Spania kaller tilbake ambassadøren etter at Argentinas Milei kaller statsministerens kone for 'korrupt'.
Spain recalled its ambassador to Buenos Aires for consultations on Sunday after Argentina's President Javier Milei made derogatory comments about Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez's wife during a far-right rally in Madrid.

Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares said he expected an apology from Milei.
Other ministers also condemned Milei's speech, in which he described socialism as "cursed… Les mer

Senatets demokrater tror ikke på Bidens dårlige meningsmålinger
Democratic senators who represent presidential battlegrounds agree with President Biden — polls showing him trailing former President Trump in those key states are wrong.Why it matters: The skepticism is especially notable because a number of Democrats from those states have a polling lead over their Republican opponents in pivotal Senate races.
"No, I do not think that they are accurate," Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.) told Axios. Her retirement has triggered one of the most competitive Senate races. Democrat Elissa Slotkin has been leading in early polls, even as Biden lags behind Trump."The polls showed that I was down when I entered my race. And polls didn't look that great for Angela Alsobrooks a couple weeks ago, but she won the primary heartedly," Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) told Axios.

Trump skjerper vaksinedebatten, retter fokus mot RFK Jr. i politisk manøvrering
In a strategic shift, former President Donald Trump is intensifying his rhetoric on vaccines, specifically targeting Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a notable figure in the vaccine skepticism movement. Trump, who once hailed the rapid development of COVID-19 vaccines under his administration as a monumental achievement, is now adjusting his stance to solidify his position among conservative voters. This move comes as Trump aims to distinguish his views from those of RFK Jr., amid speculation of Kennedy's potential influence on the vaccine debate within political circles.

Demokrater frykter at Biden vil miste Georgia
That’s the issue that we’ve got to fix,” Carter said at a Mediterranean restaurant in Sandy Springs, north of the Georgia capital, after a party meeting on Thursday night.
“Somebody needs to ring the bell that the house is on fire, and nobody’s ringing that bell.”
With less than six months to go before the November general election, Biden is racing to shore up and reboot the centre-left political base that helped him unseat Trump in 2020.
It is especially urgent in Georgia, which was crucial to Democrats at the last election when Biden won the state’s… Les mer

Kina viser frem robothunder bevæpnet med maskingevær
The Chinese military recently showed off numerous robot dogs outfitted with machine guns on their backs during the country's biggest-ever drill alongside Cambodian troops, as Agence France-Presse reports.
The terrifying gun-toting robodogs were part of a massive 15-day military exercise called "Golden Dragon" in a remote training center in central Cambodia and off the country's coast.
During the drill, journalists watched as staff took the robodogs for a walk — but reportedly never fired the machine guns strapped to their backs.
