The author claimed that the President of the United States had treated the possibility of using two cities as bait for the Iranians frivolously, despite writing that millions of people lived in them. He also criticized sectors of the right for relishing, as he said, in the eviction of an 87-year-old disabled woman, and argued that both attitudes responded to the same logic. #DerechosHumanos #JusticiaSocial #Política #US #IR (translated)

Paulo Figueiredo criticized John Kiriakou for comments about alleged CIA interference in Brazil. According to Figueiredo, Kiriakou confused a conversation involving Jair Bolsonaro with another involving Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, and the source of the accusation would be Lula himself. The author also accused the press of promoting this version and acting in favor of the Brazilian president. Figueiredo stated that Kiriakou worked for Sputnik, a Russian state media outlet, and noted that the producer of the channel in the United States received a mandate from the Department of Justice to register as a foreign agent. He also mentioned a report from The New Republic that described Kiriakou as a former CIA agent who became a Russian propagandist. According to Figueiredo, Kiriakou claimed to have contractually guaranteed independence but did not present the document when requested. The author further cited reports from Kiriakou that he claimed were later corrected. He said Kiriakou stated that Abu Zubaydah confessed after a simulated drowning application, but documents indicated at least 83 applications in one month. Figueiredo added that ABC corrected the report and that Kiriakou clarified he did not witness the procedure. He also stated that Kiriakou acknowledged as false a claim that Hillary Clinton arranged a $20 million payment to the Ecumenical Patriarchate, linked to the Ukrainian church. Figueiredo also mentioned that Kiriakou pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 30 months in prison for revealing the identity of a CIA undercover agent. Regarding Brazilian politics, he asserted that the PT party was using the allegation of foreign interference to attempt to annul the opposing coalition in the Supreme Federal Court. In contrast, he noted that Lula met, outside of the official agenda, with Nikolai Patrushev, advisor to Vladimir Putin and former head of the FSB, and that Patrushev visited the NAM Atlântico, Brazil's largest warship. For Figueiredo, the press did not give equivalent coverage to these connections and to Kiriakou's work for Sputnik. #CIA #Lula #Bolsonaro (translated)

Marco M.M. had written that, for the first time since 1966, no hurricane had formed in the northeastern Atlantic Ocean in September.

Eleonora Aloise told the story of the tennis player Yunchaokete Bu, born in 2002 in Xinjiang, in the Mongolian community of Bortala. According to the author, his original name was Buyunchaokete, written all together, because surnames were not used in the community. Aloise added that the ATP would have derived a surname by separating the name and that he was called Bu or Bert. In her story, Bu's father died before his birth, and after his mother remarried and moved away, the child was entrusted to his paternal grandparents. Pastors who did not know Mandarin and lived with limited means, the grandparents sent him to the SOS Children’s Village in Urumqi so that he could study. Aloise wrote that when Bu was five years old, the youth tennis coach Luo Yong arrived at the center to engage the kids in physical activities. In the post, she attributed the discovery of the boy's talent to Lu Yang: according to Aloise's words, Bu was neither the fastest nor the strongest, but the one who worked hardest. The coach then proposed that he transfer to his sports center in Huzhou, 3,000 kilometers from Bortala, and Bu agreed. Aloise described the journey as a series of coincidences and detours, evoking the legendary names of the region and comparing the opportunity Bu received to a letter from Hogwarts. She concluded by suggesting that his more suitable name could be Jangar, the protagonist of the local epic. #tennis #tennis #storia #sport (translated)

Barranquilla does not wait sitting down for progress to arrive: it goes out to seek it. That energy, its entrepreneurial vocation, and its ability to look at the world are part of the reasons why I decided to make it an alternate capital of the Republic and an alternate seat of the National Government. And a city that increases its weight in Colombia needs infrastructure to match. That's why the Nation and the District are joining efforts to accelerate the transformation of the Ernesto Cortissoz International Airport. The District will contribute $40 billion to invest in the terminal, modernize it, and address needs that have been pending for too long. Public resources must turn into results. I don't want us to be talking in a few months about how much money was committed, but showing what was done, what changed, and how the experience of passengers and workers improved. The Ernesto Cortissoz will continue to belong to the Nation, and the Civil Aeronautics will maintain the responsibilities that correspond to it. What we are doing is simple: adding capacities to execute faster and better. This airport is not just the air gateway to Barranquilla and Soledad: it is a strategic infrastructure for Atlántico, the Caribbean, and Colombia. We want more tourism, more companies, more investment, more trade, and a region increasingly connected with the world. Barranquilla is growing, and Colombia is growing with it. Today, more than ever, I stand firm for the Caribbean, firm for Barranquilla, and firm for the Homeland! Long live Christ the King! #Barranquilla #Infraestructura #CrecimientoColombiano (translated)
