US kills 14 in strikes on four alleged drug boats in Pacific
WASHINGTON — US forces have killed 14 people in strikes on four alleged drug boats in the Pacific, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said.Mexico's navy says it is still searching for a lone survivor approximately 400 miles (643km) from the Pacific coastal city of Acapulco.It is the latest in a series of attacks on boats the US says have been carrying drugs in both the Pacific and Caribbean.The latest strikes in the eastern Pacific, which Hegseth said happened on Monday at the direction of President Donald Trump, mark an escalation in what it has cast as a campaign to stop narcotics from entering the US.The strikes have drawn condemnation in the region and experts have questioned their legality.

Trump does not rule out seeking third term 
WASHINGTON — US President Donald Trump has not ruled out the possibility of seeking a third term for the White House, saying he would "love to do it".But Trump rejected the possibility of running for vice-president in 2028 — an idea floated by some supporters as a way for him to circumvent the US constitution that bars the president from running for a third term.Speaking to reporters during his trip to Asia, Trump described the idea as "too cute" and said it "wouldn't be right".It is unclear what method he would use to run again. Last week, former Trump strategist Steve Bannon said that a "plan" was in place to secure the 79-year-old president another term.Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One on his way to Japan from Malaysia, Trump said that while he would "be allowed" to...

Argentina's President Javier Milei waves at supporters as he arrived to vote in Buenos Aires on October 26, 2025
Milei’s party cruises to victory in Argentina midterms 
BUENOS AIRES — Argentine President Javier Milei’s party won a decisive victory in the midterm legislative elections, giving him a clear mandate to continue his radical economic reforms despite widespread dissatisfaction with his severe austerity policies.The outcome offers relief to Milei, whose approval ratings had declined recently, and is also expected to be welcomed by US President Donald Trump, whose administration faced criticism for granting Argentina a substantial financial bailout.Analysts said the stronger-than-expected showing could reflect fear of renewed economic turmoil if the country abandoned Milei’s austerity policies which, while slashing subsidies long relied on by many Argentines, have succeeded in drastically slowing inflation.“Argentines showed that they...
