Indira fails in lawsuit against IGP over abducted daughter’s recovery, court says police didn’t neglect duties to find ex-husband

Overdue airport service charges: High Court to rule on MYAirline’s bid to dismiss RM17.7m Malaysia Airports suit on August 16Argentina’s President Javier Milei, on June 28, 2024, refused to apologise to his Brazilian counterpart, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, as the latter had demanded, and instead called him a ‘lefty’ with an ‘inflamed ego’.

“We must rise above these trivialities because the interests of Argentines and Brazilians are more important than the inflated ego of some little lefty,” Milei told the LN+ broadcaster when asked about Lula’s request. Milei has lashed out at numerous leftist leaders since taking office in December, insulting the Spanish prime minister and the presidents of Colombia, Venezuela, Mexico and Brazil.Lula did not say which comments he was referring to, but Milei branded him “corrupt” and a “communist” during his fiery election campaign.

Lula did not attend Milei’s inauguration in December and two men have not held any meetings. They greeted each other cordially at the G7 summit in Italy.Lula said this week that the two countries were very important to each other, and that it would not be Milei who creates “discord” in their relationship. — AFP
