I do not know if you share my impression that this year is moving forward. Today it ends in June, and from tomorrow we are entering the second semester of this fleeting 2025.
These are five main news about the American continent and international keys that should be properly informed.
We immediately go to the news.
LATIN AMERICA
1. Chile: Janett Jara, a communist obligation on the left to dwell on the overwhelming direction in Chile
Chilean left yesterday on Sunday defined his presidential letter for the November elections: Jannett Jara, the former Minister of Work and a Communist Party militant, who clearly imposed themselves in the main division of Chile, having received more than 60 % of the vote, exceeding the social Democrat Carolina Toha and the front Gonzalo Winter. His triumph is a milestone: for the first time from returning to democracy, the PC will lead the candidacy of the ruling party. With the less than expected participation (1.4 million voters), Jara acts as a candidate in a fragmented and unsuccessful sector who seeks to regroup against sustainable promotion of law, led by numbers such as Jose Antonio Casta and Evelyn Mattei. In her first speech as a candidate, she turned to her popular origin – “From Konhali to La Monesta”, Michelle Bachelet said and promised a campaign focused on social rights, economic growth, security of citizens and national sovereignty, in an attempt to recover with random and polarized citizenship. The right will not fulfill the primary. The presidential and legislative elections will be held on November 16, and, if necessary (most likely), on December 14, the second round will be held to determine the presidency.
2. Panama: Balance of the first year of the Government of Mulino, marked by reforms and tension that excite Panama
Jose Raul Mulino joined the presidency on July 1, 2024 with a firm and decisive style, albeit deprived of a solid political base and without a consolidated bench in the National Assembly. His roadmap was clear: to restore the state and confirm political control. Nevertheless, this firmness caused questions about the legitimacy of his management, since it regulates only 34 % of the electoral support and without the strength, which supports its solutions.
His internal leadership focused on controversial reform in the Social Security Fund (CSS). It was represented in November 2024 and approved in March 2025. The reform supported the retirement age, increased contributions and changed several articles of 51. Groups as Suntacs and Masters groups.
In the international arena, Mulino also caused disputes by signing a memorandum of understanding with the United States, which expands the military presence and guarantees preferential access to its ships on the channel. This decision, within the framework in which Trump’s return to the White House brought a threat to the sovereignty of the canal, further tense relations with China and caused internal criticism and growing perception of Washington’s dependence.
In the second year of the mandate, Mulino faces more demanding citizenship, a fragmented meeting and critical problems in economic, educational rights, labor rights and political structuring. The way forward is the expected difficult and probably marked with new protests. The designation of the new authorities of the legislative assembly is a key issue on which a magnifying glass must be put.
3. Columbia: former Lyuve infector was looking for the support of Trump and Rubio to abandon Petro
Former Foreign Minister of Colombia Alvaro Leiva tried to receive the support of figures from the Republican United States Party, including advisers close to Donald Trump and Senator Marco Rubio, to assist the dismissal of President Gustavo Petro. According to audio and evidence revealed by the country, Leiva claimed that he had legal and political tools for fulfilling the plan, which included the presidential continuity of the vice president of France Markes, whom he represented as a viable figure for an orderly transition. In his efforts, he also raised the creation of a “great national agreement”, which even considers a dialogue with armed actors, such as ELN and the Gulf clan. Vice President Marquez sharply stretched from any conspiracy and confirmed its institutional commitment. Although there was no course from the White House for this proposal, the revelation caused a strong contradiction in Colombia, with charges of conspiracy and caused for the trial of the former chancellor.
4. Argentina: Two sides of the country are launched: flights outside, but many do not arrive at the end of the month
Argentina Javier Miley represents the economy with two obviously opposite persons: although sectors with a high income level have intensive reactivation – reflected in 66 % growth of external tourism, the sale of new cars is 84 % higher and a boom in the market of real estate – the middle and low class are faced with serious restrictions, without reaching, reaching achievement, which reach 30 at 30 %that reach 7 %, which reach 7 %, which reach 7 %. 2021 -in addition to a noticeable deterioration in formalization of labor. This duality is also expressed in the consumer scheme: although the demand for long -term goods, such as cars and houses, is growing, the purchase of food, drinks and drugs falls; And in an increase in the consumption of bonus -class fuel compared to a decrease in cheaper diesel. Thus, Milei managed to tame inflation and re -activate the economy, but its influence is distributed deeply unevenly, emphasizing social gaps in Argentina.
5. Brazil: Bolsonaro mobilizes its belief: clamut from amnesty and pressure
Thousands of supporters of Jar Bolsonaro gathered this Sunday on Paulist Avenue to San Paulo in order to demand an “amnesty I” and express his support to the former president who faces a trial in the Supreme Federal Court for trying to attempt the coup and other crimes that could take him to jail up to 40 years. Under the atmosphere of nationalist fervor, with flags and yellow t -shirts, Bolsonaro condemned political persecution and asked for peace, while conservative leaders and gospel pastors accompanied him on the spot. Although the help was less than in previous mobilizers, the event indicated that the former entrepreneur still retains the mobilized base and wants to attract institutions in his defense.
These demonstrations occur at a time when the image of President Luis Inasio Lula and Silwa collapse in polls. According to Datafolha, its approval decreased at least 28 % in June, while disapproval reached 40 %, which was registered in April. The magnificent/Quaest Survey at the beginning of the month reveals a record disapproval of 57 % and approval of 40 %, which is the lowest point in this third mandate.
International key
1. Spain: Seville as an epicenter of global unity: a consensus obligation, despite the absence of the United States.
The IV International Conference on the Financing of the UN Development, which is held from June 30 to July 3 in Seville, led to the “commitment of Seville”, a political text, agreed on more than 190 countries in favor of multilaterality and reform of the United States, despite the refusal of the United States in accordance with its surveillance in the field of development, taxation, taxes and multi -formal dollars. General Secretary Antonio Butherers condemned that “financing is a development engine, and now it is drowning the engine,” and called the summit as a “wonderful success” against the global context of growing inequality. For their part, leaders such as King Felipe VI, Pedro Sanchez and Minister Manuel Albarez firmly protected the multilateral part and called for more fair financial and financial architecture with such politics as facilitating dishes, more contributions from the world north and specific goals, such as the action platform for action. Nevertheless, NGOs criticized the heat of the text – they pay special attention to a symbolic gesture, and not an effective road map – while the main problems, such as debt stability, tax justice and climatic financing. Thus, Seville built a reprint of versatility, waiting for a signed consensus in order to transfer to tangible obligations that support the sustainable development program. A great question about where the resources come from.
2. USA Press Israel to free the hostages and move to the world in gas
The Government of the United States, under the influence of the special messenger of Steve Witkoff and, with the direct support of Donald Trump, exerts strong pressure on the Prime Minister Netanyahu to accept the proposal for the ceasefire in a gas that allows almost 50 hostages who still remain in the hands of Hamas (25 are still alive and still 25 dead). In turn, Hamas requires the general withdrawal of the Israeli Gaza troops and the liberation of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners, in addition to the humanitarian control of the region, in order to transfer to the Arab intermediaries under the supervision of the United States. Netanyahu refuses to resign and sign the final termination, claiming that this will be equivalent to surrender. Meanwhile, the United States is planning a decisive conversation today in the White House between Vitkov and Advisor Ron Dermer and does not exclude that Trump himself calls in Netanyahu in order to resolve this crisis before Hulio ends.
3. Trump and its threats bend Canada’s hand: the “technological rate” raises a white flag ”
Canada, led by Prime Minister Mark Karni, announced the withdrawal of 3 % of the digital rate on the income of American technological giants – like Amazon, Apple and Google – which was supposed to enter into force on June 30. This measure will come after the threats of Donald Trump, which suspended trade negotiations, qualifying the tax as a “direct and oil attack” against the United States. And he warned with the introduction of new tariffs if Ottawa has been preserved. With the cancellation of the rate, both leaders agreed to resume conversations in order to close the new agreement until July 21 in accordance with the obligations adopted during the G7 summit. The diplomatic game, which confirms the real influence of Trump’s pressure and returns Canada to the negotiation table.
