Dear readers,
The fatal shooting on Wednesday of conservative activist Charlie Kirk revives grim memories for a country that has witnessed a wave of ideological crimes fueled by a deeply polarized society. President Trump has blamed the "radical left" for the crime and promised retribution.
Meanwhile, in Venezuela, President Nicolás Maduro is calling on citizens to enlist to defend the country in the event of a hypothetical incursion. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and other officials have posted ambiguous messages on social media suggesting something could be about to happen.
On the economic front, a battle is brewing between the U.S. and Mexico with an eye on the upcoming review of the USMCA free trade treaty. Trump has a long list of trade barriers he wants removed, and he is also hoping to secure wins in the political and immigration spheres.
This week we interviewed Russian mercenaries who are "lucky to be alive," the illustrator of Tolkien's works, and two retired American sopranos who are helping singers repair their damaged voices out of an Italian palazzo.
We hope you enjoy this selection of articles from EL PAÍS US Edition.
