reut.rs/3TVi3bC
Quick Glance: Former US Ambassador Sentenced for Spying for Cuba
- Former US ambassador Manuel Rocha was sentenced to 15 years in prison after admitting to working as a secret agent for Cuba for decades.
- Rocha accepted the penalty and paid a $500,000 fine after pleading guilty to acting on behalf of a foreign government.
- The swift criminal case avoided a trial that would have revealed the extent of Rocha's assistance to Cuba while working for the US State Department for twenty years.
- The sophistication of Cuban intelligence services was highlighted as Rocha's double-crossing went undetected for years, demonstrating his secret meetings with Cuban operatives and provision of false information to US officials.

Colombia Expels Argentine Diplomats After Far-Right President Javier Milei Insults Leftist Leaders
democracynow.org/2024/3/29/headlines/colombia_expels_argentine_diplomats_after_far_right_president_javier_milei_insults_leftist_leaders
Quick Glance: Colombia Expels Argentine Diplomats Following Controversial Remarks by Milei About Petro
- In response to Argentine President Javier Milei labeling Colombian President Gustavo Petro as a 'terrorist,' 'murderer,' and 'communist' in an interview with CNN, Colombia ordered the expulsion of Argentine diplomats from their embassy in the Andean nation.
- According to Colombia's foreign ministry, the Argentine president's comments have undermined Colombia's trust and offended the dignity of President Petro, who was democratically elected.
- Following Milei's provocative comments, Colombia recalled its ambassador to Argentina earlier this year. Petro, who is Colombia's first leftist president, has a background as a former member of the long-demobilized M-19 guerrilla movement.
- In addition to his criticism of Petro, the Libertarian Milei also targeted other regional leaders in excerpts of the interview, including Mexico's Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.

New research finds no conclusive evidence of brain injury in Havana syndrome cases
wionews.com/world/new-research-finds-no-conclusive-evidence-of-brain-injury-in-havana-syndrome-cases-701645
Quick Glance: Study Finds No Brain Injuries in 'Havana Syndrome' Patients
- A five-year study by the National Institutes of Health revealed no brain injuries among U.S. diplomats and government employees suffering from mysterious health problems previously known as 'Havana syndrome.'
- While the study did not provide an explanation for the symptoms, it found no significant differences in brain volume, structure, or cognitive tests between the affected individuals and healthy government workers.
- Approximately 28% of Havana syndrome cases were diagnosed with a balance problem called 'persistent postural-perceptual dizziness,' linked to inner-ear issues and severe stress.
- The results indicate that there is no evidence that a foreign power or external phenomenon has caused persistent or detectable pathophysiologic changes that could explain the symptoms of Havana syndrome.
