Editorial: Data centers: opening with criteria

Unlike other issues where opinion is divided along clear partisan lines, the rejection of data centers knows no color, as they cause as much aversion among the most progressive voters as they do among angry conservatives. Democratic candidates and strategists captured the public unrest and turned it into one of their main campaign banners, with known success.

Editorial: Iberoamericana: summit of futility

The insubstantiality of the Ibero-American Summit that took place between Wednesday and Thursday in the Spanish capital was captured in the Madrid Declaration, an empty document written not to say, but to remain silent. Thus, the 20 points agreed upon by the 22 countries present omit to mention the silent genocide that Washington has perpetrated against the Cuban people since 1961, and with indescribable cruelty since Donald Trump's first arrival at the White House in 2017. To overcome the reluctance of the overwhelming majority of far-right rulers, the final declaration is limited to rejecting "coercion and the application of measures" that "hinder capacity of states to address their development needs and priorities.” Eager to ingratiate themselves with Trumpist imperialism – even with its weakened post-electoral version – and the so-called “Donroe Doctrine”, the Argentine Javier Milei, the Colombian Abelardo de la Espriella (represented by his vice president, José Manuel Restrepo), the Costa Rican Laura Fernández and the Paraguayan foreign minister Rubén Ramírez Lezcano, dissociated themselves from that lukewarm condemnation.
