MADRID (AP) — Spain’s Parliament allowed its national legislators to use the country’s minority languages of Catalan, Basque and Galician for the first time on Tuesday.The reform of the linguistic policy of Spain’s lower chamber was a demand of Catalan separatist parties to support the appointment of a Socialist as the new Parliamentary Speaker last month following inconclusive national elections in July.The right to speak languages other than Spanish in the national Parliament is a long-held objective of smaller parties from the regions in Spain’s north that have bilingual populations.“(This change is) … to normalize something that is already common for citizens who speak a language other than Spanish,” said Socialist Party member José Ramón Besteiro, who alternated between Galician and Spanish to become the first lawmaker to take advantage of the modification.The Parliament provided simultaneous translation with earpieces for the 350 members of the chamber as wel...

Bangui, República Centroafricana (CNN) — En su último viaje a la República Centroafricana (RCA) el mes pasado, el exjefe del grupo Wagner Yevgeny Prigozhin visitó la Maison Russe, o la Casa Rusa, un centro cultural cerca de la embajada rusa en la capital, donde posó para selfies con sus lugartenientes y lugareños.El instituto, y sus diversas actividades, son un claro ejemplo de cómo el grupo mercenario se convirtió en un sustituto del Estado ruso en el país, y un símbolo de los retos a los que se enfrenta el presidente Vladimir Putin en su intento de recuperar el control.Desde el intento de golpe de Estado de Prigozhin en junio de 2023 y su posterior muerte en un accidente aéreo en las afueras de Moscú apenas dos meses después, Rusia ha estado inmersa en una lucha de alto riesgo para centralizar su imperio en el continente africano, que incluye miles de combatientes, una amplia gama de participaciones empresariales y múltiples iniciativas de poder blando como esta.Una bandera ...
