand was lowered as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, which sent economies all over the world into a tailspin. But there was more bad news for oil producers. Saudi Arabia proposed, during a meeting of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) in March, that members of OPEC and aligned oil-producing nations known as OPEC+ reduce their combined oil production by 1.5 million barrels per day to assist in stabilizing declining oil prices.
5. Abraham Accords Signed - The Middle East, of all places, provided a bright spot for the year 2020. The Trump administration made the announcement on August 13 that it had helped broker a deal in which the United Arab Emirates (UAE) recognized Israel in exchange for Israel's promise to forgo annexing territory in the West Bank at least for the time being. Bahrain said on September 11 that it would join the deal.
