Donald Trump will have the last word in the electoral debate with Joe Biden

The former president of the United States and Republican pre-candidate Donald Trump will have the last word in next week’s electoral debate in Atlanta (Georgia), with the current president, Democrat Joe Biden, the CNN network, organizer of the event, announced on Thursday.

After the launch of a coin on the air, Biden’s campaign won the right to choose the position of the podium in the debate or the order of the final statements, and opted for the first option.

The Democrats asked Biden to debate from the right side of the television screen, while his rival Trump’s podium will be on the left side.

Then, Trump’s campaign asked the former president to pronounce the final statement of the debate, which means that Biden will be the first to finish his speech.

The debate, which will be broadcast on June 27 on CNN, will be the first of the two face-to-face televised broadcasts between Biden and Trump before the November 5 elections.

The debate will be in Atlanta, will last 90 minutes and will be moderated by CNN journalists Jake Tapper and Dana Bash.
There will be two commercial breaks during which campaign staff will not be able to interact with their candidate.

Biden and Trump’s teams have also accepted that the microphones are closed throughout the face-to-face except for the candidate to whom they are entitled to speak.

Nor will the contenders be allowed on the stage to accessories or previously written notes, although they will receive a pen, a notebook and a bottle of water.

Biden will spend the next few days at the residence of Camp David (Maryland), on the outskirts of Washington, to practice and be ready.

For his part, Trump has been preparing for a few weeks in meetings with some senators and other politicians that sound like the Republican’s vice-presidents.

It will be the first time that an active president and a former president face each other in an electoral debate.

It is also not common for the debate to be held in June, before the national conventions of both parties that make the candidacies official, but this year’s primaries were resolved in the spring.

The ABC network will organize the second and final presidential debate in September. The televised presidential debates have been part of the tradition of the United States in all electoral cycles since 1976.

Seven bodies found with signs of torture in Sinaloa

Mexican authorities discovered seven lifeless bodies on Wednesday, showing clear signs of torture, in the rural area of Culiacán, Sinaloa, just one day after the same number of bodies was found in several municipalities in the western state of Mexico.

Six of these seven victims were found along the side of the highway that connects Culiacán to Mazatlán, near Laguna de Canachi, according to local media reports, which also noted that messages addressed to a criminal group were found near the bodies.

This brings the total number of violent deaths in the region to seven within just 24 hours. On Tuesday, authorities reported more victims found in the municipalities of Culiacán, Elota, and Mazatlán.

Among the victims identified was a local cattle rancher named Ramón Velázquez Ontiveros, as well as a police officer from Mazatlán, who was killed by a motorcyclist outside his home in San Marcos.

Málaga paralyzed by new storm as torrential rains hit Spain

Thousands of people were evacuated and trains were suspended as torrential rains once again struck Spain on Wednesday, following the devastating floods that killed at least 223 people two weeks ago, most of them in the Valencia region.

The national meteorological agency (Aemet) issued a maximum, red-level alert for the Andalusian province of Málaga in the south, and for Tarragona in the northeast, due to the new DANA (isolated depression at high levels), also known as a cold drop.

The city of Málaga appeared to be the hardest hit by the rains, with more than 3,000 people evacuated from 1,000 homes near rivers, flooded streets, and the suspension of urban transport and train services to Madrid.

“Today Málaga is paralyzed,” said Andalusia’s regional president, Juan Manuel Moreno, to reporters. “I know it is a problem for citizens not being able to take their children to school or go to work, but after what we saw in Valencia, we need to ‘prevent’ and minimize the impact in terms of loss of life,” he added.

The storm also led to the postponement of a match between Spain and Poland in the Billie Jean King Cup women’s tennis competition, which was scheduled for Wednesday afternoon in Málaga.

Hezbollah launches explosive drone strike on Israel’s defense headquarters

The Lebanese Islamist movement Hezbollah claimed on Wednesday that it launched an attack with explosive drones against the Israeli army’s headquarters in Tel Aviv.

The Iran-backed organization reported in a statement that it had carried out “an aerial attack with a squadron of explosive drones” targeting the site that houses Israel’s main defense institutions.

Hezbollah later stated that it also fired a barrage of rockets at the Glilot military intelligence base in the suburbs of Tel Aviv.

The Israeli military indicated that “sirens sounded in several areas of northern and central Israel following the launch of projectiles from Lebanon.”

It later clarified that “five projectiles were identified over the territory, and some were intercepted.”
