Quick Glance: Putin Humorously Endorses Kamala Harris for Election

President Putin humorously stated his support for Kamala Harris after the U.S. Justice Department revealed a covert Russian influence campaign ahead of the elections.

The U.S. government accused state broadcaster RT of conducting a propaganda effort, while previous claims of Russian interference were dismissed as nonsense.

Putin noted Harris's infectious laugh and speculated that she might refrain from imposing further sanctions on Russia.

Russian authorities announced retaliatory measures against U.S. media, asserting that the U.S. actions contradict principles of media freedom.

A Venezuelan judge has issued an arrest warrant for former presidential candidate Edmundo González as part of a criminal investigation into the disputed July election results.

González faces accusations of conspiracy and document forgery after failing to respond to prosecutors three times.

He and the opposition claim that the election documents indicate he received significantly more votes than President Maduro, challenging the official outcome.

The Chilean government condemned the arrest warrant and called for respect for democratic principles and human rights in Venezuela.
