Controversial Venezuela Official Named ‘Protector’ of Colombia Border State
Freddy Bernal, a controversial figure with ties to armed groups, has been appointed as 'Protector' of Venezuela's Táchira state, a region critical for contraband smuggling and drug trafficking. This move by the Maduro administration coincides with increased US pressure against the regime. Bernal's role will involve increased responsibility for border controls and collaboration with the Special Action Forces, a police unit known for violent repression. His appointment is seen as a strategy for political and social control over a volatile area, as well as a potential response to US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson's comments on the possibility of military-managed regime change in Venezuela.

The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir
John Bolton, in his forthcoming memoir 'The Room Where It Happened,' alleges that President Trump sought help from China's Xi Jinping to win re-election by buying more American farm products. Bolton claims Trump approved of hostility towards China from Democrats and linked agricultural purchases to his electoral success. He also accuses Trump of potential obstruction of justice regarding investigations into companies like ZTE and Halkbank. The Justice Department is suing to prevent the book's publication, citing classified information. US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer denies Bolton's account. The book details Trump's ignorance in foreign affairs, his underlings' poor service, and his inappropriate comments on various international and domestic issues.

Family of American on hunger strike in Egyptian prison calls for his release
Moustafa Kassem, an American-Egyptian dual citizen, is on a hunger strike in an Egyptian prison following his 15-year sentence in a mass trial. His family and legal team are urging Secretary of State Michael R. Pompeo to advocate for Kassem's release during his upcoming Cairo trip. Kassem was arrested in 2013 during a security crackdown and has been in prison since. Despite efforts by Vice President Mike Pence and former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, Kassem's health is declining due to the hunger strike. His case has been raised with the Egyptian government, and there is hope that Pompeo's visit will bring additional attention to his plight. The U.S. has continued to provide military aid to Egypt, despite human rights concerns.

End of TPS, 'a well-studied decision' says Ambassador Sison
U.S. Ambassador to Haiti Michele J. Sison stated that the decision to end Temporary Protection Status (TPS) for nearly 60,000 Haitians living in the U.S. was well-considered. The TPS was revoked by the Trump administration, with the expectation that affected Haitians will return to Haiti by July 2019. Sison highlighted changes in Haiti since the 2010 earthquake and 2016 Hurricane Matthew, and mentioned U.S. programs supporting job creation, health, agriculture, and education in Haiti. The documentary 'TPS' by Haitian journalist Valéry Numa reveals the fear among Haitians of returning to their country. Criticism of the decision comes from media, human rights organizations, and U.S. lawmakers, questioning the motives behind the TPS termination.

Mugabe, who had been under house arrest, cited the welfare of the people and the need for a peaceful power transfer as reasons for his resignation. His rule since 1980 was marked by human rights abuses and economic decline.

The FBI sees no evidence of 'sonic attacks' at the US embassy in Havana
The FBI has found no evidence of the alleged 'sonic attacks' that were reported last year at the US embassy in Havana. The issue has sparked a diplomatic dispute between those who believe US officials were victims of acoustic attacks and those who argue there is no evidence of such attacks. Senator Jeff Flake, a Republican, supports the latter position based on the FBI's inconclusive investigations. Despite the lack of evidence, figures like Senator Marco Rubio and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson continue to support the theory of an attack, which Cuba denies and the FBI cannot prove. The US embassy in Havana has been operating with minimal services since September, following the withdrawal of diplomats by the Trump administration after reports of health issues among staff.

To rebuild Iraq, invest in its children
Mosul, Iraq, symbolizes the future of the country post-ISIS, with its reconstruction being crucial for the millions of displaced children. The city's Old City has been particularly devastated, and while physical reconstruction is underway, there are significant challenges in addressing poverty, employment, and psychosocial issues. The U.S. played a major role in the offensive against ISIS but does not plan to contribute financially to Iraq's rebuilding, focusing instead on Afghanistan. The Kuwait International Conference for the Reconstruction of Iraq estimated the cost at over $88 billion. The success of Iraq's next generation depends on the investment in their reconstruction and well-being.
